The continued rise in the prices of wood raw materials, the negative market development, especially for CTMP pulp produced in Rottneros Mill, and a weaker USD, have had a negative impact on the Rottneros Group's financial performance in the first quarter of 2025.

The company thus expects a weaker result compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, when EBIT amounted to SEK -28 million. As a consequence of the weak development, the Group's ongoing focus on cost efficiencies has been further intensified.

The company's report for the first quarter will be published on April 29, 2025.
