(1)	Net earnings before special items is a non-GAAP measure that management believes provides helpful context in understanding the company's earnings performance. Additionally, 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 and special items. Net earnings before special items and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from, and are not intended to represent an alternative to, our GAAP results. Reconciliations of net earnings before special items and Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP earnings are included within this release.
(2)	Special items for prior periods presented are included in the reconciliation tables within this release.
(3)	Adjusted Funds Available for Distribution (Adjusted FAD) is a non-GAAP measure that management uses to evaluate the company's liquidity. Adjusted FAD, as we define it, is net cash from operations adjusted for capital expenditures and significant non-recurring items. Adjusted FAD measures cash generated during the period (net of capital expenditures and significant non-recurring items) that is available for dividends, repurchases of common shares, debt reduction, acquisitions, and other discretionary and nondiscretionary capital allocation activities. Adjusted FAD should not be considered in isolation from, and is not intended to represent an alternative to, our GAAP results. A reconciliation of Adjusted FAD to net cash from operations is included within this release.

Q3 2023 Performance – In the West, fee harvest and domestic sales volumes were moderately lower than the second quarter as a result of higher elevation harvest operations and temporary harvest restrictions due to wildfire risk. Export sales volumes were significantly lower, which was partially driven by fewer export shipments to Japan. Sales realizations were slightly lower, partially driven by a reduction in export volumes, while domestic sales realizations were comparable. Per unit log and haul costs were lower. In the South, fee harvest volumes were moderately lower, partly due to wet conditions early in the quarter. Sales realizations were slightly lower, and per unit log and haul costs were comparable. Forestry and road costs in the West and South were seasonally higher.

Q4 2023 Outlook – Weyerhaeuser anticipates fourth quarter earnings and Adjusted EBITDA will be comparable to the third quarter. In the West, the company expects fee harvest volumes, sales realizations and forestry and road costs to be comparable. Per unit log and haul costs are expected to be moderately higher. In the South, the company expects fee harvest volumes, sales realizations and per unit log and haul costs to be comparable to the third quarter. Forestry and road costs are expected to be moderately lower.

Q3 2023 Performance – Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA increased from the second quarter due to higher real estate sales. The number of acres sold increased significantly due to the timing of transactions. The average price per acre was significantly lower and the average basis as a percentage of sales was significantly higher due to the mix of properties sold.

Q4 2023 Outlook – Weyerhaeuser anticipates fourth quarter earnings and Adjusted EBITDA will be lower than the third quarter due to the timing and mix of real estate sales. The company now expects full year 2023 Adjusted EBITDA to be approximately $310 million, a $10 million increase from prior outlook, and continues to expect basis as a percentage of real estate sales to be 35 to 40 percent for the full year.

Q3 2023 Performance – Sales realizations for lumber were comparable to the second quarter average, while sales realizations for oriented strand board increased 39 percent. Sales volumes for lumber were slightly lower due to reduced production at several mills, partially driven by temporary operational disruptions. Unit manufacturing costs were comparable and log costs were moderately lower. For oriented strand board, sales volumes were moderately lower and unit manufacturing costs were slightly higher due to planned downtime for annual maintenance. Sales realizations were slightly lower for most engineered wood products, while sales volumes were slightly higher, primarily for solid section products. Unit manufacturing costs were slightly higher and raw material costs were higher, primarily for oriented strand board webstock.

Q4 2023 Outlook – Weyerhaeuser anticipates fourth quarter earnings and Adjusted EBITDA will be moderately lower than the third quarter, excluding the effect of changes in average sales realizations for lumber and oriented strand board. For lumber, the company expects moderately higher sales volumes, comparable log costs, and slightly lower unit manufacturing costs. For oriented strand board, the company anticipates moderately higher sales volumes, slightly higher fiber costs, and slightly lower unit manufacturing costs. For engineered wood products, the company expects lower sales realizations, slightly higher raw material costs, and slightly lower sales volumes, primarily for solid section products. For distribution, the company anticipates lower results compared to the third quarter, primarily driven by a decrease in commodity realizations.

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 and special items. Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from, and is not intended to represent an alternative to, our GAAP results.
