NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(Dollar amounts in thousands unless otherwise stated)


1.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed 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 for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, certain information in the financial statements of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K has been condensed. In the opinion of management, these financial statements and notes reflect all 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, 2010, as filed with the SEC.
Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date but before financial statements were issued, and two subsequent events warranted disclosure. See Note 2 - Earnings Per Common Share and Note 3 - Income Taxes for additional information.
New or Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income. This standard eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. An entity can elect to present items of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement - referred to as the statement of comprehensive income - or in two separate, but consecutive, statements. Each component of net income and each component of other comprehensive income, together with totals for comprehensive income and its two parts - net income and other comprehensive income, would need to be displayed under either alternative. The statements would need to be presented with equal prominence as the other primary financial statements. The standard is effective for Rayonier's first quarter 2012 filing. Since Rayonier reports a condensed consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income as its first financial statement each quarter, this new guidance will have no effect.

Subsequent Events
On July 22, 2011, the Board of Directors authorized a three-for-two stock split. An additional one-half common share for every common share held of record as of August 10, 2011 will be distributed on August 24, 2011. Earnings per share and dividends per share presented in the interim financial statements have not been adjusted for the stock split. The condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income present, on a pro forma basis, earnings per share and dividends per share reflecting the stock split. The following table provides the pro forma post-split basic and dilutive shares used for determining earnings per share:

126,191,424

 
121,639,055

 
125,268,488

 
121,355,205


On July 22, 2011, the Board of Directors also approved an increase in the quarterly dividend per share from $0.54 per share to $0.60 per share on a pre-split basis starting with the third quarter 2011 dividend. On a post-split basis the dividend per share increased from $0.36 per share to $0.40 per share.

3.
INCOME TAXES
Rayonier is a real estate investment trust ("REIT"). In general, only the taxable REIT subsidiaries, whose businesses include the Company's non-REIT qualified activities, are subject to corporate income taxes. However, the Company is subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on built-in gains (the excess of fair market value over tax basis for property held upon REIT election at January 1, 2004) on taxable sales of such property during calendar years 2004 through 2013 (for 2011 the tax rate is zero). Accordingly, the provision for corporate income taxes relates principally to current and deferred taxes on taxable REIT subsidiaries' income and certain property sales.
The Company's effective tax rate is below the 35 percent U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to tax benefits associated with being a REIT. The effective tax rates for the quarter and year-to-date were 15.4 percent and 18.7 percent compared to 13.4 percent and 12.4 percent in 2010, respectively, reflecting higher 2011 earnings from the taxable REIT subsidiaries, in particular Performance Fibers.
The U.S. Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") allowed two credits for taxpayers that produced and used an alternative fuel in the operation of their business through December 31, 2009. In the second quarter of 2011, management approved an exchange of approximately 30 million gallons of alternative fuel ("black liquor") previously claimed for the alternative fuel mixture credit ("AFMC") for the cellulosic biofuel producer credit ("CBPC"). This resulted in a second quarter 2011 net tax benefit of $4.1 million. For additional information, see Note 3 - Alternative Fuel Mixture Credit ("AFMC") and Cellulosic Biofuel Producer Credit ("CBPC") in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Subsequent Events
In July 2011, the Company received a final examination report from the IRS regarding its Rayonier TRS Holdings Inc. ("TRS") 2009 tax return. As a result, Rayonier will reverse the uncertain tax liability recorded in 2009 relating to the taxability of the AFMC and recognize a $16 million tax benefit in the third quarter of 2011. For additional information, see Note 8 - Income Taxes in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

4.
RESTRICTED DEPOSITS
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 that the LKE purchases are not completed, the proceeds are returned to the Company after 180 days and reclassified as available cash. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had $0 and $8.3 million, respectively, of proceeds from real estate sales classified as restricted cash in Other Assets, which were deposited with an LKE intermediary.

JOINT VENTURE INVESTMENT
The Company holds a 26 percent interest in Matariki Forestry Group ("Matariki"), a joint venture ("JV") that owns or leases approximately 0.3 million acres of New Zealand timberlands. In addition to the investment, Rayonier New Zealand Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rayonier Inc., serves as the manager of the JV forests and operates a log trading business.
In February 2010, the JV sold a 35 percent interest to a new investor for NZ$167 million. Matariki issued new shares to the investor and used all the proceeds to pay down a portion of its outstanding NZ$367 million debt. Upon closing, Rayonier's ownership interest in Matariki declined from 40 percent to 26 percent. As a result of this transaction, results for the six months ended June 30, 2010 include a gain of $11.5 million, net of $0.9 million in tax, or $0.14 per diluted share.

SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION
Effective first quarter 2011, the Company renamed its Timber segment, Forest Resources. All prior period amounts previously reported under the Timber segment are now reported under the Forest Resources segment.
Rayonier operates in four reportable business segments: Forest Resources, Real Estate, Performance Fibers, and Wood Products. Forest Resources sales include all activities that relate to the harvesting of timber. Real Estate sales include all property sales, including those designated for higher and better use ("HBU"). The assets of the Real Estate segment include HBU property held by the Company’s real estate subsidiary, TerraPointe LLC. The Performance Fibers segment includes two major product lines,

(Dollar amounts in thousands unless otherwise stated)

cellulose specialties and absorbent materials. The Wood Products segment is comprised of lumber operations. The Company’s remaining operations include harvesting and selling timber acquired from third parties (log trading). These operations are reported in "Other Operations." Sales between operating segments are made based on fair market value, and intercompany sales, purchases and profits (losses) are eliminated in consolidation. The Company evaluates financial performance based on the operating income of the segments.
Operating income (loss) as presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income is equal to segment income (loss). Certain income (loss) items in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income are not allocated to segments. These items, which include gains (losses) from certain asset dispositions, interest income (expense), miscellaneous income (expense) and income tax (expense) benefit, are not considered by Company management to be part of segment operations.
Total assets, sales, operating income (loss) and depreciation, depletion and amortization by segment including Corporate were as follows:

Rayonier uses the following methods and assumptions in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments:
Cash and cash equivalents — 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.
Variable Interest Entity
Rayonier holds a variable interest in a bankruptcy-remote, limited liability subsidiary ("special-purpose entity") which was created in 2004 when Rayonier monetized a $25.0 million installment note and letter of credit received in connection with a timberland sale. The Company contributed the note and a letter of credit to the special-purpose entity and using the installment note and letter of credit as collateral, the special-purpose entity issued $22.6 million of 15-year Senior Secured Notes and remitted cash of $22.6 million to the Company. There are no restrictions that relate to the transferred financial assets. Rayonier maintains a $2.6 million interest in the entity and receives immaterial cash payments equal to the excess of interest received on the installment note over the interest paid on the Senior Secured Notes. The Company's interest is recorded at fair value and is included in "Other Assets" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, the Company calculated and recorded a de minimus guarantee liability to reflect its obligation of up to $2.6 million under a make-whole agreement pursuant to which it guaranteed certain obligations of the entity. This guarantee obligation is also collateralized by the letter of credit. The Company's interest in the entity, together with the make-whole agreement, represents the maximum exposure to loss as a result of the Company's involvement with the special-purpose entity. Upon maturity of the Senior Secured Notes in 2019 and termination of the special-purpose entity, Rayonier will receive the remaining $2.6 million of cash. The Company determined, based upon an analysis under the variable interest entity guidance, that it does not have the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the entity's economic success. Therefore, Rayonier is not the primary beneficiary and is not required to consolidate the entity.

The fair value of the investment in the special-purpose entity is determined by summing the discounted value of future principal and interest payments that Rayonier will receive from the special-purpose entity. The interest rate of a similar instrument is used to determine the discounted value of the payments.

GUARANTEES
 The Company provides financial guarantees as required by creditors, insurance programs, and state and foreign governmental agencies. As of June 30, 2011, the following financial guarantees were outstanding:

(a)
Approximately $39 million of the standby letters of credit serve as credit support for industrial revenue bonds. The remaining letters of credit support various insurance related agreements, primarily workers’ compensation and pollution liability policy requirements. These letters of credit will expire at various dates during 2011 and 2012 and will be renewed as required.
(b)
In conjunction with a timberland sale and note monetization in the first quarter of 2004, the Company issued a make-whole agreement pursuant to which it guaranteed $2.6 million of obligations of a special-purpose entity that was established to complete the monetization. At June 30, 2011, the Company has a de minimus liability to reflect the fair market value of its obligation to perform under the make-whole agreement.
(c)
Rayonier issues surety bonds primarily to secure timber harvesting obligations in the State of Washington and to provide collateral for the Company’s workers’ compensation self-insurance program in that state. These surety bonds expire at various dates during 2011, 2012 and 2014 and are expected to be renewed as required.

The Company is exposed to the risk of reasonably possible additional losses in excess of the established liabilities. As of June 30, 2011, this amount could range up to $40 million, allocable over several of the applicable sites, and arises from uncertainty over the availability or effectiveness of certain remediation technologies, additional or different contamination that may be discovered, development of new or more effective environmental remediation technologies and the exercise of discretion in interpretation of applicable law and regulations by governmental agencies.
Subject to the factors described in Note 14 - Liabilities for Dispositions and Discontinued Operations in the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company believes established liabilities are sufficient for costs expected to be incurred over the next 20 years with respect to its dispositions and discontinued operations. Remedial actions for these sites vary, but include on-site (and in certain cases off-site) removal or treatment of contaminated soils and sediments, recovery and treatment/remediation of groundwater, and source remediation and/or control.

11.
CONTINGENCIES
Rayonier is engaged in various legal actions, including certain environmental proceedings. The Company has been named as a defendant in various other 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 self-insurance, primarily in the areas of workers’ compensation, property insurance and general liability. These other 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.
For additional information, see Note 14 — Liabilities for Dispositions and Discontinued Operations in the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

12.
EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Company has four qualified non-contributory defined benefit pension plans covering a majority of its employees and an unfunded plan that provides benefits in excess of amounts allowable under current tax law in the qualified plans. As of March 2011, all of these plans were closed to new participants. 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.

DEBT
In April 2011, the Company entered into a five year $300 million unsecured revolving credit facility, replacing the previous $250 million facility which was scheduled to expire in August 2011. The new facility has a borrowing rate of LIBOR plus 105 basis points plus a facility fee of 20 basis points and expires in April 2016. The Company had $295 million of available borrowings at June 30, 2011.
In March 2011, TRS, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rayonier, repaid a $75 million term note due in 2015. There were no other significant changes to the Company's outstanding debt as reported in Note 11 - Debt of the Company's 2010 Annual Report on 10-K.

CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
In October 2007, TRS issued $300 million of 3.75% Senior Exchangeable Notes due 2012, and in August 2009 TRS issued $172.5 million of 4.50% Senior Exchangeable Notes due 2015. The notes for both transactions are non-callable and are guaranteed by Rayonier Inc. In connection with these exchangeable notes, the Company provides the following condensed consolidating financial information in accordance with SEC Regulation S-X Rule 3-10, Financial Statements of Guarantors and Issuers of Guaranteed Securities Registered or Being Registered. Each entity in the consolidating financial information follows the same accounting policies as described in the consolidated financial statements, except for the use of the equity method of accounting to reflect ownership interests in wholly-owned subsidiaries, which are eliminated upon consolidation, and the allocation of certain expenses of Rayonier Inc. incurred for the benefit of its subsidiaries.

Reclassifications

On July 29, 2010, Rayonier Inc. reorganized its operating structure by creating a new wholly-owned operating entity Rayonier Operating Company LLC ("ROC"), and entering into a contribution agreement under which Rayonier Inc. contributed all assets and liabilities to ROC. As part of this agreement, ROC guarantees the TRS notes mentioned above. Rayonier Inc.'s guarantee of the TRS notes was unchanged by the transaction. Accordingly, the Company has revised its presentation of previously reported consolidating financial statements to reflect ROC as a subsidiary guarantor.
Also in 2010, the Company determined that certain amounts had been incorrectly allocated between the entities presented. See Note 21 - Consolidating Financial Statements in the Company's 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information. This resulted in (1) an understatement of interest expense of $5.3 million and $10.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, for TRS (Issuer) and an overstatement for the same amount for TRS non-guarantor subsidiaries, and (2) the overstatement of income related to the New Zealand joint venture totaling $0.8 million and $4.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, at Rayonier Inc. (Parent Guarantor) and an understatement for the same amount for Other non-guarantor subsidiaries.  Consequently, Parent Guarantor and Issuer equity in income from subsidiaries and Issuer and Non-guarantor subsidiaries income tax expense, as previously reported, were also impacted by these misallocations in lesser amounts. The information below gives effect to the correction of these matters. The aforementioned items do not impact the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income and Comprehensive Income or Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Management believes the effects of these corrections are not material to the Company’s previously issued condensed consolidating financial statements.

Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
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 the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Rayonier Inc. included in Item 1 of this Report.

The Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("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 the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Forward - Looking Statements
Certain statements in this document regarding anticipated financial outcomes including earnings guidance, if any, business and market conditions, outlook and other similar statements relating to Rayonier's future financial and operational performance, 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," "anticipate" and other similar language. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and undue reliance should not be placed on these statements. The risk factors contained in Item 1A - Risk Factors in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements that are 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 further disclosures we make on related subjects in our subsequent Forms 10-Q, 10-K, 8-K and other reports to the SEC.
 
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. 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 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Segments
Effective first quarter 2011, we reorganized our United States timber operations from the Eastern and Western regions into the Atlantic (Florida and Georgia), Gulf States (Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas) and Northern (New York and Washington) regions. Additionally, we renamed the Timber segment, Forest Resources. All prior periods presented have been restated to conform with this new structure.
We are a leading international forest products company primarily engaged in timberland management, the sale and entitlement of real estate, and the production and sale of high value specialty cellulose fibers and fluff pulp. We operate in four reportable business segments: Forest Resources, Real Estate, Performance Fibers, and Wood Products. Forest Resources sales include all activities which relate to the harvesting of timber. Real Estate sales include all property sales, including those designated for higher and better use ("HBU"). The assets of the Real Estate segment include HBU property held by our real estate subsidiary, TerraPointe LLC. The Performance Fibers segment includes two major product lines, cellulose specialties and absorbent materials. The Wood Products segment is comprised of lumber operations. Our remaining operations include harvesting and selling timber acquired from third parties (log trading). These operations are combined and reported in "Other Operations." Sales between operating segments are made based on fair market value, and intercompany sales, purchases and profits or losses are eliminated in consolidation.
We evaluate financial performance based on the operating income of the segments. Operating income, as presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, is equal to segment income (loss). Certain income (loss) items in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income are not allocated to segments. These items, which include gains (losses) from certain asset dispositions, interest income (expense), miscellaneous income (expense) and income tax (expense) benefit, are not considered by Company management to be part of segment operations.

The Atlantic region's second quarter and year-to-date sales and operating income decreased from the prior year periods. While prices rose slightly in 2011, volumes declined by 12 percent and 27 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 from the prior year periods, respectively. The volume decline reflects lower sawlog demand and the impact of accelerating volumes in 2010 to the first half of the year to capitalize on higher prices. The 2011 results also include approximately $2 million in losses from forest fires in the Southeast.
The Gulf States' sales and operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 declined from the prior year periods. Volumes declined 36 percent and 19 percent for the quarter and year-to-date, respectively, as grade markets softened. The 2011 results also reflect approximately $1 million in losses from forest fires as well as higher transportation and depletion costs due to mix shift.
The Northern region's second quarter and year-to-date sales and operating income improved from the prior year periods due to strong export demand. Prices increased 16 percent and 27 percent for the quarter and year-to-date, respectively, while volumes rose 48 percent and 28 percent, respectively. Log costs increased primarily due to higher diesel costs.
The New Zealand sales represent timberland management fees for services provided to our New Zealand joint venture ("JV").

Table of Contents

The operating income primarily represents equity earnings related to the JV's timber activities. Operating income improved for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from the prior year period due to higher export and domestic prices and the sale of carbon credits.
REAL ESTATE
Our real estate holdings are primarily in the southeastern U.S. We segregate these real estate holdings into three groups: HBU development, HBU rural and non-strategic timberlands. Our strategy is to extract maximum value from our HBU properties. We pursue entitlement activity on development property while maintaining a rural HBU program of sales for conservation, recreation and industrial uses.

Second quarter sales were consistent with the prior year period while operating income increased $1 million. Year-to-date, sales were $20 million below 2010 and operating income declined $10 million. Non-strategic timberland volumes were 897 acres and 1,227 acres for second quarter and year-to-date 2011, respectively, compared to 6,227 acres and 30,223 acres in the comparable prior year periods. Non-strategic timberland prices per acre were slightly favorable to 2010 due to sales mix.
Rural prices and volumes improved for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011. Average rural prices rose $1,055 per acre, or 75 percent, for second quarter and $825 per acre, or 54 percent, year-to-date from the prior year periods primarily due to site specific characteristics. Volumes increased 1,071 acres, or 36 percent, for second quarter and 4,514 acres, or 91 percent, year-to-date from the prior year periods as rural markets strengthened somewhat from the first six months of 2010.

Cellulose specialties sales improved in 2011 versus prior year as prices increased 20 percent and 16 percent for the quarter and year-to-date, respectively, reflecting strong demand. Although volumes were down one percent for the quarter due to the timing of customer orders, volumes increased four percent year-to-date 2011 from the prior year period reflecting a shift in production from absorbent materials to cellulose specialties as well as the timing of customer orders.
Absorbent materials sales increased in 2011 as prices rose 15 percent and 24 percent for second quarter and year-to-date from the prior year periods, respectively, due to stronger market conditions. Volumes declined 12 percent and four percent for the quarter and six months from the comparable 2010 periods, respectively, mainly due to the shift in production to cellulose specialties.

Sales and operating income declined for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 from the prior year periods as prices declined 23 percent and 15 percent, respectively. Prices in the first half of 2010 were elevated due to supply constraints caused by wet weather conditions. Sales and operating income for both 2011 periods were favorably impacted by an eight percent and five percent increase in volumes, respectively, reflecting slightly higher production.
OTHER OPERATIONS
While sales improved for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2011 from the 2010 periods due to higher export demand, operating income declined primarily due to foreign exchange losses.
Corporate and Other Expense/Eliminations
Corporate and other expenses were $7 million for second quarter 2011 and 2010. The results for the six months ended June 30, 2010 include a first quarter gain of $12 million from the sale of a portion of the Company's interest in its New Zealand JV. Excluding the gain on the JV interest sale, corporate and other expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were above the prior year period, which benefited from an insurance settlement in first quarter 2010.
Interest Expense, Interest Income and Other
Interest and other were relatively comparable for the 2011 and 2010 periods.
Income Tax Expense
The effective tax rates for the quarter and year to date were 15.4 percent and 18.7 percent compared to 13.4 percent and 12.4 percent in 2010, respectively, reflecting higher 2011 earnings from the taxable REIT subsidiaries, in particular Performance Fibers. Included in the 2011 second quarter was a net $4 million tax benefit relating to the exchange of the alternative fuel mixture credit ("AFMC") for the cellulosic biofuel producer credit associated with the production and use of black liquor in 2009.
In July 2011, we received a final Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") examination report regarding the Rayonier TRS Holdings Inc. 2009 tax return. As a result, a $16 million reserve relating to the taxability of the AFMC will be reversed in the third quarter.
Outlook
Expansion of our timberland holdings is our top priority for strategic capital, and we are seeing more opportunities for acquisitions in the Southeast. In Performance Fibers, the recent decision to convert our absorbent materials line to produce an additional 190,000 tons of cellulose specialties is a key part of our strategy to remain the global leader in this high value segment.
We are affirming our earnings guidance of $2.85 to $3.10 per share, excluding special items, and we still expect CAD of $285 million to $310 million, substantially above our increased dividend. Our guidance remains unchanged as there have been no significant changes to our markets or expectations since our previous guidance.
Our full year 2011 financial guidance is subject to a number of variables and uncertainties, including those discussed under Item 2- Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Forward - Looking Statements of this Form 10-Q and Item 1A - Risk Factors in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our operations have generally produced consistent cash flows and required limited capital resources. Short-term borrowings have helped fund cyclicality and seasonality in working capital needs and long-term debt has been used to fund major acquisitions.

Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities decreased mainly due to a cash refund of $189 million related to the AFMC received in April 2010. Excluding the impact of this credit, cash provided by operations increased $28 million primarily due to higher earnings in our Performance Fibers and Forest Resources segments, partially offset by lower operating results in our Real Estate and Wood Products segments.
Cash Used for Investing Activities
Cash used for investing activities declined primarily due to a decrease in restricted cash from the timing of like-kind exchange transactions and capital expenditures. This decrease was partially offset by $13 million of timberland acquisitions.
Cash Used for Financing Activities
Cash used for financing activities in 2011 included net debt payments of $75 million, while 2010 included net borrowings of $60 million. See Note 13 — Debt for further information on the repayment of the $75 million five year term loan. Additionally, 2011 dividend payments were higher reflecting a fourth quarter 2010 increase in the quarterly dividend to $0.54 per share from $0.50 per share.
Stock Split and Dividend Increase
On July 22, 2011, the Company's Board of Directors approved a 3-for-2 stock split as well as an increase in the quarterly dividend per common share from $0.54 per share to $0.60 per share on a pre-split basis, or from $0.36 per share to $0.40 per share on a post-split basis. The additional shares will be distributed on August 24, 2011 to shareholders of record as of August 10, 2011, and the dividend increase will be effective starting with the third quarter dividend.
Expected 2011 Expenditures
In May 2011, Rayonier's Board of Directors approved the conversion of our existing absorbent materials line in Jesup, Georgia to produce high purity cellulose specialties. The estimated cost of the project will be approximately $300 million over the next two to three years and may be funded by cash on hand or new debt. Expenditures in 2011 related to this project are forecast to be between $45 million and $50 million. Strategic timberland acquisitions through the six months ended June 30, 2011 totaled $13 million. Through third quarter 2011, we expect strategic timberland acquisitions to be approximately $110 million. Capital expenditures (excluding strategic acquisitions and the Jesup mill cellulose specialties expansion) in 2011 are forecast to be between $140 million and $145 million compared to $138 million in 2010.
Our 2011 dividend payments are expected to increase from $165 million in 2010 to $185 million assuming no change in the recently approved quarterly dividend rate of $0.40 per share on a post-split basis ($0.60 per share on a pre-split basis). In March 2011, we repaid a $75 million term loan with a 2015 maturity date. We have a $93 million note payable which matures on December 31, 2011. While we expect to repay this note using cash on hand, we may issue new debt.

We made no discretionary pension contributions in the first six months of 2011. We have no mandatory pension contributions and we do not expect to make any discretionary contributions in 2011. Cash tax payments for the first six months of 2011 were de minimus. Cash payments for income taxes in 2011 are anticipated to be between $5 million and $10 million. Expenditures related to dispositions and discontinued operations were $5 million for the first six months of 2011; full year 2011 expenditures of approximately $12 million are anticipated. See Note 10 — Liabilities for Dispositions and Discontinued Operations for further information.
Performance and Liquidity Indicators
The discussion below is presented to enhance the reader’s understanding of our operating performance, liquidity, ability to generate cash and satisfy rating agency and creditor requirements. This information includes two measures of financial results: Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization ("EBITDA"), and Adjusted Cash Available for Distribution ("Adjusted CAD"). These measures are not defined by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") and the discussion of EBITDA and Adjusted CAD is not intended to conflict with or change any of the GAAP disclosures described above. Management considers these measures to be important to estimate the enterprise and shareholder values of the Company as a whole and of its core segments, and for allocating capital resources. In addition, analysts, investors and creditors use these measures when analyzing our operating performance, financial condition and cash generating ability. Management uses EBITDA as a performance measure and Adjusted CAD as a liquidity measure. EBITDA is defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Adjusted CAD as defined, however, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
We reconcile EBITDA to Net Income for the consolidated Company and Operating Income for the Segments, as those are the nearest GAAP measures for each. Below is a reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDA for the respective periods (in millions of dollars):

Adjusted CAD is a non-GAAP measure of cash generated during a period which is available for dividend distribution, repurchase of the Company's common shares, debt reduction and strategic acquisitions net of associated financing (e.g. realizing LKE tax benefits). We define CAD as Cash Provided by Operating Activities adjusted for capital spending, the tax benefits associated with certain strategic acquisitions, the change in committed cash, and other items which include cash provided by discontinued operations, proceeds from matured energy forward contracts, excess tax benefits on stock-based compensation and the change in capital expenditures purchased on account. Committed cash represents outstanding checks that have been drawn on our zero balance bank accounts but have not been paid. In compliance with SEC requirements for non-GAAP measures, we reduce CAD by mandatory debt repayments which results in the measure entitled "Adjusted CAD."

Adjusted CAD was lower in 2011 due to the April 2010 receipt of $189 million related to the AFMC. Excluding this amount, 2011 adjusted CAD was $20 million higher than 2010 primarily due to higher operating results. Adjusted CAD generated in any period is not necessarily indicative of the amounts that may be generated in future periods.

Liquidity Facilities
In April 2011, we entered into a five year $300 million unsecured revolving credit facility, replacing the previous $250 million credit facility which was scheduled to expire in August 2011. The new facility has a borrowing rate of LIBOR plus 105 basis points plus a facility fee of 20 basis points and expires in April 2016. At June 30, 2011, the available borrowing capacity on the $300 million credit facility was $295 million.
Both our ability to obtain financing and the related costs of borrowing are affected by our credit ratings, which are periodically reviewed by the rating agencies. In February 2011, Standard & Poor's Ratings Services raised its credit rating on Rayonier to "BBB+" from "BBB". In April 2011, Moody's affirmed its "Baa2" senior unsecured ratings of Rayonier and raised its ratings outlook to “Positive” from “Stable.”
In connection with our installment notes and credit facility, covenants must be met, including ratios based on the covenant definition of EBITDA and ratios of cash flows to fixed charges. At June 30, 2011, we are in compliance with all of these covenants.
In addition to these financial covenants, the installment notes and credit facility include customary covenants that limit the incurrence of debt, the disposition of assets, and the making of certain payments between RFR and Rayonier among others. An asset sales covenant in the RFR installment note-related agreements requires us, subject to certain exceptions, to either reinvest cumulative timberland sales proceeds for individual sales greater than $10 million (the "excess proceeds") in timberland-related investments and activities or, once the amount of excess proceeds not reinvested exceeds $50 million, to offer the note holders prepayment of the notes ratably in the amount of the excess proceeds. The amount of excess proceeds was $37.5 million and $27.2 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

Contractual Financial Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no material changes to the Contractual Financial Obligations table as presented in Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Note 9 - Guarantees for details on the letters of credit, surety bonds and guarantees as of June 30, 2011.

Item 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market and Other Economic Risks
Our exposures to market risk have not changed materially since December 31, 2010. For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk, see Item 7A - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
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 that 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 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 that the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2011.
In the quarter ended June 30, 2011, based upon the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of SEC Rule 13a-15, 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.
