What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case ($12.65). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (58/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • As a real-estate business, asset- and dividend-based methods carry more weight here than a standard DCF.

Price vs Fair Value (5 years)

$33.96 $19.26 Fair Value $9.96 Jun 2021 Sep 2026

White line = price, green steps = our fair value per fiscal year, dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 27, 2026.

How to read this chart

60‑month range $19.26 – $33.96 · fair‑value band $7.28 – $12.65 · the $20.32 price screens above the $9.96 fair value. Green steps = our fair value per fiscal year (point-in-time, no hindsight). 1 fiscal year is left out: there the valuation rested on only a fraction of the usual models. Dashed = 300-day average. As of Aug 27, 2026.

Analysis

Rayonier Inc (RYN) currently trades at $20.32, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $9.96, implying the stock looks roughly 104.0% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 58/100 (solid quality), in the Real Estate sector. Bull case: the Economic Profit group reads highest at a median of $11.84 per share, and 0 of the 16 models we run sit above the $20.32 price. Bear case: the Asset-Based group reads lowest at $4.92, and 16 of the 16 models stay below the price. Evidence for this calculation is high.

Over the trailing twelve months, Rayonier Inc generated revenue of $678M at a net margin of 68.6%. Revenue grew 233.8% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 1.8%. Net debt stands at $230M. Fundamentals as of Aug 27, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $7.28 (bear case) to $12.65 (bull case); at $20.32, the current price sits above that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 17% below its 52-week high and 6% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Real Estate peers we cover trades at −49% fair-value upside, at −51%, RYN screens richer than that median.

Fair Value models

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted, family-balanced blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small. Every input is real reported data, nothing guessed.

Model Bear Bear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull Bull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. Evidence

Non-valuation factor families (profitability, growth, cashflow, financial strength, momentum …), each academically grounded. Valuation itself sits in the Fair Value and is deliberately excluded here to avoid double-counting.

All values are scores from 0 to 100 (100 = best against fixed, research-based bands), not percentages. The three market factors (momentum, 52-week proximity, low volatility) are displayed but carry zero weight in the headline number: market sentiment is not a business property.
