Clearwater Paper: Utilization Recovery Is The Entire Bull Case
Clearwater Paper Corporation focuses on SBS paperboard for retail and foodservice packaging, maintaining a straightforward business model in a complex market. I previously rated CLW a Hold due to high debt, shrinking EBITDA, and inconsistent execution despite operational improvements. CLW shares have underperformed significantly, declining 44% while the S&P 500 rose 17% since my last coverage.
