BUSINESS SEGMENTS

NOTE 2: BUSINESS SEGMENTS

We are principally engaged in growing and harvesting timber; manufacturing, distributing and selling products made from trees; maximizing the value of every acre we own through the sale of higher and better use (HBU) properties; and monetizing the value of surface and subsurface assets through leases and royalties. Our business segments are categorized based primarily on products and services which include:

● Timberlands – Logs, timber, recreational leases and other products;

● Real Estate, Energy and Natural Resources (Real Estate & ENR) – Real Estate (sales of timberlands) and ENR (rights to explore for and extract hard minerals, construction materials, natural gas, and wind and solar resources) and

● Wood Products – Structural lumber, oriented strand board, engineered wood products and building materials distribution.

A reconciliation of our business segment information to the respective information in the Consolidated Statement of Operations is as follows:
