Iberpapel 1Q revenue down 8.44 per cent

Spanish Iberpapel's 1Q 2016 revenue amounted to Euro 53.67 million, down 8.44% from the 1Q 2015, while EBITDA came in at Euro 7.34 million, year-on-year growth of 33.47%.

This earnings performance reflects a stronger paper price environment in comparison with first-quarter 2015 sales prices, coupled with improved overall industrial efficiency at the Group level. These factors were further enhanced by lower energy costs.
