The main question: the share price moved −9.1% in a year while yearly earnings per share moved −541.3%. The difference came from the market paying a higher multiple. ## What is the International Paper share price today? International Paper Company's share price was $35.12 at the close on 3 November 2026. It has been falling for 10 weeks. That is 5.7% below its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $30 and $49, and at that close it sat 26% of the way up from that low. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, and it has been behind for 9 weeks running. Over the last 10 years the share price moved −18% while the S&P 500 moved +255%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. It was last ahead over 13 weeks in the week of 4 September 2026. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does International Paper pay? International Paper Company paid $1.85 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.46 for Jun 2026. At today's price of $35.12 that is a yield of 5.27%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast. ## Which stock lists is International Paper on?

## Is International Paper profitable? International Paper Company posted a net loss of $12.0 M in the Jun 2026 quarter. The full FY25 year was a loss of $3.5 B. That loss is 0.2% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $75.0 M. 5 of the last 9 reported quarters were loss-making. Jun 2026 profit was −$12.0 M, −116.0% on a year earlier. For the full year, FY25 profit was −$3.5 B (−731.2% on the year before). ## How much revenue does International Paper make, and is it growing? International Paper Company reported $6.0 B of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, −2.2% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 4 years it has grown 5.1% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $23.6 B. The last four reported quarters add to $24.2 B. The quarterly figures for FY23 do not add up to the full-year total on file, so those quarters are left out of the charts and sums. FY25 revenue was $23.6 B, +49.3% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +30.2% on average, against 5.1% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. ## How much of every $100 of sales does International Paper keep? International Paper Company's operating margin was 2.3% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 1.7 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between 5.1% and 9.2%. The latest quarter is below every full year in that period. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −1.7 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −0.4 points. So the drop came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales. ## Is International Paper's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 242% of International Paper Company's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $1.7 B of operating cash against −$3.5 B of profit. After $1.9 B of spending on assets, free cash was −$159 M: it spent more than its operations brought in. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does International Paper's cash go? International Paper Company does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent $3.9 B on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 5.5% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $3.9 B over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is International Paper's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? International Paper Company's P/E is 8.9×, in the middle of its own history: higher than 65% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 8.7×, over 1 year of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved −541.3% while the price moved −9.1%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. In short: the multiple is high against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the International Paper business getting better or worse? International Paper Company's business trend cannot be read yet. There are fewer than eight usable quarters of growth figures, so there is not enough history to read the trend. This is based on 5 quarters of 1 measure, with some gaps. Why it matters: with too little history, we say so rather than guess a direction. One or more growth lines have an extreme jump caused by comparing with a near-zero or loss-making quarter. Those jumps are capped before reading and drawn at the edge of the chart, so one odd quarter does not decide the result. The return figures here are yearly, not quarterly. They show level and direction only; they can support the growth lines but never decide the reading alone. There are fewer than eight usable quarters, so this page does not guess a direction from so little history. ## How much does International Paper earn on its capital? International Paper Company earned a ROE of −24% in FY25. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 3.4 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a −14.9% net margin and 0.62× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a −14.9% net margin × 0.62× asset turnover × 2.56× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ −23.6% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 4.0% − 7.4% = −3.4 percentage points. The 7.4% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. The 4.0% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at 6.4%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does International Paper have too much debt? International Paper Company has total debt of $9.9 B against shareholder equity of $14.5 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.69× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.65 in FY21 to 0.71 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the International Paper shareholding pattern? 8.9% of International Paper Company's tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so some traders are betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 8.3 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is International Paper from balance-sheet trouble? For International Paper Company, the Z-score is 1.44. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is in the danger zone. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 1.44 is inside the danger zone, so the balance sheet is a real risk. ## How does International Paper rank in its industry? 39.4 out of 100, rank 13 of 19 in Packaging & Containers, with 64% of the evidence available. International Paper Company scores 39.4 out of 100 against the 19 companies it is compared with in Packaging & Containers, ranking 13. The evidence is balanced: no factor stands out, so another reported quarter is needed before the picture is clearer. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 18.5 + 5.2 + 11.2 + 4.5 = 39.4. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is International Paper compared with? International Paper ranks 13 of 19 Packaging & Containers companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 39.4 out of 100. 1.

Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.

Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, for 9 weeks running (as of 3 November 2026). ### Will International Paper's stock price go up?

Its P/E of 8.9× is higher than 65% of its own last 1 years (as of 3 November 2026). ### Does International Paper have too much debt? International Paper Company has a moderate amount of debt: its debt is 0.77× its equity. A year-by-year history of its borrowings is not in our data, so this uses the latest reading. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page (as of 3 November 2026). ### Is International Paper's profit real cash? Yes, over the last 3 years, 242% of International Paper Company's reported profit came in as cash from operations. The latest year was lower at -48%, so the trend is worth watching. In FY25, operating cash was $1.7 B against reported profit of −$3.5 B. Most of that cash then goes into building new capacity. These are yearly figures (as of 3 November 2026). ### Where is International Paper in its business cycle? International Paper Company's FY25 operating margin was 5.1%, against a 5-year range of 5.1% to 9.2%: the low end of its own range, which is often where recoveries start. The latest quarter was 2.3%. Comparing margins with a company's own long history is a good way to see where it is in its cycle (as of 3 November 2026). ### What could break the International Paper story?
