BUSINESS SUMMARY 
Potlatch Corporation operates as a real estate investment trust (REIT) that owns and manages timberlands located in Arkansas, Idaho, Minnesota, and Oregon, the United States. It operates in five segments: New Resource, New Land Sales and Development, Wood Products, Pulp and Paperboard, and Consumer Products. The New Resource segment manages its timberlands, harvests timber, procures other wood fiber, buys and sells log, and enters into recreational and hunting leases. The New Land Sales and Development segment develops and sells land parcels, as well as invests in timberlands. The Wood Products segment manufactures lumber, plywood, and particleboard in Arkansas, Idaho, Michigan, and Minnesota. This segment's products are sold to wholesalers primarily for use in home building and other construction activities. The Pulp and Paperboard segment manufactures bleached paperboard used in packaging and bleached softwood market pulp. The Consumer Products segment manufactures tissue products primarily sold on a private label basis to grocery store chains. As an REIT, it would not be subject to federal income taxes as it distributes at least 90% of its taxable income to its stockholders. As of March 31, 2006, the company owned and managed approximately 1.5 million acres of timberlands. Potlatch was founded in 1903 and is based in Spokane, Washington.
