NOTE 1 Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation
GENERAL
We are principally engaged in the manufacturing and selling of pulp-based products. We manufacture quality consumer tissue, away-from-home tissue, parent roll tissue, machine-glazed tissue, bleached paperboard, pulp and wood products at 15 manufacturing locations in the U.S. and Canada. Our private label tissue products, such as facial and bath tissue, paper towels and napkins, are used primarily at-home and are principally sold to major retailers and wholesale distributors, which include grocery, drug, mass merchants and discount stores. Our paperboard is sold primarily in the high-end segment of the packaging industry and is ultimately used by our customers to make packaging for products ranging from liquids to pharmaceuticals to consumer goods packaging, all of which demand high quality construction and print surfaces for graphics. We also manufacture wood products, including quality cedar used for its attractive appearance, and lumber products for construction.
On December 27, 2010, we acquired Cellu Tissue Holdings, Inc., or Cellu Tissue, and consolidated the acquisition in our financial statements as of that date. The financial position and results of Cellu Tissues operations and cash flows are fully reflected in these condensed consolidated financial statements relating to periods subsequent to the acquisition date.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, and the related Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Cash Flows, and Comprehensive Income for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. We believe that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented have been included. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on March 11, 2011.
We evaluated all subsequent events through the date these financial statements were filed with the SEC.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Significant areas requiring the use of estimates and measurement of uncertainty include the determination of net realizable value for deferred tax assets, environmental matters, goodwill and intangible assets, uncertain tax positions and pension and postretirement obligation assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
TRADE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had allowances of $1.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively, for doubtful accounts based on our estimates of the collectability of outstanding receivables.
INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at the lower of current average cost or market, except that the last-in, first-out method is used to determine cost of logs, chips, sawdust and the majority of our lumber. An average cost method is used to determine the cost of all other inventories.
6
PROPERTIES
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, including any interest costs capitalized, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of buildings, equipment and other depreciable assets is determined using the straight-line method. Assets we acquire through business combinations have estimated lives that are typically shorter than the assets we construct or buy new. Accumulated depreciation totaled $1,323.7 million and $1,290.1 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, we capitalized $1.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of interest expense associated with the construction of our new tissue manufacturing and converting facilities in Shelby, North Carolina.
EMPLOYEES
Unions represent hourly employees at seven of our manufacturing sites. There are no hourly union labor contracts expiring in 2011. The union contracts that had expired as set forth on page 9 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 were all ratified during the second quarter of 2011.
NOTE 2 Recently Adopted and New Accounting Standards
In June 2011, accounting guidance was issued related to Other Comprehensive Income, or OCI. The guidance eliminates the option to present the components of OCI as part of the statement of changes in stockholders equity, and instead requires consecutive presentation of the statements of net income and OCI either in a continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with earlier adoption permitted, and adoption will not impact the accounting for OCI, only its presentation in our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2010, accounting guidance was issued that modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that an impairment may exist such as if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. This guidance became effective for us on January 1, 2011 and has not had an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 5 Taxes
Pursuant to authoritative guidance, we use our estimated annual effective tax rate to allocate expected annual income tax expense to interim periods. The rate is the ratio of estimated annual income tax expense to estimated pre-tax ordinary income, and excludes what we refer to as discrete items, which are significant, unusual or infrequent items reported separately net of their related tax effect. The estimated annual effective tax rate is applied to the current interim periods ordinary income to determine the income tax expense allocated to the interim period. The income tax effects of discrete items are then determined separately and recognized in the interim period in which the income or expense items arise.
Our estimated annual effective tax rate for 2011 is 35.2%, compared with 34.8% at June 30, 2010. We recorded income tax expense of $8.6 million and $14.8 million, respectively in the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $12.6 million and $18.4 million, respectively, in the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. The actual rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 were 38.3% and 43.1%, respectively, compared to rates of 38.0% and 46.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. As discussed below, the higher rates for the six month periods resulted from the net impact of reporting discrete items of approximately $2.7 million of net expense in the six months ended June 30, 2011 period, and $4.7 million of net expense in the six months ended June 30, 2010.
The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily impacted by three main discrete items. The first was an increase in tax expense based on evaluating our state tax structure as Cellu Tissue is integrated with the Companys operations. The second discrete item was a decrease in tax expense associated with certain transaction costs relating to the Cellu Tissue acquisition that were determined to be deductible under the Internal Revenue Code. The final discrete item was an increase to tax expense relating to interest accrued on uncertain tax positions for the period. The higher tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was primarily due to the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act on March 23, 2010, which required us to reverse $4.4 million of deferred tax assets during the period ended March 31, 2010 relating to the elimination of an income tax deduction for prescription drug benefits provided to retirees and reimbursed under the Medicare Part D retiree drug subsidy beginning in January 2013, for which there is no comparable impact in 2011.
We are eligible to convert gallons previously claimed under the Alternative Fuel Mixture Tax Credit, or AFMTC, to the Cellulosic Biofuel Producer Credit, or CBPC; however, due to CBPC carryovers from 2010, we do not anticipate converting additional gallons from AFMTC to CBPC during 2011. We have the ability to convert additional gallons to CBPC until the end of 2013.

NOTE 7 Debt
$375 MILLION SENIOR NOTES DUE 2018
On October 22, 2010, we sold $375.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes, which we refer to as the 2010 Notes. The 2010 Notes mature on November 1, 2018, have an interest rate of 7.125% and were issued at their face value. The issuance of these notes generated net proceeds of $367.5 million after deducting offering expenses. The net proceeds from the issuance of the 2010 Notes were used to finance in part our acquisition of Cellu Tissue, to refinance certain existing indebtedness of Cellu Tissue, and to pay fees and expenses incurred as part of the 2010 Note offering, acquisition of Cellu Tissue and related transactions.
The 2010 Notes are guaranteed by Cellu Tissue and certain of our other existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries. The 2010 Notes are equal in right of payment with all other existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness and are senior in right of payment to any future subordinated indebtedness. The 2010 Notes are effectively subordinated to all of our existing and future secured indebtedness, including borrowings under our secured revolving credit facility, which is secured by certain of our accounts receivable, inventory and cash. The terms of the 2010 Notes limit our ability and the ability of any restricted subsidiaries to borrow money; pay dividends; redeem or repurchase capital stock; make investments; sell assets; create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts to us from any restricted subsidiaries; enter into transactions with affiliates; enter into sale and lease back transactions; create liens; and consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of our assets.
In connection with the issuance of the 2010 Notes, we entered into a registration rights agreement with the initial purchaser of the 2010 Notes. Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, we filed a registration statement on April 29, 2011 with the Securities Exchange Commission, or SEC, pursuant to which we exchanged the 2010 Notes on June 28, 2011, for notes with substantially similar terms that are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
$150 MILLION SENIOR NOTES DUE 2016
In June 2009, we issued senior unsecured notes, which we refer to as the 2009 Notes, in aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million. The 2009 Notes are due on September 15, 2016 and have an interest rate of 10.625%. The 2009 Notes were issued at a price equal to 98.792% of their face value.
The 2009 Notes are general unsecured obligations and are therefore not secured by our assets and are effectively subordinated to all of our existing and future secured indebtedness, including borrowings under our secured revolving credit facility, which is secured by certain of our accounts receivable, inventory and cash. The terms of the 2009 Notes limit our ability and the ability of any restricted subsidiaries to borrow money; pay dividends; redeem or repurchase capital stock; make investments; sell assets; create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts to us from any restricted subsidiaries; enter into transactions with affiliates; enter into sale and lease back transactions; create liens; and consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of our assets.

CITYFOREST INDUSTRIAL BONDS
In connection with our acquisition of Cellu Tissue, we assumed Variable Rate Demand Solid Waste Disposal Facility Revenue Bonds, Series 1998, or IRBs, previously issued by a subsidiary of Cellu Tissue. Approximately $15.2 million in aggregate principal face amount of the IRBs was outstanding at June 30, 2011. The IRBs have scheduled semi-annual payments of principal, with the balance payable at maturity on March 1, 2028. The variable interest rate on the IRBs was 2.28% as of June 30, 2011. The IRBs are guaranteed by Cellu Tissue and contain various customary covenants and events of default.
Cellu Tissue-CityForest LLC, or CityForest, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cellu Tissue, is required, under the terms of the Indenture of Trust governing the IRBs, or CityForest Indenture, to provide a letter of credit in favor of the trustee. CityForest is a party to a Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement dated as of December 27, 2010, with Associated Bank pursuant to which Associated Bank provided a letter of credit to the trustee. The trustee is permitted to draw upon the letter of credit to pay principal and interest due on the IRBs, and to provide liquidity to purchase IRBs put to CityForest by bondholders and not remarketed; and CityForest is obligated under the Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement to reimburse Associated Bank for any such draws. The expiration date of the letter of credit is February 15, 2012. Under the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement, CityForest is required, on or before September 30, 2011, to cause the letter of credit to be replaced with a substitute letter of credit from a third-party bank. CityForests failure to cause the letter of credit to be replaced by September 30, 2011 will constitute an event of default under the Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement.
The Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement contains various customary covenants applicable to CityForest, including a requirement to comply on a quarterly basis with a maximum leverage covenant and a minimum fixed charge coverage covenant based on CityForests balance sheet and statement of operations. The maximum permitted leverage ratio is 2.5 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2011, the leverage ratio was 1.3 to 1.0. The minimum permitted fixed charge coverage ratio is 1.2 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2011, the fixed charge coverage ratio was 4.6 to 1.0.
Clearwater Paper has guaranteed all of the obligations of CityForest under the Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement, pursuant to a Guaranty, dated as of December 27, 2010, executed in favor of Associated Bank.
The Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement provides that in certain circumstances where Cellu Tissue incurs indebtedness, as defined, in excess of amounts currently permitted under the CityForest Indenture or refinances the indebtedness issued under the CityForest Indenture, CityForest may be required to cause the bonds to be redeemed or provide a new letter of credit from another lender. As required by the Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement, we had $1.1 million of restricted cash as of June 30, 2011.
During the second quarter of 2011, we made the determination to redeem the outstanding balance of the IRBs and are initiating that process. As a result, the entire $15.2 million balance of the IRBs and the associated restricted cash are included in Current portion of long-term debt and Restricted cash, respectively, on our June 30, 2011 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY
On November 26, 2008, we entered into a four-year $125 million revolving credit facility with certain financial institutions. The amount available to us under the revolving credit facility is based on the lesser of 85% of our eligible accounts receivable plus approximately 65% of our eligible inventory, or $125 million.
As of June 30, 2011, there were no borrowings outstanding under the credit facility, but approximately $8.4 million of the credit facility was being used to support outstanding standby letters of credit. Loans under the credit facility bear interest at LIBOR plus between 2.25% and 2.75% for LIBOR loans, and a base rate effectively equal to the agent banks prime rate plus between 0.75% and 1.25% for other loans. The percentage margin on all loans is based on our fixed charge coverage ratio for the last fiscal quarter, which is recalculated on a quarterly basis. As of June 30, 2011, we would have been permitted to draw $116.6 million under the credit facility at LIBOR plus 2.75%.
10
A minimum fixed charge coverage ratio is the only financial covenant requirement under our credit facility and is triggered when an event of default exists or when availability falls below 20%, at which time the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio must be at least 1.0 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2011, the fixed charge coverage ratio for the last twelve months was 1.2 to 1.0.

As discussed in the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our 2010 Form 10-K, our company-sponsored pension plans were underfunded by $55.4 million at December 31, 2010. The funded status as of December 31, 2010 improved by $40.5 million over the funded status as of December 31, 2009 due to cash contributions made to the pension plans during 2010, positive returns on pension asset investments and plan changes resulting in the salaried pension plan being closed to new entrants commencing December 15, 2010 and frozen as to the accrual of further benefits effective December 31, 2011. As a result of being underfunded, we are required to make contributions to our qualified pension plans. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we contributed $8.5 million to these pension plans. In July 2011, we contributed an additional $1.3 million. Our remaining required contributions for 2011 are expected to be approximately $2.7 million (plus interest).
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we made approximately $0.1 million of contributions to our non-qualified pension plan, and we estimate contributions will total approximately $0.3 million in 2011. We do not anticipate funding our OPEB plans in 2011 except to pay benefit costs as incurred during the year by plan participants.

DIRECTOR AWARDS
We recorded director equity-based compensation income totaling $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, as a result of a lower stock price at the end of the period, and expense of $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. We recorded director equity-based compensation expense totaling $0.2 million and $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

NOTE 11 Fair Value Measurements
The estimated fair values of our financial instruments at the dates presented below are as follows:
June 30, 2011 | December 31, 2010 | |||||||||||||||
(In thousands) |
Carrying Amount |
Fair Value | Carrying Amount |

Long-term debt (Level 1) |
538,798 | 568,153 | 539,074 | 571,158 |
Accounting guidance establishes a framework for measuring the fair value of financial instruments, providing a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, or Level 1 measurements, and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs, or Level 3 measurements.
The assets or liabilitys fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used should seek to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
NOTE 12 Segment Information
We are organized in two reportable operating segments: Consumer Products and Pulp and Paperboard. Prior to January 1, 2011, intersegment pulp transfers from our Pulp and Paperboard segment to our Consumer Products segment were recorded as net sales for the Pulp and Paperboard segment at prevailing market prices and eliminated, on a consolidated basis, to reconcile the segments total net sales to our consolidated net sales. Commencing January 1, 2011, rather than recording the intersegment transfer of pulp through net sales, the costs of pulp are transferred from the Pulp and Paperboard segment to the Consumer Products segment. As a result, there are no eliminations required to reconcile our total consolidated net sales to the segments total net sales. In order to facilitate comparability with the 2010 period, the operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 have been recast to reflect the revised cost transfer methodology.

Under our stock repurchase program, we may repurchase shares in the open market or as otherwise may be determined by management, subject to market conditions, business opportunities and other factors.
NOTE 14 Supplemental Guarantor Financial Information
On October 22, 2010, we issued the 2010 Notes. Certain of our domestic 100% owned subsidiaries fully and unconditionally guarantee the 2010 Notes on a joint and several basis. The 2010 Notes are not guaranteed by Interlake Acquisition Corporation Limited, or Interlake, and CityForest. Interlake is a foreign entity, and CityForest is excluded due to restrictions associated with the IRBs. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of the guarantor subsidiaries to make distributions to Clearwater Paper, the issuer of the 2010 Notes. The following tables present the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of Clearwater Paper and its subsidiaries, the guarantor and non-guarantor entities, and the eliminations necessary to arrive at the information for Clearwater Paper on a consolidated basis.

OVERVIEW
Background
We are principally engaged in the manufacturing and selling of pulp-based products. We manufacture quality consumer tissue, away-from-home tissue, parent roll tissue, machine-glazed tissue, bleached paperboard, pulp and wood products at 15 manufacturing locations in the U.S. and Canada. Our private label tissue products, such as facial and bath tissue, paper towels and napkins, are used primarily at-home and are principally sold to major retailers and wholesale distributors, which include grocery, drug, mass merchants and discount stores. Our paperboard is sold primarily in the high-end segment of the packaging industry and is ultimately used by our customers to make packaging for products ranging from liquids to pharmaceuticals to consumer goods packaging, all of which demand high quality construction and print surfaces for graphics. We also manufacture wood products, including quality cedar used for its attractive appearance, and lumber products for construction.
Recent Developments
Two-for-One Stock Split and Stock Repurchase Program
On July 28, 2011, we announced that our Board of Directors had declared a two-for-one stock split of our outstanding shares of common stock, to be effected in the form of a stock dividend, payable on August 26, 2011 to shareholders of record on August 12, 2011.
Also on July 28, 2011, we announced that our Board of Directors had authorized the repurchase of up to $30 million of our common stock. Under our stock repurchase program, we may repurchase shares in the open market or as otherwise may be determined by management, subject to market conditions, business opportunities and other factors.
Acquisition of Cellu Tissue Holdings, Inc.
On December 27, 2010, we completed our acquisition of Cellu Tissue Holdings, Inc., or Cellu Tissue, which includes nine tissue manufacturing facilities located in the Southern, Midwestern and Eastern United States and one facility in Canada. We believe the Cellu Tissue facilities allow us to better serve existing private label grocery customers by creating a national manufacturing footprint and provide us with the capability to expand into new private label channels.
Status of Shelby, North Carolina Expansion
In 2010 we began construction of new tissue manufacturing and converting facilities in Shelby, North Carolina as part of our plans to expand our Consumer Products segment in the Eastern United States. This site will include a through-air-dried, or TAD, paper machine and is currently expected to have seven converting lines capable of producing ultra grades of private label tissue products. The first two converting production lines became operational during the second quarter of 2011.
We estimate the project will cost approximately $260 - $280 million, which is consistent with prior forecasts. As of June 30, 2011, we have incurred a total of $59.0 million in project costs, of which $28.7 million were incurred in the second quarter of 2011. We expect to incur approximately $93 million during the remainder of 2011 with substantially all remaining amounts to be spent in 2012.
Components and Trends in our Business
Net sales
Net sales consist of sales of consumer tissue, pulp and paperboard and wood products, net of discounts, returns and allowances and any sales taxes collected. Prices for our consumer tissue products primarily tend to be driven by the value of our products to our customers and are generally priced relative to the prices of branded tissue products. Demand and pricing for our pulp and paperboard products is largely determined by general global market conditions and the demand for high quality paperboard.

Wood fiber. Our most significant operating cost is wood fiber, including pulp, logs, wood chips and sawdust, needed to supply our manufacturing facilities. Our Consumer Products segment sources a portion of its pulp supply from our Pulp and Paperboard segment, with the remainder purchased from external suppliers. Cellu Tissue historically relied entirely on external suppliers for pulp. Therefore, as a result of our acquisition of Cellu Tissue, we now source a much higher percentage of our total pulp requirements from external suppliers. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, total wood fiber costs were 0.6 percentage points lower and 1.2 percentage points higher, respectively, as a percentage of cost of sales compared to the comparable periods from the prior year.
Chemicals. We consume a significant amount of chemicals in the production of pulp and paperboard. The chemicals we generally use include polyethylene, caustic, starch, sodium chlorate, latex and specialty paper process chemicals. Many of our chemicals are purchased under long-term contracts, which provide more stability than open-market purchases. However, many of these contracts have pricing mechanisms that adjust with published price indices. In addition, many of the chemicals used in our manufacturing processes, particularly in the pulp-making process, are petroleum-based and are impacted by petroleum prices.
Transportation. Petroleum prices are also a large part of our cost structure and, therefore, high fuel prices result in increased transportation costs related to delivery of raw materials to our manufacturing facilities, internal inventory transfers and delivery of our finished products to customers. Rising fuel prices particularly affect our margins for consumer products because we supply customers throughout the United States, and we transport unconverted parent rolls from our tissue mills to our tissue converting facilities. Lower costs as a percentage of cost of sales in the 2011 period compared to the 2010 period are related to a more favorable transportation cost structure resulting from the integration of Cellu Tissue and the proximity of Cellu Tissues historical customer base. However, general transportation costs have increased in 2011 due primarily to higher oil prices.
Energy. We use energy in the form of electricity, hog fuel, steam, natural gas and a minimal amount of coal. Energy prices have fluctuated widely over the past decade. We have taken steps to reduce our exposure to volatile energy prices through conservation, and cogeneration facilities that produce steam and electricity at our East Hartford, Connecticut, Lewiston, Idaho and Menominee, Michigan manufacturing sites help to lower our energy costs. In addition, to help mitigate our exposure to changes in natural gas prices, from time to time we have used firm-price contracts to supply a portion of our natural gas requirements. As of June 30, 2011, we had no firm-price contracts in place. Our energy costs in future periods will depend principally on our ability to produce a substantial portion of our electricity needs internally, on changes in market prices for natural gas and on our ability to reduce our energy usage.
21
Maintenance and repairs. We regularly incur significant costs to maintain our manufacturing equipment. We perform routine maintenance on our machines and periodically replace a variety of parts such as motors, pumps, pipes and electrical parts.
Major equipment maintenance and repair in our Pulp and Paperboard segment also requires maintenance shutdowns generally lasting up to one week per year at our Idaho facility and up to one week approximately every 18 months at our Arkansas facility, which increases costs and may reduce net sales in the quarters in which the major maintenance shutdowns occur. In March 2011, we had machine downtime of seven days at our Idaho pulp and paperboard mill due to scheduled major maintenance costing $11.4 million. Additional major maintenance and repair costs are expected to be approximately $7 million in the third quarter of 2011.
In addition to ongoing maintenance and repair costs, we make capital expenditures to increase our operating capacity and efficiency, to improve our safety and to comply with environmental laws. Excluding $28.7 million and $40.2 million, respectively, of cash expenditures for our North Carolina expansion during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we spent $12.0 million and $24.1 million, respectively, on capital expenditures during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $10.2 million and $15.5 million, respectively, in the same periods in 2010. Capital expenditures for 2011 are expected to be between approximately $175 million and $185 million, which range includes an estimated $133 million associated with our North Carolina expansion.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of compensation and associated costs for sales and administrative personnel, as well as commission expenses related to sales of our products. During the remainder of 2011, we expect our total selling, general and administrative costs to be higher compared to 2010 as we integrate Cellu Tissue into our administrative functions.
Interest expense
Interest expense is mostly comprised of interest on our $375.0 million aggregate principal amount 7.125% senior notes due 2018 issued in October 2010, which we refer to as the 2010 Notes, our $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 10.625% senior notes due 2016 issued in June 2009, which we refer to as the 2009 Notes, and any outstanding amounts under our revolving credit facility. As part of our acquisition of Cellu Tissue, we also assumed $15.6 million of industrial revenue bonds, or IRBs, associated with the facility in Ladysmith, Wisconsin. During the second quarter of 2011, we made the determination to redeem the outstanding balance of the IRBs and are initiating that process. Interest expense also includes amortization of deferred finance costs associated with our 2009 Notes, 2010 Notes, IRBs and credit facility. Gross interest expense in 2011 is expected to increase significantly compared to 2010 as a result of a full year of interest expense on the 2010 Notes and, to a smaller extent, the IRBs, as well as interest expense associated with a capital lease for the building housing our Shelby converting operations. Interest expense will be partially offset by the capitalization of interest during the construction phase of our North Carolina papermaking and converting facilities, which we estimate will be $21 million over the construction phase of the project, including $5 million in 2011.
Income taxes
Income taxes are based on reported earnings and tax rates in the jurisdictions in which our operations occur and offices are located, adjusted for available credits, changes in valuation allowances and differences between reported earnings and taxable income using current tax laws and rates. We generally expect our effective income tax rate, excluding discrete items, to remain fairly constant, although it could fluctuate due to changes to the Internal Revenue Code.
We are registered with the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, as both an alternative fuel mixer and a producer of cellulosic biofuel. During 2009 we received refundable tax credit payments in connection with our use of black liquor in an alternative fuel mixture to produce energy at our pulp mills. The amount of the refundable tax credit was equal to $0.50 per gallon of alternative fuel mixture used. The Alternative Fuel Mixture Tax Credit, or AFMTC, expired on December 31, 2009.
The Cellulosic Biofuel Producer Credit, or CBPC, enables us to claim $1.01 per gallon in regards to black liquor produced and used as a fuel by us at our pulp mills in 2009. During 2010, the IRS issued guidance clarifying the treatment of the CBPC and the AFMTC in regards to the production or use of black liquor at the same facility, in the same tax year. Under the guidance provided, both credits may be claimed in the same year as long as the credits
22
are not claimed for the same gallons of fuel. Furthermore, the IRS guidance clarified the ability to convert previously claimed gallons from the AFMTC to the CBPC.
We are eligible to convert gallons previously claimed under the AFMTC to CBPC. Due to CBPC carryovers from 2010, we are not anticipating converting additional gallons from AFMTC to CBPC during 2011. We have the ability to convert additional gallons to CBPC until the end of 2013.

Net sales We experienced significantly higher shipments in the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010, due primarily to tissue and other consumer products produced by the Cellu Tissue operations, as well as increased shipments of paperboard. We also realized higher net selling prices for our paperboard in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. These increases were partially offset by lower net selling prices for consumer products and pulp, as well as decreased shipments of pulp. These items are discussed further below under Business Segment Discussion.
Cost of sales Cost of sales was 87.6% of net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 and 83.3% of net sales for the same period in 2010. The $146.9 million increase in cost of sales was due primarily to higher overall costs related to the inclusion of Cellu Tissue operations for the 2011 period, as well as higher integration costs related to the Cellu Tissue acquisition. In addition, cost of sales were higher in the three months ended June 30, 2011, due to wage and benefit costs associated with our Shelby expansion and retroactive pay related to labor contracts, as well as higher costs for packaging supplies, transportation due to higher oil prices, and chemicals.
Selling, general and administrative expensesSelling, general and administrative expenses decreased 0.3 percentage points as a percentage of sales for the second quarter of 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. The $7.3 million increase over the prior year period was primarily attributable to higher integration and administration expenses associated with the Cellu Tissue acquisition.
Interest expense Interest expense increased $6.9 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. The increase was largely due to interest on the 2010 Notes issued in October 2010, partially offset by capitalized interest of $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2011 associated with the construction of our North Carolina converting and manufacturing facilities.
Other, net Other, net consists of foreign exchange currency losses of $0.2 million relating to the fluctuation in the Canadian currency during the three months ended June 30, 2011.
Income tax expense Our estimated annual effective tax rate for 2011 is 35.2%, compared with 34.8% for the comparable interim period in 2010. We recorded income tax expense of $8.6 million in the three months ended
23
June 30, 2011 compared to $12.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2010. The actual rate for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was 38.3%, compared to a rate of 38.0% for the same period of 2010. The higher actual rates were the result of the net impact of reporting discrete items, primarily relating to interest accrued on uncertain tax positions, in each reporting period totaling net expense of approximately $0.8 million and $1.0 million, respectively.
Business Segment Discussion
We are organized in two reportable operating segments: Consumer Products and Pulp and Paperboard. Prior to January 1, 2011, intersegment pulp transfers from our Pulp and Paperboard segment to our Consumer Products segment were recorded as net sales for the Pulp and Paperboard segment at prevailing market prices and eliminated, on a consolidated basis, to reconcile the segments total net sales to our consolidated net sales. Commencing January 1, 2011, rather than recording the intersegment transfer of pulp through net sales, the costs of pulp are transferred from the Pulp and Paperboard segment to the Consumer Products segment. As a result, there are no eliminations required to reconcile our total consolidated net sales to the segments total net sales. In order to facilitate comparability with the 2010 period, the operating results for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010 have been recast to reflect the revised cost transfer methodology.

Our Consumer Products segment reported a $123.7 million, or 85.1%, increase in net sales and an $18.8 million decrease in operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in net sales was primarily due to the addition of sales of consumer products from the Cellu Tissue operations, which contributed to a 132.0% increase in shipment volumes, partially offset by 20.3% lower net selling prices. Compared to our legacy Consumer Products operations, the Cellu Tissue facilities produce a broader range of products and some tissue grades that sell at lower price points than the tissue products produced by the legacy Clearwater Paper facilities. The decrease in net selling prices is a result of the addition of the Cellu Tissue products and the resulting change in the mix of tissue grades sold. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to higher wage and benefit costs associated with our Shelby expansion, integration costs related to the acquisition of Cellu Tissue, and retroactive pay related to labor contracts. In addition, costs were higher for packaging supplies, transportation due to higher oil prices, depreciation and amortization resulting from the Cellu Tissue acquisition, and repair and maintenance expenses associated with the Cellu Tissue facilities.

Net sales for the Pulp and Paperboard segment were $225.5 million, or 13.6% higher in the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in net sales over 2010 was largely due to an increase of 10.4% in paperboard prices and a 7.3% increase in paperboard shipments. These increases were partially offset by a 16.3% decrease in pulp shipments, an 8.4% decrease in pulp net selling prices and lower pricing for wood products.
Operating income increased $11.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. The increase was largely attributable to higher net selling prices for paperboard and lower wood fiber costs, all of which were partially offset by higher purchased pulp and chemical and transportation costs.

Net salesWe experienced significantly higher shipments in the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010, due primarily to tissue and other consumer products produced by the Cellu Tissue operations, as well as increased shipments of wood products. We also realized higher net selling prices for our paperboard in the first half of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. These increases were partially offset by lower net selling prices for consumer products and wood products. These items are discussed further below under Business Segment Discussion.
Cost of salesCost of sales was 88.3% of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2011, and 87.2% of net sales for the same period in 2010. The increase in the 2011 period compared to 2010 was primarily due to higher overall costs related to the inclusion of Cellu Tissue in the 2011 period, as well as higher integration costs associated with the Cellu Tissue acquisition. In addition, cost of sales were higher in the six months ended June 30, 2011, due to wage and benefit costs associated with our Shelby expansion, higher costs for packaging supplies, transportation due to higher oil prices, pulp and chemicals, and retroactive pay related to labor contracts.
Selling, general and administrative expenses Selling, general and administrative expenses were unchanged as a percentage of sales for the first half of 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. The $16.6 million increase in expense for the first half of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010 was primarily due to higher integration and administration expenses associated with the acquisition of Cellu Tissue.
Interest expenseInterest expense increased $13.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. The increase was largely due to interest on the 2010 Notes, partially offset by capitalized interest of $1.5 million associated with the construction of our North Carolina converting and manufacturing facilities.
Income tax expenseThe effective tax rates were 43.1% and 46.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily impacted by three main discrete items. The first was an increase in tax expense based on evaluating our state tax structure as Cellu Tissue is integrated with the Companys operations. The second discrete item was a decrease in tax expense associated with certain transaction costs relating to the Cellu Tissue acquisition that were determined to be deductible under the Internal Revenue Code. The final discrete item was an increase to tax expense related to interest accrued on uncertain tax positions for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The higher tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2010, was primarily due to the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act on March 23, 2010, which required us to reverse $4.4 million of deferred tax assets relating to the elimination of an income tax deduction for prescription drug benefits provided to retirees and reimbursed under the Medicare Part D retiree drug subsidy beginning in January 2013, for which there is no comparable impact in 2011.

Our Consumer Products segment reported a $255.2 million, or 90.1%, increase in net sales and a $30.9 million decrease in operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in net sales was primarily due to the addition of sales of consumer products from the Cellu Tissue operations, which contributed to a 139.3% increase in shipment volumes, partially offset by 20.6% lower net selling prices. The decrease in net selling prices is a result of the addition of the Cellu Tissue products and the resulting change in the mix of tissue grades sold. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to higher wage and benefit costs associated with our Shelby expansion, relocation and severance costs associated with the acquisition of Cellu Tissue, and retroactive pay related to labor contracts. In addition, costs were higher for packaging supplies, transportation due to higher oil prices, pulp, depreciation and amortization resulting from the Cellu Tissue acquisition, and repair and maintenance expenses associated with the Cellu Tissue facilities.

Net sales for the Pulp and Paperboard segment were $30.8 million, or 7.9%, higher in the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in net sales over 2010 was largely due to an increase of 11.1% in paperboard prices and increases in wood products shipments. These increases were partially offset by a 30.0% decrease in pulp shipments due primarily to increased internal usage, as well as a slight decrease in paperboard shipments.
Operating income increased $35.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. The increase was largely attributable to higher net selling prices for paperboard, lower wood fiber costs and lower maintenance costs, all of which were partially offset by higher purchased pulp and chemical costs.
EARNINGS BEFORE INTEREST, TAX, DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION (EBITDA)
We use earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, as a supplemental performance measure that is not required by, or presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings, operating income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities or a measure of our liquidity or profitability. In addition, our calculation of EBITDA may or may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
We present EBITDA because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. In addition, we use EBITDA: (i) as a factor in evaluating managements performance when determining incentive compensation, (ii) to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies and (iii) because our credit agreement and the indentures governing the 2009 Notes and 2010 Notes use measures similar to EBITDA to measure our compliance with certain covenants.

|
|
|
|
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased 72.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. The decrease between the periods was mostly attributable to the cash receipt of $101.3 million during the 2010 period from the Federal Government primarily related to the Alternative Fuel Mixture Tax Credit claimed in 2009 and a $28.7 million increase in accounts receivable in the first six months of 2011. These decreases were offset by higher earnings, after adjusting for noncash items, during the 2011 period.
The decreased use of cash for investing activities in the first six months of 2011, compared to the same period in 2010, was largely due to a decrease in our short-term investments of $34.1 million in the 2011 period, compared to a $132.0 million increase in short-term investments in the 2010 period. Capital expenditures were $64.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $15.5 million in the same period of 2010. The increased capital expenditures were primarily related to the cash outlays associated with our new converting and manufacturing facilities in North Carolina and capital improvement projects at Cellu Tissue facilities we acquired.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared with $7.3 million of cash used for financing activities during the same period in 2010. Cash provided by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2011 primarily consisted of the change in book overdrafts offset by cash used to pay employee minimum withholding requirements associated with shares issued in settlement of vested restricted stock units during the period.
Capital Resources
Due to the competitive and cyclical nature of the markets in which we operate, as well as an uncertain economic environment, there is uncertainty regarding the amount of cash flows we will generate during the next twelve months. However, we believe that our cash flows from operations as well as our cash on hand and available borrowing capacity under our credit facility will be adequate to fund debt service requirements and provide cash required to support our ongoing operations, capital expenditures, and working capital needs for the next twelve months.
We cannot be certain, however, that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowing will be available to us under the revolving credit facility in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs. If we make substantial capital expenditures or consummate an additional acquisition, our debt service requirements could increase. We may be required to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before maturity. We cannot be certain that we will be able to refinance any of our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms or at all. As of June 30, 2011, our short-term investments were not restricted and were largely invested in demand deposits.
27
Debt Arrangements
During the second quarter of 2011, we made the determination to redeem the outstanding balance of the IRBs. Excluding the IRBs, our expected debt service obligation, consisting of cash payments for interest related to our 2009 Notes and 2010 Notes, is estimated to be $21.3 million for the second half of 2011 and $42.7 million for 2012.
The terms of each of our 2010 Notes and 2009 Notes limit our ability and the ability of any restricted subsidiaries to borrow money; pay dividends; redeem or repurchase capital stock; make investments; sell assets; create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts to us from any restricted subsidiaries; enter into transactions with affiliates; enter into sale and lease back transactions; create liens; and consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of our assets.
Credit Arrangements
As of June 30, 2011, there were no borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility, and approximately $8.4 million of the credit facility was being used to support outstanding standby letters of credit. Loans under the credit facility bear interest at LIBOR plus between 2.25% and 2.75% for LIBOR loans, and a base rate effectively equal to the agent banks prime rate plus between 0.75% and 1.25% for other loans. The percentage margin on all loans is based on our fixed charge coverage ratio for the last fiscal quarter. As of June 30, 2011, we would have been permitted to draw $116.6 million under the credit facility and were eligible to borrow under the credit facility at LIBOR plus 2.75%.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
As of June 30, 2011, there have been no significant changes to the contractual obligations table as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
OFF- BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We currently are not a party to off-balance sheet arrangements that would require disclosure under this section.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires our management to select and apply accounting policies that best provide the framework to report the results of operations and financial position. The selection and application of those policies requires management to make difficult, subjective and complex judgments concerning reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. As a result, it is possible that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions.
As of June 30, 2011, there have been no significant changes with regard to the critical accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
See Note 2 Recently Adopted and New Accounting Standards to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding recently adopted and new accounting pronouncements.

ITEM 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
Interest Rate Risk
Revolving Credit Facility
Our exposure to market risks on financial instruments includes interest rate risk on our revolving credit facility. As of June 30, 2011, there were no borrowings outstanding under that facility. The interest rates applied to borrowings under the credit facility are adjusted often and therefore react quickly to any movement in the general trend of market interest rates. For example, a one percentage point increase or decrease in interest rates, based on assumed outstanding credit facility borrowings of $10.0 million, would have a $0.1 million annual effect on interest expense. We currently do not attempt to mitigate the effects of short-term interest rate fluctuations on our credit facility borrowings through the use of derivative financial instruments.
Industrial Revenue Bonds
As of June 30, 2011, there was $15.2 million outstanding under the IRBs. The interest rate applicable to the IRBs adjusts on a weekly basis. A one percentage point increase or decrease in interest rates, based on the current outstanding balance of $15.2 million, would have a $0.2 million annual effect on interest expense. We currently do not attempt to mitigate the effects of short-term interest rate fluctuations on the IRBs through the use of derivative financial instruments.
Commodity Risk
We are exposed to market risk for changes in natural gas commodity pricing, which we partially mitigate from time to time through the use of firm-price contracts for a portion of our natural gas requirements for our manufacturing facilities. As of June 30, 2011, we had no firm-price contracts for natural gas.
We are also subject to commodity price risk associated with pulp costs and take advantage of spot prices on pulp to minimize market risk arising from changes in pulp costs. We have agreements with pulp vendors to purchase pulp at market-based prices over the next year covering approximately 32% of our current budgeted pulp needs in 2011.
Foreign Currency Risk
We have minimal foreign currency exchange risk. Virtually all of our international sales, other than sales originating from our Canadian subsidiary, are denominated in U.S. dollars. Due to our Canadian operations, however, we could be adversely affected by unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
ITEM 4. | Controls and Procedures |
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of disclosure controls and procedures is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Subject to the limitations noted above, our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the second quarter of 2011. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of June 30, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to meet the objective for which they were designed and operated at the reasonable assurance level.
29
Changes in Internal Controls
On December 27, 2010, we completed the acquisition of Cellu Tissue. We are in the process of integrating Cellu Tissue. Our management is analyzing, evaluating and, where necessary, will implement changes in controls and procedures relating to the Cellu Tissue business as integration proceeds. As a result, this process may result in additions or changes to our internal control over financial reporting. Otherwise, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1. | Legal Proceedings |
We are party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, which we do not believe to be material to our business, financial condition or liquidity.
ITEM 1A. | Risk Factors |
There are no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. See Part I, Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, entitled Risk Factors.

Taxes | NOTE 5 Taxes Pursuant to authoritative guidance, we use our estimated annual effective tax rate to allocate expected annual income tax expense to interim periods. The rate is the ratio of estimated annual income tax expense to estimated pre-tax ordinary income, and excludes what we refer to as “discrete items,” which are significant, unusual or infrequent items reported separately net of their related tax effect. The estimated annual effective tax rate is applied to the current interim period’s ordinary income to determine the income tax expense allocated to the interim period. The income tax effects of discrete items are then determined separately and recognized in the interim period in which the income or expense items arise. Our estimated annual effective tax rate for 2011 is 35.2%, compared with 34.8% at June 30, 2010. We recorded income tax expense of $8.6 million and $14.8 million, respectively in the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $12.6 million and $18.4 million, respectively, in the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. The actual rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 were 38.3% and 43.1%, respectively, compared to rates of 38.0% and 46.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. As discussed below, the higher rates for the six month periods resulted from the net impact of reporting discrete items of approximately $2.7 million of net expense in the six months ended June 30, 2011 period, and $4.7 million of net expense in the six months ended June 30, 2010. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily impacted by three main discrete items. The first was an increase in tax expense based on evaluating our state tax structure as Cellu Tissue is integrated with the Company’s operations. The second discrete item was a decrease in tax expense associated with certain transaction costs relating to the Cellu Tissue acquisition that were determined to be deductible under the Internal Revenue Code. The final discrete item was an increase to tax expense relating to interest accrued on uncertain tax positions for the period. The higher tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was primarily due to the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act on March 23, 2010, which required us to reverse $4.4 million of deferred tax assets during the period ended March 31, 2010 relating to the elimination of an income tax deduction for prescription drug benefits provided to retirees and reimbursed under the Medicare Part D retiree drug subsidy beginning in January 2013, for which there is no comparable impact in 2011. We are eligible to convert gallons previously claimed under the Alternative Fuel Mixture Tax Credit, or AFMTC, to the Cellulosic Biofuel Producer Credit, or CBPC; however, due to CBPC carryovers from 2010, we do not anticipate converting additional gallons from AFMTC to CBPC during 2011. We have the ability to convert additional gallons to CBPC until the end of 2013. |

Equity-Based Compensation | NOTE 10 Equity-Based Compensation We recognize equity-based compensation expense for all equity-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including restricted stock units and performance shares, based on estimated fair values. Employee equity-based compensation expense was recognized as follows:
The following table summarizes the number of share-based awards granted under the Clearwater Paper Corporation 2008 Stock Incentive Plan during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and the average grant-date fair value of the awards:
DIRECTOR AWARDS We recorded director equity-based compensation income totaling $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, as a result of a lower stock price at the end of the period, and expense of $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. We recorded director equity-based compensation expense totaling $0.2 million and $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. |

Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation | NOTE 1 Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation GENERAL We are principally engaged in the manufacturing and selling of pulp-based products. We manufacture quality consumer tissue, away-from-home tissue, parent roll tissue, machine-glazed tissue, bleached paperboard, pulp and wood products at 15 manufacturing locations in the U.S. and Canada. Our private label tissue products, such as facial and bath tissue, paper towels and napkins, are used primarily at-home and are principally sold to major retailers and wholesale distributors, which include grocery, drug, mass merchants and discount stores. Our paperboard is sold primarily in the high-end segment of the packaging industry and is ultimately used by our customers to make packaging for products ranging from liquids to pharmaceuticals to consumer goods packaging, all of which demand high quality construction and print surfaces for graphics. We also manufacture wood products, including quality cedar used for its attractive appearance, and lumber products for construction. On December 27, 2010, we acquired Cellu Tissue Holdings, Inc., or Cellu Tissue, and consolidated the acquisition in our financial statements as of that date. The financial position and results of Cellu Tissue’s operations and cash flows are fully reflected in these condensed consolidated financial statements relating to periods subsequent to the acquisition date. FINANCIAL STATEMENT PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, and the related Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Cash Flows, and Comprehensive Income for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. We believe that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented have been included. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on March 11, 2011. We evaluated all subsequent events through the date these financial statements were filed with the SEC. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Significant areas requiring the use of estimates and measurement of uncertainty include the determination of net realizable value for deferred tax assets, environmental matters, goodwill and intangible assets, uncertain tax positions and pension and postretirement obligation assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. TRADE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had allowances of $1.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively, for doubtful accounts based on our estimates of the collectability of outstanding receivables. INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of current average cost or market, except that the last-in, first-out method is used to determine cost of logs, chips, sawdust and the majority of our lumber. An average cost method is used to determine the cost of all other inventories.
PROPERTIES Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, including any interest costs capitalized, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of buildings, equipment and other depreciable assets is determined using the straight-line method. Assets we acquire through business combinations have estimated lives that are typically shorter than the assets we construct or buy new. Accumulated depreciation totaled $1,323.7 million and $1,290.1 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, we capitalized $1.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of interest expense associated with the construction of our new tissue manufacturing and converting facilities in Shelby, North Carolina. EMPLOYEES Unions represent hourly employees at seven of our manufacturing sites. There are no hourly union labor contracts expiring in 2011. The union contracts that had expired as set forth on page 9 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 were all ratified during the second quarter of 2011. |

Debt | NOTE 7 Debt $375 MILLION SENIOR NOTES DUE 2018 On October 22, 2010, we sold $375.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes, which we refer to as the 2010 Notes. The 2010 Notes mature on November 1, 2018, have an interest rate of 7.125% and were issued at their face value. The issuance of these notes generated net proceeds of $367.5 million after deducting offering expenses. The net proceeds from the issuance of the 2010 Notes were used to finance in part our acquisition of Cellu Tissue, to refinance certain existing indebtedness of Cellu Tissue, and to pay fees and expenses incurred as part of the 2010 Note offering, acquisition of Cellu Tissue and related transactions. The 2010 Notes are guaranteed by Cellu Tissue and certain of our other existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries. The 2010 Notes are equal in right of payment with all other existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness and are senior in right of payment to any future subordinated indebtedness. The 2010 Notes are effectively subordinated to all of our existing and future secured indebtedness, including borrowings under our secured revolving credit facility, which is secured by certain of our accounts receivable, inventory and cash. The terms of the 2010 Notes limit our ability and the ability of any restricted subsidiaries to borrow money; pay dividends; redeem or repurchase capital stock; make investments; sell assets; create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts to us from any restricted subsidiaries; enter into transactions with affiliates; enter into sale and lease back transactions; create liens; and consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of our assets. In connection with the issuance of the 2010 Notes, we entered into a registration rights agreement with the initial purchaser of the 2010 Notes. Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, we filed a registration statement on April 29, 2011 with the Securities Exchange Commission, or SEC, pursuant to which we exchanged the 2010 Notes on June 28, 2011, for notes with substantially similar terms that are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. $150 MILLION SENIOR NOTES DUE 2016 In June 2009, we issued senior unsecured notes, which we refer to as the 2009 Notes, in aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million. The 2009 Notes are due on September 15, 2016 and have an interest rate of 10.625%. The 2009 Notes were issued at a price equal to 98.792% of their face value. The 2009 Notes are general unsecured obligations and are therefore not secured by our assets and are effectively subordinated to all of our existing and future secured indebtedness, including borrowings under our secured revolving credit facility, which is secured by certain of our accounts receivable, inventory and cash. The terms of the 2009 Notes limit our ability and the ability of any restricted subsidiaries to borrow money; pay dividends; redeem or repurchase capital stock; make investments; sell assets; create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts to us from any restricted subsidiaries; enter into transactions with affiliates; enter into sale and lease back transactions; create liens; and consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of our assets.
CITYFOREST INDUSTRIAL BONDS In connection with our acquisition of Cellu Tissue, we assumed Variable Rate Demand Solid Waste Disposal Facility Revenue Bonds, Series 1998, or IRBs, previously issued by a subsidiary of Cellu Tissue. Approximately $15.2 million in aggregate principal face amount of the IRBs was outstanding at June 30, 2011. The IRBs have scheduled semi-annual payments of principal, with the balance payable at maturity on March 1, 2028. The variable interest rate on the IRBs was 2.28% as of June 30, 2011. The IRBs are guaranteed by Cellu Tissue and contain various customary covenants and events of default. Cellu Tissue-CityForest LLC, or CityForest, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cellu Tissue, is required, under the terms of the Indenture of Trust governing the IRBs, or CityForest Indenture, to provide a letter of credit in favor of the trustee. CityForest is a party to a Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement dated as of December 27, 2010, with Associated Bank pursuant to which Associated Bank provided a letter of credit to the trustee. The trustee is permitted to draw upon the letter of credit to pay principal and interest due on the IRBs, and to provide liquidity to purchase IRBs put to CityForest by bondholders and not remarketed; and CityForest is obligated under the Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement to reimburse Associated Bank for any such draws. The expiration date of the letter of credit is February 15, 2012. Under the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement, CityForest is required, on or before September 30, 2011, to cause the letter of credit to be replaced with a substitute letter of credit from a third-party bank. CityForest’s failure to cause the letter of credit to be replaced by September 30, 2011 will constitute an event of default under the Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement. The Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement contains various customary covenants applicable to CityForest, including a requirement to comply on a quarterly basis with a maximum leverage covenant and a minimum fixed charge coverage covenant based on CityForest’s balance sheet and statement of operations. The maximum permitted leverage ratio is 2.5 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2011, the leverage ratio was 1.3 to 1.0. The minimum permitted fixed charge coverage ratio is 1.2 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2011, the fixed charge coverage ratio was 4.6 to 1.0. Clearwater Paper has guaranteed all of the obligations of CityForest under the Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement, pursuant to a Guaranty, dated as of December 27, 2010, executed in favor of Associated Bank. The Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement provides that in certain circumstances where Cellu Tissue incurs indebtedness, as defined, in excess of amounts currently permitted under the CityForest Indenture or refinances the indebtedness issued under the CityForest Indenture, CityForest may be required to cause the bonds to be redeemed or provide a new letter of credit from another lender. As required by the Second Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement, we had $1.1 million of restricted cash as of June 30, 2011. During the second quarter of 2011, we made the determination to redeem the outstanding balance of the IRBs and are initiating that process. As a result, the entire $15.2 million balance of the IRBs and the associated restricted cash are included in “Current portion of long-term debt” and “Restricted cash,” respectively, on our June 30, 2011 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY On November 26, 2008, we entered into a four-year $125 million revolving credit facility with certain financial institutions. The amount available to us under the revolving credit facility is based on the lesser of 85% of our eligible accounts receivable plus approximately 65% of our eligible inventory, or $125 million. As of June 30, 2011, there were no borrowings outstanding under the credit facility, but approximately $8.4 million of the credit facility was being used to support outstanding standby letters of credit. Loans under the credit facility bear interest at LIBOR plus between 2.25% and 2.75% for LIBOR loans, and a base rate effectively equal to the agent bank’s prime rate plus between 0.75% and 1.25% for other loans. The percentage margin on all loans is based on our fixed charge coverage ratio for the last fiscal quarter, which is recalculated on a quarterly basis. As of June 30, 2011, we would have been permitted to draw $116.6 million under the credit facility at LIBOR plus 2.75%.
A minimum fixed charge coverage ratio is the only financial covenant requirement under our credit facility and is triggered when an event of default exists or when availability falls below 20%, at which time the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio must be at least 1.0 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2011, the fixed charge coverage ratio for the last twelve months was 1.2 to 1.0. |

Segment Information | NOTE 12 Segment Information We are organized in two reportable operating segments: Consumer Products and Pulp and Paperboard. Prior to January 1, 2011, intersegment pulp transfers from our Pulp and Paperboard segment to our Consumer Products segment were recorded as net sales for the Pulp and Paperboard segment at prevailing market prices and eliminated, on a consolidated basis, to reconcile the segments’ total net sales to our consolidated net sales. Commencing January 1, 2011, rather than recording the intersegment transfer of pulp through net sales, the costs of pulp are transferred from the Pulp and Paperboard segment to the Consumer Products segment. As a result, there are no eliminations required to reconcile our total consolidated net sales to the segments’ total net sales. In order to facilitate comparability with the 2010 period, the operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 have been recast to reflect the revised cost transfer methodology.

Pension and Other Postretirement Employee Benefit Plans | NOTE 8 Pension and Other Postretirement Employee Benefit Plans The following table details the components of net periodic cost of our pension and other postretirement employee benefit, or OPEB, plans for the periods presented:
As discussed in the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our 2010 Form 10-K, our company-sponsored pension plans were underfunded by $55.4 million at December 31, 2010. The funded status as of December 31, 2010 improved by $40.5 million over the funded status as of December 31, 2009 due to cash contributions made to the pension plans during 2010, positive returns on pension asset investments and plan changes resulting in the salaried pension plan being closed to new entrants commencing December 15, 2010 and frozen as to the accrual of further benefits effective December 31, 2011. As a result of being underfunded, we are required to make contributions to our qualified pension plans. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we contributed $8.5 million to these pension plans. In July 2011, we contributed an additional $1.3 million. Our remaining required contributions for 2011 are expected to be approximately $2.7 million (plus interest). During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we made approximately $0.1 million of contributions to our non-qualified pension plan, and we estimate contributions will total approximately $0.3 million in 2011. We do not anticipate funding our OPEB plans in 2011 except to pay benefit costs as incurred during the year by plan participants. |

Recently Adopted and New Accounting Standards | NOTE 2 Recently Adopted and New Accounting Standards In June 2011, accounting guidance was issued related to Other Comprehensive Income, or OCI. The guidance eliminates the option to present the components of OCI as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity, and instead requires consecutive presentation of the statements of net income and OCI either in a continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with earlier adoption permitted, and adoption will not impact the accounting for OCI, only its presentation in our consolidated financial statements. In December 2010, accounting guidance was issued that modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that an impairment may exist such as if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. This guidance became effective for us on January 1, 2011 and has not had an impact on our consolidated financial statements. |

Fair Value Measurements | NOTE 11 Fair Value Measurements The estimated fair values of our financial instruments at the dates presented below are as follows:
Accounting guidance establishes a framework for measuring the fair value of financial instruments, providing a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, or “Level 1” measurements, and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs, or “Level 3” measurements. The asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used should seek to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. |
