RATIO ANALYSIS OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL POSITION

a) Statement of financial position

The principal components of assets and liabilities at the end of each period are as follows:

Assets	06-30-2023 ThU.S.$		12-31-2022 ThU.S.$		Variation ThU.S.$
Current assets		4,027,356		3,774,921		252,435
Non-current assets		13,815,097		13,405,187		409,910
Total assets		17,842,453		17,180,108		3.86	%
Liabilities	06-30-2023 ThU.S.$		12-31-2022 ThU.S.$		Variation ThU.S.$
Current liabilities		1,609,189		1,526,284		82,905
Non-current liabilities		8,090,072		7,393,840		696,232
Non–controlling interests		5,624		5,189		435
Equity attributable to parent company		8,137,568		8,254,795		(117,227	)
Total net equity and liabilities		17,842,453		17,180,108		3.86	%

As of June 30, 2023, total assets increased MU.S.$ 662 compared to December 31, 2022, equivalent to a 3.86% variation. This variation was driven mainly by an increase in cash and cash equivalents, property, plant and equipment, right of use assets and inventories, which were offset by a lower balance of trade receivables and other receivables.

In turn, total liabilities increased by MU.S.$ 779 principally driven by increases in financial liabilities for bank borrowings and UF bond issuances, which were offset by lower balances of deferred tax liabilities and trade and other current payables.

The main financial and operational indicators related to the statement of financial position as of the dates and for the periods indicated below are as follows:

Liquidity ratios	06-30-2023			12-31-2022
Current liquidity (current assets / current liabilities)		2.50			2.47
Acid ratio ((current assets-inventories, biological assets) / current liabilities)		1.30			1.29
Debt indicators	06-30-2023			12-31-2022
Debt to equity ratio (total liabilities / equity)		1.19			1.08
Short-term debt to total debt (current liabilities / total liabilities)		0.17			0.17
Long-term debt to total debt (non-current liabilities / total liabilities)		0.83			0.83
	06-30-2023			06-30-2022
Financial expenses coverage ratio (earnings before taxes + interest expense / interest expense)		(0.08	)		9.42
Activity ratio	06-30-2023			12-31-2022
Inventory turnover-time (cost of sales / inventories + current biological assets)		2.39			2.59
Inventory turnover-time (excluding biological assets) (Cost of sales /inventory)		2.93			3.23
Inventory permanence-days ((inventories + biological assets) /cost of sales)		150.62			139.26
Inventory permanence-days (excluding biological assets) (inventory / cost of sales)		122.68			111.46

As of June 30, 2023, the short-term debt to total debt ratio represented 17% of total liabilities (17% as of December 31, 2022).

Our financial expenses coverage ratio decreased from 9.42 to (0.08), mainly due to the losses before taxes generated for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, compared to the profits before taxes generated in the same period of 2022.

b) Statement of profit or loss

Profit before income tax

We recorded a loss before income tax of approximately MU.S.$ 185 compared to a profit of approximately MU.S.$ 784 in the same period of 2022. The variation of MU.S.$ 969 is explained by the factors described in the following table:

2. MAIN SOURCES OF FINANCING

Arauco’s financing needs are mainly covered through the capital markets, with bond issuances and credits obtained from banks and financial institutions serving as the main sources of financing.

For short-term borrowing, Arauco follows a liquidity policy which indicates the amounts and institutions from which it can borrow according to several conditions defined in the policy.

In the case of long-term debt, corporate bond issuances in the local market and also in the international markets are used as sources of new resources.

Another source of long-term financing corresponds to borrowings from banks and financial institutions around the world.

3. MARKET SITUATION

Turnover for the second quarter of 2023 decreased by 24.2% when compared to the same period in 2022. This decline was due to lower prices, slightly offset by an increase in sales volume. During the first half of 2023, turnover was 19.5% lower than in the same period of 2022, due to lower volume and lower prices. In terms of grades, most of the prices were lower, with the exception of the grades produced at the Argentina mill.

During the second quarter of 2023 the pulp market weakened. There was an increase in the supply of short fiber to the commissioning of Arauco’s L3 and the new plant in Uruguay, owned by the producer UPM. Additionally, the low season began during this quarter, which, jointly with lower economic activity in several regions, generated lower demand for pulp. Total global inventories followed the trend of the first quarter of 2023 and continued to increase, reaching levels which have not been seen for several years.

In China, the market remains stable, prices of end-products in the paper industry have decreased, and price increases have been attempted in the tissue industry. However, the industry remains cautious due to low seasonality. Pulp prices of all grades began the quarter declining, but towards the end of the quarter the price of long fiber remained constant and that of short fiber increased slightly. Prices’ low level has caused pulp buyers to begin rebuilding their pulp inventories. In addition, pulp supply has increased as a result of new plants and of ship diversions from other destinations to China.    

In Europe, demand for paper remains low and customers still hold high inventories of end-products and raw material. However, customers have managed to maintain relatively stable prices for their products. Towards mid-quarter, we also observed that the tissue industry began to weaken. Regarding pulp supply, there was considerable spot supply from other producers during the quarter, which was also reflected in the high pulp inventories at the ports. Both short and long fiber prices decreased during the quarter, with short fiber prices showing a stronger decline as customers pushed to reduce the net price difference with China as much as possible.

The textile pulp market during the second quarter weakens, and therefore, there were some price drops throughout the quarter. Additionally, the low season started during the quarter, resulting in a decrease in demand for textile pulp.

Production in the second quarter of 2023 was affected by the scheduled shutdown of the Nueva Aldea mill and the mill in Uruguay. The Valdivia mill was stopped for almost the entire quarter due to the replacement of the equipment that caught fire in 2022. Additionally, the MAPA project continued with its production curve according to plan.

Wood Products Business

Sawn timber

Sawn timber sales continued to decline in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period of the 2022. In general, the markets continue to show the effects of lower economic activity, reflected in lower volumes and prices. China was affected by real estate problems, problems derived from Covid, and continues to show lower than expected economic growth. The rest of Asia and Europe was affected by high inventories, high interest rates, and geopolitical uncertainty. For the upcoming months, limited demand and an uncertain general scenario may continue, which could have repercussions on supply.

In remanufacturing, in the U.S., during this quarter we are beginning to see an improvement in demand, although volumes and prices remain quite lower than in 2022 as a result of the effects of high inflation in the region, rate hikes, high inventories in the logistics chain, and higher supply from Asia, from local sources, and from Latin America. For the next quarter, stable demand and prices are expected in the U.S. and the rest of the markets.

Plywood

During the second quarter of 2023 there was generally a lower demand for plywood compared to the same period of 2022. This decrease is mainly an effect of inflation and higher interest rates in the Americas and Oceania, affecting the construction and renovation sectors. Furthermore, the complicated scenario in Europe due to the war has had an impact on demand and has translated into higher costs. As a result, there is an oversupply in the market, both in Latin America and Europe. In the case of North America, demand and prices have stabilized. Improvements are expected in this market next quarter, while in the rest of the markets they should only occur towards the end of the year and in early 2024.

Panels (MDF, PB, Melamine)

In this second quarter of 2023, volumes and prices continued to be affected by higher exports from Brazil to the rest of the region, especially in MDF. On the demand side, the downward trend persists due to high inflation, higher interest rates, devaluation of currencies against the dollar, high inventories, and political uncertainty in some countries. This competitive scenario is expected to continue in the third quarter.

4. ANALYSIS OF CASH FLOW

The main components of cash flow in each period are as follows:

	06-30-2023 ThU.S.$			06-30-2022 ThU.S.$
Positive (negative) Cash flow
Net cash flows from (used in) operating activities		149,286			945,753
Cash flows from (used in) financing activities:
Obtaining and paying borrowings and bonds		997,806			(93,836	)
Payments of lease liabilities		(26,982	)		(32,251	)
Dividends paid		(282,690	)		(192,334	)
Others		(6,251	)		(378	)
Cash flows from (used in) investment activities:
Purchase and sale of property, plant and equipment		(488,569	)		(639,464	)
Purchase and sale of biological assets		(212,818	)		(104,493	)
Purchase and sale of intangible assets		(2,773	)		(1,916	)
Additions (disposals), investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates		—			(118	)
Dividends received		543			24,768
Others		(21,626	)		(2,372	)
Positive (negative) net cash flow		105,926			(96,641	)

Our cash flow from operating activities decreased to MU.S.$ 149 for the current period (compared to the positive balance of MU.S.$ 946 for the same period in 2022), resulting mainly from a lower revenue from customer collections in the current period.

The cash flow from financing activities showed a positive balance of MU.S.$ 682 for the current period (compared to the negative balance of MU.S.$ 319 for the same period in 2022). This was mainly due to an increase in short-term borrowings, which was partially offset by financial debts payments

Regarding the cash flow from investment activities, the balance increased to MU.S.$ 725 (compared to a negative balance of MU.S.$ 724 for the same period of 2022), mainly due to a decrease in payments for purchases of property, plant and equipment, which was partially offset by an increase in payments for purchases related to forest plantations and a decrease in dividends received.

5. MARKET RISK ANALYSIS

In respect of the economic risks resulting from interest rate variations, the Company maintained, as of June 30, 2023, a ratio of fixed rate debt to total consolidated debt of approximately 93.7%, which we believe is consistent with industry standards.

Regarding variations in prices of pulp and forestry products, the Company does not participate in futures trading, which allows it to maintain one of the lowest cost structures in the industry and have these risks bounded.

The Company and most of its subsidiaries maintain their accounting records and prepare their financial statements in U.S. dollars. Most of their revenues (and accordingly accounts receivable) are denominated in U.S. dollars, and most financial liabilities are either denominated in U.S. dollars or are covered by exchange rate swaps. As a result, exposure to exchange rate fluctuations has decreased significantly.

The consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2023 include a detailed analysis of the risks associated with the business of Arauco (see Note 23).

Celulosa Arauco y Constitución S.A. and subsidiaries, (hereafter “Arauco” or the “Company”), tax identification number 93.458.000-1, is a closely held corporation, which was registered in the Securities Registry (the “Registry”) of the Chilean Commission for the Financial Market (“CMF”) as No. 042 on June 14, 1982. Additionally, the Company is registered as a non-accelerated filer in the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of the United States of America.

The Company’s head office address is El Golf Avenue 150, 14^th floor, Las Condes, Santiago, Chile.

Functional and Presentation Currency

Arauco and most of its subsidiaries determined the United States (“U.S.”) dollar as its functional currency since the majority of its revenues from sales of its products are derived from exports denominated in U.S. dollars, while their costs of sales are to a large extent related or indexed to the U.S. dollar.

For the pulp reportable segment, most of the sales are exports denominated in U.S. dollars and costs are mainly related to plantation costs which are settled in U.S. dollars.

For the wood reportable segment, although total sales include a mix of domestic and exports sales, prices of the products are established in U.S. dollars, which is also the case for the cost structure of the related raw materials.

In relation to the cost of sales, although labor and services costs are generally billed and paid in local currency, these costs are not as significant as the costs of raw materials, which are driven mainly by global markets and therefore, influenced mostly by the U.S. dollar.

The currency used to finance operations is mainly the U.S. dollar.

The presentation currency of the interim consolidated financial statements is the U.S. dollar. Figures on these interim consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of U.S. dollar (ThU.S.$).

Summary of significant accounting policies

a) Basis for preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements

These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and they represent the explicit and unreserved adoption of IFRS.

These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for biological assets and certain derivative financial instruments which are measured at revalued amounts or fair value at the end of each period as explained in the following significant accounting policies.

b) Critical accounting estimates and judgments

The preparation of these interim consolidated financial statements, in accordance with IFRS, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the carrying amounts reported. These estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that are considered to be reasonable. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Management believes that the accounting policies below are the critical judgments that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the interim consolidated financial statements.

• Biological Assets

The recovery of forest plantations is based on discounted cash flow models which means that the fair value of biological assets is calculated using cash flows from continuing operations on a discounted basis, based on our sustainable forest management plans and the estimated growth of forests.

The measurement of the fair value of the biological assets is determined using a discounted cash flow model. Our cash flow projections include significant judgments and assumptions relating to discount rates, estimated growth of the forests and sales margins. This valuation is performed on the basis of each identifiable farm block and for each type of tree. The main considerations used to calculate the valuation of forest plantations and a sensitivity analysis are presented in Note 20.

• Litigation and Contingencies

Arauco and its subsidiaries are subject to certain litigation proceedings. Future impact on Arauco’s financial condition derived from such litigations is estimated by management, in collaboration with its legal advisors. Arauco applies judgment when interpreting the reports of its legal advisors who provide updated estimates of the legal contingencies at each reporting period and/or at each time a modification is determined to be necessary. For a description of current litigations see Note 18.

c) Consolidation

The interim consolidated financial statements include all entities over which Arauco has the power to direct the relevant financial and operating activities. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is obtained and up to the date that control ceases.

Specifically, a company controls an investee or subsidiary if, and only if, they have all of the following:

(a) power over the investee, i.e. the investor has existing rights which give it the ability to direct the relevant activities (the activities that significantly affect the investee’s returns);

(b) exposure or rights to variable returns from involvement with the investee; and

(c) the ability to use power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor’s returns.

When Arauco holds less than the majority of the voting rights in a company in which it participates, it nonetheless has the power over said company - when these voting rights are enough - to grant it in practice the ability to unilaterally direct said company’s relevant activities. Arauco takes into account all facts and circumstances in order to assess if the voting rights in a company in which it participates are enough for granting it the power, including:

a) the size of the investor’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of holdings of the other vote holders;

b) potential voting rights held by the investor, other vote holders or other parties;

c) rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and

d) any additional facts and circumstances that indicate the investor has, or does not have, the current ability to direct the relevant activities at the time that decisions need to be made, including voting patterns at previous shareholders’ meetings.

The Company will reevaluate whether or not it holds control of a company in which participates if the facts and circumstances indicate that changes have occurred in one or more of the three elements of control mentioned above.

Consolidation of an investee shall begin from the date the investor obtains control of the investee and cease when the investor loses control of the investee. An entity includes the income and expenses of an acquired or sold subsidiary in the interim consolidated financial statements from the date it gains control until the date when the entity ceases to control the subsidiary.

The profit or loss of each component of other comprehensive income is attributed to owners of the parent company and the non-controlling interest, as appropriate. Total comprehensive income is attributed to the owners of the parent company and non-controlling interests even if the results of the non-controlling interest have a deficit balance.

If a subsidiary uses accounting policies other than those adopted in the interim consolidated financial statements for transactions and other events in similar circumstances, appropriate adjustments are made to the interim consolidated financial statements of subsidiaries in order to ensure compliance with Arauco’s accounting policies.

All intercompany transactions and unrealized gains and losses from subsidiaries have been fully eliminated from these interim consolidated financial statements and non-controlling interest is presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity.

The interim consolidated financial statements at the end of this period include the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of the subsidiaries shown in Note 13.

Certain consolidated subsidiaries have Brazilian real, Mexican pesos, Canadian dollars, Chilean pesos and Argentine pesos as their functional currencies. For consolidation purposes, the financial statements of those subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with IFRS and translated as indicated in Note 1 (e) (ii).

A parent company will present non-controlling interests in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, separately from the equity of the owners of the parent company.

d) Segments

Arauco has defined its reportable segments according to its business areas, based on the products and services sold to its customers. This definition is consistent with the management, resource allocation and performance assessment made by key personnel responsible for making relevant decisions related to the Company’s operation. The personnel responsible for making such decisions are the Executive Vice-president and the Chief Executive Officer who are the highest authorities for making decisions and are supported by the Vice-presidents of each segment.

Based on the aforementioned process, the Company has established reportable segments according to the following business units:    

• Pulp

• Wood products

Refer to Note 24 for detailed financial information by reportable segment.

e) Functional currency

(i) Functional currency

All items in the financial statements of Arauco and each of its subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which each entity operates (the functional currency). The interim consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, which is Arauco’s functional and presentation currency.

(ii) Translation to the presentation currency of Arauco

For the purposes of presenting interim consolidated financial statements, assets and liabilities of Arauco’s operations in a functional currency different from Arauco’s are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used. Exchange rate differences are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in “Other reserves” within equity.

(iii) Foreign Currency Transactions

Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are recognized at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Profit or loss on transactions in currencies other than the functional currency resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, are recognized in the consolidated statements of profit or loss, except those which are recorded in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity such as cash flows hedging derivatives.

f) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash-on-hand, deposits held on demand at financial entities and other short-term highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

g) Financial Instruments

Financial assets

Initial classification

Arauco classifies its financial assets into the following categories: fair value through profit or loss and amortized cost.

Arauco does not have financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income.

The classification is based on the business model used to manage the assets and the characteristics of their contractual cash flows.

Management determines the classification of its financial assets at the time of their initial recognition.

(a) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss: these instruments are initially measured at fair value. Net income and losses, including any income from interest or dividends, are registered in the profit or loss of the period. Financial assets are classified in the category of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss when they are maintained for negotiation or designated in their initial registration as assets at fair value through profit or loss. A financial asset can be classified in this category if it is acquired mainly for the purposes of being sold in the short-term. Gain or losses of assets held for negotiations are registered in the consolidated statements of profit or loss, and the related interest is registered independently as financial income. Derivatives are classified as acquired for negotiation also unless they are designated as hedging instruments.

(b) Assets measured at amortized cost: they are initially registered at the fair value of the transaction, adding or subtracting the transaction costs that are directly attributable to the issuance of the financial asset or financial liability. The financial asset is maintained within a business model, the objective of which is to maintain financial assets to obtain contractual cash flows and the contractual conditions of the asset give rise, on specified dates, to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (“SPPI”) over the amount of the outstanding principal.

Subsequent measurement

Financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss or amortized cost.

The classification is based on two criteria: i) the Company’s business model for the management of financial instruments, and ii) whether the contractual cash flows related to the financial instruments represent “Solely Payments of Principal and Interest”.

a) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss: these instruments are subsequently measured at fair value. Net earnings and losses, including income from interest and dividends, are registered as profits or losses for the period. These instruments are held for negotiation, and they are mainly acquired to be sold in the short-term. Derivatives are also classified as held for negotiation, unless they are registered as hedging instruments. Financial instruments of this type are classified as other current and non-current financial assets. They are subsequently valuated by determining their fair value, registering changes in value in the consolidated statements of profit or loss, in the items of financial income or financial costs.

b) Financial assets measured at amortized cost: These instruments are subsequently measured at amortized cost minus accumulated amortizations, using the effective interest method and adjusted by loss allowance and volume discounts, in the case of financial assets. Financial income and expenses, foreign exchange income and losses, and impairment are registered in results. Any earnings or losses due to initial or subsequent reductions of the value of the asset are registered in the statement of profit or loss of the period. Borrowings and receivables are non-derivative financial instruments with fixed or determinable payments not traded in any active market. They are registered at amortized cost, registering accrued conditions directly in profit or loss.

Arauco measures accumulated losses in a quantity equivalent to expected credit losses during the lifelong commitment. Expected credit losses are based on contractual cash flow differences based on the allowance of each contract and the cash flows that Arauco expects. The difference is then discounted based on an approximation of the asset’s original effective interest rate. The asset’s carrying value is reduced as the allowance is used, and the loss is recognized in sales expenses in the consolidated statements of profit or loss. When an account receivable cannot be collected, it is regularized against the allowance account for receivables. Subsequent recoveries of previously impaired amounts are recognized as a debit in distribution cost.

Derivative financial instruments are explained in Note 1 h).

Financial liabilities

Arauco classifies its financial liabilities as follows: fair value through profit or loss, derivatives designated as effective hedging instruments and amortized costs.

Management determines the classification of its financial liabilities upon initial recognition. Financial liabilities are derecognized when the obligation is cancelled, settled or expired. When an existing financial liability is replaced with another of the same provider under substantially different terms, or where the terms of an existing liability are substantially amended, such exchange or modification is treated as a write-off of the original liability, with a new liability being recognized, and the difference between the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

Financial liabilities are initially recognized at fair value, and in the case of borrowings, they include the costs directly attributable to the transaction. The subsequent measurement of the financial liabilities depends on their classification:

Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

Financial liabilities are included in the category of financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss when they are held for trading or originally designated at fair value through profit or loss. Income and losses from liabilities held for trading are recognized in profit or loss. This category includes non-designated derivatives for hedging accounting.

Financial liabilities at amortized cost

Other financial liabilities are subsequently valued at their amortized cost based on the effective interest rate method. The amortized cost is calculated taking into account any premium or acquisition discount and includes the costs of transactions that are an integral part of the effective interest rate. This category includes commercial accounts payable and other accounts payable, lease liabilities, as well as the borrowings included in other current and non-current financial liabilities.

h) Derivative financial instruments

(i) Derivative financial instruments - The Company enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange rate risks, including foreign exchange forward contracts, interest rate swaps, currency swaps and zero cost collar contracts. The Company’s policy is to enter into derivatives contracts only for economic hedging purposes and there are no instruments with speculation objectives.

Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently re-measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss unless the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument and complies with hedge accounting requirements, in which event the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedge relationship.

(ii) Embedded derivatives

The Company assesses the existence of embedded derivatives in financial instrument contracts. Derivatives embedded in non-derivative host contracts are treated as separate derivatives when they meet the definition of a derivative, their risks and characteristics are not closely related to those of the host contracts and the contracts are not measured at FVTPL as a whole. Arauco has determined that no embedded derivatives currently exist.

(iii) Hedge accounting

The Company designates certain hedging instruments as either fair value hedges or cash flow hedges.

At the inception of the hedge relationship, the entity documents the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item, along with its risk management objectives and its strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. Furthermore, at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, Arauco documents whether the hedging instrument is highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk.

• Fair Value Hedges

Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recognized in profit or loss immediately, together with any changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk.

• Cash flow hedges

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated under the heading of cash flow hedging reserve. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in profit or loss, and is included in the Finance costs line item in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. Amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss, in the same line as the recognized hedged item.

Hedge accounting is discontinued when the Group revokes the hedging relationship, when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or when it no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. Any gain or loss recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognized when the forecasted transaction is ultimately recognized in profit or loss. When a forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, the gain or loss accumulated in equity is recognized immediately in profit or loss.

i) Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the weighted average cost method.

The cost of finished and in process products includes the cost of raw materials, direct labor, other direct costs and manufacturing overhead expenses.

Initial costs of harvested wood are determined at fair value less cost of sale at the point of harvest.

Biological assets are transferred to inventories when forests are harvested.

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

When market conditions result in the production costs of a product exceeding its net realizable value, the inventories are written-down to their net realizable value. This write-down also includes obsolescence amounts resulting from slow moving inventories and technical obsolescence.

Spare parts that will be consumed in a period of less than twelve months are presented in inventories and recognized as an expense when they are consumed.

j) Non-current assets held for sale

Arauco classifies certain property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, investments in associates and disposal groups (groups of assets to be sold together with their directly associated liabilities) as non-current assets held for sale which as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial position are the subject of active sale efforts which are estimated to be highly probable.

These assets or disposal groups are measured at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less the costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated or amortized from the time they are classified as non-current assets held for sale.

k) Business Combinations

Arauco applies the acquisition method to account for a business combination. This method requires the identification of the acquirer, determination of the acquisition date, recognition and measurement of the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree; and recognition and measurement of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed and any contingent liabilities in a business combination are initially measured at fair value at the acquisition date, except:

• deferred tax assets or liabilities, and assets or liabilities related to employee benefit arrangements are recognized and measured in accordance with IAS 12 Income taxes and IAS 19 respectively;

• liabilities or equity instruments related to share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree or share-based payment arrangements of the Group entered into to replace share-based payment arrangements of the acquiree are measured in accordance with IFRS 3 at the acquisition date; and

• assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations are measured in accordance with such standard.

Acquisition-related costs are accounted for as expenses when they are incurred, except for costs to issue debt or equity securities which are recognized in accordance with IAS 32 and IFRS 9.

A parent will present non-controlling interests in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, separately from the equity of the owners of the parent company.

Changes in the ownership interest of a parent in its subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are treated as equity transactions. Any difference between the amount by which non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to owners of the parent company. No adjustment is made to the carrying amount of goodwill, neither gains nor losses are recognized in the statement of profit or loss.

Non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests and entitle their holders to a proportionate share of the entity’s net assets in the event of liquidation may initially be measured either at fair value or at the present ownership instruments’ proportionate share of non-controlling interests, in the recognized amounts of the acquirer’s identifiable net assets. The choice is made on a transaction-by-transaction basis.

Arauco measures the fair value of the acquired company in the business combination achieved in each stage (“step acquisition”), recognizing the effects of remeasurement of previously held equity in the acquiree in the consolidated statements of profit or loss.

If the initial accounting for a business combination is not completed by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, Arauco reports preliminary amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. During the measurement period (no more than one year), these preliminary amounts are retrospectively adjusted, or additional assets or liabilities are recognized to reflect new information about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date, if known, would have affected the amounts recognized at that date.

Business combinations that are under common control transactions are accounted using as a reference the pooling of interest. Under this method, assets and liabilities related to the transaction carry over the previous carrying values. Any difference between assets and liabilities included in the consolidation and the consideration transferred, is accounted in equity.

l) Investments in associates and joint arrangements

Associates are entities over which Arauco exercises significant influence, but not control. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.

Joint arrangement is defined as an entity over which there is joint control, which exists only when the decisions about strategic of activities, both financial and operational, require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

Investments in joint arrangements are classified as a joint venture or as a joint operation. A joint operation is a joint arrangement in which the parties that have joint control of the arrangement (i.e. joint operators) have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement in which the parties that have joint control of the arrangement (i.e., participants in a joint venture) have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.

Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognized at cost. Their carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognize the portion corresponding to the statement of profit or loss or to the statement of comprehensive income. Dividends received are recognized by deducting the amount received from the carrying amount of the investment. Arauco’s investment in associates includes goodwill (both net of any accumulated impairment loss).

The investments in joint operations are recognized through consolidation of assets, liabilities and results of operations in relation to Arauco’s ownership percentage.

If the acquisition cost is lower than the fair value of the net assets of the associate acquired, the difference is recognized directly in statement of profit or loss in line other gains (losses).

Investments in associates and joint ventures are presented in the consolidated statement of financial position in the line item “Investments accounted for using equity method”.

If Arauco’s share of losses of an associate or joint venture equals or exceeds its interest in the associate or joint venture, Arauco discontinues recognizing its share of further losses. After Arauco’s carrying value in the investee is reduced to zero, additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that Arauco has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate or joint venture. If the associate or joint venture subsequently reports profits, Arauco resumes recognizing its share of those profits only after its share of the profits equals the share of losses not recognized.

m) Intangible assets other than goodwill

After initial recognition, intangible assets with finite useful lives are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and impairment losses.

Amortization of an intangible asset with a finite useful life is allocated over the asset’s useful life. Amortization begins when the asset is available for use, i.e., when it is in the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

(i) Computer software

Computer software licenses are capitalized in terms of the costs incurred to acquire and make them compatible with existing software. These costs are amortized over the estimated useful lives of the software.

(ii) Water rights, easements and other rights

This item includes water rights, easements and other acquired rights recognized at historical cost which have indefinite useful lives as there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which these assets are expected to generate future cash flows. These rights are not amortized, but are tested for impairment at least annually, or when there is any indication that the assets might be impaired.

(iii) Customers and trade relations with customers

Correspond to the valuation over the time of the established relationship with customers, from the sale of products and services through its sales team. These relations will materialize in sales orders, which generate revenue and cost of sales. The useful life has been determined to be 15 years.

n) Goodwill

Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquired company, and the fair value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquired company (if any) over the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If the total of consideration transferred, non-controlling interest recognized and previously held interest measured is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognized directly in the statements of profit or loss.

Goodwill is not amortized but tested for impairment on annual basis.

CELULOSA ARAUCO Y CONSTITUCION S.A. AND SUBSIDIARIES

June 30, 2023

Amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, except as indicated

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For purposes of impairment testing, goodwill in a business combination is allocated as of the acquisition date to the cash generating unit or a group of cash generating units expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquired company are allocated to those units or group of units.

The goodwill generated on acquisitions of foreign companies, is expressed in the functional currency of such foreign company.

Goodwill recognized in subsidiaries Arauco Canada Ltd. and Arauco do Brasil S.A., generated on subsidiaries acquisitions whose functional currency is different from the functional currency of the parent company and presentation of these interim consolidated financial statements, are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate.

o) Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment. The cost includes expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the assets.

Subsequent costs, such as improvements and replacement of components, are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to Arauco and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized from property, plant and equipment. All other repairs and maintenance costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

Arauco capitalizes borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets as part of the cost of those assets, until the assets are ready for their intended use (See Note 12).

Depreciation is calculated by components using the straight-line method.

The useful lives of the items of property, plant and equipment is estimated according to the expected use of the assets. The residual values and useful lives of assets are reviewed and adjusted, if appropriate, annually.

p) Leases

Arauco applies IFRS 16 for recognizing leases in a manner consistent with contracts with similar features and akin circumstances.

At the beginning of a contract, Arauco assesses whether the contract is, or if it contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if it transfers the right to control the use of a given asset for a certain period of time, in exchange for consideration.

As of the initial date for recording a lease, Arauco, as lessee, recognizes an asset by the right of use at cost.

25

CELULOSA ARAUCO Y CONSTITUCION S.A. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Unaudited consolidated financial statements

June 30, 2023

Amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, except as indicated

The cost of the asset for right of use comprises:

• The amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability. This measurement is at present value of the payments for leases that have not been disbursed as of that date. Payments for leases are discounted using the incremental interest rate for financial borrowings;

• Payments for leases performed prior to or as of the initiation date, minus the lease incentives that have been received;

• The initial direct costs incurred by the lessee; and

• An estimation of the costs to be incurred by the lessee when dismantling and eliminating the underlying asset, restoring the location where the same is located, or restoring the underlying asset to the condition required under the terms and conditions of the lease, unless such costs are incurred in order to produce inventories. The lessee assumes obligations stemming from such costs either at the commencement date, or as a result of having used the underlying asset during a specific period.

After the initial recognition date, Arauco, as lessee, recognizes its asset for right of use by applying the cost model, minus the accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for remeasurement of the liability for lease.

At the beginning, Arauco in the capacity of lessee, recognizes the lease liability at present value of the lease payments that have not been disbursed as of that date. Lease payments are discounted using the incremental interest rate for financial borrowings.

After the initial recognition date, Arauco, as lessee, recognizes a liability for leases by increasing the book value, so as to reflect the interest over the liability for lease, reducing the amount in order to reflect the payments for leases that have been performed and once again recognizing the book value, so as to reflect the remeasurement and also to reflect the essential fixed payments for leases that have been revised.

Arauco presents the assets by right of use in the consolidated statement of financial position and are further disclosed in Note 8. Likewise, lease liabilities are presented in the consolidated statement of financial position and further disclosed in Note 23.

IFRS 16 maintains substantially the accounting requirements of the lessor from IAS 17. Therefore, Arauco has continued to classify its leases as operational or financial, as the case may be.

Income from operating leases in which Arauco is the lessor are recognized on a straight-line basis during the term of the lease. Initial direct costs are added to the book value of the underlying asset and are recognized as expenses during the term of the lease on the same basis as the lease income. Leased assets are included within the statement of financial position, in property, plant and equipment. Arauco did not make adjustments with respect to assets that maintains as a lessor, as a result of IFRS 16 adoption.

When assets are leased under a financial lease, the present value of lease payments are recognized as financial accounts receivable. The difference between the gross receivable and the present value of such amount, is recognized as financial return on capital.

Arauco evaluates the economic nature of the contracts that grant the right to use certain assets, for the purposes of determining the existence of implied leases. In these cases, the Company separates, at the beginning of the contract and based on its relative reasonable values, payments and considerations associated with the lease, from the rest of the elements incorporated into the contract.

q) Biological Assets

IAS 41 requires that biological assets, such as standing trees, are measured at fair value less cost to sell in the statement of financial position. Forestry plantations are accounted for at fair value less costs to sell, based on the presumption that fair values of these assets can be measured reliably.

The measurement of the fair value of the biological assets is determined using a discounted cash flow model. Our cash flow projections include significant judgments and assumptions relating to discount rates, estimated growth of the forests and sales margins. This valuation is performed on the basis of each identifiable farm block and for each type of tree.

The measurement of new forestry plantations made during the current year is made at cost, which corresponds to the fair value at that date. After twelve months, the valuation methodology used is that explained in the preceding paragraph.

Biological assets shown as current assets correspond to those forestry plantations that will be harvested in the short-term.

Biological growth and changes in fair value of forestry plantations are recognized in the line item “Other income” in the consolidated statements of profit or loss.

r) Income taxes

The tax liabilities are recognized in the consolidated financial statements based on the determination of taxable income for the year and calculated using the tax rates in force in the countries where Arauco operates.

Deferred income tax is recognized using liability method, on the temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated annual accounts. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates contained in laws adopted as of the date of the financial statements and that are expected to be applicable when the related deferred tax asset is realized, or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred taxes are recognized in accordance with the standards established in IAS 12 - Income Tax.

The goodwill arising on business combinations does not give rise to deferred tax.

The deferred tax assets and tax credits are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

s) Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present obligation, legal or constructive, as a result of past events, under which, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and when a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period.

t) Revenue recognition

Revenues are valued at fair value of the consideration received or to be received, derived from them. Arauco analyses and takes under consideration all relevant facts and circumstances to apply the five-step model established under IFRS 15 to customer contracts: (i) identify the contract, (ii) identify the performance obligations, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price, and (v) recognize revenue. Additionally, Arauco evaluates the incremental costs of obtaining a contract and the costs incurred to comply with a contract. Arauco recognizes revenues when the steps established in IFRS have been satisfactorily complied with.

Accounts receivable are recognized when control over goods or services has been transferred to the customer, because at this point of the time collection is unconditional and the passage of time is only needed to receive payment.

(i) Revenue recognition from the Sale of Goods

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized when Arauco has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the committed goods, when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, when Arauco does not retain any managerial involvement over the goods sold and when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to Arauco and the costs incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably. Revenue from the sale of goods are recognized when there is no obligation unsatisfied that could affect the customer’s acceptance of the product. The delivery is effective when the products are sent to the specific location, the risks of obsolescence and loss have been transferred to the customer and when Arauco has objective evidence that all acceptance criteria have been satisfied.

Sales are recognized in terms of the price agreed to in the sales contract, less any volume discounts and estimated product returns at the date of the sale. There is no significant financing component given that receivables from sales are collected within a short period, which is in line with market practices.

The structure for recognizing revenue from export sales is based on the 2010 Incoterms, which are the official rules for the interpretation of commercial terms issued by the International Chamber of Commerce.

The main Incoterms used by Arauco are the following:

“CFR (Cost and freight)”, where the company bears all costs including main transportation, until the products arrives at its port of destination. The risk is transferred to the purchaser once the products have been loaded onto the vessel, in the country of origin.

28

CELULOSA ARAUCO Y CONSTITUCION S.A. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, except as indicated

“CIF (Cost Insurance & Freight)”, where the Company organizes and pays for external freight services and some other expenses. Arauco is no longer responsible for the products once they have been delivered to the ocean carrier company.

(ii) Revenue recognition from Rendering of Services

Revenue from the rendering of services is recognized as long as the performance obligation have been satisfied.

Revenue is recognized considering the stage of completion of the transaction at the date of the reporting period, when Arauco has the enforceable right of payment from the rendering of the services.

There is no significant financing component, given that sales are made with a reduced average collection period, which is in line with market practice.

Arauco mainly provides power supply services which are transacted principally in the spot market of the Sistema Eléctrico Nacional (SEN) (“National Electrical System”). According to current regulations, the prices on that market called “Marginal Costs” are calculated by the Coordinador Eléctrico Nacional (CEN) (“National Electrical Coordinator”) and are generally recognized in the period in which the services are rendered.

Electrical power is generated as a by-product of the pulp and wood process and is a complementary business to it, which is initially supplied to the group’s subsidiaries and any surplus is sold to the SEN.

Arauco provides other non-core services such as port services and pest control whose revenues are derived from fixed price service contracts are recognized considering the stage of completion of the services rendered at the date of reporting, generally during the period of the service contract on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract.

Revenues from reportable segments mentioned in Note 24 are measured in accordance with the policies indicated in the preceding paragraphs.

Revenues from inter-segment sales (which are made at market prices) are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

u) Minimum dividend

Article No. 79 of the Chilean Corporations Law states that, unless otherwise unanimously agreed by the shareholders, corporations must distribute annually at least 30% of net income for the current year as cash dividend to shareholders determined in proportion to their shares or in the proportion established in the by-laws for preferred shares, if any, except where necessary to absorb accumulated losses from prior years.

29

CELULOSA ARAUCO Y CONSTITUCION S.A. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Unaudited consolidated financial statements

June 30, 2023

Amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, except as indicated

The current policy is that an amount equivalent to the 40% of the distributable net income for each fiscal year will be distributed as dividends. Nevertheless, the Board of Directors may decide to distribute and pay dividends to the shareholders, to the extent that it expects the year to finalize with positive results and that the Company’s liquidity allows such distribution and payment.

v) Earning per share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to the parent company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, excluding the average number of shares in the Company held by a subsidiary, if such circumstance exists. Arauco has not performed any type of transaction with a potential dilutive effect that would cause diluted earnings per share to be different from basic earnings per share.

w) Impairment

Non-financial Assets

The recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment and other long-term assets with finite useful lives are measured whenever there are any circumstances indicating that the assets have to recognize an impairment loss. Among the circumstances to consider as evidence of impairment are significant declines in the assets’ market value, significant adverse changes in the technological environment, obsolescence or physical damages of assets and changes in the manner in which the asset is used or expected to be used). Arauco evaluates at the end of each reporting period whether there is any evidence of the indications above mentioned.

A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount however a reversal of an impairment loss shall not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years.

For the purposes of assessing impairment losses, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there is identifiable cash flows separately for each cash-generating unit. Non-financial assets, other than goodwill, which had recognized an impairment loss, are reviewed at the end of each reporting period whether there are any circumstances indicating that an impairment loss previously recognized may no longer exists or has decreased.

“Cash-generating units” are the smallest identifiable groups of those cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflow from other assets or groups of assets.

Goodwill

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful life are tested annually for impairment or whenever circumstances indicate it. The recoverable amount of an intangible asset is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.

30

CELULOSA ARAUCO Y CONSTITUCION S.A. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Unaudited consolidated financial statements

June 30, 2023

Amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, except as indicated

A cash-generating unit, for which goodwill has been allocated, is tested for impairment annually or more frequently when there are circumstances indicating that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to other assets pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss of goodwill is recognized directly in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.

Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for impairment testing purposes. The allocation is made between cash-generating units or groups of cash generating units expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

Financial Assets

At the end of each reporting period, an assessment is performed in order to identify whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets may have been impaired.

An allowance for doubtful accounts is established based on a measurement of expected losses using a simplified approach.

The allowance for doubtful accounts is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of receivables and the present value of estimated future cash flows. The carrying amount of the receivable is reduced through the use of the allowance. If the impairment loss decreases in later periods, it is reversed either directly or by adjusting the provision for doubtful accounts, with effect in profit or loss.

x) Employee Benefits

Arauco constitutes labor obligations for severance payable in all circumstances for certain of its employees with at least 5 years of work in the Company, based on the terms of the staff’s collective and individual bargaining agreements.

The related provision is an estimate of the years of service to be recognized as a future labor obligation liability, in accordance with contracts between Arauco and its employees and pursuant to actuarial valuation criteria for this type of liability. This post-employment benefit is considered a defined benefit plan.

The main factors considered for calculating the actuarial value of severance obligation for years of service are employee turnover, salary increases and life expectancy of the workers included in this benefit.

Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income in the year they are incurred.

These obligations are related to post-employee benefits in accordance with current standards.

This obligation is presented in line item “Trade and other current payables” in the consolidated statements of financial position.

z) Recent accounting pronouncements

a) Standards, interpretations and amendments that are mandatory for the first time for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2023:

Amendments and improvements	Content	Mandatory application for annual periods beginning on or after
IAS 1 and IAS 8	To IAS 1, Practice statement 2 and IAS 8, aim to improve accounting policy disclosures and to help users of the financial statements to distinguish between changes in accounting estimates and changes in accounting policies.	January 1, 2023
IAS 12	Deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction Require companies to recognize deferred tax on transactions that, on initial recognition give rise to equal amounts of taxable and deduct able temporary differences.	January 1, 2023
IAS 1	Presentation of financial statements clarifies that liabilities are classified as current or non-current depending on the rights that exist at the end of the reporting period. The classification is not affected by the entity’s expectations or events after the reporting date (for example, the receipt of a waiver or a breach of agreement).	January 1, 2023
IAS 12	International tax reform - pillar two model rules These amendments give companies temporary relief from accounting for deferred taxes arising from the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD) international tax reform.

CELULOSA ARAUCO Y CONSTITUCION S.A. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Unaudited interim consolidated financial statements

June 30, 2023

Amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, except as indicated

According to significant restrictions on the ability of subsidiaries to transfer funds to Arauco, in the form of cash dividends or repayment of borrowings and/or advances, we state the following:

Long-term debt with related entities - Mutual Agreement with Arauco Argentina S.A.

On June 5, 2017, Arauco signed a mutual agreement with its subsidiary Arauco Argentina S.A., pursuant to which this subsidiary received an amount of U.S.$ 250,000,000, which accrues an interest at the LIBOR interest rate for 180 days plus a fixed spread of 5.20%, with payments every six months on June 1 and December 1 of each year. As of the date of these interim consolidated financial statements, we are finalizing the change of the base rate to Term SOFR 6M, replacing the current base in LIBOR.

Since 2020, the Central Bank of the Argentine Republic (BCRA) established certain foreign exchange controls, preventing Arauco Argentina S.A. from repaying the amount of ThU.S.$ 160,000 owed under the mutual agreement described above which matured on June 1, 2022.

On July 14, 2022, Arauco Argentina S.A. paid ThU.S.$ 6,000 of the amount owed under the mutual agreement described above, remaining to pay ThU.S.$ 154,000 as of the date of these interim consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 14. INVESTMENTS IN SUBSIDIARIES

The main operations carried out as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are reported below:

On March 17, 2023, Arauco took over control of the company E2E S.A., acquiring the remaining 50% interest. The payment for this transaction amounted to ThCLP$ 102 (equivalent to ThU.S.$ 0.12).

On June 22, 2022, a cooperation agreement was signed with the Government of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. Signing this agreement is an important and preparatory step that will enable us to continue assessing the construction of a new pulp mill. If conditions allow – among which conditions are obtaining all necessary permits and board approval – this new plant would have an estimated production capacity of 2.5 million tons of short-fiber pulp and would require an estimated investment of approximately US$ 3 billion. For the same purposes, in August 2022 and through subsidiary Arauco Forest Brasil S.A., the company Arauco Celulose do Brasil S.A. was incorporated. This company participates in forestry-related activities, such as the formation of eucalyptus forests, logging, and electric power generation.

Reorganization

Arauco determined it necessary to reorganize its activity in the wood product segment by centralizing its investments in the wood market in an entity that allows a common direction and control. This is the reason why, on May 23, 2022, the company Arauco Wood Limited was created. Such international parent entity was incorporated in the United Kingdom, a country which is considered and valued as one of the main investment platforms and center global financial system, and known for its institutional stability.

In June and December 2022, Arauco, through its subsidiary Inversiones Arauco International Ltda. and the parent of the group, Celulosa Arauco y Constitución S.A., contributed their subsidiaries from the wood segment to the new company Arauco Wood Limited. These contributions were for a total amount of ThU.S.$ 1,989,972. This operation did not generate an effect within the consolidated statements of profit or loss.

With this reorganization, Arauco intends to achieve a more efficient international structure in a first-class financial center, thus generating an attractive investment focus for potential new investors or other market players. This centralization of the wood product segment will also allow a better and more efficient management, enhancing its investments with a solid structure and greater projections of profitability, growth and sustainability.

NOTE 15. INVESTMENTS IN ASSOCIATES

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, these are the main movements of investments in associates to report:

On August 8, 2022, the subsidiary Arauco Participações Florestais Ltda. of Brasil incorporated the company Falcão MS SPE S.A., and during the year 2022, Arauco contributed capital to the new company for ThR$ 49,985 (equivalents to ThU.S.$ 9,664). In 2023, Arauco contributed capital to Falcão MS SPE S.A. for ThR$ 11,270 (equivalents to ThU.S.$ 2,222).

NOTE 17. IMPAIRMENT OF ASSETS

In 2022, as a result of loss of dryer, an impairment provision was made for ThU.S.$ 10,500 in Valdivia mill, which was recognized into impairment provisions of assets.

In 2022, as a result of closing MDP line of Pien mill in Brasil, an impairment provision was made for ThU.S.$ 14,388, which amount include an impairment of goodwill for ThU.S.$ 3,895.

At the end of 2022, considering the current projections of future margins, exchange differences and the sustained increasing risk in the Argentine Republic, and applying the usual procedures for determining impairment in accordance with IFRS, in the subsidiary Arauco Argentina, an impairment was recorded in the cash generating unit for the manufacture of cellulose pulp in the amount of ThU.S.$ 127,605.

The premises included in this projection consider a discount rate of 22.07%, sales volume based on expected production data, sales prices based on the projection of international consultants and future investments of the machinery in its current state.

As of June 30, 2022 the subsidiaries of United States and Canada, impairment provisions associated with sold and recovered from property, plant and equipment were reversed for a total of ThU.S.$ 6,381 (ThU.S.$ 7,014 as of December 31, 2022).

All impairment provision charges are presented in the interim consolidated statement of profit or loss under other expenses by function, whose movements are shown below:

Goodwill

Goodwill is allocated to the groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

At the date of these interim consolidated financial statements, the balance of goodwill is ThU.S.$ 55,954 (ThU.S.$ 54,800 on December 31, 2022), as shown below:

	06-30-2023		12-31-2022
Goodwill	ThU.S.$		ThU.S.$
Arauco Canada Ltd. (Flakeboard Company Ltd)		40,723		40,676
Arauco do Brasil S.A. (Pien mill)		14,499		13,392
Arauco North America, Inc. (Prime-Line, Inc.)		732		732
Closing balance		55,954		54,800

	06-30-2023		12-31-2022
Goodwill movement	ThU.S.$		ThU.S.$
Opening balance at January 1		54,800		57,697
Increase (decrease) impairment		—		(3,895	)
Increase (decrease) in foreign exchange		1,154		998
Closing balance		55,954		54,800

Of the total of goodwill, ThU.S.$ 40,723 (ThU.S.$ 40,676 as of December 31, 2022) were generated by the acquisition of “Flakeboard” (currently Arauco Canada Ltd.), a company that, directly and/or through its subsidiaries, possesses and operates 7 panel plants, for which Arauco acquired and paid, on September 24, 2012, the price of ThU.S.$ 242,502 for the 100% interest ownership. The remaining balance of ThU.S.$ 732 corresponds to the acquisition of Prime-Line Inc., on September 1, 2019, for which Arauco North America Inc, a subsidiary of Arauco Canada Ltd. paid ThU.S.$ 18,880 for all the shares of said company.

The recoverable amount for Flakeboard’s cash generating unit was determined based on the calculations of its value in use, and this calculation was made using cash flow projections covering a 7-year term, a period time, which is considered to represent the cyclicality of the business performance, applying a nominal discount rate of 7% which reflects current market assessments for the wood products segment in North America.

Due to the investment in panel plant in Pien, Brazil, there is a goodwill of ThU.S.$ 14,499 (ThU.S.$ 13,392 as of December 31, 2022).

The recoverable amount for the Pien mill’s cash generating unit was determined based on the calculations of its value in use, and this calculation was made using cash flow projections covering a 5-year term based on the operational plan approved by the Administration, applying a 7.4% nominal discount rate that reflects current evaluations for the panel segment in Brazil.

As of June 30, 2023, the carrying value of the goodwill of the plants did not exceed their recoverable value, except at the end of December 2022 in Brazil for the MDF line of the Pien mill, was recognized an impairment of the goodwill, and it was for ThU.S.$ 3,895.

NOTE 18. PROVISIONS, CONTINGENT ASSETS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

The contingent liabilities for outstanding litigations are as follows:

Celulosa Arauco y Constitución S.A.

On April 26, 2023, Ingeniería y Construcción Sigdo Koppers S.A. (“ICSK”) filed before the Arbitration and Mediation Center of the Santiago Chamber of Commerce an arbitration claim against the Company, requesting the specific performance of contract No. 906, Civil Electromechanical Assembly Digester, Washing, Bleaching, Machine and Final Line, executed between the parties on June 18th, 2019 (“Contract”), also seeking the compensation of damages. The total sum claimed by ICSK amounts to $ 246,650,876,566 Chilean pesos (ThU.S.$ 307,675 as of June 30, 2023), plus adjustments. It is relevant to highlight that, according to ICSK’s claim, the above amount should be reduced by $ 60,657,576,943 Chilean pesos (ThU.S.$ 75,665 as of June 30, 2023), owed by ICSK to Arauco, once the claimed amount has been readjusted. ICSK also requests that the claimed sum be paid with current interest, computed as of April 2023.

On June 16, 2023, Arauco answered the claim filed by ICSK, requesting the rejection of the claim. Simultaneously, Arauco filed a counterclaim against ICSK, seeking a declaration that ICSK breached the term of the Contract and, consequently, for the arbitration court to order ICSK to pay the fine associated with such breach, which amounted, at the time the claim was answered, to the sum of $ 37,302,818,060 Chilean pesos (ThU.S.$ 46,532 as of June 30, 2023). Arauco also demanded the restitution of the total amount of $ 60,657,576,943 Chilean pesos (ThU.S.$ 75,665 as of June 30, 2023), plus adjustments and interest, paid to ICSK during the performance of the Contract as consideration for various items.

The arbitration is currently in its discussion period, as set out in the defined arbitration process.

Considering that the Company’s position is supported by sound legal arguments, it is reasonably likely that the Company will obtain a favorable outcome and therefore, as of June 30, 2023, Arauco has not made any provision whatsoever in connection with this contingency.

Celulosa Arauco y Constitución S.A., Forestal Arauco S.A., Maderas Arauco S.A. and Servicios Logísticos Arauco S.A.

1. On August 13, 2018, Asociación Gremial de Dueños de Camiones de Constitución (ASODUCAM) filed a complaint seeking the performance of a contract and claiming compensation for damages against Celulosa Arauco y Constitución S.A. before the Civil Court of Constitución (C-757-2018), Forestal Arauco S.A., Maderas Arauco S.A. and Servicios Logísticos Arauco S.A., The complaint is based on alleged breaches of some agreements for the allocation, distribution and supply of cargo volumes for the years 2001 and 2005, initially executed by associates of ASODUCAM with Forestal Arauco S.A., and then, allegedly, with Servicios Logísticos Arauco S.A., in favor of the other two defendants, Celulosa Arauco and Constitución S.A. and Maderas Arauco S.A. The complaint seeks to enforce the contract, plus $575,000,000 Chilean pesos (equal to ThU.S.$ 717 as of June 30, 2023) in compensation for damages. In the alternative, it claims (a) CLP$11,189,270,050 (equivalent to ThU.S.$ 13,958 as of June 30, 2023), for actual damages; (b) CLP$ 11,189,270,050 monthly during the entire course of the trial, until the termination of the contract is declared in the final ruling, for loss of profits, and (c) CLP$5,000,000,000 (equivalent to ThU.S.$ 6,237 as of June 30, 2023) for moral damages.

On August 28, 2018 the claim was served upon Celulosa Arauco y Constitución S.A., Forestal Arauco S.A. and Maderas Arauco S.A., but notification for Servicios Logísticos Arauco S.A. is pending.

By resolution dated February 28, 2023, the court ordered the case to be archived.

Forestal Arauco S.A.

On July 7, 2015 Inversiones Forestales Los Alpes Limitada and Forestal Neltume-Carrasco S.A. filed a claim against Forestal Arauco S.A. before the Civil Court of Angol (C-502-2015), in which they request that Forestal Arauco S.A. restitute the material possession of 1,855.9 hectares, which would be part of their property “Resto del Fundo Los Alpes”, which would have an area of approximately 2,700 hectares. Likewise, they requested that it be declared that the property is the exclusive domain of the actors, the restitution of the civil and natural fruits, in addition to the deteriorations that the property would have experienced, with litigation costs.

On May 29, 2019, the lawsuit was answered, and the counterclaim of the acquisitive prescription was filed.

On September 1, 2020, the court received the case. Moreover, the resolution was notified on August 30, 2022, along with the resolution to reactivate the discovery period.

On September 2, 2022, the company filed an abandonment incident of procedures, which is pending.

Considering that the Company’s position is based on solid legal grounds, there is a reasonable margin for obtaining a favorable result for the Company and therefore, as of June 30, 2023, Arauco has not made any provision whatsoever in connection with this contingency.

Arauco Argentina S.A.

Pursuant to law No. 25,080, the former Secretary of Agriculture, Livestock, Fishing and Foodstuffs, the enforcement agency referred to in the law approved, by Res. No. 952/2000, the forestry and industrial-forestry projects submitted by Arauco Argentina S.A. In the context of these projects, the Company afforested: 1) 4,777 hectares during 2000, in observance of its committed yearly plan; and 2) 23,012 hectares between 2000 and 2006 as a part of the multi-year afforestation plan. Likewise, a sawmill was built with installed capacity to produce 250,000 m3 of sawn timber per year.

On January 11, 2001, Arauco Argentina S.A. submitted an expansion for the approved industrial-forestry project. The expansion was approved via Res. No. 84/03 issued by the former Secretary of Agriculture, Livestock, Fishing and Foodstuffs. In accordance with the assumed obligations, the Company built a MDF board (panels) plant and afforested 8,089 hectares between 2001 and 2006.

Additionally, the Company has filed yearly forestry plans between years 2007 and 2020 for its local operations in the provinces of Misiones and Buenos Aires.

On March 25, 2019, the Secretary of Agriculture, Livestock and Fishing approved the resolution No. 2019-55-APN-SECAGYP#MPYT, approving the annual forestry plan for 2007. In addition, said organism through the resolution No. 2019-114-APN-SECAGYP#MPYT approved the annual forestry plan for 2009 on June 12, 2019, and through the resolution No. 2019-228-APN-SECAGYP#MPYT approved the annual forestry plan for 2008 on November 29, 2019. For this reason, Arauco Argentina S.A. may compute the exemption in the income tax related to the forest appraisal on the plantations to be harvested from the lands included in those plans as from the 2019 period.

In March 2005, Note No. 145/05 of the Subsecretary of Agriculture, Livestock and Afforestation suspended the benefit that exempted Arauco Argentina S.A. from paying export duties under Law No. 25,080. This measure is currently under discussion by the Company. On November 8, 2006, the V Chamber of the National Appeals Court for Adversarial Administrative and Federal Matters issued a ruling ordering Arauco Argentina S.A. to continue to enjoy an exemption from paying the exportation duties, in the same manner and scope it had prior to the suspension ordered by Note No. 145/05, if the clearance of merchandise is performed pursuant to the guarantee regime established in article 453, subsection a) of the Customs Code, for the exempted tax obligation. The judicial measure became effective beginning in March of 2007 by collateralization through the granting of bond (caution) policies for each shipment permits exempted from payment of export duty. The company maintains an assignment of funds equivalent to $ 23,821 June 30, 2023 for guaranteed export duties between 2007-2015, which appears under long-term provisions. Additionally, the Company filed a restitution claim for a total amount of ThU.S.$ 6,555, plus interest accrued from the service of the claim, corresponding to export duties between March 2005 and March 2007, as a result of the application of Note 145/05 issued by the Undersecretary of Agriculture, Livestock and Afforestation. The Company’s claim is being heard under case file No. 21830/2006 before the Federal Contentious Administrative Court No. 4. On October 28, 2019, a judgment of first instance was issued in said case, rejecting the claim and imposing the litigation costs on Arauco. Against that judgment, the Company filed an appeal and expressed the corresponding arguments in December 2019. On June 15, 2022, the Chamber of Appeals confirmed the judgement of first instance. On July 1, 2022, Arauco Argentina filed the Federal Extraordinary Appeal before the Supreme Court of Justice. The Chamber admitted the appeal lodged by Arauco regarding the federal matter of the litigation; however, the grounds pertaining to arbitrariness were dismissed. Arauco filed a direct complaint before the Supreme Court, seeking for the higher court to broaden its examination of the case and also address such argument. This resolution of this petition is still pending.

On the other hand, Arauco Argentina S.A. currently has a guarantee at an amount of $ 435,952,315 Argentine pesos (ThU.S.$ 1,698 as of June 30, 2023) in favor of the Secretary of Agriculture, Livestock and Fishing.

Arauco Argentina S.A. believes that it has complied with all of the obligations imposed upon it by the system set forth under Law No. 25,080.

On July 20, 2015, Arauco do Brasil was notified of the first-level administrative ruling which partially upheld the infringement. Against this ruling, a Voluntary Appeal was filed seeking to revoke the Infringement Notice before the Brazilian Administrative Tax Council (Conselho Administrativo de Recursos Fiscais de Brasil or “CARF”), which is the second administrative level.

The CARF’s decision was issued on May 16, 2017 and took into consideration certain arguments presented by the Company regarding the premium but preserving other charges. On September 27, 2018, Arauco do Brasil was notified of the CARF’s decision, for which Arauco do Brasil S.A. filed an appeal for declaration embargoes, to elicit clarifications from the CARF regarding certain points of the decision. On January 25, 2019, the CARF ruled that there were no clarifications or omissions to be made and, consequently, granted a term for filing the last remedy within the administrative realm (“Special Remedy”). This Special Remedy was submitted before the Upper Chamber of Fiscal Remedies of the CARF (CSRF) on February 11, 2019, reiterating the Company’s defense allegations regarding the matters and charges that remained in such process.

On August 28, 2020, the Company was served with an intermediate decision in Grievance of Instrument, issued by CARF that divided the claim into two parts, one at the administrative level and the other one at the judicial level:

I – The administrative level fine(deductibility of interest and isolated fine of 50%) whose estimated amount of R$34.5 million (equivalent to ThU.S.$ 7,204 as of June 30, 2023). Pursuant to these requirements on March 27, 2023, Arauco do Brasil adhered to the government program of reduction of fiscal litigation which permits a reduction of the 65% of the entire amount of the debt through the payment of the 35% of the debt in two ways: (a) payment in cash of the 30%, totaling R$3.7 million (ThU.S.$ 767 as of June 30, 2023) and (b) payment of 70% of fiscal losses, totaling R$8.6 million (ThU.S.$ 1,790 as of June 30, 2023).

Subsequently, Arauco do Brasil performed the payment in cash and also the offset with tax losses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Federal Reserve of Brazil (Brazilian tax service) must confirm Arauco do Brasil’s compliance with the program, thus closing the part of the case which was being reviewed before an administrative venue.

II – Part of the case that remained in a judicial venue (contractual expenses deducted in the purchase of Tafisa Brasil; interest and legal expenses on debts in the amnesty program; Imposto de Renda Pessoa Jurídica, or “IRPJ”, and lower Contribuição Social sobre o Lucro Líquido, or “CSLL” whose updated estimated amount is R$ 42,167,507 (ThU.S.$ 8,803 as of June 30, 2023). Arauco do Brasil filed the Tax Debt Annulment Action.

On March 9, 2023, the trial court issued a judgment that was partially favorable to Arauco do Brasil, upholding the aforementioned claims, and thus setting aside the portion of the debt corresponding to R$ 26,554,677 (ThU.S.$ 5,544 as of June 30, 2023). However, the judgment rejected the claim related to interest and legal expenses on debts under the amnesty program, which amount to R$ 15,612,831 (ThU.S.$ 3,259 as of June 30, 2023).

Arauco filed a motion to clarify the ruling, which was partially upheld to correct a material error in the judgment. On May 29, 2023, the Federal Reserve filed an appeal seeking the revocation of the judgment in the section that was favorable to Arauco, while, on June 26, 2023, Arauco also filed an appeal, but seeking the ratification of the judgment regarding interest and legal expenses on debts in the amnesty program. Arauco filed its counter-arguments to the Appeal of the National Treasury and is currently awaiting the filing of counter-arguments by the National Treasury to subsequently send the case to the Court for an appellate judgment.

Considering that the Company’s position is supported by solid legal arguments, there is a reasonable margin of obtaining a favorable result for the Company and that is why, as of June 30, 2023, Arauco has not established any provision for this contingency.

2) In 2013, a service provider instituted a civil lawsuit against us seeking compensation for damages allegedly caused by Arauco’s unilateral termination of its contract in connection with the implementation of the MDF 2 line of the Jaguariaiva mill. On November 01, 2021, the Civil Court of Curitiba issued its ruling, ordering Arauco to pay to the service provider an amount of ThR$ 84,000 (ThU.S.$ 17,537 as of June 30, 2023) in consideration of the alleged damages borne by the service provider during the course of the services contracts and as a result of its early termination by Arauco.

After the judgment, we were summoned and on March 8, 2022 we filed an Appeal, and the opposing party was summoned to present arguments on our appeal and filed the petition on April 11, 2022, also appealing the judgment.

In April 2023, a favorable ruling was handed down in our Appeal and we succeeded in annulling the judgment so that the case could return to its origin. This annulment ruling will also affect the expert evidence, which will have to be produced again. As a result, the provision of R$ 42,945,528 (ThU.S.$ 8,966 as of June 30, 2023) was fully reversed.

In May 2023, the contractor company filed a Motion for Clarification presenting alleged omissions, in an attempt to preserve the decision or at least the evidence already produced. Review of these remedies is currently pending.

Arauco Industria de México, S.A. de C.V. (before Maderas y Sintéticos de México, S.A. de C.V.

The total amount of omitted tax, updates, surcharges, and fines assessed to the company amounts to $ 423,687,300 Mexican pesos (ThU.S.$ 24,740 as of June 30, 2023).

Currently, additional evidence was submitted, and subsequently, the tax authorities must issue a ruling which, if unfavorable, could be challenged by the Company before the Federal Court of Administrative Justice.

Considering that the Company’s position is supported by solid legal arguments, there is a reasonable margin to obtain a favorable outcome for the Company and therefore, as of June 30, 2023, Arauco has not yet made any provision for this contingency.

At the closing date, there are no other contingencies in which the Companies act as obligor, that may significantly affect their financial, economic or operational conditions.

Provisions recorded as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are as follows:

The amortization of customer relationship and computer software is presented in the interim consolidated statements of profit or loss under the administrative expenses line item.

NOTE 20. BIOLOGICAL ASSETS

Biological assets comprise forestry plantations, mainly radiata and taeda pine, and to a lesser extent eucalyptus. The plantations are located in Chile, Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay.

As of June 30, 2023 Arauco had a total surface of 1.7 million hectares of which 963 thousand hectares are used for forestry planting, 500 thousand hectares are native forest, 105 thousand hectares are used for other purposes and 127 thousand hectares not yet planted. Lands corresponding to native forest, lands used for other purposes and lands not yet planted are presented in property, plant & equipment, Forest plantations are presented in Biological Assets.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, the production volume of logs totaled 9.5 million m3 (10.8 million m3 as of June 30, 2023).

Measurements of fair value of Arauco’s biological assets are classified as Level 3, due to the fact that inputs are not observable. However, this information reflects the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset, including assumptions about risk.

These unobservable inputs were developed using the best information available and includes internal data from Arauco. These unobservable inputs can be adjusted if the available information indicates that other market participants would use different information or there is something specific in Arauco that is not available to other market participants.

The main considerations in determining the fair value of biological assets include the following:

• Arauco uses discounted expected future cash flows of its forest plantations, which are based on a harvest projection date for all existing plantations.

• Current forestry plantations are projected based on a net volume that will not decrease, with a minimum growth equivalent to the current supply demand.

• Future plantations are not considered.

• The harvest of forestry plantations supplies raw materials for all other products that Arauco produces and trades. By directly controlling the development of forests that will be processed, Arauco ensures high quality timber for each of its products.

• Expected cash flows are determined in terms of harvest and expected sale of forestry products, associated with the demand from the Company’s own industrial centers and sales to third parties at market prices. Sales margin of the different products that are harvested in the forest is also considered in the valuation. The changes in the value of the plantations pursuant to the criteria defined above are accounted for in the results for the period, as established in IAS 41. These changes are presented in the interim consolidated statements of profit or loss under the line item other income per function, which as of June 30, 2023 amounted to ThU.S.$ 102,398 (ThU.S.$ 130,564 as of June 30, 2022). The appraisal of biological assets resulted in a greater cost of the lumber sold in comparison to the real incurred cost, which is presented included in the cost of sales which as of June 30, 2023 amounted to ThU.S.$ 138,446 (ThU.S.$ 146,534 as of June 30, 2022).

• Forestry plantations are harvested according to the needs of Arauco’s production plants.

• The discount rates used are 7.0% in Chile, 8.3% Brazil, 21% in Argentina and 9% in Uruguay.

• It is expected that prices of harvested timber are constant in real terms based on market prices.

• Cost expectations with respect to the lifetime of the forests are constant based on estimated costs included in the projections made by Arauco.

• The average crop age by species and country is:

	Chile		Argentina		Brazil		Uruguay
Pine		24		15		15		—
Eucalyptus		12		10		7		10

The following table sets forth changes in fair value of biological assets considering variations in significant assumptions considered in calculating the fair value of the assets:

		ThU.S.$
Discount rate	0.5		(106,343	)
	-0.5		113,496
Margins (%)	10		420,968
	-10		(420,968	)

The significant unobservable input data used in the measurement of the fair value of biological assets are discount rates and sales margins of the different products that are harvested from the forest. Increases (decreases) in any of these input data considered in isolation would result in a smaller or greater fair value measurement.

The adjustment to fair value of biological assets minus sale costs is recorded in the interim consolidated statements of profit or loss, under the line item other income or other expenses, depending on whether it corresponds to profits or losses.

Forestry plantations classified as current biological assets are those to be harvested and sold within twelve months after the reporting period.

The Company has contracted fire insurance policies for its forestry plantations, which in conjunction with the Company’s resources, allow risks to be minimized.

As of the date of these interim consolidated financial statements, there are no committed disbursements for the acquisition of biological assets.

Detail of Biological Assets Pledged as Security

As of June 30, 2023, there were no forestry plantations pledged as security.

Detail of Biological Assets with Restricted Ownership

As of the date of these interim consolidated financial statements, there are no biological assets with restricted ownership.

No significant government grants have been received.

23.2 Fair Value Hierarchy of Financial Assets and Liabilities

The assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the consolidated statements of financial position as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, have been measured based on the valuation methodologies provided in IFRS 13. The methodologies applied for each financial instrument are classified according to their hierarchy as follows:

• Level 1: Securities or quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

• Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and

• Level 3: Inputs for the assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

23.3 Explanation of the valuation of Financial Instruments.

Cash and cash equivalent and accounts receivable

The carrying amount of accounts receivable, cash and cash equivalents (including mutual funds), and other financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of such instruments.

Derivative financial instruments

Arauco’s current derivatives are valued under the cash flow discount method. These flows are discounted at the rate applicable according to the transaction’s and counterparties’ risk, using an internal methodology based on the information obtained from Bloomberg.

Given that our cross-currency swaps correspond to future flows in UF, U.S. dollars and Euros, Arauco calculates the current value of such flows by using the UF zero coupon curve, dollar zero coupon and the Euro zero coupon.

The fair value of the interest rate swap contracts is calculated by reference to the rate differential between the agreed upon rate and the market rate as of the end date of these interim consolidated financial statements.

The fair value of the currency forward contracts is calculated by reference to the current forward exchange rates of contracts with similar maturity profiles.

The fair value of zero cost collar contracts is calculated by reference to the price differential between the agreed price range and the market price of the hedge’s object.

The counterparty risk uses the Z-Spread obtained from the curve of the bonds issued by counterparties, and they are deducted from each flow as appropriate.

Financial Liabilities

The fair value of bonds issued was determined with reference to quoted market prices as they have standard terms and conditions.

The fair value of bank borrowings was determined based on discounted cash flow analysis applying the corresponding discount yield curves to the remaining term to maturity.

Disclosures of the fair value of financial liabilities at amortized cost are determined via the use of discounted cash flows, calculated over variables of the observable markets as of the date of informing the interim consolidated financial statements, and correspond to Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Arauco applies the simplified approach regarding the expected losses from commercial debtors, which allows for the use of an estimate of expected credit losses over the instrument’s lifespan for all commercial accounts receivable. In order to establish this estimate, the commercial debtors have been grouped in relation to the corresponding risks for sales conditions as well as for tranches, including clients that are up-to-date or in default.

Explanation regarding the Sales Risk with Letters of Credit

The sales with letters of credit mainly occur in markets in Asia and the Middle East. Periodically, a credit assessment is conducted regarding the banks that issue the letters of credit with the purpose of obtaining their score over the basis of risk-qualification ratings, country-specific risk and financial statements. The decision of approving the issuing bank or asking for confirmation of the letter of credit is made in consideration to this assessment.

Explanation of the Sales Risk with Credit Line

Sales on credit are subject to the credit limit for each customer. The approval or rejection of a credit limit for all term sales is conducted by the Corporate Credit Sub-Division, as well as by the Credit and Collections area for North America, Brazil and Argentina, which report to the Corporate Finance Division. The regulations and procedures applicable for the correct control and risk management over the sales on credit are ruled by the Credit Policy.

A procedure that must be applied by all the companies of the Arauco group has been established for the approval and/or modification of client credit lines. Credit line requests are entered to the SAP that analyzes all available information. Afterwards, the same are either approved or rejected in each one of the internal committees of each company belonging to the Arauco group, depending on the maximum amount authorized by the Credit Policy. Lines of credit are renewed during this internal process on a yearly basis.

All sales are automatically controlled by a credit verification system, which has been configured to block any orders from clients who are delinquent in a given percentage of a debt and/or from clients whose line of credit, as of the time of the product’s shipping, has been exceeded or is overdue.

In order to minimize the credit risk for term or Open Account sales, it is Arauco’s policy to take out insurance to cover the export sales of companies Celulosa Arauco y Constitución S.A., Maderas Arauco S.A., Forestal Arauco S.A., Arauco Argentina S.A., and Arauco do Brasil S.A., as well as the domestic sales of Arauco Europe Coöperatief U.A., Arauco Argentina S.A., Araucomex S.A. de C.V., Arauco Industria de México, S.A. de C.V., Arauco Peru S.A., Arauco North America, Inc., Arauco Canada Ltd., Celulosa Arauco y Constitución S.A., Maderas Arauco S.A., Arauco Florestal Arapoti S.A., Arauco Forest Brasil S.A., Arauco do Brasil S.A. and Arauco Industria de Paineis S.A. Arauco works with credit insurance company Allianz Trade For Multinationals (Aa3 rating, as per risk rating companies Moody’s).

As another way of minimizing risk and supporting a line of credit approved by the Credit Committee through guarantees, Arauco holds guarantees such as mortgages, pledges, Standby letters of credit, bank performance bonds, checks, promissory notes, borrowings or any other that could be required under the laws of each country. The total amount held in guarantees amounts to ThU.S.$ 106,327, effective as of June 30, 2023, as summarized in the following chart. The procedure for guarantees is regulated by Arauco’s Policy on Guarantees, whose purpose is to control their accounting, due date and custody.

Guarantees Arauco group (ThU.S.$)
Guarantees debtors (received from clients)
Certificate of deposits	3,017	2.84	%
Standby	10,849	10.20	%
Promissory notes	77,352	72.75	%
Finance	1,802	1.70	%
Mortgage	1,078	1.01	%
Pledge	632	0.59	%
Loan agreement	11,597	10.91	%
Total guarantees	106,327	100.0	%

The maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the value at amortized cost of the Debtors’ account for sales registered as of the date of this report, minus the percentage of sales insured by the aforementioned credit insurance companies and the guarantees granted in favor of Arauco.

In summary, the open account debt covered by the various insurance policies and guarantees amounts to 99.2% and, therefore, Arauco’s portfolio exposure amounts to 0.8%.

Secured open accounts receivable	ThU.S.$		%
Total open accounts receivable		437,739		100.0	%
Secured receivables (*)		434,167		99.2	%
Unsecured receivables		3,572		0.8	%

(*) Insured debt is deemed to be the portion of accounts receivable that is covered by a credit company or by guarantees such as standby letters of credit, mortgages, performance bonds, among others.

Investment Policy:

Arauco has an Investment Policy which identifies and limits the financial instruments and the entities into which the Arauco companies, in particular Celulosa Arauco y Constitucion S.A., are authorized to invest. The Company’s Treasury Department is centralized with operations in Chile, USA, Canada and México. The Head Office is responsible for carrying out investments, cash flow surplus investments, and short and long-term debt subscriptions. Exceptions to this rule apply to short and long-term debt, and will be for specific investments made through other companies where authorization is required from the Chief Financial Officer.

For financial instruments, the only permitted investments are fixed income investments with adequate liquidity. Each instrument has defined classifications and limits, depending on duration and type of issuer.

Regarding intermediaries (such as banks, securities brokers and dealers of mutual funds that are bank affiliates), a scoring methodology is used to determine the relative degree of risk of each intermediary based on their financial position and assign score points that result in a credit risk rating to each intermediary. Arauco uses this scoring system to determine its investment limits for each intermediary.

The required information to evaluate the various criteria are obtained from published financial statements from the banks under evaluation and from the credit risk ratings of short and long-term debt securities obtained from rating agencies authorized by the Commission for the Financial Market (Fitch Ratings Chile, Humphreys and Feller Rate).

Any necessary exceptions regarding investment limits in each particular instrument or entity must have the authorization from Arauco’s Chief Financial Officer.

23.10.2 Type of Risk: Liquidity Risk

Description

This risk corresponds to Arauco’s ability to fulfill its financial obligations upon maturity.

Explanation of Liquidity Risk Exposure and How This Risk Arises

Arauco’s exposure to liquidity risk is mainly from its obligations to bondholders, banks and financial institutions, creditors and other payables. Liquidity risk may arise if Arauco is unable to meet the net cash flow requirements, which sustain its operations under both normal and exceptional circumstances.

Explanation of Objectives, Policies and Processes for Risk Management, and Measurement Methods

The Corporate Financial Management Division monitors on an ongoing basis the Company’s cash flow forecasts based on short and long-term forecasts and available financing alternatives. In order to manage the risk level of financial assets, Arauco follows its investment policy.

CELULOSA ARAUCO Y CONSTITUCION S.A. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Unaudited interim consolidated financial statements

June 30, 2023

Amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, except as indicated

Regarding the Libor rate and its discontinuity, at the end of June 2023 Arauco maintains 4.09% of its total debt at said rate and it is not estimated that the effect of its elimination will be material. Additionally, Arauco maintains interest rate derivatives for 99.58% of its Libor rate based debt. The credits set at the Libor rate that Arauco maintains at the closing date of these interim consolidated financial statements generally include provisions that allow the rate to be modified in the event of situations such as that given by the discontinuation of Libor rates. Notwithstanding the automatic conversion mechanisms to alternative rates, Arauco has been finalizing negotiations with its counterparties in recent months to change the base rates from Libor to SOFR or Term SOFR.

As of June 30, 2023, it is estimated that this change will not have a significant impact on Arauco’s results.

Guarantees

As of the date of these interim consolidated financial statements, Arauco has financial assets of approximately MU.S.$ 20 that have been pledged to third parties (beneficiaries), as direct guarantee. If Arauco does not fulfill its obligations, the guarantors could execute the guarantees.

As of June 30, 2023, the total assets pledged as an indirect guarantee were MU.S.$ 450. In contrast to direct guarantees, indirect guarantees are given to secure obligations assumed by a third party.

On September 29, 2011, Arauco entered into a Security Agreement under which it granted a non-joint guarantee limited to 50% of the obligations of the Uruguayan companies (joint ventures) Celulosa y Energía Punta Pereira S.A. and Zona Franca Punta Pereira S.A., under the IDB Facility Agreement in the amount of up to MU.S.$ 454 and the Finnvera Guaranteed Facility Agreement in the amount of up to MU.S.$ 900. Both borrowing agreements were signed with the International Development Bank. Such guarantee is included in the table below, under indirect guarantees. As of June 30, 2023 Finnvera Facility Agreement payment ended, finishing the related indirect guarantee.

23.10.3 Type of Risk: Market Risk – Exchange Rate

Description

Market risk arises from the probability of being affected by losses from fluctuations in currencies exchange rates in which assets and liabilities are denominated, in a functional currency other than the functional currency of Arauco.

Explanation of Currency Risk Exposure and How This Risk Arises

Arauco is exposed to the foreign currency risk from currency fluctuations arising from sales, purchases and obligations undertaken in foreign currencies, such as the Chilean peso, Euro, Brazilian real or other foreign currencies. In the case of significant exchange rate variations, the Chilean peso is the currency that represents the main currency risk. See Note 11 for details assets and liabilities classified by currency.

Explanation of Risk Management Objectives, Policies and Processes, and Measurement Methods

Arauco performs sensitivity analyses to measure the effect of this variable on equity and net result.

Sensitivity analysis considers a variation of +/- 10% of the exchange rate over the Chilean peso. This fluctuation range is considered possible given current market conditions as of the date of these interim consolidated financial statements. With all other variables at a constant rate, a U.S. dollar exchange rate variation of +/- 10% in relation to the Chilean peso would mean a change in the net income year after tax +/- 6.78% (equivalent to ThU.S.$ -/+ 6,875), and +/- 0.05% of equity (equivalent to ThU.S.$ -/+ 4,125).

Additionally, a sensitivity analysis is carried out assuming a variation of +/- 10% in the closing exchange rate on the Brazilian real, which is considered a possible range of fluctuation given the market conditions as of the date of these interim consolidated financial statements. With all the other variables constant, a variation of +/- 10% in the exchange rate of the dollar on the Brazilian real would mean a variation on the net income after tax +/- 7.54% (equivalent to ThU.S.$-/+$ 7,648) and a change on the equity of +/- 1.49% (equivalent to ThU.S. -/+$ 121,553).

23.10.4 Type of Risk: Market Risk – Interest rate risk

Description

Interest rate risk refers to the sensitivity of the value of financial assets and liabilities in terms of interest rate fluctuations.

Explanation of Interest Rate Risk Exposure and How This Risk Arises

Arauco is exposed to risks due to interest rate fluctuations for bonds issued, bank borrowings and financial instruments that bear interest at a variable rate.

Explanation of Risk Management Objectives, Policies and Processes, and Measurement Methods

Arauco completes its risk analysis by reviewing its exposure to changes in interest rates. As of June 30, 2023, 6.3% our financial debt accrues interest at variable rates. A change of +/- 10% in the interest rate is considered a possible range of fluctuation. Such market conditions would affect the income after tax at rate of +/- 1.82% (equivalent to ThU.S.$-/+ 1,844) and +/- 0.014% (equivalent to ThU.S.$-/+ 1,106) on equity.

23.10.5 Type of Risk: Market Risk – Price of Pulp Risks

Description

Pulp prices are determined by world and regional market conditions. Prices fluctuate based on demand, production capacity, commercial strategies adopted by large-scale forestry companies, pulp and paper producers and by the availability of substitutes.    

Explanation of Price Risk Exposure and How This Risk Arises

Pulp prices are reflected in revenue from sales and directly affect the net income for the period.

As of June 30, 2023, revenue due to pulp sales accounted for 43,4% of total sales. Pulp prices are fixed on a monthly basis in accordance with the market. Forward contracts or other financial instruments are not used for pulp sales.

Explanation of Risk Management Objectives, Policies and Processes, and Measurement Methods

This risk is approached in different ways. Arauco has a team of specialists who perform periodic market and competition analyses, providing tools to analyze and evaluate trends and adjust forecasts. Similarly, Arauco performs price financial sensitivity analysis in order to take the necessary safeguards to confront different scenarios in the best possible manner.    

Sensitivity analysis considers a variation of +/- 10% in the average pulp price, a possible fluctuation range given current market conditions at the date of the closing balance. With all other variables constant, a variation of +/- 10% in the average pulp price would mean a variation of +/- 80.5% (equivalent to ThU.S.$-/+ 81,639) on the income for the year after tax and +/- 0.6% (equivalent to ThU.S.$ -/+ 48,983) on equity.

Finally, depending on its needs, it buys logs and chips from third parties which are consumed or sold to the wood products segment.

The Pulp reportable segment uses wood exclusively from pine and eucalyptus plantations for the production of different classes of wood cellulose or pulp. Bleached pulp is mainly used as raw material for producing printing and writing paper, as well as toilet paper and high-quality wrapping paper. Unbleached pulp is used to produce packing paper, filters, fiber cement products, dielectric paper and others. Fluff pulp is mainly used in the production of diapers and female hygiene products. On the other hand, dissolving pulp is used as raw material for the manufacture of different fabrics.

Arauco has seven plants: five in Chile, one in Argentina and one in Uruguay (50% property of Arauco), and they have a total production capacity of approximately 5.2 million tons per year. Pulp is sold in more than 42 countries, mainly in Asia and Europe.

NOTE 26. DISTRIBUTABLE NET PROFIT AND EARNINGS PER SHARE

Distributable net profit

As a general policy, the Board of Directors of Arauco agreed that the net profit to be distributed as dividend is determined based on realized net gains/(losses) of any relevant variations in the value of unrealized assets and liabilities, which are excluded from the calculation of net profit during the period such changes are made.

As a result of the foregoing, for purposes of determining the distributable net profit of the Company, which is the same considered for calculating the minimum dividend required and additional dividend, the following unrealized gains/losses are excluded from the net profit for the year:

1) Unrealized gains/losses relating to the fair value recorded for forestry assets under IAS 41, adding them back to distributable net profit when they are realized through sale or disposed of by other means.

2) Those generated through the acquisition of entities. These results will be added back to net profit when they are realized through sale.

The deferred taxes associated with the amounts described in 1) and 2) above are also excluded.

Amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars, except as indicated

As of December 31, 2022 Arauco in the financial statements recognized the balance of minimum dividend provision of the parent company for ThU.S.$ 186,903. In December 2022 Arauco paid a provisional dividend for ThU.S.$ 183,971 decreasing the minimum dividend provision.

In 2023, the amount of ThU.S.$ 92,719 presented in the interim consolidated statement of changes in equity was provisioned, corresponding to an additional and extraordinary dividend of 10% to be paid for the profits of the parent company of 2022.

For the profits of the fiscal year 2022 and for subsequent fiscal years, an amount equivalent to the 40% of the distributable net income for each fiscal year will be distributed as dividends. Nevertheless, the Board of Directors may decide to distribute and pay dividends to the shareholders, to the extent that it expects the year to finalize with positive results and that the Company’s liquidity allows such distribution and payment.

The following table details the adjustments made for the determination of distributable net profit as of June 30, 2023 and 2022:

	Distributable net profit
	06-30-2023 ThU.S.$			06-30-2022 ThU.S.$

Total adjustments		36,274			21,155
Distributable net profit		(65,041	)		654,032
40%		—			261,613

Due to the fact that the distributable net profit as of June 30, 2023 resulted in a loss, no amount related to the 2023 period was provisioned on that date.

Basic and diluted earnings per share

Basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity holders of parent by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding. Arauco does not have any shares with potential dilutive effect.

Our Adjusted EBITDA was 20.5% higher than the first quarter of 2023, totaling US$226.6 million. Net Financial Debt increased by US$743.6 million or 13.6% and our Net Debt/LTM EBITDA ended up in 4.59x, an increase when compared to the 3.17x reached during the first quarter of 2023.

2Q 2023 RESULTS Income Statement Revenues ARAUCO’s revenues reached US$1,408.9 million in the second quarter of 2023, a decrease of 2.1% when compared to the previous quarter. This variation is mostly explained by lower revenues in our pulp division, due to a decrease in average prices of 21.3%, offset by a 16.4% increase in sales volume. On the other hand, revenues for our wood products division were 4.0% higher, due to a 9.1% increase in sales volume, offset by a 4.5% decrease in average prices. The following table shows a breakdown of our revenues by business segment: In US$ Million Q2 2023 Q1 2023 Q2 2022 QoQ YoY Pulp    586.8 648.4 759.5 -9.5% -22.7% Wood Products 822.2 790.9 1,107.5 4.0% -25.8% Total 1,408.9 1,439.5 1,867.1 -2.1% -24.5% Revenue’s Breakdown by business segment

2Q 2023 RESULTS Cost of sales Increased by 15.6% or US$161.6 million compared to the first quarter of 2023. This is mostly explained by increases in Depreciation and amortization due to Arauco’s line 3 and Timber due to higher sales volume and cost of timber. Additionally, there was an increase in Forestry labor costs related to increases in sales volume and subcontractor fees in our forestry operations.    In US$ Million Q2 2023 Q1 2023 Q2 2022 QoQ YoY    Timber 247.5 210.2 221.8 17.8% 11.6% Forestry labor costs 171.5 150.8 157.9 13.7% 8.6% Depreciation and amortization 142.5 101.1 105.3 41.0% 35.3% Depreciation for right of use 5.6 6.7 10.4 -16.6% -46.4% Maintenance costs 93.7 81.4 78.2 15.1% 19.8% Chemical costs 165.1 158.5 188.5 4.2% -12.4% Sawmill services 31.6 26.1 35.0 21.5% -9.6% Other raw materials and indirect 136.8 120.3 116.5 13.7% 17.5% costs Energy and fuel 70.5 62.9 62.9 12.0% 12.1% Cost of electricity 18.8 15.0 11.4 25.9% 65.0% Wage, salaries and severance 111.9 101.2 107.9 10.6% 3.7% indemnities Cost of Sales 1,195.6 1,034.0 1,095.8 15.6% 9.1% Administrative expenses Increased by 7.6% or US$11.4 million, when compared to the previous quarter, mostly due to an increase in Computer services and Property taxes, patents and municipality rights, offset by a decrease in Wages, Salaries and Severance Indemnities.

2Q 2023 RESULTS Other expenses Decreased by 81.5% or US$170.4 million when compared to the first quarter of 2023. This is mostly explained by a decrease in Operating expenses related to plant stoppages, mostly due to the high operating expenses accounted in the first quarter related to the ramp up process of our Arauco mill (line 3) and operational shutdowns of our Constitución and Nueva Aldea mills. Also, in relation to loss of forests, we accounted in this quarter US$22.8 million in income due to a provision for compensations from insurance companies related to the last forest fire season.    In US$ Million Q2 2023 Q1 2023 Q2 2022 QoQ YoY Legal payments 4.4 2.3 2.4 90.2% 82.4% Impairment provision 2.0 3.5 3.6 -43.0% -43.6% property, plant and equipment and others Operating expenses related 40.8 140.1 19.5 -70.9% 108.9% to plant stoppages Project expenses 2.6 0.9 6.4 179.4% -58.9% Loss (gain) from asset sales 3.0 0.9 3.1 238.5% -2.9% Loss and repair of assets 0.1 8.3 11 -99.1% -99.3% Loss of forests (22.8) 42.9 2.3 -153.3% -1075.8% Other taxes 4.9 6.5 5.5 -23.5% -10.8% Other expenses (donations, repayments insurance) 3.6 3.5 5.4 2.9% 33.3% Other expenses 38.6 209.0 58.9 -81.5% -34.4% Foreign exchange differences Showed a net loss of US$19.9 million, US$3.8 million lower than the first quarter. The main significant effects are given by the variation of local currencies in the countries where we have industrial operations, especially Argentina.    Income tax In the first quarter, income tax reached US$26.5 million, a US$31.1 million decrease when compared with the US$57.6 million accounted on the previous quarter.

2Q 2023    RESULTS Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2023 was US$226.6 million, a 20.5% or US$38.6 million increase when compared to the previous quarter.    There was an increase in the Adjusted EBITDA of both pulp and wood products business segments. The main increase, 29.3%, came from the pulp division due to last quarter´s higher expenses related to the ramp up process of Line 3 and non-scheduled mill stoppages. Additionally, in this quarter we received an insurance payment in relation to the Valdivia mill. Our wood products division increased by 12.0%, mainly due to higher revenues.

Pulp Adjusted EBITDA The Adjusted EBITDA for our pulp business segment reached US$100.4 million during this quarter, which translates to a 29.3% or US$22.7 million increase compared to the first quarter of 2023. Pulp EBITDA Mg reached 17.1%, 5.1% higher than the previous quarter. Wood Products Adjusted EBITDA The Adjusted EBITDA for our wood products business was US$152.4 million during this quarter, which translates to a 12.0% or US$16.4 million increase, compared to the previous quarter.                Wood products EBITDA Mg was 18.5%, 1.3% higher than the previous quarter.

2Q 2023 RESULTS Pulp Business During the second quarter, the market weakened with an increase in short fiber pulp supply due to the ramp up of Arauco’s Line 3 and the new UPM´s mill in Uruguay. Additionally, the low season began during the quarter, which, together with lower economic activity in various regions generated lower demand for pulp. Total world inventories followed the trend of the first quarter and continued to rise, reaching levels not seen for several years. In China, the market was stable, final product prices in the paper industry decreased, and the tissue industry tried to increase prices. However, the industry remained cautious due to low seasonality. The quarter began with pulp prices declining, but towards the end of the quarter stabilized in long fiber and increased slightly in short fiber. Low prices have prompted pulp buyers to start rebuilding their pulp inventories. Supply increased due to new mills and the rerouting of Europe shipments to China. In Europe, the demand for paper remained low. Customers with high inventories of final products and raw materials, however they managed to maintain relatively stable prices for their products. By the middle of the quarter, the tissue industry began to weaken. Regarding the supply of pulp, during the quarter there was a lot of spot supply from other producers, which was also reflected in high inventories of pulp in the ports. The prices of short fiber and long fiber decreased during the quarter, being greater in short fiber since customers pushed to reduce as much as possible the difference in net prices with China. The dissolving pulp market during the second quarter was weaker; therefore, some price decreases were made. Additionally, during the quarter the low season began, which implies a decrease in the demand. Production in the second quarter of 2023 was affected by the scheduled maintenance stoppages of Nueva Aldea and Montes del Plata mills and the Valdivia mill dryer replacement stoppage. Additionally, the MAPA project continued with its production curve as planned.    Production and Sales Volume (In thousand tonnes) 810 781 813 812 765 697 Q2 2022 Q1 2023 Q2 2023 Production Sales

2Q 2023 RESULTS    Wood Products Business Production and Sales Volume: Panels (1) (In thousand m3) Panels Sales volume increased 5.6% partially offset by a 1.0% decrease in average prices during the second quarter of 2023. In this second quarter of 2023, volumes and prices continued to be affected by the increase in exports from Brazil to the rest of the region, especially in MDF. On the demand side, the downward effect persists due to a scenario in South America of high inflation, higher interest rates, currency devaluation against the dollar, high inventories, and political uncertainty in some countries.    Sawn timber Production and Volume: Sawn Timber (2) Sales    Sales volume increased 17.3%, offset by a, 11.6% decrease in average prices.                (In thousand m3) China was affected by real estate problems, restrictions associated with Covid and low economic growth. Lastly, rest of Asia and Europe remained affected by high inventories, high interest rates and geopolitical uncertainty. In the US, the second quarter had an improvement in demand for Remanufactured Wood Products although volumes and prices are still significantly lower than in 2022 as a result of the effects of high inflation in the region, rate increases, high inventories in the logistics chain and higher supply from Asia and Latin America.                Plywood Production and Sales Volume: Plywood Sales volumes and average prices increased 4.3% and 2.1% respectively during the second quarter of 2023. Lower demand continued for Plywood when compared to the same period of the previous year, mainly explained by the effect of higher interest rates in America and Oceania, which affected the construction and remodeling sectors. Geopolitical issues have made a complicated scenario in Europe, impacting demand and costs, causing an oversupply in Latin America and Europe. In the US, demand and prices stabilized.

This was mostly due to a negative free cash flow during the quarter offset by an increase in our financial debt. Additionally, to our cash position, the Company has a committed revolving credit facility for a total amount of US$375 million of which US$225 million were withdrawn in June. This facility is due in February 2025.    Cash by Currency Cash by Instrument

2Q 2023 RESULTS Second Quarter Subsequent Events and News Valdivia Mill Update On August 8th the Valdivia pulp mill started operations again, after the fire that affected the drying machine on May 26th 2022 and forced the plant to stop operations for 3 months in 2022 and almost 4 months in 2023. We received part of the insurance claim as of June 30th, and expect to receive the rest this year.    Since 2020, the Valdivia Mill mainly produces textile pulp (Dissolving Pulp), without prejudice to being able to also produce paper – grade pulp. In addition, the mill produces renewable electricity, injecting significant surpluses into the National Electric System.    MAPA Update Arauco´s Line 3 sales volumes have been increasing within the past months along with positive feedback from our clients. Production has continued increasing as expected with no significant issues, reaching approximately 325 thousand tones as of July 31st 2023 of which, 82.1% or 267 thousand tones were prime pulp. We expect to reach full capacity in the first quarter of 2024 in line with our scheduled ramp-up.    Horcones II, Arauco On July 28, ARAUCO informed the difficult decision to close Horcones II Sawmill, this due to the complex situation surrounding our timber business in Chile. History Horcones II sawmill located in the Arauco region was built in 1999 and began operations in 2000. Its production specialized in thin logs and in supplying raw material to produce pallets. The mill had a capacity of 300.000 cubic meters of Sawn Timber, which represents a 10% of our total sawn timber capacity.
