MASISA S.A. REPORTS CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE FIRST HALF 2003

(Santiago, Chile, August 29, 2003) – Masisa S.A. - (NYSE: MYS), South America’s leading particle board, MDF and OSB manufacturer, today announced its consolidated financial results stated in Chilean GAAP for the second quarter and the six-month period ended June 30, 2003.

Masisa reported a net income of Ch$ 690 million (US$1.0 million) for the six-month period ended June 30, 2003, which represents a 90.1% decrease when compared to the same period of the previous year. In the second quarter Masisa’s net income reached Ch$614 million, which represents a 79.0% decrease when compared to the second quarter of 2002, although this represents a 704.4% increase when compare to the first quarter figure.

The income decrease when compared to 2002 first half results is mainly explained by a lower operating income, principally derived from lower prices in particle board sales and a temporary reduction of the MDF production in Chile experienced during the first quarter of the year, that affected volume sales and production costs in that country.

During the first half of year 2003, the Company’s gross profit decreased by 8.1% when compared to the same period of the previous year. In spite of this, Masisa’s second quarter gross profit increased 6.9% when compared to the same period of the previous year, and increased 12.0% when compared to 2003 first quarter gross profit. Revenues amounted to Ch$90,461 million (US$129.4 million), representing an increase of 15.8% in comparison to the same period of the previous year, while cost of sales increased by 25.6%. Since SG&A expenses increased by 45.4%, Masisa’s operating income reached Ch$6,696 million (US$9.6 million), which represents a 48.2% decrease compared to the first half of 2002, mainly explained by lower prices in spite of an increase in volume sales. Second quarter operating income reached Ch$4,072 million (US$5.8 million), representing a 55.2% increase compared to the first quarter of 2003. The operating margin reached 7.4% during the first six-months of the year, which unfavorably compares with a 16.5% operating margin for the same period of 2002. The Company’s operating margin in the second quarter reached 9.2%, which favorably compares to the 5.7% margin of the first quarter 2003.

During the first half of 2003, consolidated particleboard volume sales increased by 6.8% when compared to the

same period of the previous year, reaching 281,045 m³. In the case of MDF, consolidated volume sales increased by 8.7%, reaching 327,685 m³. OSB consolidated volume sales increased 75.7%, reaching 56,635 m³.

The Company ended the period with a leverage ratio of 0.67 as of June 30, 2003, while cash and securities amounted to US$53.8 million. On a consolidated basis and starting in June, certain Masisa do Brasil liabilities are presented net of certain securities held by the Company related to the financing of those liabilities.
