JACKSONVILLE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 26, 2005--Rayonier (NYSE:RYN) today reported second quarter income from continuing operations of $41.6 million, or 81 cents per share. This compares to $34.8 million, or 68 cents per share, in first quarter 2005 and $44.8 million, or 88 cents per share, in second quarter 2004. Net income of $16.9 million, or 33 cents per share, included a write-down of $24.1 million, or 47 cents per share, and an operating loss of $0.6 million, or 1 cent per share, related to the planned sale of the medium-density-fiberboard (MDF) business, now classified as a discontinued operation for financial reporting purposes. Second quarter 2005 results also included a tax benefit of $7.2 million, or 14 cents per share, while first quarter 2005 results included a tax benefit of $9.5 million, or 19 cents per share, due to IRS audit settlements. Second quarter 2004 results included $15 million, or 29 cents per share, in earnings from a major real estate sale.
Lee Nutter, Chairman, President and CEO said: "Income from continuing operations for the second quarter, even before the positive effect of the tax audit settlement, was above first quarter as pricing and demand remained strong across all of our businesses. Cash flow also continues to be strong increasing quarter-end cash and cash equivalents to $136 million."
Second quarter income from continuing operations was above first quarter earnings, excluding the tax benefits in both quarters, mainly due to improved results from performance fibers and lumber, somewhat offset by lower real estate sales. On the same basis, compared to second quarter 2004, earnings declined primarily due to lower real estate sales, partially offset by higher Northwest U.S. timber results.
Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30 of $123 million was $35 million below the comparable period in 2004 and Cash Available for Distribution (CAD) of $94 million was $28 million below last year. (CAD is a non-GAAP measure defined and reconciled to GAAP in the attached exhibits.) Cash flow, while lower mainly as a result of higher working capital requirements and lower real estate sales, remained robust due to continued strength in our operations.
Sales for the second quarter of $290 million were $15 million above first quarter but $36 million below second quarter 2004.
Debt at quarter-end of $687 million was $28 million above year-end 2004 due to inter-company transactions, however, debt less cash was $550 million, a $24 million decrease from year end. The debt-to-capital ratio of 46.3 percent compared to 45.3 percent at the end of 2004.
Timber and Real Estate
Timber sales of $55 million were $3 million higher while operating income of $23 million was $1 million lower than first quarter, primarily due to higher costs. Compared to second quarter 2004, sales and operating income improved $5 million and $3 million, respectively, primarily due to increased Northwest U.S. timber prices.
Real estate sales of $15 million and operating income of $11 million were $9 million and $5 million below first quarter, respectively, and $26 million and $24 million lower than second quarter 2004, respectively, due to a large transaction in each of the prior periods.
Performance Fibers
Sales of $153 million were $10 million above first quarter, primarily due to improved prices and volumes. Operating income of $19 million increased $6 million compared to first quarter, mainly due to higher prices and lower costs (wood, maintenance and energy). Compared to second quarter 2004, sales and operating income were essentially unchanged. While higher prices positively impacted operating income, they were offset by lower volume and higher raw material costs.
Wood Products
Sales and operating income of $36 million and $6 million were $6 million and $2 million, respectively, above first quarter mainly due to improved lumber prices and volumes. Compared to second quarter 2004, sales improved $2 million while operating income was essentially the same, as higher prices offset increased manufacturing costs. (MDF is no longer included under Wood Products as it is now treated as a discontinued operation for financial reporting purposes.)
Other Operations
Sales of $32 million were $5 million above first quarter while operating income was essentially breakeven in both periods as higher trading volumes were offset by lower margins. Compared to second quarter 2004, sales and operating income declined $19 million and $2 million, respectively, due to weaker trading activity and lower coal royalty income.
Other Items
Corporate expenses of $8.3 million were $0.7 million above first quarter, mainly due to higher stock price-based incentive compensation, but $1.4 million below second quarter 2004, largely due to lower incentive compensation expense.
The year-to-date effective tax rate, before discrete items, was 15.7 percent compared to 24.5 percent for the same period in 2004 and 17.5 percent in the first quarter due to a higher percentage of non-taxable REIT income and lower taxes on foreign operations (see Schedule J for details).
The overall second quarter 2005 income tax benefit of $4.5 million included two discrete items: the previously noted $7.2 million tax benefit and a $2.5 million benefit for the currency impact on the tax liability for unrepatriated foreign earnings.
Outlook
The company indicated third quarter 2005 income from continuing operations is expected to be comparable to second quarter, excluding the aforementioned tax benefit of 14 cents per share, due to a significant increase in real estate earnings partly offset by lower results in performance fibers due to higher costs, and reduced foreign exchange related tax benefits. Earnings are expected to well exceed third quarter 2004 primarily due to stronger U.S. timber prices and real estate results.
Nutter said: "We are very pleased with year-to-date results and are well positioned for the second half of 2005. Demand remains strong across all businesses, particularly for higher value real estate holdings and cellulose specialty products. We anticipate that most of the second quarter's improvement over previous expectations will continue into the third and fourth quarters and that full year 2005 income from continuing operations, excluding special items, will compare quite favorably to 2004."
Rayonier has 2.2 million acres of prime timberland and real estate in the U.S. and New Zealand. The company recently formed a real estate subsidiary, TerraPointe LLC, to maximize the value of its extensive higher-and-better use properties, particularly in the fast growing counties along Interstate 95 between Savannah, Georgia, and Daytona Beach, Florida, where Rayonier owns approximately 200,000 acres. Rayonier is also the world's leading producer of high performance specialty cellulose fibers. Approximately 40 percent of the company's sales are outside the U.S. to customers in more than 50 countries.
Reported results are preliminary and not final until filing of the second quarter 2005 Form 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission and, therefore, remain subject to subsequent event adjustments. Comments about anticipated demand, pricing, earnings, tax planning opportunities and rates, and real estate sales and development opportunities are forward-looking and are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The following important factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements: changes in global market trends and world events; interest rate and currency movements; fluctuations in demand for or supply of cellulose specialties, absorbent materials, timber, wood products or real estate and entry of new competitors into these markets; adverse weather conditions affecting production, timber availability and sales, or distribution; changes in production costs for wood products or performance fibers, particularly for raw materials such as wood, energy and chemicals; unexpected delays in the closing of real estate sale transactions; changes in law or policy that might limit or restrict the development of real estate; the ability of the company to identify and complete timberland and higher-value real estate acquisitions; the company's ability to satisfy complex rules in order to qualify as a REIT; the availability of tax deductions and the ability of the company to complete tax-efficient exchanges of real estate; and implementation or revision of governmental policies and regulations affecting the environment, endangered species, import and export controls or taxes, including changes in tax laws that could reduce the benefits associated with REIT status. For additional factors that could impact future results, please see the company's most recent Form 10-K on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
A conference call will be held on Tuesday, July 26 at 4:15 p.m. EDT to discuss these results. Interested parties are invited to listen to the live webcast by logging onto http://www.rayonier.com and following the link. Supplemental materials will be available at the website.
