LP Reports Second Quarter 2016 Results

Louisiana-Pacific Corporation (LP) (NYSE: LPX) reported results today for the second quarter of 2016, which included the following:

Sales for the second quarter of $582 million were higher by 18 percent compared to the year ago quarter.
Income from continuing operations was $32 million ($0.22 per diluted share).
Non-GAAP adjusted income from operations was $40 million ($0.28 per diluted share).
Adjusted EBITDA from operations for the second quarter was $99 million compared to $16 million in the second quarter of 2015.
Cash and cash equivalents were $475 million as of June 30, 2016.

“This was an outstanding quarter for LP as every one of our segments helped drive net income of over $30 million,” Said Curt Stevens, Chief Executive Officer.  “OSB had adjusted EBITDA of $59 million and our Siding segment had nearly $50 million of adjusted EBITDA.  These results were due to higher OSB pricing, slightly improved housing starts and lower production costs across our system.”

SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

For the second quarter of 2016, LP reported net income of $32 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $20 million, or $0.14 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2015.

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the the first six months of 2016 was $151 million compared to $22 million for 2015.

COMPANY OUTLOOK

“While I now expect 2016 housing starts to be up less than 10% over last year, this muted recovery actually bodes well for the future as there will likely be a long period of improving housing activity,” continued Stevens.  "With our broad portfolio of commodity and value-added products, LP is in an excellent position to capitalize on growth in housing starts, repair / remodel activity, retail and industrial markets.”

LP is a premier supplier of building materials, delivering innovative, high-quality commodity and specialty products to its retail, wholesale, homebuilding and industrial customers.
