FRP HOLDINGS, INC. (NASDAQ: FRPH) ANNOUNCES RESULTS FOR THE SECOND QUARTER
OF FISCAL 2016.

Jacksonville, Florida; May 4, 2016 -

Fiscal 2016 Second Quarter Consolidated Results of Continuing Operations.

Income from continuing operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 was
$1,820,000 or $.18 per share versus $845,000 or $.09 per share in the second
quarter last year.  Total revenues were up $667,000, or 7.5%, versus the same
quarter last year with total cost of operations down $683,000, or 10.1%.
Consolidated total operating profit increased by $1,350,000, or 62.5%, to
$3,509,000 this quarter.

The Company enjoyed another successful quarter in both of our income
producing segments.  Compared to last year's 2nd quarter, our Mining Royalty
Lands segment grew operating profit (excluding the benefit from the
Reallocation (fn1) by 68.9% while our Asset Management segment grew operating
profit by 7.9%.

Second Quarter Segment Operating Results.

Asset Management Segment:
------------------------
Total revenues in this segment were $7,574,000, up $244,000 or 3.3%, over the
same quarter last year. Net Operating Income in this segment for the 2nd
quarter was $5,442,000, compared to $5,095,000 in the 2nd quarter last year,
an increase of 6.8%.  The increase was mainly due to the completion of the
third build-to-suit at Patriot Business Park in the middle of the 2nd quarter
last year and the acquisition of the Port Capital building in Baltimore in
October of 2015.  We ended this quarter with total occupied square feet of
3,348,112 versus 3,198,200 at the end of the 2nd quarter last year, an
increase of 4.7% or 149,912 square feet.

----------
(fn1) During fiscal 2015, management analyzed the amount of corporate and
      management company time likely to be spent on our segments going forward
      and, as a result, the allocation of corporate expense to the Mining
      Royalty Lands segment was reduced and reallocated to our other two
      segments (the "Reallocation").



During the quarter, the Company identified an opportunistic purchase
opportunity and entered into a purchase agreement to buy the Gilroy Road
building located in Hunt Valley, MD, for a purchase price of $8,850,000.
The Gilroy Road building is a 113,386 sq.ft. warehouse that is currently
100% occupied.  The contract is in the feasibility study phase and is subject
to multiple contingencies before the parties are obligated to close.

Mining Royalty Lands Segment:
----------------------------
Total revenues in this segment were $1,778,000, an increase of 33.2%, versus
$1,335,000 in the same quarter last year due to an increase in tons shipped.
Total operating profit in this segment was $1,574,000, an increase of $909,000
(inclusive of a $451,000 benefit from the Reallocation), versus $665,000 in
the second quarter of last year.

Land Development and Construction Segment:
-----------------------------------------
The Land Development and Construction segment is responsible for (i) seeking
out and identifying opportunistic purchases of income producing warehouse/
office buildings, and (ii) developing our non-income producing properties into
income production.  Construction of the 79,550 square foot spec warehouse at
Hollander Business park will be completed during the third quarter of this
fiscal year and, upon receipt of a Certificate of Occupancy, will be
transferred to the Asset Management segment for lease-up.

During the 2nd quarter, we entered into an agreement with a substantial
Baltimore development company (St. John Properties, Inc.) to jointly develop
the remaining lands of our Windlass Run Business Park.   The 50/50 partnership
initially calls for FRP to combine its 25 acres (valued at $7,500,000) with
St. John Properties' adjacent 10 acres fronting on a major state highway
(valued at $3,239,536) resulting in an initial cash distribution of $2,130,232
to FRP on or about May, 2016.  Thereafter, the venture will jointly develop
the combined properties into a multi-building business park to consist of
approximately 329,000 square feet of single story office space.

Fiscal 2016 First Six Months Consolidated Results of Continuing Operations.

Post Spin-off we are reporting any net gain/(loss) from the transportation
business as "discontinued operations" and we currently have no other
discontinued operations being reported.  For the six months ended March 31,
2016 we received no benefit to after tax net income versus a $2,179,000
benefit in the same period last year.  Additionally, GAAP accounting rules do
not allow corporate overhead expense to be allocated to a discontinued
operation of the Company which resulted in the first six months of fiscal 2015
including $1,081,000 of corporate overhead expense to the Company that was
associated with the discontinued transportation operations.



Income from continuing operations for the first six months of fiscal 2016 was
$9,293,000 or $.94 per share versus $1,976,000 or $.20 per share in the first
six months last year.  The first six months of fiscal 2016 included $.57 per
share from a gain on land sale of $6,286,000 and income of $3,000,000 from the
settlement of environmental claims.  The first six months of 2015 was
negatively impacted by $.07 per share as a result of $1,081,000 of corporate
costs not allocable to discontinued operations.

Total revenues were up $1,188,000, or 6.9%, versus the same period last year.

Consolidated adjusted total operating profit in the first six months of the
year (excluding the positive impacts of the environmental settlement and the
corporate expense not allocable to discontinued operations in the prior year)
was up 27.3% over the same period last year (see table "Non-GAAP Financial
Measures).

First Six Months Segment Operating Results.

Asset Management Segment:
------------------------
Total revenues in this segment were $14,489,000, up $402,000 or 2.9%, over the
same period last year. Net operating income in this segment for the period was
$10,832,000, compared to $10,453,000 in the 2nd quarter last year, an increase
of 3.6%.  The increase was due mainly to completion of the third build-to-suit
in the middle of the 2nd quarter  last year and the acquisition of the Port
Capital building in October of 2015.

Mining Royalty Lands Segment:
----------------------------
Total revenues in this segment were $3,437,000, an increase of 28.3%, versus
$2,679,000 in the same period last year due to an increase in tons shipped.
Total operating profit in this segment was $3,044,000, an increase of
$1,497,000 (inclusive of a $714,000 benefit from the Reallocation), versus
$1,547,000 in the first six months of last year.

Land Development and Construction Segment:
-----------------------------------------

In addition to the items occurring in the 2nd quarter outlined above, during
the first six months of fiscal 2016 this segment successfully closed on the
sale of Phase II of the Windlass Run residential land (a non-income producing
property) for $11,288,000.  Using $9,900,000 of the proceeds from that sale
in a Section 1031 exchange, the Asset Management segment acquired the Port
Capital building, a 91,218 square foot, 100% occupied warehouse with first
full year projected rental revenue of $594,000.  Management successfully
completed negotiations and entered into a $3,000,000 settlement of
environmental claims against our former tenant at the Riverfront on the
Anacostia property and continues to pursue settlement negotiations with other
potentially responsible parties.



Summary and Outlook.  We are focused on building shareholder value through our
real estate holdings - mainly by growing our portfolio through the
opportunistic purchase of income producing warehouse/office buildings, and the
conversion of our non-income producing assets into income production through a
two pronged approach  that  includes (i) selling land that is not conducive to
warehouse/office development (e.g. Windlass Run Residential Phase 2 land) and
using the proceeds to acquire existing income producing warehouse/office
buildings typically in a Section 1031 exchange (e.g. the Port Capital building
purchase) and (ii) the construction of new warehouse/office buildings on
existing pad sites in our developed business parks (e.g. new spec building at
Hollander Business Park).  Over the past five years, we have converted 172
acres of non-income producing land into 766,216 square feet of income
producing properties with estimated FY 2016 rental revenues of $5,133,000.

We saw another quarter of real improvement in mining royalties due mainly to
increased volumes at most of our locations.

During the quarter, we began the process of designing and permitting for the
construction of a 104,000 sq.ft. spec building at our Patriot Business Park.
Subject to further market analysis and Board approval, we anticipate
construction commencing in the 3rd quarter of this year with completion in
the 4th quarter of next fiscal year.  We anticipate commencing the capital
improvement work on the bulkhead at Square 664E in southeast Washington, D.C.
during the 3rd quarter of this fiscal year with an estimated total cost to
complete of $4,200,000 of which $397,000 has already been incurred to date.
In the event the Company commits to develop Phase II of the Riverfront on the
Anacostia project during this fiscal year we will likely book a liability for
the estimated incremental cost of remediation similar to what we booked with
regards to Phase I.

The construction of Dock 79 at Riverfront on the Anacostia is on budget and
nearing completion on schedule.  As a result, through our property management
agent (Kettler Management, Inc.)  we commenced leasing activities on the
residential and retail units.  The initial activity has been positive
and we anticipate our first residential occupancies to begin in August of
this year.  For more detail on the units and rental rates at Dock 79 please

Non-GAAP Financial Measures.

To supplement the financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, FRP
presents certain non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation
G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The non-GAAP
financial measures included in this press release are adjusted operating
profit and net operating income (NOI). FRP uses these non-GAAP financial
measures to analyze its continuing operations and to monitor, assess, and
identify meaningful trends in its operating and financial performance. These
measures are not, and should not be viewed as, substitutes for GAAP financial
measures.

Post Spin-off we are reporting any net gain/(loss) from the transportation
business as "discontinued operations" and we currently have no other
discontinued operations being reported.  GAAP accounting rules do not allow
corporate overhead expenses to be allocated to a discontinued operation of
the Company; thus, those corporate expenses attributable to the
transportation business prior to the spin-off are charged to the Company as
part of continuing operations.

Adjusted Operating Profit

Adjusted operating profit excludes the impact of the corporate expense not
allocated to discontinued operations and the environmental remediation
recovery. Adjusted operating profit is presented to provide additional
perspective on underlying trends in FRP's core operating results. A
reconciliation between operating profit and adjusted operating profit is as
follows:
