MONTREAL, May 3, 2016 /CNW Telbec/ - Consolidated sales for the three-month period ended March 26, 2016, were $380 million, as compared to $348 million in the same quarter a year ago. The Company generated net earnings of $27 million or $0.27 per share in the March 2016 quarter compared to a net loss of $40 million or $0.40 per share in the March 2015 quarter. The current quarter results include a non-cash gain of $27 million related to the translation of US dollar denominated debt. The comparable quarter of the prior year included a non-cash loss of $37 million related to the translation of US dollar denominated debt. Operating earnings before depreciation, amortization and other items (adjusted EBITDA) was $36 million for the three-month period ended March 26, 2016, as compared to adjusted EBITDA of $12 million a year ago and adjusted EBITDA of $29 million in the prior quarter.
Business Segment Results
The Specialty Cellulose Pulp segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $17 million on sales of $120 million for the quarter ended March 26, 2016, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $19 million on sales of $109 million in the December 2015 quarter. The pulp sales increase of $12 million was due to higher shipments of specialty and viscose grades. Canadian dollar selling prices for specialty grades declined by $39 per tonne. The benefit of a weaker Canadian dollar for the Temiscaming mill was more than offset by a weaker sales mix, which reduced average US dollar selling prices and led to a $2 million decline in adjusted EBITDA. The $52 per tonne increase in the selling price of viscose and other grades was due to higher US dollar selling prices and the weaker Canadian dollar. Overall, the higher viscose grade prices increased adjusted EBITDA by $2 million. Shipments were equal to 94% of capacity, compared to 80% in the December 2015 quarter. There was no major maintenance downtime at either pulp mill in the December 2015 or March 2016 quarters. Costs increased by $3 million quarter-over-quarter, including a $2 million negative variance on net realizable value adjustments related to the carrying values of non-specialty grade finished goods inventories. Chemical business adjusted EBITDA increased by $1 million versus the prior quarter.
The Forest Products segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $1 million on sales of $108 million for the quarter ended March 26, 2016, compared to negative adjusted EBITDA of $1 million on sales of $110 million in the prior quarter. Sales decreased by $2 million due to lower SPF lumber shipments, partially offset by higher lumber prices and by-product shipments. During the March 2016 quarter, the random length lumber reference price increased by US $2 per mbf while the reference price for stud lumber decreased by US $5 per mbf. Currency was a favourable factor as the Canadian dollar averaged US $0.727, a 2.9% decline from US $0.749 in the prior quarter. The net effect was that Canadian dollar selling prices increased by $19 per mbf, increasing adjusted EBITDA by $3 million. Lumber shipments were equal to 81% of capacity versus 92% in the prior quarter. In response to relatively low stud lumber prices, the Company idled the Senneterre, Quebec, sawmill in early February 2016, removing approximately 14 million board feet of production in the March 2016 quarter. Sawmill manufacturing costs increased by $1 million. The fall and winter months are normally higher operating cost periods.
The Paper Pulp segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $2 million on sales of $77 million for the quarter ended March 26, 2016, compared to negative adjusted EBITDA of $2 million on sales of $68 million in the December 2015 quarter. The $9 million increase in sales was due to higher shipments. The benchmark price (delivered China) for bleached eucalyptus kraft (BEK) decreased by US $94 per tonne. The high-yield paper pulp market followed a similar pattern, but the decline was less pronounced as pricing was already relatively low. Average US dollar prices for high-yield pulp declined by US $16 per tonne quarter-over-quarter. Currency was favourable as the Canadian dollar declined versus the US dollar. Overall, average selling prices in Canadian dollars were relatively unchanged and did not impact adjusted EBITDA. Pulp shipments were equal to 92% of capacity as compared to 83% in the prior quarter. In the March 2016 quarter, the two pulp mills produced 24,500 more tonnes as compared to the prior quarter. In response to weak market conditions, the Temiscaming mill was idled for a total of 33 days in the December 2015 quarter as compared to only eight days in the March 2016 quarter. The Matane mill also lost five days due to scheduled major maintenance in the December 2015 quarter. The higher production generated a $4 million favourable cost variance related to the absorption of fixed manufacturing costs.
The Paper segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $21 million on sales of $102 million for the quarter ended March 26, 2016, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $16 million on sales of $94 million in the December 2015 quarter. The increase in sales was due to higher shipments of coated bleached board and higher selling prices for both coated bleached board and newsprint. The US dollar reference price for coated bleached board was unchanged at US $1,180 per short ton. Currency was a positive factor due to the previously noted Canadian dollar decline. Overall, average selling prices for coated bleached board were up $59 per tonne increasing adjusted EBITDA by $2 million. The coated bleached board shipment to capacity ratio was 99% compared to 90% in the prior quarter. Manufacturing costs were relatively unchanged. The US dollar benchmark price for newsprint increased by US $33 per tonne. The weaker Canadian dollar favourably impacted price realizations, which improved by $41 per tonne, increasing adjusted EBITDA by $2 million. The newsprint shipment to capacity ratio was 91% compared to 98% in the prior quarter. Manufacturing costs at the Kapuskasing newsprint mill declined by $1 million due to higher productivity and lower energy costs.
Outlook
Overall, the March 2016 quarterly results were better than anticipated. All business segments benefited from the 3% decline in the relative value of the Canadian dollar versus the US dollar. The $2 million decline in Specialty Cellulose segment adjusted EBITDA was expected as the Company shipped a lower mix of specialty pulp as well as a higher percentage of viscose grade. This situation will likely continue for at least several quarters. The Temiscaming specialty cellulose pulp mill will be down for its annual maintenance outage in May, which will reduce June 2016 quarterly profitability by approximately $6 million. The expected seasonal improvement in US dollar lumber prices has been muted to date, resulting in low profitability for the Forest Products segment. The lumber market remains difficult to assess, but relatively balanced inventory levels combined with some improvement in demand should lead to higher prices. The $4 million improvement in the Paper Pulp segment results was due to less market downtime and higher productivity at the Temiscaming mill. Hardwood paper pulp markets continue to be soft, as evidenced by the recent price decline in the benchmark BEK grade. This market will remain challenging. The Paper segment adjusted EBITDA increased by $5 million. In addition to the currency benefit, quarterly results benefited from the first US dollar newsprint price increase in several years. This segment should continue to perform well, albeit with a decrease in margins due to the recent strengthening of the Canadian dollar versus the US dollar. While the Company expects a significant improvement in year-over-year operating results, the extent of the increase will be impacted by external factors such as the US dollar price for certain products as well as foreign exchange rates.
