The 2015 year-to-date effective tax rate was 27.0 percent compared to 23.4 percent for the same period in the prior year. The prior year period reflects the reversal of a tax reserve.

The full year effective tax rate is expected to be between 33 and 34 percent.

Outlook
“We continue to focus on our 2015 initiatives to reduce costs, optimize our assets and grow our business,” said Boynton. “To that end, this morning we announced a strategic repositioning to better align our assets to current market conditions. Additionally, earlier in the quarter, we entered into a non-binding letter of intent to form a joint venture with Borregaard ASA that would process lignin produced at our Fernandina plant, currently used for energy, into higher-value products. These actions, combined with our cost-savings initiatives, will further our ability to compete effectively and position ourselves for near and long-term success.”
