Pulp and Paperboard Segment
Net sales in the Pulp and Paperboard segment were $274 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, up 5% compared to fourth quarter 2021 net sales of $261 million. Segment operating income for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $18 million compared to $53 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. Adjusted EBITDA for the segment was $27 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $62 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The decrease in operating income and Adjusted EBITDA was driven by planned major maintenance at our Lewiston, Idaho facility, operational issues at both mills and a weather event at our Cypress Bend, Arkansas facility, and higher input costs specifically related to chemicals and energy, partially offset by higher sales prices.
Net sales in the Pulp and Paperboard segment were $1.1 billion for 2022, an increase of 20% compared to 2021 net sales of $946 million. Segment operating income for 2022 was $183 million compared to $126 million for 2021. Adjusted EBITDA for the segment was $220 million for 2022, compared to $161 million for 2021. The increase in operating income and Adjusted EBITDA was driven by higher sales prices, partly offset by higher input costs specifically related to fiber, chemicals, freight and energy and higher outage costs as well as operational issues.

USE OF NON-GAAP MEASURES
In this press release, the company presents certain non-GAAP financial information for the fourth quarter and full year 2022 and 2021, including adjusted net income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share and Adjusted EBITDA. Because these amounts are not in accordance with GAAP, reconciliations to net income (loss) as determined in accordance with GAAP are included in the tables at the end of this press release. The company presents these non-GAAP amounts because management believes they assist investors and analysts in comparing the company's performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that the company does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance. In addition, the company uses Adjusted EBITDA: (i) as a factor in evaluating management’s performance when determining incentive compensation, (ii) to evaluate the effectiveness of the company's business strategies, and (iii) because the company's credit agreement and the indentures governing the company's outstanding notes use metrics similar to Adjusted EBITDA to measure the company's compliance with certain covenants.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 as amended, including statements regarding inflation, our expectations regarding the paperboard and tissue markets, operational and financial performance, cash flow generation and ability to execute into the first quarter and 2023.
