Louisiana-Pacific Corporation (LP) (NYSE: LPX), a leading manufacturer of high-performance building products, today reported its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Key Highlights for First Quarter 2024, Compared to First Quarter 2023

  • Siding net sales increased by 9% to $361 million
  • Oriented Strand Board (OSB) net sales increased by 65% to $313 million
  • Consolidated net sales increased by 24% to $724 million
  • Net income was $108 million, an increase of $85 million
  • Net income per diluted share was $1.48 per share, an increase of $1.19 per share

  • Adjusted Diluted EPS (1) was $1.53 per diluted share, an increase of $1.19 per diluted share
  • Cash provided by operating activities was $105 million, an increase of $223 million

(1)

This is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Use of Non-GAAP Information,” “Reconciliation of Net Income to Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA, Non-GAAP Adjusted Income, and Non-GAAP Adjusted Diluted EPS" below.

Capital Allocation Update

  • Invested $41 million in capital expenditures during the first quarter
  • Paid $19 million in cash dividends during the first quarter
  • For the year-to-date period ending May 8, 2024, LP paid $50 million to repurchase 0.6 million common shares ($13 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024), leaving $150 million remaining under the under the pre-existing share repurchase program authorized in May 2022
  • Additional authorization of $250 million to repurchase LP common stock, bringing total authorized for stock repurchases to $400 million as of May 8, 2024
  • Announced a quarterly cash dividend of $0.26 per share
  • As of March 31, 2024, total liquidity of approximately $800 million

“The first quarter saw robust demand for Siding and OSB, with increased volume, including record ExpertFinish and BuilderSeries volume, higher commodity prices, and improved operating efficiency driving margin expansion,” said LP Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer Brad Southern. "While macro uncertainties remain, strong demand for SmartSide and Structural Solutions has continued in the second quarter. As such, we are increasing our second quarter and full-year outlook.”

Outlook

The Company is providing financial guidance for the second quarter of 2024 and full year 2024 as set forth in the table below. Guidance is based on current plans and expectations and is subject to a number of known and unknown uncertainties and risks, including those set forth below under “Forward-Looking Statements.”

Second Quarter 2024

Full Year 2024

Siding Net sales year-over-year growth

20% to 25%

11% to 13%

Siding Adjusted EBITDA (2)

$95 million to $105 million

$340 million to $360 million

OSB Adjusted EBITDA (2)(3)

$125 million to $135 million

$315 million to $325 million

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA (2)(3)(4)

$220 million to $240 million

$655 million to $685 million

Capital Expenditures (5)

$200 million to $220 million

(2)

This is a non-GAAP financial measure. Reconciliation of Siding Adjusted EBITDA, OSB Adjusted EBITDA, and consolidated Adjusted EBITDA guidance to the closest corresponding GAAP measure on a forward-looking basis is not available without unreasonable efforts. Our inability to reconcile these measures results from the inherent difficulty in forecasting generally and quantifying certain projected amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. In particular, sufficient information is not available to calculate certain adjustments required for such reconciliation, such as business exit charges, product-line discontinuance charges, other operating credits and charges, net, loss on early debt extinguishment, investment income, and other non-operating items, that would be required to be included in the comparable forecasted U.S. GAAP measures. The Company expects that these adjustments may potentially have a significant impact on future GAAP financial results.

(3)

For purposes of calculating the full year 2024 OSB Adjusted EBITDA and full year 2024 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA amounts in the table above, the third and fourth quarters of 2024 Adjusted EBITDA is assumed to be at our cycle average run rate of $200 million per year.

(4)

For purposes of calculating the second quarter of 2024 and full year 2024 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, LP South America Adjusted EBITDA fully offsets Corporate and Other Adjusted EBITDA.

(5)

Capital expenditures related to strategic growth and sustaining maintenance projects are expected to be between $50 million to $60 million and $150 million to $160 million, respectively.

First Quarter 2024 Highlights

Net sales for the first quarter of 2024 increased year-over-year by $141 million (or 24%). Siding revenue increased $30 million (or 9%), due to 5% higher prices and 4% higher volumes. OSB revenue increased $124 million (or 65%), driven by 36% higher prices and 21% higher volumes. This was partially offset by decreases in the LP South America (LPSA) segment and Other revenue of $8 million and $5 million, respectively.

Net income increased year-over-year by $85 million to $108 million ($1.48 per diluted share) primarily due to an increase in Adjusted EBITDA of $116 million, partially offset by a $40 million increase in the provision for income taxes. The year-over-year increase in Adjusted EBITDA includes $62 million due to higher OSB selling prices, a $29 million increase from higher OSB sales volumes, and a $19 million impact from higher Siding net sales.

Siding

The Siding segment serves diverse end markets with a broad product offering including LP ® SmartSide ® Trim & Siding, LP ® SmartSide ® ExpertFinish ® Trim & Siding, LP BuilderSeries ® Lap Siding, and LP ® Outdoor Building Solutions TM (collectively referred to as Siding Solutions).

For additional information about factors that could cause actual results, events, and circumstances to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements, please refer to LP’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). We urge you to consider all of the risks, uncertainties, and factors identified above or discussed in such reports carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements in this news release. We cannot assure you that the results reflected in or implied by any forward-looking statement will be realized or even if substantially realized, that those results will have the forecasted or expected consequences and effects for or on our operations or financial performance. The forward-looking statements made today are as of the date of this news release. Except as required by law, LP undertakes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements to reflect new information, subsequent events, or circumstances.

Use of Non-GAAP Information

In evaluating our business, we utilize non-GAAP financial measures that fall within the meaning of SEC Regulation G and Regulation S-K Item 10(e), which we believe provide users of the financial information with additional meaningful comparison to prior reported results. Non-GAAP financial measures do not have standardized definitions and are not defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In this press release, we disclose income attributed to LP before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and excluding stock-based compensation expense, loss on impairment attributed to LP, business exit charges, product-line discontinuance charges, other operating credits and charges, net, loss on early debt extinguishment, investment income, pension settlement charges, and other non-operating items, as Adjusted EBITDA (Adjusted EBITDA), which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We have included Adjusted EBITDA in this report because we view it as an important supplemental measure of our performance and believe that it is frequently used by interested persons in the evaluation of companies that have different financing and capital structures and/or tax rates. We also disclose income attributed to LP, excluding loss on impairment attributed to LP, business exit charges, product-line discontinuance charges, interest expense outside of normal operations, other operating credits and charges, net, loss on early debt extinguishment, gain (loss) on acquisition, and pension settlement charges, and adjusting for a normalized tax rate, as Adjusted Income (Adjusted Income). We also disclose Adjusted Diluted EPS, which is calculated as Adjusted Income divided by diluted shares outstanding. We believe that Adjusted Diluted EPS and Adjusted Income are useful measures for evaluating our ability to generate earnings and that providing these measures should allow interested persons to more readily compare the earnings for past and future periods. Reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS to their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, Net income, are presented below.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS are not substitutes for the U.S. GAAP measures of net income, income attributed to LP, and income attributed to LP per diluted share or for any other U.S. GAAP measures of operating performance. It should be noted that other companies may present similarly titled measures differently, and therefore, as presented by us, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS have material limitations as performance measures because they exclude items that are actually incurred or experienced in connection with the operation of our business.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

The following tables present summary data relating to: (i) housing starts within the United States, (ii) our sales volumes, and (iii) our OEE performance. We consider the following items to be key performance indicators for our business because LP’s management uses these metrics to evaluate our business and trends in our industry, measure our performance, and make strategic decisions. We believe that the key performance indicators presented may provide additional perspective and insights when analyzing our core operating performance. These key performance indicators should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for, or as an alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the financial measures that were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These measures may not be comparable to similarly titled performance indicators used by other companies.

We monitor housing starts, which is a leading external indicator of residential construction in the United States that correlates with the demand for many of our products. We believe that housing starts is a useful measure for evaluating our results and that providing this measure should allow interested persons to more readily compare our sales volume for past and future periods to an external indicator of product demand. Other companies may present housing start data differently, and therefore, as presented by us, our housing start data may not be comparable to similarly titled performance indicators reported by other companies.

The following table sets forth housing starts for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):

Actual U.S. housing starts data, in thousands, reported by the U.S. Census Bureau as published through April 16, 2024.

We monitor sales volumes for our products in our Siding, OSB, and LPSA segments, which we define as the number of units of our products sold within the applicable period. Evaluating sales volume by product type helps us identify and address changes in product demand, broad market factors that may affect our performance, and opportunities for future growth. It should be noted that other companies may present sales volume data differently, and therefore, as presented by us, sales volume data may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We believe that sales volumes can be a useful measure for evaluating and understanding our business.

The following table sets forth sales volumes for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

We measure OEE of each of our mills to track improvements in the utilization and productivity of our manufacturing assets. OEE is a composite metric that considers asset uptime (adjusted for capital project downtime and similar events), production rates, and finished product quality. We believe that when used in conjunction with other metrics, OEE can be a useful measure for evaluating our ability to generate profits, and that providing this measure should allow interested persons to monitor operational improvements. We use a best-in-class target across all LP sites that allows us to optimize capital investments, focus maintenance and reliability improvements, and improve overall equipment efficiency. It should be noted that other companies may present OEE data differently, and therefore, as presented by us, OEE data may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

OEE for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 for each of our segments is listed below:
