Cascades' near-term outlook provided with fourth quarter 2020 results on February 25, 2021, reflected the best information available at the time and the Company's estimates regarding operational performance for the period. The Company would like to highlight the following changes seen in certain market factors that will impact this outlook:

  • Raw material cost inflation in fibre prices in North America and Europe in March1 that is above raw material pricing headwinds detailed in the Company's previous outlook. Specifically, a US$10/s.t. increase in OCC (Old Corrugated Containers #11) average index price reported in the U.S. Northeast region, and price increases of €40/tonne3 to €55/tonne3 reported by RISI for several European markets.

  • A more pronounced easing of retail consumer tissue buying levels than previously expected driven by a combination of customer inventory management that began in mid-February, and continued demand variations related to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. Sequential retail tissue volumes will also reflect the impact of inclement weather during the quarter, most notably in the Southern United States, which resulted in approximately 5 days of lost production in one of the Corporation's Southern U.S. tissue plants.

  • Weather, along with higher gas prices, have contributed to higher overall transportation costs on a sequential basis across our business segments, most notably in the U.S.
  • 1 Source : RISI – Old Corrugated Containers (OCC #11), FOB, OBM, published U.S. Northeast average. RISI – 1.05 Old Corrugated Containers, averages published for France & Italy.
