JOINT VENTURE INVESTMENT | JOINT VENTURE INVESTMENT On April 4, 2013 (the “acquisition date”), the Company acquired an additional 39 percent ownership interest in Matariki Forestry Group, a joint venture (“New Zealand JV”) that owns or leases approximately 0.3 million acres of New Zealand timberlands. As a result of the acquisition, Rayonier is a 65 percent owner of the New Zealand JV and 100 percent of the results of its operations subsequent to April 4, 2013 have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, along with 100 percent of the JV’s assets and liabilities at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. The portions of the consolidated financial position and results of operations attributable to the New Zealand JV’s 35 percent noncontrolling interest are also shown separately. Rayonier New Zealand Limited (“RNZ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rayonier Inc., continues to serve as the manager of the New Zealand JV forests. Prior to the acquisition date, the Company accounted for its 26 percent interest in the New Zealand JV as an equity method investment. The additional 39 percent interest was acquired for $139.9 million and resulted in the Company obtaining a controlling financial interest in the New Zealand JV and accordingly, the purchase was accounted for as a step-acquisition. Upon consolidation, the Company recognized a $10.1 million deferred gain, which resulted from the original sale of its New Zealand operations to the joint venture in 2005 and a $6 million benefit due to the required fair market value remeasurement of the Company’s equity interest in the New Zealand JV held before the purchase of the additional interest. The acquisition-date fair value of the previous equity interest was $93.3 million. The Company’s operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 reflect 26 percent of the New Zealand JV’s income prior to the acquisition date, as reported in “Equity in income of New Zealand joint venture” in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The following represents the pro forma Rayonier consolidated sales and net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 as if the additional interest in the New Zealand JV had been acquired on January 1, 2013.
