Pinnacle Timberlands

Portfolio Overview

The Pinnacle Timberlands are an investment-grade collection of well-managed timberland properties in Georgia, South Carolina, and Florida.  The four individual sale units provide broad exposure to favorable timber markets and can generate both near-term returns and sustained growth.  Together or in parts, the four sale units represent a scaled, turnkey, diversified Southeast US acquisition opportunity.

Forest & Land Resource

The Pinnacle Timberlands have been carefully stewarded as productive timberland for decades.  Forest management practices have been tailored to site-specific silvicultural best practices, supporting growing conditions optimized for regional market demand.  The age class and product distribution provides long-term harvest optionality with wood flowing into a diverse range of pulp and solid wood markets.

74% of the portfolio acreage is under a planted pine regime.  The portfolio exhibits significant investment in early and mid-rotation treatments with a weighted-average plantation site index of 68.  A well-diversified age class distribution places the average premerchantable age at 5 years while the merchantable planted pine stands average 25 years old with 74 pine tons per acre.  

Operational access to the portfolio ownership is excellent with a combination of state and local roads supported by well-maintained internal woods roads.  The Timberlands are strategically positioned for value-added income from existing recreation leases with further upside available from a robust retail land sale market, apiary leases, and other value streams future landowners can unlock.

The Pinnacle Timberlands portfolio is offered for sale through a single-stage, sealed bid sale process. Interested parties may submit an offer on the entirety of the portfolio or any of the sale unit or combination of units within the package.  Bids will be due July 15, 2026.
