Business Description

Deltic Timber Corporation was incorporated in Delaware. The Company is a natural resources company, which is engaged in the growing and harvesting of timber and the manufacture and marketing of lumber. The Company owns approximately 445,100 acres of timberland, mainly in Arkansas and north Louisiana, stocked mainly with Southern Pine, known in the industry as a type of "softwood." The Company's sawmill operations are located at Ola in central Arkansas and at Waldo in south Arkansas. In addition to its timber and lumber operations, the Company is engaged in real estate development in central Arkansas. The Company is organized into four segments: Woodlands, which manages all aspects of the Company's timberlands including harvesting and sale of timber, timberland sales and acquisitions, oil and gas mineral revenue, and hunting land leases; Mills, which consists of Deltic's two sawmills that manufacture a number of softwood lumber products; Real Estate, which includes the Company's three active real estate developments and a related country club operation; and Corporate, which consists of executive management, accounting, information systems, human resources, purchasing, treasury, income tax, and legal staff functions that provide support services to the operating business units. The Company's main products are timber, timberland, softwood lumber products, residual wood products, hunting land leases, oil and gas lease rentals and royalties, and real estate. The Company competes in the domestic timber market with numerous private industrial and non-industrial land and timber owners. The Company is subject to extensive and changing federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations relating to the protection of human health and the environment, including laws relating to air and water quality, greenhouse gas emissions, the use of herbicides on timberlands, regulation of "wetlands", and the protection of endangered species.
