Rhea-AI Filing Summary

The St. Joe Company reported first quarter 2026 revenue of $99.1 million, up 5% from $94.2 million a year earlier, driven by higher hospitality and real estate sales. Hospitality revenue reached a first quarter record of $44.7 million, up 13%, while leasing revenue declined 10% to $14.7 million.

Net income attributable to the company fell 21% to $13.9 million, or $0.24 per share, mainly due to lower equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures as home closings slowed at the Latitude Margaritaville Watersound project. EBITDA decreased 16% to $33.6 million.

The board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.16 per share, payable June 25, 2026 to shareholders of record on June 9, 2026. The company ended March 31, 2026 with $136.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and allocated capital among development spending, dividends, share repurchases, and debt repayment during the quarter.

Positive

  • None.

Negative

  • Net income and EBITDA declined materially year over year, with net income attributable to the company down 21% to $13.9 million and EBITDA down 16% to $33.6 million, driven largely by lower equity income from unconsolidated joint ventures.

Insights

Revenue grew modestly, but earnings fell on weaker joint venture contributions.

The St. Joe Company posted Q1 2026 revenue of $99.1 million, a 5% increase, with hospitality at a first quarter record $44.7 million and real estate revenue at $39.7 million. Leasing revenue declined as a sold senior living asset no longer contributes rent.

Profitability compressed: net income attributable to the company dropped 21% to $13.9 million, and EBITDA fell 16% to $33.6 million, largely because equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures fell from $10.2 million to $3.5 million as Latitude Margaritaville Watersound home closings slowed.

The company continues to emphasize recurring revenue, with hospitality and leasing representing 60% of total revenue, and maintains shareholder returns via a $0.16 quarterly dividend, $5.0 million of share repurchases, and debt reduction in Q1 2026. Overall, this mix of modest top-line growth and lower earnings is best viewed as neutral for the broader investment thesis.

EBITDA financial
"Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), a non-GAAP financial measure, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, decreased by 16% to $33.6 million"
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.
unconsolidated joint ventures financial
"The Company has joint ventures which are unconsolidated and accounted for using the equity method."
Unconsolidated joint ventures are business partnerships where a company shares ownership and control but keeps the venture’s full financials separate from its own books; the company typically reports only its share of profit or loss instead of combining all assets, liabilities and sales. This matters to investors because it can hide the venture’s full risks, debts and revenues from the parent’s financial statements, so understanding these arrangements helps assess true exposure and future cash flow potential — like seeing only your slice of a pie rather than the whole pie’s size.
Detailed Specific Area Plan financial
"we were pleased to announce the execution of a contract with PulteGroup for up to 2,653 homesites in our most recently approved Detailed Specific Area Plan."
A detailed specific area plan is a government-approved blueprint for how a defined piece of land can be used and developed, spelling out allowed building types, roads, utilities and design standards. For investors it matters because it turns vague development ideas into concrete rules, reducing uncertainty about project timelines, costs and the value of land or property—like converting a rough sketch into a construction-ready recipe.
SOFR financial
"As of March 31, 2026, 83% of the Company’s outstanding debt had a fixed or swapped interest rate while the remaining 17% of debt has interest rates that vary with SOFR."
The Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) is a market benchmark that measures the cost of borrowing cash overnight using U.S. Treasury securities as collateral. Investors watch SOFR because it acts like a speedometer for short-term interest costs—affecting loan rates, bond yields and the pricing of interest-rate contracts—so movements change borrowing expenses, cash returns and the value of interest-sensitive investments.
non-GAAP financial measure financial
"EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, which management believes assists investors by providing insight into the operating performance"
A non-GAAP financial measure is a way companies present their financial results that excludes certain expenses or income to show how they believe their core business is performing. It matters because it can give a clearer picture of how the company is really doing, but it can also be used to make results look better than they actually are.

Graphic

THE ST. JOE COMPANY REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2026 RESULTS AND DECLARES A QUARTERLY DIVIDEND OF $0.16 PER SHARE

Highlights for the first quarter of 2026 as compared to the first quarter of 2025:

Quarterly revenue increased by 5% to $99.1 million from $94.2 million, the Company’s highest first quarter revenue outside of the one-off timberland sale in 2014.
Hospitality revenue increased by 13% to a first quarter record of $44.7 million from $39.6 million.
Real estate revenue increased by 4% to $39.7 million from $38.3 million.
Quarterly operating income increased by 8% to $18.2 million from $16.9 million.  Equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures decreased by $6.7 million primarily due to lower home closing volume related to the Latitude Margaritaville Watersound unconsolidated joint venture.
The Company placed 1,380 homesites under contract in the first quarter of 2026 bringing total homesites under contract to 3,204 as of March 31, 2026, as compared to 952 homesites under contract as of March 31, 2025.
In the first quarter of 2026, the Company funded $20.7 million in capital expenditures, paid $9.2 million in cash dividends, repurchased $5.0 million of the Company's common stock and repaid $10.9 million of debt.
Cash and cash equivalents balance increased to $136.3 million as of March 31, 2026, as compared to $129.6 million as of December 31, 2025.

Panama City Beach, Florida – (April 29, 2026) – The St. Joe Company (NYSE: JOE) (the “Company,” “We,” or “Our”) today reports first quarter 2026 results.

Jorge Gonzalez, the Company’s President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, said, “Building on a record year in 2025, the first quarter 2026 revenue of $99.1 million was the Company’s highest first quarter revenue outside of the one-off timberland sale in 2014.  In addition, we continued to successfully execute our strategy of growing recurring revenue as evidenced by the first quarter record of $44.7 million in hospitality revenue and $14.7 million in leasing revenue, which together accounted for 60% of the total revenue in the quarter.  In addition


Page 2

to the growth in our recurring revenue, we are improving profitability, as evidenced by the increase in margins in hospitality and leasing.”

Mr. Gonzalez continued, “Even though our revenue and net operating income increased for the quarter, our net income decreased primarily because of a lower equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures, which was primarily caused by a lower home closing volume related to the Latitude Margaritaville Watersound unconsolidated joint venture.  Residential projects of that scale and longevity have an ebb and flow of volume over time caused by many factors, including mortgage interest rates. The community has 2,273 occupied homes and is located in the middle of the Bay-Walton Sector Plan where there were previously only timberlands.  Those residents are now creating demand for commercial goods and services in our emerging Watersound West Bay Center, located at the entry to the Latitude Margaritaville Watersound community, as evidenced by the commencement of development of a new Publix grocery store.  The community is planned for a total of approximately 3,700 homes that are expected to generate additional consumer demand for goods and services.  As of March 31, 2026, our cumulative earnings from the Latitude Margaritaville Watersound unconsolidated joint venture totaled $92.1 million in addition to the payments made to us for the initial land contribution.  As we previously indicated, in addition to the financial performance, our business decision to develop the Latitude Margaritaville Watersound community was based on several factors, including creating energy in a part of our land holdings where there previously was none and creating consumers for our commercial leasing portfolio. The Watersound West Bay Center is planned for a minimum of 500,000 square feet of leasable space, which by itself would represent an increase of approximately 40% to our current commercial leasing portfolio.  We believe there are other benefits to the creation of consumers at the Latitude Margaritaville Watersound community, including our planned marina on the Intracoastal Waterway as well as our real estate brokerage, insurance agency, and title insurance agency businesses.”

Mr. Gonzalez concluded, “In the first quarter 2026, we were pleased to announce the execution of a contract with PulteGroup for up to 2,653 homesites in our most recently approved Detailed Specific Area Plan.  PulteGroup is new to our market and represents our third national homebuilder, joining D.R. Horton and Toll Brothers.  PulteGroup is the third largest homebuilder in the country, and their decision to enter our market is in recognition of the growth of our area and of the thoughtfully planned residential communities we are creating.  In the first quarter, we also executed a utility agreement for potable water and sanitary sewer with a utility provider that will service the Lake Powell and West Laird Detailed Specific Area Plans representing thousands of future residential homesites.  Work on this infrastructure is planned to commence later this year.”

Consolidated First Quarter 2026 Results

Total consolidated revenue for the first quarter of 2026 increased by 5% to $99.1 million, as compared to $94.2 million for the first quarter of 2025.  During the first quarter of 2026, real estate revenue increased by 4% to $39.7 million, hospitality revenue increased by 13% to a first quarter record of $44.7 million, while leasing revenue decreased by 10% to $14.7 million.  The decrease in leasing revenue is primarily due to the sale of the Watercrest joint venture senior living community property in September 2025.


Page 3

The Company has joint ventures which are unconsolidated and accounted for using the equity method.  For the three months ended March 31, 2026, these unconsolidated joint ventures had $56.1 million of revenue, as compared to $123.2 million for the same period in 2025.  The decrease is primarily due to the timing and number of homes completed by the Latitude Margaritaville Watersound joint venture.  For the first quarter of 2026, there were 83 completed home sales in the Latitude Margaritaville Watersound unconsolidated joint venture as compared to 192 completed home sales in the first quarter of 2025.  The Company’s economic interests in its unconsolidated joint ventures for the three months ended March 31, 2026, resulted in $3.5 million of equity in income from unconsolidated joint ventures, as compared to $10.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This activity is in addition to the Company’s reported consolidated revenue.  Although these business ventures are not included as revenue in the Company’s financial statements, they are part of the core business strategy which generates substantial financial returns for the Company.

Net income attributable to the Company for the first quarter of 2026 decreased by 21% to $13.9 million, or $0.24 per share, as compared to net income of $17.5 million, or $0.30 per share, for the same period in 2025.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), a non-GAAP financial measure, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, decreased by 16% to $33.6 million, as compared to $39.8 million for the same period in 2025.  Depreciation is a non-cash, GAAP expense, which is amortized over an asset’s useful life, while maintenance and repair expenses are period costs and expensed as incurred.  See Financial Data below for additional information, including a reconciliation of EBITDA to net income attributable to the Company.

Dividends

On April 29, 2026, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.16 per share on the Company’s common stock, payable on June 25, 2026, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 9, 2026.

Real Estate

For the first quarter of 2026, total real estate revenue increased by 4% to $39.7 million, as compared to $38.3 million for the first quarter of 2025.  Residential real estate volume totaled 168 residential homesites and six townhomes in the Watersound Villas on the Fairway community, in the first quarter of 2026, as compared to 249 residential homesites in the first quarter of 2025.  For the first quarter of 2026, there were three commercial and forestry real estate sales totaling $2.8 million and one hospitality sale totaling $3.6 million, as compared to two commercial and forestry real estate sales totaling $3.2 million for the first quarter of 2025.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had 3,204 residential homesites under contract, including 1,326 homesites within the Pigeon Creek project, which is structured to include significant variable revenue due to its long-term nature, and approximately 647 entitled undeveloped homesites within the SouthWood community.  Excluding the Pigeon Creek project and SouthWood community contracts due to their scale and timing, the remaining 1,231 residential homesites under contract are expected to result in revenue of approximately $119.9 million, plus residuals, at closing of the


Page 4

homesites over the next several years.  By comparison, as of March 31, 2025, the Company had 952 residential homesites under contract, with an expected revenue of approximately $94.4 million, plus residuals. The change in homesites under contract is due to homesite transactions since the end of the prior period, new contracts, and the amount of remaining homesites in current phases of the residential communities.  The Company’s residential homesite pipeline has over 23,500 homesites in various stages of development, engineering, permitting or concept planning.

The Latitude Margaritaville Watersound unconsolidated joint venture, planned for 3,700 residential homes, had 92 net sale contracts executed in the first quarter of 2026.  Since the start of sales in 2021, there have been 2,431 home contracts.  For the first quarter of 2026, there were 83 completed home sales, bringing the community to 2,273 occupied homes. There were 158 homes under contract as of March 31, 2026, with an average sales price of approximately $592,000, which are expected to result in sales value of approximately $93.5 million at completion.

Hospitality

Hospitality revenue increased by 13% to a first quarter record of $44.7 million in 2026, as compared to $39.6 million in the first quarter of 2025.  The gross margin improved across all hospitality categories to a total of 24.4% for the first quarter of 2026, as compared to 18.2% for the first quarter of 2025.

Hospitality revenue continues to benefit from the growth of the Watersound Club membership program and hotel operations.  For the first quarter of 2026, the Watersound Club revenue (including Camp Creek Inn operations) increased by 16% to $22.8 million, while hotel revenue increased by 10% to $19.5 million, as compared to the first quarter of 2025.  As of March 31, 2026, the Company had 3,647 club members, as compared to 3,498 club members as of March 31, 2025, a net increase of 149 members.  As of March 31, 2026, the Company owned (individually by the Company or through consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures) 12 hotels with 1,298 operational hotel rooms.

Leasing

Leasing revenue from commercial, office, retail, multi-family, self-storage and other properties decreased by 10% to $14.7 million for the first quarter of 2026, as compared to $16.3 million for the same period in 2025.   The decrease in leasing revenue is primarily due to the sale of the Watercrest joint venture senior living community property in September 2025.  Although the revenue is lower in the first quarter of 2026 as compared to 2025, the gross profit increased by $0.1 million to $9.0 million (61.2%) for the first quarter of 2026 as compared to $8.9 million (54.6%) for the first quarter of 2025.

Leasable space as of March 31, 2026, consisted of approximately 1,200,000 square feet, of which approximately 1,150,000, or 96%, were leased, as compared to approximately 1,180,000 square feet as of March 31, 2025, of which approximately 1,114,000, or 94%, were leased.  As of March 31, 2026, the Company had an additional 69,134 square feet of space under construction of which 58,134, or 84%, was pre-leased or will be occupied by the Company.  The Company is focused on commercial leasing space at the Watersound Town Center, Watersound West Bay Center and the


Page 5

FSU/TMH Medical Campus.  These three centers, and others in the planning stage, have the potential to more than double the Company’s total current leasable commercial space.

Corporate and Other Operating Expenses

The Company’s corporate and other operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026, increased by $1.8 million to $8.4 million, as compared to $6.6 million for the same period in 2025.  The increase was primarily related to compensation payments made in the first quarter of 2026.

Investments, Liquidity and Debt

In the first quarter of 2026 the Company funded $20.7 million in capital expenditures, paid $9.2 million in cash dividends, repurchased $5.0 million of the Company’s common stock, and repaid $10.9 million of debt, resulting in capital allocation of 45% to capital expenditures, 31% to shareholders through dividends and stock repurchases and 24% to debt repayment.  As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $136.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, as compared to $129.6 million as of December 31, 2025.  As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $259.7 million invested in development property, which, when complete, will be added to operating property or sold.

As of March 31, 2026, the weighted average effective interest rate of outstanding debt was 4.7% with an average remaining life of 19.7 years.  As of March 31, 2026, 83% of the Company’s outstanding debt had a fixed or swapped interest rate while the remaining 17% of debt has interest rates that vary with SOFR.

Earnings Call

The Company will conduct an earnings call on April 30, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. Central Time / 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time to discuss the Company’s performance and answer questions.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)

($ in millions)

EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, which management believes assists investors by providing insight into the operating performance of the Company across periods on a consistent basis and, when viewed in combination with the Company results prepared in accordance with GAAP, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company.  However, EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results reported under GAAP.  EBITDA is calculated by adjusting “Interest expense”, “Investment income, net”, “Income tax expense”, “Depreciation, depletion and amortization” to “Net income attributable to the Company”.
