The company reported operating income of $217 million in the quarter, compared to $235 million in the first quarter.

The overall impact of pricing was neutral as higher realized transaction prices in the pulp and paper segments were offset by lower average transaction prices in the wood products segment. The company also recorded higher freight ($8 million) and selling, general and administrative expenses ($4 million).
