PotlatchDeltic says housing affordability to remain a headwind for broad market

“While interest rates have recently moderated, housing affordability and the macroeconomic environment continue to remain a headwind for the broader housing market. Nonetheless, we maintain a very positive outlook on long-term housing-related fundamentals that drive growth in our business. During 2024, we expect to harvest 7.6 million tons in our Timberlands segment, ship 1.1 billion board feet of lumber in our Wood Products segment and sell about 51,000 rural acres, including the sale of approximately 34,000 acres in the South to Forest Investment Associates, and 130 residential lots in our Real Estate segment,” stated Mr. Cremers.
