Stora Enso today announced updated comparative financial figures reflecting changes to its segment reporting structure, effective January 1, 2026.
The updated figures restate the Group’s 2025 financial performance to align with its new reporting framework, introduced to better reflect the company’s strategic focus and operational structure.
New Reporting Structure
Effective January 1, 2026, Stora Enso’s reportable segments are:
Consumer Packaging
Integrated Packaging
Biomaterials
Other
These changes are designed to enhance transparency and align reporting with the company’s focus on renewable materials and packaging solutions.
Consumer Packaging combines cartonboard and foodservice & liquid board businesses
Integrated Packaging integrates containerboard and packaging solutions
Biomaterials continues as a standalone segment
Other includes wood & energy, forest assets, and group functions
Discontinued and Reallocated Segments
As part of the restructuring:
The Wood Products and Forest segments have been discontinued as separate reporting units
Northern European wood products operations have been integrated into packaging and biomaterials segments
Swedish forest assets and certain wood operations are now reported under “Other”
Additionally:
Forestry-related associated companies and energy assets are now allocated across segments based on consumption
The Growth business unit has been reclassified under “Other”
Restated Financial Highlights (2025)
Under the new structure:
Total sales remained unchanged at EUR 9.33 billion
Q4 2025 sales totaled EUR 2.25 billion
Adjusted EBITDA for FY2025 was EUR 1.14 billion
Segment-level highlights (FY2025):
Consumer Packaging: EUR 3.69 billion

The restatement does not impact the Group’s total financial results but reallocates performance across segments for improved comparability.
Strategic Rationale
The updated reporting structure reflects Stora Enso’s broader transformation strategy:
Strengthening leadership in renewable packaging and biomaterials
Driving operational synergies across integrated business areas
Improving decision-making transparency for investors and stakeholders
The company previously announced that the new structure would support long-term growth, margin expansion, and capital efficiency.
