NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

(UNAUDITED)

 

1.     Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying interim 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, 2011, 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 June 30, 2012 and 2011. The condensed consolidated 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, 2011.

 

LIQUIDITY

 

The Company reported a net loss of $1,278,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Included in net loss was a profit of $1,351,000 recognized from the sale of a real estate parcel in January 2012.  The Company reported negative cash flows from operations of $1,146,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The Company had an excess of current liabilities over current assets of $52.8 million and a stockholders’ deficiency of $26.8 million at June 30, 2012.

 

The Company has two primary credit facilities that have financial covenants requiring among other things, a minimum of $4 million in liquidity (as defined), a maximum of $175 million in total liabilities, and a limitation on new indebtedness. The Company has pledged a significant portion of its real estate holdings as security for borrowings under these credit facilities. Both facilities mature in May 2013 and have been classified as currently due.

 

The Company’s cash outlook for the next twelve months and its ability to continue to meet its financial covenants is highly dependent on selling certain real estate assets in a difficult market and its ability to refinance its debt. If the Company is unable to restructure its credit agreements to extend the maturity dates beyond May 2013, the Company would not have sufficient liquidity to repay such outstanding borrowings. In addition, the Company is subject to several purchase commitments and contingencies that could negatively impact its future cash flows, including commitments of up to $35 million to purchase the spa, beach club improvements and the sundry store (the “Amenities”) of Kapalua Bay Holdings, LLC (Bay Holdings), a 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 8, 10 and 13.

 

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 efforts to generate cash flow by employing its real estate assets in leasing and other arrangements, by the sale of several real estate assets, and by continued cost reduction efforts. The Company is also actively working with its lenders to extend the maturity dates of its credit facilities.

 

RECLASSIFICATIONS

 

Revenues, costs and expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated 2011 statements of comprehensive income (loss) have been reclassified to conform to the presentation adopted by the Company on September 30, 2011.  The current presentation principally reflects the Company’s increased emphasis of real estate, leasing, utilities and resort amenities operations and changes in segment reporting (see Note 12).  The 2011 presentation reflects changes in the Company’s business due to the discontinuation of retail operations (see Note 6).

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.

 

3.     Average Common Shares Outstanding Used to Compute Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

		Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
		June 30,				June 30,
		2012		2011		2012		2011
Basic and diluted		18,622,587		18,528,213		18,602,987		18,522,263
Potentially dilutive		222,145		321,661		222,145		322,282

 

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 and non-vested restricted stock. 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. These amounts were excluded because the effect would be anti-dilutive.

 

4.     Assets Held for Sale and Real Estate Sales

 

At June 30, 2012, assets held for sale included a 7-acre parcel in Kahului and a 630-acre parcel in Upcountry Maui.

 

In January 2012, the Company sold an 89-acre parcel in Upcountry Maui for $1.5 million. The sale resulted in a gain of $1.4 million and the Company utilized $353,000 of the proceeds to repay its term loan with American AgCredit, in accordance with the terms of its credit agreement.

 

In September 2010, the Company sold the land, improvements, structures and fixtures comprising the Kapalua Bay Golf Course (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, and due to certain construction work required by the lease back arrangement and other continuing involvement, the sale was accounted for as a financing transaction. At the conclusion of the lease back period, the Company recognized a $15.1 million gain from the sale which has been reported in discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

 

5.     Long-Term Debt

 

Long-term debt at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 consisted of the following:

 

		June 30, 2012			December 31, 2011
		(in thousands)
Wells Fargo revolving loans, 4.05% and 4.12%		$	22,800		$	21,100
American AgCredit term loan, 5.25%		24,068			24,421
Total		46,868			45,521
Less current portion		46,868			—
Long-term debt		$	—		$	45,521

 

WELLS FARGO

 

The Company has a $34.5 million revolving line of credit with Wells Fargo that matures on May 1, 2013. Interest rates on borrowings are at LIBOR plus 3.8% and the line of credit is collateralized by approximately 880 acres of the Company’s real estate holdings at the Kapalua Resort. The line of credit agreement contains various representations, warranties, affirmative, negative and financial covenants and events of default customary for financings of this type. Financial covenants include a required minimum liquidity of $4 million (as defined, which includes the available line of credit) and maximum total liabilities of $175 million. The credit agreement includes predetermined release prices for the real property securing the credit facility and an option to extend the maturity date to May 1, 2014, upon satisfaction of certain conditions. The option to extend the maturity date may be exercised by the Company, provided that (i) the Company is not in default under the credit agreement, (ii) there has been no material adverse change, as determined by the lender, in the financial condition of the Company, (iii) the aggregate amount of the credit line does not exceed 40% of the value of the property securing the credit line, and (iv) the operating income attributable to the properties securing the credit line is at least 6% of the aggregate amount of the credit line.  If the loan-to-value or the operating income thresholds are not met, the credit agreement may still be extended, but the aggregate amount of the credit line will be reduced such that those percentages are satisfied.  The Company may not be able to extend the credit agreement if the conditions are not satisfied.  Even if the Company is able to extend the credit agreement, it may be required to repay a portion of its borrowings if the aggregate amount of the credit line is reduced.  Absent the sale of some of its real estate holdings or refinancing, the Company does not expect to be able to repay any significant amount of borrowings under the credit line.

Table of Contents

 

In July 2011, the Company paid down the line of credit with $4.1 million of proceeds from the sale of real estate and in August 2011, the line of credit agreement was modified to reserve $4.1 million of credit availability for the payment of legacy costs (as defined) and to exclude $4.1 million from the credit line availability in the calculation of the minimum liquidity financial covenant. As of June 30, 2012, $4.1 million of legacy costs were paid and therefore no amounts are excluded from credit availability. There are no commitment fees on the unused portion of the revolving facility. As of June 30, 2012, the Company had $11.2 million available borrowing capacity and irrevocable letters of credit totaling $0.5 million that were secured by the Wells Fargo revolving line of credit.

 

AMERICAN AGCREDIT

 

At June 30, 2012, the Company had $24.1 million outstanding under a term loan with American AgCredit that matures on May 1, 2013. The interest rate on this credit facility is based on the greater of 1.00% or the 30-day LIBOR rate, plus an applicable spread of 4.25%. The loan agreement provides for tiered reductions in the applicable spread to 3.75%, subject to corresponding reductions in the principal balance of the loan. The loan requires mandatory principal prepayments of 100% of the net proceeds of the sale of any real property pledged as collateral for the loan. It also requires tiered mandatory principal prepayments based on predetermined percentages ranging from 10% to 75% of the net proceeds from the sale of non-collateralized real property. In accordance with this provision, the Company made $353,000 of principal payments in January 2012 due to the real property sale discussed in Note 4. The credit agreement is collateralized by approximately 3,100 acres of the Company’s real estate holdings in West Maui and Upcountry Maui. The term loan agreement contains various representations, warranties, affirmative, negative and financial covenants and events of default customary for financings of this type.  Financial covenants include a required minimum liquidity (as defined) of $4 million and maximum total liabilities of $175 million. Absent the sale of some of its real estate holdings or refinancing, the Company does not expect to be able to pay the outstanding balance under the term loan on the maturity date.

 

As of June 30, 2012, the Company believes it is in compliance with the covenants under the Wells Fargo and American AgCredit credit facilities. Management is actively working with its lenders to extend the maturity dates of its credit facilities.

 

6.     Discontinued Operations

 

In September 2011, the Company ceased all retail operations at the Kapalua Resort.  At the conclusion of the lease-back arrangements in March 2011, the Company ceased operating the two championship golf courses at the Kapalua Resort.  In December 2009, the Company ceased all agriculture operations.  Accordingly, the operating results including any gains or losses from the disposal of assets related to these former operations have been reported as discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Revenues and income (loss) before income taxes from discontinued operations were as follows:

7.     Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820) — Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS.  The amendments in this ASU result in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and international financial reporting standards (IFRS). The ASU also provides for certain changes in current GAAP disclosure requirements, for example with respect to the measurement of level 3 assets and for measuring the fair value of an instrument classified in a reporting entity’s shareholders’ equity. The amendments in this ASU are to be applied prospectively, and are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-15, Comprehensive Income (ASC Topic 220) — Presentation of Comprehensive Income.  The amendments from this update will result in more converged guidance on how comprehensive income is presented under both U.S. GAAP and IFRS. With this update to ASC 220, an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Previous U.S. GAAP allowed reporting entities three alternatives for presenting other comprehensive income and its components in financial statements. One of those presentation options was to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. This update eliminates that option. The amendments in this ASU should be applied retrospectively, and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

8.              Investments in Affiliates

 

The Company has a 51% ownership interest in Bay Holdings, which is the sole member of Kapalua Bay LLC (Kapalua Bay).  The other members of Bay Holdings are MH Kapalua Venture, LLC, 34%, and ER Kapalua Investors Fund, LLC, 15%. Bay Holdings is not a variable interest entity, as defined in GAAP. The Company accounts for its investment in Bay Holdings using the equity method of accounting because, although it has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, it does not control Bay Holdings through a majority voting interest or other means. Under the LLC agreement, major decisions require the approval of either 75% or 100% of the membership interests. The Company has been designated as the managing member of Bay Holdings. Profits and losses of Bay Holdings were allocated in proportion to the members’ ownership interests, which approximated the estimated cash distributions to the members.

 

Kapalua Bay constructed a residential and timeshare development called The Ritz-Carlton Club and Residences, Kapalua Bay on land that it owns at the site of the former Kapalua Bay Hotel, and a spa on an adjacent parcel of land that is owned by the Company and leased to Kapalua Bay. Through June 30, 2012, the sale of 28 (84 total) whole-ownership units and 177 (744 total) fractional units have closed escrow.

 

As a result of the 2009 losses incurred by Bay Holdings, the Company’s carrying value of its investment in Bay Holdings was written down to zero in 2009. The Company does not expect to recover any amounts from its investment in Bay Holdings. 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 non-monetary contributions of land valued at $25 million.

 

Kapalua Bay has a construction loan agreement with Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. and other lenders under which $282.3 million was outstanding at June 30, 2012, and that matured on August 1, 2011. The loan is collateralized by the project assets including the land that is owned by Kapalua Bay that underlies the project. The Company and the other members of Bay Holdings have guaranteed to the lenders completion of the project and recourse with regard to certain acts, but have not guaranteed repayment of the loan. On March 13, 2012, the lenders notified Kapalua Bay that the loan was in default and on June 13, 2012, the lenders filed for foreclosure against Kapalua Bay, Bay Holdings and other entities related to the project.

 

Pursuant to a previous agreement, the Company agreed to purchase from Kapalua Bay the Amenities that were completed in 2009 at the actual construction cost of approximately $35 million. Through December 31, 2010, Bay Holdings recorded impairment charges in its consolidated financial statements of approximately $23 million related to the Amenities. In 2011 and for the six months ended June 30, 2012, loss from the operations of the Amenities was $432,000 and $289,000, respectively. The Company does not have sufficient liquidity to purchase the Amenities at the actual construction cost of approximately $35 million and has been in discussions with the other members of Bay Holdings and the lenders to negotiate the terms of the purchase and sale. No provision has been recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements with respect to the Company’s executory contract to purchase the Amenities. If the Amenities are subsequently acquired, they will be evaluated for impairment and could result in a loss.

 

A group of owners of 10 whole-ownership units filed a lawsuit on June 7, 2012 against multiple parties, including Kapalua Bay and the Company. The lawsuit alleges that the defendant parties breached their fiduciary duties to the Association of Apartment Owners of Kapalua Bay Condominium (AOAO) and the plaintiffs. In addition, the lawsuit seeks certain injunctive and declaratory relief regarding the management and operations of the AOAO and the project. On July 10, 2012, The Ritz-Carlton Management Company, LLC (RCMC) issued a notice of default and termination to the AOAO and Kapalua Bay Vacation Owners Association (VOA) effective September 10, 2012 as a result of insufficient funding of the ongoing operating costs of the AOAO and VOA in accordance with the terms of its operating agreement. The Company is presently unable to reasonably determine the impact, if any, of these matters on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company has recorded $4.1 million in accrued contract terminations in the condensed consolidated balance sheets representing the remaining expected exposure to loss related to our involvement with the project.

During June 2012, Bay Holdings recorded cancellations of contracts that will no longer be closed as scheduled.  Bay Holdings has not recognized any impairment of the project’s assets during the six months ended June 30, 2012. As discussed above, the Company’s carrying value of its investment in Bay Holdings was written down to zero in the past, and the Company does not recognize any equity in the losses of Bay Holdings. As a result, management does not believe an adjustment for impairment charges, if any, would have a material impact to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

9.              Share-Based Compensation

 

The total compensation expense recognized for share-based compensation was $120,000 and $171,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $267,000 and $330,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. There was no tax benefit or expense related thereto for each period presented. Recognized stock compensation was reduced for estimated forfeitures prior to vesting primarily based on historical annual forfeiture rates of approximately 3.3% and 3.8%, as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Estimated forfeitures will be reassessed in subsequent periods and may change based on new facts and circumstances. In February 2012, executive officers and management were awarded an incentive bonus of $150,300 based on meeting certain performance metrics included in the Executive and Key Management Compensation Plan.  In accordance with the plan, the incentive award was settled through the issuance of 39,294 shares of common stock.

		Three Months						Six Months
		Ended June 30,						Ended June 30,
		2012			2011			2012			2011

Recognized actuarial loss		185			202			370			404
Net expense		$	266		$	285		$	532		$	598

 

The minimum required contributions to the Company’s defined benefit pension plans in 2012 are expected to be $2.2 million, of which $1.1 million has been funded through June 30, 2012.

 

The Company’s cessation of its pineapple operations at the end of 2009 and the corresponding reduction in the active participant count for the Pension Plan for Bargaining Unit and Hourly Employees (Bargaining Plan) triggered the requirement that the Company provide security to the Pension Benefits Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) of approximately $5.2 million to support the unfunded liabilities of the Bargaining Plan. In April 2011, the Company executed a settlement agreement with the PBGC and pledged security of approximately 1,400 acres in West Maui that will be released in five years if the Company does not otherwise default on the agreement. The Company was advised in October 2011 that the cessation of its golf operations and the corresponding reduction in the active participant count for the Bargaining Plan and the Pension Plan for Non-Bargaining Unit Employees has triggered the requirement that the Company provide additional security to the PBGC of approximately $18.7 million to support the unfunded liabilities of the two pension plans or to make contributions to the plans in excess of the minimum required amounts. The Company is currently working with the PBGC to reach an agreement as to the amount of the contributions that will be made or the form and amount of collateral that will be provided to the PBGC in connection with the unfunded liabilities.

 

11.      Income Taxes

 

The effective tax rate for 2012 and 2011 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 condensed consolidated statements of operations; and such amounts are included in income taxes payable on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

At June 30, 2012, the Company had a liability of $626,000 for unrecognized tax benefits and accrued interest and penalties thereon of $830,000. At June 30, 2012 there were no unrecognized tax benefits for which the liability for such taxes were recognized as deferred tax liabilities because net operating losses available to be carried back would offset any income tax liability; and the unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate.

12.  Operating Segment Information

 

In September 2011, the Company revised its operating segments to reflect the September 2011 discontinuance of retail operations, the March 2011 discontinuance of golf operations and the Company’s increased emphasis on real estate, leasing, utilities and resort amenities operations. The reportable operating segment presentation adopted is consistent with how the Company’s chief operating decision maker determines the allocation of resources. Reportable segments are as follows:

 

·                  Real Estate includes the development and sale of real estate inventory and the operations of Kapalua Realty Company, a general brokerage real estate company located within the Kapalua Resort.

·                  Leasing primarily includes revenues and expenses from real property leasing activities, license fees and royalties for the use of certain of the Company’s trademarks and brand names by third parties, and the cost of maintaining the Company’s real estate assets, including conservation activities.

·                  Utilities primarily include the operations of Kapalua Water Company and Kapalua Waste Treatment Company, the Company’s water and sewage transmission operations (regulated by the Hawaii Public Utilities Commission) servicing the Kapalua Resort.  The operating segment also includes the management of ditch, reservoir and well systems that provide non-potable irrigation water to West and Upcountry Maui areas.

·                  Resort Amenities includes a spa, beach club and a membership program that provides certain benefits and privileges within the Kapalua Resort for its members.
