\n

One of Sweden's largest forest industry groups has its credit rating lowered by the credit rating agency Standard & Poor's, which, however, believes in a clearing soon again.<\/em><\/p>\n

The American credit rating agency Standard & Poor's (S&P) has lowered the credit rating for the forestry company SCA to BBB- from BBB with reference to seeing \"weak market conditions\".\u00a0It reports the newspaper Aff\u00e4rsv\u00e4rlden.<\/p>\n

S&P estimates that the market situation for SCA will lead to lower revenues and EBITDA for the company during 2020-2021 compared with 2019. It also expects a \"strained free operating cash flow for SCA from increased investments\".<\/p>\n

However, S&P considers the outlook for SCA to be stable as it considers that the company retains its strong market positions.\u00a0The closure of printing paper production at the factory in Ortviken, the investment in increased pulp production at the factory in \u00d6strand and a gradual recovery of sales prices are factors that S&P believes will raise SCA's profitability in the future.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
