NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
FOR THE QUARTERS AND YEAR-TO-DATE PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 2014 AND 2013
NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION
We are a corporation that has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (REIT). We expect to derive most of our REIT income from investments in timberlands, including the sale of standing timber through pay-as-cut sales contracts. REIT income can be distributed to shareholders without first paying corporate level tax, substantially eliminating the double taxation on income. A significant portion of our timberland segment earnings receives this favorable tax treatment. We are, however, subject to corporate taxes on built-in-gains (the excess of fair market value over tax basis at January 1, 2010) on sales of real property (other than standing timber) held by the REIT during the first 10 years following the REIT conversion. We continue to be required to pay federal corporate income taxes on earnings of our Taxable REIT Subsidiary (TRS), which principally includes our manufacturing businesses and the portion of our Timberlands segment income included in the TRS.
Our consolidated financial statements provide an overall view of our results and financial condition. They include our accounts and the accounts of entities we control, including:
| |
• | majority-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries and |
| |
• | variable interest entities in which we are the primary beneficiary. |
They do not include our intercompany transactions and accounts, which are eliminated, and noncontrolling interests are presented as a separate component of equity.
We account for investments in and advances to unconsolidated equity affiliates using the equity method, with taxes provided on undistributed earnings. This means that we record earnings and accrue taxes in the period earnings are recognized by our unconsolidated equity affiliates.
Throughout these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, unless specified otherwise, references to “Weyerhaeuser,” “we” and “our” refer to the consolidated company.
The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Except as otherwise disclosed in these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission pertaining to interim financial statements; certain disclosures normally provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been omitted. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. Results of operations for interim periods should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
We have reclassified certain balances and results from the prior year to be consistent with our 2014 reporting. This makes year-to-year comparisons easier. Our reclassifications had no effect on net earnings or Weyerhaeuser shareholders’ interest. Our reclassifications record our variable interest entities assets and liabilities into their respective line items on our Consolidated Balance Sheet and to present the results of operations discontinued in 2014 separately on our Consolidated Statement of Operations, Consolidated Balance Sheet and in the related footnotes. Note 2: Discontinued Operations provides information about our discontinued operations.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2013-11, which provides guidance on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits, reflecting the manner in which an entity would settle at the reporting date any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position when net operating loss carryforwards, similar tax losses or tax credit carryforwards exist. Our prospective adoption of this guidance in first quarter 2014 did not have a material effect on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
In April 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-08, an amendment to the current model of the classification and presentation of discontinued operations and asset disposals that changes the definition of a discontinued operation to include only disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a material effect on an entity's financial results. The new standard is effective for all disposals or classifications as assets held for sale for fiscal periods starting after December 15, 2014 and early adoption is permitted. We expect to adopt ASU 2014-08 on January 1, 2015 and have determined that its adoption will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures at that time.
In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09, a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard is effective for us on January 1, 2017 and early adoption is not permitted. We may use either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We are evaluating the impact that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. We have not yet selected a transition method nor determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting.
NOTE 2: DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On July 7, 2014, we completed the following set of transactions:
| |
• | a series of transfers and other transactions resulting in our homebuilding and real estate development business becoming wholly-owned by TRI Pointe Homes, Inc. (TRI Pointe); and |
| |
• | the distribution of shares of Weyerhaeuser Real Estate Company (WRECO) to our shareholders in exchange for 59 million shares of our common stock. |
Collectively, these transactions are referred to as the “Real Estate Divestiture”.
We also received $712 million of cash proceeds in connection with the Real Estate Divestiture and expect to record a net gain of approximately $1 billion in third quarter 2014.
Prior to the distribution of WRECO shares to our shareholders, WRECO was a wholly owned subsidiary. Concurrent with the distribution to shareholders, WRECO ceased being a subsidiary. Discontinued operations relates to WRECO and was previously reported under the Real Estate segment and Unallocated Items.
The following table summarizes the components of net sales and net earnings from discontinued operations.

During June 2014, our wholly owned subsidiary, WRECO, issued $450 million of unsecured and unsubordinated senior obligations bearing an interest rate of 4.375 percent due June 15, 2019 and $450 million of unsecured and unsubordinated senior obligations bearing an interest rate of 5.875 percent due June 15, 2024, which are included in "Noncurrent liabilities of discontinued operations" in our Consolidated Balance Sheet and were transferred along with other WRECO assets and liabilities as part of the Real Estate Divestiture. The net proceeds after deducting the discount were $887 million and are included in "Current assets of discontinued operations" in our Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The following table shows carrying values for assets and liabilities classified as discontinued operations as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.

NOTE 3: LONGVIEW TIMBER PURCHASE
On July 23, 2013, we purchased 100 percent of the equity interests in Longview Timber LLC (Longview Timber) for $1.58 billion cash and assumed debt of $1.07 billion, for an aggregate purchase price of $2.65 billion. Longview Timber was a privately-held Delaware limited liability company engaged in the ownership and management of approximately 645,000 acres of timberlands in Oregon and Washington. We believe Longview Timber has productive lands with favorable age class distribution that will provide us with optionality for harvest. Earnings, assets and liabilities from this business are reported as part of the Timberlands segment beginning in third quarter 2013.
Summarized unaudited pro forma information that presents combined amounts as if this acquisition occurred at the beginning of 2013, is as follows:

NOTE 5: NET EARNINGS PER SHARE
Our basic earnings per share attributable to Weyerhaeuser shareholders were:
| |
• | $0.48 during second quarter and $0.79 during year-to-date 2014; and |
| |
• | $0.35 during second quarter and $0.62 during year-to-date 2013. |
Our diluted earnings per share attributable to Weyerhaeuser shareholders were:
| |
• | $0.47 during second quarter and $0.79 during year-to-date 2014; and |
| |
• | $0.35 during second quarter and $0.61 during year-to-date 2013. |
Basic earnings per share is net earnings available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of our outstanding common shares, including stock equivalent units where there is no circumstance under which those shares would not be issued.
Diluted earnings per share is net earnings available to common shareholders divided by the sum of the:
| |
• | weighted average number of our outstanding common shares and |
| |
• | the effect of our outstanding dilutive potential common shares. |
Dilutive potential common shares can include:
| |
• | outstanding stock options, |
| |
• | performance share units and |
We use the treasury stock method to calculate the effect of our outstanding stock options, restricted stock units and performance share units. Share-based payment awards that are contingently issuable upon the achievement of specified performance or market conditions are included in our diluted earnings per share calculation in the period in which the conditions are satisfied.
We use the if-converted method to calculate the effect of our outstanding preference shares. In applying the if-converted method, conversion is not assumed for purposes of computing diluted earnings per share if the effect would be antidilutive. Preference shares are antidilutive whenever the amount of the dividend declared in or accumulated for the current period per common share obtainable on conversion exceeds diluted earnings per share exclusive of the preference shares.
Preference shares are evaluated for participation on a quarterly basis to determine whether two-class presentation is required. Preference shares are considered to be participating as of the financial reporting period end to the extent they would participate in dividends paid to common shareholders. Preference shares are not considered participating for the quarter and year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2014. Under the provisions of the two-class method, basic and diluted earnings per share would be presented for both preference and common shareholders.
SHARES EXCLUDED FROM DILUTIVE EFFECT
The following shares were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were either antidilutive or the required performance or market conditions were not met. Some or all of these shares may be dilutive potential common shares in future periods.
We issued 13.8 million 6.375 percent Mandatory Convertible Preference Shares, Series A on June 24, 2013. We do not include these shares in our calculation of diluted earnings per share because they are antidilutive.

LIFO – the last-in, first-out method – applies to major inventory products held at our U.S. domestic locations. We began to use the LIFO method for domestic products in the 1940s as required to conform with the tax method elected. Subsequent acquisitions of entities added new products under the FIFO - the first-in, first-out method – or moving average cost methods that have continued under those methods. The FIFO or moving average cost methods applies to the balance of our domestic raw material and product inventories as well as for all material and supply inventories and all foreign inventories. If we used FIFO for all inventories, our stated inventories would have been $119 million and $112 million higher as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

During fourth quarter 2013, we decided to eliminate post-Medicare health funding for certain salaried retirees after 2014. As a result, we will ratably amortize a total pretax gain of $177 million throughout 2014. We recognized a pretax gain of $45 million in second quarter 2014 and $90 million in first half 2014 from this plan amendment. This gain is included in "Other operating income, net" in our Consolidated Statement of Operations and reflected in the amortization of prior service credit in the table above.
VALUATION OF PENSION PLAN ASSETS AND OBLIGATION
We estimate the fair value of pension plan assets based upon the information available during the year-end reporting process. In some cases, primarily private equity funds, the information available consists of net asset values as of an interim date, cash flows between the interim date and the end of the year and market events. We revised the year-end estimated fair value of pension plan assets to incorporate year-end net asset values reflected in audited financial statements received after we have filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K. During second quarter 2014, we recorded an increase in the fair value of the pension assets of $53 million. We also revised our census data that is used to estimate our projected benefit obligation. During second quarter 2014, we recorded an increase to the projected benefit obligation of $19 million. The net effect was a $34 million increase in the funded status.
EXPECTED CONTRIBUTIONS AND BENEFIT PAYMENTS
As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, in 2014 we expect to:
| |
• | make approximately $53 million of required contributions to our Canadian registered pension plan; |
| |
• | make $3 million of required contributions or benefit payments to our Canadian nonregistered pension plans; |
| |
• | make benefit payments of $20 million for our U.S. nonqualified pension plans; and |
| |
• | make benefit payments of $35 million for our U.S. and Canadian other postretirement plans. |
We do not anticipate making a contribution to our U.S. qualified pension plan for 2014.
NOTE 8: ACCRUED LIABILITIES
Accrued liabilities were comprised of the following:

NOTE 9: FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The estimated fair values and carrying values of our long-term debt consisted of the following:
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| JUNE 30, 2014 | | DECEMBER 31, 2013 |
DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN MILLIONS | CARRYING VALUE | | FAIR VALUE (LEVEL 2) | | CARRYING VALUE | | FAIR VALUE (LEVEL 2) |
Long-term debt (including current maturities) | $ | 4,891 |
| | $ | 6,013 |
| | $ | 4,891 |
| | $ | 5,683 |
|
To estimate the fair value of long-term debt, we used the following valuation approaches:
| |
• | market approach – based on quoted market prices we received for the same types and issues of our debt; or |
| |
• | income approach – based on the discounted value of the future cash flows using market yields for the same type and comparable issues of debt. |
The inputs to these valuations are based on market data obtained from independent sources or information derived principally from observable market data.
The difference between the fair value and the carrying value represents the theoretical net premium or discount we would pay or receive to retire all debt at the measurement date.
FAIR VALUE OF OTHER FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
We believe that our other financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, receivables, and payables, have net carrying values that approximate their fair values with only insignificant differences. This is primarily due to:
| |
• | the short-term nature of these instruments, |
| |
• | carrying short-term investments at expected net realizable value and |
| |
• | the allowance for doubtful accounts. |
NOTE 10: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS, COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
This note provides details about our:
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, however, we are not currently a party to any legal proceeding that management believes could have a material adverse effect on our long-term financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
Our environmental matters include:
| |
• | asset retirement obligations. |
Site Remediation
Under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act – commonly known as the Superfund – and similar state laws, we:
| |
• | are a party to various proceedings related to the cleanup of hazardous waste sites and |
| |
• | have been notified that we may be a potentially responsible party related to the cleanup of other hazardous waste sites for which proceedings have not yet been initiated. |
As of June 30, 2014, our total accrual for future estimated remediation costs on the active Superfund sites and other sites for which we are responsible was approximately $31 million. These reserves are recorded in "Accrued liabilities" and "Other liabilities" in our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The accrual has not changed materially since the end of 2013.
Asset Retirement Obligations
We have obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets consisting primarily of reforestation obligations related to forest management licenses in Canada and obligations to close and cap landfills. As of June 30, 2014, our total accruals for these obligations was $45 million. These obligations are recorded in "Accrued liabilities" and "Other liabilities" in our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The accruals have not changed materially since the end of 2013. Some of our sites have asbestos containing materials. We have met our current legal obligation to identify and manage these materials. In situations where we cannot reasonably determine when asbestos containing materials might be removed from the sites, we have not recorded an accrual because the fair value of the obligation cannot be reasonably estimated.

Gain on disposition of non-strategic assets in 2014 included a $22 million pretax gain recognized in first quarter 2014 on the sale of a landfill in Washington State.
Foreign exchange losses result from changes in exchange rates on transactions, primarily related to our Canadian operations.
Land management income includes income from recreational activities, land permits, grazing rights, firewood sales and other miscellaneous income related to land management activities.
NOTE 15: INCOME TAXES
As a REIT, we generally are not subject to corporate level tax on income of the REIT that is distributed to shareholders. We will, however, be subject to corporate taxes on built-in-gains (the excess of fair market value over tax basis at January 1, 2010) on sales of real property (other than standing timber) held by the REIT during the first 10 years following the REIT conversion. We also will continue to be required to pay federal corporate income taxes on earnings of our TRS, which principally includes our manufacturing businesses and the portion of our Timberlands segment income included in the TRS.
The 2014 provision for income taxes is based on the current estimate of the annual effective tax rate. Our 2014 estimated annual effective tax rate for our TRS is approximately 35 percent.
There were no significant discrete items excluded from the calculation of our effective income tax rate for 2014 or 2013.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
In reviewing our results of operations, it is important to understand these terms:
| |
• | Sales realizations refer to net selling prices – this includes selling price plus freight, minus normal sales deductions. |
| |
• | Net contribution to earnings can be positive or negative and refers to earnings (loss) attributable to Weyerhaeuser shareholders before interest expense and income taxes. |
In reviewing our results of operations, it is important to understand net sales and revenues and operating income included in Consolidated Results and individual segment discussions below exclude the results of discontinued operations. Refer to Note 2: Discontinued Operations. In the following discussion, unless otherwise noted, references to increases or decreases in income and expense items, sales realizations, shipment volumes, and net contributions to earnings are based on the quarter and year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2014, compared to the quarter and year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2013.

Comparing Second Quarter 2014 with Second Quarter 2013
Net sales
Net sales increased $90 million – 5 percent – primarily due to the following:
| |
• | Timberlands segment sales increased $64 million, primarily due to higher export and domestic log prices and increased sales volume in the West and from the purchase of Longview Timber; |
| |
• | a $14 million increase in our Cellulose Fibers segment sales, primarily due to higher sales realizations for pulp; and |
| |
• | a $12 million increase in our Wood Products segment sales, primarily due to higher sales realizations and shipment volumes for engineered products, higher shipment volumes for structural lumber and more complementary products purchased for resale mostly offset by lower sales realizations for oriented strand board (OSB) and structural lumber. |
Net earnings attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders
Our net earnings attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders increased $84 million – 43 percent – primarily due to the following:
| |
• | a $77 million increase in gross margin in our Timberlands and Cellulose Fibers segments, primarily due to higher sales realizations and sales volumes of pulp and liquid packaging board and the purchase of Longview Timber; |
| |
• | a $55 million increase in other operating income, primarily due to a $45 million pretax gain recognized in 2014 related to a previously announced postretirement plan amendment; and |
| |
• | a $12 million decrease in our selling, general and administrative expenses. |
These increases in our earnings were partially offset by:
| |
• | a $40 million decrease in gross margin in our Wood Products segment, primarily due to lower sales realizations in OSB and lumber; and |
| |
• | a $23 million increase in tax expense primarily due to higher earnings in our Taxable REIT Subsidiary (TRS). |
Comparing Year-to-Date 2014 with Year-to-Date 2013
Net sales
Net sales increased $71 million – 2 percent – primarily due to a $148 million increase in our Timberlands segment sales, primarily due to higher export and domestic log prices and increased sales volume in the West and from the purchase of Longview Timber.
This increase was partially offset by a $78 million decrease in our Wood Products segment sales, primarily due to lower sales realizations for OSB and structural lumber.
Net earnings attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders
Our net earnings attributable to Weyerhaeuser common shareholders increased $123 million – 36 percent – primarily due to the following:
| |
• | a $160 million increase in gross margin in our Timberlands and Cellulose Fibers segments. Our Timberlands and Cellulose Fibers segment increases were primarily due to higher sales realizations and the purchase of Longview Timber. |
| |
• | a $112 million increase in other operating income, primarily due to a $90 million pretax gain recognized in 2014 related to a previously announced postretirement plan amendment. |
| |
• | a $34 million decrease in our selling, general and administrative expenses. |
These increases in our earnings were partially offset by:
| |
• | a $150 million decrease in gross margin in our Wood Products segment, primarily due to lower sales realizations in OSB and lumber; and |
| |
• | a $34 million increase in tax expense primarily due to higher earnings in our TRS. |

Net contribution to earnings increased $56 million – 49 percent – primarily due to the following:
| |
• | a $35 million increase due to the purchase of Longview Timber, |
| |
• | a $10 million increase due to more timberland exchanges and higher and better-use land sales, |
| |
• | a $6 million increase due to higher log prices in our legacy Western timberlands and the South partially offset by lower sales volumes in the South; and |
| |
• | a $4 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding Longview Timber. |
Comparing Year-to-Date 2014 with Year-to-Date 2013
Net sales – unaffiliated customers

Comparing Second Quarter 2014 with Second Quarter 2013
Net sales
Net sales increased $14 million – 3 percent – primarily due to increased sales realizations in pulp of $48 per ton – 6 percent, partially offset by decreased sales volumes of 2 percent.
Net contribution to earnings
Net contribution to earnings increased $34 million – 60 percent – primarily due to the following:
| |
• | a $29 million increase in pulp and liquid packaging board sales realizations and |
| |
• | an $8 million decrease in maintenance costs due to fewer planned maintenance outage days. |
These increases were partially offset by a $6 million increase in energy costs primarily due to reduced electricity sales.
Comparing Year-to-Date 2014 with Year-to-Date 2013
Net sales
Net sales were comparable as the following changes offset one another:
| |
• | Increased sales realizations in pulp of $38 per ton – 5 percent, which was partially offset by decreased sales volumes of 4 percent related to timing of shipments. |
| |
• | Decreased sales volumes of 8 percent for liquid packaging board, which was partially offset by increased sales realizations of $65 per ton – 6 percent. |
Net contribution to earnings
Net contribution to earnings increased $57 million – 65 percent – primarily due to the following:
| |
• | a $44 million increase in pulp and liquid packaging board sales realizations; |
| |
• | a $14 million decrease in Canadian operating costs due to the strengthening U.S. dollar, higher productivity and lower freight costs; and |
| |
• | a $13 million decrease in maintenance costs due to fewer planned maintenance outage days and fewer major projects. |
These increases were partially offset by a $12 million increase in energy costs primarily due to reduced electricity sales and adverse weather.

UNALLOCATED ITEMS
Unallocated Items are gains or charges not related to or allocated to an individual operating segment. They include a portion of items such as: share-based compensation, pension and postretirement costs, foreign exchange transaction gains and losses associated with outstanding borrowings and the elimination of intersegment profit in inventory and the LIFO reserve.

Changes in Unallocated Items were primarily related to:
| |
• | a $45 million pretax gain recognized in second quarter 2014 and a $90 million pretax gain recognized in first half 2014 related to a previously announced postretirement plan amendment; |
| |
• | a $22 million pretax gain recognized in first quarter 2014 on the sale of a landfill in Washington State, which is recorded in "Other operating income, net" in our Consolidated Statement of Operations; and |
| |
• | $6 million in charges recognized in second quarter 2014 and $24 million in charges recognized in first half 2014 related to our selling, general and administrative cost reduction initiative. |
INTEREST EXPENSE
Our interest expense, net of capitalized interest incurred was:
| |
• | $83 million during second quarter 2014 and $166 million during year-to-date 2014 and |
| |
• | $80 million during second quarter 2013 and $162 million during year-to-date 2013. |
INCOME TAXES
Our provision for income taxes for our continuing operations was:
| |
• | $59 million during second quarter 2014 and $109 million during year-to-date 2014 and |
| |
• | $36 million during second quarter 2013 and $75 million during year-to-date 2013. |
Our provision for income taxes is higher in 2014 primarily due to higher earnings in our TRS.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We are committed to maintaining an appropriate capital structure that enables us to:
| |
• | protect the interests of our shareholders and lenders, |
| |
• | have access at all times to all major financial markets and |
| |
• | minimize liquidity risk by managing timing of debt maturities. |
CASH FROM OPERATIONS
Consolidated net cash provided by our operations was:
| |
• | $431 million in 2014 and |
Comparing 2014 with 2013
Net cash from operations increased $118 million in 2014 as compared with 2013, primarily due to:
| |
• | a $245 million increase in cash received from customers as sales increased in our Timberlands segment and discontinued operations; and |
| |
• | a $39 million increase in cash received from tax refunds. |
These increases were partially offset by an $184 million increase in cash paid to employees and suppliers as sales and production increased in our Timberlands segment and discontinued operations.
Expected Pension Contributions and Benefit Payments
As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, in 2014 we expect to:
| |
• | make approximately $53 million of required contributions to our Canadian registered pension plan; |
| |
• | make $3 million of required contributions or benefit payments to our Canadian nonregistered pension plans; |
| |
• | make benefit payments of $20 million for our U.S. nonqualified pension plans; and |
| |
• | make benefit payments of $35 million for our U.S. and Canadian other postretirement plans. |
We do not anticipate making a contribution to our U.S. qualified pension plan for 2014.
CASH FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES
Consolidated net cash used by investing activities was:
| |
• | $139 million in 2014 and |
Comparing 2014 with 2013
Net cash used by investing activities increased $68 million in 2014 as compared with 2013, primarily due to higher capital spending.

Variable Interest Entities
In second quarter 2013, we repaid a $162 million note and received $184 million related to one of our timber monetization special-purpose entities (SPEs) undertaken in 2003. Net proceeds were $22 million. More information about these entities, which were formed in connection with the sale of nonstrategic timberlands in 2003, can be found in our annual reports on Form 10-K for 2013 and 2003.
CASH FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES
Consolidated net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was:
| |
• | $(219) million in 2014 and |
Comparing 2014 with 2013
Net cash for financing activities changed $1,441 million to an outflow in 2014 as compared with an inflow in 2013, primarily due to the issuance of common and preference shares in 2013.
Longview Timber Purchase
following:
| |
• | 29 million common shares on June 18, 2013, at the price of $27.75 per share for net proceeds of $781 million; and |
| |
• | 13.8 million of our 6.375 percent Mandatory Convertible Preference Shares, Series A, par value $1.00 and liquidation preference of $50.00 per share on June 18, 2013, for net proceeds of $669 million. |
We paid $11 million in fees related to a bridge loan in second quarter 2013. As of the close of the Longview Timber purchase, we never used the loan and these fees were expensed in third quarter 2013.
Debt
During June 2014, our wholly owned subsidiary, WRECO, issued $450 million of unsecured and unsubordinated senior obligations bearing an interest rate of 4.375 percent due June 15, 2019 and $450 million of unsecured and unsubordinated senior obligations bearing an interest rate of 5.875 percent due June 15, 2024, which are included in "Noncurrent liabilities of discontinued operations" in our Consolidated Balance Sheet and were transferred along with other WRECO assets and liabilities as part of the Real Estate Divestiture. The net proceeds after deducting the discount were $887 million and are included in "Current assets of discontinued operations" in our Consolidated Balance Sheet. There were no payments of debt in 2014. We repaid debt of $177 million in 2013. There are no debt maturities in the next 12 months.
Revolving credit facility
Weyerhaeuser Company has a $1 billion 5-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility that expires in September 2018. As of June 16, 2014, WRECO terminated its participation as a borrower in the facility.
There were no net proceeds from the issuance of debt or from borrowings (repayments) under our available credit facility in year-to-date 2014 or 2013.
Debt Covenants
As of June 30, 2014 Weyerhaeuser Company was in compliance with all debt covenants. There have been no significant changes during year-to-date 2014 to our debt covenants presented in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Option Exercises
We received cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options of:
The decrease in cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options year-to-date is primarily due to unusually high stock option exercises in year-to-date 2013, 81 percent of total 2013 proceeds. This was primarily caused by our average stock price being 47 percent higher in year-to-date 2013 than the prior period. Exercises returned to normal levels by first quarter 2014 due to less volatility in stock price. In year-to-date 2014, our average stock price was $30.16 compared to $30.29 in year-to-date 2013.

The increase in dividends paid is primarily due to the increase in our quarterly dividend from 17 cents per share to 20 cents per share in April 2013 and to 22 cents per share in August 2013, a 29 percent increase in our quarterly dividend.
On April 10, 2014, our Board of Directors declared a dividend of 79.69 cents per share on our 6.375 percent Mandatory Convertible Preference Shares, Series A, payable on July 1, 2014, to shareholders of record at the close of business June 15, 2014.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
There have been no significant changes during year-to-date 2014 to our critical accounting policies presented in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
No changes occurred during year-to-date 2014 that had a material effect on the information relating to quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk that was provided in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure controls are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2014, based on an evaluation of the company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of that date.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS
No changes occurred in the company’s internal control over financial reporting during second quarter 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the company’s internal control over financial reporting.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
RISK FACTORS
Our risk factors are discussed in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following information updates, and should be read in conjunction with, the risk factors disclosed in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Canadian Aboriginal Rights
On June 26, 2014, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that the Tsilhqot’in First Nation has aboriginal title over approximately 430,000 acres in British Columbia. This decision confirms that aboriginal title claims can result in the transfer of public lands and resources to aboriginal ownership and control. We are not directly affected by the Tsilhqot’in ruling, but could be affected in the future if First Nations in our Princeton, BC, operating area are able to establish title. We believe that the decision will not have a significant effect on our total harvest of timber or production of forest products in 2014, although such claims may have such an effect in the future. We anticipate that such claims will not disproportionally affect Weyerhaeuser as compared to similar operations of Canadian competitors.
