About Sylvamo Corp
Source: Item 1 (Business) from the 10-K filed February 20, 2026. Description as filed by the company with the SEC.
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
OUR COMPANY
Sylvamo Corporation (the “Company” or “Sylvamo”, which may also be referred to as “we” or “us”) is a global uncoated papers company with a broad portfolio of top-tier brands and low-cost, large-scale paper mills located in and serving the most attractive geographies, including Europe, Latin America and North America, which are our business segments. We produce uncoated freesheet (“UFS”) for paper products such as cutsize and offset paper, as well as market pulp. With roots going back to 1898, we have a long history of offering premium quality papers to meet the needs of our customers and end-users. Our mills in North America and Latin America predominantly rank in the lowest quartile on global and regional UFS cost curves, and we believe our low-cost operations enable us to serve our customers with the highest quality products at attractive margins. Our industry-leading brands, known for their long-standing reputation in their respective markets for product quality and performance, allow us to maintain our long-term relationships with top-tier customers throughout economic cycles. Our international reach and strong positioning across retail, merchant and e-commerce channels optimally positions us to meet the paper needs of our end-users around the world. This also provides geographical diversification of our revenue and profits. From 2023 to 2025, on average, we generated 48% of our revenues and 28% of our Business Segment Operating Profit in Europe and Latin America. Each region in which we operate exhibits different supply and demand characteristics. Both Latin America and North America have strong profitability for the uncoated paper industry relative to other geographies. See Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Business Segment Results - Results of Operations for a definition of Business Segment Operating Profit.

COMPETITION
The markets in which we operate are highly competitive with well-established domestic and foreign manufacturers. For instance, in North America, the four largest manufacturers of UFS, including Sylvamo, represent approximately 80% of the total annual production capacity. As the use of electronic mediums and alternative products increases, and because paper production does not generally rely on proprietary processes, except for highly specialized papers or products, the areas into which Sylvamo sells its principal products are increasingly competitive. Furthermore, the level of competitive pressure Sylvamo may face is dependent, in part, upon exchange rates, particularly the rate between the U.S. dollar and the Euro and the U.S. dollar and the Brazilian real. Some of our competitors have shut down or converted mills or paper machines at their mills to linerboard, pulp and boxboard capacity, which reduced the supply of UFS and other printing papers.
MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION
Sylvamo sells products directly to end users and converters, as well as through agents, resellers and paper distributors.
DESCRIPTION OF PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS
The Company’s principal products are described in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
RAW MATERIALS
Raw materials essential to our businesses include wood fiber, chemicals, water and energy. Information about our sources and the availability to us of raw materials, particularly wood, the principal raw material from which our products are made, is included in
