The stronger Canadian dollar reduced earnings by approximately $0.02 per diluted share in the fourth quarter when compared to the 3Q 2007. Commenting on the financial results, Raymond Royer, President and CEO said, “In the 4Q, our results were impacted by the unprecedented run-up in the value of the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar and by continued pressure on fiber, chemical and energy related costs. Nonetheless, we benefited from a better supply-demand balance in our system with reduced lack-of-order downtime, paper production in sync with our shipments and pricing momentum despite the seasonally slower period of the year.” Domtar produces of business papers, commercial printing and publication, technical and specialty papers.
