THE ST. JOE COMPANY

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollars in thousands, unless otherwise stated)

(Unaudited)

1. Nature of Operations

The St. Joe Company together with its consolidated subsidiaries (“St. Joe” or the “Company”) is a Florida real estate development, asset management and operating company with all of its real estate assets and operations in Northwest Florida. Approximately 86% of the Company’s real estate is located in Florida’s Bay, Gulf, and Walton counties. Approximately 90% of the Company’s real estate land holdings are located within fifteen miles of the Gulf of Mexico.

The Company conducts primarily all of its business in the following three reportable segments: 1) residential, 2) hospitality and 3) commercial. See Note 17. Segment Information.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements are not included herein. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries, voting interest entities where the Company has a majority voting interest or control and variable interest entities where the Company deems itself the primary beneficiary. Investments in joint ventures (“JV”) in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary, or a voting interest entity where the Company does not have a majority voting interest or control, but has significant influence are unconsolidated and accounted for by the equity method. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The December 31, 2022 condensed consolidated balance sheet amounts have been derived from the Company’s December 31, 2022 audited consolidated financial statements. Certain prior period amounts in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s previously reported total assets and liabilities, stockholders’ equity or net income. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2023.

A variable interest entity (“VIE”) is an entity in which a controlling financial interest may be achieved through arrangements that do not involve voting interests. A VIE is required to be consolidated by its primary beneficiary, which is the entity that possesses the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that are significant to the VIE. The Company consolidates VIEs when it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The Company continues to evaluate whether it is the primary beneficiary as needed when assessing reconsideration events. See Note 4. Joint Ventures.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained herein. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company adheres to the same accounting policies in preparation of its unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as the Company’s December 31, 2022 annual financial statements, except for any recently adopted accounting pronouncements. As required under GAAP, interim accounting for certain expenses, including income taxes, are based on full year assumptions. For interim financial reporting purposes, income taxes are recorded based upon estimated annual income tax rates.

Concentration of Risks and Uncertainties

All of the Company’s real estate assets are concentrated in Northwest Florida. Uncertain economic conditions could have an adverse impact on the Company’s operations and asset values.

Throughout the first nine months of 2023, the Company continued to generate positive financial results. While macroeconomic factors such as inflation, rising interest rates and insurance costs, supply chain disruptions, financial institution disruptions and geopolitical conflicts, among other things, have created economic headwinds and impacted buyer sentiment, demand across the Company’s segments remains strong. The Company believes this is primarily the result of the continued growth of Northwest Florida, which the Company attributes to the region’s high quality of life, natural beauty and outstanding amenities, as well as the evolving flexibility in the workplace.

Despite the strong demand across the Company’s segments, the Company also continues to feel the impact from the aforementioned macroeconomic factors, including supply chain disruptions which have extended the time to complete hospitality and commercial projects. In addition, inflation and rising insurance costs and interest rates, have increased operating costs and loan rates, as compared to prior periods. In addition, while rising interest rates have negatively impacted buyers’ ability to obtain financing and the housing market generally, the impact has been offset by the net migration into the Company’s markets, limited housing supply relative to demand and the number of cash buyers. Market conditions have also not led to increased cancellation rates as homebuilders have continued to perform on their contractual obligations with the Company.

Given our diverse portfolio of residential holdings, the mix of sales and pricing from different communities may also impact revenue and margins period over period.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents, investments, other receivables and investments held by special purpose entity or entities (“SPE”). The Company deposits and invests cash with local, regional and national financial institutions, and as of September 30, 2023, these balances exceeded the amount of F.D.I.C. insurance provided on such deposits. In addition, as of September 30, 2023 the Company had $48.8 million invested in short-term U.S. Treasury Bills and $1.6 million invested in U.S. Treasury Money Market Funds classified as cash and cash equivalents and $10.0 million invested in U.S. Treasury Bills classified as investments – debt securities.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to the Company by the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to the Company by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, including potential dilutive common shares. The treasury stock method is used to determine the effect on diluted earnings. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had 57,923 and 29,955, respectively, unvested shares of restricted stock. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, 37,212 and 29,955, respectively, potentially dilutive restricted stock units were excluded from the calculation of diluted income per share and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, 49,885 and 26,784, respectively, potentially dilutive restricted stock units were excluded from the calculation of diluted income per share, since the effect would have been anti-dilutive based on the application of the treasury stock method. See Note 14. Stockholders’ Equity for additional information related to the issuance of common stock for employee compensation.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (“Topic 848”): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting that provided temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for or recognizing the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting. The guidance provided expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria were met. The amendments applied only to contracts and hedging relationships that referenced London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate that was expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) which clarified the original guidance that certain optional expedients and exceptions in contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848 that extended the temporary reference rate reform guidance under Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. This guidance was effective upon issuance and could be applied prospectively through December 31, 2024, as reference rate activities occurred. In 2022 and the first half of 2023, some of the Company’s debt agreements that referenced LIBOR were amended to an alternative rate and on July 1, 2023, the remainder of the Company’s debt agreements that referenced a benchmark interest rate index based on LIBOR automatically transitioned to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). Topic 848 was applied at the time of these modifications and there was no impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Leases Common Control Arrangements

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, Leases (Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements (“ASU 2023-01”) that improves accounting guidance for arrangements between entities under common control. The new guidance requires that leasehold improvements associated with common control leases be amortized by the lessee over the useful life of the leasehold improvements to the common control group, as long as the lessee controls the use of the underlying asset through a lease. When the lessee no longer controls the use of the underlying asset, the leasehold improvements are accounted for as a transfer between entities under common control through an adjustment to equity. This guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The guidance can be applied prospectively to all new leasehold improvements recognized on or after adoption and any remaining unamortized balance of existing leasehold improvements amortized over their remaining useful life to the common control group, or retrospectively to the beginning of the period in which the entity first applied Leases Topic 842 through a cumulative-

effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Business Combinations – Joint Venture Formations

In August 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-05, Business Combinations – Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60): Recognition and Initial Measurement (“ASU 2023-05”) that requires a joint venture to apply a new basis of accounting upon formation by recognizing and initially measuring its assets and liabilities at fair value. This guidance will be effective prospectively for all joint ventures with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025, with early adoption permitted. A joint venture formed before January 1, 2025 may elect to apply the guidance retrospectively if sufficient information is available. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

4. Joint Ventures

The Company enters into JVs, from time to time, for the purpose of developing real estate and other business activities in which the Company may or may not have a controlling financial interest. GAAP requires consolidation of voting interest entities where the Company has a majority voting interest or control and VIEs in which an enterprise has a controlling financial interest and is the primary beneficiary. A controlling financial interest will have both of the following characteristics: (i) the power to direct the VIE activities that most significantly impact economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company examines specific criteria and uses judgment when determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary and must consolidate a VIE. The Company continues to evaluate whether it is the primary beneficiary as needed when assessing reconsideration events. Investments in JVs in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary, or a voting interest entity where the Company does not have a majority voting interest or control, but has significant influence are unconsolidated and accounted for by the equity method.

The timing of cash flows for additional required capital contributions related to the Company’s JVs varies by agreement. Some of the Company’s consolidated and unconsolidated JVs have entered into financing agreements where the Company or its JV partners have provided guarantees. See Note 9. Debt, Net and Note 18. Commitments and Contingencies for additional information.

Investment in unconsolidated joint ventures

(a)	See Note 9. Debt, Net for additional information.

(b)

Interest rate swap was entered into by the Pier Park TPS JV, which is unconsolidated and accounted for using the equity method. The derivative asset has been recorded at the Company’s proportionate share of its estimated fair value. The Company’s proportionate share of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures in the period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. See Note 4. Joint Ventures and Note 18. Commitments and Contingencies for additional information.

The following is a summary of the effect of derivative instruments on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income and condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income:


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022

Amount of net gain recognized in other comprehensive income on derivatives	$	664	$	1,734	$	1,182	$	5,155
Amount of net (gain) loss reclassified into interest expense	$	(428)	$	—	$	(1,166)	$	52
Amount of net (gain) loss reclassified into equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures	$	(45)	$	15	$	(115)	$	98

As of September 30, 2023, based on current value, the Company expects to reclassify $1.9 million of derivative instruments from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings during the next twelve months. See Note 13. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income for additional information.

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

The Company evaluates its investment in unconsolidated JVs for impairment during each reporting period. A series of operating losses of an investee or other factors may indicate that a decrease in the value of the Company’s investment in the unconsolidated JV has occurred. The amount of impairment recognized is the excess of the investment’s carrying value over its estimated fair value. The fair value of the Company’s investment in unconsolidated JVs is determined primarily using a discounted cash flow model to value the underlying net assets or cash flows of the respective JV. The fair value of investment in unconsolidated JVs required to be assessed for impairment is determined using Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. No impairment for unconsolidated JVs was recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. See Note 4. Joint Ventures for additional information.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company uses the following methods and assumptions in estimating fair value for financial instruments:

●

The fair value of the investments held by SPEs - time deposit is based on the present value of future cash flows at the current market rate.

●

The fair value of the investments held by SPEs - U.S. Treasury Bills are measured based on quoted market prices in an active market.

	September 30,				September 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Tax at the federal statutory rate	$	5,496	$	3,467	$	18,109	$	12,063

In general, a valuation allowance is recorded if, based on all available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Realization of the Company’s deferred tax assets is dependent upon the Company generating sufficient taxable income in future years in the appropriate tax jurisdictions to obtain a benefit from the reversal of deductible temporary differences and from loss carryforwards. As of both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s valuation allowance was $0.3 million against certain state net operating loss carryforwards.

Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company's uncertain tax positions and determining its provision for income taxes. The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from potential examinations to determine the adequacy of its provision for income taxes and applies a “more-likely-than-not” in determining the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in the tax returns. The Company has not identified any material unrecognized tax benefits as of either September 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

17. Segment Information

The Company conducts primarily all of its business in the following three reportable segments: (1) residential, (2) hospitality and (3) commercial. The Company’s reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. They are each managed separately and decisions about allocations of resources are determined by management based on these strategic business units. The Company uses income before income taxes and non-controlling interest and other qualitative measures for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to each segment and assessing each segment’s performance, which the Company believes represents current performance measures.

The accounting policies of the segments are set forth in Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements contained in Item 15 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

18. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company establishes an accrued liability when it is both probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company will evaluate the range of reasonably estimated losses and record an accrued liability based on what it believes to be the minimum amount in the range, unless it believes an amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount. In such cases, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of the amounts accrued. The Company evaluates quarterly whether further developments could affect the amount of the accrued liability previously established or would make a loss contingency both probable and reasonably estimable.

The Company also provides disclosure when it believes it is reasonably possible that a material loss will be incurred or when it believes it is reasonably possible that the amount of a loss will exceed the recorded liability. The Company reviews loss contingencies at least quarterly to determine whether the likelihood of loss has changed and to assess whether a reasonable estimate of the loss or range of loss can be made. This estimated range of possible losses is based upon currently available information and is subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions, as well as known and unknown uncertainties. The matters underlying the estimated range will change from time to time, and actual results may vary significantly from the current estimate.

The Company is subject to a variety of litigation, claims, other disputes and governmental proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of its business, including litigation related to its prior homebuilding and development activities. The Company cannot make assurances that it will be successful in defending these matters. Based on current knowledge, the Company does not believe that loss contingencies arising from pending litigation, claims, other disputes and governmental proceedings, including those described herein, will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or liquidity of the Company. However, in light of the inherent uncertainties involved in these matters, an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could be material to the Company’s results of operations or cash flows for any particular reporting period.

The Company is subject to costs arising out of environmental laws and regulations, which include obligations to remove or limit the effects on the environment of the disposal or release of certain wastes or substances at various sites, including sites which have been previously sold. It is the Company’s policy to accrue and charge against earnings environmental cleanup costs when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and a range of loss can be reasonably estimated. As assessments and cleanups proceed, these accruals are reviewed and adjusted, if necessary, as additional information becomes available. The Company is in the process of assessing certain properties in regard to the effects, if any, on the environment from the disposal or release of wastes or substances. Management is unable to quantify future rehabilitation costs above present accruals at this time or provide a reasonably estimated range of loss.

Other litigation, claims and disputes, including environmental matters, are pending against the Company. Accrued aggregate liabilities related to the matters described above and other litigation matters were $0.4 million as of both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Significant judgment is required in both the determination of probability and whether the amount of an exposure is reasonably estimable. Due to uncertainties related to these matters, accruals are based only on the information available at the time. As additional information becomes available, management reassesses potential liabilities related to pending claims and litigation and may revise its previous estimates, which could materially affect the Company’s results of operations for any particular reporting period.

The Company has retained certain self-insurance risks with respect to losses for third party liability and property damage, including its timber assets.

In 2020, the Company, as lender, entered into a $10.0 million secured revolving promissory note with the unconsolidated Latitude Margaritaville Watersound JV, as borrower. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was no balance outstanding on the Latitude JV Note. The Latitude JV Note was provided by the Company to finance the development of the pod-level, non-spine infrastructure. Future advances, if any, will be repaid by the JV as each home is sold by the JV, with the aggregate unpaid principal and all accrued and unpaid interest due at maturity in June 2025. The note is secured by a mortgage and security interest in and on the real property and improvements located on the real property of the JV. See Note 4. Joint Ventures for additional information.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company was required to provide surety bonds that guarantee completion and maintenance of certain infrastructure in certain development projects and mitigation banks, as well as other financial guarantees of $41.0 million and $38.1 million, respectively, as well as standby letters of credit in the amount of $0.2 million and $17.3 million, respectively, which may potentially result in liability to the Company if certain obligations of the Company are not met.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had a total of $58.8 million in construction and development related contractual obligations.

In 2019, the Company’s unconsolidated Pier Park TPS JV, entered into a $14.4 million loan (the “Pier Park TPS JV Loan”). The loan bears interest at SOFR plus 2.6% and provides for monthly principal and interest payments with a final balloon payment at maturity in January 2026. The loan is secured by the real and personal property and certain other Security Interests. In connection with the loan, the Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company’s JV partner entered into a joint and several payment and performance guarantee in favor of the lender. The Company’s liability as guarantor under the Pier Park TPS JV Loan has been reduced to 25% of the outstanding principal balance, which requires maintaining a certain debt service coverage. The guarantee contains customary provisions providing for full recourse upon the occurrence of certain events. The Pier Park TPS JV entered into an interest rate swap to hedge cash flows tied to changes in the underlying floating interest rate tied to SOFR. The interest rate swap matures in January 2026 and fixed the variable rate on the related debt, initially at $14.4 million to a rate of 5.2%. Effective July 2023, the benchmark interest rate index based on LIBOR transitioned to SOFR. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $13.6 million and $13.8 million, respectively, was outstanding on the Pier Park TPS JV Loan. See Note 4. Joint Ventures and Note 6. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements for additional information.

In 2020, the Company’s unconsolidated Latitude Margaritaville Watersound JV, entered into a $45.0 million loan, as amended (the “Latitude Margaritaville Watersound JV Loan”). The loan bears interest at SOFR plus 2.5%, with a floor of 3.0%. The loan provides for monthly interest payments with a final balloon payment at maturity in December 2025, with an option to extend the maturity date by one year, subject to bank approval. The loan is secured by the real and personal property and certain other Security Interests. In connection with the loan, the Company and the Company’s JV partner entered into an unconditional guaranty of completion of certain homes and related improvements in favor of the lender. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $10.8 million and $30.0 million, respectively, was outstanding on the Latitude Margaritaville Watersound JV Loan. See Note 4. Joint Ventures for additional information.

In 2021, the Company’s unconsolidated Watersound Fountains Independent Living JV, entered into a $41.9 million loan (the “Watersound Fountains JV Loan”). The loan bears interest at SOFR plus 2.1%, with a floor of 2.6%. Effective July 2023, the benchmark interest rate index based on LIBOR transitioned to SOFR. The loan provides for interest only payments for the first forty-eight months and principal and interest payments thereafter with a final balloon payment at maturity in April 2026. The loan includes an option for an extension of the maturity date by twelve months, subject to certain conditions, which would provide for continued monthly principal and interest payments with a final balloon payment at the extended maturity date. The loan is secured by the real property and certain other Security Interests. In connection with the loan, the Company executed a guarantee in favor of the lender to guarantee the completion of the project and payment and performance of the borrower under the Watersound Fountains JV Loan. The Company’s liability as guarantor under the loan will be reduced to 50% of the outstanding principal amount upon issuance of the certificate of occupancy and reduced to 25% and a further 0% of the outstanding principal balance upon reaching and maintaining certain debt service coverage. The guarantee contains customary provisions providing for full recourse upon the occurrence of certain events. The Company is the sole guarantor and receives a quarterly fee related to the guarantee from its JV partners based on the JV partners’ ownership percentage. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $34.7 million and $21.3 million, respectively, was outstanding on the Watersound Fountains JV Loan. See Note 4. Joint Ventures for additional information.

In September 2022, the Company’s unconsolidated Electric Cart Watersound JV, entered into a $5.4 million loan (the “Electric Cart Watersound JV Loan”). The loan bears interest at SOFR plus 1.8%, with a floor of 2.1%. The loan provides for interest only payments for the first twenty-four months and principal and interest payments thereafter with a final balloon payment at maturity in September 2032. The loan is secured by the real property and certain other Security Interests. In connection with the loan, the Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Electric Cart Watersound JV entered into a joint and several payment and performance guarantee in favor of the lender. After the

initial forty-eight months of the loan, the Company’s liability as guarantor under the loan will be reduced to 50% of the outstanding principal balance upon reaching a certain debt service coverage and other conditions. The Company is the sole guarantor and receives a quarterly fee related to the guarantee from its JV partner based on the JV partner’s ownership percentage. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $4.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively, was outstanding on the Electric Cart Watersound JV Loan. See Note 4. Joint Ventures for additional information.

The Company has assessed the need to record a liability for the guarantees related to the Company’s unconsolidated JVs and did not record an obligation as of both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. As of both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, allowance for credit losses related to the contingent aspect of these guarantees, based on historical experience and economic trends, was $0.1 million and is included within accounts payable and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Business Overview

St. Joe is a real estate development, asset management and operating company with all of its real estate assets and operations in Northwest Florida. We intend to use existing assets for residential, hospitality and commercial ventures. We have significant residential and commercial land-use entitlements. We actively seek higher and better uses for our real estate assets through a range of development activities. As part of our core business strategy, we have created a meaningful portion of our business through joint ventures and limited partnerships over the past several years. We enter into these arrangements for the purposes of developing real estate and other business activities, which we believe allows us to complement our growth strategy, leverage industry expertise and diversify our business. We may also partner with or explore the sale of discrete assets when we and/or others can better deploy resources. We seek to enhance the value of our owned real estate assets by developing residential, commercial and hospitality projects to meet market demand. Approximately 86% of our real estate is located in Florida’s Bay, Gulf, and Walton counties. Approximately 90% of our real estate land holdings are located within fifteen miles of the Gulf of Mexico.

We believe our present capital structure, liquidity and land provide us with years of opportunities to increase recurring revenue and long-term value for our shareholders. We intend to focus on our core business activity of real estate development, asset management and operations. We continue to develop a broad range of asset types that we believe will provide acceptable rates of return, grow recurring revenues and support future business. Capital commitments will be funded with cash proceeds from completed projects, existing cash, owned-land, partner capital and financing arrangements. We do not anticipate immediate benefits from investments. Timing of projects may be subject to delays caused by factors beyond our control. We may also choose to operate rather than lease assets, lease rather than sell assets, or sell improved rather than unimproved land that may delay revenue and profits.

Table of Contents

Our real estate investment strategy focuses on projects that meet long-term risk-adjusted return criteria. Our practice is to only incur such expenditures when our analysis indicates that a project will generate a return equal to or greater than the threshold return over its life.

Highlights for the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022 include:

●

Quarterly net income attributable to the Company increased by 57.2% to $19.4 million compared to $12.3 million.

●

Quarterly revenue increased by 76.0% to $101.4 million from $57.6 million.

●

Real estate revenue increased by 130.6% to $39.9 million from $17.3 million.

●

Hospitality revenue increased by 63.4% to a quarterly record of $47.4 million from $29.0 million.

●

Leasing revenue increased by 29.7% to $13.1 million from $10.1 million. As of September 30, 2023, the 1,082,000 of net rentable square feet were 96% leased.

●

Homesite closings volume increased 225.6% to 254 homesites from 78 homesites.

●

Latitude Margaritaville Watersound JV, an unconsolidated joint venture, completed home sale transactions increased by 61.5% to 189 homes as compared to 117 homes.

Market Conditions

Throughout the first nine months of 2023, we continued to generate positive financial results. While macroeconomic factors such as inflation, rising interest rates and insurance costs, supply chain disruptions, financial institution disruptions and geopolitical conflicts, among other things, have created economic headwinds and impacted buyer sentiment, demand across our segments remains strong. We believe this is primarily the result of the continued growth of Northwest Florida, which we attribute to the region’s high quality of life, natural beauty and outstanding amenities, as well as the evolving flexibility in the workplace.

Despite the strong demand across our segments, we also continue to feel the impact from the aforementioned macroeconomic factors, including supply chain disruptions which have extended the time to complete hospitality and commercial projects. In addition, inflation and rising insurance costs and interest rates, have increased operating costs and loan rates, as compared to prior periods. In addition, while rising interest rates have negatively impacted buyers’ ability to obtain financing and the housing market generally, the impact has been offset by the net migration into our markets, limited housing supply relative to demand and the number of cash buyers. Market conditions have also not led to increased cancellation rates as homebuilders have continued to perform on their contractual obligations with us.

Given our diverse portfolio of residential holdings, the mix of sales and pricing from different communities may also impact revenue and margins period over period, as discussed in more detail below.

Reportable Segments

We conduct primarily all of our business in the following three reportable segments: (1) residential, (2) hospitality and (3) commercial.

The following table sets forth the relative contribution of these reportable segments to our consolidated operating revenue:


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Segment Operating Revenue
Residential	35.0	%	26.1	%	42.0	%	37.1	%

For more information regarding our reportable segments see Note 17. Segment Information.

Residential Segment

Our residential segment typically plans and develops residential communities of various sizes across a wide range of price points and sells homesites to homebuilders or retail consumers. Our residential segment also evaluates opportunities to enter into JV agreements for specific communities such as Latitude Margaritaville Watersound.

Our residential segment includes the Watersound Origins, Watersound Origins West, Watersound Camp Creek, Breakfast Point East, Titus Park, Ward Creek, College Station, Park Place, Salt Creek at Mexico Beach, WindMark Beach and SouthWood communities, which are large scale, multi-phase communities with current development activity, sales activity or future phases. Homesites in these communities are developed based on market demand and sold primarily to homebuilders and on a limited basis to retail customers.

The East Lake Creek, East Lake Powell, Lake Powell, Teachee, West Bay Creek and West Laird communities have phases of homesites in preliminary planning or permitting. Homesites in these communities will be developed based on market demand and sold primarily to homebuilders and on a limited basis to retail customers.

The SummerCamp Beach community has homesites available for sale and along with the RiverCamps community, both have additional lands for future development.

The Latitude Margaritaville Watersound community is a planned 55+ active adult residential community in Bay County, Florida. The community is located near the Intracoastal Waterway with convenient access to the Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport. The community is being developed through our unconsolidated Latitude Margaritaville Watersound JV with our partner Minto Communities USA, a homebuilder and community developer, and is estimated to include approximately 3,500 residential homes, which will be developed in smaller increments of discrete neighborhoods. As of September 30, 2023, the unconsolidated Latitude Margaritaville Watersound JV had 632 homes under contract, which are expected to result in a sales value of approximately $330.4 million at closing of the homes. See Note 4. Joint Ventures for additional information.

(a)	The number of homesites are preliminary and are subject to change. Includes homesites platted or currently in concept planning, engineering, permitting or development. We have significant additional entitlements for future residential homesites on our land holdings.

(b)	Planned Unit Development (“PUD”).

(c)	Development Agreement (“DA”).

(d)	Detailed Specific Area Plan (“DSAP”).

(e)	The unconsolidated Latitude Margaritaville Watersound JV builds and sells homes in this community.

(f)	Development of Regional Impact (“DRI”).

In addition to the communities listed above, we have a number of other residential project concepts in various stages of planning and evaluation.

As of September 30, 2023, we had nineteen different homebuilders within our residential communities. As of September 30, 2023, we had 1,575 residential homesites under contract, which are expected to result in revenue of approximately $135.5 million, plus residuals, at closing of the homesites over the next several years. By comparison, as of September 30, 2022, we had 2,376 residential homesites under contract, with an expected revenue of approximately $186.3 million, plus residuals. The change in homesites under contract is due to increased homesite transactions in the first nine months of 2023 and amount of remaining homesites in current phases of the residential communities. There were no cancellations of any contracts held by builders in the current period. The number of homesites under contract is subject to change based on homesite closings and new sales activity. Homesite prices vary significantly by community and often sell in concentrated transactions that may impact quarterly results. As of September 30, 2023, in addition to the 1,575 homesites under contract in other residential communities, our unconsolidated Latitude Margaritaville Watersound JV had 632 homes under contract, which together with the 1,575 homesites are expected to result in a sales value of approximately $465.9 million at closing of the homesites and homes.

Hospitality Segment

Our hospitality segment features a private membership club (the “Watersound Club”), hotel operations, food and beverage operations, golf courses, beach clubs, retail outlets, gulf-front vacation rentals, management services, marinas

From time to time, we may explore the sale of certain hospitality properties, the development of new hospitality properties, as well as new entertainment and management opportunities. Some of our JV assets and other assets incur interest and financing expenses related to loans as described in Note 9. Debt, Net.

Commercial Segment

Our commercial segment includes leasing of commercial property, multi-family, senior living, self-storage and other assets. The commercial segment also oversees the planning, development, entitlement, management and sale of our commercial and rural land holdings for a variety of uses, including a broad range of retail, office, hotel, senior living, multi-family, self-storage and industrial properties. We provide development opportunities for national, regional and local retailers and other strategic partners in Northwest Florida.

campus in Bay County, Florida. We also have large land holdings near the Pier Park retail center, adjacent to the Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport, near or within business districts in the region and along major roadways. We also lease land for various other uses. The commercial segment also manages our timber holdings in Northwest Florida which includes growing and selling pulpwood, sawtimber and other products.

The commercial segment generates leasing revenue and incurs leasing expenses primarily from maintenance and management of our properties, personnel costs and asset holding costs. Our commercial segment also generates revenue from the sale of developed and undeveloped land, timber holdings or land with limited development and/or entitlements and the sale of commercial operating properties. Real estate sales in our commercial segment incur costs of revenue directly associated with the land, development, construction, timber and selling costs. Our commercial segment generates timber revenue primarily from open market sales of timber on site without the associated delivery costs. Some of our JV assets and other assets incur interest and financing expenses related to loans as described in Note 9. Debt, Net.

The commercial segment’s portfolio of leasable properties continues to expand and diversify. Through wholly-owned subsidiaries and consolidated and unconsolidated JVs we are in the process of constructing or renovating 156 multi-family units and 148 senior living units, in addition to the 972 multi-family units and 107 senior living units that have been completed.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We base these estimates on historical experience, available current market information and on various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Additionally, we evaluate the results of these estimates on an on-going basis. Management’s estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions and our accounting estimates are subject to change.

Critical accounting policies that we believe reflect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements are set forth in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. There have been no significant changes in these policies during the first nine months of 2023, however we cannot assure you that these policies will not change in the future.

Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for recently issued or adopted accounting standards, including the date of adoption and effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Seasonality and Market Variability

Our operations may be affected by seasonal fluctuations. The revenues and earnings from our business segments may vary significantly from period to period. Homebuilders tend to buy multiple homesites in sporadic transactions. In addition, homesite prices vary significantly by community, which further impacts period over period results. Therefore, there may be reporting periods in which we have no, or significantly less, revenue from residential or commercial real estate sales. We may also choose to operate rather than lease assets, lease rather than sell assets, or sell improved rather than unimproved land that may delay revenue and profits.

Hospitality revenues are typically higher in the second and third quarters, and vary depending on the timing of holidays and school breaks. Commercial real estate sales tend to be non-recurring. Projects depend on uncertain demand. Extraordinary events such as hurricanes or public health emergencies may dramatically change demand and pricing for products and services.

Residential Real Estate Revenue and Gross Profit. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, residential real estate revenue increased $20.5 million, or 136.7%, to $35.5 million, as compared to $15.0 million during the same period in 2022. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, residential real estate gross profit increased $7.3 million to $16.4 million (or gross margin of 46.2%), as compared to $9.1 million (or gross margin of 60.7%) during the same period in 2022. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we sold 254 homesites and had no unimproved residential land sales, compared to 78 homesites and an unimproved residential land sale of $0.9 million during the same period in 2022. During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the average base revenue, excluding homesite residuals, per homesite sold was approximately $103,000 and $141,000, respectively. The decrease in average base revenue per homesite sold during the current period was due to the mix of sales from different communities. The revenue, gross profit and margin for each period was impacted by the difference in pricing among the communities, the difference in the cost of the homesite development and the volume of sales within each of the communities. The number of homesites sold varied each period due to the timing of homebuilder contractual closing obligations in our residential communities.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, residential real estate revenue increased $56.2 million, or 79.5%, to $126.9 million, as compared to $70.7 million during the same period in 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, residential real estate gross profit increased $23.2 million to $62.3 million (or gross margin of 49.1%), as compared to $39.1 million (or gross margin of 55.3%) during the same period in 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we sold 881 homesites and had unimproved residential land sales of $0.6 million, compared to 490 homesites and unimproved residential land sales of $1.1 million during the same period in 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the average base revenue, excluding homesite residuals, per homesite sold was approximately $105,000 and $117,000, respectively. The decrease in average base revenue per homesite sold during the current period was due to the mix of sales from different communities. The current period homesite sales also include the sale of 100 entitled but undeveloped homesites sold within the SouthWood community, compared to 42 in the prior period, which reduced the average price per homesite. The revenue, gross profit and margin for each period was impacted by the difference in pricing among the communities, the difference in the cost of the homesite development and the volume of sales within each of the communities. The number of homesites sold varied each period due to the timing of homebuilder contractual closing obligations in our residential communities.

Commercial and Rural Real Estate Revenue and Gross Profit. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we had five commercial and rural real estate sales totaling approximately 29 acres for $3.1 million and land

Table of Contents

improvement services of less than $0.1 million, together resulting in a gross profit of $1.8 million (or gross margin of 58.1%). During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we had nine commercial and rural real estate sales totaling approximately 18 acres for $1.4 million and land improvement services of $0.1 million, together resulting in a gross profit of $0.7 million (or gross margin of 46.7%).

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we had twenty-one commercial and rural real estate sales totaling approximately 212 acres for $13.9 million and land improvement services of $0.3 million, together resulting in a gross profit of $8.2 million (or gross margin of 57.7%). During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had twenty-one commercial and rural real estate sales totaling approximately 194 acres for $8.7 million and land improvement services of $0.9 million, together resulting in a gross profit of $7.2 million (or gross margin of 75.0%). Revenue from commercial and rural real estate can vary significantly from period-to-period depending on the proximity to developed areas and mix of real estate sold in each period, with varying compositions of retail, office, industrial, rural and other commercial uses.

Our gross margin can vary significantly from period-to-period depending on the characteristics of property sold. Sales of rural and timber land typically have a lower cost basis than residential and commercial real estate sales. In addition, our cost basis in residential and commercial real estate can vary depending on the amount of development or other costs incurred on the property.

Other Revenue. Other revenue primarily consists of mitigation bank credit sales and title insurance business revenue.

The increase in lodging revenue was related to The Pearl Hotel, which we acquired in December 2022; Embassy Suites by Hilton Panama City Beach Resort, which opened in April 2023; The Lodge 30A, which opened in February 2023; Home2 Suites by Hilton Santa Rosa Beach and Hotel Indigo Panama City Marina, which both opened in June 2023; Homewood Suites by Hilton Panama City Beach, which opened in March 2022; new WaterColor Inn suites, which opened in June 2022; and Camp Creek Inn, which opened in June 2023. The increase in hospitality revenue was also due to the opening of a standalone restaurant and marinas. As of September 30, 2023, Watersound Club had 3,088 members, compared with 2,573 members as of September 30, 2022, an increase of 515 members. Hospitality had a gross margin of 21.0% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 22.3% during the same period in 2022. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to the opening costs associated with the opening of five new hotels in the current period.

Real estate revenue includes sales of homesites and other residential land and certain homesite residuals from homebuilder sales that provide us a percentage of the sale price of the completed home if the home price exceeds a negotiated threshold. Leasing revenue includes long-term leases of residential assets. Other revenue includes tap and impact fee credits sold and marketing fees. Certain homesite residuals and other revenue related to homebuilder homesite sales are recognized in revenue at the point in time of the closing of the sale. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, real estate revenue includes estimated homesite residuals of $4.9 million and $1.0 million, respectively, and other revenue includes estimated fees related to homebuilder homesite sales of $1.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, real estate revenue includes estimated homesite residuals of $20.0 million and $3.6 million, respectively, and other revenue includes estimated fees related to homebuilder homesite sales of $4.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively. The increase in estimated homesite residuals and fees related to homebuilder homesite sales was due to the mix and number of homesites sold per community in the current period. Cost of real estate revenue includes direct costs (e.g., development and construction costs), selling costs and other indirect costs.

Homesites. Revenue from homesite sales increased $19.6 million, or 151.9%, during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to the mix and number of homesites sold per community and the timing of homebuilder contractual closing obligations in our residential communities. During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the average base revenue, excluding homesite residuals, per homesite sold was approximately $103,000 and $141,000, respectively. The decrease in average base revenue per homesite sold during the current period was due to the mix of sales from different communities. Gross margin decreased to 44.6% during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to 57.4% during the same period in 2022, primarily due to the cost, mix and number of homesites sold from different communities during each respective period. Gross margin may vary each period depending on the location of homesite sales.

Land sales. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we did not have any unimproved residential land sales. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we had unimproved residential land sales of $0.9 million, with de minimis cost of revenue.

Other operating expenses include salaries and benefits, property taxes, marketing, professional fees, project administration, owner association and CDD assessments and other administrative expenses.

Investment income, net primarily consists of interest earned on our notes receivable and unimproved land contribution to our unconsolidated Latitude Margaritaville Watersound JV as home sales are transacted in the community. See Note 4. Joint Ventures for additional information. Interest expense primarily consists of interest incurred on our portion of the total outstanding CDD debt. See Note 9. Debt, Net for additional information.

Gain on contributions to unconsolidated joint ventures for both the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, includes a gain of less than $0.1 million on additional infrastructure improvements contributed to our unconsolidated Latitude Margaritaville Watersound JV. See Note 4. Joint Ventures for additional information.

Equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures includes our proportionate share of earnings or losses of unconsolidated joint ventures accounted for by the equity method. Equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures increased $6.6 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022.

The following discussion sets forth details of the consolidated results of operations of our residential segment.

Homesites. Revenue from homesite sales increased $54.1 million, or 84.7%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to the mix and number of homesites sold per community and the timing of homebuilder contractual closing obligations in our residential communities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the average base revenue, excluding homesite residuals, per homesite sold was approximately $105,000 and $117,000, respectively. The decrease in average base revenue per homesite sold during the current period was due to the mix of sales from different communities. The current period homesite sales also include the sale of 100 entitled but undeveloped homesites sold within the SouthWood community, compared to 42 in the prior period, which reduced the average price per homesite. Gross margin decreased to 48.4% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to 53.8% during the same period in 2022, primarily due to the cost, mix and number of homesites sold from different communities during each respective period. Gross margin may vary each period depending on the location of homesite sales.

Land sales. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we had unimproved residential land sales of $0.6 million, resulting in a gross margin of approximately 83.3%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had unimproved residential land sales of $1.1 million, with de minimis cost of revenue.

Other operating expenses include salaries and benefits, property taxes, marketing, professional fees, project administration, owner association and CDD assessments and other administrative expenses.

Revenue from our clubs increased $3.9 million, or 36.1%, during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022. The increase in revenue in the current period was due to increases in the number of club members and membership revenue, as well as the opening of new Camp Creek amenities in April 2023 and Camp Creek Inn in June 2023. Our clubs gross margin was 21.8% during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 32.4% during the same period in 2022. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to opening and ongoing operating costs for the new Camp Creek Inn and amenities during the current period.

Revenue from our hotel operations increased $14.1 million, or 94.6%, during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to an increase in lodging revenue from The Pearl Hotel, which we acquired in December 2022; Embassy Suites by Hilton Panama City Beach Resort, which opened in April 2023; The Lodge 30A, which opened in February 2023; and Home2 Suites by Hilton Santa Rosa Beach and Hotel Indigo Panama City Marina, which both opened in June 2023. Hotels had a gross margin of 24.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 24.2% during the same period in 2022.

Revenue from other hospitality operations increased $0.6 million, or 19.4%, during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022. The increase in other hospitality revenue was primarily related to revenue from a new standalone restaurant, which opened in August 2022, Point South Marina Bay Point, which reopened in the third quarter of 2022 and Point South Marina Port St. Joe, which reopened in the fourth quarter of 2022. Our other hospitality operations had a gross margin of 24.3% during the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to a negative gross margin of 3.2% during the same period in 2022. The increase in gross margin was due to new assets being operational in the current period, compared to the prior period.

Leasing revenue includes marina boat slip and dry storage rentals.

Other operating expenses include salaries and benefits, professional fees and other administrative expenses.

The increase of $4.0 million in depreciation, depletion and amortization expense during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to new properties placed in service.

Interest expense primarily includes interest incurred from our hospitality project financing. The increase of $2.5 million in interest expense during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to an increase in project financing and higher interest rates. See Note 9. Debt, Net for additional information.

Other income, net for the three months ended September 30, 2022, includes $0.8 million of income received from the Pier Park CDD for repayment of subordinated notes.

The following discussion sets forth details of the consolidated results of operations of our commercial segment.

Total leasing revenue increased $2.5 million, or 25.5%, during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to new multi-family and senior living leases, as well as other new leases. Leasing gross margin decreased to 52.0% during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to 54.1% during the same period in 2022, primarily due to increased operating costs, as well as start-up and lease-up expenses in the current period.

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we had five commercial and rural real estate sales totaling approximately 29 acres for $3.1 million and land improvement services of less than $0.1 million, together resulting in a gross margin of approximately 58.1%. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we had nine commercial and rural real estate sales totaling approximately 18 acres for $1.4 million and land improvement services of $0.1 million, together resulting in a gross margin of approximately 53.3%.

Timber revenue decreased $0.2 million, or 16.7%, to $1.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to $1.2 million in the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the tons of wood products sold and the sales mix of different wood products. There were 48,000 tons of wood products sold during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to 60,000 tons of wood products sold during the same period in 2022. The average price of wood product sold increased to $17.77 per ton during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to $17.43 per ton during the same period in 2022. Timber gross margin was 80.0% during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to 83.3% during the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to less tons of wood products sold in the current period.

Hospitality revenue includes some of our short-term vacation rentals.

Other operating expenses include salaries and benefits, property taxes, CDD assessments, professional fees, marketing, project administration and other administrative expenses.

The increase of $0.8 million in depreciation, depletion and amortization expense during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to new properties placed in service.

Interest expense primarily includes interest incurred from our commercial project financing and CDD debt. The increase of $1.2 million in interest expense during the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to an increase in project financing and higher interest rates. See Note 9. Debt, Net for additional information.

Gain on contributions to unconsolidated joint ventures for the three months ended September 30, 2022, includes a gain of $1.4 million on land contributed to our unconsolidated Pier Park RI JV. See Note 4. Joint Ventures for additional information.

Equity in (loss) income from unconsolidated joint ventures includes our proportionate share of earnings or losses of unconsolidated JVs accounted for by the equity method. See Note 4. Joint Ventures for additional information.

The following discussion sets forth details of the consolidated results of operations of our commercial segment.

Total leasing revenue increased $7.6 million, or 27.3%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to new multi-family and senior living leases, as well as other new leases. Total leasing gross margin decreased to 53.1% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to 57.2% during the same period in 2022, primarily due to increased operating costs, as well as start-up and lease-up expenses in the current period. As of September 30, 2023, we had net rentable square feet of approximately 1,082,000, of which approximately 1,036,000 square feet were under lease. As of September 30, 2022, we had net rentable square feet of approximately 1,043,000, of which approximately 971,000 square feet were under lease. As of September 30, 2023, our consolidated entities had 1,079 multi-family and senior living units completed, of which 960 were leased, compared to 807 multi-family and senior living units completed, of which 718 were leased as of September 30, 2022 (excludes multi-family units for the unconsolidated Sea Sound JV, which sold its assets in November 2022).

We believe the diversity of our commercial segment complements the growth of our residential and hospitality segments. Commercial and rural real estate revenue can vary depending on the proximity to developed areas and the mix and characteristics of commercial and rural real estate sold in each period, with varying compositions of retail, office, industrial, rural and other commercial uses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we had twenty-one commercial and rural real estate sales totaling approximately 212 acres for $13.9 million and land improvement services of $0.3 million, together resulting in a gross margin of approximately 57.7%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had twenty-one commercial and rural real estate sales totaling approximately 194 acres for $8.7 million and land improvement services of $0.9 million, together resulting in a gross margin of approximately 75.0%. As our focus continues to evolve more towards recurring revenue from leasing operations, we expect to have limited commercial and rural real estate sales. Further, we may continue to transform and operate commercial properties for higher and better use.

Timber revenue decreased $1.5 million, or 27.3%, to $4.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to $5.5 million during the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in prices, partially offset by an increase in tons of wood products sold in the current period. There were 216,000 tons of wood products sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to 213,000 tons of wood products sold during the same period in 2022. The average price of wood product sold decreased to $16.62 per ton during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to $23.71 per ton during the same period in 2022. Timber gross margin was 85.0% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to 89.1% during the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the lower prices in the current period.

Other operating expenses include salaries and benefits, property taxes, CDD assessments, professional fees, marketing, project administration and other administrative expenses.

The increase of $2.4 million in depreciation, depletion and amortization expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to new properties placed in service.

Interest expense primarily includes interest incurred from our commercial project financing and CDD debt. The increase of $3.4 million in interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily due to an increase in project financing and higher interest rates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents and U.S. Treasury Bills classified as investments – debt securities of $102.0 million, compared to $78.3 million as of December 31, 2022. In addition to cash and cash equivalents, we consider our investments classified as available-for-sale securities (“Securities”), as being generally available to meet our liquidity needs. Securities are not as liquid as cash and cash equivalents, but they are generally convertible into cash within a relatively short period of time. See Note 5. Investments for additional information regarding our investments.

We believe that our current cash position, financing arrangements and cash generated from operations will provide us with sufficient liquidity to satisfy our anticipated working capital needs, expected capital expenditures, principal and interest payments on our long-term debt, capital contributions to JVs, Latitude JV Note commitment, authorized stock repurchases and authorized dividends for the next twelve months.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we invested a total of $176.3 million for capital expenditures, which includes $61.4 million for our residential segment, $59.7 million for our commercial segment, $54.3 million for our hospitality segment and $0.9 million for corporate expenditures. We anticipate that future capital commitments will be funded through cash generated from operations, new and existing financing arrangements, cash on hand and cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2023, we had a total of $58.8 million, primarily in construction and development related contractual obligations. Capital expenditures and contractual obligations exclude amounts related to unconsolidated joint ventures. See Note 4. Joint Ventures for additional information.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks primarily from interest rate risk fluctuations. We have investments in U.S. Treasury Bills that have fixed interest rates for which changes in interest rates generally affect the fair value of the investment, but not the earnings or cash flows. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates would result in a decrease of $0.1 million in the market value of these investments as of September 30, 2023. Any realized gain or loss resulting from such interest rate changes would only occur if we sold the investments prior to maturity or if a decline in their value is determined to be related to credit loss.

We have exposure to credit risk associated with our Securities and these instruments are subject to price fluctuations as a result of changes in the financial market’s assessment of issuer credit quality, increases in delinquency and default rates, changes in prevailing interest rates and other economic factors. A downgrade of the U.S. government’s credit rating may also decrease the value of our Securities. As of September 30, 2023, all of our Securities were rated AA or better.

Our cash and cash equivalents are invested in money market instruments. Changes in interest rates related to these investments would not significantly impact our results of operations.

The amount of interest expense on some of our project financing is based on SOFR. Based on the outstanding balance of these loans as of September 30, 2023, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in the applicable rate would result in an increase to our annual interest expense of $1.5 million.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. During the quarter ended September 30, 2023, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are subject to a variety of litigation, claims, other disputes and governmental proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business, none of which we believe will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity. In addition, we are subject to environmental laws and regulations, which include obligations to remove or limit the effects on the environment of the disposal or release of certain wastes or substances at various sites, including sites which have been previously sold. Refer to Note 18. Commitments and Contingencies, for further discussion.
