(Jan 30, 2015) - Weyerhaeuser Company (NYSE: WY) today reported fourth quarter net earnings attributable to common shareholders of $166 million, or 31 cents per diluted share, on net sales of $1.8 billion.

Excluding these items, the company reported net earnings of $145 million, or 27 cents per diluted share. This compares with net earnings from continuing operations before special items of $111 million, or 19 cents per diluted share for the same period last year.

For the full year 2014, Weyerhaeuser reported net earnings attributable to common shareholders of $1.8 billion, or $3.18 per diluted share, on net sales from continuing operations of $7.4 billion. This compares with net earnings of $540 million, or 95 cents per diluted share, on net sales from continuing operations of $7.3 billion for the same period last year.

Full year 2014 includes after-tax earnings of $998 million from discontinued operations related to the divestiture of Weyerhaeuser Real Estate Company and $84 million from special items.

"In 2014, we demonstrated our commitment to driving shareholder value,” said Doyle Simons, president and chief executive officer. “During the year, we divested our homebuilding business to become a focused forest products company, achieved our 2014 operational excellence targets and made significant progress on our multi-year initiatives, and improved earnings from continuing operations by more than 20 percent compared with 2013. In addition, we increased our dividend by 32 percent and completed nearly 30 percent of a newly authorized $700 million share repurchase program. For 2015, we remain relentlessly focused on driving operational excellence to fully capitalize on our improving markets and delivering value to our shareholders."

4Q 2014 Performance - Average pulp price realizations increased, and sales volumes fell slightly.

The company anticipates reduced pulp price realizations, higher maintenance expense, and decreased shipment volumes for liquid packaging board due to continuing West Coast port slowdowns, partially offset by higher liquid packaging board realizations due to mix.
