NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND PRINCIPLES OF INTERIM STATEMENTS

Description of Business

The terms “us,” “we,” “our,” and “the Company” as used in this report refer to Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. together with our consolidated subsidiaries.

We are a diversified real estate operating company. We own and manage, sometimes utilizing third-party property management companies, fifty-two commercial real estate properties in seventeen states in the United States. As of September 30, 2019, we (i) owned forty-eight single-tenant and four multi-tenant income-producing properties with approximately 2.3 million square feet of gross leasable space; (ii) owned the LPGA International Golf Club, which is managed by a third party and classified as held for sale (the “Golf Club”); (iii) held two commercial loan investments; (iv) owned and managed a portfolio of undeveloped land totaling approximately 5,300 acres in Daytona Beach, Florida; and (v) leased some of our land for seventeen billboards; have agricultural operations that are managed by a third party, which consist of leasing land for hay production and timber harvesting; and own and manage Subsurface Interests (hereinafter defined).

In October 2019, the Company completed the sale of a controlling interest in a wholly-owned entity that holds the Company’s Daytona Beach land portfolio of approximately 5,300 acres. Additionally, in October 2019, the Company completed the sale of the Golf Club. See Note 22,  “Subsequent Events” for a description of these transactions.

Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, which provides a more complete understanding of the Company’s accounting policies, financial position, operating results, business properties, and other matters. The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company and the results of operations for the interim periods.

The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and other entities in which we have a controlling interest. Any real estate entities or properties included in the consolidated financial statements have been consolidated only for the periods that such entities or properties were owned or under control by us. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, which requires entities to recognize assets and liabilities that arise from financing and operating leases and to classify those finance and operating lease payments in the financing or operating sections, respectively, of the statement of cash flows pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 842, Leases. The amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018.

9

Table of Contents

The Company’s implemented ASC 842 effective January 1, 2019 and has elected to follow the practical expedients and accounting policies below:

·

The Company, as lessee and as lessor, will not reassess (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) lease classification for any expired or existing leases or (iii) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases.

·

The Company, as lessee, will not apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842 to short-term (twelve months or less) leases. Instead, the Company, as lessee, will recognize the lease payments in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. As of the date of this report, the Company has no such short-term leases.

·

The Company, as lessor, will not separate nonlease components from lease components and, instead, will account for each separate lease component and the nonlease components associated with that lease as a single component if the nonlease components otherwise would be accounted for under ASC Topic 606. The primary reason for this election is related to instances where common area maintenance is, or may be, a component of base rent within a lease agreement.

At the beginning of the period of adoption, January 1, 2019, through a cumulative-effect adjustment, the Company increased right-of use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases for which the Company is the lessee. The amount of the adjustment totaled approximately $681,000 and was reflected as an increase in Other Assets and Accrued and Other Liabilities for corporate leases totaling approximately $473,000 and an increase in Assets Held for Sale and Liabilities Held for sale for golf operations segment leases totaling approximately $208,000. There were no adjustments related to the leases for which the Company is the lessor.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, bank demand accounts, and money market accounts having original maturities of 90 days or less. The Company’s bank balances as of September 30, 2019 include certain amounts over the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash totaled approximately $6.2 million at September 30, 2019 of which approximately $2.7 million is being held in a separate escrow account to be reinvested through the like-kind exchange structure into other income properties; approximately $1.1 million is being held in an entitlement and interest reserve for the $8.0 million first mortgage loan investment originated in June 2019; approximately $160,000 is being held in an interest reserve for the $8.3 million first mortgage loan originated in July 2019; approximately $989,000 is being held in two separate escrow accounts related to two separate land transactions which closed in February 2017 and March 2018; approximately $248,000 is being held in a capital replacement reserve account in connection with our financing of six income properties with Wells Fargo Bank, NA (“Wells Fargo”); and approximately $1.1 million is being held in a general tenant improvement reserve account with Wells Fargo in connection with our financing of the property located in Raleigh, NC leased to Wells Fargo.

Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activity

Interest Rate Swap. In conjunction with the variable-rate mortgage loan secured by our property located in Raleigh, North Carolina leased to Wells Fargo, the Company entered into an interest rate swap to fix the interest rate (the “Interest Rate Swap”). The Company accounts for its cash flow hedging derivative in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815-20, Derivatives and Hedging. Depending upon the hedge’s value at each balance sheet date, the derivative is included in either Other Assets or Accrued and Other Liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet at its fair value. On the date the Interest Rate Swap was entered into, the Company designated the derivative as a hedge of the variability of cash flows to be paid related to the recognized long-term debt liability.

The Company formally documented the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item, as well as its risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge transaction. At the hedge’s inception, the Company formally assessed whether the derivative that is used in hedging the transaction is highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged item, and we will continue to do so on an ongoing basis. As the terms of the Interest Rate Swap and the associated debt are identical, the Interest Rate Swap qualifies for the shortcut method, therefore, it is assumed that there is no hedge ineffectiveness throughout the entire term of the Interest Rate Swap.

10

Table of Contents

Changes in fair value of the Interest Rate Swap that are highly effective and designated and qualified as a cash-flow hedge are recorded in other comprehensive income and loss, until earnings are affected by the variability in cash flows of the designated hedged item.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued and other liabilities at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s credit facility approximates current market rates for revolving credit arrangements with similar risks and maturities. The face value of the Company’s mortgage notes and convertible debt is measured at fair value based on current market rates for financial instruments with similar risks and maturities. See Note 7, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments.”

Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s estimates of fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities is based on the framework established by GAAP. The framework specifies a hierarchy of valuation inputs which was established to increase consistency, clarity and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures. GAAP describes a fair value hierarchy based upon three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, two of which are considered observable and one that is considered unobservable. The following describes the three levels:

·

Level 1 – Valuation is based upon quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

·

Level 2 – Valuation is based upon inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

·

Level 3 – Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

Impact Fees and Mitigation Credits

Impact fees and mitigation credits are stated at historical cost. As these assets are sold, the related revenues and cost basis are reported as revenues from, and direct costs of, real estate operations, respectively, in the consolidated statements of operations.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable related to income properties, which are classified in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets, primarily consist of tenant reimbursable expenses. Receivables related to tenant reimbursable expenses totaled approximately $1.1 million and $628,000 as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Accounts receivable related to real estate operations, which are classified in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets, totaled approximately $1.8 million as of both September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. As more fully described in Note 10, “Other Assets,” these accounts receivable are primarily related to the reimbursement of certain infrastructure costs completed by the Company in conjunction with two land sale transactions that closed during the fourth quarter of 2015.

Trade accounts receivable primarily consist of receivables related to the golf operations segment, which are classified in Assets Held for Sale on the consolidated balance sheets. Trade accounts receivable related to the golf operations segment, which primarily consist of amounts due from members or from private events, totaled approximately $277,000 and $290,000 as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.  

The collectability of the aforementioned receivables is determined based on the aging of the receivable and a review of the specifically identified accounts using judgments. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $14,000 and $185,000, respectively. During the quarter ended September 30, 2019 approximately $250,000 of previously recorded allowance for doubtful accounts related to a single income property; Cocina 214 Restaurant & Bar (“Cocina 214”), located in Daytona Beach, Florida, was reversed

as the previously uncollected rent totaling approximately $0.3 million was paid in accordance with the termination agreement executed in July 2019. The termination payment is more fully described in Note 3, “Income Properties.”  

Purchase Accounting for Acquisitions of Real Estate Subject to a Lease

In accordance with the FASB guidance on business combinations, the fair value of the real estate acquired with in-place leases is allocated to the acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and tenant improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, the value of in-place leases, and the value of leasing costs, based in each case on their relative fair values.

The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired leased property is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land, building and tenant improvements based on the determination of the fair values of these assets.

In allocating the fair value of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, above-market and below-market in-place lease values are recorded as other assets or liabilities based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases, and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease, including the probability of renewal periods. The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to rental income over the initial term unless the Company believes that it is likely that the tenant will renew the option whereby the Company amortizes the value attributable to the renewal over the renewal period.

The aggregate value of other acquired intangible assets, consisting of in-place leases, is measured by the excess of (i) the purchase price paid for a property after adjusting existing in-place leases to market rental rates over (ii) the estimated fair value of the property as-if-vacant, determined as set forth above. The value of in-place leases exclusive of the value of above-market and below-market in-place leases is amortized to expense over the remaining non-cancelable periods of the respective leases. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts relating to that lease would be written off. The value of tenant relationships is reviewed on individual transactions to determine if future value was derived from the acquisition.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations which clarified the definition of a business. Pursuant to ASU 2017-01, the acquisition of an income property subject to a lease no longer qualifies as a business combination, but rather an asset acquisition, accordingly acquisition costs have been capitalized.

Sales of Real Estate

Gains and losses on sales of real estate are accounted for as required by FASB ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company recognizes revenue from the sales of real estate when the Company transfers the promised goods and/or services in the contract based on the transaction price allocated to the performance obligations within the contract. As market information becomes available, real estate cost basis is analyzed and recorded at the lower of cost or market.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method to account for income taxes. Deferred income taxes result primarily from the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. See Note 18, “Income Taxes.” In September 2006, the FASB issued additional guidance, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements included in income taxes. The interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. In accordance with FASB guidance included in income taxes, the Company has analyzed its various federal and state filing positions and believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions are well documented and supported. Additionally, the Company believes that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to the FASB guidance.

On March 26, 2018, the Company sold its four self-developed, multi-tenant office properties located in Daytona Beach, Florida, for approximately $11.4 million (the “Self-Developed Properties Sale”). The sale included the 22,012 square-foot Concierge office building, the 30,720 square-foot Mason Commerce Center comprised of two office buildings, and the 15,360 square-foot Williamson Business Park office building. The gain on the sale totaled approximately $3.7 million, or approximately $0.49 per share, after tax. The Company utilized the proceeds to fund a portion of the previously acquired income property located near Portland, Oregon, leased to Wells Fargo, through a reverse 1031 like-kind exchange structure. As part of the transaction, the Company entered into a lease of its approximately 7,600 square-foot office space in Williamson Business Park for approximately 5 years at a market rental rate.

NOTE 4. LAND AND SUBSURFACE INTERESTS

As of September 30, 2019, the Company owned approximately 5,300 acres of undeveloped land in Daytona Beach, Florida, along six miles of the west and east sides of Interstate 95. Currently, a significant amount of this land is used for agricultural purposes. As of October 21, 2019, approximately 30% of this acreage, over 1,500 acres, is under contract to be sold. Approximately 800 acres of our land holdings are located on the east side of Interstate 95 and are generally well-suited for commercial development. Approximately 4,500 acres of our land holdings are located on the west side of Interstate 95 and the majority of this land is generally well-suited for residential development. Included in the western land is approximately 1,000 acres, primarily an 850-acre parcel and three smaller parcels, which are located further west of Interstate 95 and a few miles north of Interstate 4 that are generally well-suited for industrial purposes.

In October 2019, the Company completed the sale of a controlling interest in a wholly-owned entity that holds the Company’s remaining Daytona Beach land portfolio of approximately 5,300 acres. See Note 22,  “Subsequent Events” for a description of this transaction.

Real estate operations revenue consisted of the following for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively:

(1)The gain recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 on the Buc-ee’s sale totaling approximately $11.9 million excludes approximately $831,000 held in an escrow reserve related to the portion of the acreage sold for which the Company remains obligated to perform wetlands mitigation. The Company expects to recognize the remaining gain of approximately $831,000 upon completion of the mitigation work. See Note 16, “Deferred Revenue”.

Land Impairments. There were no impairment charges related to the Company’s undeveloped land during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 or 2018. 

Daytona Beach Development. We may selectively acquire other real estate in Daytona Beach, Florida. We may target either vacant land or land with existing structures that we would demolish and develop into additional income properties. During 2018, the Company acquired a 5-acre parcel of land with existing structures in downtown Daytona Beach, for a purchase price of approximately $2.0 million. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had also acquired other contiguous parcels totaling approximately 1-acre for approximately $2.1 million. Combined, these parcels represent the substantial portion of an entire city block in downtown Daytona Beach adjacent to International Speedway Boulevard, a major thoroughfare in Daytona Beach. The combined 6 acres is located in an opportunity zone and a community redevelopment area. In addition, this property is proximate to the future headquarters of Brown & Brown Inc., the sixth largest insurance broker in the U.S. and a publicly listed company, that is expected to be occupied by at least 600 of their employees. We have engaged a national real estate brokerage firm to assist us in identifying a developer or investor to acquire a portion or all of the property or to contribute into a potential joint venture to redevelop the property. We are pursuing entitlements for the potential redevelopment of these parcels, along with certain other adjacent land parcels, some of which we have under contract for purchase. As of September 30, 2019, we have incurred approximately $0.8 million in demolition and entitlement costs related to these parcels. Our intent for investments in the Daytona Beach area is to target opportunistic acquisitions of select catalyst sites, which are typically distressed, with the objective of short-to-medium investment horizons. We may enter into joint ventures or other partnerships to develop land we have acquired or may acquire in the future in lieu of self-developing.

Other Real Estate Assets. The Company owns impact fees with a cost basis of approximately $2,000 and mitigation credits with a cost basis of approximately $445,000 for a combined total of approximately $447,000 as of September 30, 2019. There were no impact fee or mitigation credit sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company transferred mitigation credits with a basis of approximately $124,000 to the land acquired by Buc-ee’s. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company sold mitigation credits for approximately $1.0 million, for a gain of approximately $882,000, or $0.12 per share, after tax. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company received cash payments of approximately $251,000 for impact fees with a cost basis that was generally of equal value. Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, impact fees with a cost basis of approximately $72,000 were transferred to the beachfront restaurant leased to LandShark Bar & Grill.

Subsurface Interests. As of September 30, 2019, the Company owns full or fractional subsurface oil, gas, and mineral interests underlying approximately 455,000 “surface” acres of land owned by others in 20 counties in Florida (the “Subsurface Interests”). The Company leases certain of the Subsurface Interests to mineral exploration firms for exploration. Our subsurface operations consist of revenue from the leasing of exploration rights and in some instances, additional revenues from royalties applicable to production from the leased acreage.

There were no subsurface sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 or 2018.

During 2011, an eight-year oil exploration lease was executed covering a portion of our Subsurface Interests. On September 20, 2017, the Company amended the oil exploration lease to, among other things, extend the expiration of the original term for five additional years to the new expiration date of September 22, 2024. The lease is effectively thirteen one-year terms as the lessee has the option to terminate the lease at the end of each lease year. The lessee has exercised renewal options through lease year eight which ended September 22, 2019. The Company has granted the lessee a 30-day extension to determine whether the lease will be extended and, if so, the terms thereof. There can be no assurance that the oil exploration lease will be extended or, if extended, the terms or conditions of such extension. The terms of the lease state the Company will receive royalty payments if production occurs, and may receive additional annual rental payments if the lease is continued in years nine through thirteen. The lease calls for annual lease payments which are recognized as revenue ratably over the respective twelve-month lease periods. Pursuant to the amendment for the lease year eight renewal the annual lease payment is to be paid in installments. In addition, non-refundable drilling penalty payments are made as required by the drilling requirements in the lease which are recognized as revenue when earned, i.e. when the amount is agreed upon. The lessee, an affiliate of Kerogen Exploration LLC, has submitted a drilling permit application in Hendry County to allow for drilling to commence.

Lease payments on the respective acreages and drilling penalties through lease year eight are as follows:

(1)Generally, cash payment for the Lease Payment is received on or before the first day of the lease year. The Drilling Penalty, which is due within thirty days from the end of the prior lease year, is recorded as revenue when earned, i.e., when the amount is agreed upon, while the Lease Payment is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term.

Lease income generated by the annual lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the guaranteed lease term. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, lease income of approximately $186,000 and $586,000 was recognized. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, lease income of approximately $203,000 and $603,000 was recognized. There can be no assurance that the oil exploration lease will be extended beyond lease year eight which ended September 22, 2019 or, if extended, the terms or conditions of such extension.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company also received oil royalties from operating oil wells on 800 acres under a separate lease with a separate operator. Revenues received from oil royalties totaled approximately $10,000 and $11,000, during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Revenues received from oil royalties totaled approximately $39,000 and $50,000, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

The Company is not prohibited from the disposition of any or all of its Subsurface Interests. Should the Company complete a transaction to sell all or a portion of its Subsurface Interests, the Company may utilize the like-kind exchange structure in acquiring one or more replacement investments including income-producing properties. The Company may

release surface entry rights or other rights upon request of a surface owner for a negotiated release fee typically based on a percentage of the surface value. 

There were no releases of surface entry rights during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company completed a transaction releasing our surface entry rights on approximately 600 acres in exchange for approximately $185,000 in cash and fee title to approximately 40 additional acres in Hendry County, valued at approximately $320,000. Including the non-cash value received, the gain from the transaction totaled approximately $435,000, or $0.06 per share, after tax. The Company also received cash payments for the release of surface entry rights of approximately $73,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

NOTE 5. INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURE

Mitigation Bank. The Investment in Joint Venture on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet represents the Company’s ownership interest in the Mitigation Bank (hereinafter defined) (the “JV Investment”). We have concluded the Mitigation Bank is a variable interest entity and is accounted for under the equity method of accounting as the Company is not the primary beneficiary as defined in FASB ASC Topic 810, Consolidation. The significant factors related to this determination include, but are not limited to, the Mitigation Bank being jointly controlled by the members through the use of unanimous approval for all material actions and the retention by the Venture (hereinafter defined) of a third party as the day-to-day manager of the Mitigation Bank property, responsible for the maintenance, generation, tracking, and other aspects of wetland mitigation credits. Under the guidance of FASB ASC 323, Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures, the Company uses the equity method to account for the JV Investment.

The mitigation bank transaction, completed during the second quarter of 2018, consists of the sale of a 70% interest in the entity that holds approximately 2,492 acres of land that has been permitted for the creation of a wetland mitigation bank (the “Venture” or the “Mitigation Bank”). The purchaser of the 70% interest in the Mitigation Bank is comprised of certain funds and accounts managed by an investment advisor subsidiary of BlackRock, Inc. (“BlackRock”). The Company retained an approximately 30% non-controlling interest in the Mitigation Bank.

The Mitigation Bank intends to engage in the creation and sale of both federal and state wetland mitigation credits. These credits will be created pursuant to the applicable permits that have been or will be issued to the Venture from the federal and state regulatory agencies that exercise jurisdiction over the awarding of such credits, but no assurances can be given as to the issuance, marketability or value of the credits. The Venture received the permit from the state regulatory agency on June 8, 2018 (the “State Permit”). The state regulatory agency may award up to 355 state credits under the State Permit. On August 6, 2018, the state regulatory agency awarded the initial 88.84 credits under the State Permit. Receipt of the remaining federal permit is anticipated to occur prior to the end of 2019.

The gain on the sale of the 70% interest in the Mitigation Bank totaled approximately $18.4 million and was comprised of the gain on the sale of 70% interest for proceeds of $15.3 million as well as the gain on the retained 30% interest pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 610-20, Other Income – Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets. The gain was included in the Gain on Disposition of Assets in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2019, the approximately $6.8 million JV Investment included on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets is comprised of the fair market value of the 30% retained interest in the Venture.

The operating agreement of the Venture (the “Operating Agreement”) executed in conjunction with the mitigation bank transaction stipulates that the Company shall arrange for sales of the Venture’s mitigation credits to unrelated third parties totaling no less than $6 million of revenue to the Mitigation Bank, net of commissions, by the end of 2020, utilizing a maximum of 60 mitigation credits (the “Minimum Sales Requirement”). The Operating Agreement stipulates that if the Minimum Sales Requirement is not achieved, then BlackRock has the right, but is not required, to have the Company purchase the number of mitigation credits necessary to reach the Minimum Sales Requirement (the “Minimum Sales Guarantee”). The Company estimates the fair value of the Minimum Sales Guarantee to be approximately $100,000 which was recorded as a reduction in the gain on the transaction and is included in Accrued and Other Liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2019.

20

Table of Contents

Additionally, the Operating Agreement provides BlackRock the right to cause the Company to purchase a maximum of 8.536 mitigation credits per quarter (the “Commitment Amount”) from the Mitigation Bank at a price equal to 60% of the then fair market value for mitigation credits (the “Put Right”). The Put Right is applicable even if the Mitigation Bank has not yet been awarded a sufficient number of mitigation credits by the applicable federal and state regulatory agencies. Further, in any quarter that BlackRock does not exercise its Put Right, the unexercised Commitment Amount for the applicable quarter may be rolled over to future calendar quarters. However, the Operating Agreement also stipulates that any amount of third-party sales of mitigation credits will reduce the Put Rights outstanding on a one-for-one basis, if the sales price of the third-party sales equals or exceeds the prices stipulated by the Put Right. Further, any sales of mitigation credits to third parties at the requisite minimum prices in a quarter that exceeds the quarterly amount of the Put Right, will reduce the Put Rights in future calendar quarters on a one-for-one basis. The maximum potential of future payments for the Company pursuant to the Put Right is approximately $27 million. The Company estimates the fair value of the Put Right to be approximately $200,000, which was recorded as a reduction in the gain on the transaction and is included in Accrued and Other Liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2019.

NOTE 6. COMMERCIAL LOAN INVESTMENTS

Our investments in commercial loans or similar structured finance investments, such as mezzanine loans or other subordinated debt, have been and are expected to continue to be secured by commercial or residential real estate or the borrower’s pledge of its ownership interest in the entity that owns the real estate. The first mortgage loans we invest in or originate are for commercial real estate located in the United States and its territories, and are current or performing with either a fixed or floating rate. Some of these loans may be syndicated in either a pari-passu or senior/subordinated structure. Commercial first mortgage loans generally provide for a higher recovery rate due to their senior position in the underlying collateral. Commercial mezzanine loans are typically secured by a pledge of the borrower’s equity ownership in the underlying commercial real estate. Unlike a mortgage, a mezzanine loan is not secured by a lien on the property. An investor’s rights in a mezzanine loan are usually governed by an intercreditor agreement that provides holders with the rights to cure defaults and exercise control on certain decisions of any senior debt secured by the same commercial property.

On July 5, 2019, the Company originated an approximately $8.3 million first mortgage loan secured by the leasehold interest in the Carpenter Hotel in Austin, Texas. The loan is interest-only with a term of one-year with a fixed interest rate of 11.50%. The Company received an origination fee of 1%, or $82,500.

On July 5, 2019, the Company acquired approximately 1.4 acres of land under the Carpenter Hotel in Austin, Texas (the “Carpenter Purchase”), for approximately $16.25 million. Separately, the Company entered into a new 99-year ground lease (the “Ground Lease”) whereby the Company leased back the land to the seller. The Ground Lease includes annual escalations and certain future repurchase rights. Pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 842, Leases, due to the future repurchase rights, the Ground Lease does not qualify for treatment as a property purchase and has been accounted for on the consolidated balance sheets as a commercial loan investment (the “Ground Lease Loan”). The Company has imputed interest on the Ground Lease Loan which is being recognized as interest income on commercial loan investments in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 9. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The fair value of long-lived assets required to be assessed for impairment is determined on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. These Level 3 inputs may include, but are not limited to, executed purchase and sale agreements on specific properties, third party valuations, discounted cash flow models, and other model-based techniques.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 there were no impairment charges on the Company’s undeveloped land holdings, or its income property portfolio.

During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company wrote down the value of the golf operations assets, which resulted in a corresponding impairment charge of approximately $1.1 million, or $0.15 per share, after tax. The write-down of the golf operations assets to approximately $3.1 million and the related $1.1 million impairment charge were the result of the Company’s assessment of certain triggering events, including activities related to a review of strategic alternatives for the golf operations, occurring during the quarter which required an assessment of the carrying value of the golf operations assets. The net impairment charge is included in the loss from discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2019, the assets comprising the Company’s golf operations segment were under contract for sale to a third party for a sales price of $3.45 million. In October 2019, the Company completed the sale of the Golf Club. See Note 22,  “Subsequent Events” for a description of this transaction.

Income Property Lease Incentive. As of September 30, 2019, the Income Property Lease Incentive of approximately $2.2 million relates to a tenant improvement allowance of approximately $2.7 million provided to Hilton Grand Vacations in conjunction with the extension of their leases of two buildings from November 30, 2021 to November 30, 2026, offset by approximately $580,000 of accumulated amortization which has been recognized as an offset to rental revenue. The remaining balance will be amortized over the remaining term of the leases.

Table of Contents

Infrastructure Reimbursement Receivables. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Infrastructure Reimbursement Receivables were all related to the land sales within the Tomoka Town Center. The balance as of September 30, 2019 consisted of approximately $1.4 million due from Tanger for infrastructure reimbursement to be repaid in eight remaining annual installments of $175,000, net of a discount of approximately $138,000, and approximately $660,000 due from Sam’s Club for infrastructure reimbursement to be repaid in six remaining annual installments of $110,000, net of a discount of approximately $52,000.

Deferred Deal Costs. Deferred Deal Costs represent legal costs incurred in advance of the potential execution of and/or closing of a contract for the disposition of assets, primarily land sales. The costs are deferred and expensed at the time the transaction closes or at the time it becomes evident that the transaction will not be completed. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, approximately $552,000, of deal costs were expensed at the time it became evident that the transaction would not be completed.

Operating Leases – Right-of-Use Asset. The Company implemented FASB ASC Topic 842, Leases, effective January 1, 2019, resulting in a cumulative effect adjustment to increase right-of-use assets and related liabilities for operating leases for which the Company is the lessee.

NOTE 11. COMMON STOCK AND EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is based on the assumption of the conversion of stock options and vesting of restricted stock at the beginning of each period using the treasury stock method at average cost for the periods.

There were no potentially dilutive securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 or for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The effect of 7,500 and 15,000 potentially dilutive securities was not included for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, as the effect would be anti-dilutive.

The Company intends to settle its 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Convertible Notes”) in cash upon conversion with any excess conversion value to be settled in shares of our common stock. Therefore, only the amount in excess of the par value of the Convertible Notes will be included in our calculation of diluted net income per share using the treasury stock method. As such, the Convertible Notes have no impact on diluted net income per share until the price of our common stock exceeds the current conversion price of $68.23. The average price of our common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 did not exceed the conversion price which resulted in no additional diluted outstanding shares.

NOTE 12. TREASURY STOCK

In January 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase of $10.0 million to the open market stock repurchase program, refreshing the total program to an aggregate of $10 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company repurchased 532,477 shares of its common stock for a total cost of approximately $31.1 million, or an average price per share of $58.40, which includes both open market purchases and the Block Share Repurchase (hereinafter defined). The shares of the Company’s common stock repurchased during the six months ended June 30, 2019 were returned to the Company’s treasury. The repurchases completed during the six months ended June 30, 2019 substantially completed the existing $10.0 million buyback program. There were no repurchases during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

 

On April 10, 2019, the Company repurchased 320,741 shares of common stock, or approximately 6% of the Company’s outstanding shares, for approximately $18.4 million (the “Block Share Repurchase”). The shares were purchased from investment vehicles managed by Wintergreen Advisers, LLC (collectively, the “Wintergreen Entities”) in connection with the disposition of their entire position in the Company’s common stock (approximately 28% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock at the time of the Block Share Repurchase). The shares that were sold by the Wintergreen Entities and not repurchased by the Company were acquired by multiple third-party investors. The Block Share Repurchase was completed outside of the Company’s existing $10.0 million buyback program, which was substantially complete as of June 30, 2019, and was funded utilizing capacity under the Credit Facility (hereinafter defined in Note 13, “Long-Term Debt”).

NOTE 13. LONG-TERM DEBT

(1)Secured by the Company’s interest in six income properties. The mortgage loan carries a fixed rate of 4.33% per annum during the first ten years of the term, and requires payments of interest only during the first ten years of the loan. After the tenth anniversary of the effective date of the loan, the cash flows, as defined in the related loan agreement, generated by the underlying six income properties must be used to pay down the principal balance of the loan until paid off or until the loan matures. The loan is fully pre-payable after the tenth anniversary of the effective date of the loan.

(2)Secured by the Company’s income property leased to Wells Fargo located in Raleigh, North Carolina. The mortgage loan has a 5-year term with two years interest only, and interest and a 25-year amortization for the balance of the term. The mortgage loan bears a variable rate of interest based on the 30-day LIBOR plus a rate of 190 basis points. The interest rate for this mortgage loan has been fixed through the use of an interest rate swap that fixed the rate at 3.17%. The mortgage loan can be prepaid at any time subject to the termination of the interest rate swap. Amortization of the principal balance began in May 2018.

Credit Facility. The Company’s revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), with Bank of Montreal (“BMO”) serving as the administrative agent for the lenders thereunder, is unsecured with regard to our income property portfolio but is guaranteed by certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. The Credit Facility bank group is led by BMO and also includes Wells Fargo and Branch Banking & Trust Company. On September 7, 2017, the Company executed the second amendment and restatement of the Credit Facility (the “2017 Amended Credit Facility”).

On May 24, 2019, the Company executed the second amendment to the 2017 Amended Credit Facility (the “2019 Revolver Amendment”). As a result of the 2019 Revolver Amendment, the Credit Facility has a total borrowing capacity of $200.0 million with the ability to increase that capacity up to $300.0 million during the term, subject to lender approval. The Credit Facility provides the lenders with a security interest in the equity of the Company subsidiaries that

26

Table of Contents

own the properties included in the borrowing base. The indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Facility accrues interest at a rate ranging from the 30-day LIBOR plus 135 basis points to the 30-day LIBOR plus 195 basis points based on the total balance outstanding under the Credit Facility as a percentage of the total asset value of the Company, as defined in the 2017 Amended Credit Facility, as amended by the 2019 Revolver Amendment. The Credit Facility also accrues a fee of 15 to 25 basis points for any unused portion of the borrowing capacity based on whether the unused portion is greater or less than 50% of the total borrowing capacity. Pursuant to the 2019 Revolver Amendment, the Credit Facility matures on May 24, 2023,  with the ability to extend the term for 1 year.

At September 30, 2019, the current commitment level under the Credit Facility was $200.0 million. The available borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility was approximately $36.9 million, based on the level of borrowing base assets. As of September 30, 2019, the Credit Facility had a $154.8 million balance outstanding.

The Credit Facility is subject to customary restrictive covenants including, but not limited to, limitations on the Company’s ability to: (a) incur indebtedness; (b) make certain investments; (c) incur certain liens; (d) engage in certain affiliate transactions; and (e) engage in certain major transactions such as mergers. In addition, the Company is subject to various financial maintenance covenants including, but not limited to, a maximum indebtedness ratio, a maximum secured indebtedness ratio, and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. The Credit Facility also contains affirmative covenants and events of default including, but not limited to, a cross default to the Company’s other indebtedness and upon the occurrence of a change in control. The Company’s failure to comply with these covenants or the occurrence of an event of default could result in acceleration of the Company’s debt and other financial obligations under the Credit Facility.

Mortgage Notes Payable. In addition to the Credit Facility, the Company has certain other borrowings, as noted in the table above, all of which are non-recourse.

Convertible Debt. The Company’s $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50% Convertible Notes will mature on March 15, 2020, unless earlier purchased or converted. The initial conversion rate was 14.5136 shares of common stock for each $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, which represented an initial conversion price of approximately $68.90 per share of common stock. Since July of 2016, when the Company’s Board of Directors implemented a quarterly dividend in place of the previous semi-annual dividend and subsequent increases to the quarterly dividend, the conversion rate has been adjusted with each successive quarterly dividend and is currently, after the third quarter 2019 dividend, equal to 14.6571 shares of common stock for each $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, which represents an adjusted conversion price of approximately $68.23 per share of common stock.

The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. Holders may not surrender their Convertible Notes for conversion prior to December 15, 2019, except upon the occurrence of certain conditions relating to the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock, the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, or specified corporate events including a change in control of the Company. The Company may not redeem the Convertible Notes prior to the stated maturity date and no sinking fund is provided for the Convertible Notes. The Convertible Notes are convertible, at the election of the Company, into solely cash, solely shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company intends to settle the Convertible Notes in cash upon conversion, with any excess conversion value to be settled in shares of our common stock. In accordance with GAAP, the Convertible Notes are accounted for as a liability with a separate equity component recorded for the conversion option. A liability was recorded for the Convertible Notes on the issuance date at fair value based on a discounted cash flow analysis using current market rates for debt instruments with similar terms. The difference between the initial proceeds from the Convertible Notes and the estimated fair value of the debt instruments resulted in a debt discount, with an offset recorded to additional paid-in capital representing the equity component. The discount on the Convertible Notes was approximately $6.1 million at issuance, which represents the cash discount paid of approximately $2.6 million and the approximate $3.5 million attributable to the value of the conversion option recorded in equity, which is being amortized into interest expense through the maturity date of the Convertible Notes. As of September 30, 2019, the unamortized debt discount of our Convertible Notes was approximately $641,000.

The Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants as of September 30, 2019, but for a covenant in its Credit Facility that pertains solely to the Company’s stock buyback program. The covenant, set forth in Section 8.8(n) of the Credit Facility, is a secondary fixed charge coverage ratio which incorporates stock buyback activity and incremental land sales, on a rolling twelve-month basis, into the fixed charge coverage ratio and requires that a 1.5x ratio be maintained (the “Buyback Fixed-Charge Coverage Ratio”). As of September 30, 2019, the Buyback Fixed-Charge Coverage Ratio was below the required 1.5x due primarily to (i) the Company’s second quarter 2019 stock buyback activity, including the significant share repurchase transaction in April 2019 in connection with the liquidation by the Company’s then-largest shareholder of its position in Company stock, and (ii) certain land sales transactions anticipated for the third quarter of 2019 not having occurred. The Credit Facility lenders executed a written waiver of the Buyback

Table of Contents

Fixed-Charge Coverage Ratio covenant effective as of September 30, 2019. Based on the Company’s closing of the Land Venture Transaction (as defined below in Note 22, “Subsequent Events”), the Company estimates that it will be in compliance with this covenant through year-end 2019. The Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants as of December 31, 2018.

NOTE 14. INTEREST RATE SWAP

The Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge cash flows tied to changes in the underlying floating interest rate tied to LIBOR for the $24.1 million mortgage note payable as discussed in Note 13, “Long-Term Debt.” During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the interest rate swap agreement was 100% effective. Accordingly, the change in fair value on the interest rate swap has been classified in accumulated other comprehensive income. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the fair value of our interest rate swap agreement, which was a gain of approximately $109,000 and $652,000, was included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The interest rate swap was effective on April 7, 2016 and matures on April 7, 2021. The interest rate swap fixed the variable rate debt on the notional amount of related debt of $24.1 million to a rate of 3.17%.

Environmental Reserve. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company accrued an environmental reserve of approximately $110,000 in connection with an estimate of additional costs required to monitor a parcel of less than one acre of land owned by the Company in Highlands County, Florida, on which environmental remediation work had previously been performed. The Company engaged legal counsel who, in turn, engaged environmental engineers to review the site and the prior monitoring test results. During the year ended December 31, 2015, their review was completed, and the Company made an additional accrual of approximately $500,000, representing the low end of the range of possible costs estimated by the engineers to be between approximately $500,000 and $1.0 million to resolve this matter subject to the approval of the state department of environmental protection (the “FDEP”). The FDEP issued a Remedial Action Plan Modification Approval Order (the “FDEP Approval”) in August 2016 which supports the approximate $500,000 accrual made in 2015. The Company is implementing the remediation plan pursuant to the FDEP Approval. During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company made an additional accrual of approximately $51,000 for the second year of monitoring as the low end of the original range of estimated costs was increased for the amount of monitoring now anticipated. Since the total accrual of approximately $661,000 was made, approximately $577,000 in costs have been incurred through September 30, 2019, leaving a remaining accrual of approximately $84,000.

Restoration Accrual. As part of the resolution of a regulatory matter pertaining to the Company’s prior agricultural activities on certain of the Company’s land located in Daytona Beach, Florida, as of December 31, 2015, the Company accrued an obligation of approximately $1.7 million, representing the low end of the estimated range of possible wetlands restoration costs for approximately 148.4 acres within such land, and such estimated costs were included on the consolidated balance sheets as an increase in the basis of our land and development costs associated with those and benefitting surrounding acres. The final proposal for restoration work was received during the second quarter of 2016 which totaled approximately $2.0 million. Accordingly, an increase in the accrual of approximately $300,000 was recorded during the second quarter of 2016. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company received a revised estimate for completion of the restoration work for which the adjusted final total cost was approximately $2.4 million. Accordingly, an increase in the accrual of approximately $361,000 was recorded during the first quarter of 2019. The

Company has funded approximately $2.2 million of the total $2.4 million of estimated costs through the period ended September 30, 2019, leaving a remaining accrual of approximately $166,000. This matter is more fully described in Note 19 “Commitments and Contingencies.”

Operating Leases – Liability. The Company implemented FASB ASC Topic 842, Leases, effective January 1, 2019, resulting in a cumulative effect adjustment to increase right-of-use assets and related liabilities for operating leases for which the Company is the lessee.

Deferred Oil Exploration Lease Revenue. Pursuant to the amendment for the lease year eight renewal of the oil exploration lease, the annual lease payment is approximately $807,000, which has been recognized ratably over the twelve-month lease period ended September 22, 2019. The Company has granted the lessee a 30-day extension to determine whether the lease will be extended and, if so, the terms thereof. The oil exploration lease is more fully described in Note 4 “Land and Subsurface Interests.”

Deferred Revenue on Land Sales. In conjunction with the land sale to Buc-ee’s in March 2018, the Company funded an escrow account for approximately $831,000 related to the portion of the acreage sold for which the Company remains obligated to perform wetlands mitigation. As a result of the Company’s continuing obligation, approximately $831,000 of the sales price collected at closing was deferred and the revenue will be recognized upon the Company’s performance of the obligation. The Company estimates the obligation related to the wetlands mitigation will total approximately $25,000.

 

Tenant Contributions. In connection with the acquisition of the property in Aspen, Colorado, the master tenant contributed $1.5 million of the $28.0 million purchase price at closing on February 21, 2018. Additionally, the master tenant funded, from its leasing reserve escrow, approximately $935,000 of the Company’s acquisition-related costs. The tenant contributions are being recognized ratably over the remaining term of the lease into income property rental revenue. Approximately $193,000 was recognized into income property rental revenue through September 30, 2019, leaving an aggregate balance of approximately $2.2 million, related to the Company’s total acquisition cost of approximately $29.0 million, to be recognized over the remaining term of the lease.

In connection with the construction of the Company’s beachfront restaurant formerly leased to Cocina 214 in Daytona Beach, Florida, pursuant to the lease agreement, the tenant contributed approximately $1.9 million towards the completion of the building and tenant improvements through direct payments to various third-party construction vendors. The tenant contribution is being recognized ratably over the remaining term of the lease into income property rental revenue. Approximately $199,000 was recognized into income property rental revenue through September 30, 2019, leaving a balance of approximately $1.7 million to be recognized over the remaining term of the lease. Subsequent to the Termination Payment described in Note 3, “Income Properties,” the balance of the tenant contribution liability was reduced by $1.0 million, leaving approximately $690,000 remaining which will be recognized into income property rental revenue ratably over the remaining term of the original Cocina 214 lease.

EQUITY-CLASSIFIED STOCK COMPENSATION

Performance Share Awards – Peer Group Market Condition Vesting

On February 3, 2017, the Company awarded to certain employees 12,635 Performance Shares under the Amended and Restated 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Original 2010 Plan”). The Performance Shares awards entitle the recipient to receive, upon the vesting thereof, shares of common stock of the Company equal to between 0% and 150% of the number of Performance Shares awarded. The number of shares of common stock so vesting will be determined based on the Company’s total shareholder return as compared to the total shareholder return of a certain peer group during a three-year performance period commencing on January 1, 2017, and ending on December 31, 2019.

On January 24, 2018, the Company awarded to certain employees 15,445 Performance Shares under the Original 2010 Plan. The Performance Shares awards entitle the recipient to receive, upon the vesting thereof, shares of common stock of the Company equal to between 0% and 150% of the number of Performance Shares awarded. The number of shares of common stock so vesting will be determined based on the Company’s total shareholder return as compared to the total shareholder return of a certain peer group during a three-year performance period commencing on January 1, 2018, and ending on December 31, 2020.

On January 23, 2019, the Company awarded to certain employees 21,195 Performance Shares under the Second Amended and Restated 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Amended 2010 Plan”). The Performance Shares awards entitle the recipient to receive, upon the vesting thereof, shares of common stock of the Company equal to between 0% and 150% of the number of Performance Shares awarded. The number of shares of common stock so vesting will be determined based on the Company’s total shareholder return as compared to the total shareholder return of a certain peer group during a three-year performance period commencing on January 1, 2019, and ending on December 31, 2021.

Pursuant to amendments to the employment agreements and certain restricted share award agreements entered into by the Company on August 4, 2017, the restricted shares granted thereunder, if they are subject to performance-based vesting conditions, will fully vest following a change in control only if the executive’s employment is terminated

Table of Contents

without cause or if the executive resigns for good reason (as such terms are defined in the executive’s employment agreement), in each case, at any time during the 24-month period following the change in control (as defined in the executive’s employment agreement).

The Company used a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model to determine the fair value of its awards that are based on market conditions. The determination of the fair value of market condition-based awards is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of other variables. These variables include expected stock price volatility over the requisite performance term of the awards, the relative performance of the Company’s stock price and shareholder returns to companies in its peer group, annual dividends, and a risk-free interest rate assumption. Compensation cost is recognized regardless of the achievement of the market conditions, provided the requisite service period is met.

As of September 30, 2019, there was approximately $1.6 million of unrecognized compensation cost, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, related to Performance Share awards, which will be recognized over a remaining weighted average period of 1.9 years.

Market Condition Restricted Shares – Stock Price Vesting

On May 20, 2015 and February 26, 2016, a combined grant of 26,000 shares, net of 68,000 shares permanently surrendered during 2016, of restricted Company common stock was awarded to Mr. Albright under the Original 2010 Plan under a new five-year employment agreement. The 26,000 shares of restricted Company common stock outstanding from these grants were to vest in four increments based upon the price per share of Company common stock during the term of his employment (or within sixty days after termination of employment by the Company without cause), meeting or exceeding the target trailing thirty-day average closing prices ranging from $60 and $65 per share for the first two increments of 2,000 shares each, $70 per share for the third increment of 18,000 shares, and $75 per share for the fourth increment of 4,000 shares. If any increment of the restricted shares fails to satisfy the applicable stock price condition prior to January 28, 2021, that increment of the restricted shares will be forfeited. As of September 30, 2019, the first two increments of this award had vested, leaving 22,000 shares outstanding.

Pursuant to amendments to the employment agreements and certain restricted share award agreements entered into by the Company on February 26, 2016 and August 4, 2017, the restricted shares granted thereunder, if they are subject to performance-based vesting conditions, will fully vest following a change in control only if the executive’s employment is terminated without cause or if the executive resigns for good reason (as such terms are defined in the executive’s employment agreement), in each case, at any time during the 24-month period following the change in control (as defined in the executive’s employment agreement).

No shares remain outstanding under this award as the remaining shares vested during the first quarter of 2019.

On January 25, 2017, the Company granted to certain employees 17,451 shares of restricted Company common stock under the Original 2010 Plan. One-third of the restricted shares will vest on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of January 28, 2017, provided the grantee is an employee of the Company on those dates.

On January 24, 2018, the Company granted to certain employees 17,712 shares of restricted Company common stock under the Original 2010 Plan. One-third of the restricted shares will vest on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of January 28, 2018, provided the grantee is an employee of the Company on those dates. In addition, any unvested portion of the restricted shares will vest upon a change in control.

On January 23, 2019, the Company granted to certain employees 20,696 shares of restricted Company common stock under the Amended 2010 Plan. One-third of the restricted shares will vest on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of January 28, 2019, provided the grantee is an employee of the Company on those dates. In addition, any unvested portion of the restricted shares will vest upon a change in control.

Effective as of August 4, 2017, the Company entered into amendments to the employment agreements and certain stock option award agreements and restricted share award agreements whereby such awards will fully vest following a change in control (as defined in the executive’s employment agreement) only if the executive’s employment is terminated without cause or if the executive resigns for good reason (as such terms are defined in the executive’s employment agreement), in each case, at any time during the 24-month period following the change in control.  

The Company’s determination of the fair value of the three-year vest restricted stock awards was calculated by multiplying the number of shares issued by the Company’s stock price at the grant date, less the present value of expected dividends during the vesting period. Compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

Non-Qualified Stock Option Awards

On October 22, 2014, the Company granted to Mr. Smith an option to purchase 10,000 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Original 2010 Plan, with an exercise price of $50.00. One-third of the options vested on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of the grant date. The options expire on the earliest of: (a) the tenth anniversary of the grant date; (b) twelve months after the employee’s death or termination for disability; or (c) thirty days after the termination of employment for any reason other than death or disability. 

On February 9, 2015, the Company granted to Mr. Albright an option to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Original 2010 Plan, with an exercise price of $57.50. The option vested on January 28, 2016. The option expires on the earliest of: (a) January 28, 2025; (b) twelve months after the employee’s death or termination for disability; or (c) thirty days after the termination of employment for any reason other than death or disability.

On May 20, 2015, the Company granted to Mr. Albright an option to purchase 40,000 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Original 2010 Plan, with an exercise price of $55.62. On February 26, 2016, this option was surrendered and an option to purchase 40,000 shares was granted on February 26, 2016, with identical terms. The option expires on the earliest of: (a) January 28, 2025; (b) twelve months after the employee’s death or termination for disability; or (c) thirty days after the termination of employment for any reason other than death or disability.

On June 29, 2015, the Company granted to an officer of the Company an option to purchase 10,000 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Original 2010 Plan, with an exercise price of $57.54. One-third of the options vested on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of the grant date. The option expires on the earliest of: (a) June 29, 2025; (b) twelve months after the employee’s death or termination for disability; or (c) thirty days after the termination of employment for any reason other than death or disability.

Effective as of August 4, 2017, the Company entered into amendments to the employment agreements and certain stock option award agreements and restricted share award agreements whereby such awards will fully vest following a change in control (as defined in the executive’s employment agreement) only if the executive’s employment is terminated without cause or if the executive resigns for good reason (as such terms are defined in the executive’s employment agreement), in each case, at any time during the 24-month period following the change in control.  

The Company used the Black-Scholes valuation pricing model to determine the fair value of its non-qualified stock option awards. The determination of the fair value of the awards is affected by the stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of other variables. These variables include expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, annual dividends, and a risk-free interest rate assumption.

No options were granted, and no options were exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. As of September 30, 2019, there is no unrecognized compensation cost related to non-qualified, non-vested stock option awards.

NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR STOCK COMPENSATION

Each member of the Company’s Board of Directors has the option to receive his or her annual retainer in shares of Company common stock rather than cash. The number of shares awarded to the directors making such election is calculated quarterly by dividing (i) the sum of (A) the amount of the quarterly retainer payment due to such director plus (B) meeting fees earned by such director during the quarter, by (ii) the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the last business day of the quarter for which such payment applied, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares.

Commencing in 2019, each non-employee director serving as of the beginning of each calendar year shall receive an annual award of the Company’s common stock valued at $20,000 (the “Annual Award”). The number of shares awarded will be calculated based on the trailing 20-day average price of the Company’s common stock as of the date two business days prior to the date of the award, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the expense recognized for the value of the Company’s common stock received by non-employee directors totaled approximately $443,000, or 7,653 shares, and $116,000, or 2,781 shares, respectively. The 2019 amount includes the approximately $174,000 Annual Award received during the first quarter of 2019. 

 

NOTE 18. INCOME TAXES

The Company’s effective income tax rate was 25.2% and 25.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The provision for income taxes reflects the Company’s estimate of the effective rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year, adjusted for any discrete events, which are reported in the period that they occur. There were no discrete events during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 or 2018.

The Company has filed, or will file, a consolidated income tax return in the United States Federal jurisdiction and the states of Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Texas, Virginia, Washington, and Wisconsin. The Internal Revenue Service has audited the federal tax returns through the year 2012, with all proposed adjustments settled. The Florida Department of Revenue has audited the Florida tax returns through the year 2014, with all proposed adjustments settled. The Company recognizes all potential accrued interest and penalties to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

NOTE 19. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company may be a party to certain legal proceedings, incidental to the normal course of its business. While the outcome of the legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.

On November 21, 2011, the Company, Indigo Mallard Creek LLC and Indigo Development LLC, as owners of the property leased to Harris Teeter, Inc. (“Harris Teeter”) in Charlotte, North Carolina, were served with pleadings filed in the General Court of Justice, Superior Court Division for Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, for a highway condemnation action involving this property. The proposed road modifications would impact access to the property. The Company does not believe the road modifications provided a basis for Harris Teeter to terminate the lease. Regardless, in January 2013, the North Carolina Department of Transportation (“NCDOT”) proposed to redesign the road modifications to keep the all access intersection open for ingress with no change to the planned limitation on egress to the right-in/right-out only. Additionally, NCDOT and the City of Charlotte proposed to build and maintain a new access road/point into the property. Construction has begun and is not expected to be completed until 2019. Harris Teeter has expressed satisfaction with the redesigned project and indicated that it will not attempt to terminate its lease if this project is built as currently redesigned. Because the redesigned project will not be completed until 2019, the condemnation case has been placed in administrative closure. As a result, the trial and mediation will not likely be scheduled until requested by the parties, most likely in 2020.

Contractual Commitments – Expenditures

In connection with the Golf Course Land Purchase (hereinafter defined),  each year the Company is obligated to pay the City of Daytona Beach, Florida (the “City”) additional consideration in the amount of an annual surcharge of $1 per golf round played (the “Per-Round Surcharge”) with an annual minimum Per-Round Surcharge of $70,000 and a maximum aggregate amount of the Per-Round Surcharges paid equal to $700,000. The maximum amount of $700,000 represents contingent consideration and was recorded as an increase in Golf Buildings, Improvements, and Equipment and Accrued and Other Liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets during the year ended December 31, 2017. The first two annual payments of $70,000 each were made in January of 2018 and January of 2019, leaving a remaining commitment of $560,000 as of September 30, 2019. As more fully described in Note 22, “Subsequent Events,” in connection with the Company’s sale of the Golf Club in October 2019, the Company paid the remaining $560,000 to the City leaving no remaining commitment as of October 18, 2019.

Other Matters

In connection with a certain land sale contract to which the Company is a party, the purchaser’s pursuit of customary development entitlements gave rise to an inquiry by federal regulatory agencies regarding prior agricultural activities by the Company on such land. During the second quarter of 2015, we received a written information request regarding such activities. We submitted a written response to the information request along with supporting documentation. During the fourth quarter of 2015, based on discussions with the agency, a penalty related to this matter was deemed probable, and accordingly the estimated penalty of $187,500 was accrued as of December 31, 2015, for which payment was made during the quarter ended September 30, 2016. Also, during the fourth quarter of 2015, the agency advised the Company that the resolution to the inquiry would likely require the Company to incur costs associated with wetlands restoration relating to approximately 148.4 acres of the Company’s land. At December 31, 2015, the Company’s third-party environmental engineers estimated the cost for such restoration activities to range from approximately $1.7 million to approximately $1.9 million. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2015, the Company accrued an obligation of approximately $1.7 million, representing the low end of the estimated range of possible restoration costs, and included such estimated costs on the consolidated balance sheets as an increase in the basis of our land and development costs associated with those and benefitting surrounding acres. As of September 30, 2016, the final proposal from the Company’s third-party environmental engineer was received reflecting a total cost of approximately $2.0 million. Accordingly, an increase in the accrual of approximately $300,000 was made during the second quarter of 2016. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company received a revised estimate for completion of the restoration work for which the adjusted final total cost was approximately $2.4 million. Accordingly, an increase in the accrual of approximately $361,000 was recorded during the first quarter of 2019. The Company has funded approximately $2.2 million of the total $2.4 million of estimated costs through September 30, 2019, leaving a remaining accrual of approximately $166,000. The Company believes there is at least a reasonable possibility that the estimated remaining liability of approximately $166,000 could change within one year of the date of the consolidated financial statements, which in turn could have a

36

material impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and future cash flows. The Company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis; however, actual results may differ from those estimates.

During the first quarter of 2017, the Company completed the sale of approximately 1,581 acres of land to Minto Communities LLC which acreage represents a portion of the Company’s remaining $713,000 obligation. Accordingly, the Company deposited $423,000 of cash in escrow to secure performance on the obligation. The funds in escrow can be drawn upon completion of certain milestones including completion of restoration and annual required monitoring. The first such milestone was achieved during the fourth quarter of 2017 and $189,500 of the escrow was refunded. The second milestone related to the completion of the first-year maintenance and monitoring was achieved during the first quarter of 2019 and $77,833 of the escrow was refunded leaving an escrow balance of approximately $156,000 as of September 30, 2019. Additionally, resolution of the regulatory matter required the Company to apply for an additional permit pertaining to an additional approximately 54.66 acres, which permit may require mitigation activities which the Company anticipates could be satisfied through the utilization of existing mitigation credits owned by the Company or the acquisition of mitigation credits. Resolution of this matter allowed the Company to obtain certain permits from the applicable federal or state regulatory agencies needed in connection with the closing of the land sale contract that gave rise to this matter. As of September 30, 2017, the Company determined that approximately 36 mitigation credits were required to be utilized, which represents approximately $298,000 in cost basis of the Company’s mitigation credits. Accordingly, the Company transferred the mitigation credits through a charge to direct cost of revenues of real estate operations during the three months ended September 30, 2017, thereby resolving the required mitigation activities related to the approximately 54.66 acres. In addition, in connection with other land sale contracts to which the Company is or may become a party, the pursuit of customary development entitlements by the potential purchasers may require the Company to utilize or acquire mitigation credits for the purpose of obtaining certain permits from the applicable federal or state regulatory agencies. Any costs incurred in connection with utilizing or acquiring such credits would be incorporated into the basis of the land under contract. No amounts related to such potential future costs have been accrued as of September 30, 2019.

NOTE 20. BUSINESS SEGMENT DATA

The Company operates in four primary business segments: income properties, commercial loan investments, real estate operations, and golf operations. During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company commenced efforts to pursue the monetization of the assets comprising the golf operations segment. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the assets comprising the golf operations segment have been classified as held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, and the results of the golf operations segment have been classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Our income property operations consist primarily of income-producing properties, and our business plan is focused on investing in additional income-producing properties. Our income property operations accounted for 85.7% and 88.5% of our identifiable assets as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and 71.4% and 53.0% of our consolidated revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Our real estate operations primarily consist of revenues generated from land transactions and leasing, royalty income, and revenue from the release of surface entry rights from our Subsurface Interests.

The Company reports performance based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes. The Company’s reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products. They are managed separately because each segment requires different management techniques, knowledge, and skills.

NOTE 21. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company commenced efforts to pursue monetization of certain of its multi-tenant income properties and the assets comprising the golf operations segment. Accordingly, four multi-tenant income properties and the Golf Club were classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2018. Additionally, the golf operations segment qualifies as discontinued operations and have been reclassified as such in the accompanying consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

As described in Note 3, “Income Properties”, the Multi-Tenant Dispositions were completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 comprising $56.8 million of the reduction in assets held for sale. Additionally, the Westcliff property located in Fort Worth, Texas is no longer being actively marketed and was reclassified as held and used during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 comprising $14.6 million of the reduction in assets held for sale.

In October 2019, the Company completed the sale of the Golf Club. See Note 22,  “Subsequent Events” for a description of this transaction.

The following is a summary of assets held for sale as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

NOTE 22. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 16, 2019, the Company closed on the sale of a controlling interest in a wholly-owned entity that holds the Company’s remaining land portfolio of approximately 5,300 acres (the “Land Venture”), including the land parcels the Company currently has under contract, to certain funds managed by Magnetar Capital (“Magnetar”) for total proceeds to the Company of approximately $97.0 million (the “Land Venture Transaction”). The Land Venture is governed by the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement (the “LLC Agreement”), among the Company and the Magnetar Investors.  As a result of the closing of the Purchase Agreement, the Magnetar Investors collectively own a notional 66.50% interest in the Land Venture, and the Company owns a notional 33.50% interest in the Land Venture. The Company may, in the future, receive additional proceeds from the Land Venture in the form of distributions under certain circumstances, based upon the timing and amount realized when the land is ultimately sold by the Land Venture. There can be no assurance as to the likelihood or receiving such distributions, or the amount or timing thereof. The Company filed a current report on Form 8-K on October 22, 2019, as amended, which provides a description of the Land Venture Transaction and related transactional documents in greater detail and includes as exhibits the Purchase Agreement and the LLC Agreement.

On October 18, 2019, the Company closed on the sale of the assets comprising the golf operations segment, consisting of the Golf Club, for total proceeds to the Company of approximately $3.45 million (the “Golf Transaction”). The Company provided the buyer, an affiliate of Fore Golf Services, Inc. (“Fore Golf”), financing in the form of a $2.07 million first mortgage loan (the “Fore Golf Loan”). The Fore Golf Loan is interest-only with a term of one-year and a fixed interest rate of 7.5%. The Company received an origination fee on the Fore Golf Loan of 1.5%, or $31,050. In addition, the Company paid off its remaining liability to the City totaling approximately $560,000, which related to the per round surcharge the Company agreed to pay the City in connection with the Company’s prior buy-out of the land lease with the City. As part of the Golf Transaction, Fore Golf agreed to pay the Company approximately $560,000 in the future based on a per round surcharge of $1.50 per round for each round played at the Golf Club.

On October 23, 2019, the Company announced its intention to sell or contribute 20 of its single-tenant net least income properties to a newly formed independent single-tenant net lease real estate investment trust (“REIT”), Alpine Income Property Trust, Inc. (“Alpine” or “PINE”). The Company has sponsored Alpine prior to its planned initial public offering (the “PINE IPO”). Alpine was formed by CTO as a single-tenant net lease REIT and its IPO is intended to raise the necessary capital to acquire 15 of the 20 assets for approximately $125.9 million in cash and as part of Alpine’s formation the Company will contribute 5 of the income properties in exchange for approximately 1.2 million units in Alpine’s operating partnership (“OP Units”), with an estimated value of approximately $24.5 million based on the current expected mid-point of the price range of the PINE IPO. CTO intends to invest $7.5 million in the common stock in PINE through a private placement concurrent with the PINE IPO. Following completion of the PINE IPO and related formation transactions, CTO expects to own approximately 17.5% of PINE based on the Company’s aggregate ownership of OP Units, approximately 13.4%, and the PINE shares, approximately 4.1%, purchased in the private placement. A wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company will serve as external manager of PINE subject to a management agreement that provides for an annual base management fee equal to 1.5% of the total equity of PINE and with the opportunity to earn an incentive fee that is based on exceeding a set total return for PINE’s shareholders.

OVERVIEW

We are a diversified real estate operating company. We own and manage, sometimes utilizing third-party property management companies, fifty-two commercial real estate properties in seventeen states in the United States. As of September 30, 2019, we (i) owned forty-eight single-tenant and four multi-tenant income-producing properties with approximately 2.3 million square feet of gross leasable space; (ii) owned the LPGA International Golf Club, which is managed by a third party and classified as held for sale (the “Golf Club”); (iii) held two commercial loan investments; (iv) owned and managed a portfolio of undeveloped land totaling approximately 5,300 acres in Daytona Beach, Florida; and (v) leased some of our land for seventeen billboards; have agricultural operations that are managed by a third party, which consist of leasing land for hay production and timber harvesting; and own and manage Subsurface Interests (hereinafter defined).

In October 2019, the Company completed the sale of a controlling interest in a wholly-owned entity that holds the Company’s Daytona Beach land portfolio of approximately 5,300 acres. Additionally, in October 2019, the Company completed the sale of the Golf Club. See Note 22,  “Subsequent Events” for a description of these transactions.

Income Property Operations. We have pursued a strategy of investing in income-producing properties, when possible by utilizing the proceeds from real estate transactions qualifying for income tax deferral through like-kind exchange treatment for tax purposes.

Our strategy for investing in income-producing properties is focused on long-term real estate fundamentals and target major markets and markets experiencing significant economic growth. As described below, three multi-tenant income properties were sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as part of refining the focus of our strategy on investing in single-tenant net lease income properties. We employ a methodology for evaluating targeted investments in income-producing properties which includes an evaluation of: (i) the attributes of the real estate (e.g. location, market demographics, comparable properties in the market, etc.); (ii) an evaluation of the existing tenant(s) (e.g. credit-worthiness, property level sales, tenant rent levels compared to the market, etc.); (iii) other market-specific conditions (e.g. tenant industry, job and population growth in the market, local economy, etc.); and (iv) considerations relating to the Company’s business and strategy (e.g. strategic fit of the asset type, property management needs, alignment with the Company’s 1031 like-kind exchange structure, etc.).

2019 Acquisitions. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company acquired nine single-tenant income properties for a purchase price of approximately $90.0 million, or an acquisition cost of approximately $90.6 million including capitalized acquisition costs. Of the total acquisition cost, approximately $27.8 million was allocated to land, approximately $37.7 million was allocated to buildings and improvements, approximately $9.2 million was allocated to intangible assets pertaining to the in-place lease value, leasing fees, and above market lease value, and approximately $0.4 million was allocated to intangible liabilities for the below market lease value. The remaining approximately $16.3 million was classified as a commercial loan investment as described below and in Note 6, “Commercial Loan Investments.”

(1)The ground lease with The Carpenter Hotel includes two tenant repurchase options. Pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 842, Leases, the $16.25 million investment has been recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2019 as a commercial loan investment. See Note 6, “Commercial Loan Investments.”

2019 Dispositions. One single-tenant income property was disposed of during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 as follows:

·

On August 7, 2019, the Company sold its 1.56-acre outparcel subject to a ground lease with Wawa located in Winter Park, Florida for approximately $2.8 million (the “Wawa Sale”). The property is an outparcel to the Grove at Winter Park which the Company sold in May 2019. The gain on the Wawa Sale totaled approximately $2.1million, or approximately $0.33 per share, after tax.

Additionally, three multi-tenant income properties, which were classified in Assets Held for Sale as of December 31, 2018, were disposed of during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 (the “Multi-Tenant Dispositions”) as described below. The Multi-Tenant Dispositions continue the Company’s objective of transitioning the income property portfolio to primarily single-tenant net lease properties.

·

On June 24, 2019, the Company sold its approximately 76,000 square foot multi-tenant retail property located in Santa Clara, California for approximately $37.0 million (the “Peterson Sale”). The gain on the Peterson Sale totaled approximately $9.0 million, or approximately $1.36 per share, after tax.

·

On May 23, 2019, the Company sold its approximately 112,000 square foot multi-tenant retail property, anchored by a 24 Hour Fitness, located in Winter Park, Florida for approximately $18.25 million (the “Grove Sale”). The gain on the Grove Sale totaled approximately $2.8 million, or approximately $0.42 per share, after tax.

·

On February 21, 2019, the Company sold its approximately 59,000 square foot multi-tenant retail property, anchored by a Whole Foods Market retail store, located in Sarasota, Florida for approximately $24.62 million (the “Whole Foods Sale”). The gain on the Whole Foods Sale totaled approximately $6.9 million, or approximately $0.96 per share, after tax.

2019 Leasing Activity. On July 16, 2019, the Company entered into a lease termination agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) with Cocina 214, the tenant of one of the Company’s beachfront restaurant properties located in Daytona Beach, Florida. Pursuant to the Termination Agreement, the Company agreed to fund Cocina 214 approximately $1.0 million of their original contribution towards the completion of the building and tenant improvements and other personal property as described in Note 16, “Deferred Revenue.” Additionally, pursuant to the Termination Agreement, the Company collected the balance of unpaid rent of approximately $0.3 million that was due through the date Cocina 214 vacated the property. Accordingly, the Company made a net payment to Cocina 214 of approximately $693,000 in August 2019 (the “Termination Payment”).

42

Table of Contents

On July 18, 2019, the Company entered into a lease agreement with Broken Hook, LLC to operate the beachfront restaurant as Crabby’s Oceanside Daytona Beach (the “Crabby’s Lease”). The Crabby’s Lease commenced on August 4, 2019 with rent commencing on August 26, 2019 and has an original lease term of ten years with four five-year renewal options.

Our current portfolio of forty-eight single-tenant income properties generates approximately $36.1 million of revenues from base lease payments on an annualized basis and had an average remaining lease term of 11.8 years as of September 30, 2019. Our current portfolio of four multi-tenant properties generates approximately $3.9 million of revenue from base lease payments on an annualized basis and has a weighted average remaining lease term of 2.9 years as of September 30, 2019.

As part of our overall strategy for investing in income-producing properties, we self-developed five multi-tenant office properties, all of which are located in Daytona Beach, Florida. One of these properties was sold in 2016, while the other four were sold during the first quarter of 2018 in the Self-Developed Properties Sale. 

We also self-developed two single-tenant net lease restaurant properties on a 6-acre beachfront parcel in Daytona Beach, Florida. The development was completed in January of 2018, at which point rent commenced under the leases; therefore, during the first quarter of 2018, these two properties were added to our income property portfolio. On a limited basis, we have acquired and may continue to selectively acquire other real estate, either vacant land or land with existing structures, that we would demolish and develop into additional income properties, possibly in the downtown and beachside areas of Daytona Beach, Florida. During 2018, we invested approximately $4.7 million to acquire approximately 6.0 acres in downtown Daytona Beach that is located in an opportunity zone and a community redevelopment area. Specifically, our investments in the Daytona Beach area would target opportunistic acquisitions of select catalyst sites, which are typically distressed, with an objective of having short investment horizons. Should we pursue such acquisitions, we may seek to partner with developers to develop these sites rather than self-develop the properties. See Real Estate Operations for a discussion of such real estate acquired to date.  

Our focus on acquiring income-producing investments includes a continual review of our existing income property portfolio to identify opportunities to recycle our capital through the sale of income properties based on, among other possible factors, the current or expected performance of the property and favorable market conditions. During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company commenced efforts to pursue the monetization of certain of its multi-tenant income properties, for which the sale of three multi-tenant properties were completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 with the Company reinvesting the proceeds from these dispositions into single-tenant net lease income properties.

Real Estate Operations.  As of September 30, 2019, the Company owned approximately 5,300 acres of undeveloped land in Daytona Beach, Florida, along six miles of the west and east sides of Interstate 95. Currently, a significant amount of this land is used for agricultural purposes. As of October 21, 2019, approximately 30% of this acreage, over 1,500 acres, is under contract to be sold. Approximately 800 acres of our land holdings are located on the east side of Interstate 95 and are generally well-suited for commercial development. Approximately 4,500 acres of our land holdings are located on the west side of Interstate 95 and the majority of this land is generally well-suited for residential development. Included in the western land is approximately 1,000 acres, primarily an 850-acre parcel and three smaller parcels, which are located further west of Interstate 95 and a few miles north of Interstate 4 that are generally well-suited for industrial purposes.

In October 2019, the Company completed the sale of a controlling interest in a wholly-owned entity that holds the Company’s remaining Daytona Beach land portfolio of approximately 5,300 acres. See Note 22,  “Subsequent Events” for a description of this transaction.

Land Impairments. There were no impairment charges related to the Company’s undeveloped land during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 or 2018. 

Daytona Beach Development. We may selectively acquire other real estate in Daytona Beach, Florida. We may target either vacant land or land with existing structures that we would demolish and develop into additional income properties. During 2018, the Company acquired a 5-acre parcel of land with existing structures in downtown Daytona Beach, for a purchase price of approximately $2.0 million. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had also acquired other contiguous parcels totaling approximately 1-acre for approximately $2.1 million. Combined, these parcels represent the substantial portion of an entire city block in downtown Daytona Beach adjacent to International Speedway Boulevard, a major thoroughfare in Daytona Beach. The combined 6 acres is located in an opportunity zone and a community redevelopment area. In addition, this property is proximate to the future headquarters of Brown & Brown Inc., the sixth largest insurance broker in the U.S. and a publicly listed company, that is expected to be occupied by at least 600 of their employees. We have engaged a national real estate brokerage firm to assist us in identifying a developer or investor to acquire a portion or all of the property or to contribute into a potential joint venture to redevelop the property. We are pursuing entitlements for the potential redevelopment of these parcels, along with certain other adjacent land parcels, some of which we have under contract for purchase. As of September 30, 2019, we have incurred approximately $0.8 million in demolition and entitlement costs related to these parcels. Our intent for investments in the Daytona Beach area is to target opportunistic acquisitions of select catalyst sites, which are typically distressed, with the objective of short-to-medium investment horizons. We may enter into joint ventures or other partnerships to develop land we have acquired or may acquire in the future in lieu of self-developing.

Other Real Estate Assets. The Company owns impact fees with a cost basis of approximately $2,000 and mitigation credits with a cost basis of approximately $445,000 for a combined total of approximately $447,000 as of September 30, 2019. There were no impact fee or mitigation credit sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company transferred mitigation credits with a basis of approximately $124,000 to the land acquired by Buc-ee’s. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company sold mitigation credits for approximately $1.0 million, for a gain of approximately $882,000, or $0.12 per share, after tax. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company received cash payments of approximately $251,000 for impact fees with a cost basis that was generally of equal value. Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, impact fees with a cost basis of approximately $72,000 were transferred to the beachfront restaurant leased to LandShark Bar & Grill.

Subsurface Interests. As of September 30, 2019, the Company owns full or fractional subsurface oil, gas, and mineral interests underlying approximately 455,000 “surface” acres of land owned by others in 20 counties in Florida (the “Subsurface Interests”). The Company leases certain of the Subsurface Interests to mineral exploration firms for exploration. Our subsurface operations consist of revenue from the leasing of exploration rights and in some instances, additional revenues from royalties applicable to production from the leased acreage.

There were no subsurface sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 or 2018.

During 2011, an eight-year oil exploration lease was executed covering a portion of our Subsurface Interests. On September 20, 2017, the Company amended the oil exploration lease to, among other things, extend the expiration of the original term for five additional years to the new expiration date of September 22, 2024. The lease is effectively thirteen one-year terms as the lessee has the option to terminate the lease at the end of each lease year. The lessee has exercised renewal options through lease year eight which ended September 22, 2019. The Company has granted the lessee a 30-day extension to determine whether the lease will be extended and, if so, the terms thereof. There can be no assurance that the oil exploration lease will be extended or, if extended, the terms or conditions of such extension. The terms of the lease state the Company will receive royalty payments if production occurs, and may receive additional annual rental payments if the lease is continued in years nine through thirteen. The lease calls for annual lease payments which are recognized as revenue ratably over the respective twelve-month lease periods. Pursuant to the amendment for the lease year eight renewal the annual lease payment is to be paid in installments. In addition, non-refundable drilling penalty payments are made as required by the drilling requirements in the lease which are recognized as revenue when earned, i.e. when the amount is agreed upon. The lessee, an affiliate of Kerogen Exploration LLC, has submitted a drilling permit application in Hendry County to allow for drilling to commence

(1)Generally, cash payment for the Lease Payment is received on or before the first day of the lease year. The Drilling Penalty, which is due within thirty days from the end of the prior lease year, is recorded as revenue when earned, i.e., when the amount is agreed upon, while the Lease Payment is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term.

Lease income generated by the annual lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the guaranteed lease term. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, lease income of approximately $186,000 and $586,000 was recognized. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, lease income of approximately $203,000 and $603,000 was recognized. There can be no assurance that the oil exploration lease will be extended beyond lease year eight which ended September 22, 2019 or, if extended, the terms or conditions of such extension.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company also received oil royalties from operating oil wells on 800 acres under a separate lease with a separate operator. Revenues received from oil royalties totaled approximately $10,000 and $11,000, during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Revenues received from oil royalties totaled approximately $39,000 and $50,000, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

The Company is not prohibited from the disposition of any or all of its Subsurface Interests. Should the Company complete a transaction to sell all or a portion of its Subsurface Interests, the Company may utilize the like-kind exchange structure in acquiring one or more replacement investments including income-producing properties. The Company may release surface entry rights or other rights upon request of a surface owner for a negotiated release fee typically based on a percentage of the surface value.

There were no releases of surface entry rights during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company completed a transaction releasing our surface entry rights on approximately 600 acres in exchange for approximately $185,000 in cash and fee title to approximately 40 additional acres in Hendry County, valued at approximately $320,000. Including the non-cash value received, the gain from the transaction totaled approximately $435,000, or $0.06 per share, after tax. The Company also received cash payments for the release of surface entry rights of approximately $73,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Discontinued Golf Operations Segment. The Company owns the LPGA International Golf Club (the “Club”), a semi-private golf club consisting of two 18-hole championship golf courses, one designed by Rees Jones and the other designed by Arthur Hills, with a three-hole practice facility also designed by Rees Jones, a clubhouse facility, food and beverage operations, and a fitness facility. The Golf Club is managed by a third party and is located within the LPGA International mixed-use residential community on the west side of Interstate 95 in the City.

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company wrote down the value of the golf operations assets, which resulted in a corresponding impairment charge of approximately $1.1 million, or $0.15 per share, after tax, during the third quarter of 2018. The write-down of the golf operation assets to approximately $3.1 million and the related $1.1 million impairment charge were the result of the Company’s assessment of certain triggering events, including activities related to a review of strategic alternatives for the golf operations segment, occurring during the third quarter of 2018, which required an assessment of the carrying value of the golf operations assets. In the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company commenced efforts to pursue the monetization of the assets comprising the golf operations segment. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the assets comprising the golf operations segment have been classified as held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the results of golf operations

segment have been classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

In October 2019, the Company completed the sale of the Golf Club. See Note 22,  “Subsequent Events” for a description of this transaction.

The above results for the third quarter of 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, reflected the following significant operating elements in addition to the impacts from the changes in revenues described above:

·

A decrease in total direct cost of revenues of approximately $5.5 million of which approximately $5.2 million is related to real estate operations, for which one of the land sales during the third quarter of 2018 had a higher land basis than the land sale during the third quarter of 2019, offset by a decrease of approximately $298,000 related to a reduction in income property portfolio expenses primarily due to the Multi-Tenant Dispositions;  

·

An increase in depreciation and amortization of approximately $552,000 which is primarily due to the increase in the income property portfolio;

·

An increase in the gain on disposition of assets of approximately $2.2 million due to the Wawa Sale during the third quarter of 2019 with no income property sales during the third quarter of 2018;

·

Increased interest expense of approximately $909,000 resulting from increased borrowings on our credit facility; and

·

A decrease in the loss from discontinued golf operations due primarily to the impairment charge during the third quarter of 2018 on golf operations of approximately $1.1 million, or $0.15 per share, after tax.

In addition, net income was impacted by an increase in general and administrative expenses of approximately $333,000 which is summarized as follows:

INCOME PROPERTIES

Total revenue and operating income from our income property operations totaled approximately $10.3 million and $8.8 million, respectively, during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, compared to total revenue and operating income of approximately $9.4 million and $7.6 million, respectively, for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. The direct costs of revenues for our income property operations totaled approximately $1.5 million and $1.8 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase in revenues of approximately $0.9 million, or 10%, during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, reflects our expanded portfolio of single-tenant income properties including increases of approximately $2.6 million due to recent acquisitions, offset by decreases of approximately $1.6 million related to the recent Multi-Tenant Dispositions. Revenue from our income properties during the quarters ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 also includes approximately $606,000 and $600,000, respectively, in revenue from the accretion of the below-market lease intangible, of which a significant portion is attributable to the property located in Raleigh, North Carolina, leased to Wells Fargo.

REAL ESTATE OPERATIONS

During the quarter ended September 30, 2019, operating income from real estate operations was approximately $290,000 on revenues totaling approximately $632,000. During the quarter ended September 30, 2018, operating income was approximately $2.4 million on revenues totaling approximately $8.0 million. The decrease in revenue of approximately $7.4 million, or 92%, is primarily attributable to the decrease in the gross sales price from land sales, specifically, the approximately $7.0 million in land sales revenue in the third quarter of 2018 versus the approximately $350,000 in land

48

Table of Contents

sales revenue in the third quarter of 2019. The increase in direct costs of revenues of approximately $5.2 million, or 94%, is primarily related to a decrease in the cost of land sales, as one of the land sales closed during the third quarter of 2018 had a higher land basis, due to it being a repurchased property than the land sale closed during the third quarter of 2019.

INTEREST INCOME FROM COMMERCIAL LOAN INVESTMENTS

Interest income from our commercial loan investments totaled approximately $855,000 and $41,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase is due to the new $8.0 million and $8.3 million mortgage loans originated in June 2019 and July 2019, respectively, as well as the approximately $16.3 million property acquired by the Company leased to The Carpenter Hotel which has been accounted for as a loan pursuant to FASB Topic ASC 842, Leases.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

General and administrative expenses totaled approximately $2.3 million and $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, an increase of approximately $333,000, or 17%. The increase is primarily related to an increase of non-cash stock compensation of approximately $169,000.

GAINS ON DISPOSITION OF ASSETS AND IMPAIRMENT CHARGES

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company sold its 1.56-acre outparcel subject to a ground lease with Wawa located in Winter Park, Florida for approximately $2.8 million (the “Wawa Sale”). The property is an outparcel to the Grove at Winter Park which the Company sold in May 2019. The gain on the Wawa Sale totaled approximately $2.1 million, or approximately $0.33 per share.

There were no asset sales during the three months ended September 30, 2018.

There were no impairment charges on the Company’s on the Company’s undeveloped land holdings, or its income property portfolio during the three months ended September 30, 2019 or 2018.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense totaled approximately $3.3 million and $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase of approximately $909,000 is primarily the result of increased borrowings on the Company’s credit facility for recent investment activity.

DISCONTINUED GOLF OPERATIONS SEGMENT

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the assets comprising the golf operations segment have been classified as held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the results of golf operations segment have been classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. 

Revenues from golf operations segment totaled approximately $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. The total direct cost of golf operations segment revenues totaled approximately $1.3 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The net operating loss before depreciation and income taxes of approximately $358,000 and approximately $374,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Additionally, an impairment charge on golf operations of approximately $1.1 million was recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2018, with no such impairment during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

In October 2019, the Company completed the sale of the Golf Club. See Note 22,  “Subsequent Events” for a description of this transaction.

The above results for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same period in 2018, reflected the following significant operating elements in addition to the impacts from the changes in revenues described above:

·

A decrease in total direct cost of revenues of approximately $2.2 million of which approximately $1.5 million is related to real estate operations, for which the land sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 had  higher land basis than the land sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Additionally, a decrease of approximately $634,000 was related to a reduction in income property portfolio expenses primarily due to the Multi-Tenant Dispositions;  

·

An increase in depreciation and amortization of approximately $421,000 which is primarily due to the increase in the income property portfolio offset by the classification of certain multi-tenant properties and the golf assets comprising the Golf Club as held for sale at the end of 2018 and therefore, those assets are no longer depreciating;

·

A decrease in the gain on disposition of assets of approximately $1.2 million due to the higher gains in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from the Self-Developed Properties Sale and the Mitigation Bank transaction as compared to the gains in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from the Multi-Tenant Dispositions and the Wawa Sale;

·

Increased interest expense of approximately $1.8 million resulting from increased borrowings on our credit facility; and

·

A decrease in the loss from discontinued golf operations due primarily to the impairment charge on golf operations of approximately $1.1 million, or $0.15 per share, after tax.

 

In addition, net income was impacted by a decrease in general and administrative expenses of approximately $299,000 which is summarized as follows:

INCOME PROPERTIES

Total revenue and operating income from our income property operations totaled approximately $31.4 million and $26.3 million, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to total revenue and operating income of approximately $28.3 million and $22.7 million, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The direct costs of revenues for our income property operations totaled approximately $5.0 million and $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase in revenues of approximately $3.0 million, or 11%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, reflects our expanded portfolio of single-tenant income properties including increases of approximately $6.3 million due to recent acquisitions, offset by decreases of approximately $2.6 million related to the recent Multi-Tenant Dispositions and Self-Developed Properties Sale. Additionally, the revenue related to our remaining portfolio decreased by approximately $786,000 primarily due to the timing of reimbursement revenue. Revenue from our income properties also includes approximately $1.8 million, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, in revenue from the accretion of the below-market lease intangible, of which a significant portion is attributable to the property located in Raleigh, North Carolina, leased to Wells Fargo.

REAL ESTATE OPERATIONS

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, operating income from real estate operations was approximately $5.2 million on revenues totaling approximately $11.7 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, operating income was approximately $18.5 million on revenues totaling approximately $24.5 million. The decrease in revenue of approximately $12.8 million, or 52%, is primarily attributable to the decrease in the gross sales price from land sales, specifically, the approximately $11.1 million in land sales revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 versus the approximately $22.6 million in land sales revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease in direct costs of revenues of approximately $1.5 million is primarily attributable to the land sales

during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 having a higher land basis than the land sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

INTEREST INCOME FROM COMMERCIAL LOAN INVESTMENTS

Interest income from our commercial loan investments totaled approximately $908,000 and $616,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company held two loans during the first part of 2018 prior to their maturities and repayment in June 2018 and August 2018. The Company held no commercial loan investments during 2019 until the new $8.0 million and $8.3 million mortgage loans were originated in June 2019 and July 2019, respectively, as well as the approximately $16.3 million property acquired by the Company leased to The Carpenter Hotel which has been accounted for as a loan pursuant to FASB Topic ASC 842, Leases.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

General and administrative expenses totaled approximately $6.9 million and $7.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of approximately $299,000. The decrease is primarily related to decreases in costs incurred to address the shareholder and proxy matters of approximately $819,000, which is partially offset by an increase of non-cash stock compensation of approximately $602,000. The increase in non-cash stock

compensation includes approximately $160,000 in an Annual Award (previously defined in Note 17, “Stock-Based

Compensation”) to non-employee directors.

GAINS ON DISPOSITION OF ASSETS AND IMPAIRMENT CHARGES

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, three multi-tenant income properties, which were classified in Assets Held for Sale as of December 31, 2018, were disposed of. Additionally, one single-tenant property was disposed of. The Wawa Sale was completed in August 2019 at a sale price of approximately $2.8 million for a gain of approximately $2.1 million, or approximately $0.33 per share, after tax. The Peterson Sale was completed in June 2019 at a sales price of approximately $37.0 million for a gain of approximately $9.0 million, or approximately $1.36 per share, after tax. The Grove Sale was completed in May 2019 at a sales price of approximately $18.25 million for a gain of approximately $2.8 million, or approximately $0.42 per share, after tax. The Whole Foods Sale was completed in February 2019 at a sales price of approximately $24.62 million for a gain of approximately $6.9 million, or approximately $0.96 per share, after tax. These sales continue the Company’s objective of transitioning the income property portfolio to primarily single-tenant net lease properties.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company completed the sale of a 70% interest in the Mitigation Bank that holds approximately 2,492 acres of land for proceeds of $15.3 million. The gain on the sale totaled approximately $18.4 million and is comprised of (i) the gain on the sale of the 70% interest for proceeds of $15.3 million and (ii) the gain on the 30% retained interest. Additionally, the Self-Developed Properties Sale was completed in March 2018 at a sales price of approximately $11.4 million for a gain of approximately $3.7 million, or $0.49 per share, after tax.

There were no impairment charges during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 or 2018 on the Company’s undeveloped land or its income property portfolio.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense totaled approximately $9.2 million and $7.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase of approximately $1.8 million is primarily the result of increased borrowings on the Company’s credit facility for recent investment activity.

DISCONTINUED GOLF OPERATIONS SEGMENT

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the assets comprising the golf operations segment have been classified as held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the results of golf operations segment have been classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. 

52

Table of Contents

Revenues from golf operations segment totaled approximately $3.9 million and $3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The total direct cost of golf operations segment revenues totaled approximately $4.7 million and $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company’s golf operations segment had a net operating loss before depreciation and income taxes of approximately $793,000 and approximately $643,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were negatively impacted by capital improvements of approximately $236,000 and survey costs of approximately $130,000 that were expensed as incurred. Additionally, an impairment charge on golf operations of approximately $1.1 million was recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2018, with no such impairment during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

In October 2019, the Company completed the sale of the Golf Club. See Note 22,  “Subsequent Events” for a description of this transaction.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Restricted cash totaled approximately $6.2 million at September 30, 2019 of which approximately $2.7 million is being held in a separate escrow account to be reinvested through the like-kind exchange structure into other income properties; approximately $1.1 million is being held in an entitlement and interest reserve for the $8.0 million first mortgage loan investment originated in June 2019; approximately $160,000 is being held in an interest reserve for the $8.3 million first mortgage loan originated in July 2019; approximately $989,000 is being held in two separate escrow accounts related to two separate land transactions which closed in February 2017 and March 2018; approximately $248,000 is being held in a capital replacement reserve account in connection with our financing of six income properties with Wells Fargo Bank, NA (“Wells Fargo”); and approximately $1.1 million is being held in a general tenant improvement reserve account with Wells Fargo in connection with our financing of the property located in Raleigh, NC leased to Wells Fargo.

Our total cash balance at September 30, 2019, reflected cash flows provided by our operating activities totaling approximately $16.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the prior year’s cash flows provided by operating activities totaling approximately $22.6 million in the same period in 2018, a decrease of approximately $5.9 million.

Our cash flows used in investing activities totaled approximately $27.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the prior year’s cash flows provided by investing activities totaling approximately $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, a decrease of cash of approximately $30.4 million. The decrease is primarily related to proceeds of approximately $80.3 million of cash received by the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, which consisted of the cash received from the Multi-Tenant Dispositions and the Wawa Sale, versus the approximately $26.4 million of cash received during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from the Self-Developed Properties Sale and the Mitigation Bank transaction. This increase in proceeds from dispositions of approximately $53.9 million was partially offset by the cash outflows used for income property acquisitions and loan originations of approximately $107.6 million and $29.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, an increase in total investment activity of approximately $78.2 million.

Our cash flows provided by financing activities totaled approximately $164,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the prior year’s cash flows used in financing activities totaling approximately $24.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, an increase in cash provided by financing activities of approximately $25.1 million. The increase in cash provided by financing activities is primarily related to net borrowings on long-term debt of approximately $33.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, versus net repayments on long-term debt totaling approximately $19.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018, for a net increase in cash received related to our long-term debt of approximately $53.1 million. Offsetting the impact of our net borrowings was the use of funds of approximately $31.1 million of stock buybacks during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, versus approximately $4.0 million of stock buybacks during the same period in 2018, an increase in cash outflows for stock buybacks of approximately $27.1 million.

Our long-term debt balance, at face value, totaled approximately $283.9 million at September 30, 2019, representing an increase of approximately $33.6 million from the face value balance of approximately $250.3 million at December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily due to the approximately $33.6 million in net borrowings on our revolving credit facility.

(1)Secured by the Company’s interest in six income properties. The mortgage loan carries a fixed rate of 4.33% per annum during the first ten years of the term, and requires payments of interest only during the first ten years of the loan. After the tenth anniversary of the effective date of the loan, the cash flows, as defined in the related loan agreement, generated by the underlying six income properties must be used to pay down the principal balance of the loan until paid off or until the loan matures. The loan is fully pre-payable after the tenth anniversary of the effective date of the loan.

(2)Secured by the Company’s income property leased to Wells Fargo located in Raleigh, North Carolina. The mortgage loan has a 5-year term with two years interest only, and interest and a 25-year amortization for the balance of the term. The mortgage loan bears a variable rate of interest based on the 30-day LIBOR plus a rate of 190 basis points. The interest rate for this mortgage loan has been fixed through the use of an interest rate swap that fixed the rate at 3.17%. The mortgage loan can be prepaid at any time subject to the termination of the interest rate swap. Amortization of the principal balance began in May 2018.

Credit Facility. The Company’s revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), with Bank of Montreal (“BMO”) serving as the administrative agent for the lenders thereunder, is unsecured with regard to our income property portfolio but is guaranteed by certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. The Credit Facility bank group is led by BMO and also includes Wells Fargo and Branch Banking & Trust Company. On September 7, 2017, the Company executed the second amendment and restatement of the Credit Facility (the “2017 Amended Credit Facility”).

On May 24, 2019, the Company executed the second amendment to the 2017 Amended Credit Facility (the “2019 Revolver Amendment”). As a result of the 2019 Revolver Amendment, the Credit Facility has a total borrowing capacity of $200.0 million with the ability to increase that capacity up to $300.0 million during the term, subject to lender approval. The Credit Facility provides the lenders with a security interest in the equity of the Company subsidiaries that own the properties included in the borrowing base. The indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Facility accrues interest at a rate ranging from the 30-day LIBOR plus 135 basis points to the 30-day LIBOR plus 195 basis points based on the total balance outstanding under the Credit Facility as a percentage of the total asset value of the Company, as defined in the 2017 Amended Credit Facility, as amended by the 2019 Revolver Amendment. The Credit Facility also accrues a fee of 15 to 25 basis points for any unused portion of the borrowing capacity based on whether the unused portion is greater or less than 50% of the total borrowing capacity. Pursuant to the 2019 Revolver Amendment, the Credit Facility matures on May 24, 2023,  with the ability to extend the term for 1 year.

At September 30, 2019, the current commitment level under the Credit Facility was $200.0 million. The available borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility was approximately $36.9 million, based on the level of borrowing base assets. As of September 30, 2019, the Credit Facility had a $154.8 million balance outstanding.  

The Credit Facility is subject to customary restrictive covenants including, but not limited to, limitations on the Company’s ability to: (a) incur indebtedness; (b) make certain investments; (c) incur certain liens; (d) engage in certain affiliate transactions; and (e) engage in certain major transactions such as mergers. In addition, the Company is subject to various financial maintenance covenants including, but not limited to, a maximum indebtedness ratio, a maximum secured indebtedness ratio, and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. The Credit Facility also contains affirmative covenants and events of default including, but not limited to, a cross default to the Company’s other indebtedness and upon the occurrence of a change in control. The Company’s failure to comply with these covenants or the occurrence of an event of default could result in acceleration of the Company’s debt and other financial obligations under the Credit Facility.

Table of Contents

Mortgage Notes Payable. In addition to the Credit Facility, the Company has certain other borrowings, as noted in the table above, all of which are non-recourse.

Convertible Debt. The Company’s $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50% Convertible Notes will mature on March 15, 2020, unless earlier purchased or converted. The initial conversion rate was 14.5136 shares of common stock for each $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, which represented an initial conversion price of approximately $68.90 per share of common stock. Since July of 2016, when the Company’s Board of Directors implemented a quarterly dividend in place of the previous semi-annual dividend and subsequent increases to the quarterly dividend, the conversion rate has been adjusted with each successive quarterly dividend and is currently, after the third quarter 2019 dividend, equal to 14.6571 shares of common stock for each $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, which represents an adjusted conversion price of approximately $68.23 per share of common stock.

The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. Holders may not surrender their Convertible Notes for conversion prior to December 15, 2019, except upon the occurrence of certain conditions relating to the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock, the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, or specified corporate events including a change in control of the Company. The Company may not redeem the Convertible Notes prior to the stated maturity date and no sinking fund is provided for the Convertible Notes. The Convertible Notes are convertible, at the election of the Company, into solely cash, solely shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company intends to settle the Convertible Notes in cash upon conversion, with any excess conversion value to be settled in shares of our common stock. In accordance with GAAP, the Convertible Notes are accounted for as a liability with a separate equity component recorded for the conversion option. A liability was recorded for the Convertible Notes on the issuance date at fair value based on a discounted cash flow analysis using current market rates for debt instruments with similar terms. The difference between the initial proceeds from the Convertible Notes and the estimated fair value of the debt instruments resulted in a debt discount, with an offset recorded to additional paid-in capital representing the equity component. The discount on the Convertible Notes was approximately $6.1 million at issuance, which represents the cash discount paid of approximately $2.6 million and the approximate $3.5 million attributable to the value of the conversion option recorded in equity, which is being amortized into interest expense through the maturity date of the Convertible Notes. As of September 30, 2019, the unamortized debt discount of our Convertible Notes was approximately $641,000.

The Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants as of September 30, 2019, but for a covenant in its Credit Facility that pertains solely to the Company’s stock buyback program. The covenant, set forth in Section 8.8(n) of the Credit Facility, is a secondary fixed charge coverage ratio which incorporates stock buyback activity and incremental land sales, on a rolling twelve-month basis, into the fixed charge coverage ratio and requires that a 1.5x ratio be maintained (the “Buyback Fixed-Charge Coverage Ratio”). As of September 30, 2019, the Buyback Fixed-Charge Coverage Ratio was below the required 1.5x due primarily to (i) the Company’s second quarter 2019 stock buyback activity, including the significant share repurchase transaction in April 2019 in connection with the liquidation by the Company’s then-largest shareholder of its position in Company stock, and (ii) certain land sales transactions anticipated for the third quarter of 2019 not having occurred. The Credit Facility lenders executed a written waiver of the Buyback Fixed-Charge Coverage Ratio covenant effective as of September 30, 2019. Based on the Company’s closing of the Land Venture Transaction (as defined in Note 22, “Subsequent Events”), the Company estimates that it will be in compliance with this covenant through year-end 2019. The Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants as of December 31, 2018.

Acquisitions and Investments. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company acquired nine single-tenant income properties for a purchase price of approximately $90.0 million, or an acquisition cost of approximately $90.6 million including capitalized acquisition costs. Of the total acquisition cost, approximately $27.8 million was allocated to land, approximately $37.7 million was allocated to buildings and improvements, approximately $9.2 million was allocated to intangible assets pertaining to the in-place lease value, leasing fees, and above market lease value, and approximately $0.4 million was allocated to intangible liabilities for the below market lease value. The remaining approximately $16.3 million was classified as a commercial loan investment as described below and in Note 6, “Commercial Loan Investments.” The weighted average amortization period for the intangible assets and liabilities was approximately 9.8 years at acquisition.

(1)The ground lease with The Carpenter Hotel includes two tenant repurchase options. Pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 842, Leases, the $16.25 million investment has been recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2019 as a commercial loan investment. See Note 6, “Commercial Loan Investments.”

The Company’s guidance for 2019 investments in income-producing properties totaled between $80 million and $120 million. Although we have achieved the low end of the range of guidance, the Company anticipates additional investments in income-producing properties which we expect to fund utilizing available capacity under our credit facility, cash from operations, proceeds from land sales transactions, possibly the proceeds from the dispositions of income properties, and potentially the proceeds from the sale of all or a portion of our Subsurface Interests, each of which we expect will qualify under the like-kind exchange deferred-tax structure, and additional financing sources.

Dispositions. One single-tenant income property was disposed of during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 as follows:

·

On August 7, 2019, the Company sold its 1.56-acre outparcel subject to a ground lease with Wawa located in Winter Park, Florida for approximately $2.8 million (the “Wawa Sale”). The property is an outparcel to the Grove at Winter Park which the Company sold in May 2019. The gain on the Wawa Sale totaled approximately $2.1 million, or approximately $0.33 per share, after tax.

Additionally, three multi-tenant income properties, which were classified in Assets Held for Sale as of December 31, 2018, were disposed of during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 (the “Multi-Tenant Dispositions”) as described below. The Multi-Tenant Dispositions continue the Company’s objective of transitioning the income property portfolio to primarily single-tenant net lease properties.

·

On June 24, 2019, the Company sold its approximately 76,000 square foot multi-tenant retail property located in Santa Clara, California for approximately $37.0 million (the “Peterson Sale”). The gain on the Peterson Sale totaled approximately $9.0 million, or approximately $1.36 per share, after tax.

·

On May 23, 2019, the Company sold its approximately 112,000 square foot multi-tenant retail property, anchored by a 24 Hour Fitness, located in Winter Park, Florida for approximately $18.25 million (the “Grove Sale”). The gain on the Grove Sale totaled approximately $2.8 million, or approximately $0.42 per share, after tax.

·

On February 21, 2019, the Company sold its approximately 59,000 square foot multi-tenant retail property, anchored by a Whole Foods Market retail store, located in Sarasota, Florida for approximately $24.62 million (the “Whole Foods Sale”). The gain on the Whole Foods Sale totaled approximately $6.9 million, or approximately $0.96 per share, after tax.

Capital Expenditures. In connection with the Golf Course Land Purchase,  each year the Company is obligated to pay the City additional consideration in the amount of an annual surcharge of $1 per golf round played (the “Per-Round Surcharge”) with an annual minimum Per-Round Surcharge of $70,000 and a maximum aggregate amount of the Per-Round Surcharges paid equal to $700,000. The maximum amount of $700,000 represents contingent consideration and was recorded as an increase in Golf Buildings, Improvements, and Equipment and Accrued and Other Liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets during the year ended December 31, 2017. The first two annual payments of $70,000 each were made in January of 2018 and January of 2019, leaving a remaining commitment of $560,000 as of

56

Table of Contents

September 30, 2019. As more fully described in Note 22, “Subsequent Events,” in connection with the Company’s sale of the Golf Club in October 2019, the Company paid the remaining $560,000 to the City leaving no remaining commitment as of October 18, 2019.

As of September 30, 2019, we have no other contractual requirements to make capital expenditures.

In connection with a certain land sale contract to which the Company is a party, the purchaser’s pursuit of customary development entitlements gave rise to an inquiry by federal regulatory agencies regarding prior agricultural activities by the Company on such land. During the second quarter of 2015, we received a written information request regarding such activities. We submitted a written response to the information request along with supporting documentation. During the fourth quarter of 2015, based on discussions with the agency, a penalty related to this matter was deemed probable, and accordingly the estimated penalty of $187,500 was accrued as of December 31, 2015, for which payment was made during the quarter ended September 30, 2016. Also, during the fourth quarter of 2015, the agency advised the Company that the resolution to the inquiry would likely require the Company to incur costs associated with wetlands restoration relating to approximately 148.4 acres of the Company’s land. At December 31, 2015, the Company’s third-party environmental engineers estimated the cost for such restoration activities to range from approximately $1.7 million to approximately $1.9 million. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2015, the Company accrued an obligation of approximately $1.7 million, representing the low end of the estimated range of possible restoration costs, and included such estimated costs on the consolidated balance sheets as an increase in the basis of our land and development costs associated with those and benefitting surrounding acres. As of September 30, 2016, the final proposal from the Company’s third-party environmental engineer was received reflecting a total cost of approximately $2.0 million. Accordingly, an increase in the accrual of approximately $300,000 was made during the second quarter of 2016. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company received a revised estimate for completion of the restoration work for which the adjusted final total cost was approximately $2.4 million. Accordingly, an increase in the accrual of approximately $361,000 was recorded during the first quarter of 2019. The Company has funded approximately $2.2 million of the total $2.4 million of estimated costs through September 30, 2019, leaving a remaining accrual of approximately $166,000. The Company believes there is at least a reasonable possibility that the estimated remaining liability of approximately $166,000 could change within one year of the date of the consolidated financial statements, which in turn could have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and future cash flows. The Company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis; however, actual results may differ from those estimates.

During the first quarter of 2017, the Company completed the sale of approximately 1,581 acres of land to Minto Communities LLC which acreage represents a portion of the Company’s remaining $713,000 obligation. Accordingly, the Company deposited $423,000 of cash in escrow to secure performance on the obligation. The funds in escrow can be drawn upon completion of certain milestones including completion of restoration and annual required monitoring. The first such milestone was achieved during the fourth quarter of 2017 and $189,500 of the escrow was refunded. The second milestone related to the completion of the first-year maintenance and monitoring was achieved during the first quarter of 2019 and $77,833 of the escrow was refunded leaving an escrow balance of approximately $156,000 as of September 30, 2019. Additionally, resolution of the regulatory matter required the Company to apply for an additional permit pertaining to an additional approximately 54.66 acres, which permit may require mitigation activities which the Company anticipates could be satisfied through the utilization of existing mitigation credits owned by the Company or the acquisition of mitigation credits. Resolution of this matter allowed the Company to obtain certain permits from the applicable federal or state regulatory agencies needed in connection with the closing of the land sale contract that gave rise to this matter. As of September 30, 2017, the Company determined that approximately 36 mitigation credits were required to be utilized, which represents approximately $298,000 in cost basis of the Company’s mitigation credits. Accordingly, the Company transferred the mitigation credits through a charge to direct cost of revenues of real estate operations during the three months ended September 30, 2017, thereby resolving the required mitigation activities related to the approximately 54.66 acres. In addition, in connection with other land sale contracts to which the Company is or may become a party, the pursuit of customary development entitlements by the potential purchasers may require the Company to utilize or acquire mitigation credits for the purpose of obtaining certain permits from the applicable federal or state regulatory agencies. Any costs incurred in connection with utilizing or acquiring such credits would be incorporated into the basis of the land under contract. No amounts related to such potential future costs have been accrued as of September 30, 2019. 

We believe we will have sufficient liquidity to fund our operations, capital requirements, and debt service requirements over the next twelve months and into the foreseeable future, with our cash on hand, cash flow from our operations, and cash from the completion of 1031 like-kind exchanges, which as of September 30, 2019 totaled approximately $2.7

million, and the available borrowing capacity of approximately $36.9 million under the Credit Facility, based on the level of borrowing base assets, as of September 30, 2019.

Our Board of Directors and management consistently review the allocation of capital with the goal of providing the best long-term return for our shareholders. These reviews consider various alternatives, including increasing or decreasing regular dividends, repurchasing the Company’s securities, and retaining funds for reinvestment. Annually, the Board reviews our business plan and corporate strategies, and makes adjustments as circumstances warrant. Management’s focus is to continue our strategy to diversify our portfolio by redeploying proceeds from like-kind exchange transactions and utilizing our Credit Facility to increase our portfolio of income-producing properties, providing stabilized cash flows with strong risk-adjusted returns primarily in larger metropolitan areas and growth markets.

We believe that we currently have a reasonable level of leverage. Proceeds from closed land transactions provide us with investible capital. Our strategy is to utilize leverage, when appropriate and necessary, and proceeds from land transactions, sales of income properties, the disposition or payoffs on our commercial loan investments, and certain transactions in our subsurface interests, to acquire income properties. We may also acquire or originate commercial loan investments, invest in securities of real estate companies, or make other shorter-term investments. Our targeted investment classes may include the following:

·

Single-tenant retail and office, double or triple net leased, properties in major metropolitan areas and growth markets;

·

Multi-tenant office and retail properties in major metropolitan areas and growth markets, typically stabilized;

·

Purchase or origination of ground leases;

·

Self-developed properties on Company-owned land including select office, flex, industrial, and retail;

·

Joint venture development using Company-owned land;

·

Origination or purchase of commercial loan investments of loans with terms of 1-10 years with strong risk-adjusted yields with property types to include hotel, office, retail, land and industrial;

·

Select regional area investments using Company market knowledge and expertise to earn strong risk-adjusted yields; and

·

Real estate related investment securities, including commercial mortgage backed securities, preferred or common stock, and corporate bonds.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2018. Judgments and estimates of uncertainties are required in applying our accounting policies in many areas. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, there have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies affecting the application of those accounting policies as noted in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS

The principal market risk (i.e. the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices), to which we are exposed is interest rate risk, relating to our debt. We may utilize overnight sweep accounts and short-term investments as a means to minimize the interest rate risk. We do not believe that interest rate risk related to cash equivalents and short-term investments, if any, is material due to the nature of the investments.

We are primarily exposed to interest rate risk relating to our own debt in connection with our credit facility, as this facility carries a variable rate of interest. Our borrowings on our $200.0 million revolving credit facility bear a variable rate of interest based on the 30-day LIBOR plus a rate of between 135 basis points and 195 basis points based on our

58

Table of Contents

level of borrowing as a percentage of our total asset value. As of September 30, 2019, the outstanding balance on our credit facility was approximately $154.8 million. A hypothetical change in the interest rate of 100 basis points (i.e., 1%) would affect our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows by approximately $1.5 million. The $24.1 million mortgage loan which closed on April 15, 2016, bears a variable rate of interest based on the 30-day LIBOR plus a rate of 190 basis points. The interest rate for this mortgage loan has been fixed through the use of an interest rate swap that fixed the rate at 3.17%. By virtue of fixing the variable rate, our exposure to changes in interest rates is minimal but for the impact on Other Comprehensive Income. Management’s objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to manage our overall borrowing costs.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation, as required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2019, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in such reports is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended September 30, 2019, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, the Company may be a party to certain legal proceedings, incidental to the normal course of its business. While the outcome of the legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.

On November 21, 2011, the Company, Indigo Mallard Creek LLC and Indigo Development LLC, as owners of the property leased to Harris Teeter, Inc. (“Harris Teeter”) in Charlotte, North Carolina, were served with pleadings filed in the General Court of Justice, Superior Court Division for Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, for a highway condemnation action involving this property. The proposed road modifications would impact access to the property. The Company does not believe the road modifications provided a basis for Harris Teeter to terminate the lease. Regardless, in January 2013, the North Carolina Department of Transportation (“NCDOT”) proposed to redesign the road modifications to keep the all access intersection open for ingress with no change to the planned limitation on egress to the right-in/right-out only. Additionally, NCDOT and the City of Charlotte proposed to build and maintain a new access road/point into the property. Construction has begun and is not expected to be completed until 2019. Harris Teeter has expressed satisfaction with the redesigned project and indicated that it will not attempt to terminate its lease if this project is built as currently redesigned. Because the redesigned project will not be completed until 2019, the condemnation case has been placed in administrative closure. As a result, the trial and mediation will not likely be scheduled until requested by the parties, most likely in 2020.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Certain statements contained in this report (other than statements of historical fact) are forward-looking statements. The words “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “will,” “could,” “may,” “should,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “forecast,” “project,” and similar expressions and variations thereof identify certain of such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the dates on which they were made. Forward-looking statements are made based upon management’s expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect upon the Company.

There can be no assurance that future developments will be in accordance with management’s expectations or that the effect of future developments on the Company will be those anticipated by management.

59

Table of Contents

We wish to caution readers that the assumptions, which form the basis for forward-looking statements with respect to or that may impact earnings for the year-ended December 31, 2019, and thereafter, include many factors that are beyond the Company’s ability to control or estimate precisely. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the strength of the real estate market in Daytona Beach and Volusia County, Florida; the impact of a prolonged recession or downturn in economic conditions; our ability to successfully execute acquisition or development strategies; any loss of key management personnel; changes in local, regional, and national economic conditions affecting the real estate development business and income properties; the impact of environmental and land use regulations generally and on certain land sale transactions specifically; extreme or severe weather conditions; the impact of competitive real estate activity; variability in quarterly results due to the unpredictable timing of land transactions; the loss of any major income property tenants; the timing of land sale transactions; and the availability of capital. These risks and uncertainties may cause our actual future results to be materially different than those expressed in our forward-looking statements.

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. There have been no material changes to those risk factors. The risks described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company or that the Company currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect the Company.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

On October 16, 2019, the Company closed on the sale of a controlling interest in a wholly-owned entity that holds the Company’s remaining land portfolio of approximately 5,300 acres (the “Land Venture”), including the land parcels the Company currently has under contract, to certain funds managed by Magnetar Capital (“Magnetar”) for total proceeds to the Company of approximately $97.0 million (the “Land Venture Transaction”). The Land Venture is governed by the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement (the “LLC Agreement”), among the Company and the Magnetar Investors.  As a result of the closing of the Purchase Agreement, the Magnetar Investors collectively own a notional 66.50% interest in the Land Venture, and the Company owns a notional 33.50% interest in the Land

Table of Contents

Venture. The Company may, in the future, receive additional proceeds from the Land Venture in the form of distributions under certain circumstances, based upon the timing and amount realized when the land is ultimately sold by the Land Venture. There can be no assurance as to the likelihood or receiving such distributions, or the amount or timing thereof. The Company filed a current report on Form 8-K on October 22, 2019, as amended, which provides a description of the Land Venture Transaction and related transactional documents in greater detail and includes as exhibits the Purchase Agreement and the LLC Agreement.

On October 23, 2019, the Company announced its intention to sell or contribute 20 of its single-tenant net least income properties to a newly formed independent single-tenant net lease real estate investment trust (“REIT”), Alpine Income Property Trust, Inc. (“Alpine” or “PINE”). The Company has sponsored Alpine prior to its planned initial public offering (the “PINE IPO”). Alpine was formed by CTO as a single-tenant net lease REIT and its IPO is intended to raise the necessary capital to acquire 15 of the 20 assets for approximately $125.9 million in cash and as part of Alpine’s formation the Company will contribute 5 of the income properties in exchange for approximately 1.2 million units in Alpine’s operating partnership (“OP Units”), with an estimated value of approximately $24.5 million based on the current expected mid-point of the price range of the PINE IPO. CTO intends to invest $7.5 million in the common stock in PINE through a private placement concurrent with the PINE IPO. Following completion of the PINE IPO and related formation transactions, CTO expects to own approximately 17.5% of PINE based on the Company’s aggregate ownership of OP Units, approximately 13.4%, and the PINE shares, approximately 4.1%, purchased in the private placement. A wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company will serve as external manager of PINE subject to a management agreement that provides for an annual base management fee equal to 1.5% of the total equity of PINE and with the opportunity to earn an incentive fee that is based on exceeding a set total return for PINE’s shareholders.
