Financial Results
Revenue
Total revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 increased 9.2% totaling approximately $5.1 million, compared to approximately $4.6 million in the same period of 2012. This increase from the same period in 2012 included $964,157 in additional revenue generated by our income properties, an increase of 44.0%, and a $135,106 increase in revenue from our golf operations, an increase of 10.2%, offset by a $727,319 decrease in revenue from our real estate operations.
Net Income (Loss)
Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 was approximately $337,000, compared to net income of approximately $494,000 in the same period of 2012. Our results in 2013 benefited from approximately $427,000, or 9.2%, in increased revenues offset by an increase in operating expenses of approximately $598,000, or 16.1%, primarily related to general and administrative expenses and depreciation. Our general and administrative costs increased 23.2%, or $329,916, in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012, due primarily to increased personnel costs and increased stock compensation costs, which totaled $444,416, an increase of $194,593, compared to the first quarter of 2012. Excluding the increase in non-cash stock compensation costs, and separation costs associated with the departure of an employee, our general and administrative costs totaled approximately $1.2 million, a 2.8% increase over the same period in 2012. Net income for the quarter-ended March 31, 2013, was $0.06 per share, compared to $0.09 per share during the same period in 2012.
