Insights

The reported net loss of PotlatchDeltic Corporation for Q4 2023 contrasts sharply with the net income from the same quarter of the previous year. This shift from profit to a marginal loss indicates a potential tightening of margins or increased costs that could concern investors. The company's full-year net income for 2023 also shows a significant decline from 2022, which could reflect broader market challenges or company-specific issues.

Adjusted EBITDDA margins provide insight into operational efficiency, with a decrease from Q3 to Q4 2023 suggesting a possible contraction in profitability. The repurchase of shares indicates management's confidence in the company's intrinsic value, while the announced sale of timberlands at a premium suggests strategic asset optimization. However, the real estate segment's increased EBITDDA highlights a successful capitalization of high-value opportunities, which may partially offset concerns arising from other segments.

Operational milestones in Timberlands and Wood Products, such as record harvest volumes and lumber shipments, signal strong operational capabilities, even amid challenging market conditions. These achievements may provide a competitive edge and bolster investor confidence in the company's ability to navigate market fluctuations.

The real estate segment's performance, with significant value generated from the CatchMark timberlands, showcases effective asset management and could be a key driver of future growth. The company's liquidity position and capital allocation strategy, including share repurchases and dividends, reflect a balanced approach to shareholder returns and investment in growth.

The broader macroeconomic environment, including interest rates and housing affordability, is a critical factor for PotlatchDeltic's business model, especially considering its impact on the housing market. The company's positive outlook on long-term housing-related fundamentals suggests an anticipation of market recovery. However, the short-term headwinds could continue to put pressure on the company's financials.

The sale of young timberlands at a significant premium may indicate a strategic move to capitalize on current market valuations and strengthen the balance sheet. This transaction, expected to close in 2024, could enhance the company's financial flexibility and support its growth initiatives amid uncertain economic conditions.

SPOKANE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- PotlatchDeltic Corporation (Nasdaq: PCH) today reported a net loss of $0.1 million, or $0.00 per diluted share, on revenues of $254.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. Net income was $3.8 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, on revenues of $253.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. Excluding after tax special items consisting of CatchMark merger-related expenses and an environmental charge, adjusted net income was $9.3 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2022.

Net income for the full year 2023 was $62.1 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, on revenues of $1.0 billion. Excluding after tax special items consisting of a gain on insurance recoveries and CatchMark merger-related expenses, adjusted net income was $35.0 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, for 2023. Net income for the full year 2022 was $333.9 million, or $4.58 per diluted share, on revenues of $1.3 billion. Excluding after tax special items consisting of gain on insurance recoveries, CatchMark merger-related expenses, a pension settlement charge, and an environmental charge, adjusted net income was $350.0 million, or $4.80 per diluted share, for 2022.

2023 Highlights

  • Generated Total Adjusted EBITDDA of $200.2 million and Total Adjusted EBITDDA margin of 20%
  • Timberlands set an annual harvest volume record of 7.7 million tons
  • Wood Products set an annual shipment record of 1.1 billion board feet of lumber
  • Real Estate capitalized on higher value opportunities on acquired CatchMark timberlands
  • On track to complete our expansion and modernization of Waldo, Arkansas sawmill in 2024
  • Repurchased 556,000 shares for $25 million, or $45 per share
  • Maintained strong liquidity position of $529 million as of December 31, 2023

“Each of our business segments delivered solid operational and financial results in 2023,” said Eric Cremers, president and chief executive officer. “Our Timberlands and Wood Products businesses each achieved operational milestones amongst the backdrop of challenging market conditions, while our Real Estate segment generated significant value from the stratification of our CatchMark timberlands. Additionally, we returned $169 million to shareholders in 2023 through $144 million in quarterly dividends and $25 million of share repurchases. Looking forward to 2024, we recently entered into an agreement with Forest Investment Associates to sell approximately 34,000 acres of four-year average age Southern timberlands for approximately $58 million, or $1,700 an acre. The sale price is at a significant premium to our underlying timberland value and is non-dilutive given the young nature of these timberlands. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the second quarter of 2024. Proceeds from this sale will further enhance our strong liquidity position and provide additional flexibility for our disciplined and opportunistic capital allocation strategy to continue to enhance shareholder value,” stated Mr. Cremers.

Outlook

“While interest rates have recently moderated, housing affordability and the macroeconomic environment continue to remain a headwind for the broader housing market. Nonetheless, we maintain a very positive outlook on long-term housing-related fundamentals that drive growth in our business. During 2024, we expect to harvest 7.6 million tons in our Timberlands segment, ship 1.1 billion board feet of lumber in our Wood Products segment and sell about 51,000 rural acres, including the sale of approximately 34,000 acres in the South to Forest Investment Associates, and 130 residential lots in our Real Estate segment,” stated Mr. Cremers.

Non-GAAP Measures

This press release includes certain financial measures that are not in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). Management believes that these non-GAAP measures, when read in conjunction with our GAAP financial statements, provide useful information to investors and other interested parties as described below. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered only as supplemental to, are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as or comparable to other similarly titled non-GAAP measures presented by other companies due to potential inconsistencies in methods of calculation.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Diluted Share are non-GAAP measures that represent GAAP net income and GAAP net income per diluted share before certain items, net of tax, that management believes impact the ability to compare the performance of our business, either period-over-period or with other businesses.

Total Adjusted EBITDDA and Total Adjusted EBITDDA Margin are non-GAAP measures that remove the impact of specific items that management believes do not directly reflect the core business operations on an ongoing basis and can be used to evaluate the operational performance of assets under management.

We define Total Adjusted EBITDDA Margin as Total Adjusted EBITDDA divided by Revenues.

Reconciliations of Total Adjusted EBITDDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Diluted Share to their most comparable GAAP measures are set forth in the accompanying “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” at the end of this release.
