"During the second quarter, we began to benefit from improving
pricing trends in both packaging and paper markets and experienced
growth in our packaging and packaging demand-driven paper
businesses," said Alexander Toeldte, President and Chief Executive
Officer of Boise Inc. "Shipments in our corrugated packaging
business were up 17% over the prior year, and sales volumes
of our premium office, label and release, and flexible packaging
products grew 14% over the prior year period. During the
second quarter, we completed planned annual outages at our
International Falls and Wallula mills. Looking ahead to the
third quarter, we have no planned annual maintenance outages and
expect to continue to benefit from the recently implemented price
increases."
Sales
Total sales for second quarter 2010 were $521.6 million, up $42.2
million, or 9%, from $479.4
million for second quarter 2009 and up $27.5 million from first quarter 2010 sales of
$494.1 million.
Paper segment sales increased $7.8
million during second quarter 2010 compared with second
quarter 2009 due primarily to increased sales prices.
Packaging segment sales increased $35.9 million during second quarter 2010 compared
with second quarter 2009 driven by higher sales volumes for
corrugated products and newsprint and higher sales prices for
linerboard and newsprint. These increases were offset
partially by lower sales prices of corrugated products compared
with the prior year.
Prices and Volumes
Pricing for uncoated freesheet improved in second quarter 2010
compared with second quarter 2009 and first quarter 2010.
Average net selling prices for uncoated freesheet papers
increased $12 per ton, or 1%, to
$970 per ton during second quarter
2010 compared with second quarter 2009 and increased $29 per ton from first quarter 2010. In
first quarter 2010, we implemented a $40-per-ton price increase across most of our
uncoated freesheet grades, including cut-size office papers,
offset, and midweight opaque grades. In April 2010, we announced a $60-per-ton price increase effective in May
across virtually all of our uncoated office papers and printing and
converting grades, from which we expect to further benefit
beginning in third quarter 2010. Overall, uncoated freesheet
sales volumes were 312,000 tons during second quarter 2010, a
decrease of 1% versus the prior year period, and flat from first
quarter 2010. Combined sales volumes of premium office, label
and release, and flexible packaging papers, which represented 32%
of our total second quarter 2010 uncoated freesheet sales volumes,
increased by 14% compared with second quarter 2009.
Corrugated container and sheet sales volumes improved 17% during
second quarter 2010 compared with second quarter 2009 and increased
4% from first quarter 2010. This increase was due primarily
to increased sales of sheets from our sheet feeder plant in
Texas as a result of improving
industrial markets in the area. Corrugated container and
sheet prices increased 6% sequentially from first quarter 2010
driven by higher selling prices for containerboard.
Corrugated container and sheet prices decreased 5% in second
quarter 2010 from second quarter 2009 driven primarily by an
increased sales mix of corrugated sheets relative to corrugated
containers.
Linerboard net selling prices to third parties increased
$38 per ton, or 13%, to $340 per ton in second quarter 2010 compared with
$302 per ton in second quarter 2009
and improved $44 per ton sequentially
from first quarter 2010. In first quarter 2010, we
implemented a $50-per-ton and
$70-per-ton price increase on
domestic linerboard sales in the eastern and western U.S.,
respectively. During second quarter, we implemented an
additional $60-per-ton increase on
domestic linerboard sales. In July, we announced an
additional $60-per-ton increase on
domestic linerboard sales effective on August orders.
Linerboard sales volumes to third parties were 54,000 tons
during second quarter 2010, flat from second quarter 2009.
Third-party sales volumes decreased 13% sequentially from
first quarter 2010 as improved sales volumes in our corrugated
product and sheet operations during second quarter 2010 resulted in
less linerboard available for sales to third parties.
Input Costs
Total fiber, energy, and chemical costs for second quarter 2010
were $215.1 million, an increase of
$31.4 million, or 17%, compared with
costs of $183.7 million for second
quarter 2009. The increase was driven primarily by higher
fiber costs and higher consumption of all inputs due to increased
production volumes.

Total fiber costs during second quarter 2010 were $117.1 million, an increase of $24.9 million, or 27%, from $92.2 million incurred in second quarter 2009.
This was due to higher purchased pulp prices and increased
fiber consumption. Fiber costs in second quarter 2010
increased $1.6 million, or 1%,
compared with $115.5 million in first
quarter 2010.
Energy costs in second quarter 2010 were $48.1 million, an increase of $7.6 million, or 19%, compared with $40.5 million in second quarter 2009. This
was driven by increased consumption of energy due to higher
production volumes, offset partially in the Paper segment by lower
electrical prices and more favorable energy mix. Energy costs
in second quarter 2010 decreased $15.3
million, or 24%, from $63.4
million in first quarter 2010 due to seasonal decreases in
consumption and lower natural gas prices.
Chemical costs in second quarter 2010 were $49.9 million, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 2%, compared with $51.0 million in second quarter 2009 as lower
prices were offset partially by higher consumption of commodity
chemicals. Chemical costs were up $0.8
million, or 2%, compared with $49.1
million in first quarter 2010 due to higher prices.

Summary Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and
Segment Information
The Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss), Consolidated
Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, and Segment
Information do not include all Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's
2009 Annual Report on Form 10K and the Company's Quarterly Report
on Form 10Q for the period ended June 30,
2010, as well as other reports the Company files with the
SEC. Net income (loss) for all periods presented involved estimates
and accruals.
Boise Inc. operates its business in three reportable segments:
Paper, Packaging, and Corporate and Other (support services). Boise
Inc. manufactures and sells a range of papers, including
communication-based papers, packaging-demand-driven papers, and
market pulp. Boise Inc. also manufactures and sells corrugated
containers and sheets as well as linerboard and newsprint.
This release contains several financial measures that are not
measures under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP). These measures include EBITDA, EBITDA excluding special
items, net income excluding special items, net total debt, and
other similar measures. Management uses these measures to evaluate
ongoing operations and believes they are useful to investors
because they enable them to perform meaningful comparisons of past
and present operating results. The following charts reconcile these
non-GAAP measures with the most directly comparable GAAP
measures.
EBITDA represents income (loss) before interest (change in fair
value of interest rate derivatives, interest expense, and interest
income), income taxes, and depreciation, amortization, and
depletion. The following table reconciles net income (loss) to
EBITDA for the three months ended June 30,
2010 and 2009, and the three months ended March 31, 2010 (unaudited, dollars in
thousands):
