RYAM starts 70 MW project as Rayonier Advanced Materials stock costs EUR 6.20
Published on 10/06/2026 at 08:12 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWSRayonier Advanced Materials (ISIN US75508B1044) was trading at EUR 6.20 at Lang & Schwarz on October 6, 2026 at 8:06 a.m. CEST, plus 0.16 percent versus the prior close of EUR 6.19. On September 30, 2026, the company announced that construction had started on a 70 MW biomass cogeneration project beside its Jesup, Georgia, facility, giving the stock a concrete operating catalyst.
70 MW project reaches construction
According to Rayonier Advanced Materials on September 30, 2026, Altamaha Green Energy is being developed with Albioma and the Beasley Group. The facility is expected to supply renewable electricity under a long-term agreement with Georgia Power and process steam to Jesup, with commercial operations expected in 2029.
RYAM expects to retain an initial 14.00 percent equity interest and has an option that could lift ownership to 16.00 percent. The project therefore links a future energy asset to the company's existing cellulose platform, while its capital-light structure limits the need for fresh project funding from RYAM.
Revenue improved, losses stayed material
For the quarter ended June 2026, revenue reached USD 376.14 million, up 10.60 percent from the year-ago period, according to Zacks. Earnings per share showed a USD 0.30 loss, compared with a USD 0.43 loss in the year-ago quarter, while revenue exceeded the consensus estimate of USD 357.50 million by 5.18 percent.
The operating picture remains uneven. A September 11, 2026 review by Yahoo Finance said the loss from continuing operations narrowed to USD 33.00 million from USD 81.00 million in the prior quarter, but Cellulose Specialties sales volume fell 23.00 percent year over year. The contrast leaves pricing gains competing with weaker volumes and elevated leverage.
