IP Ranks #1 in Forest and Paper Products

PRESS RELEASE

STAMFORD, CT—International Paper has once again been named by Fortune magazine as the No. 1 company for the Forest and Paper Products sector in Fortune's annual report of "America's Most Admired Companies." The company also received the second-highest score of all companies surveyed in the area of Social Responsibility.

The survey assessed companies on eight key attributes of reputation: innovation, employee talent, use of corporate assets, social responsibility, quality of management, financial soundness, long-term investment value, and quality of products and services. International Paper was rated first in six of the eight forest and paper products industry attributes, including employee talent and quality of management.

The Most Admired survey was conducted by an independent management consulting firm on behalf of Fortune. The firm took the 10 largest companies by revenue in 64 industries and surveyed 10,000 executives, directors, and securities analysts who rated the companies in their own industries using the eight criteria.

The Most Admired Companies list appears in the March 6 issue of Fortune and is accessible online at fortune.com. For more information on International Paper, see internationalpaper.com.
