Previous wording

Pricing in our timber segments is influenced by macroeconomic factors, including residential construction activity, and can also vary considerably on a local level based on weather, the available inventory of logs, mill demand, and export market access. In our Southern Timber segment, weather-related constraints on competing supply benefited first quarter harvest volumes and net stumpage realizations. In our Pacific Northwest Timber segment, weighted-average delivered log prices remain under pressure due to weaker domestic demand and reduced export market tension. In our New Zealand Timber segment, lower levels of construction activity in China continue to negatively impact export market demand and prices.

Current wording

Pricing in our timber segments is influenced by macroeconomic factors, including residential construction activity, and can also vary considerably on a local level based on weather, the available inventory of logs, mill demand, and export market access. In our Southern Timber segment, pine pulpwood net stumpage realizations have improved in the first half of the year due to improved demand, while pine sawtimber net stumpage realizations have been constrained by softer demand from lumber mills. In our Pacific Northwest Timber segment, weighted-average delivered log prices remain under pressure due to weaker domestic demand and reduced export market tension. In our New Zealand Timber segment, lower levels of construction activity in China continue to negatively impact export market demand and prices.
