| The European Sawlog Price Index reached its lowest level in six years in the 3Q/16 because of lower lumber demand and reduced prices in both domestic and export markets Walden-Mott Corp. 01-10-2017 16:17:15 |
| Seattle, WA -- Over the past two years, sawlog prices have fallen more in Europe than in
any other region of the world. In the 3Q/16, the European Sawlog Price Index (ESPI-€)
was down a modest 0.5% from the previous quarter to €83.40/m3. The Index has trended
downward for the past few years and in 2016 has been at its lowest level since 2010.
Much of the recent decline has been the result of reduced demand for lumber in some
markets and generally lower lumber prices in both domestic and export markets.
