Factors Influencing WY’s Q1 Results
Weyerhaeuser's first-quarter 2025 results are expected to reflect a mixed picture, with a downward revision for its Wood Products segment offset by stronger-than-expected performance in Timberlands.
In late March, Weyerhaeuser revised its first-quarter outlook. Weyerhaeuser revised down its first-quarter 2025 Wood Products guidance, now expecting EBITDA to be approximately $35 million lower than in the fourth quarter of 2024. This shift reflects a combination of operational challenges, including higher-than-expected western log costs, weather-driven increases in lumber manufacturing costs, and production disruptions from a fire at an MDF plant, which impacted Engineered Wood Products. Additionally, weaker-than-anticipated sales volumes across most product categories added further pressure.
Our model predicts Wood Products segment’s revenues (which accounted for approximately 73.9% of fourth-quarter 2024 revenues) to decline 0.3% year over year but grow 2.8% sequentially to $1.3 billion in the quarter. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to decline 31.1% from a year ago and 21.2% sequentially to $126.8 million.
The Timberlands segment is seeing stronger-than-expected momentum. Weyerhaeuser raised its first-quarter EBITDA guidance by $30 million quarter-over-quarter compared with the prior estimate of $20 million. This is largely driven by improved western domestic sales realizations, pushing expected EBITDA for the segment to approximately $156 million.
We expect the Timberlands segment’s net sales (which accounted for 29.1% of fourth-quarter net sales) to remain flat year over year but up 4.8% sequentially to $520.8 million. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to grow 8.1% from a year ago and up 23.6% sequentially to $155.7 million.
Meanwhile, in the Real Estate, Energy and Natural Resources segment, Weyerhaeuser expects first-quarter earnings and adjusted EBITDA to be comparable sequentially, primarily due to timing and sales mix in real estate.
Our model predicts the Real Estate, Energy and Natural Resources segment’s (which accounted for 5% of fourth-quarter net sales) net sales to be $90.6 million, down 15.3% year over year but up 5.3% sequentially. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be down 18.9% from a year ago but up 0.3% sequentially to $76.2 million.
