The Company may be involved in litigation on a number of matters and is subject to certain claims which arise in the normal course of business. The Company has retained certain self-insurance risks with respect to losses for third party liability and property damage. In the opinion of management, none of these matters are expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company is subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations. The Company believes that the ultimate disposition of currently known environmental matters will not have a material effect on its financial position, liquidity, or operations. The Company can give no assurance that previous environmental studies with respect to its properties have revealed all potential environmental contaminants; that any previous owner, occupant or tenant did not create any material environmental condition not known to the Company; that the current environmental condition of the properties will not be affected by tenants and occupants, by the condition of nearby properties, or by unrelated third parties; and that changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations or their interpretation will not result in additional environmental liability to the Company.
As of March 31, 2026, there was $410,000 outstanding under letters of credit. The letters of credit were issued to guarantee certain obligations to state agencies related to real estate development.
The Company and MidAtlantic Realty Partners (MRP) provided a guaranty for the interest carry cost of the $110 million loan on the Bryant Street Partnerships issued in December 2023. The Company and MRP have a side agreement limiting the Company’s guarantee to its proportionate ownership. The value of the guarantee was calculated at $1.5 million based on the present value of our assumption of 0.8% interest savings over the anticipated 36-month term. This amount is included as part of the Company’s investment basis and is amortized to expense over the 36 months. The Company will evaluate the guarantee liability based upon the success of the project and assuming no payments are made under the guarantee, the Company will have a gain of $1.5 million when the loan is paid in full.
On October 21, 2025 in conjunction with the Altman Logistics platform acquisition, FRP Guaranty, LLC (wholly owned by the Company) provided repayment, construction completion, and cost overrun guarantees to the construction lenders at Lakeland, Davie, Delray, Hamilton and Parsippany and the joint venture partners at Delray, Hamilton and Parsippany. As of March 31, 2026, the maximum amount of future payments that FRP Guaranty, LLC could be required to make under its repayment guarantees is $25.0 million on aggregate joint venture indebtedness of $121.7 million. FRP Guaranty, LLC would be required to perform on the guarantees upon a default on a construction loan by a joint venture or to ensure the completion of the construction of a joint venture project. As of March 31, 2026, FRP Guaranty, LLC has been funded with $10.0 million in cash and cash equivalents. The Company believes that the fair values of these guarantees are minimal based on various factors, including the collateral values securing the loans, the status of the applicable development projects, and current expectations regarding the probability of payments being made pursuant to such guarantees.
In November 2023, the Central Florida Expressway Authority (CFX) used its eminent domain power to take title to approximately 27.6 acres from the southern boundary of a parcel of the Company’s approximately 1,196-acre Lake Louisa property that is leased to Cemex. As required by Florida law, CFX deposited $2,582,000 into the registry of the Court, representing CFX’s good faith estimate of the value of the condemned property. As the Company’s tenant, Cemex is claiming a portion of the funds ultimately paid by CFX as business damages. The Company is litigating with CFX over the value of the condemned property. The condemnation proceeding is not expected to impact the lease with Cemex. Management believes that the Company is entitled to compensation in excess of the carrying value of the property. Under the applicable accounting guidance, the Company has not recognized any gain related to this matter in the consolidated financial statements. The ultimate amount and timing of any gain will depend on the final settlement with CFX and Cemex. The Company will recognize the transactions in the period in which the compensation is realized or realizable.
