“Our Timberlands and Real Estate businesses had strong operational performance during the quarter, offsetting weakness in Wood Products,” said Eric Cremers, President and CEO. “During the quarter our Timberlands business did an outstanding job and produced our highest quarterly harvest volume on record, and our Real Estate business experienced strong rural real estate sales activity, including a sizable conservation land sale in Alabama. As we head into the spring building season we are encouraged by the recent upward trend in lumber prices and we continue to remain optimistic on long-term housing-related fundamentals that drive demand in our business. Our strong balance sheet and commitment to a disciplined capital allocation strategy position us to continue to grow shareholder value," stated Mr. Cremers.
