Earnings Call Sentiment|Neutral
The call presents a mixed picture: significant near-term challenges from sharply increased U.S. duties/tariffs, a large 2025 net loss ($35.7M), curtailed operations and working capital strain created material downside risks. Offsetting these negatives are meaningful lender support (Pender and BDC), a clear operational plan to return to 2-shift production with estimated conversion cost savings ($50–$70 per 1,000), identified quick-payback capex (~$11M for >$4M EBITDA uplift), and a pathway to EBITDA-positive months in late 2026 assuming improved pricing/duty relief and restored inventory. Given the balance of material negatives and credible near-term mitigants/financings, the tone is cautious but constructive.
Company Guidance
Conifex guided that 2026 will be a transition year—curtailment and single-shift operations in H1 moving to steady two-shift operations in H2—with management saying a single shift is not expected to be EBITDA positive under 2026 SPF consensus pricing while a two‑shift run rate should be EBITDA positive in the closing months (conversion cost improvement of roughly $50–$70 per 1,000 board feet going to two shifts; Q4 ran at ~46% capacity). FY2025 headwinds included duty deposit rates rising from 14.4% to 35.16% plus a new 10% tariff (total 45.16%), $26.1M of duty/tariff charges expensed, a $35.7M net loss (including a $15.3M one‑time non‑cash 2023 duty underpayment), and tight liquidity addressed by Pender financings ($25M term loan June 2024, +$8.5M Q1'25, +$5M Sep/Oct'25, +$8M late 2025) and a $19M BDC loan (matures 2033, interest = BDC floating base rate −60 bps, principal repayments begin Aug 2028; $8M used to retire Pender advances); long‑term debt was temporarily reclassified as current at Dec 31, 2025 but is expected to be reversed in Q1. Management also targets >$11M of quick‑payback capital projects (>$4M EBITDA upside, <3‑year payback) and is seeking additional capital (noting some government programs have ~$30M minimums) to build sawlog inventory (regional supply ~10M m3 vs local demand ~8M m3) and secure two‑shift sustainability.
Secured Bridge and Longer-Term Financing
Obtained significant lender support: Pender Fund advances (initial $25.0M term loan in June 2024 plus ~$21.5M in follow-ons through 2025) and a $19.0M secured term loan from BDC under the softwood lumber guarantee program (matures 2033, interest = BDC floating base rate - 60 bps). $8.0M of BDC proceeds retired short-term Pender advances and the BDC loan reduces near-term covenant risk.
Clear operational recovery plan (2026 transition year)
Management plans curtailment/single-shift in H1 2026 progressing to steady 2-shift operations in H2 2026; restarted 2-shift in February and reported performance 'well above targets' on many shifts, targeting consistent 2-shift operations to achieve EBITDA-positive months in closing months of 2026.
Concrete cost improvement opportunities
Identified quick-payback capital projects totaling just over $11.0M expected to generate >$4.0M EBITDA annually (implying <3-year payback). Conversion cost dilution benefit from moving to 2-shift estimated at ~$50–$70 per 1,000 (board feet).
Log supply and competitive position
Operate in a timber supply area with surplus sawlog availability (approx. 10M m3 supply vs 8M m3 max local demand), supporting relatively affordable stumpage. Management expects McKenzie to be in the bottom half of the SBF cost curve after planned improvements and benefits from a richer B.C. lumber mix (noted USD ~$50 regional pricing advantage vs eastern mills).
Business diversification supported operations
Biomass power generation revenue diversification helped sustain McKenzie operations during broader curtailments, demonstrating the value of non-lumber cash flows.
Temporary accounting issue explained and expected reversal
Long-term debt was temporarily reclassified as current under IFRS as of December 31, 2025 due to timing of BDC formalization; management expects this reclassification to be reversed when Q1 results are released.
