Boise Cascade's third quarter sales decreased to $1.7 billion

Boise Cascade Company reported net income of $91.0 million, or $2.33 per share, on sales of $1.7 billion for the Q3 ended September 30, 2024, compared with net income of $143.1 million, or $3.58 per share, on sales of $1.8 billion for the Q3 ended September 30, 2023.

Wood Products

Wood Products' sales, including sales to Building Materials Distribution (BMD), decreased $61.3 million, or 12%, to $453.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, from $515.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease in sales was driven by lower plywood sales prices, as well as lower sales prices for LVL and I-joists (collectively referred to as EWP). In addition, lower sales volumes for I-joists decreased sales, while sales volumes for LVL and plywood were flat. Other sales related to lumber and residual byproducts also decreased.

Building Materials Distribution

BMD's sales decreased $102.8 million, or 6%, to $1,567.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, from $1,670.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Compared with the same quarter in the prior year, the overall decrease in sales was driven by a sales price decrease of 6%, as sales volumes were flat. Excluding the impact of the BROSCO acquisition on October 2, 2023, sales would have decreased by 9%. By product line, commodity sales decreased 12%, general line product sales increased 4%, and EWP sales (substantially all of which are sourced through our Wood Products segment) decreased 14%.

"In what has proven to be a moderate demand environment, once again, we were able to deliver good financial results in the third quarter. We could not have done this without the tremendous efforts of our associates and our unique combination of best-in-class engineered wood products and an unmatched nationwide wholesale distribution network," stated Nate Jorgensen, CEO. "In addition, we continue to progress on our key strategic investment initiatives and thoughtfully deploy capital to shareholders. Looking forward, we expect normal seasonality through the winter months, and are well positioned to serve and support our customer and vendor partners as changes in demand dictate."

Boise Cascade Company is one of the largest producers of engineered wood products and plywood in North America and a leading U.S. wholesale distributor of building products.
