"This is a bittersweet moment for the company," said Arsen Kitch, president and CEO of Clearwater Paper. He congratulated the Tissue team for creating a great company and producing excellent outcomes. Its debt will be paid off and its balance sheet will be strengthened with the sales profits. In order to generate long-term value for its shareholders, the company plans to expand and diversify its paperboard business, Kitch continued.

The business reported $644 million in net sales and $6 million in net income from total operations, or $0.35 per diluted share during Q3 this year. A new authorization to buy back $100 million worth of shares was authorized by the company's board of directors.
