Recurring updates cover land sales, agricultural leasing, rock and sand royalty revenue, and agricultural operations tied to the company’s Florida acreage portfolio.

Alico, Inc. reports minimal tree damage from Hurricane Milton, with no employee casualties. The company's 48,000 acres of citrus groves across seven Florida counties experienced varying wind intensities. Initial assessments show measurable fruit drop in northern groves, particularly in Polk and Hardee County. Most trees remain intact, suggesting the storm's impact will affect current season production rather than long-term output. No significant flooding occurred, and office headquarters and equipment were largely unaffected.
Alico maintains crop insurance for catastrophic events but damage may not be sufficient for claims. The company will seek federal, state, and local assistance for recovery. Alico plans to fulfill its fruit supply contracts with Tropicana, Peace River, and Florida's Natural. Recently, Alico amended its Credit Agreement, increasing its revolving line of credit from $25 million to $95 million and extending the maturity date to May 1, 2034.
