** Shares in Finnish forestry firm Stora Enso STERV.HE are up about 4% after it posted a Q1 print that was a beat on the profit line

** Its Q1 adjusted EBIT came to EUR 159 million ($186.78 million) vs. the EUR 128.5 million estimated in Vara Research consensus

** "Despite a slight overshoot, the result was practically completely in line with our forecasts, but clearly exceeded the consensus expectation that had decreased before the report," Inderes said in a note

** The broker added the subdued outlook dampens the Q1 consensus beat
