Rhea-AI Summary

Mercer International Inc. (Nasdaq: MERC) announced an unexpected downtime of approximately 30 days at its Celgar mill in July 2020, in addition to a planned five-day maintenance. This results in a total of 52,000 ADMTs of production loss, primarily due to reduced fiber availability stemming from Covid-related sawmill curtailments in British Columbia. Compounding the issue are new stumpage charges and complex rules that have left harvested pulpwood unused in the forests. The company operates globally with significant production capacities in pulp and lumber.
