Forecasted NA lumber demand will exceed supply by 2 BBF by 2020 8-10 % YOY growth in new home construction
6- 8 % YOY growth in repair and remodel
Increased consumption of wood in new building designs
Significant increase in softwood lumber consumption in China, SE Asia and India Shift from Hardwood to Softwood
Shift from Concrete & Steel to wood frame construction
Southern Yellow Pine will be the critical species in filling the supply gap
High quality timber is required to support the increasing demand for premium
specialty and structural products
The Road Ahead – The Future Looks Bright

SOUTHERN YELLOW PINE: THE ROAD AHEAD• 2016 North American lumber demand dynamics
have been positive.
• Domestic consumption is forecasted to increase significantly over the next five years….the US South will lead the way.
• Log supply constraints will continue in Canada, but log inventory is growing in the US South.
• The US South is well-positioned and remains a good investment opportunity.

Significant FindingsResidual supply 2007-2014:• 21% less than the supply between 2000 and 2006• Pine/hardwood residual prices increased 12.5% and 10.7%
Pine pulpwood consumption and price 2008-2014:• Non-pellet demand increased by 5.8 mm tons (from 111.8 to 117.7 mm tons) • Pellet demand increased by 3.7 mm tons (from 0 to 3.7 mm tons)• Sawtimber inventory increased significantly more than pulpwood• US South average pulpwood prices increased 4.5% annually • Similar price trends in areas with and without export pellet influence
Hardwood pulpwood consumption and price 2010-2014:• Non-pellet demand decreased by 2.5 mm tons (from 36.1 to 33.6 mm tons) • Pellet mill demand has increased by 2.4 mm tons (from 0 to 2.4 mm tons)• Sawtimber inventory increased and pulpwood inventory declined• US South average pulpwood prices increased 7.4% annually• Similar price trends in areas with and without export pellet influence

EU Export Pellet Outlook
• 2014 – 3.6 mm metric tons (40% market share)
• Near-term growth – 7.4 mm metric tons (from existing installed capacity)
• Additional demand – 3.4 mm metric tons (40% market share)
• Total capacity – 10-11 mm metric tons (7 new mills)
• Total Removals – .6% of pulpwood inventory

Key Takeaways• Southern forests are sustainable
• The marketplace is experiencing a post-recession inventory and residual supply correction
• Several factors (e.g. inventory and residual correction, increased post-recession demand, pellets, weather) have affected pulpwood removals and prices
• Price trends are similar in areas with and without pellets
• Pellets will have a relatively minor impact on overall wood supply and prices but may have more significant localized impacts
