Weyerhaeuser Company (WY) manages 10.4 million acres of timberlands in the U.S. and Canada, offering lumber, plywood, timber, and climate solutions. With a market cap of $18.8 billion, it’s a large-cap stock generating $7.1 billion in net sales in 2024 with 9,400 employees.

Despite its size, Weyerhaeuser stock has pulled back 24% from its 52-week high, declining 13.7% in the past three months. The stock has underperformed the S&P 500 Index, down 8.1% YTD and 11.3% in the past 52 weeks.

After reporting better-than-expected Q1 2025 revenue of $1.8 billion, Weyerhaeuser’s shares fell 2.7% due to a “softer-than-expected” spring building season and tariff-related uncertainty. Timberland’s core profit rose 16% to $167 million, but cautious sentiment and rising import costs impacted investor outlook.

WY stock has lagged behind its competitor, American Tower Corporation (AMT), which has seen a 11.9% increase over the past 52 weeks. Despite its weak performance, analysts remain moderately optimistic, giving WY a consensus rating of “Moderate Buy” and a mean price target of $33.82.
