FEDERAL WAY, Wash., Aug. 5, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Weyerhaeuser Company (NYSE: WY) today reported second quarter net earnings to common shareholders of $157 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, on net sales from continuing operations of $1.7 billion. This compares with net earnings of $133 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, on net sales from continuing operations of $1.3 billion for the same period last year.

Second quarter results include after-tax earnings of $38 million from discontinued operations. Discontinued operations include the entirety of the company's Cellulose Fibers segment, which is comprised of pulp mills, a liquid packaging board facility, and a printing papers joint venture. Second quarter results also include net after-tax charges of $11 million from special items. Excluding these items, the company reported net earnings of $130 million, or $0.17 per diluted share for the second quarter. This compares with net earnings from continuing operations before special items of $114 million for the same period last year and $126 million for first quarter of 2016.

"Our businesses delivered solid second quarter operating results, with Wood Products capitalizing on improving markets and ongoing operational excellence initiatives to report its strongest quarter in over a decade," said Doyle R. Simons, president and CEO. "During the quarter we also announced the sale of our pulp and liquid packaging board facilities, repurchased over $830 million of common shares, and made strong progress on merger integration activities. Going forward, we remain relentlessly focused on successfully integrating Plum Creek, and fully capturing cost and operational synergies to drive superior value for our shareholders."

TIMBERLANDS

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (millions)	1Q 2016	2Q 2016	Change
Net sales	$609	$664	$55
Contribution to pre-tax earnings	$129	$125	($4)
Adjusted EBITDA	$199	$220	$21

2Q 2016 Performance - Timberlands earnings declined slightly compared with first quarter. Adjusted EBITDA, however, improved by 10 percent primarily due to higher fee harvest volumes. Non-cash depletion and amortization expense increased following a full quarter of higher depletion rates resulting from acquisition accounting.

Average realizations for Western and Southern logs declined modestly, primarily due to mix. In the West, domestic and China sales increased while Japan volumes decreased following an announced delay in a higher consumption tax. Southern silviculture expenses and Western logging costs increased seasonally.

3Q 2016 Outlook - Weyerhaeuser anticipates slightly lower earnings and Adjusted EBITDA from the Timberlands segment in the third quarter. In the West, the company expects comparable fee harvest volumes, seasonally higher per unit logging costs and slightly lower export prices. In the South, the company anticipates increased fee harvest volumes offset by seasonally higher silviculture expense.

REAL ESTATE, ENERGY AND NATURAL RESOURCES

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (millions)	1Q 2016	2Q 2016	Change
Net sales	$39	$38	($1)
Contribution to pre-tax earnings	$15	$12	($3)
Adjusted EBITDA	$34	$28	($6)

2Q 2016 Performance - Slightly lower Real Estate sales were partially offset by higher earnings from Energy and Natural Resources operations.

3Q 2016 Outlook - Weyerhaeuser expects significantly higher earnings and Adjusted EBITDA in the second half of 2016 with nearly all of the improvement coming from Real Estate sales in the fourth quarter.

WOOD PRODUCTS

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (millions)	1Q 2016	2Q 2016	Change
Net sales	$1,001	$1,168	$167
Contribution to pre-tax earnings	$87	$156	$69
Adjusted EBITDA	$117	$189	$72

2Q 2016 Performance - Average lumber realizations increased 10 percent and average realizations for oriented strand board increased 12 percent compared with first quarter. Sales volumes increased seasonally, log costs declined, and manufacturing costs improved in several product lines as a result of operational excellence initiatives.

3Q 2016 Outlook - Weyerhaeuser expects significantly higher earnings and Adjusted EBITDA from the Wood Products segment in the third quarter. The company anticipates improved price realizations across most product lines.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Discontinued operations include the company's Cellulose Fibers segment, which consists of pulp mills, a liquid packaging board facility, and a printing papers joint venture. These results correspond to assets and liabilities that have been reclassified as discontinued operations on our balance sheet as of June 30, 2016.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (millions)	1Q 2016	2Q 2016	Change
