The Company booked the acquisition of the former Masisa S.A. in accordance with regulations contained in Bulletin 72 of the Chilean Institute of Accountants, using the unification of interests method.

It was also agreed to replace the Company’s name "Terranova S.A." by that of "Masisa S.A.".

The extraordinary shareholders’ meeting held on April 13, 2005 resolved to modify the objects of the former Terranova S.A. in order to include the objects of the former Masisa S.A., replacing the third clause of its bylaws with the following:

NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES APPLIED

a) Accounting period

The consolidated financial statements cover the periods from January 1 to March 31, 2006 and 2005.

b) Preparation

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Chile and the instructions of the Superintendency of Securities and Insurance. In the event of differences between the two, the instructions of the Superintendency of Securities and Insurance prevail.

c) Presentation

The consolidated and individual Financial Statements of March 31, 2006, previously reported to the Values and Securities Superintendency in April 28, 2006, have been re emited to reflect an adjustment on the costs of certain inventories costs, as was informed to this Superintendency in a important event dated July 3, 2006.

These financial statements are presented in United States dollars. The figures for the previous year are not therefore restated for comparison purposes.

For comparison purposes, the figures of March 2005 reflect the merger agreed by the shareholders’ meetings in the second quarter of that year with effect from January 1, 2005.

Certain reclassifications have been made in 2005 for a better interpretation of these financial statements.

d) Basis of Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include assets, liabilities, results, and cash flows at the closing of each period related to the Parent Company and its subsidiaries. The effects of transactions and unrealized results among the consolidating companies have been eliminated, and the ownership interest of minority investors is shown as Minority Interest.

e) Price-level Restatement

The indirect subsidiaries that carry their accounting figures in Chilean pesos, have adjusted their financial statements in order to recognize the effects on the variation of the price level restatement of that currency in the respective period. For these effects, the current legal dispositions have been applied, which establish that non currency assets and liabilities must be updated with effects on results. The applied index was the official Consumer Price Index, published by the National Statistics Institute (Instituto Nacional de Estadísticas) on a previous month basis, had a variation of –0.3% in 2006 (-0.8% in 2005).

f) Currency translation

The Company is authorized to keep its accounts in United States dollars. The dollar is used as the common unit of account so the balances of assets and liabilities in different currencies have been expressed in US dollars at the exchange rates at the end of each period. Exchange differences are charged/credited to income.

At March 31, 2006 and 2005, the principal exchange rates against the US dollar were:

10


  2006  2005 
  per US dollar  per US dollar 
 
Chilean peso  526.18  585.93 
Reales  2.1724  2.6662 
Bolivares  2,150.00  2,150.00 
Peso Argentino  3.0820  2.9170

Unidad de Fomento  0.0294  0.0341 
Euro  0.8253  0.7714 

g) Time deposits and Marketable securities

Time deposits are shown at their investment value plus indexation adjustments and accrued interest to the end of the period. Marketable securities relate to investments in mutual funds units shown at their respective redemption values at the period-end.

h) Inventories

- - Products being processed and finished products are shown at their production cost, under the cost-by-absorption method.

- - Standing forests are shown at the forestry appraisal value of the plantations that are expected to be harvested during the following year.

- - Wood pieces, pulp wood and native wood are shown at average production cost or at cost, as the case may be.

- - Materials, spares, supplies, etc at their average cost.

- - Imports in transit at cost

The value of the inventories does not exceed their net estimated realization or replacement value, as the case may be.

It is the Company’s policy to make allowances for the obsolescence of materials and spares and for the reduced value of finished products when they show certain aspects like:

- - Replacement of old machinery or spares for unused machines.

- - Little alternative use of materials or spares with a low stock turnover.

- Possible loss of commercial value of finished products due to deterioration in lengthy storage, as compared to the standards demanded by the market.

i) Estimate of doubtful accounts

The Company’s policy is to make allowances for all accounts in judicial recovery and specific allowances for accounts outstanding.

j) Fixed Assets

Forest Plantations

11


Forest plantations are valued in accordance with the technical appraisal made by forestry engineers. Any incremental value so determined over the book value, that includes the financing cost during the growth period, has been credited to Forest reserve in Shareholders’ equity. The appraisal values have been determined on the basis of a formation cost value for young plantations and the estimated commercial value of standing timber for adult plantations.

Plantations expected to be harvested during the following year, based on a production plan, are shown in Inventories in Current assets.

Fixed assets, excluding plantations

Fixed assets are shown at their cost of acquisition or construction, or at their technical appraisal value, as the case may be, which includes financing costs during the construction period and the principal renovations or improvements. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to income in the period in which they are incurred.

Relatively expensive spares are depreciated over the expected useful lives of the associated principal assets, while those that are consumed periodically are charged to production costs as soon as they are utilized.

Fixed assets that are temporally not in use at the period-end have been shown in Other fixed assets.

Technical appraisal

The technical appraisals were made in the form and periods set out in Circulars 1529, 1571 and 428 of the Superintendency of Securities and Insurance and are current at the date of these financial statements. No other technical appraisals have been booked.

k) Depreciation of fixed assets

Fixed assets, excluding the plantations, are depreciated under the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

l) Intangible assets

The Company’s intangible assets, mainly water rights, are shown at their cost and are being amortized over a period of 40 years, as established in Technical Bulletin 55 of the Chilean Institute of Accountants.

m) Investments in related companies

Investments in related companies are shown at their proportional equity value, determined on the basis of their respective financial statements at the end of each period. Unrealized income has been eliminated.

Foreign investments are adjusted to accounting principles generally accepted in Chile and translated to the company’s functional currency, as required by Technical Bulletin 64 of the Chilean Institute of Accountants.

n) Goodwill and negative goodwill

This represents the difference between the acquisition cost and proportional equity value of the investment at the time of purchase. These differences are amortized over the terms indicated in the Note - Goodwill and negative goodwill.

ñ) Financial transactions under resale agreements

12


Purchases of securities under resale agreements are shown at their present value calculated using the discount rate used for determining the price of each instrument at the time of its acquisition, and are shown in Current assets under Other assets.

o) Bonds payable

These relate to the placement of bearer bonds in Chile, valued at their initial face value plus indexation and interest accrued to the end of each period. The difference between the initial face value and the placement value is shown as a deferred asset which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the obligation.

p) Income tax and deferred taxes

The Company records its tax liabilities in accordance with current tax legislation

The effects of deferred taxes resulting from timing differences between the financial and tax balance sheet are shown taking into account the tax rate current at the estimated time of reversal, as established in Technical Bulletin 60 of the Chilean Institute of Accountants. The effects of deferred taxes at the time of the implementation of that bulletin (January 2000) and not previously recognized, have been deferred and are being amortized against income over the estimated term for the reversal of the item originating the timing difference.

The Forest Reserve is shown net of taxes, in accordance with Technical Bulletin 69 of the Chilean Institute of Accountants.

q) Severance payments

Provisions are made for the severance payments that the Company has to pay in any event under individual or group work contracts, according to the present value of the benefit using the accrued cost method, with an annual discount rate of 6% and a permanence ratio in line with years of service with the Company.

r) Sales

Sales are recorded at the time of the transfer of the goods or provision of services and relate to sales of products made by the Company and third parties. Sales prices are determined by conditions in the destination markets and are shown net of related taxes, price discounts and other things that directly affect their determination.

s) Derivative contracts

The Company has interest rate and currency swap contracts with financial institutions. These were defined as hedging of forecasted transactions and are shown as established in Technical Bulletin 57 of the Chilean Institute of Accountants.

The fair value of these instruments has been shown in Other assets or Other liabilities depending on whether they are receivable from or payable to the respective financial institution.

Unrealized gains corresponding to outstanding contracts of existing items have been shown in Other liabilities and the results realized have been taken to Financial expenses or Exchange differences, depending on the nature of the swap hedge.

In those cases where it is confirmed that the hedge taken was ineffective, the contracts have been treated as investment instruments.

13


t) Computer software

The software currently used by the Company was acquired from SAP Chile S.A. and consists of the SAP R/3 system, version 4.6 C, which is being amortized over 4 years.

u) Research and Development expenses

Research and development expenses are charged to the results of the year in which they are incurred. No significant disbursements have been made by the Company for this purpose, since the creation of the Company.

v) Statement of cash flows

Cash and cash equivalents are considered to be its low-risk, short-term investments made as part of its normal cash management and which can be quickly converted into known amounts of cash, with the intention to make such conversion within 90 days.

Cash flows from operating activities include all such cash flows related to the Company’s business, including interest paid and received, dividends received and in general all those flows that are not otherwise defined as related to investment or financing.

NOTE 08 – DEFERRED TAXES AND INCOME TAXES

a) Income tax

At March 31, 2006 the Company made no provision for income tax as it has total accumulated tax losses of ThUS$290,241 (ThUS$354,423 at March 31, 2005).

b) Deferred taxes

20


As required by Technical Bulletins 60, 68, 69 and 71 of the Chilean Institute of Accountants and Circular 1,466 of the Superintendency of Securities and Insurance, the Company showed deferred taxes arising from timing differences, tax losses and other events that create differences between the accounting and tax treatment of assets and liabilities, shown in the following table.

The table also shows the charges or credits to income for each year for deferred taxes and income tax.

c) As a result of the merger in 2003 and as the companies absorbed (Andinos S.A., Sociedad Forestal Millalemu S.A. and Forestal Terranova S.A.) recorded undistributed taxed earnings in previous years, a right was generated to recover proportionately the tax paid on those earnings, which are absorbed by the Company’s current accumulated tax losses. In addition, the Company in 2005 received dividends from the former Masisa S.A. which permitted an increase in the amount of Recoverable taxes.

On March 31, 2006, the balance of the tax credits mentioned above is THUS$ 14,827.

The result of income tax, generated by each country, is as follows:

Country    2006    2005 
    THUS$    THUS$ 
Chile    (1,611)   (1,149)
Argentina    (1,869)   (1,634)
Brasil (1)   (5,289)   (1,355)
Mexico    ( 501)  
USA    30    (356)
Ecuador    ( 94)   (67)
Perú    ( 258)   (129)
Colombia    ( 234)   (522)
Venezuela      (244)
         
Total    (9,826)   (5,456)

The income tax in the Brazilian companies is strongly influenced by the variation between the Real currency and the US dollar, which generates exchange difference in the local accounting, when reevaluating the liabilities in US dollars (nearly THUS$ 150,000).

This provision is presented net from the assets that originated it.

Plantations:

In the case of plantations, the book value includes forest appraisals conducted by forestry engineers. This value is distributed among plantations under fixed assets and forests in exploitation classified as inventories.

24


The Company and its subsidiaries in its forestry line of business, have recognized as of closing of their business periods a greater value of their forests and plantations, which is included in the forest plantation with payoff in the forest reserve presented under the Net Assets and has been determined though a comparison of the valorization described in Note 2.

(1) Net of Amortization

(2) In May 1997, subsidiary Terranova de Venezuela S.A. pre-paid the lease of a CVG-Proforca sawmill amounting to US$10 millions to enter the forestry business in Venezuela. Since the lease of the above sawmill was critical for negotiating purchase agreements for 59,000 hectares of Caribbean wood plantations and thus enter the forestry business in Venezuela, the Company’s Management classified the pre-paid lease as a forest exploitation right, since it considered it as part of the exploitation rights. The items described will be amortized based on the cubic meters (m3) obtained from the forest product that will be produced by the Terranova de Venezuela S.A.’s forest over a period of 20 years (starting from 1997), estimated in 13,168,000 m3.

Coforven S.A. exploitation rights:

In fiscal year ended December 31, 2000, Terranova de Venezuela S.A. acquired from its subsidiary Coforven S.A., exploitation rights for 236,000 m3/year of wood and a sawmill for THUS$ 3,324. Exploitation rights will be amortized based on the volume of m3 of forest products that will be produced by the forest for supplying the plants. Goodwill balance from the investment in Coforven recorded in the accounting books amounted to THUS$987 as of the sale date, which was included as part of the cost of exploitation rights, since Terranova de Venezuela S.A. is acquiring a significant share of Coforven S.A.’s productive assets. The asset value and exploitation rights were sold at reasonable market values and unrealized results were eliminated.

This reserve is booked net of deferred tax in accordance with Technical Bulletins 60 and 69 of the Chilean Institute of Accountants.

Through Resolution No.203, dated August 29th, 2003, the Internal Revenue Service notified the company that it is not applicable to record in Chile (and for the purpose of establishing its first-category taxable income), the income of some of its foreign agencies.

58


The Company refuted Resolution No. 203 pursuant to the procedure established in articles 123 and following of the Tax Code. Based on the background information that the company has, as well as the opinion of its legal advisors and the administrative law of the “Servicio de Impuestos Internos” (Internal Revenue Service) which has a bearing on the judgment of Resolution No. 203, it seems unlikely that the final judgment of the claim process will have an unfavorable effect on deferred taxes, recoverable taxes and tax losses for US$ 39.2 million recorded by the company.

MANAGEMENT ANALYSIS

MANAGEMENT ANALYSIS OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AT MARCH 31, 2006 (thousands of US$)

A. Comparative analysis of the principal trends noted:

    2006         2005         2005

Liquidity Ratios             
Current Ratio     2.19    2.01    1.11 
Acid Test     0.05    0.09    0.03 

Current assets have increased by approximately 16.1%, mainly in time deposits and trade accounts receivable which are directly related to higher sales in this quarter compared to the same period of the year before, and the share placement completed in January 2006. Current liabilities, on the other hand, increased by 6.4% .

    2006     2005         2005 
    Jan-March    Jan-March         Jan-Dec 
Debt Ratios

C. Book and economic value of the assets and liabilities

The Company’s principal assets are its production plants in Chile and its investments abroad through its subsidiaries Masisa Inversiones Limitada and Inversiones Internacionales Terranova S.A., in Argentina, Brazil, United States, Mexico and Venezuela, which are valued according to generally accepted accounting principles. Studies regularly made by the Company of the economic value of its production plants show that these cover their respective book values.

D. Most relevant changes occurring during the year

The Company carries out its business in various markets, mainly concentrated in Chile, United States and Mexico. Both the Company’s sales and financial results are therefore exposed to each market’s conditions. The following table shows the distribution of consolidated sales, by end market.

         2006         2005    2005 
    Jan-March    Jan-March         Jan-Dec 
USA    27.0%    26.5%    28.0% 
Chile    17.7%    16.5%    16.5% 
Mexico    14.4%    16.7%    15.0% 
Brazil    16.3%    13.2%    14.0% 
Venezuela    8.0%    8.4%    8.3% 
Argentina    6.9%    6.6%    7.6% 
Others    9.7%    12.1%    10.6% 
             
Total    100.0%    100.0%    100.0% 

In recent years, Masisa S.A. has increased the diversification of market risk by expanding its productive and commercial operations to other countries. It now has plants in Chile, Argentina, Brazil, United States, Venezuela and Mexico, plus its own commercial operations in Colombia, Peru and Ecuador, and exports to many countries in the Americas, Asia and Europe. The Company is therefore not exposed to any particular market risk.

The Company also faces potential increased competition or the appearance of new competitors in the boards, wood and forestry products markets. Masisa S.A. believes that it has solid positions in each of the markets in which it participates directly which provide it with profitable and growing businesses. But the Company cannot be sure that these conditions will not change in the future through the entry of new competitors or the intensification of competition in its markets. To mitigate these risks, the Company focuses its efforts on actions for maintaining its leadership in costs, maintaining a strong distribution chain, constantly improving the range of its products and obtaining brand recognition.

The Company is exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations against its functional and accounting currency (US dollar) affecting both its assets and liabilities. Assets and liabilities in non-dollar currencies are mainly due to the Company’s businesses in its domestic markets, domestic sales, investments in assets bought on the local market and local financing. Balances in currencies other than the dollar and/or denominated in a currency other than the functional currency in the periods analyzed, were as follows:

     Summary of assets and liabilities in currency other than the dollar
(expressed in thousands of US dollars)

    2006    2005    2005 
     Jan-March     Jan-March    Jan-Dec 
Assets    210,754    181,983    189,113 
Liabilities    520,454    219,971    407,689 
Net assets (liabilities)   (309,700)   ( 37,988)   (218,576)

Based on the market conditions, the Company’s management sets policies for obtaining loans, investing in deposits and marketable securities under resale agreements and the use of derivative instruments. Depending on the amounts, the board also approves these transactions prior to carrying them out. New long-term debt for financing new investments or refinancing existing debt has to be approved by the Company’s board. In the countries where Masisa S.A. operates, the local management can arrange short-term loans for their working capital needs in the ordinary course of business.

E.- Risk Analysis

Risk Analysis Factors

In the ordinary course of its business, the Company is faced by various risks, market, financial and operational, including:

Financial and exchange rate risks:

The Company’s management sets policies for managing financial risk through the use of derivative instruments like swaps, forwards, options or futures contracts, in order to hedge both exchange and interest rate fluctuation risks.

The Company does not use derivative instruments for speculative purposes.

Operating risk:

Masisa S.A. faces raw material supply risks, especially of chemical and wood resins that are essential elements for making its products. To mitigate this, the Company has long-term agreements with chemical resin suppliers. In addition to the forests and plantations the Company owns directly in Chile, it is also the principal shareholder in Forestal Tornagaleones S.A. which has plantations in Chile and Argentina. It also follows a policy of diversifying its supplies of wood residues in order to reduce its dependence on individual suppliers.

As part of its normal course of business, the Company faces the risk of damage to its plants, the loss of its warehouses, damages to third parties, legal contingencies, commercial and other risks. The Company’s management tries to identify these risks in order to avoid their possible occurrence, reduce their potential adverse effects and/or obtain insurance cover for eventual losses in these circumstances.
