Feb 19, 2026
Clearwater Paper Corporation (NYSE:CLW) is a prominent supplier of bleached paperboard in North America. The company recently reported its earnings for the fourth quarter of 2025, revealing a mixed financial performance. The company reported earnings per share of $2.39, which significantly exceeded the estimated loss of $0.48 per share.
However, it continues to navigate challenges related to pricing pressures and operational costs.The company reported revenue of approximately $386 million, slightly exceeding the estimated $383 million . This performance reflects flat year-over-year net sales, with higher volumes offset by lower pricing. Despite this, the company achieved net sales of $1.6 billion for the year, marking a 12% increase from 2024 . This growth was largely driven by a 14% increase in volumes, thanks to the full-year operation of the Augusta facility.
Clearwater Paper's financial metrics reveal further insights into its current state. The company has a trailing price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 11.32, though this reflects a complex picture given the full-year net loss from continuing operations . Additionally, the price-to-sales ratio is 0.19, indicating a relatively low valuation relative to sales . The enterprise value to sales ratio is 0.38, reflecting the market's valuation of the company's worth relative to its sales.
Despite these challenges, Clearwater Paper maintains a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.44, indicating a moderate level of debt compared to its equity . The current ratio stands at 2.10, suggesting that the company has more than twice the amount of current assets compared to its current liabilities, which points to good short-term financial health.
