For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company reported a net loss of $1.2 million, or $(0.07) per share, compared to a net loss of $2.5 million, or $(0.14) per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

In May 2014, the Company sold a 4-acre parcel and building that serves as the maintenance facility for the Kapalua Plantation Golf Course for $2.3 million. The sale resulted in a gain of $1.5 million.

In June 2013, the Company sold a 7-acre parcel that was the last of its former agricultural processing facilities in central Maui for $4.0 million. The sale resulted in a gain of $1.9 million.

As previously reported, on October 9, 2014, the Company sold an unimproved 244-acre parcel of former agricultural land located in West Maui, commonly known as Lipoa Point, to the State of Hawaii for $19.8 million. The sale resulted from a bill enacted by the State of Hawaii in June 2013, which provided for the purchase of Lipoa Point with the stipulation that the proceeds from the sale be designated for the benefit of the Company’s pension plans. The Lipoa Point property was previously pledged to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (“PBGC”) as security for the Company’s pension plans, which at September 30, 2014 were underfunded by $20.3 million.

Upon the closing of the Lipoa Point sale, the $19.8 million sale price, less closing costs of approximately $400,000, was transferred to the trustee of the Company’s pension plans and the mortgage on the property held by the PBGC was released. With the funding of the Company’s pension plans from the Lipoa Point sale, the Company does not expect to be required to make minimum contributions to its pension plans for the foreseeable future. Such contributions totaled $2.8 million and $2.1 million for 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The Lipoa Point sale resulted in a gain of approximately $19.3 million, which will be included in the Company’s operating results for the quarter ending December 31, 2014.
