About Rayonier Inc. REIT

Rayonier is a real estate investment trust built around land ownership, holding more than four million acres of timberland across the southern and northwestern United States. It is best known for managing these forested properties and guiding them toward their most valuable use over time, whether that means continued timber production or conversion to other purposes.

Beyond growing and harvesting timber, Rayonier runs six sawmills and a plywood mill that turn raw wood into industrial and construction materials. It also develops residential and commercial real estate and runs a program for selling rural land, giving it multiple ways to generate income from its holdings. The company ties its operations to sustainable forestry practices, pursues third-party certification of its land, and frames part of its land-based work around addressing climate change.

Rayonier traces its incorporation back to 1926 in North Carolina and now operates out of Yulee, Florida. Its shares trade under the ticker RYN.

Last earnings call, Aug 5, 2026 AI summary

What they said
Rayonier reported Q2 2026 GAAP earnings of $19M ($0.06/share), with adjusted net income of $32M ($0.10/share) and adjusted EBITDA of $124M, significantly above prior year due to PotlatchDeltic merger contributions. The company closed two timberland transactions: selling 36,000 acres in Southwest Washington for $145M and acquiring 57,000 acres in Texas/Alabama for $146M as a tax-efficient like-kind exchange. Southern Timber adjusted EBITDA reached $53M, up 85% year-over-year, driven by doubled harvest volumes.
Guidance
Management remains on track to achieve run-rate synergy targets from the PotlatchDeltic merger. The timberland exchange transactions are expected to be accretive to cash flow with additional HBU real estate upside. New corporate headquarters in Atlanta expected to open early 2027.
