A recent survey of 13 major Wall Street analysts reveals a mean price target for Rayonier (RYN) that implies a 25.9% upside from current levels. Eleven of these analysts have raised their 2025 earnings estimates over the past three months, lifting the consensus forecast by an average of 4.2%. This uniform upward revision is notable: it contrasts with the stock’s muted response to past estimate changes and suggests renewed conviction in RYN’s ability to sustain margin expansion. Key drivers cited include accelerating demand for softwood timber in North America, improving harvest yields from recently acquired timberlands in New Zealand, and disciplined capital deployment that has reduced leverage by roughly 0.3 turns since mid-2024.
