Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

General

PotlatchDeltic Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to in this report as the company, us, we or our) is a leading timberland Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) with ownership of approximately 1.8 million acres of timberlands. Our timberland activities include the sale of timber, the purchase of timberlands and the operation of a rural timberland sales program. We are also engaged in the manufacturing and sale of wood products and operate a residential and commercial real estate development business. Our timberlands, real estate development projects and all of our wood products facilities are located within the continental United States.

Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements provide an overall view of our results and financial condition and reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Except as otherwise disclosed in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission pertaining to interim financial statements. Certain disclosures normally provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) have been omitted. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 18, 2021. Results of operations for interim periods should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and requires judgments affecting the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results may differ materially from our estimates.

Commitments and Contingencies

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

New Accounting Standards Being Evaluated

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients and exceptions to U.S. GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting impacts related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The guidance in ASU 2020-04, which companies can apply immediately, is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. Unlike other topics, the provisions of this update are only available until December 31, 2022, when the reference rate replacement activity was expected to be completed. A number of our debt instruments and associated interest rate derivative agreements have an interest rate tied to LIBOR. We are monitoring the developments regarding the alternative rates, will work with our lenders and counterparties to identify a suitable replacement rate and may amend certain debt and interest rate derivative agreements to accommodate those rates if the contract does not already specify a replacement rate. While the notional value of our agreements indexed to LIBOR is material, we are not yet able to reasonably estimate any expected impact to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

NOTE 2. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Our operations are organized into three reportable segments: Timberlands, Wood Products and Real Estate. Management activities in the Timberlands segment include planting and harvesting trees and building and maintaining roads. The Timberlands segment also generates revenues from non-timber resources such as hunting leases, recreation permits and leases, mineral rights contracts, oil and gas royalties and carbon sequestration. The Wood Products segment manufactures and markets lumber and plywood. Activities in the Real Estate segment include our rural timberland-holdings sales program, master planned community development and a country club.

Our Timberlands segment supplies our Wood Products segment with a portion of its wood fiber needs. These intersegment revenues are based on prevailing market prices and typically represent a sizeable portion of the Timberlands segment’s total revenues. Our other segments generally do not generate intersegment revenues. These intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

The reportable segments follow the same accounting policies used for our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, with the exception of the valuation of inventories, which are reported using the average cost method for purposes of reporting segment results.

The following table presents our revenues by major product:

Table of Contents

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

The following table summarizes information for each of the company’s reportable segments and includes a reconciliation of Total Adjusted EBITDDA to income (loss) before income taxes. Corporate information is included to reconcile segment data to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 3. EARNINGS PER SHARE

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

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2021		2020		2021		2020
Basic weighted-average shares outstanding		67,316		67,176		67,265		67,321
Incremental shares due to:
Performance shares		355		153		343		—
Restricted stock units		61		30		56		—
Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding		67,732		67,359		67,664		67,321

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

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, there were approximately 75,000 and 78,000 stock-based awards, respectively, that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as they were anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, there were approximately 39,000 and 490,000 stock-based awards, respectively, that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive. Anti-dilutive stock-based awards could be dilutive in future periods.

Share Repurchase Program

On August 30, 2018, our board of directors authorized management to repurchase up to $100.0 million of common stock with no time limit set for the repurchase (the Repurchase Program). Shares under the Repurchase Program may be repurchased in open market transactions, including pursuant to a trading plan adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Trading Plan). The timing, manner, price and amount of repurchases will be determined according to, and subject to, the terms of the Trading Plan, and, subject to the terms of the Trading Plan, the Repurchase Program may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason.

We did not repurchase any shares during the six months ended June 30, 2021. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we repurchased 88,933 and 489,850 shares of common stock (at a total consideration of $3.0 million and $15.4 million), respectively under the Repurchase Program, all of which were made in open-market transactions. At June 30, 2021, we had remaining authorization of $59.5 million for future stock repurchases under the Repurchase Program.

We record share repurchases upon trade date as opposed to the settlement date when cash is disbursed. We record a liability to account for repurchases that have not been cash settled. We retire shares upon repurchase. Any excess repurchase price over par is recorded in accumulated deficit.

On June 13, 2021, a fire occurred at our Ola, Arkansas sawmill. There were no injuries or environmental issues from the fire. The damage was principally limited to the large log primary breakdown area of the mill. The planer mill, kiln, and shipping department were not affected. We have adequate property damage and business interruption insurance, subject to an applicable deductible, under which we filed a claim with the insurance carriers. Based on our initial damage assessment, the property destroyed had a net book value of $2.1 million, which was written off and recognized as a loss during the second quarter of 2021. At June 30, 2021, we also recorded a receivable from the insurance carriers and a corresponding gain on insurance recoveries of $2.1 million for the book value of the destroyed property as we expect to recover these losses under our insurance policy. As we further assess the damage, it is possible that additional losses and associated insurance recoveries may be recorded. A determination regarding downtime and costs to repair the Ola sawmill will be made once the extent of damage and repair options are fully assessed.

Deferred revenue predominately relates to hunting and other access rights on our timberlands, payments received for lumber shipments where control of goods have not transferred, member related activities at an owned country club and certain post-close obligations for real estate sales. These contract liabilities are recognized over the term of the contracts, which is typically twelve months or less, except for initiation fees which are recognized over the average life of club membership.

NOTE 5. DEBT

At June 30, 2021, our total outstanding long-term debt included $693.5 million of term loans under our Second Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement (Amended Term Loan Agreement) with our primary lender, of which $40.0 million matures in December 2021. Certain borrowings under the Amended Term Loan Agreement are at variable rates of one or three-month LIBOR plus a spread between 1.85% and 2.10%. We have entered into interest rate swaps for these variable rate term loans to fix the interest rate. See Note: 6 Derivative Instruments for additional information.

At June 30, 2021, there were no borrowings under our $380.0 million revolving line of credit and approximately $1.0 million of our revolving line of credit was utilized for outstanding letters of credit. As provided in the revolving line of credit agreement, borrowings may be increased by up to an additional $420.0 million. The revolving line of credit agreement also includes a sublimit of $75.0 million for the issuance of standby letters of credit and a sublimit of $25.0 million for swing line loans. Usage under either or both subfacilities reduces availability under the revolving line of credit. We may utilize borrowings under the credit facility to, among other things, refinance existing indebtedness and provide funding for working capital requirements, capital projects, acquisitions and other general corporate expenditures.

We were in compliance with all debt and credit agreement covenants at June 30, 2021.

NOTE 6. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

From time to time, we enter into derivative financial instruments to manage certain cash flow and fair value risks.

Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in the cash flows of a specific asset or liability that is attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered cash flow hedges. As of June 30, 2021, we have interest rate swaps associated with $403.5 million of term loan debt. These swaps are cash flow hedges that convert variable rates ranging from three-month and one-month LIBOR plus 1.85% to 2.10%, to fixed rates ranging from 3.04% to 4.77%. Our cash flow hedges are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting cash flows attributable to the hedged interest rate risk through the term of the hedges. At June 30, 2021, the amount of net losses expected to be reclassified into earnings in the next 12 months is approximately $8.3 million. However, this expected amount to be reclassified into earnings is subject to volatility as the ultimate amount recognized in earnings is based on the LIBOR rate at the time of net swap cash payments.

We also hold $607.5 million of forward starting interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges. These forward starting interest rate swaps effectively hedge the variability in future benchmark interest payments attributable to changes in interest rates on $607.5 million of future debt refinances through January 2029 by converting the benchmark interest rates to fixed interest rates. In addition, the cash flow hedges for future debt refinances require settlement on the stated maturity date. At June 30, 2021, we have recorded derivative assets of $37.2 million associated with these forward starting interest rate swaps.

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

		Asset Derivatives					Liability Derivatives
(in thousands)	Location	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020		Location	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Derivatives designated in cash flow hedging relationships:

Interest rate contracts	Other assets, non-current		36,743		18,466	Other long-term obligations		30,743		45,100
		$	38,428	$	18,529		$	31,213	$	46,110

¹	Derivative instruments that mature within one year, as a whole, are classified as current.

NOTE 7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The following table presents the estimated fair values of our financial instruments:

	June 30, 2021						December 31, 2020
(in thousands)	Carrying Amount			Fair Value			Carrying Amount			Fair Value
Derivative assets related to interest rate swaps (Level 2)	$	38,428		$	38,428		$	18,529		$	18,529
Derivative liabilities related to interest rate swaps (Level 2)	$	(31,213	)	$	(31,213	)	$	(46,110	)	$	(46,110	)

Long-term debt, including current portion (Level 2):

Revenue bonds		(65,735	)		(70,034	)		(65,735	)		(67,885	)
Medium-term notes		(3,000	)		(3,100	)		(3,000	)		(3,545	)
Total long-term debt¹	$	(759,529	)	$	(783,997	)	$	(759,204	)	$	(788,061	)

Company owned life insurance asset (COLI) (Level 3)	$	3,667		$	3,667		$	3,328		$	3,328

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

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

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

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

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

NOTE 8. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION

At June 30, 2021, approximately 1.0 million shares are available for future use under our long-term incentive plans.

Share-based compensation activity during the six months ended June 30, 2021 included the following:

(Shares in thousands)	Granted		Vested		Forfeited
Performance Share Awards (PSAs)		88,128		—		1,450
Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)		46,997		23,599		1,484

Approximately 0.1 million shares of common stock were issued during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as a result of PSA and RSU vesting during 2020 and 2021.

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

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,

Restricted stock units		727		718		1,392		1,426
Deferred compensation stock equivalent units expense		41		19		82		38

Total tax benefit recognized for equity-based expense	$	107	$	93	$	196	$	176

Performance Share Awards

The weighted average grant date fair value of PSAs granted in 2021 was $69.72 per share. PSAs granted under the stock incentive plans have a three-year performance period and shares are issued at the end of the period if the performance measures are met. The number of shares actually issued, as a percentage of the amount subject to the PSA, could range from 0% to 200%. PSAs granted under the stock incentive plans do not have voting rights unless and until shares are issued upon settlement. If shares are issued at the end of the performance measurement period, the recipients will receive dividend equivalents in the form of additional shares at the time of payment equal to the dividends that would have been paid on the shares earned had the recipients owned the shares during the three-year period. Therefore, the shares are not considered participating securities.

The following table presents the key inputs used in the Monte Carlo simulation to calculate the fair value of the performance share awards granted in 2021:

Stock price as of valuation date	$	53.53
Risk-free rate		0.18	%
Expected volatility		45.56	%
Expected dividend yield¹		—
Expected term (years)		3.00

¹	Full dividend reinvestment assumed.

Restricted Stock Units

The weighted average fair value of all RSUs granted during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $55.67 per share. The fair value of RSUs granted equaled our common share price on the date of grant factoring in any required post-vesting holding periods. The terms of the awards state that the RSUs will vest in a given time period of one to three years. The vesting provisions for RSUs granted in 2021 were consistent with prior year grants.

NOTE 9. INCOME TAXES

As a REIT, we generally are not subject to federal and state corporate income taxes on income from investments in real estate, including our timberlands, that we distribute to our shareholders. We conduct certain activities through our PotlatchDeltic taxable REIT subsidiaries (TRS) which are subject to corporate level federal and state income taxes. These activities are principally comprised of our wood products manufacturing operations and certain real estate investments. Therefore, income tax expense or benefit is primarily due to pre-tax book income or loss of the TRS, as well as permanent book versus tax differences.

NOTE 10. LEASES

We lease certain equipment, office space and land. Lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, funding of pension and other postretirement employee benefit plans was $3.8 million and $2.8 million, respectively.

Pension Annuitization

In February 2020, we purchased a group annuity contract from an insurance company to transfer $101.1 million of our outstanding pension benefit obligation related to our qualified pension plans to the insurance company. This transaction was funded with plan assets. As a result of the transaction, the insurance company assumed responsibility for annuity administration and benefit payments to select retirees, with no change to their monthly retirement benefit payment amounts. The settlement triggered a remeasurement of plan assets and liabilities resulting in a reduction in the funded status of our qualified pension plans of approximately $26.2 million during the first quarter of 2020. In connection with this transaction we recorded a non-cash pretax settlement charge of $43.0 million during the first quarter of 2020 in non-operating expense, net, as a result of accelerating the recognition of actuarial losses included in accumulated other comprehensive loss that would have been recognized in future periods.

Our Company

We are a leading timberland REIT with ownership of approximately 1.8 million acres of timberland. We also own six sawmills and an industrial grade plywood mill, a residential and commercial real estate development business and a rural timberland sales program.

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

The operating results of our Timberlands, Wood Products and Real Estate business segments have been and will continue to be affected by the cyclical nature of the forest products industry. Log and pulpwood sales volumes in our Timberlands segment are typically lower in the first half of each year as winter rains in the Southern region and spring thaw in the Northern region limit timber harvesting operations due to softened roadbeds and wet logging conditions that restrict access to logging sites. The third quarter is typically our Timberlands segment's strongest production quarter. Demand for our manufactured wood products typically decreases in the winter months when construction activity is slower, while demand typically increases during the spring, summer and fall when construction activity is generally higher. Rural real estate dispositions and acquisitions can be adversely affected when access to any properties to be sold or considered for acquisition are limited due to adverse weather conditions. Development real estate sales at Chenal Valley occur throughout the year, though historically most sales take place in the second half of the year as builders prepare for the following spring and summer traditional home building and buying season.

Additionally, our business segments have been and will continue to be influenced by a variety of other factors, including tariffs, quotas and trade agreements, changes in timber prices and in harvest levels from our timberlands, competition, timberland valuations, demand for our non-strategic timberland for higher and better use purposes, lumber prices, weather conditions, disruptions or inefficiencies in our supply chain including the availability of transportation, the efficiency and level of capacity utilization of our Wood Products manufacturing operations, changes in our principal expenses such as log costs, asset dispositions or acquisitions, impact of pandemics (such as COVID-19 and its variants), fires (such as the Ola, Arkansas sawmill fire and fires on our timberlands), other natural disasters and other factors.

Non-GAAP Measures

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

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

Our definition of EBITDDA and Adjusted EBITDDA may be different from similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We define EBITDDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, basis of real estate sold, depreciation, depletion and amortization. Adjusted EBITDDA further excludes certain specific items that are considered to hinder comparison of the performance of our businesses either year-on-year or with other businesses. See Note 2: Segment Information in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information related to the use of segment Adjusted EBITDDA.

Business and Economic Trends Affecting Our Operations

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

Housing fundamentals remain stronger than any point since the Great Financial Crisis driven by demand for new single-family homes, historically low mortgage rates, a shift from urban to suburban living, millennials entering their prime home-buying years, scarce re-sale housing inventory and an aging existing housing stock supporting repair and remodel demand. In July 2021, the U.S. Census Bureau reported housing starts for June 2021 in excess of 1.6 million in the U.S. on a seasonally adjusted annual basis, including single-family new home construction starts of nearly 1.2 million, an increase of 28% from June of 2020. We expect housing fundamentals to remain strong in the second half of 2021.

During the second quarter of 2021 we experienced a fire at our Ola, Arkansas sawmill. The damage was principally limited to the large log primary breakdown machine center. The planer mill, kiln, and shipping department were not affected. We have adequate property damage and business interruption insurance, subject to an applicable deductible, under which we filed a claim with the insurance carriers. A determination regarding downtime and costs to repair the Ola sawmill will be made once the extent of damage and repair options are fully assessed.

In our Wood Products segment, lumber prices continued on a historic pace and established new records before beginning to retreat in the latter part of the second quarter. We expect lumber prices to remain relatively strong in the second half of 2021. We shipped 260 million board feet of lumber during the second quarter of 2021. Lumber shipments in the second quarter were impacted by lower home center demand, transportation challenges at several of our sawmills and the Ola sawmill fire. We expect to ship approximately 1.0 to 1.1 billion board feet of lumber in 2021.

In our Timberlands segment, Northern sawlog prices benefitted from Idaho sawlogs prices being indexed to higher lumber prices and strong cedar sawlog prices, while Southern pine sawlog prices remained stable. Our harvest volume of 1.2 million tons during the second quarter of 2021 was lower than the second quarter of 2020 primarily due to wet weather in the Southern region. We reduced our harvest plan as a result of downtime at our Ola sawmill to 5.6 to 5.7 million tons during 2021.

Our Real Estate segment results were driven by the strength in our rural and development sales demand during the first half of 2021, which we expect to continue during the second half of the year. We expect to sell approximately 20,000 acres of rural land and 150 residential development lots during 2021.

Second Quarter 2021 Compared with Second Quarter 2020

Revenues

Revenues were $447.5 million, an increase of $266.0 million compared with the second quarter of 2020 primarily due to historically high lumber and Idaho sawlog prices. Additionally, the second quarter of 2020 included the impact of a temporary curtailment and reduced operating posture at our industrial plywood facility in response to COVID-19 market conditions.

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold increased $27.9 million compared with the second quarter of 2020 primarily due to higher log and manufacturing costs in our Wood Products segment. Additionally, the second quarter of 2020 included the impact of the temporary curtailment and reduced operating posture at our industrial plywood facility.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $2.7 million compared with the second quarter of 2020 primarily as a result of higher incentive compensation related to strong company performance, partially offset by mark-to-market adjustments for deferred incentive compensation plans.

Income taxes

Income taxes are primarily due to income from our PotlatchDeltic taxable REIT subsidiaries (TRS). For the second quarter of 2021, we recorded income tax expense of $50.8 million as our TRS’s income before tax was $195.4 million driven primarily by historically high lumber prices. For the second quarter of 2020, we recorded an income tax expense of approximately $0.5 million primarily as a result of the TRS’s income before tax of $1.5 million.

Total Adjusted EBITDDA

Total Adjusted EBITDDA for the second quarter of 2021 increased $239.6 million compared to the second quarter of 2020. The increase in Total Adjusted EBITDDA was driven primarily by historically high lumber and Idaho sawlog prices. Refer to the Business Segment Results below for further discussions on activities for each of our segments. See Liquidity and Performance Measures for a reconciliation of Total Adjusted EBITDDA to net income (loss), the closest comparable GAAP measure, for each of the periods presented.

Year to Date 2021 Compared with Year to Date 2020

Revenues

Revenues were $801.7 million, an increase of $411.3 million compared with the first half of 2020 primarily due to historically high lumber and Idaho sawlog prices. Additionally, the first half of 2020 includes the impact of the temporary curtailment and reduced operating posture at our industrial plywood facility.

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold increased $25.2 million compared with the first half of 2020 primarily due to higher log and manufacturing costs in our Wood Products segment. Additionally, the first half of 2020 includes the impact of the temporary curtailment and reduced operating posture at our industrial plywood facility.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $5.3 million compared with the first half of 2020 primarily as a result of higher incentive compensation related to strong company performance and mark-to-market adjustments for deferred incentive compensation plans.

Pension settlement charge

In February 2020, we purchased a group annuity contract from an insurance company to transfer $101.1 million of our outstanding pension benefit obligation related to our qualified pension plans. This transaction was funded with plan assets. In connection with this transaction, we recorded a non-cash pretax settlement charge of $43.0 million in the first quarter of 2020.

Income taxes

Income taxes are primarily due to income from our TRS. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded income tax expense of $80.9 million as our TRS’s income before tax was $311.2 million driven primarily by historically high lumber prices. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded an income tax benefit of $10.4 million primarily as a result of the TRS’s loss before tax of $41.3 million, which included the $43.0 million pension settlement charge.

Total Adjusted EBITDDA

Total Adjusted EBITDDA for the first half of 2021 increased $387.0 million compared to the first half of 2020. The increase in Total Adjusted EBITDDA was driven primarily by historically high lumber and Idaho sawlog prices. Refer to the Business Segment Results below for further discussions on activities for each of our segments.

Second Quarter 2021 Compared with Second Quarter 2020

Timberlands Adjusted EBITDDA for the second quarter of 2021 increased $51.6 million compared with the same period in 2020, primarily as a result of the following:

•

Sales Price and Mix: Sawlog prices in the Northern region increased 142.6%, to $245 per ton primarily from the effect of higher realizations on indexed sawlogs and an increase in cedar log prices in Idaho. Southern sawlog prices remained consistent with the second quarter of 2020.

•

Harvest Volume: We harvested 0.9 million tons in the Southern region during the second quarter of 2021, which was 9.1% lower than the second quarter of 2020 primarily due to wet weather impacting harvesting conditions. This decrease was partly offset by higher harvest volumes in the Northern region during the second quarter of 2021 as a result of favorable harvest conditions and strong sawlog demand.

•

Logging and Hauling Cost per Unit: Log and hauling costs were higher primarily because of increased diesel costs and longer haul distances.

Year to Date 2021 Compared with Year to Date 2020

Timberlands Adjusted EBITDDA for the first half of 2021 increased $84.5 million compared with the same period in 2020, primarily as a result of the following:

•

Sales Price and Mix: Sawlog prices in the Northern region increased 113.3%, to $209 per ton primarily from the effect of higher lumber price realizations on indexed sawlogs and an increase in cedar log prices in Idaho. Southern sawlog prices remained consistent with the first half of 2020.

•

Harvest Volume: We harvested 1.8 million tons in the Southern region during the first half of 2021, which was 10.2% lower than the first half of 2020 primarily due to adverse weather conditions impacting harvest volumes. Sawlog harvest volume in the Northern region increased during the first half of 2021 as a result of favorable harvest conditions and strong sawlog demand.

•

Logging and Hauling Cost per Unit: Log and hauling costs were higher primarily as a result of increased diesel costs and a higher mix of more expensive Idaho logging.

Second Quarter 2021 Compared with Second Quarter 2020

Real Estate Adjusted EBITDDA for the second quarter of 2021 was $11.8 million, an increase of $2.5 million compared with the second quarter of 2020 as a result of the following:

•

Rural Sales: The increase in rural real estate sales reflected an attractive price on a conservation land sale outside Little Rock, Arkansas during the second quarter of 2021, which more than offset the sale of fewer acres. Rural real estate sales can vary quarter-to-quarter with the average price per acre fluctuating based on both the geographic area of the real estate and product mix.

•

Development Sales: During the second quarter of 2021, we sold 19 residential lots at an average lot price of $90,874 compared to 17 lots at an average lot price of $97,059 during the second quarter of 2020. The average price per lot or acre fluctuates based on a variety of factors including location within the developments.

Year to Date 2021 Compared with Year to Date 2020

Real Estate Adjusted EBITDDA for the first half of 2021 was $28.4 million, an increase of $11.8 million compared with the first half of 2020 as a result of the following:

•

Rural Sales: The increase in rural real estate sales was primarily due to a mix of sales from different states, as well as an attractive price on a conservation land sale outside Little Rock, Arkansas during the first half of 2021.

•

Development Sales: During the first half of 2021, we sold 70 residential lots at an average lot price of $96,524 compared to 40 lots at an average lot price of $98,550 in the first half of 2020. In addition, we sold 11 acres of commercial land in Chenal Valley for $277,425 per acre in the first half of 2021 compared to no commercial acres sold in the first half of 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Changes in significant sources and uses of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are presented by categories as follows:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2021			2020			Change
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	341,340		$	87,943		$	253,397
Net cash used in investing activities	$	(25,454	)	$	(19,688	)	$	(5,766	)
Net cash used in financing activities	$	(56,196	)	$	(69,575	)	$	13,379

Net Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $253.4 million compared to the first half of 2020. Changes in cash provided by operating activities was impacted by the following:

•

Cash received from customers increased $391.6 million primarily due to historically high lumber and Idaho sawlog prices and increased rural and development real estate sales. In addition, the first half of 2020 was impacted by the temporary curtailment of our industrial plywood mill during the second quarter of 2020.

•

Cash payments increased $49.1 million due to vendor payments on higher log and manufacturing costs in our Wood Products segment and employee incentive compensation payouts related to strong 2020 company performance. Additionally, the first half of 2020 experienced reduced vendor payments stemming from the curtailment of our industrial plywood mill during the second quarter of 2020.

•

Net tax payments increased $89.1 million as a result of higher taxable income generated from our TRS operations.

Net Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Changes in cash flows from investing activities were primarily a result of the following:

•

We spent $23.9 million on capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment, timberlands reforestation and road construction projects during the first half of 2021 compared to $18.1 million during the first half of 2020.

•

During the first half of 2021 we spent $2.2 million on timberland acquisitions compared to $4.7 million during the first half of 2020.

Net Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Changes in cash flows from financing activities were primarily a result of the following:

•

We paid dividends of $55.0 million in the first half of 2021 compared to $53.7 million in the first half of 2020.

•

We did not repurchase any of our common stock during the first half of 2021 compared to 489,850 shares repurchased totaling $15.4 million during the first half of 2020.

Future Sources and Uses of Cash

We invest cash in maintenance and discretionary capital expenditures at our Wood Products facilities. We also invest cash in the reforestation of timberlands and construction of roads in our Timberlands operations and to develop land in our Real Estate development operations. We evaluate discretionary capital improvements based on an expected level of return on investment. We currently expect to spend a total of approximately $60.0 million for capital expenditures during 2021.

Planned capital expenditures noted above exclude any capital expenditures associated with the reconstruction of our fire damaged Ola sawmill, which we expect will largely be covered by insurance. A determination regarding downtime and costs to repair the Ola sawmill will be made once the extent of damage and repair options are fully assessed. We have adequate property damage and business interruption insurance, subject to an applicable deductible, under which we have filed claims with our insurance carriers. The timing of expenditures incurred for repairs and economic losses is expected to vary from when we receive proceeds from our insurance carriers.

Returning cash to shareholders through a secure regular dividend and opportunistic share repurchases is an important and durable part of our disciplined capital allocation strategy. Our board of directors, in its sole discretion, determines the actual amount of dividends to be made to stockholders based on consideration of a number of factors, including, but not limited to, our results of operations, cash flow and capital requirements, economic conditions in our industry and in the markets for our products, borrowing capacity, debt covenant restrictions, future acquisitions and dispositions, and REIT requirements. Generally, a REIT must distribute its taxable income each year and there is a 20% limit on the value of our TRS, including cash, that can be retained. Our strong financial performance, driven by record lumber and indexed sawlog prices, has generated large cash balances in both our REIT and TRS. As a result, we expect to distribute a significant special dividend to stockholders in the fourth quarter of 2021 to maintain compliance with REIT requirements. We are unable to provide an estimate at this time.

On August 30, 2018, the board of directors authorized the repurchase of up to $100.0 million of common stock with no time limit set for the repurchase (the Repurchase Program). At June 30, 2021, we had remaining authorization of $59.5 million for future stock repurchase under the Repurchase Program. The timing, manner, price and amount of repurchases will be determined according to, and subject to, the terms of the Trading Plan, and, subject to the terms of the Trading Plan, the Repurchase Program may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason.

Liquidity and Performance Measures

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

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

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

Table of Contents

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

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

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2021		2020		2021		2020
Net income (loss)	$	187,905	$	2,638	$	319,011	$	(14,194	)

Depreciation, depletion and amortization		17,029		17,765		35,025		36,403

Total Adjusted EBITDDA	$	274,984	$	35,373	$	469,970	$	82,944

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

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

	Six Months Ended June 30,						Twelve Months Ended June 30,

Net cash used in investing activities²	$	(25,454	)	$	(19,688	)	$	(47,959	)	$	(50,427	)
Net cash used in financing activities	$	(56,196	)	$	(69,575	)	$	(111,605	)	$	(124,099	)

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 includes cash paid for real estate development expenditures of $4.0 million and $2.5 million, respectively. Net cash provided by operating activities for the twelve months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 includes cash paid for real estate development expenditures of $8.2 million and $5.3 million, respectively.

²	Net cash used in investing activities includes payment for capital expenditures and acquisition of timber and timberlands, which is also included in our reconciliation of CAD.

Sources of Financing

Long-Term Debt and Credit Agreements

At June 30, 2021, our total outstanding net long-term debt was $757.9 million, of which $40.0 million matures in December 2021. We expect to refinance the $40.0 million term loan debt at maturity which is covered by a forward starting interest rate swap that hedges the variability in future benchmark interest payments attributable to changes in interest rates. All interest rates on our outstanding long-term debt are fixed rates under fixed rate loans or variable rate loans with an associated interest rate swap that fix the variable benchmark interest rate component.

A number of our debt instruments and associated interest rate derivative agreements have an interest rate tied to LIBOR. On March 5, 2021, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced that the USD LIBOR will no longer be published after June 30, 2023. The U.S. Federal Reserve, in conjunction with the Alternative Reference Rate Committee, a steering committee comprised of large U.S. financial institutions, is recommending

Table of Contents

replacing LIBOR with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR). While we expect LIBOR to be available in substantially its current form until at least the end of June 30, 2023, it is possible that LIBOR will become unavailable prior to that point. We are monitoring the developments regarding the alternative rates, will work with our lenders and counterparties to identify a suitable replacement rate and may amend certain debt and interest rate derivative agreements to accommodate those rates if the contract does not already specify a replacement rate. However, at this time, we are not able to predict whether SOFR will become a widely accepted benchmark in place of LIBOR, or what the impact of such possible transition to SOFR may be on our financial condition.

Financial Covenants

The Amended Term Loan Agreement and Amended Credit Agreement (collectively referred to as the Agreements) contain certain covenants that limit our ability and that of our subsidiaries to create liens, merge or consolidate, dispose of assets, incur indebtedness and guarantees, repurchase or redeem capital stock and indebtedness, make certain investments or acquisitions, enter into certain transactions with affiliates or change the nature of our business. The Agreements also contain financial maintenance covenants including the maintenance of a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum leverage ratio. We are permitted to pay dividends to our stockholders under the terms of the Agreements so long as we expect to remain in compliance with the financial maintenance covenants.

At June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all covenants under the Agreements. The following table sets forth the financial covenants for the Agreements and our status with respect to these covenants at June 30, 2021:

	Covenant Requirement		Actual at June 30, 2021
Interest coverage ratio	≥	3.00 to 1.00	26.13
Leverage ratio	≤	40%	19%

See Note 5: Debt in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our debt and credit agreements.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations during the six months ended June 30, 2021 outside the ordinary course of business.

Credit Ratings

Two major debt rating agencies routinely evaluate our debt and our cost of borrowing can increase or decrease depending on our credit rating. Both Moody’s and S&P rate our debt investment grade.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

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

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no significant changes during 2021 to our critical accounting policies presented in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our market risk exposure on financial instruments includes interest rate risk on our bank credit facility, term loans and interest rate swap agreements and forward starting interest rate swap agreements. We are exposed to interest rate volatility on existing variable rate debt instruments and future incurrences of fixed or variable rate debt, which exposure primarily relates to movements in various interest rates. We use interest rate swaps and forward starting swaps to hedge our exposure to the impact of interest rate changes on existing debt and future debt issuances, respectively. All market risk sensitive instruments were entered into for purposes other than trading purposes.

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, see Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Our exposures to market risk have not changed materially since December 31, 2020.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation (pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)), under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2021. These disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that this information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2021.

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

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No changes occurred in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
