West Fraser Timber reported a weak first quarter of 2026, swinging to a net loss as U.S. softwood lumber duties and tariffs heavily weighed on results. Sales were $1,334 million, down from $1,459 million a year earlier, reflecting softer pricing, especially in engineered wood products.
The company posted a net loss of $188 million versus earnings of $42 million in Q1‑25, with basic EPS at $(2.40). Adjusted EBITDA fell to $(66 million) from $195 million. Export duties, net, and tariffs surged to $158 million, including non‑cash export duty charges of $73 million for a higher preliminary countervailing duty rate and $41 million from updated antidumping assessment estimates, plus a $45 million adverse interest adjustment on duty deposits.
The Lumber segment recorded an operating loss of $137 million, affected by these duties and a temporary shutdown after a fire at the Blue Ridge mill. NA Engineered Wood Products posted a $58 million loss despite modest OSB price improvement, while Europe EWP was near break‑even. Cash used in operations was $170 million, ending with $81 million in cash, $203 million drawn on revolving credit facilities, and $300 million of term debt outstanding.
West Fraser Timber Co. Ltd. reported that shareholders cast 69,106,612 Common and Class B Common share votes at the annual general and special meeting, representing 88.26% of all outstanding voting shares. This indicates very strong participation.

West Fraser Timber outlines upcoming first quarter 2026 results, duty impacts and operational changes. The company will hold a conference call on April 30, 2026 to discuss Q1 2026 results.
The US Department of Commerce’s preliminary seventh administrative review rates would reduce West Fraser’s combined softwood lumber cash deposit rate from 26.47% to 20.70%. The company expects a $73 million non-cash export duty charge in Q1 2026 tied to a higher preliminary countervailing duty rate of 15.93% for 2024, plus an additional $41 million non-cash export duty charge from revised estimates across all review periods and incremental interest expense. A $15 million anti-dumping duty refund is expected in 2026.
