BBX Capital’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Alan B. Levan, commented, “Since the sale of BankAtlantic in 2012, BBX Capital, including its BBX Capital Real Estate Division and its BBX Capital Partners Division, has continued to grow and evolve, reflecting our broader goal of transitioning into a business with diverse cash flow streams and long term growth.
“As previously stated, our goal is to increase value over time as opposed to focusing on quarterly or annual earnings. Since we expect our investments to be longer term, we anticipate and are willing to accept that our earnings are likely to be uneven. While capital markets generally encourage short term results, our objective continues to be long term growth as measured by increases in book value per share over time,” Mr. Levan concluded.
_________
BBX Capital Real Estate Division: The BBX Capital Real Estate Division includes our real estate joint ventures and our BankAtlantic legacy portfolio of loans and foreclosed real estate. As previously announced, we are liquidating some legacy real estate and loans while holding and managing others for capital appreciation and development. We are also pursuing new real estate development opportunities unrelated to the legacy portfolios. We are currently actively engaged in real estate development and operating activities involving real estate obtained through foreclosure and real estate purchased from third parties, including land entitlement activities, property renovations, asset management, and pursuing joint venture opportunities involving the contribution of these properties to, and/or cash investments in, joint ventures with third party development partners.
The BBX Capital Real Estate Division reported revenues of $19.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $7.2 million during the three month periods ended June 30, 2014. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the BBX Capital Real Estate Division reported revenues of $21.5 million compared to $11.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Exhibit 99.1
Included in revenue during the second quarter of 2015 was the net gain of $15.5 million recognized in connection with the sale of its North Flagler properties in May 2015. The North Flagler properties consisted of two land parcels on Flagler Drive overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway and Currie Park in West Palm Beach: a 4.5 acre parcel and an adjacent 2.7 acre parcel. During 2015, BBX Capital, with the support of the city staff, CRA and neighborhood groups, was able to amend the zoning designation on the 2.7 acre parcel, increasing the residential height restriction from 4 stories in building height to up to 15 stories. We believe the change to the parcel’s height restriction had a significant impact on the property value. The 4.5 acre parcel was acquired for $10.8 million on May 15, 2015 by the Company's majority-owned joint venture with JRG USA. Upon closing, the joint venture immediately sold the parcel to a third party developer for $20.0 million. In accordance with the joint venture agreement, the Company received distributions of $6.7 million. Simultaneous with the sale of the 4.5 acre parcel, the Company sold the 2.7 acre parcel to the same buyer for $11.0 million. The 2.7 acre parcel was acquired by the Company through foreclosure and had a carrying value of $3.2 million as of May 15, 2015. Total gross proceeds of the two sales transactions were $31.0 million. Net proceeds, after closing costs, the purchase price of the 4.5 acre parcel and distributions to the Company's joint venture partner, totaled $17.7 million.
BankAtlantic Legacy Assets - Loans and Real Estate:
The BBX Capital Real Estate Division reported net recoveries from its legacy loan and real estate portfolios of $7.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to $2.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2014. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the BBX Capital Real Estate Division reported net recoveries from its legacy loan and real estate portfolios of $12.3 million compared with $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
On May 6, 2015, BBX Capital repaid the remaining balance of $6.1 million of BB&T Corporation’s preferred membership interest in Florida Asset Resolution Group, LLC (“FAR”). As a result, BBX Capital is now the sole owner of FAR, which held assets of $90.7 million as of June 30, 2015. FAR was formed in connection with the 2012 sale of BankAtlantic to BB&T when BankAtlantic contributed to FAR certain performing and non-performing loans, tax certificates and foreclosed real estate with a carrying value of $346 million as of July 31, 2012 and $50 million of cash. Upon consummation of the transaction with BB&T, BBX Capital transferred to BB&T Corporation a 95% preferred interest in the net cash flows of FAR which BB&T Corporation held until it had recovered an aggregate $285 million in preference amount plus a priority return of LIBOR + 200 basis points per annum on any unpaid preference amount. As a result of the repayment of its preferred membership interest, BB&T Corporation’s interest in FAR has been fully redeemed, and FAR is now wholly-owned by the Company.

Bluegreen Corporation
Bluegreen is a sales, marketing and resort management company, focused on the vacation ownership industry. Bluegreen is a wholly owned subsidiary of Woodbridge Holdings, LLC (“Woodbridge”). BBX Capital owns a 46% interest in Woodbridge and BFC owns the remaining 54% of Woodbridge. Woodbridge’s principal asset is its 100% ownership of Bluegreen Corporation (“Bluegreen”).
For the quarter ended June 30, 2015, net loss attributable to Woodbridge was $22.1 million. This loss was primarily the result of Woodbridge’s $36.5 million accrued liability related to the proposed settlement of the litigation brought by Bluegreen’s former public shareholders in connection with Woodbridge’s April 2013 acquisition of Bluegreen, partially offset by $15.0 million of earnings from Bluegreen’s operations. BBX Capital recognized 46% of the net loss attributable to Woodbridge, or $10.2 million, for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. For the six month period ended June 30, 2015, net loss attributable to Woodbridge was $9.5 million, primarily related to the above described $36.5 million accrued liability, partially offset by Bluegreen’s earnings from operations of $28.3 million.

First Six Months 2015 Highlights (Compared to First Six Months of 2014)
· | System-wide sales of Vacation Ownership Interests ("VOIs") were $249.1 million vs. $248.8 million, which includes sales of VOIs under Bluegreen's "capital-light" business strategy (2), of $189.4 million vs. $185.9 million, gross of equity trade allowances: |

(2) | Bluegreen’s sales of VOIs under its capital-light business strategy include sales of VOIs under fee-based sales and marketing arrangements, just-in-time inventory acquisition arrangements, and secondary market arrangements. Under “Just in Time” arrangements, Bluegreen enters into agreements with third party developers that allow Bluegreen to buy VOI inventory from time to time in close proximity to the timing of when Bluegreen intends to sell such VOIs. Bluegreen also acquires VOI inventory from resorts' property owner associations ("POAs") and other third parties close to the time Bluegreen intends to sell such VOIs. Such VOIs are typically obtained by the POAs through foreclosure in connection with maintenance fee defaults, and are generally acquired by Bluegreen at a significant discount. Bluegreen refers to sales of inventory acquired through these arrangements as "Secondary Market Sales". |

Bluegreen Summary for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2015
System-wide sales of VOIs were $139.9 million and $249.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, compared to $139.0 million and $248.8 million
6
Exhibit 99.1
during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. System-wide sales of VOIs during the second quarter of 2015 benefited by an increase in the number of sales transactions of 2%, while the average sale price per transaction increased by 1% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. Sales to existing owners were 45.2% during the second quarter of 2015 and 48.2% during the first six months of 2015.
Selling and marketing expenses, as a percentage of system-wide sales, increased to 50% during the three months ended June 30, 2015 from 47% during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and increased to 51% during the six months ended June 30, 2015 from 47% during the six months ended June 30, 2014. The increases in the 2015 periods reflect Bluegreen’s decision to increase its marketing efforts to new prospects as opposed to existing owners, which resulted in higher costs per tour from new and expanding marketing channels. The number of new prospect tours increased 7% during the second quarter of 2015 and 5% during the first six months of 2015 compared to the same periods of 2014. Sales to existing owners generally involve lower marketing expenses than sales to new prospects. Bluegreen expects to continue to increase its focus on sales to new prospects and, as a result, sales and marketing expenses generally and as a percentage of sales may increase.
Other Fee-Based Services pre-tax profits, which are primarily generated from providing resort and club management services as well as title services totaled $10.7 million and $22.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, which represent increases of 3% and 5%, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2014. As of both June 30, 2015 and 2014, Bluegreen managed 48 timeshare resort properties and hotels.
Net interest spread was $12.6 million and $9.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $22.0 million and $19.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The increase in net interest spread during the 2015 periods primarily reflect lower costs of borrowings, lower average outstanding debt balances, and interest income of $1.6 million from BFC related to an $80.0 million loan made to BFC by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bluegreen. These increases were partially offset by increased interest expense related to Bluegreen’s issuance of notes in a securitization transaction during 2015 and a new line of credit, and a decrease in the size of Bluegreen’s VOI notes receivable portfolio as Bluegreen continues to seek higher cash sales and larger customer down payments on financed sales as well as increased Fee-Based Sales.
Bluegreen’s free cash flow decreased to $30.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to $50.0 million in the prior year period. This decrease is primarily due to $19.7 million of development expenditures during the 2015 period compared to $1.2 million in the 2014 period. Bluegreen’s development expenditures primarily related to Bluegreen/Big Cedar Vacations, LLC, Bluegreen’s 51%-owned resort development joint venture with affiliates of Bass Pro Shops.

EBITDA | $ | 62,946 | $ | 70,216 |
EBITDA is defined as earnings, or net income, before taking into account interest income (excluding interest earned on VOI notes receivable), interest expense (excluding interest expense incurred on financings related to Bluegreen’s receivable-backed notes payable), provision for income taxes and franchise taxes, depreciation and amortization. For purposes of the EBITDA calculation, no adjustments were made for interest income earned on Bluegreen’s VOI notes receivable or the interest expense incurred on debt that is secured by such notes receivable because they are both considered to be part of the operations of Bluegreen’s business.
We consider Bluegreen’s EBITDA to be an indicator of its operating performance, and it is used to measure Bluegreen’s ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures and expand its business. EBITDA is also used by companies, lenders, investors and others because it excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. For example, interest expense can be dependent on a company’s capital structure, debt levels and credit ratings. Accordingly, the impact of interest expense on earnings can vary significantly among companies. The tax positions of companies can also vary because of their differing abilities to take advantage of tax benefits and because of the tax policies of the jurisdictions in which they operate. As a result, effective tax rates and provision for income taxes can vary considerably among companies. EBITDA also excludes depreciation and amortization because companies utilize productive assets of different ages and use different methods of both acquiring and depreciating productive assets. These differences can result in considerable variability in the relative costs of productive assets and the depreciation and amortization expense among companies.
