NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

(UNAUDITED)

 

1.                                      Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Maui Land & Pineapple Company, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information that are consistent in all material respects with those applied in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 promulgated by Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes to financial statements required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. The financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

 

LIQUIDITY

 

At September 30, 2010, the Company had $1.8 million in cash and cash equivalents.  The Company had negative cash flows from operations of $5.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Reflected in the negative cash flow from operations was $5.5 million of income taxes refunded in the quarter ended March 31, 2010. The Company had an excess of current liabilities over current assets of $70.6 million and had a stockholders’ deficiency of $23.5 million at September 30, 2010.

 

Current liabilities at September 30, 2010 include $42.8 million of revolving lines of credit under two agreements that expire in March 2011. Both of the revolving lines of credit have financial covenants requiring among other things, a minimum of $8 million in liquidity and a limitation on new indebtedness.  Failure to satisfy the minimum liquidity covenants or to otherwise default under one credit agreement could result in a default under both credit agreements resulting in all outstanding borrowings becoming immediately due and payable.  The Company has pledged a significant portion of its real estate holdings as security for borrowings under these credit facilities.

 

The Company’s cash outlook for the next twelve months and its ability to make the required debt repayments in March 2011 and to continue to meet its financial covenants is highly dependent on selling certain real estate assets in a difficult market and refinancing its existing debt. If the Company is unable to meet its financial covenants resulting in the borrowings becoming immediately due, or is unable to restructure its credit agreements to extend the maturity date beyond March 2011, the Company would not have sufficient liquidity to repay such outstanding borrowings. In addition, the Company is subject to several commitments and contingencies that could negatively impact its future cash flows, including commitments related to its investment in Kapalua Bay Holdings, LLC (Bay Holdings), its ongoing dispute with the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA), a legal dispute with a former grower and an U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) matter related to the Company’s discontinued agricultural operations, and funding requirements related to the Company’s defined benefit pension plans.  These matters are further described in Notes 13 and 17.

 

The aforementioned circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully achieve its initiatives discussed below in order to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

In response to these circumstances, the Company continues to undertake several financial and strategic initiatives to reduce cash commitments, to generate cash flow from a variety of sources and to further reduce its debt, including the sale of several real estate assets.  The Company is actively working with its lenders to extend the maturity dates and modify other terms of its credit agreements.

 

In July 2010, the Company concluded a shareholder rights offering of 10,389,610 shares of common stock, pursuant to which it received gross proceeds of $40 million.  On August 3, 2010, the Company completed the repurchase of all $40 million of its outstanding senior secured convertible notes for $35.2 million, utilizing proceeds from the rights offering (see Note 6).

On September 30, 2010, the Company sold the Kapalua Bay Golf Course (Bay Course) and the adjacent maintenance facility for $24.1 million in cash.  The Company utilized the proceeds from the sale to pay down its revolving credit facilities by $20 million (see Notes 5 and 10).

 

In the first nine months of 2010, the Company also concluded the sales of a 128-acre parcel and a two-acre parcel that included its former administrative office building, resulting in total cash proceeds, net of selling costs, of $3.3 million.

 

2.                                      Use of Estimates

 

The Company’s reports for interim periods utilize numerous estimates of general and administrative expenses and other costs for the full year. Future actual amounts may differ from the estimates. Amounts in the interim reports are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares from share-based compensation arrangements had been issued.

 

Potentially dilutive shares arise from non-qualified stock options to purchase common stock, non-vested restricted stock, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, common stock issuable upon assumed conversion of convertible debt. The treasury stock method is applied to determine the number of potentially dilutive shares for non-vested restricted stock and stock options assuming that the shares of non-vested restricted stock are issued for an amount based on the grant date market price of the shares and that the outstanding stock options are exercised. Convertible debt was assumed to be converted by applying the if-converted method. These amounts were excluded for all periods presented because the effect would be anti-dilutive.

In November 2007, the Company entered into a $90 million revolving line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank secured by approximately 1,437 acres of the Company’s West Maui land. All outstanding principal and accrued interest was scheduled to be due on November 13, 2009. In March 2009, the Company sold the Plantation Golf Course (PGC) for $50 million (see Note 10), which was included in the collateral securing the line of credit agreement. In consideration for release of the PGC from the collateral, $45 million of the sales proceeds were applied to partially repay outstanding borrowings and the credit limit under this facility was reduced to $45 million. In conjunction with the PGC sale, the line of credit agreement was amended to extend the maturity date to March 13, 2010.

 

In October 2009, the line of credit agreement was amended and restated. The agreement principally increased the secured revolving line of credit from $45 million to $50 million, extended the maturity date of the credit agreement from March 2010 to March 2011, and re-set financial covenants. As amended, the agreement provided that interest on loan draws accrue interest based on the LIBOR market index or applicable LIBOR rate, plus 4.25%, subject to a minimum interest rate of 5.5%. The financial covenants include a minimum liquidity, as defined in the agreement, of $8 million and maximum total liabilities of $240 million. There are no commitment fees on the unused portion of the revolving facility and interest is due monthly. The line of credit agreement contains various representations, warranties, affirmative, negative and financial covenants and events of default customary for financings of this type.

 

In September 2010, the Company sold the Bay Course (see Note 10), which was included in the collateral securing the line of credit.  On September 30, 2010, the Company utilized $20 million of proceeds from the sale to pay down the line of credit and reduce the facility commitment to $30 million.  As of September 30, 2010, the Company had $17.8 million outstanding or encumbered to secure letters of credit, and $11.1 million available under this line.

 

The Company also has a $25 million revolving loan that is secured by certain parcels of the Company’s real property on Maui that matures in March 2011 (as amended). Commitment fees of 0.40% are payable on the unused portion of the revolving facility.  The revolving loan was fully drawn at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.  The financial covenants include a minimum liquidity (as defined in the agreement) of $8 million, maximum total liabilities of $240 million, and limitations on capital expenditures. As amended, the agreement provides that interest on loan draws accrue interest based on the LIBOR market index or applicable LIBOR rate, plus 4.25%, subject to a minimum interest rate of 5.5%.

 

On July 28, 2008, the Company concluded a securities purchase agreement with certain institutional accredited investors and issued an aggregate of $40 million in principal amount of senior secured convertible notes (the “convertible notes”), bearing 5.875% interest per annum payable quarterly in cash in arrears.  The convertible notes were convertible, at any time following their issuance, into shares of common stock of the Company at an initial conversion price of $33.50 per share, which was equal to an initial conversion rate of 29.8507 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the convertible notes. On the third anniversary of the closing, each holder of the convertible notes had the right to require the Company to redeem all or any portion of such convertible note at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the convertible note being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

 

On August 3, 2010, the Company redeemed of all of the convertible notes for $35.2 million (see Note 6).  The Company’s carrying value of the convertible notes at the time of the redemption was $36.3 million.  Including lock-up fees paid to the holders, legal fees and other costs, the Company recorded a net loss of $617,000 on redemption of the convertible notes that is included in general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2010.

6.                                      Rights Offering

 

In June 2010, the Company initiated a shareholder rights offering for up to $40 million of its common stock with the intent to utilize the proceeds from the offering to repurchase up to all of its $40 million of outstanding senior secured convertible notes. In accordance with the terms of the offering, each shareholder received one non-transferable subscription right for each share of common stock owned as of the close of business on July 7, 2010, the record date for the rights offering. Each subscription right entitled the shareholder to purchase approximately 1.23 shares of common stock at a subscription price of $3.85 per share. Shareholders who fully exercised all of their initial subscription rights were entitled to purchase any unsubscribed shares at the same subscription price per share, on a pro rata basis, subject to the terms of the rights offering.

 

In conjunction with the rights offering, the Company entered into agreements with holders of all of the convertible notes to repurchase their notes at 88% of face value. The Company paid to these note holders a lock-up fee of 2% of face value in exchange for their agreement not to transfer their Notes for a 47-day period.

 

The rights offering concluded on July 29, 2010 and the Company received gross proceeds of $40 million and issued 10,389,610 shares of common stock. On August 3, 2010, the Company completed the repurchase of all $40 million of its outstanding senior secured convertible notes for $35.2 million.

 

7.                                      Discontinued Operations

 

The Company ceased all operations in its Agriculture segment as of the end of 2009. The Company’s Agriculture segment operating results and the loss on sale of the assets are reported as discontinued operations and prior period operating results have been reclassified for comparability.  Income from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 includes a credit of $2.3 million representing the gain from settlement of the Company’s post-retirement life insurance plans (Note 13).  Revenues and income (loss) before income taxes from discontinued operations were as follows:

8.                                      Impairment Charges

 

In June 2009, the Company wrote off $14.2 million of deferred development costs. Due to changing market conditions, several project development plans were written off because the projects as designed were no longer feasible. In addition, projects that were no longer compatible with the Company’s future real estate development expectations were abandoned and all related predevelopment costs were written off.  Also in June 2009, the Company recorded a charge of $1.9 million representing the adjustment of its real estate held for sale to its estimated fair value less cost to sell. The impairment charge, which related to the Company’s Kahului property on which improvements for the fresh fruit processing plant were constructed was reflected in discontinued operations.

 

9.                                      Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance to revise the approach to determine when a variable interest entity (VIE) should be consolidated.  The new consolidation model for VIEs considers whether the Company has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and shares in the significant risks and rewards of the entity.  The guidance requires companies to continually reassess VIEs to determine if consolidation is appropriate and provide additional disclosures.  The guidance was effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2010.  The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as the Company does not currently have any variable interest in VIEs.

 

In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance to improve disclosures about fair value measurements.  The Company must provide additional disclosures regarding transfers in and out of levels 1 and 2, and activity in level 3 fair value measurements.  The guidance also provides clarification regarding levels of disaggregation and disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements that fall in either level 2 or level 3.  The additional disclosure requirements were effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2010, except for the additional disclosures regarding the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, which will be effective January 1, 2011.

10.                               Assets Held for Sale and Real Estate Sales

 

At September 30, 2010, assets held for sale included the Company’s property in Kahului, Maui (25 acres).  These assets include the site of the Company’s former corporate office and the former agriculture processing facilities.  In April 2010, the Company sold the land and building that was previously its administrative offices in Kahului, Maui and recognized a $1.0 million gain on disposal of assets.

 

On September 30, 2010, the Company sold the land, improvements, structures and fixtures comprising the Bay Course and the adjacent maintenance facility for a total of $24.1 million in cash.  Concurrent with the sale the Company entered into an agreement to lease back the assets through March 31, 2011 (Lease), and due to certain construction work required by the leaseback arrangement and other continuing involvement, the sale has been accounted for as a financing transaction. Accordingly, the net proceeds received have been reflected as a current liability and no gain will be recognized until expiration of the Lease in March 2011.  Concurrent with the Bay Course sale transaction, the Company entered into an agreement (Golf Academy Lease) to lease to the buyer the property known as the Kapalua Golf Academy.  Under terms of the Golf Academy Lease the buyer will lease the Golf Academy training facility for an initial term of 10 years and be granted an easement for the approximately 25 acres adjacent to the training facility.

 

In March 2009, the Company sold the land, improvements, structures and fixtures comprising the PGC for $50 million in cash. Concurrent with the closing of the sale, the Company entered into an agreement (Ground Lease) to leaseback the PGC for an initial period of two years for an annual net rental payment of $4 million, payable monthly in advance. The Ground Lease required the Company to replace the irrigation system at the PGC at its own cost and expense, subject to a cap of $5 million. Because of the Company’s continuing involvement associated with the obligation to replace the irrigation system, the sale and leaseback of the PGC was accounted for as a financing transaction and, accordingly, the net proceeds received were recorded as a non-current liability in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

In August 2010, the irrigation system was substantially complete and the Company recognized $25.7 million of the deferred gain resulting from the PGC sale.  The remaining $2.0 million deferred gain (included in current liabilities) will be recognized ratably through the expiration of the Ground Lease in March 2011.

 

In March 2010, the Company sold approximately 128 acres of Upcountry Maui Land and recognized revenues of $1.7 million and pre-tax profit of $1.5 million.

 

In September 2009, the Company sold approximately 125 acres of land which included a portion of the master-planned Kapalua Mauka project and recognized revenues of $10.0 million and a pre-tax profit of $7.3 million.

 

11.                               Investments in Affiliates

 

As a result of the 2009 losses incurred by Bay Holdings, the Company’s carrying value of its investment in Bay Holdings and its $3.6 million loan due from Bay Holdings were written down to zero in 2009. The Company does not expect to recover any amounts from its investment in Bay Holdings, has recorded its estimated share of its completion and recourse guarantees for its potential estimated liability and it has no further obligation to fund losses. The Company will not recognize any additional equity in the earnings (losses) of Bay Holdings until the Company’s income attributable to Bay Holdings exceeds its accumulated losses.  The Company had made cash contributions to Bay Holdings of $53.2 million and an uncollateralized loan of $3.6 million that accrued interest at 16%.

 

In June 2009, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $21.3 million to reflect what management believed to be an impairment in the carrying value of its investment in Bay Holdings.  In September 2009, Bay Holdings recorded impairment charges totaling $208.8 million to reflect an impairment of the carrying value of its real estate inventories (whole and fractional condominium units) held for sale; and for the year 2009, Bay Holdings incurred total losses of $256.2 million.  The impairment charges reflected higher default rates on actual whole and fractional unit closings than were anticipated once construction was completed in June 2009, and also reflect a change in forecasted sales revenue on the unsold whole and fractional units that substantially reduces expected margins for those remaining units.

Construction of the six residential buildings comprised of 146 residences was complete by year-end 2009, however, the Company’s and the other members’ completion guaranty to the lenders will remain in place.  The Company has no funding commitments relating to Bay Holdings beyond this amount.

 

Pursuant to previous agreements, the Company has a commitment to purchase the spa, beach club improvements and the sundry store (the “Amenities”) from Bay Holdings at actual construction costs of approximately $35 million.  The Company is in discussions with the other members of Bay Holdings to negotiate the terms of the purchase agreement including the purchase price and payment terms, and is discussing whether the Company will even be required to purchase the Amenities.

 

In July 2006, Bay Holdings entered into a syndicated construction loan agreement with Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (Lehman) for the lesser of $370 million or 61.6% of the total projected cost of the project. Lehman’s commitment under the loan agreement was approximately 78% of the total. The loan was collateralized by the project assets, including the fee simple interest in the land owned by Bay Holdings, the adjacent spa parcel owned by the Company, and all of the sales contracts. On September 15, 2008, Lehman filed a petition under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court, and on February 11, 2009, Bay Holdings, Lehman, other lenders under the loan agreement, Swedbank and MH Kapalua Venture, LLC, an affiliate of Marriott, entered into an Amended and Restated Construction Loan Agreement. Pursuant to the amended loan agreement, the aggregate amount that Bay Holdings could borrow, including amounts previously funded under the amended loan agreement was approximately $354.5 million. In December 2009, Bay Holdings further amended the amended loan agreement to extend the maturity date of the principal payment of $45.7 million that was previously due in February 2010 to December 2010. Bay Holdings’ failure to repay amounts when due could result in all of its outstanding borrowings under the amended loan agreement becoming immediately due and payable. Bay Holdings’ ability to make the December 2010 debt payment as scheduled is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from fractional and whole unit closings. Bay Holdings is currently in negotiations with the lenders to restructure the terms of the amended loan agreement to provide available funding until the project is completely sold out.

12.                               Share-Based Compensation

 

The total compensation expense recognized for share-based compensation was $585,000 and $1,239,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $157,000 and $270,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. There was no tax benefit or expense related thereto for each period presented.  Subsequent to issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, management determined that the $97,000 and $445,000 previously disclosed as the total tax benefit related to share-based compensation for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 were incorrect.  This had no impact on previously reported tax benefit or expense or net loss. Accordingly, the total tax benefit has been restated to $-0- for these periods. Recognized stock compensation was reduced for estimated forfeitures prior to vesting primarily based on historical annual forfeiture rates of approximately 4.1% and 4.0%, as of September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Estimated forfeitures will be reassessed in subsequent periods and may change based on new facts and circumstances.

In January 2010, the Company terminated its postretirement life insurance plan and in February 2010, the Company terminated its postretirement medical coverage for non-bargaining retirees.  The curtailment and settlement gain from these events totaled $3,259,000 of which $2,334,000 is recorded in discontinued operations and $925,000 is included in general and administrative expense.

In 2010, minimum required contributions to the Company’s defined benefit pension plans are expected to be $2.0 million which have been fully paid. On June 25, 2010, the Preservation of Access to Care for Medicare Beneficiaries and Pension Relief Act of 2010 (the “2010 Relief Act”) was signed into law.  The Company’s plan contributions in 2010 include the deferral of pension plan contributions provided for by the 2010 Relief Act with regard to plan years 2009 and 2010.  The Company will be required to pay interest to the pension plans for all contributions that have been deferred. The Company expects to contribute $190,000 to its other post-retirement benefit plans in 2010.

 

In September 2010, the Company was advised by the Pension Benefits Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) that the cessation of its pineapple operations and the corresponding reduction in the active participant count for its Pension Plan for Bargaining Unit and Hourly Employees (Plan) has triggered the requirement that the Company provide security to the PBGC of approximately $5.2 million to support unfunded liabilities of the Plan or to make contributions to the Plan in excess of the minimum required amounts. Management is currently working with the PBGC to reach an agreement as to the amount of contributions that will be made or the form and amount of collateral that will be provided.

 

14.                               Fair Value Measurements

 

In its ongoing business operations, the Company’s primary market risk exposure with regard to financial instruments is due to changes in interest rates. The Company manages this risk by monitoring interest rates and future cash requirements and evaluating opportunities to refinance borrowings at various maturities and interest rates. The Company also utilizes interest rate swaps or other derivatives to reduce risks associated with changes in interest rates.

 

GAAP requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

 

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

 

In July 2008, the Company issued $40 million in senior secured notes that were convertible into the Company’s common stock. The conversion features related to the notes gave rise to a derivative liability carried at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized currently in interest expense.  In August 2010, the convertible notes were fully repaid (see Note 5).

 

In January 2008, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to reduce future cash flow variability for approximately two years on $55 million of variable rate debt. The effect of the agreements was to convert variable-rate interest, which was previously tied to 1-, 2-, 3- and 6-month LIBOR terms, to an average fixed-rate interest of approximately 2.9%, before applicable interest rate spreads. The transactions were not designated as hedges, and, accordingly, the gains and losses resulting from the change in fair value from these interest rate swaps were recognized currently in interest expense. The interest rate swap agreements expired in January 2010.

 

Information regarding assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis is as follows:

Except as indicated below, the carrying amount of the Company’s other financial instruments approximates fair value.

 

Long-Term Debt:

 

The fair value of long-term debt was estimated based on rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. The carrying amount of long-term debt (including current portion) at September 30, 2010 was $42,800,000, which approximated fair value.  The carrying amount of long-term debt at December 31, 2009 was $94,224,000 and the fair value was $94,312,000.

 

15.                               Income Taxes

 

The effective tax rate for 2010 and 2009 reflects the recognition of expected federal alternative minimum tax liabilities and interim period tax benefits and changes to the tax valuation allowance.

 

The Company uses a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits is recognized as interest expense and penalties are recognized in general and administrative expense in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations; and such amounts are included in income taxes payable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

 

At September 30, 2010, the Company had a liability of $984,000 for unrecognized tax benefits and interest thereon of $1.7 million. At September 30, 2010, $13.6 million of unrecognized tax benefits represented taxes on revenues for which the timing of the taxability is uncertain and the liability for such taxes has been recognized as deferred tax liabilities. The acceleration of the recognition of such income would not affect the estimated annual effective tax rate, but would accelerate the payment of income taxes to earlier periods and would result in additional interest expense.

17.                           Commitments and Contingencies

 

LPGA

 

The Company had a contractual obligation to the LPGA to sponsor an annual golf tournament for five years beginning in October 2008. The cost of such a tournament, including the production and the purse is significant and the Company was seeking a title sponsor to defray part of the cost. In June 2009, the Company announced that due to a lack of a title sponsor, it was unable to hold the 2009 LPGA event that was scheduled for October. This has resulted in a dispute with the LPGA, which can be resolved by mediation and if necessary by binding arbitration. By agreement between the parties, mediation has been suspended through November 2010 and, in March 2010 the Company paid $700,000 to the LPGA of which 50% will be applied towards sponsorship of an event if the parties are able to structure a future event. The Company is not able to estimate the losses that may be incurred if the Company is not able to further perform under the agreement and, accordingly, no additional provision for losses relating to this dispute has been recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements. An unfavorable judgment against the Company could have a material negative impact on the Company’s financial condition, including its ability to comply with its debt covenants.

 

Discontinued Operations

 

The Company has various unsettled contractual obligations with regard to its now terminated Agriculture segment operations and has recorded its best estimate of the potential loss of $3.5 million, which is included in other accrued liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2010.

 

On September 1, 2009, M. Yamamura and Sons, Inc. (Yamamura) filed a lawsuit against the Company, which alleged that the Company materially breached its planting agreement with Yamamura by not providing a planting schedule for 2009 and by asking Yamamura to cease planting pineapple for the Company until further notice. The lawsuit further alleged that the Company unilaterally restricted and impaired the value of Yamamura’s benefits under the Planting Agreement.  The Company is currently in settlement discussions with Yamamura and management has recorded a liability based on the expected settlement.

 

The Company is involved in a legal dispute with the EEOC concerning former Thai workers in the Company’s discontinued agriculture operations under a labor contact agreement with Global Horizons, Inc.  The Company is currently engaged in the initial stages of a conciliation process with the EEOC, and is presently unable to reasonably estimate the amount of probable liability, if any, related to this matter and, accordingly, has made no provision in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Pursuant to a 1999 settlement agreement with the County of Maui, the Company and several chemical manufacturers have agreed that until December 1, 2039, they will pay for 90% of the capital cost to install filtration systems in any future water wells, if the presence of a nematocide commonly known as DBCP exceeds specified levels, and for the ongoing maintenance and operating cost for filtration systems on existing and future wells. The Company estimated its share of the cost to operate and maintain the filtration systems for the existing wells and its share of the cost of a letter of credit used to secure its obligations, and recorded a liability of $250,000 in 1999. The Company recognized an additional liability and expense of $262,000 since 1999; and paid $368,000 for its share of the cost of the letter of credit securing its obligation and the capital costs to install a filtration system for an existing well. In March 2010, the Company was advised by the County of Maui that it intends to drill an exploratory water well on State of Hawaii lands that are directly above property that the Company previously used to plant pineapple.  Management believes that the potential for contamination is low because the proposed well site is above the land where agricultural chemicals were used.  Accordingly, a reserve for costs relating to the future well has not been recorded because the Company is not able to reasonably estimate the amount of its potential liability, if any.

Investments in Affiliates

 

Pursuant to a previous agreement, the Company was committed to purchase from Bay Holdings certain Amenities (see Note 11) upon their completion in 2009 at the actual construction cost of approximately $35 million. The Company is currently in discussions with the other members of Bay Holdings to negotiate the terms of the purchase agreement including the purchase and payment terms, and is discussing whether the Company will even be required to purchase the Amenities.

 

Pursuant to loan agreements of certain equity investments, the Company and the other members of the respective joint ventures have guaranteed to lenders each investor’s pro rata share of costs and losses that may be incurred by the lender as a result of the occurrence of specified triggering events. These guarantees do not include full payment of the loans. At September 30, 2010, the Company has recognized a liability for the estimated fair value of its obligations under these agreements; such amounts are not material.

 

Other

 

In connection with a Honolua Ridge Phase II lot sale in 2007, the Company deferred the recognition of $4.3 million of revenues because of contingencies that could result in the Company becoming obligated to repurchase the lot from the buyer. The buy-back provision will expire in November 2010.

 

In February 2010, the Company received notification from the Internal Revenue Service proposing changes to the Company’s employment tax withholdings. The Company currently does not expect the impact of the ultimate resolution of the matter to be material and has recorded an immaterial amount as the low end of the range of its estimated potential exposure.

 

In addition to the matters noted above, there are various other claims and legal actions pending against the Company. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the resolution of these other matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. The Company, as an investor in various affiliates (partnerships, limited liability companies), may under specific circumstances be called upon to make additional capital contributions.

 

18.                               Correction of Previously Issued Financial Statements

 

Subsequent to the issuance of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, the Company concluded that the net gain or loss from sale of real estate that had been used in its operations should have been reflected as gain or loss on disposal of assets in the operating cost and expense section of the statement of operations rather than as product revenues and cost of product revenues.  Also subsequent to the issuance of such financial statements, the Company concluded that cash flows from the sale of undeveloped land should have been reflected within the operating activities section of the cash flow statement rather than within the investing activities section because the sale of undeveloped land is considered a principal business activity of the Community Development segment. As a result, the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 have been corrected.  In addition, as discussed in Note 7, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 have been retrospectively adjusted to reclassify the operating results and loss on sale of assets of the discontinued Agriculture operations.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following discussion and analysis also gives effect to the correction discussed in Note 18 to the unaudited condensed financial statements. Depending upon the context, the terms the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us,” refers to either Maui Land & Pineapple Company, Inc. alone, or the Company and its subsidiaries.

 

Overview of the Company

 

Maui Land & Pineapple Company, Inc. is a Hawaii corporation and the successor to a business organized in 1909. We are a landholding company.  Our principal subsidiary is Kapalua Land Company, Ltd., the operator and developer of Kapalua Resort, a master-planned community in West Maui. Our reportable operating segments are Resort and Community Development.  In December 2009, all of our Agriculture segment operations were ceased and the segment is reported as discontinued operations.

 

20



Table of Contents

 

Resort

 

The Kapalua Resort is part of approximately 21,800 acres owned by us in West Maui, most of which remains as open space. The Kapalua Resort borders the ocean with five white sand beaches and includes The Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua hotel, the Ritz-Carlton Club and Residences at Kapalua Bay, the Kapalua Spa, eight residential subdivisions, two championship golf courses (The Bay and The Plantation), a ten-court tennis facility, several restaurants, and over 800 condominiums, single-family homes and residential lots. We operate Kapalua Resort’s two golf courses, the tennis facility, and several retail shops. Prior to mid-December 2009, our Resort operations also included a vacation rental program (The Kapalua Villas) and Kapalua Adventures, which is comprised of zip-lines stretching over scenic ravines in the West Maui mountains, a high ropes challenge course, a climbing wall and other activities. In December 2009, we entered into agreements to transfer the operations of The Kapalua Villas and Kapalua Adventures operations to third parties, from which we receive lease and license income.  In March 2009 we sold The Plantation and in September 2010 we sold The Bay golf courses.  We currently operate both courses under leaseback agreements with terms that expire at the end of March 2011.

 

Community Development

 

The Community Development segment includes our real estate entitlement, development, construction, sales, leasing, and conservation activities. Our projects are focused primarily on the luxury real estate market in and surrounding the Kapalua Resort and affordable and moderately priced residential and mixed use projects in West Maui and Upcountry Maui. This segment also includes the operations of Kapalua Realty Company, our general brokerage real estate company located within the Resort, and Kapalua Water Company and Kapalua Waste Treatment Company, our Public Utilities Commission-regulated water and sewage operations that service the Kapalua Resort and adjacent communities.

 

The Community Development segment also includes our 51% equity interest in Bay Holdings, the limited liability company that purchased the Kapalua Bay Hotel in August 2004 (Note 11 to condensed consolidated financial statements). Bay Holdings demolished the Kapalua Bay Hotel and the adjacent shops in order to develop new whole and fractional residential units, an ocean-side spa, and a beach club at that location. Construction was substantially complete in June 2009 and includes 84 whole ownership units and 744 fractional units of which 24 whole ownership and 144 fractional units closed escrow through the end of the third quarter of 2010.

 

We have approximately 1,600 acres of land in Maui that are at various stages in the land entitlement process. We must obtain appropriate entitlements for land that we intend to develop or use for construction. Securing proper land entitlements is a process that requires obtaining county, state and federal approvals, which can take several years to complete, if completed at all, and entails a variety of risks.

 

At the end of 2008, we postponed the start of construction of new development projects until economic conditions improve. However, we expect to continue engaging in planning, permitting and entitlement activities for our development projects, and we intend to proceed with construction and sales of the following projects, among others, when internal and external factors permit:

 

·                  Kapalua Mauka:  As presently planned, this project is comprised of 640 single and multi-family residential units and commercial components, five acres of commercial space and up to 27 holes of golf on a total of 800 acres.

 

·                  The Village at Kapalua:  This is the commercial component of the central area of the Kapalua Resort. It is planned to be built in two phases and will add approximately 30,000 square feet of new commercial/retail space to the Kapalua Resort. The Village will also include apartments, condominiums and other resort-related facilities. The first phase of the commercial component opened in 2006, which included approximately 12,000 square feet of commercial/retail space.

 

·                  Pulelehua:  This project is designed to be a new traditional community for working families in West Maui. It encompasses 312 acres and is currently planned to include 13 acres for an elementary school, 882 dwelling units, 91 acres of usable open space, and a traditional village center with a mix of residential and neighborhood-serving commercial uses. We are currently in the process of securing a hearing for the project with the Maui County Council Land Use Committee.

 

·                  Hali`imaile Town:  This project is contemplated to be a new town in Upcountry Maui, a holistic traditional community with agriculture, education, and sustainability as core design elements. Community design workshops were held to involve the Maui community in determining the vision for this community. The public approval process for any plan to develop this area is expected to take several years and will be subject to urban growth boundary determination by the County of Maui as it updates the County General Plan over the next year.

Discontinued Operations

 

The Agriculture segment primarily included growing, packing, and marketing of fresh pineapple. Our pineapple was sold under the brand names Maui Gold® and Hawaiian Gold™.  We also grew and marketed fresh organic pineapple. On December 31, 2009, we ceased all agriculture operations and we entered into agreements with an unrelated party that began to grow and market Maui Gold® pineapple as of January 1, 2010. We receive royalty payments based upon sales volume from such third party.

 

Current Developments

 

In the third quarter of 2010, our debt was reduced by $60 million as we accomplished the key initiatives that are further described below.  For the third quarter of 2010, we reported net income of $20.0 million and for the first nine months of 2010, we reported net income of $12.7 million; compared to net losses of $25.5 million and $92.9 million, for the same periods in 2009.  Cash used in operating activities for the first nine months of 2010 was $5.8 million.  In addition, these results reflect improved operating performance and overhead cost reductions, and $3.3 million of gains due to the termination of certain post-retirement benefits.

 

·                    In July 2010, our rights offering concluded and we received $40 million in gross subscription proceeds and issued 10,389,610 shares of common stock.

·                    In August 2010, we purchased all $40 million of our outstanding senior secured convertible notes for $35.2 million utilizing proceeds from the rights offering.

·                    In August 2010, our obligation to complete the irrigation system on the Plantation Golf Course was substantially complete and we recognized $25.7 million of the deferred gain from the March 2009 sale of this asset (Note 10 to condensed consolidated financial statements).

·                    In September 2010, we sold the Bay Course and adjacent maintenance facility for $24.1 million in cash.  In connection with this transaction we repaid $20 million on our revolving line of credit agreement.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of accounting estimates.

Consolidated revenues were $8.2 million for the third quarter of 2010 compared to $20.1 million for the third quarter of 2009; and $27.3 million for the first nine months of 2010 compared to $39.5 million for the first nine months of 2009.  Lower revenues for 2010 were primarily due to lower sales of real estate inventories and the absence of revenues from The Kapalua Villas and Kapalua Adventures as these operations were leased to third parties to operate in December 2009.

 

We reported net income of $20.0 million ($1.35 per share) for the third quarter of 2010 compared to a net loss of $25.5 million ($3.17 per share) for the third quarter of 2009. Net income for the third quarter of 2010 was primarily due to recognition of $25.7 million of the deferred gain from the March 2009 sale of the Plantation Golf Course (Note 10 to condensed consolidated financial statements).  The net loss for the third quarter of 2009 included $22.8 million equity in losses from our investment in Bay Holdings.  We ceased recording further losses from this investment in September 2009 after the carrying value of our investment including our $3.6 million unsecured loan was reduced to zero and our estimated liability under the completion and recourse guarantees were recorded.

 

For the first nine months of 2010, we reported net income of $12.7 million ($1.23 per share) compared to a net loss of $92.9 million ($11.57 per share) for the first nine months of 2009.  In addition to the gain from the PGC sale mentioned above, net income for the first nine months of 2010 includes a credit of $3.3 million representing the gain recognized from the curtailment of our postretirement medical plan and settlement of our postretirement life insurance plan (Note 13 to condensed consolidated financial statements) and pre-tax profits of $2.5 million from the sale of real estate inventory and our former administrative offices in Kahului. The first nine months of 2009 includes charges totaling $47.2 million related to our investment in Bay Holdings. Our losses for the first nine months of 2009 also includes charges of $14.2 million for the write off of development plans that were no longer considered feasible due to changes in market conditions; and a charge of $1.9 million representing an adjustment to estimated fair value less cost to sell of certain real estate that we have classified as held for sale (included in loss from discontinued operations).

 

General and Administrative

 

Consolidated general and administrative expenses were $3.3 million for the third quarter of 2010 compared to $3.1 million for the third quarter of 2009; and $7.6 million for the first nine months of 2010 compared to $15.8 million for the first nine months of 2009.

The decrease in pension and other post retirement expense in 2010 is due to the termination of our postretirement life insurance plan for all retirees in January 2010 and elimination of retiree medical insurance benefits for non-bargaining retirees in February 2010.  These actions resulted in curtailment and settlement gains totaling $3.3 million of which $2.3 million was credited to discontinued operations. In addition, our non-bargaining pension plan was frozen as of January 1, 2010, so there was no service cost accrued for this plan in 2010 (Note 13 to condensed consolidated financial statements).

 

The decrease in salaries, wages, and stock compensation expense in 2010 reflect staffing reductions and attrition in all operating segments and in corporate services.  Staff reductions took place throughout 2009, and further attrition continued in 2010.  As of September 30, 2010, we had 203 employees compared to 623 employees as of September 2009.  Severance expense in the first nine months of 2009 includes amounts related to the termination of our former President and Chief Executive Officer in May 2009.

 

Contract settlements for 2010 include a $617,000 net loss from the extinguishment of $40 million senior secured convertible notes in August 2010 (Note 5 to condensed consolidated financial statements).  In the first nine months of 2009, contract settlements included $1.9 million for the deposit forfeiture and settlement payment under which we were obligated to purchase certain real estate at Kapalua Resort.

 

The decrease in professional and other services in 2010 reflects reductions in our utilization of outside professional services.

 

General and administrative expenses are incurred at the corporate level and at the operating segment level. All general and administrative expenses incurred at the corporate level are allocated to our operating segments. Such allocations are made on the basis of our evaluation of the level of services provided to the operating segments.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense was $2.4 million for the third quarter of 2010 compared to $2.7 million for the third quarter of 2009.  Included in interest expense for the third quarter of 2010 are charges of $280,000 representing accretion of the carrying value of $40 million of convertible notes.  Included in interest expense for the third quarter of 2009 are net credits of $63,000 representing the change in the estimated fair value of the derivative liability that was bifurcated from the $40 million of convertible notes, plus the change in fair value of certain interest swap agreements, and accretion on the carrying value of the convertible notes. The swap agreements expired in January 2010 and the convertible notes were repaid in August 2010. In the third quarter of 2010 our average borrowings were approximately $5.4 million lower than the third quarter of 2009. Our effective interest rate on borrowings was 5.6% in the third quarter of 2010 compared to 6.4% in the third quarter of 2009.

 

Interest expense was $8.3 million for the first nine months of 2010 compared to $7.3 million for the first nine months of 2009.  Included in interest expense for the first nine months of 2010 and 2009 are net charges (credits) of $1,439,000 and $(431,000), respectively, representing the accretion of and change in the estimated fair value of the derivative liability and swap agreements described above.  In the first nine months of 2010 our average borrowings were approximately $15.2 million lower than the first nine months of 2009. Our effective interest rate on borrowings was 5.7% in the first nine months of 2010 compared to 5.8% in the first nine months of 2009.

Resort segment revenues decreased from $7.6 million in the third quarter of 2009 to $5.6 million for the third quarter of 2010, or 26%.  Resort segment revenues decreased from $22.9 million in the first nine months of 2009 to $17.9 million for the first nine months of 2010, or 22%.  The decrease in Resort segment revenues for the third quarter and the first nine months primarily reflect the absence of revenues from The Kapalua Villas and Kapalua Adventures in 2010 as these operations were leased to third party operators in December 2009.  We are now receiving lease and license income related to these operations that is reflected in the Community Development segment results.  Partially offsetting the decrease in Resort operations revenues from The Kapalua Villas and Kapalua Adventures was an increase in revenues from the Kapalua Spa that began operating in July 2009.

 

The Resort segment reported an operating profit of $23.5 million for the third quarter of 2010, compared to an operating loss of $3.4 million for the third quarter of 2009. For the first nine months of 2010, the Resort segment operating profit was $18.3 million compared to an operating loss of $12.2 million for the first nine months of 2009. Operating profit for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 includes a $25.7 million gain from the March 2009 sale of the Plantation Golf Course (Note 10 to condensed consolidated financial statements).  The improved results in 2010 also reflect better results from our golf and spa operations and general cost reductions throughout the Resort segment operations.  The results reported by the Company’s operating segments include allocations of corporate and administrative overhead charges.  Visitor counts to Maui in 2010 increased over 2009, which also contributed to the improved results.

 

Golf and Retail

 

Revenues from golf operations were approximately the same in the third quarter of 2010 as the third quarter of 2009, as a 17% decrease in paid rounds of golf was offset by an increase in average greens and cart fees per paid round. For the first nine months of 2010, revenues from golf operations increased by approximately 5% compared to the first nine months of 2009, as a 3% decrease in paid rounds of golf was more than offset by an increase in average greens and cart fees per paid round.

 

Resort retail sales for the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 were approximately 12% and 14% lower, respectively, than the same periods in 2009, primarily reflecting the reduced spending by guests and a reduction in retail and food and beverage space with the closure of the Kapalua Adventures retail and café in December 2009 and the closure of our tennis retail area in November 2009.

Revenues from the Community Development segment were $2.6 million for the third quarter of 2010 compared to $12.1 million for the third quarter of 2009.  Revenues from this operating segment were $9.3 million for the first nine months of 2010 compared to $15.9 million for the first nine months of 2009.  Lower revenues in the third quarter and first nine months of 2010 are due to lower sales of real estate inventories, partially offset by increased revenues from lease and license agreements that were primarily put in place in December 2009, and increased commission income from the sale of real estate.

Table of Contents

 

The Community Development segment reported an operating loss of $499,000 for the third quarter of 2010 compared to an operating loss of $16.2 million for the third quarter of 2009.  For the first nine months of 2010 this operating segment reported operating profit of $237,000 compared to an operating loss of $60.4 million for the same period in 2009.

 

The operating loss for the third quarter and first nine months of 2009 included our equity in losses of Bay Holdings of $22.8 million and $47.2 million, respectively.  The Community Development operating loss for the first nine months of 2009 also included a charge of $14.2 million for the write off of project development plans that were no longer feasible as designed due to changing market conditions. In 2010, we did not recognize any additional losses from our investment in Bay Holdings as the carrying value of the investment and our loan to Bay Holdings have been written down to zero and we have no further obligation to fund losses (Note 11 to condensed consolidated financial statements).

 

Real Estate Inventory Sales

 

There were no sales of real estate inventories in the third quarter of 2010.  In the third quarter of 2009, we sold approximately 125 acres including a portion of our master-planned Kapalua Mauka project and recognized revenues of $10.0 million and pre-tax profit of approximately $7.3 million.

 

Community Development segment revenues for the first nine months of 2010 includes the March 2010 sale of approximately 128 acres of land in Upcountry Maui that resulted in revenues of $1.7 million and pre-tax profit of approximately $1.5 million.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Debt Position

 

At September 30, 2010, our total debt, including capital leases, was $43.3 million, compared to $96.6 million at December 31, 2009.  The decrease in outstanding debt was primarily due to the repayment of $60 million of outstanding debt as a result of the completion of our $40 million rights offering in July 2010 (Note 6 to condensed consolidated financial statements) and the sale of the Bay Course and maintenance facility in September 2010 for $24.1 million in cash (Note 10 to condensed consolidated financial statements).  In connection with the completion of our rights offering, our convertible notes with face value of $40 million and book value of $36.3 million were repaid at 88% of their face value, or $35.2 million in August 2010.  In consideration of the release of the Bay Course from the collateral of our $50 million revolving line of credit, we repaid $20 million of outstanding borrowings under that line and the availability under the line was commensurately reduced.  At September 30, 2010, we had approximately $11.1 million available under existing lines of credit and $1.8 million in cash and cash equivalents; an excess of current liabilities over current assets of $70.6 million, and a deficiency in stockholders’ equity (total liabilities exceeded total assets) of $23.5 million.  Cash used in operating activities was $5.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

 

Included in current liabilities are $42.8 million of borrowings outstanding under credit facilities that are scheduled to mature in March 2011, with financial covenants requiring among other things, a minimum of $8 million in liquidity and a limitation on new indebtedness.  Failure to satisfy the minimum liquidity covenants or to otherwise default under one credit agreement could result in a default under both credit agreements. Defaults under the credit agreements could result in all outstanding borrowings becoming immediately due and payable.

Liquidity

 

Our cash outlook for the next twelve months and our ability to make the required debt repayments in March 2011 and to continue to meet our financial covenants is highly dependent on selling certain real estate assets in a difficult market and to refinancing our existing debt. If we are unable to meet our financial covenants resulting in the borrowings becoming immediately due, or are unable to restructure our credit agreements to extend the maturity date beyond March 2011, we would not have sufficient liquidity to repay such outstanding borrowings (Note 5 to condensed consolidated financial statements). In addition, we have a commitment to purchase the spa, beach club improvements and the sundry store, referred to as the Amenities, from Bay Holdings at actual construction costs of approximately $35 million. We do not currently have the cash resources to complete the purchase.  We are in discussions with the other members of Bay Holdings to negotiate the terms of the purchase agreement including the purchase price and payment terms, and are discussing whether we will even be required to purchase the Amenities.  In June 2009, we announced that due to a lack of a title sponsor, we were unable to hold the 2009 LPGA event that was scheduled for October. This has resulted in a dispute with the LPGA, which can be resolved by mediation and if necessary by binding arbitration. By agreement between the parties, mediation has been suspended through November 2010 and we paid $700,000 of which 50% will be applied towards sponsorship of an event if the parties are able to structure a future event. We are also subject to other commitments and contingencies such as a legal dispute with a former grower and an EEOC matter related to our former Agriculture operations, and funding requirements related to our defined pension plan that could negatively impact our future cash flows.  These matters are further described in Notes 13 and 17 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.  These circumstances raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully achieve our initiatives discussed below in order to continue as a going concern. Our condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

In response to these circumstances, we have undertaken and will continue to undertake several financial and strategic initiatives to generate cash flow from a variety of sources, including capital raising transactions and the sale of several real estate assets.  In particular, in the first nine months of 2010, we concluded the sale of two properties that resulted in total cash proceeds (net of selling costs) of $3.3 million. In addition, in July 2010, we completed a rights offering and we received gross proceeds of $40 million. Pursuant to purchase agreements with holders of our senior secured convertible notes that held in the aggregate $40 million of the principal amount of these notes, as of August 3, 2010, we paid $35.2 million to redeem the notes. On September 30, 2010, we sold the Bay Course and adjacent maintenance facility and received net cash proceeds of $22.8 million of which $20 million was used to repay borrowings under our credit agreement with Wells Fargo.  We have also taken several actions to reduce cash outflows, as well as adopting measures to reduce operating expenses. In particular, in February 2010, we terminated our postretirement medical insurance plan for non-bargaining retirees and in January we increased the percentage of medical insurance that active employees are paying for current medical insurance coverage.  We also terminated our retiree life insurance plan in January 2010. We are actively in the process of attempting to sell several selected real estate assets to provide additional liquidity and to further reduce debt.  In addition, we are actively working with our lenders to extend the maturity date of our credit agreements.

 

Amended Construction Loan Agreement Following Lehman Bankruptcy

 

In July 2006, Bay Holdings, in which we have a 51% interest, entered into a syndicated construction loan agreement with Lehman, for the lesser of $370 million or 61.6% of the total projected cost of the project. Lehman’s commitment under the loan agreement was approximately 78% of the total. On September 15, 2008, Lehman filed a petition under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court. In February 2009, Bay Holdings entered into an amended and restated construction loan agreement with Lehman, Swedbank, MH Kapalua Venture, LLC, an affiliate of Marriott, and certain other syndicate lenders, pursuant to which Bay Holdings could borrow an aggregate of approximately $354.5 million, including amounts previously funded under the original construction loan agreement (Note 11 to condensed consolidated financial statements).

 

Revolving Line of Credit with American AgCredit, FLCA

 

In October 2009, we executed an amendment to our revolving line of credit agreement with American AgCredit, FLCA. The amendment extended the maturity of the loan from March 2010 to March 2011, reduced the minimum liquidity requirement from $10 million to $8 million, placed limitations on new indebtedness and capital expenditures, required that total liabilities not exceed $240 million and increased the interest rate by 75 to 200 basis points, subject to a minimum interest rate of 5.5%. As of September 30, 2010, this $25 million line of credit was fully drawn (Note 5 to condensed consolidated financial statements).

Table of Contents

 

Revolving Line of Credit with Wells Fargo and Certain Other Lenders

 

In October 2009, we executed a restated and amended revolving line of credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank and certain other lenders. The restated and amended credit agreement increased the amount of the revolving line from $45 million to $50 million, extended the maturity of the loan from March 2010 to March 2011, reduced the minimum liquidity requirement from $10 million to $8 million, required that total liabilities not exceed $240 million and limited additional indebtedness and capital expenditures.  Interest on outstanding amounts are at a LIBOR market index or the LIBOR rate, plus 4.25%, subject to a minimum interest rate of 5.5%.  As of September 30, 2010, the restated and amended credit agreement was amended to reduce the revolving line commitment from $50 million to $30 million, after we paid down $20 million of borrowings from proceeds from the sale of the Bay Course.  As of September 30, 2010, we had $17.8 million outstanding or encumbered to secure letters of credit, and $11.1 million available under this line (Note 5 to condensed consolidated financial statements).

 

Private Placement of Convertible Notes

 

On July 28, 2008, we issued $40 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured convertible notes, bearing 5.875% interest per annum payable quarterly in cash in arrears beginning October 15, 2008. As of June 30, 2010, we had $40.5 million in principal and accrued but unpaid interest outstanding under the convertible notes.  As of August 3, 2010, we redeemed all of the outstanding senior secured convertible notes for 88% of the face value or $35.2 million.  We paid an additional aggregate sum of $800,000 in connection with entering into the purchase agreements to redeem the notes in order to lock up the holders for a period of up to 47 days.

 

As of September 30, 2010, we were in compliance with all of the covenants under our outstanding debt arrangements.

 

Operating Cash Flows

 

In the first nine months of 2010, consolidated net cash used in operating activities was $5.8 million compared to net cash used in operating activities of $9.7 million for the first nine months of 2009. Operating cash flows for the first nine months of 2010 included expenditures of $1.2 million related to the extinguishment of our $40 million senior secured convertible notes. The improved cash flows from operating activities reflect improved operating performance, continued implementation of cost reduction measures in all of our operations, and income tax refunds of $5.5 million.  In addition, we sold 128 acres of land in the first nine months of 2010 and received net cash proceeds of $1.5 million.  Operating cash flows for the first nine months of 2009 includes $9.9 million from the sale of real estate inventories.

 

Investing Cash Flows

 

Cash provided by investing activities in the first nine months of 2010 include $3.2 million for the purchase and installation of the irrigation system on the Plantation Course, $1.7 million from the sale of our former administrative offices and the two acre parcel underlying those buildings, and $1.7 million from the sale of excess machinery and equipment.

 

Financing Cash Flows

 

Cash flows from financing activities for the first nine months of 2010 include $22.8 million of cash received from the sale of the Bay Course and maintenance facility in September 2010.  In the first nine months of 2009, financing cash flows included $48.5 million in cash received from the sale of the Plantation Course in March 2009.  The cash received from the sales of the Bay Course and the Plantation Course was accounted for as financing because of the leaseback arrangement and other continuing involvement with the properties.  The first nine months of 2010 and 2009 included net repayments of long-term debt and capital lease obligations of $55.1 million and $50.9 million, respectively.

 

Future Cash Inflows and Outflows

 

Our plans for the remainder of 2010 include the possible sale of certain operating and non-operating real estate assets.  There can be no assurance that we will be able to sell any of our real estate assets.

 

In 2010, minimum required contributions to our defined benefit pension plans are expected to be $2.0 million, which to date has been paid. In September 2010, we were advised by the Pension Benefits Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) that the cessation of our pineapple operations and the corresponding reduction in the active participant count for our Pension Plan for Bargaining Unit and Hourly Employees (Plan) has triggered the requirement that we provide security to the PBGC of approximately $5.2 million to support unfunded liabilities of the Plan or that we make contributions to the Plan in excess of the minimum required amounts. Management is currently working with the PBGC to reach an agreement as to the amount of contributions that will be made and the form and amount of collateral that will be provided.

Table of Contents

 

Our net pension liability and minimum required contribution amounts are calculated based upon an assessment of several variables including employee compensation levels, employee turnover rates, the expected long term rate of return on investments, and other factors that are difficult to ascertain. Any significant changes in any one or more of these variables could materially affect our net pension liability and required minimum contributions. We expect to contribute $190,000 to our other post-retirement benefit plans in 2010.

 

In 2010, capital expenditures and expenditures for deferred development costs have been reduced, except for expenditures that are necessary to maintain our operations and standards of quality at the Kapalua Resort. Expenditures planned for 2010, excluding costs related to the PGC irrigation system, total approximately $1.0 million, primarily for development entitlement work.

 

We have a commitment to purchase the Amenities from Bay Holdings at actual construction costs of approximately $35 million. We are in discussions with the members of Bay Holdings to negotiate the terms of the purchase agreement including the purchase price and payment terms, and are discussing whether we will even be required to purchase the Amenities.

This and other reports filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, contain forward-looking statements intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They contain words such as “may,” “will,” “project,” “might,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “would,” “estimate,” “continue” or “pursue,” or the negative or other variations thereof or comparable terminology. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements as a result of the following factors, among others.

 

·                  our ability to comply with the terms of our indebtedness, including the financial covenants set forth therein;

 

·                  our ability to refinance our existing credit lines on terms that are favorable to us or at all;

 

·                  general economic factors, including the current economic slowdown;

 

·                  our inability to complete land development projects in a timely manner or at all;

 

·                  our ability to raise capital through the sale of selected real property assets;

 

·                  the ability and willingness of our lenders to comply with the terms of their lending agreements with us;

 

·                  uncertain fuel and travel costs, and reductions in airline passenger capacity to Maui;

 

·                  dependence on third parties and actual or potential lack of control over joint venture relationships;

 

·                  timing of approvals and conditions of future real estate entitlement applications;

 

·                  impact of current and future local, state and national government regulations;

 

·                  future cost of compliance with environmental laws;

 

·                  effects of weather conditions and natural disasters; and

 

·                  our ability to maintain the listing of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange.

 

Such risks and uncertainties also include those risks and uncertainties discussed in the sections entitled “Business,” “Risk Factors,” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, and the sections entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as other factors described from time to time in our reports filed with the SEC. Although we believe that our opinions and expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date of this report, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements, and our actual results may differ substantially from the views and expectations set forth in this report. Thus, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which factors will arise. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly revise our forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date of this report.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

 

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this report. Based upon the foregoing, our Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable SEC rules and forms. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
