NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(Dollar amounts in thousands unless otherwise stated)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Rayonier Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Rayonier” or the “Company”) 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 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 the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 , as filed with the SEC (the “2018 Form 10-K”).

SUMMARY OF UPDATES TO SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

For information on updated significant accounting policies due to the adoption of ASC 842, see Note 3 — Leases . For a full description of our other significant accounting policies, see Note 1 — Basis of Presentation in the 2018 Form 10-K.

RECENTLY ADOPTED STANDARDS

ASU 2016-02 (ASC 842)

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , on January 1, 2019 and elected to apply the standard as of that day. As such, the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2019 includes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to the rights and obligations created by the Company’s long-term leases. Prior periods have not been restated.

The Company applied the following practical expedients in the transition to the new standard and allowed under ASC 842-10-65-1:

Practical Expedient	Description
Reassessment of expired or existing contracts	The Company elected not to reassess, at the application date, whether any expired or existing contracts contained leases, the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and the accounting for initial direct costs for any existing leases.
Use of hindsight	The Company elected to use hindsight in determining the lease term (that is, when considering options to extend or terminate the lease and to purchase the underlying asset) and in assessing impairment of right-to-use assets.
Reassessment of existing or expired land easements	The Company elected not to evaluate existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases under ASC 840, as allowed under the transition practical expedient. Going forward, new or modified land easements will be evaluated under ASU No. 2016-02.

See Note 3 — Leases for additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures required under ASU No. 2016-02.

OTHER RECENTLY ADOPTED STANDARDS

The Company adopted ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities in the first quarter ended March 31, 2019 with no material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

The Company adopted ASU No 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Non-employee Share-Based Payment Accounting in the first quarter ended March 31, 2019 with no impact on the consolidated financial statements.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In the first quarter 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) did not issue any Accounting Standard Updates which are expected to have a material retrospective or future effect on the consolidated financial statements.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has evaluated events occurring from March 31, 2019 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. REVENUE

PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS

The Company recognizes revenues 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”). The Company generally satisfies performance obligations within a year of entering into a contract and therefore has applied the disclosure exemption found under ASC 606-10-50-14. Unsatisfied performance obligations as of March 31, 2019 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. The Company generally collects payment within a year of satisfying performance obligations and therefore has 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 the Company has 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) the Company performs under the contract.

The following table summarizes revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of each year:

2019	2018
Revenue recognized from contract liability balance at the beginning of the year (a)	$ 5,356	$ 6,372

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

For information on the adoption of ASC 842, including required transition disclosures, see Note 1 — Basis of Presentation .

TIMBERLAND LEASES

U.S. timberland leases typically have initial terms of approximately 30 to 65 years , with renewal provisions in some cases. New Zealand timberland lease terms typically range between 30 and 99 years . New Zealand lease arrangements generally consist of Crown Forest Licenses (“CFLs”), forestry rights and land leases. A CFL is a license arrangement to use government or privately owned land to operate a commercial forest. CFLs generally extend indefinitely and may only be terminated upon a 35 -year termination notice. If no termination notice is given, the CFLs renew automatically each year for a one -year term. Alternatively, some CFLs extend for a specific term. Once a CFL is terminated, the Company may be able to obtain a forestry right from the subsequent owner. A forestry right is a license arrangement with a private entity to use their lands to operate a commercial forest. Forestry rights terminate either upon the issuance of a termination notice (which can last 35 to 45 years ), completion of harvest, or a specified termination date.

As of March 31, 2019 , the New Zealand subsidiary has two CFLs comprising 9,000 acres under termination notice that are currently being relinquished as harvest activities are concluding, as well as two fixed-term CFLs comprising 3,000 acres expiring in 2062. Additionally, the New Zealand subsidiary has two forestry rights comprising 33,000 acres under termination notice that are currently being relinquished as harvest activities are concluding.

Short-term leases	The Company does not record right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for short-term leases (a lease that at commencement date has a lease term of 12 months or less and does not contain a purchase option that is reasonably certain to be exercised).
Separation of lease and non-lease components	The Company does not separate non-lease components from the associated lease components if they have the same timing and pattern of transfer and, if accounted for separately, would both be classified as an operating lease

1. NEW ZEALAND SUBSIDIARY

The Company maintains a 77 % controlling financial interest in Matariki Forestry Group (the “New Zealand subsidiary”), a joint venture that owns or leases approximately 409,000 legal acres of New Zealand timberland. Accordingly, the Company consolidates 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 interest are shown separately within the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income and Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity. Rayonier New Zealand Limited (“RNZ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rayonier Inc., serves as the manager of the New Zealand subsidiary.

5. 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. The Company evaluates financial performance based on segment operating income and Adjusted EBITDA. Asset information is not reported by segment, as the Company does 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 (expenses) and income tax expense, are not considered by management to be part of segment operations and are included under “unallocated interest expense and other.”

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

Rayonier continuously assesses potential alternative uses of its timberlands, as some properties may become more valuable for development, residential, recreation or other purposes. The Company periodically transfers, 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. The Company also acquires 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, the Company also selectively pursues 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, Rayonier also invests in targeted infrastructure improvements, such as roadways and utilities, to accelerate the marketability and improve the value of such properties.

An analysis of higher and better use timberlands and real estate development investments from December 31, 2018 to March 31, 2019 is shown below:

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

1. CONTINGENCIES

The Company has been named as a defendant in various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. While the Company has procured reasonable and customary insurance covering risks normally occurring in connection with its businesses, it has 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 the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flow.

1. GUARANTEES

1. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The Company is exposed to market risk related to potential fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company uses 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, the Company records its 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 (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 Company’s investment in its New Zealand operations is partially or completely liquidated. The ineffective portion of any hedge, 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’s wholly owned subsidiary, 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 35 % to 90 % of its estimated foreign currency exposure with respect to the following three months forecasted sales and purchases, 25 % to 75 % of forecasted sales and purchases for the forward three to 12 months and up to 50 % of the forward 12 to 18 months . 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, 2019 , foreign currency exchange contracts and foreign currency option contracts had maturity dates through July 2020 and February 2020, respectively.

Foreign currency exchange and option contracts hedging foreign currency risk on export sales and ocean freight payments qualify for cash flow hedge accounting. 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. The fair value of foreign currency option contracts is based on a mark-to-market calculation using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The Company 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 income for de-designated hedges remains in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until the forecasted transaction affects earnings. Changes in the value of derivative instruments after de-designation are recorded in earnings.

INTEREST RATE SWAPS

The Company is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk on its variable-rate Term Credit Agreement and Incremental Term Loan Agreement and uses variable-to-fixed interest rate swaps to hedge this exposure. For these derivative instruments, the Company reports the gains/losses from the fluctuations in the fair market value of the hedges in AOCI and reclassifies them to earnings as interest expense in the same period in which the hedged interest payments affect earnings.

July 2016	10 years	100,000	Incremental Term Loan	1.26 %	1.90 %	3.16 %

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

(b) Rate is before estimated patronage payments.

CARBON OPTIONS

The New Zealand subsidiary enters into carbon options from time to time to sell carbon assets at certain prices. The fair value of carbon options is determined by a mark-to-market valuation using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, 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 . For the three months ended March 31, 2019 , the change in fair value of the carbon option contracts of $ 0.4 million , was recorded as a gain in “ Interest and other miscellaneous income, net ” as the contracts did not qualify for hedge accounting treatment. As of March 31, 2019 , carbon option contracts had maturity dates through April 2020.

The following tables demonstrate the impact, gross of tax, of the Company’s derivatives on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 .

	Income Statement Location	Three Months Ended March 31, — 2019		2018
Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges:
Foreign currency exchange contracts	Other comprehensive (loss) income	$ 1,119		$ 1,233
Foreign currency option contracts	Other comprehensive (loss) income	77		181
Interest rate swaps	Other comprehensive (loss) income	( 11,548	)	15,598
Derivatives designated as a net investment hedge:

Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments:
Foreign currency exchange contracts	Interest and other miscellaneous income, net	( 16	)	129
Carbon option contracts	Interest and other miscellaneous income, net	402		—

During the next 12 months, the amount of the March 31, 2019 AOCI balance, net of tax, expected to be reclassified into earnings as a result of the maturation of the Company’s derivative instruments is a loss of approximately $ 0.2 million .

OFFSETTING DERIVATIVES

Derivative financial instruments are presented at their gross fair values in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are not subject to master netting arrangements, which would allow the right of offset.

1. 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 financial instruments held by the Company at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , using market information and what the Company believes to be appropriate valuation methodologies under GAAP:

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

(d) See Note 13 — Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities for information regarding the Consolidated Balance Sheets classification of the Company’s derivative financial instruments.

Rayonier uses the following methods and assumptions in estimating the fair value of its 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.

Carbon option contracts — The fair value of carbon option contracts is determined by a mark-to-market valuation using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, 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 .

1. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Company has one qualified non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering a portion of its 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, the Company froze benefits for all employees participating in the pension plan. In lieu of the pension plan, the Company provides 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.

As of March 31, 2019, the Company has paid zero of the approximately $ 1.3 million in current year mandatory pension contribution requirements (based on actuarially determined estimates and IRS minimum funding requirements).

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,
		2019		2018		2019	2018

Net periodic benefit (credit) cost		$ 135		($ 72	)	$ 15	$ 15

(a) The weighted-average expected long-term rate of return on plan assets used in computing 2019 net periodic benefit cost for pension benefits is 5.7 % .

1. RESTRICTED CASH

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 the Company after 180 days and reclassified as available cash. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the Company had $ 9.9 million and $ 8.1 million , respectively, of proceeds from real estate sales classified as restricted cash which were deposited with an LKE intermediary as well as cash held in escrow for a real estate sale.

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, 2019 :

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (“MD&A”)

When we refer to “we,” “us,” “our,” “the Company,” or “Rayonier,” we mean Rayonier Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. References herein to “Notes to Financial Statements” refer to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of Rayonier Inc. 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, 2018 (the “2018 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 Rayonier’s earnings guidance, if any, business and market conditions, outlook, expected dividend rate, Rayonier’s business strategies, including expected harvest schedules, timberland acquisitions and dispositions, the anticipated benefits of Rayonier’s business strategies, and other similar statements relating to Rayonier’s 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 the 2018 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 the Company’s 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 the Company undertakes no duty to update its forward-looking statements except as required by law. You are advised, however, to review any subsequent disclosures the Company makes on related subjects in its subsequent reports filed with the SEC.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

To supplement Rayonier’s financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), Rayonier uses 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. Rayonier’s 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.

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. 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, 2019 , we owned or leased under long-term agreements approximately 2.6 million acres of timberlands located in the U.S. South (1.8 million acres), U.S. Pacific Northwest (379,000 acres) and New Zealand (409,000 gross acres or 291,000 net plantable acres). 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.

SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Southern Timber, Pacific Northwest Timber and New Zealand Timber 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.

The Real Estate segment includes all U.S. and New Zealand land or leasehold sales disaggregated into five sales categories: Improved Development, Unimproved Development, Rural, Non-Strategic / Timberlands and Large Dispositions.

The Trading segment primarily reflects the log trading activities that support our New Zealand operations. 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. It also provides additional market intelligence that benefits our Southern and Pacific Northwest export log marketing.

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 a significant volume of timber, particularly to China. Both the Southern 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 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.

The Company is also subject to the risk of price fluctuations in its major cost components. The primary components of the Company's 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.

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. See Note 1 — Basis of Presentation and Note 3 — Leases contained in Part I, Item 1 of this report for a discussion of the Company’s updated accounting policies on leases. 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 the 2018 Form 10-K.

DISCUSSION OF TIMBER INVENTORY AND SUSTAINABLE YIELD

See Item 1 — Business — Discussion of Timber Inventory and Sustainable Yield in the 2018 Form 10-K.

SOUTHERN TIMBER

First quarter sales of $60.8 million increased $17.2 million , or 40% , versus the prior year period . Harvest volumes increased 23% to 1.94 million tons versus 1.57 million tons in the prior year period , due to low mill inventories and wet weather conditions driving accelerated stumpage removals on harvestable tracts. Average pine sawtimber stumpage prices were relatively flat at $26.38 per ton versus $26.31 per ton in the prior year period , as price increases in certain regions were largely mitigated by geographic mix. Average pine pulpwood stumpage prices increased 5% to $17.94 per ton versus $17.11 per ton in the prior year period . The increase in average pulpwood prices was driven primarily by limited supply due to persistent wet weather. Overall, weighted-average stumpage prices (including hardwood) increased 3% to $21.03 per ton versus $20.32 per ton in the prior year period . Operating income of $21.5 million increased $9.3 million versus the prior year period as a result of higher volumes ( $3.6 million ), higher net stumpage prices ( $1.4 million ) and higher non-timber income ( $4.5 million ), partially offset by higher overhead expenses ( $0.2 million ). First quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $41.2 million was $13.0 million above the prior year period .

PACIFIC NORTHWEST TIMBER

First quarter sales of $20.5 million decreased $10.9 million , or 35% , versus the prior year period . Harvest volumes decreased 25% to 283,000 tons versus 379,000 tons in the prior year period , as we reduced harvest levels in response to softer market conditions due to lower export demand and weaker U.S. lumber markets. Average delivered sawtimber prices decreased 18% to $78.47 per ton versus $95.45 per ton in the prior year period , while average delivered pulpwood prices increased 1% to $45.15 per ton versus $44.52 per ton in the prior year period . The decrease in delivered sawtimber prices was driven by uncertainty in the export market resulting from the ongoing trade dispute between the U.S. and China as well as weaker U.S. lumber markets. The increase in delivered pulpwood prices was driven primarily by geographic mix. Operating loss of $3.7 million versus operating income of ( $4.7 million ) in the prior year period was primarily due to lower net stumpage prices ( $6.1 million ), lower volumes ( $1.9 million ), higher overhead and other costs ( $0.3 million ) and lower non-timber income ( $0.4 million ), partially offset by lower depletion rates ( $0.3 million ). First quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $3.1 million was $11.1 million below the prior year period.

NEW ZEALAND TIMBER

First quarter sales of $57.1 million increased $4.1 million , or 8% , versus the prior year period . Volumes increased 8% to 604,000 tons versus 558,000 tons in the prior year period . Average delivered prices for export sawtimber decreased 1% to $116.24 per ton versus $117.70 per ton in the prior year period , while average delivered prices for domestic sawtimber decreased 4% to $83.42 per ton versus $87.02 per ton in the prior year period . The decrease in export sawtimber prices was primarily due to increased competition from lower-cost lumber imports and alternative species. The decrease in domestic sawtimber prices (in U.S. dollar terms) was driven primarily by the fall in the NZ$/US$ exchange rate ( US$0.68 per NZ$1.00 versus US$0.72 per NZ$1.00). Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, domestic sawtimber prices increased 2% from the prior year period . Operating income of $15.7 million decreased $0.3 million versus the prior year period as a result of lower net stumpage prices ( $0.9 million ), higher road maintenance costs ( $0.4 million ), higher depletion rates ( $0.5 million ), and unfavorable foreign exchange impacts ( $0.2 million ), partially offset by higher volumes ( $1.5 million ) and higher non-timber income ( $0.2 million ). First quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $22.0 million was $0.3 million above the prior year period .

REAL ESTATE

First quarter sales of $21.0 million decreased $15.1 million versus the prior year period , while operating income of $10.0 million decreased $18.1 million versus the prior year period due to a lower number of acres sold ( 5,679 acres sold versus 8,225 acres sold in the prior year period ) and a decrease in weighted-average prices ( $3,687 per acre versus $4,387 per acre in the prior year period ).

Improved Development sales of $0.3 million in the Wildlight development project consisted of eight residential lots ($42,688 per lot or $292,000 per acre). This compares to prior year period sales of $1.1 million , which consisted of 2.1 acres of commercial property for $0.6 million ($283,000 per acre) and nine residential lots for $0.5 million ($60,000 per lot or $278,000 per acre).

Unimproved Development sales of $1.0 million consisted of a seven- acre tract in Bryan County, Georgia for $145,773 per acre. This compares to prior year period sales of $7.4 million , which consisted of a 494-acre tract in Nassau County, Florida for $10,000 per acre and a 131-acre tract in St. John’s County, Florida for $19,195 per acre.

Rural sales of $12.7 million consisted of 3,338 acres at an average price of $3,794 per acre. This compares to prior year period sales of $1.7 million , which consisted of 415 acres at an average price of $3,977 per acre.

Table of Contents

Non-strategic / Timberland sales of $6.9 million consisted of 2,333 acres at an average price of $2,972 per acre. This compares to prior year period sales of $25.8 million , which consisted of 7,181 acres at an average price of $3,599 per acre. First quarter Adjusted EBITDA of $17.4 million was $15.3 million below the prior year period .

TRADING

First quarter sales of $32.1 million decreased $7.1 million versus the prior year period primarily due to lower volumes. Sales volumes decreased 18% to 281,000 tons versus 341,000 tons in the prior year period . Operating income and Adjusted EBITDA of $0.5 million increased $0.4 million versus the prior year period , primarily driven by increased volume from higher-margin stumpage blocks purchased from third parties.

OTHER ITEMS

CORPORATE AND OTHER EXPENSE / ELIMINATIONS

First quarter corporate and other operating expenses of $5.5 million increased $1.5 million versus the prior year period due to higher legal and overhead costs ( $0.9 million ) and the prior year first quarter income from the sale of unused Internet Protocol addresses ( $0.6 million ).

INTEREST EXPENSE

First quarter interest expense of $7.7 million decreased $0.4 million versus the prior year period due to lower average debt outstanding.

INTEREST AND MISCELLANEOUS INCOME, NET

First quarter non-operating income of $1.3 million , includes interest income and the favorable mark-to-market adjustments on carbon options.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE

First quarter income tax expense of $4.3 million decreased $2.6 million versus the prior year period. The New Zealand subsidiary is the primary driver of income tax expense.

OUTLOOK

Based on our strong start to 2019, we are on track to achieve our full-year Adjusted EBITDA guidance. In our Southern Timber segment, we expect to achieve our full-year volume guidance, although we anticipate lower quarterly harvest volumes for the remainder of the year, as we experienced above average stumpage removals in the first quarter. We continue to expect that average pricing in Southern Timber will improve modestly, with price increases in certain regions moderated by geographic mix on a weighted-average basis. In our Pacific Northwest Timber segment, we expect to achieve our full-year volume guidance with increased harvest volumes in the second half of the year, while we anticipate that any prospective pricing improvements will be largely dependent on a resolution of the U.S.-China trade dispute. In our New Zealand Timber segment, we similarly expect to achieve our full-year volume guidance with increased quarterly harvest volumes for the balance of the year, while we continue to expect that year-over-year pricing will be relatively stable with some fluctuations from quarter to quarter. In our Real Estate segment, we are on track to achieve our full-year Adjusted EBITDA guidance, although quarterly results may vary.

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 a REIT, our main use of cash is dividends. 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.

SUMMARY OF LIQUIDITY AND FINANCING COMMITMENTS

	March 31,	December 31,
(millions of dollars)	2019	2018

Debt to capital ratio	37 %	37 %
Net debt to enterprise value (b)(c)	17 %	19 %

(a) Total debt as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is presented gross of deferred financing costs of $2.3 million and $2.4 million , respectively.

(b) Net debt is calculated as total debt less cash and cash equivalents.

(c) Enterprise value is calculated as the number of shares outstanding multiplied by the Company’s share price plus net debt as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 .

CASH FLOWS

The following table summarizes our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the three months ended March 31 , 2019 and 2018 .

(millions of dollars)	2019		2018
Cash provided by (used for):
Operating activities	$70.9		$78.2
Investing activities	(25.8	)	(17.6	)
Financing activities	(37.9	)	(56.1	)

CASH PROVIDED BY OPERATING ACTIVITIES

Cash provided by operating activities decreased $7.3 million primarily due to lower operating results.

CASH USED FOR INVESTING ACTIVITIES

Cash used for investing activities increased $8.2 million versus the prior year period primarily due to an increase in timberland acquisitions ( $12.3 million ) and capital expenditures ( $0.9 million ). These activities were offset by a decrease in real estate development investments ( $0.7 million ) and other investing activities ( $4.3 million ).

CASH USED FOR FINANCING ACTIVITIES

Cash used for financing activities decreased $18.1 million from the prior year period primarily due to a decrease in net debt repayments ( $29.4 million ), partially offset by a decrease in equity issuances ( $4.9 million ) and increases in dividends paid ( $2.8 million ) and minority shareholder distributions ( $3.6 million ).

EXPECTED 2019 EXPENDITURES

Capital expenditures in 2019 are expected to be between $67 million and $70 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.

Real estate development investments in 2019 are expected to be between $7 million and $10 million, net of anticipated 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 at the interchange of I-95 and State Road A1A.

Our 2019 dividend payments are expected to be approximately $140 million assuming no change in the quarterly dividend rate of $0.27 per share or material changes in the number of shares 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 approximately $1.3 million of mandatory pension contribution requirements in 2019 and may make discretionary contributions in the future.

Cash tax payments in 2019 are expected to be approximately $3 million, primarily due to the New Zealand subsidiary.

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 that management uses to measure cash generated during a period that is available for common stock dividends, distributions to the New Zealand minority shareholder, repurchase of the Company’s common shares, debt reduction, strategic acquisitions and real estate development investments. We define CAD as cash provided by operating activities adjusted for capital spending (excluding timberland acquisitions) 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 removes the impact of specific items that management believes do not directly reflect the core business operations on an ongoing basis. We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, the non-cash cost of land and improved development, Large Dispositions and non-operating income and expense.

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, — 2019		2018

Non-cash cost of land and improved development	4.0		1.6
Non-operating income	(0.3	)	(0.2	)

Table of Contents

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 the Company’s 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, surety bonds and guarantees as of March 31, 2019 .

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, 2019 and anticipated cash spending by period:

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, 2019 , we had $650 million of U.S. long-term variable rate debt. The notional amount of outstanding interest rate swap contracts with respect to this debt at March 31, 2019 was also $650 million. The term credit agreement and associated interest rate swaps mature in August 2024 and the incremental term loan agreement and associated interest rate swaps mature in May 2026. At this borrowing 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 long-term fixed interest rate debt is also subject to interest rate risk. The estimated fair value of our long-term fixed rate debt at March 31, 2019 was $326 million compared to the $325 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, 2019 would result in a corresponding decrease/increase in the fair value of our long-term fixed rate debt of approximately $9 million.

We estimate the periodic effective interest rate on our U.S. long-term fixed and variable rate debt to be approximately 3.3% after consideration of interest rate swaps and estimated patronage refunds, 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, 2019 :

(a) Excludes estimated patronage refunds.

(b) Interest rates as of March 31, 2019 .

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

The functional currency of the Company’s 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.

Table of Contents

Sales and Expense Exposure

At March 31, 2019 , the New Zealand subsidiary had foreign currency exchange contracts with a notional amount of $78 million and foreign currency option contracts with a notional amount of $24 million outstanding related to foreign export sales and ocean freight payments. The amount hedged represents a portion of forecast U.S. dollar denominated export timber and log trading sales proceeds over the next 18 months and next 3 months, respectively.

Shareholder Distributions

At March 31, 2019 , the New Zealand subsidiary had foreign currency exchange contracts with a notional amount of NZ$6 million representing a portion of anticipated shareholder distribution payments over the next 12 months.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Rayonier management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls and procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), are designed with the objective of ensuring information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported or submitted within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no control evaluation can provide absolute assurance that all control exceptions and instances of fraud have been prevented or detected on a timely basis. Even systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance that their objectives are achieved.

Based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2019 .

In the quarter ended March 31, 2019 , based upon the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Exchange Act, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that would materially affect or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
