FISCAL YEAR 2016 HIGHLIGHTS

For fiscal year 2016, net earnings amounted to $128 million ($2.04 per share) compared to net earnings of $142 million ($2.24 per share) for fiscal year 2015. The Company had earnings before items1 of $178 million ($2.84 per share) for fiscal year 2016 compared to earnings before items1 of $211 million ($3.33 per share) for fiscal year 2015. Sales amounted to $5.1 billion for fiscal year 2016.

Commenting on the full-year results, John D. Williams, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our businesses generated strong EBITDA and cash flow in a challenging macro-economic and competitive environment. This allowed us to further execute on our growth strategy, while returning cash to our shareholders.”

QUARTERLY REVIEW

“Our pulp business shipped record volumes of softwood in the fourth quarter. Nevertheless, the segment was impacted by lower prices and higher costs,” said John D. Williams, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Personal Care began manufacturing baby diapers using Ashdown fluff pulp with initial trials providing good results. This production is the first step towards qualifying Ashdown fluff pulp for the hygiene market.”

Mr. Williams added, “The fourth quarter marked our highest Personal Care sales and EBITDA of the year, which included the results of our recent HDIS acquisition. We are scaling up our capabilities in the rapidly growing direct-to-consumer channel, while expanding our partner-brand strategy to capture sales growth and higher margins by continuing to differentiate the way we sell our products.”

Operating income was $74 million in the fourth quarter of 2016 compared to an operating income of $92 million in the third quarter of 2016. Depreciation and amortization totaled $85 million in the fourth quarter of 2016.

Operating income before items1 was $74 million in the fourth quarter of 2016 compared to an operating income before items1 of $107 million in the third quarter of 2016.

The decrease in operating income in the fourth quarter of 2016 was the result of lower average selling prices, higher raw material costs, lower productivity and higher maintenance costs. These factors were partially offset by an increase in pulp sales volume and favorable exchange rates.

When compared to the third quarter of 2016, manufactured paper shipments were down 1% and pulp shipments increased 12%. The shipments-to-production ratio for paper was 104% in the fourth quarter of 2016, compared to 102% in the third quarter of 2016. Paper inventories decreased by 22,000 tons and pulp inventories increased by 19,000 metric tons when compared to the third quarter of 2016.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL

Cash flow provided from operating activities amounted to $155 million, and capital expenditures were $45 million, resulting in free cash flow1 of $110 million for the fourth quarter of 2016. Domtar’s net debt-to-total capitalization ratio1 stood at 30% at December 31, 2016 and at September 30, 2016.

OUTLOOK

In 2017, we expect our paper shipments to be in-line with market demand, while pulp shipments should be higher due to the conversion of a paper machine to a fluff pulp line. We anticipate some volatility in softwood and fluff pulp markets due to the strong U.S. dollar and new capacity additions. Costs, including freight, labor and raw materials, are expected to marginally increase. In Personal Care, investments in advertising and promotion in addition to new customer wins should drive higher sales.

“Operating income (loss) before items”, “EBITDA before items” and “EBITDA margin before items” have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies and therefore should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for Operating income (loss) or any other earnings statement, cash flow statement or balance sheet financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. It is important for readers to understand that certain items may be presented in different lines by different companies on their financial statements, thereby leading to different measures for different companies.
