DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS:
During our Investor Day in February 2024, we communicated a new vision for Rayonier: To
realize the full potential of our land resources in meeting the needs of society. In recent years,
we   ve seen the value creation possibilities within our portfolio expand well beyond our
traditional forestry operations.
Specifically, we   ve seen significantly increased interest
in our lands for various land-based solutions   including
solar, carbon capture and storage (CCS), and carbon
projects   as well as higher-and-better-use (HBU) real
estate opportunities. As these trends reshape our
industry, they   re also reshaping how we think about
our portfolio. Increasingly, we   ve come to see ourselves
as not just a timber company, but as a land resources
company   focused on enhancing the value of our land
portfolio in a multitude of different ways in addition to
our core forestry operations.
Since stepping into the CEO role in April 2024, I   ve been
encouraged by how our organization has embraced
this new vision and has worked to capitalize on these burgeoning opportunities across our land base. We believe
there is significant value creation potential   both for our
02
2024 Annual Report
shareholders and other stakeholders   in optimizing
land use across our portfolio, and our organization is
energized to realize this potential.
I   ve also been pleased with the exceptional job our
team has done in    controlling the controllables    to
improve our financial performance, execute on key
strategic priorities, and realign resources to capitalize
on new growth opportunities. Over the past year, our
team has navigated challenging timber markets to
deliver strong 2024 financial results, executed on an
ambitious asset disposition and capital structure
realignment plan to enhance shareholder value, and
committed significant time and energy toward advancing
our land-based solutions and real estate development
platforms. While the current economic backdrop
remains challenging and uncertain, our team remains
intently focused on creating long-term value for our
shareholders throughout the economic cycle.
