Owning timber REITs here seems like a no brainer. $RYN has an enterprise value of $7.4 billion. They own four million acres. You are buying this for $1,817 per acre. That is dirt cheap. Find me anywhere else you can own a large swath of land for $1,817 per acre. You can’t! The public market will punish RYN for owning a large amount of land. Lower valuation and will call it a value trap. But imagine the optionality of owning this large amount of land. Texas Pacific Land owned a large amount of land and look what happened to their stock price. One of the best performers ever. I’ve done well owning land banks. This one pays a fat dividend. Rare. Market is asleep at the wheel with their pants down and drooling.

$LIEN is an interesting small cap BDC. $13.26/share NAV, stock last $10.20/share, dividend yield of 13.3%. Company is doing an all-stock deal with $REFI which will essentially double the asset base to c. $800 million. Larger asset base should help narrow NAV discount given economies of scale and better cost of capital. Portfolio is largely cannabis credit, which is high coupon / low leverage and the $LIEN mgmt team has done a good job with its credit underwriting.

$LIEN is an interesting small cap BDC. $13.26/share NAV, stock last $10.20/share, dividend yield of 13.3%. Company is doing an all-stock deal with $REFI which will essentially double the asset base to over $600 million. Larger asset base should help narrow NAV discount given economies of scale and better cost of capital.
