Year-to-date cash provided by operating activities was $181.6 million versus $128.3 million in the prior year period. Year-to-date cash available for distribution (CAD)1 of $163.5 million increased $66.2 million versus the prior year period primarily due to higher Adjusted EBITDA1 ($60.6 million), lower cash interest paid ($1.6 million), lower cash taxes paid ($0.2 million) and lower capital expenditures ($3.9 million).

“We are pleased to report strong results for the second quarter,” said David Nunes, President and CEO. “Southern Timber volumes increased 10% relative to the prior year quarter, as we fully integrated our prior year acquisitions in coastal Florida, Georgia and South Carolina. Weighted-average stumpage prices in Southern Timber were relatively flat compared to the prior year quarter. Pacific Northwest Timber results improved significantly driven by 36% higher harvest volumes and a 26% increase in both delivered sawtimber and pulpwood prices relative to the prior year quarter, reflecting strong domestic and export market conditions. Excluding the prior year quarter timberland sales, New Zealand Timber results also improved significantly, driven by 20% higher harvest volumes and a 9% increase in both export and domestic sawtimber prices. Real Estate results were well above the prior year quarter due to a large Non-Strategic / Timberland sale in Louisiana and continued strong demand for Rural HBU properties.”

Southern Timber

Second quarter sales of $48.0 million (which included pipeline easements of $5.8 million) increased $12.5 million, or 35%, versus the prior year period. Harvest volumes increased 10% to 1.49 million tons versus 1.36 million tons in the prior year period, primarily due to incremental volume from acquisitions coupled with stronger overall demand. Average pine sawtimber stumpage prices increased 2% to $26.23 per ton versus $25.66 per ton in the prior year period driven by stronger demand, particularly in coastal markets. Average pine pulpwood stumpage prices increased 3% to $16.05 per ton versus $15.62 per ton in the prior year period, as the prior year period was negatively impacted by salvage timber volume from the West Mims fire. Overall, weighted-average stumpage prices (including hardwood) were relatively flat at $19.27 per ton versus $19.25 per ton in the prior year period, as modest price increases were offset by changes in mix. Operating income of $15.7 million increased $6.0 million versus the prior year period due to higher volumes ($1.4 million), higher non-timber income ($6.2 million), lower costs ($0.2 million) and lower franchise taxes ($0.1 million), which were partially offset by higher depletion rates ($1.9 million).

Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA1 of $30.6 million was $9.0 million above the prior year period.

Pacific Northwest Timber

Second quarter sales of $32.2 million increased $11.7 million, or 58%, versus the prior year period. Harvest volumes increased 36% to 374,000 tons versus 275,000 tons in the prior year period, as we pulled forward some volume to take advantage of favorable market conditions. Average delivered sawtimber prices increased 26% to $103.38 per ton versus $81.93 per ton in the prior year period, while average delivered pulpwood prices increased 26% to $49.76 per ton versus $39.38 per ton in the prior year period. The increase in average sawtimber and pulpwood prices was due to strong demand from both domestic and export markets. Operating income of $5.6 million increased $7.1 million relative to an operating loss of $1.5 million in the prior year period due to higher prices ($6.7 million), volume/mix changes ($0.3 million) and lower depletion rates ($0.2 million), which were partially offset by higher costs ($0.1 million).

Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA1 of $15.0 million was $9.5 million above the prior year period.

New Zealand Timber

Second quarter sales of $69.7 million decreased $7.7 million, or 10%, versus the prior year period as the prior year period included $24.3 million of timberland sales. Excluding these timberland sales, sales for the quarter increased $16.6 million, or 31%, versus the prior year period. Harvest volumes increased 20% to 738,000 tons versus 616,000 tons in the prior year period, driven primarily by the timing of export shipments and incremental volume from prior year acquisitions. Average delivered prices for export sawtimber increased 9% to $120.80 per ton versus $111.05 per ton in the prior year period, while average delivered prices for domestic sawtimber increased 9% to $86.21 per ton versus $79.04 per ton in the prior year period. The increase in export sawtimber prices was primarily due to stronger demand from China. The increase in domestic sawtimber prices (in U.S. dollar terms) was driven by increased demand tension between export markets and local sawmills as well as a modest rise in the NZ$/US$ exchange rate (US$0.71 per NZ$1.00 versus US$0.70 per NZ$1.00). Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, domestic sawtimber prices increased 7% from the prior year period. Operating income of $17.8 million decreased $9.0 million versus the prior year period due to lower timberland sales ($14.8 million), higher road maintenance costs ($0.9 million) and higher depletion rates ($0.1 million), which were partially offset by higher volumes ($3.4 million), higher prices ($1.6 million), favorable foreign exchange impacts ($1.3 million), higher carbon sales ($0.3 million) and other non-timber income ($0.2 million).

Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA1 of $25.8 million was $16.5 million below the prior year period.

Real Estate

Second quarter sales of $49.9 million increased $24.3 million versus the prior year period, while operating income of $18.9 million increased $2.8 million versus the prior year period due to a higher number of acres sold (15,804 acres sold versus 7,592 acres sold in the prior year period), partially offset by a decrease in weighted-average prices ($3,153 per acre versus $3,411 per acre in the prior year period).

Improved Development closings of $1.3 million in the Wildlight development project included 2.0 acres of commercial property for $0.7 million ($351,000 per acre) and 12 residential lots for $0.6 million ($52,000 per lot or $287,000 per acre).

Rural sales of $4.8 million were comprised of 1,071 acres at an average price of $4,509 per acre. This compares to prior year second quarter sales of $5.5 million, comprised of 1,728 acres at an average price of $3,178 per acre.

Non-strategic / Timberland sales of $43.7 million were comprised of 14,729 acres at an average price of $2,966 per acre, including a sale of 14,447 acres in Louisiana for $2,988 per acre. This compares to prior year second quarter sales of $17.5 million, comprised of 5,733 acres primarily in Florida at an average price of $3,050 per acre.

Second quarter Adjusted EBITDA1 of $45.9 million was $24.4 million above the prior year period.

Trading

Second quarter sales of $46.2 million increased $4.2 million versus the prior year period due to higher volumes and prices. Sales volumes increased 2% to 395,000 tons versus 386,000 tons in the prior year period. Average prices increased 8% to $116.47 per ton versus $108.06 per ton in the prior year period primarily due to stronger demand from China. Operating income and Adjusted EBITDA1 of $0.2 million decreased $0.9 million versus the prior year period due to higher costs associated with port congestion.

Other Items

Second quarter corporate and other operating expenses of $6.5 millionincreased $1.2 million versus the prior year period due to higher stock-based compensation and other benefits expense ($0.5 million), higher depreciation expense ($0.2 million) and a reduction in overhead costs allocated to operating segments ($0.5 million).

Second quarter interest expense of $8.1 million decreased $0.5 million versus the prior year period due to lower average debt.

Second quarter non-operating income of $2.9 million includes unrealized gains on foreign currency derivatives used to mitigate the risk of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates with respect to anticipated distributions from the New Zealand JV.

Second quarter income tax expense of $7.1 million decreased $0.4 million versus the prior year period. The New Zealand JV is the primary driver of income tax expense.

Outlook

“Based on our solid first half results and our expectations for the balance of the year, we now anticipate full-year net income attributable to Rayonier of $82 to $89 million, EPS of $0.63 to $0.68 and Adjusted EBITDA of $300 to $315 million,” added Nunes. “We expect to achieve our prior full-year volume guidance in each of our three timber segments, although we anticipate lower volumes in the second half of the year relative to the first half of the year, primarily due to elevated first half harvest levels in response to strong market conditions. We continue to expect that overall pricing in the Southern Timber segment will be relatively flat, as price increases in certain regions will generally be offset by the geographic mix of harvest volumes. In the Pacific Northwest Timber segment, we expect a relatively stable pricing environment driven by continued strong domestic market conditions, although we expect a modest decline in our weighted-average prices based on product mix. In the New Zealand Timber segment, we expect some softening in export prices, primarily due to market uncertainty resulting from the ongoing trade tensions between the U.S. and China. While we believe that fundamental export market conditions remain favorable, we are continuing to monitor the trade dispute between the U.S. and China and the potential impacts on our business. In our Real Estate segment, we expect very light activity in the third and fourth quarters following extraordinarily strong first and second quarters, as the timing of closings was heavily weighted to the first half of the year.”

(a) Capital expenditures exclude timberland acquisitions of $31.2 million and $237.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively, as well as spending on the Rayonier office building of $5.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

(b) Cash Available for Distribution (CAD) is a non-GAAP measure that management uses to measure cash generated during a period that is available for common stock dividends, distributions to the New Zealand minority shareholder, repurchase of the Company’s common shares, debt reduction, strategic acquisitions and real estate development investments. CAD is defined as cash provided by operating activities adjusted for capital spending (excluding timberland acquisitions and spending on the Rayonier office building) and working capital and other balance sheet changes. CAD is not necessarily indicative of the CAD that may be generated in future periods.

(c) “Costs related to shareholder litigation” include expenses incurred as a result of the securities litigation and the shareholder derivative demands. See Note 10—Contingencies of Item 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(d) “Large Dispositions” are defined as transactions involving the sale of timberland that exceed $20 million in size and do not have a demonstrable premium relative to timberland value. In January 2017, the Company completed a disposition of approximately 25,000 acres of timberland located in Alabama for a sales price and gain of approximately $42.0 million and $28.2 million, respectively.

(e) Cash interest paid is presented net of patronage refunds received of $3.8 million and $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively.

(f) Pro forma revenues (sales) is defined as revenues (sales) adjusted for Large Dispositions. Rayonier believes that this non-GAAP financial measure provides investors with useful information to evaluate our core business operations because it excludes specific items that are not indicative of ongoing operating results.

(g) Pro forma net income is defined as net income attributable to Rayonier Inc. adjusted for costs related to shareholder litigation and Large Dispositions. Rayonier believes that this non-GAAP financial measure provides investors with useful information to evaluate our core business operations because it excludes specific items that are not indicative of ongoing operating results.

(h) Pro forma operating income (loss) is defined as operating income (loss) adjusted for costs related to shareholder litigation and Large Dispositions. Rayonier believes that this non-GAAP financial measure provides investors with useful information to evaluate our core business operations because it excludes specific items that are not indicative of ongoing operating results.

(i) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, the non-cash cost of land and improved development, non-operating income and expense, costs related to shareholder litigation and Large Dispositions. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that management uses to make strategic decisions about the business 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.
