Pattern Detected

Earnings releases often highlight strong revenue and leasing growth, but price reactions have been modest, with occasional divergence when non-cash pension charges dominate GAAP results.

Recent Company History

Over the past five earnings releases from Nov 2024 through Nov 2025, Maui Land & Pineapple has consistently reported strong growth in operating and leasing revenues, expanding from $8.15M nine‑month revenues in 2024 to $14.9M YTD by Q3 2025. However, each period also featured GAAP net losses driven largely by non‑cash stock compensation or pension‑related expenses. Cash and investments convertible to cash trended down from $9.52M at 2024 year‑end to $5.0M by Q3 2025. Today’s full‑year 2025 results continue that pattern of operational improvement paired with pension‑driven GAAP losses.

Key Terms

8 terms
adjusted ebitda financial
"Adjusted EBITDA improved by 146% in 2025, marking the second consecutive year"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
ebitda financial
"EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as net income (loss) excluding"
EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.
View in glossary
gaap financial
"These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to represent ... as determined in accordance with GAAP."
GAAP, or Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, are a set of standardized rules and guidelines that companies follow when preparing their financial statements. They ensure consistency, transparency, and comparability across different companies, making it easier for investors to understand and compare financial information accurately. This helps investors make informed decisions based on trustworthy and uniform financial reports.
View in glossary
non-gaap financial
"Certain non-GAAP financial measures are presented in this press release, including Adjusted EBITDA"
Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.
View in glossary
stock-based compensation financial
"reduction in share-based compensation due to the reduced use of options"
Stock-based compensation is when a company pays employees, directors or consultants with shares or the right to buy shares instead of or in addition to cash. It matters to investors because issuing stock or options spreads ownership thinner (like cutting a pie into more slices), which can reduce each existing share’s claim on profits and can also change reported earnings; investors watch it to assess true cost of running the business and how management is incentivized.
View in glossary
pension plan financial
"by funding and annuitizing the qualified pension plan at an expense of $6.6 million"
A pension plan is a long-term program set up to pay retirees a regular income after they stop working, funded by employers, employees, or both. For investors, pension plans matter because they represent large pools of invested money that can move markets, create long-term demand for assets, and pose financial risks if promised payments exceed available funds — think of it as a community savings pot that must be managed carefully to meet future bills.
net operating income financial
"Land development and sales business segment’s net operating income improved by 416%"
Net operating income is the profit a business makes from its core operations after subtracting the costs directly related to running those operations, but before accounting for taxes, interest, or other expenses. It shows how efficiently a company is generating income from its main activities. Investors use this figure to assess the company's operational performance and profitability.
form 10-q regulatory
"results are available in the Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission"
A Form 10-Q is a detailed report that publicly traded companies are required to file with regulators three times a year, providing an update on their financial health and business activities. It is important for investors because it offers timely insights into a company's performance, helping them make informed decisions about buying or selling stocks. Think of it as a regular check-up report that shows how well a company is doing.

KAPALUA, Hawai‘i , April 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Maui Land & Pineapple Company, Inc. (NYSE: MLP) today reported financial results covering the year ended December 31, 2025.

“Our fiscal year 2025 results reflect significant progress in executing strategic initiatives, with operating revenues growing over 70% from last year. This growth was largely driven by higher recurring leasing revenue achieved through purposeful placemaking in our Kapalua and Hāli‘imaile town centers. These results were complemented by an increase of over 146% in Adjusted EBITDA from 2024, marking the second consecutive year of improvement.

We are seeing meaningful momentum in our efforts to maximize productivity and drive value creation. These efforts are supported by targeted land sales, which provide incremental capital to fuel investments in our asset portfolio and agricultural operations, including our new scalable agave venture.

We also took action to strengthen our future financial foundation and fulfill our kuleana (responsibility) to former plantation-era pineapple employees by funding and annuitizing their pension plan,” said Race Randle, CEO, Maui Land & Pineapple Company, Inc.

Notable achievements this year include the following:

- In 2025, leasing revenues improved by 33%, aided by dedicated asset management and the execution of 15 new leases. From January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2025, 42 leases, comprising 34 commercial leases accounting for 83,812 leasable square feet and 8 land leases encompassing 1,131 acres of land were executed. We continue to focus on opportunities to enhance this recurring revenue stream and provide stable capital for our ongoing operations, through improved occupancy and purposeful placemaking.
- The Company sold six non-strategic land parcels throughout the year, generating $2,435,000 in sales revenues to fund planning and development of active projects. There are fourteen additional parcels that are either actively listed by a broker or privately marketed for sale.
- These efforts drove total operating revenues up by 68% in 2025, primarily reflecting improvements in land sales and growth in leasing revenues. Adjusted EBITDA improved by 146% in 2025, marking the second consecutive year improving this measurement.
- On the agricultural front, the Company launched a new drought-tolerant agricultural venture, planting approximately 38 acres of blue weber agave on underutilized croplands in Upcountry, Maui. The Company is proud to have returned to agriculture activities and will advance efforts to develop value-added products with this drought-tolerant crop.
- Finally, the Company fulfilled its largest remaining commitment to former employees by funding and annuitizing the qualified pension plan at an expense of $6.6 million. The final remaining pension plan obligations are scheduled to be funded and resolved in the fourth quarter of 2026 at an estimated cost of $1.6 million.

“We are pleased with the 2025 results, representing continued year-over-year improvements in our financial performance. While our Net Loss increased due to the $6.6 million non-cash GAAP recognition of our pension funding, it is critical that we honor and resolve legacy obligations as we accelerate the business in new directions which contribute to housing, agriculture, economic vitality, and small businesses on Maui,” added Randle.

2025 Financial Highlights from the Companys 10-K Annual Report

  • GAAP Operating Loss improved by 38% to ($4.5) million in the year ended December 31, 2025, from ($7.4) million in the year ended December 31, 2024, a year over year improvement of $2.9 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA (Non-GAAP) improved by 146% to $1.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2025, from $0.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2024, a year-over-year improvement of $1.1 million.
  • Land development and sales business segment’s net operating income improved by 416% to $5.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2025, from ($0.5) million in the year ended December 31, 2024.
  • Leasing revenues improved by 33% to $12.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2025, from $9.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2024, a year-over-year improvement of $3.2 million.
  • Combined General and administrative and Share-based compensation expenses decreased by 15% to $9.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2025, from $10.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2024. a decrease of $1.5 million. The decrease was driven by a $2.0 million reduction in share-based compensation due to the reduced use of options. The Company does not anticipate using options for director compensation in the future, likely resulting in a decrease in share-based compensation expenses in future periods.
  • Net loss increased by 43% to ($10.6) million in the year ended December 31, 2025, from ($7.4) million in the year ended December 31, 2024. This increase of $3.2 million was primarily driven by the GAAP recognition of $6.9 million in pension expenses related to the termination of the qualified pension plan on September 30, 2025, of which $6.6 million was non-cash.
  • Cash and Investments Convertible to Cash (Non-GAAP) totaled $5.3 million on December 31, 2025, compared to $9.5 million at December 31, 2024, a decrease of $4.2 million. The decrease in cash is primarily attributed to $1.0 million in pension contributions and approximately $4.5 million of cash expended on land development activities, capital investments on assets across the portfolio, and launch of our new agave venture.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain non-GAAP financial measures are presented in this press release, including Adjusted EBITDA and Cash and Investments Convertible to Cash, to provide information that may assist investors in understanding the Company's financial results and financial condition and assessing its prospects for future performance. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is an important indicator of our operating performance because it excludes items that are unrelated to, and may not be indicative of, our core operating results. We believe Cash and Investments Convertible to Cash are important indicators of liquidity because it includes items that are convertible into cash in the short term. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to represent and should not be considered more meaningful measures than, or alternatives to, measures of operating performance or liquidity as determined in accordance with GAAP. To the extent we utilize such non-GAAP financial measures in the future, we expect to calculate them using a consistent method from period to period.

EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as net income (loss) excluding interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is further adjusted for non-cash stock-based compensation expense, pension and post-retirement expenses, and bad debt. Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by the Company to evaluate operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions for the allocation of capital. The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA to provide information that may assist investors in understanding its financial results. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a substitute for net income (loss). A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided further below.

Cash and Investments Convertible to Cash is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as cash and cash equivalents plus investments convertible to cash within forty-eight hours. Cash and Cash Investments Convertible to Cash is a key measure used by the Company to evaluate internal liquidity.
