“Both the continued deterioration in the market for new residential construction and the rising Canadian dollar drove our third-quarter operating results down,” said Chief Executive Officer Rick Frost. “In addition, the negative near-term housing forecast led us to curtail production at several operations and to permanently close two mills.”

NOTES TO FINANCIAL DATA
(Dollar amounts in millions, except per share amounts) (Unaudited)
1. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for an entire year.
2. As of January 1, 2007, LP adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Staff Position AUG AIR-1, “Accounting for Planned Major Maintenance Activities” and FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” and accordingly adjusted the beginning balance of retained earnings for these standards.
3. LP has announced its intent to divest its decking operations. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” LP is required to account for the businesses anticipated to be sold within one year as discontinued operations. Accordingly, commencing with the quarter ended June 30, 2007, LP is classifying its decking operations as discontinued operations and has reclassified all periods presented in the same manner.
4. The major components of “Other operating credits and charges, net” and “(Gain) loss on sale or impairment of long lived assets” in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the quarter and nine month period ended September 30 are described below:
In the first quarter of 2007, LP recorded a charge of $5.0 million to reduce the carrying value of a sawmill mill located in Quebec to the estimated sales price less selling costs.
In the second quarter of 2007, LP recorded a gain of $17.7 million associated with proceeds received associated with a favorable verdict on a legal suit associated with our insurance on hardboard siding and a gain of $1.5 million associated with a settlement with the Canadian government on the reduction of certain of LP’s timber licenses in British Columbia.
In the third quarter of 2007, LP recorded a further gain of $0.6 associated with a favorable verdict on a legal suit associated with our insurance on hardboard siding, a charge of $1.5 million to reduce the carrying value of a laminated veneer lumber mill located in Hines, Oregon to the estimated sales prices less selling costs and a charge of $47.3 million to reduce the carrying value and associated timber assets of an Eastern Canadian OSB mill to its net realizable value.
In the third quarter of 2006, LP recorded a gain of $2.8 million associated with insurance recoveries related to the hurricanes which occurred in the third and fourth quarter of 2005.

Accounting standards require that income tax expense be determined by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate (based upon estimated annual amounts of taxable income and expense) by income component for the year applied to year-to-date income or loss at the end of each quarter, further adjusted by any changes in reserve requirements or the impact of statutory tax rate changes, if any. Each quarter the income tax accrual is adjusted to the latest estimate and the difference from the previously accrued year-to-date balance is adjusted to the current quarter.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the primary differences between the U.S. statutory rate of 35% and the effective rate on continuing operations relates to the company’s foreign debt structure, state income taxes and the favorable resolution of an outstanding state tax contingency. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the
8
primary differences between the U.S. statutory rate of 35% and the effective rate on continuing operations relate to the company’s foreign debt structure, state income taxes, and a second quarter reduction in LP’s Canadian deferred tax liabilities due to an enacted decrease in the statutory income tax rate.
The components and associated effective income tax rates applied to each period are as follows:
