Mercer International Inc. reported weak results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and disclosed substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Second‑quarter revenues were $460,278 thousand, with a net loss of $75,978 thousand; six‑month revenues were $949,582 thousand and the net loss was $127,974 thousand, or $(1.91) per share.
Operating cash flow for the first half used $100,782 thousand, and cash and cash equivalents fell to $78,775 thousand (plus $5,000 thousand restricted cash). Current liabilities were $600,876 thousand, including $329,662 thousand of current debt as of June 30, 2026, and shareholders’ equity swung to a deficit of $97,974 thousand.
A key risk is refinancing: the C$160.0 million Canadian revolving credit facility maturing in January 2027 and a €370.1 million German facility (reclassified as current due to an expected leverage covenant breach) are not projected to be covered by internally generated cash without refinancing or alternative funding. Management has engaged advisors and opened discussions with holders of the 2028 and 2029 senior notes and other stakeholders, but no outcome is assured.
Mercer International Inc. reported second quarter 2026 revenues of $460.3 million, roughly flat with a year earlier, but continued to post losses as high fiber costs and weak pulp pricing weighed on results. Operating loss was $58.974 million and Operating EBITDA was negative $21.0 million, including a $29.0 million non-cash inventory impairment. Net loss was $76.0 million, or $1.13 per share, an improvement from a $86.1 million loss in the prior-year quarter.
Through its “One Goal One Hundred” initiative the company realized $13.0 million of cost savings in the quarter and approximately $54.0 million since April 2025, targeting $100 million by year end. Liquidity as of June 30, 2026 totaled about $191.7 million, including $78.8 million of cash, while shareholders’ equity had shifted to a $97.974 million deficit.

The mass timber business reported a robust order book of approximately $151 million.
Mercer International Inc.’s largest disclosed shareholder group, led by Peter and Charles Kellogg and affiliated entities, filed Amendment No. 12 updating their ownership of common stock. The group may be deemed to beneficially own 26,950,672 Shares, or 40.25% of the 66,982,506 Shares outstanding.
Goose Creek Capital, Inc. is attributed 18,220,000 Shares, IAT Reinsurance Company Ltd. 11,920,000 Shares, and Harco National Insurance Company 6,217,000 Shares, all reported with shared voting and dispositive power. Peter Kellogg has sole voting and dispositive power over 8,730,672 Shares and shared power over the 18,220,000 Shares attributed to Goose Creek.
The amendment reflects Peter Kellogg’s sale of 100,005 Class A Voting Preferred shares of Goose Creek to Charles Kellogg, which closed on January 19, 2021, giving Charles indirect voting control over Goose Creek’s holdings. However, an oral family agreement grants Peter Kellogg exclusive authority over voting, holding, acquiring, and disposing of all family-controlled Shares. On June 1, 2026, Peter Kellogg also purchased 419,743 Shares in open market transactions at prices between $0.8984 and $0.91 per Share.
