Notes to consolidated financial statements

  1. Accounting Policies.

ORGANIZATION - FRP Holdings, Inc. (the “Company” or "FRP") was incorporated on April 22, 2014 in connection with a corporate reorganization that preceded the Spin-off of Patriot Transportation Holding, Inc. The Company’s predecessor issuer was formed on July 20, 1988. FRP is a holding company engaged in various real estate businesses. The segments of the Company include: (i) leasing and management of industrial and commercial properties (the “Industrial and Commercial Segment”), (ii) leasing and management of mining royalty land owned by the Company (the “Mining Royalty Lands Segment”), (iii) real property acquisition, entitlement, development and construction primarily for apartment, retail, industrial, and office (the “Development Segment”), (iv) management of mixed-use residential/retail properties owned through our joint ventures (the “Multifamily Segment”). Our investments in real estate partnerships not wholly owned by FRP which are conducted through limited liability corporations (“LLC”) are also referred to as joint ventures.

COMMON STOCK SPLIT - On April 12, 2024, the Company effected a 2-for-1 forward split of its common stock in the nature of a dividend. All share and per share information, including share-based compensation, throughout this report have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split. The shares of common stock retain a par value of $.10 per share. Accordingly, an amount equal to the par value of the increased shares resulting from the stock split was reclassified from capital in excess of par value to common stock.

CONSOLIDATION - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FRP Holdings, Inc. inclusive of our wholly owned operating real estate subsidiaries, FRP Development Corp., Florida Rock Properties, Inc., and consolidated partnerships Riverfront Investment Partners I, LLC, Riverfront Investment Partners II, LLC, Lakeland Logistics Park Venture, LLC, and Davie Logistics Park Venture, LLC. Investments in real estate joint ventures not controlled by the Company are accounted for under the equity or cost method of accounting as appropriate (See Note 2). All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

The Company consolidates properties that are wholly-owned and joint ventures where it owns less than 100% but has control over the activities most important to the overall success of the partnership. Control is determined using an evaluation based on accounting standards related to the consolidation of Variable Interest Entities ("VIEs") and voting interest entities. For joint ventures that are determined to be a VIE, the Company consolidates the entity where it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. Determination of the primary beneficiary is based on whether an entity has (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance, and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The ownership of our partners in the joint ventures that the Company consolidates is accounted for as noncontrolling interests on the consolidated financial statements.

Our investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting are detailed in Note 2. Our ownership of Riverfront Investment Partners I, LLC, Riverfront Investment Partners II, LLC, Lakeland Logistics Park Venture, LLC, and Davie Logistics Park Venture, LLC includes a non-controlling interest representing the ownership of our partners.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS - The Company considers all Treasury bills available for sale regardless of maturity and other highly liquid debt instruments with maturities of three months or less at time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Bank overdrafts consist of outstanding checks not yet presented to a bank for settlement, net of cash held in accounts with right of offset.

INVESTMENTS AVAILABLE FOR SALE - The Company determines the appropriate classification of its investments in debt securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such determinations at each balance sheet date. Debt securities are classified as held to maturity when the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. Marketable securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses recognized in earnings. Debt securities not classified as held to maturity or as trading, are classified as available-for-sale, and are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, included in the determination of comprehensive income and reported in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The fair value of securities is determined using quoted market prices. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, no investments were held for trading purposes or classified as held to maturity.

REVENUE AND EXPENSE RECOGNITION - Lease revenues are generally recognized when earned under the leases and are considered collectable. Rental income from leases with scheduled increases or other incentives during their term is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Reimbursements of expenses, when provided in the lease, are recognized in the period that the expenses are incurred.

Mining royalty revenues are recognized when the performance obligation is satisfied which is when the sand or stone mined and processed by the lessee is sold and removed from the property. Our typical mining lease requires the tenant to pay the Company a monthly royalty in arrears based on the number of tons of mined materials sold from our mining property multiplied by a percentage of the average annual sales price per ton sold from the prior fiscal year. In certain locations, typically where the sand and stone deposits on the property have been depleted but the tenant still has a need for the leased land, we collect a minimum annual rental amount but this is not the predominant component of mining royalties revenues. As such both mining royalty revenues and minimum annual rents are recognized as revenues from contracts with customers. Mining royalty revenues accounts receivable were $647,000, $465,000 and $618,000 at December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 respectively and there were no receivables from minimum rents. Mining royalties deferred revenue liabilities were $1,908,000, $325,000 and $47,000 at December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 respectively.

Sales of real estate are recognized when the collection of the sales price is reasonably assured and when the Company has fulfilled substantially all of its obligations, which are typically as of the closing date.

Accounts receivable are recorded net of discounts and provisions for estimated allowances. We estimate allowances on an ongoing basis by considering historical and current trends. We record estimated bad debts expense as a reduction of lease revenue. We estimate the net collectibility of our accounts receivable and establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon this assessment. Specifically, we analyze the aging of accounts receivable balances, historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT - Property and equipment is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and depletion. Provision for depreciation of property, plant and equipment is computed using the straight-line method based on the following estimated useful lives:

Years
Building and improvements3 - 39

Depletion expense is computed on the basis of units of production in relation to estimated sand and stone deposits.

Remaining sand and stone deposit estimates are periodically adjusted based upon surveys.

The Company recorded depreciation and depletion expenses for fiscal year 2024, 2023 and 2022, of $10,004,000, $10,668,000 and $10,618,000, respectively.

All direct and indirect costs, including interest and real estate taxes, associated with the development, construction, leasing or expansion of real estate investments are capitalized as a cost of the property. Included in indirect costs is an allocation of internal costs associated with development of real estate investments. The cost of routine repairs and maintenance to property and equipment is expensed as incurred.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS – The Company reviews its long-lived assets, which include property and equipment and purchased intangible assets subject to amortization for potential impairment annually or whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. This review consists of comparing cap rates on recent cash flows and market value estimates to the carrying values of each asset group. If this review indicates the carrying value might exceed fair value then an estimate of future cash flows for the remaining useful life of each property is prepared considering anticipated vacancy, lease rates, and any future capital expenditures.

DEVELOPED PROPERTY RENTALS PURCHASE ACCOUNTING – Acquisitions of rental property, including any associated intangible assets, are measured at fair value at the date of acquisition. Any liabilities assumed or incurred are recorded at their fair value at the time of acquisition. The fair value of the acquired property is allocated between land and building (on an as-if vacant basis) based on management’s estimate of the fair value of those components for each type of property and to tenant improvements based on the depreciated replacement cost of the tenant improvements, which approximates their fair value. The fair value of the in-place leases is recorded as follows:

the fair value of leases in-place on the date of acquisition is based on absorption costs for the estimated lease-up period in which vacancy and foregone revenue are avoided due to the presence of the acquired leases;

the fair value of above and below-market in-place leases based on the present value (using a discount rate that reflects the risks associated with the acquired leases) of the difference between contractual rent amounts to be paid under the assumed lease and the estimated market lease rates for the corresponding spaces over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the related leases; and

the fair value of intangible tenant or customer relationships.

The Company’s determination of these fair values requires it to estimate market rents for each of the leases and make certain other assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the rental revenue, and depreciation and amortization expense recognized for these leases and associated intangible assets and liabilities.

INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES - The Company uses the equity method to account for its investments in Brooksville, BC FRP Realty, Estero, FRP/MRP Buzzard Point Sponsor, and Greenville/Woodfield, in which it has a voting interest of 50% or less and has significant influence but does not have control. The Company uses the equity method to account for its investment in the Bryant Street Partnerships and The Verge at 1800 Half Street, in which it has a voting interest in excess of 50% because all major decisions are shared equally. Under the equity method, the investment is originally recorded at cost and adjusted to recognize the Company’s share of net earnings or losses of the investee, limited to the extent of the Company’s investment in and advances to the investee and financial guarantees on behalf of the investee that create additional basis. The Company regularly monitors and evaluates the realizable value of its investments. When assessing an investment for an other-than-temporary decline in value, the Company considers such factors as, the performance of the asset in relation to its own operating targets and its business plan, the investee’s revenue and cost trends, as well as liquidity and cash position, and the outlook for the overall industry in which the investee operates. From time to time, the Company may consider third party evaluations or valuation reports. If events and circumstances indicate that a decline in the value of these assets has occurred and is other-than-temporary, the Company records a charge to investment income (expense).

INCOME TAXES - Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on differences between financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using presently enacted tax rates. Deferred income taxes result from temporary differences between pre-tax income reported in the financial statements and taxable income. The Company recognizes liabilities for uncertain tax positions based on a two-step process. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit. The second step is to estimate and measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. It is inherently difficult and subjective to estimate such amounts, as the amounts rely upon the determination of the probability of various possible outcomes. The Company reevaluates these uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis. This evaluation is based on factors including, but not limited to, changes in facts or circumstances, changes in tax law and expiration of statutes of limitations, effectively settled issues under audit, and audit activity. Such a change in recognition or measurement would result in the recognition of a tax benefit or an additional charge to the tax provision. It is the Company's policy to recognize as additional income tax expense the items of interest paid and penalties directly related to income taxes.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION – The Company accounts for compensation related to share based plans by recognizing the grant date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees in its income statement over the requisite employee service period using the straight-line attribution model. In addition, compensation expense must be recognized for the change in fair value of any awards modified, repurchased or cancelled after the grant date. The fair value of each grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The assumptions used in the model and current year impact are discussed in Note 7.

DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN - The Company has a deferred compensation plan, the Management Security Plan (MSP) for our former President. The accruals for future benefits are based upon actuarial assumptions.

EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE - Basic earnings per common share are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods. Diluted earnings per common share are based on the weighted average number of common shares and potential dilution of securities that could share in earnings. The differences between basic and diluted shares used for the calculation are the effect of employee and director stock options and restricted stock.

USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Certain accounting policies and estimates are of more significance in the financial statement preparation process than others. The most critical accounting policies and estimates include the economic useful lives of our estimated remaining sand and stone deposits, property and equipment, provisions for uncollectible accounts receivable and collectibility of unrealized rents, accounting for real estate investments, estimates of exposures related to our insurance claims plans and environmental liabilities, and estimates for taxes. To the extent that actual, final outcomes are different than these estimates, or that additional facts and circumstances result in a revision to these estimates, earnings during that accounting period will be affected.

ENVIRONMENTAL - Environmental expenditures that benefit future periods are capitalized. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations, and which do not contribute to current or future revenue generation, are expensed. Liabilities are recorded for the estimated amount of expected environmental assessments and/or remedial efforts. Estimation of such liabilities includes an assessment of engineering estimates, continually evolving governmental laws and standards, and potential involvement of other potentially responsible parties.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME – Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) refers to expenses, gains, and losses that are not included in net income, but rather are recorded directly in shareholders’ equity.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS – In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023 - 07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures," which requires disclosure of the significant segment expense categories that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM) and disclosure of the individual or committee identified as the CODM beginning with our 10-K for 2024. We adopted this ASU retrospectively on December 31, 2024. Refer to Note 10, Business Segments for the inclusion of the new required disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). The ASU requires additional information about the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid beginning with our 10-K for 2025. We are evaluating the impact of this standard on our income tax disclosures.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Subtopic 220-40). The ASU requires the disaggregated disclosure of specific expense categories, including employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization, within relevant income statement captions. The ASU is effective beginning with our 10-K for 2027. We are evaluating the impact of this standard on our disclosures.

  1. Investments in Joint Ventures.

The Company has investments in joint ventures, primarily with other real estate developers. Joint ventures where FRP is not the primary beneficiary are reflected in the line “Investment in joint ventures” on the balance sheet and “Equity in loss of joint ventures” on the income statement. The assets of these joint ventures are restricted to use by the joint ventures and their obligations can only be settled by their assets or additional contributions by the partners.

  1. Related Party Transactions.

The Company is a party to an Administrative Services Agreement which resulted from our January 30, 2015 spin-off of Patriot Transportation Holding, Inc. (Patriot). The Administrative Services Agreement sets forth the terms on which Patriot provided FRP certain services that were shared prior to the Spin-off, including the services of certain employees and executive officers. The boards of the respective companies amended and extended this agreement forone year effective April 1, 2023. Patriot was purchased by an unaffiliated company in December 2023 resulting in FRP and Patriot no longer being related parties. The previously shared executive officers became FRP employees as of January 1, 2024 ending the Administrative Services Agreement.

The consolidated statements of income reflect charges and/or allocation from Patriot for these services of $925,000 and $893,000 for 2023 and 2022, respectively. These charges are reflected as part of general and administrative expense.

To determine these allocations between FRP and Patriot as set forth in the Administrative Services Agreement, we employ an allocation method to allocate said expenses and thus we believe that the allocations to FRP are a reasonable approximation of the costs related to FRP’s operations, but any such related-party transactions cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis.

  1. Debt.

The aggregate amount of principal payments, excluding the revolving credit, due subsequent to December 31, 2024 is: 2025 - $0; 2026 - $0; 2027 - $0; 2028 - $0; 2029 and subsequent years - $180,070,000.

On December 22, 2023, the Company entered into a 2023 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”), effective December 22, 2023. The Credit Agreement modifies the Company’s prior $20 million Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo dated January 30, 2015. The Credit Agreement establishes athree-year revolving credit facility with a maximum facility amount of $35 million. The interest rate under the Credit Agreement will be 2.25% over the Daily Simple SOFR in effect. A commitment fee of 0.35% per annum is payable quarterly on the unused portion of the commitment. As of December 31, 2024, there wasno debt outstanding on this revolver, $548,000 outstanding under letters of credit and $34,452,000 available for borrowing. The letters of credit were issued to guarantee certain obligations to state agencies related to real estate development. Most of the letters of credit are irrevocable for a period ofone year and typically are automatically extended for additionalone-year periods. The letter of credit fee is 2.25% and applicable interest rate would have been 6.71% on December 31, 2024. The credit agreement contains affirmative financial covenants and negative covenants, including a minimum tangible net worth. As of December 31, 2024, these covenants would have limited our ability to pay dividends to a maximum of $105,000,000 combined.

Effective March 31, 2021, the Company consolidated the assets (at current fair value), liabilities and operating results of our Riverfront Investment Partners II, LLC partnership (“The Maren”) which was previously accounted for under the equity method. As such the full amount of our mortgage loan was recorded in the consolidated financial statements.

On March 19, 2021, the Company refinanced Dock 79 and The Maren projects pursuant to separate Loan Agreements and Deed of Trust Notes entered into with Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America, LLC. Dock 79 and The Maren borrowed principal sums of $92,070,000 and $88,000,000 respectively, in connection with the refinancing. The loans are separately secured by the Dock 79 and The Maren real property and improvements, bear a fixed interest rate of 3.03% per annum, and require monthly payments of interest only with the principal in full due April 1, 2033. Either loan may be prepaid subsequent to April 1, 2024, subject to yield maintenance premiums. Either loan may be transferred to a qualified buyer as part of a one-time sale subject to a 60% loan to value, minimum of 7.5% debt yield and a 0.75% transfer fee.

Debt cost amortization of $179,000 and $148,000 was recorded in 2024 and 2023, respectively. During 2024 and 2023, the Company capitalized interest costs of $2,632,000 and $1,336,000, respectively.

The Company was in compliance with all debt covenants as of December 31, 2024.

  1. Leases.

The Company is a lessor of residential apartments, retail portions of mixed-use communities, commercial properties, and open pit aggregates quarries.

Residential

The Company’s residential spaces generally lease for 12 –15-month lease terms. If no notice to move out or renew is made, then the leases go to month to month until notification of termination or renewal is received. Renewal terms are typically 9 –12 months.

Retail

The Company also leases retail spaces at apartment/mixed-use properties. The retail leases are typically 10 -15-year leases with options to renew for another five years. Retail leases at these properties also include percentage rents which average 3-6% of annual sales for the tenant that exceed a breakpoint stipulated by each individual lease. All base rent revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis.

Commercial & Office

The Company’s industrial warehouses typically lease for terms ranging from 3 –10 years often withone ortwo renewal options. All base rent revenue is recognized on a straight-lined basis. All of the commercial warehouse leases are triple net and common area maintenance costs (CAM Revenue) are billed monthly, and insurance and real estate taxes are billed annually. 34 Loveton is the only office product wherein all leases are full service therefore there is no CAM revenue. Office leases are also recognized on a straight-lined basis.

Mining

The Company leases land under long-term leases that grant the lessee the right to mine and sell sand and stone deposits from our property in exchange for royalty payments. A typical lease has an option to extend the lease for additional terms.

At December 31, 2024, the total carrying value of property owned by the Company which is leased or held for lease to others is summarized as follows (in thousands):

For 2024 the Company had 32,530 shares attributable to outstanding stock options that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

During 2023 the Company repurchased 73,818 shares at an average cost of $27.10.

  1. Stock-Based Compensation Plans.

The Company hastwo stock-based compensation plans (the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan and the 2016 Equity Incentive Option Plan) under which equity compensation has been granted to directors, officers and key employees. The 2016 plan permits the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, or stock awards. The options awarded under the plans have similar characteristics. All stock options are non-qualified and expireten years from the date of grant. Stock based compensation awarded to directors, officers and employees are exercisable immediately or become exercisable in cumulative installments of 20% or 25% at the end of each year following the date of grant. When stock options are exercised the Company issues new shares after receipt of exercise proceeds and taxes due, if any, from the grantee.

The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes valuation model for estimating fair value of stock compensation for options awarded to officers and employees. Each grant is evaluated based upon assumptions at the time of grant. The assumptions wereno dividend yield, expected volatility between 28.45% and 41.17%, risk-free interest rate of 2.0% to 3.8% and expected life of 5.0 to 7.0 years.

The dividend yield ofzero is based on the fact that the Company does not pay cash dividends and has no present intention to pay cash dividends. Expected volatility is estimated based on the Company’s historical experience over a period equivalent to the expected life in years. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury constant maturity interest rate at the date of grant with a term consistent with the expected life of the options granted. The expected life calculation is based on the observed and expected time to exercise options by the employees.

In January 2024,12,200 shares of stock options were granted to an employee that will vest over the next four years. In January 2024,20,330 shares of stock options were granted to an employee as part of a long-term incentive plan that will vest over the next five years. In January and May 2024,12,780 shares of restricted stock were granted to employees that will vest over the next four years. In January and May 2024,23,186 shares of restricted stock were granted to employees as part of a long-term incentive plan that will vest over the next five years. In March 2024,6,704 shares of restricted stock were granted to employees under the terms of the 2022 long-term incentive plan. In January 2023,15,960 shares of restricted stock were granted to employees that will vest over the next four years.

Deferred(1,768)1,4951,800
Total$2,0682,0671,015

The deferred taxes are primarily related to the bonus depreciation on property placed in service.

As of December 31, 2024 the Company has deferred taxes of approximately $31 million associated with $112 million of gains on sales reinvested through Opportunity Zone investments. These taxes are deferred until the earlier of the sale of the related investments or April 15, 2027 and 10% of gains are excluded from tax once the investments are held five years plus an additional 5% is excluded at seven years.

A reconciliation between the amount of tax shown above and the amount computed at the statutory Federal income tax rate follows (in thousands):

The Company hasno unrecognized tax benefits.

FRP tax returns in the U.S. and various states that include the Company are subject to audit by taxing authorities. As of December 31, 2024, the earliest tax year that remains open for audit is 2019. Our effective income tax expense may vary, possibly materially, due to projected effective state tax rates.

  1. Employee Benefits.

The Company and certain subsidiaries have a savings/profit sharing plan for the benefit of qualified employees. The savings feature of the plan incorporates the provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code under which an eligible employee may elect to save a portion (within limits) of their compensation on a tax deferred basis. The Company contributes to a participant’s account an amount equal to 50% (with certain limits) of the participant’s contribution. Additionally, the Company may make an annual discretionary contribution to the plan as determined by the Board of Directors, with certain limitations. The plan provides for deferred vesting with benefits payable upon retirement or earlier termination of employment. The Company’s cost was $93,000 in 2024 and $59,000 in 2023.

The Company has a deferred compensation plan, the Management Security Plan (MSP) for our former President. The accruals for future benefits are based upon actuarial assumptions. Life insurance on his life has been purchased to partially fund this benefit and the Company is the owner and beneficiary of that policy. The expense for 2024 and 2023, was $14,000 and $12,000, respectively. The accrued benefit under this plan as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $1,465,000 and $1,409,000, respectively.

  1. Business Segments.

Our Chief Executive Officer, as the CODM, organizes our company, manages resource allocations and measures performance among ourfour reportable segments: Industrial and Commercial, Mining Royalty Lands, Development, and Multifamily, as described below.

The Industrial and Commercial Segment owns, leases and manages in-service commercial properties. Currently this includes nine warehouses intwo business parks, an office building partially occupied by the Company, andtwo ground leases all wholly owned by the Company. This segment will also include joint ventures of commercial properties when they are stabilized.

Our Mining Royalty Lands Segment owns several properties totaling approximately 16,648 acres currently under lease for mining rents or royalties (this does not include the 4,280 acres owned in our Brooksville joint venture with Vulcan Materials). Other than one location in Virginia, all of these properties are located in Florida and Georgia.

Through our Development Segment, we own and are continuously assessing the highest and best use of several parcels of land that are in various stages of development. Our overall strategy in this segment is to convert all of our non-income producing lands into income production through (i) an orderly process of constructing new buildings for us to own and operate or (ii) a sale to, or joint venture with, third parties. Additionally, our Development segment will form joint ventures on new developments of land not previously owned by the Company. Two of our joint ventures in the segment, Lakeland Logistics Park Venture, LLC ("Lakeland") and Davie Logistics Park Venture, LLC ("Davie") are consolidated.

The Multifamily Segment includes joint ventures which own, lease and manage buildings that have met our initial lease-up criteria. Two of our joint ventures in the segment, Riverfront Investment Partners I, LLC (“Dock 79”) and Riverfront Investment Partners II, LLC (“The Maren”) are consolidated.

Our CODM uses revenues, operating profit before general and administrative expense, depreciation and amortization, and identifiable assets to allocate operating and capital resources and assesses performance of each segment by comparing actual results to historical, budgeted, and forecasted financial information. We do not believe that an allocation of general and administrative expense to each segment is relevant to our CODM's assessments due to the market excluding those costs in property valuation and the materiality of expenditures related to future opportunities.

  1. 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 are those that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

At December 31, 2024, the Company was invested in U.S. Treasury notes valued at $10,000,000 maturing through mid-2024. The unrealized gain on these investments of $2,782 was recorded as part of comprehensive income and was based on the estimated market value by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (Level 1).

At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents including U.S. Treasury notes was adjusted to fair value as described above.

The fair values of the Company’s other mortgage notes payable were estimated based on current rates available to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities. At December 31, 2024, the carrying amount and fair value of such other long-term debt was $180,070,000 and $141,302,000, respectively. At December 31, 2023, the carrying amount and fair value of such other long-term debt was $180,070,000 and $145,678,000, respectively.

  1. Contingent Liabilities.

The Company may be involved in litigation on a number of matters and is 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. 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.

The Company is subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations. The Company believes that the ultimate disposition of currently known environmental matters will not have a material effect on its financial position, liquidity, or operations. The Company can give no assurance that previous environmental studies with respect to its properties have revealed all potential environmental contaminants; that any previous owner, occupant or tenant did not create any material environmental condition not known to the Company; that the current environmental condition of the properties will not be affected by tenants and occupants, by the condition of nearby properties, or by unrelated third parties; and that changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations or their interpretation will not result in additional environmental liability to the Company.

As of December 31, 2024, there was $548,000 outstanding under letters of credit. The letters of credit were issued to guarantee certain obligations to state agencies related to real estate development.

The Company and MRP Realty (MRP) previously guaranteed $26 million of the construction loan on the Bryant Street Partnerships in exchange for a 1% lower interest rate. The value of the guarantee was calculated at $1.9 million based on the present value of the 1% interest savings over the anticipated 48-month term. This amount is included as part of the Company’s investment basis and was amortized to expense over the 48 months. In December 2023 this loan was paid in full with proceeds from another lender and contributions by the Company and MRP. The Company recorded a gain of $1.9 million in December 2023 as the guarantee liability was relieved.

The Company and MRP provided a guaranty for the interest carry cost of $110 million loan on the Bryant Street Partnerships issued in December 2023. The Company and MRP have a side agreement limiting the Company’s guarantee to its proportionate ownership. The value of the guarantee was calculated at $1.5 million based on the present value of the our assumption of 0.8% interest savings over the anticipated 36-month term. This amount is included as part of the Company’s investment basis and is amortized to expense over the 36 months. The Company will evaluate the guarantee liability based upon the success of the project and assuming no payments are made under the guarantee, the Company will have a gain for $1.5 million when the loan is paid in full.

  1. Commitments.

The Company, at December 31, 2024, had entered into various contracts to develop and maintain real estate with remaining commitments totaling $4.4 million.

As of December 31, 2024, we had additional financing commitments to our residential development lending ventures totaling $4.7 million.

  1. Concentrations.

The mining royalty lands segment has a total offive tenants currently leasing mining locations and one lessee that accounted for 23% of the Company’s consolidated revenues during 2024 and $426,000 of accounts receivable at December 31, 2024. The termination of these lessees’ underlying leases could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with Wells Fargo Bank and TD Bank. At times, such amounts may exceed FDIC limits.

  1. Unusual or Infrequent Items Impacting Results.

See Note 12 regarding guarantee liability expense.

  1. Intangible Assets.

The Company has allocated the purchase price of property acquisitions based upon the fair value of the assets acquired, consisting of land, buildings and intangible assets, including in-place leases and below market leases. These deferred leasing intangible assets are recorded within Deferred Costs and Deferred lease intangible, net in the consolidated balance sheets. The value of the in-place lease intangibles will be amortized over the remaining lease terms. The fair value assigned pertaining to the above market in-place leases values are amortized as a reduction to rental revenue, and the below market in-place lease values are amortized as an increase to rental revenue over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases.

The Company reviews intangible assets for impairment, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset group to the future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by those assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment charge recognized is the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

The Company had the following acquired lease intangibles (in thousands):

  1. Contributions from partners.

On November 4, 2022 the Company sold a 20% ownership interest in tenancy-in-common (TIC) of Dock 79 and The Maren for $65.3 million to a new partner Steuart Investment Company (SIC). Net of the mortgage assumption of $36.0 million and the Company’s share of transfer taxes and other transactions costs of $1.4 million the net contribution was $27.9 million. Of this amount $9.3 million was distributed to MRP and $18.6 million to the Company. A reallocation of partners’ interest of $7.7 million was recorded to Capital in excess of par value for the difference between the $18.6 million consideration received by the Company and the net book value of the Company’s share of assets sold.
