FEDERAL WAY, Wash.–(CRWENewswire April 29, 2011)– Weyerhaeuser Company (NYSE:WY) today reported net earnings of $99 million for the first quarter, or 18 cents per diluted share, on net sales of $1.6 billion. This compares with a net loss of $20 million on net sales of $1.4 billion for the same period last year.

Earnings for the first quarter of 2011 include an after-tax gain of $96 million on the previously announced sale of 82,000 acres of non-strategic timberlands in southwest Washington. Excluding this special item, the company reported net earnings of $3 million. This compares to a net loss before special items of $15 million in the first quarter of 2010.

“During the first quarter we continued to make progress in our drive to improve our financial performance despite anemic housing market conditions,” said Dan Fulton, president and chief executive officer. “We are leveraging our strength in the export markets to take advantage of increased demand from Asia. Our businesses are running more efficiently and our work to eliminate costs continues. We remain focused on making further improvements to achieve our goal of delivering superior returns.”

WEYERHAEUSER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (millions, except per share data)
1Q 2011
4Q 2010
1Q 2010
Net sales $1,578 $1,664 $1,419
Net earnings (loss) $99 $171 ($20)
Weighted average shares outstanding, diluted 540 538 211
Earnings (loss) per diluted share $0.18 $0.32 ($0.10)
Net earnings (loss) before special items $3 $52 ($15)
Earnings (loss) per diluted share before special items $0.00 $0.10 ($0.07)

Weyerhaeuser’s outstanding shares increased substantially from the first quarter of 2010 due to a special dividend of approximately 324 million shares of common stock and $560 million in cash, paid on Sept. 1, 2010 in conjunction with the company’s conversion to a REIT.

TIMBERLANDS

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (millions) 1Q 2011 4Q 2010 Change
Net sales $230 $207 $23
Contribution to pre-tax earnings before special items $89 $56 $33
Pre-tax gain from special items $152 $0 $152
GAAP contribution to pre-tax earnings $241 $56 $185

1Q 2011 Performance – First quarter earnings before special items increased $33 million compared with fourth quarter, as strong export demand resulted in improved selling prices and volumes for western logs. Fee harvest volumes increased, resulting in lower per unit logging costs. These improvements were partially offset by higher fuel costs.

First quarter results include a pre-tax gain of $152 million from the previously announced sale of 82,000 acres of non-strategic timberlands located in southwest Washington.

2Q 2011 Outlook – Excluding the disposition of non-strategic timberlands, Weyerhaeuser expects slightly higher earnings in the second quarter compared with the first. The company anticipates modestly improved selling prices for western logs and higher harvest volumes to be largely offset by higher fuel expenses and seasonally higher road and silviculture costs.

WOOD PRODUCTS

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (millions) 1Q 2011 4Q 2010 Change
Net sales $624 $572 $52
Charge to pre-tax earnings before special items ($36) ($85) $49
Pre-tax gains (charges) from special items $0 ($103) $103
GAAP charge to pre-tax earnings ($36) ($188) $152

1Q 2011 Performance –The segment’s results before special items improved $49 million compared with the fourth quarter. Selling prices increased across most product lines. Per unit manufacturing costs declined due to continued cost reductions and improved operating rates for lumber and oriented strand board. This was partially offset by increased log costs.

Fourth quarter included special items of $103 million for asset impairments, closures and restructuring.

2Q 2011 Outlook – Weyerhaeuser anticipates a smaller loss from the segment in the second quarter due to seasonally higher sales volumes and improved operating rates.

CELLULOSE FIBERS

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (millions) 1Q 2011 4Q 2010 Change
Net sales $506 $511 ($5)
Contribution to pre-tax earnings before special items $86 $138 ($52)
Pre-tax gains (charges) from special items $0 $0 $0
GAAP contribution to pre-tax earnings $86 $138 ($52)

1Q 2011 Performance – First quarter earnings declined $52 million compared with fourth quarter. Average selling prices for pulp were slightly lower. Maintenance costs increased and production declined as the segment completed two planned annual maintenance outages in the first quarter, compared with one in the fourth quarter. Chemical, energy and fiber costs also increased.

2Q 2011 Outlook – Weyerhaeuser expects higher earnings from the Cellulose Fibers segment in the second quarter. The company anticipates higher selling prices, partially offset by increased maintenance costs due to an increase in the number of scheduled annual maintenance outages.

REAL ESTATE

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (millions) 1Q 2011 4Q 2010 Change
Net sales $160 $305 ($145)
Contribution (charge) to pre-tax earnings before special items ($1) $33 ($34)
Pre-tax charges from special items $0 ($20) $20
GAAP contribution (charge) to pre-tax earnings ($1) $13 ($14)

1Q 2011 Performance – Earnings before special items declined $34 million compared with the fourth quarter due to seasonally fewer home sale closings and lower margins. Home sale closings decreased 40 percent compared with the fourth quarter to 363 single-family homes. Margins on homes closed declined due to mix.

First quarter earnings included $1 million from the sale of land and lots, compared with $6 million from sale of land, lots and apartments in the fourth quarter.

Fourth quarter included special items of $20 million for asset impairments and restructuring.

2Q 2011 Outlook – Weyerhaeuser anticipates a small profit from single-family homebuilding operations in the second quarter due to a seasonal increase in home sale closings.

CORPORATE AND OTHER

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (millions) 1Q 2011 4Q 2010 Change
Contribution (charge) to pre-tax earnings before special items ($41) $2 ($43)
Pre-tax gains from special items $0 $39 ($39)
GAAP contribution (charge) to pre-tax earnings ($41) $41 ($82)

Earnings before special items declined $43 million compared with the fourth quarter, primarily due to non-cash pension and postretirement charges and higher share-based compensation expense.

First quarter segment results included pension and postretirement charges of $12 million, as the company amortized actuarial losses deferred in prior years. Fourth quarter included pension and postretirement credits of $19 million.

Share-based compensation expense for the segment increased $8 million compared with the fourth quarter, primarily due to a larger mark-to-market adjustment resulting from an increase in the company’s stock price.

Fourth quarter special items of $39 million included a gain on the sale of five short line railroads, partially offset by charges for restructuring, closures and impairments.
