Description of Business and Basis of Presentation | Note 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation Description of Business Alico, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (collectively, “Alico”, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”), is a Florida agribusiness and land management company owning approximately 51,300 acres of land and approximately 46,900 acres of mineral rights throughout Florida. Alico holds these mineral rights on substantially all its owned acres, with additional mineral rights on other acres. The Company manages its land based upon its primary usage, and reviews its performance based upon two primary classifications: (i) Alico Citrus and (ii) Land Management and Other Operations. Financial results are presented based upon these two business segments. On January 6, 2025, the Company announced a Strategic Transformation (the “Strategic Transformation”) in the Company’s business focus, to wind down its Alico Citrus division, which holds the Company’s citrus production operations, to focus on a long-term diversified land usage and real estate development strategy. Due to increasing financial challenges from citrus greening disease and environmental factors for many seasons, the Company has decided to not spend further material capital on its citrus operations and to wind down substantially all of its Citrus’ primary operations after completion of the current harvest in April 2025. In connection with this Strategic Transformation, on January 3, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved a reduction in the Company’s current workforce by up to 172 employees, which occurred effective on or about January 6, 2025 with respect to up to 135 employees, and will be effective between April 1, 2025 and May 30, 2025 with respect to up to 37 employees. The Board’s decision is part of cost-reduction initiatives aimed at providing investors with a greater return on capital that includes the benefits and stability of a conventional agriculture investment, with the optionality that comes with active land management. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which are referred to herein as the “Financial Statements”, of Alico have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, these Financial Statements do not include all of the disclosures required for complete annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). As such, these Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2024, as filed with the SEC on December 2, 2024 (the “2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K”). Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. However, in the opinion of management, such Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP applicable to interim periods. Seasonality The Company has historically been primarily engaged in the production of fruit for sale to citrus markets, which is of a seasonal nature, and subject to the influence of natural phenomena and wide price fluctuations. As a result, the second and third quarters of Alico’s fiscal year produce most of the Company’s annual revenue. However, due to lower production in the prior year, more of the citrus crop was harvested in the first and second quarters of the fiscal year. Working capital requirements are typically greater in the first and fourth quarters of the fiscal year, coinciding with harvesting cycles; however, as the harvest cycles have moved, the Company’s working capital requirements are now greater in the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year. Because of the seasonality of the business, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full fiscal year. In light of the Strategic Transformation, we have decided not to allocate additional material capital to our citrus operations. As a result, we expect these seasonal patterns to diminish as we wind down those operations. Stock Repurchase Program On March 25, 2025, the Board of Directors of Alico, Inc. approved a stock repurchase program. The stock repurchase program authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $50.0 million of the Company’s common stock, par value $1.00 (“Common Stock”) and will expire on April 1, 2028, subject to market conditions and other factors. Repurchases under the program may be made in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, with the amount and timing of repurchases depending on market conditions and corporate needs. Open market repurchases will be structured to occur within the pricing and volume requirements of Rule 10b-18. The Company may also, from time to time, enter into Rule 10b5-1 plans to facilitate repurchases of its shares under this authorization. This program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of Common Stock and the program may be extended, modified, suspended or discontinued at any time at the Company’s discretion.
