NOTE 3 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY AND COMMON SHARES OUTSTANDING
Stockholders' equity at October 31, 1994 consists of the
following:
Series A preferred stock, $100 per share liquidation preference;
500,000 shares authorized; 270,079 shares issued and outstanding;
limited voting rights; cumulative dividends payable quarterly in
advance at the prime rate, with a minimum rate of 6% and a maximum

NOTE 5 - PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
The income tax provision is based on the estimated effective
annual tax rate for each fiscal year. The provision includes
anticipated current income taxes payable, the tax effect of
anticipated differences between financial reporting and tax basis
of assets and liabilities and the expected utilization of net
operating loss carryforwards.
At October 31, 1994, the Company had a valuation allowance of
approximately $10.3 million which represents the tax benefit of
substantially all of the unused net operating loss carryforward.
Management periodically assesses the likelihood for future
utilization of the net operating loss carryforward and changes the
amount of the valuation allowance as facts and circumstances
dictate.
NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is involved in various litigation primarily arising
in the normal course of its business. In the opinion of
management, the Company's liability, if any, under such pending
litigation would not have a material adverse impact upon the
Company's consolidated financial condition or results of
operations.
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
- - ---------------------
On a quarter-to-quarter basis, the Company's financial results
have varied widely, and will continue to vary, due to seasonal
fluctuations and market factors affecting the demand for logs,
lumber and other wood products. The industry is subject to
fluctuations in sales and earnings due to such factors as industry
production in relation to product demand and variations in interest
rates and housing starts. Currency fluctuations affect the forest
products industry when exchange rates spur log exports and drive up
domestic log prices, and when a relatively strong U.S. Dollar
encourages lumber imports from other countries.
The industry is also affected by weather conditions and changing
timber management policies. Fire danger and excessively dry or wet
conditions temporarily reduce logging activity and may increase
open market log prices. Timber management policies of various
governmental agencies change from time to time, causing actual or
feared shortages in some areas periodically. These policies change
because of environmental concerns, public agency budget issues, and
a variety of other reasons. Therefore, past results for any given
year or quarter are not necessarily indicative of future results.
It is generally the Company's practice to curtail production at
facilities from time to time due to conditions which temporarily
impair log flow, or when imbalances between log costs and product
prices cause the cost of operation to exceed the cost of shutdown.
Management believes its labor practices and compensation systems,
as well as a relatively low capital cost in relation to production
capacity, give it the flexibility to efficiently curtail operations
and resume production as conditions warrant.
Raw materials comprise the majority of the cost of products sold
by the Company. The Company depends principally on open market log
purchases for its raw materials needs. WTD's log inventory policy
is to maintain, where possible, a supply equal to three to four
weeks of production.
In the last three years, lumber prices rose sharply during the
winter and spring months in anticipation of the coming building
season. However, prices then fell as the building season actually
commenced. During the first half of calendar 1994, prices declined
steadily from peaks reached in December 1993. Log prices did not
decline as quickly as lumber prices during this period, resulting
in lower gross margins.
Log prices, while very high by historical standards, generally
allow a gross profit margin at current lumber prices. However,
there can be no assurance that the margins recently experienced by
the Company will continue or improve.
The following table sets forth the percentages which certain
expenses and income items bear to net sales, and the period-to-
period percentage change in each item.

Comparison of Three Months Ended October 31, 1994 and 1993
- - ----------------------------------------------------------
Net sales for the three months ended October 31, 1994 increased
$13.3 million (20%) from the three months ended October 31, 1993.
This was principally caused by a 27% increase in lumber shipments
and a 13% increase in chip deliveries, partially offset by a 4%
decrease in lumber prices.
Gross profit for the quarter ended October 31, 1994 was 8% of
net sales, compared to 10.4% of net sales for the quarter ended
October 31, 1993. The margin between the Company's average lumber
sales prices and average raw materials costs on a unit basis was 7%
lower in the second quarter of fiscal 1995 than in the comparable
period last year. Such lumber prices declined by 4% from the
quarter ended October 31, 1993, while the Company's log costs
declined by only 3%.
Selling, general and administrative (S, G & A) expenses in the
three months ended October 31, 1994 decreased by $0.2 million (6%)
from the three months ended October 31, 1993. This decrease was
due to lower profit sharing bonus payments stemming from lower
pretax profits as well as the Company's continued focus on cost
control. S, G & A expenses were 3.7% of net sales in the quarter
ended October 31, 1994, compared to 4.7% of net sales in the
quarter ended October 31, 1993.
Reorganization credits in the quarter ended October 31, 1993
principally reflect the disposal of certain assets associated with
the Company's idle facilities at amounts in excess of their
carrying values, resulting in net gains of about $0.6 million.
In the quarter ended October 31, 1994, the Company recorded a
tax provision resulting in 25% of pretax profits for the six months
ended October 31, 1994. In the quarter ended October 31, 1993, the
Company recorded a tax provision resulting in 22% of pretax profits
for the six months ended October 31, 1993.
Comparison of Six Months Ended October 31, 1994 and 1993
- - --------------------------------------------------------
Net sales for the six months ended October 31, 1994 increased
$35.9 million (30%) from the six months ended October 31, 1993.
This increase was principally caused by a 33% increase in lumber
shipments, a 22% increase in chip deliveries and a 1% increase in
lumber prices. The higher lumber shipments and chip deliveries in
the current year resulted from production curtailments in the
quarter ended July 31, 1993 caused by an adverse relationship
between product prices and raw material costs. In addition,
several mills increased their productivity from the prior six month
period.
Gross profit for the six months ended October 31, 1994 was 7.6%
of net sales, compared to 6.8% of net sales for the six months
ended October 31, 1993. The margin between the Company's average
lumber prices and log costs on a unit basis improved by 8% in the
first half of fiscal 1995 over the comparable period in fiscal
1994, as product prices improved slightly and log prices were
slightly lower.
S,G&A expenses in the six months ended October 31, 1994
increased by $0.1 million (1.2%) from the six months ended October
31, 1993. S,G& A expenses were 3.6% of sales in the six months
ended October 31, 1994 and 4.6% of sales in the six months ended
October 31, 1993.
During the six months ended October 31, 1993, the Company
disposed of certain assets associated with its idle facilities at
amounts in excess of their carrying values. This resulted in net
gains of about $1.7 million, which were recognized as
reorganization credits. Reorganization credits in the six months
ended October 31, 1994 reflect settlement of certain pre-petition
obligations at less than their carrying value.
During the quarter ended October 31, 1994, the Company recorded
a tax provision resulting in 25% of pretax profits for the six
months ended October 31, 1994. During the quarter ended October
31, 1993, the Company recorded a tax provision resulting in 22% of
pretax profits for the six months ended October 31, 1993. The
provisions reflect the estimated rate for the fiscal year, given
current income expectations for the balance of the year and
utilization of net operating loss carryforwards.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- - -------------------------------
The Company relies on cash provided by its operations to fund
its working capital needs. There can be no assurance that such
cash will be sufficient to fund the Company's future operations.
Substantially all of the Company's assets are pledged as security
for its various debt obligations.
During the six months ended October 31, 1994, the Company's cash
and cash equivalents increased by $5.8 million, to $13.9 million at
October 31. The increase was principally caused by profitable
operations, the return of deposits held to secure various
obligations and a reduction of timber and related assets. These
items were partially offset by capital spending, the prepayment of
certain debt obligations and scheduled principal repayments.
Working capital decreased by $1.4 million during the first six
months of fiscal 1995, to $43.4 million at October 31. This was
principally the result of capital spending, scheduled principal
payments and optional prepayments of certain debts, offset by
profitable operating activity and the return of cash deposits used
to secure certain obligations.
During the quarter ended October 31, 1994, the Company entered
into bonding agreements for its timber acquisition and workers'
compensation self-insurance (WCSI) activities. Such bonding
allowed the return of approximately $2.1 million in cash deposits
the Company had made to secure its timber and WCSI activities.
During this same period, the Company repurchased $0.7 million of
its unsecured debt at a discount from its carrying value, and made
a voluntary prepayment of $2.8 million on its senior secured debt.
Approximately 75% of the prepayment was deemed to reduce twelve
scheduled quarterly principal payments beginning on March 15, 1995
and ending on December 15, 1997. The remaining 25% of the
prepayment was applied to the final maturity of the senior secured
debt.
Capital spending in the first six months of fiscal 1995 was $3.4
million. Capital spending for the balance of the fiscal year is
currently forecast to be approximately $2.6 million. The Company
had commitments for capital spending of about $300,000 at October
31, 1994.
