FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States that require the use of management’s estimates. Actual results could differ from management’s estimates. Prior-period amounts have been adjusted to conform with current year presentation.
During the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company finalized its purchase of Weyerhaeuser's pulp business (see Note 6). Subsequent to the acquisition, the Company began reporting Global Cellulose Fibers as a separate business segment in the fourth quarter of 2016 due to the increased materiality of the results of this business. This segment includes the Company's legacy pulp business and the newly acquired pulp business. As such, amounts related to the legacy pulp business have been reclassified out of the Printing Papers' business segment and included in the new Global Cellulose Fibers business segment for all prior periods to conform with current year presentation.
