4 7 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS SEGMENT INFORMATION Rayonier operates in two major business segments: Timber and Wood Products, and Specialty Pulp Products. The Timber and Wood Products segment includes two reportable business units: Forest Resources and Trading, and Wood Products. Chemical Cellulose, and Fluff and Specialty Paper Pulps are product lines within the Specialty Pulp Products segment. The amounts and relative contributions to sales and operating income attributable to each of Rayonier's reportable business units for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 were as follows (thousands of dollars):

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS SALES AND OPERATING INCOME Sales for the second quarter of 1999 were $258 million, $4 million higher than the second quarter of 1998, while sales for the six months ended June 30, 1999 of $484 million were $5 million higher than the prior year. Sales increases in the Timber and Wood Products segment, principally due to higher trading activity, were partially offset by reduced sales in the Specialty Pulp Products segment due to lower pulp volume and chemical cellulose prices. Operating income for the second quarter of 1999 of $34 million was $1 million below prior year, while operating income for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 of $63 million was $6 million below prior year. Forest Resources and Trading operating results for both periods decreased due to lower timber prices, land sales and Southeast U.S. timber volume. Specialty Pulp Products operating results for both periods declined due to decreased volume and chemical cellulose prices. However, improvements in Wood Products due to stronger lumber prices partially offset these decreases. 5 8 TIMBER AND WOOD PRODUCTS Timber and Wood Products sales for the second quarter were $152 million, $20 million higher than prior year resulting from higher trading activity and slightly improved Wood Products sales. Sales for the six month period were $277 million, $31 million higher than the prior year, reflecting higher trading activity partially offset by lower timber and wood products sales. Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 1999 of $32 million was $1 million above prior year. Year to date operating income of $59 million declined $1 million from last year as improved Wood Products results were offset by lower income from Forest Resources and Trading. FOREST RESOURCES AND TRADING Forest Resources and Trading sales for the three month period ended June 30, 1999 were $119 million, $19 million above prior year, resulting from growth of wood products trading activities and higher Northwest U.S. timber volume. These improvements were partially offset by lower Southeast U.S. timber prices and land sales. For the six month period ending June 30, 1999 sales were $219 million, $35 million above 1998 principally due to the higher wood products trading activity and improved log trading volume in Asian and U.S. domestic markets, partially offset by lower Southeast U.S. timber volume, timber prices and land sales. Operating income for the second quarter was $30 million, $5 million below 1998 resulting from lower Southeast U.S. timber prices and land sales partially offset by higher Northwest U.S. timber volume. Operating income for the first half of 1999 of $58 million was $11 million below prior year due to reduced timber prices in both the Northwest and Southeast U.S. and from lower land sales. Prices declined in the Northwest U.S. due to the impact of the Asian economic crisis on export products and in the Southeast U.S. due to reduced pulpwood demand resulting from pulp and paper mill closures and downtime in the region. Timber prices were unusually high in Southeast U.S. markets during the first half of 1998 due to unusually wet weather that led to restricted supply because of difficult logging conditions. WOOD PRODUCTS Wood Products sales for the second quarter ended June 30, 1999 were $33 million, relatively unchanged from the prior year, and for the six month period were $57 million, $4 million below 1998. Higher prices and volume for Southeast U.S. lumber, driven by continued strong U.S. housing demand, and improved markets for the Company's medium-density fiberboard (MDF) plant were offset by the absence of lumber sales from the Company's Plummer, ID mill which closed in July 1998 after the facility was damaged by fire. Operating income of $2 million and $1 million for the second quarter and first half of 1999, respectively, were $6 million and $10 million above prior year results. The improvement resulted from higher prices and lower operating costs for both lumber and MDF. SPECIALTY PULP PRODUCTS Sales of Specialty Pulp Products for the second quarter of 1999 were $106 million, $16 million below prior year due to lower volume and chemical cellulose prices. For the six month period, sales were $208 million, $27 million lower than 1998. The decline was primarily due to weaker demand for both fluff and chemical cellulose pulps and lower chemical cellulose pricing. Operating income of $6 million and $12 million for the second quarter and first half of 1999, respectively, were $2 million and $4 million below prior year. The decline resulted from lower fluff and chemical cellulose pulp volumes, lower chemical cellulose pricing and 45 days of market related shutdown costs for the Fernandina Beach, FL pulp mill, partially offset by lower wood and manufacturing costs. CORPORATE AND OTHER Corporate and other costs for the second quarter and six months to date of 1999 were above 1998 reflecting higher general and administrative expenses. OTHER INCOME / EXPENSE Interest expense of $15 million for the first six months of 1999 was $2 million below 1998 due to lower average interest rates and debt balances. Miscellaneous expense in the second quarter of 1999 included $0.5 million in costs associated with refinancing debt at lower interest rates. For the six months ended June 30, 1999 miscellaneous income was equal to last year, with the adverse impact of the debt refinancing expense offset by favorable first quarter interest income related to a contract settlement. 6 9 The effective tax rate of 33.3 percent for the first six months of 1999 compared to 30.7 percent in 1998. The 1998 rate is lower than the 1999 rate due to higher prior years' research and development tax credits, and tax benefits from foreign operations. NET INCOME Net income for the second quarter of 1999 was $17.1 million or $0.60 per Common Share, compared to $18.4 million, or $0.64 per Common Share in 1998. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was $32 million or $1.14 per share compared to $37 million or $1.27 per share last year. OTHER ITEMS The Company is optimistic about market conditions in the coming months based on a gradual improvement in Asian markets and a continued strong outlook for U.S. housing. Improvement is also expected to continue in MDF product and customer mix. Specialty Pulp earnings should strengthen due to higher fluff prices, although chemical cellulose market weakness remains. Despite normal second-half timber harvest reductions, the Company expects to largely sustain second quarter earnings levels in the third quarter. On July 29, 1999, the Company announced that it had signed a definitive agreement to purchase approximately 980,000 acres of timberland in Florida, Georgia and Alabama from Smurfit-Stone Container Corporation for $725 million. The transaction is expected to close early in the fourth quarter of 1999. The Company indicated that it will finance the acquisition with $225 million in cash and $500 million in pre-committed long-term notes to be issued by a wholly-owned Rayonier partnership that will hold all of the Company's U.S. timberlands. The Company expects to realize approximately $20 million per year in benefits by operating the timberlands similarly to its own management program by selling timber on an arms-length basis at auction and by eliminating overlapping marketing and management costs. At existing prices, the Company believes that the acquisition properties will contribute approximately $70 million annually to EBITDA (defined as earnings from continuing operations before significant non-recurring items, provision for dispositions, interest expense, income taxes and depreciation, depletion and amortization). Assuming an early fourth quarter closing, the after-tax earnings dilution in the fourth quarter is estimated at 18 cents per share. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Cash flow from operating activities of $101 million for the first six months of 1999 increased $39 million from 1998 as a result of decreased working capital requirements. EBITDA for the first six months of 1999 of $114 million decreased $4 million from 1998 results primarily due to lower operating income at both Forest Resources and Trading, and Specialty Pulp Products. Cash from operating activities helped to finance capital expenditures of $44 million, dividends of $17 million and the repurchase of Common Shares for $6 million and also reduce debt by $38 million. In 1999, second quarter ending debt was $452 million and the debt-to-capital-ratio was 41.0 percent compared to debt of $490 million and a debt-to-capital-ratio of 43.4 percent at December 31, 1998. The Company repurchased 124,300 of its shares during the first six months of 1999 at an average price of $45.05 per share for a total cost of $5.6 million. Over the same period of 1998, the Company repurchased 190,294 shares, at an average cost of $45.77 per share for a total cost of $8.7 million. The Company has unsecured credit facilities totaling $300 million, which were used as support for $125 million of outstanding commercial paper. At June 30, 1999, the Company had $175 million available under its revolving credit facilities. In addition, the Company has on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission shelf registration statements to offer $150 million of new public debt securities. The Company believes that internally generated funds, combined with available external financing, will enable Rayonier to fund capital expenditures, share repurchases, working capital and other liquidity needs for the foreseeable future. YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE Rayonier began its company-wide Year 2000 Project in 1996 and expects all phases to be completed by the end of the third quarter of 1999. The Project is designed to identify Year 2000 problems and take corrective action covering business and process control systems, networking communications, personal computer applications, embedded microprocessors and third party supplier and customer risks. The Company has engaged outside consultants to advise on, assist in and monitor compliance. The project team reports directly to the Company's senior executive officers and regularly provides program updates to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. As of June 30, 1999, the Company has identified potential Year 2000 problems with its internal systems (hardware, software, and process control devices) and completed most of the necessary corrective actions. Minor efforts remaining for full compliance will be completed in the third quarter of 1999. Outside advisors have assisted in planning and monitoring this effort. The evaluation 7 10 of external suppliers has been completed and contingency plans for critical suppliers that are not Year 2000 compliant are being developed. These contingency plans will also be completed before the end of the third quarter of 1999. The total amount expended on the Year 2000 Project through the first half of 1999 was approximately $3 million and the Company estimates that future costs could range up to $1 million. Many of the Company's systems were upgraded or replaced in the ordinary course of business during the last five years, and costs related to those upgrades and replacements are not included in the Year 2000 Project expenses. The Company believes that with the completion of its Year 2000 Project as scheduled, the risks will be minimized and the possibility of significant interruptions of operations reduced. However, if the Company and its third party suppliers and customers do not complete in a timely manner their assessment, remediation and testing for Year 2000 compliance, there can be no assurance that Year 2000 problems will not materially adversely affect the Company's results of operations or its relationships with its suppliers and customers. The Company has identified its hypercritical systems, the failure of which could constitute a worst case scenario, and is finalizing contingency plans to deal with any Year 2000 related failures. SAFE HARBOR Comments about market trends, anticipated earnings and future activities, including disclosures about the Company's Year 2000 project, are forward-looking and are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Changes in factors referred to in such disclosures, and changes in the following additional important factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements: failure of one or more conditions to closing the acquisition of the Smurfit-Stone timberlands to be satisfied; failure to realize operational efficiencies; fluctuations in demand for specialty chemical cellulose and fluff pulps, export and domestic logs, and wood products; the impact of such market factors on the Company's timber sales in the U.S. and New Zealand; production costs for wood products and for specialty pulps, particularly for raw materials such as wood and chemicals; adverse weather conditions in the Company's operating areas; the possibility of forest fires; governmental policies and regulations affecting the environment, import and export controls, and taxes; and interest rate and currency movements. 8 11 ITEM 3.
