At the current share price of US$21.66, Rayonier’s recent drift lower, including a 17.45% 3 month share price decline and a 6.67% 1 year total shareholder return decline, points to fading momentum as investors reassess its risk and income profile.

With Rayonier trading at US$21.66 and some valuation tools suggesting a discount to intrinsic value and analyst targets, you now have to ask yourself: is this a genuine opportunity, or is the market already pricing in future growth?

Most Popular Narrative Narrative: 22.2% Undervalued

With Rayonier last closing at US$21.66 against a narrative fair value of about US$27.83, the widely followed view sees meaningful upside baked into its cash flows and assets.

The development and sale of high-value real estate in the U.S. South, particularly through large master-planned communities like Wildlight and Heartwood, is associated with population growth and migration trends; continued demand and a substantial unsold acreage pipeline support expectations for steadily increasing earnings and margin enhancement.

Curious how a timber REIT ends up with this kind of valuation gap? The narrative leans heavily on changing revenue mix, slimmer margins, and a punchy future earnings multiple to get there.

Result: Fair Value of $27.83 (UNDERVALUED)

Have a read of the narrative in full and understand what's behind the forecasts.
