Operating Income in Third Quarter of Fiscal Year 2024 was $9.0 Million, Compared to Operating Loss of $1.5 Million in Prior Year

Avocado Revenues Grew Over 300% to $13.9 Million in Third Quarter of Fiscal Year 2024

Company Significantly Increases Avocado Volume Guidance for Fiscal Year 2024

Strategic Alternatives Exploration to Maximize Stockholder Value Continues to Progress

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 third quarter ended July 31, 2024.

Management Comments

Harold Edwards, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated, “We are extremely pleased with the overall performance of our business this quarter, in particular our avocados experienced robust demand and favorable pricing dynamics. This strong market response positions us to achieve record avocado revenue this fiscal year. Further, we anticipate reaching a milestone as our avocado segment is expected to contribute approximately four million to five million pounds in our seasonably softer fourth quarter for the first time in our company’s history. These results validate our strategic decision to significantly expand our avocado production by 1,000 acres over the next three years. In addition to our agricultural success, our real estate development joint venture, Harvest at Limoneira (“Harvest”), has seen increased momentum in the current lower interest rate environment with steady home sales. The expansion of avocado production, coupled with the ongoing expected earnings from Harvest, reinforces our confidence in achieving strong EBITDA growth into the future. The success across multiple segments of our business underscores our commitment to sustainable growth and value creation for our stockholders.”

Mr. Edwards continued, “Since announcing our exploration of strategic alternatives, we have received interest and are diligently working with our advisors at Stephens, Inc to engage with these and other parties to evaluate potential opportunities. We remain committed to thoroughly exploring all options to maximize stockholder value and will provide updates if the board of directors find that further disclosure is necessary or advisable.”

Fiscal Year 2024 Third Quarter Results

For the third quarter of fiscal year 2024, total net revenue was $63.3 million, compared to total net revenue of $52.5 million in the third quarter of the previous fiscal year. Agribusiness revenue was $61.8 million, compared to $51.1 million in the third quarter of last fiscal year. Other operations revenue was $1.5 million, compared to $1.4 million in the third quarter of last fiscal year.

Agribusiness revenue in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 includes $25.8 million in fresh packed lemon sales, compared to $24.2 million of fresh packed lemon sales during the same period of fiscal year 2023. Approximately 1,400,000 cartons of U.S. packed fresh lemons were sold in aggregate during the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 at a $18.43 average price per carton, compared to approximately 1,352,000 cartons sold at a $17.92 average price per carton during the third quarter of fiscal year 2023. Brokered lemons and other lemon sales were $9.8 million and $8.0 million, in the third quarter of fiscal years 2024 and 2023, respectively.

The Company recognized $13.9 million of avocado revenue in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024, compared to $3.5 million in the third quarter of last fiscal year. Approximately 8,855,000 pounds of avocados were sold in aggregate during the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 at a $1.57 average price per pound, compared to approximately 2,822,000 pounds sold at a $0.99 average price per pound during the third quarter of fiscal year 2023.

The Company recognized $1.2 million of orange revenue in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024, compared to $1.3 million in the same period of fiscal year 2023. Approximately 43,000 cartons of oranges were sold during the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 at a $26.98 average price per carton, compared to approximately 71,000 cartons sold at a $18.17 average price per carton during the third quarter of fiscal year 2023.

Farm management revenues were $3.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024, compared to $5.4 million in the same period of fiscal year 2023 on similar acreage. The decrease in farm management revenues in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 was primarily due to farm management decisions based on weather and crop conditions.

Total costs and expenses in the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 were $54.3 million, compared to $54.0 million in the third quarter of last fiscal year.

Operating income for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 was $9.0 million, compared to operating loss of $1.5 million in the third quarter of the previous fiscal year.

Fiscal Year 2024 First Nine Months Results

For the nine months ended July 31, 2024, total net revenue was $147.6 million, compared to $138.5 million for the same period in fiscal year 2023. The increase was primarily due to increased lemons and avocados agribusiness revenues, partially offset by decreased specialty citrus and other crops agribusiness revenues. Operating loss for the first nine months of fiscal year 2024 was $3.4 million, compared to operating income of $20.5 million in the same period last fiscal year primarily due to net gain on disposal of assets. Net income applicable to common stock, after preferred dividends, was $9.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal year 2024, compared to $12.5 million in the same period last fiscal year. Net income per diluted share for the first nine months of fiscal year 2024 was $0.51, compared to net income per diluted share of $0.69 in the same period of fiscal year 2023.

For the first nine months of fiscal year 2024, adjusted net income for diluted EPS was $12.9 million compared to adjusted net loss for diluted EPS of $5.0 million for the same period in fiscal year 2023. In the first nine months of fiscal year 2024, adjusted net income per diluted share was $0.70 compared to adjusted net loss per diluted share of $0.28 for the same period in fiscal year 2023, based on approximately 18.3 million and 17.6 million, respectively, adjusted weighted average diluted common shares outstanding.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

During the nine months ended July 31, 2024, net cash provided by operating activities was $11.3 million, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $12.6 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year. Net cash used in investing activities was $6.7 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2024, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $92.4 million in the same period last fiscal year. For the nine months ended July 31, 2024, net cash used in financing activities was $7.1 million, compared to $69.6 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 July 31, 2024, was $40.0 million, compared to $40.6 million at the end of fiscal year 2023. Debt levels as of July 31, 2024, less $1.1 million of cash on hand, resulted in a net debt position of $39.6 million at quarter end. However, as previously noted, the Company’s 50%/50% real estate development joint venture with The Lewis Group of Companies (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 July 31, 2024, the joint venture had $69.9 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 closed since the project’s inception. In May 2024, the Company announced that the Santa Paula City Council 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 now expects avocado volumes to be in the range of 14.5 million to 15.5 million pounds for fiscal year 2024, compared to previous guidance of 9.0 million to 10.0 million pounds, a more than 50% increase compared to prior guidance. We expect to complete the avocado harvest in the fourth quarter with approximately 4.0 million to 5.0 million pounds remaining.

The Company now expects fresh lemon volumes to be in the range of 4.5 million to 5.0 million cartons for fiscal year 2024, compared to previous guidance of 5.0 million to 5.5 million cartons, due to lower fresh utilization from late season rains. The lemon harvest for fiscal year 2024 is approximately 85% complete.

The Company continues to expect to receive total future proceeds of $180 million from Harvest, LLCB II, LLC and East Area II spread out over the next seven fiscal years.

The Company has 600 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, we continue to see a strong EBITDA outlook that is underpinned by plans to 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 fiscal year 2025 avocado volume to be lower compared to fiscal year 2024 due to the alternate bearing nature of avocado trees and the Company believes avocado pricing may be slightly lower compared to the current year pricing environment due to international circumstances. 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, impairment of intangible asset, (gain) loss 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):
