- During the third quarter of 2026, management committed to a plan to sell the Company’s European business segment.
- We recorded a pre-tax charge of $342 million ( $342 million after taxes) for the impairment of the Europe business segment and a pre-tax gain of $67 million ( $67 million after taxes) which includes an expected cumulative foreign currency translation gain and other accumulated other comprehensive loss re lated to our Europe business segment, which will be recognized upon the sale of the business.
- The increase was primarily due to higher incentive compensation expense ($11 million) and the net impact of certain special items, including professional and legal fees primarily related to our plan to sell the Europe business ($3 million).

- The increase was primarily due to higher incentive compensation expense ($9 million), the result of a provision for credit losses related to outstanding customer receivables ($3 million) and the net impact of certain special items, including professional and legal fees primarily related to our plan to sell the Europe business ($7 million).
- Income (loss) from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 includes a net pre-tax charge of $342 million ( $342 million after taxes) for the impairment of the Europe business segment and a pre-tax gain of $67 million ( $67 million after taxes) which includes an expected cumulative foreign currency translation gain and other accumulated other comprehensive loss re lated to our Europe…
- Based upon our history of generating strong operating cash flow, we believe we will be able to meet our short-term liquidity needs.
- We believe we will meet known or reasonably likely future cash requirements through the combination of cash flows from operating activities, available cash balances and available borrowings through the issuance of third-party debt, as needed.
- Over that period, we spent approximately $99 million, or 5.4% of net sales, in maintenance, regulatory and reforestation capital expenditures, and approximately $57 million, or 3.1% of net sales, in high-return capital projects.
- Our annual maintenance, regulatory and reforestation capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of approximately $140 to $165 million per year (before inflation) for the next several years, which we believe will be sufficient to maintain our operations and productivity.
- In addition, we expect to spend approximately $105 million on high-return projects in 2026.
