NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Description of Business

We are a publicly traded diversified real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that was founded in 1910. We own and manage, sometimes utilizing third-party property management companies, 20 commercial real estate properties in 10 states in the United States. As of June 30, 2021, we owned 12 single-tenant and 8 multi-tenant income-producing properties comprising 2.7 million square feet of gross leasable space.

In addition to our income property portfolio, as of June 30, 2021, our business included the following:

Management Services:

● A fee-based management business that is engaged in managing Alpine Income Property Trust, Inc. (“PINE”) and the entity that currently holds 1,600 acres of undeveloped land in Daytona Beach, Florida (the “Land JV”), see Note 6, “Related Party Management Services Business”.

Commercial Loan and Master Lease Investments:

● A portfolio of 2 commercial loan investments and 2 commercial properties, which are included in the 20 commercial real estate properties above, whose leases are classified as commercial loan and master lease investments.

Real Estate Operations:

● A portfolio of subsurface mineral interests associated with approximately 420,000 surface acres in 20 counties in the State of Florida and a portfolio of mitigation credits (“Subsurface Interests”);

● A retained interest in the Land JV, which has entered into an agreement to sell substantially all of its remaining 1,600 acres of undeveloped land in Daytona Beach, Florida; and

● An interest in a joint venture that owns a 2,500 acre parcel of land in the western part of Daytona Beach, Florida and which is engaged in the operation of a mitigation bank (the “Mitigation Bank JV”), which, pursuant to a mitigation plan approved by the applicable state and federal authorities, produces mitigation credits that are marketed and sold to developers of land in the Daytona Beach area for the purpose of enabling the developers to obtain certain regulatory permits.

Our business also includes our investment in PINE. As of June 30, 2021, our investment totaled $38.8 million, or 15.8% of the PINE’s outstanding equity, including the units of limited partnership interest (“OP Units”) we hold in Alpine Income Property OP, LP (the “PINE Operating Partnership”), which are redeemable for cash, based upon the value of an equivalent number of shares of PINE common stock at the time of the redemption, or shares of PINE common stock on a 1-for-one basis, at PINE’s election. Our investment in PINE generates investment income through the dividends distributed by PINE. In addition to the dividends we receive from PINE, our investment in PINE may benefit from any appreciation in PINE’s stock price, although no assurances can be provided that such appreciation will occur, the amount by which our investment will increase in value, or the timing thereof. Any dividends received from PINE are included in investment and other income (loss) on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

REIT Conversion

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had completed certain internal reorganization transactions necessary to begin operating in compliance with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the taxable year ended December 31, 2020.

9

In order to comply with certain REIT requirements set forth in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), we hold certain of our non-REIT assets and operations through taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”) and subsidiaries of TRSs. A TRS is a subsidiary of a REIT that is generally subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on its earnings. Net income from our TRSs either will be retained by our TRSs and used to fund their operations, or will be distributed to us, where it will either be reinvested by us into our business or available for distribution to our stockholders. However, distributions from our TRSs to us will not produce qualifying income for purposes of the 75% gross income test applicable to REITs and thus may be limited.

To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of the Company’s annual REIT taxable income, without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gain, to its stockholders (which is computed and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles). As a REIT, the Company is generally not subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax to the extent of its distributions to stockholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate rates and generally will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification is lost unless the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) grants the Company relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially adversely affect the Company’s net income and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to state and local taxes on its income and property and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.

Merger

On January 29, 2021, in connection with the REIT conversion, the Company completed the merger of CTO Realty Growth, Inc., a Florida corporation (“CTO FL”), with and into CTO NEWCO REIT, Inc. (“CTO MD ”), a wholly owned subsidiary of CTO FL (the “Merger”) in order to reincorporate in Maryland and facilitate its ongoing compliance with the REIT requirements by ensuring that certain standard REIT ownership limitations and transfer restrictions apply to CTO MD’s capital stock.

As a result of the Merger, existing shares of CTO FL common stock were automatically converted, on a one-for-one basis, into shares of common stock of CTO MD. CTO MD is a corporation organized in the state of Maryland and has been renamed “CTO Realty Growth, Inc.”  CTO MD’s charter includes certain standard REIT provisions, including ownership limitations and transfer restrictions applicable to the Company’s capital stock. See Note 14, “Equity” for the Company’s disclosure related to the equity adjustments recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2021 in connection with the Merger.

In connection with the REIT conversion and the Merger, CTO FL applied to list CTO MD’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under CTO FL’s ticker symbol, “CTO.”  This application was approved, and CTO MD’s common stock began trading on the NYSE on February 1, 2021 under the ticker symbol “CTO.”

COVID-19 Pandemic

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the novel coronavirus as a pandemic (the “COVID-19 Pandemic”), which has spread throughout the United States. The impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic has evolved rapidly, with many jurisdictions taking drastic measures to limit the spread of the virus by instituting quarantines or lockdowns and imposing travel restrictions. Such actions have created significant disruptions to global supply chains, and adversely impacted several industries, including airlines, hospitality, retail and the broader real estate industry.

As a result of the approval of multiple COVID-19 vaccines for use and the distribution of such vaccines among the general population, a number of jurisdictions have reopened and loosened restrictions. However, wide disparities in vaccination rates and continued vaccine hesitancy, combined with the emergence of COVID-19 variants and surges in COVID-19 cases, could trigger the reinstatement of further restrictions. Such restrictions could include mandatory business shut-downs, travel restrictions, reduced business operations and social distancing requirements.

The future impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the real estate industry and the Company’s financial condition and results of operations is uncertain and cannot be predicted currently since it depends on several factors beyond the control of the Company, including, but not limited to: (i) the uncertainty surrounding the severity and duration of the

10

COVID-19 Pandemic, including possible recurrences and differing economic and social impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic in various regions of the United States; (ii) the effectiveness of the United States public health response; (iii) the COVID-19 Pandemic’s impact on the United States and global economies; (iv) the timing, scope and effectiveness of additional governmental responses to the COVID-19 Pandemic; (v) the availability of a treatment and effectiveness of vaccines approved for COVID-19 and the willingness of individuals to get vaccinated; (vi) changes in how certain types of commercial property are used while maintaining social distancing and other techniques intended to control the impact of COVID-19; (vii) the impact of phase out of economic stimulus measures, the inflationary pressure of economic stimulus, and the eventual halt and reversal by the U.S. Treasury of asset purchases; and (viii) the uneven impact on the Company’s tenants, real estate values and cost of capital.

Contractual Base Rent (“CBR”) represents the amount owed to the Company under the current terms of its lease agreements. As a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic, during the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company agreed to defer or abate certain CBR in exchange for additional lease term or other lease enhancing additions. Repayments of the remaining balance of deferred CBR began in the third quarter of 2020, with payments continuing, in some cases, into 2023.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. 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 (“U.S. 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, 2020, 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 three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.

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. The Company has retained interests in the Land JV and the Mitigation Bank JV, as well as an equity investment in PINE. The Company has concluded that these entities are variable interest entities of which the Company is not the primary beneficiary and as a result, these entities are not consolidated.

Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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.

Among other factors, fluctuating market conditions that can exist in the national real estate markets and the volatility and uncertainty in the financial and credit markets make it possible that the estimates and assumptions, most notably those related to the Company’s investment in income properties, could change materially due to continued volatility in the real estate and financial markets, or as a result of a significant dislocation in those markets.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Debt with Conversion and Other Options. In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06 related to simplifying the accounting for convertible instruments by removing certain separation models for convertible instruments. Among other things, the amendments in the update also provide for improvements in the consistency in EPS calculations by amending the guidance by requiring that an entity use the if-converted method for convertible instruments. The amendments in ASU 2020-06 are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company has not yet finalized the analysis related to the potential impact of ASU 2020-06.

ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, which amends its guidance on the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments. The amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2019. ASU 2016-13 affects entities holding financial assets that are not accounted for at fair value through net income, including but not limited to, loans, trade receivables, and net investments in leases. The Company adopted the changes to FASB ASC 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses on January 1, 2020. The Company’s evaluation of current expected credit losses (“CECL”) resulted in a reserve of $0.3 million on the Company’s commercial loan and master lease investments portfolio during the three months ended March 31, 2020. See Note 5 “Commercial Loan and Master Lease Investments” for further information.

Reclassifications

Certain items in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation as of March 31, 2021. Specifically, in the first quarter of 2021, the Company reclassified deferred financing costs incurred in connection with its Credit Facility (as further described in Note 17, Long-Term Debt), net of accumulated amortization, as a component of other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Accordingly, deferred financing costs of $1.2 million, net of accumulated amortization of $0.5 million, were reclassified from long-term debt to other assets as of December 31, 2020.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes 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 June 30, 2021 include certain amounts over the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash totaled $13.9 million at June 30, 2021, of which $13.8 million is being held in an escrow account to be reinvested through the like-kind exchange structure into other income properties and $0.1 million is being held in a separate escrow account in connection with the sale of a ground lease located in Daytona Beach, Florida.

Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activity

Interest Rate Swaps. The Company accounts for its cash flow hedging derivatives in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815-20, Derivatives and Hedging. Depending upon the hedge’s value at each balance sheet date, the derivatives are included in either other assets or accrued and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet at its fair value. On the date each interest rate swap was entered into, the Company designated the derivatives as a hedge of the variability of cash flows to be paid related to the recognized long-term debt liabilities.

The Company documented the relationship between the hedging instruments and the hedged item, as well as its risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge transactions. At the hedges’ inception, the Company formally assessed whether the derivatives that are used in hedging the transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged items, and we will continue to do so on an ongoing basis. As the terms of each interest rate swap and the associated debts are identical, both hedging instruments qualify for the shortcut method; therefore, it is assumed that there is no hedge ineffectiveness throughout the entire term of the hedging instruments.

12

Changes in fair value of the hedging instruments that are highly effective and designated and qualified as cash-flow hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income and loss, until earnings are affected by the variability in cash flows of the designated hedged items.

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 June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s Credit Facility (hereinafter defined) as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, approximates current market rates for revolving credit arrangements with similar risks and maturities. The face value of the Company’s fixed rate commercial loan and master lease investments, the 2026 Term Loan (hereinafter defined), and convertible debt held as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are measured at fair value based on current market rates for financial instruments with similar risks and maturities (see Note 10, “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 U.S. 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. U.S. 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.

Recognition of Interest Income from Commercial Loan and Master Lease Investments

Interest income on commercial loan and master lease investments includes interest payments made by the borrower and the accretion of purchase discounts and loan origination fees, offset by the amortization of loan costs. Interest payments are accrued based on the actual coupon rate and the outstanding principal balance and purchase discounts and loan origination fees are accreted into income using the effective yield method, adjusted for prepayments.

Mitigation Credits

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 accrued tenant reimbursable expenses and other tenant receivables. Receivables related to income property tenants totaled $1.1 million and $2.3 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The $1.2 million decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in estimated accrued receivables for variable lease payments including common area maintenance, insurance, real estate taxes and other operating expenses.

13

Accounts receivable related to real estate operations, which are classified in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets, totaled $1.4 million and $1.3 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The accounts receivable as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are primarily related to the reimbursement of certain infrastructure costs completed by the Company in conjunction with 2 land sale transactions that closed during the fourth quarter of 2015 as more fully described in Note 13, “Other Assets.”

The collectability of the aforementioned receivables shall be considered and adjusted through an allowance for credit losses pursuant to ASC 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

Purchase Accounting for Acquisitions of Real Estate Subject to a Lease

Investments in real estate are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, if any. The cost of investments in real estate reflects their purchase price or development cost. We evaluate each acquisition transaction to determine whether the acquired asset meets the definition of a business. Under ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, an acquisition does not qualify as a business when there is no substantive process acquired or substantially all of the fair value is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets or the acquisition does not include a substantive process in the form of an acquired workforce or an acquired contract that cannot be replaced without significant cost, effort or delay. Transaction costs related to acquisitions that are asset acquisitions are capitalized as part of the cost basis of the acquired assets, while transaction costs for acquisitions that are deemed to be acquisitions of a business are expensed as incurred. Improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the useful life or improve the productive capacity of the asset. Costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

In accordance with FASB guidance, 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. 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. 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 management believes that it is likely that the tenant will renew the lease upon expiration, in which case the Company amortizes the value attributable to the renewal over the renewal period. The value of in-place leases and leasing costs are 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.

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 intends to elect to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the Code commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2020, upon filing of its tax return for such taxable year. The Company believes that, commencing with such taxable year, it has been organized and has operated in such a manner as to qualify for taxation as a REIT under the U.S. federal income tax laws. The Company intends to continue to operate in such a manner. As a REIT, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxation at corporate rates on its net taxable income; the Company, however, may claim a deduction for the amount of dividends paid to its stockholders. Amounts distributed as dividends by the Company will be subject to taxation at the stockholder level only. While the Company must distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding any net capital gain, to qualify as a REIT, the Company intends to distribute all of its net taxable income. The Company is allowed certain other non-cash deductions or adjustments, such as depreciation expense, when

14

computing its REIT taxable income and distribution requirement. These deductions permit the Company to reduce its dividend payout requirement under U.S. federal income tax laws. Certain states may impose minimum franchise taxes. To comply with certain REIT requirements, we hold certain of our non-REIT assets and operations through TRSs and subsidiaries of TRSs, which will be subject to applicable U.S. federal, state and local corporate income tax on their taxable income. For the periods presented, the Company held a total of 5 TRSs subject to taxation. The Company’s TRSs will file separately as C-Corporations.

For the Company’s TRSs, and prior to the three months ended December 31, 2020 preceding the Company’s REIT election, 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 22, “Income Taxes”). In June 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, and 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, 0 reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to the FASB guidance.

NOTE 5. COMMERCIAL LOAN AND MASTER LEASE 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 real estate or the borrower’s pledge of its ownership interest in the entity that owns the real estate. The 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.

2021 Activity. On June 30, 2021, the Company originated a loan in connection with the sale of a land parcel with an existing structure located in Daytona Beach, Florida. The principal loan amount of $0.4 million bears interest at a fixed rate of 10.00% and has an initial term of 1.5 years.

NOTE 6. RELATED PARTY MANAGEMENT SERVICES BUSINESS

Alpine Income Property Trust. Pursuant to the Company’s management agreement with PINE, we will generate a base management fee equal to 0.375% per quarter of PINE’s total equity (as defined in the management agreement and based on a 1.5% annual rate), calculated and payable in cash, quarterly in arrears. The structure of the base fee provides us with an opportunity for our base fee to grow should PINE’s independent board members determine to raise additional equity capital in the future. We also have an opportunity to achieve additional cash flows as manager of PINE pursuant an annual incentive fee based on PINE’s total stockholder return exceeding an 8% cumulative annual hurdle rate (the “Outperformance Amount”) subject to a high-water mark price. PINE would pay the Company an incentive fee with respect to each annual measurement period in the amount of the greater of (i) $0.00 and (ii) the product of (a) 15% multiplied by (b) the Outperformance Amount multiplied by (c) the weighted average shares. NaN incentive fee was earned for the year ended December 31, 2020.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company earned management fee revenue from PINE totaling $0.72 million and $1.36 million, respectively. Dividend income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 totaled $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company earned management fee revenue from PINE totaling $0.64 million and $1.29 million, respectively. Dividend income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

During the three months ended June 30, 2021, PINE exercised its right to purchase the following properties from the Company pursuant to the exclusivity and right of first offer agreement (i) the CMBS Portfolio for a purchase price of $44.5 million, and (ii) one single-tenant income property for a purchase price of $11.5 million.  In connection with the sale of the CMBS Portfolio, PINE assumed the related $30.0 million mortgage note payable which resulted in a loss on the extinguishment of debt of $0.5 million due to the write off of unamortized debt issuance costs. These sales were completed during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Land JV. Pursuant to the terms of the operating agreement for the Land JV, the initial amount of the management fee was $20,000 per month. The management fee is evaluated quarterly and as land sales occur in the Land JV, the basis for our management fee is reduced as the management fee is based on the value of real property that remains in the Land JV. The monthly management fee as of June 30, 2021 was $10,000 per month.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 the Company earned management fee revenue from the Land JV totaling $0.03 million and $0.06 million, respectively, and was collected in full during the periods earned.

The cost basis was reduced by the impact of 16 mitigation credits with a cost basis of $1.2 million that were provided at no cost to buyers. Additionally, the Company purchased 2 mitigation credits from the Mitigation Bank JV, for $0.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Mitigation credit sales totaled less than $0.01 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020, with 0 such sales occurring during the six months ended June 30, 2021.  

Subsurface Interests. As of June 30, 2021, the Company owns full or fractional subsurface oil, gas, and mineral interests underlying approximately 420,000 “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. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company sold approximately 34,500 acres of subsurface oil, gas, and mineral rights for a sales price of $2.6 million, which revenues are included within real estate operations in the consolidated statements of operations. There were 0 subsurface sales during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Revenues received from oil royalties totaled $0.03 million and $0.01 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The Company is not prohibited from selling any or all of its Subsurface Interests. 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. Should the Company complete a transaction to sell all or a portion of its Subsurface Interests or complete a release transaction, the Company may utilize the like-kind exchange structure in acquiring one or more replacement investments including income-producing properties. Cash payments for the release of surface entry rights totaled $0.07 million during each of the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Land Impairments. There were 0 impairment charges on the Company’s undeveloped land holdings, or its income property portfolio during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The $16.5 million impairment charge recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2021 is related to the Company’s retained interest in the Land JV as a result of the estimated proceeds to be received in connection with the contract entered into with Timberline Acquisition Partners, an affiliate of Timberline Real Estate Partners (“Timberline”), for the sale of substantially all of its remaining land, including any land that was previously under contract, for $67.0 million.

NOTE 8. INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES

The Company’s Investment in Joint Ventures was as follows as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (in thousands):

	As of
	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Land JV	$	25,576	$	41,765
Mitigation Bank JV		6,921		6,912
Total Investment in Joint Ventures	$	32,497	$	48,677

Land JV. The Company’s retained interest in the Land JV represents a notional 33.5% stake in the venture, the value of which may be realized in the form of distributions based on the timing and the amount of proceeds achieved when the land is ultimately sold by the Land JV. As of June 30, 2021, the Land JV had completed $79.7 million in land sales since its inception in mid-October 2019. During the second quarter of 2021, the Land JV entered into a binding contract with Timberline, for the sale of substantially all of its remaining 1,600 acres of land, including any parcels that were previously under contract, for $67.0 million. Completion of the sale to Timberline under the above-referenced contract would result in estimated proceeds to the Company, after distributions to the other member of the Land JV, and before taxes, of $25.6 million. Accordingly, during the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $16.5 million to reduce the balance of the investment in the Land JV to the amount of the estimated proceeds from the potential sale to Timberline. The closing of the sale to Timberline is anticipated to occur prior to year-end and is subject to completion of customary due diligence and closing conditions. As of June 30, 2021, the Company, as manager of the Land

22

JV, continues to pursue the sale of individual parcels within the remaining 1,600 acres, which sales would be subject to approval by Timberline.

The Company currently serves as the manager of the Land JV and is responsible for day-to-day operations at the direction of the JV Partners. All major decisions and certain other actions that can be taken by the manager must be approved by the unanimous consent of the JV Partners (the “Unanimous Actions”). Unanimous Actions include such matters as the approval of pricing for all land parcels in the Land JV; approval of contracts for the sale of land that contain material revisions to the standard purchase contract of the Land JV; entry into any lease agreement affiliated with the Land JV;  entering into listing or brokerage agreements; approval and amendment of the Land JV’s operating budget; obtaining financing for the Land JV; admission of additional members; and dispositions of the Land JV’s real property for amounts less than market value. Pursuant to the Land JV’s operating agreement, the Land JV paid the manager a management fee in the initial amount of $20,000 per month. The management fee is evaluated quarterly and as land sales occur in the Land JV, the basis for our management fee is reduced as the management fee is based on the value of real property that remains in the Land JV. The monthly management fee as of June 30, 2021 was $10,000 per month.

The investment in joint ventures on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets includes the Company’s ownership interest in the Land JV. We have concluded the Land JV 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 Land JV being jointly controlled by the members through the use of unanimous approval for all material actions. Under the guidance of FASB ASC 323, Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures, the Company uses the equity method to account for the Land JV investment.

The following table provides summarized financial information of the Land JV as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (in thousands):

	As of
	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2021		June 30, 2020		June 30, 2021		June 30, 2020

Other Operating Expenses		(77)		(137)		(148)		(274)
Net Income (Loss)	$	(121)	$	274	$	(252)	$	4,177

The Company’s share of the Land JV’s net income (loss) was 0 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Pursuant to ASC 323, certain adjustments are made when calculating the Company’s share of net income, including adjustments required to reflect the investor’s share of changes in investee’s capital to reflect distributions from the venture. Additionally, basis differences are also considered. The Company recorded the retained interest in the Land JV of $48.9 million at the estimated fair market value based on the relationship of the $97.0 million sales price of the 66.5% equity interest to the 33.5% retained interest. The Land JV recorded the assets contributed by the Company at carry-over basis pursuant to ASC 845 which states that transfers of nonmonetary assets should typically be recorded at the transferor’s historical cost basis. Accordingly, the Company’s basis difference in the 33.5% retained equity interest will

23

be evaluated each quarter upon determining the Company’s share of the Land JV’s net income. Although no adjustment was required related to the Company’s share of the Land JV’s net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 or 2020, the Company did record an impairment of $16.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021 on the retained equity interest as a result of the estimated proceeds to be received from the potential sale to Timberline.

Mitigation Bank. The mitigation bank transaction completed in June 2018 consists of the sale of a 70% interest in the Mitigation Bank JV. The purchaser of the 70% interest in the Mitigation Bank JV is comprised of certain funds and accounts managed by an investment advisor subsidiary of BlackRock, Inc. (“BlackRock”). The Company retained an 30% non-controlling interest in the Mitigation Bank JV. A third-party was retained by the Mitigation Bank JV as the day-to-day manager of the Mitigation Bank property, responsible for the maintenance, generation, tracking, and other aspects of wetland mitigation credits. The $6.9 million investment in joint ventures included on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets is comprised of the fair market value of the 30% retained interest in the Mitigation Bank JV.

The Mitigation Bank JV 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 Mitigation Bank JV 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 ultimate issuance, marketability or value of the credits. The Mitigation Bank JV 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 2021.

The operating agreement of the Mitigation Bank JV (the “Operating Agreement”) executed in conjunction with the mitigation bank transaction stipulates that the Company shall arrange for sales of the Mitigation Bank JV’s mitigation credits to unrelated third parties totaling no less than $6.0 million of revenue to the Mitigation Bank JV, 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 cause the Company to purchase the number of mitigation credits necessary to reach the Minimum Sales Requirement (the “Minimum Sales Guarantee”). As a result of not having achieved the Minimum Sales Requirement prior to December 31, 2020, during the first and second quarters of 2021, the Company has had active discussions with BlackRock regarding the Minimum Sales Guarantee. Based on those discussions, the Company currently anticipates that the Minimum Sales Guarantee payment would be paid to BlackRock in the latter half of 2021. The Company is also in discussion with BlackRock regarding the Company’s potential buyout of BlackRock’s position in the Mitigation Bank JV, the timing of which could occur in the latter half of 2021. There can be no assurances regarding the likelihood, timing, or final terms of such potential buyout.

During June 2018, upon closing the Mitigation Bank JV, the Company estimated the fair value of the Minimum Sales Guarantee at $0.1 million 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 June 30, 2021, the Company considers the $0.1 million reasonable as upon payment of the Minimum Sales Guarantee, the Company will obtain mitigation credits, or the right to such credits, which would be recorded as an asset at the time of payment.

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 JV 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 JV 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 1-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 initial maximum potential of future payments for the Company pursuant to the Put Right was $27.0 million. The Company estimated the fair value of the Put Right to be $0.2 million, 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.

24

During the year ended December 31, 2020, BlackRock exercised its Put Right and put 48 mitigation credits to the Company inclusive of (i) 20 mitigation credits acquired during the three months ended March 31, 2020 totaling $1.5 million, or $75,000 per credit, (ii) 20 mitigation credits acquired during the three months ended September 30, 2020 totaling $1.5 million, or $75,000 per credit, and (iii) 8 mitigation credits acquired during the three months ended December 31, 2020 totaling $0.6 million, or $75,000 per credit. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, BlackRock did not exercise its Put Right. The Company evaluated the impact of the exercised Put Right on the fair value of the Company’s investment in the Mitigation Bank JV of $6.9 million, and on the fair value of the mitigation credits purchased as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, noting no impairment issues. The Company evaluates its estimates of fair value on an ongoing basis; however, actual results may differ from those estimates.

The Company’s share of the Mitigation Bank JV’s net income (loss) was 0 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. Pursuant to ASC 323, certain adjustments are made when calculating the Company’s share of net income, including adjustments required to reflect the investor’s share of changes in investee’s capital to reflect distributions from the venture. Additionally, basis differences are also considered. The Company recorded the initial retained interest in the Mitigation Bank JV of $6.8 million in June 2018 at the estimated fair market value based on the relationship of the $15.3 million sales price of the 70% equity interest to the 30% retained interest. The Mitigation Bank JV recorded the assets contributed by the Company at carry-over basis pursuant to ASC 845 which states that transfers of nonmonetary assets  should typically be recorded at the transferor’s historical cost basis. Accordingly, the Company’s basis difference in the 30% retained equity interest will be evaluated each quarter upon determining the Company’s share of the Mitigation Bank JV’s net income.

NOTE 14. EQUITY

MERGER

As a result of the Merger, as described in Note 1, “Description of Business”, the Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share. Prior to the Merger, the Company’s common stock had a par value of $1.00 per share. Accordingly, a $7.2 million adjustment to reduce common stock with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital was made during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and is reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity.

Additionally, as a result of the Merger and pursuant to Maryland state law, the Company’s treasury stock ceased to be outstanding and was returned to unissued status. Accordingly, a $77.5 million adjustment to eliminate treasury stock with a corresponding decrease to additional paid-in capital was made during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and is reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity.

SHELF REGISTRATION

On April 1, 2021, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3, relating to the registration and potential issuance of its common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, rights, and units with a maximum aggregate offering price of up to $350.0 million. The Securities and Exchange Commission declared the Form S-3 effective on April 19, 2021.

29

ATM PROGRAM

On April 30, 2021, the Company implemented a $150.0 million “at-the-market” equity offering program (the “ATM Program”) pursuant to which the Company may sell, from time to time, shares of the Company’s common stock.  The Company was not active under the ATM Program during the six months ended June 30, 2021.  

PERPETUAL PREFERRED PUBLIC OFFERING

On June 28, 2021, the Company priced a public offering of 3,000,000 shares of its 6.375% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock at a public offering price of $25.00 per share. The offering closed on July 6, 2021 and generated total net proceeds to the Company of $72.4 million, after deducting the underwriting discount and expenses (see Note 26, “Subsequent Events”).

DIVIDENDS

The Company intends to elect to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the Code commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2020, upon filing of its tax return for such taxable year. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must annually distribute, at a minimum, an amount equal to 90% of its taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains, and must distribute 100% of its taxable income (including net capital gains) to eliminate corporate federal income taxes payable by the Company. Because taxable income differs from cash flow from operations due to non-cash revenues and expenses (such as depreciation and other items), in certain circumstances, the Company may generate operating cash flow in excess of its dividends, or alternatively, may need to make dividend payments in excess of operating cash flows. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company declared and paid cash dividends on its common stock of $1.00 per share and $2.00 per share, respectively.

NOTE 15. COMMON STOCK AND EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) during the period 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.

The following is a reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings per common share for each of the periods presented (in thousands, except share and per share data):

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2021		June 30, 2020		June 30, 2021		June 30, 2020
Income Available to Common Stockholders:
Net Income (Loss)	$	(3,724)	$	12,611	$	4,061	$	349

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share	$	(0.63)	$	2.71	$	0.69	$	0.07

There were no potentially dilutive securities for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 or 2020. The effect of 37,552 and 39,402 potentially dilutive securities were not included for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, as the effect would be anti-dilutive.

30

The Company intends to settle its 3.875% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (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 (loss) per share using the treasury stock method. As such, the Convertible Notes have no impact on diluted net income (loss) per share until the price of our common stock exceeds the current conversion price of $53.06. The average price of our common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2021 did not exceed the conversion price which resulted in 0 additional diluted outstanding shares.

NOTE 16. SHARE REPURCHASES

In February 2020, the Company’s Board approved a $10.0 million stock repurchase program (the “$10.0 Million Repurchase Program”). During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company repurchased 88,565 shares of its common stock on the open market for a total cost of $4.1 million, or an average price per share of $46.29. The shares of the Company’s common stock repurchased during the six months ended June 30, 2020 were returned to the Company’s treasury. There were 0 repurchases of the Company’s common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The $10.0 Million Repurchase Program does not have an expiration date.

As a result of the Merger and pursuant to Maryland state law, the Company’s treasury stock ceased to be outstanding and was returned to unissued status. Accordingly, a $77.5 million adjustment to eliminate treasury stock with a corresponding decrease to additional paid-in capital was made during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and is reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity.

NOTE 17. LONG-TERM DEBT

Our consolidated indebtedness as of June 30, 2021 was $311.0 million.

Mortgage Notes Payable. On March 12, 2021, the Company repaid its $23.2 million variable-rate mortgage note payable and terminated the associated rate swap utilized to achieve a fixed interest rate of 3.17%. On June 30, 2021, the Company’s $30.0 million fixed-rate mortgage note payable was assumed by the buyer in connection with the disposition of the CMBS Portfolio during the second quarter of 2021.

Convertible Debt. The Company’s $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50% Convertible Notes (the “2020 Notes”) were scheduled to mature on March 15, 2020; however, the Company completed the Note Exchanges, hereinafter defined, on February 4, 2020. The initial conversion rate was 14.5136 shares of common stock for each $1,000 principal amount of the 2020 Notes, which represented an initial conversion price of $68.90 per share of common stock.

On February 4, 2020, the Company closed privately negotiated exchange agreements with certain holders of its outstanding 2020 Notes pursuant to which the Company issued $57.4 million principal amount of 3.875% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”) in exchange for $57.4 million principal amount of the 2020 Notes (the “Note Exchanges”).  In addition, the Company closed a privately negotiated purchase agreement with an investor, who had not invested in the 2020 Notes, and issued $17.6 million principal amount of the 2025 Notes (the “New Notes Placement,” and together with the Note Exchanges, the “Convert Transactions”). The Company used $5.9 million of the proceeds from the New Notes Placement to repurchase $5.9 million of the 2020 Notes. As a result of the Convert Transactions there was a total of $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2025 Notes outstanding.

In exchange for issuing the 2025 Notes pursuant to the Note Exchanges, the Company received and cancelled the exchanged 2020 Notes. The $11.7 million of net proceeds from the New Notes Placement were used to redeem at maturity on March 15, 2020 $11.7 million of the aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes that remained outstanding.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company repurchased $12.5 million aggregate principal amount of 2025 Notes at a $2.6 million discount, resulting in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $1.1 million. All such repurchases were made during first and second quarter of 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased $0.8 million aggregate principal amount of 2025 Notes at a $0.01 million premium, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.1 million. Following the repurchase of the 2025 Notes, $61.7 million aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes remains outstanding at June 30, 2021.  

The 2025 Notes represent senior unsecured obligations of the Company and pay interest semi-annually in arrears on each April 15th and October 15th, commencing on April 15, 2020, at a rate of 3.875% per annum. The 2025 Notes mature on April 15, 2025 and may not be redeemed by the Company prior to the maturity date. The conversion rate for the 2025 Notes was initially 12.7910 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 of principal of the 2025 Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $78.18 per share of the Company’s common stock). The initial conversion price of the 2025 Notes represented a premium of 20% to the $65.15 closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE American on January 29, 2020. If the Company’s Board increases the quarterly dividend above the $0.13 per share in place at issuance, the conversion rate is adjusted with each such increase in the quarterly dividend amount. After the second quarter 2021 dividend, the conversion rate is equal to 18.8450 shares of common stock for each $1,000 principal amount of 2025 Notes, which represents an adjusted conversion price of $53.06 per share of common stock. At the maturity date, the 2025 Notes are convertible into cash, common stock or a combination thereof, subject to various conditions, at the Company’s option. Should certain corporate transactions or events occur prior to the stated maturity date, the Company will increase the conversion rate for a holder that elects to convert its 2025 Notes in connection with such corporate transaction or event.

The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. Holders may not surrender their 2025 Notes for conversion prior to January 15, 2025 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 2025 Notes, or specified corporate events including a change in control of the Company. The Company may not redeem the 2025 Notes prior to the stated maturity date and 0 sinking fund is provided for the 2025 Notes. The 2025 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 2025 Notes in cash upon conversion, with any excess conversion value to be settled in shares of our common stock. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the 2025 Notes were accounted for as a liability with a separate equity component recorded for the conversion option. A liability was recorded for the 2025 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 2025 Notes and the estimated

33

fair value of the debt instruments resulted in a debt discount, with an offset recorded to additional paid-in capital representing the equity component. As of June 30, 2021, the unamortized debt discount of our 2025 Notes was $5.5 million.

EQUITY-CLASSIFIED STOCK COMPENSATION

Performance Share Awards – Peer Group Market Condition Vesting

Performance shares have been granted to certain employees under the 2010 Plan. The performance share 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 ultimately received by the award recipient is determined based on the Company’s total stockholder return as compared to the total stockholder return of a certain peer group during a three-year performance period. The Company granted a total of 48,134 performance shares during the three months ended March 31, 2021, of which 15,988 were attributable to the Equitable Adjustment.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, pursuant to the calculation of the vesting criteria for the three-year performance period ended December 31, 2020, as performed by an independent third party, the grantees of performance shares received an aggregate of 15,197 shares of Company common stock related to the 17,418 shares outstanding as of January 20, 2021, post Equitable Adjustment, as the actual vesting percentage achieved  during the relevant three-year performance period was 87.2%.

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 stockholder 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.

The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2021 totaled $0.5 million. As of June 30, 2021, there is 0 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 and meeting fees 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 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020 and $35,000 for the year ending December 31, 2021 (the “Annual Award”). The number of shares awarded is 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. Commencing in 2021, non-employee directors will no longer receive meeting fees, but will receive additional retainers for service on Board committees, as set forth in the Company’s Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy available on the Company’s website (www.ctoreit.com).

During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the expense recognized for the value of the Company’s common stock received by non-employee directors totaled $0.4 million or 8,298 shares, and $0.4 million, or 6,283 shares, respectively. The expense recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 includes the Annual Award received during the first quarter of each respective year which totaled $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

NOTE 22. INCOME TAXES

The Company intends to elect to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the Code commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2020, upon filing of its tax return for such taxable year. The Company believes that, commencing with such taxable year, it has been organized and has operated in such a manner as to qualify for taxation as a REIT under the U.S. federal income tax laws. The Company intends to continue to operate in such a manner. As a REIT, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxation at corporate rates on its net taxable income; the Company, however, may claim a deduction for the amount of dividends paid to its stockholders. Amounts distributed as dividends by the Company will be subject to taxation at the stockholder level only. While the Company must distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding any net capital gain, to qualify as a REIT, the Company intends to distribute all of its net taxable income. The Company is allowed certain other non-cash deductions or adjustments, such as depreciation expense, when computing its REIT taxable income and distribution requirement. These deductions permit the Company to reduce its dividend payout requirement under U.S. federal income tax laws. Certain states may impose minimum franchise taxes. To

40

comply with certain REIT requirements, the Company holds certain of its non-REIT assets and operations through TRS and subsidiaries of TRSs, which will be subject to applicable U.S. federal, state and local corporate income tax on their taxable income. For the periods presented, the Company held a total of 5 TRSs subject to taxation. The Company’s TRSs will file separately as C-Corporations.

As a result of the Company’s election to be taxed as a REIT, during the year ended December 31, 2020, a $82.5 million deferred tax benefit was recorded to de-recognize the deferred tax assets and liabilities associated with the entities included in the REIT. A significant portion of the deferred tax benefit recognized relates to the de-recognition of deferred tax liabilities resulting from Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 like-kind exchanges (“1031 Exchanges”). The Company will be subject to corporate income taxes related to assets held by it that are sold during the 5-year period following the date of conversion to the extent such sold assets had a built-in gain as of January 1, 2020. The Company generally does not intend to dispose of any REIT assets after the REIT conversion within the 5-year period, unless various tax planning strategies, including 1031 Exchanges or other deferred tax structures are available to mitigate the built-in gain tax liability of conversion.

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.

Buc-ee’s. On March 31, 2021, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Indigo Development LLC, a Florida limited liability company (collectively, “CTO”) filed a Complaint for Declaratory Relief in the Circuit Court, Seventh Judicial Circuit, in and for Volusia County, Florida (Case No. 2021-30415-CICI) against Buc-ee’s Ltd., a Texas limited partnership (“Buc-ee’s”), in connection with a dispute over funds deposited in escrow by CTO in the amount of $0.8 million (the “Escrowed Funds”). The Escrowed Funds were deposited simultaneously with CTO’s sale to Buc-ee’s in March 2018 of 35 acres of real property located in Daytona Beach, Volusia County, Florida (the “Buc-ee’s Parcel”). Pursuant to a post-closing escrow agreement between CTO and Buc-ee’s, the Escrowed Funds were to be released to CTO once CTO had obtained certain wetlands-related permits for the benefit of a portion of the Buc-ee’s Parcel. CTO was ultimately successful in obtaining the permits, although the permits were issued later than originally contemplated by the escrow agreement. Buc-ee’s was aware of and acquiesced to CTO’s continuing efforts and expenditures in obtaining the permits, including after the date originally contemplated in the escrow agreement; however, not until after the permits were issued did Buc-ee’s inform CTO that Buc-ee’s would not  agree to release the Escrowed Funds to CTO. CTO’s complaint seeks a declaratory judgment determining the parties’ entitlement to the Escrowed Funds and to reimburse CTO for its costs associated with seeking legal relief.

Contractual Commitments – Expenditures

The Company has committed to fund commitments on eight income properties. The improvements on such properties are estimated to be completed generally within twelve months. These commitments, as of June 30, 2021, are as follows (in thousands):

	As of June 30, 2021
Total Commitment (1)	$	10,877
Less Amount Funded		(1,610)
Remaining Commitment	$	9,267

⁽¹⁾     Commitment includes tenant improvements, leasing commissions, rebranding, facility expansion and other capital improvements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Operating Agreement of the Mitigation Bank JV executed in conjunction with the mitigation bank transaction stipulates that the Company shall arrange for sales of the Mitigation Bank JV’s mitigation credits to unrelated third parties totaling no less than $6.0 million of revenue to the Mitigation Bank JV, net of commissions, by the end of 2020, utilizing 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 cause the Company to purchase the number of mitigation credits necessary to reach the Minimum Sales Guarantee. As a result of not having achieved the Minimum Sales Requirement prior to December 31, 2020, during the first and second quarters of 2021, the Company has had active discussions with BlackRock regarding the Minimum Sales Guarantee. Based on those discussions, the Company currently anticipates that the Minimum Sales Guarantee payment would be paid to BlackRock in the latter half of 2021. The Company is also in discussion with BlackRock regarding the Company’s potential buyout of BlackRock’s position in the Mitigation Bank JV, the timing of which could occur in the latter half of 2021. There can be no assurances regarding the likelihood, timing, or final terms of such potential buyout.

During June 2018, upon closing the Mitigation Bank JV, the Company estimated the fair value of the Minimum Sales Guarantee at $0.1 million 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 June 30, 2021, the Company considers the $0.1 million reasonable as upon payment of the Minimum Sales Guarantee, the Company will obtain mitigation credits, or the right to such credits, which would be recorded as an asset at the time of payment.

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 $0.8 million related to the portion of the acreage sold for which the Company was obligated to perform wetlands mitigation. As a result of the Company’s obligation, $0.8 million of the sales price collected at closing was deferred and the revenue was to be recognized upon the Company’s performance of the obligation. See Note 23, “Commitments and Contingencies” for further discussion related to the escrowed funds.

When we refer to “we,” “us,” “our,” or “the Company,” we mean CTO Realty Growth, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. References to “Notes to Financial Statements” refer to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of CTO Realty Growth, Inc. included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Forward-Looking Statements

Statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the documents that are incorporated by reference, that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Also, when the Company uses any of the words “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” or similar expressions, the Company is making forward-looking statements. Management believes the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon present expectations and reasonable assumptions. However, the Company’s actual results could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise such forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required by law.  The risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements, include, but are not limited to, the following:  

● we are subject to risks related to the ownership of commercial real estate that could affect the performance and value of our properties;

● our business is dependent upon our tenants successfully operating their businesses, and their failure to do so could materially and adversely affect us;

● competition that traditional retail tenants face from e-commerce retail sales, or the integration of brick and mortar stores with e-commerce retail operators, could adversely affect our business;

● we operate in a highly competitive market for the acquisition of income properties and more established entities or other investors may be able to compete more effectively for acquisition opportunities than we can;

● the loss of revenues from our income property portfolio or certain tenants would adversely impact our results of operations and cash flows;

● our revenues include receipt of management fees and potentially incentive fees derived from our provision of management services to Alpine Income Property Trust, Inc. (“PINE”)  and the loss or failure, or decline in the business or assets, of PINE could substantially reduce our revenues;

● there are various potential conflicts of interest in our relationship with PINE, including our executive officers and/or directors who are also officers and/or directors of PINE, which could result in decisions that are not in the best interest of our stockholders;

● a prolonged downturn in economic conditions could adversely impact our business, particularly with regard to our ability to maintain revenues from our income-producing assets and our ability to monetize parcels of land the Land JV (as defined below);

● a part of our investment strategy is focused on investing in commercial loan and master lease investments which may involve credit risk;

● we may suffer losses when a borrower defaults on a loan and the value of the underlying collateral is less than the amount due;

● the Company’s real estate investments are generally illiquid;

● if we are not successful in utilizing the like-kind exchange structure in deploying the proceeds from dispositions of income properties, or our like-kind exchange transactions are disqualified, we could incur significant taxes and our results of operations and cash flows could be adversely impacted;

● the Company may be unable to obtain debt or equity capital on favorable terms, if at all, or additional borrowings may impact our liquidity or ability to monetize any assets securing such borrowings;

● servicing our debt requires a significant amount of cash, and we may not have sufficient cash flow from our business to service or pay our debt;

● our operations and properties could be adversely affected in the event of natural disasters, pandemics, or other significant disruptions;

● we may encounter environmental problems which require remediation or the incurrence of significant costs to resolve, which could adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows;

46

● failure to qualify as real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, or failure to remain qualified as a REIT, would cause us to be taxed a regular corporation, which would substantially reduce funds available for distribution to stockholders;

● the risk that the REIT requirements could limit our financial flexibility;

● our limited experience operating as a REIT;

● our ability to pay dividends consistent with the REIT requirements, and expectations as to timing and amounts of such dividends;

● the ability of our board of directors (the “Board”) to revoke our REIT status without stockholder approval;

● our exposure to changes in U.S. federal and state income tax laws, including changes to the REIT requirements; and

● an epidemic or pandemic (such as the outbreak and worldwide spread of the novel coronavirus (the “COVID-19 Pandemic”)), and the measures that international, federal, state and local governments, agencies, law enforcement and/or health authorities implement to address it, may precipitate or materially exacerbate one or more of the above-mentioned and/or other risks and may significantly disrupt or prevent us from operating our business in the ordinary course for an extended period.

The Company describes the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ materially in “Risk Factors” (Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020), “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” (Part I, Item 3 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q), and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” (Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q).

OVERVIEW

We are a publicly traded diversified REIT that was founded in 1910. We own and manage, sometimes utilizing third-party property management companies, 20 commercial real estate properties in 10 states in the United States. As of June 30, 2021, we owned 12 single-tenant and eight multi-tenant income-producing properties comprising 2.7 million square feet of gross leasable space.

In addition to our income property portfolio, as of June 30, 2021, our business included the following:

Management Services:

● A fee-based management business that is engaged in managing PINE and the entity that currently holds 1,600 acres of undeveloped land in Daytona Beach, Florida (the “Land JV”), see Note 6, “Related Party Management Services Business”.

Commercial Loan and Master Lease Investments:

● A portfolio of two commercial loan investments and two commercial properties, which are included in the 20 commercial real estate properties above, whose leases are classified as commercial loan and master lease investments.

Real Estate Operations:

● A portfolio of subsurface mineral interests associated with approximately 420,000 surface acres in 20 counties in the State of Florida and a portfolio of mitigation credits (“Subsurface Interests”);  

● A retained interest in the Land JV, which has entered into an agreement to sell substantially all of its remaining 1,600 acres of undeveloped land in Daytona Beach, Florida; and

● An interest in a joint venture that owns a 2,500 acre parcel of land in the western part of Daytona Beach, Florida  and which is engaged in the operation of a mitigation bank (the “Mitigation Bank JV”), which, pursuant to a mitigation plan approved by the applicable state and federal authorities, produces mitigation credits that are marketed and sold to developers of land in the Daytona Beach area for the purpose of enabling the developers to obtain certain regulatory permits.

47

Our business also includes our investment in PINE. As of June 30, 2021, our investment totaled $38.8 million, or 15.8% of the PINE’s outstanding equity, including the units of limited partnership interest (“OP Units”) we hold in Alpine Income Property OP, LP (the “PINE Operating Partnership”), which are redeemable for cash, based upon the value of an equivalent number of shares of PINE common stock at the time of the redemption, or shares of PINE common stock on a one-for-one basis, at PINE’s election. Our investment in PINE generates investment income through the dividends distributed by PINE. In addition to the dividends we receive from PINE, our investment in PINE may benefit from any appreciation in PINE’s stock price, although no assurances can be provided that such appreciation will occur, the amount by which our investment will increase in value, or the timing thereof. Any dividends received from PINE are included in investment and other income (loss) on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Our strategy for investing in income-producing properties is focused on factors including, but not limited to, long-term real estate fundamentals and target markets, including major markets or those markets experiencing significant economic growth. 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.).

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. We sold one multi-tenant income property and nine single-tenant income properties, which included a ground lease, during the six months ended June 30, 2021. As a result of entering the exclusivity and right of first offer agreement with PINE (the “Exclusivity and ROFO Agreement”) which generally prevents us from investing in single-tenant net lease income properties, our income property investment strategy will be focused primarily on multi-tenant retail and office properties. We may pursue this strategy by monetizing certain of our single-tenant properties, and should we do so, we would seek to utilize the 1031 like-kind exchange structure to preserve the tax-deferred gain on the original transaction(s) that pertains to the replacement asset.

We believe investment in income-producing assets provides attractive opportunities for generally stable cash flows and the potential for increased returns over the long run. In 2020, we experienced a short term decrease in cash from operations as our tenants were impacted by the COVID-19 Pandemic and certain tenants’ rents were abated or deferred during the year. A prolonged imposition of mandated closures or other social-distancing guidelines as a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic may adversely impact more our tenants’ ability to generate sufficient revenues, and could force additional tenants to default on their leases, or result in the bankruptcy or insolvency of tenants, which would diminish the rental revenue we receive under our leases. The rapid development and fluidity of the pandemic precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact on our business.

Our current portfolio of 12 single-tenant income properties generates $18.2 million of revenues from annualized straight-line base lease payments and had a weighted average remaining lease term of 21.1 years as of June 30, 2021. Our current portfolio of eight multi-tenant properties generates $28.0 million of revenue from annualized straight-line base lease payments and had a weighted average remaining lease term of 6.3 years as of June 30, 2021.

We self-developed two single-tenant net lease restaurant properties on a six-acre beachfront parcel in Daytona Beach, Florida. The development was completed in January of 2018 and rent commenced from both tenants pursuant to their separate leases. 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. Through June 30, 2021, we have invested $5.7 million, including raze and entitlement costs, to acquire six acres in downtown Daytona Beach that is located in an opportunity zone. Our investments in vacant land or land with existing structures would target opportunistic acquisitions of select sites, which may be 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.

REIT CONVERSION

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had completed certain internal reorganization transactions necessary to begin operating in compliance with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the taxable year ended December 31, 2020.

COVID-19 PANDEMIC

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the novel coronavirus as a pandemic (the “COVID-19 Pandemic”), which has spread throughout the United States. The impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic has evolved rapidly, with many jurisdictions taking drastic measures to limit the spread of the virus by instituting quarantines or lockdowns and imposing travel restrictions. Such actions have created significant disruptions to global supply chains, and adversely impacted several industries, including airlines, hospitality, retail and the broader real estate industry.

As a result of the approval of multiple COVID-19 vaccines for use and the distribution of such vaccines among the general population, a number of jurisdictions have reopened and loosened restrictions. However, wide disparities in vaccination rates and continued vaccine hesitancy, combined with the emergence of COVID-19 variants and surges in COVID-19 cases, could trigger the reinstatement of further restrictions. Such restrictions could include mandatory business shut-downs, travel restrictions, reduced business operations and social distancing requirements.

The future impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the real estate industry and the Company’s financial condition and results of operations is uncertain and cannot be predicted currently since it depends on several factors beyond the control of the Company, including, but not limited to: (i) the uncertainty surrounding the severity and duration of the COVID-19 Pandemic, including possible recurrences and differing economic and social impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic in various regions of the United States; (ii) the effectiveness of the United States public health response; (iii) the COVID-19 Pandemic’s impact on the United States and global economies; (iv) the timing, scope and effectiveness of additional governmental responses to the COVID-19 Pandemic; (v) the availability of a treatment and effectiveness of vaccines approved for COVID-19 and the willingness of individuals to get vaccinated; (vi) changes in how certain types of commercial property are used while maintaining social distancing and other techniques intended to control the impact of COVID-19; (vii) the impact of phase out of economic stimulus measures, the inflationary pressure of economic stimulus, and the eventual halt and reversal by the U.S. Treasury of asset purchases; and (viii) the uneven impact on the Company’s tenants, real estate values and cost of capital.

Contractual Base Rent (“CBR”) represents the amount owed to the Company under the current terms of its lease agreements.

Commercial Loan and Master Lease Investments. In light of the COVID-19 Pandemic, during the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company began marketing its commercial loan portfolio in advance of their upcoming maturities to further strengthen the Company’s liquidity. The Company received multiple bids including a bid offering a value that was at a discount to par. Additionally, the Company implemented guidance regarding current expected credit losses (“CECL”) effective January 1, 2020, which resulted in an allowance reserve of $0.3 million. The CECL reserve combined with the impairment related to marketing the loan portfolio resulted in an aggregate impairment charge on the loan portfolio of $1.9 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company sold four of its commercial loan investments in two separate transactions generating aggregate proceeds of $20.0 million, resulting in a loss of $0.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020. The total loss on the loan portfolio disposition, including the impairment and CECL reserve charges in the three months ended March 31, 2020, was $2.1 million.

There were no losses on the Company’s commercial loan and master lease investments portfolio during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

2025 Note Repurchases. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company repurchased $0.8 million aggregate principal amount of 2025 Notes at a $0.01 million premium, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.1 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company repurchased $12.5 million aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes at a cash discount of $2.6 million, resulting in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $1.1 million, net of the pro-rata share of the conversion value.

Mortgage Note Payable. In connection with the disposition of the CMBS Portfolio during the second quarter of 2021 and related assumption by the buyer of  the Company’s $30.0 million fixed-rate mortgage note payable, the Company recognized a $0.5 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to the write-off of unamortized financing costs.

Impairment Charges. There were no impairment charges on the Company’s undeveloped land holdings, or its income property portfolio during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The $16.5 million impairment charge, net of the $4.1 million related income tax benefit, recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2021 is related to the Company’s retained interest in the Land JV as a result of the estimated proceeds to be received in connection with the contract entered into with Timberline Acquisition Partners, an affiliate of Timberline Real Estate Partners, for the sale of substantially all of its remaining land, including any land that was previously under contract, for $67.0 million.

Investment and Other Income (Loss)

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the closing stock price of PINE increased by $4.03 per share, with a closing price of $19.02 on June 30, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the closing stock price of PINE decreased by $2.77 per share, with a closing price of $16.26 on June 30, 2020. The increase (decrease) resulted in an unrealized, non-cash gain (loss) on the Company’s investment in PINE of $8.2 million  and ($5.6) million which is included in investment and other income (loss) in the consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The Company earned dividend income from the investment in PINE of $1.0 million and $0.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Interest Expense

Interest expense totaled $4.9 million and $5.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease of $1.0 million is primarily attributable to utilization of a rate swap on $100.0 million principal balance of the credit facility, payoff of the Company’s $23.2 million variable-rate mortgage note during the first quarter of 2021, and the lower outstanding balance on the 2025 Notes, in addition to the lower rate on the 2025 Notes, compared to the 2020 Notes.  

55

Net Income

Net income totaled $4.1 million and $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.  The increase in net income is attributable to the factors described above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash totaled $18.6 million at June 30, 2021, including restricted cash of $13.9 million, see Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” under the heading Restricted Cash for the Company’s disclosure related to its restricted cash balance at June 30, 2021.

Our total cash balance at June 30, 2021 reflected cash flows provided by our operating activities totaling $18.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to cash flows provided by operating activities totaling $9.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $8.6 million. The increase of $8.6 million is primarily related to the increase in the cash flows provided by real estate operations of $4.0 million which was driven by the sale of $2.6 million of Subsurface Interests. This increase was partially offset by an aggregate decrease in cash inflows of $0.5 million related to income properties, which was primarily the result of timing related to the reinvestment of recently disposed assets, and interest from commercial loan and master lease investments. The change in operating cash was also impacted by various other differences with regard to timing of payments within other assets, accounts payable, and accrued and other liabilities.

Our cash flows used in investing activities totaled $80.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to cash flows used in investing activities of $88.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $7.5 million. The decrease in cashed used in investing activities of $7.5 million is primarily related to decreased cash outflows of $32.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020 comprised of $24.4 million related to income property acquisitions, the origination of two commercial loan and master lease investments totaling $6.4 million, and $1.2 million related to the cost basis of 16 mitigation credits provided at no cost to buyers. Additionally, there was a decrease of cash inflows of $21.0 million related to four commercial loan and master lease investments sold during the second quarter of 2020 in addition to $3.5 million of additional proceeds received from dispositions during the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2021.

Our cash flows provided by financing activities totaled $47.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to cash flows used in financing activities of $16.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, an increase  of $63.2 million. The increase of $63.2 million is primarily related to the impact of (i) net draws on the Company’s Credit Facility of $19.5 million, (ii) origination of the $50.0 million 2026 Term Loan under the Company’s Credit Facility and subsequent exercise of the accordion option for $15.0 million, (iii) payoff of the $23.2 million variable-rate mortgage note, and (iv) convertible note repurchases of $0.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to net draws on the Credit Facility of $3.0 million and convertible note repurchases of $9.9 million during the same period in 2020. Increased cash inflows further benefited from decreased cash outflows of $4.1 million related to stock buybacks during the six months ended June 30, 2020, which aggregate increases were partially offset by increased cash outflows of $9.4 million of dividends paid during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Long-Term Debt. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $25.7 million available on the Credit Facility. See Note 17, “Long-Term Debt” for the Company’s disclosure related to its long-term debt balance at June 30, 2021.

Acquisitions and Investments. As noted previously, the Company acquired three multi-tenant income properties during the six months ended June 30, 2021 for an aggregate purchase price of $111.0 million, as further described in Note 4, “Income Properties”.

The Company’s guidance for 2021 investments in income-producing properties totals between $175.0 million and $225.0 million. We expect to fund future acquisitions utilizing cash on hand, cash from operations, proceeds from the dispositions of income properties through 1031 like-kind exchanges, and potentially the sale of all or a portion of our Subsurface Interests, and borrowings on our Credit Facility, if available. We expect dispositions of income properties and subsurface interests will qualify under the like-kind exchange deferred-tax structure, and additional financing sources.

56

Dispositions. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company disposed of one multi-tenant income property and nine single-tenant income properties for total disposition volume of $65.5 million, generating aggregate gains of $5.4 million, as further described in Note 4, “Income Properties”.

Contractual Commitments – Expenditures.

The Company has committed to fund commitments on eight income properties. The improvements on such properties are estimated to be completed generally within twelve months. These commitments, as of June 30, 2021, are as follows (in thousands):

	As of June 30, 2021
Total Commitment (1)	$	10,877
Less Amount Funded		(1,610)
Remaining Commitment	$	9,267

⁽¹⁾     Commitment includes tenant improvements, leasing commissions, rebranding, facility expansion and other capital improvements.

As of June 30, 2021, we have no other contractual requirements to make capital expenditures.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. See Note 23, “Commitments and Contingencies” for the Company’s disclosure related to the Mitigation Bank JV $6.0 million minimum sales requirement and potential buyout discussions.

Other Matters. We believe we will have sufficient liquidity to fund our operations, capital requirements, maintenance, and debt service requirements over the next twelve months and into the foreseeable future, with cash on hand, cash flow from our operations and $25.7 million available capacity on the existing $210.0 million Credit Facility, based on our current borrowing base of income properties, as of June 30, 2021.

Our Board and management consistently review the allocation of capital with the goal of providing the best long-term return for our stockholders. 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. Our strategy is to utilize leverage, when appropriate and necessary, and proceeds from sales of income properties, the disposition or payoffs on our commercial loan and master lease investments, and certain transactions in our subsurface interests, to acquire income properties. We may also acquire or originate commercial loan and master lease investments, invest in securities of real estate companies, or make other shorter-term investments. Our targeted investment classes may include the following:

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

● Single-tenant retail and office, double or triple net leased, properties in major metropolitan areas and growth markets that are compliant with our commitments under the Exclusivity and ROFO agreement;

● Purchase or origination of ground leases, that are compliant with our commitments under the Exclusivity and ROFO agreement;

● Self-developed properties on Company-owned land including select retail and office;

● Joint venture development using Company-owned land;

● Origination or purchase of commercial loan and master lease investments with loan terms of 1-10 years with strong risk-adjusted yields secured by property types to include hotel, office, retail, residential, 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.

57

Our investments in income-producing properties are typically subject to long-term leases. For multi-tenant properties, each tenant typically pays its proportionate share of the aforementioned operating expenses of the property, although for such properties we typically incur additional costs for property management services. Single-tenant leases are typically in the form of triple or double net leases and ground leases. Triple-net leases generally require the tenant to pay property operating expenses such as real estate taxes, insurance, assessments and other governmental fees, utilities, repairs and maintenance, and capital expenditures.

Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures

Our reported results are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). We also disclose Funds From Operations (“FFO”) and Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”), both of which are non-U.S. GAAP financial measures. We believe these two non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they are widely accepted industry measures used by analysts and investors to compare the operating performance of REITs.

FFO and AFFO do not represent cash generated from operating activities and are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash requirements; accordingly, they should not be considered alternatives to net income as a performance measure or cash flows from operating activities as reported on our statement of cash flows as a liquidity measure and should be considered in addition to, and not in lieu of, U.S. GAAP financial measures.

We compute FFO in accordance with the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT. NAREIT defines FFO as U.S. GAAP net income or loss adjusted to exclude extraordinary items (as defined by U.S. GAAP), net gain or loss from sales of depreciable real estate assets, impairment write-downs associated with depreciable real estate assets and real estate related depreciation and amortization, including the pro rata share of such adjustments of unconsolidated subsidiaries. The Company also excludes the gains or losses from sales  of assets  incidental to the primary business of the REIT which specifically include the sales of mitigation credits, impact fee credits, subsurface sales, and the land sales gains included in discontinued operations. To derive AFFO, we modify the NAREIT computation of FFO to include other adjustments to U.S. GAAP net income related to non-cash revenues and expenses such as straight-line rental revenue, amortization of deferred financing costs, amortization of capitalized lease incentives and above- and below-market lease related intangibles, and non-cash compensation. Such items may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on operating cash flows or long-term operating performance. We use AFFO as one measure of our performance when we formulate corporate goals.

FFO is used by management, investors and analysts to facilitate meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and among our peers primarily because it excludes the effect of real estate depreciation and amortization and net gains on sales, which are based on historical costs and implicitly assume that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time, rather than fluctuating based on existing market conditions. We believe that AFFO is an additional useful supplemental measure for investors to consider because it will help them to better assess our operating performance without the distortions created by other non-cash revenues or expenses. FFO and AFFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 summarized in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and more fully described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Judgments and estimates of uncertainties are required in applying our accounting policies in many areas. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, 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, 2020.

Refer to Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for the Company’s disclosure related to recently issued accounting pronouncements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

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 $210.0 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 level of borrowing as a percentage of our total asset value. The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements to hedge against changes in future cash flows resulting from fluctuating interest rates related to certain of its debt borrowings, see Note 18, “Interest Rate Swaps”. As of June 30, 2021, the outstanding balance on our Credit Facility was $184.3 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 $1.8 million. By virtue of fixing the variable rate, our exposure to changes in interest rates is minimal but for the impact on other comprehensive income and loss. 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 June 30, 2021, 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 June 30, 2021, 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.

Buc-ee’s. On March 31, 2021, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Indigo Development LLC, a Florida limited liability company (collectively, “CTO”) filed a Complaint for Declaratory Relief in the Circuit Court, Seventh Judicial Circuit, in and for Volusia County, Florida (Case No. 2021-30415-CICI) against Buc-ee’s Ltd., a Texas limited partnership (“Buc-ee’s”), in connection with a dispute over funds deposited in escrow by CTO in the amount of $0.8 million (the “Escrowed Funds”).  The Escrowed Funds were deposited simultaneously with CTO’s sale to Buc-ee’s in March 2018 of 35 acres of real property located in Daytona Beach, Volusia County, Florida (the “Buc-ee’s Parcel”).  Pursuant to a post-closing escrow agreement between CTO and Buc-ee’s, the Escrowed Funds were to be released to CTO once CTO had obtained certain wetlands-related permits for the benefit of a portion of the Buc-ee’s Parcel.  CTO was ultimately successful in obtaining the permits, although the permits were issued later than originally contemplated by the escrow agreement.  Buc-ee’s was aware of and acquiesced to CTO’s continuing efforts and expenditures in obtaining the permits, including after the date originally contemplated in the escrow agreement; however, not until after the permits were issued did Buc-ee’s inform CTO that Buc-ee’s would not  agree to release the Escrowed Funds to CTO. CTO’s complaint seeks a declaratory judgment determining the parties’ entitlement to the Escrowed Funds and to reimburse CTO for its costs associated with seeking legal relief.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

For a discussion of the Company’s potential risks and uncertainties, see the information under the heading Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. 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.

As of June 30, 2021, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those set forth within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
