Rayonier Reports First Quarter 2005 Results
JACKSONVILLE, Fla., April 26, 2005 – Rayonier (NYSE:RYN) today reported first quarter net income of $34.4 million, or 67 cents per share. This compares to $13.5 million, or 26 cents per share, in fourth quarter 2004 and $75.5 million, or $1.49 per share, in first quarter 2004. First quarter 2005 results included a tax benefit of $9.5 million, or 19 cents per share, resulting from an IRS audit settlement relating to 1996 and 1997 tax years. First quarter 2004 results included a net tax benefit of $49.7 million, or 98 cents per share, and costs of $4.8 million, or 7 cents per share, relating to the company’s REIT conversion.
Lee Nutter, Chairman, President and CEO said: “As expected, first quarter earnings improved significantly from the fourth quarter due to improved results in our two core businesses, Timber and Real Estate, and Performance Fibers, and we are continuing to experience strong pricing and demand across all product lines. Cash flow remains very good, further supporting our decision in February to increase the annual dividend 10.7 percent to $2.48 per share, while maintaining our flexibility to pursue growth opportunities.”
First quarter earnings, excluding the tax benefit of 19 cents per share, were above fourth quarter primarily due to stronger results in Northwest U.S timber, performance fibers and real estate. Compared to first quarter 2004 excluding the net tax benefit of 98 cents per share, earnings declined slightly with strong results in performance fibers and lower corporate expenses offset by reduced real estate sales and higher taxes.
Cash provided by operating activities of $76 million was $6 million below first quarter 2004 and Cash Available for Distribution (CAD) of $60 million was $4 million
below last year’s first quarter. (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, remained robust due to continued strength in operations.
Sales of $286 million were $11 million below fourth quarter and $7 million below first quarter 2004.
Debt at quarter-end of $661 million was $3 million above year end 2004, however, debt less cash totaled $565 million, a $10 million decrease from year end. The debt-to-capital ratio of 45.0 percent compared to 45.3 percent at the end of 2004.
Timber and Real Estate
Sales of $76 million and operating income of $39 million were $17 million and $11 million above fourth quarter, respectively, primarily due to increased U.S. timber volume and prices as well as higher real estate sales. Compared to first quarter 2004, sales and operating income declined $11 million and $8 million, respectively, mainly due to reduced real estate sales.
Performance Fibers
Sales of $143 million were $11 million below fourth quarter, primarily due to reduced cellulose specialties volume partly offset by higher absorbent materials volume and stronger cellulose specialties prices. However, operating income of $12 million increased $7 million from fourth quarter, mainly as a result of lower wood, labor and maintenance costs. Compared to first quarter 2004, sales and operating income increased $10 million and $6 million, respectively, largely due to higher cellulose specialties prices and volume as well as stronger absorbent materials prices.
Wood Products
Sales of $42 million were $2 million below fourth quarter, as lower lumber and MDF volumes were partially offset by higher prices. Operating income of $2 million compared to an essentially breakeven result in the fourth quarter, due to improved lumber prices and manufacturing costs. Compared to first quarter 2004, sales and operating income improved $4 million and $2 million, respectively, with higher prices partially offset by increased manufacturing costs.
Other Operations
Sales of $26 million were $15 million and $11 million below fourth quarter and first quarter 2004, respectively. Essentially breakeven operating results compared to operating income of $1 million and $2 million in fourth quarter and first quarter 2004, respectively, primarily due to lower trading activity.
Other Items
Corporate expenses of $7.6 million were $1.8 million below fourth quarter, mainly due to lower stock price-based incentive compensation, and $5.6 million lower than first quarter 2004, largely because of the absence of REIT conversion costs.
The effective tax rate for the first quarter, excluding discrete items, was 16.5 percent compared to 19.4 percent in first quarter 2004 as a result of an increased percentage of non-taxable REIT income and additional tax credits. (See Schedule I for details.) First quarter 2005’s effective rate, excluding discrete items, compares to the full year 2004 rate of 11.8 percent which included like-kind exchange (LKE) benefits of $11 million that reduced the effective rate by approximately nine percentage points. The company has $22 million of real estate proceeds, mostly from the first quarter, designated to pursue timberland purchases qualifying for tax-free LKE treatment which could reduce 2005 tax expense by approximately $7 million and the effective tax rate by five percentage points.
In addition to the previously noted tax benefit of 19 cents per share, first quarter’s tax provision included two other discrete items: expenses of $2.9 million for unrealizable foreign tax credits and $1.1 million for the currency impact on the tax liability for un-repatriated foreign earnings.
Outlook
Nutter said: “We are off to an excellent start in 2005. In particular, demand is very strong in the Northwest for our timber and globally for our cellulose specialties products. While we are experiencing some increased energy and chemical costs at our performance fibers mills, given our strong start and the unique mix of our businesses, we are optimistic that full year 2005 earnings will compare favorably to 2004.
“Because of rapidly escalating demand for our higher value real estate, especially in Florida, we have made a strategic decision to hold some properties off the market in anticipation of significantly increased values over the next few years.”
The company indicated second quarter 2005 earnings are expected to be somewhat above first quarter, excluding the previously noted tax benefit of 19 cents per share, but, due to reduced real estate sales, below second quarter 2004.
Rayonier has 2.2 million acres of prime timberland and real estate in the U.S. and New Zealand and is 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 first 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, real estate sales and expenses, including tax rates, 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, particularly in the southeastern U.S.; the ability of the Company to identify and complete timberland 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, April 26 at 4:15 p.m. EDT to discuss these results. Interested parties are invited to listen to the live webcast by logging onto www.rayonier.com and following the link. Supplemental materials will be available at the website. A replay will be available on the site shortly after the call where it will be archived for one month. Also, investors may access the “listen only” conference call by dialing 913-981-5584.
