Results for the first six months of the year may not necessarily be indicative of full year results. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Domtar Corporation Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

ACCOUNTING CHANGES IMPLEMENTED

FOREIGN CURRENCY MATTERS

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, an update to Foreign Currency Matters, which indicates that a cumulative translation adjustment is attached to the parent’s investment in a foreign entity and should be released in a manner consistent with the derecognition guidance on investments in entities. Thus, the entire amount of the cumulative translation adjustment associated with the foreign entity would be released when there has been (1) a sale of a subsidiary or group of net assets within a foreign entity and the sale represents the substantially complete liquidation of the investment in the foreign entity; (2) a loss of a controlling financial interest in an investment in a foreign entity; or (3) a step acquisition for a foreign entity. The update does not change the requirement to release a pro rata portion of the cumulative translation adjustment of the foreign entity into earnings for a partial sale of an equity method investment in a foreign entity.

The Company adopted the new requirement on January 1, 2014 with no impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements, as no triggering event occurred throughout the period.

INCOME TAXES

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, which provides guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. ASU 2013-11 requires entities to present an unrecognized tax benefit as a reduction of a deferred tax asset for a NOL or tax credit carryforward whenever the NOL or tax credit carryforward would be available to reduce the additional taxable income or tax due if the tax position is disallowed. This accounting standard update requires entities to assess whether to net the unrecognized tax benefit with a deferred tax asset as of the reporting date.

The Company adopted the new requirement on January 1, 2014 with no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements except for the change in presentation.

FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGES

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, an update on Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. The amendments in this update change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and require additional disclosures for both disposal transactions that meet the criteria for a discontinued operation and disposals that do not meet these criteria. The objective of this update is to reach a greater convergence between the FASB’s and IASB’s reporting requirements for discontinued operations. The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014 and will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements unless a disposal transaction occurs after the effective date.

REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-9, an update on revenue from contracts with customers. The core principal of this guideline is that an entity should recognize revenue, to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the entity is entitled to, in exchange for those goods and services. Guidance in this section supersedes the revenue recognition requirements found in topic 605.

The amendment will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating these changes to determine whether they have an impact on the presentation of the consolidated financial statements. The Company does not expect these changes to have a material impact.

NOTE 2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED)

STOCK COMPENSATION

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, an update on stock compensation. The guideline requires performance targets, which affect vesting and can be achieved after the requisite service period, to be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. If achievement of the performance target becomes probable before the end of the requisite service period, the remaining unrecognized compensation cost should be recognized prospectively over the remaining requisite service period.

The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating these changes to determine whether they have an impact on the presentation of the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Earnings (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The Company does not expect these changes to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

ACQUISITION OF BUSINESSES

Acquisition of Laboratorios Indas

On January 2, 2014, Domtar Corporation completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding shares of Laboratorios Indas, S.A.U. (“Indas”) a branded incontinence products manufacturer and marketer in Spain. Indas has approximately 440 employees and operates two manufacturing facilities in Spain. The results of Indas’ operations have been included in the Personal Care reportable segment as of January 2, 2014. The purchase price was $546 million (€399 million) in cash, net of cash acquired of $46 million (€34 million). The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting, in accordance with the Business Combinations Topic of FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

The total purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the Company’s estimates of their fair value, which are based on information currently available. The fair value of all elements, including expected useful lives of tangible and intangibles assets are preliminary and remain to be finalized. The Company will complete the valuation of all assets and liabilities within the next six months.

The table below illustrates the preliminary purchase price allocation:

Fair value of net assets acquired at the date of acquisition
Receivables		101
Inventory		28
Income and other taxes receivable		3
Property, plant and equipment		72
Intangible assets
Customer relationships	142

Fair value of net assets acquired at the date of acquisition		546

Goodwill represents the future economic benefit arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. The goodwill is attributable to the general reputation of the business, the assembled workforce, the expected synergies and the expected future cash flows of the business. Disclosed goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

On June 1, 2013, Domtar Corporation completed the acquisition of Xerox’s paper and print media product’s assets in the United States and Canada. The transaction includes a broad range of coated and uncoated papers and specialty print media including business forms, carbonless as well as wide-format paper formerly distributed by Xerox. The results of this business are presented in the Pulp and Paper reportable segment. The purchase price was $7 million in cash plus inventory on a dollar for dollar basis. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting, in accordance with the Business Combinations Topic of FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

The total purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired based on the Company’s estimates of their fair value, which was based on information currently available. During the third quarter of 2013, the Company completed the evaluation of all assets and liabilities.

DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

INTEREST RATE RISK

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk arising from fluctuations in interest rates on its cash and cash equivalents, bank indebtedness, bank credit facility and long-term debt. The Company may manage this interest rate exposure through the use of derivative instruments such as interest rate swap contracts.

CREDIT RISK

The Company is exposed to credit risk on the accounts receivable from its customers. In order to reduce this risk, the Company reviews new customers’ credit history before granting credit and conducts regular reviews of existing customers’ credit performance. As of June 30, 2014, one of Domtar’s Pulp and Paper segment customers located in the United States represented 10% ($69 million) (2013 – 12% ($73 million)) of the Company’s receivables.

The Company is also exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by counterparties to its financial instruments. The Company minimizes this exposure by entering into contracts with counterparties that are believed to be of high credit quality. Collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk is usually not obtained. The credit standing of counterparties is regularly monitored. Additionally, the Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by its insurers. The Company minimizes this exposure by doing business only with large reputable insurance companies.

COST RISK

Cash flow hedges:

The Company purchases natural gas at the prevailing market price at the time of delivery. In order to manage the cash flow risk associated with purchases of natural gas, the Company may utilize derivative financial instruments or physical purchases to fix the price of forecasted natural gas purchases. The Company formally documents the hedge relationships, including identification of the hedging instruments and the hedged items, the risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transactions, and the methodologies used to assess effectiveness and measure ineffectiveness. Current contracts are used to hedge a portion of forecasted purchases over the next 42 months. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges is recorded net of taxes in Other comprehensive income (loss), and is recognized in Cost of sales in the period in which the hedged transaction occurs.

NOTE 4. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (CONTINUED)

The following table presents the volumes under derivative financial instruments for natural gas contracts outstanding as of June 30, 2014 to hedge forecasted purchases:

Commodity	Notional contractual quantity under derivative contracts				Notional contractual  value under derivative contracts (in millions of dollars)		Percentage of forecasted purchases under derivative contracts for
							2014(2)			2015			2016			2017
Natural gas		20,400,000	MMBTU	(1)	$	85		53	%		45	%		32	%		10	%

(1) MMBTU: Millions of British thermal units

(2) Represents the remaining six months of 2014

The natural gas derivative contracts were fully effective for accounting purposes as of June 30, 2014. The critical terms of the hedging instruments and the hedged items match. As a result, there were no amounts reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 resulting from hedge ineffectiveness (three and six months ended June 30, 2013 – nil).

FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK

Cash flow hedges:

The Company has manufacturing operations in the United States, Canada, Sweden, Spain and China. As a result, it is exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates in Canada, Europe and Asia. Moreover, certain assets and liabilities are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar and are exposed to foreign currency movements. As a result, the Company’s earnings are affected by increases or decreases in the value of the Canadian dollar and of European and Asian currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. The Company’s Swedish and Spanish subsidiaries are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates on transactions denominated in a currency other than its Euro functional currency. The Company’s risk management policy allows it to hedge a significant portion of its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for periods up to three years. The Company may use derivative instruments (currency options and foreign exchange forward contracts) to mitigate its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates or to designate them as hedging instruments in order to hedge the subsidiary’s cash flow risk for purposes of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company formally documents the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transactions. Foreign exchange derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges are used to hedge forecasted purchases in Canadian dollars by the Canadian subsidiary over the next 24 months. Foreign exchange derivative option contracts designated as cash flow hedges are used to hedge forecasted sales in British Pound Sterling and forecasted purchases in U.S. dollars by the Swedish and Spanish subsidiaries over the next 12 months. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges is recorded net of taxes in Other comprehensive income (loss) and is recognized in Cost of sales or in Sales in the period in which the hedged transaction occurs.

NOTE 4. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (CONTINUED)

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

The accounting standards for fair value measurements and disclosures, establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement.

Level 1	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2	Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3	Inputs that are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The following tables present information about the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (except Long-term debt, see (c) below) at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, in accordance with the accounting standards for fair value measurements and disclosures and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value.

(a) Fair value of the Company’s derivatives is classified under Level 2 (inputs that are observable; directly or indirectly) as it is measured as follows:

– For currency derivatives: Fair value is measured using techniques derived from the Black-Scholes pricing model. Interest rates, forward market rates and volatility are used as inputs for such valuation techniques.

– For natural gas contracts: Fair value is measured using the discounted difference between contractual rates and quoted market future rates.

(b) Asset Backed Notes (“ABN”) are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 or Level 3 inputs. Fair value of ABN reported under Level 2 is based on current market quotes. Fair value of ABN reported under Level 3 is based on the value of the collateral investments held in the conduit issuer, reduced by the negative value of credit default derivatives, with an additional discount applied for illiquidity.

(c) Fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is measured by comparison to market prices of its debt. In accordance with US GAAP, the Company’s long-term debt is not carried at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. However, fair value disclosure is required. The carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt is $1,417 million and $1,514 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Due to their short-term maturity, the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, bank indebtedness, trade and other payables and income and other taxes approximate their fair values.

PENSION PLANS AND OTHER POST-RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS

DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLANS

The Company has several defined contribution plans and multi-employer plans. The pension expense under these plans is equal to the Company’s contribution. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the related pension expense was $7 million and $15 million, respectively (2013 - $8 million and $16 million, respectively).

DEFINED BENEFIT PLANS AND OTHER POST-RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS

The Company sponsors both contributory and non-contributory U.S. and non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans. Non-unionized employees in Canada joining the Company after June 1, 2000 participate in a defined contribution pension plan. Salaried employees in the U.S. joining the Company after January 1, 2008 participate in a defined contribution pension plan. Most unionized employees in the U.S. and all U.S. non-hourly employees that are not grandfathered under the existing defined benefit pension plans, participate in a defined contribution pension plan for future service. The Company also sponsors a number of other post-retirement benefit plans for eligible U.S. and non-U.S. employees; the plans are unfunded and include life insurance programs and medical and dental benefits. The Company also provides supplemental unfunded defined benefit pension plans and supplemental unfunded defined contribution pension plans to certain senior management employees.

INCOME TAXES

For the second quarter of 2014, the Company’s income tax expense amounted to $13 million, consisting of a current tax expense of $19 million and a deferred tax benefit of $6 million. This compares to an income tax benefit of $5 million in the second quarter of 2013, consisting of a current income tax benefit of $4 million and a deferred income tax benefit of $1 million. The Company made income tax payments, net of refunds, of $20 million during the second quarter of 2014 and the effective tax rate was 25% compared to an effective tax rate of 10% in the second quarter of 2013. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2013 was impacted by the George Weston Limited litigation settlement payment made during the quarter of $49 million (CDN $50 million). Approximately $38 million (CDN $39 million) of this payment was non-deductible for income tax purposes.

For the first half of 2014, the Company’s income tax expense amounted to $28 million, consisting of a current tax expense of $34 million and a deferred tax benefit of $6 million. This compares to an income tax benefit of $27 million in the first half of 2013, consisting of a current income tax benefit of $27 million and a deferred income tax benefit of nil. The Company made income tax payments, net of refunds, of $19 million during the first half of 2014 and the effective tax rate was 26% compared to an effective tax rate of 100% in the first half of 2013. The effective tax rate for the first half of 2013 was impacted by the conversion of $26 million of Alternative Fuel Tax Credits (“AFTC”) from the 2009 tax year into $55 million of Cellulosic Biofuel Producer Credits (“CBPC”) ($33 million benefit after-tax) as well as a reduction of unrecognized tax benefits of $8 million previously associated with AFTC from 2009 that were converted into CBPC in the first half of 2013. These tax benefits were partially offset by the $49 million (CDN $50 million) litigation settlement payment due to $38 million (CDN $39 million) being non-deductible for income tax purposes.

As of June 30, 2014, the Company has gross unrecognized tax benefits and interest of $198 million and related deferred tax assets of $20 million associated with the AFTC claimed on the 2009 tax return. The recognition of these benefits, $178 million net of deferred taxes, would impact the effective tax rate. During the second quarter of 2012, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) began an audit of the Company’s 2009 U.S. income tax return and in the third quarter of 2013 expanded the audit period to include the tax returns for the 2010 and 2011 tax years. The completion of the audit by the IRS or the issuance of authoritative guidance could result in the release of the provision or settlement of the liability in cash of some or all of these previously unrecognized tax benefits. The Company reasonably expects the audit to be settled within the next twelve months which could result in a significant change to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits. However, audit outcomes and the timing of audit settlements are subject to significant uncertainty.

CLOSURE AND RESTRUCTURING COSTS AND LIABILITY AND IMPAIRMENT AND WRITE-DOWN OF PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

The Company regularly reviews its overall production capacity with the objective of aligning its production capacity with anticipated long-term demand, which in some cases could result in closure or impairment costs being recorded in earnings.

In relation to the withdrawal from one of the Company’s multiemployer pension plans in 2011, the Company recorded an additional charge to earnings of $1 million due to a revision in estimated withdrawal liability during the first quarter of 2013. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company decided to withdraw from another of its multiemployer pension plans and recorded a withdrawal liability and a charge to earnings of $3 million. At June 30, 2014, the current accrual balance is $62 million. While this is the Company’s best estimate of the ultimate cost of the withdrawal from these plans at June 30, 2014, additional withdrawal liabilities may be incurred based on the final fund assessment expected to occur in the third quarter of 2014. Further, the Company remains liable for potential additional withdrawal liabilities to the fund in the event of a mass withdrawal, as defined by statute, occurring anytime within the next two years.

During the second quarter of 2013, the Company also incurred pension settlement losses in the amount of $13 million related to the previously closed Big River sawmill and Dryden paper mill for $6 million and $7 million, respectively.

Ariva U.S.

On July 31, 2013, the Company completed the sale of its Ariva U.S. which had approximately 400 employees in the United States. As a result of this agreement, during the second quarter of 2013, the Company recorded a $5 million impairment of property, plant and equipment at its Ariva U.S. location, in Impairment and write-down of property, plant and equipment on the Consolidated Statement of Earnings (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Kamloops, British Columbia pulp facility

On December 13, 2012, the Company announced the permanent shut down of one pulp machine at its Kamloops, British Columbia mill. This decision resulted in a permanent curtailment of Domtar’s annual pulp production by approximately 120,000 air dried metric tons of sawdust softwood pulp and affected approximately 125 employees.

As a result, the Company recognized, under Impairment and write-down of property plant and equipment, $10 million of accelerated depreciation in the first quarter of 2013. The pulp machine ceased production in March 2013. Further, during the first quarter of 2013 the Company reversed $1 million of severance and termination costs. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company reversed an additional $1 million of severance and termination costs, reversed $1 million of inventory obsolescence, and incurred $2 million of other costs.

Other Costs

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company also incurred other costs related to previous and ongoing closures which includes nil and $1 million of severance and termination costs, respectively (2013 – $2 million and $2 million, respectively).

SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

On February 18, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.275 per share to be paid to holders of the Company’s common stock, as well as holders of exchangeable shares of Domtar (Canada) Paper Inc. Total dividends of approximately $18 million were paid on April 15, 2014 to shareholders of record on March 14, 2014.

On April 30, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 2-for-1 split of its common stock to be effected through a stock dividend. Shareholders of record on June 10, 2014 received one additional share for every share they owned on that date. As a result of the stock split, total shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding increased from approximately 32.5 million to 65 million.

In addition, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase in the quarterly dividend on its common stock on a post-split basis, from $0.275 to $0.375 per share. This is equivalent to, on a pre-split basis, an increase of $0.20 per share (36%) per quarter. Total dividends of approximately $24 million were paid on July 15, 2014 to shareholders of record on July 2, 2014.

On July 30, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.375 per share to be paid to holders of the Company’s common stock. This dividend is to be paid on October 15, 2014, to shareholders of record on October 2, 2014.

STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM

In 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program (“the Program”) of up to $1 billion of Domtar Corporation’s common stock. Under the Program, the Company is authorized to repurchase from time to time shares of its outstanding common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in the United States. The timing and amount of stock repurchases will depend on a variety of factors, including the market conditions as well as corporate and regulatory considerations. The Program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time and the Company has no obligation to repurchase any amount of its common stock under the Program. The Program has no set expiration date. The Company repurchases its common stock, from time to time, in part to reduce the dilutive effects of stock options, awards, and to improve shareholders’ returns.

The Company makes open market purchases of its common stock using general corporate funds. Additionally, the Company enteres into structured stock repurchase agreements with large financial institutions using general corporate funds in order to lower the average cost to acquire shares. The agreements requires the Company to make up-front payments to the counterparty financial institutions which results in either the receipt of stock at the beginning of the term of the agreements followed by a share adjustment at the maturity of the agreements, or the receipt of either stock or cash at the maturity of the agreements, depending upon the price of the stock.

During the first half of 2014, the Company did not repurchase any shares under the Program.

During the first half of 2013, the Company repurchased 3,952,952 shares at an average price of $37.13 for a total cost of $147 million.

Since the inception of the Program, the Company repurchased 22,341,012 shares at an average price of $39.24 for a total cost of $877 million. All shares repurchased are recorded as Treasury stock on the Consolidated Balance Sheets under the par value method at $0.01 per share.

Domtar Canada Paper Inc. Exchangeable Shares

Upon the consummation of a series of transactions whereby the Fine Paper Business of Weyerhaeuser Company was transferred to the Company and it acquired Domtar Inc. on March 7, 2007 (the “Transaction”), Domtar Inc. shareholders had the option to receive either common stock of the Company or shares of Domtar (Canada) Paper Inc. that were exchangeable for common stock of the Company. The exchangeable shares of Domtar (Canada) Paper Inc. were intended to be substantially the economic equivalent to shares of the Company’s common stock. These shareholders could exchange the exchangeable shares for shares of Domtar Corporation common stock on a one-for-one basis at any time.

On June 2, 2014 (the “Redemption Date”) Domtar (Canada) Paper Inc., a subsidiary of Domtar Corporation, redeemed all of its outstanding exchangeable shares from the holders thereof. On the Redemption Date, holders of exchangeable shares received, in exchange for each exchangeable share, one share of common stock of Domtar Corporation (plus cash in the amount of all declared and unpaid dividends, if any, provided that the record date for the payment of such dividends was prior to the Redemption Date).

As a result of the redemption of exchangeable shares, the Company reclassified $32 million from Exchangeable shares to Additional paid-in capital.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

ENVIRONMENT

The Company is subject to environmental laws and regulations enacted by federal, provincial, state and local authorities.

An action was commenced by Seaspan International Ltd. (“Seaspan”) in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, on March 31, 1999 against the Company and others with respect to alleged contamination of Seaspan’s site bordering Burrard Inlet in North Vancouver, British Columbia, including contamination of sediments in Burrard Inlet, due to the presence of creosote and heavy metals. Beyond the filing of preliminary pleadings, no steps have been taken by the parties in this action. On February 16, 2010, the government of British Columbia issued a Remediation Order to Seaspan and the Company (“responsible persons”) in order to define and implement an action plan to address soil, sediment and groundwater issues. This Order was appealed to the Environmental Appeal Board (“Board”) on March 17, 2010 but there is no suspension in the execution of this Order unless the Board orders otherwise. The relevant government authorities selected a remediation approach on July 15, 2011, and on January 8, 2013, the same authorities decided that each responsible persons’ implementation plan is satisfactory and that the responsible persons should decide which plan is to be used. Most of the remaining appeals that were to be heard before the Board were abandoned by the parties during the course of the Board proceedings which were held in the fall of 2013. Seaspan and Domtar have selected a remedial plan and have applied to the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority for permitting approval. The Company has recorded an environmental reserve to address its estimated exposure. The possible loss in excess of the reserve is not considered to be material for this matter.

The following table reflects changes in the reserve for environmental remediation and asset retirement obligations:

The Company is also a party to various proceedings relating to the cleanup of hazardous waste sites under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act, commonly known as “Superfund,” and similar state laws. The EPA and/or various state agencies have notified the Company that it may be a potentially responsible party with respect to other hazardous waste sites as to which no proceedings have been instituted against the Company. The Company continues to take remedial action under its Care and Control Program at its former wood preserving sites, and at a number of operating sites due to possible soil, sediment or groundwater contamination. The investigation and remediation process is lengthy and subject to the uncertainties of changes in legal requirements, technological developments and, if and when applicable, the allocation of liability among potentially responsible parties.

Climate change regulation

In response to the Kyoto Protocol, which calls for reductions of certain emissions that may contribute to increases in atmospheric greenhouse gas (“GHG”) concentrations, various international, national and local laws have been proposed or implemented focusing on reducing GHG emissions. These actual or proposed laws do or may apply in the jurisdictions where the Company currently has, or may have in the future, manufacturing facilities or investments.

In the United States, Congress has considered legislation to reduce emissions of GHGs. Although the legislation has not passed, it appears that the federal government will continue to consider methods to reduce GHG emissions from public utilities and certain other emitters. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) has adopted and implemented GHG permitting requirements for certain new sources and modifications of existing industrial facilities and has proposed GHG performance standards for newly constructed, reconstructed and modified electric utilities under the existing Clean Air Act. The EPA has also relied on the existing Clean Air Act to propose a “Clean Power Plan” that would establish emission guidelines for existing electric utilities and require states to develop plans for reducing GHG emissions by making significant changes to the energy resources utilized within the state. The EPA is also developing a biogenic carbon accounting framework to account for carbon dioxide emissions from biomass fuels for Clean Air Act permitting purposes. The EPA also references this framework in the proposals addressing GHG performance standards for the electric utilities. Furthermore, several states are already regulating GHG emissions from public utilities and certain other significant emitters, primarily through regional GHG cap-and-trade programs or renewable energy requirements.

The U.S. Supreme Court held on June 23, 2014 that the EPA had exceeded its statutory authority in establishing its GHG permitting program. Specifically, the Court determined that the EPA could not impose GHG permitting requirements on a source unless that source had already triggered permitting requirements for other non-GHG pollutants. However, for sources already subject to permitting, the Court held that the Clean Air Act did not preclude the EPA from requiring those sources to install “best available control technology” for GHGs.

Passage of GHG legislation by Congress or individual states, or the adoption of regulations by the EPA or analogous state agencies, that restrict emissions of GHGs in areas in which the Company conducts business could have a variety of impacts upon the Company, including requiring it to implement GHG reduction programs or to pay taxes or other fees with respect to its GHG emissions. This, in turn, will increase the Company’s operating costs and capital spending. The Company does not expect to be disproportionately affected by these measures compared with other pulp and paper producers in the United States.

The Government of Canada has committed to reducing greenhouse gases by 17 percent from 2005 levels by 2020. A sector by sector approach is being used to set performance standards to reduce greenhouse gases. On September 5, 2012 final regulations were published for the coal-fired electrical generators which are scheduled to become effective July 1, 2015. Performance standards for industrial sectors will also be developed. The pulp and paper sector is currently undergoing review. The Company does not expect the performance standards to be disproportionately affected by these future measures compared with other pulp and paper producers in Canada.

NOTE 15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)

The province of Quebec initiated a GHG cap-and-trade system on January 1, 2012. Reduction targets for Quebec have been promulgated and were effective January 1, 2013. The Company does not expect the cost of compliance will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. British Columbia imposed a carbon tax in 2008, which applies to the purchase of fossil fuels within the province. There are currently no other federal or provincial statutory or regulatory obligations that affect the emission of GHGs for the Company’s pulp and paper operations elsewhere in Canada. The Province of Ontario is reviewing a potential regulatory program for GHG emission reductions that may include a cap-and-trade component.

While it is likely that there will be increased regulation relating to GHG emissions in the future, at this time it is not possible to estimate either a timetable for the promulgation or implementation of any new regulations or the Company’s cost of compliance to said regulations. The impact could, however, be material.

Industrial Boiler Maximum Achievable Control Technology Standard (“MACT”)

On December 2, 2011, the EPA proposed a new set of standards related to emissions from boilers and process heaters included in some of the Company’s manufacturing processes. These standards are generally referred to as Boiler MACT and seek to require reductions in the emission of certain hazardous air pollutants or surrogates of hazardous air pollutants. The EPA announced the final rule on December 20, 2012 and it was subsequently published in the Federal Register on January 31, 2013 for major sources. The Company is developing plans to bring facilities affected by the Boiler MACT rule into compliance by the January 2016 regulatory deadline for major sources. The Company expects that the capital cost required to comply with the Boiler MACT rules is between $20 million and $30 million. The Company is currently assessing the associated increase in operating costs as well as alternate compliance strategies.

The EPA has agreed to reconsider a limited number of issues in the most recent Boiler MACT rule, and elements of the EPA’s rule have been legally challenged. Since the consequences of these activities cannot be predicted, adjustments to compliance plans may be needed to accommodate any changes to the final rule.

CONTINGENCIES

In the normal course of operations, the Company becomes involved in various legal actions mostly related to contract disputes, patent infringements, environmental and product warranty claims, and labor issues. While the final outcome with respect to actions outstanding or pending at June 30, 2014, cannot be predicted with certainty, it is management’s opinion that their resolution will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

INDEMNIFICATIONS

In the normal course of business, the Company offers indemnifications relating to the sale of its businesses and real estate. In general, these indemnifications may relate to claims from past business operations, the failure to abide by covenants and the breach of representations and warranties included in the sales agreements. Typically, such representations and warranties relate to taxation, environmental, product and employee matters. The terms of these indemnification agreements are generally for an unlimited period of time. At June 30, 2014, the Company is unable to estimate the potential maximum liabilities for these types of indemnification guarantees as the amounts are contingent upon the outcome of future events, the nature and likelihood of which cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Accordingly, no provision has been recorded. These indemnifications have not yielded a significant expense in the past.

Pension Plans

The Company has indemnified and held harmless the trustees of its pension funds, and the respective officers, directors, employees and agents of such trustees, from any and all costs and expenses arising out of the performance of their obligations under the relevant trust agreements, including in respect of their reliance on authorized instructions from the Company or for failing to act in the absence of authorized instructions. These indemnifications survive the termination of such agreements. At June 30, 2014 the Company has not recorded a liability associated with these indemnifications, as it does not expect to make any payments pertaining to these indemnifications.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with Domtar Corporation’s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Quarterly Report. The MD&A should also be read in conjunction with the historical financial information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 24, 2014. Throughout this MD&A, unless otherwise specified, “Domtar Corporation,” “the Company,” “Domtar,” “we,” “us” and “our” refers to Domtar Corporation and its subsidiaries, as well as its investments. Domtar Corporation’s common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange and the Toronto Stock Exchange. Except where otherwise indicated, all financial information reflected herein is determined on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).

In accordance with industry practice, in this report, the term “ton” or the symbol “ST” refers to a short ton, an imperial unit of measurement equal to 0.9072 metric tons. The term “metric ton” or the symbol “ADMT” refers to an air dry metric ton. In this report, unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars, and the term “dollars” and the symbol “$” refer to U.S. dollars. In the following discussion, unless otherwise noted, references to increases or decreases in income and expense items, prices, contribution to net earnings (loss), and shipment volume are based on the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. The three-month and six-month periods are also referred to as the first and second quarters of 2014 and 2013 (or Q1 2014, Q1 2013, Q2 2014 and Q2 2013), and the first half of 2014 and 2013, respectively. Reference to notes refers to footnotes to the consolidated financial statements found in Item 1 of this form 10-Q.

The MD&A is organized in the following sections:

• Overview

• Summary of Q2 2014 and first half of 2014 results

• Consolidated Results of Operations and Segment Review

• Outlook

• Liquidity and Capital Resources

• Accounting Changes Implemented and Critical Accounting Policies

OVERVIEW

We operate in two reportable segments as described below. Each reportable segment offers different products and services and requires different manufacturing processes, technology and/or marketing strategies.

The following summary briefly describes the operations included in each of our reportable segments.

Pulp and Paper: Our Pulp and Paper segment consists of the design, manufacturing, marketing and distribution of communication and specialty and packaging papers, as well as softwood, fluff and hardwood market pulp.

Personal Care: Our Personal Care segment consists of the manufacturing, marketing and distribution of adult incontinence products, absorbent hygiene products and infant diapers.

We continue to focus on sustaining profitable growth through high performance in our Pulp and Paper business as well as continued growth in our Personal Care division through organic growth and acquisitions.

Commentary:

(a) Sale of Ariva U.S. business on July 31, 2013.

(b) Acquisition of AHP on July 1, 2013 and Indas on January 2, 2014.

Commentary – Second quarter of 2014 compared to second quarter of 2013

Consolidated Sales

Sales for the second quarter of 2014 amounted to $1,385 million, an increase of $73 million, or approximately 6%, from sales in the second quarter of 2013. Net prices were up mostly due to an increase in our net average selling price for pulp by approximately 8% and paper by approximately 3%. Sales were also impacted by the inclusion of sales from our newly acquired Indas and AHP businesses. These increases to sales were partially offset by the impact of the disposition of our Ariva U.S. business in the third quarter of 2013 ($65 million).

50

Commentary – First half of 2014 compared to first half of 2013

Consolidated Sales

Sales for the first half of 2014 amounted to $2,779 million, an increase of $122 million, or approximately 5%, from sales in the first half of 2013. Net prices were up mostly due to an increase in our net average selling price for pulp by approximately 10% and paper by approximately 2%. Sales were also impacted by the inclusion of sales from our acquired Indas and AHP businesses. These increases to sales were partially offset by the impact of the disposition of our Ariva U.S. business in the third quarter of 2013 ($130 million), a decrease in our pulp sales volume mostly as a result of the permanent shut down of a pulp line at our Kamloops mill in March 2013 and extreme cold weather in Q1 2014 and a decrease in demand for our paper.

Operating Income – Refer to segment analysis

Interest Expense, net

We incurred $26 million of net interest expense in the second quarter of 2014, an increase of $5 million compared to net interest expense of $21 million in the second quarter of 2013. Higher interest expense in the second quarter of 2014 was due to the issuance of $250 million 6.75% Notes due 2044 in November 2013 to partially fund the Indas acquisition.

Income Taxes

For the second quarter of 2014, our income tax expense amounted to $13 million, consisting of a current tax expense of $19 million and a deferred tax benefit of $6 million. This compares to an income tax benefit of $5 million in the second quarter of 2013, consisting of a current income tax benefit of $4 million and a deferred income tax benefit of $1 million. We made income tax payments, net of refunds, of $20 million during the second quarter of 2014 and our effective tax rate was 25% compared to an effective tax rate of 10% in the second quarter of 2013. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2013 was impacted by the George Weston Limited litigation settlement payment made during the quarter of $49 million (CDN $50 million). Approximately $38 million (CDN $39 million) of this payment was non-deductible for income tax purposes.

Operating Income – Refer to segment analysis

Interest Expense, net

We incurred $51 million of net interest expense in the first half of 2014, an increase of $5 million when compared to net interest expense of $46 million in the first half of 2013. Higher interest expense in the first half of 2014 was due to the issuance of $250 million 6.75% Notes due 2044 in November 2013 to partially fund the Indas acquisition. This was partially offset by lower interest expense due to the redemption of our outstanding 5.375% Notes due 2013, for par value of $71 million including the premium paid on this debt redemption in the first quarter of 2013 of $3 million.

Income Taxes

For the first half of 2014, our income tax expense amounted to $28 million, consisting of a current tax expense of $34 million and a deferred tax benefit of $6 million. This compares to an income tax benefit of $27 million in the first half of 2013, consisting of a current income tax benefit of $27 million and a deferred income tax benefit of nil. We made income tax payments, net of refunds, of $19 million during the first half of 2014 and our effective tax rate was 26% compared to an effective tax rate of 100% in the first half of 2013. The effective tax rate for the first half of 2013 was impacted by the conversion of $26 million of AFTC from the 2009 tax year into $55 million of CBPC ($33 million benefit after-tax) as well as a reduction of unrecognized tax benefits of $8 million previously associated with AFTC from 2009 that were converted into CBPC in the first half of 2013. These tax benefits were partially offset by the $49 million (CDN $50 million) litigation settlement payment due to $38 million (CDN $39 million) being non-deductible for income tax purposes.

52

Alternative Fuel Tax Credit and Cellulosic Biofuel Producer Credit

As of June 30, 2014, we have gross unrecognized tax benefits and interest of $198 million and related deferred tax assets of $20 million associated with the AFTC claimed on our 2009 tax return. The recognition of these benefits, $178 million net of deferred taxes, would impact the effective tax rate. During the second quarter of 2012, the IRS began an audit of our 2009 U.S. income tax return and in the third quarter of 2013 expanded the audit period to include the tax returns for the 2010 and 2011 tax years. The completion of the audit by the IRS or the issuance of authoritative guidance could result in the release of the provision or settlement of the liability in cash of some or all of these previously unrecognized tax benefits. We reasonably expect the audit to be settled within the next twelve months which could result in a significant change to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits. However, audit outcomes and the timing of audit settlements are subject to significant uncertainty.

OUTLOOK

Our paper volumes are expected to decline with market demand while global softwood pulp markets are expected to remain balanced. Domtar will continue to closely monitor its inventory levels and balance its production with its customers’ demand. The ramp-up of the new production lines are expected to positively impact the Personal Care business results towards the end of the year. Input costs are expected to stay relatively stable for the second half of 2014.

53

PULP AND PAPER

Operating Income

Operating income in our Pulp and Paper segment amounted to $69 million in the second quarter of 2014, an increase of $53 million, when compared to operating income of $16 million in the second quarter of 2013. Overall, our operating results improved when compared to the second quarter of 2013, primarily due to:

• Higher average selling prices for pulp and paper as described above

• Positive impact of a weaker Canadian dollar on our Canadian denominated expenses, net of our hedging program

• Lower maintenance costs ($6 million) as a result of timing of expenses

• Lower chemical costs ($7 million)

• Lower depreciation charges ($8 million) due to certain assets reaching the end of their useful lives

• Restructuring charges related to the pension plan at our Dryden mill ($7 million) and pension withdrawals at Indianapolis ($3 million) in Q2 2013

• Impairment charges to property, plant and equipment related to our sold Ariva U.S. business in Q2 2013 ($5 million)

• Mark-to-market adjustments on some stock-based compensation positively impacted our results

This increase was partially offset by:

• Higher costs of fiber ($14 million)

• Higher costs of energy ($4 million)

• Lower volume of paper

Operating income in our Pulp and Paper segment amounted to $138 million in the first half of 2014, an increase of $84 million, when compared to operating income of $54 million in the first half of 2013. Overall, our operating results improved when compared to the first half of 2013, primarily due to:

• Higher average selling prices for pulp and paper as described above

• Positive impact of a weaker Canadian dollar on our Canadian denominated expenses, net of our hedging program

• The conversion of AFTC ($26 million) into CBPC in the first quarter of 2013 which negatively impacted operating income in the first quarter of 2013 (refer to Note 8 “Income Taxes”)

• Lower maintenance costs ($14 million) as a result of timing of expenses

• Lower cost of chemicals ($14 million) mainly due to the stabilization of starch prices in 2014

• Lower depreciation charges ($14 million) due to certain assets reaching their useful lives

• Impairment of property, plant and equipment ($10 million) relating to our Kamloops mill in the first quarter of 2013

• Restructuring charges related to the pension plan at our Dryden mill ($7 million) and pension withdrawals at Indianapolis ($3 million) in Q2 2013

• Impairment charges to property, plant and equipment related to our sold Ariva U.S. business in Q2 2013 ($5 million)

This increase was partially offset by:

• Higher costs of fiber ($31 million, mostly as a result of extreme cold weather driving up prices)

• Higher costs of energy ($21 million, due primarily to increased pricing)

• Lower volume of pulp and paper

• Negative impact of lower pulp and paper production volume

• Higher freight costs ($7 million), due in part to increased pricing as a result of rail and truck transportation issues in Canada

• Mark-to-market adjustments on some stock-based compensation negatively impacted our results

• The gain on sale of Port Edwards assets in the first quarter of 2013 ($10 million)

54

PERSONAL CARE

Operating Income

Operating income increased by 40% or $4 million compared to the second quarter of 2013, primarily due to:

• Impact of the acquisition of Indas

• Positive impact of foreign currency denominated expenses, net of our hedging program

• Closure and restructuring costs of $2 million in Q2 2013 related to the streamlining of our U.S. and European operations (refer to Note 12 “Closure and restructuring costs and liability and impairment and write-down of property, plant and equipment”)

These increases were partially offset by the following:

• Higher wages and variable compensation

• Increased depreciation charges mainly due to capital expansion

• Unfavorable pricing in nonwovens, pulp and other input materials

• Increased materials usage

• Increased manufacturing costs mostly due to preparation of launching new production lines

Operating income increased by 26% or $6 million compared to the first half of 2013, primarily due to:

• Impact of the acquisition of Indas

• Positive impact of foreign currency denominated expenses, net of our hedging program

• Closure and restructuring costs of $2 million in Q2 2013 related to the streamlining of our U.S. and European operations compared to closure and restructuring costs of $1 million in Q1 2014 (refer to Note 12 “Closure and restructuring costs and liability and impairment and write-down of property, plant and equipment”)

These increases were partially offset by the following:

• Higher wages and variable compensation

• Increased depreciation charges mainly due to capital expansion

• Unfavorable pricing in nonwovens, pulp and other input materials

• Increased materials usage

• Increased manufacturing costs mostly due to preparation of launching new production lines

• Negative impact of the sale of finished goods inventory that had been marked to fair value at the time of the acquisition of Indas ($3 million)

55

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION EXPENSE

For the second quarter of 2014, a recovery of $4 million was recognized in our results of operations for stock-based compensation for all outstanding awards as a result of the mark-to-market impact related to the liability awards while in the first half of 2014, compensation expense of $4 million was incurred. This compares to nil and nil in the second quarter of 2013 and the first half of 2013. Compensation costs for performance awards are based on management’s best estimate of the final performance measurement.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our principal cash requirements are for ongoing operating costs, pension contributions, working capital and capital expenditures, as well as principal and interest payments on our debt. We expect to fund our liquidity needs primarily with internally generated funds from our operations and, to the extent necessary, through borrowings under our contractually committed credit facility, of which $580 million is currently undrawn and available, or through our receivables securitization facility, of which $57 million is currently undrawn and available. Under adverse market conditions, there can be no assurance that these agreements would be available or sufficient. See “Capital Resources” below.

Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness, including debt we could incur under the credit and receivable securitization facilities and outstanding Domtar Corporation notes, and for ongoing operating costs including pension contributions, working capital and capital expenditures will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future, which is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. Our credit and receivable securitization facilities and debt indentures, as well as terms of any future indebtedness, impose, or may impose, various restrictions and covenants on us that could limit our ability to respond to market conditions, to provide for unanticipated capital investments or to take advantage of business opportunities.

Operating Activities

Cash flows provided from operating activities totaled $245 million in the first half of 2014, a $62 million increase compared to cash flows provided from operating activities of $183 million in the first half of 2013. This increase in cash flows provided from operating activities is primarily due to increased profitability in the first half of 2014 when compared to the first half of 2013 ($80 million). We experienced a decrease in working capital requirements in the first half of 2014, in part due to cash received of $34 million due to the impact of the Spanish government supplier payment plan on past due receivables. In the first half of 2013, our cash flows were negatively impacted by a litigation settlement with George Weston Limited for $49 million (CDN $50 million) and the conversion of AFTC into CBPC ($26 million) in the first half of 2013.

Our operating cash flow requirements are primarily for salaries and benefits, the purchase of fiber, energy and raw materials and other expenses such as property taxes.

Investing Activities

Cash flows used for investing activities in the first half of 2014 amounted to $646 million, a $526 million increase compared to cash flows used for investing activities of $120 million in the first half of 2013.

The use of cash in the first half of 2014 was attributable to the acquisition of Indas of $546 million (€399 million) and additions to property, plant and equipment of $101 million, offset by proceeds from disposals of property, plant and equipment of $1million.

The use of cash in the first half of 2013 was attributable to additions to property, plant and equipment of $118 million and the acquisition of Xerox’s paper and print media products assets of $11 million. In addition, we invested $1 million in our joint venture in the first half of 2013. The use of cash was partially offset by the proceeds from the disposal of Port Edwards assets of $9 million.

Our annual capital expenditures are expected to be approximately between $290 million and $310 million or between 75% and 80% of our expected depreciation expense for 2014.

56

Financing Activities

Cash flows used for financing activities totaled $169 million in the first half of 2014 compared to cash flows used for financing activities of $291 million in the first half of 2013.

The use of cash in the first half of 2014 was primarily the result of a net repayment of our revolving bank credit facility and other borrowings ($134 million) and dividend payments ($36 million). In addition, we repaid $3 million of capital leases relating to land and buildings in the first half of 2014.

The use of cash in the first half of 2013 was mainly due to the repurchase of shares of our common stock for a total cost of $147 million and the redemption of 5.375% Notes due 2013 in the first quarter of 2013 for $71 million, including premiums paid of $2 million and additional charges of $1 million. In addition, we made dividend payments of $31 million and repaid $26 million of capital leases relating to land and buildings in the first half of 2013.

Capital Resources

Net indebtedness, consisting of bank indebtedness and long-term debt, net of cash and cash equivalents, was $1,347 million as of June 30, 2014 compared to $874 million as of December 31, 2013. The increase in net indebtedness is primarily due to a reduction of cash and cash equivalents as a result of the acquisition of Indas ($546 million).

Bank Facility

On June 15, 2012, we entered into a $600 million amended and restated Credit Agreement, among us, certain subsidiary borrowers, certain subsidiary guarantors and the lenders, that matures on June 15, 2017. This amended credit facility was scheduled to mature June 23, 2015. The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility (including a letter of credit sub-facility and a swingline sub-facility), which may be borrowed in U.S. Dollars, Canadian Dollars (in an amount up to the Canadian Dollar equivalent of $150 million) and Euros (in an amount up to the Euro equivalent of $200 million). Borrowings may be made by us, by our U.S. subsidiary Domtar Paper Company, LLC, by our Canadian subsidiary Domtar Inc. and by any additional borrower designated by us in accordance with the Credit Agreement. We may increase the maximum aggregate amount of availability under the revolving Credit Agreement by up to $400 million, and the Borrowers may extend the final maturity of the Credit Agreement by one year, subject to the agreement of lenders participating in such increase or extension, as applicable.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bears interest at a rate dependent on our credit ratings at the time of such borrowing and are calculated at the Borrowers’ option according to a base rate, prime rate, LIBO rate, EURIBO rate or the Canadian bankers’ acceptance rate plus an applicable margin, as the case may be. In addition, we pay facility fees quarterly at rates dependent on our credit ratings.

The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants, including two financial covenants: (i) an interest coverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement, that must be maintained at a level of not less than 3 to 1 and (ii) a leverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement that must be maintained at a level of not greater than 3.75 to 1. At June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with our covenants, and borrowing under the Credit Agreement amounted to $20 million (June 30, 2013 – nil). At June 30, 2014, we had no outstanding letters of credit under this credit facility (June 30, 2013 – $11 million). We had $580 million available under our contractually committed credit facility at June 30, 2014.

Receivables Securitization

We have a $150 million receivables securitization facility that matures in March 2016, with a current utilization limit for borrowings or letters of credit of $144 million at June 30, 2014.

At June 30, 2014, we had $40 million of borrowings and $47 million of letters of credit under the program (June 30, 2013 – nil and $37 million, respectively). The program contains certain termination events, which include, but are not limited to, matters related to receivable performance, certain defaults occurring under the credit facility or the failure by Domtar to repay or satisfy material obligations. At June 30, 2014, we had $57 million available under the accounts receivable securitization facility. In addition, one of our subsidiaries has a securitization facility under which, at June 30, 2014, borrowings amounted to $4 million.

Domtar Canada Paper Inc. Exchangeable Shares

Upon the consummation of a series of transactions whereby the Fine Paper Business of Weyerhaeuser Company was transferred to us and we acquired Domtar Inc. on March 7, 2007, Domtar Inc. shareholders had the option to receive either common stock of the Company or shares of Domtar (Canada) Paper Inc., a subsidiary of Domtar Corporation, that were exchangeable for common stock of the Company. The exchangeable shares of Domtar (Canada) Paper Inc. were intended to be substantially the economic equivalent to shares of the Company’s common stock and the shareholders were able to exchange the exchangeable shares for shares of Domtar Corporation common stock on a one-for-one basis at any time.

57

On June 2, 2014 (the “Redemption Date”) Domtar (Canada) Paper Inc., a subsidiary of Domtar Corporation, redeemed all of its outstanding exchangeable shares from the holders thereof. On the Redemption Date, holders of exchangeable shares received, in exchange for each exchangeable share, one share of common stock of Domtar Corporation (plus cash in the amount of all declared and unpaid dividends, if any, provided that the record date for the payment of such dividends was prior to the Redemption Date).

As a result of the redemption of exchangeable shares, the Company reclassified $32 million from Exchangeable shares to Additional paid-in capital.

Common Stock

On April 30, 2014, our Board of Directors approved a 2-for-1 split of our common stock to be effected through a stock dividend. Shareholders of record on June 10, 2014 were entitled to receive one additional share for every share they owned on that date. As a result of the stock split, total shares of our common stock outstanding increased from approximately 32.5 million to 65 million.

In addition, our Board of Directors approved an increase in the quarterly dividend on our common stock on a post-split basis, from $0.275 to $0.375 per share. This is equivalent to, on a pre-split basis, an increase of $0.20 per share per quarter (or 36%). Total dividends of approximately $24 million were paid on July 15, 2014 to shareholders of record on July 2, 2014.

On July 30, 2014, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.375 per share to be paid to holders of our common stock. This dividend is to be paid on October 15, 2014, to shareholders of record on October 2, 2014.

58

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

In the normal course of business, we finance certain of our activities off balance sheet through operating leases.

GUARANTEES

Indemnifications

In the normal course of business, we offer indemnifications relating to the sale of our businesses and real estate. In general, these indemnifications may relate to claims from past business operations, the failure to abide by covenants and the breach of representations and warranties included in sales agreements. Typically, such representations and warranties relate to taxation, environmental, product and employee matters. The terms of these indemnification agreements are generally for an unlimited period of time. At June 30, 2014, we were unable to estimate the potential maximum liabilities for these types of indemnification guarantees as the amounts are contingent upon the outcome of future events, the nature and likelihood of which cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Accordingly, no provision has been recorded. These indemnifications have not yielded significant expenses in the past.

Pension Plans

We have indemnified and held harmless the trustees of our pension funds, and the respective officers, directors, employees and agents of such trustees, from any and all costs and expenses arising out of the performance of their obligations under the relevant trust agreements, including in respect of their reliance on authorized instructions from us or for failing to act in the absence of authorized instructions. These indemnifications survive the termination of such agreements. At June 30, 2014, we have not recorded a liability associated with these indemnifications, as we do not expect to make any payments pertaining to these indemnifications.

ACCOUNTING CHANGES IMPLEMENTED

Foreign Currency Matters

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, an update to Foreign Currency Matters, which indicates that a cumulative translation adjustment is attached to the parent’s investment in a foreign entity and should be released in a manner consistent with the derecognition guidance on investments in entities. Thus, the entire amount of the cumulative translation adjustment associated with the foreign entity would be released when there has been (1) a sale of a subsidiary or group of net assets within a foreign entity and the sale represents the substantially complete liquidation of the investment in the foreign entity; (2) a loss of a controlling financial interest in an investment in a foreign entity; or (3) a step acquisition for a foreign entity. The update does not change the requirement to release a pro-rata portion of the cumulative translation adjustment of the foreign entity into earnings for a partial sale of an equity method investment in a foreign entity.

We adopted the new requirement on January 1, 2014 with no impact on our consolidated financial statements, as no triggering event occurred throughout the period.

Income Taxes

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, which provides guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. ASU 2013-11 requires entities to present an unrecognized tax benefit as a reduction of a deferred tax asset for a NOL or tax credit carryforward whenever the NOL or tax credit carryforward would be available to reduce the additional taxable income or tax due if the tax position is disallowed. This accounting standard update requires entities to assess whether to net the unrecognized tax benefit with a deferred tax asset as of the reporting date.

We adopted the new requirement on January 1, 2014 with no material impact on our consolidated financial statements except for the change in presentation.

FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGES

Discontinued Operations

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, an update on Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. The amendments in this update change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and require additional disclosures for both disposal transactions that meet the criteria for a discontinued operation and disposals that do not meet these criteria. The objective of this update is to reach a greater convergence between the FASB’s and IASB’s reporting requirements for discontinued operations. The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014 and will not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements unless a disposal transaction occurs after the effective date.

59

Revenue From Contracts With Customers

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-9, an update on revenue from contracts with customers. The core principal in this guideline is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the entity is entitled to, in exchange for those goods and services. Guidance in this section supersedes the revenue recognition requirements found in topic 605.

The amendment will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating these changes to determine whether they have an impact on the presentation of our consolidated financial statements. We do not expect these changes to have a material impact.

Stock Compensation

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, an update on stock compensation. The guideline requires performance targets, which affect vesting and that can be achieved after the requisite service period, to be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. If the performance target becomes probable of being achieved before the end of the requisite service period, the remaining unrecognized compensation cost should be recognized prospectively over the remaining requisite service period.

The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating these changes to determine whether they have an impact on the presentation of the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Earnings (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). We do not expect these changes to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

60

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect our results of operations and financial position. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates, including those related to environmental matters and other asset retirement obligations, useful lives, impairment of property, plant and equipment, impairment of intangibles, impairment of goodwill, impairment of indefinite-lived intangible assets, pension plans and other post-retirement benefit plans, income taxes and closure and restructuring costs based on currently available information. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Critical accounting policies reflect matters that contain a significant level of management estimates about future events, reflect the most complex and subjective judgments, and are subject to a fair degree of measurement uncertainty. There has not been any material change to our policies since December 31, 2013. For more details on critical accounting policies, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking statements relating to trends in, or representing management’s beliefs about, Domtar Corporation’s future growth, results of operations, performance and business prospects and opportunities. These forward-looking statements are generally denoted by the use of words such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “expect”, “intend”, “aim”, “target”, “plan”, “continue”, “estimate”, “project”, “may”, “will”, “should” and similar expressions. These statements reflect management’s current beliefs and are based on information currently available to management. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by management, are inherently subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or those anticipated. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that any of the events anticipated by the forward-looking statements will occur, or if any occurs, what effect they will have on Domtar Corporation’s results of operations or financial condition. These factors include, but are not limited to:

• continued decline in usage of fine paper products in our core North American market;

• our ability to implement our business diversification initiatives, including strategic acquisitions;

• product selling prices;

• raw material prices, including wood fiber, chemical and energy;

• conditions in the global capital and credit markets, and the economy generally, particularly in the U.S., Canada and Europe;

• performance of the Domtar Corporation’s manufacturing operations, including unexpected maintenance requirements;

• the level of competition from domestic and foreign producers;

• the effect of, or change in, forestry, land use, environmental and other governmental regulations (including taxation), and accounting regulations;

• the effect of weather and the risk of loss from fires, floods, windstorms, hurricanes and other natural disasters;

• transportation costs;

• the loss of current customers or the inability to obtain new customers;

• legal proceedings;

• changes in asset valuations, including write-downs of property, plant and equipment, inventory, accounts receivable or other assets for impairment or other reasons;

• changes in currency exchange rates, particularly the relative value of the U.S. dollar to the Canadian dollar and European currencies;

• the effect of timing of retirements and changes in the market price of the Domtar Corporation’s common stock on charges for stock-based compensation;

• performance of pension fund investments and related derivatives, if any; and

• the other factors described under “Risk Factors”, in item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2013.

You are cautioned not to unduly rely on such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, when evaluating the information presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Unless specifically required by law, Domtar Corporation assumes no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements to reflect new events or circumstances.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Information relating to quantitative and qualitative disclosure about market risk is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. There has not been any material change in our exposure to market risk since December 31, 2013. A full discussion on Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk, is found in Note 4 “Derivatives and Hedging Activities and Fair Value Measurement,” to the financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of June 30, 2014, an evaluation was performed by members of management, at the direction and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report.

Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, contains important risk factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statement. There were no material changes to the risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

There was no stock repurchase activity under our stock repurchase program (the “Program”) during the three-month period ended June 30, 2014. The Program was approved by the Board of Directors in May 2010 and amended in May 2011 and December 2011. We currently have $121 million of remaining availability under our Program. The Program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time and we have no obligation to repurchase any amount of our common stock under the Program. The Program has no set expiration date. We repurchase our common stock, from time to time, in part to reduce the dilutive effects of stock options, awards, and the employee stock purchase plan and to improve shareholders’ returns. The timing and amount of stock repurchases will depend on a variety of factors, including the market conditions as well as corporate and regulatory considerations. All shares repurchased are recorded as Treasury stock on the Consolidated Balance Sheets under the par value method at $0.01 per share.

• Product development and innovation

• Customer and market development and relationship management

• Commercial and sales operations

• Operational oversight for all manufacturing locations

4. Annual Incentive Bonus. While you are employed you will be eligible to participate in the Domtar Corporation Annual Incentive Plan or any successor plan.

Actual bonus payments will be determined based on performance results (personal and corporate) versus the applicable performance criteria established by the Board of Directors of the Company, and are contingent upon your continued employment through the bonus payment date. Any annual bonus with respect to a particular year will be payable promptly following the receipt of Domtar’s audited financial statements for such year and in any event within two and a half months of the end of such year.

5. Long-Term Incentive Awards. You will be eligible to participate in the Domtar Corporation Omnibus Incentive Plan in 2014 at a level equivalent to 140% of your base salary.

6. Additional Award. To compensate for long term incentive payments and other compensation from your current employer which you will forfeit by reason of accepting employment with the Company and to induce you to accept employment under the terms and conditions of this offer letter, you will receive a one-time Restricted Share Unit (“RSU”) award under the Domtar Corporate Omnibus Incentive Plan with an aggregate Grant Date fair value of US$840,000.

7. Employee Benefits. While employed by Domtar, you will be eligible to participate in the employee benefit plans and programs generally available to employees in your position, subject to the terms and conditions of such plans and programs.

19. Definitions.

(a) “Affiliate” means any entity with whom the Company would be considered a single employer under Sections 414(b) or 414(c) of the Code except that, in making such determination, “at least fifty (50) percent” will be substituted for “at least eighty (80) percent” each place it appears therein.

(b) “Code” means the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

(c) “Confidential Information” means any information about the Company or any Affiliate and their employees, customers and/or suppliers which is not generally known outside of the Company or any Affiliate, which you learn of in connection with your employment with the Company or any Affiliate, and which would be useful to competitors or the disclosure of which would be damaging to the Company or the Affiliate. Confidential Information may include, but is not necessarily limited to: (A) business and employment policies, marketing methods and the targets of those methods, finances, business plans, promotional materials and price lists; (B) the Company’s or any Affiliate’s manufacturing techniques; (C) the terms upon which the Company or any Affiliate obtains products from their suppliers and sells services and products to customers; (D) the nature, origin, composition and development of the Company’s or the Affiliate’s services and products; (E) the manner in which the Company or any Affiliate provides products and services to their customers, and (F) Trade Secrets, as defined below. Confidential Information does not include information that (A) has been voluntarily disclosed to the public by the Company or any Affiliate, except where such public disclosure has been made by you without authorization from the Company or the Affiliate; (B) has been independently developed and disclosed by others; or (C) which has otherwise entered the public domain through lawful means.

(d) “Trade Secrets” means the trade secrets of the Company or any Affiliate as defined under applicable law.

20. Severability. The parties further agree that each paragraph of this Agreement and each covenant, promise, and provision within each paragraph is severable from the remainder of the Agreement. Accordingly, the parties agree that if in any judicial proceeding a court shall determine that any paragraph or any covenant, promise, or provision contained in any paragraph, or part thereof, is unenforceable, it shall be deemed to be severed, and the remainder of the Agreement shall be enforced according to its terms and to the fullest extent permitted by law.

7

21. Remedies and Enforcement. You acknowledge and agree that a breach of the provisions of Sections 12 through 15 of this Agreement by you will cause serious and irreparable damage to the Company that will be difficult to quantify and for which monetary damages alone will not be adequate. Accordingly, you agree that if the Company should bring an action to enforce its rights under Sections 12 through 15 of this Agreement and if the Company establishes that you breached any of your obligations under this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to temporary and/or permanent injunctive relief without the need for posting a bond as well as reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees incurred by the Company in bringing and prosecuting any action for breach. Further, you waive the defense in any judicial proceeding that there is an adequate remedy at law for any such breach.

We are pleased by the prospect of your joining Domtar and look forward to the opportunity to work with you. Please sign below to signify your acceptance of our offer of employment and its terms. Should you have any questions with regard to any of the items indicated above, please let me know.

Sincerely,

(s) John D. Williams

The cumulative gain recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) relating to natural gas contracts of $3 million at June 30, 2014, will be recognized in Cost of sales upon maturity of the derivatives over the next 42 months at the then prevailing values, which may be different from those at June 30, 2014.

The cumulative gain recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) relating to currency options hedging forcasted purchases of $6 million at June 30, 2014, will be recognized in Cost of sales upon maturity of the derivatives over the next 21 months at the then prevailing values, which may be different from those at June 30, 2014.

(a) Fair value of the Company’s derivatives is classified under Level 2 (inputs that are observable; directly or indirectly) as it is measured as follows:

– For currency derivatives: Fair value is measured using techniques derived from the Black-Scholes pricing model. Interest rates, forward market rates and volatility are used as inputs for such valuation techniques.

– For natural gas contracts: Fair value is measured using the discounted difference between contractual rates and quoted market future rates.

(b) Asset Backed Notes (“ABN”) are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 or Level 3 inputs. Fair value of ABN reported under Level 2 is based on current market quotes. Fair value of ABN reported under Level 3 is based on the value of the collateral investments held in the conduit issuer, reduced by the negative value of credit default derivatives, with an additional discount applied for illiquidity.

(c) Fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is measured by comparison to market prices of its debt. In accordance with US GAAP, the Company’s long-term debt is not carried at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. However, fair value disclosure is required. The carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt is $1,417 million and $1,514 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Beginning and Ending Balances Measured at Fair Value on Recurring Basis

The following table reconciles the beginning and ending balances of ABN measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs during the reported periods:

ASSET BACKED NOTES

Balance at December 31, 2013	1
Net unrealized gains included in earnings (a)	—
Transfer out of Level 3 (b)	—
Balance at June 30, 2014	1

(a) Earnings effect is primarily included in Other operating loss, net in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

(b) Transfers out of Level 3 are considered to occur at the end of the period.

Commitments and Contingencies

NOTE 15.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

ENVIRONMENT

The Company is subject to environmental laws and regulations enacted by federal, provincial, state and local authorities.

An action was commenced by Seaspan International Ltd. (“Seaspan”) in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, on March 31, 1999 against the Company and others with respect to alleged contamination of Seaspan’s site bordering Burrard Inlet in North Vancouver, British Columbia, including contamination of sediments in Burrard Inlet, due to the presence of creosote and heavy metals. Beyond the filing of preliminary pleadings, no steps have been taken by the parties in this action. On February 16, 2010, the government of British Columbia issued a Remediation Order to Seaspan and the Company (“responsible persons”) in order to define and implement an action plan to address soil, sediment and groundwater issues. This Order was appealed to the Environmental Appeal Board (“Board”) on March 17, 2010 but there is no suspension in the execution of this Order unless the Board orders otherwise. The relevant government authorities selected a remediation approach on July 15, 2011, and on January 8, 2013, the same authorities decided that each responsible persons’ implementation plan is satisfactory and that the responsible persons should decide which plan is to be used. Most of the remaining appeals that were to be heard before the Board were abandoned by the parties during the course of the Board proceedings which were held in the fall of 2013. Seaspan and Domtar have selected a remedial plan and have applied to the Vancouver Fraser Port Authority for permitting approval. The Company has recorded an environmental reserve to address its estimated exposure. The possible loss in excess of the reserve is not considered to be material for this matter.

The following table reflects changes in the reserve for environmental remediation and asset retirement obligations:

	June 30, 2014
	$
Balance at beginning of period		67
Additions		1
Environmental spending		(4	)
Balance at end of period		64

The Company is also a party to various proceedings relating to the cleanup of hazardous waste sites under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act, commonly known as “Superfund,” and similar state laws. The EPA and/or various state agencies have notified the Company that it may be a potentially responsible party with respect to other hazardous waste sites as to which no proceedings have been instituted against the Company. The Company continues to take remedial action under its Care and Control Program at its former wood preserving sites, and at a number of operating sites due to possible soil, sediment or groundwater contamination. The investigation and remediation process is lengthy and subject to the uncertainties of changes in legal requirements, technological developments and, if and when applicable, the allocation of liability among potentially responsible parties.

Climate change regulation

In response to the Kyoto Protocol, which calls for reductions of certain emissions that may contribute to increases in atmospheric greenhouse gas (“GHG”) concentrations, various international, national and local laws have been proposed or implemented focusing on reducing GHG emissions. These actual or proposed laws do or may apply in the jurisdictions where the Company currently has, or may have in the future, manufacturing facilities or investments.

In the United States, Congress has considered legislation to reduce emissions of GHGs. Although the legislation has not passed, it appears that the federal government will continue to consider methods to reduce GHG emissions from public utilities and certain other emitters. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) has adopted and implemented GHG permitting requirements for certain new sources and modifications of existing industrial facilities and has proposed GHG performance standards for newly constructed, reconstructed and modified electric utilities under the existing Clean Air Act. The EPA has also relied on the existing Clean Air Act to propose a “Clean Power Plan” that would establish emission guidelines for existing electric utilities and require states to develop plans for reducing GHG emissions by making significant changes to the energy resources utilized within the state. The EPA is also developing a biogenic carbon accounting framework to account for carbon dioxide emissions from biomass fuels for Clean Air Act permitting purposes. The EPA also references this framework in the proposals addressing GHG performance standards for the electric utilities. Furthermore, several states are already regulating GHG emissions from public utilities and certain other significant emitters, primarily through regional GHG cap-and-trade programs or renewable energy requirements.

The U.S. Supreme Court held on June 23, 2014 that the EPA had exceeded its statutory authority in establishing its GHG permitting program. Specifically, the Court determined that the EPA could not impose GHG permitting requirements on a source unless that source had already triggered permitting requirements for other non-GHG pollutants. However, for sources already subject to permitting, the Court held that the Clean Air Act did not preclude the EPA from requiring those sources to install “best available control technology” for GHGs.

Passage of GHG legislation by Congress or individual states, or the adoption of regulations by the EPA or analogous state agencies, that restrict emissions of GHGs in areas in which the Company conducts business could have a variety of impacts upon the Company, including requiring it to implement GHG reduction programs or to pay taxes or other fees with respect to its GHG emissions. This, in turn, will increase the Company’s operating costs and capital spending. The Company does not expect to be disproportionately affected by these measures compared with other pulp and paper producers in the United States.

The Government of Canada has committed to reducing greenhouse gases by 17 percent from 2005 levels by 2020. A sector by sector approach is being used to set performance standards to reduce greenhouse gases. On September 5, 2012 final regulations were published for the coal-fired electrical generators which are scheduled to become effective July 1, 2015. Performance standards for industrial sectors will also be developed. The pulp and paper sector is currently undergoing review. The Company does not expect the performance standards to be disproportionately affected by these future measures compared with other pulp and paper producers in Canada.

The province of Quebec initiated a GHG cap-and-trade system on January 1, 2012. Reduction targets for Quebec have been promulgated and were effective January 1, 2013. The Company does not expect the cost of compliance will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. British Columbia imposed a carbon tax in 2008, which applies to the purchase of fossil fuels within the province. There are currently no other federal or provincial statutory or regulatory obligations that affect the emission of GHGs for the Company’s pulp and paper operations elsewhere in Canada. The Province of Ontario is reviewing a potential regulatory program for GHG emission reductions that may include a cap-and-trade component.

While it is likely that there will be increased regulation relating to GHG emissions in the future, at this time it is not possible to estimate either a timetable for the promulgation or implementation of any new regulations or the Company’s cost of compliance to said regulations. The impact could, however, be material.

Industrial Boiler Maximum Achievable Control Technology Standard (“MACT”)

On December 2, 2011, the EPA proposed a new set of standards related to emissions from boilers and process heaters included in some of the Company’s manufacturing processes. These standards are generally referred to as Boiler MACT and seek to require reductions in the emission of certain hazardous air pollutants or surrogates of hazardous air pollutants. The EPA announced the final rule on December 20, 2012 and it was subsequently published in the Federal Register on January 31, 2013 for major sources. The Company is developing plans to bring facilities affected by the Boiler MACT rule into compliance by the January 2016 regulatory deadline for major sources. The Company expects that the capital cost required to comply with the Boiler MACT rules is between $20 million and $30 million. The Company is currently assessing the associated increase in operating costs as well as alternate compliance strategies.

The EPA has agreed to reconsider a limited number of issues in the most recent Boiler MACT rule, and elements of the EPA’s rule have been legally challenged. Since the consequences of these activities cannot be predicted, adjustments to compliance plans may be needed to accommodate any changes to the final rule.

CONTINGENCIES

In the normal course of operations, the Company becomes involved in various legal actions mostly related to contract disputes, patent infringements, environmental and product warranty claims, and labor issues. While the final outcome with respect to actions outstanding or pending at June 30, 2014, cannot be predicted with certainty, it is management’s opinion that their resolution will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

INDEMNIFICATIONS

In the normal course of business, the Company offers indemnifications relating to the sale of its businesses and real estate. In general, these indemnifications may relate to claims from past business operations, the failure to abide by covenants and the breach of representations and warranties included in the sales agreements. Typically, such representations and warranties relate to taxation, environmental, product and employee matters. The terms of these indemnification agreements are generally for an unlimited period of time. At June 30, 2014, the Company is unable to estimate the potential maximum liabilities for these types of indemnification guarantees as the amounts are contingent upon the outcome of future events, the nature and likelihood of which cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Accordingly, no provision has been recorded. These indemnifications have not yielded a significant expense in the past.

Pension Plans

The Company has indemnified and held harmless the trustees of its pension funds, and the respective officers, directors, employees and agents of such trustees, from any and all costs and expenses arising out of the performance of their obligations under the relevant trust agreements, including in respect of their reliance on authorized instructions from the Company or for failing to act in the absence of authorized instructions. These indemnifications survive the termination of such agreements. At June 30, 2014 the Company has not recorded a liability associated with these indemnifications, as it does not expect to make any payments pertaining to these indemnifications.

Income Taxes

NOTE 8.

INCOME TAXES

For the second quarter of 2014, the Company’s income tax expense amounted to $13 million, consisting of a current tax expense of $19 million and a deferred tax benefit of $6 million. This compares to an income tax benefit of $5 million in the second quarter of 2013, consisting of a current income tax benefit of $4 million and a deferred income tax benefit of $1 million. The Company made income tax payments, net of refunds, of $20 million during the second quarter of 2014 and the effective tax rate was 25% compared to an effective tax rate of 10% in the second quarter of 2013. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2013 was impacted by the George Weston Limited litigation settlement payment made during the quarter of $49 million (CDN $50 million). Approximately $38 million (CDN $39 million) of this payment was non-deductible for income tax purposes.

For the first half of 2014, the Company’s income tax expense amounted to $28 million, consisting of a current tax expense of $34 million and a deferred tax benefit of $6 million. This compares to an income tax benefit of $27 million in the first half of 2013, consisting of a current income tax benefit of $27 million and a deferred income tax benefit of nil. The Company made income tax payments, net of refunds, of $19 million during the first half of 2014 and the effective tax rate was 26% compared to an effective tax rate of 100% in the first half of 2013. The effective tax rate for the first half of 2013 was impacted by the conversion of $26 million of Alternative Fuel Tax Credits (“AFTC”) from the 2009 tax year into $55 million of Cellulosic Biofuel Producer Credits (“CBPC”) ($33 million benefit after-tax) as well as a reduction of unrecognized tax benefits of $8 million previously associated with AFTC from 2009 that were converted into CBPC in the first half of 2013. These tax benefits were partially offset by the $49 million (CDN $50 million) litigation settlement payment due to $38 million (CDN $39 million) being non-deductible for income tax purposes.

As of June 30, 2014, the Company has gross unrecognized tax benefits and interest of $198 million and related deferred tax assets of $20 million associated with the AFTC claimed on the 2009 tax return. The recognition of these benefits, $178 million net of deferred taxes, would impact the effective tax rate. During the second quarter of 2012, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) began an audit of the Company’s 2009 U.S. income tax return and in the third quarter of 2013 expanded the audit period to include the tax returns for the 2010 and 2011 tax years. The completion of the audit by the IRS or the issuance of authoritative guidance could result in the release of the provision or settlement of the liability in cash of some or all of these previously unrecognized tax benefits. The Company reasonably expects the audit to be settled within the next twelve months which could result in a significant change to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits. However, audit outcomes and the timing of audit settlements are subject to significant uncertainty.

ACQUISITION OF BUSINESSES

Acquisition of Laboratorios Indas

On January 2, 2014, Domtar Corporation completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding shares of Laboratorios Indas, S.A.U. (“Indas”) a branded incontinence products manufacturer and marketer in Spain. Indas has approximately 440 employees and operates two manufacturing facilities in Spain. The results of Indas’ operations have been included in the Personal Care reportable segment as of January 2, 2014. The purchase price was $546 million (€399 million) in cash, net of cash acquired of $46 million (€34 million). The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting, in accordance with the Business Combinations Topic of FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

The total purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the Company’s estimates of their fair value, which are based on information currently available. The fair value of all elements, including expected useful lives of tangible and intangibles assets are preliminary and remain to be finalized. The Company will complete the valuation of all assets and liabilities within the next six months.

The table below illustrates the preliminary purchase price allocation:

Fair value of net assets acquired at the date of acquisition
Receivables		101

Goodwill represents the future economic benefit arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. The goodwill is attributable to the general reputation of the business, the assembled workforce, the expected synergies and the expected future cash flows of the business. Disclosed goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

Xerox

On June 1, 2013, Domtar Corporation completed the acquisition of Xerox’s paper and print media product’s assets in the United States and Canada. The transaction includes a broad range of coated and uncoated papers and specialty print media including business forms, carbonless as well as wide-format paper formerly distributed by Xerox. The results of this business are presented in the Pulp and Paper reportable segment. The purchase price was $7 million in cash plus inventory on a dollar for dollar basis. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting, in accordance with the Business Combinations Topic of FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

The total purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired based on the Company’s estimates of their fair value, which was based on information currently available. During the third quarter of 2013, the Company completed the evaluation of all assets and liabilities.

Accounting Changes And Error Corrections [Abstract]

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

NOTE 2.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

ACCOUNTING CHANGES IMPLEMENTED

FOREIGN CURRENCY MATTERS

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, an update to Foreign Currency Matters, which indicates that a cumulative translation adjustment is attached to the parent’s investment in a foreign entity and should be released in a manner consistent with the derecognition guidance on investments in entities. Thus, the entire amount of the cumulative translation adjustment associated with the foreign entity would be released when there has been (1) a sale of a subsidiary or group of net assets within a foreign entity and the sale represents the substantially complete liquidation of the investment in the foreign entity; (2) a loss of a controlling financial interest in an investment in a foreign entity; or (3) a step acquisition for a foreign entity. The update does not change the requirement to release a pro rata portion of the cumulative translation adjustment of the foreign entity into earnings for a partial sale of an equity method investment in a foreign entity.

The Company adopted the new requirement on January 1, 2014 with no impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements, as no triggering event occurred throughout the period.

INCOME TAXES

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, which provides guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. ASU 2013-11 requires entities to present an unrecognized tax benefit as a reduction of a deferred tax asset for a NOL or tax credit carryforward whenever the NOL or tax credit carryforward would be available to reduce the additional taxable income or tax due if the tax position is disallowed. This accounting standard update requires entities to assess whether to net the unrecognized tax benefit with a deferred tax asset as of the reporting date.

The Company adopted the new requirement on January 1, 2014 with no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements except for the change in presentation.

FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGES

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, an update on Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. The amendments in this update change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and require additional disclosures for both disposal transactions that meet the criteria for a discontinued operation and disposals that do not meet these criteria. The objective of this update is to reach a greater convergence between the FASB’s and IASB’s reporting requirements for discontinued operations. The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014 and will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements unless a disposal transaction occurs after the effective date.

REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-9, an update on revenue from contracts with customers. The core principal of this guideline is that an entity should recognize revenue, to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the entity is entitled to, in exchange for those goods and services. Guidance in this section supersedes the revenue recognition requirements found in topic 605.

The amendment will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating these changes to determine whether they have an impact on the presentation of the consolidated financial statements. The Company does not expect these changes to have a material impact.

STOCK COMPENSATION

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, an update on stock compensation. The guideline requires performance targets, which affect vesting and can be achieved after the requisite service period, to be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. If achievement of the performance target becomes probable before the end of the requisite service period, the remaining unrecognized compensation cost should be recognized prospectively over the remaining requisite service period.

The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating these changes to determine whether they have an impact on the presentation of the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Earnings (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The Company does not expect these changes to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Equity [Abstract]

Shareholders' Equity

NOTE 14.

SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

On February 18, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.275 per share to be paid to holders of the Company’s common stock, as well as holders of exchangeable shares of Domtar (Canada) Paper Inc. Total dividends of approximately $18 million were paid on April 15, 2014 to shareholders of record on March 14, 2014.

On April 30, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 2-for-1 split of its common stock to be effected through a stock dividend. Shareholders of record on June 10, 2014 received one additional share for every share they owned on that date. As a result of the stock split, total shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding increased from approximately 32.5 million to 65 million.

In addition, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase in the quarterly dividend on its common stock on a post-split basis, from $0.275 to $0.375 per share. This is equivalent to, on a pre-split basis, an increase of $0.20 per share (36%) per quarter. Total dividends of approximately $24 million were paid on July 15, 2014 to shareholders of record on July 2, 2014.

On July 30, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.375 per share to be paid to holders of the Company’s common stock. This dividend is to be paid on October 15, 2014, to shareholders of record on October 2, 2014.

STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM

In 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program (“the Program”) of up to $1 billion of Domtar Corporation’s common stock. Under the Program, the Company is authorized to repurchase from time to time shares of its outstanding common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in the United States. The timing and amount of stock repurchases will depend on a variety of factors, including the market conditions as well as corporate and regulatory considerations. The Program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time and the Company has no obligation to repurchase any amount of its common stock under the Program. The Program has no set expiration date. The Company repurchases its common stock, from time to time, in part to reduce the dilutive effects of stock options, awards, and to improve shareholders’ returns.

The Company makes open market purchases of its common stock using general corporate funds. Additionally, the Company enteres into structured stock repurchase agreements with large financial institutions using general corporate funds in order to lower the average cost to acquire shares. The agreements requires the Company to make up-front payments to the counterparty financial institutions which results in either the receipt of stock at the beginning of the term of the agreements followed by a share adjustment at the maturity of the agreements, or the receipt of either stock or cash at the maturity of the agreements, depending upon the price of the stock.

During the first half of 2014, the Company did not repurchase any shares under the Program.

During the first half of 2013, the Company repurchased 3,952,952 shares at an average price of $37.13 for a total cost of $147 million.

Since the inception of the Program, the Company repurchased 22,341,012 shares at an average price of $39.24 for a total cost of $877 million. All shares repurchased are recorded as Treasury stock on the Consolidated Balance Sheets under the par value method at $0.01 per share.

Domtar Canada Paper Inc. Exchangeable Shares

Upon the consummation of a series of transactions whereby the Fine Paper Business of Weyerhaeuser Company was transferred to the Company and it acquired Domtar Inc. on March 7, 2007 (the “Transaction”), Domtar Inc. shareholders had the option to receive either common stock of the Company or shares of Domtar (Canada) Paper Inc. that were exchangeable for common stock of the Company. The exchangeable shares of Domtar (Canada) Paper Inc. were intended to be substantially the economic equivalent to shares of the Company’s common stock. These shareholders could exchange the exchangeable shares for shares of Domtar Corporation common stock on a one-for-one basis at any time.

On June 2, 2014 (the “Redemption Date”) Domtar (Canada) Paper Inc., a subsidiary of Domtar Corporation, redeemed all of its outstanding exchangeable shares from the holders thereof. On the Redemption Date, holders of exchangeable shares received, in exchange for each exchangeable share, one share of common stock of Domtar Corporation (plus cash in the amount of all declared and unpaid dividends, if any, provided that the record date for the payment of such dividends was prior to the Redemption Date).

As a result of the redemption of exchangeable shares, the Company reclassified $32 million from Exchangeable shares to Additional paid-in capital.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities and Fair Value Measurement

NOTE 4.

DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

INTEREST RATE RISK

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk arising from fluctuations in interest rates on its cash and cash equivalents, bank indebtedness, bank credit facility and long-term debt. The Company may manage this interest rate exposure through the use of derivative instruments such as interest rate swap contracts.

CREDIT RISK

The Company is exposed to credit risk on the accounts receivable from its customers. In order to reduce this risk, the Company reviews new customers’ credit history before granting credit and conducts regular reviews of existing customers’ credit performance. As of June 30, 2014, one of Domtar’s Pulp and Paper segment customers located in the United States represented 10% ($69 million) (2013 – 12% ($73 million)) of the Company’s receivables.

The Company is also exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by counterparties to its financial instruments. The Company minimizes this exposure by entering into contracts with counterparties that are believed to be of high credit quality. Collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk is usually not obtained. The credit standing of counterparties is regularly monitored. Additionally, the Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by its insurers. The Company minimizes this exposure by doing business only with large reputable insurance companies.

COST RISK

Cash flow hedges:

The Company purchases natural gas at the prevailing market price at the time of delivery. In order to manage the cash flow risk associated with purchases of natural gas, the Company may utilize derivative financial instruments or physical purchases to fix the price of forecasted natural gas purchases. The Company formally documents the hedge relationships, including identification of the hedging instruments and the hedged items, the risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transactions, and the methodologies used to assess effectiveness and measure ineffectiveness. Current contracts are used to hedge a portion of forecasted purchases over the next 42 months. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges is recorded net of taxes in Other comprehensive income (loss), and is recognized in Cost of sales in the period in which the hedged transaction occurs.

The following table presents the volumes under derivative financial instruments for natural gas contracts outstanding as of June 30, 2014 to hedge forecasted purchases:

Commodity	Notional contractual quantity under derivative contracts				Notional contractual  value under derivative contracts (in millions of dollars)		Percentage of forecasted purchases under derivative contracts for
							2014(2)			2015			2016			2017
Natural gas		20,400,000	MMBTU	(1)	$	85		53	%		45	%		32	%		10	%

(1) MMBTU: Millions of British thermal units

(2) Represents the remaining six months of 2014

The natural gas derivative contracts were fully effective for accounting purposes as of June 30, 2014. The critical terms of the hedging instruments and the hedged items match. As a result, there were no amounts reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 resulting from hedge ineffectiveness (three and six months ended June 30, 2013 – nil).

FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK

Cash flow hedges:

The Company has manufacturing operations in the United States, Canada, Sweden, Spain and China. As a result, it is exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates in Canada, Europe and Asia. Moreover, certain assets and liabilities are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar and are exposed to foreign currency movements. As a result, the Company’s earnings are affected by increases or decreases in the value of the Canadian dollar and of European and Asian currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. The Company’s Swedish and Spanish subsidiaries are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates on transactions denominated in a currency other than its Euro functional currency. The Company’s risk management policy allows it to hedge a significant portion of its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for periods up to three years. The Company may use derivative instruments (currency options and foreign exchange forward contracts) to mitigate its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates or to designate them as hedging instruments in order to hedge the subsidiary’s cash flow risk for purposes of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company formally documents the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transactions. Foreign exchange derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges are used to hedge forecasted purchases in Canadian dollars by the Canadian subsidiary over the next 24 months. Foreign exchange derivative option contracts designated as cash flow hedges are used to hedge forecasted sales in British Pound Sterling and forecasted purchases in U.S. dollars by the Swedish and Spanish subsidiaries over the next 12 months. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges is recorded net of taxes in Other comprehensive income (loss) and is recognized in Cost of sales or in Sales in the period in which the hedged transaction occurs.

The following table presents the currency values under contracts pursuant to currency derivatives outstanding as of June 30, 2014 to hedge forecasted purchases and sales:

Contract		Notional contractual value		Percentage of forecasted net exposures under contracts for
				2014			2015
Currency derivatives purchased	CDN	$	490		53	%		31	%
	USD	$	45		68	%		36	%
	GBP	£	16		85	%		40	%
Currency derivatives sold	CDN	$	490		53	%		31	%
	USD	$	45		68	%		36	%
	GBP	£	16		85	%		40	%

The currency options and forwards are fully effective as at June 30, 2014. The critical terms of the hedging instruments and the hedged items match. As a result, there were no amounts reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 resulting from hedge ineffectiveness (2013 – nil).

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

The accounting standards for fair value measurements and disclosures, establishes a fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement.

Level 1	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2	Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3	Inputs that are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The following tables present information about the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (except Long-term debt, see (c) below) at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, in accordance with the accounting standards for fair value measurements and disclosures and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value.

(a) Fair value of the Company’s derivatives is classified under Level 2 (inputs that are observable; directly or indirectly) as it is measured as follows:

– For currency derivatives: Fair value is measured using techniques derived from the Black-Scholes pricing model. Interest rates, forward market rates and volatility are used as inputs for such valuation techniques.

– For natural gas contracts: Fair value is measured using the discounted difference between contractual rates and quoted market future rates.

(b) Asset Backed Notes (“ABN”) are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 or Level 3 inputs. Fair value of ABN reported under Level 2 is based on current market quotes. Fair value of ABN reported under Level 3 is based on the value of the collateral investments held in the conduit issuer, reduced by the negative value of credit default derivatives, with an additional discount applied for illiquidity.

(c) Fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is measured by comparison to market prices of its debt. In accordance with US GAAP, the Company’s long-term debt is not carried at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. However, fair value disclosure is required. The carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt is $1,417 million and $1,514 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Due to their short-term maturity, the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, bank indebtedness, trade and other payables and income and other taxes approximate their fair values.

The following table reconciles the beginning and ending balances of ABN measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs during the reported periods:

Restructuring And Related Activities [Abstract]

Closure and Restructuring Costs and Liability and Impairment and Write-Down of Property, Plant and Equipment

NOTE 12.

CLOSURE AND RESTRUCTURING COSTS AND LIABILITY AND IMPAIRMENT AND WRITE-DOWN OF PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

The Company regularly reviews its overall production capacity with the objective of aligning its production capacity with anticipated long-term demand, which in some cases could result in closure or impairment costs being recorded in earnings.

In relation to the withdrawal from one of the Company’s multiemployer pension plans in 2011, the Company recorded an additional charge to earnings of $1 million due to a revision in estimated withdrawal liability during the first quarter of 2013. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company decided to withdraw from another of its multiemployer pension plans and recorded a withdrawal liability and a charge to earnings of $3 million. At June 30, 2014, the current accrual balance is $62 million. While this is the Company’s best estimate of the ultimate cost of the withdrawal from these plans at June 30, 2014, additional withdrawal liabilities may be incurred based on the final fund assessment expected to occur in the third quarter of 2014. Further, the Company remains liable for potential additional withdrawal liabilities to the fund in the event of a mass withdrawal, as defined by statute, occurring anytime within the next two years.

During the second quarter of 2013, the Company also incurred pension settlement losses in the amount of $13 million related to the previously closed Big River sawmill and Dryden paper mill for $6 million and $7 million, respectively.

Ariva U.S.

On July 31, 2013, the Company completed the sale of its Ariva U.S. which had approximately 400 employees in the United States. As a result of this agreement, during the second quarter of 2013, the Company recorded a $5 million impairment of property, plant and equipment at its Ariva U.S. location, in Impairment and write-down of property, plant and equipment on the Consolidated Statement of Earnings (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Kamloops, British Columbia pulp facility

On December 13, 2012, the Company announced the permanent shut down of one pulp machine at its Kamloops, British Columbia mill. This decision resulted in a permanent curtailment of Domtar’s annual pulp production by approximately 120,000 air dried metric tons of sawdust softwood pulp and affected approximately 125 employees.

As a result, the Company recognized, under Impairment and write-down of property plant and equipment, $10 million of accelerated depreciation in the first quarter of 2013. The pulp machine ceased production in March 2013. Further, during the first quarter of 2013 the Company reversed $1 million of severance and termination costs. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company reversed an additional $1 million of severance and termination costs, reversed $1 million of inventory obsolescence, and incurred $2 million of other costs.

Other Costs

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company also incurred other costs related to previous and ongoing closures which includes nil and $1 million of severance and termination costs, respectively (2013 – $2 million and $2 million, respectively).

The following tables provide the components of closure and restructuring costs by segment:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Policies)

Foreign Currency Matters

FOREIGN CURRENCY MATTERS

In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, an update to Foreign Currency Matters, which indicates that a cumulative translation adjustment is attached to the parent’s investment in a foreign entity and should be released in a manner consistent with the derecognition guidance on investments in entities. Thus, the entire amount of the cumulative translation adjustment associated with the foreign entity would be released when there has been (1) a sale of a subsidiary or group of net assets within a foreign entity and the sale represents the substantially complete liquidation of the investment in the foreign entity; (2) a loss of a controlling financial interest in an investment in a foreign entity; or (3) a step acquisition for a foreign entity. The update does not change the requirement to release a pro rata portion of the cumulative translation adjustment of the foreign entity into earnings for a partial sale of an equity method investment in a foreign entity.

The Company adopted the new requirement on January 1, 2014 with no impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements, as no triggering event occurred throughout the period.

Income Taxes

INCOME TAXES

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, which provides guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. ASU 2013-11 requires entities to present an unrecognized tax benefit as a reduction of a deferred tax asset for a NOL or tax credit carryforward whenever the NOL or tax credit carryforward would be available to reduce the additional taxable income or tax due if the tax position is disallowed. This accounting standard update requires entities to assess whether to net the unrecognized tax benefit with a deferred tax asset as of the reporting date.

The Company adopted the new requirement on January 1, 2014 with no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements except for the change in presentation.

Future Accounting Changes [Member]

Discontinued Operations

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, an update on Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. The amendments in this update change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and require additional disclosures for both disposal transactions that meet the criteria for a discontinued operation and disposals that do not meet these criteria. The objective of this update is to reach a greater convergence between the FASB’s and IASB’s reporting requirements for discontinued operations. The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014 and will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements unless a disposal transaction occurs after the effective date.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-9, an update on revenue from contracts with customers. The core principal of this guideline is that an entity should recognize revenue, to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the entity is entitled to, in exchange for those goods and services. Guidance in this section supersedes the revenue recognition requirements found in topic 605.

The amendment will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating these changes to determine whether they have an impact on the presentation of the consolidated financial statements. The Company does not expect these changes to have a material impact.

Stock Compensation

STOCK COMPENSATION

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, an update on stock compensation. The guideline requires performance targets, which affect vesting and can be achieved after the requisite service period, to be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. If achievement of the performance target becomes probable before the end of the requisite service period, the remaining unrecognized compensation cost should be recognized prospectively over the remaining requisite service period.

The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating these changes to determine whether they have an impact on the presentation of the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Earnings (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The Company does not expect these changes to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
