Welcome to our dedicated page for RAYONIER ADVANCED MATERIALS SEC filings (Ticker: RYAM), a comprehensive resource for investors and traders seeking official regulatory documents including 10-K annual reports, 10-Q quarterly earnings, 8-K material events, and insider trading forms.
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. Filing exhibits and material-event reports also record security registration details, governance changes and capital-structure information relevant to the company’s cellulose, pulp, paperboard and biomaterials operations.
Rayonier Advanced Materials Inc. is launching a formal strategic alternatives review and has changed its top leadership. President and CEO Scott M. Sutton resigned effective April 16, 2026. The Board created an interim Office of the Chief Executive Officer, led by four senior executives, with CFO Marcus J. Moeltner serving as interim principal executive officer.
The Board is exploring a wide range of potential strategic, business and financial options, including a possible sale of all or part of the Company, strategic investments, mergers or other business combinations, or continuing its standalone plan. The review follows unsolicited indications of interest. RYAM reported $1.5 billion of revenue in 2025. The Board has not set a timetable and cautions there is no assurance the process will result in any transaction.
Rayonier Advanced Materials issues its 2026 proxy statement for the May 13, 2026 annual meeting, outlining director elections, governance changes and executive pay design. The Board acknowledges that 2025 financial performance fell well short of expectations and that restoring sustainable profitability and cash flow is the immediate priority.
To reinforce accountability, the Board approved a 2026 annual incentive plan tied solely to EBITDA and free cash flow and continues to use non-GAAP metrics such as Adjusted EBITDA with reconciliations provided. For 2025, the company missed threshold Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Operating Cash Flow targets, so no annual cash incentives were funded despite achieving all three strategic objectives.
Stockholders are asked to elect three Class III directors (including new CEO Scott Sutton), approve amendments to declassify the Board and eliminate supermajority voting provisions, support Say‑on‑Pay, approve a French sub‑plan under the 2023 incentive plan, and ratify Grant Thornton as auditor. The proxy highlights strong governance features, including an independent Chair, 89% independent directors in 2025, majority voting, stock ownership requirements, anti‑hedging/pledging policies, robust succession planning and active shareholder engagement.
Rayonier Advanced Materials Inc ownership update: The Vanguard Group filed Amendment No. 11 to a Schedule 13G/A reporting 0 shares beneficially owned and 0% of the class following an internal realignment effective 01/12/2026. The amendment was signed on 03/27/2026.
The filing explains certain Vanguard subsidiaries now report ownership separately in accordance with SEC Release No. 34-39538; Vanguard states those subsidiaries pursue the same investment strategies previously used.
Rayonier Advanced Materials Inc. is asking stockholders to vote at its 2026 Annual Meeting on May 13, 2026. The Chair acknowledges that 2025 financial performance fell short and the Board prioritized restoring profitability and cash flow, linking 2026 annual incentives to EBITDA and free cash flow.
The Board completed a planned CEO transition, appointing Scott M. Sutton as President and CEO effective January 2026, and is proposing governance changes to declassify the Board and eliminate supermajority voting. The record date for voting is March 16, 2026.
