Total U.S. housing starts improved 11% in 2015, with single-family starts up 10% from 2014. The February 2016 Blue Chip consensus forecast for 2016 reflects 1.25 million total U.S. housing starts, a 13% expected increase from 2015 levels. Total housing activity levels remain below the historical average for the last 30 years of approximately 1.4 million starts per year.
"Our Wood Products' operating results were negatively impacted by the continued erosion in plywood and pine lumber pricing during 2015. Plywood markets were very challenging in the fourth quarter of 2015 and, disappointingly, pricing has eroded further as we begin 2016. With the strength of the U.S. dollar attracting imports and the planned ramp up of a new plywood mill this spring in Mississippi by a private
equity firm, the oversupply situation is likely to continue until demand improves seasonally or domestic production declines," commented Tom Corrick, CEO. "We expect the housing recovery to continue in 2016, with U.S. starts for the year projected to be between 1.20 and 1.25 million. Increased housing construction should provide a favorable backdrop for engineered wood products in our manufacturing business, as well as revenue and earnings growth in our distribution business."
During 2015, the Company took several steps toward increasing its mid-cycle earnings capacity. It commenced the modernization of its Florien, Louisiana, plywood facility, and the new dryer at Florien is expected to start-up in second quarter 2016. The Company also replaced a dryer at its Chester, South Carolina plywood facility. The Florien and Chester projects are expected to reduce manufacturing costs and increase internal veneer production.
Wood Products
Sales, including sales to our Building Materials Distribution (BMD) segment, decreased $24.7 million, or 8%, to $292.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015, from $317.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014. The decrease in sales was driven primarily by decreases in plywood and lumber sales prices of 19% and 16%, respectively, and decreases in plywood and lumber sales volumes of 3% and 9%, respectively. The declines in plywood and lumber volumes resulted from production curtailments in the fourth quarter of 2015 in response to market conditions. The decreases in plywood and lumber sales were offset partially by increases in sales volumes of I-joists and LVL (collectively EWP) of 17% and 10%, respectively. Wood Products EBITDA decreased $25.4 million to $8.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015, from $34.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014. The decrease in EBITDA was due primarily to lower plywood and lumber sales prices, offset partially by higher EWP sales volumes.
For the year ended December 31, 2015, sales, including sales to BMD, decreased $34.9 million, or 3%, to $1,282.1 million from $1,317.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. Plywood and lumber sales prices decreased 7% and 14%, respectively, and plywood and lumber sales volumes decreased 1% and 3%, respectively. These decreases were offset partially by sales volume increases of 6% in LVL and 4% in I-joists, as well as sales price increases of 3% in I-joists and 1% in LVL. Wood Products EBITDA decreased $42.3 million to $107.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, from $149.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease in EBITDA was due primarily to lower plywood and lumber sales prices, offset partially by improved EWP pricing and sales volumes.
Comparative average net selling prices and sales volume changes for plywood, EWP, and lumber are as follows:

Building Materials Distribution
Sales increased $38.0 million, or 6%, to $707.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015, from $669.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2014. Compared with the same quarter in the prior year, the overall increase in sales was driven by sales volume increases of 11%, offset partially by a decrease in sales prices of 5%. By product line, sales of EWP increased 12%, general line product sales increased 10%, and commodity sales increased 1%. BMD's EBITDA increased $5.3 million from the comparative prior year quarter, driven primarily by a higher gross margin of $11.4 million, including an improvement in gross margin percentage of 100 basis points. This increase was offset partially by higher selling and distribution expenses of $5.5 million.
For the year ended December 31, 2015, sales increased $104.6 million, or 4%, to $2,891.3 million from $2,786.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The increase in sales was driven primarily by sales volume increases of 7%, offset partially by a decrease in sales prices of 3%. By product line, general line product sales increased 11%, sales of EWP increased 8%, and commodity sales decreased 2%. BMD EBITDA increased $6.2 million to $72.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, from $66.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The increase in EBITDA was driven primarily by a higher gross margin of $18.4 million, including an improvement in gross margin percentage of 20 basis points. This improvement was offset partially by increased selling and distribution expenses of $9.9 million and lower other income due to a $1.6 million gain from the sale of two surplus properties during the year ended December 31, 2014.
Corporate and Other
Segment EBITDA was negative $21.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared with negative $19.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The increase primarily relates to increased pension expense of $2.8 million resulting from a change in classification of pension expense between segments. In addition, information technology and lease costs each increased by $0.5 million, offset partially by lower incentive compensation of $1.9 million.
Balance Sheet
Boise Cascade ended 2015 with $184.5 million of cash and cash equivalents and $258.6 million of undrawn committed bank line availability, for total available liquidity of $443.1 million. The Company reported $344.6 million of outstanding debt at December 31, 2015. At year-end 2015, we adopted a new accounting standard which requires us to present debt issuance costs as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Accordingly, the reported $344.6 million of outstanding debt at December 31, 2015 is presented net of $6.6 million of unamortized debt issuance costs.
Recent Developments
In December 2015, the Company reached agreement to purchase Georgia-Pacific's two engineered lumber facilities located in Thorsby, Alabama and Roxboro, North Carolina for $215 million. The acquisition transaction is expected to be completed in the first half of 2016, following regulatory approval. The Company plans to fund the acquisition and related transaction costs with approximately $90 million of cash on hand and $130 million in new debt.
Outlook
Boise Cascade remains committed to generating shareholder value through organic earnings growth, acquisitions, as well as opportunistic share repurchases. The Company expects its capital expenditures during 2016 to be $85-$95 million, as it completes the dryer project at its Florien, Louisiana plywood facility, and initiates the restart of laminated veneer lumber production in Roxboro, North Carolina, following completion of the pending acquisition. Boise Cascade has approximately 1.3 million shares remaining on the 2 million share repurchase program authorized by its board of directors in February 2015.
As in recent years, we expect to continue to experience modest demand growth for the products we manufacture and distribute in 2016. However, the level of construction activity is expected to remain below 30-year average historical levels. Future commodity product pricing could be volatile in response to industry
operating rates, net import and export activity, inventory levels in various distribution channels, and seasonal demand patterns. We expect to manage our production levels to our sales demand, which will likely result in operating some of our facilities below their capacity until demand further improves.
In first quarter 2016, we expect to report lower EBITDA in our Wood Products business compared to first quarter 2015 primarily as a result of lower plywood and lumber prices. Our first quarter 2016 EBITDA results in BMD are expected to improve from the EBITDA results reported in first quarter 2015, but will likely be lower than the results reported in fourth quarter 2015.

Basis of Presentation
We refer to the term EBITDA in this earnings release as a supplemental measure of our performance and liquidity that is not required by or presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). We define EBITDA as income before interest (interest expense and interest income), income taxes, and depreciation and amortization.
EBITDA is the primary measure used by our management to evaluate segment operating performance and to decide how to allocate resources to segments. We believe EBITDA is useful to investors because it provides a means to evaluate the operating performance of our segments and our Company on an ongoing basis using criteria that are used by our management and because it is frequently used by investors and other interested parties when comparing companies in our industry that have different financing and capital structures and/or tax rates. We believe EBITDA is a meaningful measure because it presents a transparent view of our recurring operating performance and allows management to readily view operating trends, perform analytical comparisons, and identify strategies to improve operating performance. EBITDA, however, is not a measure of our liquidity or financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, income from operations, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. The use of EBITDA instead of net income or segment income (loss) has limitations as an analytical tool, including the inability to determine profitability; the exclusion of interest expense, interest income, and associated significant cash requirements; and the exclusion of depreciation and amortization, which represent unavoidable operating costs. Management compensates for these limitations by relying on our GAAP results. Our measure of EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to potential inconsistencies in the methods of calculation.

(b) | Prior to first quarter 2015, pension expense (which is primarily comprised of interest cost, expected return on plan assets, and amortization of actuarial losses) was recorded in each of our segments based on the associated individual employee roles and responsibilities. However, pension benefits are frozen for most employees and only a small number of hourly employees continue to accrue benefits. Therefore, management believes that recording pension expense in the Corporate and Other segment provides a clearer view of segment operating performance. In first quarter 2015, we made a change in our segment measurement method by recording all pension expense to the Corporate and Other segment. This change in measurement only impacts our segment disclosures, and thus it has no impact on our overall consolidated financial statements. Historical segment income (loss) and EBITDA has not been recast. For the three months ended December 31, 2014, $0.1 million of pension expense was recorded in each of the Wood Products and Building Materials Distribution segments. We recorded an insignificant amount of pension income in the three months ended December 31, 2015. For the year ended December 31, 2014, pension expense of $0.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively, was recorded in the Wood Products and Building Materials Distribution segments. Pension expense recorded in Corporate and Other was $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. |
