Research Alert: CFRA Raises Opinion On International Paper Company To Sell From Strong Sell

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:After Q1 earnings, we keep our 12-month target price at $26. This is based on an EV/EBITDA of 6.7x our 2026 EBITDA estimate - one standard deviation (1.3x) below IP's five-year average of 8.0x. We lower our 2026 EPS view to $1.83 from $1.92 and keep our 2027 EPS view at $2.99. IP reported mixed Q1 results that beat EPS expectations ($0.15 vs. $0.14 consensus) but missed on revenue ($5.97B vs. $6.01B), prompting the company to lower its full-year 2026 EBITDA guidance to $3.2B-$3.5B from prior targets. North America was revised to $2.35B-$2.5B and EMEA to $900M-$1.0B. The company expects a significant second-half improvement of $650M in North America driven by pricing flow-through ($50/ton net increases), seasonal volume recovery, cost initiatives, and normalization of maintenance outages, while EMEA faces near-term margin compression before recovering as energy-driven paper price increases (EUR100/ton) flow through to packaging contracts with a three- to six-month lag.

Research Alert: Ip Q1 2026: Mixed Operational Progress Amid Strategic Emea Separation Plans

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:IP's Q1 2026 results showed mixed progress with adjusted operating earnings of $81M improving modestly from the prior year, though net sales of $5.97B declined 0.6% sequentially and adjusted EBITDA of $677M fell both sequentially and annually. Segment performance revealed divergent trends, with PS NA operating profit of $248M rising 74.6% annually but declining 22.3% sequentially, while PS EMEA continued generating $51M losses despite higher volumes. Management's plan to separate EMEA operations within 12-15 months represents a significant strategic pivot, in our view. Full-year adjusted EBITDA guidance of $3.20B-$3.50B reflects ongoing transformation costs and operational challenges. CEO Silvernail acknowledged persistent reliability issues, emphasizing cost and cash flow management as improvements remain works in progress. We believe execution risks during this transformation may continue impacting performance as the company establishes two independent entities.
