NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(Dollars in thousands )
1. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal
recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position
as of March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994 and the results of operations
and cash flows for the three month period ended March 31, 1995 and 1994.
2. The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 1995
and 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the full year.
3. Inventories at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994:
March 31 December 31
1995 1994
Manufactured paper products and
associated raw materials $ 31,810 $ 27,023
Materials and supplies 25,834 25,640
Sugar 18,144 5,010
$ 75,788 $ 57,673
4. The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in litigation on a number
of matters and are subject to certain claims which arise in the normal
course of business, none of which, in the opinion of management, is
expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated
financial position or results of operations.
The Company has retained certain self-insurance risks with respect to
losses for third party liability, property damage and group health
insurance provided to employees.
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. 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 an amount is reasonably estimable.
As assessments and cleanups proceed, these accruals are reviewed and
adjusted, if necessary, as additional information becomes available.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(Dollars in thousands )
The Company is currently a party to, or involved in, legal proceedings
directed at the cleanup of two Superfund sites. The Company has accrued
its allocated share of the total estimated cleanup costs for these two
sites. Based upon management's evaluation of the other potentially
responsible parties, the Company does not expect to incur additional
amounts even though the Company has joint and several liability. Other
proceedings involving environmental matters such as alleged discharge of
oil or waste material into water or soil are pending against the Company.
It is not possible to quantify future environmental costs because many
issues relate to actions by third parties or changes in environmental
regulation. However, based on information presently available, management
believes that the ultimate disposition of currently known matters will
not have a material effect on the financial position or liquidity of the
Company , but could be material to the results of operation of the
Company in any one period. As of March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994,
the aggregate environmental related accruals were $6.7 million.
Environmental liabilities are paid over an extended period and the timing
of such payments cannot be predicted with any confidence.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
Net sales and operating revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 1995 were
$184.0 million, a $16.7 million increase over the same period in 1994. Cost of
sales and operating expenses were $135.4 million, up from $134.5 million.
These costs were 73.6% of net sales and operating revenues in 1995 compared
to 80.4% in 1994. Selling, general and administrative expenses rose from
$13.9 million in 1994 to $15.5 million in 1995. As a result of these changes,
operating profit during the first quarter of 1995 was $33.1 million compared
to $19.0 million in the first quarter of 1995. An analysis of operating
results by segment follows:
Forest Products
% Increase
1995 1994 (Decrease)
Net Sales 115,248 84,500 36.4
Cost of Sales 86,497 82,488 4.9
Selling, General and Administrative
Expenses 8,061 7,378 9.3
Operating Profit (Loss) 20,690 (5,366) 485.6
The containerboard market continues to be tight with additional price
increases effective January 1 and April 1, 1995. Average selling price for
the Company's linerboard rose from $360 in the first quarter of 1994 to $509
in 1995, a 41% increase. Net sales to outside customers by the Company's paper
mill increased 46% in the first quarter of 1995 compared to the same period
last year on a volume increase of 15%. The Company's container revenues were
33% higher in 1995 than the first quarter of 1994 on a volume decrease of 1.7%.
Timber sales to outside customers decreased 34% on a volume decline of 10% as
more of the Company's timber production was required by the mill.
Mill production per day rose by 6% and this increased productivity was a major
factor in a 1% reduction in cost per ton.
Transportation
% Increase
1995 1994 (Decrease)
Operating Revenue 43,176 43,136 0.1
Operating Expenses 31,666 31,782 (0.4)
Selling, General and Administrative
Expenses 4,325 3,825 13.1
Operating Profit 7,185 7,529 (4.6)
-7-
Operating results for the transportation segment were consistent with the
prior year. Revenues for the Florida East Coast Railway Company (FEC)
decreased by .9% compared to the first quarter of 1994 while Apalachicola
Northern Railroad Company (ANRR) revenues increased by 13.2%, primarily due
to an increase in coal shipments. Operating expenses at FEC declined .8% and
the ANRR increased 9.2%. Selling, general and administrative expenses rose
11.8% at FEC and 45.3% ($65,939) at ANRR.
Sugar
% Increase
1995 1994 (Decrease)
Net Sales 12,335 13,370 (7.7)
Cost of Sales 8,366 10,809 (22.6)
Selling, General and Administrative
Expenses 1,470 1,059 38.8
Operating Profit 2,499 1,502 66.4
The sugar segment experienced a 10.8% volume reduction in the first quarter of
1995 compared to 1994. The selling price rose 3.5%. Increased productivity
drove down the cost per ton of sugar by 11.3%. The segment produced 28.3%
more sugar in 1995 than 1994 with an 18.4% increase in the amount of cane
ground and an 8.5% increase in the yield. The increase in selling, general
and administrative expenses is primarily due to the Everglades Agricultural
Privilege Tax which was enacted in the second quarter of 1994 and not reflected
in the first quarter of 1994.
Communications
% Increase
1995 1994 (Decrease)
Operating Revenue 7,799 7,404 5.3
Operating Expenses 4,920 4,701 4.7
Selling, General and Administrative
Expenses 1,148 1,051 9.2
Operating Profit 1,731 1,652 4.8
Operating revenues increased in the first quarter of 1995 compared to 1994
largely due to adjustments in the interstate access charge pooling process.
All three local exchange companies began their cable maintenance earlier in
1995 than 1994 resulting in increased operating expenses for the first quarter.
-8-
Real Estate
% Increase
1995 1994 (Decrease)
Net Sales and Operating Revenue 6,011 19,482 (69.2)
Cost of Sales and Operating Revenue 4,459 5,242 (14.9)
Selling, General and Administrative
Expenses 564 538 4.8
Operating Profit 988 13,702 (92.8)
In the first quarter of 1994, realty property sales of $14.6 million ($13.7
million by Gran Central, Florida East Coast Industries, Inc. real estate
subsidiary, and $.9 million by the Company) occurred which were not repeated
in the first quarter of 1995. Rent and other income increased by $1.2 million
in 1995 compared to the same period in 1994. Gran Central's cost of sales
decreased by 9.4% and Southwood PropertiesO, the Company's real estate
division, decreased by 1.3%. Selling, general and administrative expenses
increased 9.0% at Gran Central and declined 6.7% at Southwood Properties.
Other Income increased $1.5 million in the first quarter of 1995 compared to
1994. Interest income increased by $1.1 million reflecting increased
investment and higher rates.
Net Income increased $13.4 million (163.7%) during the first quarter of 1995
from the same period in 1994. Earnings per share increased $0.44 to $0.71.
Financial Position
The Company's financial position remains strong. Current assets rose to
$309.1 million, an $8.1 million increase from year end. Increases in current
liabilities of $12.6 million caused the current ratio to drop from 3.1 at year
end to 2.8 at the end of the first quarter.
The Company increased its investment in marketable securities by $31.2 million
over year end. Net property, plant and equipment increased by $12.7 million,
largely in Florida East Coast Industries, Inc. Deferred income taxes grew by
$8.3 million, due to the tax effect of an increase in the unrealized gains on
debt and marketable equity securities and a decrease in alternative minimum
tax credits.
Stockholders' equity at March 31, 1995 was $31.49 per share, an increase of
$0.77 from December 31, 1994.
