PART I
Item 1. Business.
Indian River Citrus Investors Limited Partnership (the "Registrant")
was organized under the Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts on December 24, 1984 for the purpose of owning and
operating a commercial citrus grove located near Stuart, Martin County, Florida.
The Registrant was initially capitalized with a contribution of $1,000 from
Winthrop Agricultural Management II, Inc. (the "General Partner"), the general
partner of the Partnership. The General Partner is a Massachusetts corporation
wholly-owned by Winthrop Financial Associates, a Limited Partnership, a Maryland
limited partnership ("WFA").
Until December 22, 1994, Arthur J. Halleran, Jr. was the sole general
partner of Linnaeus Associates Limited Partnership ("Linnaeus") which is the
sole general partner of WFA. On December 22, 1994, pursuant to an Investment
Agreement entered into among Nomura Asset Capital Corporation ("NACC"), Mr.
Halleran and certain other individuals who comprise the senior management of
WFA, the general partnership interest in Linnaeus was transferred to W.L.
Realty, L.P. ("W.L. Realty"). W.L. Realty is a Delaware limited partnership, the
general partner of which is A.I. Realty Company, LLC ("Realtyco"). The equity
securities of Realtyco are currently held by certain employees of NACC. Such
securities are subject to a call option agreement pursuant to which NACC may, at
any time, elect to purchase such securities for $1.00.
On January 9, 1985, the Registrant filed a Registration Statement on
Form S-1 (SEC File No. 2-95219) (the "Registration Statement") with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") with respect to a public
offering of 25,000 units of limited partnership interest ("Units") in the
Registrant which was amended by Amendment No. 3 thereto to reduce the size of
the offering to 15,500 Units at a purchase price of $1,000 per Unit (as so
amended, the "Registration Statement"). The Registration Statement was declared
effective on December 16, 1985. The offering terminated on March 31, 1986, at
which time 15,500 Units representing $15,500,000 of capital contributions from
Limited Partners, had been subscribed for.
The Registrant's only business is owning and operating a commercial
citrus grove consisting of approximately 3,150 acres of land and related
improvements and equipment located near Stuart, Martin County, Florida (the
"Grove" or "Property"). The Grove and the Registrant's financing arrangements
therefor are described at pages 19-20 and 38-41 under the captions "The Grove"
and "Acquisition of the Grove and Financing Arrangements," in the Registrant's
Prospectus dated December 16, 1985 (the "Prospectus") contained in the
Registration Statement, which description is incorporated herein by this
reference. The Registrant's business is described at pages 22-36 of the
Prospectus under the caption "Business", which description is incorporated
herein by this reference.
On April 12, 1993, the Registrant borrowed $8 million from NationsBank of
Florida (the "New Loan") for the purpose of refinancing the existing $8 million
first mortgage loan encumbering the Grove. Interest only is payable at a
variable rate equal to NationsBank's prime rate, less 1%. Principal is payable
in full on the maturity date, January 31, 1996. The New Loan is nonrecourse and
is secured by a first mortgage on the Grove and by guarantees given by the
General Partner and by First Winthrop Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of
WFA. The liability under the guarantees is limited to $2 million. See Note 7 of
Notes to Financial Statements for additional information related to existing
financing arrangements.
Item 2. Properties.
The Registrant owns no properties other than the Grove which is
described under Item 1 above.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
The Registrant is not a part, nor are any of its properties subject, to
any material pending legal proceedings.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
No matters were submitted.
PART II
Item 5. Market for the Registrant's United Limited Partnership Interests and
Related Security Holder Matters.
(a) Market Information. The Registrant is a partnership and thus has no
common stock. There is no active market for the Units. Trading in the Units is
sporadic and occurs solely through private transactions.
(b) Holders. As of March 1, 1995, there were 1,345 holders of record who
owned the 15,500 outstanding Units.
(c) Dividends. All profits and losses of Registrant are allocated to the
holders of Registrant's partnership interests. Distribution of cash are made in
accordance with Registrant's partnership agreement. On May 15, 1990, cash
distributions totalling $1,665,389 or $96.70 per $1,000 Unit, were made. On
August 14, 1991, cash distributions totalling $391,414 or $25.00 per $1,000 Unit
were made. There were no distributions made in 1992, 1993, and 1994.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
The Registrant has completed its ninth full year of citrus operations
at the Grove. Citrus production at the Grove is estimated to be approximately
733,000 boxes for the 1994-1995 crop year, an 11% increase from the 660,000
boxes produced in the 1993-1994 crop year, and a 5.5% increase from the
1992-1993 production level of 695,000.
Orange production for the State of Florida is expected to increase from
176 million boxes (for the 1993-1994 crop year) to 203 million boxes (for the
1994-1995 crop year).
Strong production levels in Florida and Brazil since the 1991-1992 crop
have kept market prices paid to grower for oranges in the range of $.80 to $1.00
per pound solid;
accordingly the prices received by the Grove are principally determined by the
floor price levels set forth in the Grove's long-term fruit sales contracts.
Results of Operations
The 4,524,800 pound-solid yield for the 1993-1994 season represents a
7% decrease over the 1992-1993 season yield of 4,862,800 pounds solid and a 2%
increase over the 1991- 1992 season yield of 4,423,000 pounds solid. "Pound
solid yield" is the residual sugar content of the fruit, and is the mechanism by
which price and revenue are derived. Average price per pound solid of $1.01
received for the 1993-1994 season fruit increased by $.01 and decreased by $.24
compared to the 1992-1993 and 1991-1992 average season prices of $1.00 and $1.25
per pound solid, respectively.
Seasonal revenues are not comparable to calendar year revenue due to
the nature of the Grove's business insofar as the harvesting of a single
season's crop is not completed within a single calendar year and due to the
timing differences of final settlements. Fruit sales for the year ended December
31, 1994 declined by $169,665 or 3% compared to the same period in 1993 and
fruit sales declined by $550,941 or 10% compared to the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1992. The decrease in the comparisons of calendar year revenues
with season revenues is attributable to pricing differences, size of crop and
the timing of harvesting. Specifically, approximately 20% of the crop which
bloomed in 1992 was picked by the corresponding year-end. The comparable figure
for 1993 and 1994 was 36% and 23%, respectively. The decrease in 1993 revenues
(compared to 1992) was caused by the decrease in the price per pound solid
received for the 1992-1993 crop and the smaller 1993-1994 crop. The decrease in
the 1994 revenues (compared to 1993) is principally due to the timing of
harvesting the 1994-1995 fruit crop.
Harvesting expenses of $1,283,069 for the year ended December 31, 1994
decreased by $125,991 compared to $1,409,060 for the same period in 1993, and
decreased by $245 compared to $1,283,314 for the year ended December 31, 1992.
During 1994, 1993 and 1992 boxes harvested were 657,830, 743,820 and 674,973,
respectively, so that havesting costs were $1.95, $1.89 and $1.90 per box,
respectively.
Cost of fruit sales decreased by 13% or $342,633 compared to 1993 and
increased 1% or $14,286 compared to 1992. Cost of sales consists of (1) a
portion of the inventoriable horticultural care and depreciation costs for the
current calendar year, which is not allocated to inventory (fruit remaining on
trees) for the current calendar year and (2) the portion of such inventoriable
costs which was allocated to inventory for the prior year. The total prediction
expenditures for a calendar year generally fluctuate only for changes in
required horticultural care; accordingly, cost of goods sold is heavily
influenced by the portions of current and prior year crops picked during a given
reporting period. This accounts for the majority of the decrease in the 1994
costs of goods sold.
Interest expense in 1994 decreased by $286,150 as compared to 1993 as a
result of the reduction of the interest rate.
Grove management fees for the years ended 1994, 1993, and 1992 were
$201,837, $213,685 and 344,436 respectively. The fees are made up of a base
management fee and an incentive management fee of a specified percentage of
available cash flow, as defined. The decrease in management fees for 1994
compared to either 1993 or 1992 is the result of the execution of a new
management fee arrangement.
Real estate taxes for 1994 and 1993, and 1992 were $56,071, $133,950
and $148,390 respectively. The 1994 decrease is the result of a change in the
methods and rates of assessing the value of the property. Real estate taxes for
citrus groves are being calculated based upon a state wide averaging formula
that pools values and yields across the state.
Financial Condition
Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 1994 increased by $648,947 or
26% compared to $2,475,681 at December 31, 1993. This increase is a result of
the increase in accrued interest expense, which is determined by contractual
provision.
Accounts receivable at December 31, 1994 of $99,102 decreased by
$198,544 compared to the December 31, 1993 balance of $297,646. Accounts
receivable consist of the fruit harvested as of December 31st for which the
revenue will not be received until after January 1st.
Inventory (fruit remaining on trees) at December 31, 1994, increased
$202,559 as compared to December 31, 1993. Inventory includes a portion of the
inventoriable horticultural care and depreciation costs for the calendar year.
The other portion of such costs is allocated to cost of sales for fruit
harvested in the same year but which were not included in inventory the prior
year. The increase in inventory is principally due to the slower pace of the
harvesting of the 1994-1995 fruit.
The Purchase Money Mortgage specifies an annual payment of the lesser of
$1,000,000 or 100% available cash flow as defined. Any accrued but unpaid
interest for the year is added to the principal balance. Accordingly, the
long-term notes payable increased by $551,221 at December 31, 1994 compared to
December 31, 1993.

We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992
1. ORGANIZATION AND ACQUISITION
Indian River Citrus Investors Limited Partnership (the "Partnership")
was organized in December 1984 under the Uniform Limited Partnership
Act of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to acquire from Caulkins
Citrus Company, Limited approximately 3,150 gross acres of land
located in Martin County, Florida, and to operate a commercial citrus
grove (the "Grove") for the production of oranges. The Partnership
will terminate on December 31, 2010, or sooner, in accordance with the
terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement (the "Agreement"), as
amended November 13, 1985.
In accordance with the Agreement, as amended, net income or net
losses, tax credits and net cash flow, as defined, are generally
allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner
for the period ended December 31, 1985, and 90% to the Limited
Partners and 10% to the General Partner, thereafter. Gains, losses and
proceeds from capital transactions are generally allocated 70% to the
Limited Partners and 30% to the General Partner. These allocations are
subject to certain priority returns to the Limited Partners, as
defined in the Agreement.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Fruit Sales - Fruit sales are recognized when fruit is delivered to
processsors. Sales are comprised of advances received for fruit
delivered the fruit season and the receipt of any final settlements,
90% of which are received by December 31 of the year in which
harvesting is completed.
Inventory - Inventory consists of fruit remaining on the trees at
December 31, 1994 and 1993. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost
or market. Inventory cost includes caretaking costs and inventoriable
depreciation at December 31, 1994 and 1993, which are both allocated
between fruit harvested and fruit remaining on the trees. Market value
was determined by utilizing crop estimates, specified minimum contract
prices, and quoted market prices reported by the Florida Citrus
Processor's Association.
Property - The Partnership provides for deprecation on the grove and
improvements, the building and the trucks using the straight-line
method over estimated useful lives of 30 years, 10 years and 5 years,
respectively. Depreciation expense of $9,473 was recognized on the
building during each of the three years ended December 31, 1994.
Depreciation of the grove and improvements and trucks is included in
inventory and ultimately charged to cost of fruit sales as the fruit
is harvested and sold. Depreciation of 664,189 and $634,568 was
included in inventory for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993,
respectively.
Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged to expense as
incurred while major renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Income Taxes - Since the Partnership is not a taxable entity, the
revenues and expenses flow through to the partners for tax purposes.
The tax returns and the amount of distributable Partnership income or
loss are subject to examination by the federal and state taxing
authorities. If such examinations result in changes to distributable
partnership income or loss, the tax liability of the partners would be
changed accordingly.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements.
Cash Equivalents - The Partnership considers all highly liquid debt
instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be
cash equivalents. The majority of cash and cash equivalents are in
excess of federal deposit insurance coverage at December 31, 1994 and
1993.

3. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Accounts receivable consist of amounts due for fruit harvested and are
carried at net realizable value. Net realizable value was calculated
based on the fruit delivered utilizing spot and contract market prices
published by the Florida Citrus Processor's Association per the terms
of the fruit purchase agreements. As of December 31, 1994 and 1993,
there was no provision for doubtful accounts.

5. DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS
Deferred financing costs consist of costs associated with obtaining
financing and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of
the related debt. As a result of the refinancing further discussed in
Note 7, deferred mortgage costs totalling $198,507 along with
associated accumulated amortization of $143,919 were written off when
the related mortgage was paid down. Costs of $90,932 related to
obtaining the new financing were capitalized in 1993 and will be
amortized over the life of the new mortgage. Deferred financing costs
at December 31, 1994 and 1993 are net of accumulated amortization of
$178,682 and $133,018, respectively. Amortization of deferred
financing costs of $45,665, $96,690 and $33,547 has been recognized in
the accompanying financial statements for the years ended December 31,
1994, 1993 and 1992 respectively.

7. NOTES PAYABLE (Continued)
The discount on the purchase money second mortgage note was calculated
based on the projected principal balance assuming payments based on
the Partnership's projected cash flow, as defined. To the extent
actual payments differ from those projected, the calculation of the
discount will be adjusted in future years.
The discount is being amortized using the effective interest rate
method. The borrower's incremental borrowing rate used to discount the
projected note payments was that assumed for similar debt as of the
date of issuance (i.e. 14.5%).
During April 1993, the Partnership completed a refinancing of a
$8,000,000 first mortgage note.
8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The General Partner receives an annual management fee of $200,000.
Accordingly, partnership management fees of $200,000 were expensed for

year, adjusted by the annual consumer price index, for accounting,
clerical and administrative services provided to the Partnership.

the amount of $136,140, $134,204, and $130,947, respectively, were

9. MANAGEMENT FEES
As of April 1, 1993, the Partnership entered into a property

Fee B is 15% of net cash flow from operations (as defined) less the
sum of $1,800,000, base fees, accounting services and Incentive Fee B.
Prior to April 1, 1993, the Grove was managed under a Grove Management
Agreement with a grove manager in which an affiliate of the General
Partner has a noncontrolling beneficial interest.
The agreement which terminated March 31, 1993 called for an annual
base management fee of $180,000 payable in equal monthly installments
and an incentive management fee calculated for the first quarter of
1993 and 1992 at 7.5% of the Partnership's cash flow from operations,
respectively, as defined. Payment of the calendar year incentive
management fee for each year was payable on April 1 of the following
