========== ==========
NOTE 3 - LONG-TERM DEBT
The Company's primary debt agreement includes certain
covenants, including the maintenance of specified levels of
adjusted cumulative operating income (as defined), tangible net
worth, working capital, and collateral coverage (as defined). This
agreement also imposes certain restrictions and limitations on
capital expenditures, investments, dividend payments, new
indebtedness, and transactions with officers, directors,
shareholders and affiliates. This debt agreement was amended as of
January 1, 1996, with respect to certain affirmative financial
performance covenants.
At January 31, 1996 the Company's tangible net worth was $12.9
million, compared to $11.0 million required by the covenant. At
that same date, the Company's working capital was $23.6 million,
compared to $19.0 million required by the covenant. Also, at
January 31, 1996, the Company's adjusted cumulative operating
income was $19.7 million, compared to $19.0 million required. The
collateral coverage ratio at January 31, 1996 was 58.3%, compared
to a 54% minimum required level. The required level of working
capital increases to $25.0 million on July 1, 1996. The required
level of tangible net worth increases to $15.0 million from July 1,
1996 through April 30, 1998. The required level of adjusted
cumulative operating income increases to $27.5 million at July 1,
1996, $35.0 million at May 1, 1997 and $50.0 million at May 1,
1998. The minimum required collateral coverage ratio increases
periodically to 60% at July 1, 1996, where it remains through April
30, 1998. Improved operating results will be necessary for the
Company to remain in compliance with its debt agreement.
NOTE 4 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY AND COMMON SHARES OUTSTANDING
Stockholders' equity at January 31, 1996 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 rate of 9%; convertible into common stock at $7.50
per share after April 30, 1999; redeemable at original issue price
plus accrued dividends at the option of the Board of Directors, in
the form of cash or in exchange for senior unsecured debt with 12%
coupon. The holders of the Series A preferred stock will be
granted voting control of the Company's Board of Directors in the
event the Company misses three consecutive quarterly dividend
payments, four quarterly dividend payments within twenty-four
months or a total of eight quarterly dividend payments.
Series B preferred stock, $100 per share liquidation
preference; 500,000 shares authorized; 6,111 shares issued and
outstanding; limited voting rights; convertible into 212,693 shares
of common stock; dividends payable only if paid on the Company's
common stock; redeemable at original issue price plus accrued
dividends at the option of the Board of Directors after all Series
A preferred stock has been redeemed.
Common stock, no par value; 40,000,000 shares authorized;
11,077,074 shares issued and outstanding. Before giving effect to
any shares that might be issued pursuant to the management
incentive stock option plan or conversion of any Series A preferred
stock, the total number of common shares would increase to
11,289,767 shares if remaining Series B preferred stock outstanding
at January 31, 1996 is converted to common stock.

NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES
The income tax provision (benefit) is based on the estimated
effective annual tax rate for each fiscal year. The provision
(benefit) includes anticipated current income taxes payable or
refundable, the tax effect of anticipated differences between the
financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and
the expected utilization of net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards.
The federal and state income tax provision (benefit) consists
of the following (in thousands):

$(1,432) $(5,447) $(2,937) $(4,545)
======== ======== ======== ========
Deferred tax assets increased during the quarter ended January
31, 1996, principally as a result of additional net operating loss
carryforwards stemming from pretax losses.
Management continually assesses the likelihood of utilizing
the recorded deferred tax asset related to its NOL carryforwards,
including its operating history, the cyclical nature of the
industry in which the Company operates, current economic conditions
and the potential outcome of any IRS audits. After considering the
foregoing factors, management established a valuation allowance at
April 30, 1995 of approximately $2.9 million. No change to this
reserve was considered necessary during the quarter ended January
31, 1996.
NOTE 7 - 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.
The Company is subject to various federal, state and local
regulations regarding waste disposal and pollution control. The
Company believes it is in substantial compliance with all existing
regulations and orders. Various government agencies are
considering new regulations, including those related to log yard
management and disposal of log yard waste. Management believes
that it will be able to comply with any final regulations in this
area without a material adverse impact on its financial condition
or results of operations.
On October 8, 1995, the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) notified the Company that EPA is investigating a site
to which a subsidiary of the Company sent certain substances for
disposal in 1991. The Company, along with approximately 1,000
other firms, has been declared a Potentially Responsible Party in
this matter, giving the Company some potential financial liability
toward the cost of cleaning up the site. The Company believes that
its liability in this matter, if any, is small and would not have
a material adverse impact on its 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
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 competing 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.
The following table sets forth the percentages which certain
expenses and income (loss) items bear to net sales, and the period-
to-period percentage change in each item.

Comparison of Three Months Ended January 31, 1996 and 1995
- ----------------------------------------------------------
Net sales for the three months ended January 31, 1996
decreased $23.7 million (39%) from the three months ended January
31, 1995. This was principally caused by a 34% decrease in lumber
shipments, a 40% decrease in chip volume, and a 10% decrease in
lumber prices, partially offset by a 23% increase in chip prices.
The reduced lumber and chip deliveries reflect the Company's
reduced production resulting from a weak lumber market. Chip
prices in the Company's fourth quarter are expected to be
approximately 25% below those of the quarter ended January 31,
1996.
For the quarter ended January 31, 1996, the Company had a
gross loss of 2.1% of net sales, compared to gross profit of 2.0%
of net sales for the quarter ended January 31, 1995. Lumber prices
declined by 10% from the quarter ended January 31, 1995, while the
Company's log costs decreased by about 2% from the same period.
Unit manufacturing costs declined by 3% from the quarter ended
January 31, 1995, despite the reduced production levels. This
resulted from steps taken to increase operating time without
increasing payroll costs, and by continued focus on cost control.
Selling, general and administrative expenses in the three
months ended January 31, 1996 were essentially equal to those of
the three months ended January 31, 1995.
In the quarter ended January 31, 1996, the Company recorded a
tax benefit equal to 38% of its pretax loss. In the quarter ended
January 31, 1995, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $5.4
million due to certain elections made under Internal Revenue
Service Regulations which allow it to utilize net operating loss
carryforwards without annual limitation. See Note 6 to
Consolidated Financial Statements.
Comparison of Nine Months Ended January 31, 1996 and 1995
- ---------------------------------------------------------
Net sales for the nine months ended January 31, 1996 decreased
$76.4 million (35%) from the nine months ended January 31, 1995.
This was principally caused by a 34% decrease in lumber shipments
and chip deliveries and an 8% decrease in lumber prices, partially
offset by a 57% increase in chip prices. The reduced lumber and
chip deliveries reflect the Company's reduced production resulting
from a weak lumber market in the first three quarters of fiscal
1996.
Gross profit for the nine months ended January 31, 1996 was
2.1% of net sales, compared to 6.0% of net sales for the nine
months ended January 31, 1995. Lumber prices declined by 8% from
the nine months ended January 31, 1995, while the Company's log
costs increased by 2%. The higher chip prices were not sufficient
to offset the effect of lower lumber prices and higher log costs.
Management believes a significant portion of the increases in log
cost is attributable to the strength in chip demand. Despite the
sharply lower production levels in the first three quarters of
fiscal 1996, the Company reduced its unit manufacturing costs by 2%
from the first three quarters of fiscal 1995. This reduction
results from steps taken to increase operating time without
increasing payroll costs, and from continued focus on cost control.
Selling, general and administrative expenses in the nine
months ended January 31, 1996 decreased by $0.5 million (6%) from
the nine months ended January 31, 1995. This decrease reflects
reduced profit-sharing bonus payments stemming from lower pretax
profits, as well as the Company's continued focus on cost control.
In the nine months ended January 31, 1996, the Company
recorded a tax benefit equal to 38% of its pretax loss. In the
nine months ended January 31, 1995, the Company recorded a benefit
of $4.5 million due to certain elections made under Internal
Revenue Service Regulations which allow it to utilize net operating
loss carryforwards without annual limitation. See Note 6 to
Consolidated Financial Statements.
Liquidity and Capital Resource
- ------------------------------
During the nine months ended January 31, 1996, the Company's
cash and cash equivalents decreased by $3.4 million, to $2.6
million at January 31. Working capital declined by $10.1 million
during the first nine months of fiscal 1996, to $23.6 million at
January 31. These decreases were principally caused by operating
losses, capital spending, scheduled principal repayments, and
dividend payments on the Company's Series A preferred stock.
Capital spending in the first nine months of fiscal 1996 was
$3.6 million. Capital spending for the balance of the fiscal year
is currently forecast to be approximately $0.5 million. The
Company had no material commitments for capital spending at January
31, 1996.
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.
The Company's Credit and Security Agreement (CSA) dated as of
November 30, 1992, as amended, contains certain covenants,
including the maintenance of prescribed levels of collateral
coverage (as defined), tangible net worth, working capital and
adjusted cumulative operating income (as defined). The CSA was
amended as of January 1, 1996 with respect to certain affirmative
financial performance covenants. At January 31, 1996 the Company's
tangible net worth was $12.9 million, compared to $11.0 million
required by the covenant. At that same date, the Company's working
capital was $23.6 million, compared to $19.0 million required by
the covenant. Also, at January 31, 1996, the Company's adjusted
cumulative operating income was $19.7 million, compared to $19.0
million required. The collateral coverage ratio at January 31,
1996 was 58.3%, compared to a 54% minimum required level. The
required level of tangible net worth increases to $15.0 million
from July 1, 1996 through April 30, 1998. The required level of
working capital increases to $25.0 million on July 1, 1996. The
required level of adjusted cumulative operating income increases to
$27.5 million at July 1, 1996, $35.0 million at May 1, 1997 and
$50.0 million at May 1, 1998. The minimum required collateral
coverage ratio increases periodically to 60% at July 1, 1996, where
it remains through April 30, 1998. Improved operating results will
be necessary for the Company to remain in compliance with its CSA.
On October 8, 1995, the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) notified the Company the EPA is investigating a site
to which a subsidiary of the Company sent certain substances for
disposal in 1991. The Company, along with approximately 1,000
other firms, has been declared a Potentially Responsible Party in
this matter, giving the Company some potential financial liability
toward the cost of cleaning up the site. The Company believes that
its liability in this matter, if any, is small and should not have
a material adverse impact on its financial condition or results of
operations.
