Revenue rose 24.3% year-on-year to \u20ac176.0 million ($205.5 million) while adjusted EBITDA increased 33.2% to \u20ac19.8 million. Softwood lumber revenue jumped 47.2% to \u20ac96.2 million, with EBITDA rising to \u20ac9.6 million from \u20ac2.2 million a year earlier. Production reached record levels, supported by the June acquisition of Iisveden Mets\u00e4, which expanded sawmill capacity by about 35%.<\/p>\n<p>Sweden\u2019s SCA reported net sales up 7% to SEK 10.5 billion (\u20ac932 million) and an EBITDA margin of 34.9% at SEK 3.7 billion (\u20ac329 million). Its wood segment performed strongly with net sales up 24% to SEK 3.2 billion (\u20ac285 million) and EBITDA up 35% to SEK 546 million (\u20ac49 million), driven by higher prices and deliveries of 1.09 million cubic metres, up 19% from a year earlier.<\/p>\n<p>Stora Enso increased sales by around 5% and agreed to divest about 175,000 hectares of Swedish forest, or 12.4% of its holdings, for roughly \u20ac900 million. CEO Hans Sohlstr\u00f6m said the company focused on efficiency, sourcing and cost control in response to difficult market conditions.<\/p>\n<p id=\"flourish-header-title\"><strong>Key performance indicator of six Nordic companies<\/strong><\/p>\n<table class=\"w-fit min-w-(--thread-content-width)\" style=\"height: 222px;\" width=\"922\" data-start=\"193\" data-end=\"1171\">\n<thead data-start=\"193\" data-end=\"317\">\n<tr data-start=\"193\" data-end=\"317\">\n<th data-start=\"193\" data-end=\"209\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Company<\/th>\n<th data-start=\"209\" data-end=\"225\" data-col-size=\"sm\">H1 2025 Sales<\/th>\n<th data-start=\"225\" data-end=\"246\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Sales Growth (YoY)<\/th>\n<th data-start=\"246\" data-end=\"263\" data-col-size=\"sm\">H1 2025 EBITDA<\/th>\n<th data-start=\"263\" data-end=\"279\" data-col-size=\"sm\">EBITDA Margin<\/th>\n<th data-start=\"279\" data-end=\"317\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Key Challenges<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody data-start=\"440\" data-end=\"1171\">\n<tr data-start=\"440\" data-end=\"561\">\n<td data-start=\"440\" data-end=\"456\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Koskisen<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"456\" data-end=\"472\">\u20ac176.0 mln<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"472\" data-end=\"491\">+24.3%<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"491\" data-end=\"508\">\u20ac19.9 mln<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"508\" data-end=\"524\">11.3%<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"524\" data-end=\"561\">Raw material costs<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"562\" data-end=\"683\">\n<td data-start=\"562\" data-end=\"578\" data-col-size=\"sm\">UPM<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"578\" data-end=\"594\">\u20ac5,046 mln<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"594\" data-end=\"613\">-3.0%<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"613\" data-end=\"630\">\u20ac678 mln<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"630\" data-end=\"646\">13.4%<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"646\" data-end=\"683\">Trade tensions, currency<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"684\" data-end=\"805\">\n<td data-start=\"684\" data-end=\"700\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Mets\u00e4 Group<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"700\" data-end=\"716\">\u20ac3,069 mln<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"716\" data-end=\"735\">+4.5%<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"735\" data-end=\"752\">~\u20ac580 mln*<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"752\" data-end=\"768\">~18.9%*<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"768\" data-end=\"805\">Wood costs, demand<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"806\" data-end=\"927\">\n<td data-start=\"806\" data-end=\"822\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Stora Enso<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"822\" data-end=\"838\">~\u20ac4,788 mln<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"838\" data-end=\"857\">+5.0%<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"857\" data-end=\"874\">~\u20ac520 mln*<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"874\" data-end=\"890\">~10.9%*<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"890\" data-end=\"927\">Market volatility<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"928\" data-end=\"1049\">\n<td data-start=\"928\" data-end=\"944\" data-col-size=\"sm\">SCA<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"944\" data-end=\"960\">\u20ac932 mln<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"960\" data-end=\"979\">+7.0%<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"979\" data-end=\"996\">\u20ac329 mln<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"996\" data-end=\"1012\">34.9%<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"1012\" data-end=\"1049\">Currency effects<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"1050\" data-end=\"1171\">\n<td data-start=\"1050\" data-end=\"1066\" data-col-size=\"sm\">S\u00f6dra<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"1066\" data-end=\"1082\">~\u20ac1,282 mln**<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"1082\" data-end=\"1101\">-2.0%<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"1101\" data-end=\"1118\">~\u20ac36 mln**<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"1118\" data-end=\"1134\">~2.8%**<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"sm\" data-start=\"1134\" data-end=\"1171\">Currency, maintenance<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Sweden\u2019s S\u00f6dra posted an operating loss of SEK 389 million (\u20ac35 million) in the second quarter, compared with a profit of SEK 398 million (\u20ac36 million) a year earlier. Net sales fell 4% to SEK 7.2 billion (\u20ac641 million), hit by exchange rate effects of more than SEK 580 million (\u20ac52 million) and maintenance shutdowns costing SEK 240 million (\u20ac21 million). \u201cThe second quarter was challenging,\u201d CEO Lotta Lyr\u00e5 said, citing global uncertainty, currency fluctuations and high raw material prices.<\/p>\n<p>Finland\u2019s UPM reported first-half sales of \u20ac5.05 billion, down 3% year-on-year, with comparable EBIT dropping 20% to \u20ac413 million.

The company has launched a \u20ac300 million savings and profit improvement programme.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Softwood lumber performance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Softwood lumber divisions showed resilience despite cost pressures. Koskisen delivered 197,200 cubic metres, up 41.4% year-on-year, while its new J\u00e4rvel\u00e4 sawmill moved toward its 450,000-cubic-metre capacity. The Iisveden Mets\u00e4 acquisition added about 140,000 cubic metres of spruce softwood lumber.<\/p>\n<p>S\u00f6dra\u2019s wood division reported operating profit of SEK 3 million (\u20ac0.3 million), down from SEK 128 million (\u20ac11 million) a year earlier, as higher saw log costs hit margins. The company\u2019s cross-laminated timber (CLT) business recorded growth despite weak construction demand.<\/p>\n<p>SCA\u2019s wood segment delivered strong volumes, supported by sawmills located close to its forest holdings in northern Sweden.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Outlook<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nordic timber companies expect the remainder of 2025 to remain difficult, with little relief from construction sector weakness or global trade uncertainty.
