JACKSONVILLE, Fla., March 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FRP Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ-FRPH) –
Fourth Quarter Operational Highlights (compared to the same quarter last year)
- 20.6% increase in pro-rata NOI ($7.55 million vs $6.26 million)
- 42.9% increase in Industrial and Commercial revenue; 46.1% increase in Industrial and Commercial NOI
Fourth Quarter Consolidated Results of Operations
Net income for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $2,880,000 or $.30 per share versus $2,756,000 or $.29 per share in the same period last year. The fourth quarter of 2023 was impacted by the following items:
- Operating profit increased $466,000 compared to the same quarter last year primarily due to improved revenues in the Industrial and Commercial Segment and decreased depreciation at Dock 79.
- Interest income increased $423,000 primarily due to an increase in interest earned on cash equivalents ($889,000) offset by decreased income from our lending ventures ($245,000) and decreased preferred interest ($221,000).
- Interest expense increased $188,000 compared to the same quarter last year due to less capitalized interest. We capitalized less interest because of fewer in-house and joint venture projects under development this quarter compared to last year.
- Equity in loss of Joint Ventures increased $879,000 primarily due to a $1.9 million gain on our guarantee liability for the refinanced Bryant Street loan which was more than offset by the same quarter last year including a $2.8 million gain on disposition of our Hickory Creek JV.
Fourth Quarter Segment Operating Results
NB: We have changed the name of both our Asset Management and Stabilized Joint Venture Business Segments. Going forward they are now our Industrial and Commercial and Multifamily Segments. These changes are purely cosmetic and don’t require any movement of assets between segments or restatement of results.
Industrial and Commercial Segment:
Total revenues in this segment were $1,422,000, up $427,000 or 42.9%, over the same period last year. Operating profit was $539,000, up $186,000 from $353,000 in the same quarter last year. Revenues and operating profit are up because of full occupancy at 1841 62nd Street (compared to 0% same period last year) and the addition of 1941 62nd Street to this segment in March 2023. We now have nine buildings in service at three different locations totaling 515,077 square feet of industrial and 33,708 square feet of office. At quarter end, we were 95.6% leased and 95.6% occupied. Net operating income in this segment was $1,172,000, up $370,000 or 46.1% compared to the same quarter last year.
Mining Royalty Lands Segment:
Total revenues in this segment were $2,899,000 versus $2,904,000 in the same period last year. Total operating profit in this segment was $2,529,000, an increase of $77,000 versus $2,452,000 in the same period last year. Net Operating Income this quarter for this segment was $2,610,000, down $169,000 or 6.1% compared to the same quarter last year due to unrealized revenue that we will collect in 2024.
Development Segment:
With respect to ongoing projects:
- We are the principal capital source of a residential development venture in Prince George’s County, MD known as “Amber Ridge.” Of the $18.5 million of committed capital to the project, $18.0 million in principal draws have taken place through quarter end. Through the end of December 31, 2023, all 187 units have been sold, and we have received $20.2 million in preferred interest and principal to date.
- Bryant Street is a mixed-use joint venture between the Company and MRP in Washington, DC consisting of three apartment buildings with ground floor retail and one commercial building which is fully leased. At quarter end, Bryant Street’s 487 residential units were 92.0% leased and 93.8% occupied. Its commercial space was 96.6% leased and 82.7% occupied at quarter end.
- Lease-up is underway at The Verge, and at quarter end, the building was 90.7% leased and 85.8% occupied inclusive of 25 units licensed to Placemaker Management for a short-term corporate rental program. Retail at this location is 45.2% leased. This is our third mixed-use project in the Anacostia waterfront submarket in Washington, DC.
- .408 Jackson is our second joint venture project in Greenville. Leasing began in the fourth quarter of 2022 with residential units 95.2% leased and 93.4% occupied at quarter end. Retail at this location is 100% leased and currently under construction and expected to open this winter.
- Windlass Run, our suburban office and retail joint venture with St. John Properties, Inc. signed a new office lease for 3,526 square feet bringing the office portion of the project to 87.0% leased and 78.3% occupied. Additional retail space at this site is 38.2% leased and 22.9% occupied.
- Last summer we broke ground on a new speculative warehouse project in Aberdeen, MD on Chelsea Road. Site work is nearing completion with vertical construction underway. This Class A, 259,200 square foot building is due to be complete in the 3rd quarter of 2024.
- We are the principal capital source for a residential development venture in Harford County, MD known as Aberdeen Overlook. The project includes 110 acres and 344 residential building lots. We have committed $31.1 million to the project with $20 million currently drawn. A national homebuilder is under contract to purchase all 222 townhome and 122 single family dwelling lots. As of year-end 11 lots had been sold and $4.5 million of preferred interest and principal has been returned to the company.
Multifamily Segment:
Total revenues in this segment were $5,370,000, a decrease of $112,000 versus $5,482,000 in the same period last year. The Maren’s revenue was $2,576,000, an increase of .2% and Dock 79 revenues decreased $117,000 to $2,794,000 or 4.0%. Total operating profit in this segment was $1,161,000, an increase of $132,000 versus $1,029,000 in the same period last year. Pro-rata net operating income this quarter for this segment was $1,865,000, down $363,000 or 16.3% compared to the same quarter last year because of the sale of our 20% Tenancy-In-Common (TIC) interest in both properties to Steuart Investment Company (SIC), mitigated by $124,000 in pro-rata NOI from our share of the Riverside joint venture in Greenville, SC.
At the end of December, The Maren was 93.94% leased and 94.70% occupied. Average residential occupancy for the quarter was 94.10%, and 61.22% of expiring leases renewed with an average rent increase on renewals of 2.75%. The Maren is a joint venture between the Company and MRP and SIC, in which FRP Holdings, Inc. is the majority partner with 56.3% ownership.
Dock 79’s average residential occupancy for the quarter was 94.78%, and at the end of the quarter, Dock 79’s residential units were 95.08% leased and 96.39% occupied. This quarter, 69.77% of expiring leases renewed with an average rent increase on renewals of 1.59%. Dock 79 is a joint venture between the Company and MRP and SIC, in which FRP Holdings, Inc. is the majority partner with 52.8% ownership.
During the third quarter of 2022, we achieved stabilization at our Riverside Joint Venture in Greenville, South Carolina. At quarter end, the building was 95.50% leased with 94.50% occupancy. Average occupancy for the quarter was 95.21% with 53.13% of expiring leases renewing with an average rental increase of 2.04%. Riverside is a joint venture with Woodfield Development and the Company owns 40% of the venture.

Calendar Year 2023 Consolidated Results of Operations
Net income for 2023 was $5,302,000 or $.56 per share versus $4,565,000 or $.48 per share in the same period last year. The calendar year 2023 was impacted by the following items:
- Operating profit increased $3,704,000 compared to the same period last year due to improved revenues and profits in all four segments.
- Management company indirect increased $553,000 due to merit increases and new hires along with recruiting costs.

Calendar Year 2023 Segment Operating Results
Industrial and Commercial Segment:
Total revenues in this segment were $5,354,000, up $1,673,000 or 45.4%, over the same period last year. Operating profit was $1,764,000, up $804,000 from $960,000 in the same period last year. Revenues and operating profit are up partly because of rent growth at Cranberry Run, but primarily because of full occupancy at 1865 and 1841 62nd Street and the addition of 1941 62nd Street to this segment in March 2023. Net operating income in this segment was $3,898,000, up $1,232,000 or 46.2% compared to the same period last year.
Mining Royalty Lands Segment:
Total revenues in this segment were $12,527,000 versus $10,683,000 in the same period last year. Total operating profit in this segment was $10,560,000, an increase of $1,669,000 versus $8,891,000 in the same period last year. This increase is the result of the additional royalties from the acquisition in Astatula, FL, which we completed at the beginning of the second quarter 2022, as well as increases in revenue at nearly every active location. Net Operating Income in this segment was $11,720,000, up $1,568,000 or 15.4% compared to the same period last year.
Multifamily Segment:
In the fourth quarter of 2022, as part of our new partnership with Steuart Investment Company and MidAtlantic Realty Partners, we sold a 20% ownership interest in a tenancy-in-common (TIC) of Dock 79 and The Maren for $65.3 million, $44.5 million attributable to the Company, placing a combined valuation of the two buildings at $326.5 million.
Total revenues in this segment were $21,824,000, an increase of $381,000 versus $21,443,000 in the same period last year. The Maren’s revenue was $10,477,000, an increase of 4.3%, and Dock 79 revenues decreased $51,000 or .4% to $11,398,000. Total operating profit in this segment was $3,717,000, an increase of $497,000 versus $3,220,000 in the same period last year. Pro-rata net operating income for this segment was $8,077,000, down $1,392,000 or 14.7% compared to the same period last year because of the sale of our 20% TIC interest in both properties to SIC, mitigated by $800,000 in pro-rata NOI from our share of the Riverside joint venture.
At the end of December, The Maren was 93.94% leased and 94.70% occupied. Average residential occupancy for calendar year 2023 was 95.60%, and 53.23% of expiring leases renewed with an average rent increase on renewals of 4.21%. The Maren is a joint venture between the Company and MRP and SIC, in which FRP Holdings, Inc. is the majority partner with 56.3% ownership.
Dock 79’s average residential occupancy for calendar year 2023 was 94.36%, and at the end of the year, Dock 79’s residential units were 95.08% leased and 96.39% occupied. Through the year, 68.29% of expiring leases renewed with an average rent increase on renewals of 2.80%. Dock 79 is a joint venture between the Company and MRP and SIC, in which FRP Holdings, Inc. is the majority partner with 52.8% ownership.
During the third quarter of 2022, we achieved stabilization at our Riverside Joint Venture in Greenville, South Carolina. At the end of December, the building was 95.50% leased with 94.50% occupancy. Average occupancy for calendar year 2023 was 94.51% with 55.41% of expiring leases renewing with an average rental increase of 8.46%. Riverside is a joint venture with Woodfield Development and the Company owns 40% of the venture.
Summary and Outlook
Royalty revenue was up 17.3% over 2022 in what had previously been the highest revenue year for this segment. This kind of revenue growth is all the more remarkable when tons sold decreased by .76 %. We are fortunate in both the locations of our mining assets, but also in the ability of our operators to push price aggressively. State and national infrastructure spending is expected to increase in 2024 creating further demand for aggregates products.
In our Multifamily Segment, we are starting to feel the effects of a softening DC market. Revenues are more or less flat between Dock 79 and the Maren and did not keep pace with expenses. Pro-rata NOI is down which is to be expected after selling 20% of our share of Dock 79 and The Maren to SIC. But NOI for the two projects as a whole decreased 1.3% ($13,358,000 vs $13,529,000) compared to 2022. We should expect the market to remain slack until all the new supply has been absorbed. 2023 was the first full calendar year of operation for our Riverside multifamily joint venture in Greenville, SC. Average annual occupancy (94.51%), renewals on expiring leases (55.41%), and rent increases on renewals (8.46%) were all strong. NOI this quarter compared to each of the first three quarters fell off because of increased taxes as the project was annexed into the city of Greenville. We remain excited about the Greenville market and look forward to adding .408 Jackson to this segment when it stabilizes in early 2024.
In our Industrial and Commercial segment, occupancy and our overall square-footage have increased since the end of 2022, leading to a 46.2% increase in NOI in 2023 compared to the previous year. We are 95.6% leased and occupied on 548,785 square feet compared to 84.3% occupied on 447,035 square feet at the end of 2022.
As we have stated on a number of occasions in the recent past, we have shifted our development focus away from multifamily in the DC market and towards industrial projects. We are underway on the construction of a $30 million spec warehouse project at our Chelsea site in Aberdeen, MD, which we plan to deliver in the third quarter of 2024. We are also in preliminary discussions on two industrial joint ventures in Florida. We will continue to do the predevelopment work required to prepare the first phase of our partnership with SIC and MRP for vertical construction, but that’s as far as we will take that project until the partnership feels macroeconomic and market conditions are right. The same is true for two other mixed-use projects with Woodfield Development (our JV partner in Riverside and .408 Jackson) that are currently in pre-development in Greenville, SC and Estero, FL. We are pursuing entitlements for these joint ventures and they will be ready for vertical development by the second half of 2024. But we will only move forward when market conditions warrant it. Along with our balance sheet, we consider our development strategy and the ability to shift our focus and capital among asset classes to be our biggest strength. We will pursue our current development strategy aggressively, while allowing for a healthy capital cushion to protect our assets and opportunistically repurchase shares. To that end, in 2023, we repurchased 36,909 shares at an average cost of $54.19 per share.
Subsequent Event
Subsequent to the end of the year, on March 6, 2024, FRP Holdings, Inc announced that it intends to effect a forward stock split in the nature of a dividend of its common stock at a ratio of 2 post-split shares for every 1 pre-split share. The record date for the split will be April 1, 2024, and the payment date is April 12, 2024.
At the effective time of the forward stock split, every share of the Company's issued common stock will be converted automatically into two issued shares of common stock. Stockholders holding shares through a brokerage account will have their shares automatically adjusted to reflect the 2:1 forward stock split. It is not necessary for stockholders holding shares of the Company's common stock in certificated form to exchange their existing stock certificates for new stock certificates of the Company in connection with the forward stock split, although stockholders may do so if they wish.
The forward stock split will affect all stockholders uniformly and will not alter any stockholder's percentage interest in the Company's equity. Proportional adjustments will be made to the number of shares of the Company's common stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of FRP Holdings, Inc.’s equity awards and warrants, as well as the applicable exercise price. Stockholders whose shares are held in brokerage accounts should direct any questions concerning the forward stock split to their broker. All stockholders of record may direct questions to the Company's transfer agent, Equiniti.

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. We believe these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to our Board of Directors, management and investors regarding certain trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations. Our management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare our performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, purposes of determining management incentive compensation and budgeting, forecasting and planning purposes. We provide Pro-rata net operating income (NOI) because we believe it assists investors and analysts in estimating our economic interest in our consolidated and unconsolidated partnerships, when read in conjunction with our reported results under GAAP. This measure is not, and should not be viewed as, a substitute for GAAP financial measures.
