Harvest at Limoneira Approved for an Additional 550 Entitled Lots from 1,500 to 2,050

Company Increases Expected Proceeds from Harvest at Limoneira by 46% to $180 Million

Company Raises Avocado Volume Guidance for Fiscal Year 2024

SANTA PAULA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun. 6, 2024-- Limoneira Company (the “Company” or “Limoneira”) (Nasdaq: LMNR), a diversified citrus growing, packing, selling and marketing company with related agribusiness activities and real estate development operations, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended April 30, 2024.

Management Comments

Harold Edwards, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated, “We recently achieved two significant milestones related to Harvest at Limoneira (“Harvest”), our real estate development joint venture with the Lewis Group of Companies (“Lewis”). First, the joint venture closed an additional 554 homesites, completing Phase 2 of the project. Second, the Santa Paula City Council approved the joint venture’s proposal to increase the total number of entitled lots for the project by 550, or 37%, unlocking further value creation opportunities. Based on these events and continued increase in the value of land associated with this project, we have increased our cash flow projections from the joint venture by 46% and now expect to receive $180 million in total future proceeds spread out over the next seven years, with approximately $18 million expected in fiscal year 2024. Our non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA of $16.6 million for the second quarter represents more than double that of the prior year period, highlighting the continued momentum in Harvest. Additionally, as part of enhancing stockholder value, we plan to expand our avocado plantings by 1,000 acres over the next three years to 2,000 acres, with 223 acres planted in fiscal year 2024. We expect earnings from Harvest and this planned expansion of our avocado production will increase our longer-term non-GAAP EBITDA to a range of $45 million to $55 million by fiscal year 2030, compared to the previous target of $30 million.”

Fiscal Year 2024 Second Quarter Results

For the second quarter of fiscal year 2024, total net revenue was $44.6 million, compared to total net revenue of $48.1 million in the second quarter of the previous fiscal year. Agribusiness revenue was $43.3 million, compared to $46.7 million in the second quarter of last fiscal year. Other operations revenue was $1.3 million, compared to $1.4 million in the second quarter of last fiscal year.

Agribusiness revenue in the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 includes $25.8 million in fresh packed lemon sales, compared to $26.6 million of fresh packed lemon sales during the same period of fiscal year 2023. Approximately 1,446,000 cartons of U.S. packed fresh lemons were sold in aggregate during the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 at a $17.85 average price per carton, compared to approximately 1,547,000 cartons sold at a $17.23 average price per carton during the second quarter of fiscal year 2023. Brokered lemons and other lemon sales were $3.8 million and $2.5 million, in the second quarter of fiscal years 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The Company recognized $2.3 million of avocado revenue in the second quarter of fiscal year 2024, compared to $3.6 million in the second quarter of last fiscal year. Avocado revenues in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 included legal settlement proceeds of $2.4 million allocated to avocados. Approximately 1,595,000 pounds of avocados were sold in aggregate during the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 at a $1.47 average price per pound, compared to approximately 941,000 pounds sold at a $1.30 average price per pound during the second quarter of fiscal year 2023.

Approximately 66,000 cartons of oranges were sold during the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 at a $17.58 average price per carton, compared to approximately 88,000 cartons sold at a $15.72 average price per carton during the second quarter of fiscal year 2023.

Specialty citrus and other crops revenue was $0.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal year 2024, compared to $1.0 million in the same period of fiscal year 2023.

Farm management revenues were $2.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2024, compared to $1.4 million in the same period of fiscal year 2023.

Total costs and expenses in the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 were $49.3 million, compared to $51.9 million in the second quarter of last fiscal year. The decrease of $2.7 million was primarily related to the 2023 Cadiz Ranch asset disposal, partially offset by increases in agribusiness costs and expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses.

Operating loss for the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 was $4.7 million, compared to operating loss of $3.9 million in the second quarter of the previous fiscal year.

Net income applicable to common stock, after preferred dividends, for the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 was $6.4 million, compared to net loss applicable to common stock of $1.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023.

Fiscal Year 2024 First Six Months Results

For the six months ended April 30, 2024, total net revenue was $84.3 million, compared to $86.0 million for the same period in fiscal year 2023. The decrease was primarily due to decreased lemons and avocados agribusiness revenues, partially offset by increased farm management agribusiness revenues. Operating loss for the first six months of fiscal year 2024 was $12.4 million, compared to operating income of $22.0 million in the same period last fiscal year. Net income applicable to common stock, after preferred dividends, was $2.7 million for the first six months of fiscal year 2024, compared to $13.8 million in the same period last fiscal year. Net income per diluted share for the first six months of fiscal year 2024 was $0.15, compared to net income per diluted share of $0.75 in the same period of fiscal year 2023.

For the first six months of fiscal year 2024, adjusted net income for diluted EPS was $4.8 million compared to adjusted net loss for diluted EPS of $5.3 million for the same period in fiscal year 2023. In the first six months of fiscal year 2024, adjusted net income per diluted share was $0.27 compared to adjusted net loss per diluted share of $0.30 for the same period in fiscal year 2023, based on approximately 17.7 million and 17.6 million, respectively, adjusted weighted average diluted common shares outstanding.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

For the first half of fiscal year 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $13.3 million, compared to $18.4 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year. Net cash used in investing activities was $2.9 million for the first half of fiscal year 2024, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $95.4 million in the same period last fiscal year. For the first half of fiscal year 2024, net cash provided by financing activities was $14.0 million, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $68.0 million in the prior fiscal year.

On January 31, 2023, the Company sold its Northern Properties, which resulted in total net proceeds of $98.4 million. The proceeds were used to pay down all the Company’s domestic debt except the AgWest Farm Credit $40.0 million non-revolving line of credit with an interest rate that is fixed at 3.57% through July 1, 2025. Long-term debt as of April 30, 2024, was $59.5 million, compared to $40.6 million at the end of fiscal year 2023. Debt levels as of April 30, 2024, less $1.4 million of cash on hand, resulted in a net debt position of $58.7 million at quarter end. However, as previously noted, the Company’s 50%/50% real estate development joint venture with Lewis closed an additional 554 residential homesites in April 2024. The joint venture distributed $30.0 million in June 2024, of which Limoneira received $15.0 million. As of April 30, 2024, the joint venture had $102.1 million of unaudited cash and cash equivalents on hand.

Real Estate Development and Property Sales

The Company’s joint venture with Lewis for the residential development of its Harvest real estate development project was previously approved for approximately 1,500 total residential units built and sold over the life of the project. In October 2023, the joint venture closed on lot sales representing 121 residential units, thus completing the sell-out of Phase 1 of the development. In April 2024, the joint venture closed on lot sales representing 554 residential units, thus completing the sell-out of Phase 2 of the development. Total lot sales of 1,261 residential units have closed since the project’s inception. In May 2024, the Company announced that the Santa Paula City Council has approved the proposal brought forward by the joint venture to increase the total number of residential units for the project from 1,500 to 2,050 units. The 550-unit increase will provide 250 additional single family for-sale homesites within Phase 3 of Harvest. A separate joint venture with Lewis plans to construct 300 multi-family rental homes on a mixed-use portion of the project.

Updated Guidance

The Company continues to expect fresh lemon volumes to be in the range of 5.0 million to 5.5 million cartons for fiscal year 2024.

The Company now expects avocado volumes to be in the range of 9.0 million to 10.0 million pounds for fiscal year 2024, compared to previous guidance of 7.0 million to 8.0 million pounds.

Due to the additional lots and the increased value of the overall projects, the Company now expects to receive total future proceeds of $180 million, a 46% increase from previous expectation, from Harvest at Limoneira, LLCB II and East Area II spread out over the next seven fiscal years.

The Company has 700 acres of non-bearing lemons and avocados estimated to become full bearing over the next four to five years, which the Company expects will enable strong organic growth in the coming years. Additionally, the Company plans to expand its plantings of avocados over the next three years and expects to have an increase in third-party grower fruit. The foregoing describes organic growth opportunities and does not include potential acquisition opportunities for the Company in its highly fragmented industry.

Looking ahead, the Company is raising its outlook for non-GAAP EBITDA accretion to a range of $45 million to $55 million by fiscal year 2030, up from its previous target of $30 million. This increase is underpinned by plans to significantly expand avocado production by 1,000 acres over the next three years to capitalize on robust consumer demand trends. During this transition, the Company expects FY 2025 and FY 2026 operational results to be similar to FY 2024. These operational results do not take into account expected additional earnings from Harvest at Limoneira.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Due to significant depreciable assets associated with the nature of the Company's operations and interest costs associated with our capital structure, management believes that earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and adjusted EBITDA, which excludes stock-based compensation, pension settlement cost, loss (gain) on disposal of assets, net, cash bonus related to sale of assets, gain on legal settlement and severance benefits are important measures to evaluate our results of operations between periods on a more comparable basis. Such measurements are not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and should not be construed as an alternative to reported results determined in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP information provided is unique to the Company and may not be consistent with methodologies used by other companies.

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are summarized and reconciled to net income (loss) attributable to Limoneira Company, which management considers to be the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, as follows (in thousands):
