Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollars in thousands, unless otherwise stated)
- Nature of Operations
The St. Joe Company together with its consolidated subsidiaries (“St. Joe” or the “Company”) is a diversified Florida real estate development, asset management and operating company with all of its real estate assets and operations in Northwest Florida. Approximately 87% of the Company’s real estate is located in Florida’s Bay, Gulf, and Walton counties. Approximately 90% of the Company’s real estate land holdings are located within fifteen miles of the Gulf of Mexico.
The Company conducts primarily all of its business in the following three reportable segments: 1) residential, 2) hospitality and 3) commercial. See Note 16.Segment Information for additional information*.*
- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements are not included herein. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries, voting interest entities where the Company has a majority voting interest or control and variable interest entities where the Company deems itself the primary beneficiary. Investments in JVs in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary, or a voting interest entity where the Company does not have a majority voting interest or control, but has significant influence are unconsolidated and accounted for by the equity method of accounting. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The December 31, 2024 condensed consolidated balance sheet amounts have been derived from the Company’s December 31, 2024 audited consolidated financial statements. Certain prior period amounts in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s previously reported total assets and liabilities, equity or net income. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2025.
A variable interest entity (“VIE”) is an entity in which a controlling financial interest may be achieved through arrangements that do not involve voting interests. A VIE is required to be consolidated by its primary beneficiary, which is the entity that possesses the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that are significant to the VIE. The Company consolidates VIEs when it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The Company continues to evaluate whether it is the primary beneficiary as needed when assessing reconsideration events. See Note 4.* Joint Ventures*for additional information.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained herein. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company adheres to the same accounting policies in preparation of its unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as the Company’s December 31, 2024 annual financial statements, except for any recently adopted accounting pronouncements. As required under GAAP, interim accounting for certain expenses, including income taxes, are based on full year assumptions. For interim financial reporting purposes, income taxes are recorded based upon estimated annual income tax rates.
Concentration of Risks and Uncertainties
All of the Company’s real estate assets are concentrated in Northwest Florida. Uncertain economic conditions could have an adverse impact on the Company’s operations and asset values.
Throughout the first three months of 2025, the Company continued to generate positive financial results. While macroeconomic factors such as tariffs, inflation, elevated interest rates, higher insurance costs, supply chain disruptions, labor shortages, financial institution disruptions and geopolitical conflicts, among other things, continued to produce economic headwinds and impacted buyer sentiment, demand across the Company’s segments remains strong. The Company believes this is primarily due to the continued growth of Northwest Florida as a result of increased migration, which the Company attributes to the region’s high quality of life, natural beauty and outstanding amenities.
Despite the strong demand across the Company’s segments, the Company also continues to feel the impact from the aforementioned macroeconomic factors. In addition, inflation, higher insurance costs and elevated interest rates, have increased operating costs and loan rates, as compared to recent years. While elevated interest rates have negatively impacted buyers’ ability to obtain financing and the housing market generally, the impact has been offset by the net migration into the Company’s markets, limited housing supply relative to demand and the number of cash buyers. Market conditions have not caused an increase in cancellation rates as homebuilders have continued to perform on their contractual obligations with the Company.
The Company’s operations may be affected by seasonal fluctuations. The revenues and earnings from the Company’s business segments may vary significantly from period to period. Homebuilders tend to buy multiple homesites in sporadic transactions. In addition, homesite prices vary significantly by community, which further impacts period over period results. Therefore, there may be reporting periods in which the Company has no, or significantly less, revenue from residential or commercial real estate sales. The Company may also choose to operate rather than lease assets, lease rather than sell assets, or sell improved rather than unimproved land that may delay revenue and profits.
Hospitality revenues are typically higher in the second and third quarters, and vary depending on the timing of holidays and school breaks. Commercial real estate sales tend to be non-recurring. Projects depend on uncertain demand. Extraordinary events such as hurricanes or public health emergencies may dramatically change demand and pricing for products and services.
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents, other receivables and investments held by special purpose entity or entities (“SPE”). The Company deposits and invests cash with local, regional and national financial institutions, and as of March 31, 2025, these balances exceeded the amount of F.D.I.C. insurance provided on such deposits. In addition, as of March 31, 2025, the Company had $59.0 million invested in short-term U.S. Treasury Bills and $3.1 million invested in U.S. Treasury Money Market Funds classified as cash and cash equivalents.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to the Company by the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to the Company by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, including potential dilutive common shares. The treasury stock method is used to determine the effect on diluted earnings. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had 60,217 and 65,688, respectively, unvested shares of restricted stock. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024,46,337 and 44,842, respectively, potentially dilutive restricted stock units were excluded from the calculation of diluted income per share, since the effect would have been anti-dilutive based on the application of the treasury stock method. See Note 13.Stockholders’ Equity for additional information related to the issuance of common stock for employee compensation.
The computation of basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows:

- Joint Ventures
The Company enters into JVs, from time to time, for the purpose of developing real estate and other business activities in which the Company may or may not have a controlling financial interest. GAAP requires consolidation of voting interest entities where the Company has a majority voting interest or control and VIEs in which an enterprise has a controlling financial interest and is the primary beneficiary. A controlling financial interest will have both of the following characteristics: (i) the power to direct the VIE activities that most significantly impact economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company examines specific criteria and uses judgment when determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary and must consolidate a VIE. The Company continues to evaluate whether it is the primary beneficiaryas needed when assessing reconsideration events. Investments in JVs in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary, or a voting interest entity where the Company does not have a majority voting interest or control, but has significant influence are unconsolidated and accounted for by the equity method of accounting.
The timing of cash flows for additional required capital contributions related to the Company’s JVs varies by agreement. Some of the Company’s consolidated and unconsolidated JVs have entered into financing agreements where the Company or its JV partners have provided guarantees. See Note 8.Debt, Netand Note 17.Commitments and Contingenciesfor additional information. The Company provides mitigation bank credits, impact and other fees, property for lease and services to certain unconsolidated JVs and incurs expense for leasing management services from the Company’s unconsolidated Watersound Management, LLC (“Watersound Management JV”), see Note 18.Related Party Transactionsfor additional information.

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
The Company evaluates its investment in unconsolidated JVs for impairment during each reporting period. A series of operating losses of an investee or other factors may indicate that a decrease in the value of the Company’s investment in the unconsolidated JV has occurred. The amount of impairment recognized is the excess of the investment’s carrying value over its estimated fair value. The fair value of the Company’s investment in unconsolidated JVs is determined primarily using a discounted cash flow model to value the underlying net assets or cash flows of the respective JV. The fair value of investment in unconsolidated JVs required to be assessed for impairment is determined using Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. No impairment for unconsolidated JVs was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. See Note 4.* Joint Ventures* for additional information.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables, other assets, accounts payable and other liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
The Company uses the following methods and assumptions in estimating fair value for financial instruments:
| ● | The fair value of the investments held by SPE - time deposit is based on the present value of future cash flows at the current market rate. |
| ● | The fair value of the investments held by SPE - U.S. Treasury Bills are measured based on quoted market prices in an active market. |
| ● | The fair value of debt is based on discounted future expected cash flows based on current market rates for financial instruments with similar risks, terms and maturities. |
| ● | The fair value of the senior notes held by SPE is based on the present value of future cash flows at the current market rate. |
The carrying amount and estimated fair value, measured on a nonrecurring basis, of the Company’s financial instruments were as follows:

As of March 31, 2025, the Company leased certain office and other equipment under finance leases and had operating leases for property and equipment used in corporate, hospitality and commercial operations with remaining lease terms up to the year 2081. Operating leases also include property for hospitality employee housing. Certain leases include options to purchase, terminate or renew for one or more years, which are included in the lease term used to establish right-of-use assets and lease liabilities when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease payments since the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable. The Company recognizes short-term (twelve months or less) lease payments in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred.

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had income tax payable of $2.3 million and $1.8 million, respectively, included within accounts payable and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
In general, a valuation allowance is recorded if, based on all available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Realization of the Company’s deferred tax assets is dependent upon the Company generating sufficient taxable income in future years in the appropriate tax jurisdictions to obtain a benefit from the reversal of deductible temporary differences and from loss carryforwards. As of both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company didnot have a valuation allowance.
Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company's uncertain tax positions and determining its provision for income taxes. The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from potential examinations to determine the adequacy of its provision for income taxes and applies a “more-likely-than-not” in determining the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in the tax returns. The Company has not identified any material unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024.

- Segment Information
The Company conducts primarily all of its business in the following three reportable segments: (1) residential, (2) hospitality and (3) commercial. The Company’s reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. They are each managed separately and decisions about allocations of resources are determined by management based on these strategic business units.
The accounting policies of the segments are set forth in Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements contained in Item 15 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Total revenue represents sales to unaffiliated customers, as reported in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income.

The Company uses total segment revenue, gross profit and income before income taxes and non-controlling interest and other qualitative measures for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to each segment and assessing each segment’s performance, which the Company believes represents current performance measures.
The Company’s President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board is the Chief Operating Decision maker (the “CODM”). For the residential, hospitality and commercial segments, the CODM uses segment revenue, gross profit and income before income taxes and non-controlling interest to allocate resources (including employees, property, and financial or capital resources) for each segment predominantly in the annual budget and forecasting process. The CODM considers budget-to-actual variances on a monthly basis for the profit measures when making decisions about
allocating capital and personnel to the segments. The CODM also uses segment revenue and gross profit for evaluating product pricing and segment income before income taxes and non-controlling interest to assess the performance for each segment by comparing the results and return on assets of each segment with one another and in the compensation of certain employees.
The Company does not allocate income taxes or certain unusual items to segments. In addition, the hospitality and commercial segments have significant noncash depreciation and amortization in reported profit or loss.

- Commitments and Contingencies
The Company establishes an accrued liability when it is both probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company will evaluate the range of reasonably estimated losses and record an accrued liability based on what it believes to be the minimum amount in the range, unless it believes an amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount. In such cases, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of the amounts accrued. The Company evaluates quarterly whether further developments could affect the amount of the accrued liability previously established or would make a loss contingency both probable and reasonably estimable.
The Company also provides disclosure when it believes it is reasonably possible that a material loss will be incurred or when it believes it is reasonably possible that the amount of a loss will exceed the recorded liability. The Company reviews loss contingencies at least quarterly to determine whether the likelihood of loss has changed and to assess whether a reasonable estimate of the loss or range of loss can be made. This estimated range of possible losses is based upon currently available information and is subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions, as well as known and unknown uncertainties. The matters underlying the estimated range will change from time to time, and actual results may vary significantly from the current estimate.
The Company is subject to a variety of litigation, claims, other disputes and governmental proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of its business, including litigation related to its prior development activities. The Company cannot make assurances that it will be successful in defending these matters. Based on current knowledge, the Company does not believe that loss contingencies arising from pending litigation, claims, other disputes and governmental proceedings, including those described herein, will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or liquidity of the Company. However, in light of the inherent uncertainties involved in these matters, an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could be material to the Company’s results of operations or cash flows for any particular reporting period.
The Company is subject to costs arising out of environmental laws and regulations, which include obligations to remove or limit the effects on the environment of the disposal or release of certain wastes or substances at various sites, including sites which have been previously sold. It is the Company’s policy to accrue and charge against earnings environmental cleanup costs when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and a range of loss can be reasonably estimated. As assessments and cleanups proceed, these accruals are reviewed and adjusted, if necessary, as additional information becomes available. The Company is in the process of assessing certain properties in regard to the effects, if any, on the environment from the disposal or release of wastes or substances. Management is unable to quantify future rehabilitation costs above present accruals at this time or provide a reasonably estimated range of loss.
Other litigation, claims and disputes, including environmental matters, are pending against the Company. Accrued aggregate liabilities related to the matters described above and other litigation matters were $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Significant judgment is required in both the determination of probability and whether the amount of an exposure is reasonably estimable. Due to uncertainties related to these matters, accruals are based only on the information available at the time. As additional information becomes available, management reassesses potential liabilities related to pending claims and litigation and may revise its previous estimates, which could materially affect the Company’s results of operations for any particular reporting period.
The Company has retained certain self-insurance risks with respect to losses for third party liability and property damage, including its timber assets.
