Tejon Ranch Co., or the Company (NYSE:TRC), a diversified real estate development and agribusiness company, today announced financial results for the three- and nine-months ended September 30, 2020.
The Company is in the process of entitling, planning and developing four master planned developments. Three of the developments are mixed-use residential communities and the fourth is a large commercial/industrial center currently in operation with nearly 6.0 million square feet completed and an additional 14.3 million square feet available for development. When these four master planned developments are fully built out, Tejon Ranch will be home to 34,783 housing units, more than 35 million square feet of commercial/industrial space and 750 lodging units.
"We continue to see signs of a rebound from the impact of the global pandemic and resulting governmental shutdowns. In September, the Outlets at Tejon experienced the highest overall sales of any September since our grand opening. Our gas stations at the Tejon Ranch Commerce Center reported fuel volume sales at near pre-COVID-19 levels during August and September. Under California's Blueprint for a Safer Economy, we were just recently allowed to open our full service restaurants, albeit at 25% capacity, and our retail, gas stations, convenience stores and logistic centers remain open," said Gregory S. Bielli, President and CEO. "Our mineral resource segment is trailing behind as oil prices are recovering at a slower pace than expected. The Company's hedging of commodity production provided additional income to meet our forecasted yield levels. We also continue to press ahead with our mixed-use master planned communities, all the while managing our expenditures to preserve cash in the event the COVID-19 pandemic continues well into 2021."
Third Quarter Financial Results
Year-to-Date Financial Results
2020 Outlook:
Currently, California is taking a more cautious approach toward reopening than many other states. The Company is beginning to see meaningful improvements in traffic counts at its commerce center. Nevertheless, until the COVID-19 virus is better maintained and/or a vaccine is approved for nationwide distribution, the Company will need to continue to monitor the performance of its operating segments and the solvency of its tenants.
The Company's capital structure provides a solid foundation for continued investment in ongoing and future projects during this time of uncertainty. As of September 30, 2020, total capital, including debt, was approximately $503.1 million. The Company had cash and securities totaling approximately $50.4 million and $35.0 million available on its line of credit. The Company is also taking steps to maximize positive cash flow, in the event a lack of liquidity in the economy resulting from responses to the COVID-19 pandemic limits the Company's access to future third party funding.
The Company's agribusiness operations are deemed essential and allowed to operate under California's Blueprint for a Safer Economy. COVID-19 did not have a measurable impact on the Company's ability to plant, cultivate and harvest its crops.
The almond industry is on pace for a record production due to a great bloom cycle. The industry continues to see strong demand for its product, but the expected increase in production has begun to negatively impact prices. The mix of demand has been changed in the near term as a result of COVID-19 as more product is moving through wholesale markets and less through high end users such as restaurants. This temporary trend has also negatively impacted pricing.
With regards to pistachios, although 2020 is an on production year, unfavorable warm winter conditions adversely impacted the Company's pistachio blooms and yields. Overall 2020 pistachio yields decreased 45% when compared to 2019 which was a down bearing year. The impact of lower chill hours has impacted pistachio growers in the southern end of the San Joaquin Valley where the Company farms, and lower production has been seen in these areas as well. Overall in California, production is up due to 2020 being an on production year and chill hours being greater in growing areas to the north of the Company's landholdings.
The Company will continue to aggressively pursue development, leasing, sales, and investment within the Tejon Ranch Commerce Center and its joint ventures, and will also continue to invest in its residential projects, including Mountain Village at Tejon Ranch, Centennial at Tejon Ranch and Grapevine at Tejon Ranch.
During 2020, the Company will continue to invest funds in master project infrastructure, defending currently held entitlements, as well as vertical development within its active commercial and industrial developments. California is one of the most highly regulated states in which to engage in real estate development and, as such, natural delays, including those resulting from litigation, can be reasonably anticipated. Accordingly, throughout the next few years, the Company expects net income to fluctuate from year-to-year based on commodity prices, production within its farming segment and mineral resources segment, and the timing of sales of land and the leasing of land within its industrial developments.

Non-GAAP Financial Measure
This news release includes references to the Company’s non-GAAP financial measure “EBITDA.” EBITDA represents our share of consolidated net income in accordance with GAAP, before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, plus the allocable portion of EBITDA of unconsolidated joint ventures accounted for under the equity method of accounting based upon economic ownership interest, and all determined on a consistent basis in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and is used by us and others as a supplemental measure of performance. We use Adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance of our core operations, for financial and operational decision making, and as a supplemental or additional means of evaluating period-to-period comparisons on a consistent basis. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA, excluding stock compensation expense. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides investors relevant and useful information because it permits investors to view income from our operations on an unleveraged basis before the effects of taxes, depreciation and amortization, and stock compensation expense. By excluding interest expense and income, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA allow investors to measure our performance independent of our capital structure and indebtedness and, therefore, allow for a more meaningful comparison of our performance to that of other companies, both in the real estate industry and in other industries. We believe that excluding charges related to share-based compensation facilitates a comparison of our operations across periods and among other companies without the variances caused by different valuation methodologies, the volatility of the expense (which depends on market forces outside our control), and the assumptions and the variety of award types that a company can use. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as measures of our performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our historical cash expenditures or future cash requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments. While EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are relevant and widely used measures of performance, they do not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP, and they should not be considered as alternatives to those indicators in evaluating performance or liquidity. Further, our computation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other companies.
