Bitget2026/10/29 10:04- West Fraser management commentary attributed weaker third-quarter 2026 earnings to lower Southern yellow pine lumber and OSB prices, alongside higher costs.
- Net loss widened to USD 80 million from USD 61 million in the previous quarter.
- Adjusted EBITDA fell to USD 38 million from USD 59 million, partly cushioned by higher spruce/pine/balsam fir pricing and inventory reserve releases.
