NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
FOR THE QUARTERS ENDED
JUNE 30, 2012
AND
2011
NOTE 1:
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
We are a corporation that has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (REIT). We expect to derive most of our REIT income from investments in timberlands, including the sale of standing timber through pay-as-cut sales contracts. REIT income can be distributed to shareholders without first paying corporate level tax, substantially eliminating the double taxation on income. A significant portion of our timberland segment earnings receives this favorable tax treatment. We are, however, subject to corporate taxes on built-in-gains (the excess of fair market value over tax basis at January 1, 2010) on sales of real property (other than standing timber) held by the REIT during the first 10 years following the REIT conversion. We also will continue to be required to pay federal corporate income taxes on earnings of our Taxable REIT Subsidiary (TRS), which principally includes our manufacturing businesses, our real estate development business and the portion of our Timberlands segment income included in the TRS.
Our consolidated financial statements provide an overall view of our results and financial condition. They include our accounts and the accounts of entities we control, including:
•
majority-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries and
•
variable interest entities in which we are the primary beneficiary.
They do not include our intercompany transactions and accounts, which are eliminated, and noncontrolling interests are presented as a separate component of equity.
We account for investments in and advances to unconsolidated equity affiliates using the equity method, with taxes provided on undistributed earnings. This means that we record earnings and accrue taxes in the period earnings are recognized by our unconsolidated equity affiliates.
We report our financial condition in two groups:
•
Forest Products – our forest products-based operations, principally the growing and harvesting of timber, the manufacture, distribution and sale of forest products and corporate governance activities; and
•
Real Estate – our real estate development and construction operations.
Throughout these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, unless specified otherwise, references to “Weyerhaeuser,” “we” and “our” refer to the consolidated company, including both Forest Products and Real Estate.
The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements 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 Consolidated Financial Statements, such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The 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 have been omitted. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2011
. Results of operations for interim periods should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
6
RECLASSIFICATIONS
We have reclassified certain balances and results from the prior year to be consistent with our
2012
reporting. This makes year-to-year comparisons easier. Our reclassifications had no effect on net earnings or Weyerhaeuser shareholders’ interest. The reclassifications include the following:
•
We changed the way we classify certain transactions as operating or financing on our Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
•
Results of operations discontinued in 2011 are presented separately on our Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Note 4: Discontinued Operations
provides information about our discontinued operations.
•
We now report the elimination of intersegment profit on inventory and the LIFO reserve in Unallocated Items. Previously these company-level adjustments were recorded in the business segments. This provides a better understanding of business operating results.
NOTE 2:
BUSINESS SEGMENTS
We are principally engaged in the growing and harvesting of timber; the manufacture, distribution and sale of forest products; and real estate development and construction. Our principal business segments are:
•
Timberlands – which includes logs; timber; minerals, oil and gas; and international wood products;
•
Wood Products – which includes softwood lumber, engineered lumber, structural panels and building materials distribution;
•
Cellulose Fibers – which includes pulp, liquid packaging board and an equity interest in a newsprint joint venture; and
•
Real Estate – which includes real estate development, construction and sales.
We have disposed of various businesses and operations that are excluded from the segment results below. See
Note 4: Discontinued Operations
for information regarding our discontinued operations.
7
An analysis and reconciliation of our business segment information to the respective information in the Consolidated Financial Statements is as follows:

$0.16
during
second
quarter and
$0.23
during
first half
2012, respectively; and
•
$0.02
during
second
quarter and
$0.20
during
first half
2011, respectively.
Basic earnings per share is net earnings divided by the weighted average number of our outstanding common shares, including stock equivalent units where there is no circumstance under which those shares would not be issued.
Diluted earnings per share is net earnings divided by the sum of the:
•
weighted average number of our outstanding common shares and
•
the effect of our outstanding dilutive potential common shares.
8
Dilutive potential common shares can include:
•
outstanding stock options,
•
restricted stock units and
•
performance share units.
We use the treasury stock method to calculate the effect of our outstanding dilutive potential common shares. Share-based payment awards that are contingently issuable upon the achievement of specified performance or market conditions are included in our diluted earnings per share calculation in the period in which the conditions are satisfied.
SHARES EXCLUDED FROM DILUTIVE EFFECT
The following shares were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were either antidilutive or the required performance or market conditions were not met. Some or all of these shares may be dilutive potential common shares in future periods.

To estimate the fair value of long-term debt, we used the following valuation approaches:
•
market approach – based on quoted market prices for the same types and issues of our debt; or
•
income approach – based on the discounted value of the future cash flows using market yields for the same type and comparable issues of debt.
The inputs to the valuations are based on market data obtained from independent sources or information derived principally from observable market data.
The difference between the fair value and the carrying value represents the theoretical net premium or discount we would pay or receive to retire all debt at the measurement date.
We recognized a pretax charge in second quarter 2011 of
$26 million
, which included early retirement premiums, unamortized debt issuance costs and other miscellaneous charges in connection with the early extinguishment of debt. This charge is included in interest expense in our
Consolidated Statement of Operations
.
FAIR VALUE OF OTHER FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
We believe that our other financial instruments, including cash, short-term investments, 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,
•
carrying short-term investments at expected net realizable value and
•
the allowance for doubtful accounts.

During fourth quarter 2011, we ratified amendments to our postretirement medical and life insurance benefit plans for U.S. salaried employees that reduced or eliminated certain benefits that were available to both past and present employees. The company recognized a gain of
$51 million
in second quarter 2012 and
$103 million
in first half 2012 due to these benefit changes. This gain is included in other operating income and reflected in the amortization of prior service credit in the table above. As of the end of second quarter 2012, the gain for the fourth quarter amendments has been fully recognized.
FAIR VALUE OF PENSION PLAN ASSETS
We estimate the fair value of pension plan assets based upon the information available during the year-end
reporting process. In some cases, primarily private equity funds, the information available consists of net asset
values as of an interim date, cash flows between the interim date and the end of the year and market events. We revise the year-end estimated fair value of pension plan assets to incorporate year-end net asset values reflected in audited financial statements received after we have filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The fair value of pension assets as of December 31, 2011 were
$15 million
higher than we estimated at year end.
We recorded the following adjustment during second quarter 2012 to reflect updated participant information as of the beginning of the year, which was partially offset by the increase in the pension assets:
•
$23 million
increase in the liability for deferred pension;
•
$9 million
decrease in the liability for deferred income taxes; and
•
$14 million
net increase in cumulative other comprehensive loss, which resulted in a decrease in total Weyerhaeuser shareholders' interest.
EXPECTED CONTRIBUTIONS AND BENEFIT PAYMENTS
As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, and updated for final asset valuations and plan and participant information, we expect to:
•
make approximately
$87 million
of required contributions to our Canadian registered and nonregistered pension plans in 2012;
•
contribute approximately
$20 million
to our U.S. nonqualified pension plans in 2012; and
•
make U.S. and Canadian other postretirement benefit payments of approximately
$42 million
in 2012.
Congress passed legislation in June 2012 that changed the way the discount rate is computed for purposes of determining minimum pension contribution funding. Based upon this legislation, we do
not expect
to have a required contribution to our U.S. qualified plan, which we previously estimated to be
$60 million
due by September 2013.

NOTE 12:
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS, COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
This note provides details about our:
•
legal proceedings and
•
environmental matters.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are party to legal matters generally incidental to our business. The ultimate outcome of any legal proceeding:
•
is subject to a great many variables and
•
cannot be predicted with certainty.
However, whenever probable losses from litigation could reasonably be determined – we believe that we have established adequate reserves. In addition, we believe the ultimate outcome of the legal proceedings:
•
could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows or financial position in any given quarter or year; but
•
will not have a material adverse effect on our long-term results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
Our environmental matters include:
•
site remediation and
•
asset retirement obligations.
Site Remediation
Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act – commonly known as the Superfund – and similar state laws, we:
•
are a party to various proceedings related to the cleanup of hazardous waste sites and
•
have been notified that we may be a potentially responsible party related to the cleanup of other hazardous waste sites for which proceedings have not yet been initiated.
As of
June 30, 2012
, our total accrual for future estimated remediation costs on the active Superfund sites and other sites for which we are responsible was approximately
$33 million
. The accrual has not changed materially since the end of
2011
.
Asset Retirement Obligations
We have obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets consisting primarily of reforestation obligations related to forest management licenses in Canada and obligations to close and cap landfills. As of
June 30, 2012
, our total accruals for these obligations was
$65 million
. The accruals have not changed materially since the end of
2011
.
Some of our sites have asbestos containing materials. We have met our current legal obligation to identify and manage these materials. In situations where we cannot reasonably determine when asbestos containing materials might be removed from the sites, we have not recorded an accrual because the fair value of the obligation cannot be reasonably estimated.
15
NOTE 13:
INCOME TAXES
As a REIT, we generally are not subject to corporate level tax on income of the REIT that is distributed to shareholders. We will, however, be subject to corporate taxes on built-in-gains (the excess of fair market value over tax basis at January 1, 2010) on sales of real property (other than standing timber) held by the REIT during the first 10 years following the REIT conversion. We also will continue to be required to pay federal corporate income taxes on earnings of our TRS, which principally includes our manufacturing businesses, our real estate development business and the portion of our Timberlands segment income included in the TRS.
The 2012 provision for income taxes is based on the year-to-date effective tax rate that applies to our TRS. Our 2012 estimated annual effective tax rate, excluding discrete items, is
22.7 percent
and differs from the U.S. statutory rate, primarily due to lower tax rates applicable to non-U.S. results. The tax rate for the quarter differs from the estimated annual effective tax rate, primarily due to a different mix of non-U.S. earnings or losses in the quarter relative to the annual period.
Discrete items excluded from the calculation of our effective income tax rates include:

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (“MD&A”)
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains statements concerning our future results and performance that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements:
•
are based on various assumptions we make and
•
may not be accurate because of risks and uncertainties surrounding the assumptions that we make.
Factors listed in this section – as well as other factors not included – may cause our actual results to differ significantly from our forward-looking statements. There is no guarantee that any of the events anticipated by our forward-looking statements will occur. Or if any of the events occur, there is no guarantee what effect they will have on our operations or financial condition.
We will not update our forward-looking statements after the date of this report.
FORWARD-LOOKING TERMINOLOGY
Some forward-looking statements discuss our plans, strategies and intentions. They use words such as expects, may, will, believes, should, approximately, anticipates, estimates, and plans. In addition, these words may use the positive or negative or other variations of those terms.
STATEMENTS
We make forward-looking statements of our expectations regarding third quarter
2012
, including:
•
slightly lower export log realizations, lower domestic selling prices for Western logs, somewhat lower Southern log price realizations, higher earnings from the disposition of non-strategic timberlands, and comparable earnings in our Timberlands segment;
•
flat to slightly lower sales volumes, seasonally softer sales realizations, increased log costs in Canada, flat log costs in the South, declining log costs in the West, and solidly profitable results in our Wood Products segment;
•
weaker selling prices for pulp, higher pulp sales volumes, improved productivity, lower annual maintenance expense, reduced chemical and energy and fiber costs, slightly higher freight expense, and significantly higher earnings in our Cellulose Fiber segment; and
•
higher home closing volume, slightly lower average selling prices, gross margins of approximately 20 percent, increased selling expenses, and increased earnings from single-family homebuilding operations in our Real Estate segment.
We base our forward-looking statements on a number of factors, including the expected effect of:
•
the economy;
•
regulations;
•
adverse litigation outcomes and the adequacy of reserves;
•
changes in accounting principles;
•
contributions to pension plans;
•
projected benefit payments;
•
projected tax rates and credits; and
•
other related matters.
17
RISKS, UNCERTAINTIES AND ASSUMPTIONS
The major risks and uncertainties – and assumptions that we make – that affect our business and may cause actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:
•
the effect of general economic conditions, including employment rates, housing starts, interest rate levels, availability of financing for home mortgages and strength of the U.S. dollar;
•
market demand for our products, which is related to the strength of the various U.S. business segments and U.S. and international economic conditions;
•
performance of our manufacturing operations, including maintenance requirements;
•
the successful execution of our internal performance plans, including restructurings and cost reduction initiatives;
•
the level of competition from domestic and foreign producers;
•
the effect of weather;
•
the risk of loss from fires, floods, windstorms, hurricanes, pest infestation and other natural disasters;
•
raw material prices;
•
energy prices;
•
transportation costs;
•
the effect of forestry, land use, environmental and other governmental regulations;
•
federal tax policies;
•
legal proceedings;
•
performance of pension fund investments and related derivatives;
•
the effect of timing of retirements and changes in the market price of our common stock on charges for share-based compensation;
•
changes in accounting principles; and
•
other factors described under “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K.
EXPORTING ISSUES
We are a large exporter, affected by changes in:
•
economic activity in Europe and Asia – particularly Japan and China;
•
currency exchange rates – particularly the relative value of the U.S. dollar to the euro and Canadian dollar and the relative value of the euro and yen; and
•
restrictions on international trade or tariffs imposed on imports.
18
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
In reviewing our results of operations, it is important to understand these terms:
•
Price realizations refer to net selling prices – this includes selling price plus freight, minus normal sales deductions.
•
Net contribution to earnings can be positive or negative and refers to earnings (loss) attributable to Weyerhaeuser shareholders before interest expense and income taxes.
In reviewing our results of operations, it is important to understand net sales and revenues and operating income included in Consolidated Results and individual segment discussions below exclude the results of discontinued operations. Refer to
Note 4: Discontinued Operations
.
In the following discussion, unless otherwise noted, references to increases or decreases in income and expense items, price realizations, shipment volumes, and net contributions to earnings are based on the quarter and year-to-date periods ended
June 30, 2012
, compared to the quarter and year-to-date periods ended
June 30, 2011
. The periods are also referred to as 2012 and 2011 or first half.

Net sales and revenues
Net sales and revenues increased
$183 million
– 11 percent – primarily due to the following:
•
Wood Products segment sales increased $171 million, primarily due to higher sales volumes across all major product lines and improved selling prices for lumber, oriented strand board (OSB) and plywood; and
•
Real Estate segment sales increased $105 million, primarily due to the sale of a 3,200 acre master planned community in Houston, Texas.
These increases were partially offset by:
•
Cellulose Fibers segment sales decreased $67 million, primarily due to lower pulp price realizations; and
•
Timberlands segment sales decreased $26 million, primarily due to a decrease in timberlands exchanges and lower mineral, oil and gas revenue partially offset by increased sales in our international operations.

Net earnings attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders
Our net earnings attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders increased
$74 million
primarily from:
•
a $51 million pretax gain recognized in 2012 related to a previously announced postretirement plan amendment; and
•
a $31 million decrease in interest expense due to lower charges associated with the early extinguishment of debt and lower interest due to a lower level of debt.
These increases in our earnings were partially offset by a $21 million change in income taxes due to the change in discrete tax items and income in our TRS in second quarter 2012 compared to a loss in our TRS in second quarter 2011.
Comparing Year-to-Date

Net sales and revenues
Net sales and revenues increased
$255 million
– 8 percent – primarily due to the following:
•
Wood Products segment sales increased $279 million, primarily due to higher sales volumes across all major product lines and improved selling prices for lumber, OSB and plywood; and
•
Real Estate segment sales increased $82 million, primarily due to the sale of a 3,200 acre master planned community in Houston, Texas.
These increases were partially offset by a $100 million decrease in Cellulose Fibers segment sales, primarily due to lower pulp price realizations.
Net earnings attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders
Our net earnings attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders increased
$16 million
– 15 percent – primarily from:
•
a $103 million pretax gain recognized in 2012 related to a previously announced postretirement plan amendment;
•
a $50 million decrease in income taxes due to the change in discrete tax items and lower income in our TRS in year-to-date 2012 compared to our TRS in year-to-date 2011;
•
a $37 million decrease in interest expense due to lower charges associated with the early extinguishment of debt and lower interest due to a lower level of debt; and
•
a $25 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as the result of previous cost reduction efforts and lower share-based compensation expense.
These increases in our earnings were partially offset by:
•
a pretax gain of $152 million on the sale of 82,000 acres of non-strategic timberlands in 2011; and
•
gross margin decreased $31 million, primarily due to lower pulp price realizations in our Cellulose Fibers segment and fewer timberlands exchanges and higher and better-use land sales in our Timberlands segment partially offset by higher price realizations of lumber, OSB and plywood in our Wood Products segment.

Comparing
Second
Quarter
2012
with
Second
Quarter
2011
Net sales and revenues – unaffiliated customers
Net sales and revenues to unaffiliated customers decreased
$26 million
– 9 percent – primarily from the following:
•
a $32 million decrease in timberlands exchanges;
•
an $8 million decrease in minerals, oil and gas revenue primarily due to lower natural gas prices; and
•
Western log sales decreased $6 million primarily due to lower export and domestic log prices, partially offset by increased sales volumes of 12 percent.
The above items were partially offset by:
•
an $8 million increase in sales from our international operations due to a 16 percent increase in plywood prices and a 42 percent increase in plywood sales volumes; and
21
•
Southern log sales increased $7 million due to increased sales volumes of 12 percent as a result of increased third party demand.
Net contribution to earnings
Net contribution to earnings decreased
$41 million
– 35 percent – primarily from:
•
a $24 million decrease due to fewer timberlands exchanges and higher and better-use land sales;
•
a $16 million decrease due to lower export and domestic log prices in the West; and
•
a $7 million decrease in mineral income as a result of lower natural gas prices.
These decreases were partially offset by a $12 million increase, primarily due to increased demand for domestic logs and an increase in harvest levels of 5 percent in the West and 18 percent in the South.
Comparing Year-to-Date
2012
with Year-to-Date
2011
Net sales and revenues – unaffiliated customers
Net sales and revenues to unaffiliated customers decreased
$6 million
– 1 percent – primarily from the following:
•
a $45 million decrease in timberlands exchanges; and
•
a $15 million decrease in minerals, oil and gas revenue primarily due to lower natural gas prices.
The above items were partially offset by:
•
Southern log sales increased by $16 million due to increased sales volumes of 17 percent as a result of increased harvest levels in response to increased third party demand.
•
Sales from our international operations increased by $16 million, primarily due to increased plywood prices of 16 percent and plywood sales volumes of 47 percent.
•
Western log sales increased by $14 million primarily due to increased sales volumes of 15 percent. Increased export sales to Japan and domestic sales volumes were partially offset by lower export sales to China and domestic prices.
Net contribution to earnings
Net contribution to earnings decreased
$212 million
– 59 percent – primarily from:
•
a $152 million decrease due to the sale of 82,000 acres of non-strategic timberlands in 2011;
•
a $34 million decrease due to fewer timberlands exchanges and higher and better-use land sales;
•
a $22 million decrease as the mix of export log sales compared to domestic log sales decreased in the West and domestic log prices were lower in both the West and South;
•
a $14 million decrease in mineral income as a result of lower natural gas prices; and
•
operating costs increased $11 million, primarily due to higher fuel, logging and road costs.
The above items were partially offset by a $25 million increase, primarily due to increased demand for domestic and export logs and an increase in harvest levels of 5 percent in the West and 21 percent in the South.
Our Outlook
We expect comparable earnings from the Timberlands segment in third quarter. We expect higher earnings from disposition of non-strategic timberlands, partially offset by lower domestic selling prices for Western logs and a decline in Southern log price realizations due to mix.

Overall performance in our Wood Products segment improved year over year. We continue to focus on reducing costs and increasing revenues by broadening our customer base; introducing new products; growing our specialty, as well as commodity building products business; and improving our operational capabilities. These improvement efforts and slightly better market conditions, have resulted in higher production rates in all primary product lines.

•
Softwood plywood shipment volumes increased 40 percent and average price realizations increased 25 percent.
•
Other products produced increased 22 percent.
•
Other products purchased for resale increased 20 percent.
The above items were partially offset by a decrease of 11 percent in engineered solid section average price realizations.
Net contribution to earnings
Net contribution to earnings increased
$98 million
primarily from:
•
a $77 million increase as higher lumber, OSB and plywood price realizations more than offset lower prices for engineered I-joists and engineered solid section;
•
manufacturing costs decreased $13 million, primarily due to increased operating rates;
•
log costs decreased $7 million, primarily due to lower domestic prices in the West;
•
by-product sales increased $7 million as the result of higher lumber production volumes; and
•
2011 included an $8 million loss from discontinued operations.
These increases were partially offset by a $14 million increase in freight expense due to higher shipment volumes.

Net contribution to earnings
Net contribution to earnings increased
$117 million
primarily from:
•
an $82 million increase as higher lumber, OSB and plywood price realizations more than offset lower prices for engineered I-joists and engineered solid section;
•
manufacturing costs decreased $24 million, primarily due to increased operating rates;
•
by-product sales increased $15 million as the result of higher lumber production volumes;
•
a $10 million increase in sales volumes across all products;
•
log costs decreased $10 million, primarily due to lower domestic prices in the West and South; and
•
2011 included an $8 million loss from discontinued operations.
These increases were partially offset by a $25 million increase in freight expense due to higher shipment volumes.
Our Outlook
We expect the Wood Products segment to be solidly profitable in third quarter, although not as strong as second quarter results. We expect sales volumes to be flat to down slightly. Sales realizations may soften seasonally, especially for lumber, although overall channel inventories remain thinly stocked. Log costs are projected to increase in Canada, be flat in the South and lower in the West.

Comparing
Second
Quarter
2012
with
Second
Quarter
2011
Net sales and revenues
Net sales and revenues decreased
$67 million
– 13 percent – primarily due to a decrease in pulp price realizations of $141 per ton – 15 percent – resulting from global uncertainties and a weak euro, while worldwide inventory levels normalized.
Net contribution to earnings
Net contribution to earnings decreased
$49 million
– 58 percent – primarily due to:
•
a $60 million decrease due to lower pulp price realizations and
•
a $5 million decrease due to increased fiber and chemical costs.
These decreases were partially offset by a $16 million decrease in maintenance and contractor services due to fewer annual maintenance outages in 2012.
Comparing Year-to-Date
2012
with Year-to-Date
2011
Net sales and revenues
Net sales and revenues decreased
$100 million
– 10 percent – primarily due to:
•
Pulp price realizations decreased $117 per ton – 13 percent – resulting from global uncertainties and a weak euro, while worldwide inventory levels normalized; and
•
Sales volumes for liquid packaging board decreased 5,000 tons – 3 percent.
These decreases were partially offset by an increase in sales volumes for pulp of 12,000 tons – 1 percent.
Net contribution to earnings
Net contribution to earnings decreased
$93 million
– 53 percent – primarily due to:
•
a $102 million decrease due to lower pulp price realizations and
•
a $12 million decrease due to increased fiber and chemical costs.
These decreases were partially offset by a $20 million decrease in maintenance and contractor services due to fewer annual maintenance outages in 2012.
26
Our Outlook
We expect substantially higher Cellulose Fibers earnings in third quarter. We anticipate improved productivity, lower annual maintenance expense and reduced chemical, energy and fiber costs. We expect downward pressure on pulp prices as the weak Euro and the uncertain international economic environment persists. We expect pulp sales volumes to increase, offsetting the effect of lower pulp prices.

Comparing
Second
Quarter
2012
with
Second
Quarter
2011
Net sales and revenues
Net sales and revenues increased
$105 million
– 55 percent – primarily due to:
•
Revenues from land and lot sales increased
$94 million
. 2012 included the sale of a 3,200 acre master planned community in Houston, Texas. Land and lot sales are a routine part of our land development business but they do not occur evenly from period to period.
•
Single-family housing revenues increased
$10 million
. Home closings increased 11 percent to
508
in 2012 from
459
in 2011, but the average price of homes closed decreased 4 percent to
$374,000
in 2012 from
$391,000
in 2011.
Net contribution to earnings
Net contribution to earnings increased
$7 million
primarily due to:
•
an $8 million increase in contribution from land and lot sales; and
•
a $2 million improvement in selling, general and administrative expenses.
These improvements were partially offset by a $3 million decrease in contribution from single-family units. Unit closings increased slightly, but margins declined due to a shift in the mix of homes closed. Single-family gross margins were
19.5 percent
in 2012 compared to
22.4 percent
in 2011. Changes in mix reflect both changes in product lines (entry-level homes versus move-up products) and changes in geographic markets where the closings occur.
Comparing Year-to-Date
2012
with Year-to-Date
2011
Net sales and revenues
Net sales and revenues increased
$82 million
– 23 percent – primarily due to a
$90 million
increase in revenues from land and lot sales. Second quarter 2012 included the sale of a 3,200 acre master planned community in Houston, Texas.
This increase was partially offset by an
$11 million
decrease in single-family housing revenues. Home closings increased 4 percent to
857
in 2012 from
822
in 2011. The average price of homes closed decreased 7 percent to
$375,000
in 2012 from
$404,000
in 2011.
28
Net contribution to earnings
Net contribution to earnings was comparable year over year. Contribution from single-family housing activities decreased $13 million. Unit closings increased slightly, but margins declined due to a shift in the mix of homes closed. Single-family gross margins were
18.6 percent
in 2012 compared to
22.0 percent
in 2011.
This decrease was offset by:
•
a $9 million increase in contribution from land and lot sales; and
•
a $5 million improvement in selling, general and administrative expenses.
Our Outlook
We expect slightly higher earnings from single-family homebuilding operations in third quarter. We anticipate seasonally higher home closings, partially offset by slightly lower average selling prices due to mix and slightly higher selling expenses due to the additional closing volume.
UNALLOCATED ITEMS
Unallocated items are gains or charges not related to or allocated to an individual operating segment. They include a portion of items such as: share-based compensation; pension and postretirement costs; foreign exchange transaction gains and losses associated with financing; and beginning in 2012, the elimination of intersegment profit in inventory and the LIFO reserve. Unallocated items were:
•
$23 million
during
second
quarter and
$39 million
during first half
2012
.
•
$(32) million during
second
quarter and $(83) million during first half
2011
.
Changes in unallocated items were primarily due to:
•
recognized gains of
$51 million
during second quarter 2012 and
$103 million
during first half 2012 related to a previously announced postretirement plan amendment; and
•
second quarter and first half 2011 included an $11 million charge for environmental remediation expense related to discontinued operations.
INTEREST EXPENSE
Our net interest expense incurred was:
•
$86 million
during
second
quarter and
$173 million
during first half
2012
.
•
$117 million
during
second
quarter and
$210 million
during first half
2011
.
Interest expense incurred decreased due to lower charges associated with the early extinguishment of debt and lower interest due to a lower level of debt.
Second quarter and first half 2011 net interest expense includes a pretax charge of
$26 million
, which included early retirement premiums, unamortized debt issuance costs and other miscellaneous charges in connection with the early extinguishment of debt.
INCOME TAXES
As a REIT, we generally are not subject to corporate level tax on income of the REIT that is distributed to shareholders. We will, however, be subject to corporate taxes on built-in-gains (the excess of fair market value over tax basis at January 1, 2010) on sales of real property (other than standing timber) held by the REIT during the first 10 years following the REIT conversion. We also will continue to be required to pay federal corporate income taxes on earnings of our TRS, which principally includes our manufacturing businesses, our real estate development business and the portion of our Timberlands segment income included in the TRS.
29
The 2012 provision for income taxes is based on the year-to-date effective tax rate that applies to our TRS. Our 2012 estimated annual effective tax rate, excluding discrete items, is
22.7 percent
and differs from the U.S. statutory rate, primarily due to lower tax rates applicable to non-U.S. results. The tax rate for the quarter differs from the estimated annual effective tax rate, primarily due to a different mix of non-U.S. earnings or losses in the quarter relative to the annual period.
Discrete items excluded from the calculation of our effective income tax rates include:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We are committed to maintaining a sound and conservative capital structure which enables us to:
•
protect the interests of our shareholders and lenders and
•
have access at all times to all major financial markets.
Two important elements of our policy governing capital structure include:
•
viewing the capital structure of Forest Products separately from that of Real Estate given the very different nature of their assets and business activity and
•
minimizing liquidity risk by managing timing of debt maturities.
The amount of debt and equity for Forest Products and Real Estate will reflect the following:
•
basic earnings capacity and
•
liquidity characteristics of their respective assets.
CASH FROM OPERATIONS
Cash from operations includes:
•
cash received from customers;
•
cash paid to employees, suppliers and others;
•
cash paid for interest on our debt;
•
cash paid for pension and postretirement contributions; and
•
cash paid for taxes.
Consolidated net cash provided in our operations was:
•
$207 million
in
2012
and
•
$27 million
in
2011
.
30
Comparing
2012
with
2011
Net cash from operations increased $180 million in
2012
as compared with
2011
, primarily due to the following:
•
Cash paid to employees, suppliers and others decreased approximately $117 million. Cash paid decreased due to the sale of discontinued operations in third quarter 2011 partially offset by increases in cash paid in our Wood Products segment due to increased production rates.
•
Cash paid for interest decreased $79 million, primarily due to the early retirement of $518 million of debt in second quarter 2011. We paid interest of $168 million in first half 2012 compared to $247 million in first half 2011.
•
Net cash inflows related to income taxes increased $30 million. We received income tax refunds of $15 million in first half 2012 and paid income taxes of $15 million in first half 2011.
Partially offsetting the above increases was a decrease in cash, primarily due to the following:
•
Pension and postretirement contributions increased $31 million, due almost entirely to the timing of contributions to the Canadian registered and nonregistered pension plans. Contributions to the Canadian plans in 2012 are expected to be comparable to 2011, but will be spread more evenly over the year.
•
Cash we received from customers decreased approximately $18 million. Cash received decreased due to the sale of discontinued operations in third quarter 2011 and decreased sales in our Cellulose Fibers segment partially offset by increased sales in our Wood Products segment and a land sale completed in second quarter 2012 in our Real Estate segment, from which we received approximately $98 million in cash.
Expected Pension Contributions and Benefit Payments
As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, and updated for final asset valuations and plan and participant information, we expect to:
•
make approximately
$87 million
of required contributions to our Canadian registered and nonregistered pension plans in 2012;
•
contribute approximately
$20 million
to our U.S. nonqualified pension plans in 2012; and
•
make U.S. and Canadian other postretirement benefit payments of approximately
$42 million
in 2012.
Congress passed legislation in June 2012 that changed the way the discount rate is computed for purposes of determining minimum pension contribution funding. Based upon this legislation, we do
not expect
to have a required contribution to our U.S. qualified plan, which we previously estimated to be
$60 million
due by September 2013.
CASH FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES
Cash from investing activities can include:
•
acquisitions of property, equipment, timberlands and reforestation;
•
investments in or distribution from equity affiliates; and
•
proceeds from sale of assets and operations.

Proceeds from the Sale of Nonstrategic Assets
Proceeds received from the sale of nonstrategic assets in 2011 included $192 million for the sale of 82,000 acres of non-strategic timberlands in southwestern Washington.
During third quarter 2012, our cash will be used to pay approximately $97 million of long-term debt scheduled to mature for one of our monetization special-purpose entities (SPEs). We will receive approximately $110 million in fourth quarter 2012 when the related buyer-sponsored SPE's bank financial instrument matures. More information about these entities, which were formed in connection with the sale of nonstrategic timberlands in 2002, can be found in our annual reports on Form 10-K for 2011 and 2002.
