ALICO, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

Alico, Inc. (“Alico”), together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company", "we", "us" or "our”), is a Florida agribusiness and land management company owning approximately 117,000 acres of land throughout Florida, including approximately 90,000 acres of mineral rights. The Company manages its land based upon its primary usage, and reviews its performance based upon two primary classifications - Alico Citrus (formerly Orange Co.) and Conservation and Environmental Resources. Financial results are presented based upon its three business segments (Alico Citrus, Conservation and Environmental Resources and Other Operations). 

Basis of Presentation

The Company has prepared the accompanying financial statements on a condensed consolidated basis. These accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, which are referred to herein as the “Financial Statements", have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial information. These Financial Statements do not include all of the disclosures required for complete annual financial statements and, accordingly, certain information, footnotes and disclosures normally included in annual financial statements, prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, have been condensed or omitted in accordance with SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, the Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, as filed with the SEC on December 11, 2017.

The Financial Statements presented in this Form 10-Q are unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, such Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP applicable to interim periods.

Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current fiscal year ending September 30, 2018. All intercompany transactions and account balances between the consolidated businesses have been eliminated.

Segments

Operating segments are defined in the criteria established under the Financial Accounting Standards Board - Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) Topic 280 as components of public entities that engage in business activities from which they may earn revenues and incur expenses for which separate financial information is available and which is evaluated regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to assess performance and allocate resources. The Company’s CODM assesses performance and allocates resources based on three operating segments: Alico Citrus (formerly Orange Co.), Conservation and Environmental Resources and Other Operations.

Principles of Consolidation

The Financial Statements include the accounts of Alico, Inc. and the accounts of all the subsidiaries in which a controlling interest is held by the Company. Under U.S. GAAP, consolidation is generally required for investments of more than 50% of the outstanding voting stock of an investee, except when control is not held by the majority owner. The Company’s subsidiaries include: Alico Land Development, Inc., Alico-Agri, Ltd., Alico Plant World, LLC, Alico Fruit Company, LLC, Alico Citrus Nursery, LLC, Alico Chemical Sales, LLC, 734 Citrus Holdings LLC and subsidiaries, Alico Fresh Fruit LLC, Alico Skink Mitigation, LLC and Citree Holdings 1, LLC. The Company considers the criteria established under FASB ASC Topic 810, “Consolidations”in its consolidation process. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the accompanying Financial Statements, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses and cash flows during the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates based upon future events. The Company evaluates estimates on an ongoing basis. The estimates are based on current and expected economic

4

conditions, historical experience, the experience and judgment of the Company’s management and various other specific assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable. The Company evaluates its assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis and may employ outside experts to assist in the Company’s evaluations.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in the accompanying Financial Statements for consistent presentation to the current period. These reclassifications had no impact on net income, equity, cash flows or working capital.

Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Subsidiary

The Financial Statements include all assets and liabilities of the less-than-100%-owned subsidiary the Company controls, Citree Holdings I, LLC (“Citree”). Accordingly, the Company has recorded a noncontrolling interest in the equity of such entity. Citree had a net loss of approximately $15,000 for each of the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and a net loss of approximately $65,000 and net income of approximately $73,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, of which 51% is attributable to the Company.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” as a new ASC topic (Topic 606). The core principle of this ASU is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU further provides guidance for any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (for example, lease contracts). The FASB subsequently issued ASU 2015-14 to defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 until annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, with earlier adoption permitted. The FASB also recently issued ASU 2016-10, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing," and 2016-12, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients," that clarify or amend the original Topic 606. ASU 2014-09 can be adopted using one of two retrospective transition methods: 1) retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or 2) as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company has reviewed ASU 2014-09 and does not expect this new guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Seasonality

Historically, the second and third quarters of Alico's fiscal year produce the majority of the Company's annual revenue. Working capital requirements are typically greater in the first and fourth quarters of the fiscal year, coinciding with harvesting cycles. Due to Hurricane Irma, in the three months ended June 30, 2018, Alico produced a smaller percentage of boxes harvested, as compared to the estimated totals for the full harvest season, than in past years. As a result, the working capital requirements varied from the typical trends historically experienced in the current year. Because of the seasonality of the business, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full fiscal year.

Note 2. Inventories

Inventories consist of the following at June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017:

(in thousands)	June 30,		September 30,
	2018		2017
Unharvested fruit crop on the trees	$	27,724	$	32,145
Beef cattle	—		1,954
Other	2,002		2,105
Total inventories	$	29,726	$	36,204

The Company records its inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 the Company recorded a net realizable adjustment on inventories of approximately $110,000. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017, the Company did not record any adjustments to reduce inventory to net realizable value. 

5

On January 25, 2018, the Company sold its breeding herd to a third party and as a result the value of the Beef Cattle inventory was expensed.

In September 2017, the State of Florida's citrus business, including the Company's unharvested citrus crop, was significantly impacted by Hurricane Irma. For the year ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded a casualty loss on its inventory. In calculating this casualty loss, the Company made certain estimates. As of June 30, 2018, there were no revisions to these estimates which required any further inventory losses to be recorded.

In the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, the Company received insurance proceeds relating to Hurricane Irma of approximately $460,000 for property and casualty damage claims and approximately $3,725,000 for crop claims. Subsequent to June 30, 2018, the Company has received approximately $5,192,000 in additional insurance proceeds relating to crop claims, which have been recorded in operating expenses. The Company has additional property and casualty and crop insurance claims outstanding and is awaiting determination of additional proceeds to be received.

In addition to the commercial insurance claims which have been submitted, the Company may be eligible for Irma federal relief programs distributed by the Farm Service Agency under the 2017 Wildfires and Hurricane Indemnity Program (2017 WHIP) as well as block grants that will be administered through the State of Florida.  The specifics of these programs are still being finalized, and at this time, the Company cannot determine the amount of federal relief funds, if any, which will be received or when these funds will be disbursed.

Note 3. Assets Held for Sale

In accordance with its strategy to dispose of non-core and under-performing assets, the following assets have been classified as assets held for sale as of June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017:

(in thousands)	Carrying Value
	June 30,		September 30,
	2018		2017
Office Building	$	—	$	3,214
Nursery - Gainesville	—		6,500
Chancey Bay (Citrus Grove)	—		4,179
Gal Hog	—		70
Breeding Herd	—		5,858
Trailers	637		1,162
Island Pond (Citrus Grove)	5,878		—
Rawle (Citrus Grove)	3,680		—
Parcels on East Ranch	100		—
Total Assets Held For Sale	$	10,295	$	20,983

On May 2, 2018, the Company sold its Gal Hog property for approximately $7,300,000 and recognized a gain of approximately $6,709,000.

On March 30, 2018, the Company sold property located on its Winter Haven location for approximately $225,000 and recognized a loss of approximately $50,000. This asset was classified as an asset held for sale during the first quarter of fiscal 2018.

On February 12, 2018, the Company sold its property at Chancey Bay for approximately $4,200,000 and realized a loss of approximately $51,000. As part of the transaction, the Company agreed to pay the purchaser rent of $200,000 in exchange for Alico retaining the rights of harvesting and selling of the fruit in the 2017/2018 harvest season.

On February 9, 2018, the Company sold its nursery located in Gainesville for approximately $6,500,000 and realized a gain of approximately $111,000.

6

On January 25, 2018, the Company sold its breeding herd to a third party for approximately $7,800,000. As part of this transaction, the purchaser is also leasing grazing and other rights on the Alico Ranch from the Company at a rate of $100,000 per month.

On January 19, 2018, the Company sold certain trailers to a third party for $500,000. The Company received $125,000 and the remaining portion is to be paid in accordance with a promissory note, which bears interest at 5%, over three years.

On October 30, 2017, the Company sold its corporate office building in Fort Myers, Florida for $5,300,000 and realized a gain of approximately $1,751,000. The sales agreement provides that the Company lease back a portion of the office space for five years.

The Company recorded an impairment loss in operating expenses of approximately $4,131,000 during fiscal year 2017 on these assets classified as assets held for sale at September 30, 2017.

The Company has used a portion of the proceeds to pay down debt (see Note 5. "Long-Term Debt and Lines of Credit") and repurchase common shares in the open market, and plans to use the remaining cash proceeds from the sale of these assets towards future working capital requirements and other corporate purposes.

In June 2018, the Company's Board of Directors approved listing its Island Pond and Rawle properties, as well as property located on the East Ranch, for sale. As a result, the Company reclassified the net book value of the properties of approximately $9,660,000 to assets held for sale as of June 30, 2018. The estimated fair value of the Island Pond property was less than the net book value, and, as such, the Company recorded an impairment in operating expenses of approximately $1,855,000 as a result of the reclassification. The estimated fair value of the Island Pond property exceeded the net book value, and no impairment was recognized as a result of the reclassification.

On June 29, 2018, the Company executed a contract to sell 1,294 acres for a parcel of property located at the East Ranch for approximately $3,200,000.

Credit Facilities

The Company's credit facilities initially consisted of $125,000,000 in fixed interest rate term loans (“Met Fixed-Rate Term Loans”), $57,500,000 in variable interest rate term loans (“Met Variable-Rate Term Loans”), and a $25,000,000 revolving line of credit (“RLOC”) with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and New England Life Insurance Company (collectively “Met”), and a $70,000,000 working capital line of credit (“WCLC”) with Rabo Agrifinance, Inc. (“Rabo”).

The term loans and RLOC are secured by real property. The security for the term loans and RLOC consists of approximately 38,200 gross acres of citrus groves and 5,762 gross acres of ranch land. The WCLC is collateralized by the Company’s current assets and certain other personal property owned by the Company.

The term loans, collectively, are subject to quarterly principal payments of $2,281,250, and mature November 1, 2029. The Met Fixed-Rate Term Loans bear interest at 4.15% per annum, and the Met Variable-Rate Term Loans bear interest at a rate equal to 90 day LIBOR plus 150 basis points (the “LIBOR spread”). The LIBOR spread was adjusted by the lender on May 1, 2017 and is subject to further adjustment by the lender on May 1, 2019 and every two years thereafter until maturity. Interest on the term loans is payable quarterly.

The interest rates on the Met Variable-Rate Term Loans were 4.01% per annum and 2.96% per annum as of June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. 

The Company may prepay up to $8,750,000 of the Met Fixed-Rate Term Loan principal annually without penalty, and any such prepayments may be applied to reduce subsequent mandatory principal payments. The maximum annual prepayment was made for calendar year 2015. During the first and second quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company elected not to make its principal payment and utilized its prepayment to satisfy its principal payment requirements for such quarters. At June 30, 2018, the Company had $5,625,000 remaining available to reduce future mandatory principal payments should the Company elect to do so. The Met Variable-Rate Term Loans may be prepaid without penalty.

The RLOC bears interest at a floating rate equal to 90 day LIBOR plus 150 basis points, payable quarterly. The LIBOR spread was adjusted by the lender on May 1, 2017 and is subject to further adjustment every two years thereafter. Outstanding principal, if any, is due at maturity on November 1, 2019. The RLOC is subject to an annual commitment fee of 25 basis points on the unused portion of the line of credit. The RLOC is available for funding general corporate needs. The variable interest rate was 4.01% and 2.96% per annum as of June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. Availability under the RLOC was $25,000,000 as of June 30, 2018.

The WCLC is a revolving credit facility and is available for funding working capital and general corporate requirements. The interest rate on the WCLC is based on the one month LIBOR, plus a spread, which is adjusted quarterly, based on the Company's debt service coverage ratio for the preceding quarter and can vary from 175 to 250 basis points. The rate is currently at LIBOR plus 175 basis points. The variable interest rate was 3.73% per annum and 2.99% per annum as of June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. The WCLC agreement was amended on September 30, 2017, and the primary terms of the amendment were an extension of the maturity to November 1, 2019. There were no changes to the commitment amount or interest rate. Availability under the WCLC was approximately $59,700,000 as of June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively.

The WCLC is subject to a quarterly commitment fee on the daily unused availability under the line computed as the commitment amount less the aggregate of the outstanding loans and outstanding letters of credit. The commitment fee is adjusted quarterly based on Alico's debt service coverage ratio for the preceding quarter and can vary from a minimum of 20 basis points to a maximum of 30 basis points. Commitment fees to date have been charged at 20 basis points.

The outstanding balance on the WCLC was $0 at June 30, 2018. The WCLC agreement provides for Rabo to issue up to $20,000,000 in letters of credit on the Company’s behalf. As of June 30, 2018, there was approximately $10,300,000 in outstanding letters of credit, which correspondingly reduced the Company's availability under the line of credit.

These credit facilities noted above are subject to various covenants including the following financial covenants: (i) minimum debt service coverage ratio of 1.10 to 1.00, (ii) tangible net worth of at least $160,000,000 increased annually by 10% of consolidated net income for the preceding year, or approximately $162,300,000 for the year ended September 30, 2017, (iii) minimum current ratio of 1.50 to 1.00, (iv) debt to total assets ratio not greater than .625 to 1.00, and, solely in the case of the WCLC, (v) a limit on capital expenditures of $30,000,000 per fiscal year. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company entered into a Consent and Waiver amendment to the WCLC Agreement to increase the amount of permitted sales allowed and to allow for a sales leaseback transaction. As of June 30, 2018, the Company was in compliance with all of the financial covenants.

The credit facilities also include a Met Life term loan collateralized by real estate owned by Citree (“Met Citree Loan”). This is a $5,000,000 credit facility that bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.28% per annum. An initial advance of $500,000 was made at closing on March 4, 2014. The loan agreement was amended to provide for an interim advance of $2,000,000 on September 17, 2015, and the interest rate was adjusted to 5.30% per annum at the time of the interim advance. The final $2,500,000 advance was funded on April 27, 2016 and the interest rate was adjusted to 5.28%. Principal payments on this term loan commenced February 1, 2018 and are payable quarterly thereafter. The loan matures in February 2029.

Silver Nip Citrus Debt

There are two fixed-rate term loans, with an original combined balance of $27,550,000, bearing interest at 5.35% per annum (“Pru Loans A & B”). Principal of $290,000 is payable quarterly, together with accrued interest. On February 15, 2015, Silver Nip Citrus made a prepayment of $750,000. In addition, the Company made prepayments of approximately $4,453,000 in the second fiscal quarter of 2018 with the sale of certain properties which were collateralized under these loans. The Company may prepay up to $5,000,000 of principal without penalty. As such, the Company exceeded the allowed $5,000,000 prepayment by approximately $203,000 and was required to make a premium payment of approximately $22,000. The loans are collateralized by real estate in Collier, Hardee, Highlands, Martin, Osceola and Polk Counties, Florida and mature on June 1, 2029 and June 1, 2033.

Silver Nip Citrus entered into two additional fixed-rate term loans with Prudential to finance the acquisition of a 1,500 acre citrus grove on September 4, 2014. Each loan was in the original amount of $5,500,000. Principal of $55,000 per loan is payable quarterly, together with accrued interest. One loan bears interest at 3.85% per annum (“Pru Loan E”), while the other bears interest at 3.45% per annum (“Pru Loan F”). The interest rate on Pru Loan E is subject to adjustment on September 1, 2019 and every year thereafter until maturity. Both loans are collateralized by real estate in Charlotte County, Florida. Pru Note E matures September 1, 2021, and Pru Note F matures September 1, 2039.

The Silver Nip Citrus credit agreements were amended on December 1, 2016. The primary terms of the amendments were (1) the Company provided a limited $8,000,000 guaranty of the Silver Nip debt, (2) the limited personal guarantees provided by George Brokaw, Remy Trafelet and Clayton Wilson prior to the Company’s merger with Silver Nip Citrus, and also totaling $8,000,000, were released and (3) the consolidated current ratio covenant requirement was reduced from 1.50 to 1.00 to 1.00 to 1:00. Silver Nip Citrus was in compliance with the current ratio covenant as of June 30, 2018, the most recent measurement date.

Other Modifications of Rabo and Prudential Credit Agreements

In February 2015, Rabo agreed, subject to certain conditions, that the Company may loan Silver Nip Citrus up to $7,000,000 on a revolving basis for cash management purposes. These advances would be funded from either cash on hand or draws on the Company’s WCLC. Silver Nip Citrus has provided a $7,000,000 limited guaranty and security agreement granting Rabo a security interest in crops, accounts receivable, inventory and certain other assets. This modification required the amendment of various Prudential and Rabo loan documents and mortgages.

Note 7.Income Taxes

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) was signed into law. The Act contains significant changes to corporate taxes, including a permanent reduction of the U.S. corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018. The Company’s statutory rate for fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 will be 24.5%, based on a fiscal year blended rate calculation. The 21% U.S. corporate tax rate will apply to fiscal years ending September 30, 2019 and each year thereafter.

Additionally, the Act requires a one-time remeasurement of certain tax related assets and liabilities.  During the first quarter ended December 31, 2017, the Company made certain estimates related to the impact of the Act including the remeasurement of deferred taxes at the new expected tax rate and a revised effective tax rate for the year ended September 30, 2018. The amounts recorded in the nine months ended June 30, 2018 for the remeasurement of deferred taxes principally relate to the reduction in the U.S. corporate income tax rate. During the second and third quarter ended June 30, 2018, the Company made certain updates to the estimates used during the first quarter, which resulted in a change to the remeasurement. For the nine months ended June 30, 2018, the Company has recorded a tax benefit of approximately $10,000,000 to account for these deferred tax impacts.

As of June 30, 2018, the Company has a capital loss carryforward of approximately $24,600,000, which will expire on September 30, 2018. Management believes that it is more likely than not that the full benefit of this deferred tax asset will not be realized. In recognition of this risk, the Company has provided for a valuation allowance for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 of approximately $6,100,000 on the deferred tax asset.

Note 8. Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per share for Alico's common stock is calculated by dividing net income attributable to Alico, Inc. common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share is similarly calculated, except that the calculation includes the dilutive effect of the assumed issuance of common shares issuable under equity-based compensation plans in accordance with the treasury stock method, except where the inclusion of such common shares would have an anti-dilutive impact.

11

For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, basic and diluted earnings per common share were as follows:

(in thousands except per share amounts)
	Three Months Ended June 30,				Nine Months Ended June 30,
	2018		2017		2018		2017
Net income attributable to Alico, Inc. common stockholders	$	9,100	$	5,479	$	12,332	$	9,577
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding - basic	8,228		8,293		8,243		8,315
Dilutive effect of equity-based awards	96		71		71		25
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding - diluted	8,324		8,364		8,314		8,340
Net income per common shares attributable to Alico, Inc. common stockholders:
Basic	$	1.11	$	0.66	$	1.50	$	1.15
Diluted	$	1.09	$	0.66	$	1.48	$	1.15

The computation of diluted earnings per common share for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 includes the impact of certain equity awards because they are dilutive. Such awards are comprised of 750,000 stock options granted to Executive Officers (see Note 12. "Related Party Transactions") during the three months ended December 31, 2016.

Stock Option Grant

On December 31, 2016, the Company entered into new employment agreements (collectively, the “Employment Agreements”) with each of Remy W. Trafelet, Henry R. Slack, and George R. Brokaw (collectively, the “Executives”). Mr. Trafelet serves as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Mr. Slack serves as the Executive Chairman of the Company, and Mr. Brokaw serves as the Executive Vice Chairman of the Company, and each of them continues to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors.

A stock option grant of 300,000 options in the case of Mr. Trafelet and 225,000 options in the case of each of Messrs. Slack and Brokaw (collectively, the “Option Grants”) were granted on December 31, 2016. The option price was set at $27.15, the closing price on December 31, 2016. The Option Grants will vest as follows: (i) 25% of the options will vest if the price of the Company’s common stock during a consecutive 20-trading day period exceeds $60.00; (ii) 25% of the options will vest if such price exceeds $75.00; (iii) 25% of the options will vest if such price exceeds $90.00; and (iv) 25% of the options will vest if such price exceeds $105.00. If the applicable stock price hurdles have not been achieved by (A) the second anniversary of the Executive’s termination of employment, if the Executive’s employment is terminated due to death or disability, (B) the date that is 18 months following the Executive’s termination of employment, if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without cause, by the Executive with good reason, or due to the Executive’s retirement, or (C) the date of the termination of the Executive’s employment for any other reason, then any unvested options will be forfeited. In addition, if the applicable stock price hurdles have not been achieved by the fifth anniversary of the grant date (or the fourth anniversary of the grant date, in the case of the tranche described in clause (i) above), then any unvested options will be forfeited. The Option Grants will also become vested to the extent that the applicable stock price hurdles are satisfied in connection with a change in control of the Company.

Stock compensation expense related to the options totaled approximately $205,000 and $616,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and approximately $205,000 and $411,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. At June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, there was approximately $1,414,000 and $2,030,000 of total unrecognized stock compensation costs related to unvested share-based compensation for the option grants, respectively. The total unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.83 years.

The fair value of the Option Grants was estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. The expected term of options granted is derived from the output of the option valuation model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding; the range given below results from different time-frames for the various market conditions being met.

Expected Volatility	32.19	%
Expected Term (in years)	2.6 - 4.0
Risk Free Rate	24.5	%

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of the Option Grants was $3.53. There were no additional stock options granted, exercised or forfeited for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018.

Business Overview

Business Description

Alico, Inc. (the "Company") generates operating revenues primarily from the sale of its citrus products and conservation and resources operations. The Company operates as three business segments and substantially all of its operating revenues are generated in the United States. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, Alico generated operating revenues of approximately $26,517,000 and $79,650,000, respectively, income from operations of approximately $8,959,000 and $10,415,000, respectively, and net income attributable to common stockholders of approximately $9,100,000 and approximately $12,332,000, respectively. Cash provided by operating activities was approximately $16,119,000 during the nine months ended June 30, 2018.

Business Segments

Operating segments are defined in the criteria established under the Financial Accounting Standards Board - Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) Topic 280 as components of public entities that engage in business activities from which they may earn revenues and incur expenses for which separate financial information is available and which is evaluated regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to assess performance and allocate resources. The Company’s CODM assesses performance and allocates resources based on three operating segments: Alico Citrus (formerly Orange Co.), Conservation and Environmental Resources and Other Operations.

The Company operates three segments related to its various land holdings, as follows:

• Alico Citrus includes activities related to planting, owning, cultivating and/or managing citrus groves in order to produce fruit for sale to fresh and processed citrus markets, including activities related to the purchase and resale of fruit and value-added services, which include contracting for the harvesting, marketing and hauling of citrus;

• Conservation and Environmental Resources includes activities related to sod, native plant sales, leasing, management and/or conservation of unimproved native pasture land; and

18

• Other Operations consists of activities related to rock mining royalties and other insignificant lines of business. Also included are activities related to owning and/or leasing improved farmland. Improved farmland is acreage that has been converted, or is permitted to be converted, from native pasture and which may have various improvements including irrigation, drainage and roads.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations is based upon its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires it to make certain estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Alico bases these estimates on historical experience, available current market information and on various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Additionally, the Company evaluates the results of these estimates on an on-going basis. Management’s estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

There have been no significant changes during this reporting period to the policies and disclosures set forth in Part II, Item 7 in Alico's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017.

See Note 1. "Basis of Presentation" to the condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of Part I of this 10-Q for a detailed description of recent accounting pronouncements.

Recent Developments

On November 16, 2017, Alico announced the Alico 2.0 Modernization Program (“Alico 2.0”). The program is focused on aggressively improving the operations of the Company and optimizing its return on capital employed through cost reductions, increased efficiencies and disposition of under-performing assets. The Program began in early 2017 to transform Alico’s three legacy businesses (Alico, Orange Co., and Silver Nip) into a single efficient enterprise, now called Alico Citrus. Every aspect of Alico’s citrus and ranch operations, all back office support activities, and the productivity of all assets were analyzed to determine how to eliminate costs that will not negatively affect citrus production and also improve performance throughout the Company. The changes required to realize those improvements have now been implemented.

In accordance with Alico 2.0 the Company divested itself from several non-core and underperforming assets during the first nine months of fiscal 2018 as follows:

• sold its Gal Hog property for approximately $7,300,000;

• sold its property at Chancey Bay for approximately $4,200,000. As part of the transaction, the Company agreed to pay the purchaser rent of $200,000 in exchange for Alico retaining the rights of harvesting and selling of the fruit in the 2017/2018 harvest season;

• sold its Nursery located in Gainesville for approximately $6,500,000. The Company continues to operate a nursery in its Joshua location;

• sold its breeding herd to a third party for approximately $7,800,000. As part of this transaction, the purchaser is also leasing grazing and other rights on the Alico Ranch from the Company at a rate of $100,000 per month; and

• sold its corporate office building in Fort Myers, Florida for $5,300,000. The sales agreement provides that the Company will lease back a portion of the office space for five years.

Additionally, there were other lesser-valued assets which the Company has divested itself from during the first nine months of fiscal 2018.

The Company has used a portion of the proceeds to pay down debt and to repurchase common shares in the open market and plans to use the remaining cash proceeds from the sale of these assets towards future working capital requirements and other corporate purposes.

19

In March 2018, the Company and Tropicana amended a citrus purchase agreement with respect to the purchase of citrus oranges. The amendment was focused on pricing calculations over the remainder of the contract, which expires in 2023.

Through August 3, 2018, the Company received insurance proceeds relating to Hurricane Irma of approximately $460,000 for property and casualty damage claims and approximately $8,917,000 for crop claims, which have been recorded in operating expenses. The Company has additional property and casualty and crop insurance claims outstanding and is awaiting determination of additional proceeds to be received.

In addition to the commercial insurance claims which have been submitted, the Company may be eligible for Irma federal relief programs distributed by the Farm Service Agency under the 2017 Wildfires and Hurricane Indemnity Program (2017 WHIP) as well as block grants that will be administered through the State of Florida. The specifics of the programs are still being finalized and at this time, the Company cannot determine the amount of federal relief funds which will be received or when these funds will be disbursed.

Alico primarily sells its Early and Mid-Season and Valencia oranges to processors, who convert the majority of the citrus crop into orange juice. The processors generally buy citrus on a pound solids basis, which is the measure of the soluble solids (sugars and acids) contained in one box of fruit. Fresh fruit is generally sold to packing houses, which purchase citrus on a per box basis. Purchase and resale of fruit relates to the buying of fruit from third parties, and generally reselling this fruit to processors. These revenues and costs vary based on the number of boxes bought and sold. Other revenues consist of third-party grove caretaking, contracting for harvesting and hauling of citrus.

The Company's operating expenses consist primarily of cost of sales and harvesting and hauling costs. Cost of sales represents the cost of maintaining Alico's citrus groves for the preceding calendar year and does not vary in relation to production. Harvesting and hauling costs represent the costs of bringing citrus product to processors and varies based upon the number of boxes produced.

22

Other expenses include the period costs of third-party grove caretaking and the contracting for harvesting and hauling activities, and insurance proceeds received relating to Hurricane Irma.

The decrease in revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2017, was primarily due to the impact of Hurricane Irma. The Company experienced a greater amount of fruit drop from the impact of Hurricane Irma and consequently harvested a smaller number of boxes in fiscal 2018, as compared to the same period in fiscal 2017. The Company also saw an overall decrease in pound solids per box which was 5.64 as compared to 5.87 for the nine months ended June 30, 2017. The Company did experience a smaller fruit drop with respect to its Valencia fruit which is harvested later in the year as compared to the Early and Mid-Season variety and as such realized a smaller reduction in boxes produced. In addition, the decrease in revenue to a smaller extent was due to fewer boxes of fresh fruit being sold for the nine month period ended June 30, 2018.

The decrease in revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily due the timing of when the Valencia fruit was harvested and the impact of Hurricane Irma. As a result of Hurricane Irma, the Company commenced and completed harvesting its Valencia fruit earlier than in the previous year. Accordingly, the Company harvested a smaller number of boxes in the three month period ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017. In addition to the timing, the Company harvested less boxes overall for the Valencia fruit due to the fruit drop caused by Hurricane Irma. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company had 6.10 pound solids per box, which was equivalent to the three month period ended June 30, 2017.

The USDA, in its July 12, 2018 Citrus Crop Forecast for the 2017-18 harvest season, indicated that the Florida orange crop will decrease approximately 34.5% from approximately 68,700,000 boxes for the 2016-17 crop year to approximately 45,000,000 boxes for the 2017-18 crop year. The significant decline is primarily the result of Hurricane Irma and the related fruit loss as well as the continuing effects of citrus greening.

Alico originally estimated its 2018 processed boxes would decrease by approximately 40-45% compared to processed boxes for fiscal year 2017. Based on the harvesting of fruit, which is complete for the fiscal 2018 season, the Company’s box production was down approximately 36%. The improvement is the result of the Valencia variety fruit experiencing less fruit drop then was anticipated upon making the estimate in production.

The decrease in operating expenses for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 is primarily related to the Company harvesting less fruit, compared to the same periods ended June 30, 2017. The Company also had less inventory costs accumulated to expense throughout fiscal 2018 as a result of the inventory casualty loss adjustment of approximately $14,000,000 recorded in the quarter ended September 30, 2017 due to the impact of Hurricane Irma.

Additionally, the decrease in operating expenses for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 was the receipt of insurance proceeds relating to Hurricane Irma of approximately $460,000 for property and casualty damage claims and approximately $3,725,000 for crop claims. Subsequent to June 30, 2018, the Company has received additional insurance proceeds of approximately $5,192,000 relating to crop claims. The Company has additional property and casualty and crop insurance claims outstanding and is awaiting determination of additional proceeds to be received.

Alico 2.0 explored every aspect of Alico’s citrus and ranch operations, including corporate and operational cost structures, grove costs, purchasing and procurement, non-performing and under-performing assets, professional fees, and human resources efficiency. As previously mentioned, under this program the Company expects to reduce total expenses per acre from $3,314/acre in fiscal 2016 to $2,164/acre when Alico 2.0 is fully implemented over the next two years. Overall, the program should reduce the Company’s cost to produce a pound solid from $2.14 to $1.56. This efficiency is being achieved through better purchasing, more precise application of selected fertilizers and chemicals, outsourcing work such as harvesting, hauling, and certain caretaking tasks, and by streamlining grove management. The Company will also deploy a more efficient labor model that is consistent and uniform for field staffing and grove operating programs, and aligns with the geographical footprint of the citrus groves. However, there can be no assurance that the anticipated cost savings will be realized under Alico 2.0.

Ranch

During the nine month period ended June 30, 2018, the Company sold its breeding herd and leased the ranch to a third party operator. The Company continues to own the property and conduct its long term water dispersement and wildlife management programs. As a result of this leasing agreement, which generates $1,200,000 per annum, the Company recorded an increase in land leasing revenue as compared to the same period in the prior year.

The decrease in revenues from the sale of calves for the nine months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2017, is primarily due to the sale of the breeding herd and cattle business during 2018, a decrease in the number of calves sold and a decrease in the price per pound.

The cost of calves sold, which represented the cost of maintaining the calves for the preceding year, was expensed upon the sale of the breeding herd in January 2018.

Conservation

In December 2012, the South Florida Water Management District ("SFWMD" or "District") issued a solicitation request for projects to be considered for the Northern Everglades Payment for Environmental Services Program. In March 2013, the Company submitted its response proposing a dispersed water management project on a portion of its ranch land.

On December 11, 2014, the SFWMD approved a contract with the Company. The contract term is eleven years and allows up to one year for implementation (design, permitting, construction and construction completion certification) and ten years of operation, whereby the Company will provide water retention services. Payment for these services includes an amount not to exceed $4,000,000 of reimbursement for implementation. In addition, it provides for an annual fixed payment of $12,000,000 for operations and maintenance costs, as long as the project is in compliance with the contract and subject to annual District Board approval of funding. The contract specifies that the District Board has to approve the payments annually and there can be no assurance that it will approve

24

the annual fixed payments. The Florida budget for the State’s 2017/2018 fiscal year was approved and included funding for the Program. Operating expenses were approximately $496,000 and $373,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and approximately $1,263,000 and $1,475,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2018 totaled approximately $2,955,000, compared to approximately $3,709,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The decrease was impacted by a decrease in payroll costs of approximately $228,000, resulting primarily from a reduction in personnel and overtime costs, as well as a reduction of professional fees of approximately $225,000, primarily driven by a reduction in legal fees. Additionally, a one-time payment made for separation and consulting fees of approximately $188,000 and recruitment fees for executive and other personnel of approximately $80,000 were incurred during the three month period ended June 30, 2017, which were not incurred in the same period in fiscal 2018.

General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 totaled approximately $9,914,000, compared to approximately $10,896,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2017. The decrease was mainly due to higher expenses incurred during the nine months ended June 30, 2017 that included one-time consulting fees of approximately $900,000, separation fees of approximately $290,000 and recruitment fees for executive and other personnel of approximately $200,000, which were not incurred for the same period in fiscal 2018. These decreases were partially offset by an accrual for paid time off of $280,000, which was not recorded in the same period for fiscal 2017, and increased rent expense of approximately $225,000. The increase in rent expense is primarily due to the Company selling its corporate office building in Fort Myers, Florida and leasing a portion of the space back.

Other (Expense) Income, net

Other (expense) income, net, for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were approximately $5,074,000 and approximately $(2,162,000), respectively. The increase is primarily due to the Company recording a higher gain on sale of real estate, property and equipment and assets held for sale for the three months ended June 30, 2018. For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded a gain on sale of real estate, property and equipment of approximately $7,248,000 and $157,000, respectively. The gain on sale of real estate, property and equipment for the three months ended June 30, 2018 primarily relates to the sale of Gal Hog that resulted in a gain of approximately $6,709,000.

Other (expense) income, net, for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $2,559,000 and approximately $(5,055,000), respectively. The increase is primarily due recording a higher gain on sale of real estate, property and equipment and assets held for sale. For the nine months ended June 30, 2018, the Company sold certain properties and equipment which included its corporate office building in Fort Myers, Florida and its Gal Hog property resulting in gains of approximately $1,751,000 and $6,709,000, respectively. During the nine months ended June 30, 2017, the Company sold 49 acres of land and facilities in Hendry County, Florida, which resulted in a gain of approximately $1,371,000. Additionally, the Company incurred less interest expense of approximately $240,000 due to the continued pay-down of its long-term debt, as well as a prepayment made on a loan of approximately $4,450,000 with the proceeds from the asset sales.

Income Taxes

The provision for income tax was approximately $4,941,000 and $3,665,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, and a tax provision of approximately $674,000 and approximately $6,713,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The tax provision for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 primarily resulted from the Company generating net income, which was adjusted by a $3,900,000 offset. This offset consists of approximately $10,000,000 in non-cash tax benefit resulting from the remeasurement of the Company's net deferred tax liabilities to the 21% corporate tax rate that was enacted December 22, 2017, and a valuation allowance on its capital loss carryforward of approximately $6,100,000, resulting in an additional income tax expense.

Seasonality

Historically, the second and third quarters of Alico's fiscal year produce the majority of its annual revenue. Working capital requirements are typically greater in the first and fourth quarters of the fiscal year, coinciding with harvesting cycles. Due to Hurricane Irma, in the third quarter of fiscal 2018 Alico produced a smaller percentage of boxes harvested, as compared to the estimated totals for the full harvest season, then in past years. As a result, the working capital requirements may vary from the typical trends it has historically experienced in the current year. Because of the seasonality of the business, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full fiscal year.

A comparative balance sheet summary is presented in the following table:

(in thousands)	June 30,		September 30,
	2018		2017		Change
Cash and cash equivalents	$	26,553	$	3,395	$	23,158
Total current assets	$	77,928	$	66,489	$	11,439
Total current liabilities	$	15,515	$	15,983	$	(468	)

Principal amount of term loans and lines of credit	$	177,055	$	186,476	$	(9,421	)
Current ratio	5.02 to 1		4.16 to 1

Management believes that a combination of cash-on-hand, cash generated from operations, assets sales and availability under the Company's lines of credit will provide sufficient liquidity to service the principal and interest payments on its indebtedness, and will satisfy working capital requirements and capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months and over the long term. Alico has a $70,000,000 working capital line of credit, of which approximately $59,700,000 is available for general use as of June 30, 2018, and a $25,000,000 revolving line of credit, all of which is available for general use as of June 30, 2018 (see Note 5. “Long-Term Debt and Lines of Credit" to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). If the Company pursues significant growth and other corporate opportunities, it could have a material adverse impact on its cash balances, and may need to finance such activities by drawing down monies under its lines of credit or by obtaining additional debt or equity financing. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to the Company when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. Any inability to obtain additional financing could impact Alico's ability to pursue different growth and other corporate opportunities.

The level of debt could have important consequences on Alico's business, including, but not limited to, increasing its vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, limiting the availability of cash flow to fund future investments, capital expenditures, working capital, business activities and other general corporate requirements, and limiting flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in its business and industry.

Net Cash Provided By Operating Activities

The following table details the items contributing to Net Cash Provided By Operating Activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:

(in thousands)	Nine Months Ended June 30,

Net cash provided by operating activities	$	16,119		$	28,900		$	(12,781	)

The decrease in net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017, was primarily due to the Company recognizing a greater gain on sale of real estate, property and equipment and assets held for sale as a result of the Company’s decision to divest itself from several non-core and underperforming assets during the first

26

nine months of fiscal 2018. Additionally, the Company realized a decrease in working capital as compared to the previous year. This is primarily the result of the Company having a smaller increase in accounts receivable due to lower revenues earned, and a smaller decrease in inventory levels due the Company taking an impairment on its inventory levels at September 30, 2017, which directly impacted the change for the nine month period ended June 30, 2018.

Due to the seasonal nature of Alico's business, working capital requirements are typically greater in the first and fourth quarters of its fiscal year. Cash flows from operating activities typically improve in the second and third fiscal quarters as its citrus crops are harvested.

Net Cash Provided By (Used In) Investing Activities

The following table details the items contributing to Net Cash Provided By (Used In) Investing Activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities	$	19,163		$	(8,279	)	$	27,442

The increase in net cash provided by (used in) investing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2017, was primarily due to proceeds received from the sale of certain assets made during the first nine months ended June 30, 2018. This increase was partially offset by greater capital expenditures in the nine months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the same period in the prior year, as a result of the Company’s decision to plant more trees.

Net Cash Used In Financing Activities

The following table details the items contributing to Net Cash Used In Financing Activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:

(in thousands)	Nine Months Ended June 30,

Net cash used in financing activities	$	(12,124	)	$	(17,302	)	$	5,178

27

The decrease in net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2017, was primarily due to decreased repayments on the revolving line of credit, which was partially offset by less borrowings being made on the revolving lines of credit. Additionally, greater principal payments were made on the term loans of approximately $4,500,000 from a portion of the proceeds from the sale of assets, which was offset by the Company electing not to make its principal payment on certain other term loans for the first and second quarter of fiscal 2018 of approximately $3,100,000 as it utilized its prepayment to satisfy its payment requirement.

Alico had no amounts outstanding on its revolving lines of credit as of June 30, 2018.

The WCLC agreement provides for Rabo to issue up to $20,000,000 in letters of credit on the Company’s behalf. As of June 30, 2018, there was approximately $10,300,000 in outstanding letters of credit, which correspondingly reduced Alico's availability under the line of credit.

As a result of Hurricane Irma, the Company experienced fruit loss during September 2017. As discussed in Alico's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, the Company anticipated revenue and cash flow will be negatively impacted. The Company originally estimated a 40-45% reduction in production as compared to the prior season completed June 2017. Based on the harvesting of fruit, which is complete for the fiscal 2018 season, the Company’s box production was down approximately 36%. The improvement is the result of the Valencia variety fruit experiencing less fruit drop then was anticipated upon making the estimate in production.

Purchase Commitments

The Company enters into contracts for the purchase of citrus trees during the normal course of its business. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had approximately $2,678,000 relating to outstanding commitments for these purchases, which will be paid upon delivery.

WHEREAS, Purchaser has requested that Supplier provide such Services (as hereinafter defined) on an at-cost basis;

ARTICLE II

COMPENSATION

2.1     Fees.

(a) General Shared Service Fees. In consideration of the Services, during the Term of this Agreement, Purchaser will pay Supplier an amount equal to Supplier’s actual costs of providing the Services as a base shared services fee. Such base shared services fee shall include internal allocations, as determined by Supplier in consultation with Purchaser, and a prorated portion of any security deposit, rent, utilities, telecommunications, phone, information technology infrastructure and support, leasehold improvements, property taxes, office supplies and similar payments actually paid by Supplier in respect of the Shared Office determined by multiplying the amounts paid by Supplier by the percentage of the Shared Office used by Purchaser. All such expenses and payments shall be fully supported with reasonable documentation and copies of all such documentation shall be provided to Purchaser upon Purchaser’s reasonable request to the extent required to support such expenses and payments.

(b) On or before December 1 of each year of the Term of this Agreement, Supplier and Purchaser shall jointly agree on an estimate of Supplier’s fees for each functional category of Service set forth in Section 1.1(b) to be provided pursuant this Agreement for the next calendar year; provided, that to the extent such fees cannot be determined, as to such unknown fees, Supplier shall set out the basis on which they shall be charged. It is understood and agreed that all fees charged

2

to Purchaser for any particular month shall be no greater than Supplier’s actual costs of providing such Services during such month, as determined pursuant to Section 2.1(a). Attached as Annex A is an estimate of such costs, on a monthly basis, during the period beginning on January 1 and ending on December 31, 2018.

2.2    Invoice and Payment Procedures. Purchaser shall pay Supplier all fees described herein for Services hereunder on a quarterly basis by means of wire transfer of immediately available funds transfer from Purchaser’s account to Supplier’s designated account. Supplier shall provide Purchaser with a written invoice of charges for such fees and out-of-pocket and pre-paid expenses (unless such expenses are already included in the relevant fees) on a monthly basis. Purchaser shall pay each such invoice within thirty (30) days of receipt. In the event of any dispute between Supplier and Purchaser over the amounts due for Services rendered, such disputed amounts shall, upon resolution of the dispute, be credited to or debited from Purchaser’s account against future payments for Services or paid in cash after termination of this Agreement.

2.3    Purchaser Audit Rights.

TERM AND TERMINATION

3.1    Term. This Agreement shall take effect retroactive from January 1, 2018 and will continue in force until December 31, 2018 (“Initial Term”), subject to earlier termination as provided in Section 3.2 hereof, and thereafter, this Agreement will be automatically renewed for additional periods of one (1) year each (“Additional Term(s)”).

3.2    Termination. This Agreement or an entire functional category of Services may be terminated in accordance with the following provisions (Purchaser will have no right to terminate any Services within a specific functional category of Services):

(a)    Either party hereto may terminate this Agreement at any time upon the occurrence of an event of bankruptcy with respect to the other party;

(b)    Either party may terminate this Agreement, or a particular functional category of Services by giving notice in writing to the other party in the event the other party is in material breach of this Agreement and has failed to cure such breach within ninety (90) calendar days of receipt of written

3

notice thereof from the other party; provided, that, to the extent such material breach relates to a specific Service or specific Services, this Agreement may only be terminated with respect to such Service or Services;

(c)    This Agreement, any Service or functional category of Services may be terminated by the mutual written consent of the parties, which mutual consent may terminate this Agreement in its entirety or terminate this Agreement in part by terminating a specific functional category of Services; or

In the event such termination would result in a breach by Supplier of a third party obligation, the parties agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve or prevent the breach in a manner which will allow the Purchaser to proceed with termination of the Service.

3.3    Rights and Obligations on Termination. In the event of termination of this Agreement or a particular functional category of Services for any reason, the parties will have the following rights and obligations:

(a)    Termination will not release either party from the obligation to make payment of all amounts then or thereafter due and owing for Services already provided; and

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

Alico, Inc. (“Alico”), together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company", "we", "us" or "our”), is a Florida agribusiness and land management company owning approximately 117,000 acres of land throughout Florida, including approximately 90,000 acres of mineral rights. The Company manages its land based upon its primary usage, and reviews its performance based upon two primary classifications - Alico Citrus (formerly Orange Co.) and Conservation and Environmental Resources. Financial results are presented based upon its three business segments (Alico Citrus, Conservation and Environmental Resources and Other Operations). 

Basis of Presentation

The Company has prepared the accompanying financial statements on a condensed consolidated basis. These accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, which are referred to herein as the “Financial Statements", have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial information. These Financial Statements do not include all of the disclosures required for complete annual financial statements and, accordingly, certain information, footnotes and disclosures normally included in annual financial statements, prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, have been condensed or omitted in accordance with SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, the Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, as filed with the SEC on December 11, 2017.

The Financial Statements presented in this Form 10-Q are unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, such Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP applicable to interim periods.

Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current fiscal year ending September 30, 2018. All intercompany transactions and account balances between the consolidated businesses have been eliminated.

Segments

Operating segments are defined in the criteria established under the Financial Accounting Standards Board - Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) Topic 280 as components of public entities that engage in business activities from which they may earn revenues and incur expenses for which separate financial information is available and which is evaluated regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to assess performance and allocate resources. The Company’s CODM assesses performance and allocates resources based on three operating segments: Alico Citrus (formerly Orange Co.), Conservation and Environmental Resources and Other Operations.

Principles of Consolidation

The Financial Statements include the accounts of Alico, Inc. and the accounts of all the subsidiaries in which a controlling interest is held by the Company. Under U.S. GAAP, consolidation is generally required for investments of more than 50% of the outstanding voting stock of an investee, except when control is not held by the majority owner. The Company’s subsidiaries include: Alico Land Development, Inc., Alico-Agri, Ltd., Alico Plant World, LLC, Alico Fruit Company, LLC, Alico Citrus Nursery, LLC, Alico Chemical Sales, LLC, 734 Citrus Holdings LLC and subsidiaries, Alico Fresh Fruit LLC, Alico Skink Mitigation, LLC and Citree Holdings 1, LLC. The Company considers the criteria established under FASB ASC Topic 810, “Consolidations”in its consolidation process. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the accompanying Financial Statements, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses and cash flows during the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates based upon future events. The Company evaluates estimates on an ongoing basis. The estimates are based on current and expected economic conditions, historical experience, the experience and judgment of the Company’s management and various other specific assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable. The Company evaluates its assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis and may employ outside experts to assist in the Company’s evaluations.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in the accompanying Financial Statements for consistent presentation to the current period. These reclassifications had no impact on net income, equity, cash flows or working capital.

Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Subsidiary

The Financial Statements include all assets and liabilities of the less-than-100%-owned subsidiary the Company controls, Citree Holdings I, LLC (“Citree”). Accordingly, the Company has recorded a noncontrolling interest in the equity of such entity. Citree had a net loss of approximately $15,000 for each of the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and a net loss of approximately $65,000 and net income of approximately $73,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, of which 51% is attributable to the Company.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” as a new ASC topic (Topic 606). The core principle of this ASU is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU further provides guidance for any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (for example, lease contracts). The FASB subsequently issued ASU 2015-14 to defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 until annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, with earlier adoption permitted. The FASB also recently issued ASU 2016-10, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing," and 2016-12, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients," that clarify or amend the original Topic 606. ASU 2014-09 can be adopted using one of two retrospective transition methods: 1) retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or 2) as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company has reviewed ASU 2014-09 and does not expect this new guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Seasonality

Historically, the second and third quarters of Alico's fiscal year produce the majority of the Company's annual revenue. Working capital requirements are typically greater in the first and fourth quarters of the fiscal year, coinciding with harvesting cycles. Due to Hurricane Irma, in the three months ended June 30, 2018, Alico produced a smaller percentage of boxes harvested, as compared to the estimated totals for the full harvest season, than in past years. As a result, the working capital requirements varied from the typical trends historically experienced in the current year. Because of the seasonality of the business, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full fiscal year.

The Company records its inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 the Company recorded a net realizable adjustment on inventories of approximately $110,000. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017, the Company did not record any adjustments to reduce inventory to net realizable value. 

On January 25, 2018, the Company sold its breeding herd to a third party and as a result the value of the Beef Cattle inventory was expensed.

In September 2017, the State of Florida's citrus business, including the Company's unharvested citrus crop, was significantly impacted by Hurricane Irma. For the year ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded a casualty loss on its inventory. In calculating this casualty loss, the Company made certain estimates. As of June 30, 2018, there were no revisions to these estimates which required any further inventory losses to be recorded.

In the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, the Company received insurance proceeds relating to Hurricane Irma of approximately $460,000 for property and casualty damage claims and approximately $3,725,000 for crop claims. Subsequent to June 30, 2018, the Company has received approximately $5,192,000 in additional insurance proceeds relating to crop claims, which have been recorded in operating expenses. The Company has additional property and casualty and crop insurance claims outstanding and is awaiting determination of additional proceeds to be received.

In addition to the commercial insurance claims which have been submitted, the Company may be eligible for Irma federal relief programs distributed by the Farm Service Agency under the 2017 Wildfires and Hurricane Indemnity Program (2017 WHIP) as well as block grants that will be administered through the State of Florida.  The specifics of these programs are still being finalized, and at this time, the Company cannot determine the amount of federal relief funds, if any, which will be received or when these funds will be disbursed.

On March 30, 2018, the Company sold property located on its Winter Haven location for approximately $225,000 and recognized a loss of approximately $50,000. This asset was classified as an asset held for sale during the first quarter of fiscal 2018.

On February 12, 2018, the Company sold its property at Chancey Bay for approximately $4,200,000 and realized a loss of approximately $51,000. As part of the transaction, the Company agreed to pay the purchaser rent of $200,000 in exchange for Alico retaining the rights of harvesting and selling of the fruit in the 2017/2018 harvest season.

On February 9, 2018, the Company sold its nursery located in Gainesville for approximately $6,500,000 and realized a gain of approximately $111,000.

On January 25, 2018, the Company sold its breeding herd to a third party for approximately $7,800,000. As part of this transaction, the purchaser is also leasing grazing and other rights on the Alico Ranch from the Company at a rate of $100,000 per month.

On January 19, 2018, the Company sold certain trailers to a third party for $500,000. The Company received $125,000 and the remaining portion is to be paid in accordance with a promissory note, which bears interest at 5%, over three years.

On October 30, 2017, the Company sold its corporate office building in Fort Myers, Florida for $5,300,000 and realized a gain of approximately $1,751,000. The sales agreement provides that the Company lease back a portion of the office space for five years.

The Company recorded an impairment loss in operating expenses of approximately $4,131,000 during fiscal year 2017 on these assets classified as assets held for sale at September 30, 2017.

The Company has used a portion of the proceeds to pay down debt (see Note 5. "Long-Term Debt and Lines of Credit") and repurchase common shares in the open market, and plans to use the remaining cash proceeds from the sale of these assets towards future working capital requirements and other corporate purposes.

In June 2018, the Company's Board of Directors approved listing its Island Pond and Rawle properties, as well as property located on the East Ranch, for sale. As a result, the Company reclassified the net book value of the properties of approximately $9,660,000 to assets held for sale as of June 30, 2018. The estimated fair value of the Island Pond property was less than the net book value, and, as such, the Company recorded an impairment in operating expenses of approximately $1,855,000 as a result of the reclassification. The estimated fair value of the Island Pond property exceeded the net book value, and no impairment was recognized as a result of the reclassification.

On June 29, 2018, the Company executed a contract to sell 1,294 acres for a parcel of property located at the East Ranch for approximately $3,200,000.

Credit Facilities

The Company's credit facilities initially consisted of $125,000,000 in fixed interest rate term loans (“Met Fixed-Rate Term Loans”), $57,500,000 in variable interest rate term loans (“Met Variable-Rate Term Loans”), and a $25,000,000 revolving line of credit (“RLOC”) with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and New England Life Insurance Company (collectively “Met”), and a $70,000,000 working capital line of credit (“WCLC”) with Rabo Agrifinance, Inc. (“Rabo”).

The term loans and RLOC are secured by real property. The security for the term loans and RLOC consists of approximately 38,200 gross acres of citrus groves and 5,762 gross acres of ranch land. The WCLC is collateralized by the Company’s current assets and certain other personal property owned by the Company.

The term loans, collectively, are subject to quarterly principal payments of $2,281,250, and mature November 1, 2029. The Met Fixed-Rate Term Loans bear interest at 4.15% per annum, and the Met Variable-Rate Term Loans bear interest at a rate equal to 90 day LIBOR plus 150 basis points (the “LIBOR spread”). The LIBOR spread was adjusted by the lender on May 1, 2017 and is subject to further adjustment by the lender on May 1, 2019 and every two years thereafter until maturity. Interest on the term loans is payable quarterly.

The interest rates on the Met Variable-Rate Term Loans were 4.01% per annum and 2.96% per annum as of June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. 

The Company may prepay up to $8,750,000 of the Met Fixed-Rate Term Loan principal annually without penalty, and any such prepayments may be applied to reduce subsequent mandatory principal payments. The maximum annual prepayment was made for calendar year 2015. During the first and second quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company elected not to make its principal payment and utilized its prepayment to satisfy its principal payment requirements for such quarters. At June 30, 2018, the Company had $5,625,000 remaining available to reduce future mandatory principal payments should the Company elect to do so. The Met Variable-Rate Term Loans may be prepaid without penalty.

The RLOC bears interest at a floating rate equal to 90 day LIBOR plus 150 basis points, payable quarterly. The LIBOR spread was adjusted by the lender on May 1, 2017 and is subject to further adjustment every two years thereafter. Outstanding principal, if any, is due at maturity on November 1, 2019. The RLOC is subject to an annual commitment fee of 25 basis points on the unused portion of the line of credit. The RLOC is available for funding general corporate needs. The variable interest rate was 4.01% and 2.96% per annum as of June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. Availability under the RLOC was $25,000,000 as of June 30, 2018.

The WCLC is a revolving credit facility and is available for funding working capital and general corporate requirements. The interest rate on the WCLC is based on the one month LIBOR, plus a spread, which is adjusted quarterly, based on the Company's debt service coverage ratio for the preceding quarter and can vary from 175 to 250 basis points. The rate is currently at LIBOR plus 175 basis points. The variable interest rate was 3.73% per annum and 2.99% per annum as of June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively. The WCLC agreement was amended on September 30, 2017, and the primary terms of the amendment were an extension of the maturity to November 1, 2019. There were no changes to the commitment amount or interest rate. Availability under the WCLC was approximately $59,700,000 as of June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively.

The WCLC is subject to a quarterly commitment fee on the daily unused availability under the line computed as the commitment amount less the aggregate of the outstanding loans and outstanding letters of credit. The commitment fee is adjusted quarterly based on Alico's debt service coverage ratio for the preceding quarter and can vary from a minimum of 20 basis points to a maximum of 30 basis points. Commitment fees to date have been charged at 20 basis points.

The outstanding balance on the WCLC was $0 at June 30, 2018. The WCLC agreement provides for Rabo to issue up to $20,000,000 in letters of credit on the Company’s behalf. As of June 30, 2018, there was approximately $10,300,000 in outstanding letters of credit, which correspondingly reduced the Company's availability under the line of credit.

These credit facilities noted above are subject to various covenants including the following financial covenants: (i) minimum debt service coverage ratio of 1.10 to 1.00, (ii) tangible net worth of at least $160,000,000 increased annually by 10% of consolidated net income for the preceding year, or approximately $162,300,000 for the year ended September 30, 2017, (iii) minimum current ratio of 1.50 to 1.00, (iv) debt to total assets ratio not greater than .625 to 1.00, and, solely in the case of the WCLC, (v) a limit on capital expenditures of $30,000,000 per fiscal year. During the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company entered into a Consent and Waiver amendment to the WCLC Agreement to increase the amount of permitted sales allowed and to allow for a sales leaseback transaction. As of June 30, 2018, the Company was in compliance with all of the financial covenants.

The credit facilities also include a Met Life term loan collateralized by real estate owned by Citree (“Met Citree Loan”). This is a $5,000,000 credit facility that bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.28% per annum. An initial advance of $500,000 was made at closing on March 4, 2014. The loan agreement was amended to provide for an interim advance of $2,000,000 on September 17, 2015, and the interest rate was adjusted to 5.30% per annum at the time of the interim advance. The final $2,500,000 advance was funded on April 27, 2016 and the interest rate was adjusted to 5.28%. Principal payments on this term loan commenced February 1, 2018 and are payable quarterly thereafter. The loan matures in February 2029.

Silver Nip Citrus Debt

There are two fixed-rate term loans, with an original combined balance of $27,550,000, bearing interest at 5.35% per annum (“Pru Loans A & B”). Principal of $290,000 is payable quarterly, together with accrued interest. On February 15, 2015, Silver Nip Citrus made a prepayment of $750,000. In addition, the Company made prepayments of approximately $4,453,000 in the second fiscal quarter of 2018 with the sale of certain properties which were collateralized under these loans. The Company may prepay up to $5,000,000 of principal without penalty. As such, the Company exceeded the allowed $5,000,000 prepayment by approximately $203,000 and was required to make a premium payment of approximately $22,000. The loans are collateralized by real estate in Collier, Hardee, Highlands, Martin, Osceola and Polk Counties, Florida and mature on June 1, 2029 and June 1, 2033.

Silver Nip Citrus entered into two additional fixed-rate term loans with Prudential to finance the acquisition of a 1,500 acre citrus grove on September 4, 2014. Each loan was in the original amount of $5,500,000. Principal of $55,000 per loan is payable quarterly, together with accrued interest. One loan bears interest at 3.85% per annum (“Pru Loan E”), while the other bears interest at 3.45% per annum (“Pru Loan F”). The interest rate on Pru Loan E is subject to adjustment on September 1, 2019 and every year thereafter until maturity. Both loans are collateralized by real estate in Charlotte County, Florida. Pru Note E matures September 1, 2021, and Pru Note F matures September 1, 2039.

The Silver Nip Citrus credit agreements were amended on December 1, 2016. The primary terms of the amendments were (1) the Company provided a limited $8,000,000 guaranty of the Silver Nip debt, (2) the limited personal guarantees provided by George Brokaw, Remy Trafelet and Clayton Wilson prior to the Company’s merger with Silver Nip Citrus, and also totaling $8,000,000, were released and (3) the consolidated current ratio covenant requirement was reduced from 1.50 to 1.00 to 1.00 to 1:00. Silver Nip Citrus was in compliance with the current ratio covenant as of June 30, 2018, the most recent measurement date.

Other Modifications of Rabo and Prudential Credit Agreements

In February 2015, Rabo agreed, subject to certain conditions, that the Company may loan Silver Nip Citrus up to $7,000,000 on a revolving basis for cash management purposes. These advances would be funded from either cash on hand or draws on the Company’s WCLC. Silver Nip Citrus has provided a $7,000,000 limited guaranty and security agreement granting Rabo a security interest in crops, accounts receivable, inventory and certain other assets. This modification required the amendment of various Prudential and Rabo loan documents and mortgages.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) was signed into law. The Act contains significant changes to corporate taxes, including a permanent reduction of the U.S. corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018. The Company’s statutory rate for fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 will be 24.5%, based on a fiscal year blended rate calculation. The 21% U.S. corporate tax rate will apply to fiscal years ending September 30, 2019 and each year thereafter.

Additionally, the Act requires a one-time remeasurement of certain tax related assets and liabilities.  During the first quarter ended December 31, 2017, the Company made certain estimates related to the impact of the Act including the remeasurement of deferred taxes at the new expected tax rate and a revised effective tax rate for the year ended September 30, 2018. The amounts recorded in the nine months ended June 30, 2018 for the remeasurement of deferred taxes principally relate to the reduction in the U.S. corporate income tax rate. During the second and third quarter ended June 30, 2018, the Company made certain updates to the estimates used during the first quarter, which resulted in a change to the remeasurement. For the nine months ended June 30, 2018, the Company has recorded a tax benefit of approximately $10,000,000 to account for these deferred tax impacts.

As of June 30, 2018, the Company has a capital loss carryforward of approximately $24,600,000, which will expire on September 30, 2018. Management believes that it is more likely than not that the full benefit of this deferred tax asset will not be realized. In recognition of this risk, the Company has provided for a valuation allowance for the nine months ended June 30, 2018 of approximately $6,100,000 on the deferred tax asset.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Common Share

Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per share for Alico's common stock is calculated by dividing net income attributable to Alico, Inc. common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share is similarly calculated, except that the calculation includes the dilutive effect of the assumed issuance of common shares issuable under equity-based compensation plans in accordance with the treasury stock method, except where the inclusion of such common shares would have an anti-dilutive impact.

For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, basic and diluted earnings per common share were as follows:

The computation of diluted earnings per common share for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 includes the impact of certain equity awards because they are dilutive. Such awards are comprised of 750,000 stock options granted to Executive Officers (see Note 12. "Related Party Transactions") during the three months ended December 31, 2016.

Equity [Abstract]

Stockholders' Equity

Stockholders' Equity

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for (i) Board of Directors fees (paid in treasury stock), and (ii) the Stock Incentive Plan of 2015 (paid in restricted stock and stock options). Stock-based compensation expense is recognized in general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Stock Compensation - Board of Directors

The Board of Directors can either elect to receive stock compensation or cash for their fees for services provided. Stock-based compensation expense relating to the Board of Director fees was approximately $238,000 and $621,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, and approximately $163,000 and $581,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.

Restricted Stock

In fiscal year 2015, the Company awarded 12,500 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock (“Restricted Stock”) to two senior executives under the 2015 Plan at a weighted average fair value of $49.49 per common share, vesting over three to five years. 

In November 2017, a senior executive was awarded 5,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock (“Restricted Stock”) under the 2015 Plan at a weighted average fair value of $31.95 per common share, vesting over approximately three years.

Stock compensation expense related to the Restricted Stock totaled approximately $37,000 and $100,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and approximately $27,000 and $238,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. There was approximately $209,000 and $149,000 of total unrecognized stock compensation costs related to unvested stock compensation for the Restricted Stock grants at June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively.

Stock Option Grant

On December 31, 2016, the Company entered into new employment agreements (collectively, the “Employment Agreements”) with each of Remy W. Trafelet, Henry R. Slack, and George R. Brokaw (collectively, the “Executives”). Mr. Trafelet serves as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Mr. Slack serves as the Executive Chairman of the Company, and Mr. Brokaw serves as the Executive Vice Chairman of the Company, and each of them continues to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors.

A stock option grant of 300,000 options in the case of Mr. Trafelet and 225,000 options in the case of each of Messrs. Slack and Brokaw (collectively, the “Option Grants”) were granted on December 31, 2016. The option price was set at $27.15, the closing price on December 31, 2016. The Option Grants will vest as follows: (i) 25% of the options will vest if the price of the Company’s common stock during a consecutive 20-trading day period exceeds $60.00; (ii) 25% of the options will vest if such price exceeds $75.00; (iii) 25% of the options will vest if such price exceeds $90.00; and (iv) 25% of the options will vest if such price exceeds $105.00. If the applicable stock price hurdles have not been achieved by (A) the second anniversary of the Executive’s termination of employment, if the Executive’s employment is terminated due to death or disability, (B) the date that is 18 months following the Executive’s termination of employment, if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without cause, by the Executive with good reason, or due to the Executive’s retirement, or (C) the date of the termination of the Executive’s employment for any other reason, then any unvested options will be forfeited. In addition, if the applicable stock price hurdles have not been achieved by the fifth anniversary of the grant date (or the fourth anniversary of the grant date, in the case of the tranche described in clause (i) above), then any unvested options will be forfeited. The Option Grants will also become vested to the extent that the applicable stock price hurdles are satisfied in connection with a change in control of the Company.

Stock compensation expense related to the options totaled approximately $205,000 and $616,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, and approximately $205,000 and $411,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017, respectively. At June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, there was approximately $1,414,000 and $2,030,000 of total unrecognized stock compensation costs related to unvested share-based compensation for the option grants, respectively. The total unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.83 years.

The fair value of the Option Grants was estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. The expected term of options granted is derived from the output of the option valuation model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding; the range given below results from different time-frames for the various market conditions being met.

Expected Volatility	32.19	%
Expected Term (in years)	2.6 - 4.0
Risk Free Rate	24.5	%

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of the Option Grants was $3.53. There were no additional stock options granted, exercised or forfeited for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018.

Stock Repurchase Authorizations

In fiscal year 2017, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $7,000,000 of the Company’s common stock in two separate authorizations (the "2017 Authorization"). In March 2017, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $5,000,000 of the Company’s common stock beginning March 9, 2017 and continuing through March 9, 2019. In May 2017, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $2,000,000 of the Company’s common stock beginning May 24, 2017 and continuing through May 24, 2019. The stock repurchases made under this repurchase were made through open market transactions at times and in such amounts as the Company’s broker determined subject to the provisions of SEC Rule 10b-18.

For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2018, the Company purchased 64,741 shares at a cost of $2,009,117 and 72,266 shares at a cost of $2,214,756, respectively, under the 2017 Authorization. As of June 29, 2018, the Company terminated its stock repurchase activity; however, if the Company chooses to resume repurchasing stock it has $1,721,427 available, in accordance with the 2017 Authorization.

In fiscal year 2016, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 50,000 shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock beginning February 18, 2016 and continuing through February 17, 2017 (the "2016 Authorization"). No shares were repurchased under the 2016 Authorization.

The following table illustrates the Company’s treasury stock activity for the nine months ended June 30, 2018:

Capital Contribution

On April 16, 2018, all operating partners of Citree received a funding notice relating to an additional Cash Capital Contribution (“Contribution”) requirement of approximately $2,041,000 as a result of Hurricane Irma reducing the amount of crop available for sale in the 2017-2018 harvest season and the Company adopting a more extensive caretaking plan focused on limiting the impact of citrus greening. The Company’s portion of the Contribution was approximately $1,041,000 and was funded on April 27, 2018. The remaining portion of the Contribution of $1,000,000 was funded by the noncontrolling parties.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The Company has prepared the accompanying financial statements on a condensed consolidated basis. These accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, which are referred to herein as the “Financial Statements", have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial information. These Financial Statements do not include all of the disclosures required for complete annual financial statements and, accordingly, certain information, footnotes and disclosures normally included in annual financial statements, prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, have been condensed or omitted in accordance with SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, the Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, as filed with the SEC on December 11, 2017.

The Financial Statements presented in this Form 10-Q are unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, such Financial Statements include all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP applicable to interim periods.

Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current fiscal year ending September 30, 2018. All intercompany transactions and account balances between the consolidated businesses have been eliminated.

Segments

Segments

Operating segments are defined in the criteria established under the Financial Accounting Standards Board - Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) Topic 280 as components of public entities that engage in business activities from which they may earn revenues and incur expenses for which separate financial information is available and which is evaluated regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to assess performance and allocate resources. The Company’s CODM assesses performance and allocates resources based on three operating segments: Alico Citrus (formerly Orange Co.), Conservation and Environmental Resources and Other Operations.

Principles of Consolidation and Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Subsidiary

Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Subsidiary

The Financial Statements include all assets and liabilities of the less-than-100%-owned subsidiary the Company controls, Citree Holdings I, LLC (“Citree”). Accordingly, the Company has recorded a noncontrolling interest in the equity of such entity.

Principles of Consolidation

The Financial Statements include the accounts of Alico, Inc. and the accounts of all the subsidiaries in which a controlling interest is held by the Company. Under U.S. GAAP, consolidation is generally required for investments of more than 50% of the outstanding voting stock of an investee, except when control is not held by the majority owner. The Company’s subsidiaries include: Alico Land Development, Inc., Alico-Agri, Ltd., Alico Plant World, LLC, Alico Fruit Company, LLC, Alico Citrus Nursery, LLC, Alico Chemical Sales, LLC, 734 Citrus Holdings LLC and subsidiaries, Alico Fresh Fruit LLC, Alico Skink Mitigation, LLC and Citree Holdings 1, LLC. The Company considers the criteria established under FASB ASC Topic 810, “Consolidations”in its consolidation process. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the accompanying Financial Statements, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses and cash flows during the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates based upon future events. The Company evaluates estimates on an ongoing basis. The estimates are based on current and expected economic conditions, historical experience, the experience and judgment of the Company’s management and various other specific assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable. The Company evaluates its assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis and may employ outside experts to assist in the Company’s evaluations.

Reclassifications

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in the accompanying Financial Statements for consistent presentation to the current period. These reclassifications had no impact on net income, equity, cash flows or working capital.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” as a new ASC topic (Topic 606). The core principle of this ASU is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU further provides guidance for any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (for example, lease contracts). The FASB subsequently issued ASU 2015-14 to defer the effective date of ASU 2014-09 until annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, with earlier adoption permitted. The FASB also recently issued ASU 2016-10, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing," and 2016-12, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients," that clarify or amend the original Topic 606. ASU 2014-09 can be adopted using one of two retrospective transition methods: 1) retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or 2) as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company has reviewed ASU 2014-09 and does not expect this new guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Seasonality

Seasonality

Historically, the second and third quarters of Alico's fiscal year produce the majority of the Company's annual revenue. Working capital requirements are typically greater in the first and fourth quarters of the fiscal year, coinciding with harvesting cycles. Due to Hurricane Irma, in the three months ended June 30, 2018, Alico produced a smaller percentage of boxes harvested, as compared to the estimated totals for the full harvest season, than in past years. As a result, the working capital requirements varied from the typical trends historically experienced in the current year. Because of the seasonality of the business, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full fiscal year.
