Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition
The information in this item and Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2, attached hereto, is being furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission and shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
On November 3, 2015, Louisiana - Pacific Corporation issued a press release announcing financial results for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the attached press release discloses continuing earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Additionally, it discloses Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations which further adjusts EBITDA to exclude stock based compensation expense, (gain) loss on sales or impairment of long lived assets, other operating charges and credits, investment income, cost of potential acquisitions and depreciation included in equity in loss (earnings) of unconsolidated affiliates. It also discloses adjusted income (loss) which excludes (gain) loss on sale or impairment of long-lived assets, cost of acquisition, other operating credits and charges, net, cost of potential acquisitions and adjusts for a normalized tax rate. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and adjusted loss from continuing operations are not a substitute for the GAAP measure of net income or operating cash flows or other GAAP measures of operating performance or liquidity. A copy of the reconciliation of adjusted loss, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and Exhibit 99.3 and incorporated herein by reference.
We have EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations in the press release because we use them as important supplemental measures of our performance and believe that similarly-titled measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested persons in the evaluation of companies in our industry, some of which present similarly-titled measures when reporting their results. We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations to evaluate our performance as compared to other companies in our industry that have different financing and capital structures and/or tax rates. It should be noted that companies calculate similarly-titled measures differently and, therefore, as presented by us may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures reported by other companies. In addition, EBITDA has material limitations as a performance measure because it excludes interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense and depreciation and amortization which are necessary to operate our business or which we otherwise incurred or experienced in connection with the operation of our business.
We believe that adjusted income (loss) which excludes (gain) loss on sale or impairment of long-lived assets, other operating credits and charges, net, cost of potential acquisitions, adjusted for a normalized tax rate is a useful measure for evaluating our ability to generate earnings and that providing this measure will allow investors to more readily compare the earnings referred to in the press release to our earnings for past and future periods. We believe that this measure is particularly useful where the amounts of the excluded items are not consistent between the periods presented. It should be noted that other companies may present similarly-titled measures differently and, therefore, as presented by us may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures reported by other companies. In addition, adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations has material limitations as a performance measure because it excludes items that are actually incurred or experienced in connection with the operations of our business.

LP Reports Third Quarter 2015 Results

Louisiana-Pacific Corporation (LP) (NYSE: LPX) reported today results for the third quarter of 2015, which included the following:

Sales for the third quarter of $465 million were lower by 10 percent compared to the year ago quarter.
Net loss from continuing operations was $25 million ($0.17 per diluted share).
Non-GAAP adjusted loss from continuing operations was $16 million ($0.12 per diluted share).
Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the third quarter was $11 million compared to $12 million in the third quarter of 2014.
Cash and cash equivalents were $448 million as of September 30, 2015.

“All of LP’s operating segments were adjusted EBITDA positive in the third quarter. While our OSB prices averaged 7% below the third quarter of last year, we did see a steady rise in Random Lengths pricing which began in August which has continued into this quarter" said Curt Stevens, chief executive officer. "I’m also pleased to report that we began initial production of siding products from our Swan Valley, Manitoba mill last week, on time and on budget” he concluded.

For the third quarter of 2015, LP reported net loss of $27 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $20 million, or $0.14 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2014. Reductions in OSB pricing accounted for an $18 million decrease in both operating results and adjusted EBITDA.

YEAR TO DATE RESULTS

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, LP reported net sales of $1.4 billion compared to $1.5 billion in the first nine months of 2014. For the first nine months of 2015, LP reported net loss of $81 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, compared to loss of $33 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the same period in 2014. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the the first nine months of 2015 was $33 million compared to $61 million for 2014. Reductions in OSB pricing accounted for an $81 million decrease in both operating results and adjusted EBITDA.

ORIENTED STRAND BOARD (OSB) SEGMENT

LP's OSB segment manufactures and distributes OSB structural panel products. The OSB segment reported net sales for the third quarter of 2015 of $200 million, a 14 percent decrease from $233 million of net sales in the third quarter of 2014. For the third quarter of 2015, the OSB segment reported an operating loss of $11 million compared to $16 million in the third quarter of 2014. For the third quarter of 2015, adjusted EBITDA for this segment increased by $5 million





compared to the third quarter of 2014. For the third quarter of 2015 as compared to third quarter of 2014, sales volumes decreased 9 percent and sales prices decreased by 7 percent. The decrease in selling price unfavorably impacted operating results and adjusted EBITDA by approximately $16 million for the quarter as compared to the third quarter of 2014.
 
SIDING SEGMENT

LP's Siding segment consists of SmartSide siding as well as LP's prefinished CanExel siding line. These products are used in new construction as well as in the repair and remodeling markets. The Siding segment reported net sales of $158 million in the third quarter of 2015, a decrease of 3 percent from $163 million in the year-ago third quarter. For the third quarter of 2015, the Siding segment reported operating income of $17 million compared to $21 million in the year-ago quarter. For the third quarter of 2015, the Siding segment reported $22 million in adjusted EBITDA, a decrease of $3 million compared to the third quarter of 2014.

ENGINEERED WOOD PRODUCTS SEGMENT (EWP)

The EWP segment is comprised of I-Joist (IJ), Laminated Veneer Lumber and Laminated Strand Lumber (LVL and LSL). EWP sales in the third quarter of 2015 totaled $74 million, down 4 percent from the year-ago quarter. Operating losses increased to $1 million for the third quarter of 2015 from breakeven in the third quarter of 2014. For the third quarter, the EWP segment showed a decrease of $2 million in adjusted EBITDA as compared to the same quarter in 2014.

SOUTH AMERICA SEGMENT

The South American segment consists of facilities in Chile and Brazil. The segment reported sales in the third quarter of 2015 of $27 million, down 26 percent from $36 million in the third quarter of 2014. Operating income was $2 million for the third quarter of 2015 compared to breakeven in the third quarter of 2014. For the third quarter, LP reported adjusted EBITDA in this segment of $4 million, an increase of $2 million as compared to the third quarter of 2014.

COMPANY OUTLOOK

“With homebuilder confidence at a ten year high and OSB prices continuing to increase, I am optimistic that LP’s results will continue to improve over the next several quarters,” continued Stevens.  “The longer term housing forecasts consistently show increased housing starts in each of the next three years as the industry begins to fill the gap created during the protracted downturn.”

LP is a premier supplier of building materials, delivering innovative, high-quality commodity and specialty products to its retail, wholesale, homebuilding and industrial customers.
