Item 2.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (“MD&A”)

When we refer to “Rayonier” or “the Company” we mean Rayonier Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. References to the “Operating Partnership” mean Rayonier, L.P. and its consolidated subsidiaries. References to “we,” “us,” or “our,” mean collectively Rayonier Inc., the Operating Partnership, and entities/subsidiaries owned or controlled by Rayonier Inc. and/or the Operating Partnership. References herein to “Notes to Financial Statements” refer to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of Rayonier Inc. and Rayonier, L.P. included in Item 1 of this report.

This MD&A is intended to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and certain other factors, which may affect future results. Our MD&A should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this report, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “2025 Form 10-K”), and information contained in our subsequent reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

In June 2025, we completed the sale of our 77% interest in a New Zealand joint venture. The results of these operations are reflected as discontinued operations in the prior-year comparative periods. See Note 3 — Discontinued Operations for additional information.

On January 30, 2026, Rayonier completed its merger with PotlatchDeltic Corporation (“PCH” or “PotlatchDeltic”) in a merger-of-equals transaction. Under the terms of the merger agreement, PotlatchDeltic stockholders received 1.8185 Rayonier common shares and $0.61 in cash for each PotlatchDeltic share held, and we issued approximately 140.9 million Rayonier common shares in connection with the closing. As the accounting acquirer, our consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2026 include PotlatchDeltic results from January 31, 2026 through March 31, 2026. See Note 2 — Merger with PotlatchDeltic Corporation for additional information pertaining to the merger.

As a result of the merger, we added a Wood Products segment and renamed our Pacific Northwest Timber segment to Northwest Timber. See Note 4 — Segment and Geographical Information for further discussion of our reportable segments.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements in this document regarding anticipated financial outcomes, including our earnings guidance, if any, business and market conditions, outlook, expected dividend rate, our acquisition and disposition activity, including the ability to realize the intended benefits of our recent merger with PotlatchDeltic Corporation (“PotlatchDeltic”), expected harvest schedules, timberland acquisitions and dispositions, the anticipated benefits of our business strategies, including the recent sale of the entities holding our interest in the New Zealand joint venture and the anticipated use of proceeds from such sale, and other similar statements relating to our future events, developments, or financial or operational performance or results, are “forward-looking statements” made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements are identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “estimate,” “believe,” “intend,” “project,” “anticipate,” “long-term,” “looking ahead” and other similar language. However, the absence of these or similar words or expressions does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. While management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable when made, forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or events, and undue reliance should not be placed on these statements. The risk factors contained in Item 1A — Risk Factors in our 2025 Form 10-K, and similar discussions included in other reports that we subsequently file with the SEC, among others, could cause actual results or events to differ materially from our historical experience and those expressed in forward-looking statements made in this document.

Forward-looking statements are only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no duty to update our forward-looking statements except as required by law. You are advised, however, to review any subsequent disclosures we make on related subjects in subsequent reports filed with the SEC.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

To supplement our financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), we use certain non-GAAP measures, including “Cash Available for Distribution” and “Adjusted EBITDA,” which are defined and further explained in Performance and Liquidity Indicators below. Reconciliation of such measures to the nearest GAAP measures can also be found in Performance and Liquidity Indicators below. Our definitions of these non-GAAP measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. These non-GAAP measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

OBJECTIVE

The objective of the Management’s Discussion and Analysis is to detail material information, events, uncertainties, and other factors impacting the Company and the Operating Partnership and to provide investors an understanding of “Management’s perspective.” Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis highlights the critical areas for evaluating our performance which include a discussion on the reportable segments, liquidity and capital, and critical accounting estimates. The MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our financial statements and notes.

OUR COMPANY

    We are a land resources real estate investment trust (“REIT”) with a portfolio comprising over four million acres in the U.S. South and U.S. Northwest. We are focused on managing our timberlands on a sustainable basis while optimizing our overall portfolio value by delivering land to its highest and best use. We also operate six sawmills, an industrial-grade plywood mill, residential and commercial real estate developments, and a rural land sales program. We are committed to corporate responsibility, third-party forest certification, and supporting climate change mitigation through our land-based solutions business. We conduct our business through an umbrella partnership real estate investment trust (“UPREIT”) structure in which our assets are owned by our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries. Rayonier manages the Operating Partnership as its sole general partner. Our revenues, operating income and cash flows are primarily derived from the following core business segments: Southern Timber, Northwest Timber, Wood Products, and Real Estate. Due to the sale of our entire 77% interest in the New Zealand joint venture, the results of our New Zealand operations have been reflected as discontinued operations. See Note 4 — Segment and Geographical Information for further discussion of our reportable segments and Note 3 — Discontinued Operations for additional information regarding the sale of the New Zealand joint venture. As of March 31, 2026, we owned or leased under long-term agreements approximately 4.1 million acres of timberlands located in the U.S. South (3.2 million acres) and U.S. Northwest (930 thousand acres).

SEGMENT INFORMATION

    The Southern Timber and Northwest Timber segments include all activities related to the harvesting of timber and other value-added activities such as the licensing of properties for hunting, the leasing of properties for mineral extraction and cell towers, revenue from land-based solutions such as carbon capture and storage and solar energy, and log trading activities conducted from the U.S. South and Northwest.

    The Wood Products segment manufactures and sells lumber, plywood, and residual products at seven mills located in Arkansas, Idaho, Michigan, and Minnesota.

The Real Estate segment includes all land sales disaggregated into six sales categories: Improved Development, Unimproved Development, Rural, Timberland & Non-Strategic, Conservation Easements, and Large Dispositions. It also includes residential and commercial lease activity, primarily in the town of Port Gamble, Washington, as well as revenue from our country club operations in Chenal Valley.

Our Southern Timber and Northwest Timber segments supply our Wood Products segment with a portion of its wood fiber needs, which typically represent a sizable portion of the Southern Timber and Northwest Timber segments’ total revenues. Our other segments generally do not generate intersegment revenues. Intersegment sales are based on prevailing market rates and are eliminated in consolidation.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

For a full description of our environmental matters, see Item 1 - “Business” in our 2025 Form 10-K and our sustainability report located at our Responsible Stewardship webpage.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

    The preparation of financial statements requires us to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base these estimates and assumptions on historical data, market trends, current fact patterns, and other information we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates. For a full description of our critical accounting policies, see Item 7 — Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2025 Form 10-K.

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

We account for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting, under which all assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests, are recorded at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. The preliminary allocation of purchase price in a business combination uses significant assumptions and estimates. Critical estimates include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows, including revenues and expenses, and applicable discount rates. While we believe our estimates and assumptions to be reasonable, they are subject to change as we obtain additional information related to those estimates during the applicable measurement periods (up to one year from the acquisition date). Pursuant to ASC 805, our financial statements are not retrospectively adjusted for any provisional amount changes that occur in subsequent periods. Rather, we recognize any provisional amount adjustments during the reporting period in which the adjustments are determined. We also record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depletion, depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of any change to provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date.

DETERMINING THE ADEQUACY OF PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

In connection with the merger with PotlatchDeltic Corporation on January 30, 2026, we assumed one qualified defined benefit pension plan, two nonqualified pension plans, and two other postretirement employee benefit ("OPEB") plans. Under ASC 805, the assumed benefit obligations and plan assets were remeasured at fair value as of the acquisition date, and net periodic benefit cost in the post-acquisition period is based on assumptions established at that date.

Measurement of the benefit obligations and net periodic ben

Item 7.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OBJECTIVE

The objective of the Management’s Discussion and Analysis is to detail material information, events, uncertainties and other factors impacting the Company and the Operating Partnership and to provide investors an understanding of “Management’s perspective.” Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) highlights the critical areas for evaluating our performance which includes a discussion on the reportable segments, liquidity and capital, and critical accounting estimates. The MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our financial statements and notes.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

In June 2025, we completed the sale of our 77% interest in a New Zealand joint venture. Consequently, these operations are classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented. See Note 2 — Discontinued Operations for additional information.

Effective with the third quarter of 2025, we realigned our reporting segments to reflect how our CODM, the Chief Executive Officer, evaluates performance and allocates capital. As part of the realignment, the previously reported Trading segment’s log trading activities conducted in the U.S. South and Pacific Northwest are now reported in the respective Southern Timber or Pacific Northwest Timber segments based on geographical location for all periods presented. See Note 3 — Segment and Geographical Information for further discussion of our reportable segments.

On January 30, 2026, Rayonier completed its merger with PotlatchDeltic Corporation (“PotlatchDeltic”) in a merger-of-equals transaction. Under the terms of the merger agreement, PotlatchDeltic stockholders received 1.8185 Rayonier common shares and $0.61 in cash for each PotlatchDeltic share held. In connection with the closing, we issued approximately 140.9 million Rayonier common shares.

This transaction significantly expands our timberland portfolio and introduces wood products manufacturing capabilities, enhancing our scale, geographic diversity, and long-term growth prospects. The merger is expected to be accounted for as a business combination with Rayonier as the acquirer. Additional details regarding the transaction are provided in Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

The following MD&A reflects our continuing operations as of December 31, 2025. Consequently, these disclosures do not include the impact of the PotlatchDeltic merger, which was completed as a subsequent event on January 30, 2026. Where applicable, we have specifically noted the anticipated effects of the merger or references to the combined company. For details regarding the divestiture of our New Zealand joint venture, see Note 2 — Discontinued Operations.

OUR COMPANY

We are a leading timberland real estate investment trust (“REIT”) with assets located in some of the most productive softwood timber growing regions in the United States. Our revenues, operating income and cash flows are primarily derived from the following core business segments: Southern Timber, Pacific Northwest Timber, and Real Estate. We own or lease under long-term agreements approximately 2.0 million acres of timberland and real estate in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Oregon, South Carolina, Texas and Washington.

Across our timberland management segments, we sell standing timber (primarily at auction to third parties) and delivered logs. Sales from our timber segments include all activities related to the harvesting of timber and other value-added activities such as the licensing of properties for hunting, the leasing of properties for mineral extraction and cell towers, and revenue from land-based solutions such as carbon capture and storage and solar. We believe we are the second largest publicly-traded timberland REIT and one of the largest private timberland owners in the United States. Our Real Estate business manages all property sales and seeks to maximize the value of our properties that are more valuable for development, recreational or residential uses than for growing timber, and opportunistically sells non-strategic timberlands.

INDUSTRY AND MARKET CONDITIONS

The demand for timber is directly related to the underlying demand for pulp, paper, packaging, lumber and other wood products. The majority of timber sold in our Southern Timber segment is consumed domestically. With a higher proportion of pulpwood, our Southern Timber segment relies heavily on downstream markets for pulp and paper, lumber, and to a lesser extent wood pellets. Our Pacific Northwest Timber segment relies primarily on domestic lumber customers, though log exports to Asia-Pacific countries also contribute to regional demand.

The Southern Timber and Pacific Northwest Timber segments are sensitive to the strength of U.S. lumber markets, which are closely tied to housing starts. These markets are currently impacted by a 10% ad valorem duty on softwood timber and lumber imports that took effect on October 14, 2025. This duty followed a Section 232 investigation under the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, which was authorized by Executive Order 14223, Addressing the Threat to National Security from Imports of Timber, Lumber, and Their Derivative Products (March 1, 2025). These tariffs, along with higher duties on Canadian lumber from the sixth administrative review of the anti-dumping and countervailing order on softwood lumber from Canada, and a weaker U.S. dollar, could increase domestic lumber prices and production of wood products to meet domestic demand, which could likewise increase domestic log demand and pricing. However, these gains may be partially offset by anticipated easing in Canadian duties in the second half of 2026 following the seventh administrative review of anti-dumping and countervailing duties, softer end-market demand due to increased construction costs and/or weaker overall market conditions stemming from changes in trade policy and/or broader economic uncertainty.

Pricing within our timber segments is subject to broad macroeconomic influences and local market conditions. Residential construction activity is a key macroeconomic factor. Locally, prices can fluctuate based on weather patterns, available log inventories, mill demand, and access to export markets. Currently, in our Southern Timber segment, pine stumpage realizations continue to be constrained by overall softer demand for pulpwood and sawtimber, due in part to recent mill closures. Meanwhile, the Pacific Northwest Timber segment has seen generally stable weighted-average delivered log prices due to balanced supply and demand. While Executive Order 14225, Immediate Expansion of American Timber Production (March 1, 2025) could increase the supply of available timber from federal lands, any potential impacts would likely be most prevalent in the Pacific Northwest. Further, despite the potential long-term increase in the supply of federal harvest volumes, significant logistical, legal and infrastructure-related challenges will likely limit near-term market impacts.

    We are also subject to the risk of price fluctuations in key operational costs, which primarily include logging and transportation (cut and haul). Additionally, our cost of sales is significantly influenced by the cost basis of timber sold (depletion) and real estate sold. Depletion represents the amortization of capitalized site preparation, planting and fertilization, real estate taxes, timberland lease payments, and certain payroll costs. The cost basis of real estate sold includes land costs and direct development and construction expenses for specific projects, including infrastructure, roadways, utilities, amenities and other improvements. While our timber and real estate sales are not directly subject to tariffs, to the extent that goods and/or services that we purchase in our operations are impacted by tariffs, this could lead to higher costs in our operations if vendors look to pass through any such increased costs resulting from tariffs. Other costs include amortization of capitalized road and bridge construction and software, depreciation of fixed assets and equipment, road maintenance, severance and excise taxes, fire prevention, and real estate commissions and closing costs.

Our Real Estate segment is exposed to changes in interest and mortgage rates, which could negatively impact buyer demand. However, our improved development projects, Wildlight, north of Jacksonville, Florida, and Heartwood, south of Savannah, Georgia, continue to benefit from favorable migration and demographic trends, which have so far outweighed the impacts of higher interest rates.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

    The preparation of financial statements requires us to establish accounting policies and make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. We base these estimates and assumptions on historical data, market trends, current fact patterns, and other information we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

MERCHANTABLE INVENTORY AND DEPLETION COSTS AS DETERMINED BY TIMBER HARVEST MODELS

    An annual depletion rate is established for each particular region by dividing the cost of merchantable inventory (including costs described above) by standing merchantable inventory volume. Pre-merchantable records are maintained for each planted year age class, including acres planted, stems per acre and costs of planting and tending. For more information, see Discussion of Timber Inventory and Sustainable Yield in Item 1 — Business.

    Significant assumptions and estimates are used in the recording of timber inventory and depletion costs. Factors that can impact timber volume include weather changes, losses due to natural causes, differences in actual versus estimated growth rates, and changes in the age when timber is considered merchantable. A 3% company-wide change in estimated standing merchantable inventory would have caused an estimated change of approximately $2.9 million to 2025 depletion expense.

    Merchantable standing timber inventory is estimated annually by our land information services group using industry-standard software. This calculation accounts for growth, in-growth (the annual transfer of oldest pre-merchantable age class into merchantable inventory), timberland sales and the annual harvest specific to each business unit. The age at which timber is considered merchantable is reviewed periodically and updated for changing harvest practices, future harvest age profiles and biological growth factors.

Acquisitions of timberland can also affect the depletion rate. Upon the acquisition of timberland, we make a determination whether to combine the newly-acquired merchantable timber with an existing depletion pool or to create a new pool. The determination is based on the geographic location of the new timber, the customers/markets that will be served and species mix. There were no acquisitions of timberland during 2025. As such, there was no impact on 2025 depletion rates.

REAL ESTATE COST OF SALES

Real estate cost of sales includes the cost basis of land and any timber conveyed to the buyer, real estate development costs, and closing costs. For developed residential or commercial land sales, cost of sales includes both development costs incurred and estimates of future development costs required to complete the project.

Allocating common development costs—such as infrastructure, roadways, and utilities—requires significant management judgment. Costs are allocated to each acre or lot based on its relative sales value compared to the estimated total sales value of the entire project. We reevaluate these estimates at least annually, or more frequently if warranted by changes in market conditions or project scope. Any adjustments to these estimates are allocated prospectively to the remaining units available for sale. Significant changes in our assumptions regarding total project costs or future selling prices could impact the timing and amount of cost of sales recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss). See Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for additional information.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

We review the carrying amount of long-lived assets whenever an event or a change in circumstances indicates that the carrying value of the asset or asset group may not be recoverable through future operations. If we evaluate recoverability, we are required to estimate future cash flows and residual value of the asset or asset group. The evaluation of future cash flows requires the use of assumptions regarding future economic conditions such as construction costs and sales values that may differ from actual results. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. See Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for additional information.

DEFERRED TAX ITEMS

Timber and Real Estate operations conducted within our REIT are generally not subject to U.S. income taxation. We expect variability in our effective tax rate and cash taxes to be driven primarily by operations conducted through our Taxable REIT Subsidiaries (TRS). Given the existence of Net Operating Loss (NOL) carryforwards within the TRS, the most critical element of our deferred tax reporting is the assessment of the valuation allowance against the Deferred Tax Asset (DTA) created by these NOLs. Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized in the financial statements according to the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between years. Valuation allowances are established to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. See Note 21 — Income Taxes for additional information about our unrecognized tax benefits and Note 2 — Discontinued Operations for additional information about our New Zealand operations.

ENVIRONMENTAL AND NATURAL RESOURCE DAMAGE LIABILITIES

We determine the costs of environmental remediation for areas where we have been named a potentially liable party based on evaluations of current law and existing technologies. Inherent uncertainties exist in these evaluations due to unknown environmental conditions, changing governmental regulations, evolving legal standards regarding liability, and emerging remediation technologies. At December 31, 2025, the total liability recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets for environmental contamination and Natural Resource Damages was $9.3 million. This represents management’s best estimate of remediation and restoration costs; however, we continue to monitor the cleanup process and adjust the liability as necessary. For more information, see Governmental Regulations and Environmental Matters in Item 1 — Business, Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, and Note 13 — Environmental and Natural Resource Damage Liabilities.

SOUTHERN TIMBER

    Full-year sales of $228.3 million decreased $23.3 million, or 9%, versus the prior year. Harvest volumes increased marginally to 6.84 million tons versus 6.81 million tons in the prior year, primarily attributable to improved production from drier weather in the second half of the year and increased demand for green logs as salvage operations in the Atlantic region subsided. These gains were partially offset by softer mill demand and the impact of the Large Disposition in Oklahoma completed in late 2024. Average pine sawtimber stumpage realizations decreased 8% to $26.16 per ton versus $28.41 per ton in the prior year, driven by softer demand from Southern sawmills and competing log supply from salvage timber. Average pine pulpwood stumpage realizations decreased 22% to $13.14 per ton versus $16.89 per ton in the prior year, due to the market impact of salvage volume, softer pulp mill demand, and increased supply from dry weather conditions. Overall, weighted-average stumpage realizations (including hardwood) decreased 12% to $18.83 per ton versus $21.46 per ton in the prior year, as lower pulpwood pricing was partially offset by a higher proportion of sawtimber volume.

    Operating income of $61.1 million decreased $16.8 million versus the prior year due to lower net stumpage realizations ($18.0 million), lower non-timber income ($3.6 million), and higher costs ($0.3 million), partially offset by lower depletion rates ($4.7 million) and higher volumes ($0.4 million). Full-year Adjusted EBITDA of $130.1 million was $21.2 million below the prior year.

PACIFIC NORTHWEST TIMBER

    Full-year sales of $83.6 million decreased $24.5 million, or 23%, versus the prior year. Harvest volumes decreased 23% to 933,000 tons versus 1.22 million tons in the prior year, primarily reflecting the impact of the Large Dispositions completed in the fourth quarter of 2024. Average delivered prices for domestic sawtimber increased 4% to $93.37 per ton versus $89.79 per ton in the prior year, driven by improved demand from domestic lumber mills— partially in anticipation of additional duties on Canadian lumber—and a favorable geographic mix. Average delivered pulpwood prices increased 13% to $33.65 per ton versus $29.88 per ton in the prior year, as a reduction in sawmill residuals tightened regional supply and improved market tension.

    Operating income of $1.9 million versus an operating loss of $6.3 million in the prior year was driven by lower costs ($5.9 million), lower depletion rates ($2.6 million) and higher net stumpage realizations ($1.6 million), partially offset by lower volumes ($1.9 million). Full-year Adjusted EBITDA of $23.7 million was $1.7 million below the prior year.

Table of Contents

REAL ESTATE

    Full-year sales of $172.6 million decreased $455.7 million versus the prior year, while operating income of $62.3 million decreased $272.8 million versus the prior year. Current-year operating income included a $7.0 million asset impairment charge. Prior-year sales and operating income included $495.0 million and $291.1 million, respectively, from Large Dispositions. Sales decreased primarily due to significantly lower volumes (31,455 acres sold versus 213,625 acres sold in the prior year), partially offset by higher weighted-average prices ($4,906 per acre versus $2,863 per acre in the prior year). Full-year Adjusted EBITDA of $127.1 million was $34.7 million above the prior year.

CORPORATE AND OTHER EXPENSE

    Full-year corporate and other operating expense of $42.0 million decreased $0.6 million versus the prior year, primarily due to lower compensation and benefit-related expenses. The current year included $6.3 million of costs related to the merger with PotlatchDeltic and $1.1 million of restructuring charges. In comparison, the prior year included $1.1 million of restructuring charges and $0.8 million of costs related to disposition initiatives. Restructuring charges in both periods related to our previously announced workforce optimization initiative.

INTEREST EXPENSE, NET

    Full-year interest expense of $26.3 million decreased $7.4 million versus the prior year, primarily due to lower average outstanding debt, partially offset by the gain from a terminated cash flow hedge in the prior year.

INTEREST INCOME

    Full-year interest income of $24.3 million increased $16.1 million versus the prior year, primarily due to a higher cash balance following the Large Dispositions completed in late 2024 and the sale of the Company’s New Zealand joint venture interest in the second quarter of 2025.

OTHER MISCELLANEOUS (EXPENSE) INCOME, NET

Full-year other miscellaneous expense was $6.7 million, which included $1.7 million of net costs associated with legal settlements. This compares to prior-year other miscellaneous income of $1.3 million, which included $8.0 million of net recoveries associated with legal settlements, partially offset by $6.0 million of pension settlement charges.

INCOME TAX (EXPENSE) BENEFIT

Full-year income tax expense was $0.5 million versus an income tax benefit of $1.1 million in the prior year. The increase in tax expense is primarily due to a $1.2 million tax benefit recognized in the prior year related to a pension termination and settlement.

INCOME FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Discontinued operations relate to the sale of our New Zealand joint venture, which was completed on June 30, 2025. Full-year income of $406.3 million includes a $404.4 million gain on the sale of the Company’s New Zealand joint venture interest and $1.9 million of income from operations of discontinued operations, net of tax. This compares to prior-year period income from operations of discontinued operations, net of tax of $28.1 million. See Note 2 — Discontinued Operations for additional information.

SHARE REPURCHASES

The Company repurchased approximately 2.9 million shares at an average price of $24.29 per share, or approximately $70.5 million in total during 2025. Following the mid-October merger announcement, the Company’s ability to repurchase shares was generally restricted pending the close of the transaction. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had approximately 161.4 million common shares outstanding, 1.7 million Redeemable Operating Partnership Units outstanding, and $229.5 million remaining on its current share repurchase authorization.

SOUTHERN TIMBER

    Full-year 2024 sales of $251.6 million decreased $13.5 million, or 5%, versus the prior year. Harvest volumes decreased 7% to 6.81 million tons versus 7.31 million tons in the prior year, primarily driven by wet ground conditions that constrained production, softer demand from lumber mills, and the impact of the Large Disposition completed in the fourth quarter. Average pine sawtimber stumpage realizations decreased 4% to $28.41 per ton versus $29.64 per ton in the prior year, while average pine pulpwood stumpage realizations increased 1% to $16.89 per ton versus $16.78 per ton in the prior year. The decrease in average pine sawtimber prices was primarily due to softer demand from sawmills, an unfavorable geographic mix, and the impact of salvage volume. The increase in average pine pulpwood prices was primarily driven by improved demand from pulp mills. Overall, weighted-average stumpage realizations (including hardwood) decreased 5% to $21.46 per ton versus $22.49 per ton in the prior year.

    Operating income of $77.9 million increased $1.6 million versus the prior year due to higher non-timber income ($13.2 million) and lower depletion rates ($1.1 million), partially offset by lower net stumpage realizations ($7.0 million) and lower volumes ($5.8 million). Full-year Adjusted EBITDA of $151.3 million was $5.0 million below the prior year.

PACIFIC NORTHWEST TIMBER

    Full-year 2024 sales of $108.0 million decreased $25.3 million, or 19%, versus the prior year. Harvest volumes decreased 7% to 1.22 million tons versus 1.31 million tons in the prior year, primarily due to the Large Dispositions completed in the region. Average delivered prices for domestic sawtimber decreased 8% to $89.79 per ton versus $97.71 per ton in the prior year due to a combination of weaker demand from domestic lumber mills, reduced export market tension, and an unfavorable species mix. Average delivered pulpwood prices decreased 23% to $29.88 per ton versus $38.78 per ton in the prior year due to softer mill demand in the region.

    An operating loss of $6.3 million versus an operating loss of $8.7 million in the prior year was driven by lower depletion rates ($2.9 million) and lower costs ($1.8 million), partially offset by lower net stumpage realizations ($1.1 million), lower non-timber income ($0.7 million), and lower volumes ($0.5 million). Full-year Adjusted EBITDA of $25.4 million was $2.9 million below the prior year.

REAL ESTATE

    Full-year 2024 sales of $628.3 million increased $238.3 million versus the prior year, while operating income of $335.1 million increased $178.5 million versus the prior year. Sales and operating income in the current year included $495.0 million and $291.1 million, respectively, from Large Dispositions. Prior year sales and operating income included $242.2 million and $105.1 million, respectively, from Large Dispositions. Sales increased primarily due to significantly higher volumes (213,625 acres sold versus 85,618 acres sold in the prior year), partially offset by lower weighted average prices ($2,863 per acre versus $4,392 per acre in the prior year). Full-year Adjusted EBITDA of $92.4 million was $6.9 million below the prior year.

49

Table of Contents

CORPORATE AND OTHER EXPENSE

    Full-year 2024 corporate and other operating expense of $42.6 million increased $3.0 million versus the prior year, primarily due to $0.8 million of costs related to disposition initiatives and $1.1 million of restructuring charges, as well as higher compensation and benefit related expenses. The restructuring charges were related to a workforce optimization initiative designed to reduce overhead costs following the disposition of approximately 255,000 acres of timberlands in connection with our Initiatives to Enhance Shareholder Value.

INTEREST EXPENSE, NET

    Full-year 2024 interest expense of $33.8 million decreased $11.4 million versus the prior year, primarily due to lower average outstanding debt and the gain from a terminated cash flow hedge.

INTEREST INCOME

    Full-year 2024 interest income of $8.2 million increased $6.4 million versus the prior year, primarily due to higher cash on hand as a result of the completed Large Dispositions.

OTHER MISCELLANEOUS (EXPENSE) INCOME, NET

Full-year 2024 interest and other miscellaneous income of $1.3 million decreased $17.0 million versus the prior year. The decrease versus the prior year is primarily due to lower net recoveries associated with legal settlements ($12.7 million) and higher pension settlement charges ($4.0 million).

INCOME TAX (EXPENSE) BENEFIT

Full-year 2024 income tax benefit of $1.1 million versus income tax expense of $0.3 million in the prior year is primarily due to a $1.2 million tax benefit associated with the pension termination and settlement.

INCOME FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Discontinued operations relates to the sale of our New Zealand joint venture, which was completed on June 30, 2025. Full-year 2024 income from discontinued operations was $28.1 million versus $19.2 million in the prior year. See Note 2 — Discontinued Operations for additional information.

SHARE REPURCHASES

During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company repurchased 488,017 shares at an average price of $30.10 per share, or approximately $14.7 million in total. In December 2024, the Company announced a new $300 million share repurchase authorization, replacing our previous $100 million share repurchase authorization.

OUTLOOK FOR 2026

Given the recent completion of our merger with PotlatchDeltic, we are providing the following initial outlook for the combined company for 2026 (which reflects the anticipated pro rata contribution from the PotlatchDeltic operations for January 31, 2026 through December 31, 2026):

In 2026, we expect to achieve full-year harvest volumes in our Southern Timber segment of 12.1 to 12.6 million tons—reflecting the increase in our sustainable yield due to the merger with PotlatchDeltic. We further expect that regional pine stumpage realizations will trend modestly higher from fourth-quarter levels during the year as supply-demand conditions normalize. However, we expect that full-year 2026 average pine stumpage realizations for the combined company’s Southern Timber segment will be lower than the standalone realizations for Rayonier in the prior year based on the pro forma geographic mix of the combined company.

In our Northwest Timber segment, we expect to achieve full-year harvest volumes of 2.0 to 2.3 million tons—reflecting the increase in our sustainable yield due to the merger with PotlatchDeltic. We further expect that full-year 2026 average log pricing for the combined company’s Northwest Timber segment will be higher than the standalone pricing for Rayonier in the prior year based on improving demand conditions, a higher mix of sawtimber, and the pro forma geographic mix of the combined company. However, we anticipate that the combined company’s pricing in the Northwest will have increased sensitivity to lumber pricing compared to legacy Rayonier, as a significant portion of our sawlog sales in Idaho are indexed to lumber prices.

In our Wood Products segment, our outlook reflects the upward trend in lumber prices observed at the start of the year. For the 11 months of contribution period in 2026, we expect lumber shipments to total approximately 1.1 billion board feet.

In our Real Estate segment, we anticipate a consistent level of activity in 2026, driven by a combined pipeline of rural land sales and development projects. Our expectations for a steady pace of closings are based on current transaction timing and project development stages.

Our 2026 outlook is subject to a number of variables and uncertainties, including those discussed at Item 1A — Risk Factors.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our principal source of cash is cash flow from operations, primarily the harvesting of timber and sales of real estate. As an UPREIT, our main use of cash is dividends on Rayonier Inc. common shares and distributions on Rayonier, L.P. units. We also use cash to maintain the productivity of our timberlands through replanting and silviculture. Our operations have generally produced consistent cash flow and required limited capital resources; however, acquisitions of timberlands generally require funding from external sources or Large Dispositions.

STRATEGY

We continuously evaluate our capital structure. Our strategy is to maintain a weighted-average cost of capital competitive with other timberland REITs and TIMOs, while maintaining an investment grade debt rating as well as retaining the flexibility to actively pursue capital allocation opportunities as they become available. Overall, we believe we have adequate liquidity and sources of capital to run our businesses efficiently and effectively and to maximize the value of our timberland and real estate assets under management.

On November 1, 2023, we announced an asset disposition and capital structure realignment plan (the “Plan”) targeting $1 billion of select asset sales to reduce our leverage to ≤3.0x Net Debt / Adjusted EBITDA and return capital to share and unit holders. On June 30, 2025, we completed the sale of our 77% interest in the New Zealand joint venture, which completed our asset disposition and capital structure realignment plan with $1.45 billion of dispositions in the aggregate. See Note 2 — Discontinued Operations for additional information regarding the sale.

CREDIT RATINGS

Both our ability to obtain financing and the related costs of borrowing are affected by our credit ratings, which are periodically reviewed by the rating agencies. As of December 31, 2025, our credit ratings from S&P and Moody’s were “BBB” and “Baa3,” respectively, with both agencies listing our outlook as “Stable.”

On November 4, 2022, we entered into a distribution agreement with a group of sales agents through which we could sell common shares having an aggregate sales price of up to $300 million (the “2022 ATM Program”). The 2022 ATM Program expired on November 3, 2025, with $269.7 million remaining available for issuance. No common shares were issued under the program during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

CASH PROVIDED BY OPERATING ACTIVITIES

Cash provided by operating activities decreased $4.9 million versus the prior year. This decrease was primarily driven by the timing of working capital requirements, which more than offset improved operating results. This difference reflects the impact of non-cash income recognized in the Real Estate segment, with the corresponding cash inflows expected in subsequent periods.

CASH PROVIDED BY INVESTING ACTIVITIES

Cash provided by investing activities increased $261.0 million versus the prior year. This increase was primarily driven by the net proceeds from the sale of the Company’s New Zealand joint venture interest ($688.3 million). Further contributing to the increase were lower cash outflows for timberland acquisitions ($22.8 million), lower capital expenditures from both continuing and discontinuing operations ($12.0 million and $10.6 million, respectively), higher net proceeds from property, plant and equipment sales ($4.5 million), and reduced real estate development investments ($3.4 million). These inflows were partially offset by lower proceeds from Large Dispositions ($484.8 million).

CASH USED FOR FINANCING ACTIVITIES

Cash used for financing activities decreased $106.5 million from the prior year, primarily driven by lower debt repayments ($250.0 million) and lower distributions to noncontrolling interests in consolidated affiliates ($4.0 million). These decreases were partially offset by higher dividends paid on common shares ($91.5 million), increases in share repurchases ($54.6 million). Additionally, the current year included higher distributions to noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership ($0.7 million) and higher debt issuance costs ($0.8 million).

FUTURE USES OF CASH

We expect future uses of cash to include working capital requirements, principal and interest payments on long-term debt, lease payments, capital expenditures, real estate development investments, timberland acquisitions, dividends on Rayonier Inc. common shares and distributions on Rayonier, L.P. units, repurchases of the Company’s common shares, or other expenditures as needed.

The table below reflects our significant contractual obligations and long-term uses of cash as of December 31, 2025. Notably, this table does not include the impact of the recently completed merger with PotlatchDeltic.

(b)The book value of current maturities of long-term debt is currently recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets net of an immaterial amount of deferred financing costs. See Note 8 - Debt for additional information.

(c)Projected interest payments for variable-rate debt were calculated based on outstanding principal amounts and interest rates as of December 31, 2025, excluding the impact of hedging.

(d)Excludes anticipated renewal options.

(e)Commitments — real estate projects primarily consists of payments expected to be made on our Wildlight and Heartwood development projects.

(f)Commitments — environmental remediation represents our estimate of potential liability associated with environmental contamination and Natural Resource Damages in Port Gamble, Washington. See Note 13 — Environmental and Natural Resource Damage Liabilities for additional information.

(g)Commitments — other includes other purchase obligations.

We expect to fund these requirements with a combination of existing cash balances, cash generated by operating activities, Large Dispositions, and our Revolving Credit Facility. We believe we have sufficient liquidity to meet our business requirements for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future.

EXPECTED 2026 EXPENDITURES

    Capital expenditures in 2026 are expected to range between $104 million and $108 million, excluding strategic timberland acquisitions. Capital expenditures primarily consist of seedling planting, fertilization and other silvicultural activities; maintenance and discretionary capital projects at our Wood Products facilities; property taxes; lease payments; and allocated overhead. Aside from these recurring expenditures, we continue to actively evaluate opportunistic investments.

    Real estate development investments in 2026 are expected to range between $40 million and $44 million, net of reimbursements from community development bonds. These investments are primarily related to Wildlight, our mixed-use community development project north of Jacksonville, Florida; Heartwood, our mixed-use development project in Richmond Hill just south of Savannah, Georgia; and our master-planned community at Chenal Valley in Little Rock, Arkansas.

Table of Contents

Our 2026 dividend payments on Rayonier Inc. common shares and distributions to Rayonier, L.P. unitholders are expected to be approximately $317 million and $2 million, respectively. These amounts assume a quarterly dividend rate of $0.26 per share and unit, reflecting the incremental shares issued in connection with the special dividend paid in December 2025. The estimated aggregate payments reflect the issuance of approximately 140.9 million additional common shares associated with the merger with PotlatchDeltic and assume no other material changes in the number of outstanding common shares or partnership units. Refer to the subsequent events section of Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for additional information regarding our quarterly dividend and distribution rate, as well as our merger with PotlatchDeltic.

    Future share repurchases, if any, will depend on the Company’s liquidity and cash flow, general market conditions, and other considerations, including capital allocation priorities.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We utilize off-balance sheet arrangements to provide credit support for certain suppliers and vendors, in case of their default on critical obligations, and collateral for outstanding claims under our previous workers’ compensation self-insurance programs. These arrangements consist of a standby letter of credit and surety bonds. As part of our ongoing operations, we also periodically issue guarantees to third parties. These off-balance sheet arrangements are not considered a source of liquidity or capital resources and do not expose us to material risks or material unfavorable financial impacts. See Note 14 — Guarantees for additional information on the letter of credit and surety bonds as of December 31, 2025.

SUMMARY OF GUARANTOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION

In May 2021, Rayonier, L.P. issued $450 million of 2.75% Senior Notes due 2031 (the “Senior Notes due 2031”). Rayonier TRS Holdings Inc., together with Rayonier Inc. and Rayonier Operating Company LLC agreed to irrevocably, fully and unconditionally guarantee, jointly and severally, the obligations of Rayonier, L.P. with respect to the Senior Notes due 2031. As the general partner of Rayonier, L.P., Rayonier Inc. consolidates Rayonier, L.P. and has no material assets or liabilities other than its interest in the partnership. These notes are unsecured and unsubordinated and rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness outstanding from time to time.

Rayonier, L.P. is a limited partnership in which Rayonier Inc. is the general partner. The operating subsidiaries of Rayonier, L.P. conduct all operations. Rayonier, L.P.’s most significant assets are its interest in operating subsidiaries; however, these have been excluded from the table below to eliminate intercompany transactions between the issuer and guarantors and to exclude investments in non-guarantors. Consequently, the Company’s ability to make required payments on the notes depends on the performance of the operating subsidiaries and their ability to distribute funds. There are no material restrictions on dividends from these operating subsidiaries.

The following table contains the summarized balance sheet information for the consolidated obligor group of debt issued by Rayonier, L.P. for the two years ended December 31:

LIQUIDITY FACILITIES

    See Note 8 — Debt for detailed information on our liquidity facilities and other outstanding debt, including the financial covenants associated with our Senior Notes due 2031, the 2015 Term Loan Agreement, the 2016 Incremental Term Loan Agreement, the 2021 Incremental Term Loan Agreement, and the Revolving Credit Facility.

In connection with the PotlatchDeltic merger, we entered into a $1.81 billion Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to consolidate and refinance debt. This agreement provides for an additional $200 million expansion of the Revolving Credit Facility and allows for further incremental term loans, subject to compliance with specified leverage ratios.

RESTRICTED CASH

See Note 22 — Restricted Cash for further information regarding funds deposited with a third-party intermediary and cash held in escrow.

PERFORMANCE AND LIQUIDITY INDICATORS

The discussion below is presented to enhance the reader’s understanding of our operating performance, liquidity, and ability to generate cash and satisfy rating agency and creditor requirements. This information includes two measures of financial results: Adjusted Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) and Cash Available for Distribution (“CAD”). These measures are not defined by GAAP, and the discussion of Adjusted EBITDA and CAD is not intended to conflict with or change any of the GAAP disclosures described above. Management considers these measures to be important to estimate the enterprise and shareholder values of the Company as a whole and of its core segments, and for allocating capital resources. In addition, analysts, investors and creditors use these measures when analyzing our operating performance, financial condition and cash generating ability. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure and CAD as a liquidity measure. Adjusted EBITDA and CAD as defined may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that management uses to make strategic decisions about the business and that investors can use to evaluate the operational performance of the assets under management. It excludes specific items that management believes are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating results. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, the non-cash cost of land and improved development, non-operating expense and income, income from operations of discontinued operations, gain on sale of discontinued operations, costs related to the merger with PotlatchDeltic, asset impairment charges, restructuring charges, costs related to disposition initiatives and Large Dispositions.

We reconcile Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income for the consolidated Company and to Operating Income (Loss) for the segments, as those are the most comparable GAAP measures for each.

Table of Contents

Cash Available for Distribution (CAD) is a non-GAAP measure of cash generated during a period that is available for common share dividends, distributions to Operating Partnership unitholders, common share repurchases, debt reduction, timberland acquisitions and real estate development investments. CAD is defined as cash provided by operating activities adjusted for capital spending (excluding timberland acquisitions and real estate development investments) and working capital and other balance sheet changes.

In compliance with SEC requirements for non-GAAP measures, we reduce CAD by mandatory debt repayments, resulting in a measure entitled “Adjusted CAD.” When mandatory debt repayments or other required cash settlements are incurred, CAD is reduced for such amounts; however, as no such amounts were incurred in the periods presented, Adjusted CAD is not shown. CAD and Adjusted CAD generated in any period are not necessarily indicative of the CAD that may be generated in future periods.
