EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2024 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.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company owned a 98.6% interest in the Operating Partnership, with the remaining 1.4% 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 I, 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; 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, 2023, as filed with the SEC (the “2023 Form 10-K”).

SUMMARY OF UPDATES TO SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

For a full description of our other significant accounting policies, see Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our 2023 Form 10-K.

ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and a description of other segment items (the difference between segment revenue less the segment expenses disclosed under the significant expense principle and each reported measure of segment profit or loss) by reportable segment, as well as disclosure of the title and position of the entity’s CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measures of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The pronouncement is effective for annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We do not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to impact our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires enhanced annual income tax disclosures, primarily through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid reconciliation. The pronouncement is effective for annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to impact our consolidated financial statements.

Recent accounting pronouncements adopted or pending adoption not discussed above are either not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

We have evaluated events occurring from March 31, 2024 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. 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 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 (Loss) is equal to segment income. Certain income (loss) items in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss) are not allocated to segments. These items, which include interest expense, interest and miscellaneous (expense) income and income tax benefit (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, 2024 and 2023:

3. 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”). Unsatisfied performance obligations as of March 31, 2024 are primarily due to advances on stumpage contracts, unearned license revenue, unearned carbon capture and storage revenue and post-closing obligations on real estate sales. Of these performance obligations, $20.9 million is expected to be recognized within the next twelve months, with the remaining $15.3 million expected to be recognized thereafter as we satisfy our performance obligations. 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 trade receivables and deferred revenue (contract liabilities) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Trade receivables 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 contains contract balances recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Long-term deferred revenue

(a)The increase in trade receivables was primarily driven by timing of sales in our timber segments.

(b)The increase in deferred revenue, current is driven by the current portion of a carbon capture and storage contract entered into in the first quarter of 2024, partially offset by the satisfaction of post-closing obligations on real estate sales and the timing of renewals of hunting contracts.

(c)The increase in deferred revenue, non-current is primarily driven by a carbon capture and storage contract entered into in the first quarter of 2024.

The following table summarizes revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of each year:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
		2024	2023
Revenue recognized from contract liability balance at the beginning of the year (a)		$10,235	$11,400

(a) Revenue recognized was primarily from hunting licenses, the use of advances on pay-as-cut timber sales and the satisfaction of post closing obligations on real estate sales.

4. 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 422,000 legal acres of New Zealand timberland. Accordingly, we consolidate the New Zealand subsidiary’s balance sheet and results of operations. Income attributable to the New Zealand subsidiary’s 23% noncontrolling interests is reflected as an adjustment to income in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss) 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.

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,
		2024	2023
Beginning noncontrolling interests in the operating partnership		$81,651	$105,763

Adjustment of noncontrolling interests in the operating partnership		291	2,376

Distributions to noncontrolling interests in the operating partnership		(597)	(861)
Total noncontrolling interests in the operating partnership		$69,589	$82,461

5. EARNINGS PER SHARE AND PER UNIT

Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income attributable to Rayonier Inc. by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income attributable to Rayonier Inc., before net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the operating partnership by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding adjusted to include the potentially dilutive effect of outstanding stock options, performance shares, restricted shares, restricted stock units and noncontrolling interests in operating partnership units.

The following table provides details of the calculations of basic and diluted earnings per common share of the Company:

2024 DEBT ACTIVITY

U.S. Debt

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we made no borrowings or repayments on our Revolving Credit Facility. At March 31, 2024, we had available borrowings of $293.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility, net of $7.0 million to secure our outstanding letters of credit.

New Zealand Debt

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the New Zealand subsidiary made no borrowings or repayments on its working capital facility (the “New Zealand Working Capital Facility”). At March 31, 2024, the New Zealand subsidiary had NZ$20.0 million of available borrowings under its working capital facility.

DEBT COVENANTS

In connection with our 2015 Term Loan Agreement, 2016 Incremental Term Loan Agreement, 2021 Incremental Term Loan Agreement, 2022 Incremental Term Loan Agreement and Revolving Credit Facility, customary covenants must be met, the most significant of which include interest coverage and leverage ratios.

The covenants listed below, which are the most significant financial covenants in effect as of March 31, 2024, are calculated on a trailing 12-month basis:


	Covenant Requirement		Actual Ratio		Favorable
Covenant EBITDA to consolidated interest expense should not be less than	2.5 to 1		11.7 to 1		9.2
Covenant debt to covenant net worth plus covenant debt shall not exceed	65	%	43	%	22	%

In addition to the financial covenants listed above, the Senior Notes due 2031, 2015 Term Loan Agreement, 2016 Incremental Term Loan Agreement, 2021 Incremental Term Loan Agreement, 2022 Incremental Term Loan Agreement, and Revolving Credit Facility include customary covenants that limit the incurrence of debt and the disposition of assets, among others. At March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants.

7. 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 income (“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

Our New Zealand subsidiary’s domestic sales and operating expenses are predominately denominated in New Zealand dollars, while its export sales, shareholder distributions and ocean freight payments are predominately denominated in U.S. dollars. To the extent New Zealand dollar costs exceed New Zealand dollar revenues (the “foreign exchange exposure”), the New Zealand subsidiary manages the foreign exchange exposure through the use of derivative financial instruments. It typically hedges a portion of export sales receipts to cover 50% to 90% of the projected foreign exchange exposure for the following 12 months, up to 75% for the forward 12 to 18 months and up to 50% for the forward 18 to 24 months. Additionally, it will occasionally hedge export sales receipts to cover up to 50% of the foreign exchange exposure for the forward 24 to 36 months and up to 25% of the foreign exchange

(Dollar amounts in thousands unless otherwise stated)

exposure for the forward 36 to 48 months when the the New Zealand dollar is at a cyclical low versus the U.S. dollar. The New Zealand subsidiary’s trading operations typically hedge a portion of export sales receipts to cover the projected foreign exchange exposure for the following three months. As of March 31, 2024, foreign currency exchange contracts and foreign currency option contracts had maturity dates through March 2027.

Foreign currency exchange and option contracts hedging foreign currency risk 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 in AOCI for de-designated hedges remains in AOCI until the forecasted transaction affects earnings. Changes in the value of derivative instruments after de-designation are recorded in earnings.

INTEREST RATE PRODUCTS

We are exposed to cash flow interest rate risk on our variable-rate debt and on anticipated debt issuances. We use variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps and forward-starting interest rate swap agreements 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.

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 AOCI and is amortized using the straight-line method through interest expense over the remaining life of the hedged item. To the extent the associated hedged item is no longer effective, the gain or loss is reclassified out of AOCI to earnings immediately.

INTEREST RATE SWAPS

The following table contains information on the outstanding interest rate swaps as of March 31, 2024:


Outstanding Interest Rate Swaps (a)

8. 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, 2024 and December 31, 2023, using market information and what we believe to be appropriate valuation methodologies under GAAP:


	March 31, 2024			December 31, 2023
Asset (Liability) (a)	Carrying Amount	Fair Value		Carrying Amount	Fair Value
		Level 1	Level 2		Level 1	Level 2
Cash and cash equivalents	$159,903	$159,903	—	$207,696	$207,696	—


Restricted cash (b)	677	677	—	678	678	—



Long-term debt (c)	(1,361,985)	—	(1,299,434)	(1,365,773)	—	(1,299,951)

Interest rate swaps (d)	46,586	—	46,586	43,179	—	43,179

Forward-starting interest rate swaps (d)	16,959	—	16,959	12,782	—	12,782
Foreign currency exchange contracts (d)	(2,116)	—	(2,116)	2,916	—	2,916
Foreign currency option contracts (d)	(59)	—	(59)	1,572	—	1,572


Noncontrolling interests in the operating partnership (e)	69,589	—	69,589	81,651	—	81,651

(a)We did not have Level 3 assets or liabilities at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

(b)Restricted cash represents proceeds from like-kind exchange sales deposited with a third-party intermediary and cash held in escrow. See Note 18 — Restricted Cash for additional information.

(c)The carrying amount of long-term debt is presented net of deferred financing costs and unamortized discounts on non-revolving debt. See Note 6 — Debt for additional information.

(d)See Note 7 — 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 nor 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. See Note 4 — Noncontrolling Interests for additional information.

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.

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.

9. 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.

10. 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.

Changes in environmental and NRD liabilities from December 31, 2023 to March 31, 2024 are shown below:


			Port Gamble, WA






Non-current portion at December 31, 2023			$4,785
Plus: Current portion			11,793
Total Balance at December 31, 2023			16,578
Expenditures charged to liabilities			(171)
Increase to liabilities (a)			2,667
Total Balance at March 31, 2024			19,074
Less: Current portion			(14,414)
Non-current portion at March 31, 2024			$4,660

(a)The increase in liabilities reflects revised environmental and NRD cost estimates recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

It is expected that the upland mill site cleanup and NRD restoration will occur over the next one to two years, while the monitoring of Port Gamble Bay, mill site, and landfills will continue for an additional 15 to 20 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.

We do not currently anticipate any material loss in excess of the amounts accrued; however, we are not able to estimate a possible loss or range of loss, if any, in excess of the established liabilities. Our future remediation expenses may be affected by a number of uncertainties including, but not limited to, the difficulty in estimating the extent and method of remediation, the evolving nature of environmental regulations, and the availability and application of technology. We do not expect the resolution of such uncertainties to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or liquidity.

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

We routinely 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, 2023 to March 31, 2024 are shown below:


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

15. 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 plans. We closed enrollment in the pension plans to salaried employees hired after December 31, 2005. 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 similar to what is currently provided to employees hired after December 31, 2005. 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.

In December 2022, the Rayonier Board of Directors approved the resolution to terminate the Defined Benefit Plan and notified impacted parties of the termination and alternative distribution options. The Defined Benefit Plan was terminated on February 28, 2023. On July 20, 2023, the Rayonier Board of Directors approved the resolution to terminate the unfunded plan and will distribute all benefits in accordance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. The unfunded plan was terminated on July 31, 2023. In the fourth quarter of 2023, distributions were made to settle the obligation with participants in the Defined Benefit Plan electing the lump sum distribution option. In March 2024, the remaining Defined Benefit Plan liability was settled with the purchase of annuity contracts from a third-party insurance company. We made a cash contribution of $2.7 million during the settlement process in order to fund the Defined Benefit Plan on a plan termination basis. We recognized a pre-tax non-cash pension settlement charge of $5.7 million related to the actuarial losses in AOCI.

The unfunded plan will be settled entirely with lump sum cash payments estimated at $1.2 million. We expect to recognize additional pre-tax non-cash pension settlement charges related to the actuarial losses currently in AOCI upon settlement of the remaining obligations of the unfunded plan. These payments and charges are currently expected to occur in 2024, with the specific timing and final amounts dependent upon several factors. Projected cash contributions are an estimate, as actual amounts and timing are dependent upon several factors. See Note 17 - Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income for additional information.

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


Components of Net Periodic Benefit (Credit) Cost	Income Statement Location	Pension		Postretirement
		Three Months Ended March 31,		Three Months Ended March 31,
		2024	2023	2024	2023
Service cost	Selling and general expenses	—	—	$1	$1
Interest cost	Interest and other miscellaneous (expense) income, net	513	844	18	17
Expected return on plan assets (a)	Interest and other miscellaneous (expense) income, net	(542)	(887)	—	—
Amortization of losses	Interest and other miscellaneous (expense) income, net	—	1	—	—
Pension settlement loss	Interest and other miscellaneous (expense) income, net	5,673	—	—	—
Net periodic benefit (credit) cost		$5,644	($42)	$19	$18

(a)Prior to remeasurement of the Defined Benefit Plan due to the pension settlement, the weighted-average expected long-term rate of return on plan assets used in computing 2024 net periodic benefit cost for benefits was 5.0%. Following the pension settlement, the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets used in computing 2024 net periodic benefit cost for pension benefits is 3.1%.

16. 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, 2024, Rayonier owns a 98.6% 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 (Loss):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
		2024	2023
Income tax benefit (expense) (a)		$832	($1,039)

(a)The three months ended March 31, 2024 includes a $1.2 million income tax benefit related to the pension settlement.

ANNUAL EFFECTIVE TAX RATE

The Company’s effective tax rate after discrete items is below the 21.0% U.S. statutory rate due to tax benefits associated with being a REIT. The following table contains the Company’s annualized effective tax rate after discrete items:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
		2024		2023
Annualized effective tax rate after discrete items		9.8	%	7.9	%

18. RESTRICTED CASH

Restricted cash includes cash deposited with a like-kind exchange (“LKE”) intermediary. In order to qualify for 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 the Company after 180 days and reclassified as available cash. Additionally, restricted cash includes cash balances held in escrow as collateral for certain contractual obligations related to our Heartwood development project as well as cash held in escrow for real estate sales.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in the Consolidated Balance Sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:


	Three Months Ended March 31,

Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash shown in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows	$160,580	$103,736

19. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

Assets held for sale is composed of properties not included in inventory which are 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, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the basis in properties meeting this classification was $10.0 million and $9.9 million, respectively. Since the basis in these properties was less than the fair value, including costs to sell, no impairment was recognized.

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, Real Estate, and Trading. As of March 31, 2024, we owned or leased under long-term agreements approximately 2.7 million acres of timberlands located in the U.S. South (1.85 million acres), U.S. Pacific Northwest (418,000 acres) and New Zealand (422,000 gross acres or 297,000 net plantable acres).

SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Southern Timber, Pacific Northwest Timber and New Zealand 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, the sale of carbon credits, and revenue from land-based solutions such as carbon capture and storage, solar, and wind energy. 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. See Note 4 - Noncontrolling Interests for additional information regarding our noncontrolling interests in the New Zealand Timber segment.

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 Easements 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. It also includes log trading activities conducted from the U.S. South and Pacific Northwest. 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, 2023 and our sustainability report 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 segment relies primarily on domestic customers but also exports timber to China and Japan. The Southern Timber and Pacific Northwest Timber 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 Asian markets, particularly in China and South Korea. 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.

Pricing in our timber segments is influenced by macroeconomic factors, including residential construction activity, and can also vary considerably on a local level based on weather, the available inventory of logs, mill demand, and export market access. In our Southern Timber segment, weather-related constraints on competing supply benefited first quarter harvest volumes and net stumpage realizations. In our Pacific Northwest Timber segment, weighted-average delivered log prices remain under pressure due to weaker domestic demand and reduced export market tension. In our New Zealand Timber segment, lower levels of construction activity in China continue to negatively impact export market demand and prices.

We are also subject to the risk of price fluctuations in certain of our cost components, primarily logging and transportation (cut and haul), ocean freight and demurrage costs. Other major components of our cost of sales are the cost basis of timber sold (depletion) and the cost basis of real estate sold. Depletion includes 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 the cost basis in land and costs directly associated with the development and construction of identified real estate projects, such as infrastructure, roadways, utilities, amenities and/or other improvements. 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.

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

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

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING 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 2023 Form 10-K.

ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED

SOUTHERN TIMBER

First quarter sales of $70.0 million decreased $1.9 million, or 3%, versus the prior year period. Harvest volumes increased 6% to 2.01 million tons versus 1.89 million tons in the prior year period, as we benefited from weather-related constraints on competing supply. Average pine sawtimber stumpage realizations decreased 3% to $30.62 per ton versus $31.57 per ton in the prior year period, primarily due to a less favorable geographic mix. Average pine pulpwood stumpage realizations decreased 2% to $16.89 per ton versus $17.32 per ton in the prior year period, which was also primarily driven by an unfavorable geographic mix. Overall, weighted-average net stumpage realizations (including hardwood) decreased 4% to $23.07 per ton versus $24.03 per ton in the prior year period. Non-timber sales of $9.1 million decreased 3% versus the prior year period, as lower pipeline easement revenues were partially offset by growth in our land-based solutions business. Operating income of $23.0 million increased $0.8 million versus the prior year period due to favorable costs ($1.7 million) and higher volumes ($1.5 million), partially offset by lower net stumpage realizations ($1.9 million) and lower non-timber income ($0.5 million). First quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $44.8 million was 5%, or $2.0 million, above the prior year period.

PACIFIC NORTHWEST TIMBER

First quarter sales of $25.2 million decreased $9.2 million, or 27%, versus the prior year period. Harvest volumes decreased 17% to 317,000 tons versus 384,000 tons in the prior year period, primarily due to the Large Disposition we completed in Oregon in late 2023. Average delivered prices for domestic sawtimber decreased 9% to $84.31 per ton versus $93.12 per ton in the prior year period due to a combination of weaker demand from domestic lumber mills, reduced export market tension, and an unfavorable species mix, as a lower proportion of Douglas-Fir sawtimber was harvested in the current year period. Average delivered pulpwood prices decreased 39% to $29.31 per ton versus $48.23 per ton in the prior year period, as supply constraints and strong end-market demand significantly benefited the prior year period. An operating loss of $4.4 million versus an operating loss of $3.5 million in the prior year period was driven by lower net stumpage realizations ($0.4 million), higher depletion expense ($0.3 million), and lower volumes ($0.2 million). First quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $4.7 million was 34%, or $2.4 million, below the prior year period.

NEW ZEALAND TIMBER

First quarter sales of $45.7 million increased $1.6 million, or 4%, versus the prior year period. Sales volumes of 480,000 tons were relatively flat versus the prior year period. Average delivered prices for export sawtimber decreased 4% to $108.72 per ton versus $112.97 per ton in the prior year period, driven by weaker construction demand in China. Average delivered prices for domestic sawtimber declined 5% to $68.13 per ton versus $71.58 per ton in the prior year period. The decrease in domestic sawtimber prices was primarily driven by weaker domestic demand and decreased competition from export markets, coupled with the decline in the NZ$/US$ exchange rate (US$0.62 per NZ$1.00 versus US$0.63 per NZ$1.00). Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, domestic sawtimber prices decreased 3% versus the prior year period. First quarter non-timber / carbon

credit sales totaled $3.5 million versus $0.3 million in the prior year period. Operating income of $7.4 million increased $8.1 million versus the prior year period due to favorable foreign exchange impacts ($3.4 million), higher carbon credit income ($3.3 million), the prior year write-off of timber basis due to a tropical cyclone casualty event ($2.3 million), lower costs ($0.5 million), and lower depletion rates ($0.3 million), partially offset by lower net stumpage realizations ($1.7 million). First quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $11.4 million was 88%, or $5.4 million, above the prior year period.

REAL ESTATE

First quarter sales of $15.6 million decreased $0.7 million versus the prior year period, while operating loss of $0.1 million decreased $1.0 million versus the prior year period. Sales and operating income decreased versus the prior year period due to fewer acres sold (1,933 acres sold versus 2,087 acres sold in the prior year period) and lower weighted-average prices ($5,774 per acre versus $6,200 per acre in the prior year period), partially offset by favorable deferred revenue adjustments.

Improved Development sales of $1.8 million consisted of two transactions in the Heartwood development project south of Savannah, Georgia, including a 3.1-acre multi-tenant retail parcel for $1.0 million ($321,000 per acre) and 18 finished residential lots for $0.8 million (a base price before true-up of $46,000 per lot or $284,000 per acre). This compares to Improved Development sales of $4.8 million in the prior year period.

Rural sales of $8.7 million consisted of 1,498 acres at an average price of $5,828 per acre. This compares to prior year period sales of $6.5 million, which consisted of 1,531 acres at an average price of $4,245 per acre.

Timberland & Non-Strategic sales of $0.6 million consisted of a 430-acre transaction for $1,421 per acre. This compares to prior year period sales of $1.6 million, which consisted of a 528-acre transaction for $3,100 per acre.

First quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $4.6 million decreased $2.0 million versus the prior year period.

TRADING

First quarter sales of $11.8 million decreased $0.8 million versus the prior year period, primarily due to lower prices. Sales volumes of 105,000 tons remained flat versus the prior year period. The Trading segment generated breakeven results versus operating income of $0.3 million in the prior year period.

OTHER ITEMS

CORPORATE AND OTHER EXPENSE / ELIMINATIONS

First quarter corporate and other operating expenses of $9.8 million increased $1.2 million versus the prior year period, primarily due to higher compensation and benefits expenses and professional services fees. Compensation and benefits expenses were elevated versus the prior year quarter primarily due to the acceleration of equity compensation expense for retirement-eligible employees.

INTEREST EXPENSE

First quarter interest expense of $9.7 million decreased $2.0 million versus the prior year period, primarily due to lower average outstanding debt.

INTEREST AND OTHER MISCELLANEOUS (EXPENSE) INCOME, NET

First quarter interest and other miscellaneous (expense) income includes a $5.7 million pension settlement charge and $1.3 million of net costs associated with legal settlements. The prior year period includes $9.1 million of net recoveries associated with legal settlements.

INCOME TAX BENEFIT (EXPENSE)

First quarter net income tax benefit of $0.8 million versus income tax expense of $1.1 million in the prior year period was primarily due to a $1.2 million tax benefit associated with the pension termination and settlement.

OUTLOOK

In our Southern Timber segment, we anticipate lower quarterly harvest volumes for the remainder of the year. We expect that pine stumpage realizations will decrease modestly over the remainder of the year due to a less favorable geographic mix and a relatively higher proportion of thinning volume. Further, we continue to expect higher non-timber income for full-year 2024 relative to full-year 2023 driven by growth in our land-based solutions business.

In our Pacific Northwest Timber segment, we expect harvest volumes to increase during the second half of the year. We believe that market conditions have generally stabilized, and we expect that end-market demand will improve modestly over the course of the year. We further expect weighted-average delivered log prices will increase modestly into the second half of the year as mill inventories continue to normalize.

In our New Zealand Timber segment, we anticipate higher quarterly harvest volumes for the remainder of the year. We expect weighted-average log prices to decline modestly in the near term before rebounding in the second half of the year due to lower expected log supply into China. Following the recent pull back in carbon credit pricing, we now anticipate the full-year contribution from carbon credit sales to be comparable with the prior year.

In our Real Estate segment, we expect higher transaction volume and operating results in the second quarter.

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.

UPDATE ON INITIATIVES TO ENHANCE SHAREHOLDER VALUE

We are continuing to make progress toward our $1 billion disposition target, and we are actively evaluating several large-scale transactions. Specifically, we are currently marketing approximately 115,000 acres in Washington state, and we have further identified approximately 100,000 acres in the U.S. South that may be suitable for disposition. In addition, we are evaluating strategic alternatives for our New Zealand joint venture interest and have engaged a financial advisor to assist us with this process. We expect to provide additional information as it becomes available.

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

On November 4, 2022 we entered into a new 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 (the “2022 ATM Program”). As of March 31, 2024, $269.7 million remains available for issuance under the 2022 ATM Program.

The following table outlines common share issuances pursuant to our ATM program (dollars in millions):

CASH FLOWS

The following table summarizes our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:


(millions of dollars)	2024	2023
Cash provided by (used for):
Operating activities	$52.3	$64.0
Investing activities	(24.0)	(32.2)
Financing activities	(75.1)	(43.1)

CASH PROVIDED BY OPERATING ACTIVITIES

Cash provided by operating activities decreased $11.7 million from the prior year period primarily due to changes in working capital.

CASH USED FOR INVESTING ACTIVITIES

Cash used for investing activities decreased $8.2 million from the prior year period due to lower cash used for timberland acquisitions ($8.7 million) and lower real estate development investments ($2.3 million), partially offset by lower proceeds from other investing activities ($2.7 million) and higher capital expenditures ($0.1 million).

CASH USED FOR FINANCING ACTIVITIES

Cash used for financing activities increased $32.0 million from the prior year period. This is primarily due to higher dividends paid on common shares ($30.1 million), higher distributions to noncontrolling interests in consolidated affiliates ($1.7 million), and higher distributions to noncontrolling interests in the operating partnership ($0.3 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, distributions to noncontrolling interests, and repurchases of the Company’s common shares to satisfy other commitments.

(f)Commitments — other includes $1.2 million related to the pension plan termination. See Note 15 - Employee Benefit Plans for additional information.

We expect to fund future uses of cash with a combination of existing cash balances, cash generated by operating activities, the remaining issuances available under the Company’s ATM Program, Large Dispositions and the use of our revolving credit facilities. We believe we have sufficient sources of funding to meet our business requirements for the next 12 months and in the longer term.

EXPECTED 2024 EXPENDITURES

Capital expenditures in 2024 are expected to be between $83 million and $88 million, excluding 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 2024 to be between $30 million and $34 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 and Heartwood, our mixed-use development project located in Richmond Hill just south of Savannah, Georgia.

Our 2024 dividend payments on Rayonier Inc. common shares and distributions to Rayonier, L.P. unitholders, excluding the additional dividend and distribution paid on January 12, 2024 to shareholders of record on December 29, 2023, are expected to be approximately $171 million and $2 million, respectively, assuming no change in the quarterly dividend rate of $0.285 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 made cash contributions in 2024 of $2.7 million in order to fund the Defined Benefit Plan on a plan termination basis. Additionally, we anticipate settling the Excess Benefit Plan with lump sum payments upon termination of the Defined Benefit Plan with cash contributions of approximately $1.2 million. See Note 15 — Employee Benefit Plans for additional information.

Full-year 2024 cash tax payments are expected to be between $5.0 million and $8.0 million, primarily related to the New Zealand subsidiary.

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 11 — Guarantees for details on the letters of credit and surety bonds as of March 31, 2024.

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., Rayonier Inc., and Rayonier Operating Company, LLC agreed to irrevocably, fully and unconditionally guarantee jointly and severally, the obligations of Rayonier, L.P. in regards to the Senior Notes due 2031. 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 excluded 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, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023 are provided in the table below:

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 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 share 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) and 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 excludes specific items that management believes are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating results. 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, timber write-offs resulting from casualty events and Large Dispositions.

We reconcile Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income for the consolidated Company and to Operating Income 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,

LIQUIDITY FACILITIES

2024 DEBT ACTIVITY

See Note 6 — 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 due to changes in SOFR. 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, 2024, we had $850 million of U.S. long-term variable rate debt outstanding on our term credit agreements.

The notional amount of outstanding interest rate swap contracts with respect to our term credit agreements at March 31, 2024 was also $850 million. The $350 million 2015 Term Loan Agreement matures in April 2028, with the associated interest rate swaps maturing in August 2024. We have entered into forward starting interest rate swaps to cover $200 million of the 2015 Term Loan Agreement through the extended maturity date. The 2016 Incremental Term Loan Agreement and associated interest rate swaps mature in May 2026, and the 2021 Incremental Term Loan Agreement and associated interest rate swaps mature in June 2029. We have entered into an interest rate swap agreement to cover $100 million of borrowings under the 2022 Incremental Term Loan Agreement through the maturity date in December 2027. At this current borrowing and derivatives level, a hypothetical one-percentage point increase/decrease in interest rates would result in no corresponding increase/decrease in interest payments and expense over a 12-month period.

The fair market value of our fixed interest rate debt is also subject to interest rate risk. The estimated fair value of our fixed rate debt at March 31, 2024 was $449.4 million compared to the $518.7 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, 2024 would result in a corresponding decrease/increase in the fair value of our fixed rate debt of approximately $24 million and $26 million, respectively.

We estimate the periodic effective interest rate on our U.S. long-term fixed and variable rate debt to be approximately 2.7% after consideration of interest rate swaps and estimated patronage and excluding unused commitment fees on the revolving credit facility.

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, 2024:


(Dollars in thousands)	2024		2025		2026		2027		2028		Thereafter		Total		Fair Value

(a) Excludes estimated patronage refunds.

(b) Interest rates as of March 31, 2024.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

The New Zealand subsidiary’s export sales are predominately denominated in U.S. dollars, and therefore its cash flows are affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between the New Zealand dollar and the U.S. dollar. This exposure is partially managed by a natural currency hedge, as ocean freight payments and shareholder distributions are also paid in U.S. dollars. We manage any excess foreign exchange exposure through the use of derivative financial instruments.

Foreign Exchange Exposure

At March 31, 2024, the New Zealand subsidiary had foreign currency exchange contracts with a notional amount of $127 million and foreign currency option contracts with a notional amount of $106 million outstanding related to foreign export sales. The amount hedged represents a portion of forecasted U.S. dollar denominated export timber and log trading sales proceeds over the next 36 months and next 2 months, respectively.

The following table summarizes our outstanding foreign currency exchange rate risk contracts at March 31, 2024:


(Dollars in thousands)	0-1 months	1-2 months	2-3 months	3-6 months	6-12 months	12-18 months	18-24 months	24-36 months	Total	Fair Value
