NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

FOR THE QUARTERS AND YEAR-TO-DATE PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 AND 2023

NOTE 1: BASIS O****F PRESENTATION

Our consolidated financial statements provide an overall view of our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. They include our accounts and the accounts of entities we control, including majority-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries. They do not include our intercompany transactions and accounts, which are eliminated. Throughout these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, unless specified otherwise, references to “Weyerhaeuser,” “the company,” “we” and “our” refer to the consolidated company.

The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Except as otherwise disclosed in these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission pertaining to interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in our annual Consolidated Financial Statements have been condensed or omitted. These quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Results of operations for interim periods should not necessarily be regarded as indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

NOTE 2: BUSIN****ESS SEGMENTS

We are principally engaged in growing and harvesting timber; maximizing the value of our acreage through the sale of higher and better use (HBU) properties; monetizing the value of surface and subsurface assets through leases and royalties; and manufacturing, distributing and selling products made from trees. Our business segments are organized based primarily on products and services which include:

●

Timberlands – Logs, timber, recreational leases and other products;

●

Real Estate, Energy and Natural Resources (Real Estate & ENR) – Real Estate (sales of timberlands) and ENR (rights to explore for and extract hard minerals, construction materials, natural gas production and wind and solar) and

●

Wood Products – Structural lumber, oriented strand board, engineered wood products and building materials distribution.

A reconciliation of our business segment information to the respective information in the Consolidated Statement of Operations is as follows:

NOTE 4: NET EARNINGS PER SHARE AND SHARE REPURCHASES

Our basic and diluted earnings per share were:

●

$0.24 during second quarter 2024 and $0.39 during year-to-date 2024;

●

$0.31 during second quarter 2023 and $0.52 during year-to-date 2023.

Basic earnings per share is net earnings divided by the weighted average number of our outstanding common shares, including stock equivalent units where there is no circumstance under which those shares would not be issued. Diluted earnings per share is net earnings divided by the sum of the weighted average number of our outstanding common shares and the effect of our outstanding dilutive potential common shares.

Potential Shares Not Included in the Computation of Diluted Earnings per Share

The following shares were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were either antidilutive or the required performance or market conditions were not met. Some or all of these shares may be dilutive potential common shares in future periods.

Share Repurchase Program

On September 22, 2021, we announced that our board of directors approved a new share repurchase program (the 2021 Repurchase Program) under which we are authorized to repurchase up to $1 billion of outstanding shares. Concurrently, the board terminated the remaining repurchase authorization under the share repurchase program approved by the board in February 2019 (the 2019 Repurchase Program).

We repurchased 1,669,145 common shares for approximately $50 million (including transaction fees) under the 2021 Repurchase Program during second quarter 2024 and 3,141,514 common shares for approximately $99 million (including transaction fees) under the 2021 Share Repurchase Program during year-to-date 2024. As of June 30, 2024, we had remaining authorization of $152 million for future share repurchases. During year-to-date 2023, we repurchased 2,805,434 common shares for approximately $85 million (including transaction fees) under the 2021 Repurchase Program.

All common stock repurchases under the 2021 Repurchase Program were made in open-market transactions. We record share repurchases upon trade date as opposed to the settlement date when cash is disbursed. We record a liability for repurchases that have not yet been settled as of period end. There were 15,765 unsettled shares (approximately $1 million) as of June 30, 2024 and 13,866 unsettled shares (approximately $1 million) as of December 31, 2023.

NOTE 5: IN****VENTORIES

Inventories include raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods, as well as materials and supplies.

For the periods presented, service cost is included in “Costs of sales,” “Selling expenses,” and “General and administrative expenses” with the remaining components included in “Non-operating pension and other post-employment benefit costs” in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Fair Value of Pension Plan Assets and Obligations

In our year-end reporting process, we estimate the fair value of pension plan assets based upon the information available at that time. For certain assets, primarily private equity funds, the information available consists of net asset values as of an interim date, cash flows between the interim date and the end of the year and market events. We evaluate the year-end estimated fair value of pension plan assets in second quarter of each year to incorporate final net asset values reflected in financial statements received after we have filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K. No adjustments to the fair value of assets or projected benefit obligations were necessary during second quarter 2024.

NOTE 7: ACCRU****ED LIABILITIES

Accrued liabilities were comprised of the following:

Current portion of lease liabilities2119
Customer rebates, volume discounts and deferred income140124

Taxes payable5331
Other7091
Total$504$501

NOTE 8: LONG-TERM DEBT AND LINE OF CREDIT

In May 2023, we completed an offering of debt securities by issuing $750 million of 4.750 percent notes due in May 2026. The net proceeds after deducting the discount, underwriting fees and issuance costs were $743 million.

In March 2023, we refinanced and extended our $1.5 billion five-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility, which expires in March 2028. Borrowings will bear interest at a floating rate based on either the adjusted term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus a spread or a mutually agreed upon base rate plus a spread. We had no outstanding borrowings on our credit facility as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

NOTE 9: FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The estimated fair value and carrying value of our long-term debt consisted of the following:

JUNE 30, 2024DECEMBER 31, 2023
DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN MILLIONSCARRYING VALUEFAIR VALUE (LEVEL 2)CARRYING VALUEFAIR VALUE (LEVEL 2)
Long-term debt (including current maturities) and line of credit:
Fixed rate$4,823$4,718$4,820$4,853
Variable rate249250249250
Total debt$5,072$4,968$5,069$5,103

To estimate the fair value of fixed rate long-term debt, we used the market approach, which is based on quoted market prices we received for the same types and issues of our debt. We believe that our variable-rate long term debt and line of credit instruments have net carrying values that approximate their fair value with only insignificant differences. The inputs to the valuations of our long-term debt are based on market data obtained from independent sources or information derived principally from observable market data. The difference between the fair value and the carrying value represents the theoretical net premium or discount we would pay or receive to retire all debt at the measurement date.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments

We believe that our other financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, receivables and payables, have net carrying values that approximate their fair values with only insignificant differences. This is primarily due to the short-term nature of these instruments and the allowance for doubtful accounts.

NOTE 10: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS, C****OMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

We are party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We are not currently a party to any legal proceeding that management believes could have a material adverse effect on our Consolidated Statement of Operations, Consolidated Balance Sheet or Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

Environmental Matters

Site Remediation

Under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) – commonly known as the “Superfund” – and similar state laws, we:

●

are a party to various proceedings related to the cleanup of hazardous waste sites and

●

have been notified that we may be a potentially responsible party related to the cleanup of other hazardous waste sites for which proceedings have not yet been initiated.

As of June 30, 2024, our total accrual for future estimated remediation costs on active Superfund sites and other sites for which we are potentially responsible was approximately $79 million. These amounts are recorded in "Accrued liabilities" and "Other liabilities" on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.

NOTE 12: SHARE-B****ASED COMPENSATION

Share-based compensation activity during year-to-date 2024 included the following:

SHARES IN THOUSANDSGRANTEDVESTED
Restricted stock units (RSUs)915684
Performance share units (PSUs)412317

A total of 746 thousand shares of common stock were issued as a result of RSU and PSU vestings.

Restricted Stock Units

The weighted average fair value of the RSUs granted in 2024, calculated as an average of the high and low prices on grant date, was $32.92. The vesting provisions for RSUs granted in 2024 were consistent with prior year grants.

Performance Share Units

The weighted average grant date fair value of PSUs granted in 2024 was $37.90. The final number of shares granted in 2024 will vest between a range of 0 percent to 150 percent of each grant's target, depending upon actual company total shareholder return (TSR) compared against the TSR of an industry peer group. TSR assumes full reinvestment of dividends. PSUs granted in 2024 will vest at a maximum of 100 percent of target value in the event of negative absolute company TSR.

NOTE 14: INCOME TAXES

As a real estate investment trust (REIT), we generally are not subject to federal corporate income taxes on REIT taxable income that is distributed to shareholders. We are required to pay corporate income taxes on earnings of our wholly-owned Taxable REIT Subsidiaries (TRSs), which include our Wood Products segment and a portion of our Timberlands and Real Estate & ENR segments.

The quarterly provision for income taxes is based on our current estimate of the annual effective tax rate and is adjusted for discrete taxable events that have occurred during the year. Our 2024 estimated annual effective tax rate, excluding discrete items, differs from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21 percent primarily due to state and foreign income taxes and tax benefits associated with our nontaxable REIT earnings.

N****OTE 15: TIMBERLAND ACQUISITIONS

On July 25, 2024, we announced acquisitions totaling 84 thousand acres of Alabama timberlands for approximately $244 million. The first transaction was completed on May 30, 2024 and was comprised of 13 thousand acres for approximately $48 million. We recorded $47 million of timberland assets in "Timber and timberlands at cost, less depletion" and $1 million of related assets in "Property and equipment, net" on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The remaining transactions are subject to customary closing conditions and are expected to close in second half 2024.
