Rayonier Advanced Materials Inc. filings document the regulatory record of a Delaware operating company with common stock listed on the New York Stock Exchange under RYAM. Its Form 8-K filings cover operating results, financial-condition disclosures, Regulation FD updates, project and capital-allocation decisions, executive departures, board changes and compensatory arrangements.
The company’s proxy materials describe board oversight, stockholder meeting matters, director nominees, executive compensation design, succession planning and incentive metrics tied to operating performance and cash flow.

Rayonier Advanced Materials Inc. reported second-quarter 2026 net sales of $376 million, up 18% from the first quarter and 11% from the prior-year quarter. Net loss and loss from continuing operations were $33 million, or $(0.49) per diluted share, including a $13 million non-cash asset impairment.
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations rose to $40 million from $8 million in the first quarter and $28 million a year earlier, driven mainly by higher pricing and improved performance in High Purity Cellulose, partially offset by a larger operating loss in Paperboard & High Yield Pulp.
