SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Plum Creek Timber Company, Inc. (PCL) today announced second
quarter earnings of $21 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, on revenues
of $302 million. Earnings for the second quarter of 2014 were $55
million, or $0.31 per diluted share, on revenues of $356 million.
Reported earnings in the second quarter of 2014 were higher due to the
sale of over 49,000 acres of Wisconsin timberlands.
Earnings for the first six months of 2015 were $63 million, or $0.35 per
diluted share, on revenues of $708 million. Earnings for the first six
months of 2014 were $85 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, on revenues
of $673 million.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure of operating performance, for the
first six months of 2015 was $269 million, a $36 million increase from
the $233 million for the same period of 2014. A reconciliation of
adjusted EBITDA to net income and cash flow from operations is provided
as an attachment to this release.
“Second quarter earnings were slightly better than we initially
thought,” said Rick Holley, Plum Creek’s chief executive officer. “All
of our business segments performed well in the second quarter with our
Manufacturing and Real Estate segments reporting better results than we
initially anticipated. Improving consumer confidence, employment, and
residential construction activity are encouraging and leading indicators
of future demand growth.”
Review of Second Quarter Operations
The Northern Resources segment reported operating income of $3 million
during the second quarter, compared to the $5 million reported during
the second quarter of 2014. Total harvest volumes were similar to the
second quarter of 2014. Higher pulpwood volumes in the Northeast and
Lake States offset lower sawlog harvest levels in the Northwest. Average
sawlog prices declined $4 per ton, or about 5 percent, compared to the
prior year as West Coast sawmills were well-supplied with logs and log
export markets remained soft. In the Northeast, average pulpwood prices
increased $6 per ton, or about 15 percent over the past year. Pulpwood
demand in the Lake States and New England remained strong as pulp and
paper companies struggled to build log inventories.
Operating income in the Southern Resources segment was $32 million, down
slightly from the $33 million reported for the second quarter of 2014.
Total harvest volumes and sawlog prices were largely unchanged from the
prior year. Pulpwood prices increased $1 per ton, approximately 8
percent, compared to the second quarter of 2014. Pulpwood prices have
trended higher over the past year on good demand from pulp, paper and
packaging customers as well as the start-up of new pellet mills in the
Gulf South region.
The Real Estate segment reported revenue of $25 million and operating
income of $11 million in the second quarter of 2015. Second quarter 2014
revenue was $77 million and operating income was $45 million. The 2014
results included a $45 million sale in Wisconsin. During the quarter,
the company sold a total of 8,005 acres of recreation lands for $2,255
per acre and 1,515 acres of small, non-strategic timberlands at an
average price of $955 per acre. The company also sold 6,610 acres of
conservation lands in the Northeast at an average price of $860 per acre.
The Manufacturing segment reported operating income of $14 million,
compared to the $10 million of operating income reported for the second
quarter of 2014. The 2015 results include a non-recurring benefit of
approximately $3 million that was primarily related to lower workers’
compensation expenses. Results for the second quarter of 2014 included a
$2 million adverse impact related to the June 2014 fire at the company’s
MDF facility. Production and sales volumes for MDF and plywood increased
over the prior year due to continued strength in the specialty panels
markets. The strong results from the MDF and plywood businesses during
the quarter offset the impact of lower lumber prices.
Operating income from the Energy and Natural Resources segment was $5
million, down $1 million from the second quarter of 2014. The decrease
in earnings was primarily the result of lower coal and natural gas
royalty income compared to the second quarter of 2014.
Share Repurchase
During the quarter the company repurchased approximately $31 million of
common stock at an average price of $41.16 per share. As of June 30,
2015, the company had 174.9 million shares of common stock outstanding
and $75 million remaining in its current share repurchase authorization.
Outlook
The company expects harvest volumes will be in the lower half of its 19
to 20 million ton target range for 2015. Harvest levels in the third
quarter for the Northern Resources segment are expected to seasonally
rebound to approximately one million tons. In the Southern Resources
segment, harvest volumes are expected to be about 4 million tons with a
pulpwood to sawtimber mix similar to the second quarter of 2015.
Real Estate sales are expected to be $125 to $135 million in the third
quarter. The company expects Real Estate sales will approach $300
million for 2015. Land basis, as a percentage of real estate revenues,
is expected to be 34 percent in the second half of the year.
During the third quarter of 2015, earnings for the Energy and Natural
Resources segment should be similar to second quarter levels. Without
the $3 million non-recurring benefit realized in the second quarter, the
company expects the Manufacturing segment to report operating profit
similar to the first-quarter results.
“Our business segments have performed much as we expected during the
first two quarters of 2015, and we continue to expect some demand growth
in the second half of the year,” continued Holley. “However, lower
lumber prices and healthy log inventories at most mills limits the
upside pricing opportunities in sawlogs that would lead us to the upper
end of our earnings guidance range. We are narrowing our guidance range
for the year accordingly, and now expect to report 2015 earnings between
$1.05 and $1.20 per share. We expect to report third quarter earnings
between $0.50 and $0.55 per share.
“At Plum Creek, we manage the company with the goal of maximizing the
long-term value of our shareholders’ investment. Our recent share
repurchase activity is just one example of our disciplined approach to
capital allocation. We continue to evaluate all our capital allocation
alternatives, and we will execute on those that provide the best benefit
to our shareholders,” concluded Holley.

During the second quarter of 2014, we experienced a fire at our MDF
facility and recorded a $2 million loss representing the net book
value of the building and equipment damaged or destroyed by the
fire. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and June 30,
2014, we recorded gains related to insurance recoveries of $2
million and $4 million, respectively. Insurance recoveries were
received for costs incurred to rebuild or replace the damaged
building and equipment and for business interruption costs. Both the
building and equipment loss and the insurance recoveries are
reported as Other Operating Gain (Loss) in our Manufacturing Segment
and are included in Other Operating Income (Expense), net in the
Consolidated Statements of Income.

Plum Creek Timber Company, Inc.
Segment Data - Adjusted
EBITDA
Reconciliation of Operating Income and Net Cash
Provided
by Operating Activities
(Unaudited)
We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings from continuing operations,
excluding Equity Earnings from the Timberland Venture, and before
interest expense (including any gains or losses from extinguishment of
debt), taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, and basis in real
estate sold. In addition to including Equity Earnings or Loss from Real
Estate Development Ventures in Adjusted EBITDA, we also include, as an
add back to Operating Income for the Other Segment, our proportional
share of depreciation, depletion, amortization, and basis in real estate
sold from this equity method investment. Adjusted EBITDA is not
considered a measure of financial performance under U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) and the items excluded from
Adjusted EBITDA are significant components of our consolidated financial
statements.
We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental performance measure because
we believe it facilitates operating performance comparisons from period
to period, and each business segment’s contribution to that performance,
by eliminating non-cash charges to earnings, which can vary
significantly by business segment. These non-cash charges include timber
depletion, depreciation of fixed assets and the basis in real estate
sold. We also use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental liquidity measure
because we believe it is useful in measuring our ability to generate
cash. In addition, we believe Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used by
investors, lenders and rating agencies to assess our financial
performance.
A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income and net cash from
operating activities, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP performance
and liquidity measures, is provided in the following schedules:
