April 25 (Reuters) - Svenska Cellulosa Aktiebolaget SCA SCAb.ST:

SCA Q1 EBIT SEK 1,119 MILLION

SCA Q1 EBITDA MARGIN 32%

SCA Q1 EPS SEK 1.14

SCA Q1 EBITDA SEK 1,651 MILLION

SCA Q1 SALES SEK 5,161 MILLION

SUPPLY OF WOOD RAW MATERIAL TO SCA'S INDUSTRIES WAS STABLE DURING QUARTER

LIMITED SUPPLY OF WOOD RAW MATERIAL TOGETHER WITH HIGH DEMAND HAS, HOWEVER, LED TO A GRADUAL INCREASE IN PRICES FOR BOTH SAWLOGS AND PULPWOOD

DEMAND FOR SOLID BIOFUELS WAS SEASONALLY HIGHER COMPARED WITH PRECEDING QUARTER, BUT WAS NEGATIVELY IMPACTED BY MILD WINTER VERSUS YEAR AGO

MARKET FOR LIQUID BIOFUELS REMAINED WEAK DUE TO LOW BLENDING REQUIREMENTS IN SWEDEN COMBINED WITH INCREASED IMPORTS FROM CHINA

LEASEHOLD BUSINESS IN WIND POWER WAS STABLE

NO PLANNED MAINTENANCE STOPS WERE CARRIED OUT IN Q1
