Excluding a special tax benefit of $41 million, the company reported net earnings of $214 million, or 28 cents per diluted share for the third quarter. This compares with net earnings before special items of $259 million for the same period last year and $332 million for the second quarter of 2018. Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter was $505 million compared with $569 million for the third quarter of last year and $637 million for the second quarter of 2018.

"In the third quarter, our business delivered solid operating performance despite significant headwinds from severe weather, trade policy and unusually volatile wood products markets," said Doyle R. Simons, president and chief executive officer. "During the quarter we demonstrated our ongoing commitment to disciplined capital allocation by increasing our quarterly dividend six percent, repurchasing $290 million of common shares, and announcing actions to reduce our pension liabilities. Going forward, we remain relentlessly focused on driving value for shareholders through industry-leading performance and disciplined capital allocation."

(1)

Second quarter 2018 special items include $15 million of net after-tax charges for product remediation. Third quarter 2018 after-tax special items include a $41 million tax benefit related to the previously announced $300 million contribution to our U.S. qualified pension plan. Third quarter 2017 after-tax special items include a $118 million charge for product remediation, $4 million for countervailing and antidumping duties on Canadian softwood lumber the company sold into the United States, $4 million for restructuring, impairments, and other charges, and $3 million for Plum Creek merger-related costs. Beginning first quarter 2018, countervailing and antidumping duties are no longer reported as a special item.



(2)

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that management uses to evaluate the performance of the company. Adjusted EBITDA, as we define it, is operating income, adjusted for depreciation, depletion, amortization, basis of real estate sold, unallocated pension service costs and special items. Adjusted EBITDA excludes results from joint ventures. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from and is not intended to represent an alternative to our GAAP results. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP earnings is included within this release.

3Q 2018 Performance - In the West, average sales realizations for domestic and Chinese export logs declined, domestic and export log sales volumes decreased, and road and unit logging costs increased seasonally. In the South, slightly higher average sales realizations were more than offset by moderately lower sales volumes due to weather, increased unit logging costs and seasonally higher forestry spending.

4Q 2018 Outlook - Weyerhaeuser expects fourth quarter earnings and Adjusted EBITDA will be lower than the third quarter. In the West, the company anticipates lower average sales realizations, partially offset by moderately higher export log sales volumes. In the South, the company anticipates slightly higher fee harvest volumes and comparable average log sales realizations.

3Q 2018 Performance - Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA increased compared to the second quarter due to seasonally higher real estate sales and a large acre transaction in Montana which accounted for approximately half of the acres sold in the third quarter. Average land basis increased modestly due to the mix of properties sold.

4Q 2018 Outlook - Weyerhaeuser anticipates fourth quarter earnings and Adjusted EBITDA will be comparable to the third quarter. The company expects full year 2018 Adjusted EBITDA for the segment will be approximately $260 million.

3Q 2018 Performance - Average sales realizations for lumber declined nine percent and average sales realizations for oriented strand board were 13 percent lower compared to the second quarter. Operating rates and sales volumes declined and unit manufacturing costs increased, primarily due to mill downtime related to severe weather in the U.S. South and a scheduled press replacement at our Grayling, Michigan oriented strand board mill. Canadian log costs also increased.

4Q 2018 Outlook - Weyerhaeuser anticipates fourth quarter earnings and Adjusted EBITDA will be significantly lower than the third quarter. Based on current pricing, the company anticipates average sales realizations for lumber and oriented strand board will be substantially lower than third quarter averages. This will be partially offset by lower Western and Canadian log costs, improved unit manufacturing costs for lumber, and higher sales volumes for oriented strand board due to completion of the Grayling press replacement.
