An update from PotlatchDeltic ( (PCH) ) is now available.

PotlatchDeltic, which agreed on October 13, 2025 to merge with Rayonier via a subsidiary that will become a wholly owned unit of Rayonier, reported that three shareholder lawsuits and multiple demand letters have been filed challenging disclosures in the joint proxy statement/prospectus for the deal ahead of special shareholder meetings scheduled for January 27, 2026. While both companies maintain that the claims are without merit and that their existing disclosures comply with securities laws and exchange rules, they are voluntarily issuing detailed supplemental financial and valuation information—primarily expanding on analyses by Morgan Stanley and BofA Securities—to moot the disclosure challenges, reduce litigation-related cost and distraction, and minimize the risk of delays to closing the merger, signaling their determination to keep the transaction on track despite mounting legal scrutiny from investors.

The most recent analyst rating on (PCH) stock is a Buy with a $49.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on PotlatchDeltic stock, see the PCH Stock Forecast page.
