Preliminary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.

Certain matters discussed in this report contain forward-looking statements that
are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements.

These   forward-looking  statements  relate  to,  among  other  things,  capital
expenditures,  liquidity, capital resources and competition and may be indicated
by  words  or  phrases  such  as  "anticipate", "estimate", "plans", "projects",
"continuing",   "ongoing",   "expects",   "management  believes",  "the  Company
believes",  "the  Company  intends"  and similar words or phrases. The following
factors  and others discussed in the Company's periodic reports and filings with
the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  are among the principal factors that
could  cause  actual  results  to  differ  materially  from  the forward-looking
statements:  freight  demand  for  petroleum products including recessionary and
terrorist  impacts  on  travel  in the Company's markets; levels of construction
activity  in  the  markets  served  by our mining properties; fuel costs and the
Company's  ability  to recover fuel surcharges; accident severity and frequency;
risk  insurance  markets;  driver  availability  and  cost; the impact of future
regulations  regarding  the  transportation  industry; availability and terms of
financing;  competition  in  our  markets; interest rates, inflation and general
economic  conditions;  demand  for  flexible  warehouse/office facilities in the
Baltimore-Washington-Northern  Virginia  area;  and ability to obtain zoning and
entitlements  necessary  for  property  development. However, this list is not a
complete statement of all potential risks or uncertainties.

These  forward-looking  statements  are  made  as  of  the  date hereof based on
management's  current  expectations,  and  the  Company  does  not  undertake an
obligation  to  update  such statements, whether as a result of new information,
future  events  or  otherwise.  Additional information regarding these and other
risk  factors may be found in the Company's other filings made from time to time
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

      PATRIOT  TRANSPORTATION  HOLDING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES CONDENSED NOTES TO
                   CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                              DECEMBER 31, 2012
                                  (Unaudited)

(1)  BASIS  OF  PRESENTATION. The accompanying consolidated financial statements
include   the   accounts   of  Patriot  Transportation  Holding,  Inc.  and  its
subsidiaries  (the  "Company").  Investment  in  the 50% owned Brooksville Joint
Venture is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. These statements
have  been  prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in  the  United  States  of  America  for  interim financial information and the
instructions  to  Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and footnotes
required  by  accounting  principles  generally accepted in the United States of
America  for  complete  financial  statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments  (primarily  consisting  of  normal  recurring  accruals) considered
necessary  for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods have been
included. Operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2012 are not
necessarily  indicative  of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year
ending  September  30,  2013. The accompanying consolidated financial statements
and  the  information  included  under  the heading "Management's Discussion and
Analysis  of  Financial  Condition  and Results of Operations" should be read in
conjunction  with  the  Company's  consolidated financial statements and related
notes included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2012.

(2)  STOCK SPLIT. On December 1, 2010, the Board of Directors declared a 3-for-1
stock  split  of the Company's common stock in the form of a stock dividend. The
record  date for the split was January 3, 2011 and the new shares were issued on
January  17, 2011. The total authorized shares remained 25 million and par value
of  common  stock  remained unchanged at $.10 per share. All share and per share
information presented has been adjusted to reflect this stock split.

(3)  RECENT  ACCOUNTING  PRONOUNCEMENTS.  In  June 2011, accounting guidance was
issued that requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the
components  of  net  income,  and  the  components of other comprehensive income
either  in  a  single  continuous  statement  of  comprehensive income or in two
separate  but  consecutive  statements.  This  guidance eliminates the option to
present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of
equity.  This standard was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2012. As the new
adoption  relates  to  presentation  only, the adoption of this standard did not
have  a  material  effect  on  the  Company's  financial  position or results of
operations.

(4)  BUSINESS  SEGMENTS.  The  Company  operates  in  three  reportable business
segments.  The  Company's  operations  are substantially in the Southeastern and
Mid-Atlantic  states.  The  transportation  segment  hauls  petroleum  and other
liquids  and  dry  bulk  commodities by tank trailers. The Company's real estate
operations  consist  of two reportable segments. The Mining royalty land segment
owns real estate including construction aggregate royalty sites and parcels held
for investment. The Developed property rentals segment acquires, constructs, and
leases   office/warehouse   buildings   primarily   in   the  Baltimore/Northern
Virginia/Washington  area,  and  holds  real  estate  for  future development or
related to its developments.

The  Company's  transportation  and real estate groups operate independently and
have  minimal  shared overhead except for corporate expenses. Corporate expenses
are  allocated  in  fixed  quarterly  amounts  based upon budgeted and estimated
proportionate  cost by segment. Unallocated corporate expenses primarily include
stock compensation and corporate aircraft expenses.

Operating  results  and  certain other financial data for the Company's business
segments are as follows (in thousands):

                                                ======        ======

On  December 21, 2012, the Company entered into a modified credit agreement with
Wells  Fargo  Bank, N.A. (the "Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement modifies
the  Company's  prior  Amended  and  Restated  Revolving  Credit  Agreement with
Wachovia  Bank,  National  Association  ("Wachovia"),  Bank  of  America,  N.A.,
SunTrust  Bank,  and  Compass  Bank  dated  as  of November 10, 2004. The Credit
Agreement  is  for  a 5 year term with a maximum facility amount of $55 million.
The  Credit Agreement provides a revolving credit facility (the "Revolver") with
a  maximum  facility  amount  of  $40  million,  with a $20 million sublimit for
standby  letters of credit, and a term loan facility of $15 million. Wells Fargo
Bank,  N.A.  is  the sole lender under the modified Credit Agreement. The Credit
Agreement  bears  interest at a rate of 1.00% over the selected LIBOR, which may
change  quarterly  based  on  the  Company's ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to
Consolidated  Total  Capital, as defined. A commitment fee of 0.15% per annum is
payable  quarterly  on  the unused portion of the Revolver portion of the credit
agreement.  The  commitment  fee  may also change quarterly based upon the ratio
described  above.  The Credit Agreement contains certain conditions, affirmative
financial  covenants and negative covenants including limitations on paying cash
dividends.  Letters  of credit in the amount of $9,009,000 were issued under the
Revolver.  As  of December 31, 2012, $45,991,000 was available for borrowing and
$58,719,000  of consolidated retained earnings would be available for payment of
dividends.  The  Company was in compliance with all covenants as of December 31,
2012.

The  fair values of the Company's mortgage notes payable were estimated based on
current  rates  available  to  the  Company  for  debt  of  the  same  remaining
maturities.  At  December  31,  2012, the carrying amount and fair value of such
other long-term debt was $61,093,000 and $65,892,000, respectively.

The aggregate intrinsic value of exercisable in-the-money options was $3,910,000
and  the  aggregate  intrinsic value of all outstanding in-the-money options was
$4,213,000 based on the market closing price of $28.43 on December 31, 2012 less
exercise  prices. Gains of $1,050,000 were realized by option holders during the
three  months  ended  December  31,  2012. The realized tax benefit from options
exercised  for  the  three  months  ended  December 31, 2012 was $407,000. Total
compensation  cost of options granted but not yet vested as of December 31, 2012
was  $956,000, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period
of 3.7 years.

(8)  CONTINGENT  LIABILITIES. Certain of the Company's subsidiaries are involved
in  litigation  on  a  number of matters and are subject to certain claims which
arise  in  the  normal  course  of  business.  The  Company has retained certain
self-insurance  risks  with  respect  to  losses  for  third party liability and
property  damage.  There is a reasonable possibility that the Company's estimate
of  vehicle  and  workers'  compensation liability for the transportation may be
understated  or  overstated  but  the  possible  range can not be estimated. The
liability at any point in time depends upon the relative ages and amounts of the
individual  open claims. In the opinion of management, none of these matters are
expected  to  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  the Company's consolidated
financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

(9) CONCENTRATIONS. The transportation segment primarily serves customers in the
industries  in the Southeastern U.S. Significant economic disruption or downturn
in  this  geographic  region or these industries could have an adverse effect on
our financial statements.

During  the  first three months of fiscal 2013, the transportation segment's ten
largest  customers  accounted  for  approximately  55.8%  of  the transportation
segment's   revenue.   One  of  these  customers  accounted  for  21.0%  of  the
transportation  segment's  revenue. The loss of any one of these customers would
have an adverse effect on the Company's revenues and income. Accounts receivable
from  the  transportation  segment's  ten  largest  customers was $3,464,000 and
$2,988,000 at December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2012 respectively.

The  mining  royalty land segment has one lessee that accounted for 73.9% of the
segment's revenues and $151,000 of accounts receivable at December 31, 2012. The
loss of this customer would have an adverse effect on the segment.

The  Company  places  its  cash  and  cash  equivalents with high credit quality
institutions. At times, such amounts may exceed FDIC limits.

(10)  FAIR  VALUE MEASUREMENTS. Fair value is defined as the price that would be
received  to  sell  an  asset  or  paid  to  transfer  a liability in an orderly
transaction  between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value
hierarchy  prioritizes  the  inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair
value  into three broad levels. Level 1 means the use of quoted prices in active
markets  for  identical  assets  or liabilities. Level 2 means the use of values
that  are  derived  principally  from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level  3  means  the  use of inputs that are unobservable and significant to the
overall fair value measurement.

As  of  December  31,  2012 the Company had no assets or liabilities measured at
fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis.

The fair value of all other financial instruments with the exception of mortgage
notes  (see Note 5) approximates the carrying value due to the short-term nature
of such instruments.

(11)  DISCONTINUED  OPERATIONS.  In  August  2009,  the Company sold its flatbed
trucking  company, SunBelt Transport, Inc. ("SunBelt"). Under the agreement, the
Buyer  purchased  all  of  SunBelt's  tractors  and trailers, leased the SunBelt
terminal facilities in Jacksonville, Florida for 36 months at a rental of $5,000
per  month  and leased the terminal facilities in South Pittsburg, Tennessee for
60  months  at  a  rental  of  $5,000  per  month with an option to purchase the
Tennessee  facilities  at  the  end  of  the  lease for payment of an additional
$100,000.  The  South  Pittsburg  lease  was  recorded  as  a sale under bargain
purchase  accounting.  The purchase price received for the tractors and trailers
and  inventories  was a $1 million cash payment and the delivery of a Promissory
Note  requiring  60  monthly payments of $130,000 each including interest at 7%,
secured  by  the  assets  of the business conveyed. As of September 30, 2011 the
note  receivable  was  fully paid and the option to purchase the South Pittsburg
facility  was  completed.  The  Company retained all pre-closing receivables and
liabilities.

SunBelt has been accounted for as discontinued operations in accordance with ASC
Topic 205-20 Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations. All
periods presented have been restated accordingly.

A summary of discontinued operations is as follows (in thousands):

(12) REAL ESTATE HELD FOR SALE.

In  September  2012  the Company received a non-binding letter of intent to sell
phase  1  of  the  Windlass  Run  Residential  property  located in southeastern
Baltimore County, Maryland. The property is under contract and expected to close
during fiscal 2013 for $7.9 million.

(13)  UNUSUAL  OR  INFREQUENT  ITEMS  IMPACTING  QUARTERLY  RESULTS. Income from
continuing  operations  for  the first quarter of fiscal 2013 included a gain on
the  sale  of the developed property rentals Commonwealth property of $1,116,000
before income taxes. The book value of the property was $723,000.

Income  from continuing operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 included
a gain on termination of sale contract in the amount of $1,039,000 before income
taxes  for  the receipt of non-refundable deposits related to the termination of
an agreement to sell the Company's Windlass Run Residential property.

Accrued  insurance  liabilities  decreased  $1,281,000 during the quarter ending
December  31,  2012 due to payments to our new insurer under a captive agreement
along  with  payment in settlement of three unusually large prior year liability
and  health claims. Payments under the captive agreement are for the fiscal 2013
year-to-date  loss fund as estimated in advance using actuarial methodology. The
captive  agreement provides that we will share in the underwriting results, good
or  bad,  within  a  $250,000 per occurrence layer of loss through retrospective
premium adjustments.


ITEM  2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

Overview  -  Patriot  Transportation  Holding,  Inc.  (the Company) is a holding
company engaged in the transportation and real estate businesses.

The  Company's  transportation  business,  Florida  Rock  &  Tank Lines, Inc. is
engaged   in  hauling  primarily  petroleum  and  other  liquids  and  dry  bulk
commodities in tank trailers.

The  Company's  real  estate  operations consist of two reportable segments. The
Mining  royalty  land  segment owns real estate including construction aggregate
royalty  sites  and  parcels held for investment. The Developed property rentals
segment  acquires,  constructs,  leases,  operates  and manages office/warehouse
buildings  primarily  in  the  Baltimore/Northern  Virginia/Washington area, and
holds  real  estate  for  future  development  or  related  to its developments.
Substantially  all  of  the  real  estate  operations  are  conducted within the
Southeastern and Mid-Atlantic United States.

The  Company's  operations  are  influenced by a number of external and internal
factors.  External factors include levels of economic and industrial activity in
the  United  States and the Southeast, driver availability and cost, regulations
regarding driver qualifications and hours of service, petroleum product usage in
the  Southeast  which is driven in part by tourism and commercial aviation, fuel
costs,  construction  activity,  aggregates  sales by lessees from the Company's
mining  properties,  interest  rates, market conditions and attendant prices for
casualty   insurance,   demand   for   commercial   warehouse   space   in   the
Baltimore-Washington-Northern  Virginia  area,  and ability to obtain zoning and
entitlements  necessary  for  property  development.  Internal  factors  include
revenue  mix,  capacity  utilization,  auto  and  workers' compensation accident
frequencies  and  severity, other operating factors, administrative costs, group
health  claims  experience,  and  construction costs of new projects. There is a
reasonable  possibility  that  the  Company's  estimate  of vehicle and workers'
compensation  liability  for  the  transportation  group  may  be understated or
overstated  but  the  possible  range can not be estimated. The liability at any
point  in time depends upon the relative ages and amounts of the individual open
claims.  Financial  results  of  the  Company for any individual quarter are not
necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year.


COMPARATIVE  RESULTS  OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012
AND 2011

CONSOLIDATED  RESULTS  -  Net  income  for  the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was
$3,123,000  compared  to  $2,124,000  for  the  same  period  last year. Diluted
earnings  per  common  share  for  the  first  quarter  of fiscal 2013 were $.33
compared  to $.23 for the same quarter last year. Transportation segment results
were  higher  due  to  incremental profits on increased revenue, higher gains on
equipment sales and lower than expected health insurance claims partially offset
by  increased  vehicle  repairs costs, increased site maintenance, and increased
sales,  general  and  administrative expenses. The mining royalty land segment's
results  were higher due to new property royalties partially offset by increased
corporate  expense  allocation. The Developed property rentals segment's results
were higher due to higher occupancy and lower professional fees partially offset
by higher health insurance claims allocation.

Transportation  segment  revenues were $26,639,000 in the first quarter of 2013,
an  increase of $1,798,000 over the same quarter last year. Revenue miles in the
current quarter were up 3.4% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012 due to
business growth. Revenue per mile increased 3.8% over the same quarter last year
due  to  rate  increases  and  higher  fuel  surcharges.  Fuel surcharge revenue
increased  $123,000  due  to  higher  fuel  costs partially offset by changes to
certain  customer  rates  to  incorporate  fuel  surcharges into base rates. The
average  price paid per gallon of diesel fuel increased by $.17 or 4.7% over the
same  quarter in fiscal 2012. There is a time lag between changes in fuel prices
and  surcharges and often fuel costs change more rapidly than the market indexes
used  to  determine fuel surcharges. Excluding fuel surcharges, revenue per mile
increased 4.6% over the same quarter last year.

The  Transportation  segment's  cost  of operations was $24,842,000 in the first
quarter  of 2013, an increase of $1,444,000 over the same quarter last year. The
Transportation  segment's  cost  of operations in the first quarter of 2013 as a
percentage  of  revenue  was  93%  compared to 94% in the first quarter of 2012.
Compensation  and  benefits  increased  $652,000  or  7.4%  compared to the same
quarter  last  year  primarily  due to a driver pay increase and the increase in
miles  driven. Fuel cost increased by $376,000 due to higher cost per gallon and
the  increase  in miles driven. Insurance and losses decreased $107,000 compared
to  the  same  quarter  last  year  primarily  due to lower than expected health
insurance  claims. Depreciation expense increased $132,000 due to more trucks in
service.  Other  expense  increased $238,000 due to higher vehicle repair costs,
increased  site  maintenance,  increased tire prices and increased miles driven.
Sales,  general and administrative costs increased $300,000 or 14.9% compared to
the  same quarter last year due to severance costs, increased bonus compensation
and  professional fees. Allocated corporate expenses increased $76,000. Gains on
equipment  sales  increased  $223,000  due  to  increased  sales of tractors and
trailers and higher sales value on used equipment.

Mining  royalty  land segment revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 were
$1,331,000, an increase of $354,000 or

36.2%  over  the same quarter last year due to new property royalties and higher
tons mined.

The  mining  royalty land segment's cost of operations was $308,000 in the first
quarter  of  2013,  an  increase  of $15,000 over the same quarter last year due
primarily to the $12,000 increase in allocated corporate expenses.

Developed property rentals segment revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2013
were  $5,087,000,  an  increase  of  $546,000  or 12.0% due to higher occupancy.
Occupancy  at  December  31, 2012 was 86.2% as compared to 82.8% at December 31,

Developed  property  rentals  segment's cost of operations was $3,236,000 in the
first quarter of 2013, an increase of $74,000 or 2.3% over the same quarter last
year.  Property  operating  expenses decreased $99,000 due to lower professional
fees.  Depreciation  and  amortization increased $89,000 primarily due to tenant
improvements.   Management   Company   indirect   expenses  (excluding  internal
allocations  for  lease  related  property  management  and  construction  fees)
increased  $65,000  due  to  higher health insurance claims. Allocated corporate

$3,214,000  in the same period last year. Operating profit in the transportation
segment  increased  $354,000  or  24.5%  due to incremental profits on increased
revenue,  higher  gains  on  equipment  sales  and  lower  than  expected health
insurance  claims partially offset by increased vehicle repairs costs, increased
site  maintenance,  and  increased  sales,  general and administrative expenses.
Operating  profit in the mining royalty land segment increased $339,000 or 49.6%
due  to  new  property royalties partially offset by increased corporate expense
allocation. Operating profit in the Developed property rentals segment increased
$472,000  or 34.2% due to higher occupancy and lower professional fees partially
offset  by  higher  health  insurance  claims allocation. Consolidated operating
profit includes corporate expenses not allocated to any segment in the amount of
$263,000  in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, a decrease of $29,000 compared to
the same period last year.

GAIN ON TERMINATION OF SALE CONTRACT - First quarter fiscal 2012 includes a gain
of  $1,039,000  on  the  receipt  of  non-refundable  deposits  related  to  the
termination  of  an  agreement  to  sell  the Company's Windlass Run Residential
property.

GAIN  ON  INVESTMENT  LAND  SOLD  -  Gain  on investment land sold for the first
quarter  of  fiscal  2013  included a gain on the sale of the developed property
rentals  Commonwealth property of $1,116,000 before income taxes. The book value
of the property was $723,000.

Interest  income  and  other  (expense)  income, net - Interest income and other
(expense)  income,  net  increased  $23,000  over  the  same  quarter  last year
primarily  due to funds received in consideration for the conveyance of easement
property.

Interest  expense  -  Interest  expense decreased $376,000 over the same quarter
last  year  due  to higher capitalized interest and declining mortgage principal
balance.  The  amount  of  interest  capitalized  on  real estate projects under
development  was  $297,000 higher than the same quarter in fiscal 2012 primarily
due to resumed development of Patriot Business Park in April 2012.

INCOME  TAXES - Income tax expense increased $671,000 over the same quarter last
year  due  to  higher  earnings  from continuing operations compared to the same
quarter last year.

INCOME  FROM  CONTINUING  OPERATIONS  -  Income  from  continuing operations was
$3,123,000  or  $.33  per  diluted share in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, an
increase  of 47.0% compared to $2,125,000 or $.23 per diluted share for the same
period  last  year.  The  $998,000  increase was primarily due to the $1,669,000
increase in operating profits offset by higher income taxes.

DISCONTINUED  OPERATIONS  -  The after tax loss from discontinued operations for
the  first  quarter  of  fiscal  2012  was $1,000. Diluted earnings per share on
discontinued operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012 was
$.00.

NET  INCOME  -  Net  income  for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was $3,123,000
compared  to  $2,124,000  for  the  same  period last year. Diluted earnings per
common share for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 were $.33 compared to $.23 for
the  same  quarter  last year. Transportation segment results were higher due to
incremental  profits  on  increased revenue, higher gains on equipment sales and
lower  than  expected  health  insurance  claims  partially  offset by increased
vehicle  repairs costs, increased site maintenance, and increased sales, general
and  administrative  expenses.  The  mining  royalty land segment's results were
higher  due  to  new  property royalties partially offset by increased corporate
expense allocation. The Developed property rentals segment's results were higher
due  to  higher occupancy and lower professional fees partially offset by higher
health insurance claims allocation.

LIQUIDITY  AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. For the first three months of fiscal 2013, the
Company  used  cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations of
$3,848,000,  proceeds  from  the  sale  of  plant,  property  and  equipment  of
$2,202,000,  proceeds  from  the exercise of employee stock options of $407,000,
excess  tax  benefits  from  the exercise of stock options of $763,000, and cash
balances   to   purchase  $6,787,000  in  transportation  equipment,  to  expend
$4,164,000  in  real  estate  development,  to invest $32,000 in the Brooksville
Joint  Venture,  to  make $1,277,000 scheduled payments on long-term debt and to
repurchase Company stock for $233,000. Cash decreased $5,273,000.

Cash  flows  from operating activities for the first three months of fiscal 2013
were $1,522,000 lower than the same period last year primarily due to a decrease
in accrued insurance liabilities. Accrued insurance liabilities decreased due to
payments  to  our  new  insurer  under a captive agreement along with payment in
settlement  of  three  unusually  large  prior year liability and health claims.
Payments  under  the captive agreement are for the fiscal 2013 year-to-date loss
fund  as estimated in advance using actuarial methodology. The captive agreement
provides  that  we will share in the underwriting results, good or bad, within a
$250,000 per occurrence layer of loss through retrospective premium adjustments.

Cash  flows  used  in  investing activities for the first three months of fiscal
2013  were $2,402,000 higher reflecting the increased purchase of transportation
equipment  for  growth  and  replacement  and  real estate development partially
offset by a pretax gain of $1,116,000 on the sale of the Commonwealth property.

Cash  flows  used  in  financing activities for the first three months of fiscal
2013  were  $627,000  lower  than  the same period last year due to higher stock
option exercises.

On  December 21, 2012, the Company entered into a modified credit agreement with
Wells  Fargo  Bank, N.A. (the "Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement modifies
the  Company's  prior  Amended  and  Restated  Revolving  Credit  Agreement with
Wachovia  Bank,  National  Association  ("Wachovia"),  Bank  of  America,  N.A.,
SunTrust  Bank,  and  Compass  Bank  dated  as  of November 10, 2004. The Credit
Agreement  is  for  a 5 year term with a maximum facility amount of $55 million.
The  Credit Agreement provides a revolving credit facility (the "Revolver") with
a  maximum  facility  amount  of  $40  million,  with a $20 million sublimit for
standby  letters  of credit, and a term loan facility of $15 million. The Credit
Agreement  contains  certain  conditions,  affirmative  financial  covenants and
negative  covenants  including  limitations on paying cash dividends. Letters of
credit  in  the  amount  of  $9,009,000  were  issued  under the Revolver. As of
December  31,  2012,  $45,991,000 was available for borrowing and $58,719,000 of
consolidated  retained earnings would be available for payment of dividends. The
Company was in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 2012.

The  Company  had  $9,009,000 of irrevocable letters of credit outstanding as of
December 31, 2012. Most of the letters of credit are irrevocable for a period of
one  year  and  are automatically extended for additional one-year periods until
notice  of  non-renewal  is  received from the issuing bank not less than thirty
days  before the expiration date. These were issued for insurance retentions and
to  guarantee  certain  obligations  to  state  agencies  related to real estate
development.  The  Company  issued  replacement  letters  of  credit through the
Revolver to reduce fees.

The  Board  of  Directors  has authorized Management to repurchase shares of the
Company's  common  stock  from  time  to time as opportunities arise. During the
first  three  months  of  fiscal  2013  the Company repurchased 8,700 shares for
$233,000.  As  of  December  31,  2012,  $3,682,000  was  authorized  for future
repurchases  of  common  stock.  The  Company  does  not  currently pay any cash
dividends on common stock.

The  Company  has  committed  to  make additional capital contributions of up to
$130,000  to  Brooksville  Quarry,  LLC  in connection with a joint venture with
Vulcan Materials Company.

While the Company is affected by environmental regulations, such regulations are
not  expected  to  have  a major effect on the Company's capital expenditures or
operating results.

SUMMARY AND OUTLOOK. Transportation segment miles for this year were 3.4% higher
than last year. The Company continues to succeed in adding drivers and customers
and anticipates increasing segment miles during fiscal 2013.

Developed  property  rentals  occupancy  has  increased from 82.8% to 86.2% over
December  31,  2011  as  the market for new tenants has improved and traffic for
vacant  space  has  increased.  Occupancy at December 31, 2012 and 2011 included
25,660  square  feet  or  .9%  and  104,226 square feet or 3.4% respectively for
temporary  storage under a less than full market lease rate. The Company resumed
development  of  Patriot Business Park effective April 1, 2012 due to two recent
developments.  On  February  15,  2012,  the Company signed an agreement to sell
15.18  acres  of land at the site for a purchase price of $4,774,577 which would
result  in  a  profit  on the sale if completed. The Company also entered into a
build  to  suit  lease  signed April 2, 2012, for a 117,600 square foot building
which is substantially completed and occupancy is anticipated during the quarter
ending March 31, 2013.

Windlass  Run  Residential  (previously  Bird  River),  located  in southeastern
Baltimore County, Maryland, is a 121 acre tract of land adjacent to our Windlass
Run  Business Park. In September 2012, the Company received a non-binding letter
of  intent  to  sell the property for $18.8 million in two phases. The letter of
intent  to sell the property has been converted into 2 executed contracts with a
due  diligence  period  expiring on February 21, 2013. The contracts contemplate
the  sale of the phase 1 of the property in the quarter ending June 30, 2013 for
$7.9 million and the balance for $10.9 million approximately 18 months later.

On  March 30, 2012 the Company entered into a Contribution Agreement with MRP SE
Waterfront  Residential,  LLC.  ("MRP")  to  form a joint venture to develop the
first phase only of the four phase master development known as RiverFront on the
Anacostia  in  Washington,  D.C. The purpose of the Joint Venture is to develop,
own,  lease and ultimately sell an approximately 300,000 square foot residential
apartment  building  (including approximately 18,000 square feet of retail) on a
portion  of the roughly 5.82 acre site. The Contribution Agreement provides that
the  formation  of  the  Joint  Venture  will be subject to customary conditions
precedent, including approval of a planned unit development, zoning modification
and  extension  of  the existing PUD to provide for approximately 300,000 square
feet  of  residential development (including approximately 18,000 square feet of
retail)  on  the  Property  in  lieu of 250,000 square feet of commercial office
space  (including  some  retail) as currently approved for phase 1 of the master
development.  If  these  conditions are satisfied, the parties will enter into a
formal  joint  venture  agreement  wherein  the Company will contribute the land
comprising  phase  I  to  the  joint venture in return for approximately a fifty
percent (50%) interest in the venture. MRP will contribute capital of $4,500,000
to  the  joint  venture. MRP will raise any additional equity capital (currently
estimated  to  be $11,000,000, subject to revision based on various factors) and
obtain  a  nonrecourse  loan  for  the balance of the estimated construction and
lease   up  costs.  At  this  point  the  Company  anticipates  commencement  of
construction  of Phase I in early 2014 with lease up scheduled between late 2015
and all of 2016. On January 14, 2013, the Company received "Final Action" on the
modification  and  extension to the previously approved planned unit development
from  the  District  of  Columbia  Zoning  Commission. The appeal period on this
action will expire in early March 2013.


ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS

The  Company  is  exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates. For its
cash  and  cash  equivalents,  a  change in interest rates affects the amount of
interest  income  that  can  be  earned.  For its debt instruments with variable
interest  rates, changes in interest rates affect the amount of interest expense
incurred.  The  Company  prepared  a  sensitivity  analysis of its cash and cash
equivalents to determine the impact of hypothetical changes in interest rates on
the  Company's  results of operations and cash flows. The interest-rate analysis
assumed  a  50 basis point adverse change in interest rates on all cash and cash
equivalents. However, the interest-rate analysis did not consider the effects of
the  reduced level of economic activity that could exist in such an environment.
Based  on  this analysis, management has concluded that a 50 basis point adverse
move  in interest rates on the Company's cash and cash equivalents would have an
immaterial impact on the Company's results of operations and cash flows.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The  Company  maintains  disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to
ensure  that information required to be disclosed in the Company's reports under
the  Securities  Exchange  Act  of  1934,  as  amended  (the "Exchange Act"), is
recorded,  processed,  summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in  the  SEC's  rules  and  forms,  and that such information is accumulated and
communicated  to  management,  including  the  Company's Chief Executive Officer
("CEO"),  Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), and Chief Accounting Officer ("CAO"),
as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The  Company  also  maintains  a  system  of  internal  accounting controls over
financial  reporting  that  are  designed to provide reasonable assurance to the
Company's  management  and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair
presentation of published financial statements.

All  control  systems,  no  matter how well designed, have inherent limitations.
Therefore,  even  those  systems  determined  to  be  effective can provide only
reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

As  of  December  31,  2012,  the  Company,  under  the supervision and with the
participation  of  the  Company's  management,  including  the CEO, CFO and CAO,
carried  out  an  evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of
the  Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the
Company's  CEO, CFO and CAO concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures  are  effective  in  alerting  them  in  a  timely manner to material
information required to be included in periodic SEC filings.

There  have  been  no  changes in the Company's internal controls over financial
reporting  during  the  first three months that have materially affected, or are
reasonably  likely  to  materially  affect,  the Company's internal control over
financial reporting.
