Financial Performance:
財務業績：
Canfor Corporation reported an operating loss of $57 million in its lumber business, primarily due to weak lumber pricing and supply issues in British Columbia.
There was a slight recovery of $30 million from a previously recorded inventory write-down and a noncash duty expense of $15 million.
European operations generated a cash earning of $31 million, demonstrating the value of their diversification strategy.
Canfor Pulp division improved its losses from the previous quarter, with an adjusted operating loss of $16 million.
Despite losses, the company's balance sheet remains robust to support reinvestment in the lumber business.
Canfor Corporation報告稱，其木材業務的營業虧損爲5700萬美元，這主要是由於不列顛哥倫比亞省的木材價格疲軟和供應問題。
從先前記錄的庫存減記和1,500萬美元的非現金關稅支出中小幅回收了3000萬美元。
歐洲業務創造了3,100萬美元的現金收益，這表明了其多元化戰略的價值。
Canfor Pulp分部的虧損比上一季度有所改善，調整後的營業虧損爲1,600萬美元。
儘管出現虧損，但該公司的資產負債表仍然強勁，以支持對木材業務的再投資。
