High Purity Cellulose
Operating income for the full year ended December 31, 2019 declined $106 million from prior year. A significant portion of the decline was driven by lower prices for commodity products (primarily viscose and fluff pulp) which impacted financial results by $33 million. Commodity volumes and sales mix also negatively impacted results primarily due to weaker demand in the fourth quarter and the timing of sales orders. In addition, Cellulose Specialties volumes decreased by 6 percent due to demand weakness in acetate, automotive and construction markets driven primarily by a global economic slowdown in manufacturing, partially offset by a benefit from sales timing. Higher costs negatively impacted the full year period, particularly in the first half of 2019 due to operational issues. Additionally, Cellulose Specialties sales prices declined 2 percent, in line with expectations, contributing to the full year declines. The 2018 full year period also includes operating income of $5 million from the resins business which was sold in September 2018.
For the three-month period ended December 31, 2019, operating income declined $33 million compared to the prior year period. The decline was driven by lower prices for commodity products, which impacted results by $28 million primarily driven by a 25 percent decline in sales prices with rapidly deteriorating commodity markets in the second half of 2019 amid the U.S.-China trade dispute. Volumes negatively impacted the three-month period primarily due to timing of sales orders, while costs for the period contributed positively to results driven by lower chemical and logistics costs.
Compared to the third quarter of 2019, operating income declined $11 million as commodity sales prices declined significantly due to lower prices for commodity products as a result of the U.S.-China trade dispute. This was partially offset by higher Cellulose Specialties and commodity sales volumes due to the timing of sales orders and cost improvements.
Forest Products
The operating loss for the three-months ended December 31, 2019 improved $6 million when compared to the same prior year period due to increases in lumber prices and volumes of 1 percent and 5 percent, respectively, and the reversal of the net realizable inventory reserve as a result of higher prices and lower costs. For the full year period ended December 31, 2019, operating income decreased $56 million when compared to the prior year period primarily driven by a 21 percent decline in lumber prices in 2019, partially offset by lower costs. Additionally, the Company paid $7 million of duties in the current quarter and $23 million for the full year.
Compared to the third quarter of 2019, the operating loss improved by $1 million. The improvement was driven by a 5 percent and 16 percent increase in lumber sales prices and sales volumes, respectively. This was offset by higher duties as a result of the increased lumber sales prices and volumes. Additionally, the third quarter was favorably impacted by the reversal of the net realizable inventory reserve of $5 million.
Paperboard
Operating income improved $5 million for the three-months ended December 31, 2019 when compared to the same prior year period as a 2 percent improvement in sales volumes and lower pulp raw material prices were slightly offset by a 1 percent decline in sales prices. Operating income for the full year period ended December 31, 2019 was comparable to the prior year results as a 2 percent decline in sales prices and higher transportation and logistics costs were offset by a 4 percent improvement in sales volumes and lower pulp raw material prices.
Compared to the third quarter of 2019, operating income improved $1 million as a 10 percent decline in sales volumes was more than offset in lower pulp raw material prices and other costs.
Pulp & Newsprint
Operating income for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2019 declined $18 million and $70 million, respectively, when compared to the same prior year periods. The decline was primarily driven by a 33 percent and 25 percent decrease in high-yield pulp sales prices in the three month and full year periods, respectively, due to weaker markets, which accounted for approximately $14 million and $37 million of the reduction. In addition, lower newsprint prices in the three-month and full year periods also contributed to the decline in operating income. Newsprint sales volumes were also unfavorably impacted in the full year period by lower production due to market-related downtime and reliability issues. Lastly, results included a non-recurring $11 million non-cash pension charge in the quarter.
Compared to the third quarter of 2019, the operating loss improved by $3 million. The improvement was driven by higher high-yield pulp and newsprint sales volumes and lower costs partially offset by lower high-yield and newsprint sales prices.
Corporate
The operating loss for the three months ended December 31, 2019 increased $8 million when compared to the prior year quarter driven by a $17 million non-cash environmental reserve charge. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the operating loss was flat to the prior year as lower incentive compensation, severance costs, and an insurance recovery was offset by loan amendment costs, higher non-cash environmental costs and other non-recurring expenses associated with a review of the Company’s commodity asset portfolio.
Compared to the third quarter of 2019, the operating loss increased by $17 million. Higher non-cash environmental reserves, the absence of the favorable insurance recovery from the third quarter of 2019 as well as unfavorable foreign exchange rate changes were partially offset by loan amendment costs and non-recurring expenses associated with a review of the Company’s commodity asset portfolio.
Non-Operating Expenses
Interest expense for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2019, increased $4 million in each period driven by higher average debt levels, increased interest margin from the amendment to the credit facilities, increased amortization of deferred loan costs from the $100 million repayment of term loans, partially offset by lower LIBOR rates.
Income Taxes
The full year 2019 effective tax rate from continuing operations was a benefit of 20 percent compared to an expense of 21 percent for the same period in 2018. The effective tax rate benefit differs from the federal statutory rate of 21 percent primarily due to nondeductible interest expense in the U.S., tax credits, excess tax deductions on vested stock compensation, U.S. Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income, and different statutory tax rates of foreign operations.
Discontinued Operations
As previously discussed, the Company has presented the operating results for its Matane operations as discontinued operations for all periods presented herein. Income from discontinued operations includes an after-tax gain of $84 million from the sale of the Matane mill that was completed in the fourth quarter of 2019. Also included in the discontinued operations is allocated interest expense for $100 million of debt that was required to be repaid per the Credit Agreement amendment and professional fees to sell the operation.
Actions to Reduce Costs and Improve Free Cash Flow
Today, the Company announced additional actions to reduce costs and improve free cash flow that further position it for long-term success. Already underway, the Company is implementing these initiatives while maintaining the high quality products and culture of innovation that are consistent with Rayonier Advanced Materials’ values.
“As we continue to focus on actions within our control, we have identified additional opportunities for cost reduction and cash preservation to ensure the Company can manage through the current commodity price environment,” said Boynton. “These proactive steps are critical to ensure we remain in compliance with our bank covenants in the near-term and provide our stakeholders with the ability to benefit from commodity price recovery in the long-term. We are targeting a total company cost savings and cash preservation plan of $60 to $70 million for 2020.”
Recent Developments
Action on Tariffs on Imported Goods into China
On February 18, the Tariff Commission of the State Council in China announced a notice to eliminate the tariff on certain raw material purchases by accepting application by the relevant Chinese entities for this removal beginning on March 2, 2020. The list of raw materials eligible for such tariff elimination include dissolving wood pulp (including Cellulose Specialties and viscose) and fluff pulp. Based upon the Company’s understanding of the notice and process, it believes that tariffs on its products into China will be eliminated by late first or early second quarter of 2020. The Company had approximately $230 million of sales from the U.S. to China in 2019.
Coronavirus
In late 2019 and early 2020, a strain of coronavirus was reported in China. In January 2020, in response to human health concerns, Chinese authorities ordered some businesses and ports closed. The Company has been in regular contact with its customers. To date, the Company has not seen a slowdown in order volumes, shipments or cash collections for its Cellulose Specialties customers. In high-yield pulp, we have seen some slowdown of orders, which is being offset by sales to other geographic regions. Given the dynamic and fluid nature of this situation, the potential financial impact, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
Momentum in Lumber Prices
Lumber prices have seen recent improvements supported by strong housing starts of 1.6 million in December and January, representing the best housing start numbers in over a decade. Lumber index prices have improved by $45 per thousand board feet since the start of the year and the tone in the market is better. On February 3, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced a preliminary determination that combined anti-dumping and countervailing duties on the Company’s softwood lumber would fall to 8.2 percent from 20.2 percent beginning in August, as it relates to the Company, which deposited $23 million of duties in 2019. A final determination is expected in August.
2020 Actions
Improve Operational Costs
The Company expects to improve costs from operations by $15 million primarily through efficiencies in supply chain and execution on continuous improvement projects in its facilities.
Reduce Corporate Costs
The Company will reduce its administrative support cost structure to align with the current business environment. The net cost savings from these changes are forecasted to be approximately $10 to $15 million in 2020 from 2019 levels.
Reduce Capex
2020 capital expenditures will be reduced by $10 to $15 million in addition to the $26 million reduction in 2019 from 2018 levels.
Improve Working Capital
2020 working capital will be reduced by an estimated $25 million from 2019 levels with a focus on reducing inventory levels and improving payment terms.
Evaluate Further Opportunties For Improvement
Initiate incremental actions to review non-core assets to identify further opportunities to reduce costs and better position the Company for long-term success. Actions may include asset sales, workforce reductions, temporary production curtailments and permanent closures.
Outlook
High Purity Cellulose
For 2020, the Company expects Cellulose Specialties prices to increase approximately 2 percent on a contractual basis as a result of the Company’s decision to enhance product margins. As anticipated, Cellulose Specialties volumes are expected to decline due to a ramp down in certain contractual volumes driven by decisions not to pursue lower margin Cellulose Specialties business, a negative impact expected from sales timing and forecasted weakness in automotive end markets. Driven by the U.S.-China Trade dispute and slowing global economic growth, pricing for commodity products (primarily viscose and fluff pulp) are currently at decades lows. The Company expects these commodity prices to increase progressively throughout the year but on average be below the average pricing for 2019. Commodity sales volumes are expected to increase materially in 2020 due to improved operations, asset optimization and lower Cellulose Specialties volumes. Total sales volumes for the segment are expected to increase mid-single digits percent with commodity sales volumes anticipated to account for approximately 50 percent of the total sales volume in 2020. Overall, the Company anticipates segment EBITDA to increase modestly from last year; however, the extent of this improvement will be primarily dependent upon the level of improvement in commodity product pricing and the impact of the current health crisis in China.
Forest Products
U.S. housing starts and remodeling activity are the key drivers for lumber demand. U.S. housing starts were reported at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.6 million in December and January, the highest figure in 13 years. Residential-improvement expenditures were also revised sharply higher to end 2019; as a result, demand on North American lumber mills is rebounding. This increased demand coupled with reduced supply are leading to improved pricing. Duties on lumber sales from Canada into the U.S. will continue to impact financial results. The U.S. Department of Commerce’s preliminary determination impacting these duties is expected to significantly reduce these impacts beginning in August. Since the duties started in 2017, the Company has paid approximately $59 million of lumber duties. Based on current market conditions and prices, the Company expect improved results in 2020 from 2019 performance.
Paperboard
Paperboard prices and volumes are expected to remain relatively constant in 2020. On a full year comparable basis, margins should improve as raw material costs for pulp have declined.
Pulp & Newsprint
High-yield pulp prices appear to have reached the bottom in the fourth quarter of 2019. The Company expects markets to improve gradually from the bottom of the cyclical lows but remain below 2018 realized prices. Newsprint prices remain challenged due to demand weakness; however, sales volumes are expected to increase due to improved productivity. Overall, the segment results are expected to be flat to slightly up in 2020, subject to the assumptions above. In addition, a significant portion of high-yield pulp sales are to China and it is unclear how the current health crisis will impact the business.
Conclusion
“We faced many challenges in 2019 which had a material impact on our business and financial results. By continuing our initiatives to lower costs and improve cash flows and liquidity, combined with the completion of our loan amendment and the sale of Matane, we are taking aggressive action to manage the current challenging market conditions,” added Boynton. “We are focused on increasing price, mix and margins in our High Purity Cellulose business, while reducing costs and preserving cash to improve our balance sheet. We face many uncertainties with a volatile global manufacturing economy but our employees are resilient and we are prepared to face each of these challenges to build a better future for our Company and its stockholders.”

Business and Operating Risks
Our businesses we operate are highly competitive and many of them are cyclical, especially in commodity markets, which may result in fluctuations in pricing and volume that can adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations; Our ten largest customers represent approximately 33 percent of our 2019 revenue, and the loss of all or a substantial portion of our revenue from these large customers could have a material adverse effect on us; A material disruption at one of our major manufacturing facilities could prevent us from meeting customer demand, reduce our sales and profitability, increase our cost of production and capital needs, or otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operation; Changes in raw material and energy availability and prices could affect our results of operations and financial condition; The availability of, and prices for, wood fiber may significantly impact our business, results of operations and financial condition; We are subject to risks associated with manufacturing and selling products and otherwise doing business outside of the United States; Our operations require substantial capital for ongoing maintenance, repair and replacement of existing facilities and equipment; Currency fluctuations may have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations; Restrictions on trade through tariffs, countervailing and anti-dumping duties, quotas and other trade barriers, in the United States and internationally, especially with respect to China, Canada and as a result of “Brexit”, could adversely affect our ability to access certain markets and otherwise impact our results of operations; We depend on third parties for transportation services and increases in costs and the availability of transportation could adversely affect our business; Our business is subject to extensive environmental laws, regulations and permits that may restrict or adversely affect our ability to conduct our business; The impacts of climate-related initiatives remain uncertain at this time; Our failure to maintain satisfactory labor relations could have a material adverse effect on our business; We are dependent upon attracting and retaining key personnel, the loss of whom could adversely affect our business; Failure to develop new products or discover new applications for our existing products, or our inability to protect the intellectual property underlying such new products or applications, could have a negative impact on our business; Risk of loss of the Company’s intellectual property and sensitive business information, or disruption of its manufacturing operations, in each case due to cyberattacks or cyber security breaches, could adversely impact the Company; and we may need to make significant additional cash contributions to our retirement benefit plans if investment returns on pension assets are lower than expected or interest rates decline, and/or due to changes to regulatory, accounting and actuarial requirements;
Debt-Related Risks
While the Company has entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to its Senior Secured Credit Facilities (as amended by the Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”) to address the risk of potential non-compliance with certain covenants at the end of the third quarter of 2019, there can be no assurances that the Company will continue in full compliance with the amended covenants provided in the Credit Amendment through December 31, 2021, which is the date covenant relief granted under the Amendment expires; We have significant debt obligations that could adversely affect our business and our ability to meet our obligations; The phase-out of LIBOR as an interest rate benchmark could result in an increase to our borrowing costs; Challenges in the commercial and credit environments may materially adversely affect our future access to capital; and we may need additional financing in the future to meet our capital needs or to make acquisitions, and such financing may not be available on favorable terms, if at all, and may be dilutive to existing stockholders.

Rayonier Advanced Materials assumes no obligation to update these statements except as is required by law.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release and the accompanying schedules contain certain non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted free cash flows, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income and adjusted net debt. These non-GAAP measures are reconciled to each of their respective most directly comparable GAAP financial measures on Schedules D - H of this earnings release. We believe these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to our board of directors, management and investors regarding certain trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations. Our management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare our performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, purposes of determining management incentive compensation and budgeting, forecasting and planning purposes.
We do not consider these non-GAAP measures an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitations of these non-GAAP financial measures are that they may exclude significant expenses and income items that are required by GAAP to be recognized in our consolidated financial statements. In addition, they reflect the exercise of management’s judgment about which expenses and income items are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, management provides reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures we use to their most directly comparable GAAP measures. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be relied upon, in whole or part, in evaluating the financial condition, results of operations or future prospects of the Company.
