Growth & Yield forecast Management Plan CFI DBH Individual volume Projection Models Project variables to future conditions Flexible age of future thinnings Optimization Best outcome given assumptions and restrictions
Growth & Yield forecast Decision tree of possible harvesting regimes Management Plan
2016 – Planning Criteria. CONSIDERED CONDITIONS AND RESTRICTIONS Basal area of increased competition Market liquidity for each diameter class Stable wood supply Management Plan
2016 – Planning Criteria Basal area of increased competition We consider areas in thinning condition when basal area reaches 12 m²/ha. This trigger has been set based on experiments that showed that increment on DBH starts to be affected as the basal area reaches this state. Market Liquidity Logs with diameter from 16 cm to 25 cm face a liquidity problem; Need to be processed to find better market condition m³ per month Stable supply Logs with diameter greater then 25 cm; m³ per month Management Plan
2016 – Planning Criteria Management Plan Final harvest decision is based on NPV analysis and areas will be scheduled along the coming years to ensure a stable export market supply.
2016 – Planning Criteria Management Plan Risks involved in waiting longer for final harvest Funghi (more than 20 K m³ harvested in last 2 years in older plantations) Wind Uncentainty in projections (lack of data for older ages) Market uncertainty – price appreciation on larger diameter Economical risks – inflation, exchange rates etc... A fourth thinning will add a USD 3.000/ha cost ‘Better one bird in the hand in than 10 in the air’
2016 – Projected Woodflow – Total Floresteca MT Management Plan
2016 – Areas eligible for harvesting Management Plan
Harvesting Report 2015 Accumulated year-end volumes sold
Harvesting Report Outlook Final Harvest Investors’ Revenues Total USD 467 M Projections under a flat scenario No inflation, no price appreciation, current market conditions
Harvesting Report Outlook Price Increase Impact Investor result (USD) for different price appreciation rates
2016 – Roadside Prices Management Plan Market prices are based on third party intelligence Firewood markets are down and we are currently not able to sell our whole production For 20-25, a sharp price drop was observed due to current oversupply. High proportional impact of transportation costs for this class. From MT, there is currently no market for wood up to 25 due to logistics, unless firewood or processing 25 and up, roadside prices are lower than previous estimates > 40, First time accessing these markets, main market (China) is cooling down
Enhanced returns from Sales & Trading Activities Negotiate best prices from logistic partners Strategy to sell all forest product Negotiate best possible prices Establish reliable customer base Constant supply to market Use economy of scale Mitigate markets risks by having available market intelligence Tax efficiency
Enhanced returns from Sales & Trading Activities Market approach Floresteca: Processing raw material to fit market (maximize usable wood) Maintaining existing and wide spread customer base in Asia and local Operating dedicated and experienced sales team on the ground in both Brasil and Asia
