Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

For purposes of this report, any reference to “PotlatchDeltic,” “Potlatch,” “the company,” “we,” “us” and “our” means PotlatchDeltic Corporation and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries, except where the context indicates otherwise.

We are primarily engaged in activities associated with timberland management, including the sale of timber, the management of approximately 1.9 million acres of timberlands and the purchase and sale of timberlands. We are also engaged in the manufacture and sale of wood products and the development of real estate.

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements provide an overall view of our results and financial condition and reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. Except as otherwise disclosed in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission pertaining to interim financial statements. Certain disclosures normally provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) have been omitted. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2019. Results of operations for interim periods should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

Commitments and Contingencies

At any given time, we are subject to claims and actions incidental to the operations of our business. Based on information currently available, we do not expect that any sums we may receive or have to pay in connection with any legal proceeding would have a materially adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or net cash flow.

NOTE 2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

New Accounting Standards Recently Adopted

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The objective of the new standard is to establish principles for lessees and lessors to report information about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from a lease and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, the lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset to not recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. The standard, along with subsequent amendments, was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach was required, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. An entity may choose to use either (i) its effective date or (ii) the beginning of the earliest comparable period presented in the financial statements as its date of initial application.

We adopted ASU 2016-02, along with subsequent amendments, on January 1, 2019 and used the effective date as our date of initial application. Consequently, financial information will not be updated, and the disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided, for dates and periods before January 1, 2019. The new standard provides several optional practical expedients in transition and for an entity’s ongoing accounting. We elected the following practical expedients as part of our adoption of the standard:

• to not reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases;

• to not reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases;

• to not reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases;

• to apply the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify;

• to not separate non-lease components from lease components; and

• to apply the land easement practical expedient for transition of all existing land easements.

9

Upon adoption of this ASU we recorded $14.0 million for right of use assets and lease liabilities for our operating leases on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The adoption of this ASU did not impact our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income and our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. See Note 14: Leases for our expanded disclosures.

New Accounting Standards Being Evaluated

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15 Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. ASU 2018-15 clarifies that implementation costs incurred by customers in cloud computing arrangements are deferred if they would be capitalized by customers in software licensing arrangements under the internal-use software guidance. Additionally, ASU 2018-15 clarifies that all capitalized costs must be presented in the same financial statement line item as the cloud computing arrangement. The standard will be effective, on either a prospective or retrospective basis, for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We are finalizing our evaluation of the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and based on our assessment to date, we do not expect a material impact upon adoption.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Topic 715-20): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans, which modifies the disclosure requirements for defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement plans. ASU 2018-14 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those years and requires retrospective adoption; early adoption is permitted. ASU 2018-14 will only impact our pension and other postretirement employee benefits disclosures, and we do not believe there will be a material impact on those disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements including (i) requiring disclosures on changes in unrealized gains and losses in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements; and (ii) a requirement to disclose the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those years; early adoption is permitted. ASU 2018-13 will only impact our fair value measurement disclosures, and we do not believe there will be a material impact on those disclosures.

NOTE 3. MERGER WITH DELTIC

On February 20, 2018 Deltic Timber Corporation (Deltic) merged with a wholly owned subsidiary of PotlatchDeltic. Deltic owned approximately 530,000 acres of timberland, operated two sawmills, a medium density fiberboard facility (MDF) and was engaged in real estate development primarily in Arkansas.

The acquisition of total assets of $1.4 billion was a noncash investing and financing activity comprised of $1.1 billion in equity consideration transferred to Deltic shareholders and $0.3 billion of liabilities assumed.

We expensed $1.0 million and $21.2 million of merger-related costs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.  Total merger-related costs consisted of:

• $11.5 million of merger-related costs for professional fees such as investment banker fees, legal, accounting and appraisal services; and

• $9.7 million of restructuring costs primarily for termination benefits, which included accelerated share-based payment costs, for qualifying terminations.

These costs are included in Deltic merger-related costs in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

The amount of revenue and income before income taxes from the acquired Deltic operations included in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income from February 21, 2018 to September 30, 2018 were as follows:

(in thousands, except per share amounts)	Three Months Ended, September 30, 2018		Nine Months Ended, September 30, 2018
Net sales	$	83,385	$	192,244
Income before income taxes	$	17,180	$	25,869

10

The following presents the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information of the company as if the merger with Deltic was completed on January 1, 2017:

(in thousands, except per share amounts)	Three Months Ended, September 30, 2018		Nine Months Ended, September 30, 2018
Net sales	$	289,199	$	795,992
Net earnings attributable to PotlatchDeltic common shareholders	$	61,327	$	142,314
Basic earnings per share attributable to PotlatchDeltic common shareholders	$	0.91	$	2.13
Diluted earnings per share attributable to PotlatchDeltic common shareholders	$	0.91	$	2.12

Pro forma net earnings attributable to PotlatchDeltic common shareholders excludes $1.0 million and $26.7 million of non-recurring merger-related costs incurred by both companies during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, of which $5.4 million were incurred by Deltic prior to the merger. Pro forma data may not be indicative of the results that would have been obtained had these events occurred at the beginning of the periods presented, nor is it intended to be a projection of future results.

NOTE 4. SALE OF DELTIC MDF FACILITY

On December 20, 2018, we entered into an Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement (the Agreement) with Roseburg Forest Products Co. to sell the Deltic MDF facility for $92.0 million, consisting of $63.0 million in cash and assumption of $29.0 million of revenue bonds. The purchase price was subject to post-closing adjustments for certain changes in working capital as defined in the Agreement. The transaction closed on February 12, 2019 resulting in a $9.2 million pre-tax gain on sale. Cash proceeds received after working capital adjustments, closing costs and other expenses were approximately $58.8 million. A portion of the purchase price is escrowed pending satisfaction of certain covenants as outlined in the Agreement. In addition, we had a carryover tax basis in the facility from the Deltic merger, and as a result, we recorded a reduction to deferred tax liabilities and increase to income taxes payable of $15.8 million at the date of sale.

At December 31, 2018, the assets and liabilities to be disposed met the criteria to be classified as held for sale and were reflected as such at their carrying value. At December 31, 2018, assets held for sale on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet of $80.7 million consists of $72.1 million of property, plant and equipment, $7.7 million related to inventories and $0.9 million of customer list intangibles. The related liabilities held for sale of $29.3 million on the December 31, 2018 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet include $29.0 million of revenue bonds. The sale of the MDF facility is not considered a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on our operations or financial results and therefore does not meet the requirements for presentation as discontinued operations.

NOTE 5. REVENUE RECOGNITION

The majority of our revenues are derived from the sale of delivered logs, manufactured wood products, residual wood by-products and real estate. We recognize revenue in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606). Performance obligations associated with real estate sales are generally satisfied at a point in time when all conditions of closing have been met and title transfers to the buyer. Real estate closings are generally facilitated through an escrow process.

At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we recorded $7.2 million and $4.3 million, respectively, for contract liabilities recorded as deferred revenue. These contract related liabilities predominately relate to hunting and other access rights on our timberlands and member related activities at the Chenal Country Club. These contract liabilities are recognized over the term of the contracts, which is typically twelve months or less, except membership initiation fees at the Chenal Country Club which typically are recognized up to 10 years. Other contract asset and liability balances, such as prepayments, are immaterial. For real estate sales, we typically receive the entire consideration in cash at closing.

NOTE 6. SEGMENT INFORMATION

During the second quarter of 2019, we changed the name of our Resource segment to Timberlands.  There were no changes in the segment’s business activities, components or information provided to our chief operating decision makers as a result of the change.  

Our businesses are organized into three reportable operating segments: Timberlands, Wood Products and Real Estate.  Management activities in the Timberlands segment include planting and harvesting trees and building and maintaining roads. The Timberlands segment also generates revenues from non-timber resources such as hunting leases, recreation permits and leases, mineral rights contracts, oil and gas royalties, biomass production and carbon sequestration. The Wood Products segment manufactures and markets lumber and plywood. The business of our Real Estate segment includes the sale of land holdings deemed non-strategic or identified as having higher and better use alternatives. The Real Estate segment also engages in master planned communities, development activities and includes the Chenal Country Club.

The reportable segments follow the same accounting policies used for our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, with the exception of the valuation of inventories. For most of our operations, we use the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method of valuing inventory. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method can be made only at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Interim LIFO calculations are based on management’s best estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs and are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation. Inventories not valued under LIFO are recorded at the lower of average cost or net realizable value. All segment inventories are reported using the average cost method. The LIFO reserve and intersegment eliminations are recorded at the corporate level.

Management primarily evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based upon Adjusted EBITDDA. EBITDDA is calculated as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, basis of real estate sold, depreciation, depletion and amortization. Adjusted EBITDDA further excludes certain specific items that are considered to hinder comparison of the performance of our businesses either year-on-year or with other businesses. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDDA may not be comparable to that reported by other companies.

13

The following table summarizes information on revenues, intersegment eliminations, Adjusted EBITDDA, depreciation, depletion and amortization, basis of real estate sold and total assets for each of the company’s reportable segments and includes a reconciliation of Total Adjusted EBITDDA to income before income taxes. Corporate information is included to reconcile segment data to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 7. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table reconciles the number of shares used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share:

	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands, except per share amounts)	2019		2018		2019		2018
Net income	$	20,565	$	60,336	$	44,262	$	121,081
Basic weighted-average shares outstanding		67,446		62,986		67,781		58,765
Incremental shares due to:
Performance shares		65		270		50		263
Restricted stock units		34		37		17		33
Stock portion of earnings and profits distribution		—		1,429		—		481
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding		67,545		64,722		67,848		59,542
Basic net income per share	$	0.30	$	0.96	$	0.65	$	2.06
Diluted net income per share	$	0.30	$	0.93	$	0.65	$	2.03

For stock-based awards, the dilutive effect is calculated using the treasury stock method. Under this method, the dilutive effect is computed as if the awards were exercised at the beginning of the period (or at time of issuance, if later) and assumes the related proceeds were used to repurchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Related proceeds include future compensation cost associated with the stock award.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, there were approximately 25,000 and 134,000 stock-based awards that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, there were approximately 16,000 and 38,000 stock-based awards that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive. Anti-dilutive stock-based awards could be dilutive in future periods.

Share Issuances Related to the Deltic Merger

In February 2018 we issued 22.0 million shares in connection with the Deltic merger. Further, on August 30, 2018, the board of directors approved a special distribution of $222.0 million, or approximately $3.54 per share. The special distribution amount equaled our determination of the accumulated earnings and profits of Deltic as of the merger date and was distributed in order to maintain the company’s qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The special distribution was paid on November 15, 2018, to stockholders of record on September 27, 2018 through the issuance of 4.8 million shares of our common stock and distribution of $44.4 million in cash. The weighted average shares for the dilutive effect on earnings per share from the stock portion of the special distribution was based on the August 30, 2018 declaration date for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. See Note 3: Merger with Deltic for further discussion on the merger.

15

Share Repurchase Program

On August 30, 2018, our board of directors authorized management to repurchase up to $100.0 million of common stock with no time limit set for the repurchase (the 2018 Repurchase Program). We repurchased  0.7 million shares of common stock (at a total consideration of $25.2 million) during the six months ended June 30, 2019, and we repurchased no shares during the three months ended September 30, 2019 under the 2018 Repurchase Program. All common stock purchases under the 2018 Repurchase Programs were made in open-market transactions. No shares were repurchased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. At September 30, 2019, we had remaining authorization of $74.8 million for future stock repurchases under the 2018 Repurchase Program.

We record share repurchases upon trade date as opposed to the settlement date when cash is disbursed. We record a liability to account for repurchases that have not been cash settled. There were no unsettled repurchases as of September 30, 2019. We retire shares upon repurchase. Any excess repurchase price over par is recorded in accumulated deficit.

NOTE 9. DEBT 

In January 2019, we refinanced $150.0 million of 7.50% senior notes (Senior Notes) due in 2019 with a $150.0 million term loan that will mature in 2029. The new term loan carries a variable interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 1.85%. We paid $0.5 million of lender fees on the new term loan. Concurrent with the new term loan, we entered into a $150.0 million interest rate swap to fix the rate at 4.56%. Upon the refinancing, we redeemed and paid all outstanding Senior Notes, including a redemption premium of $4.9 million which is included in the loss on extinguishment of debt in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Subsequent to the refinancing, $693.5 million was outstanding under our Second Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement.

As part of the Deltic merger, we assumed the obligations relating to the letter of credit supporting Deltic’s $29.0 million Union County, Arkansas Taxable Industrial Revenue Bonds 1998 Series due October 1, 2027 associated with the Deltic MDF facility. As of December 31, 2018, the bonds were classified as held for sale as part of the sale of the Deltic MDF facility and excluded from long-term debt. As part of the sale of the MDF facility, the bonds were assumed by the buyer and the letter of credit was terminated. See Note 4: Sale of Deltic MDF Facility.

As of September 30, 2019, we were in compliance with all debt and credit agreement covenants and approximately $1.0 million of our $380.0 million credit facility was utilized by outstanding letters of credit.

NOTE 10. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

From time to time, we enter into derivative financial instruments to manage certain cash flow and fair value risks. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or liability to a particular risk are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in the cash flows of a specific asset or liability that is attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered cash flow hedges.

We have a $40.0 million term loan that matures in December 2019. In September 2019, we entered into a $40.0 million interest rate swap, the objective which is to lock in the index component rate on an expected new term loan in December 2019. This cash flow hedge requires settlement in December 2019.

Additionally, at September 30, 2019, we have five interest rate swaps associated with $357.5 million of term loan debt.  These cash flow hedges convert variable rates ranging from three-month and one-month LIBOR plus 1.85% to 2.15%, to fixed rates ranging from 3.88% to 4.82%. Our cash flow hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting cash flows attributable to the hedged interest rate risk through the term of the hedge. At September 30, 2019, the amount of net losses expected to be reclassified into earnings in the next 12 months is approximately $3.6 million.

The following table presents the gross fair values of derivative instruments on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets:

		Asset Derivatives					Liability Derivatives

¹ The carrying amount of long-term debt includes principal and unamortized discounts.

The fair value of interest rate swaps are determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. The analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate forward curves.

The fair value of our long-term debt is estimated based upon quoted market prices for similar debt issues or estimated based on average market prices for comparable debt when there is no quoted market price.

The contract value of our company owned life insurance is based on the amount at which it could be redeemed and, accordingly, approximates fair value.

We believe that our other financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, receivables and payables have net carrying values that approximate their fair values with only insignificant differences. This is primarily due to the short-term nature of these instruments and the allowance for doubtful accounts.

NOTE 12. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION

On May 6, 2019 (the Effective Date) the stockholders approved our 2019 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the 2019 Plan). The total amount of PotlatchDeltic common stock authorized for issuance under the 2019 Plan includes, in addition to 1.2 million new shares approved by our stockholders: (i) the total number of shares available for future awards under the Potlatch Corporation 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan and its predecessor plans (the Prior Plans) as of the Effective Date and (ii) the number of undelivered shares subject to outstanding awards under the Prior Plans that will become available for future issuance as provided for under the 2019 Plan.  At September 30, 2019, approximately 1.4 million shares are available for future use under our long-term incentive plans.

Share-based compensation activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 included the following:

(Shares in thousands)	Granted		Vested		Forfeited
Performance Share Awards (PSAs)		142		—		6
Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)		102		19		2

A total of 0.3 million shares of common stock were issued during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

The following table details equity-based compensation expense and the related income tax benefit.

Performance Share Awards

PSAs granted under the stock incentive plans have a three-year performance period and shares are issued at the end of the period if the performance measures are met. The performance measures are based on the percentile ranking of our total shareholder return relative to the total shareholder return performance of both a selected peer group of companies and a larger group of indexed companies over the three-year performance period. The number of shares actually issued, as a percentage of the amount subject to the PSA, could range from 0% to 200%. PSAs granted under our stock incentive plans do not have voting rights unless and until shares are issued upon settlement. If shares are issued at the end of the three-year performance measurement period, the recipients will receive dividend equivalents in the form of additional shares at the time of payment equal to the dividends that would have been paid on the shares earned had the recipients owned the shares during the three-year period. Therefore, the shares are not considered participating securities. The fair value of performance shares granted in 2019 was $37.87 per share.

The following table presents the key inputs used in the Monte Carlo simulation to calculate the fair value of the performance share awards in 2019:

Stock price as of valuation date	$	35.01
Risk-free rate		2.47	%
Expected volatility		25.15	%
Expected dividend yield (assuming full reinvestment)		—
Expected term (years)		3.00

19

Restricted Stock Units

RSU awards accrue dividend equivalents based on dividends paid during the RSU vesting period. The dividend equivalents will be converted into additional RSUs that will vest in the same manner as the underlying RSUs to which they relate. Therefore, the shares are not considered participating securities. The terms of the awards state that the RSUs will vest in a given time period of one to three years and the terms of certain awards follow a vesting schedule within the given time period. The fair value of RSUs granted equaled our common share price on the date of grant factoring in any required post-vesting holding periods. The weighted average fair value of all RSUs granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $36.64.

NOTE 13. INCOME TAXES

As a real estate investment trust (REIT), we generally are not subject to federal and state corporate income taxes on income of the REIT that we distribute to our shareholders. We conduct certain activities through our taxable REIT subsidiaries (TRS), which are subject to corporate level federal and state income taxes. These taxable activities are principally comprised of our wood products manufacturing operations and certain real estate investments. Therefore, income tax expense or benefit is primarily due to income or loss of the TRS, as well as permanent book versus tax differences. In addition, we had carryover tax basis in the MDF facility from the Deltic merger and as a result, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recorded a reduction to deferred tax liabilities and increase to income taxes payable of $15.8 million at the date of sale. See Note 4: Sale of Deltic MDF Facility for further details.  In addition, during the third quarter of 2018, we recorded a tax benefit of $5.3 million primarily related to deducting contributions to our qualified pension plans at the higher 2017 income tax rate.

NOTE 14. LEASES

We lease certain equipment, office space and land. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate, which is derived from information available at the lease commencement date, in determining the present value of lease payments. We consider our recent debt issuances as well as publicly available data for instruments with similar characteristics when calculating our incremental borrowing rates. Most leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term between one to five years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Finance lease assets and liabilities were $1.9 million at September 30, 2019.

For certain equipment leases, we apply a portfolio approach to effectively account for the operating lease ROU assets and liabilities. For certain equipment leases, such as vehicles, we account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Certain leases also include options to purchase the leased equipment. The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise. Certain of our lease agreements include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants and we do not have any significant sublease income.

These forward-looking statements reflect our current views regarding future events based on estimates and assumptions and are therefore subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and are not guarantees of future performance. Our actual results of operations could differ materially from our historical results or those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements contained in this report. Important factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, the following: 

• changes in the United States and international economies;

• changes in interest rates and discount rates;

• changes in the level of residential and commercial construction and remodeling activity;

• changes in tariffs, quotas and trade agreements involving wood products;

• changes in demand for our products and real estate;

• changes in production and production capacity in the forest products industry;

• competitive pricing pressures for our products;

• unanticipated manufacturing disruptions;

• weather;

• changes in principle expenses; and

• transportation disruptions.

For a discussion of some of the factors that may affect our business, results and prospects and a nonexclusive listing of forward-looking statements, refer to Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information on page 1 and Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Forward-looking statements contained in this report present our views only as of the date of this report. Except as required under applicable law, we do not intend to issue updates concerning any future revisions of our views to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this report.

Our Company

We are a leading timberland real estate investment trust (REIT) with operations in seven states where we own approximately 1.9 million acres of timberland, six sawmills, an industrial grade plywood mill and real estate development projects.

Our business is organized into three business segments: Timberlands, Wood Products and Real Estate. Our Timberlands segment supplies our Wood Products segment with a portion of its wood fiber needs. These intersegment revenues are based on prevailing market prices and typically represent a significant portion of the Timberlands segment’s total revenues. Our other segments generally do not generate intersegment revenues. In the discussion of our consolidated results of operations, our revenues and expenses are reported after elimination of intersegment revenues and expenses. In the business segment discussions, each segment’s revenues and expenses, as applicable, are presented before elimination of intersegment revenues and expenses.

23

The operating results of our Timberlands, Wood Products and Real Estate business segments have been and will continue to be influenced by a variety of factors, including the cyclical nature of the forest products industry, tariffs, quotas and trade agreements, changes in timber prices and in harvest levels from our timberlands, competition, timberland valuations, demand for our non-strategic timberland for higher and better use purposes, lumber prices, weather conditions, the availability of transportation, the efficiency and level of capacity utilization of our Wood Products manufacturing operations, changes in our principal expenses such as log costs, asset dispositions or acquisitions and other factors. 

Non-GAAP Measures

To supplement our financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), we use certain non-GAAP measures on a consolidated basis, including Adjusted EBITDDA and Cash Available for Distribution (CAD), which are defined and further explained and reconciled to the nearest GAAP measure in the Liquidity and Performance Measures section below. Our definitions of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. These non-GAAP measures should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDDA is a non-GAAP measure that management uses in evaluating performance, allocate resources between segments, and that investors can use to evaluate the operational performance of the assets under management. It removes the impact of specific items that management believes do not directly reflect the core business operations on an ongoing basis. This measure should not be considered in isolation from and is not intended to represent an alternative to, our results reported in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that this non-GAAP measure, when read in conjunction with our GAAP financial statements, provides useful information to investors by facilitating the comparability of our ongoing operating results over the periods presented, the ability to identify trends in our underlying business and the comparison of our operating results against analyst financial models and operating results of other public companies that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.

Our definition of EBITDDA and Adjusted EBITDDA may be different from similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We define EBITDDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, basis of real estate sold, depreciation, depletion and amortization. Adjusted EBITDDA further excludes certain specific items that are considered to hinder comparison of the performance of our businesses either year-on-year or with other businesses. See Note 6: Segment Information in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information related to the use of segment Adjusted EBITDDA.

Business and Economic Trends

The demand for timber is directly affected by the underlying demand for lumber and other wood-products, as well as by the demand for pulp, paper and packaging. Our Timberlands and Wood Products segments are impacted by demand for new homes in the United States and by repair and remodeling activity.

During the first half of 2019, U.S. single family housing starts remained tepid as a result of land and labor shortages and rising construction costs making it difficult for builders to construct more affordable housing units. Further, extended inclement weather across the country for a good portion of the first half of 2019 impacted building conditions and delayed the normal start of the building season.  Building conditions have since improved as September 2019 was the second month in a row where seasonally adjusted annual rate of single-family starts were above 0.9 million units. Additionally, as property repair and remodel is often done soon after buying, repair and remodeling activity in 2019 has also seen modest growth.

Lumber prices are significantly below first half of 2018 levels but have seen modest increases since December 2018. Many buyers continue to maintain low inventories due to softening demand and readily available supply.  However, we believe the improved seasonally adjusted annual rate of single-family housing starts in August and September 2019, combined with industry production curtailments announced in 2019 will have a positive effect on lumber pricing.

In our Timberlands segment, we index a significant portion of our Idaho sawlogs to the price of lumber under long-term supply agreements. The Northern region experienced a decline in sawlog pricing and volume because of the lower lumber pricing and decreased demand in the first half of 2019. Since then, mills have continued to work through existing higher log cost log inventory.

Southern region log supply has been affected by wet weather in the first half of 2019 restricting log supply and resulting in increased sawlog prices. The onset of drier weather in the third quarter of 2019 resulted in an increase in sawlog supply in the Southern market to take advantage of attractive prices. This has resulted in Southern region mill log inventories shifting to higher levels. Consequently, we scaled back on planned harvest levels in the third quarter of 2019. We expect our harvest volumes to return to normal, higher levels in 2020.

24

Our Real Estate segment benefited from two large rural land sales in the second quarter of 2019 and increased sales in Chenal Valley during the first three quarters of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018. Residential and commercial sales in Chenal Valley mainly follow the national housing market trends but do experience microeconomic factors for the area including economic growth and the availability of builders, contractors and workforce to support development efforts.

Third Quarter 2019 Compared with Third Quarter 2018

Revenues

Revenues were $226.3 million, a decrease of $62.9 million compared with the same period in 2018. Revenues decreased as a result of lower lumber prices and lower sawlog prices in the Northern region indexed to lumber prices. In addition, the third quarter of 2018 included the operations of the Deltic MDF facility which was sold in the first quarter of 2019. These decreases were partially offset by increased lumber shipments, higher harvest volumes and increased rural and development real estate sales.

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold decreased $13.0 million compared with the same period in 2018, primarily due to the inclusion in 2018 of costs related to the Deltic MDF facility. The decrease was partially offset by increased harvest activities and increased lumber shipments.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2019 were $12.5 million compared with $14.9 million during the same period in 2018. The decrease compared to the third quarter of 2018 was primarily due to lower estimated performance-based variable compensation, reductions in workers compensation provisions and lower consultant and professional service fees.

25

Deltic merger-related costs

Merger-related costs for the third quarter 2018 were $1.0 million. This included $0.9 million in merger costs for various professional fees including legal fees, accounting and appraisal fees. Restructuring costs were $0.1 million, consisting primarily of termination benefits and costs associated with systems integration.

Interest expense, net

Net interest expense was $8.5 million, compared with $10.1 million for the same period in 2018. The decline in interest expense resulted primarily from the refinancing $150.0 million of 7.5% Senior Notes with a new long-term loan and the entry into an interest rate swap to fix the rate at 4.56% in January 2019. See Note 9: Debt in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a more detailed discussion of our borrowings.

Income taxes

Income tax expense for the third quarter 2019 was $1.2 million compared with $5.4 million for the prior year period. Income taxes are primarily due to income or loss from our taxable REIT subsidiaries (TRS). For the three months ended September 30, 2019, the TRS’s income before income tax was $4.7 million. For the same period in 2018, the TRS’s income before income tax was $41.5 million.  Also, during the third quarter of 2018, we recorded a tax benefit of $5.3 million primarily related to deducting contributions to our qualified pension plans at the higher 2017 income tax rate.

Total Adjusted EBITDDA

Total Adjusted EBITDDA for the third quarter of 2019 was $55.0 million compared to $101.8 million in the third quarter of 2018. The decrease in Total Adjusted EBITDDA was driven primarily by decreased lumber pricing and lower realizations on Idaho sawlogs indexed to lumber pricing. These decreases were partially offset by lower estimated performance-based variable compensation, lower consultant and professional services fees, increased harvest volumes, increased lumber shipments and increased residential and commercial sales at Chenal Valley in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the third quarter of 2018. Refer to the Business Segments Results below for further discussions on activities for each of our segments.  

See Liquidity and Performance Measures for a reconciliation of Total Adjusted EBITDDA to net income, the closest comparable GAAP measure, for each of the periods presented.

Year to Date 2019 Compared with Year to Date 2018

Revenues

Revenues were $623.6 million, a decrease of $133.7 million compared with the same period in 2018. Revenues decreased as a result of lower lumber prices and lower sawlog prices indexed to lumber prices in the Northern region.  Revenues also declined as full sawmills in the Northern region and inclement weather in the Southern region during the first half of 2019 led to harvest activities shifting to later in 2019. Also, operations in 2019 only included 1.5 months of operations at the Deltic MDF facility compared to 7.5 months in 2018. These declines in revenue were partly offset by higher revenue from increased sawlog and pulpwood prices in the Southern region, increased lumber shipments, two large rural land sales and increased sales in Chenal Valley during the first three quarters of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018.

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold decreased $3.1 million compared with the same period in 2018. This decrease was due to lower logging and hauling costs, lower log costs in the Northern region due to indexed log pricing declines and of operations at the Deltic MDF facility for 1.5 months in 2019 compared to 7.5 months in 2018.  These decreases were partially offset by higher lumber shipments primarily as a result of a full nine months of the acquired Deltic sawmill operations and increased log costs in the Southern region.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first nine months of 2019 were $44.0 million compared with $45.4 million during the same period in 2018.  The decrease was primarily due to lower estimated performance-based variable compensation and lower consultant and professional service fees.

26

Deltic merger-related costs

Merger-related costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were $21.2 million. This included $11.5 million in merger costs for investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting and appraisal fees and other costs related to filing the joint proxy/prospectus for the merger. Also included were restructuring costs of $9.7 million, consisting primarily of termination benefits, which included accelerated share-based payment costs for qualifying terminations.

Gain on sale of facility

On December 20, 2018, we entered into an Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement with Roseburg Forest Products Co. to sell the Deltic MDF facility for $92.0 million. The transaction closed on February 12, 2019 resulting in a $9.2 million pre-tax gain on sale. See Note 4: Sale of Deltic MDF Facility in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Interest expense, net

Net interest expense was $21.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared with $25.1 million for the same period in 2018. The decline in interest expense was primarily due to increased patronage dividends from our lenders and reduced interest costs from the refinancing of our $150.0 million Senior Notes in January 2019 described above. These decreases were partly offset by a full nine months of interest expense in 2019 associated with $230.0 million of long-term debt assumed or refinanced in connection with the Deltic merger in 2018.

Loss on extinguishment of debt

As part of the $150.0 million Senior Notes redemption in January 2019 we incurred a redemption premium of $4.9 million and wrote off certain unamortized debt costs. See Note 9: Debt in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Income taxes

Income tax expense for first nine months of 2019 was $1.9 million compared with $23.1 million for the prior year period. Income taxes are primarily due to income or loss from our taxable REIT subsidiaries (TRS). For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the TRS’s income before income tax was $5.3 million, which includes the gain on sale of the Deltic MDF facility. For the same period last year, the TRS’s income before income tax was $110.6 million. Also, during the third quarter of 2018, we recorded a tax benefit of $5.3 million primarily related to deducting contributions to our qualified pension plans at the higher 2017 income tax rate.

Total Adjusted EBITDDA

Total Adjusted EBITDDA for the first nine months of 2019 was $132.3 million compared to $260.8 million for the same period in 2018. The decrease in Total Adjusted EBITDDA was driven primarily by decreased lumber pricing year over year, lower realizations on Idaho sawlogs indexed to lumber pricing and decreased harvest volumes year on year. These decreases were partially offset by increased lumber shipments, increased sawlog prices in the Southern region, two large rural land sales in Arkansas and increased residential and commercial sales at Chenal Valley. Refer to the Business Segments Results below for further discussions on activities for each of our segments.  

See Liquidity and Performance Measures for a reconciliation of Total Adjusted EBITDDA to net income, the closest comparable GAAP measure, for each of the periods presented.

Third Quarter 2019 Compared with Third Quarter 2018

Timberlands Adjusted EBITDDA for the third quarter of 2019 was $43.0 million, a decrease of $15.7 million compared with the same period in 2018. The change in Timberlands Adjusted EBITDDA was primarily the result of the following:

• Sales Price and Mix: Sawlog prices in the Northern region declined 28.0%, to $100 per ton resulting from the effect of lower lumber price realization on indexed sawlogs in Idaho. Sawlog prices in the Southern region increased 2.1% to $48 per ton due to log shortages  from wet weather earlier in the year that were still impacting pricing in the third quarter of 2019.

• Harvest Volume: We harvested 1.0 million tons in the Southern region, which was up 5.4% compared to the third quarter of 2018 primarily due to lower planned harvest volumes in the third quarter of 2018 as a result of high harvest levels achieved in the first half of 2018. Harvest volume increased in the Northern region as we shifted harvest operations into the second half of 2019 as customers entered the spring break up period with higher than normal inventories.

• Logging and Hauling Cost per Unit: Log and haul costs per unit were higher primarily due to longer haul distances in the Northern region and increased competition for loggers in the Southern region which drove increased costs.

Year to Date 2019 Compared with Year to Date 2018

Timberlands Adjusted EBITDDA for the first nine months of 2019 was $96.0 million, a decrease of $44.1 million compared with the same period in 2018. The change in Timberlands Adjusted EBITDDA was primarily the result of the following:

• Sales Price and Mix: Sawlog prices in the Northern region declined 25.2%, to $95 per ton resulting from the effect of lower lumber price realization on Idaho sawlogs. This was partially offset by sawlog prices in the Southern region increasing 6.8% to $47 per ton primarily due to constrained log supply caused by the wet weather.

• Harvest Volume: We harvested 2.7 million tons in the Southern region, which was down 3.6% compared to the prior year.  This decrease was primarily due to extended wet weather hampering logging operations in the first half of 2019 and full mill log inventories in the third quarter of 2019. As Southern mill log inventories have shifted to high levels we scaled back Southern region planned harvesting in the third quarter of 2019. These decreases were partially offset in the Southern region, which included a full 9 months of acquired Deltic timberlands in 2019, compared to only 7.5 months in 2018. Harvest volume in the Northern region decreased 6.9% year on year due to full log yards in the region earlier in the year resulting in portion of our harvest volumes being deferred into the second half of 2019.

• Other Revenue: Other revenue increased primarily due to the Deltic merger which added more acres generating hunting lease income and natural gas and oil royalties.

• Logging and Hauling Cost per Unit: Increased log and haul rates, especially in the Southern region where there was increased competition for loggers, drove the $0.5 million unfavorable impact to segment Adjusted EBITDDA.

Third Quarter 2019 Compared with Third Quarter 2018

Lumber shipments were 298.8 million board feet in the third quarter of 2019, an increase of 14.2 million board feet compared to the third quarter of 2018.  This increase was primarily a result of increased production and timing of customer shipments.

Wood Products Adjusted EBITDDA for third quarter 2019 was $5.9 million, a decrease of $40.5 million compared with the third quarter of 2018 primarily due to the following:

• Lumber Price: Average lumber sales prices decreased to $363 per MBF compared with $486 per MBF during the third quarter of 2018.

• Log Costs Per Unit: Lower log costs in the Northern region, primarily due to indexed logs in Idaho, favorably impacted log costs per unit compared to the third quarter of 2018.

• Inventory Charge: Ending inventory at September 30, 2019 and 2018 was written down $3.5 million and $0.8 million, respectively to net realizable value as a result of declines in lumber prices.

• Residual Sales, Panels and Other: The decline in residuals, panels and other is primarily because the third quarter of 2018 included 3 months of operations at the Deltic MDF facility which was sold in February 2019.

Year to Date 2019 Compared with Year to Date 2018

Lumber shipments increased 61.8 million board feet to 809.7 million board feet during the first nine months of 2019 compared to 748.0 million board feet during the first nine months of 2018. This increase was primarily due to a full nine months of operations at the Deltic mills in 2019.

Wood Products Adjusted EBITDDA for the first nine months of 2019 was $11.1 million, a decrease of $115.9 million compared with the same period in 2018 primarily due to the following:

• Lumber Price: Average lumber sales prices decreased to $373 per MBF compared with $491 per MBF during the same period in 2018.

• Manufacturing Costs Per Unit: Cold temperatures in the Northern region and wet weather in the Southern region in the first half of 2019 required us to source smaller diameter logs, which resulted in unfavorable log recoveries and production rates. In addition, we completed significant planned capital and maintenance projects which required more downtime than projects during the first nine months of 2018.

• Log Costs Per Unit: Increased log costs in the Southern region more than offset the impact of lower indexed logs in Idaho driving the unfavorable log costs per unit year on year.  

• Inventory Charge: Ending inventory at September 30, 2019 and 2018 was written down $3.5 million and $0.8 million, respectively, to net realizable value as a result of declines in lumber prices. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2019 we wrote down lumber inventory $7.4 million to net realizable value.  The second quarter 2019 inventory write down is reflected in the year to date Adjusted EBITDDA within the manufacturing costs and log costs per unit variances above.  

• Residual Sales, Panels and Other: The decline in residuals, panels and other is primarily due to 2019 including only 1.5 months of the Deltic MDF facility compared to 7.5 months during 2018.

Third Quarter 2019 Compared with Third Quarter 2018

Real Estate Adjusted EBITDDA for the third quarter of 2019 was $14.7 million, an increase of $7.2 million compared with the same period in 2018. The increase in Real Estate Adjusted EBITDDA was primarily the result of the following:

• Rural Real Estate Sales: Rural real estate sales can vary quarter-to-quarter with the average price per acre fluctuating based on both the geographic area of the real estate and product mix. During the third quarter of 2019 we sold approximately 3,000 more acres of rural recreational real estate compared to the third quarter of 2018.  The average price per acre for all rural recreational real estate during the third quarter of 2019 was $1,261 compared to an average price per acre of $1,480 during the third quarter of 2018.

• Development Real Estate Sales: Real estate development sales favorably impacted Real Estate Adjusted EBITDDA during the third quarter of 2019 due to increased residential and commercial sales at Chenal Valley.  During the third quarter of 2019 we sold 42 lots at an average lot price of approximately $110,500 compared to 9 lots at an average lot price of $143,000 during the third quarter of 2018. Further, we sold approximately 6 acres of commercial land in Chenal Valley for approximately $512,500 per acre during the third quarter of 2019. The average price per lot or acre fluctuates based on a variety of factors including location within the developments.

Year to Date 2019 Compared with Year to Date 2018

Real Estate Adjusted EBITDDA for the first nine months of 2019 was $48.7 million, an increase of $20.9 million compared with the same period in 2018. The increase in Real Estate Adjusted EBITDDA was primarily the result of the following:

• Rural Real Estate Sales: Total rural real estate acres sold during the first nine months of 2019 were consistent with the first nine months of 2018.  The first nine months of 2019 benefitted from a second quarter sale of 1,787 acres outside of Little Rock, Arkansas for $11,000 per acre.  

• Development Real Estate Sales: Real estate development sales favorably impacted Real Estate Adjusted EBITDDA during the first nine months of 2019 due to increased residential and commercial sales at Chenal Valley.  In addition to the 6 acres of commercial land sold in the third quarter of 2019 discussed above, we sold 93 lots at an average lot price of approximately $97,500 during the first nine months of 2019 compared to 34 lots at an average lot price of $101,100 during the first nine months of 2018.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2019, our cash and cash equivalents were $94.7 million, an increase of $18.1 million from December 31, 2018. Changes in significant sources of cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 are presented by categories as follows:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,

Net cash provided by operating activities	$	105,427		$	148,368
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities	$	22,187		$	(27,052	)
Net cash used in financing activities	$	(111,265	)	$	(100,530	)

33

Net Cash from Operations

Net cash provided by operating activities was $105.4 million for the first nine months of 2019, a $43.0 million decrease compared to the first nine months of 2018.

Changes in cash provided by operating activities was negatively impacted by:

• Decreased cash receipts from customers of $104.8 million due lower lumber and log prices and lower log sales volume year over year combined with the sale of the Deltic MDF facility in February 2019.

• Increased cash payments to vendors of $15.4 million due to the addition of the Deltic operations for the first nine months of 2019 compared to only 7.5 months during the first nine months of 2018.  Also, operations in 2019 only included 1.5 months of operations at the Deltic MDF facility compared to 7.5 months in 2018.

• Net cash paid for interest of $24.7 million compared to $23.2 million during the first nine months of 2018.  

Changes in cash provided by operating activities was positively impacted by:

• Cash payments of $20.8 million associated with the $21.2 million of merger expense during the first nine months of 2018 that did not reoccur during 2019.

• Cash contributions of $4.6 million to our pension and other postretirement employee benefit plans compared to $56.0 million during the first nine months of 2018.

• Net tax payments of $3.8 million during the first nine months of 2019 compared to $10.3 million net tax payments during the first nine months of 2018.

Net Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities was $22.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared with $27.1 million used in 2018.

• We spent $38.9 million on capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment and timberlands reforestation and roads during the first nine months of 2019 compared to $31.0 million during the first nine months of 2018.

• We received $58.8 million of net cash proceeds from the Deltic MDF facility sale in February 2019. See Note 4: Sale of Deltic MDF Facility in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

• We acquired $3.4 million of cash from the merger with Deltic during the first quarter of 2018.

Net Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $111.3 million and $100.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

• Cash distributions to stockholders were $80.8 million in the first nine months of 2019, compared with $75.3 million during the first nine months of 2018. Our quarterly dividend increased approximately $1.6 million due to the issuance of approximately 4.8 million additional shares in November of 2018 related to the special distribution of Deltic’s accumulated earnings and profits as of the merger date net of the 0.7 million shares repurchased under the 2018 Repurchase Program. See Note 6: Earnings Per Share in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

• In January 2019, we refinanced $150.0 million of Senior Notes due in 2019 with a $150.0 million variable rate term loan that will mature in 2029. Concurrent with the borrowing, we entered into an interest rate swap associated with the new term loan to fix the rate at 4.56%. Upon the refinancing, we redeemed and paid all outstanding Senior Notes, including a redemption premium of $4.9 million.

• During the first nine months of 2018, we repaid $20.3 million of net debt and paid $2.4 million in loan fees.

• During the first nine months of 2019 we repurchased 686,240 shares of our common stock totaling $25.2 million.

Future Cash Requirements

We invest cash in maintenance and discretionary capital expenditures for our facilities in our Wood Product operations. We evaluate discretionary capital improvements based on an expected level of return on investment. We also invest cash in the reforestation of timberlands and construction of roads in our Timberlands operations and to develop land in our Real Estate development operations. In total, we expect we will spend approximately $65 to $70 million in Woods Products, Timberlands and Real Estate segments in 2019.

On August 30, 2018, the board of directors authorized the repurchase up to $100.0 million of common stock with no time limit set for the repurchase. At September 30, 2019, we had remaining authorization of $74.8 million for future stock repurchase under the 2018 repurchase program. Stock repurchases in the future will depend on a variety of factors including our cash position, our desired level of liquidity, debt covenant restrictions and our stock price.

Liquidity and Performance Measures

The discussion below is presented to enhance the reader’s understanding of our operating performance, ability to generate cash and satisfy rating agency and creditor requirements. This information includes two measures: Adjusted EBITDDA and Cash Available for Distribution (CAD). These measures are not defined by GAAP and the discussion of Adjusted EBITDDA and CAD is not intended to conflict with or change any of the GAAP disclosures described herein.

Adjusted EBITDDA is a non-GAAP measure that management uses in evaluating performance, to allocate resources between segments, and that investors can use to evaluate the operational performance of the assets under management. It removes the impact of specific items that management believes do not directly reflect the core business operations on an ongoing basis. This measure should not be considered in isolation from and is not intended to represent an alternative to, our results reported in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that this non-GAAP measure, when read in conjunction with our GAAP financial statements, provides useful information to investors by facilitating the comparability of our ongoing operating results over the periods presented, the ability to identify trends in our underlying business and the comparison of our operating results against analyst financial models and operating results of other public companies that supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.

Our definition of EBITDDA may be different from similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We define EBITDDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, basis of real estate sold, depreciation, depletion and amortization. Adjusted EBITDDA further excludes certain specific items that are considered to hinder comparison of the performance of our businesses either year-on-year or with other businesses.

We reconcile Total Adjusted EBITDDA to net income for the consolidated company as it is the most comparable GAAP measure.

35

The following table provides a reconciliation of net income to Total Adjusted EBITDDA for the respective periods:

	Three Months Ended September 30,					Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands)	2019			2018		2019			2018

Total Adjusted EBITDDA	$	55,012		$	101,810	$	132,344		$	260,750

We define CAD as cash provided by operating activities adjusted for capital spending for purchases of property, plant and equipment, timberlands reforestation and roads and acquisition of timber and timberlands. Management believes CAD is a useful indicator of the company’s overall liquidity, as it provides a measure of cash generated that is available for dividends to common stockholders (an important factor in maintaining our REIT status), repurchase of the company’s common shares, debt repayment, acquisitions and other discretionary and nondiscretionary activities. Our definition of CAD is limited in that it does not solely represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures since the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other contractual obligations. Therefore, we believe it is important to view CAD as a measure that provides supplemental information to our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Our definition of CAD may be different from similarly titled measures reported by other companies, including those in our industry. CAD is not necessarily indicative of the CAD that may be generated in future periods.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities to CAD:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands)	2019			2018
Cash provided by operating activities1	$	105,427		$	148,368
Capital expenditures		(39,143	)		(31,126	)
CAD	$	66,284		$	117,242
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activites2	$	22,187		$	(27,052	)
Net cash used in financing activities	$	(111,265	)	$	(100,530	)

¹ Cash from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 includes cash paid for Deltic merger-related costs of $0.0 million and $20.8 million, respectively, and cash paid for real estate development expenditures of $5.7 million and $3.mi, respectively.

² Net cash from investing activities includes payments for capital expenditures, which is also included in our reconciliation of CAD.

Sources of Financing

Credit and Term Loan Agreements

In January 2019, we refinanced $150.0 million of 7.50% Senior Notes due in 2019 with a $150.0 million term loan that will mature in 2029. The new term loan carries a variable interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 1.85%. Concurrent with the new term loan, we entered into an interest rate swap to fix the rate at 4.56%. Upon the refinancing, we redeemed and paid all outstanding Senior Notes, including a redemption premium of $4.9 million, and paid $0.5 million of lender fees on the new term loan. Subsequent to the refinancing, $693.5 million was outstanding under the Amended Term Loan Agreement.

36

We have a $40.0 million term loan that matures in December 2019.  We expect to refinance this term loan at maturity. In September 2019, we entered into a $40.0 million interest rate swap, the objective of which is to lock in the index component rate on an expected new term loan in December 2019. This cash flow hedge requires settlement in December 2019.

A number of our debt instruments and associated interest rate derivative agreements have an interest rate tied to LIBOR.  In July 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced that it intends to phase out LIBOR by the end of 2021. We are monitoring the developments with respect to the potential phasing out of LIBOR after 2021 and will work with our lenders and counter parties to identify a suitable replacement rate and amend our agreements to reflect this new reference rate accordingly.  We do not believe that the discontinuation of LIBOR as a reference rate in our debt and interest rate derivative agreements will have a material adverse effect on our financial position or materially affect our interest expense.

As of September 30, 2019, we were in compliance with all debt and credit agreement covenants, there were no borrowings under the revolving line of credit and approximately $1.0 million of the $380.0 million credit facility was utilized by outstanding letters of credit.

The following table sets forth the financial covenants in the credit and term loan agreements and our status with respect to these covenants as of September 30, 2019:

	Covenant Requirement		Actual at September 30, 2019
Interest coverage ratio	≥	3.00 to 1.00	5.61
Leverage ratio	≤	40%	20%

Contractual Obligations

Other than the $150.0 million refinance of the 7.50% Senior Notes described in Note 9: Debt in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which are incorporated herein by reference, there have been no material changes to our contractual obligations during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 outside the ordinary course of business.

Credit Ratings

Two major debt rating agencies routinely evaluate our debt and our cost of borrowing can increase or decrease depending on our credit rating. During 2018, both Moody’s and S&P Global upgraded our debt rating to investment grade. There have been no changes in our credit rating during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.  In August 2019 S&P Global revised their outlook on the company to negative from stable. 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We currently are not a party to off-balance sheet arrangements that would require disclosure under this section.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no significant changes during 2019 to our critical accounting policies presented in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Other than the $150.0 million refinance of the Senior Notes described in Note 9: Debt in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which is incorporated herein by reference, our exposures to market risk have not changed materially since December 31, 2018. For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, see Item 7A – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk in our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Quantitative Information about Market Risks

The table below provides information about our outstanding long-term debt, weighted-average interest rates and interest rate swaps as of September 30, 2019. For debt obligations, the table presents principal cash flows and related weighted-average interest rates by expected maturity dates. For interest rate swaps, the table presents notional amounts and weighted-average interest rates by expected (contractual) maturity dates. Notional amounts are used to calculate the contractual payments to be exchanged under the contract. Weighted-average variable rates are based on implied forward rates in the yield curve.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation (pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)), under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2019. These disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that this information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2019.

There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No changes occurred in our internal control over financial reporting during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
