Suzano Papel e Celulose SA ( (SUZ) ) just unveiled an update.

On February 10, 2026, Suzano S.A. announced that it will operate its market pulp assets at a production level approximately 3.5% below nominal annual capacity for the entire year of 2026. The move extends a previously disclosed reduction in operating rates from August 6, 2025, reflecting management’s view that bringing back marginal volumes would not generate adequate returns under current market conditions.

By choosing to keep output below full capacity, Suzano signals continued supply discipline in the global pulp market, which may support pricing and capital efficiency but could limit volume growth in the near term. The company emphasized that the decision aligns with its corporate governance practices and reaffirmed its commitment to transparency with shareholders, investors and the broader market.

The most recent analyst rating on (SUZ) stock is a Buy with a $13.40 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Suzano Papel e Celulose SA stock, see the SUZ Stock Forecast page.
