LP Reports Second Quarter 2006 Profits
Nashville, TN. (July 26, 2006) - Louisiana-Pacific Corporation (LP) (NYSE: LPX) reported today second quarter net income of $55 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, on sales from continuing operations of $653 million. In the second quarter of 2005, LPs net income was $100 million, or $0.90 per diluted share, on sales from continuing operations of $692 million. For the first six months of 2006, LP reported net income of $139 million, or $1.31 per diluted share, on sales from continuing operations of $1.33 billion compared to net income of $202 million, or $1.82 per diluted share, on sales from continuing operations of $1.35 billion for the first six months of 2005.
For the second quarter of 2006, income from continuing operations was $55 million, or $0.52 per diluted share. In the second quarter of 2005, LPs income from continuing operations was $104 million, or $0.94 per diluted share. For the first six months 2006, income from continuing operations was $140 million, or $1.32 per diluted share. For the first six months of 2005, income from continuing operations was $210 million, or $1.89 per diluted share.
Lower OSB pricing levels and the strength of the Canadian dollar reduced our earnings for the second quarter, said CEO Rick Frost. OSB pricing has come off hard as customers work
1
to understand the direction of the construction market over the next three to six months. On a positive note, LP recorded the second successive quarter of good earnings from our non-OSB businesses, primarily siding and engineered wood products.
Frost continued, We are seeing some regional weakening in new residential construction, which has caused a broad softening in the housing market. However, we continue to rely on our assumptions that solid demographic trends support a strong housing and repair and remodel markets in the mid-to-long term.
Curt Stevens, LP executive vice president, administration and CFO said, We remain on course in the execution of our financial strategy, and continue to benefit from a strong financial position. In the second quarter, we paid down $110 million (CDN) on a term loan and repurchased one million shares of LP stock. As planned, LPs strong financial position allows us to weather periods of weaker market demand, and provides us the opportunity to strengthen our market share during these slowdowns.
At 11:00 a.m. ET (8:00 a.m. PT) today, LP will host a webcast on its second quarter 2006 financial results. To access the live webcast and accompanying presentation, visit www.lpcorp.com and go to the Investor Relations section from the main menu.

Accounting standards require that income tax expense be determined using 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 six months ended June 30, 2006, the primary differences between the U.S. statutory rate of 35% and the effective rate on continuing operations relate to the companys foreign debt structure, state income taxes, and a second quarter reduction in LPs Canadian deferred tax liabilities due to an enacted decrease in the statutory income tax rate. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, the differences between the U.S. statutory rate of 35% and the effective rate on continuing operations relate to the companys foreign debt structure and state income taxes.
The components and associated effective income tax rates applied to each period are as follows:
