IT Tech Packaging, Inc. (NYSE American: ITP) is a prominent holding company engaged in the production and distribution of paper products in China. Founded in 1996, the company operates primarily in Baoding and Xingtai within North China's Hebei Province, an industrial hub close to Beijing and Tianjin. IT Tech Packaging's core business segments are categorized into three main paper product lines: corrugating medium paper (CMP), offset printing paper, and tissue paper products. Additionally, the company produces digital photo paper and single-use face masks.
Corrugating medium paper, including both regular and light-weight CMP, forms the bulk of IT Tech Packaging’s portfolio, accounting for more than 90% of its revenue.

For instance, in the first half of 2023, the company reported a revenue increase of 5.37% year-over-year, amounting to approximately $49.81 million. This growth was primarily driven by increased sales volumes of CMP and offset printing paper, though the average selling price (ASP) of CMP declined. The company's gross profit for this period stood at $0.9 million.
IT Tech Packaging is actively pursuing new markets and channels to enhance profitability. For the third quarter of 2023, the company faced a significant revenue drop of 50.26% compared to the same period last year, largely attributed to reduced sales volumes and ASP of CMP. Nonetheless, the company is optimistic about future recovery, supported by policy initiatives aimed at boosting domestic demand and industrial economy. The company’s EBITDA for the third quarter was approximately $1.69 million.
In response to market conditions, IT Tech Packaging plans to focus on cost reductions, optimizing the raw material structure, and exploring new products to capture greater market share. The company is also committed to maintaining environmental sustainability by using recycled paper for most of its products. IT Tech Packaging’s strategic location positions it favorably to serve one of China's largest markets for paper products consumption.
