- Recognized a net loss of $4.6
million, resulting primarily from fees and expenses related
to the pending merger with PotlatchDeltic Corporation.
- Produced Adjusted EBITDA of $13.7
million and $24.6 million in
total revenues.
- Captured blended net timber sales pricing 10% higher year
over year driven by a 21% increase in sawtimber pricing.
- Continued to generate significant premiums over
TimberMart-South South-wide pricing averages as a result of prime
timberlands located in strong local markets.
- Generated $8.8 million in
timberland sales, accelerating timing of full-year plan.
- Acquired 1,300 acres of prime timberlands located in
southeast Alabama for $2.2 million.
ATLANTA, Aug. 4, 2022
/PRNewswire/ -- CatchMark Timber Trust, Inc. (NYSE:
CTT) today reported second quarter 2022 results.
Brian M. Davis, CatchMark's
President and CEO, said: "Second quarter results were in line with
our business plan. They reflect planned lower harvest volumes in
the U.S. South, partially offset by higher timber sales pricing,
and last year's Bandon disposition in the Pacific Northwest as well
as lower asset management fees due to last year's Triple T exit.
Net loss was attributable to fees and expenses related to the
pending PotlatchDeltic merger. We continued to achieve pricing
premiums across our prime U.S. South timberlands as compared to
market averages, in particular generating strong sawtimber pricing.
Year over year, we also completed more timberland sales as planned.
Net cash from operating activities and cash available for
distribution comfortably covered our quarterly dividend."
The timing of the declaration of a third quarter CatchMark
dividend and its payment date will depend on the timing of the
closing of the merger with PotlatchDeltic. The merger is expected
to close by the end of the third quarter.

- Timber sales revenue and Harvest EBITDA were each 27% lower
year over year as a result of lower harvest volumes.
- Overall harvest volumes were down 24% year over year due to
planned reduced harvests in the U.S. South and the 2021 sale of the
Bandon timberlands in the Pacific Northwest.
- In the U.S. South, where CatchMark now operates exclusively,
timber sales revenue of $14.7 million
was 10% lower year over year due to a planned 19% decrease in
harvest volumes, offset by 10% increase in blended net timber sales
pricing year over year.
- Sawtimber pricing increased 21% year over year while pulpwood
pricing was down 5%.
- Harvests from CatchMark's prime timberlands located exclusively
in leading mill markets across the U.S. South continued to generate
significant pricing premiums over TimberMart-South South-wide
averages during the second quarter.
- Sawtimber mix, as a percentage of total volume, increased to
41% from 39% year over year.

Timberland Sales
- Timberland sales revenue increased 16% year over year due to
selling 1,400 more acres in second quarter 2022 than in second
quarter 2021, meeting plan targets.
- Real Estate EBITDA increased 18% as a result of higher
timberland sales revenue.
- Timberland sales price per acre at $1,564 was 10% lower than the $1,743 per-acre price achieved in second quarter
2021 due to lower productivity characteristics in the acres sold,
including a significantly lower percentage of pine
plantations.
- The margin on timberland sales increased year over year to 27%
despite the lower sales price per acre.
- Acres sold in the current quarter had a significantly lower
average merchantable timber stocking than the CatchMark portfolio
average of 39 tons per acre at the beginning of the year.
- CatchMark made no large dispositions during the quarter as the
company's capital recycling program ended in 2021.
Timberland Acquisitions
- CatchMark acquired the Big Island timberlands, comprising
approximately 1,300 high-quality acres located in Barbour County, AL for $2.2 million, or $1,653 per acre. The acquired timberlands have a
site index of 70 and comprise 82% pine plantations. The timberlands
are located within a primary haul zone near existing CatchMark mill
markets.
- During the quarter, CatchMark also agreed to acquire 870 acres
in Georgia for a total of
$2.0 million. This transaction is
expected to close in the third quarter.

- The significant decreases in year-over-year asset management
fee revenue, down 97%, and Investment Management EBITDA, down 87%,
were due to last year's Triple T exit and the expiration of the
related transition services agreement on March 31, 2022.
- Incentive-based promotes and joint venture income continued to
be generated from Dawsonville Bluffs as the joint venture continued
to capitalize on strong demand for wetlands mitigation
credits.
- During the quarter, CatchMark recognized $0.3 million of income, $0.4 million of Adjusted EBITDA and received a
$0.3 million cash distribution from
Dawsonville Bluffs. After quarter's close, CatchMark received an
additional $0.5 million cash
distribution from the joint venture.
Capital Position and Share Repurchases
CatchMark maintained its strong balance sheet and ample
liquidity during the quarter.
- As of June 30, 2022, the company
had $33.7 million of cash on hand and
$253.6 million of borrowing capacity
remaining under its credit facilities. There were no changes to its
credit facilities during the quarter.
- Interest expense decreased $0.6
million year over year to $2.8
million, primarily due to a 32% lower weighted-average debt
outstanding balance, offset by higher weighted-average interest
rates, which the company has effectively hedged against through its
interest rate management program.
Covered Quarterly Dividend: Stockholders
received a total of $3.6 million in
dividend distributions, which were fully covered by net cash
provided by operating activities and Cash Available for
Distribution.
Share Repurchases: The company did not make
any share repurchases during the quarter and had $13.7 million remaining under its share
repurchase program as of June 30,
2022.
Conference Call
Due to the company's pending merger
with PotlatchDeltic Corporation, a second quarter 2022 earnings
call will not be held.

inventory, with a sawtimber mix of 45% and 32%, respectively. For
the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we retained 50,000

mix of 58% and 36%, respectively.

Large dispositions are
sales of blocks of timberland properties in one or several
transactions with the objective to generate proceeds to fund
capital allocation priorities. Large dispositions may or may not
have a higher or better use than timber production or result in a
price premium above the land's timber production value. Such
dispositions are infrequent in nature, are not part of core
operations, and would cause material variances in comparative
results if not reported separately.

interest expense, land rent expense, or other operating expenses in
the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Includes
non-cash basis of timber and timberland assets written-off related
to timberland sold, terminations of timberland leases and casualty
losses.
|
(2)
|
Reflects our share of
depletion, amortization, and basis of timberland and mitigation
credits sold of the unconsolidated Dawsonville Bluffs joint
venture.
|
(3)
|
Includes non-cash basis
of timber and timberland assets written-off related to timberland
sold, terminations of timberland leases and casualty

|
Large dispositions are
sales of blocks of timberland properties in one or several
transactions with the objective to generate proceeds to fund
capital allocation priorities. Large dispositions may or may not
have a higher or better use than timber production or result in a
price premium above the land's timber production value. Such
dispositions are infrequent in nature, are not part of core
operations, and would cause material variances in comparative
results if not reported separately.
|
(5)
|
Reflects merger-related
legal fees, consulting fees and other professional fees required to
be expensed by GAAP that management believes do not directly
reflect the core business operations of our timberland portfolio on
an on-going basis.
|
(6)
|
Reflects one-time,
non-recurring post-employment benefits associated with the
retirement of our former CEO, including severance pay, payroll
taxes, professional fees, and accrued dividend
equivalents.
|
(7)
|
Includes certain cash
expenses paid, or reimbursement received, that management believes
do not directly reflect the core business operations of our
timberland portfolio on an on-going basis, including costs required
to be expensed by GAAP related to acquisitions, transactions, joint
ventures or new business initiatives.
|

Adjusted EBITDA is a
non-GAAP financial measure of operating performance. EBITDA is
defined by the SEC as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortization; however, we have excluded certain other expenses
which we believe are not indicative of the ongoing operating
results of our timberland portfolio, and we refer to this measure
as Adjusted EBITDA. As such, our Adjusted EBITDA may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other
companies. Due to the significant amount of timber assets subject
to depletion, significant income (losses) from unconsolidated joint
ventures based on hypothetical liquidation book value, or HLBV, and
the significant amount of financing subject to interest and
amortization expense, management considers Adjusted EBITDA to be an
important measure of our financial performance. By providing this
non-GAAP financial measure, together with the reconciliation above,
we believe we are enhancing investors' understanding of our
business and our ongoing results of operations, as well as
assisting investors in evaluating how well we are executing our
strategic initiatives. Items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are
significant components in understanding and assessing financial
performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of operating
performance that does not represent and should not be considered in
isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for net income,
cash flow from operations, or other financial statement data
presented in accordance with GAAP in our consolidated financial
statements as indicators of our operating performance. Adjusted
EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our
results as reported under GAAP.

Distribution (CAD) is a non-GAAP financial measure. It is
calculated as cash provided by operating activities, adjusted for
capital expenditures (excluding timberland acquisitions), working
capital changes, cash distributions from unconsolidated joint
ventures and certain cash expenditures that management believes do
not directly reflect the core business operations of our timberland
portfolio on an on-going basis, including costs required to be
expensed by GAAP related to acquisitions, transactions, joint
ventures or new business activities.
