Apr 30, 2008. /Lesprom.com/. The Canfor Pulp Income Fund reported sales of $211.4 million, and a net income of $43.5 million. This translates to $0.61 per share for the quarter that ended March 31, 2008. The impact of stronger pricing for pulp and paper, combined with a relatively stable Canadian dollar helped to position the company favourably, compared to the fourth quarter of 2007, when a net income of $12.1 million on sales of $215.1 million were recorded. Canfor has been subject to higher manufacturing costs, however, in the order of an increase of 4% per unit. Lower production and sales volumes were the results of a fire at the company's Prince George Pulp and Paper mill. Canfor is the largest producer of softwood lumber in Canada while also producing oriented stand board (OSB), plywood, remanufactured lumber products and specialized wood products.
