PART I
Item 1. Business
INTRODUCTION AND DEVELOPMENTS IN 1994
Pope & Talbot, Inc. (the "Company") is engaged principally in the wood
products and pulp and paper products businesses. The Company's wood products
business involves the manufacture and sale of standardized and specialty lumber
and wood chips. In its pulp and paper business, the Company manufactures and
sells a full line of private label consumer tissue and disposable diaper
products, bleached kraft pulp for newsprint and writing paper, and brokers wood
chips. During 1994, wood products accounted for approximately 46 percent of
the Company's revenues, consumer tissue accounted for 16 percent, disposable
diapers 24 percent and bleached kraft pulp and brokered wood chips 14 percent.
The Company, a Delaware corporation, was originally incorporated as a
California corporation in 1940. It is the successor to a partnership formed in
San Francisco, California in 1849 that acquired its first timberlands and
opened a lumber mill in the Seattle, Washington area in 1853. Subsequently,
the Company developed a lumber business based on timberland and facilities in
the U.S. Pacific Northwest, British Columbia, Canada, and the Black Hills
region of South Dakota and Wyoming.
Since the mid-1980s, the Company has reduced its dependency on timber
from the Pacific Northwest, where environmental concerns about the preservation
of old-growth forests have sharply restricted the availability and increased
the cost of public timber. At the same time, the Company has increased its
operations in regions presently having more stable timber supplies,
particularly in British Columbia and the Black Hills region of South Dakota and
Wyoming. In 1985, the Company distributed its timber and land development
properties in the State of Washington to its shareholders through interests in
a newly formed master limited partnership. In 1989, the Company sold its
Oregon sawmill, and the Company has since sold its remaining Oregon
timberlands. In 1992, the Company acquired a 225 million board feet capacity
sawmill and related timber cutting rights in Castlegar, British Columbia. The
Company currently operates six sawmills with an estimated annual capacity of
726 million board feet, of which approximately 80% is located in British
Columbia and the Black Hills.
In order to expand and broaden its sources of revenue, the Company
acquired its pulp, consumer tissue and disposable diaper businesses in the late
1970s and 1980s. The Halsey, Oregon pulp mill produces bleached kraft pulp
which is sold in the open market and to newsprint manufacturers and a writing
paper manufacturer in the Pacific Northwest. The Company's private label
tissue business manufactures towels, napkins, bathroom tissue and facial tissue
from recycled paper at two mills in the U.S. Disposable diapers are produced
by the Company at four mills in the U.S. The Company sells its tissue and
diaper products under private labels to supermarkets, drugstores, mass
merchandisers and food and drug distribution companies. In 1992, the Company
commenced a program to reduce costs and improve operating efficiencies in these
businesses, resulting in the consolidation of one tissue mill and one diaper
plant. In early 1994, the Company completed projects resulting in significant
product and cost improvements to its pulp mill.
The businesses in which the Company is engaged are extremely
competitive, and a number of the Company's competitors are substantially larger
than the Company with correspondingly greater resources. In particular,
competition in the tissue products and disposable diaper markets is extremely
strong, both in terms of price and product innovation. See "Pulp and Paper
Products Business - Paper Products."
Environmental regulations to which the Company is subject require the
Company from time to time to incur significant operating costs and capital
expenditures. In addition, as discussed herein, environmental concerns have in
the past materially affected the availability
2
3
and cost of raw materials used in the Company's business. See "Wood Products
Business", "Pulp and Paper Products Business" and "Environmental Matters."
WOOD PRODUCTS BUSINESS
The Company's wood products business involves the manufacture and sale
of standardized and specialty lumber and wood chips. The Company's principal
wood product categories and the sales generated by each over the past three
years are set forth in the following table:
Classes of Wood Products 1994 1993 1992
------------------------ ---- ---- ----
(In thousands)
Lumber $261,322 $256,842 $176,544
Wood chips 30,284 29,695 26,376
Logs and other 12,599 13,498 11,247
-------- -------- --------
Total wood products sales $304,205 $300,035 $214,167
======== ======== ========
In 1994, lumber revenues increased $4.5 million, or 2 percent, compared
with 1993. These increased revenues were due to higher lumber sales prices
which more than offset the impact of lower sales volumes, primarily due to
downtime taken at the Port Gamble sawmill. In 1993, lumber revenues increased
$80.3 million, or 45 percent, compared with 1992. These increased revenues in
1993 were due mainly to higher lumber sales prices, but also to greater lumber
sales volumes resulting from operating the Castlegar, British Columbia sawmill,
which was purchased in the second quarter of 1992, throughout 1993.
The Company's lumber products consist principally of boards and
dimension lumber, some of which are specialty, value-added items, such as
stress-rated lumber. Wood chips and other similar materials are obtained as a
by-product of the Company's lumber operations. Wood chips were also obtained
from direct chipping of whole logs in 1993 and 1992.
The principal sources of raw material for the Company's wood products
operations are timber obtained through long-term cutting licenses on public
lands, logs purchased in open log markets, timber offered for sale via
competitive bidding by federal and state agencies and private sources, and
timber purchased under long-term contracts to cut timber on private lands.
Approximately 80% of the Company's current lumber capacity is located in
British Columbia, Canada and the Black Hills region of South Dakota and
Wyoming, where timber supplies are more stable than in the U.S. Pacific
Northwest. In Canada, timber requirements are obtained primarily from the
Provincial Government of British Columbia under long-term timber harvesting
licenses which allow the Company to remove timber from defined areas annually
on a sustained yield basis. Approximately 25 percent of the Company's Canadian
log requirements are satisfied through open market log purchases. In the Black
Hills, the Company obtains its timber from various public and private sources
under long-term timber harvesting contracts in addition to buying logs on open
markets. Under these licenses and contracts, prices are subject to periodic
adjustment based upon formulas set forth therein. Additionally, the Provincial
Government of British Columbia has the authority to modify prices and harvest
volumes at any time. During 1994, the Provincial Government of British
Columbia adjusted upward the price charged for a substantial portion of the
wood used by the Company's three Canadian sawmills effective May 1, 1994. The
new pricing formula, which is based on a relationship to end-product prices,
had the effect of increasing 1994 log costs by approximately $7 million.
Reduced timber harvest levels resulted in the January 1, 1995, curtailment of
the Grand Forks, British Columbia sawmill to a one-shift production basis.
This Grand Forks curtailment reduced lumber capacity by 60 million board feet
annually, or
3
4
approximately 8 percent of the Company's lumber capacity. The Provincial
Government of British Columbia's Commission of Resources and Environment
("CORE") is reviewing the future use of the forest resources in the province,
including reserving additional forest resources to park lands. The results of
these CORE reviews may affect the amount of timber available in the future and
could reduce the amount of timber available to the Company's Canadian sawmills
by 10 percent to 30 percent or more. Any ultimate reduction in allowable
timber harvests may result in further decreases in lumber production levels at
one or more of the Company's Canadian sawmills.
At Port Gamble, the Company obtains its timber primarily via competitive
bidding on timber offered by federal and state agencies and private sources and
from logs purchased in the open market. Decreased availability of federal
timber caused primarily by pressures from environmental groups to curtail
harvests from public lands, thereby protecting old-growth forests and wildlife
habitat, combined with strong export demand for logs, has resulted in reduced
wood supplies. This highly competitive log supply environment caused the
Company to reduce production at its Port Gamble sawmill to 58% of capacity in
1994.
Although no assurances can be given, subject to the results of the CORE
studies, the Company believes that timber supplies will be adequate to sustain
current lumber production levels at the Company's sawmills, with the exception
of Port Gamble which will continue to operate based upon log availability.
Marketing and Distribution. The Company's lumber products are sold
primarily to wholesalers. Wood chips produced by the Company's sawmills are
sold to manufacturers of pulp and paper in the U.S. and Canada. Sales of logs
are made to other U.S. and Canadian forest products companies.
Marketing of the Company's wood products is centralized in its Portland,
Oregon offices. Although the Company does not have distribution facilities at
the retail level, the Company does utilize several reload facilities around the
U.S. to assist in moving the product closer to the customer. The Company sold
wood products to numerous customers during 1994, the ten largest of which
accounted for approximately 33 percent of total wood products sales. No single
wood products customer accounted for more than 10 percent of the Company's
revenues in 1994.
Backlog. The Company maintains a minimal finished goods inventory of
wood products. At December 31, 1994, orders were approximately $7.5 million,
compared with approximately $11.2 million at December 31, 1993. This backlog
represented an average order file for the Company which generally would be
shipped in two weeks to one month. The decrease from 1993 to 1994 reflects
both reduced lumber sales prices and lower order volume. The lower order
volume is a function of timing and the Company does not believe it is
indicative of a business trend.
Competition. The wood products industry is highly competitive, with a
large number of companies producing products that are reasonably standardized.
There are numerous competitors of the Company that are of comparable size or
larger, none of which is believed to be dominant. With the 1992 Castlegar
sawmill acquisition, the Company believes it is one of the larger lumber
producers in North America. The principal means of competition in the
Company's wood products business are pricing and an ability to satisfy customer
demands for various types and grades of lumber and other finished products.
For further information regarding amounts of revenue, operating profit
and loss and identifiable assets attributable to the wood products industry
segment, see Note 11 of "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" in the
Company's 1994 Annual Report to Shareholders.

PULP AND PAPER PRODUCTS BUSINESS
The Company's principal pulp and paper products categories and the sales
generated by each over the last three years are set forth in the following
table:
Classes of Pulp and Paper Products 1994 1993 1992
---------------------------------- ---- ---- ----
(In thousands)
Tissue products $104,884 $105,040 $114,647
Disposable diapers 157,067 170,128 139,515
Bleached kraft pulp 77,950 40,319 63,410
Brokered wood chips 15,767 13,404 12,606
-------- -------- --------
Total pulp and paper products sales $355,668 $328,891 $330,178
======== ======== ========
Pulp and paper revenues increased $26.8 million, or 8 percent, from 1993
to 1994 due mainly to improved pulp sales. From 1993 to 1994, pulp volumes and
prices increased 54 percent and 25 percent, respectively. The volume increase
related primarily to the Halsey pulp mill's return to essentially full
production for the majority of 1994. In tissue, a 2 percent drop in volume was
offset by a 2 percent price improvement from 1993 to 1994. The decrease in
1994 diaper revenues resulted from a 5 percent volume reduction combined with 3
percent lower prices. Pulp and paper revenues were essentially unchanged from
1992 to 1993 as increased disposable diaper revenues were offset by lower
tissue and pulp revenues. The improved diaper revenues resulted from a 21
percent increase in sales volume. Tissue and pulp volumes were off
approximately 8 percent and 28 percent, respectively, from 1992 to 1993, while
tissue prices dropped 1 percent and pulp prices fell 12 percent during this
same period.
1. PAPER PRODUCTS
The Company produces a full line of private label consumer tissue
products including towels, napkins, bathroom tissue, and facial tissue. The
Company also produces disposable diapers. All of these products are sold under
private and controlled labels.
The raw material for the Company's tissue mills is wastepaper purchased
from wastepaper dealers located in the upper Midwest, mid- Atlantic and, to a
lesser extent, on the East Coast. The principal raw material for disposable
diapers is fluff pulp, which is produced by pulp and paper manufacturers
throughout the United States. The Company believes that there will continue to
be an adequate supply of wastepaper and fluff pulp in the foreseeable future.
Marketing and Distribution. The Company utilizes its own sales force
and some retail consumer products brokers to sell its products to supermarkets,
drugstores, mass merchandisers and food and drug distribution companies. The
Company's products enjoy national distribution; however, the majority are sold
east of the Rocky Mountains. Sales to the Company's ten largest paper products
customers represented 50 percent of tissue products and diaper sales in 1994.
No single paper products customer accounted for 10 percent or more of total
Company revenues in 1994.
Backlog. The Company carries a minimal finished goods inventory in
tissue products and disposable diapers. At the end of 1994 the order file was
approximately $11.8 million compared to a backlog of approximately $13.3
million at December 31, 1993. The lower order backlog at year-end 1994 than
year-end 1993 relates to timing of order receipts and the Company does not
believe it is indicative of a business trend. This backlog is generally
shipped in less than one month.
5
6
Competition. The tissue market is extremely competitive, with
approximately 10 major producers. Of these, Scott Paper Company, Fort Howard
Corporation, James River Corporation and Procter & Gamble Corporation are
dominant and account for approximately 64 percent of the market. Within the
tissue market, the Company estimates that the private label tissue segment
accounts for approximately 12 percent to 22 percent of the total, depending on
the product.
In the tissue business, continued low industry operating rates resulting
from industry capacity increases in recent years which have exceeded demand
growth, coupled with aggressive pricing by tissue producers, has resulted in an
extremely competitive tissue pricing environment. The Company's tissue mills
operated at 97 percent of capacity in 1994. Overall, beginning in 1989 and
continuing through 1993, prices for the Company's tissue fell an average 13
percent. This 13 percent price reduction included decreases of 6 percent in
1992 and 1 percent in 1993. In 1994, prices rebounded somewhat, averaging 2
percent higher than 1993.
Of the disposable diaper market, the Company estimates that
approximately 77 percent is in branded products, with the remaining 23 percent
relating to private label products. There are four major producers in the
disposable diaper business. Procter & Gamble and Kimberly- Clark are dominant
with a combined 75 percent of the market, all of which is in branded products.
Paragon Trade Brands, Inc. is the largest producer in the private label market
segment, followed by the Company with approximately 7 percent of the disposable
diaper market.
National branded manufacturers have introduced numerous and frequent
product innovations that have resulted in major improvements in infant
disposable diaper absorbency, leakage prevention and fit. The national branded
manufacturers have substantially larger research and development budgets than
the Company and are able to develop product innovations more rapidly than the
Company and may thereby gain market share at the Company's expense. While in
recent years the Company has been able to introduce product enhancements
comparable to those introduced by the national branded manufacturers, there can
be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to introduce
comparable product innovations on a profitable basis or that the Company will
continue to be able to introduce such product innovations at the pace required
to remain competitive with the national branded manufacturers.
The Company believes that its national distribution capabilities, its
full product line and its reputation as a private label supplier enhance its
market efforts.
2. PULP PRODUCTS
The Company owns a pulp mill and supporting facilities at Halsey,
Oregon. This mill produces bleached kraft pulp which is sold in various forms
in the open market and to newsprint manufacturers and a writing paper
manufacturer in the Pacific Northwest. In conjunction with the fiber
acquisition program for the pulp mill, the Company brokers pulp chips for sale
primarily into the export market. The total annual capacity of the mill is
180,000 air dry metric tons; 158,000 metric tons were produced in 1994 and
109,000 metric tons were produced in 1993. The Company's pulp business was
affected in 1992 and to a greater extent in 1993 by relatively high wood chip
costs, weak demand, declining pulp prices and by the loss of a major customer.
However, the pulp market rebounded dramatically in 1994 which, along with sales
to a significant new pulp customer in 1994, allowed the Company to increase its
pulp sales volume 54 percent over the 1993 level.
From 1985 until 1993 the Company had a pulp supply contract with James
River Corporation ("James River") under which the Company supplied up to
approximately 65,000 metric tons of pulp in slush form to a tissue facility
owned by James River adjacent to the Company's pulp mill. James River began
production of its own recycled pulp at Halsey in
6
7
1992, and correspondingly reduced its consumption of pulp from the Company's
pulp mill in 1992 and completely phased out of its Halsey pulp consumption in
1993. Approximately 10,000 metric tons were sold to James River in early 1993.
As a result of depressed world pulp prices in 1992 and 1993, selective
downtime was taken in lieu of selling pulp in the open market to replace the
lost James River tonnage. Because of the lost James River volume and the
related decision to take selective downtime, the Halsey pulp mill operated at
60 percent of capacity in 1993.
In order to provide additional sales flexibility and attempt to improve
margins through higher value products, the Company initiated mill modifications
in 1993 totaling $41 million, which were completed in early 1994, to improve
pulp quality and expand pulp drying capabilities. These modifications were in
addition to a $24 million oxygen delignification project which reduced both the
use of chlorine in the bleaching process and dioxin discharges. This oxygen
delignification project, which was completed late in 1993, was necessary to
comply with an agreement entered into with the Oregon Department of
Environmental Quality on meeting target emission levels. These mill
improvements have allowed the Company to expand its pulp product offerings and
to dry its total pulp production, thus providing greater access to new pulp
markets within and outside the Pacific Northwest, which has historically been
the Company's primary pulp market region.
The pulp mill modifications mentioned previously made it possible for
the Company to enter into a significant pulp supply agreement in late 1993.
Under this agreement with Grays Harbor Paper L.P. ("Grays Harbor"), the Company
began supplying pulp to the Grays Harbor writing grade paper mill. In 1994,
Grays Harbor purchased approximately 89,000 metric tons of pulp from the
Company. All output from the paper mill is sold to one customer. In the event
that the paper mill's sales to its customer are adversely impacted for any
reason, sales of the Company's pulp may be adversely impacted. A portion of
the pulp sold to the paper mill is produced from sawdust and hardwood chips,
which have historically been less expensive than softwood chips, which has been
the primary raw material for the pulp mill. Pricing for this pulp is computed
using a formula based on prices for white paper.
Weyerhaeuser Company ("Weyerhaeuser") owns a pulp mill, which it is
currently upgrading and expanding, located adjacent to the North Pacific Paper
Company ("Norpac") newspaper manufacturing facility in Longview, Washington.
Weyerhaeuser is a part owner of Norpac. Upon completion of the Weyerhaeuser
upgrade and expansion project, Norpac will likely satisfy its pulp needs
through purchases from the Weyerhaeuser mill. In 1994, Norpac purchased
approximately 48,000 metric tons of pulp from the Company. Norpac is presently
phasing out its pulp purchases from the Company and by the fourth quarter of
1995, plans to discontinue purchases from the Halsey pulp mill. As a result of
the mill's pulp enhancements brought about by the previously mentioned mill
modifications, the Company does not anticipate that the present reduction, and
ultimate discontinuation, of Norpac sales volume will have a material adverse
effect on the Company's pulp business or results of operations.
Substantially all of the Company's wood chip and sawdust requirements
for the Halsey pulp mill are satisfied through purchases by the Company from
third parties. The Company has long-term chip supply contracts with sawmills
in the Pacific Northwest.
Environmental concerns over timber harvests, which have caused high log
costs for the Company's Port Gamble sawmill, have also caused higher chip costs
and reduced chip availability from historic sources at the Halsey pulp mill
over the past several years. In order to maintain an adequate supply of wood
fiber for the mill, the Company has expanded its geographic base from which it
obtains the softwood chips normally used as the primary raw material for the
pulp mill. The Company has also expanded the capability of using sawdust and
hardwood chips, which historically have been less expensive than softwood
chips, as raw materials for a portion of the production. In order to maintain
an adequate supply of chips for the anticipated 60 percent of the pulp mill's
production which will remain based on softwood
7
8
chips, the Company will continue to use an expanded geographic base to obtain
chips, adding to their cost. Although chip costs have remained at historically
high levels, they have been essentially constant during 1992, 1993 and 1994;
however, chip prices did begin to increase late in 1994 and early 1995. Unless
environmental restrictions on timber harvests are relaxed, chip prices likely
will remain high, and sawdust and hardwood chip prices may also increase. The
Company believes that its third-party chip and sawdust purchases will be
adequate for the Halsey pulp mill in the foreseeable future.
Marketing and Distribution. The Company utilizes its own sales force
and pulp brokers to sell its pulp products. Substantially all of the Company's
pulp products are sold in the Northwest. In 1994, sales to Grays Harbor
represented 45 percent of the Company's pulp revenues, sales to Norpac
represented 28 percent of the Company's pulp revenues, and the remaining eight
largest customers accounted for an additional 22 percent of pulp revenues. No
single pulp customer accounted for 10 percent or more of total Company revenues
in 1994.
Backlog. The Company's pulp customers typically enter into one- to
three-year contracts and provide the Company with annual estimates of their
requirements. More definite orders are placed by these customers on a
quarterly or monthly basis. As of December 31, 1994, the Company's backlog of
orders for pulp products for delivery during the first quarter of 1995 was $27
million, compared to a backlog of approximately $19 million at December 31,
1993. This increase in order backlog reflects the improved pulp markets in the
first quarter of 1995 compared to the first quarter of 1994.
Competition. The pulp industry is highly competitive, with a
substantial number of competitors having extensive financial resources,
manufacturing expertise and sales and distribution organizations, most of which
are larger than the Company, but none of which is believed to be dominant. The
principal methods of competition in the pulp market are price, quality, volume,
reliability of supply and customer service.
For further information regarding amounts of revenue, operating profit
and loss and identifiable assets attributable to the pulp and paper products
industry segment, see Note 11 of "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements"
in the Company's 1994 Annual Report to Shareholders.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
The Company is subject to federal, state, Canadian and local air, water
and land pollution control, solid and hazardous waste management, disposal and
remediation laws and regulations in all areas where it has operations.
Compliance with these laws and regulations generally requires operating costs
as well as capital expenditures. It is difficult to estimate the costs related
solely to environmental matters of many capital projects which have been
completed in the past or which may be required in the future. Changes required
to comply with environmental standards will affect other areas such as facility
life and capacity, changes in raw material requirements and costs and product
value. It is estimated that during 1994, capital expenditures for
environmental controls amounted to approximately $4 million. It is expected
that capital expenditures will continue into the future and may increase over
time. Based on the understanding of future compliance standards, expenditures
for such purposes are currently estimated to be minimal in 1995 and 1996;
however, the ultimate outcome of future compliance is uncertain due to various
factors such as the interpretation of environmental laws and evolving
technologies.
In response to environmental concerns in Western Oregon and Western
Washington, specifically the preservation of old-growth forests and wildlife
habitat, substantial amounts of federal timberlands have been set aside as
wilderness areas. This has affected and may continue to affect the amount and
cost of timber obtainable from public agencies in this region. Currently, the
Company's exposure in this region is the Port Gamble, Washington sawmill and
the Halsey, Oregon pulp mill. The carrying value of the Port Gamble sawmill
was written down
8
9
in 1990 as a result of its inability to obtain adequate timber supply; the
sawmill now operates based upon log availability. The Halsey pulp mill is also
affected by the decrease in timber availability, since its primary raw
materials, wood chips, sawdust and hardwood chips, are by-products of the
lumber manufacturing process. The Company believes that, based on existing
wood chip and sawdust availability both within the Willamette Valley region of
Oregon and from other sources discussed previously, wood chip and sawdust
resources will be adequate for the Company's requirements at the Halsey pulp
mill in the foreseeable future. The Company also believes that the reduced
availability of public timber in Western Washington will have little, if any,
additional impact on the Company's Port Gamble operations.
In Canada, the Provincial Government of British Columbia's Commission of
Resources and Environment ("CORE") is reviewing the future use of the forest
resources in the province, including reserving additional forest resources to
park lands. The results of these CORE reviews may affect the amount of timber
available in the future and could reduce the amount of timber available to the
Company's Canadian sawmills by 10 percent to 30 percent or more.
The Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") has published proposed
regulations which would establish standards and limitations for non-combustion
sources under the Clean Air Act and revised regulations under the Clean Water
Act. These proposals are collectively referred to as the "cluster rules" and
have been the subject of extensive discussions between the pulp and paper
industry and the EPA. The Company's primary exposure to these proposals relate
to the Company's Halsey pulp mill, and to a much lesser degree the Company's
two tissue mills. Based on preliminary evaluation of the proposed rules,
required modifications to the Company's mills could range from $15 million to
$30 million. The proposed rules could be made effective in 1999 at the
earliest, although later enactment is possible.
In 1992, the Company was contacted by the local governmental owner of a
vacant industrial site in Oregon on which the Company previously conducted
business. The owner informed the Company that the site has been identified as
one containing creosote and coal tar, and that it plans to undertake a
voluntary cleanup effort of the site. The owner has requested that the Company
participate in the cost of the cleanup. The Company, in conjunction with an
environmental consultant has performed preliminary assessment of soil
contamination on the site and, in conjunction with the site owner, is beginning
to make more extensive site assessments which will take up to two years. The
results of the preliminary assessment indicate there is some soil contamination
present from creosote and coal tar as well as pollutants from other sources,
and that the responsibility for the contamination is not clear. The total
estimated cost of cleaning up the known contamination at this time could be in
the range of $1 million to $3 million although no determination of the
responsibility for the cleanup has been established. If the more extensive
site assessment indicates additional contamination which has not been shown at
this time, the costs of remediation could be much higher. The Company believes
it is reasonably possible that the costs associated with the cleanup of this
site may exceed current accruals by amounts which may range from insignificant
up to approximately $5 million over several years. This upper range estimate
of possible outcomes is substantially less certain than the estimates upon
which accruals are currently based, and utilizes assumptions substantially less
favorable to the Company among the range of reasonably possible outcomes.

(1) Based on normal industry practice of operating two shifts, five days per
week for lumber mills except for the Newcastle, Wyoming and Grand Forks,
British Columbia mills which are based upon one shift, five days per week.
(2) Wood chips are produced as a result of the operation of the Company's
lumber mills. It is estimated that the aggregate annual capacity for such
production is 406,000 bone dry units. In 1994, 380,000 bone dry units were
produced.
(3) The Grand Forks, British Columbia lumber mill was changed from a two-shift
to a one-shift production basis effective January 1, 1995.
The Company believes that its wood products manufacturing facilities are
adequate and suitable for current operations. Nevertheless, the Company is
committed to continually improving its manufacturing facilities as evidenced by
the 1994 completion of the second phase of a project to improve raw material
utilization at the Castlegar lumber mill.
The Company owns all of its wood products manufacturing facilities
except that it leases the ground on which the Port Gamble facilities are
located from Pope Resources, A Delaware Limited Partnership, pursuant to a
20-year lease entered into in December 1985.
2. Timber and Timberland
Restructuring activities in 1992 resulted in the sale of approximately
21,800 acres of primarily immature timber in Oregon. The Company no longer
owns any timberland in the Pacific Northwest.

Shenandoah, Georgia 126,000,000 pads 23,000,000 pads
__________________
(1) Based on normal industry practice of operating three shifts per day,
seven days per week, less scheduled downtime.
The Company believes that its tissue and diaper manufacturing facilities
are adequate and suitable for current operations. In 1994, the Company
completed rebuilds of its diaper machines and also began a project to
significantly upgrade the Eau Claire wastepaper pulping capabilities. This
pulping upgrade project is scheduled for completion in mid 1995.
The Company owns all of its tissue and diaper production facilities,
except that it leases the building which contains the Shenandoah diaper and
incontinent production facilities.
2. Pulp Mill
The Company owns a bleached kraft pulp mill near Halsey, Oregon. In
1994, 158,000 air dry metric tons of pulp were produced, compared with an
estimated annual capacity of 180,000 metric tons. During 1994 the Company
spent $13 million to complete installation of a conventional Flakt pulp dryer
which allows the mill to produce market pulp in a form suitable for shipping to
markets outside the Pacific Northwest. The Flakt pulp dryer cost $37 million
in total. The Company believes that its pulp facility is adequate and suitable
for current operations.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
In 1985, shareholders of the Company approved a Plan of Distribution
pursuant to which all of the Company's timber properties and development
properties and related assets and liabilities in the State of Washington were
transferred to newly-formed Pope Resources, A Delaware Limited Partnership,
with interests in the partnership distributed to the Company's shareholders on
a pro rata basis.
11
12
The Company assigned to the assets transferred a distribution value for
federal income tax purposes based upon the public trading price of the
partnership interests at the time of distribution. The Internal Revenue
Service has asserted that the Company owes additional federal income tax in the
amount of approximately $14 million (plus applicable interest) in connection
with this transaction and the Company has disputed this asserted tax liability.
The issue is scheduled to be heard in U.S. Tax Court during the third quarter
1995. The Company will vigorously contest the assessed tax liability through
independent tax counsel. The Company believes, based upon consultation with
independent tax counsel, that the additional tax due in this matter, if any,
will ultimately be significantly less than the assessed amount and will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position. The final
tax settlement, if any, will be recognized as a reduction in equity with
respect to the partnership transaction.
