Rayonier Advanced Materials Inc. (US75522E1082) stock closed at USD 41.91 on September 4, 2026, after a daily move of minus 1.02 percent, with intraday volume at 1,099,500 shares and a market cap of USD 10.74 billion.
Price action stays contained
The stock traded between USD 41.19 and USD 42.21 on September 4, 2026, while the 52-week range stretched from USD 29.28 to USD 59.19. That places the share price in the lower half of the annual band, even after a 6-month gain of 6.10 percent.
For investors, the key point is the gap between the current quotation and the wider valuation range. The stock is still below its 1-year high by USD 17.28.
Latest numbers

The comparison matters: revenue in Q2 FY26 was nearly USD 917 million, while the trailing revenue base is above USD 3.1 billion. That split points to a business that is still producing scale, but not enough to pull the stock out of its sideways pattern.
