Transformation Progress: International Paper is making significant progress on its transformation plan, especially in North America, with aggressive cost-cutting and operational initiatives showing up in results.
EBITDA & Margin Growth: Adjusted EBITDA in North America is up 40% year-to-date versus 2024, with a 370 basis point margin expansion; company-wide Q3 EBITDA improved 28% sequentially, with margin up about 300 basis points.
Challenging Macro Conditions: Both North America and EMEA continue to face weak demand, soft consumer sentiment, and market headwinds, leading to lower shipment growth assumptions for 2025.
Cost Actions & Facility Closures: The company has closed additional mills and exited nonstrategic businesses, including Savannah and Riceboro, and is outsourcing IT services for further efficiency.
Guidance & Targets Updated: 2025 targets now call for $24 billion in net sales, $3 billion adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow between -$100 million and -$300 million; 2027 EBITDA target adjusted to $5 billion due to persistent market softness.
Market Share Gains: North America box shipments grew 1% YoY in September, with outperformance expected to continue into Q4 and 2026, beating industry averages.
EMEA Restructuring: EMEA is earlier in its transformation, facing soft demand and negative price trends; major cost initiatives and plant closures are underway, with further benefits expected in 2026 and beyond.
