The St. Joe Company Reports Second Quarter 2016 Results
WATERSOUND, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--August 3, 2016--The St. Joe Company (NYSE: JOE) (the “Company”) today announced Net Income for the second quarter of 2016 of $1.8 million, or $0.02 per share, compared with Net Loss of $(0.2) million, or $(0.00) per share, for the second quarter of 2015. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company reported Net Income of $10.5 million, or $0.14 per share compared to Net Loss of $(2.0) million, or $(0.02) per share for the same period last year.
Second Quarter highlights include:
- Total revenue for the quarter was $29.5 million as compared to $37.8 million in the second quarter of 2015 due to a decrease in real estate sales and in timber sales partially offset by an increase in resorts and leisure revenue and in leasing revenue. The Company’s second quarter 2016 revenue was generated from $6.7 million of real estate sales, $19.8 million from resorts and leisure operations, $2.3 million from leasing operations and $0.7 million from timber sales.
- Real estate sales decreased to $6.7 million in the second quarter of 2016 as compared to $14.0 million in the second quarter of 2015. Real estate sales in the second quarter of 2016 were comprised of $5.8 million in residential real estate sales and $0.9 million in rural land sales. The second quarter of 2015 included a $5.3 million rural land sale, $4.7 million in commercial real estate sales and $4.0 million in residential real estate sales. Real estate sales vary significantly from period to period.
- Resorts and leisure revenue increased approximately $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2016 to $19.8 million as compared to the second quarter of 2015. The increase during the second quarter of 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015 was primarily related to increased average room rates at both the WaterColor Inn and in the vacation rental program as well as an increase in membership revenue from the St. Joe Club & Resorts private membership club.
- As of June 30, 2016, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and investments of $399.8 million, as compared to $394.9 million as of March 31, 2016, an increase of $4.9 million. The increase was a result of net receipts from operations and other activities.
- Other operating and corporate expenses declined by $2.0 million in the second quarter of 2016 as compared to the same time last year. The decrease was primarily due to employee related costs.
Jorge Gonzalez, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are pleased with our financial results through the first six months of the year. We believe we are making progress at creating a solid foundation for growth and value while maintaining a low fixed expense structure.”
