Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 – Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Deltic Timber Corporation (the “Company” or “Deltic”). Certain information and accounting policies and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although management of the Company believes the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. Preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Management believes the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals and adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary to present fairly its financial position as of March 31, 2013, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. These consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued.

Recently Issued Authoritative Accounting Pronouncements and Guidance

Financial Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02, “Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Topic 220),” became effective January 1, 2013, for the Company. The amendment of this update requires an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component including the respective line item of net income when reclassed in its entirety or cross-referenced to other disclosures if not reclassed in its entirety. (For additional information, refer to Note 11 – Other Comprehensive Income Disclosures.)

Note 4 – Investment in Del-Tin Fiber

Through March 31, 2013, the Company owned 50 percent of the membership of Del-Tin Fiber, LLC (“Del-Tin Fiber”), which operates a medium density fiberboard (“MDF”) plant near El Dorado, Arkansas. The Company’s membership in Del-Tin Fiber is discussed in more detail in Note 4 – Investment in Del-Tin Fiber, in the Company’s 2012 annual report on Form 10-K. On February 13, 2013, Deltic announced the Company’s intention to acquire the other 50 percent membership from TIN, Inc. for $20,000,000, which includes the assumption of $14,844,000 in debt guarantees. This acquisition was completed April 1, 2013. For additional information, refer to Note 14 – Subsequent Events.

On August 26, 2004, the Company executed a guarantee agreement in connection with the refinancing of the debt of Del-Tin Fiber, which included both a five-year term loan and a long-term bond obligation. In connection with the bond obligation, Del-Tin Fiber has issued a letter of credit in support of the bond obligation, and both Deltic and the other joint venture partner agreed to guarantee Del-Tin Fiber’s performance under the letter of credit at inception. The Company’s guarantee under the letter of credit expires on August 31, 2016. In connection with the issuance of Deltic’s original guarantee of the letter of credit, the fair value of the guarantee of the bonds was determined to be immaterial. In reviewing the payment and performance risk associated with this guarantee, Deltic continues to consider the risk minimal based on Del-Tin Fiber’s balance sheet, past performance, and length of time remaining on the guarantee.

At March 31, 2013, and December 31, 2012, the Company’s share of the underlying net assets of Del-Tin Fiber exceeded its investment by $13,961,000 and $14,162,000, respectively. The difference relates primarily to the Company’s write-off of its carrying amount for its investment in Del-Tin Fiber as of December 31, 2002, which was not recorded by Del-Tin Fiber. The

Note 4 – Investment in Del-Tin Fiber (cont.)

equity in earnings of Del-Tin Fiber recognized by the Company exceeds its ownership percentage of Del-Tin Fiber’s earnings because the difference in basis between the Company and Del-Tin Fiber is being adjusted to account for Del-Tin Fiber’s operating results as if it were a consolidated subsidiary. On April 1, 2013, the Company completed the acquisition of the other half of the ownership of Del-Tin Fiber from its joint venture partner. Beginning in the second quarter of 2013, Deltic will operate and report Del-Tin Fiber operations as a consolidated subsidiary.

The financial position for Del-Tin Fiber as of the balance sheet dates and results of operations consisted of the following:

Non-strategic timber and timberlands		318			321
	$	249,994			240,215

In 1999, the Company initiated a program to identify and sell non-strategic timberlands and use the sales proceeds to purchase pine timberlands that are strategic to its operations. In 2008, Deltic identified approximately 10,000 acres of non-strategic timberlands that existed within its timberlands base to be sold. Other non-strategic acreage exists within the Company’s land base, but Deltic has not completely identified the number of acres that fit within this category. As the Company identifies these acres and determines that either smaller tracts of pine timberlands cannot be strategically managed or tracts of hardwood bottomland cannot be converted into pine growing acreage, they will be sold. As of March 31, 2013, approximately 700 acres of these lands were available for sale. Included in the Woodlands operating income are gains from sales of non-strategic timberland of $378,000 and $259,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Note 9 – Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2013, was 36 percent. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest expense related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in other expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company recognized $45,000 in interest expense from these items. The Company had approximately $516,000 accrued in deferred revenues and other accrued liabilities for interest and penalties at March 31, 2013. If the Company were to prevail on all unrecognized tax benefits recorded on the balance sheet, approximately $780,000 would benefit the effective rate. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal and state examinations by tax authorities for years before 2009.

Note 13 – Contingencies

In December of 2012, lumber storage sheds at the operating facility in Ola, Arkansas were destroyed due to an accumulation of snow and ice on the roofs of the storage sheds, though it did not result in any significant loss of lumber inventory. Replacement of these sheds is covered under the terms of applicable insurance policies, subject to deductibles. As of March 31, 2013, the Company has recorded $84,000 in gain on involuntary conversion due to insurance recovery to date for the destroyed sheds. Currently Deltic is in the process of replacing the destroyed storage sheds, and once the replacement expenditures meet or exceed $881,000, a claim will be filed with the insurance carriers for reimbursement. The additional proceeds of $797,000 will be recorded as a gain on involuntary conversion in the period received.

At various times, the Company may be involved in litigation incidental to its operations. Currently there are no material legal proceedings outstanding.

Note 14 – Subsequent Events

Del-Tin Fiber Acquisition

On April 1, 2013, Deltic Timber Corporation completed the previously announced acquisition of the remaining 50 percent membership of Del-Tin Fiber, LLC which was owned by TIN, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Temple-Inland Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of International Paper Company. On completion of the acquisition, Deltic owned 100 percent of the membership interest in the Arkansas limited liability company. Deltic acquired the 50 percent interest for $5,156,000 in cash and the assumption of $14,844,000 in debt guarantees.

Deltic will account for the acquisition under ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” and Del-Tin Fiber’s results of operations will be included in Deltic’s consolidated financial statements beginning with the date of acquisition. Given the date of the acquisition, the Company has not completed the valuation of assets acquired or liabilities assumed. The Company anticipates providing a preliminary purchase price allocation to be recognized in the second quarter Form 10-Q to be filed on or before August 9, 2013.

The following unaudited pro forma for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 represents the results of operations of Deltic Timber Corporation as if Del-Tin Fiber, LLC had been a wholly owned subsidiary as of January 1, 2012.

On May 2, 2013, the Company amended and extended its unsecured and committed revolving credit facility. The amended facility allows $340,000,000 of borrowings and will mature on May 2, 2018. Deltic incurred $765,000 in fees to facilitate the amendment, which will be amortized over the length of the agreement.

Note 15 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value Measurement Accounting establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the quality of inputs used to measure fair value, with Level 1 being the highest quality and Level 3 being the lowest quality. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets on identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect assumptions about pricing by market participants.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

Nonqualified employee savings plan –Consists of mutual funds, which are valued at the net asset value of shares held by the plan at the balance sheet date, at quoted market prices.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Executive Overview

The Company reported net income of $6.8 million for the first quarter of 2013, a $6.7 million increase from the same period of 2012. The Woodlands segment provided $4.6 million in operating income in the current year quarter, $.2 million less than in the same period a year ago. The Manufacturing segment (formerly referred to as the Mills segment) reported operating income of $11.3 million, an increase of $9.7 million when compared to the first quarter of 2012. The improvement was due to a higher per-unit average sales price and increased sales volume caused by the increased demand for lumber as the recovery of the housing market continued into 2013. The Real Estate segment reported an operating loss of $.7 million for the first quarter of 2013, a $.1 million improvement from the first quarter of 2012. Corporate segment operating expense was $4.6 million in the first quarter of 2013, a $.3 million increase from the prior-year first quarter due primarily to higher general and administrative expenses. Deltic owned a 50 percent interest in Del-Tin Fiber, LLC (“Del-Tin Fiber”) and recorded equity in earnings of $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2013, an increase of $1 million from a year ago, due primarily to a higher average sales price. Deltic completed the acquisition of the other half of the ownership of Del-Tin Fiber from its joint venture partner on April 1, 2013 and will include Del-Tin Fiber as a consolidated subsidiary in subsequent quarters.

Deltic is primarily a wood products producer operating in a commodity-based business environment, with a major diversification in real estate development. The Company’s operations and financial results are affected by a number of factors which include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, U.S. employment levels, interest rates, credit availability and associated costs, lumber and building product imports, foreign exchange rates, housing starts, new and existing home inventories, residential and commercial real estate foreclosures, residential and commercial repair and remodeling, commercial construction, industry capacity and production levels, the availability of raw materials, natural gas pricing and weather conditions. Steadily improving employment levels, combined with near record-low mortgage rates, have positively influenced the U.S. housing market. This improvement is evidenced by the increased number of housing starts and a declining inventory of unsold homes. These factors have also been reflected in a higher average sales price for lumber and an improved market for residential lots as consumers and builders gain confidence in the recovery of the housing market. As with most markets, and given Deltic’s relative size, the Company maintains little or no influence over the market’s pricing levels for its wood products. However, Deltic’s management will continue to use its vertical integration strategy, diverse assets, and ability to quickly adapt production levels to capture market opportunities being created by the housing recovery.

The Woodlands segment serves as the core of Deltic’s vertical integration structure, supplying a significant percentage of the Manufacturing segment’s raw material stumpage needs. The pine sawtimber harvest in the first quarter of 2013 was 181,069 tons, a five percent increase from the 173,007 tons harvested in the first quarter of 2012 due to favorable logging conditions. The average per-ton price for pine sawtimber was $23, compared to $22 per ton received in 2012’s first quarter. Pine pulpwood harvest volume for the first quarter of 2013 was 97,010 tons, a 37,924 ton decrease from the first quarter of 2012, primarily due to the composition of the timberland being harvested, while the average sales price remained steady at $9 per ton for both quarters. During the current year quarter, the Company sold 288 acres of non-strategic recreational-use bottomland, at an average sales price of $1,806 per acre versus 270 acres at $1,448 per acre in 2012’s first quarter. During the first quarter of 2013, Deltic acquired approximately 6,700 acres of pine timberland holdings within its current operating regions.

The Woodlands segment’s operating results include other benefits derived from land ownership such as revenues from hunting leases, mineral lease rentals, mineral royalties, and land easements. Hunting lease revenues were $.6 million in the first quarter of 2013 and 2012. Oil and gas lease rental income was $.4 million in the current year first quarter, a decrease of $.1 million from the same period of 2012, as the original lease periods on some acreages have ended and the properties are now being held by producing wells. Oil and gas royalty payments are received primarily from wells in the Fayetteville Shale Play and totaled $.9 million in the first quarter of 2013, which compares with the $1.1 million received in the first quarter a year ago. The decline is due primarily to the decrease in production volumes of natural gas. The ultimate benefit to Deltic from mineral leases remains speculative and

20

unknown to the Company and is contingent on the successful completion of producing wells on Company lands and the prices received for crude oil and natural gas.

The Manufacturing segment sold 71.1 million board feet of lumber in the first quarter of 2013, an increase of 6.1 million board feet when compared to 65 million board feet sold in the same period of 2012. The nine percent increase in sales volume was due to the continuing recovery in the wood products market. The average lumber sales price of $402 per thousand board feet received in the current quarter was a $131 per thousand board feet, or 48 percent, increase from the same period of 2012. In addition to increasing operating hours at the sawmills to increase production volume, the segment also benefited from increased hourly productivity rates. Because of the historical volatility in the lumber markets, Deltic closely monitors market conditions and plans to react quickly to adjust production levels to meet changes in demand.

The Real Estate segment sold 12 residential lots during the first quarter of 2013, with an average per-lot sales price of $74,400, compared to sales of 7 lots with an average per-lot sales price of $67,100 in 2012’s first quarter. The increase in the per-lot sales price was due to the mix of lots sold. No commercial acreage sales occurred in either the first quarter of 2013 or 2012. Commercial real estate acreage within Chenal Valley continues to receive interest from potential buyers, especially multi-family tracts; property located near “The Promenade at Chenal,” an upscale shopping center that includes internationally branded retailers; and property located adjacent to St. Vincent West, a medical center that recently opened. However, due to the unpredictable nature of commercial real estate sales activity, the Company cannot anticipate the timing of closing for any commercial real estate transaction.

Operating results for Del-Tin Fiber are affected by the overall medium density fiberboard (“MDF”) market and the plant’s operating performance. Deltic’s equity in the earnings of Del-Tin Fiber was $1.1 million for the current-year quarter versus $.1 million for the same period of 2012 due primarily to a higher average sales price in the current-year period, as the market for MDF continued to improve. Regarding the Company’s equity position in Del-Tin Fiber for the quarter just ended, Deltic continued to reduce depreciation expense related to the add-back per thousand square feet manufactured, which relates to the impairment taken by the Company in 2002 that was not recorded at the Del-Tin Fiber level. As a result, the difference in basis between the Company and Del-Tin Fiber continued to be adjusted to account for Del-Tin Fiber’s operating results as if it were a consolidated subsidiary through the end of the first quarter of 2013. Effective in the second quarter of 2013, concurrent with the acquisition of 100 percent ownership of the facility, financial results of Del-Tin Fiber will be included in Deltic’s Manufacturing segment. (For further discussion, refer to Notes 4 and 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.)

Results of Operations

In the following tables, Deltic’s net sales and results of operations are presented for the quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. Explanations of significant variances and additional analyses for the Company’s consolidated and segment operations follow the tables.

Consolidated

Net income in the first quarter of 2013 was $6.8 million, a $6.7 million increase from the first quarter of 2012. Improved results for the Manufacturing segment and higher equity in earnings of Del-Tin Fiber were slightly offset by lower financial results from Woodlands and by increased Corporate general and administrative expenses.

Operating income increased $9.4 million. The Woodlands segment decreased $.2 million from 2012’s first quarter. Lower revenues from pine pulpwood, as well as lower revenues from oil and gas leases and royalties were partially offset by increased revenues from pine sawtimber and land sales. The Manufacturing segment increased $9.7 million due to increased sales volumes, a higher average lumber sales price, and improved hourly productivity rates. The Real Estate segment benefited from sales of five more residential lots in the first quarter of 2013 than in the first quarter of 2012. Corporate expenses were higher due primarily to higher general and administrative expenses.

Timberland
Net sales (millions of dollars)	$	.5		.4
Sales volume (acres)		288		270
Sales price (per acre)	$	1,806		1,448

Net sales decreased $.7 million when compared to the 2012 first quarter. Pine sawtimber sales were higher by $.4 million due to a five percent increase in both stumpage prices and harvest volume. Pine pulpwood sales were lower $.3 million due to lower harvest volumes in 2013. Revenues from sales of non-strategic timberland were $.1 million higher primarily due to an increase in the average sales price per acre. Oil and gas lease rental revenue was $.1 million lower in the current period, as the original lease periods on some acreage have ended and those properties are now held by producing wells. Oil and gas royalty revenues decreased $.2 million from the amount received in the first quarter of 2012 due primarily to lower production volumes of natural gas. Revenue from hauling stumpage to other mills was $.6 million lower compared to the 2012 first quarter primarily due to the decreased pine pulpwood harvest. Operating income was $.2 million less than in the 2012 first quarter due to the same factors affecting net sales, combined with higher replanting costs, but were partially offset by lower cull timber removal expenses and lower freight expense.

Manufacturing

Selected financial and statistical data for the Manufacturing segment is shown in the following table.

	Quarter Ended March 31,
	2013		2012
Net sales (millions of dollars)
Lumber	$	28.6		17.6

Finished production (MMBF)		70.4		66.0
Sales volume (MMBF)		71.1		65.0
Sales price (per MBF)	$	402		271

Net sales increased $11.5 million over the first quarter of 2012. The average lumber sales price in the current-year first quarter was $131 per MBF, or 48 percent, higher than the prior year. This increase, along with a 9 percent higher sales volume, was the result of an increased demand for lumber. Operating income for the Manufacturing segment was $9.7 million greater in 2013 due to the same items affecting net sales, combined with higher productivity rates.

Real Estate

Selected financial and statistical data for the Real Estate segment is shown in the following table.

	Quarter Ended March 31,
	2013		2012
Net sales (millions of dollars)
Residential lots	$	.9		.5
Chenal Country Club		1.3		1.3
Sales volume
Residential lots		12		7
Average sales price (thousands of dollars)
Residential lots	$	74		67

Net sales for the first quarter of 2013 were $.4 million higher due to the increase in the number of residential lots sold. The improved operating income in first quarter 2013 was due primarily to the increase in the number of residential lots sold and reduced operating expenses.

Corporate

The $.3 million increase in operating expense for Corporate functions was due to higher general and administrative expenses, primarily due to incentive plan expenses resulting from improved financial results in 2013.

Eliminations

Intersegment sales of timber from Deltic’s Woodlands to the Manufacturing segment increased to $4.2 million in the 2013 first quarter. During the first quarter of 2013, Deltic transferred an increased volume of fee timber to its sawmills, at a slightly higher per-ton transfer price. Transfer prices approximate that of the market. Intercompany sales elimination exceeded the intercompany cost elimination by $.1 million as the percentage of intercompany fee timber in inventory increased during the current period.

Equity in Del-Tin Fiber

For the first quarter of 2013, Deltic’s equity in Del-Tin Fiber was $1.1 million, an increase of $1 million from the first quarter of 2012, mainly due to a higher average sales price caused by a strengthening MDF market. During the second quarter of 2013, Deltic completed the acquisition of the remaining 50 percent ownership of Del-Tin Fiber and will include the results of Del-Tin Fiber in its Manufacturing segment in subsequent quarters. For additional information, refer to Notes 4 and 14 of the consolidated financial statements.

Additional selected financial and statistical data for Del-Tin Fiber is shown in the following table.

	Quarter Ended March 31,
	2013		2012
Net sales (millions of dollars)	$	16.7		14.6
Finished production (MMSF)		30.3		29.6
Sales volume (MMSF)		29.1		30.1
Sales price (per MSF)	$	573		485

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate was 36 percent for 2013 and 34 percent for the first quarter of 2012. The effective income tax rate was higher in 2013 primarily due to higher pretax income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows and Capital Expenditures

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $9 million for the first three months of 2013 compared to $2.1 million in 2012. Cash from operations and borrowings on the revolving credit facility have provided the cash needed for capital expenditures (which include amounts for timberland purchased) and the acquisition of the remaining ownership of Del-Tin Fiber on April 1, 2013. Changes in operating working capital, other than cash and cash equivalents, required cash of $.4 million and $1.4 million in 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company’s accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows identifies other differences between net income and cash provided or required by operating activities for each reporting period.

Capital expenditures required cash of $12 million in the current-year period and $3.6 million a year ago. Capital expenditures by segment consisted of the following:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
(Thousands of dollars)	2013			2012
Woodlands, including land exchanges	$	10,279			2,679
Manufacturing		2,788			850
Real Estate, including development expenditures		342			182
Corporate		4			4
Capital expenditures		13,413			3,715
Non-cash land exchanges and accrued liabilities		(1,389	)		(132	)
Capital expenditures requiring cash	$	12,024			3,583

The net change in purchased stumpage inventory to be utilized in the Company’s sawmill operations used cash of $.9 million in 2013 and $.3 million in 2012. The Company advanced Del-Tin Fiber $1 million in the first quarter of 2013, and received repayments of $.7 million. This compares to advances of $.8 million and repayments of $.7 million in the same period of 2012. Funds held by trustees to be used for acquisitions of timberland designated as “replacement property” for income tax purposes, as required for tax-deferred exchanges, decreased $.6 million in 2012 versus no change in 2013. Deltic received proceeds from other investing activities of $.2 million in both 2013 and 2012. Deltic had $12 million in net borrowings in 2013 versus $1 million in 2012. Deltic paid dividends on common stock of $1.3 million in 2013 and $.9 million in 2012 as the quarterly dividend per share was increased. Proceeds from stock option exercises and related tax benefits were $.9 million in 2013 and 2012.

Financial Condition

Working capital totaled $12.3 million at March 31, 2013, and $5.6 million at December 31, 2012. Deltic’s working capital ratio at March 31, 2013 was 1.70 to 1, compared to 1.43 to 1 at the end of 2012. Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the first quarter of 2013 increased $7.8 million from December 31, 2012. Deltic’s long-term debt to stockholders’ equity ratio was .313 to 1 at March 31, 2013 and .271 to 1 at December 31, 2012.

Liquidity

The primary sources of the Company’s liquidity are internally generated funds, access to outside financing, and working capital. The Company’s current strategy for growth continues to emphasize its timberland acquisition program, in addition to expanding lumber production as market conditions allow and developing residential and/or commercial properties at Chenal Valley and Red Oak Ridge.

To facilitate these growth plans, the Company has an agreement with a group of banks, which provides an unsecured and committed revolving credit facility totaling $297.5 million, inclusive of a $50 million letter of credit feature. As of March 31, 2013, there was $35 million outstanding in borrowings on the credit facility in anticipation of the Del-Tin Fiber acquisition on April 1, 2013 and other committed

25

capital expenditures, leaving $262.5 million available. The agreement was scheduled to expire on September 9, 2015 but was amended and extended in the second quarter of 2013. The amended facility totals $340 million and will mature May 2, 2018. The credit agreement contains restrictive covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of debt and requirements to maintain certain financial ratios, and this amendment did not include any changes to these covenants. (For additional information about the Company’s current financing arrangements, refer to Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements and Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2012 annual report on Form 10-K.)

The table below sets forth the most restrictive ratio of covenants in the credit facility and Senior Notes Payable and status with respect to these covenants as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

	Covenants Requirements			Actual Ratios at March 31, 2013			Actual Ratios at Dec. 31, 2012
Leverage ratio should be less than:1		.60 to 1			.275 to 1			.253 to 1
Total outstanding debt as a percentage of total debt allowed based on the minimum timber market value covenant:2		—	2		48.15	%		44.15	%
Fixed charge coverage ratio should be greater than:3		2.50 to 1			7.37 to 1			5.39 to 1

¹  The leverage ratio is calculated as total debt divided by total capital. Total debt includes indebtedness for borrowed money, secured liabilities, obligations in respect of letters of credit, and guarantees. Total capital is the sum of total debt and net worth. Net worth is calculated as total assets minus total liabilities, as reflected on the balance sheet. This covenant is applied at the end of each quarter. The revolving credit facility requirement is for the leverage ratio to be less than .65 to 1.

²  Timber market value must be greater than 200 percent of total debt (as defined in (1) above). The timber market value is calculated by multiplying the average price received for sales of timber for the preceding four quarters by the current quarter’s ending inventory of timber. This covenant is applied at the end of the quarter on a rolling four-quarter basis. The revolving credit facility requirement is for the timber market value to be greater than 175 percent of total debt (as defined in (1) above).

³  The fixed charge coverage ratio is calculated as EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, and amortization) increased by non-cash compensation expense and other non-cash expenses and decreased by dividends paid and income tax paid, divided by the sum of interest expense and scheduled principal payments made on debt during the period. This covenant is applied at the end of the quarter on a rolling four-quarter basis. This covenant only applies to the Senior Notes Payable.

Based on management’s current operating projections, the Company believes it will remain in compliance with the debt covenants and have sufficient liquidity to finance operations and pay all obligations. However, depending on future market conditions and the possibility of the return of economic deterioration, the Company may need to request amendments, or waivers for the covenants, or obtain refinancing in future periods. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain amendments or waivers, or negotiate agreeable refinancing terms should it become needed.

In December 2000, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $10 million of Deltic common stock. In December 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors expanded the program by $25 million. As of March 31, 2013, the Company had expended $14.6 million under this program, with the purchase of 370,530 shares at an average cost of $39.28 per share; no shares were purchased from 2010 to 2013, 35,571 shares were purchased in 2009, 129,996 shares were purchased in 2008, 101,914 shares were purchased under this program in 2007, and seven shares in 2006. In its two previous repurchase programs, Deltic purchased 479,601 shares at an average cost of $20.89 and 419,542 shares at a $24.68 per share average cost, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Contractual Obligations, and Commitments

On August 26, 2004, Del-Tin Fiber refinanced its existing long-term debt by entering into a credit agreement consisting of a letter of credit and term loan with multiple lending institutions. The funds provided from this credit agreement were used, together with the existing balance in Del-Tin Fiber’s debt service reserve and bond sinking fund accounts, to redeem $60 million of its $89 million industrial revenue bonds. Under the new credit agreement, the lenders, on September 1, 2004, issued on Del-Tin Fiber’s behalf, a letter of credit in the amount of $29.7 million to support the remaining industrial revenue bonds originally issued in 1998 by Union County, Arkansas. Concurrent with this event, on August 26, 2004, Deltic executed a guarantee agreement in connection with the refinancing of the debt of Del-Tin Fiber. Under Deltic’s guarantee agreement, Deltic unconditionally guarantees the due and punctual payment of 50 percent ($14.5 million at March 31, 2013) of Del-Tin’s obligation under its credit agreement. Deltic considers the current status of the payment and performance risk of this guarantee to be low based on the length of time remaining on the guarantee. Effective with becoming the 100 percent owner of Del-Tin Fiber on April 1, 2013, Deltic assumed the guarantee agreement for the full $29 million in debt.

The Company has both funded and unfunded noncontributory defined benefit retirement plans that cover the majority of its employees. The plans provide defined benefits based on years of service and final average salary. Deltic also has other postretirement benefit plans covering substantially all of its employees. The health care plan is contributory with participants’ contributions adjusted as needed; the life insurance plan is noncontributory. With regards to all of the Company’s employee and retiree benefit plans, Deltic is unaware of any trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in the Company’s liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way. (For information about material assumptions underlying the accounting for these plans and other components of the plans, refer to Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2012 annual report on Form 10-K.)

Tabular summaries of the Company’s contractual cash payment obligations and other commercial commitment expirations, by period, are presented in the following tables.

Outlook

Deltic’s management believes that cash provided from its operations and the remaining amount available under its credit facility will be sufficient to meet its expected cash needs and planned expenditures, including those of the Company’s continued timberland acquisition, real estate

27

development, and stock repurchase programs, additional advances to Del-Tin Fiber, and capital expenditures, for the foreseeable future.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. The Company has prepared its consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in these financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company has disclosed its critical accounting policies in its 2012 annual report on Form 10-K, and this disclosure should be read in conjunction with this Form 10-Q.

Impact of Recently Effective Accounting Pronouncements

(For information regarding the impact of recently effective accounting pronouncements, refer to Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements.)

Outlook

Pine sawtimber harvest levels are expected to be 160,000 to 170,000 tons in the second quarter of 2013 and 585,000 to 605,000 tons for the year. Finished lumber sales volume is estimated at 65 to 75 million board feet for the second quarter and 275 to 290 million board feet for the year. MDF sales volumes for the second quarter and year of 2013 are estimated to be 30 to 32 million square feet and 120 to 130 million square feet, respectively. Actual lumber and MDF sales volumes are subject to market conditions. Residential lot sales are projected to be 10 to 15 lots and 50 to 60 lots for the second quarter and the year, respectively. Even though commercial acreage in Chenal Valley has received interest from potential buyers, it is difficult to anticipate future closings due to the volatile nature of commercial real estate transactions and the significant number of factors related to any sale.
