Acadian Timber Corp. ("Acadian" or the "Company") (TSX:ADN) today reported financial and operating results1 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 (the "second quarter").
"Demand for spruce-fir sawlogs continues to be reasonably strong with most of Acadian's softwood sawmilling customers maintaining active operations", said Reid Carter, Chief Executive Officer of Acadian. "Markets for hardwood pulpwood are also reasonably strong with Acadian's major hardwood pulp customers all operating and actively competing for deliveries".
For the second quarter of 2012, Acadian generated net sales of $14.3 million on sales volume of 306 thousand m3, which represents a $2.5 million, or 22%, increase in net sales compared to the same period in 2011. Operating results for the period benefitted from sales carried over from the first quarter of 2012 under the short-term vender managed inventory ("VMI") program discussed in Acadian's First Quarter 2012 Interim Report.
Adjusted EBITDA of $2.2 million for the second quarter of 2012 was $1.6 million higher than in the second quarter of 2011, while Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 15% from 5% in the same period of last year.
For the six months ended June 30, 2012, Acadian generated net sales of $32.9 million on sales volume of 658 thousand m3 as compared to net sales of $33.5 million on sales volume of 669 thousand m3 in the comparable period of 2011. Adjusted EBITDA of $7.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012 is $0.9 million lower than the first half of 2011.
1 This news release makes reference to Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow which are key performance measures in evaluating Acadian's operations and are important in enhancing investors' understanding of Acadian's operating performance. Acadian's management defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, fair value adjustments, unrealized exchange gain/loss on debt, depreciation and amortization. As these performance measures do not have standardized meanings prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), they may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. As a result, we have provided in this news release reconciliations of net income, as determined in accordance with IFRS, to Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow.

Acadian traditionally experiences very low levels of operating, marketing and selling activity during the second quarter of each year owing to spring break-up which causes much of the infrastructure to be temporarily inoperable. However, results for the second quarter of 2012 benefitted from sales carried over from the first quarter under the aforementioned VMI program. As per the terms of this agreement, all purchase commitments were filled during the second quarter generating net sales of $3.9 million on a sales volume of 84 thousand m3 and Adjusted EBITDA of $1.7 million, slightly above the indication provided in the First Quarter 2012 Interim Report.

Softwood, hardwood and biomass shipments were 130 thousand m3, 94 thousand m3 and 46 thousand m3, respectively, for the second quarter of 2012. Approximately 39% was sold as sawlogs, 44% as pulpwood and 17% as biomass. This compares to 37% sold as sawlogs, 48% as pulpwood and 15% as biomass in the second quarter of 2011.
Net sales for the second quarter of 2012 were $12.4 million (2011 - $10.6 million) with an average selling price across all products of $46.45 per m3, which compares to an average selling price of $49.18 per m3 during the second quarter of 2011. This year-over-year decrease in the average selling price reflects a higher proportion of sales made to closer proximity markets. Approximately $3.9 million of the sales during the second quarter were the result of the completion of purchase commitments under the VMI. Net sales for the first six months ended June 30, 2012 were $25.5 million, a decrease of $3.0 million over the first half of 2011 primarily as a result of decreased sales volume.
Costs for the second quarter were $9.9 million (2011 - $9.5 million). Variable costs per m3 were 9% lower than the second quarter of 2011 due to decreased hauling costs as a greater proportion of sales were made to closer proximity markets.
Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter was $2.5 million, compared to $1.1 million in the comparable period of 2011 as NB Timberlands realized approximately $1.7 million in Adjusted EBITDA from the completion of purchase commitments under the VMI. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 20%, as compared to 11% for the second quarter of 2011, reflecting the effect of increased sales volume on fixed cost absorption.
NB Timberlands experienced no recordable safety incidents among contractors and one minor recordable incident involving an employee during the second quarter of 2012.

Softwood, hardwood and biomass shipments were 22 thousand m3, 9 thousand m3 and 4 thousand m3, respectively, for the second quarter of 2012. Approximately 52% was sold as sawlogs, 35% as pulpwood and 13% as biomass. This compares to 50% sold as sawlogs, 40% as pulpwood and 10% as biomass in the second quarter of 2011.
Net sales for the second quarter of 2012 were $1.9 million (2011 - $1.1 million) with an average selling price across all products of $49.90 per m3, comparable to the average selling price of $49.61 per m3 during the second quarter of 2011. Strategies implemented by Acadian have allowed for improved contractor availability which, together with favourable operating conditions, resulted in increased sales volume. Net sales for the first six months ended June 30, 2012 were $7.4 million, an increase of $2.4 million over the first half of 2011.
Costs for the second quarter were $1.9 million (2011 - $1.3 million). Variable costs per m3 increased 7% in Canadian dollar terms due to changes in contractor rates driven by increases in fuel costs and greater distances from the harvest site to mill delivery locations.
Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter was nil, compared to negative $0.1 million in the comparable period of 2011. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 0% in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to negative 13% during the second quarter of 2011.
We are pleased to report that during the second quarter of 2012, Maine Timberlands experienced no recordable safety incidents among employees or contractors.
Market Outlook
The following Market Outlook contains forward-looking statements about Acadian Timber Corp.'s market outlook for the remainder of fiscal 2012. Reference should be made to the "Forward-looking Statements" section of this news release. For a description of material factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in the following, please see the Risk Factors section of our management's discussion and analysis of Acadian's most recent Annual Report and Annual Information Form available on our website at www.acadiantimber.com or filed with SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
The U.S. housing market appears to be gradually gaining momentum. Milder than usual weather in the Northeast and Midwest during the seasonally slow winter months, modest gains in employment, increased household formations and resurgent demand for apartments has led to a significant improvement in new construction and sales during the first six months of 2012. Single-family starts are 20% ahead of their year-ago pace through June with multi-family starts up an impressive 45%. As well, the inventory of existing homes for sale declined by 20% year-over-year in June and home prices have firmed up. We believe the first half of 2012 has been a promising start to the recovery of the U.S. housing market, but we continue to expect this recovery to be gradual with normalization of home inventories and recovery of new home construction to trend levels not expected before 2014-2015.
Our outlook for the remainder of 2012 and into 2013 remains cautiously optimistic as demand for spruce-fir sawlogs continues to be reasonably strong with most of Acadian's softwood sawmilling customers maintaining active operations and markets for hardwood sawlogs remain stable and appear to have a similar outlook for the foreseeable future. Markets for hardwood pulpwood are also reasonably strong with Acadian's major hardwood pulp customers all operating and actively competing for deliveries suggesting prices will remain stable through the remainder of 2012. Softwood pulpwood markets, however, have become increasingly soft as there has been an ample supply of sawmill residuals and too little demand from regional pulp mills due to mill closures. This is particularly true in our New Brunswick operations where the provincial government has responded to the oversupply situation by allowing Crown licensees to leave softwood pulpwood in the woods as an interim solution until markets improve. We expect markets for softwood pulpwood will be very challenging through the summer and expect prices to continue to soften. However, this will not significantly affect Acadian's financial performance as softwood pulpwood typically accounts for only 7 - 8% of total sales and an even smaller proportion of cash flows.
Biomass markets continue to face significant market challenges. Cogeneration plants associated with manufacturing facilities are generally in good shape, but stand-alone wood-to-energy plants continue to suffer from depressed prices for electricity and decade-low prices for natural gas. Despite this challenging market environment, Acadian continues to be able to sell all of its biomass with a stable price outlook.
