EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2021 of Rayonier Inc., a North Carolina corporation, and Rayonier, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to “Rayonier” or “the Company” mean Rayonier Inc. and references to the “Operating Partnership” mean Rayonier, L.P. References to “we,” “us,” and “our” mean collectively Rayonier Inc., the Operating Partnership and entities/subsidiaries owned or controlled by Rayonier Inc. and/or the Operating Partnership.

Rayonier Inc. has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2004. The Company is structured as an umbrella partnership REIT (“UPREIT”) under which substantially all of its business is conducted through the Operating Partnership. Rayonier Inc. is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. On May 8, 2020, Rayonier, L.P. acquired Pope Resources, a Delaware Limited Partnership (“Pope Resources”) and issued approximately 4.45 million operating partnership units (“OP Units” or “Redeemable Operating Partnership Units”) of Rayonier, L.P. as partial merger consideration. These OP Units are generally considered to be economic equivalents to Rayonier common shares and receive distributions equal to the dividends paid on Rayonier common shares. See Note 2 - Merger with Pope Resources for additional information pertaining to the merger.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company owned a 97.0% interest in the Operating Partnership, with the remaining 3.0% interest owned by limited partners of the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, Rayonier Inc. has exclusive control of the day-to-day management of the Operating Partnership.

Rayonier Inc. and the Operating Partnership are operated as one business. The management of the Operating Partnership consists of the same members as the management of Rayonier Inc. As general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, Rayonier Inc. consolidates Rayonier, L.P. for financial reporting purposes, and has no material assets or liabilities other than its investment in the Operating Partnership.

We believe combining the quarterly reports of Rayonier Inc. and Rayonier, L.P. into this single report results in the following benefits:

•Strengthens investors’ understanding of Rayonier Inc. and the Operating Partnership by enabling them to view the business as a single operating unit in the same manner as management views and operates the business;

•Creates efficiencies for investors by reducing duplicative disclosures and providing a single comprehensive document; and

•Generates time and cost savings associated with the preparation of the reports when compared to preparing separate reports for each entity.

There are a few important differences between Rayonier Inc. and the Operating Partnership in the context of how Rayonier Inc. operates as a consolidated company. The Company itself does not conduct business, other than through acting as the general partner of the Operating Partnership and issuing equity or equity-related instruments from time-to-time. The Operating Partnership holds, directly or indirectly, substantially all of the Company’s assets. Likewise, all debt is incurred by the Operating Partnership or entities/subsidiaries owned or controlled by the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership conducts substantially all of the Company’s business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity.

To help investors understand the significant differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership, this report includes:

•Separate Consolidated Financial Statements for Rayonier Inc. and Rayonier, L.P.;

•A combined set of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements with separate discussions of per share and per unit information, noncontrolling interests and shareholders’ equity and partners’ capital, as applicable;

•A combined Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations which includes specific information related to each reporting entity;

Table of Contents

•A separate Part 1, Item 4. Controls and Procedures related to each reporting entity;

•A separate Part II, Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds section related to each reporting entity; and

•Separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications for each reporting entity within Part II, Item 6.

1.BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Rayonier Inc. and its subsidiaries and Rayonier, L.P. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The Rayonier Inc. and Rayonier, L.P. year-end balance sheet information was derived from audited financial statements not included herein. In the opinion of management, these financial statements and notes reflect any adjustments (all of which are normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented. These statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and supplementary data included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC (the “2020 Form 10-K”).

On May 7, 2020, Rayonier Inc. contributed its 100% ownership interest in Rayonier Operating Company LLC (the “Contribution”) to Rayonier, L.P. As a result of the Contribution, Rayonier, L.P. expressly assumed all the obligations of Rayonier Inc. with respect to the outstanding 2022 Notes and Rayonier Inc. agreed to irrevocably, fully and unconditionally guarantee jointly and severally, the obligations of Rayonier, L.P. under the Indenture, including the 2022 Notes.

On May 8, 2020, Rayonier, L.P. acquired Pope Resources and became the general partner of Pope Resources. As of March 31, 2021, the Company owned a 97.0% interest in the Operating Partnership, with the remaining 3.0% interest owned by limited partners of the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, Rayonier Inc. has exclusive control of the day-to-day management of the Operating Partnership. Please see Note 2 - Merger with Pope Resources and Note 24 - Charges for Integration and Restructuring for further information pertaining to the merger.

Pursuant to ASC 250, the Contribution was accounted for as a change in reporting entity between entities under common control and applied retrospectively for all periods as if the Contribution had been in effect since inception of common control. As a result, the effect of the change in reporting entity on Rayonier L.P.’s operating income, net income attributable to Rayonier, L.P. and per unit amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2020, assuming the change in reporting entity occurred on January 1, 2020 are presented below (in thousands, except per unit amounts):


						Three Months Ended March 31,
						2020

Operating income						—
Net income attributable to Rayonier, L.P. (a)						($3,596)
Basic earnings per unit attributable to Rayonier, L.P.						($0.03)
Diluted earnings per unit attributable to Rayonier, L.P.						($0.03)

(a) The effect of the change in net income attributable to Rayonier, L.P. is due to the interest expense and guarantee fees associated with the 2022 Notes.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), which provides optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting due to reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. During Q2 2020, we elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. We continue to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt–Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging–Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity, which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. This ASU (1) simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by removing the existing guidance in ASC 470-20, Debt: Debt with Conversion and Other Options, that requires entities to account for beneficial conversion features and cash conversion features in equity, separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock; (2) revises the scope exception from derivative accounting in ASC 815-40 for freestanding financial instruments and embedded features that are both indexed to the issuer’s own stock and classified in stockholders’ equity, by removing certain criteria required for equity classification; and (3) revises the guidance in ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, to require entities to calculate diluted earnings per share (EPS) for convertible instruments by using the if-converted method. In addition, entities must presume share settlement for purposes of calculating diluted EPS when an instrument may be settled in cash or shares. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the effects of the provisions of ASU 2020-06 on our financial statements.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

We have evaluated events occurring from March 31, 2021 to the date of issuance of these Consolidated Financial Statements for potential recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements. No events were identified that warranted recognition or disclosure.

2. MERGER WITH POPE RESOURCES

On May 8, 2020, Rayonier Inc. and Rayonier, L.P. acquired Pope Resources and became the general partner of Pope Resources. Pope Resources was a master limited partnership that primarily owned and managed timberlands in the U.S. Pacific Northwest. Pope Resources also managed and co-invested in three private equity timber funds and developed and sold real estate properties. For additional information about the merger, see Note 2 - Merger with Pope Resources in the 2020 Form 10-K.

The total purchase price was as follows (in millions):



Cash consideration			$247,318
Equity consideration			172,640
Redeemable Operating Partnership Unit consideration			106,752
Fair value of Pope Resources units held by us (a)			11,211
Total purchase price			$537,921

(a)Based on the closing price of Pope Resources units on the NASDAQ on May 7, 2020.

(Dollar amounts in thousands unless otherwise stated)

We recognized approximately $2.5 million of merger-related costs that were expensed during first quarter of 2020. See Note 24 — Charges for Integration and Restructuring for descriptions of the components of merger-related costs.

The acquisition of Pope Resources has been accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805, Business Combinations, (“ASC 805”). Under ASC 805, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination must be recorded at their fair value as of the acquisition date. Recorded fair valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed related to the acquisition of Pope Resources is preliminary and will be completed as soon as practicable, but no later than one year after the consummation of the transaction. Pursuant to ASC 805, the financial statements will not be retrospectively adjusted for any provisional amount changes that occur in subsequent periods. Rather, we will recognize any provisional amount adjustments during the reporting period in which the adjustments are determined. We will also be required to 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 the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date.

As a result of refinements to the preliminary purchase price allocation, higher and better use timberlands increased by approximately $8.2 million. This includes development properties in the town of Port Gamble, Washington, development projects in Gig Harbor, Kingston, and Bremerton, Washington and various other assets.

The preliminary estimate of fair value required the use of significant assumptions and estimates. Critical estimates included, but were not limited to, future expected cash flows, including projected revenues and expenses, and the applicable discount rates. These estimates were based on assumptions that we believe to be reasonable; however, actual results may differ from these estimates. The assessment of fair value is preliminary and is based on information that was available to management at the time the consolidated financial statements were prepared. Those estimates and assumptions 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). The most significant open items necessary to complete are related to timberlands, property, plant and equipment, higher and better use timberlands and real estate development investments, long-term debt instruments, environmental liabilities, intangible assets and tax related matters.

The preliminary fair value estimates were generally based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market and thus represent Level 3 measurements as defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, (“ASC 820”) with the exception of certain long-term debt instruments assumed in the merger that can be valued using observable market inputs and are therefore Level 2 measurements. See Note 11 — Fair Value Measurements for further information on the fair value hierarchy.

The following summarizes the fair value methodology utilized in our preliminary fair value estimates for significant assets and liabilities:

Income Approach — Estimates fair value for an asset based on the present value of cash flow projected to be generated by the asset. Projected cash flows are discounted at rates of return that reflect the relative risk of achieving the cash flows and the time value of money. This approach was primarily used to value acquired timber in both our Pacific Northwest and Timber Funds segment.

Cost Approach — Estimates value by determining the current cost of replacing an asset with another of equivalent economic utility. This approach was primarily used for property and equipment.

Market Approach — Estimates fair value for an asset based on values of recent comparable transactions. This approach was primarily used to value timberlands, higher and better use timberlands and real estate developments investments, certain land and building assets and long-term debt instruments.

(a)Other non-current liabilities includes a $2.6 million deferred income tax liability resulting from the preliminary fair value adjustment to Pope Resources’ assets and liabilities.

These estimated fair values are preliminary in nature and subject to adjustments, which could be material. We have not identified any material unrecorded pre-merger contingencies where the related asset, liability or impairment is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Our valuations will be finalized when certain information arranged to be obtained has been received and our review of that information has been completed. Prior to the finalization of the purchase price allocation, if information becomes available that would indicate it is probable that such events had occurred and the amounts can be reasonably estimated, such items will be included in the final purchase price allocation.

3. SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

Sales between operating segments are made based on estimated fair market value, and intercompany sales, purchases and profits (losses) are eliminated in consolidation. We evaluate financial performance based on segment operating income (loss) and Adjusted Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”). Asset information is not reported by segment, as we do not produce asset information by segment internally.

Operating income as presented in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income is equal to segment income. Certain income (loss) items in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income are not allocated to segments. These items, which include interest income (expense), miscellaneous income (expense) and income tax expense, are not considered by management to be part of segment operations and are included under “unallocated interest expense and other.”

The following tables summarize the segment information for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
SALES		2021	2020
Southern Timber		$51,677	$52,982
Pacific Northwest Timber		41,522	31,075
New Zealand Timber		57,579	37,538
Timber Funds (a)		14,939	—
Real Estate (b)		10,504	118,564
Trading		16,665	18,984

Intersegment Eliminations (c)		(1,439)	(13)
Total		$191,447	$259,130

(a)The three months ended March 31, 2021 includes $11.9 million of sales attributable to noncontrolling interests in Timber Funds.

(b)The three months ended March 31, 2020 includes $116.0 million from a Large Disposition. Large Dispositions are defined as transactions involving the sale of timberland that exceed $20 million in size and do not have a demonstrable premium relative to timberland value.

(c)Primarily consists of the elimination of timberland investment management fees paid to us by the timber funds which are initially recognized as sales and cost of sales within the Timber Funds segment, as well as log marketing fees paid to our Trading segment from our Southern Timber and Pacific Northwest Timber segments for marketing log export sales.

4. REVENUE

PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS

We recognize revenue when control of promised goods or services (“performance obligations”) is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration expected in exchange for those goods or services (“transaction price”). We generally satisfy performance obligations within a year of entering into a contract and therefore have applied the disclosure exemption found under ASC 606-10-50-14. Unsatisfied performance obligations as of March 31, 2021 are primarily due to advances on stumpage contracts and unearned license revenue. These performance obligations are expected to be satisfied within the next twelve months. We generally collect payment within a year of satisfying performance obligations and therefore have elected not to adjust revenues for a financing component.

CONTRACT BALANCES

The timing of revenue recognition, invoicing and cash collections results in accounts receivable and deferred revenue (contract liabilities) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Accounts receivable are recorded when we have an unconditional right to consideration for completed performance under the contract. Contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of performance under the contract. Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue as (or when) we perform under the contract.

The following table summarizes revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of each year:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
		2021	2020
Revenue recognized from contract liability balance at the beginning of the year (a)		$5,920	$6,425

(a) Revenue recognized was primarily from hunting licenses and the use of advances on pay-as-cut timber sales.

6. NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS IN CONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES

Matariki Forestry Group

We maintain a 77% controlling financial interest in Matariki Forestry Group (the “New Zealand subsidiary”), a joint venture that owns or leases approximately 417,000 legal acres of New Zealand timberland. Accordingly, we consolidate the New Zealand subsidiary’s balance sheet and results of operations. The portions of the consolidated financial position and results of operations attributable to the New Zealand subsidiary’s 23% noncontrolling interests are reflected as an adjustment to income in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income under the caption “Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated affiliates.” Rayonier New Zealand Limited (“RNZ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary, serves as the manager of the New Zealand subsidiary.

The following table sets forth the income attributable to the New Zealand subsidiary’s noncontrolling interests:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
		2021	2020
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the New Zealand subsidiary		$2,638	$567

ORM Timber Fund II, Inc. (Fund II), ORM Timber Fund III LLC (Fund III), and ORM Timber Fund IV LLC. (Fund IV) (Collectively, the “Funds”)

We are the manager of three private equity timber funds, Fund II, Fund III, and Fund IV, and maintain ownership interests in the Funds of 20%, 5%, and 15%, respectively. Based upon an analysis under the variable interest entity guidance, we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the Funds’ economic success. Therefore, we are considered the primary beneficiary and are required under ASC 810 — Consolidation to consolidate the Funds. Income attributed to third-party investors is reflected as an adjustment to income in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income under the caption “Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated affiliates.”

The following table sets forth the income attributable to the Funds’ noncontrolling interests:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
		2021	2020
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Funds		$1,076	—

Prior to the merger with Pope Resources, the Funds were formed by ORM LLC for the purpose of generating a return on investment through the acquisition, management, value enhancement and sale of timberland properties. Each Fund is organized to operate for a specified term from the end of its respective investment period: 10 years for each of Fund II and Fund III, and 15 years for Fund IV. Fund II is scheduled to terminate in March 2023, Fund III is scheduled to terminate in December 2025 and Fund IV is scheduled to terminate in January 2035. The obligations of each of the Funds do not have any recourse to the Company or the Operating Partnership.

Ferncliff Investors

We maintain an ownership interest in Ferncliff Investors, a real estate joint venture entity. In 2017, Ferncliff Management and Ferncliff Investors were formed for the purpose of raising capital from third parties to invest in an unconsolidated real estate joint venture entity, Bainbridge Landing LLC, which is developing a five-acre parcel on Bainbridge Island, Washington into a multi-family community containing apartments and townhomes. Ferncliff Management is the manager and 33.33% owner of Ferncliff Investors, with the remaining ownership interest in Ferncliff Investors held by third-party investors. Ferncliff Investors holds a 50% interest in Bainbridge Landing LLC, the joint venture entity that owns and is developing the property.

Based upon an analysis under the variable interest entity guidance, we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the joint venture’s economic success. Therefore, we are considered the primary beneficiary and are required under ASC 810 — Consolidation to consolidate Ferncliff Investors. The obligations of Ferncliff Investors do not have any recourse to the Company or the Operating Partnership.

Bainbridge Landing LLC is considered a voting interests entity. Ferncliff Investors accounts for its interest in the joint venture entity under the equity method because neither it nor the other member can exercise control over Bainbridge Landing LLC.

The Ferncliff Investors joint venture agreement provides for liquidation rights and distribution priorities that are disproportionate to member’s ownership interest. Due to the complex nature of cash distributions to members, net income of the joint venture is allocated to members, including us, using the Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value (HLBV) method. Under the HLBV method, Ferncliff Investors income or loss is allocated to the members based on the period change in each member’s claim on the book value of net assets, excluding capital contributions and distributions made during the period.

The following table sets forth the income attributable to Ferncliff Investors’ noncontrolling interests:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
		2021	2020
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in Ferncliff Investors		$129	—

NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS IN THE OPERATING PARTNERSHIP

Noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership relate to the third-party ownership of Redeemable Operating Partnership Units. Net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership is computed by applying the weighted average Redeemable Operating Partnership Units outstanding during the period as a percentage of the weighted average total units outstanding to the Operating Partnership’s net income for the period. If a noncontrolling unitholder redeems a unit for a registered common share of Rayonier or cash, the noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership will be reduced and the Company’s share in the Operating Partnership will be increased by the fair value of each security at the time of redemption.

The following table sets forth the Company’s noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership:


						Three Months Ended March 31, 2021

Beginning noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership						$130,121

Adjustment of noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership						11,867
Conversions of Redeemable Operating Partnership Units to Common Shares						(4,715)
Net Income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership						341

The Fund III Mortgages Payable to NWFCS contain a requirement to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of 1.5:1, minimum working capital of $500,000, and a loan-to-value ratio of less than 50%, with the denominator defined as fair market value.

Both Timber Funds are in compliance with their respective debt covenants as of March 31, 2021.

10. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

We are exposed to market risk related to potential fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. We use derivative financial instruments to mitigate the financial impact of exposure to these risks.

Accounting for derivative financial instruments is governed by ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, (“ASC 815”). In accordance with ASC 815, we record our derivative instruments at fair value as either assets or liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes in the instruments’ fair value are accounted for based on their intended use. Gains and losses on derivatives that are designated and qualify for cash flow hedge accounting are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCI”) and reclassified into earnings when the hedged transaction materializes. Gains and losses on derivatives that are designated and qualify for net investment hedge accounting are recorded as a component of AOCI and will not be reclassified into earnings until the investment is partially or completely liquidated. The changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments and those which are no longer effective as hedging instruments, are recognized immediately in earnings.

FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE AND OPTION CONTRACTS

The functional currency of Rayonier New Zealand Limited, and the New Zealand subsidiary is the New Zealand dollar. The New Zealand subsidiary is exposed to foreign currency risk on export sales and ocean freight payments which are mainly denominated in U.S. dollars. The New Zealand subsidiary typically hedges 50% to 90% of its estimated foreign currency exposure with respect to the following twelve months forecasted sales and purchases, less distributions, and up to 75% of the forward 12 to 18 months. Additionally, the New Zealand subsidiary will occasionally hedge up to 50% of its estimated foreign currency exposure with respect to the following 18 to 48 months forecasted sales and purchases, less distributions, when the New Zealand dollar is at a cyclical low versus the U.S. dollar. Foreign currency exposure from the New Zealand subsidiary’s trading operations is typically hedged based on the following three months forecasted sales and purchases. As of March 31, 2021, foreign currency exchange contracts and foreign currency option contracts had maturity dates through September 2022 and August 2021, respectively.

Foreign currency exchange and option contracts hedging foreign currency risk on export sales and ocean freight payments qualify for cash flow hedge accounting. We may de-designate these cash flow hedge relationships in advance or at the occurrence of the forecasted transaction. The portion of gains or losses on the derivative instrument previously accumulated in other comprehensive loss for de-designated hedges remains in accumulated other comprehensive loss until the forecasted transaction affects earnings. Changes in the value of derivative instruments after de-designation are recorded in earnings.

INTEREST RATE SWAPS

We are exposed to cash flow interest rate risk on our variable-rate Term Credit Agreement, Incremental Term Loan Agreement and 2020 Incremental Term Loan Facility and use variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps to hedge this exposure. For these derivative instruments, we report the gains/losses from the fluctuations in the fair market value of the hedges in AOCI and reclassify them to earnings as interest expense in the same period in which the hedged interest payments affect earnings.

The following table contains information on the outstanding interest rate swaps as of March 31, 2021:


Outstanding Interest Rate Swaps (a)
Date Entered Into	Term	Notional Amount	Related Debt Facility	Fixed Rate of Swap (b)		Bank Margin on Debt		Total Effective Interest Rate (c)
August 2015	9 years	$170,000	Term Credit Agreement	2.20	%	1.60	%	3.80	%
August 2015	9 years	180,000	Term Credit Agreement	2.35	%	1.60	%	3.95	%

June 2020	10 years	250,000	2020 Incremental Term Loan	1.10	%	1.85	%	2.95	%

(a) All interest rate swaps have been designated as interest rate cash flow hedges and qualify for hedge accounting.

(b) The interest rate swap entered in June 2020, was an off-market derivative, meaning it contained an embedded financing element, which the counterparties recovered through an incremental charge in the fixed rate over what would have been charged for an at-market swap.

TREASURY LOCKS

During the first quarter of 2020, we entered into three treasury lock agreements, which were designated and qualified as cash flow hedges. Prior to expiration, we de-designated and settled the treasury locks by converting them into interest rate swap lock agreements (discussed below). To the extent we de-designate or terminate a cash flow hedging relationship and the associated hedged item continues to exist, any unrealized gain or loss of the cash flow hedge at the time of de-designation remains in accumulated other comprehensive loss and is amortized using the straight-line method through interest expense over the remaining life of the hedged item. As of March 31, 2021, there was $18.8 million recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss in connection with the settled treasury locks which will be reclassified to earnings through interest expense over the life of the anticipated issued debt. For additional information regarding the expired treasury lock agreements, see Note 16 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities in our 2020 Form 10-K.

INTEREST RATE SWAP LOCKS

Upon de-designation, we converted the above treasury lock agreements to interest rate swap lock agreements, which were designated and qualified as cash flow hedges. Prior to expiration, we de-designated and partially cash settled $11.1 million of the interest rate swap locks and converted them into interest rate swap agreements. To the extent we de-designate or terminate a cash flow hedging relationship and the associated hedged item continues to exist, any unrealized gain or loss of the cash flow hedge at the time of de-designation remains in accumulated other comprehensive loss and is amortized using the straight-line method through interest expense over the remaining life of the hedged item. As of March 31, 2021, there was $1.3 million recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss in connection with settled interest rate swap locks which will be reclassified to earnings through interest expense over the life of the anticipated issued debt. For additional information regarding the expired interest rate swap lock agreements, see Note 16 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities in our 2020 Form 10-K.

FORWARD-STARTING INTEREST RATE SWAPS

We are exposed to cash flow interest rate risk on anticipated debt issuances and use forward-starting interest rate swap agreements to hedge against changes in future cash flows resulting from changes in interest rates from the trade date through the anticipated issuance date. For these derivative instruments, we report the gains/losses from the fluctuations in the fair market value of the hedges in AOCI and reclassify them to earnings as interest expense in the same period in which the hedged interest payments affect earnings.

11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

A three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value was established in the Accounting Standards Codification as follows:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The following table presents the carrying amount and estimated fair values of our financial instruments as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, using market information and what we believe to be appropriate valuation methodologies under GAAP:


	March 31, 2021			December 31, 2020
Asset (Liability) (a)	Carrying Amount	Fair Value		Carrying Amount	Fair Value
		Level 1	Level 2		Level 1	Level 2
Cash and cash equivalents, excluding Timber Funds	$77,946	$77,946	—	$80,454	$80,454	—
Cash and cash equivalents, Timber Funds	4,674	4,674	—	4,053	4,053	—
Restricted cash (b)	475	475	—	2,975	2,975	—


Long-term debt, excluding Timber Funds (c)	(1,299,433)	—	(1,304,371)	(1,300,336)	—	(1,313,631)
Long-term debt, Timber Funds (c)	(59,967)	—	(60,207)	(60,179)	—	(60,474)
Interest rate swaps (d)	(19,356)	—	(19,356)	(51,580)	—	(51,580)

Forward-starting interest rate swaps (d)	18,690	—	18,690	(12,529)	—	(12,529)
Foreign currency exchange contracts (d)	3,166	—	3,166	6,018	—	6,018
Foreign currency option contracts (d)	585	—	585	1,515	—	1,515


Noncontrolling Interests in the Operating Partnership (e)	137,990	137,990	—	130,121	130,121	—

(a)We did not have Level 3 assets or liabilities at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

(b)Restricted cash represents cash held in escrow. See Note 22 — Restricted Cash for additional information.

(c)The carrying amount of long-term debt is presented net of capitalized debt costs on non-revolving debt. See Note 9 — Debt for additional information.

(d)See Note 10 — Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities for information regarding the Consolidated Balance Sheets classification of our derivative financial instruments.

(e)Noncontrolling Interests in the Operating Partnership is neither an asset or liability and is classified as temporary equity in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. This relates to the ownership of Rayonier, L.P. units by various individuals and entities other than the Company.

We use the following methods and assumptions in estimating the fair value of our financial instruments:

Cash and cash equivalents and Restricted cash — The carrying amount is equal to fair market value.

Debt — The fair value of fixed rate debt is based upon quoted market prices for debt with similar terms and maturities. The variable rate debt adjusts with changes in the market rate, therefore the carrying value approximates fair value.

Interest rate swap agreements — The fair value of interest rate contracts is determined by discounting the expected future cash flows, for each instrument, at prevailing interest rates.

Foreign currency exchange contracts — The fair value of foreign currency exchange contracts is determined by a mark-to-market valuation, which estimates fair value by discounting the difference between the contracted forward price and the current forward price for the residual maturity of the contract using a risk-free interest rate.

(Dollar amounts in thousands unless otherwise stated)

Foreign currency option contracts — The fair value of foreign currency option contracts is based on a mark-to-market calculation using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Noncontrolling Interests in the Operating Partnership — The fair value of noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership is determined based on the period-end closing price of Rayonier Inc. common shares.

12. COMMITMENTS

	Environmental Remediation (a)	Development Projects (b)	Commitments (c)	Total

(b)Primarily consisting of payments expected to be made on our Wildlight and Richmond Hill development projects.

(c)Commitments include payments expected to be made on financial instruments (foreign exchange contracts, interest rate swaps and forward-starting interest rate swaps) and other purchase obligations.

13. CONTINGENCIES

We have been named as a defendant in various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. While we have procured reasonable and customary insurance covering risks normally occurring in connection with our businesses, we have in certain cases retained some risk through the operation of large deductible insurance plans, primarily in the areas of executive risk, property, automobile and general liability. These pending lawsuits and claims, either individually or in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flow.

14. ENVIRONMENTAL AND NATURAL RESOURCE DAMAGE LIABILITIES

Various federal and state environmental laws in the states in which we operate place cleanup or restoration liability on the current and former owners of affected real estate. These laws are often a source of “strict liability,” meaning that an owner or operator need not necessarily have caused, or even been aware of, the release of contaminated materials. Similarly, there are certain environmental laws that allow state, federal, and tribal trustees (collectively, the “Trustees”) to bring suit against property owners to recover damage for injuries to natural resources. Like the liability that attaches to current property owners in the cleanup context, liability for natural resource damages (“NRD”) can attach to a property simply because an injury to natural resources resulted from releases of contaminated materials on or from the owner’s property, regardless of culpability for the release. For additional information, see Note 13 - Environmental and Natural Resource Damage Liabilities in the 2020 Form 10-K.

Changes in environmental and NRD liabilities from December 31, 2020 to March 31, 2021 are shown below:


			Port Gamble, WA






Non-current portion at December 31, 2020			$10,615
Plus: Current portion			1,026
Total Balance at December 31, 2020			11,641

Total Balance at March 31, 2021			11,530
Less: Current portion			(930)
Non-current portion at March 31, 2021			$10,600

These estimates were based on assumptions that we believe to be reasonable; however, actual results may differ from these estimates. See Note 2 - Merger with Pope Resources for information regarding our preliminary estimates of fair value. It is expected that the upland mill site cleanup and NRD restoration will occur over the next two to three years, while the monitoring of Port Gamble Bay, mill site and landfills will continue for an additional 10 to 15 years. NRD costs are subject to change as the scope of the restoration projects become more clearly defined. It is reasonably possible that these components of the liability may increase as the project progresses. Management continues to monitor the Port Gamble cleanup process and will make adjustments as needed. Should any future circumstances result in a change to the estimated cost of the project, we will record an appropriate adjustment to the liability in the period it becomes known and when we can reasonably estimate the amount. For further information on the timing and amount of future payments related to our environmental remediation liabilities, see Note 12 - Commitments.

15. GUARANTEES

We provide financial guarantees as required by creditors, insurance programs, and various governmental agencies.

As of March 31, 2021, the following financial guarantees were outstanding:

Financial Commitments (a)

Maximum Potential

(a)We have not recorded any liabilities for these financial commitments in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The guarantees are not subject to measurement, as the guarantees are dependent on our own performance.

(b)Surety bonds are issued primarily to secure performance obligations related to various operational activities, to provide collateral for our Wildlight development project in Nassau County, Florida and in connection with pending and completed sales from the Harbor Hill project in Gig Harbor, Washington. These surety bonds expire at various dates during 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 and are expected to be renewed as required.

16. HIGHER AND BETTER USE TIMBERLANDS AND REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT INVESTMENTS

We continuously assess potential alternative uses of our timberlands, as some properties may become more valuable for development, residential, recreation or other purposes. We periodically transfer, via a sale or contribution from the real estate investment trust (“REIT”) entities to taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”), higher and better use (“HBU”) timberlands to enable land-use entitlement, development or marketing activities. We also acquire HBU properties in connection with timberland acquisitions. These properties are managed as timberlands until sold or developed. While the majority of HBU sales involve rural and recreational land, we also selectively pursue various land-use entitlements on certain properties for residential, commercial and industrial development in order to enhance the long-term value of such properties. For selected development properties, we also invest in targeted infrastructure improvements, such as roadways and utilities, to accelerate the marketability and improve the value of such properties.

Changes in higher and better use timberlands and real estate development investments from December 31, 2020 to March 31, 2021 are shown below:


	Higher and Better Use Timberlands and Real Estate Development Investments
	Land and Timber	Development Investments	Total

Non-current portion at March 31, 2021	$87,926	$23,389	$111,315

(a)The current portion of Higher and Better Use Timberlands and Real Estate Development Investments is recorded in Inventory. See Note 17 — Inventory for additional information.

(b)Capitalized real estate development investments include $0.1 million of capitalized interest and $2.3 million of parcel real estate development investments. Parcel real estate development investments represent investments made for specific lots and/or commercial parcels that are currently under contract or expected to be ready for market within a year.

(c)Reflects measurement period adjustments on HBU properties acquired in the merger with Pope Resources. The estimated fair value of HBU properties acquired in the merger is approximately $34.7 million. This includes development properties in the town of Port Gamble, Washington, development projects in Gig Harbor, Kingston, and Bremerton, Washington and various other assets. See Note 2 - Merger with Pope Resources for additional information.

19. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

We have one qualified non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering a portion of our employees and an unfunded plan that provides benefits in excess of amounts allowable under current tax law in the qualified plan. Both plans are closed to new participants. Effective December 31, 2016, we froze benefits for all employees participating in the pension plan. In lieu of the pension plan, we provide those employees with an enhanced 401(k) plan match. Employee benefit plan liabilities are calculated using actuarial estimates and management assumptions. These estimates are based on historical information, along with certain assumptions about future events. Changes in assumptions, as well as changes in actual experience, could cause the estimates to change.

We are not required to make mandatory 2021 pension contributions due to our plan’s improved funding status and have made no pension contribution payments during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

The net pension and postretirement benefit (credits) costs that have been recorded are shown in the following table:


Components of Net Periodic Benefit (Credit) Cost	Income Statement Location	Pension		Postretirement

20. INCOME TAXES

Rayonier is a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code and therefore generally does not pay U.S. federal or state income tax. As of March 31, 2021, Rayonier owns a 97.0% interest in the Operating Partnership and conducts substantially all of its timberland operations through the Operating Partnership. The taxable income or loss generated by the Operating Partnership is passed through and reported to its unit holders (including the Company) on a Schedule K-1 for inclusion in each unitholder’s income tax return. Certain operations, including log trading and certain real estate activities, such as the entitlement, development and sale of HBU properties, are conducted through our TRS. The TRS subsidiaries are subject to United States federal and state corporate income tax. The New Zealand timber operations are conducted by the New Zealand subsidiary, which is subject to corporate-level tax at 28% in New Zealand and is treated as a partnership for U.S. income tax purposes.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

The Company’s tax expense is principally related to corporate-level tax in New Zealand and non-resident withholding tax on repatriation of earnings from New Zealand. The following table contains the income tax expense recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income:

22. RESTRICTED CASH

Restricted cash includes cash balances held in escrow as collateral for certain contractual obligations related to our Richmond Hill development project as well as cash held in escrow for real estate sales. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had $0.5 million and $3.0 million, respectively, of restricted cash held in escrow. In addition, in order to qualify for like-kind exchange (“LKE”) treatment, the proceeds from real estate sales must be deposited with a third-party intermediary. These proceeds are accounted for as restricted cash until a suitable replacement property is acquired. In the event LKE purchases are not completed, the proceeds are returned to us after 180 days and reclassified as available cash. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had no proceeds from real estate sales classified as restricted cash which were deposited with an LKE intermediary.

The following table contains the amounts of restricted cash recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2021:


			March 31, 2021

Restricted cash held in escrow			$475

Total restricted cash shown in the Consolidated Balance Sheets			475
Cash and cash equivalents			82,620
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash shown in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows			$83,095

23. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

Assets held for sale is composed of properties under contract and expected to be sold within 12 months that also meet the other relevant held-for sale criteria in accordance with ASC 360-10-45-9. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the basis in properties meeting this classification was $7.9 million and $3.4 million, respectively. Since the basis in these properties was less than the fair value, including costs to sell, no impairment was recognized.

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, 2020 (the “2020 Form 10-K”) and information contained in our subsequent reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

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 business strategies, including the recent acquisition of Pope Resources, expected harvest schedules, timberland acquisitions and dispositions, the anticipated benefits of our business strategies, 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” 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 2020 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.

Table of Contents

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 and New Zealand. We invest in timberlands and actively manage them to provide current income and attractive long-term returns to our shareholders. 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, Pacific Northwest Timber, New Zealand Timber, Timber Funds, Real Estate, and Trading. As of March 31, 2021, we owned or leased under long-term agreements approximately 2.7 million acres of timberlands located in the U.S. South (1.75 million acres), U.S. Pacific Northwest (507,000 acres) and New Zealand (417,000 gross acres or 296,000 net plantable acres). We also act as the managing member in a private equity timber fund business with three funds comprising approximately 141,000 acres. On a “look-through basis,” our ownership in the timber fund business equates to approximately 17,000 acres.

SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Southern Timber, Pacific Northwest Timber, New Zealand Timber, and Timber Funds segments include all activities related to the harvesting of timber and other non-timber income activities, such as the licensing of properties for hunting, the leasing of properties for mineral extraction and cell towers, and carbon credit sales. Our New Zealand operations are conducted by Matariki Forestry Group, a joint venture (the “New Zealand subsidiary”), in which we maintain a 77% ownership interest. The Timber Funds segment operations are managed by ORM LLC, a subsidiary acquired in the merger with Pope Resources. We own approximately 20% of Fund II, 5% of Fund III and 15% of Fund IV. When referring to our proportionate ownership share of the Timber Funds segment, we will refer to the sums as “look-through” totals. See Note 6 - Noncontrolling Interests for additional information regarding our noncontrolling interests in the New Zealand Timber and Timber Funds segments.

The Real Estate segment includes all U.S. and New Zealand land or leasehold sales disaggregated into six sales categories: Improved Development, Unimproved Development, Rural, Timberland & Non-Strategic, Conservation Easement and Large Dispositions. It also includes residential and commercial lease activity, primarily in the town of Port Gamble, Washington.

The Trading segment primarily reflects log trading activities in New Zealand and Australia conducted by our New Zealand subsidiary. Our Trading segment activities include an export services joint venture with a third-party forest manager in which Matariki Forests Trading Ltd maintains a 50% ownership interest. The Trading segment complements the New Zealand Timber segment by providing added market intelligence, increasing the scale of export operations and achieving cost savings that directly benefit the New Zealand Timber segment. This additional market intelligence also benefits our Southern and Pacific Northwest export log marketing.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

For a full description of our environmental matters, see Item 1 - “Business” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 and comprehensive environmental and carbon reports located at our Responsible Stewardship webpage.

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 significant 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, and to a lesser extent wood pellet markets. Our Pacific Northwest Timber and Timber Funds segments rely primarily on domestic customers but also export a significant volume of timber, particularly to China. The Southern, Pacific Northwest Timber and Timber Funds segments rely on the strength of U.S. lumber markets as well as underlying housing starts. Our New Zealand Timber segment sells timber to domestic New Zealand wood products mills and also exports a significant portion of its volume to markets in China, South Korea and India. In addition to market dynamics in the Pacific Rim, the New Zealand Timber segment is subject to foreign exchange fluctuations, which can impact the operating results of the segment in U.S. dollar terms.

Table of Contents

As the current novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic continues to evolve, the expected duration and the extent of economic disruption it may ultimately cause remain uncertain. Local, state and national governments continue to evaluate policies and restrictions in order to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. Government-mandated shutdowns or shelter-in-place orders in markets in which we operate could negatively impact our results. Further, prolonged periods of lower overall business activity as a result of COVID-19 could cause significant damage to the underlying economy, which would likely impact U.S. timber markets. We will continue to monitor COVID-19 and its impact on the markets in which we operate going forward.

We are also subject to the risk of price fluctuations in our major cost components. The primary components of our cost of sales are the cost basis of timber sold (depletion), the cost basis of real estate sold and logging and transportation costs (cut and haul). Depletion includes the amortization of capitalized costs (site preparation, planting and fertilization, real estate taxes, timberland lease payments and certain payroll costs). Other costs include amortization of capitalized costs related to 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.

For additional information on market conditions impacting our business, see Results of Operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base these estimates and assumptions on historical data and trends, current fact patterns, expectations and other sources of information we believe are reasonable. 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 2020 Form 10-K.

DISCUSSION OF TIMBER INVENTORY AND SUSTAINABLE YIELD

See Item 1 — Business — Discussion of Timber Inventory and Sustainable Yield in our 2020 Form 10-K.

SOUTHERN TIMBER

First quarter sales of $51.7 million decreased $1.3 million, or 2%, versus the prior year period primarily due to lower harvest volumes, partially offset by higher average net stumpage prices and higher pipeline easement revenue. Harvest volumes decreased 18% to 1.51 million tons versus 1.84 million tons in the prior year period. The decline in volume was largely due to the timing of harvest operations as compared to the prior year, as well as operational disruptions attributable to wet ground conditions in Georgia and winter snowstorms in the Gulf region. Average pine sawtimber stumpage prices increased 3% to $27.51 per ton versus $26.67 per ton in the prior year period. Robust demand from sawmills and growing demand from the export market coupled with constricted supply due to weather conditions translated into favorable sawtimber pricing across our markets. Average pine pulpwood stumpage prices increased 7% to $17.10 per ton versus $16.05 per ton in the prior year period due to favorable geographic mix as well as tighter supply due to adverse weather conditions. Overall, weighted-average stumpage prices (including hardwood) increased 7% to $21.35 per ton versus $19.91 per ton in the prior year period. Operating income of $17.3 million increased $2.3 million versus the prior year period due to higher net stumpage prices ($2.2 million), higher non-timber income ($2.2 million), lower costs ($0.6 million) and lower depletion rates ($0.6 million), partially offset by lower volumes ($3.4 million).

First quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $31.7 million was 5%, or $1.6 million, below the prior year period.

PACIFIC NORTHWEST TIMBER

First quarter sales of $41.5 million increased $10.4 million, or 34%, versus the prior year period. Harvest volumes increased 13% to 536,000 tons versus 476,000 tons in the prior year period, primarily due to incremental volume from the Pope Resources acquisition. Average delivered sawtimber prices increased 21% to $90.98 per ton versus $75.40 per ton in the prior year period, as exceptionally strong domestic lumber markets drove improved demand and pricing. Average delivered pulpwood prices decreased 23% to $29.36 per ton versus $38.11 per ton in the prior year period, as higher lumber mill residuals resulted in an increased supply of competing wood chip residuals. Operating income of $1.3 million improved $2.3 million versus the prior year period due to higher net stumpage prices ($5.8 million), higher non-timber income ($0.8 million) and volume/mix changes ($0.3 million), partially offset by higher depletion rates ($4.3 million) and higher overhead and other costs ($0.4 million).

First quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $17.6 million was 81%, or $7.9 million, above the prior year period.

NEW ZEALAND TIMBER

First quarter sales of $57.6 million increased $20.1 million, or 53%, versus the prior year period, as higher harvest volumes and log prices were partially offset by deferred carbon credit sales. Harvest volumes increased 25% to 599,000 tons versus 481,000 tons in the prior year period. The increase in harvest volumes was driven primarily by a normalized level of activity in the first quarter versus a prior year period constrained by COVID-19 disruptions. Average delivered prices for export sawtimber increased 28% to $121.65 per ton versus $94.86 per ton in the prior year period, while average delivered prices for domestic sawtimber increased 16% to $80.95 per ton versus $69.97 per ton in the prior year period. The increase in export sawtimber prices was driven primarily by stronger demand from China, as the prior year period was significantly impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak.

Improved export pricing in the current year quarter was also due in part to the restriction on competing log imports to China from Australia. The increase in domestic sawtimber prices (in U.S. dollar terms) was driven primarily by the rise in the NZ$/US$ exchange rate (US$0.72 per NZ$1.00 versus US$0.65 per NZ$1.00). Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, domestic sawtimber prices improved by a more modest 4% versus the prior year period due to improved demand. Operating income of $14.0 million increased $8.5 million versus the prior year period as a result of higher net stumpage prices ($9.5 million), higher volumes ($1.8 million) and lower costs ($0.2 million), partially offset by deferred carbon credit sales ($1.8 million), higher depletion rates ($0.7 million) and unfavorable foreign exchange impacts ($0.4 million). First quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $21.2 million was 107%, or $11.0 million above the prior year period.

TIMBER FUNDS

The Timber Funds segment generated first quarter sales of $14.9 million on harvest volumes of 145,000 tons, resulting in operating income of $1.5 million. First quarter Adjusted EBITDA was $1.0 million.

REAL ESTATE

First quarter sales of $10.5 million decreased $108.0 million versus the prior year period, while operating income of $1.7 million decreased $25.1 million versus the prior year period. The prior year first quarter sales and operating income included $116.0 million and $28.7 million, respectively, from a Large Disposition. Sales and operating income declined versus the prior year period due to lower acres sold (2,395 acres sold versus 67,570 acres sold in the prior year period), partially offset by an increase in weighted-average prices ($4,183 per acre versus $1,753 per acre in the prior year period).

Improved Development sales of $0.3 million included three residential lots in the Wildlight development project north of Jacksonville, Florida (an average of $84,000 per lot or $406,000 per acre). There were no Improved Development sales in the prior year period.

There were no Unimproved Development sales in the first quarter or the prior year period.

Rural sales of $9.8 million consisted of 2,394 acres at an average price of $4,079 per acre. This compares to prior year period sales of $2.4 million, which consisted of 624 acres at an average price of $3,842 per acre.

There were no Timberland & Non-Strategic sales in the first quarter or the prior year period.

First quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $5.1 million was $6.2 million above the prior year period.

TRADING

First quarter sales of $16.7 million decreased $2.3 million versus the prior year period primarily due to lower volumes, partially offset by higher prices. Sales volumes decreased 32% to 141,000 tons versus 207,000 tons in the prior year period. The Trading segment generated operating income of $0.2 million versus breakeven results in the prior year period due to improved trading margins resulting from higher prices.

OTHER ITEMS

CORPORATE AND OTHER EXPENSE / ELIMINATIONS

First quarter corporate and other operating expenses of $7.6 million decreased $0.2 million versus the prior year period, which included $2.5 million of costs related to the Pope Resources merger. This positive variance was largely offset by higher overhead expenses.

INTEREST EXPENSE

First quarter interest expense of $10.0 million increased $1.8 million versus the prior year period due to higher outstanding debt following the closing of the Pope Resources acquisition.

INTEREST AND OTHER MISCELLANEOUS EXPENSE, NET

There was negligible other miscellaneous expense in the first quarter versus $0.2 million of expense in the prior year period. The prior year period included unfavorable mark-to-market adjustments on marketable equity securities partially offset by favorable mark-to-market adjustments on carbon options and dividend income.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE

First quarter income tax expense of $3.5 million decreased $0.3 million versus the prior year period. The New Zealand subsidiary is the primary driver of income tax expense.

OUTLOOK

In our Southern Timber segment, we anticipate that demand from lumber mills will remain strong and that select U.S. South markets will continue to benefit from improving export demand. Further, we continue to expect a modest improvement in weighted average pricing relative to the prior year, with quarterly fluctuations largely driven by geographic mix.

In our Pacific Northwest Timber segment, we anticipate lower quarterly harvest volumes for the remainder of the year, as we pulled forward some volume in the first quarter to capture favorable demand and pricing. We further expect that strong lumber demand will continue to hold pricing at or above first quarter average prices for the balance of the year.

In our New Zealand Timber segment, we expect continued strong export and domestic demand, and we further expect that the restriction on Australian log imports into China will constrain log supplies. We anticipate that this positive operating momentum will translate into log prices remaining near or above levels realized in the first quarter, which will be partially offset by elevated shipping costs.

In our Real Estate segment, we expect a significant pickup in transaction activity for the balance of the year based on our current pipeline of opportunities. In particular, we are increasingly optimistic about our sales outlook for residential and commercial properties within our real estate development projects.

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 and unitholder distributions. 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. Short-term borrowings have helped fund working capital needs while acquisitions of timberlands generally require funding from external sources or Large Dispositions.

AT-THE-MARKET (“ATM”) EQUITY OFFERING PROGRAM

On September 10, 2020, we entered into a distribution agreement with a group of sales agents through which we may sell common shares, from time to time, having an aggregate sales price of up to $300 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company sold 1.1 million shares under the ATM Program at an average price of $33.31 per share, generating aggregate gross proceeds of $36.9 million, excluding $0.4 million of commissions. As of March 31, 2021, $229.7 million remains available for issuance under the program.

The following table outlines the common stock issuance pursuant to our ATM program (dollars in millions):

SUMMARY OF GUARANTOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION

In March 2012, Rayonier Inc. issued $325 million of 3.75% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “2022 Notes”). On May 7, 2020, Rayonier Inc. contributed its 100% ownership interest in Rayonier Operating Company LLC (the “Contribution”) to Rayonier, L.P. As a result of the Contribution, Rayonier, L.P. expressly assumed all the obligations of Rayonier Inc. with respect to the outstanding 2022 Notes and Rayonier Inc. agreed to irrevocably, fully and unconditionally guarantee jointly and severally, the obligations of Rayonier, L.P. under the Indenture, including the 2022 Notes. Rayonier L.P. is the current issuer of the 2022 Notes.

The subsidiary guarantor, Rayonier TRS Holdings Inc., and parent guarantor, Rayonier Inc., have guaranteed the notes fully and unconditionally on a joint and several basis. As a general partner of Rayonier, L.P., Rayonier Inc. consolidates Rayonier, L.P. and has no material assets or liabilities other than its interest in Rayonier, L.P. These notes are unsecured and unsubordinated and will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding.

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

The summarized balance sheet information for the consolidated obligor group of debt issued by Rayonier, L.P. for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and year ended December 31, 2020 are provided in the table below:


(in millions)	March 31, 2021	December 31, 2020

CASH FLOWS

The following table summarizes our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020:


(millions of dollars)	2021	2020
Cash provided by (used for):
Operating activities	$53.9	$29.2
Investing activities	(44.4)	74.7
Financing activities	(13.8)	(38.7)

CASH PROVIDED BY OPERATING ACTIVITIES

Cash provided by operating activities increased $24.7 million primarily due to higher Adjusted EBITDA.

CASH USED FOR INVESTING ACTIVITIES

Cash used for investing activities of $44.4 million compares to cash provided by investing activities of $74.7 million in the prior year period. This variance is primarily due to proceeds from a Large Disposition in the prior year period ($115.7 million), higher timberland acquisitions ($5.8 million), and higher real estate development investments ($1.2 million), partially offset by other investing activities ($2.3 million) and lower capital expenditures ($1.3 million).

CASH USED FOR FINANCING ACTIVITIES

Cash used for financing activities decreased $24.9 million from the prior year period primarily due to net proceeds from the issuance of common shares under the ATM equity offering program ($32.5 million), decreases in share repurchases ($3.2 million), and increases in proceeds from the issuance of common shares under the Company’s incentive stock plan ($1.1 million), partially offset by increased distributions to consolidated affiliates ($8.1 million), dividends paid on common stock ($2.6 million) and distributions to noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership ($1.2 million).

EXPECTED 2021 EXPENDITURES

Capital expenditures in 2021 are expected to be between $73 million and $76 million, excluding capital expenditures attributable to the Timber Funds and any strategic timberland acquisitions we may make. Capital expenditures are expected to primarily consist of seedling planting, fertilization and other silvicultural activities, property taxes, lease payments, allocated overhead and other capitalized costs. Aside from capital expenditures, we may also acquire timberland as we actively evaluate acquisition opportunities.

We anticipate real estate development investments in 2021 to be between $16 million and $18 million, net of reimbursements from community development bonds. Expected real estate development investments are primarily related to Wildlight, our mixed-use community development project located north of Jacksonville, Florida; Richmond Hill, our mixed-use development project located south of Savannah, Georgia; development properties in the town of Port Gamble, Washington; and development projects in Gig Harbor, Kingston and Bremerton Washington.

Our 2021 dividend payments on Rayonier Inc. common shares and distributions to Rayonier, L.P. unitholders are expected to be approximately $150.0 million and $4.6 million, respectively, assuming no change in the

quarterly dividend rate of $0.27 per share or partnership unit, or material changes in the number of shares or partnership units outstanding.

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

We have no mandatory pension contribution requirements in the current year.

Cash tax payments in 2021 are expected to be approximately $17.0 million, primarily related to the New Zealand subsidiary.

PERFORMANCE AND LIQUIDITY INDICATORS

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 Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“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 uses CAD as a liquidity measure. CAD is a non-GAAP measure of cash generated during a period that is available for common stock dividends, distributions to Operating Partnership unitholders, distributions to noncontrolling interests, repurchase of the Company’s common shares, 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), CAD attributable to noncontrolling interests in Timber Funds, working capital and other balance sheet changes. CAD is not necessarily indicative of the CAD that may be generated in future periods.

Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure. 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 removes the impact of specific items that management believes do not directly reflect the core business operations on an ongoing basis attributable to Rayonier. We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, the non-cash cost of land and improved development, non-operating income and expense, operating income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests in Timber Funds, costs related to the merger with Pope Resources 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. The following table provides a reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA for the respective periods (in millions of dollars):


	Three Months Ended March 31,

(a) Costs related to the merger with Pope Resources include legal, accounting, due diligence, consulting and other costs related to the merger with Pope Resources.

(b) Large Dispositions are defined as transactions involving the sale of timberland that exceed $20 million in size and do not have a demonstrable premium relative to timberland value. In March 2020, we completed the disposition of approximately 67,000 acres located in Mississippi for a sales price and gain of approximately $116.0 million and $28.7 million, respectively.

LIQUIDITY FACILITIES

2021 DEBT ACTIVITY

See Note 9 — Debt for additional information.

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 standby letters of credit and surety bonds. As part of our ongoing operations, we also periodically issue guarantees to third parties. 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 15 — Guarantees for details on the letters of credit and surety bonds as of March 31, 2021.

CONTRACTUAL FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS

In addition to using cash flow from operations and proceeds from Large Dispositions, we finance our operations through the issuance of debt and by entering into leases. These financial obligations are recorded in accordance with accounting rules applicable to the underlying transaction, with the result that some are recorded as liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, while others are required to be disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis.

The following table aggregates our contractual financial obligations as of March 31, 2021 and anticipated cash spending by period:


Contractual Financial Obligations (in millions)	Total	Payments Due by Period

See Note 9 — Debt for additional information.

(b)The book value of long-term debt for the Timber Funds, net of fair market value adjustments, is currently recorded at $60.0 million on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, but upon maturity the liability will be $57.4 million. See Note 9 - Debt for additional information.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to various market risks, including changes in interest rates, commodity prices and foreign exchange rates. Our objective is to minimize the economic impact of these market risks. We use derivatives in accordance with policies and procedures approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Derivatives are managed by a senior executive committee whose responsibilities include initiating, managing and monitoring resulting exposures. We do not enter into financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk through our variable rate debt, primarily due to changes in LIBOR. However, we use interest rate swaps to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on our term credit agreements by swapping existing and anticipated future borrowings from floating rates to fixed rates. As of March 31, 2021, excluding the Timber Funds, we had $900 million of U.S. variable rate debt outstanding on our term credit agreements. The Timber Funds had $25 million of U.S. variable rate debt outstanding on the Fund II Mortgages Payable.

The notional amount of outstanding interest rate swap contracts with respect to our term credit agreements at March 31, 2021 was $900 million. The maturity date of the Term Credit Agreement was extended from August 2024 to April 2028, with the associated interest rate swaps maturing in August 2024. We have entered into forward starting interest rate swaps to cover $150 million of the Term Credit Agreement through the extended maturity date. The Incremental Term Loan Agreement and associated interest rate swaps mature in May 2026, and the 2020 Incremental Term Loan Agreement matures in April 2025 with the associated interest rate swaps maturing in June 2030. At this borrowing level, a hypothetical one-percentage point increase/decrease in interest rates would result in a corresponding increase/decrease in interest payments and expense of approximately $0.3 million over a 12-month period.

The fair market value of our long-term fixed interest rate debt is also subject to interest rate risk. The estimated fair value of our long-term fixed rate debt excluding the Timber Funds at March 31, 2021 was $404 million compared to the $394 million principal amount. The estimated fair value of our Timber Funds’ long-term fixed rate debt at March 31, 2021 was $35.2 million compared to the $32.4 million principal amount. We use interest rates of debt with similar terms and maturities to estimate the fair value of our debt. Generally, the fair market value of fixed-rate debt will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. A hypothetical one-percentage point increase/decrease in prevailing interest rates at March 31, 2021 would result in a corresponding decrease/increase in the fair value of our long-term fixed rate debt of approximately $9 million and $10 million, respectively.

We estimate the periodic effective interest rate on our U.S. long-term fixed and variable rate debt, excluding Timber Funds, to be approximately 3.1% after consideration of interest rate swaps and estimated patronage refunds, excluding unused commitment fees on the revolving credit facility. We estimate the periodic effective interest rate on our Timber Funds’ long-term fixed and variable rate debt to be approximately 2.9% after consideration of estimated patronage refunds.

The following table summarizes our outstanding debt, interest rate swaps and average interest rates, by year of expected maturity and their fair values at March 31, 2021:


(Dollars in thousands)	2021	2022		2023		2024		2025		Thereafter		Total		Fair Value

(b) Interest rates as of March 31, 2021.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

The functional currency of our New Zealand-based operations and New Zealand subsidiary is the New Zealand dollar. Through these operations and our ownership in the New Zealand subsidiary, we are exposed to foreign currency risk on cash held in foreign currencies, shareholder distributions which are paid in U.S. dollars and on foreign export sales and ocean freight payments that are predominantly denominated in U.S. dollars. To mitigate these risks, the New Zealand subsidiary routinely enters into foreign currency exchange contracts and foreign currency option contracts to hedge a portion of the New Zealand subsidiary’s foreign exchange exposure.

Sales and Expense Exposure

At March 31, 2021, the New Zealand subsidiary had foreign currency exchange contracts with a notional amount of $64 million and foreign currency option contracts with a notional amount of $16 million outstanding related to foreign export sales and ocean freight payments. The amount hedged represents a portion of forecasted U.S. dollar denominated export timber and log trading sales proceeds over the next 18 months and next 3 months, respectively.

The following table summarizes our outstanding foreign currency exchange rate risk contracts at March 31, 2021:


(Dollars in thousands)	0-1 months	1-2 months	2-3 months	3-6 months	6-12 months	12-18 months	18-24 months	Total	Fair Value
Foreign exchange contracts to sell U.S. dollar for New Zealand dollar
