Alico Inc. reported net income attributable to common stockholders of $2.7 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the third quarter ended June 30, 2022. The results were impacted by a freeze event and greater fruit drop, leading to lower box production and pound solids per box. The company has updated its guidance for net income, EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA for fiscal year 2022 to reflect the disappointing harvest season.
Box production for past harvest season was down from the previous year due to a freeze event and greater fruit drop.
Average pound solids per box was down from the previous year.
Market prices per pound solids increased for the second consecutive year.
Company’s latest ranch land sales sold at an average price of approximately $5,000 per acre. Interest from prospective buyers remains robust.
The Company is revising its guidance for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022 to reflect the lower than anticipated internal quality of the Valencia fruit, primarily resulting from the freeze event. In addition, certain ranch land sales transactions which were targeted to close before the end of fiscal year 2022 are now expected to close in fiscal year 2023.
