From 16 valuation models · updated 14 days ago

Share price +3.9% over the past month.

A solid business, but screening 54% overvalued on our models.

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.

Analysis

Rayonier Inc (RYN) currently trades at $21.79, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $9.96, implying the stock looks roughly 54.3% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 58/100 (solid quality), in the Real Estate sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: 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 Jul 27, 2026

Our scenario range runs from $7.28 (bear case) to $12.65 (bull case); at $21.79, 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 11% below its 52-week high and 13% above its 52-week low, currently below its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Real Estate peers we cover trades at -50% fair-value upside, at -54%, 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 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.
