Via Dan Loeb and Third Point:
"Aided by these important NACB tailwinds, IP has multiple near?term catalysts. The most
immediate should come by the end of this month when the market learns if the industry’s
latest price increase has been officially sanctioned. Proceeds from post?merger asset sales
combined with IP’s robust pro forma free cash flow should complete IP’s multi?year
deleveraging, which has reduced debt by ~$10 billion over the last four years. With a
cleaner balance sheet and no opportunities for further acquisitions, we believe IP’s
consistent cash flows will be returned increasingly to shareholders through buybacks and
dividend increases. Even using stressed assumptions, IP should generate +$2.00 FCF per
share, and we expect the dividend will eventually rise to this level.
Finally, we are always keenly attuned to a company’s management team and its incentives.
In 2014, IP mandates the retirement of its CEO John Faraci. During his decade?long tenure as CEO, Faraci has almost single?handedly consolidated the NACB industry and by the end
of this year will have grown IP’s revenue by ~20% and EBITDA by more than 50%, while
cutting net debt by $5 billion. We expect Faraci to cement his impressive legacy by using
new IP’s balance sheet to repurchase shares, increase its dividend, and raise its stock price,
reflecting the company’s newfound strength."

By swallowing Temple-Inland, IP has become the 800 lb. gorilla in industrial packaging in the US. Only Rock-Tenn is close, and is a distant second. add IP's international growth, and it's positioned to continue growth and earnings for years.

Paper prices are rising and the acquisition of Temple-Inland
Recs
Low valuation with solid earnings growth ahead. While paper may be losing ground in newspapers, magazines, books, etc. it's as important as ever when it comes to shipping and containerboard.

Their boxes are strong and their books are, too!

Boring business with solid potential

I admit, I'm riding Cramer's coattails on this one, but the shift toward corrugated products and international expansion, plus a nice dividend and low multiple, I think the downside risk is minimal. Upside potential attractive.

Gross over payment for temple. Plus the big risk of the bank fraud lawsuit.

International Paper aggressively going global. Joint venture in Russia and India - fast growth here. And finally has ROIC that matches my expection.

Cheap valuation, just raised their diividend. Easily beat expectations with latest earnings release.

Paper, and paper products are not going anywhere, they will always be a staple of our society in some form or another. provided IP can keep out of environmental trouble this stock should continue to perform well for quite a while. at least until graphine yields us transparent viewers and launches us into the sci-fi realm

The stock has been beaten down too much. They have managed to keep accounts receivable and inventory in line with growth. Certainly better than competitors that are more highly rated.

Big into cardboard, when manufacturing picks up products are shipped in cardboard.

with the acquisition of weyerhauser's recycling and packaging, as a paper company I believe it has a better chance of growing then most.
