GreenFirst Forest Products entered into a $30 million term loan under the Softwood Lumber Program announced by the Government of Canada. The financing was arranged with the company’s banking partner, BMO, and is intended to support liquidity and ongoing operations amid continued market volatility in the North American lumber sector.
The term loan enhances GreenFirst’s financial flexibility and provides additional runway as the company continues to navigate challenging lumber market conditions while executing on its operational and strategic priorities.
“This financing under the federal Softwood Lumber Program strengthens our balance sheet and provides important liquidity during a difficult period for the industry,” Joël Fournier, CEO of GreenFirst, said. “We appreciate the continued support of the Government of Canada and BMO as we work to position GreenFirst for long-term stability and value creation.”
