FRP Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: FRPH) Announces Results For The Third Quarter Of Fiscal 2016.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased primarily due to $139,000 of accelerated depreciation for tenant improvements removed during the quarter for a new tenant and the Port Capital purchase.  Corporate expense increased due to the Reallocation and higher professional fees.

During the 2nd quarter, the Company identified an opportunity to buy the Gilroy Road building located in Hunt Valley, MD, for a purchase price of $8,331,000.  The Company closed on this acquisition July 1, 2016.   The building is a 116,338 square foot Class "B" warehouse facility inclusive of 8,900 square feet of second floor mezzanine office space (107,438 sf footprint) on 7.0 acres in Hunt Valley, MD.  The property is 100% leased.  Rental revenue (excluding reimbursements) is projected to be $755,000 in fiscal 2017.

Mining Royalty Lands Segment:

Total revenues in this segment were $2,059,000, an increase of 18.7%, versus $1,735,000 in the same quarter last year due to an increase in tons sold at locations over the minimum.  Total operating profit in this segment was $1,888,000, an increase of $535,000 (inclusive of a $171,000 benefit from the Reallocation), versus $1,353,000 in the third 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 was completed during the third quarter of this fiscal year and transferred to the Asset Management segment for lease-up. Also in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 we started construction on a 103,653 square foot building in Patriot Business Center and pre-leased 51,727 square feet. The Company executed a letter of intent with MRP Realty in May 2016 to develop Phase II of the Riverfront on the Anacostia project and recorded an estimated environmental remediation expense of $2.0 million for the Company's estimated liability under the proposed agreement.

Operating expenses were higher than the same quarter last year primarily due to professional fees pursuing settlement negotiations with other potentially responsible parties for environmental contamination and an eminent domain proceeding both at Riverfront on the Anacostia.    

Fiscal 2016 First Nine Months Consolidated Results of Continuing Operations.

Income from continuing operations for the first nine months of fiscal 2016 was $10,067,000 or $1.02 per share versus $4,022,000 or $.41 per share in the first nine months last year.  The first nine months of fiscal 2016 included $.44 per share from a gain on land sale of $6,177,000 and income of $1,000,000 from the $3 million environmental claim cash settlement received offset by a $2 million estimated liability for environmental remediation on Phase II.  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 nine months ended June 30, 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 nine months of fiscal 2015 including $1,081,000 of corporate overhead expense to the Company that was associated with the discontinued transportation operations.

Total revenues were up $1,934,000, or 7.5%, versus the same period last year.  Consolidated adjusted total operating profit in the first nine months of the year (excluding the positive impacts of the environmental settlement/expense (net) in this period and the negative impact of corporate expense not allocable to discontinued operations in the prior year) was up 16.9% over the same period last year (see table "Non-GAAP Financial Measures).

First Nine Months Segment Operating Results.

Asset Management Segment:

Total revenues in this segment were $21,416,000, up $820,000 or 4.0%, over the same period last year. Net operating income in this segment for the period was $16,317,000, compared to $15,726,000 in the 3rd quarter last year, an increase of 3.8%.  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. 

Depreciation and amortization expense increased primarily due to $139,000 of accelerated depreciation for tenant improvements removed during the current quarter for a new tenant and the Port Capital purchase.  Corporate expense increased due to the reallocation and higher professional fees.

Mining Royalty Lands Segment:

Total revenues in this segment were $5,496,000, an increase of 24.5%, versus $4,414,000 in the same period last year due to an increase in tons sold.  Total operating profit in this segment was $4,932,000, an increase of $2,032,000 (inclusive of a $885,000 benefit from the Reallocation), versus $2,900,000 in the first nine months of last year. 

Land Development and Construction Segment:

In addition to the items occurring in the 3rd quarter as outlined above, during the first nine 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.  This recovery was mostly offset by the recordation of environmental remediation expense of $2.0 million for Phase II.

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 (excluding the recently completed spec building) with estimated FY 2016 rental revenues of $5,587,000.

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

During the remainder of fiscal 2016, we expect to continue construction on a new 104,000 sq.ft. spec building at Patriot Business Park, reconstruct the bulk head at the Square 664E property in anticipation of future high-rise development, and continue management of construction and lease up of Phase I (Dock 79) of RiverFront on the Anacostia and pre-development activities for Phase II. Phase I pre-leasing activity for the 305 residential units commenced in late May of 2016 and as of July 18th the residential units were 18.8% pre-leased with occupancy not expected until August 2016.
