NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS FOR PRESENTATION

Nature of Operations

Louisiana-Pacific Corporation and our subsidiaries are a leading provider of high-performance building solutions that meet the demands of builders, remodelers, and homeowners worldwide. Serving the new home construction, repair and remodeling, and outdoor structures markets, we have leveraged our expertise to become an industry leader known for innovation, quality, reliability, and sustainability. The principal customers for our building solutions are retailers, wholesalers, and home building and industrial businesses in North America and South America, and we make limited sales to customers in Asia, Australia, and Europe. The Company operates 22 plants across the U.S., Canada, Chile, and Brazil, in certain cases through foreign subsidiaries. References to "LP," the "Company," "we," "our," and "us" refer to Louisiana-Pacific Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries as a whole.

See "Note 15 - Selected Segment Data" below for further information regarding our products and segments.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal and recurring nature. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes should be read in conjunction with our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on February 14, 2024 (2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K). Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for an entire year.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of LP and our controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions, profits, and balances have been eliminated. All dollar amounts included in tables in the Notes are in millions except per share amounts.

NOTE 2. REVENUE

We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into major product lines. We have determined that disaggregating revenue into these categories depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

As noted in the segment reporting information in “Note 15 - Selected Segment Data” below, our reportable segments are Siding, Oriented Strand Board (OSB), and LP South America (LPSA). The following tables present our reportable segment revenues, disaggregated by revenue source (dollar amounts in millions):

Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract(e.g., purchase orders) with our customers are satisfied; generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of our products at a point in time. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods. The shipping cost incurred by us to deliver products to our customers is recorded in cost of sales. The expected costs associated with our warranties continue to be recognized as an expense when the products are sold.

Our businesses routinely incur customer program costs to obtain favorable product placement, promote sales of products, and maintain competitive pricing. Customer program costs and incentives, including rebates and promotion and volume allowances, are accounted for as a reduction in net sales at the time the program is initiated and/or the revenue is recognized. The costs include, but are not limited to, volume allowances and rebates, promotional allowances, and cooperative advertising programs. These costs are recorded at the later of (i) the time of sale or (ii) the implementation of the program based on management’s best estimates. Estimates are based on historical and projected experience for each type of program or customer. Volume allowances are accrued based on our estimates of customer volume achievement and other factors incorporated into customer agreements, such as new product purchases, store sell-through, merchandising support, and customer training. Management adjusts accruals when circumstances indicate (typically as a result of a change in volume expectations).

We ship some of our products to customers’ distribution centers on a consignment basis. We retain title to our products stored at the distribution centers. As our products are removed from the distribution centers by retailers and shipped to retailers’ stores, title passes from us to the retailers. At that time, we invoice the retailers and recognize revenue for these consignment transactions. We do not offer a right of return for products shipped to the retailers’ stores from the distribution centers.

NOTE 3. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is based upon the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding, plus all potentially dilutive securities that were assumed to be converted into common shares at the beginning of the period under the treasury stock method. This method requires that the effect of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents (stock options, stock-settled appreciation rights, restricted stock units, and performance stock units) be excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the periods in which losses are reported because the effect is anti-dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (dollar and share amounts in millions, except per share amounts):

NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. We are required to classify these financial assets and liabilities into two groups: (i) recurring—measured on a periodic basis, and (ii) non-recurring—measured on an as-needed basis.

The net carrying value of the 3.625% Senior Notes due in 2029 (2029 Senior Notes) was $347 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Based on market quotations, the fair value of the 2029 Senior Notes was estimated to be $319 million and $314 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The 2029 Senior Notes and other long-term debt are categorized as Level 1 in the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy. Fair values are based on trading activity among the Company’s lenders and the average bid and ask price is determined using published rates.

In November 2022, LP entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with American AgCredit, PCA, as administrative agent and sole lead arranger, and CoBank, ACB, as letter of credit issuer (the Credit Agreement), relating to its revolving credit facility (as amended, the Amended Credit Facility). The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility in the principal amount of up to $550 million, with a $60 million sub-limit for letters of credit. All loans under the Credit Agreement become due on November 29, 2028. As of June 30, 2024, there wereno outstanding borrowings under our Amended Credit Facility.

Carrying amounts reported on the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these items.

NOTE 5. RECEIVABLES

Receivables consisted of the following (dollar amounts in millions):

Trade receivables are primarily generated by sales of our products to our wholesale and retail customers. Other receivables as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 primarily consist of sales tax receivables, vendor rebates, and other miscellaneous receivables.

NOTE 6. INVENTORIES

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory cost includes materials, labor, and operating overhead. The major types of inventories (work in process is not material and is included in semi-finished inventory) are as follows (dollar amounts in millions):

NOTE 7. BUSINESS EXIT CHARGES AND CREDITS

During the second quarter of 2023, we ceased the manufacturing operations of Entekra Holdings, LLC (Entekra), an off-site framing operation previously reported within our “Other” category, which comprises other products that are not individually significant. During the second quarter of 2024, the equity method investment held by Entekra sold substantially all of its net assets resulting in a $16 million distribution to LP and a gain of $11 million, which was recorded within equity in unconsolidated affiliate on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Business exit charges and credits consisted of the following (dollar amounts in millions):

1 Included within impairment of long-lived assets, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

2 Included within equity in unconsolidated affiliate on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

3 Included within cost of sales on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

4 Included within other operating credits and charges, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

NOTE 8. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized and are subject to assessment for impairment by applying a fair value-based test on an annual basis, or more frequently if circumstances indicate a potential impairment. The Company’s annual assessment date is October 1.

Changes in goodwill and other intangible assets for the six months ended June 30, 2024 are provided in the following table (dollar amounts in millions):

1 Timber licenses are included in Timber and timberlands on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 9. INCOME TAXES

For interim periods, we recognize income tax expense by applying the estimated annual effective income tax rate to year-to-date results unless this method does not result in a reliable estimate of year-to-date income tax expense. Each period, the income tax accrual is adjusted to the latest estimate and the difference from the previously accrued year-to-date balance is adjusted in the current quarter. Changes in profitability estimates in various jurisdictions will impact our quarterly effective income tax rates.

The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 reflected an estimated annual effective tax rate of 25% and 34%, respectively, excluding discrete items discussed below. The total tax provision for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $53 million and $94 million, respectively, compared to $21 million and $22 million for the comparable periods in 2023, respectively. The total effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was 26%, compared to 95% for the comparable period in 2023. The year-over-year decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily a result of a discrete tax expense of $22 million recorded in the quarter ended June 30, 2023 relating to the change in indefinite reinvestment assertion on Chile and Brazil earnings.

We recognized net discrete tax expenses of $4 million and $15 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The net discrete tax expense in the current year primarily relates to inflationary tax adjustments in certain South American entities while the net discrete tax expense in the prior year primarily relates to the change in management’s indefinite reinvestment assertion in the second quarter described in "Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

In 2021 the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) announced an Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting including Pillar Two Model Rules defining the global minimum tax, which establishes a global minimum effective tax rate of 15% for multinational enterprise groups with annual global revenue exceeding 750 million Euros. On June 20, 2024, the Canadian government enacted legislation implementing aspects of the OECD’s minimum tax rules under the Pillar Two Framework, effective in 2024; however, proposed legislation related to other aspects of the framework has not yet been released by the Canadian government, but is expected in the future. We considered the new Canadian legislation as part of our second quarter 2024 tax provision and concluded that (i) it had no impact on our consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and (ii) we expect there to be no impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ending December 31, 2024. No other jurisdictions in which LP operates have enacted Pillar Two legislation at this time. The Company is continuously monitoring the expanding adoptions of Pillar Two legislation and assessing its potential impact on our future tax liability.

NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We maintain reserves for various contingent liabilities as follows (dollar amounts in millions):

Estimates of our loss contingencies are based on various assumptions and judgments. Due to the numerous uncertainties and variables associated with these assumptions and judgments, both the precision and reliability of the resulting estimates of the related contingencies are subject to substantial uncertainties. We regularly monitor our estimated exposure to contingencies and, as additional information becomes known, may change our estimates significantly. While no estimate of the range of any such change can be made at this time, the amount that we may ultimately pay in connection with these matters could materially exceed, in either the near term or the longer term, the amounts accrued to date. Our estimates of our loss contingencies do not reflect potential future recoveries from insurance carriers except to the extent that recovery may, from time to time, be deemed probable as a result of an insurer’s agreement to payment terms.

Environmental Matters

We maintain a reserve for undiscounted estimated environmental loss contingencies. This reserve is primarily for estimated future costs of remediation of hazardous or toxic substances at numerous sites currently or previously owned by the Company. Our estimates of our environmental loss contingencies are based on various assumptions and judgments, the specific nature of which varies based on the particular facts and circumstances surrounding each environmental loss contingency. These estimates typically reflect assumptions and judgments as to the probable nature, magnitude, and timing of the required investigation, remediation, and/or monitoring activities and the probable cost of these activities, and in some cases, reflect assumptions and judgments as to the obligation or willingness and ability of third parties to bear a proportionate or allocated share of the cost of these activities. Due to the numerous uncertainties and variables associated with these assumptions and judgments, and the effects of changes in governmental regulation and environmental technologies, both the precision and reliability of the resulting estimates of the related contingencies are subject to substantial uncertainties. We regularly monitor our estimated exposure to environmental loss contingencies and, as additional information becomes known, may change our estimates significantly.

Other Proceedings

From time to time, we and our subsidiaries are parties to certain legal proceedings arising in our ordinary course of business. Based on the information currently available, management believes the resolution of such ongoing and future proceedings will not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows, or liquidity.

NOTE 11. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

We review the carrying values of our long-lived assets for potential impairments and believe we have adequate support for such carrying values. If demand and pricing for our products fall to levels significantly below cycle average demand and pricing, should we decide to invest capital in alternative projects, or should changes occur related to our wood supply for our mills, it is possible that future impairment charges will be required. As of June 30, 2024, there were no indications of impairment.

We also review from time to time potential dispositions of various assets, considering current and anticipated economic and industry conditions, our strategic plan, and other relevant factors. Because a determination to dispose of particular assets can require management to make assumptions regarding the transaction structure of the disposition and to estimate the net sales proceeds, which may be less than previous estimates of undiscounted future net cash flows, we may be required to record impairment charges in connection with decisions to dispose of assets.

NOTE 12. PRODUCT WARRANTIES

We offer warranties on the sale of most of our products and record an accrual for estimated future claims. Such accruals are based upon historical experience and management’s estimate of the level of future claims. The activity in warranty reserves for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, is summarized in the following table (dollar amounts in millions):

We continue to monitor warranty and other claims associated with our products and believe, as of June 30, 2024, that the warranty reserve balances associated with these matters are adequate to cover future warranty payments. However, it is possible that additional changes may be required in the future.

NOTE 13. ACCUMULATED COMPREHENSIVE LOSS

Accumulated comprehensive loss is provided in the following table for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (dollar amounts in millions):

Accumulated comprehensive loss is provided in the following table for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (dollar amounts in millions):

NOTE 15. SELECTED SEGMENT DATA

We operate inthree segments: Siding, OSB, and LPSA. Our business units have been aggregated into these three segments based upon the similarity of economic characteristics, customers, and distribution methods. Our results of operations are summarized below for each of these segments separately, as well as for the “Other” category, which comprises other products that are not individually significant.

•Our Siding segment serves diverse end markets with a broad product offering, including LP® SmartSide® Trim & Siding, LP® SmartSide® ExpertFinish® Trim & Siding, LP BuilderSeries® Lap Siding, and LP®Outdoor Building Solutions®(collectively referred to as Siding Solutions). Our Siding Solutions products consist of a full line of engineered wood siding, trim, soffit, and fascia.

We evaluate the performance of our business segments based on net sales and segment Adjusted EBITDA. Accordingly, our chief operating decision maker evaluates performance and allocates resources based primarily on net sales and segment Adjusted EBITDA for our business segments. Segment Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income attributed to LP before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and excludes stock-based compensation expense, loss on impairment attributed to LP, business exit charges and credits, product-line discontinuance charges, other operating credits and charges, net, loss on early debt extinguishment, investment income, pension settlement charges, and other non-operating items.
