Item 8.01    Other Events.

        Boise Cascade Company (the "Company") is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to update the Company's audited financial statements, which were included under "Part II—Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the "2012 Form 10-K"), filed with the SEC on March 7, 2013. The Company's registration statement on Form S-8 filed on February 26, 2013, currently incorporates by reference the financial statements contained in the 2012 Form 10-K. By filing this Current Report on Form 8-K, the Company is updating such financial statements.

        On April 9, 2013, the Company's registration statement on Form S-4 relating to the exchange offer of its 63/8% Senior Notes due 2020 was declared effective (the "Form S-4"). In accordance with Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 contained in the Form S-4 included consolidating guarantor and nonguarantor financial information as a note to such financial statements to present the consolidating statements of comprehensive income (loss), consolidating balance sheets, and consolidating statements of cash flows of the Company and its guarantor and nonguarantor subsidiaries for the periods presented therein. Such information was not required to be included until such time as the Company had a registered security that is guaranteed.

        Only the update described above is being made to the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012. For convenience, the Company has reproduced the entire text of the affected section of the 2012 Form 10-K, which is being filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

        Information in the 2012 Form 10-K is generally stated as of December 31, 2012 and this filing does not reflect any subsequent information or events. This Current Report on Form 8-K should be read in conjunction with the 2012 Form 10-K and the Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Other filings contain important information regarding events, developments and updates to certain events and expectations of the Company that have occurred since the filing of the 2012 Form 10-K.
