Acquisitions

On December 21, 2015, we announced that we and our wholly-owned subsidiary, Boise Cascade Wood Products, L.L.C., had entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated December 18, 2015 (the "Agreement"), with Georgia-Pacific LLC and certain of its affiliates (collectively, "GP") to purchase GP's engineered lumber production facilities located at Thorsby, Alabama, and Roxboro, North Carolina (the "Acquisition"). The Thorsby facility produces laminated veneer lumber (LVL). The Roxboro facility currently produces I-joists. Roxboro’s LVL production assets are currently idled.

The purchase price for the Acquisition is $215 million, including a closing date working capital target of $25 million. We plan to finance the Acquisition and related expenses with approximately $90 million of cash on hand and $130 million in new borrowings. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2016.
