Clearwater Paper Corporation, a Delaware corporation, is scheduled to present at the RBC Capital Markets’ Global Industrials Conference on September 9, 2015 and the UBS Global Chemical and Paper and Forest Products Conference on September 10, 2015. The Company is furnishing the investor presentation material attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K, which management of the Company will present at or use in connection with these conferences.
The investor presentation material includes an updated outlook for Q3 2015 from that provided by the Company on July 30, 2015. The Company updated slides 12, 28 and 29 to reflect the expected impact of weaker paperboard backlogs and price declines in lower grade paperboard product segments in Q3 than previously expected as well as electrical disruptions at the Company’s Cypress Bend, Arkansas facility, and a corresponding narrowing of the Company’s expected Q3 Adjusted EBITDA, from a range of $62 million to $70 million, to a range of $62 million to $66 million.
The information furnished in this Form 8-K, including the exhibit attached, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
