Introduction

Deltic Timber Corporation (Deltic or the Company) is a natural resources company engaged primarily in the growing
and harvesting of timber and the manufacture and marketing of lumber. Deltic owns approximately 445,800 acres of timberland, mainly in Arkansas and north Louisiana. The Companys sawmill operations are located at Ola in central Arkansas (the
Ola Mill) and at Waldo in south Arkansas (the Waldo Mill). In addition to its timber and lumber operations, the Company is engaged in real estate development in central Arkansas. The Company also holds a 50 percent interest
in Del-Tin Fiber LLC (Del-Tin Fiber), a joint venture to manufacture and market medium density fiberboard (MDF). Deltic is a calendar-year company for both financial and income tax reporting.

The Company is organized into four segments: (1) Woodlands, which manages all aspects of the Companys timberlands, including
harvesting and sale of timber, timberland sales and acquisitions, oil and gas mineral revenue, and hunting land leases; (2) Mills, which consists of Deltics two sawmills that manufacture a variety of softwood lumber products;
(3) Real Estate, which includes the Companys three active real estate developments and a related country club operation; and (4) Corporate, which consists of executive management, accounting, information systems, human resources,
purchasing, treasury, income tax, and legal staff functions that provide support services to the operating business units. The Company currently does not allocate the cost of maintaining these support functions to its operating units.

Deltic considers its timberlands to be the Companys most valuable asset and the harvest of Company owned stumpage to be its most
significant source of income. The Companys timberlands consist primarily of Southern Pine forests, known in the industry as a type of softwood. The Company follows Sustainable Forest Initiative (SFI) Standards, which is
a system of values, objectives, and performance measures that promote sustainable forest management. The timberlands are actively managed to maximize their long-term value and increased productivity through responsible harvest plans, a commitment to
reforestation, careful road construction, and other best management practices. The timber harvested from Company timberlands is either converted to lumber in the Companys sawmills or sold in the domestic market. The Woodlands stumpage
supplied to the Companys sawmills is transferred at prices that approximate market in the Mills operating area. The Company has continued to acquire timberland in its current operating area since 1999, when it implemented a program to identify
non-strategic timberland and higher and better use lands for possible sale.

The Companys two sawmills employ modern
technology in order to improve efficiency, reduce labor costs, maximize utilization of the timber resource, and maintain high standards for production quality, while keeping safety as one of its highest priorities. In addition, each mill is
strategically located near significant portions of the Companys timberlands, which provide a stable source of raw material stumpage. The mills can produce a variety of lumber products, including dimension lumber, boards, and timbers. These
lumber products are sold primarily to wholesale distributors, lumber treaters, large retailers, industrial accounts and truss manufacturers in the South and Midwest and are used mainly in residential construction, roof trusses, remanufactured
products, and laminated beams. Combined annual permitted capacity of the two mills at December 31, 2010, was 390 million board feet (MMBF). The Companys total finished lumber production was 265 MMBF in 2010 compared to
230 MMBF in 2009 and 246 MMBF in 2008.

The Companys real estate operations were started in 1985 to add value to higher
and better use timberland strategically located in the growth corridor of west Little Rock, Arkansas. Since that time, the Company has been developing Chenal Valley, a premier planned community consisting of 4,800 acres of

residential and commercial properties. The property is being developed in stages, and real estate sales to-date have consisted primarily of residential lots, which are sold to builders or
individuals, and commercial sites. In addition to Chenal Valley, Deltic has developed Chenal Downs, a 400-acre development located just outside Chenal Valley, and is developing Red Oak Ridge, an 800-acre development in Hot Springs, Arkansas.

The Del-Tin Fiber plant is located near El Dorado, Arkansas. Construction of the plant was completed, and initial production
began, in 1998. The plant is designed to have an annual capacity of 150 million square feet (MMSF) on a 3/4 inch basis of medium density fiberboard. MDF, which is used primarily in the furniture, laminate flooring, store fixture,
and molding industries, is manufactured from sawmill residuals such as chips, shavings, and sawdust, which are pressed and held together by an adhesive bond.

Forest Products Industry

Deltic is primarily a wood products producer
operating in a commodity-based business environment, with a major diversification in real estate development. This environment is affected by a number of factors, including general economic conditions, employment levels, interest rates, credit
availability and associated costs, imports, foreign exchange rates, housing starts, unsold new and existing home inventories, residential and commercial real estate foreclosures, residential repair and remodeling, commercial construction, industry
capacity and production levels, the availability of raw material, fuel cost, and weather conditions. The Mills segment has been affected by the decreased number of housing starts in the U.S., which has experienced its lowest levels in 50 years.
Several factors influencing the decrease were the recent economic recession, stricter lending practices and availability of credit brought about by the mortgage loan defaults and construction loan delinquencies that have caused lenders to tighten
credit for new developments. In addition, the overall weakness in the banking industry, new and existing home inventory levels, and employment levels have adversely influenced housing starts. The demand and pricing levels for softwood lumber
products fell dramatically from 2005 to 2009, and the short-lived upward trend experienced in 2010 was due to a temporary supply/demand imbalance. Any recovery in demand and prices is expected to be gradual and over an extended period and depends
primarily on the recovery of the U.S. housing industry. Lumber prices have historically been, and will remain, volatile. Sawtimber prices have generally been more stable than lumber prices, but have seen price reductions due to the closure or
curtailments of several mills in Deltics operating area.

The southern U.S., in which all the Companys operations
are located, is a major timber and lumber producing region. There are an estimated 215 million acres of forestland in the region, of which approximately 43 percent is currently growing softwood. Unlike other major timber-producing areas in
North America, most of this acreage is privately held. The estimated breakdown of ownership of softwood timberland in the southern U.S. is 87 percent private, six percent national forest, and seven percent other public. Although there can be no
assurance, management anticipates that the southern U.S. timber resource will be subject to strong demand for the foreseeable future and also believes that the South will have a strategic advantage over other U.S. timber-producing regions due to
regulatory, geographic, and other factors.

Woodlands

The Company owns approximately 445,800 acres of timberland, primarily in Arkansas and north Louisiana, stocked principally with Southern Pine. Management considers the timberlands to be Deltics most
valuable asset and the harvest of this stumpage to be the Companys most significant source of income.

The approximate
breakdown of the Companys timberland acreage at year-end 2010 consisted of the following:



|                |  |       |         | 
|--------------- |  | ----- | ------- | 
|                |  | Acres |        
|Pine forest     |  |       | 144,700 | 
|Pine plantation |  |       | 214,600 | 
|Hardwood forest |  |       | 11,600  | 
|Other           |  |       | 74,900  | 
|                |  |       |         | 
|Total           |  |       | 445,800 | 
|                |  |       |         | 

The Companys timberlands are well diversified by age class. The timberland classified as pine forest
is primarily managed on an all-aged basis and contains mature timber that is ready to be harvested over the next several years and includes streamside-management zones. Pine plantations are primarily less than 30 years old, with the majority ranging
in age from 5 to 25 years. At the approximate age of 20 years, pine plantations begin transitioning from pine pulpwood to pine sawtimber.

Timber Inventory. The Companys estimated pine sawtimber inventory is calculated for each tract by utilizing growth formulas based on representative sample tracts and tree counts for various
diameter classifications. The calculation of pine inventory is subject to periodic adjustments based on sample cruises and actual volumes harvested. The hardwood inventory shown in the following table is an approximation; therefore, the physical
quantity of such timber may vary significantly from this approximation. Estimated inventory of standing timber as of December 31, 2010, consisted of the following:



|                |  |                       |            | 
|--------------- |  | --------------------- | ---------- | 
|                |  | EstimatedVolume(Tons) |           
|Pine timber     |  |                       |            | 
|Sawtimber       |  |                       | 12,926,000 | 
|Pulpwood        |  |                       | 4,695,000  | 
|                | 
|Hardwood timber |  |                       |            | 
|Sawtimber       |  |                       | 1,385,000  | 
|Pulpwood        |  |                       | 902,000    | 

The Companys
annual harvest of pine sawtimber is used primarily by the Mills segment or sold to third parties. Products that can be manufactured from this resource include dimension lumber, boards, timbers, and decking, which are used mainly in residential
construction. Deltics hardwood sawtimber is sold to third parties and is primarily used in the production of railroad ties, flooring, and pallets. Logs with a diameter of less than nine inches are considered to be pulpwood. Harvests of both
pine and hardwood pulpwood are sold to third parties for use primarily in the manufacture of paper.

Timber Growth.
Timber growth rate is an important variable for forest products companies since it ultimately determines how much timber can be harvested on a sustainable basis. A higher growth rate permits larger annual harvests as replacement timber regenerates.
Growth rates vary depending on species, location, age, and forestry management practices. The growth rate, net of mortality, for Deltics Southern Pine timber averages five to six percent of standing inventory per annum. The Company considers a
30 to 35 year rotation optimal for most pine plantations.

Timberland Management. Forestry practices vary by geographic region and depend on
factors such as soil productivity, weather, terrain, and the species, size, age, and stocking of timber. The Company actively manages its timberlands based on these factors and other relevant information to increase productivity and maximize the
long-term value of its timber assets. In general, the Companys timberland management involves select harvesting and thinning operations, reforestation, cull timber removal programs, and the introduction of genetically improved seedlings.

Deltic has developed and operates its own seed orchard. Seeds from the orchard are grown by third parties to produce
genetically improved seedlings for planting. These seedlings are developed through selective cross-pollination to produce trees with preferred characteristics, such as higher growth rates, fewer limbs, straighter trunks, and greater resistance to
disease. However, this process does not involve genetic engineering. The seedlings are used when a site is completely replanted, as in the case of a final harvest of a mature stand. Primarily using seedlings grown from seeds produced at the orchard
facility, the Company planted 11,500 acres in 2010 and 10,350 acres in 2009. In addition, the Company also replants part or all of any recently planted pine plantation acreage where there has been a high mortality rate. The Company meets or exceeds,
in all material respects, the reforestation recommendations of the Arkansas Forestry Commissions Best Management Practices. In addition, the Company has been certified under the SFI program with regards to its timberland management practices.

The Company actively utilizes commercial thinning practices. Commercial thinning operations consist of the selective removal
of trees within a stand, usually a plantation, to improve overall timber productivity and value by enhancing the growth of the remaining trees while generating revenues from the harvest.

The Companys silviculture program is designed to control undesirable, competitive vegetation in its forests and to increase pine
growth rates and reproduction. Deltic treated about 16,500 acres, 13,400 acres, and 18,000 acres, under this program in 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively.

Harvest Plans. Management views the timberlands as assets with substantial inherent value beyond supplying its sawmills. The Company intends to continue to manage the timberlands on a
sustainable-yield basis that permits regeneration of the timberlands over time and has no plans to harvest timber on an ongoing basis at levels that would diminish its timber inventory. In 2010, the Company harvested 609,867 tons of pine sawtimber
from its timberlands. Under the current plan, Deltic intends to harvest approximately 600,000 tons of pine sawtimber in 2011.

The Companys harvest plans are generally designed to project multi-year harvest schedules. In addition, harvest plans are updated
at least annually and reviewed on a monthly basis to monitor performance and to make any necessary modifications to the plans in response to changing forestry conditions, market conditions, contractual obligations, regulatory limitations, and other
relevant factors.

Since harvest plans are based on projections of demand, price, availability of timber from other sources,
and other factors that may be outside of the Companys control, actual harvesting levels may vary. Management believes that the Companys harvest plans are sufficiently flexible to permit modification in response to fluctuations in the
markets for logs and lumber.

Access. Substantially all of the timberlands are accessible by a system of low impact and
low maintenance roads. Deltic generally uses third-party road crews to conduct construction and maintenance of these roads, and the Company regularly exchanges access easements and cooperates with other area forest products companies, private
landowners, and the U.S. Forest Service.

Wildlife Management. Deltic actively leases Company lands for hunting
purposes and manages wildlife resources on Company property. The Company complies with the U.S. Endangered Species Act and strives to provide, maintain, and/or enhance habitats for all species with special biological or ecological concerns. The
Company leased approximately 433,000, 439,000, and 427,000 acres to hunting clubs in 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively. For the years ended 2010, 2009, and 2008, the Company had hunting lease revenues totaling $2,046,000, $1,893,000, and
$1,782,000, respectively.

Client-Land Management. In addition to managing its own timberlands, Deltic also
manages timberlands owned by others under management contracts with one-year renewable terms. This program provided harvest planning, silvicultural improvements, and maintenance work for approximately 69,600 acres in 2010.

Timberland Acquisitions.The Company implemented a timberland acquisition program in late 1996. This ongoing program is designed
to enable the Company to continue to increase harvest levels, while expanding its timber inventory. In addition, it will allow the Company to maintain or increase the volume of logs supplied to its sawmills from its own timberlands, when
economically feasible.

The Company intends to continue to focus its acquisition program on timberlands that range from
fully-stocked to cutover tracts. Unlike other timber-producing areas of North America, most of the timberland in the southern U.S. is privately held, making it potentially available for acquisition. There can be no assurance that timber properties
suitable for acquisition will be identified by the Company, or that once identified, such properties will ultimately be acquired by the Company.

Deltic formed an acquisition team to implement its timberland acquisition program. Lands considered for purchase are evaluated based on the location, site index, timber stocking, and growth potential.
Approximately 145,000 acres of strategically located pine timberlands have been added since the inception of the program. Individual land purchases have ranged from three acres to 21,700 acres.

Land Sales. In 1999, the Company initiated a program to identify for possible sale non-strategic timberlands and higher and better
use lands. Approximately 38,700 acres of non-strategic timberlands have been sold since 1999.

Oil and Gas Revenues.
The Company receives oil and gas lease rental revenues when it agrees to grant certain mineral rights to third parties for terms that generally range from three to five years. Once production begins on leased mineral acres, it receives oil and gas
royalty income payments. Deltic recorded oil and gas lease rental revenues of $2,016,000, $2,028,000, and $1,966,000 in 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively on related leased acres of 37,200, 35,000, and 37,500, respectively. For the years ended 2010,
2009, and 2008, the Company earned $4,154,000, $2,296,000, and $1,686,000, respectively from oil and gas royalties.

Mills

The Companys two sawmills are located at Ola in central Arkansas and at Waldo in south Arkansas, near significant portions of the
timberlands. The mills employ modern technology in order to improve efficiency, reduce labor costs, maximize utilization of the timber resource, and maintain high quality standards of production with safety being one of the highest priorities. Logs
processed into lumber are obtained from the Companys timberlands and from public and private landowners. The Company selects logs for processing in its mills based on size, grade, and the prevailing market price. The Ola Mill is equipped for
maximum utilization of smaller diameter logs, while the Waldo Mill can process both smaller and larger diameter logs. The mills produce a variety of softwood lumber products, including dimension lumber, boards, and timbers. The lumber is sold
primarily to wholesale distributors, lumber treaters, large retailers, industrial accounts, and truss manufacturers in the South and Midwest and is used in residential construction, roof trusses, remanufactured products, and laminated beams.

The Companys lumber output increased to 265 MMBF in 2010 compared to 230 MMBF in 2009, as production was increased to
take advantage of the price increase caused by the temporary supply imbalance that occurred in the spring of 2010. Improving mill efficiencies and controlling manufacturing costs, along with optimizing production levels remains a primary focus
during the current down cycle of the lumber market.

Capital Projects. Deltic has invested significant capital in its
sawmills in recent years to increase production capacity and efficiency, decrease costs, improve safety, and expand the product mix. Major capital projects completed at the Ola Mill over the past several years include: (1) redesign and rebuild
of the sawmill primary breakdown processing equipment to improve the infeed of logs and overall flow of green lumber; (2) installation of a stick laying stacker to improve lumber drying quality and reduce labor cost; (3) gang control
upgrade to improve operating efficiencies; (4) safety improvements, including upgrades to the planer blow system; and (5) installation of a new log bucking deck to improve log recovery and increase throughput capacity.

##### Table of Contents

At the Waldo Mill, major capital projects completed over the past several years include: (1)
replacement of the planer that was destroyed by fire in August 2007; (2) addition of a boiler and an upgrade of the lumber drying kilns to increase the mills lumber drying capacity; (3) rebuild of lumber drying kilns to improve
quality and efficiency; (4) installation of a new planer hog system to move scrap material away from the planer mill more efficiently and to allow for increased throughput of finished lumber; and (5) various safety improvements, including
upgrades to the planer blow system.

Raw Materials. In 2010, the Companys two sawmills processed 1,132,073 tons
of logs, either harvested from its timberlands or purchased from government and private landowners. Practically all of the Woodlands segments harvest of pine sawtimber was transferred to the Mills and provided 55 percent of the Mills
total raw material requirements.

Various factors, including environmental and endangered species concerns, have limited, and
will likely continue to limit, the amount of timber offered for sale by U.S. government agencies. Because of this reduced availability of federal timber for harvesting, the Company believes that its supply of timber from the timberlands is a
significant competitive advantage. Deltic has historically supplied a significant portion of the timber processed in the sawmills from its timberlands.

In order to operate its sawmills economically, the Company relies on purchases of timber from third parties to supplement timber harvests from its own timberlands. The Company has an active timber
procurement function for each of its sawmills. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had under contract 177,601 tons of timber on land owned by other parties, including the U.S. Forest Service, which is expected to be harvested over the next
five years. During 2010, the Company harvested third-party stumpage and purchased logs from third parties totaling 522,778 tons. Of this volume, purchases from the U.S. Forest Service represented 15 percent. The balance of such purchased volume was
acquired from private lands.

Due to the closure or curtailment of several mills, which were in close proximity to the
Companys mills, there has been a higher availability of privately owned pine timber at lower stumpage prices due to the decreased demand. There is a substantial amount of other private timber acreage in proximity to each of Deltics
sawmills, therefore, the sources of private timber are many and diverse. The key factors in a landowners determination of whether to sell timber to the Company are price, the Companys relationships with logging contractors, and the
ability of the Company to demonstrate the quality of its logging practices to landowners. Typically, a landowner will be more likely to sell timber to a forest products company whose own land has been responsibly managed and harvested.

Residual Wood Products. The Company pursues waste minimization practices at both of its sawmills and seeks to sell all marketable
byproducts. Wood chips are usually sold to paper mills, wood shavings and chips are usually sold to Del-Tin Fiber, and bark is frequently sold for use as fuel. Bark, sawdust, shavings, and wood chips that cannot be sold are used as hog
fuel to fire the boilers that heat the drying kilns. The Company expects to continue to sell a significant portion of its Waldo Mills residual wood shavings and chip production to Del-Tin Fiber at market prices, which are renegotiated
annually.

Transportation. Each mill facility has the capability to ship its lumber by truck or rail.

Cyclical Market. While the cyclicality of the lumber market may occasionally require the interruption or reduction of operations
at one or both of the Companys sawmills, suspension of milling activities is unusual. Management is not currently anticipating any interruption of operations at either of Deltics sawmills, but no assurance can be given that market
conditions or other factors will not render such an action economically advisable in the future.

Real Estate

The Companys real estate operations were started in 1985 to add value to former timberland strategically located in the growth corridor of west Little Rock, Arkansas. Development activities began
with the construction of Chenal Ridge, the initial, 85-lot neighborhood in Chenal Valley on the western edge of the Little Rock city limits in 1985. Since that time, the Company has been developing the remainder of Chenal Valley, a premier upscale
planned community with approximately 4,800 acres of residential and commercial properties centered around two Robert Trent Jones, Jr. designed championship golf courses. The first golf course was completed in 1990. Construction of the second course
began in 2001, and was opened for play in the summer of 2003. The property has been developed in stages, and real estate sales to date have consisted primarily of residential lots sold to builders or individuals and commercial tracts sold to area
businesses. In addition to Chenal Valley, Deltic has developed Chenal Downs, a 400-acre equestrian development with controlled access, featuring secluded, five-acre lots, located just outside of Chenal Valley. Red Oak Ridge, Deltics first
development outside the Little Rock area, is an 800-acre upscale community being developed for residential, resort, or retirement living and is located in Hot Springs, Arkansas. All developed acreage in Chenal Valley has been annexed by the City of
Little Rock, while Chenal Downs is located just outside the Little Rock city limits. Red Oak Ridge has been similarly annexed by the City of Hot Springs.

Residential Development. Residential lots were first offered for sale in Chenal Valley during the second half of 1986 with closings beginning in 1987. As of December 31, 2010, 2,738 lots have
been developed in 34 neighborhoods, and 2,534 lots have been sold, with about 2,342 residences constructed or under construction. When fully developed, Chenal Valley could include approximately 4,600 single-family residences. However, the actual
number of residences in Chenal Valley will depend on final land usages and lot densities. The Company has developed lots in a wide variety of market segments. Lot size has ranged from 0.2 acres to 2.25 acres, and the lot sales price over the life of
the development has ranged from $25,000 per lot to over $335,000 per lot.

The first phase of Chenal Downs was opened in
December 1997, followed by a second phase in November 2000. By the end of 2010, 64 of the 76 developed lots were sold. Lot prices in Chenal Downs range from $89,000 to approximately $187,000. In Red Oak Ridge, the first two neighborhoods were
offered for sale in 1998, with a third neighborhood offered in late 2005. These neighborhoods offer a choice of either estate-sized homesites, many of which overlook one of two private lakes, or garden-home lots. As of the end of 2010, 89 of the 135
lots offered have been sold, and prices for lots currently offered range from about $30,000 to almost $183,000.

Commercial
Development. Commercial development in Chenal Valley began with the construction of a Company-owned, 50,000-square-foot office building, which was sold during 2000. Commercial activity to-date has consisted of the sale of approximately 364
acres, including 19 acres in 2010, and 18 acres in 2009, while there was no acreage sold in 2008. Commercial property sales to-date have consisted of retail store locations, an office building constructed by the Company on a nine-acre site,
multi-family residence sites, convenience store locations, a bank office building site, a site for a 38-acre open-air shopping center, a 37-acre site for lifestyle medical center, and outparcels surrounding a retail center constructed and owned by
the Company. Under current development plans, Chenal Valley will include approximately 825 acres of commercial property when fully developed.

In 2009 and 2010, a major healthcare provider in Arkansas closed on a 17.76-acre site and a 19-acre site, respectively. This two-part commercial real estate site acquisition from the Company is to be used
for a lifestyle medical center. Ground breaking for the medical center, located near The Promenade at Chenal, an upscale shopping center within Chenal Valley, occurred in January 2011 and is influencing interest in Deltics
commercial real estate near this area.

In 2006, the Company sold approximately 38 acres to RED Development LLC for the
development of The Promenade at Chenal, an upscale lifestyle shopping center. Construction of The Promenade at Chenal began in 2007 and was completed in May 2008. This project is expected to create more interest in the
Companys additional commercially-zoned property adjacent to the site.

The 1998 completion of construction of the initial section of Rahling Road, a major
connector street to Chenal Parkway, provided greater access to Chenal Valleys commercial acreage. Located at the center of this commercial property is a Company-owned 35,000-square-foot retail center. The retail center was completed in early
2000 and offers retail space for lease. The center is surrounded by 16 outparcels, ranging in size from 0.2 to 1.8 acres. To-date, 11 of these outparcels have been sold.

No commercial acreage is included in Chenal Downs and a small amount of commercial property is planned for Red Oak Ridge. The Company will begin to develop and offer commercial sites as population density
increases.

Infrastructure. Infrastructure and other improvements to support the development and sale of residential
and commercial property are funded directly by the Company and/or through real property improvement districts. Such properties are developed only when sufficient demand exists and substantially all infrastructure is completed. Future infrastructure
investments are primarily for the development and sale of additional property.

Development Amenities. In connection
with its Chenal Valley development, the Company developed Chenal Country Club, consisting of the earlier-described golf courses, a clubhouse, and related facilities for use by club members. Since its original construction, Deltic has undertaken
substantial remodeling and expansion of the clubhouse to fulfill membership needs. In addition, the Company has built three community parks within the Chenal Valley development for the benefit of the residents of the developed residential areas.

Chenal Downs has been developed around an equestrian center, consisting of stables and a training facility, and also includes
bridle trails throughout the development. Red Oak Ridges primary amenities currently consist of two lakes and a community park constructed by the Company.

Home Construction. Historically, the Companys focus with regards to residential real estate development has been on lot development only. However, Deltic has constructed a limited number of
speculative homes within its Red Oak Ridge development located in Hot Springs, Arkansas. At December 31, 2010, six homes were available for sale.

Future Development. A number of factors have added significant value to the undeveloped portion of Chenal Valley. Such factors include: (1) the overall success of Chenal Valley as a
residential development and its image as one of the premier developments in central Arkansas, (2) the continued westward growth of Little Rock, (3) the Companys investment in infrastructure in the area, and (4) the established
residential base which is now large enough to support commercial development. Management expects the undeveloped portion of Chenal Valley to provide growth and development opportunities in the future.

Chenal Downs has been fully developed, but development of Red Oak Ridge is in the early stages, currently consisting of two man-made
lakes as the core amenity, initial infrastructure placement, and the first three of several planned neighborhoods.

Continued
development in the Highway 10 growth corridor of west Little Rock has significantly affected land values in the area, and is expected to create real estate development opportunities for the Companys approximately 57,000 mostly contiguous acres
of timberland located two miles west of Chenal Valley.

Undeveloped Acreage. The success of Chenal Valley has increased

Del-Tin Fiber

Deltic owns 50 percent of the membership interest of Del-Tin Fiber, a joint venture to manufacture and market MDF. The Del-Tin Fiber plant is located near El Dorado, Arkansas. Construction of the plant
was completed, and initial production began, in 1998. The plant is designed to have an annual capacity of 150 million square feet (MMSF), on a 3/4-inch basis, of medium density fiberboard.

Initial operating and financial results at Del-Tin Fiber did not meet expectations established at the time that the decision was made to
construct the plant. The Companys evaluation of possible impairment of the carrying value of its investment in the joint venture resulted in the determination at December 31, 2002, that the investment was impaired, consequently, the
investment was written off to zero. During 2003, Deltic continued to fund its share of the facilities operating working capital needs; therefore, the Company recognized losses to the extent of cash advances made during the year.

During 2003, due to the combined efforts of Deltics management, Del-Tins management, and the joint-venture partner, operating
performance improved at the plant. Since 2004, the Company has recorded its equity share of the operating results of the joint venture.

Medium Density Fiberboard. MDF, which is used primarily in the furniture, laminate flooring, store fixture, and molding industries, is manufactured from sawmill residuals such as chips, shavings,
and sawdust, which are pressed and held together by an adhesive bond. Although the technology has existed for decades, continued improvements in the manufacture of MDF have increased both the quality and market acceptance of the product. MDF, with
its real wood appearance and the ability to be finely milled and to accept a variety of finishes, competes primarily with lumber. Effective January 1, 2011, all MDF panel producers in the United States must comply with a new regulation that
requires the finished product to contain much less formaldehyde compared to the amount that was previously allowed. Del-Tin Fiber met these new regulations by the end of 2010.

Production. The plant produced 128 MMSF in 2010, 99 MMSF of MDF in 2009, and 115 MMSF of MDF in 2008 of MDF. Production in 2010 was increased to meet demand, which increased due to an interruption
in imports from Chile in early 2010.

Raw Materials. The Del-Tin plant provides an additional outlet for wood chip
production from the Waldo Mill. The Company expects to continue to sell a significant portion of its Waldo Mills residual wood shavings and chip production to Del-Tin Fiber at market prices, which are renegotiated annually. In addition,
Del-Tin Fiber has an option to purchase residual wood chips from the Ola Mill. During 2010, 2009, and 2008, Deltic sold approximately $4,449,000, $4,457,000, and $4,593,000, respectively, of these lumber manufacturing by-products to Del-Tin Fiber.

Products and Competition

The Companys principal products are timber, timberland, softwood lumber products (primarily finished lumber), residual wood products, hunting land leases, oil and gas lease rentals and royalties,
and real estate.

Timber. Timber harvested from the timberlands is utilized by the Companys sawmills or sold to
third parties. The Companys timber sales to third parties accounted for approximately four percent of consolidated net sales in 2010 and 2009, and five percent in 2008.

The Company competes in the domestic timber market with numerous private industrial and non-industrial land and timber owners. Competitive factors with respect to the domestic timber market generally
include price, species and grade, proximity to wood manufacturing facilities, and accessibility.

Land Sales.
Timberland sold by the Company to third parties consists of both non-strategic timberland, including hardwood bottomland suitable for recreational use, and lands with potential for higher and better use, and amounted to five percent of consolidated
net sales in 2010, six percent in 2009, and seven percent in 2008.

Lumber Products. The Companys sawmills produce a wide variety of products,
including dimension lumber, boards, and timbers. Lumber is sold primarily to wholesaler distributors, lumber treaters, and truss manufacturers in the South and Midwest and is used in residential construction, roof trusses, and laminated beams.
During 2010, 2009, and 2008, lumber sales as a percentage of consolidated net sales were approximately 55 percent, 52 percent, and 54 percent, respectively.

The forest products market is highly competitive with respect to price and quality of products. In particular, competition in the commodity-grade lumber market in which the Company competes is primarily
based on price. Deltic competes with other publicly held forest products companies operating in the U.S., many of which have significantly greater financial resources than the Company, as well as privately held lumber producers. The Company also
competes with producers in Canada and overseas. In addition, Deltics management expects the Companys products to experience additional increased competition from engineered wood products and other substitute products. Due to the
geographic location of Deltics timberlands and its high-quality timber, in addition to the Companys active timber management program, strategically located and efficient sawmill operations, and highly motivated workforce, Deltic has been
able to compete effectively.

Residual Wood Products. The Companys sawmills produce wood chips, shavings,
sawdust, and bark as by-products of the conversion process. During 2010, 2009, and 2008, sales of these residual products accounted for 11 percent, 13 percent, and 13 percent, respectively, of Deltics consolidated net sales. Wood chips are the
primary source of residual sales and are typically sold to Del-Tin Fiber or to paper mills. In 2010, Deltics sawmills produced 352,348 tons of wood chips. The Company expects to continue to sell a significant portion of its wood chip
production to Del-Tin Fiber for use in the production of MDF.

Hunting Land Leases.Deltic leases hunting rights for
its Woodlands to individuals and groups with its main competitors being other landowners. Per-acre price and location are the primary factors in leasing woodland hunting rights. Hunting lease revenues accounted for one percent of consolidated net
sales in 2010, two percent for 2009, and one percent for 2008.

Oil and Gas. The Company has approximately 37,000 net
mineral acres of Company owned land either currently under lease or held by production. Once production begins, oil and gas royalty payments are received. Oil and gas lease rental payments are recognized as income over the term of the lease and oil
and gas royalty payments are recognized as income in the month earned. Oil and gas lease rental income accounted for one percent, two percent, and two percent of consolidated net sales in 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively. Oil and gas royalty
revenue accounted for three percent, two percent, and one percent of consolidated net sales in 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively. Oil and gas royalty income is dependent upon the number of producing wells, volume extracted, and market prices, none
of which the Company has any control over.

Real Estate. The Company develops and markets residential lots and
commercial sites. Other landowners or developers are Deltics competitors in its real estate markets. Deltic generally provides the supporting infrastructure. Residential lots are sold to homebuilders and individuals, while commercial sites are
sold to developers and businesses. The Company also sells undeveloped acreage. The Companys competition is seeking the same customer base with each competitor marketing the benefits of its site locations with related infrastructure or
amenities. During 2010, 2009, and 2008, the sales of residential lots, commercial sites, and undeveloped acreage as a percentage of consolidated net sales were six percent, four percent, and two percent, respectively. The sale of commercial property
can have a significant impact on the Companys sales, but is unpredictable and sporadic.

Seasonality

The Companys operating segments are subject to variances in financial results due to several seasonal factors. Increased housing
starts and home remodeling projects during the spring usually push up lumber prices. Forestry operations generally incur silvicultural treatment expenses in the third quarter because they are applied during the fall season in order to achieve
maximum effectiveness.

Business Segment Data

Information concerning net sales, operating income, and identifiable assets attributable to each of the Companys business segments is set forth in Item 7, Managements Discussion and
Analysis; and Note 22 to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of Part II of this report.

Environmental Matters

The Company is subject to extensive and changing
federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations relating to the protection of human health and the environment, including laws relating to air and water quality, greenhouse gas emissions, the use of herbicides on timberlands, regulation
of wetlands, and the protection of endangered species. Environmental legislation and regulations, and the interpretation and enforcement thereof, are expected to become increasingly stringent. The Company has made, and will continue to
make, expenditures to comply with such requirements in the ordinary course of its operations. Historically, these expenditures have not been material, and the Company expects that this will continue to be the case. Liability under certain
environmental regulations may be imposed without regard to fault or the legality of the original actions, and may be joint and several with other responsible parties. As a result, in addition to ongoing compliance costs, the Company may be subject
to liability for activities undertaken on its properties prior to its ownership or operation and by third parties, including tenants. The Company is not involved with any such sites at this time. The Company leases the rights to drill for oil and
gas on some of its lands to third parties. Pursuant to these leases, the lessee indemnifies the Company from environmental liability relating to the lessees operations. Based on its present knowledge, including the fact the Company is not
currently aware of any facts that indicate the Company will be required to incur any material costs relating to environmental matters, and currently applicable laws and regulations, the Company believes environmental matters are not likely to have a
material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

The federal
Endangered Species Act protects species threatened with possible extinction and restricts timber harvesting activities on private and federal lands. Certain of the Companys timberlands are subject to such restrictions due to the
presence on the lands of the red-cockaded woodpecker, a species protected under the Act. There can be no assurance that the presence of this species or the discovery of other protected species will not subject the Company to future harvesting
restrictions. However, based on the Companys knowledge of its timberlands, the Company does not believe that its ability to harvest its timberlands will be materially adversely effected by the protection of endangered species.

Congress is currently considering certain climate control legislation. Due to uncertainties with any proposed legislation, it is
difficult to make an assessment of the impact of such legislation upon the Companys operations until such time as such legislation has been passed, codified, and the appropriate regulation promulgated. The Company will continue to monitor the
legislative process and any possible future legislation or regulatory actions and its effects upon its operations.

Access to SEC Filings

The Company maintains an internet website at www.deltic.com. The Company makes available free of charge under the Investor
Relations section of its website its annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to any of those reports and other filings, as soon as reasonably practicable after providing such
reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Employees

As of January 31, 2011, the Company had 454 employees.

|Item 1A. | Risk Factors
|-------- | ------------

Cyclicality of Forest Products Industry

The Companys results of operations are, and will continue to be, affected by the cyclical nature of the forest products industry. Prices and demand for logs and manufactured wood products have been,
and in the future can be expected to be, subject to cyclical fluctuations. The demand for logs and lumber is primarily affected by the level of new residential construction activity. This activity is subject to fluctuations due to changes in
economic conditions, availability and cost of financing for developers, mortgage interest rates, new and existing housing inventory levels, foreclosure rates, population growth, weather conditions and other factors. Decreases in the level of
residential construction activity usually will be reflected in reduced demand for logs and lumber resulting in lower prices for the Companys products and lower revenues, profits, and cash flows. In addition to housing starts, demand for wood
products is also significantly affected by repair and remodeling activities and industrial uses, demand for which has historically been less cyclical. Furthermore, changes in industry supply of timber affect prices. Although the Company believes
sales of timber by United States government agencies will remain at relatively low levels for the foreseeable future, any reversal of policy that substantially increase such sales could significantly reduce prices for logs and lumber, which could
have a material adverse effect on the Company. Furthermore, increased imports from foreign countries could reduce the prices the Company receives for its products. Meanwhile, possible reductions of Canadian imports due to mountain pine beetle
infestation could increase prices the Company receives for its products.

Limitations on the Companys Ability to
Harvest Timber

Revenues from the Companys future operations will depend to a significant extent on its ability to
harvest timber pursuant to its harvest plans from its 445,800 acres of timberlands (the Timberlands). Harvesting of the Timberlands may be affected by various natural factors, including damage by fire, insect infestation, disease,
prolonged drought, severe weather conditions, including ice storms, higher than normal amounts of rainfall, and other causes. The effects of these natural factors may be particularly damaging to young timber. To the extent possible, the Company
implements measures to limit the risk of damage from such natural causes. The Company is a participant with state agencies and other timberland owners in cooperative fire fighting and fire surveillance programs. In addition, the Timberlands
extensive system of access roads, firelines, and the physical separation of various tracts provide some protection against fire damage. Nonetheless, one or more major fires on the Timberlands could adversely affect Deltics operating results.
The Timberlands may also be affected by insect infestation, particularly by the southern pine beetle, and by disease. Additionally, the Timberlands may be affected by severe weather conditions, especially ice storms, tornados, and heavy winds.
Although damage from such natural causes usually are localized and affects only a limited percentage of the timber, there can be no assurance that any damage affecting the Timberlands will, in fact, be so limited. As is typical in the forest
products industry, the Company does not maintain insurance coverage with respect to damage to the Timberlands. The Company does, however, maintain insurance for loss of logs due to fire and other occurrences following their receipt at the
Companys sawmills.

Operation of Sawmills

The Companys sawmills are located at Ola in central Arkansas and Waldo in southern Arkansas. The operations of the sawmills are
dependent on various factors and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue such operations at current levels of production or that suspension of such operations may not be required in the future. One such factor is the
ability of the Company to procure sufficient logs at suitable prices. The Company obtains logs for its sawmills from the Timberlands, other private sources, and federal lands. As discussed above, prices for logs are cyclical and affected primarily
by demand for lumber and other products produced from logs. Another such factor is the ability of the Company to find an outlet for the large volume of residual wood products that result from the milling process. The company currently markets such
products to third parties for the production of paper and other uses. In addition, the Company sells a significant portion of its residual wood chips to Del-Tin Fiber LLC (Del-Tin), a joint venture medium density fiberboard plant near El
Dorado, Arkansas, in which the Company owns a 50-percent interest. The continued operation of the sawmills is subject generally to the risk of business interruption in the event of a fire or other natural disaster, regulatory actions, or other
causes. Deltic mitigates this risk through the procurement of casualty and business interruption insurance.

Del-Tin Fiber

Deltic owns 50 percent of the membership interest of Del-Tin Fiber, a joint venture to manufacture and market MDF. The Del-Tin Fiber plant
is located near El Dorado, Arkansas. Construction of the plant was completed, and initial production began, in 1998. From inception, through the year 2003, the operating and financial performance of the joint venture failed to meet expectations, but
since 2004 the operating performance and MDF market have seen significant improvements. Demand for MDF is subject to many of the same factors as other wood products such as housing starts, furniture production, residential improvements, import
fluctuations, and industry capacity. The industry is also facing higher costs resulting from compliance with California Air Resources Board (CARB) regulations. Additionally, Del-Tin operations are subject to risk of business
interruptions due to fire or other natural disasters, regulatory actions, or other causes. Del-Tin procures casualty and business interruption insurance to mitigate this risk. A decline in prices or demand for MDF or disruptions in the manufacturing
operations at the Del-Tin Fiber plant could impact the Companys results of operations and cash flows in future periods, as well as Deltics ability to exit the MDF business if desired in the future.

Competition

The forest products industry is highly competitive in terms of price and quality. The products of the Company are subject to increasing competition from a variety of non-wood and engineered wood products.
In addition, the Company is subject to a potential increase in competition from lumber products and logs imported from foreign sources. Any significant increase in competitive pressures from substitute products or other domestic or foreign suppliers
could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Federal and State Environmental Regulations

The Company is subject to extensive and changing federal, state, and local environmental laws and regulations relating to the protection
of human health and the environment, the provisions and enforcement of which are expected to become more stringent in the future. The Company has made and will continue to make non-material expenditures to comply with such provisions. Based on
currently available information the Company believes environmental regulation will not materially adversely affect the Company, but there can be no assurances that environmental regulation will not have a material adverse effect on the financial
condition, results of operations, or liquidity of the Company in the future. Climate control legislation being considered by Congress or potentially more restrictive guidelines issued by governmental regulatory agencies are examples of changes that
if approved could increase compliance costs as well as direct manufacturing expenses.

Geographic Concentration and Risk
Associated with Real Estate Development

The Companys real estate development projects are located in central
Arkansas, specifically, in and west of, Little Rock, Arkansas, and in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Accordingly, the Companys real estate operations are particularly vulnerable to any economic downturns or other adverse events that may occur in this
region and to competition from nearby residential housing developments. The Companys results of operations may be affected by the cyclicality of the homebuilding and real estate industries generally. Factors include changes in general and
local economic conditions, such as employment levels, consumer confidence and income, housing demand, new and existing housing inventory levels, availability and cost of financing, mortgage interest rates and foreclosures, and changes in government
regulation regarding the environment, zoning, real estate taxes, and other local government fees. In addition, the tightening of credit and the economic recession could delay or deter commercial real estate activity and may affect the Companys
operating results.

##### Table of Contents

General Economic Conditions

A continued stagnation of the housing industry could impact operating results for the Company. Additionally, a deterioration of the global
credit markets and continued weakness of the general economy could adversely affect the Companys access to capital. Similarly, Deltics customers and suppliers ability to obtain financing could adversely affect the Companys
business if their ability to operate or fund transactions is impaired.

Reliance on Key Personnel

The Company believes that its continued success will depend in large part on its ability to attract and retain highly skilled and
qualified personnel. The Company offers management incentives in a manner that are directly linked to the Companys performance, which the Company believes will facilitate the attraction, retention, and motivation of highly skilled and
qualified personnel. In this regard, the Company has taken steps to retain its key personnel, including the provision of competitive employee benefit programs. Although the Company will seek to employ qualified individuals in the event that officers
or other key employees of the Company cease to be associated with the Company, there can be no assurance that such individuals could be engaged by the Company.

Dividend Policy

The Company currently intends to pay modest
quarterly cash dividends. However, the Company anticipates that future earnings will, for the most part, be used to support operations and finance growth of the business. The payment of any dividends will be at the discretion of the Companys
Board of Directors (the Company Board). The declaration of dividends and the amount thereof will depend on a number of factors, including the Companys financial condition, capital requirements, funds from operations, future
business prospects, and such other factors as the Company Board may deem relevant, and no assurance can be given as to the timing or amount of any dividend payments.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Statutory, Charter, Bylaw and Contractual Provisions

Several provisions of the Companys Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws and of the Delaware General Corporation Law could discourage potential acquisition proposals and could deter or delay
unsolicited changes in control of the Company, including provisions creating a classified Board of Directors, limiting the stockholders powers to remove directors, and prohibiting the taking of action by written consent in lieu of a
stockholders meeting. The preferred stock purchase rights attached to the Companys common stock could have similar anti-takeover effects. In addition, the Companys Board has the authority, without further action by the
stockholders, to fix the rights and preferences of and to issue preferred stock. The issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of the owners of the Companys common stock, including the loss of voting control to
others. Transactions subject to these restrictions will include, among other things, the liquidation of the Company, the merger, consolidation or other combination or affiliation of the Company with another company, discontinuance of or material
change in the conduct of a material portion of its businesses independently and with its own employees, redemption or other reacquisition of Companys common stock, and the sale, distribution, or other disposition of assets of the Company out
of the ordinary course of business.

These provisions and others that could be adopted in the future could discourage
unsolicited acquisition proposals or delay or prevent changes in control or management of the Company, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then current market prices. In addition,
these provisions could limit the ability of stockholders to approve transactions that they may deem to be in their best interests.

Introduction

Deltic Timber Corporation (Deltic or the
Company) is a natural resources company engaged primarily in the growing and harvesting of timber and the manufacture and marketing of lumber. Deltic owns approximately 445,800 acres of timberland, mainly in Arkansas and north Louisiana.
The Companys sawmill operations are located at Ola in central Arkansas (the Ola Mill) and at Waldo in south Arkansas (the Waldo Mill). In addition to its timber and lumber operations, the Company is engaged in real
estate development in central Arkansas. The Company also holds a 50 percent interest in Del-Tin Fiber LLC (Del-Tin Fiber), a joint venture to manufacture and market medium density fiberboard (MDF). Deltic is a calendar-year
company for both financial and income tax reporting.

The Company is organized into four segments: (1) Woodlands, which
manages all aspects of the timberlands including harvesting and sale of timber, timberland sales and acquisitions, oil and gas mineral revenues, and hunting land leases; (2) Mills, which consists of Deltics two sawmills that manufacture a
variety of softwood lumber products; (3) Real Estate, which includes the Companys real estate developments and a related country club operation; and (4) Corporate, which consists of executive management, accounting, information
systems, human resources, purchasing, treasury, income tax, and legal staff functions that provide support services to the operating business units. The Company currently does not allocate the cost of maintaining these support functions to its
operating units.

The Companys timberlands consist primarily of Southern Pine, known in the industry as a type of
softwood. Deltic considers its timberlands to be the Companys most valuable asset and the harvest of stumpage to be its most significant and consistent source of income. Deltics goal in managing its timber assets is to
increase productivity and maximize the long-term value. Deltic follows Sustainable Forest Initiative (SFI) Standards in managing its timberlands. Some of the attributes of the SFI program philosophy include healthy, productive forests
yield immense environmental, social, and economic benefits. The Company harvests timber from the timberlands in accordance with its harvest plans and sells such timber in the domestic market or converts it to lumber in its sawmills. The
Woodlands stumpage that is supplied to the Companys sawmills is transferred at prices that approximate market in its operating regions. Deltic derives additional revenues from its timberlands in the form of hunting leases, mineral lease
rentals, mineral royalties, and land easements. In late 1996, the Company implemented a timberland acquisition program to enable it, when desired, to increase harvest levels, while expanding its timber inventory. As a part of this program the
Company sells tracts of non-strategic timberland when market conditions allow and replaces them with acres located in its current operating area that will provide a growing platform for Southern Pine sawtimber.

The Companys two sawmills employ modern technology in order to improve efficiency, reduce labor costs, maximize utilization of the
timber resource, and maintain high standards for production quality, while keeping safety as one of its highest priorities. In addition, each mill is strategically located near significant portions of the Companys timberlands, which provide a
stable source of raw material stumpage. The mills produce a variety of lumber products, including dimension lumber, timbers, and boards. These lumber products are sold primarily to wholesale distributors, large retailers, industrial accounts, lumber
treaters, and truss manufacturers in the southern and mid-western United States and are used mainly in residential construction, roof trusses, remanufactured products, and laminated beams.

The Companys real estate operations were started in 1985 to maximize the value of higher and better use timberland strategically
located in the growth corridor of west Little Rock, Arkansas. Since that time, the Company has been developing Chenal Valley, a premier planned community consisting of 4,800 acres of residential and commercial properties. The property is being
developed in stages, and real estate sales to date have consisted primarily of residential lots, which are sold to builders or individuals, and commercial sites. In addition to Chenal Valley, Deltic has developed Chenal Downs, a 400-acre development
located just outside Chenal Valley, and is developing Red Oak Ridge, an 800-acre development in Hot Springs, Arkansas.

Deltics joint venture plant operation, Del-Tin Fiber, is located near El Dorado,
Arkansas and is designed to have a rated annual production capacity of 150 million square feet (MMSF) of medium density fiberboard on a 3/4 inch basis. MDF, which is used primarily in the furniture, store fixture, laminate flooring,
and molding industries, is manufactured from sawmill residuals such as chips, shavings, and sawdust, which are pressed and held together by an adhesive bond.

Executive Overview

Deltic is primarily a wood products producer
operating in a commodity-based business environment, with a major diversification in real estate development. The wood products business is affected by a number of factors, including general economic conditions, employment levels, interest rates,
credit availability and associated costs, imports, foreign exchange rates, housing starts, new and existing home inventories, residential and commercial real estate foreclosures, residential repair and remodeling, commercial construction, industry
capacity and production levels, the availability of raw materials, cost of fuel, and weather conditions. Given its relative size and the nature of most commodity markets, the Company has little or no influence over the markets pricing levels
for its wood products. Accordingly, Deltics management focuses on increasing productivity and reducing controllable costs and expenses in its manufacturing processes. Sales of real estate are affected by many of the same factors affecting the
housing industry such as general economic conditions, consumer and builder confidences, interest rates, real estate foreclosures, new and existing home inventories, and the availability and cost of credit as such factors are manifested in the
Companys operating area of central Arkansas.

Significant accomplishments for the Companys operating segments
during the year of 2010 include: (1) the Woodlands segment sold approximately 4,100 acres of non-strategic timberland; (2) the Woodlands segment leased approximately 14,000 net mineral acres in south Arkansas and north Louisiana for $4.3
million, which will be recognized as revenue over the approximate lease terms of three to four years; (3) the Mills segment reported operating profit for the year, primarily due to improved pricing and higher sales volumes caused by a temporary
supply/demand imbalance; (4) the Real Estate segment completed a 19-acre commercial real estate sale at a sales price of $334,000 per acre; and (5) Del-Tin Fiber had improved operating results related to increased MDF production to replace
imports from Chile after an earthquake interrupted the supply of moldings it normally exports to the U.S.

The Woodlands
segment is the Companys core operating segment. It reported an operating income increase of $1 million, or four percent, over the 2009 results, primarily due to increased revenues from pine sawtimber and pulpwood harvested, hardwood sawtimber
harvested, and oil and gas royalties. These positive factors were partially offset by a decreased margin on timberland sales, increased road maintenance cost, and increased cost of fee timber harvested. When compared to 2009, the 2010 pine sawtimber
harvest volume increased 31,000 tons, or five percent, to 610,000 tons, but the average sales price declined seven percent to $27 per ton. The 2010 pine pulpwood harvest volume was 344,000 tons, an 11 percent increase from 2009, at the same average
per-ton sales price of $11. The hardwood sawtimber volume increased from 2009 by 6,000 tons, 31 percent, to 26,000 tons, and the average sales price increased 16 percent to $36 per ton.

While lumber production levels within a region can influence pine sawtimber prices, lumber prices themselves typically do not. Over the
long-term, there is a fundamental correlation between lumber prices and pine sawtimber prices. However, in the short-term, the geographical size differential between the lumber and pine sawtimber markets results in the two acting somewhat
independently of each other. Pine sawtimber markets operate within local areas, with sales being mainly to sawmills. These mills are subject to a relatively fixed level of raw material requirements that is driven by the facilities required
production levels. Changes in pricing levels within the lumber market typically do not have an immediate effect on the existing demand for raw materials in the short-term; therefore, the resulting impact on pine sawtimber prices will usually lag in
timing and will be less volatile than the market for lumber. This trend would also be true in the short-term during times of a depressed lumber market. Ultimately, the Companys ability to sell pine sawtimber at acceptable prices in the future
will be dependent upon the size or existence of markets for manufactured lumber and other wood products. The Company continues to manage the harvest level of its forests on a sustainable-yield basis.

Timberland designated as higher and better use consists of tracts with market values that
exceed the lands worth as a pine timber growing platform. Deltics approximately 57,000-acre timberland holdings in the expanding westward growth corridor of Little Rock, Arkansas, is an example of such land. Non-strategic timberland is
composed of hardwood bottomland acreage unsuitable for the growing of pine timber, tracts too small to allow efficient timber management, tracts geographically isolated from other Company fee lands, or any other acreage not deemed strategic to
Deltics operations or growth. Approximately 4,100 acres of non-strategic timberland, primarily hardwood bottomland, were sold during 2010. When possible, the Company utilizes tax deferring, like-kind exchanges to minimize tax consequences of
timberland sales. In 2010, Deltic reinvested hardwood bottomland sale proceeds into approximately 1,300 acres of pine producing timberland.

In addition to pine and hardwood timber sales, the Company receives other benefits of land ownership such as revenues from hunting leases, mineral lease rentals, mineral royalties, and land easements that
provide income to the Woodlands segment. The segment reported hunting lease income of $2 million in 2010 and $1.9 million in 2009. Total mineral revenues, consisting of mineral lease rentals and net oil and gas royalties, were $5.7 million in 2010,
compared to $4.1 million in 2009. The majority of this revenue currently comes from an area known as the Fayetteville Shale Play, an unconventional natural gas reservoir being developed in the state of Arkansas. The Company has under lease or held
by production approximately 29,100 net mineral acres in the Fayetteville Shale Play. During 2010, the Company received net royalty payments of $3 million from the Fayetteville Shale Play, compared to $1.6 million in 2009. The increase was due to
additional wells in production compared to a year ago. The total of all net oil and gas royalty income inclusive of the Fayetteville Shale Play, was $3.7 million in 2010 and $2.1 million in 2009. The total income from mineral lease rentals was $2
million in 2010 and 2009. In the fourth quarter of 2010, Deltic leased approximately 14,000 net mineral acres in the south Arkansas/north Louisiana area for $4.3 million. This revenue will be recognized over the term of the lease rental agreements,
which typically span three to four years. The ultimate benefit to Deltic from mineral leases remains speculative and unknown to the Company and is contingent on the successful completion of producing wells on Company lands and the prices received
for crude oil and natural gas.

The Mills segment benefitted from a higher average per-unit sales price, increased sales
volumes, and lower per-unit production costs to generate operating profits of $7.3 million for 2010, a $13.1 million improvement over 2009. Sales realizations improved in the first half of the year due to a temporary weather-related supply/demand
imbalance, but slumped in the second half of 2010 as supply levels increased. Current forecasts for the housing industry remain weak, and Deltic will continue to monitor product demand and adjust production levels to balance with market demand. As
with any commodity market, the Company expects the historical volatility of lumber prices to continue in the future, and management will respond with timely decisions to take advantage of the market supply and demand situations. Since
commodity-based markets rarely benefit from real price growth, after inflation, Deltic focuses on improving production efficiencies and the cost structure at its lumber mills as evidenced by year-over-year per-unit cost reduction in its
manufacturing operations.

As economic conditions improved and interest rates remained low, the number of residential lots
sold in 2010 doubled the number sold in 2009, to 28 lots sold. This includes the sale of eight lots in a new small-lot neighborhood the Company opened in 2010. Buyers responded well to the offering of this new development, and all 20 lots were put
under contract prior to construction. Deltics lot development plans are designed to provide for the availability of lots in many different price ranges to fulfill the planned-community program. The average sales price for residential lots sold
in 2010 was $81,000, an increase of 11 percent when compared to 2009, due to the current-year sales mix. At December 31, 2010, developed but uncommitted residential lots in Chenal Valley, Chenal Downs, and Red Oak Ridge were 192, 12, and 54,
respectively. The Company continues to focus on the long-term financial returns from the total build-out of the Chenal Valley and Red Oak Ridge developments and deems the recent negative trends to reflect anticipated fluctuations, which will have a
minimal impact on the overall real estate business model.

In 2010, a major health care provider in Arkansas closed on a 19-acre site in the second phase of a two-part
commercial real estate acquisition from the Company to be used for a lifestyle medical center. Ground breaking for the medical center, located near The Promenade at Chenal, an upscale shopping center within Chenal Valley, occurred in
January 2011 and is influencing interest in Deltics commercial real estate adjacent to this area. Future pricing trends for commercial real estate sales are difficult to predict and are influenced by multiple factors, which include intended
use of the site, property location, and acres available. There is no commercial acreage included in the Chenal Downs development. Red Oak Ridge, the Companys Hot Springs area development, will include a small amount of commercial property to
be determined by the final actual land usages. The Company will begin to develop and offer commercial sites as this developments population density increases.

Deltic real estate activities primarily involve residential lots and commercial acreage; however, the
Company has constructed a small number of speculative homes in the Red Oak Ridge development to serve as a catalyst for increasing lots sales activity. This activity has been reviewed for potential triggers for impairment testing, as appropriate.
However, management is of the opinion that no such triggering event has occurred.

speculative home activity is as follows:

Operating results for Del-Tin Fiber are affected by the overall MDF market and the plants operating
performance. When compared to 2009, equity in earnings of Del-Tin Fiber increased $1.9 million to $4.1 million in 2010. The improvement is due primarily to an increase in sales volume, which increased 29.1 MMSF over 2009 sales volume. The increased
sales volume was primarily due to an earthquake in Chile on February 27, 2010, that created supply interruptions to the U.S. and afforded Del-Tin Fiber the opportunity to meet demand as building suppliers turned to the U.S. market to fill
inventory needs. Effective January 1, 2011, all MDF panel producers in the United States must comply with a new regulation that requires the finished product to contain much less formaldehyde compared to the amount that was previously allowed.
Del-Tin Fiber met these new regulations by the end of 2010.

Consolidated

Net income for 2010 was $8.7 million more than 2009 due to improved operating income from all three operating segments and
to increased equity in earnings of Del-Tin Fiber, partially offset by increased Corporate general and administrative expenses.

Net income for 2009 was $3.7 million, a decrease of $.7 million when compared to 2008. The decline in net income was caused by decreased
operating income in the Woodlands and Mills segments, which were partially offset by improved operating results for the Real Estate segment and decreased interest expense.

##### Table of Contents

Operating income for 2010 increased $12 million when compared to 2009. The Woodlands segment
increased $1 million due primarily to higher harvest volumes and increased net revenues from oil and gas royalties, partially offset by a decreased margin on timberland sold and increased cost of fee timber harvested. The Mills segments
operating income increased $13.1 million due to a higher average sales price per MBF of lumber sold, increased sales volume, and a lower per-unit cost of lumber sold. The Real Estate segment results improved $2.0 million primarily due to the sale of
19 acres of commercial property at a 48 percent higher average sales price per acre than the 18 acres sold in 2009. The $3.4 million increase in Corporate expense is mainly due to higher general and administrative expense, primarily professional
fees and employee incentive expense. Del-Tin Fiber improved $1.9 million mainly due to an increased sales volume.

Operating
income for 2009 decreased $1.6 million, or 21 percent, when compared to 2008. The Woodlands segment decreased $4.4 million due primarily to a lower per-ton sales price for pine sawtimber, a lower harvest volume and average per-ton sales price for
pine pulpwood, and fewer acres of non-strategic timberland sold. Operating results for the Mills segment decreased $1 million due mainly to a lower average sales price per unit of lumber sold. Real estate operating income increased $2.1 million due
to the sale of approximately 18 acres of commercial property in 2009. Corporate operating expense decreased by $.5 million due to lower general and administrative expense.

##### Table of Contents

Total net sales in 2009 decreased $5.9 million, or 13 percent, when compared to 2008. Sales
of pine sawtimber decreased $2.5 million due to a lower average sale price. Pine pulpwood sales decreased $2.5 million due to lower harvest volume and a lower average sales price per ton. Timberland sales decreased $2 million due primarily to fewer
acres sold. Partially offsetting the decreases were a $.3 million increase in hardwood sawtimber revenues, a $.4 million increase in oil and gas royalty income, and a $.2 million increase in lease income.

Operating income for the Woodlands segment for 2010 increased $1 million, or four percent, due to the items causing the increase in
net sales, offset by an increase in the cost of fee timber harvested and increases in road maintenance expense on Company fee timberlands. The Woodlands segments operating income for 2009 was $4.4 million lower than 2008 due to the decrease in
net sales, partially offset by a lower cost of timberland sold due to fewer acres sold, lower cost of fee timber harvested, and reduced silviculture expense.

Net sales in 2010
increased $23.7 million, or 31 percent, when compared to 2009. The increase was due to a 17 percent higher lumber sales volume combined with a $40, or 16 percent, higher sales price per MBF of lumber sold. The increased sales volume was due to
increased operating hours to meet market demand and to improved operating efficiencies.

Total sales in 2009 decreased $15.7
million, or 17 percent, when compared to 2008. The decrease was due to lower sales volumes as Deltic reduced operating hours to meet lower market demands, compounded by a lower average lumber sales price.

The increase in the Mills segment operating income for 2010 was due to the same factors affecting sales revenues combined with lower
per-unit production costs due to increased production. The Mills segments operating loss for 2009 was $1 million more than 2008 due to the lower average lumber sales price per MBF, which was partially offset by lower production and log costs.

Total net sales for
2010 increased $2.9 million, or 22 percent, compared to 2009 due to an increase in the average per-acre sales price received on commercial acreage sold, and to a 100 percent increase in the number of residential lots sold, combined with a higher
average sales price per residential lot sold.

Total net sales for 2009 increased $1.7 million, or 15 percent, compared to
2008 due to an increase in the commercial acres sold, partially offset by fewer sales of residential lots at a lower average sales price per lot.

The changes in the Real Estate segments operating income were due primarily to the same factors impacting net sales.

Corporate

The increase of $3.4 million in operating expense for Corporate
functions in 2010 was due to higher general and administrative expenses, primarily employee incentive plan expenses, resulting from the improved financial results for the year, and increased professional fees.

The $.5 million decrease in operating expense for Corporate functions in 2009 compared to 2008 was primarily due to lower professional
fees.

Eliminations

Intersegment sales of timber from Deltics Woodlands segment to the Mills segment were $17.3 million in 2010, $16.9 million in 2009, and $19.3 million in 2008. The $.4 million increase during 2010
was due primarily to an increase in volume, partially offset by a slightly lower average transfer price. The $2.4 million decrease during 2009 was due primarily to a lower average transfer price. Intersegment transfer prices approximate market
prices.

Additional selected financial and statistical data for Del-Tin Fiber is shown in the following
table.



|                                |  |      |       |  |      |  |       |      |  |  |       |

|Net sales (millions of dollars) |  | $    | 71.7  |  |      |  | 54.6  |      |  |  | 66.5  | 
|Finished production (MMSF)      |  |      | 128.0 |  |      |  | 99.1  |      |  |  | 115.4 | 
|Board sales (MMSF)              |  |      | 130.0 |  |      |  | 100.9 |      |  |  | 113.0 | 
|Sales price (per MSF)           |  | $    | 501   |  |      |  | 500   |      |  |  | 538   | 

Sales volume for 2010
increased 29 percent from 2009 with only a slight change in the average per-unit sales price. The increased sales volume was mainly due to an interruption of molding imports from Chile during the first half of the year, which was caused by an
earthquake on February 27, 2010.

Average prices for 2009 decreased from 2008 due to a decrease in sales of thin board,
partially offset by lower raw material costs.

Interest Income/Expense

Interest expense for 2010 decreased $.1 million compared to 2009 due to lower average outstanding debt. Interest expense for 2009
decreased $1.6 million compared to 2008 due to lower interest rates.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate was 34 percent, 23 percent, and 18 percent in 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively. The increase in the
effective income tax rate for 2010 versus 2009 was due primarily to the expiration in 2009 of reduced tax rates on timber capital gains. The increase from 2008 to 2009 was due to no discrete tax benefit items in 2009.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows and Capital Expenditures

Net cash provided by operating
activities totaled $28.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, which compares to $16.9 million for 2009, and $10.9 million for 2008. Changes in operating working capital other than cash and cash equivalents provided cash of $2.3 million
in 2010 and $1.6 million in 2009, while requiring cash of $2.7 million in 2008. The Companys accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and Note 17 of the Consolidated Financial Statements identify other differences between income and
cash provided by operating activities for each reported year.

2010, compared to .422 to 1 at the end of 2009.

Liquidity

The primary sources of the Companys liquidity are internally generated funds, access to outside financing, and working capital. The
Companys current strategy for growth continues to emphasize its timberland acquisition program, expanding lumber production as market conditions allow, and developing residential and/or commercial properties at Chenal Valley and Red Oak Ridge.

To facilitate these growth plans, the Company has an agreement with a group of banks which provides an unsecured and
committed revolving credit facility. As of December 31, 2010, this facility totaled $300 million, inclusive of a $50 million letter of credit feature, with $275.5 million available. The agreement was scheduled to expire on September 9,
2012, but Deltic amended and extended this credit facility during the first quarter of 2011. The amended facility totals $297.5 million and will mature September 9, 2015. The credit agreement contains restrictive covenants, including
limitations on the incurrence of debt and requirements to maintain certain financial ratios. (For additional information about the Companys current financing arrangements, refer to Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements.)

|1 | The leverage ratio is calculated as total debt divided by total capital. Total debt includes indebtedness for borrowed money, secured liabilities,
obligations in respect of letters of credit, and guarantees. Total capital is the sum of total debt and net worth. Net worth is calculated as total assets minus total liabilities, as reflected on the balance sheet. This covenant is applied at the
end of each quarter.

|2 | The fixed charge coverage ratio is calculated as EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, and amortization) increased by
non-cash compensation expense and other non-cash expenses, and decreased by dividends paid and income tax paid, divided by the sum of interest expense and scheduled principal payments made on debt during the period. This covenant is applied at the
end of the quarter on a rolling four quarter basis.

|3 | The fixed charge coverage ratio was eliminated in the amended credit facility for periods after February 4, 2011.
|- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|4 | Timber market value must be greater than 175% of total debt (as defined in (1) above.) The timber market value is calculated by multiplying the
average price received for sales of timber for the preceding four quarters by current quarters ending inventory of timber. This covenant is applied at the end of the quarter on a rolling four quarter basis.
|- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Based on managements current operating projections, the Company believes it will remain in compliance with the debt covenants and
have sufficient liquidity to finance operations and pay all obligations.

In December 2000, the Companys Board of
Directors authorized a stock repurchase program of up to $10 million of Deltic common stock. In December 2007, the Companys Board of Directors expanded the program by $25 million. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had expended $14.6
million under this program, with the purchase of 370,530 shares at an average cost of $39.28 per share; 35,571 shares were purchased in 2009, 129,996 shares were purchased in 2008, 101,914 shares were purchased under this program in 2007, and seven
shares in 2006. There were no shares purchased in 2010. In its two previous repurchase programs, Deltic purchased 479,601 shares at an average cost of $20.89 and 419,542 shares at a $24.68 per share average cost, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Contractual Obligations, and Commitments

On August 26, 2004, Del-Tin Fiber, through an agreement with multiple lending institutions, refinanced its existing long-term debt by
entering into a credit agreement consisting of a letter of credit in the amount of $29.7 million to support the remaining industrial revenue bonds originally issued in 1998 by Union County, Arkansas. Concurrent with this event, on August 26,
2004, Deltic executed a guarantee agreement in connection with this refinancing. Under Deltics guarantee agreement, Deltic unconditionally guarantees the due and punctual payment of 50 percent ($14.5 million at December 31, 2010) of
Del-Tin Fibers obligations under its credit agreement. Deltic considers the status of the payment/performance risk of this guarantee to be low based on the length of time remaining on the bond issue.

The Company has both funded and unfunded noncontributory defined benefit retirement plans that cover the majority of its employees. The
plans provide defined benefits based on years of service and final average salary. Deltic also has other postretirement benefit plans covering substantially all of its employees. The health care plan is contributory with participants
contributions adjusted as needed; the life insurance plan is noncontributory. With regards to all of the Companys employee and retiree benefit plans, Deltic is unaware of any trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will
result in or that are reasonably likely to result in the Companys liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way, or which would cause the 2010 reported plan information not to be necessarily indicative of future operating performance
or future financial condition. (For information about material assumptions underlying the accounting for these plans and other components of the plans, refer to Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements.)

As of December 31, 2010, the Company is not involved in any unconsolidated special purpose entity transactions.

Tabular summaries of the Companys contractual cash payment obligations and other commercial commitment expirations, by period, are
presented in the following tables.

Outlook

Deltics management believes that cash provided from its operations, the remaining amount available under its credit facility, and its ability to access the credit markets, will be sufficient to meet
its expected cash needs and planned expenditures, including those of the Companys continued timberland acquisition and stock repurchase programs, and capital expenditures, for the foreseeable future.

The preceding discussion of the Companys liquidity and capital resources contains forward-looking statements which were
made in reliance upon the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements reflect the Companys current expectations and involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially
from those included in such forward-looking statements.

Other Matters

Impact of Inflation General inflation has not had a significant effect on the Companys operating results during the
three years ended December 31, 2010. The Companys timber operations are more significantly impacted by the forces of supply and demand in the southern United States than by changes in inflation. Lumber manufacturing operations are
affected by the supply of lumber available in the North American market and by the demand for lumber by both the North American and foreign export markets. Sales of real estate are affected by changes in the general economy, new and existing housing
inventories, lending restrictions, and long-term interest rates, specifically as such may manifest themselves in the central Arkansas region.

Market Risk Market risk represents the potential loss resulting from adverse changes in the value of financial instruments, either derivative or non-derivative, caused by fluctuations in
interest rates, foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, and equity security prices. The Company handles market risks in accordance with its established policies; however, Deltic does not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for
trading or speculative purposes. The Company does consider, on occasion, the need to enter into financial instruments to manage and reduce the impact of changes in interest rates; however, the Company entered into no such instruments during the
three-year period ended December 31, 2010. Deltic held various financial instruments at December 31, 2010 and 2009, consisting of financial assets and liabilities reported in the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheets and off-balance
sheet exposures resulting from contractual debt guarantees and letters of credit issued for the benefit of Deltic, primarily in connection with its purchased stumpage procurement and real estate operations. (For additional information regarding
these financial instruments, refer to the previous tabular summary of the Companys other commercial commitment expirations and to Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements.)

Interest Rate Risk - The Company is subject to interest rate risk from the utilization of financial instruments, such as term debt
and other borrowings. The fair market value of long-term, fixed-interest rate debt is subject to interest rate risk. Generally, the fair value of fixed-interest rate debt will increase as interest rates fall and will decrease as interest rates rise.
Conversely, for floating rate debt, interest rate changes generally do not affect the instruments fair value, but do impact future earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant. The estimated fair values of the
Companys long-term debt, including current maturities, and letters of credit at December 31, 2010 were $70 million, and $.7 million, respectively.

A one percentage-point increase in prevailing interest rates would result in decreases in the estimated fair value of long-term debt by $2 million, while the fair value of contractual guarantees and the
Companys letters of credit would be unchanged. Fair values were determined using the current rates at which the Company could enter into comparable financial instruments with similar remaining maturities.

##### Table of Contents

Foreign-Exchange Rate Risk - The Company currently has no exposure to
foreign-exchange rate risk because all of its financial instruments are denominated in U.S. dollars.

Commodity Price
Risk - The Company has no financial instruments subject to commodity price risk.

Equity Security Price Risk - None
of the Companys financial instruments have potential exposure to equity security price risk.

The preceding discussion
of the Companys estimated fair value of its financial instruments and the sensitivity analyses resulting from hypothetical changes in interest rates are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements reflect the Companys current expectations and involve uncertainties. These forward-looking market risk disclosures are selective in nature and only address the potential impact from financial
instruments. They do not include other potential effects which could impact Deltics business as a result of changes in interest rates, foreign-exchange rates, commodity prices, or equity security prices.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company has identified seven of its current accounting policies as being, in managements view, critical to the portrayal of the Companys financial condition and results of operations.
Additionally, six of these policies require significant assumptions and/or estimates on the part of management as it pertains to certain factors inherent in the policies. The Companys senior management has discussed the development and
selection of its critical accounting policies and estimates with the Companys Audit Committee. Deltic has not made any material changes to its critical accounting estimates in the last three years. These policies, along with explanations of
the key assumptions and/or estimates considered by management, are described below. (For a listing of all significant accounting policies of the Company, refer to Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements.)



| | 1) | Investment in Real Estate Held for Development and Sale  Real estate held for development and sale is stated at the lower of cost or fair market value, and
includes direct costs of land, land development, and indirect costs, including amenities. Indirect and amenity costs are allocated to individual lots or acreage sold based on relative sales value. Direct costs are allocated on a specific
neighborhood basis, while indirect costs for the Companys three development areas  Chenal Valley, Chenal Downs, and Red Oak Ridge  are allocated to neighborhoods over the entire respective development area based on relative retail
values. Management makes the determination of future indirect development costs and the potential future retail value and in so doing considers, among other factors, the cost projections for its development plans provided by independent professional
engineering consultants and retail values as provided by independent appraisers.
| | -- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The key factors involved in
determining the Investment in Real Estate Held for Development and Sale are: (1) the treatment of the clubhouse and golf courses at Chenal Country Club, the amenity around which the Chenal Valley development is centered, as an amenity rather
than an operating fixed asset and (2) the management estimates required to estimate the future indirect development costs and sales values of the areas of Chenal Valley yet to be developed. Due to accounting for Chenal Country Club as an
amenity, the cost of the clubhouse and golf course, including the estimated cost of planned future improvements, are charged against income as real estate is sold rather than depreciating this cost. This amenity treatment also records the initiation
fees received from members joining the club as a reduction in the cost basis of the club rather than as net sales. In addition, the Companys model for allocating the indirect cost to be expensed against each piece of real estate sold requires
management to estimate the future indirect costs to be incurred for the entire

development, primarily infrastructure costs and future improvements at Chenal Country Club (net of estimated future initiation fees to be received), as well as the potential market value of each
tract of undeveloped property within the Chenal Valley development.

Deltics investment in real estate held for
development and sale primarily consists of residential lots, commercial tracts, and undeveloped acreage marketed to others for further development. Deltic periodically evaluates its holdings for indications of conditions that would lead to an
impairment analysis as required by accounting for subsequent measurement of property, plant, and equipment. Our investment in real estate is mainly comprised of former legacy timberland and thus has a low cost basis. Margins on Deltics
residential real estate average 43%, while commercial real estate margins are 83%. The central Arkansas area, where Deltics developments are located has one of the more stable housing markets in the country; therefore, Deltic has not and does
not plan to reduce the current pricing structure for its real estate. Based on these factors, the Company does not foresee impairment losses in its real estate held for development or sale.



| | 2) | Investment in Del-Tin Fiber  Investment in Del-Tin Fiber LLC (Del-Tin Fiber), a 50 percent-owned limited liability company, is accounted for
under the equity method. The Companys carrying value for its investment in Del-Tin Fiber is evaluated for possible impairment, as applicable under the requirements of equity method accounting for investments in partnerships, unincorporated
joint ventures, and limited liability companies. This evaluation as of December 31, 2002, based on the intent of the Companys Board of Directors to exit the business, resulted in a determination that the Companys investment was
impaired as of December 31, 2002, and the carrying amount of the investment was written off, to zero, for the 2002 Consolidated Balance Sheet. On December 11, 2003, the Companys Board of Directors revised its intent in regard to
selling Deltics interest in the joint venture. The resulting evaluation of fair value for the related investment indicated that fair value exceeded carrying value, which was zero as of December 31, 2003, and the Company resumed recording
its equity share of the operating results of Del-Tin Fiber. Likewise, cash advances to the joint venture are recorded as increases in the Companys investment in the facility, while cash distributions received from the joint venture are
reflected as reductions in its investment.
| | -- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For Deltics investment in Del-Tin Fiber, the key determinations
by management are (1) the accounting treatment for this investment under the equity method of accounting rather than as a consolidated subsidiary since the joint venture is 50 percent owned by both owners, (2) the factors used in
evaluating the impairment of the investments carrying value, and (3) the estimate of the fair value of the Companys guarantee of Del-Tin Fibers credit agreement. Deltic management has determined that there is no control by
either company due to having a Board of Managers with equal representation. As such, the assets and liabilities of Del-Tin Fiber are not included in the amounts reported on the Companys balance sheet for any period. (For additional information
about the Companys investment in Del-Tin Fiber, refer to Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements.)



| | 3) | Timber and Timberlands  Timber and timberlands, which includes timberland, fee timber, purchased stumpage inventory and logging
facilities, are stated at cost less cost of fee timber harvested and accumulated depreciation of logging facilities and includes no estimated future reforestation cost. The cost of timber consists of fee timber acquired and reforestation costs,
which includes site preparation, seedlings, and labor. The cost of fee timber harvested is based on the volume of timber harvested in relation to the estimated volume of timber recoverable. Logging facilities, which consist primarily of roads
constructed and other land improvements, are depreciated using the straight-line method over a ten-year estimated life.

##### Table of Contents

The Company estimates its fee timber inventory using statistical information and data obtained from physical measurements and other information gathering techniques. Fee timber carrying costs,
commercial thinning, silviculture and timberland management costs are expensed as incurred.

The Company classifies its
timberlands and fee timber as either strategic or non-strategic. Strategic timberland including pine forest and pine plantations are prime pine sawtimber growing platforms located within or immediately adjacent to the Company sawmills
operating regions. Deltic manages these acres using modern silviculture methods to achieve optimal volume and quality of its pine sawtimber. The Company harvests sawtimber and pulpwood in accordance with its harvest plans and generally converts
sawtimber into lumber in its own sawmills and sells pulpwood in the market. Upon harvest, strategic timberlands are reforested. The Companys timberland acquisition program is focused on the acquisition of timberland in its current operating
regions. The Company considers the acquisition and the occasional sale of strategic timberlands as investing activities. The Company has legacy hardwood and other acreage which either cannot be harvested for conversion in Company sawmills,
reforested as pine plantations, managed efficiently using modern silviculture methods due to the size of the tract or proximity to other Deltic fee timberlands, or all three. These legacy timberlands have been identified as non-strategic and or
higher and better use timberlands and are expected to be sold over time. The Woodlands segment manages an annual program to sell a portion of these non-strategic timberlands and or harvest hardwoods for the sale to third parties. The Company
considers this program as an operating activity of its Woodlands segment.

In order to acquire and sell assets, primarily
timberlands, in a tax efficient manner, the Company enters into like-kind exchange (LKE) tax-deferred transactions. The Company generally enters into forward transactions, in which property is sold and the proceeds are reinvested by
acquiring similar property; and reverse transactions, in which property is acquired and similar property is subsequently sold. A qualified LKE intermediary is used to facilitate LKE transactions. Proceeds from forward LKE transactions are held by
the intermediary and are classified as restricted cash because the funds must be reinvested in similar properties. If the acquisition of suitable LKE properties is not completed within 180 days of the sale of the company-owned property, the proceeds
are distributed to Deltic by the intermediary and are reclassified as available cash and applicable income taxes are determined. Amounts deposited with a third party towards the potential future purchase of property are included in other investments
and non-current receivables in the consolidated balance sheets and as an investing activity shown as funds held by trustee in the consolidated statements of cash flow. At December 31, 2010, there were no funds held by the LKE trustee while at
December 31, 2009, $4.1 million of land sale proceeds were deposited with a LKE intermediary. An exchange accommodation titleholder, a type of variable interest entity, is used to facilitate reverse like-kind exchanges. The acquired assets are
held by the exchange accommodation titleholder until the exchange transactions are complete. If the Company determines that it is the primary beneficiary of the exchange accommodation titleholder, Deltic includes the assets held by the exchange
accommodation titleholder in timber and timberlands assets on the consolidated balance sheet and recognizes any income or expense attributed to the property in the consolidated income statement.

The key components of the Timber and Timberlands policy are: (1) managements decision to maintain separate timber cost pools
for each legal entity within the Deltic consolidated group and (2) the required estimation of timber inventory volume, by species, for each of these companies in order to calculate the cost of fee timber harvested per ton. Management has
elected to maintain a separate cost pool for the timber owned by each company, thus resulting in a different cost per ton for fee timber harvested for each. The mix of harvest by company for any period can significantly affect the amount of cost of
fee timber harvested expense reported. Per-ton costs for 2010 ranged from $2.19 to $32.75 per ton for pine sawtimber. Had the Company opted to use a composite depletion rate, cost of pine

sawtimber harvested would have been $.3 million less in 2010, $.3 million more in 2009, and $.3 million less in 2008, ($.2 million, $.2 million, and $.2 million, respectively, net of applicable
income taxes) than as reported due to the mix of harvest by company during the year. In determining these rates, management must estimate the volume of timber existing on its timberlands. To estimate these fee timber inventories, the Company relies
on its experienced forestry personnel and their use of statistical information and data obtained by actual physical measurements and other information gathering techniques. The recognized cost of fee timber harvested is impacted by the accuracy of
this volume estimation. (For additional information about the Companys timber and timberlands, refer to Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements.)

Assets used in the Woodlands segment shall be tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. The recoverability test is
based on undiscounted future cash flows over the expected life of the asset. Impairment recognition and measurement would occur at the lowest level for which we have identifiable cash flows. At December 31, 2010, the composite basis in fee
timber is $7 per ton assuming no future growth. Gross margin on pine sawtimber for 2010, when the average sales price was $27 per ton, was 78%. A harvest cycle, (which ranges between 20 and 35 years) would be used to evaluate the recoverability of
our timber and timberlands. Due to the long life and low basis, the Company does not expect to incur impairment loss in the future for its timber and timberland assets.



| | 4) | Property, Plant, and Equipment  Property, plant, and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of buildings, equipment, and
other depreciable assets is primarily determined using the straight-line method. Expenditures that substantially improve and/or increase the useful life of facilities or equipment are capitalized. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as
incurred. Gains and losses on disposals or retirements are included in income as they occur.
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Property, plant,
and equipment assets are evaluated for possible impairment on a specific asset basis or in groups of similar assets, as applicable, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future net cash flows to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future
cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell,
and depreciation ceases.

Management also evaluates any asset or group of assets for which potential impairment might exist and
has determined that there are none requiring an impairment write-down. This process requires managements estimate of future cash flows generated by each asset or group of assets. For any instance where this evaluation process might indicate
impairment exists, the appropriate assets carrying values would be written down to fair value and the amount of the write-down would be charged against the results of continuing operations. (For additional information about the Companys
property, plant, and equipment, refer to Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements.)



| | 5) | Share-Based Compensation  The Company uses fair value recognition provisions for share-based payment transactions. Under the fair value recognition
provisions, share-based compensation cost is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period of the award. For the valuation of stock options, Deltic uses a binomial
model to estimate fair value. The fair value of restricted stock awards is determined by reference to the fair market value of the Companys common stock on the date of grant. For restricted stock performance units, the Monte Carlo simulation
is used to estimate fair value. The Company recognizes compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.

Deltic issues restricted stock performance units whose vesting is contingent upon meeting
certain financial performance goals based upon the Companys total stockholder return compared to the total return of a Paper and Forest Products Index (the Index) selected by the Compensation Committee and calculated by Standard
and Poors. Determining the appropriate amount to expense is based on likelihood of achievement of the stated goals and requires judgement, including forecasting future financial results. This estimate may be revised periodically due to changes
in awards. The cumulative impact of any revision is reflected in the period of change.

The Company uses historical volatility
over the ten-year trading life of its stock to determine volatility assumptions. Risk-free interest rates are based on historical rates and forward-looking factors. The expected dividend yield is based on the Companys average dividend yield
from 2006 to 2009. The pre-vesting forfeiture rate is based on historical rates and forward-looking factors. The expected option term is based on the term of the option and historical exercise, and expiration experience.

Assumptions for the 2010, 2009, and 2008 valuation of stock options and restricted stock performance units consisted of the following:

| | 6) | Revenue Recognition  The Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an agreement exists,
(2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (3) the price to the buyer is fixed and determinable, and (4) collectibility is reasonably assured. Delivery is not considered to have occurred until the customer takes title
and assumes the risks and rewards of ownership. Revenue from the sale of lumber and wood by-products is recorded at the time of shipment due to terms of such sale being designated free on board (f.o.b.) shipping point. Revenue from the
sale of timber-cutting rights to third parties is recorded when legal title passes to the purchaser, which is generally upon delivery of a legally executed timber deed and receipt of payment for the timber. Revenue from intersegment timber sales is
recorded when the timber is harvested. Such intersegment sales, which are made at prices which generally approximate market, are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. Revenue from timberland and real estate sales is recorded at the
time the purchaser executes the real estate closing documents and makes payment to the title company handling the closing. When oil and gas lease rental agreements are signed and the amounts are received, they are recorded as either short-term or
long-term deferred revenue and the revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The Companys share of gross oil and gas royalties are recorded as revenues when received and any related severance tax or other
deductions are included in operating expenses.

| | 7) | Income Taxes  The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, the provision for income taxes includes
amounts currently payable and amounts deferred as tax assets and liabilities, based on differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities, and is measured using the enacted tax rates that
are expected to be in effect when the differences reverse. Deferred tax assets may be reduced by a valuation allowance when it is established that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax law is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The key management decisions related to income taxes are: (1) the determination of current taxability of transactions, (2) the election to capitalize or expense costs incurred, (3) the
decision regarding the appropriate depreciation method for income tax purposes (these three factors ultimately affect the Companys cash flows for income taxes paid and determine the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts
and tax bases of existing assets and liabilities), and (4) managements estimation of the appropriateness of valuation allowances to reduce any deferred tax assets that exist. Deltics management periodically evaluates the
Companys ability to realize future benefit of deferred tax assets by reviewing the expected turnaround of deferred tax liabilities and the amount of future taxable income and by evaluating tax planning strategies that could possibly be
implemented to realize deferred tax assets.

The Company maintains liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits for various
uncertain tax positions taken in its tax return. These liabilities are estimated based on judgment of the probable outcome of the uncertain tax positions and are adjusted periodically based on changing facts and circumstances. Changes to the
liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits could materially affect operating results in the period of change.

Related-Party
Transactions

The Company has committed to provide to Del-Tin Fiber a portion of the plants fiber and wood supply at
market prices. This arrangement benefits Del-Tin Fiber by ensuring a portion of its raw material needs while providing the Company with a purchaser of residual by-products produced by its lumber mills, if needed. The price that Deltic receives for
these transactions is a negotiated market price. During 2010, 2009, and 2008, Deltic sold Del-Tin Fiber approximately $4.4 million, $4.5 million, and $4.6 million each year, respectively, of these residual by-products.

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

(For information regarding the impact of recent accounting pronouncements, refer to the related section in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements.)

Environmental Matters

Deltic is committed to protecting the environment and has certain standards with which it must comply based on federal, state, and local laws for the protection of the environment. Costs of compliance
through 2010 have not been material, and the Companys management currently has no reason to believe that such costs will become material for the foreseeable future.

Contingencies

The Company is involved in litigation incidental to its business from time to time. Currently, there are no material legal proceedings
outstanding.

Outlook

Pine sawtimber harvested from Deltics fee lands in 2011 is projected to be 550,000 to 600,000 tons. Finished lumber production and resulting sales volumes are projected at 240 to 280 million
feet for 2011; however, these volumes are dependent upon market conditions. Deltic anticipates that closings for residential lots will be 25 to 50 lots for the year of 2011, barring further declines in economic growth or residential construction
activity. The Company plans to continue recognizing its share of equity in the financial results of Del-Tin Fiber.

The
Companys capital expenditures budget for the year of 2011 was prepared in the fall of 2010 and provides for expenditures totaling $25.3 million. The Woodlands capital budget of $11.2 million includes $5.0 million for timberland acquisitions,
which will be dependent on the availability of acreage at prices that meet the Companys criteria for timber stocking, growth potential, site index, and location. The capital budget includes $5 million for reforestation, site preparation, and
planting. During 2011, various sawmill projects are expected to require $5.9 million. The capital budget for Real Estate operations of $7.6 million includes expenditures for residential lot development of $3.2 million and for commercial real estate
development of $1.2 million, and will depend upon the current demand for residential lots and commercial acreage. In addition, the Real Estate segment is budgeted to spend $2.2 million for various infrastructure and improvement district assessments,
and $1 million on other amenity improvements. Capital and other expenditures are under constant review, and these budgeted amounts may be adjusted to reflect changes in the Companys estimated cash flows from operations, borrowings, or
repayments under credit facilities, or general economic conditions.

DELTIC TIMBER CORPORATION

AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2010

Note 1  Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business  Deltic Timber Corporation (Deltic or the Company) is a
natural resources company engaged primarily in the growing and harvesting of timber and the manufacture and marketing of lumber. Deltic owns approximately 445,800 acres of timberland, primarily in Arkansas and north Louisiana. The Companys
sawmill operations are located at Ola in central Arkansas and at Waldo in south Arkansas. In addition to its timber and lumber operations, the Company is engaged in real estate development in central Arkansas. The Company also holds a 50 percent
interest in Del-Tin Fiber, L.L.C., a joint venture to manufacture and market medium density fiberboard (MDF).

Business Environment The Company is primarily a wood products producer operating in a commodity-based business environment with a major diversification in real estate development. This
environment is affected by a number of factors including general economic conditions, interest rates, credit availability, imports, foreign exchange rates, housing starts, new and existing housing inventory, foreclosures, residential repair and
remodeling, commercial construction, industry capacity and production levels, the availability of contractors for logging, hauling, and shipping, the availability of raw materials, costs of fuel, and weather conditions.

Principles of Consolidation  The consolidated financial statements of Deltic Timber Corporation include the
accounts of Deltic, all majority-owned subsidiaries, and any variable interest entities of which it is the primary beneficiary. Equity investments and joint ventures are accounted for under the equity method if it is determined that the Company does
not have control of the entity. Significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates  In the preparation of the Companys financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management has made a number of estimates and assumptions related to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual
results may differ from those estimates.

Cash Equivalents  Cash equivalents include investments
that have a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase.

Accounts Receivable and allowance
for bad debt  The Company records trade accounts receivable at net realizable value. This value includes an appropriate allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts to reflect any loss anticipated on the trade accounts receivable
balances and charged to the provision for doubtful accounts. The allowance is based upon review of specific receivables outstanding and considers factors such as current overall economic conditions, industry-specific economic conditions, historical
customer performance, and anticipated customer performance. In the consolidated statements of income, bad debt expense is included in cost of sales. Charges to bad debt expense were not material in 2010, 2009, or 2008. At December 31, 2010 and
2009, the balance in the allowance account was $72,000 and $68,000, respectively.

Inventories 
Inventories of logs, lumber, and supplies are stated at the lower of cost or market within Deltics operating areas, primarily using the average cost method. Log costs include harvest and transportation cost as appropriate. Lumber costs include
materials, labor, and production overhead. (For additional information, see Note 2  Inventories.)

Investment in Real Estate Held for Development and Sale  Real estate held for development and sale is
stated at the lower of cost or fair market value, and includes direct costs of land and land development and indirect costs, including amenities. Indirect and amenity costs are allocated to individual lots or acreage sold based on relative retail
sales value. Direct costs are allocated

on a specific neighborhood basis, while indirect costs for the Companys three development areas  Chenal Valley, Chenal Downs, and Red Oak Ridge  are allocated to neighborhoods
over the entire respective development area based on relative retail sales values.

Investment in Del-Tin
Fiber Investment in Del-Tin Fiber LLC (Del-Tin Fiber), a 50 percent-owned limited liability company, is accounted for using the equity method and evaluated for possible impairment, as applicable under the requirements of
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 323, Investments  Equity Method and Joint Ventures. Management has determined there is no control by either 50 percent owner and
therefore, account for Del-Tin fiber under the equity method. Cash advances to the joint venture are recorded as increases in the Companys investment carrying value, while cash repayments received from the joint venture result in reductions in
investment carrying value. (For additional information, see Note 4  Investment in Del-Tin Fiber.)

Timber and Timberlands  Timber and timberlands, which includes timberland, fee timber, purchased stumpage
inventory, and logging facilities, are stated at cost, less the cost of fee timber harvested and accumulated depreciation of logging facilities, and includes no estimated future reforestation cost. The cost of timber consists of fee timber acquired
and reforestation costs which includes site preparation, seedlings, and labor. The cost of fee timber harvested is based on the volume of timber harvested in relation to the estimated volume of timber recoverable. Logging facilities, which consist
primarily of roads constructed and other land improvements, are depreciated using the straight-line method over a ten-year estimated life. The Company estimates its fee timber inventory using statistical information and data obtained from physical
measurements and other information gathering techniques. Fee timber carrying costs, commercial thinning, silviculture and timberland management costs are expensed as incurred.

The Company classifies its timberlands and fee timber as either strategic or non-strategic. Strategic timberland including pine forest and pine plantations are prime pine sawtimber growing platforms
located within or immediately adjacent to the Company sawmills operating regions. Deltic manages these acres using modern silviculture methods to achieve optimal volume and quality of its pine sawtimber. The Company harvests sawtimber and
pulpwood in accordance with its harvest plans and generally converts sawtimber into lumber in its own sawmills and sells pulpwood in the market. Upon harvest, strategic timberlands are reforested. The Companys timberland acquisition program is
focused on the acquisition of timberland in its current operating regions. The Company considers the acquisition and the occasional sale of strategic timberlands as investing activities. The Company has legacy hardwood and other acreage which can
not be either harvested for conversion in Company sawmills, reforested as pine plantations, managed efficiently using modern silviculture methods due to the size of the tract or proximity to other Deltic fee timberlands, or all three. These legacy
timberlands have been identified as non-strategic and or higher and better use timberlands and are expected to be sold over time. The Woodlands segment manages an annual program to sell a portion of these non-strategic timberlands and or harvest
hardwoods for the sale to third parties. The Company considers this program as an operating activity of its Woodlands segment.

In order to acquire and sell assets, primarily timberlands, in a tax efficient manner, the Company enters into like-kind exchange
(LKE) tax-deferred transactions. The Company generally enters into forward transactions, in which property is sold and the proceeds are reinvested by acquiring similar property; and reverse transactions, in which property is acquired and
similar property is subsequently sold. A qualified LKE intermediary is used to facilitate LKE transactions. Proceeds from forward LKE transactions are held by the intermediary and are classified as restricted cash because the funds must be
reinvested in similar properties. If the acquisition of suitable LKE properties is not completed within 180 days of the sale of the company-owned property, the proceeds are distributed to Deltic by

the intermediary and are reclassified as available cash and applicable income taxes are determined. Amounts deposited with a third party towards the potential future purchase of property are
included in other investments and non-current receivables in the consolidated balance sheets and as an investing activity as changes in funds held by trustee in the consolidated statements of cash flows. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the
Company had none and $4.1 million, respectively, of proceeds from land sales deposited with a LKE intermediary. An exchange accommodation titleholder, a type of variable interest entity, is used to facilitate reverse like-kind exchanges. The
acquired assets are held by the exchange accommodation titleholder until the exchange transactions are complete. If the Company determines that it is the primary beneficiary of the exchange accommodation titleholder, Deltic includes the assets held
by the exchange accommodation titleholder in timber and timberlands assets on the consolidated balance sheet and recognizes any income or expense attributed to the property in the consolidated income statement.

Property, Plant, and Equipment  Property, plant, and equipment assets are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation of buildings, equipment, and other depreciable assets is primarily determined using the straight-line method. Expenditures that substantially improve and/or increase the useful life of facilities or equipment are
capitalized. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Gains and losses on disposals or retirements are recognized in the period they occur.

Property, plant, and equipment assets are evaluated for possible impairment on a specific asset basis or in groups of similar assets, as applicable, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future net cash flows to be generated by the asset. If
the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the
lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and depreciation ceases.

Revenue
Recognition  The Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (3) the price to the buyer is fixed and
determinable, and (4) collectibility is reasonably assured. Delivery is not considered to have occurred until the customer takes title and assumes the risks and rewards of ownership. Revenue from the sale of lumber and wood by-products is
recorded at the time of shipment due to terms of such sale being designated free on board (f.o.b.) shipping point. Revenue from the sale of timber-cutting rights to third parties is recorded when legal title passes to the purchaser,
which is generally upon delivery of a legally executed timber deed and receipt of payment for the timber. Revenue from intersegment timber sales is recorded when the timber is harvested; such intersegment sales, which are made at prices which
generally approximate market within Deltics operating area, are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

Revenue from the leasing of land for hunting purposes is deferred when received and subsequently recognized over the one-year lease term,
which begins September 1. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had deferred hunting lease revenue totaling $1,419,000 and $1,341,000, respectively, reflected in the consolidated balance sheets in deferred revenues and other accrued
liabilities. Revenue from mineral lease rental payments is deferred when received and recognized ratably over the lease term. Mineral royalty payments are recognized when received. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had deferred mineral
lease revenue of $6,026,000 and $3,314,000, respectively, of which $3,765,000 and $1,494,000 is included in other noncurrent liabilities for 2010 and 2009, respectively and $2,261,000 and $1,820,000 is included in other current liabilities,
respectively. Revenue from sales of timberland and real estate is recorded when the sale is closed and legal title is transferred and the buyers initial and continuing investment is adequate, which is generally at the time the purchaser
executes the real estate closing documents and makes payment to the title company handling the closing.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2010



Note 1  Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)



Income Taxes  The Company uses the asset and liability
method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, the provision for income taxes includes amounts currently payable and amounts deferred as tax assets and liabilities, based on differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and
the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities, and is measured using the enacted tax rates that are expected to be in effect when the differences reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance which is established when it is
more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax law is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The
Company continuously reviews state and federal tax returns for uncertain tax provisions. Tax benefits are recorded if it is more-likely-than-not that the positions will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities and liabilities are
recorded if it is deemed less likely that the position taken would prevail. These liabilities are adjusted in the period in which it is determined that the issue is settled with the relevant taxing authority, the expiration of statute of limitation
for a tax year in question, a change in tax laws, or other facts become known.

Property Taxes 
Property taxes applicable to the Companys assets are estimated and accrued in the period of assessment. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had accrued property tax expense totaling $1,775,000 and $1,649,000, respectively,
reflected in the consolidated balance sheets in accrued taxes other than income taxes.

Share-Based
Compensation  The Company applies a fair value-based measurement method in accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees, recognizing the cost as the services are performed. (For additional information, see Note 16 
Incentive Plans.)

Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits  The Company sponsors both a
qualified and a nonqualified, noncontributory, defined benefit retirement plan that cover substantially all employees. Benefits are based on years of service and final career-average-pay formulas as defined by the plans. The qualified plan is funded
to accumulate sufficient assets to provide for accrued benefits. The nonqualified plan, a supplemental executive plan, is not funded; payments to retirees due under this plan are made on a monthly basis.

The Company also sponsors a defined benefit health care plan and a life insurance benefit plan for substantially all retired employees.
The Company measures the costs of its obligations for these plans based on its health care cost trends and actuarial assumptions, including discount rates, mortality, assumed rates of return, compensation increases, and turnover rates. The Company
reviews its assumptions on an annual basis and makes modifications to the assumptions based on current rates and trends when it is appropriate to do so. The effect of modifications to those assumptions is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive
income/(loss) and amortized to net periodic cost over future periods using the corridor method. The Company believes that the assumptions utilized in recording its obligations under its plans are reasonable based on its experience and market
conditions.

Net periodic costs are recognized as employees render the services necessary to earn these post retirement
benefits. In 2008, the date for measuring plan assets and obligations was changed from September 30 to December 31. The net periodic benefit cost for the period of October 1, 2007, through December 31, 2008, was based on a
measurement date of September 30, 2007. The net periodic benefit cost for the period of October 1, 2007 through December 31, 2007, was reflected as

an adjustment to retained earnings on December 31, 2008. The impact of this adjustment was a $267,000 reduction to retained earnings, net of taxes and a $15,000 reduction to accumulated
other comprehensive loss, net of tax. (For additional information, see Note 15  Employee and Retiree Benefit Plans.)

Advertising Costs  Advertising costs, primarily related to marketing efforts for the Companys real estate developments, are expensed as incurred. These costs amounted to $982,000 in
2010, $987,000 in 2009, and $1,198,000 in 2008, and are reflected in the consolidated statements of income.

Capitalized Interest  The Company capitalizes interest for qualifying assets during construction by
applying the Companys capitalization rate to the average amount of accumulated expenditures for the asset during the period. Interest is most often capitalized as an indirect cost for real estate development in the Companys real estate
operations. (For additional information, see Note 17  Supplemental Cash Flows Disclosures.)

Capital
Expenditures  Capital expenditures include additions to investment in real estate held for development and sale; timber and timberlands; and property, plant, and equipment.

Net Change in Purchased Stumpage Inventory  Purchased stumpage inventory consists of timber-cutting rights
purchased from third parties specifically for use in the Companys sawmills. Depending on the timing of acquisition and usage of this acquired stumpage inventory, the net change in this inventory can either be a source or use of cash in the
Companys consolidated statements of cash flows.

Earnings per Common Share  Basic earnings
per share is computed using the two-class method and is based on earnings available to common shareholders less accrued preferred dividends, if any and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The diluted earnings per share amounts
are computed based on earnings available to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, including shares assumed to be issued under the Companys stock incentive plans using the treasury-stock method,
unless anti-dilutive. (For a reconciliation of amounts used in per share computations, see Note 18  Earnings per Share.)

Shipping and Handling Costs  Shipping and handling costs, such as freight to our customers destinations, are included in cost of sales in the Companys consolidated statements of
income. These costs, when included in the amount invoiced to customers, are also recognized in net sales.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements  The Company evaluates its transactions to determine if any variable
interest entities exist. If it is determined that Deltic is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, that entity is consolidated into Deltics financial statements.

Out-of-period adjustment  In the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of
$420,000, due to the recognition of out-of-period tax adjustments arising from periods prior to 2001. The Company did not adjust the prior periods as it concluded that such adjustments were not material to the prior periods financial
statements or to the current year. This item had no impact on cash flows for any period presented. (For additional information, see Note 11  Income Taxes.)

Effect of recently issued Authoritative Accounting Guidance  Financial Accounting Standards Update
No. 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements was effective January 1, 2010, for the Company and requires the disclosure of detailed information about valuation techniques, inputs used in determining fair
value, and transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair

value hierarchy. It also clarifies the existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation and about inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value and amends guidance
on employers disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets to require disclosures be provided by asset class instead of major categories of assets. The guidance pertains only to disclosures related to fair value measurements.

Subsequent events The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial
statements were issued.

Note 2  Inventories

Inventories at December 31 consisted of the following:



|                       |  |      |       |  |      |  |       |

|                       |  |      |       |  |      |  |       | 

The Company utilizes the lower of cost or market basis for determining inventory-carrying values. Lumber
inventory amounts at December 31, 2010 and 2009 are stated at lower of cost or net realizable value.

Note 3  Prepaid Expenses
and Other Current Assets

Prepaid expenses and other current assets at December 31 consisted of the following:



|                               |  |      |       |  |      |  |       |

Note 4  Investment in Del-Tin Fiber

Deltic owns 50 percent of the membership of Del-Tin Fiber, which operates a medium density fiberboard (MDF) plant near El Dorado, Arkansas.

At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Companys share of the underlying net assets of Del-Tin Fiber exceeded its investment by
$15,730,000 and $16,580,000, respectively. The difference relates primarily to the Companys write-off of its carrying amount for its investment in Del-Tin Fiber as of

Note 4  Investment in Del-Tin Fiber (cont.)



December 31, 2002, which was not recorded by Del-Tin Fiber. The equity in earnings of Del-Tin Fiber recognized by the Company exceeds its ownership percentage of Del-Tins earnings
because the difference in basis between the Company and Del-Tin Fiber is being adjusted to account for Del-Tin Fibers operating results as if it were a consolidated subsidiary.

Cumulative net losses for Del-Tin Fiber have amounted to $74,958,000, of which $37,479,000 is the Companys share. As of
December 31, 2010, the Companys total contributions to Del-Tin Fiber, net of repayments are $61,458,000. During 2010 and 2009, net repayments of $4,913,000 and $1,556,000, respectively, were received from Del-Tin Fiber. In 2008, net
contributions of $357,000 were made to Del-Tin Fiber.

On August 26, 2004, the Company executed a guarantee agreement in
connection with the refinancing of the debt of Del-Tin Fiber, which included both a five-year term loan and a long-term bond obligation. In connection with the bond obligation, Del-Tin Fiber has issued a letter of credit in support of the bond
obligation and both Deltic and the other joint venture partner agreed to guarantee Del-Tin Fibers performance under the letter of credit at inception. The Companys guarantee under the letter of credit expires on August 31, 2011. In
connection with the issuance of Deltics original guarantee of the letter of credit, the fair value of the guarantee of the bonds was determined to be de minimus. In reviewing the payment/performance risk associated with this guarantee, Deltic

present at December 31, 2010 and 2009. Borrowings under the current agreement bear interest at a base rate or an adjusted Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin, depending upon the type of loan the Company executes. The applicable margin
component of the interest rate varies with the type of loan and the Companys total debt to capital ratio. The agreement contains certain restrictive financial covenants, including a leverage ratio of no greater than .65 to 1.0, minimum timber
market value greater than 175 percent of outstanding total senior indebtedness, a fixed charge ratio coverage, and limitations on the incurrence of debt. Fees associated with the current revolving credit facility include a commitment fee of .10 to
..25 percent per annum on the unused portion of the committed amount. The unamortized prior costs and the 2007 amendment fees related to the securing of the current facility totaled $886,000, which were deferred and are being amortized as additional
interest expense over the term of the agreement.

The Company may also borrow up to $1,000,000 under a short-term credit
facility with BancorpSouth. The agreement expires December 31, 2011, with annual renewal. The amount available to the Company under this facility is reduced by any borrowings by the Company. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, Deltic had no
borrowings outstanding under this line of credit, resulting in $1,000,000 available to the Company. Borrowings bear interest based upon the New York Prime rate. Deltic also has an agreement with BancorpSouth to provide letters of credit. New letters
of credit are requested by the Company and are approved and issued by BancorpSouth on a case-by-case basis. Outstanding letters of credit as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 were $705,000 and $490,000, respectively.

|1 | The leverage ratio is calculated as total debt divided by total capital. Total debt includes indebtedness for borrowed money, secured liabilities,
obligations in respect of letters of credit, and guarantees. Total capital is the sum of total debt and net worth. Net worth is calculated as total assets minus total liabilities, as reflected on the balance sheet. This covenant is applied at the
end of each quarter.

|2 | The fixed charge coverage ratio is calculated as EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, and amortization) increased by
non-cash compensation expense and other non-cash expenses, and decreased by dividends paid and income tax paid, divided by the sum of interest expense and scheduled principal payments made on debt during the period. This covenant is applied at the
end of the quarter on a rolling four quarter basis.

|3 | Timber market value must be greater than 175% of total debt (as defined in (1) above.) The timber market value is calculated by multiplying the
average price received for sales of timber for the preceding four quarters by the current quarters ending inventory of timber. This covenant is applied at the end of the quarter on a rolling four quarter basis.

Based on managements current operating projections, the Company believes it will remain in compliance with the debt covenants.
However, depending on market conditions and potential economic uncertainties, in future periods the Company may need to request amendments, waivers for covenants, or obtain refinancing. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
obtain amendments, waivers, or negotiate agreeable refinancing terms should it become necessary.

In 2010, the Company recorded an out-of-period tax adjustment of approximately $420,000 related to the
true-up of state deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from periods 2001 and prior. The Company concluded that such adjustment was not material to the financial statements in each applicable prior period and the current period, both
individually and in the aggregate. The following table provides a reconciliation of the Companys income tax expense at the statutory U.S. federal rate of 35% to the actual income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009,

The net deferred tax liability is classified in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows:



|                           |  |      |        |   |      |  |        |

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, Deltics management considers whether it is more
likely than not that some portion or all of the Companys total deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of these deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in
which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical
taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the temporary differences are anticipated to reverse, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of its deferred tax
assets at December 31, 2010, as reductions of future taxable income or by utilizing available tax planning strategies. However, the amount of the net deferred tax assets considered realizable could be adjusted in the future if estimates of
taxable income are revised.

Unrecognized tax benefits represent potential future obligations to taxing authorities if
uncertain tax positions the Company has taken, primarily on previously filed state income tax returns, are not sustained. Liabilities established for unrecognized tax benefits may not be combined with deferred tax assets or liabilities, however,
when the unrecognized tax benefit is directly associated with a tax position taken in a tax year that results (or resulted) in the recognition of a deferred tax asset for an NOL for that year and such NOL has not yet been utilized, net presentation
is appropriate.

Note 11  Income Taxes (cont.)



A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits
(excluding both interest and any related federal benefits) is as follows:



|                                                          |  |      |       |   |      |   |       |

|                                                          |  |      |       |   |      |   |       |  
|Balance at December 31                                    |  | $    | 3,015 |   |      | $ | 1,938 |  
|                                                          |  |      |       |   |      |   |       |  

If the Company were to prevail on all unrecognized tax benefits recorded on the balance sheet, approximately
$2,421,000, as of December 31, 2010, would benefit the effective tax rate. The Companys policy is to recognize interest expense related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in other expenses. The Company had
approximately $18,000 and $17,000 accrued in deferred revenue and other accrued liabilities for interest and penalties at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The Company is no longer subject to federal and state income tax examination by tax authorities for years before 2007.

Note 12  Stockholders Rights Plan

The Company has a Stockholders
Rights Plan (Rights Plan), which provides for each eligible common shareholder to receive a dividend of one preferred stock purchase right (Right) for each outstanding share of the Companys common stock held. On
October 19, 2006, the Companys Board of Directors amended the Rights Plan to, among other items, extend its term to December 31, 2016, and to increase the exercise price of the rights to $200 per share. The Rights will detach from
the common stock and become exercisable: (1) following a specified period of time after the date of the first public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated persons (Acquiring Person), has become the
beneficial owner of 15 percent or more of the Companys common stock or (2) following a specified amount of time of the commencement of a tender or exchange offer by any Acquiring Person, which would, if consummated, result in such persons
becoming the beneficial owner of 15 percent or more of the Companys common stock. In either case, the detachment of the Rights from the common stock is subject to extension by a majority of the directors of the Company. The Rights have certain
anti-takeover effects and will cause substantial dilution to any Acquiring Person that attempts to acquire the Company without conditioning the offer on a substantial number of Rights being acquired. Other terms of the Rights are set forth in, and
the foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by, the Rights Agreement between the Company and Harris N.A. (formerly known as Harris Trust and Savings Bank), as Rights Agent.

Note 13  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value measurement accounting establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the quality of inputs used to measure fair value, with level
1 being the highest quality and level 3 being the lowest quality. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets on identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1. Level 3
inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect assumptions about pricing by market participants.

Information pertaining to the
fair value of the pension plan assets is found in Note 15  Employee and Retiree Benefit Plans.

Following is a
description of the valuation methodologies used for liabilities measured at fair value.

Nonqualified employee savings plan:Consists of mutual funds, which are valued at the net asset value of shares held by the plan at year-end, at quoted market prices.

The fair value measurements for the Companys financial liabilities accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2010 are presented in the following table:

The following table
presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of financial instruments held by the Company at December 31, 2010 and 2009. The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current
transaction between willing parties. The table excludes financial instruments included in current assets and liabilities, except current maturities of long-term debt, all of which have fair values approximating carrying values.

Long-term debt, including current maturities  The fair value is estimated by discounting the scheduled debt payment streams
to present value based on market rates for which the Companys debt could be refinanced.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 14  Concentration of Credit Risks

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to credit risk are trade accounts receivable. These receivables normally arise
from the sale of wood products and real estate. Concentration of credit with respect to these trade accounts receivable is limited due to the large number of customers comprising the Companys customer base. No single recurring customer
accounted for a significant amount of the Companys sales of wood products or real estate in 2010, 2009, or 2008. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no significant accounts receivable from a single customer. The Company performs
ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral to support accounts receivable.

Note 15 
Employee and Retiree Benefit Plans

The Company has a funded, qualified defined benefit retirement plan (Retirement
Plan) that covers each employee who completes 1,000 hours of service for a twelve-month period, once employment has commenced, and continues to meet both the 1,000 hours requirement and the employment requirement for each twelve-month period.
An unfunded, nonqualified supplemental executive retirement plan is maintained for certain current and former employees. All contributions to both plans are made by the Company. The plans provide defined benefits based on years of benefit service
and average monthly compensation as defined by the Companys Retirement Plan. The Company determines the vested benefit obligation on the actuarial present value based on the employees expected date of retirement. The Company also
sponsors a plan that provides comprehensive healthcare benefits (supplementing Medicare benefits for those eligible) and life insurance benefits for retired employees. Costs are accrued for this plan during the service lives of covered employees.
Retirees contribute a portion of the self-funded cost of healthcare benefits and the Company contributes the remainder. The Company pays premiums for life insurance coverage arranged through an insurance company. The health care plan is funded on a
pay-as-you-go basis. The Company retains the right to modify or terminate the benefits and /or cost sharing provisions. United States health care legislation enacted in 2010 is expected to affect companies that offer postemployment benefits to
employees. Based on managements understanding of this legislation and the types of benefits currently offered by the Companys benefit plan, it is estimated that the financial impact to the Company will be immaterial.

The following table sets forth the plans benefit obligations, fair value of plan assets, and funded status at December 31, 2010
and 2009.

The estimated net loss
and net prior service cost for the defined benefit and supplemental retirement pension plans that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year are $155,000 and $7,000,
respectively. The plan amendment for the other defined benefit postretirement plans that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year is $199,000.

The amount of projected expense of the qualified retirement plan is expected to be $995,000 for 2011. The Company expects to make
contributions during 2011 of approximately $1,200,000 to the qualified retirement plan, $236,000 to fund benefits paid from its nonqualified retirement plan, and approximately $418,000 to fund postretirement benefit plans.

The discount rate assumption used by the Company to measure benefit obligations and net periodic expenses is based on the estimated
interest rate at which the benefit obligations of its plans can be settled. For 2010 and 2009, the Company used a discount rate durational study of Other Postretirement Employee Benefit (OPEB) liabilities to determine an appropriate
discount rate.

To develop the expected long-term rate of return on asset assumption, the Company considered the current level
of expected returns on risk-free investments (primarily government bonds), the historical level of the risk premium allocated with the other asset classes in which the portfolio is invested, and the expectations for future returns of each asset
class. The expected return for each asset class was then weighted, based on the target asset allocation, to develop the expected long-term rate of return on asset assumption for the portfolio. The returns were adjusted to account for plan expenses.
This resulted in the selection of the 7.50 percent assumption.

In determining the benefit obligation for health care at
December 31, 2011, health care inflation cost was assumed to increase at an annual rate of five percent in 2011. Assumed health care cost trend rates have a significant effect on the amounts reported for the health care plan. A one
percentage-point increase in the assumed health care cost trend would increase the aggregate service and interest cost components of periodic benefit cost for 2011 by $121,000 and the benefit obligation by $1,251,000, while a one percentage-point
decrease in the assumed rate would decrease the 2011 cost components by $99,000 and the benefit obligation by $1,030,000.

Note 15  Employee and Retiree Benefit Plans (cont.)



Funded plan  The assets of the defined benefit plan, the
Plan, are contained in a trust, sponsored by Deltic, and administered by a trustee appointed by the Companys Pension Investment and Employees Benefits Committee.

The investment policy of the Plan is to achieve growth with the preservation of principal. To achieve the goal of growth of plan assets
(excluding contributions and withdrawals) at a rate that exceeds inflation, a balanced portfolio consisting of equities, fixed income, and cash equivalents is maintained. The components of the portfolio must be securities that have readily available
prices and can be sold easily without significantly impacting the price of the securities. The minimum and maximum asset allocation levels, at market, for large cap equity is 40 to 60 percent, small cap equity is 5 to 15 percent, international
equity is zero to 20 percent, fixed income is 30 to 55 percent, and up to 5 percent in cash equivalents.

The following types
of securities are permitted in the Plan.



|         |  |   |  |

|Cash equivalents |  |  |  | U.S. government securities.

Not more than
2.5 percent of the market value of Plan assets may be held in the securities of any single issuer with the exception of the U.S. government or its agencies. As of December 31, 2010, less than three percent of the total market value of the Plan
assets were invested in mortgage-backed securities issues.

Fair value measurement  Following is a description of
the valuation methodologies used for retirement plan assets measured at fair value.

Common stock, preferred securities, and
exchange-traded funds:Valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded.

Mutual funds and proprietary funds:Valued at the net asset value (NAV) of shares held by the plan at year-end, at quoted market prices.

Corporate debt obligations and U.S. government and agency securities:Valued using quoted prices for similar assets in active
markets; pricing models that utilize trade, bid and other market information; or benchmark curves, benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings, and matrix pricing.

Money market funds:Valued at par, which approximates fair value.

The
methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other
market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

Note 16  Incentive Plans

Stock Incentive Plan

On April 25, 2002, the Companys
shareholders approved the Deltic Timber Corporation 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2002 Plan). The 2002 Plan replaced the 1996 Stock Incentive Plan (the 1996 Plan), which was terminated. The 2002 Plan permits annual awards of
shares of the Companys common stock to executives, other key employees, and nonemployee directors. Under the plan, the Executive Compensation Committee (the Committee) is authorized to grant: (1) stock options;
(2) restricted stock and restricted stock units; (3) performance units; and (4) other stock-based awards,

including stock appreciation rights and rights to dividends and dividend equivalents. The number of shares available for issuance under the 2002 Plan is 1,800,000 shares unless adjustment is
determined necessary by the Committee as the result of dividend or other distribution, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of common
stock, or other corporate transaction in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available. At December 31, 2010, 1,116,862 of these 1,800,000 shares were available for award under the 2002
Plan. No participant in the 2002 Plan may receive options and stock appreciation rights in any calendar-year that relates to more than 50,000 shares, and the maximum number of shares, which may be awarded as restricted stock and restricted stock
units or other stock-based awards are 180,000 shares. The Company has a policy of issuing treasury stock to satisfy all share-based incentive plans.

Under the fair value recognition provisions for share-based payments, share-based compensation cost is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over
the requisite service period of the award. The fair value of stock options granted are determined using a binomial model. The fair value of restricted stock awards is determined by reference to the fair market value of the Companys common
stock on the date of grant. Restricted stock performance units are valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The benefits of tax deductions in excess of
recognized compensation cost is to be reported as a financing cash flow.

Deltic issues restricted stock performance units
whose vesting is contingent upon meeting certain financial performance goals based upon the Companys total stockholder return compared to the total return of a Paper and Forest Products Index selected by the Committee and calculated by
Standard and Poors. Determining the appropriate amount to expense is based on likelihood of achievement of the stated goals and requires judgment, including forecasting future financial results.

The Company uses historical volatility over a ten-year trading life to determine volatility assumptions. Risk-free interest rates are
based on historical rates and forward-looking factors. The expected dividend yield is based on the Companys average dividend yield from 2006 to 2009. The pre-vesting forfeiture rate is based on historical rates and forward-looking factors. The
expected option term is based on the term of the option and historical exercise and expiration experience.

Assumptions for the
2010, 2009, and 2008 valuation of stock options and restricted stock performance units consisted of the following:

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2010



Note 16  Incentive Plans (cont.)



The consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009,
and 2008 included $1,696,000, $1,705,000, and $1,669,000, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense reflected in general and administrative expenses. The potential income tax benefit derived from all share-based payment arrangements with
employees was $140,000, $102,000, and $874,000 for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, respectively.

Stock Options  For each option granted under the 2002 Plan, the Committee fixes the option price at not less than fair market value on the date of the grant and the option term, not to exceed
10 years from date of grant. The resulting fixed stock-based compensation cost was recognized over the vesting period for these options. Options granted after 1998 have been issued with terms of ten years and are nonqualified. All outstanding
options have an option price not less than the market value on the grant date, with a range in option prices of $24.31 to $53.75 per share. For all options granted since 2003, one-fourth vest after each one-year period over the subsequent four years
from issuance.

A summary of stock options as of December 31, 2010, and changes during the year ended are presented below:

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units  The Committee may grant
restricted stock and restricted stock units to selected employees, with conditions to vesting for each grant established by the Committee. During the vesting period, the grantee may vote and receive dividends on the shares, but shares are subject to
transfer restrictions and are all, or partially, forfeited if a grantee terminates, depending on the reason. Restricted stock and restricted stock units granted since 2003 have vested after four years and the stock based compensation is recognized
on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award.

December 31, 2010, and changes during the year then ended are presented below:

Diluted earnings per
common share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares determined for the basic earnings per common share computation plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents using the treasury stock method. Options to purchase shares,
which were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the options were anti-dilutive, were 64,157, 97,295, and 28,970 respectively, for 2010, 2009, and 2008. Restricted performance shares, which were
outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they do not meet the metrics established for awarding, were 14,157, 15,788, and none respectively for 2010, 2009, and 2008.

Note 19  Variable Interest Entity

The acquisition of certain timberlands in Calhoun County, Arkansas, in October 2009, was structured to qualify as the second step of a reverse like-kind exchange under Internal Revenue Code
Section 1031 and Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Revenue Procedure 2000-37. Prior to closing on the purchase, the Company assigned all of its rights and duties under the purchase and sale agreement to Hampton Acquisition, LLC
(Hampton), a company unaffiliated with Deltic. Hampton, as an exchange accommodation titleholder, acquired the timberlands. Deltic loaned to Hampton an amount equal to the purchase price of the assets.

Based on the provisions of the FASB codification related to consolidations of variable interest entities, FASC 810-10, the Company
determined that Hampton is a variable interest entity for which Deltic was the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, Hampton was consolidated into Deltic subsequent to the completion of the purchase of timberlands on October 7, 2009. The second
step of this like-kind exchange was concluded on April 14, 2010, and all assets were transferred to Deltic on that date.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2010



Note 20  Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments  Commitments for capital expenditures at December 31, 2010, were approximately $436,000 for
property, plant, and equipment; and $195,000 for investment in real estate held for development and sale and amenities.

Contingencies  The Company has various contingencies related to its investment in Del-Tin Fiber and has either recorded such contingencies into its financial statements or disclosed the
conditions of the contingency. (For additional information, see Note 4  Investment in Del-Tin Fiber.)

The Company is
also involved in other litigation incidental to its business from time to time. Currently, there are no other material legal proceedings outstanding.

Note 21  Subsequent Events

On February 4, 2011, the Company
amended and extended its unsecured and committed revolving credit facility. The amended facility allows $297,500,000 of borrowings and will mature on September 9, 2015. Deltic incurred $1,094,000 in fees to facilitate the amendment, which will
be amortized over the length of the agreement.

Note 22  Business Segments

The Companys four reporting segments consist of Deltics three operating business units and its corporate function. Each
reporting entity has a separate management team and infrastructure that offers different products and/or services.

Woodlands
operations manage the Companys Southern Pine timberlands located primarily in Arkansas and northern Louisiana and derive revenue from the harvest of timber from the timberlands in accordance with its harvest plans, and either sells timber to
third parties in the domestic market or to the Companys Mills segment for conversion into lumber. In addition, this segment may, from time to time, identify and sell a portion of its timberland holdings that is either non-strategic to future
timberland management activities or has appreciated, due primarily to location, to a level that exceeds its value as a timber-growing asset. This segment also generates revenue from oil and gas royalties and the leasing of hunting, oil and gas, and
other rights on its timberlands.

The Mills segment consists of Deltics two sawmills which convert timber, either
purchased from third parties or the Companys Woodlands segment, into lumber. These mills produce a variety of products, including dimension lumber, boards, and timbers. These products are sold primarily to wholesale distributors, retailers,
lumber treaters, and truss manufacturers in the South and Midwest and are used in residential construction, roof trusses and laminated beams.

Real Estate operations, which include real estate developments, add value to former timberland by developing it into upscale, planned residential and commercial developments. These developments, which are
generally centered on a core amenity, are being developed in stages. Historically, real estate sales have consisted primarily of residential lots sold to builders or individuals, commercial site sales,

and sales of undeveloped acreage. In addition, this segment currently leases retail and office space to third parties in a retail center constructed by the Company, and held for sale, in one of
its developments. This segment also manages: (1) a real estate brokerage subsidiary which generates commission revenue by reselling existing homes and (2) a country club operation, Chenal Country Club, Inc., around which the Companys
Chenal Valley development is centered. This club operation derives its revenues from membership services, food and beverage sales, and membership dues.

Corporate operations consist primarily of senior management, accounting, information systems, human resources, purchasing, treasury, income tax, and legal staff functions that provide support services to
the operating business units. The Company currently does not allocate the cost of maintaining these support functions to its operating units.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 1  Significant Accounting Policies. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on
operating income before results of: Del-Tin Fiber, an equity method investee; interest income and expense; other non-operating income or expense; and income taxes. Intersegment revenues consist primarily of timber sales from the Woodlands segment to
the Mills operations and are transferred at rates that approximate market for the respective operating area.

the Companys business segments consisted of the following:

The Shareholders

Deltic Timber Corporation:

The management of Deltic Timber Corporation has prepared and is responsible for the Companys consolidated financial statements. The
statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, appropriate in the circumstances. In preparing the financial statements, management has, when necessary, made judgments and
estimates with consideration given to materiality.

The Companys consolidated financial statements have been audited by KPMG LLP, an
independent registered public accounting firm, who have expressed their opinion with respect to the fairness of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Their audit was conducted in
accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the Audit Committee) appoints the independent auditors; ratification of the appointment is
solicited annually from the shareholders.

The Audit Committee is composed of directors who are not officers or employees of the Company and
who have been determined by the Companys Board of Directors to meet applicable independence standards under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Audit Committee meets periodically with KPMG LLP, the Companys internal auditor, and
representatives of management to review the Companys internal controls, the quality of its financial reporting, the scope and results of audits, and the independence of the external auditors. The Companys internal auditor and KPMG LLP
have unrestricted access to the Audit Committee, without managements presence, to discuss audit findings and other financial matters.

accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Companys assets that could
have a material effect on the financial statements.

Deltics management performed an assessment of the effectiveness of the
Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based upon criteria in Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission
(COSO). Based on its assessment, management determined that the Companys internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010, based on the criteria in Internal Control  Integrated

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Deltic Timber Corporation and Subsidiaries (the

2010. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of the Company as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States), the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the

financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in
accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could
have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not
prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies
or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, Deltic Timber Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets
of Deltic Timber Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the related consolidated statements of income, cash flows, stockholders equity, and comprehensive income/(loss) for each of the years in the three-year
period ended December 31, 2010, and our report dated March 4, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Deltic Timber Corporation (Deltic or the Company) has
established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the officers who certify the Companys financial reports and to other members
of senior management and the Board of Directors.

Based on their evaluation as of December 31, 2010, the Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company have concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective to ensure that the
information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and this
information was accumulated and communicated to the Companys Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Companys management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such
term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, Deltic conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on evaluation under the framework in
Internal Control  Integrated Framework, management concluded that internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010. The effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as
of December 31, 2010, has been audited by KPMG, LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears in the Companys 2010 Annual Report to Shareholders which is included in this Form 10-K.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Deltics management, with the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated any changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the
Companys most recent fiscal quarter (the Companys fourth quarter in the case of an annual report), and have concluded that there was no change to Deltics internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, Deltics internal control over financial reporting.

Independent Auditors Report

Board of Managers

Del-Tin Fiber, L.L.C.

El Dorado, Arkansas

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Del-Tin Fiber, L.L.C. as of January 1, 2011 and January 2, 2010, and the
related statements of operations, members capital and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended January 1, 2011. The Companys management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the
standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The
Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial
statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Del-Tin Fiber, L.L.C. as of January 1, 2011 and January 2, 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in
the three-year period ended January 1, 2011 in conformity with accounting principles general accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Financial Statements

January 1, 2011, January 2, 2010 and January 3, 2009



|1. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
|-- | ------------------------------------------



| | a. | Description of business  Del-Tin Fiber, L.L.C. (Del-Tin or the Company) is an Arkansas limited liability company organized in
February 1995 and is equally owned by Temple-Inland Forest Products Corporation (Temple-Inland), a Delaware corporation, and Deltic Timber Corporation (Deltic), a Delaware corporation. Del-Tin is to exist until
December 31, 2024, unless the Company is earlier dissolved in accordance with either the provisions of the Operating Agreement or the Arkansas Small Business Entity Tax Pass Through Act. The business of the Company is to manufacture, distribute
and sell medium density fiberboard (MDF) under the trade name Solidium. Within the United States, MDF is sold primarily to manufacturers and distributors of laminated flooring, furniture, cabinets, fixtures and molding.
Temple-Inland and Deltic share equally in revenue, expenses, disbursements and funding requirements of the joint venture.
| | -- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Under the terms of a separate MDF Marketing Agreement, Temple-Inland serves as the exclusive marketing agent for all MDF produced at the facility. The original agreement, commencing June 1998 for a
five-year term, is automatically extended for successive five-year periods unless either party elects not to extend.



| | b. | Accounting period  The Companys fiscal year is the 52 or 53-week period ending the Saturday closest to December 31. Fiscal years 2010, 2009 and
2008 ended on January 1, 2011, January 2, 2010 and January 3, 2009, respectively. Reference to years in these financial statements relate to fiscal years rather than calendar years.
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | c. | Cash and cash equivalents  The Company considers short-term investments with a remaining maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be
cash equivalents. The Company had no such investments at January 1, 2011 or January 2, 2010. There are checks outstanding in the amount of $681,563 and $522,819 included in accounts payable at January 1, 2011 and January 2, 2010,
respectively
| | -- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | d. | Sale of accounts receivable  The Company accounts for the transfer of trade receivables under its marketing agreement with Temple-Inland in accordance with
the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 860, Transfers and Servicing. Since the criteria established by ASC 860 are met, the transfer of receivables is
recorded as a sale. Accordingly, these transferred receivables are not included as receivables from customers, but rather from Temple-Inland. See Note 6 for further discussion.
| | -- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | e. | Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the weighted-average method for all inventories.
| | -- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | f. | Property, plant and equipment  Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of buildings, machinery and
equipment, and other depreciable assets is calculated over the estimated useful lives of the assets by using the units of production method for machinery and equipment and the straight-line method for all other depreciable assets.

|1. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)
|-- | --------------------------------------------------



The estimated useful lives for property, plant and equipment, excluding
machinery and equipment, are as follows:



|                  |  |  |             | 
|----------------- |  |  | ----------- | 
|Buildings         |  |  | 40 years    | 
|Land improvements |  |  | 20 years    | 
|Vehicles          |  |  | 3 - 5 years | 

Routine maintenance and repairs are charged to operating expense, while costs of equipment upgrades and replacements are
capitalized. Spare part inventories used for routine maintenance and repairs, which are expensed as utilized, are included on the inventory line item of the balance sheets for reporting purposes. Certain capitalized spare part inventories are
considered equipment replacements whose useful lives exceed two years and which are considered necessary to extend the useful life of the related production assets. During the year ended January 1, 2011, $33,934 of capitalized spare part
inventory was transferred to fixed assets in service. During the year ended January 2, 2010, $209,066 of capitalized spare part inventories was transferred to standard inventory due to changes in management estimates of useful lives. When an
asset is retired or sold, its cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the difference between the net book value of the asset and proceeds from disposition is recognized as a gain or loss.

The Company assesses impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when events and circumstances indicate that
the assets might be impaired and the estimated undiscounted cash flows to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amounts of those assets. Impairment losses are recognized if the estimated fair value of the assets is less than its
carrying value. The Company experienced no such triggering events in 2010, 2009 or 2008.



| | g. | Intangible assets  The Company has recorded an intangible asset in relation to deferred loan acquisition costs. These loan acquisition costs are being
amortized over the lives of the associated liabilities using the straight line method. Future amortization is as follows:

|---- |  | - | ------ | 
|2011 |  | $ | 22,988 | 
|     |  |   |        | 



| | h. | Revenue recognition Revenue from the sale of products is recognized upon passage of title to the customer, which is at the time of delivery or customer
pickup. Net sales presented on the statements of operations consist of gross sales less discounts, returns and rebates.
| | -- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | i. | Income taxes Since the Company is a limited liability company, it has the option of being taxed as a partnership or a corporation. The Company elected to
be taxed as a partnership and as such is not subject to income taxes at the Company level. All taxes are recognized by the members of the Company.
| | -- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | j. | Use of estimates  Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions, relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, to prepare these financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

|4. | Indebtedness and Financing Arrangements (cont.)
|-- | -----------------------------------------------



The Bonds

In December 1998, the Union County, Arkansas Taxable Industrial Bonds (the Bonds) were issued by Union County,
Arkansas, in the amount of $60,000,000, to finance the completion of the construction of the Companys MDF plant, as well as the acquisition, construction and improvement of certain sewage and solid waste disposal facilities related to the
Companys MDF plant. Neither the State of Arkansas, nor Union County, Arkansas, has any liability under the Bonds. The Company and Union County contemporaneously entered into a lease agreement (the Lease Agreement) that obligated
the Company to make lease payments in an amount necessary to fund the debt service on the Bonds. The Bonds were payable solely from the proceeds of the letters of credit issued to support the respective Bonds and from Company payments under the Loan
Agreement and the Lease Agreement with Union County, Arkansas. The Company has also unconditionally guaranteed the payment of all amounts owing under the Bonds to the bondholders. The Companys indebtedness has been presented in these financial
statements as though the Company was directly liable for the Bonds. If the Bonds are not remarketed as allowed under the agreement, the letters of credit and the commitment of the lenders are available to support repayment.

The Bonds currently bear interest at a variable rate determined weekly by the remarketing agent of the respective Bonds.
Interest is due on the first business day of the month, and all unpaid interest and all principal is due on October 1, 2027. The interest rate on the Bonds was .64% in 2010 and 1.61% in 2009.

As a result of the Companys debt refinancing on August 26, 2004, $31,000,000 of the Bonds were retired on
September 1, 2004, with the Lease Agreement remaining in place.

The Credit Facility

On August 26, 2004, the Company entered into a Letter of Credit and Term Loan Agreement (Credit
Agreement) with SunTrust Bank and a group of other domestic banks (the New Lenders), in order to refinance a portion of the Companys existing debt. Under the new Credit Agreement, the New Lenders, on August 26, 2004,
loaned Del-Tin $30,000,000, which is repayable over five years in equal quarterly installments, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2004. The term loan was fully repaid during the year ended January 2, 2010. The funds provided from this term
note were used, together with the existing balance in the Companys debt service reserve and bond sinking fund accounts, to retire, in their entirety, the 1997 Series A and Series B revenue bonds, and $31,000,000 of the outstanding Bonds. In
addition, under the Credit Agreement a letter of credit in the amount of $29,689,000 was issued on the Companys behalf to support the remaining balance of the Bonds of $29,000,000. As amended in July 2008, this letter of credit commitment
expires on August 31, 2011. Consistent with the previous credit facility, under the new debt facility, substantially all of the Companys assets are pledged to the New Lenders as security for the Credit Agreement.

However, under the new Credit Agreement, the Company is not required to
maintain debt service reserve funds or sinking fund balances. The Credit Agreement contains customary terms and conditions, including certain representations and warranties, and affirmative and negative nonfinancial covenants.

As further security for the new Credit Agreement, each member has executed a guarantee agreement unconditionally
guaranteeing, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the due and punctual payment of Del-Tins obligations under the new Credit Agreement. Accordingly, all previous member guarantee agreements under the prior credit facility were
terminated.

Upon the refinancing of the Companys previous credit facility, all unamortized debt issuance
cost not relating to the remaining outstanding Bonds, in the amount of $216,709, were expensed in 2004 and reflected as a loss on extinguishment of debt. In connection with the new Credit Agreement, the Company incurred approximately $577,000 in
related costs, which have been included in the balance sheets in deferred debt costs, $119,533 of which were incurred during the year ended January 3, 2009. Deferred debt costs related to the Term Loan Agreement are being amortized to interest
expense on a straight-line method over the life of the new Credit Agreement, while those related to the Bonds are being amortized to interest and other debt expense.

The Company is subject to certain restrictive covenants in connection with the Bonds and its credit facility, and was in
compliance with such covenants as of January 1, 2011.



|5. | Lease Commitments
|-- | -----------------

The Company is obligated under noncancelable operating leases for various pieces of equipment. As of January 1, 2011, future minimum lease commitments under noncancelable operating leases consisted
of the following:



|     |  |   |         | 
|---- |  | - | ------- | 
|2011 |  | $ | 46,859  | 
|2012 |  |   | 27,929  | 
|2013 |  |   | 27,929  | 
|2014 |  |   | 6,982   |

|     |  | $ | 109,699 | 
|     |  |   |         | 

Rent expense for all operating leases totaled $41,754 in 2010, $69,344 in 2009 and $89,926 in
2008.

|6. | Related Party Transactions
|-- | --------------------------

The Company is assessed a fee for marketing services provided by Temple-Inland. This expense amounted to $1,754,873 in 2010, $1,363,293 in 2009 and $1,535,480 in 2008, and is included in selling, general
and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. In 2009, Del-Tin received a subsidy of $311,075 from Temple-Inland for purchase of shavings from a certain supplier due to higher prices. This amount is included in the raw
material cost. As of January 1, 2011 and January 2, 2010, there were outstanding amounts of $170,318 and $70,524, respectively, payable to Temple-Inland comprised primarily of freight charges, which are included in accounts payable on the
accompanying balance sheets. Raw materials purchased from Temple-Inland during 2010, 2009 and 2008 amounted to $37,786, $382,179 and $148,582, respectively.

Under the terms of the MDF Marketing Agreement, the Companys sales are processed by Temple-Inland. A corresponding receivable is recorded by the Company equal to the outstanding trade receivable
balance maintained by Temple-Inland. Funds are transferred to the Company from Temple-Inland based on previous weeks sales. All credit risk relating to the Companys trade receivables remains with Temple-Inland. As of January 1, 2011
and January 2, 2010, the Companys balance due from Temple-Inland relating to the trade receivables was $2,848,038 and $2,229,886, respectively.

The Company purchases raw materials from Deltic. Total purchases of raw materials amounted to approximately $4,446,000 in 2010, $4,450,000 in 2009 and $4,602,000 in 2008. In relation to these purchases,
the Company had outstanding balances payable of $98,513 to Deltic on January 1, 2011 and $74,063 at January 2, 2010, which are included in accounts payable on the accompanying balance sheets.

The Company provides retirement benefits for its employees through two plans administered by Temple-Inland. The obligation
and responsibility for the plan resides with Temple-Inland. For the defined contribution plan, the Companys contributions were $112,890 in 2010, $117,655 in 2009 and $112,163 in 2008. The Companys contributions were $64,913 in 2010,

|8. | Contingencies
|-- | -------------

The Company is involved in various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on
the Companys financial position or results of operations.



|9. | Concentrations of Credit Risk
|-- | -----------------------------

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable with customers and cash deposited with financial institutions. The
Company generally does not require collateral from its customers. However, such credit risk is considered by management to be limited due to the marketing agreement the Company maintains with Temple-Inland.

At January 1, 2011 and January 2, 2010 and various times throughout these years, the Company maintained cash
balances with certain financial institutions in excess of the federal deposit insurance limit.



|10. | Subsequent Events Evaluation Date
|--- | ---------------------------------

The Company evaluated the events and transactions subsequent to its January 1, 2011 balance sheet date and, in accordance with FASB ASC 855-10-50, Subsequent Events, determined there were
no significant events to report through January 20, 2011, which is the date the Company issued its financial statements.
