Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

• GAAP net loss attributable to common stockholders for the second quarter of 2025 was $1.7 million, or net loss per share attributable to common stockholders, basic and diluted, of $0.06. In the second quarter of 2024, the Company reported net income attributable to common stockholders of $1.0 million, or net income per share attributable to common stockholders, basic and diluted, of $0.04.
  • The $2.7 million year-over-year swing was primarily driven by the $2.3 million in consulting fees related to the contested board election and proxy defense.
• Revenues and other income, including equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures, for the second quarter of 2025 were $11.1 million, compared with $9.0 million for the second quarter of 2024.
  • The primary driver of this increase was the real estate commercial/industrial segment, which generated $2.6 million more in revenue compared to the prior period. This increase was due to the recognition of land sale revenue following the Company's completion of the performance obligation related to a land sale transaction that occurred in 2022. The increase was partially offset by the $0.5 million decrease in mineral resources segment due to decrease in water sales revenue resulted from higher than expected rainfall, which reduced demand.
• Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was $5.7 million for the second quarter ended June听30, 2025, compared with $5.1 million for the same period in 2024.
  

Tejon Ranch Co. provides Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, because management believes it offers additional information for monitoring the Company's cash flow performance. A table providing a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most comparable GAAP measure, as well as an explanation of, and important disclosures about, this non-GAAP measure, is included in the tables at the end of this press release.

Year-to-Date Financial Results

• Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the first six months of 2025 was $3.2 million, or net loss per share attributed to common stockholders, basic and diluted, of $0.12, compared with net income attributable to common stockholders of $43.0 thousand, or net income per share attributed to common stockholders, basic and diluted, of $0.00, for the first six months of 2024.
  • The primary factor driving this change was the increase in operating losses within the corporate segment, mainly due to the more than $3.0 million of additional expense incurred related professional and consulting fees incurred during the contested board election and proxy defense during the six months ended June听30, 2025.
• Revenues and other income, for the first six months of 2025, including equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures, totaled $20.7 million, compared with $18.6 million for the first six months of 2024. Factors impacting the year-to-date results include:
  • AG真人官方 estate commercial/industrial segment experienced an increase in revenue for the first six months of 2025. Revenues for this segment were $7.9 million, an increase of $2.4 million, or 43%, from $5.5 million for the first six months of 2024. The primary driver of this increase was the recognition in land sales revenue, following the Company's fulfillment of the performance obligation related to a land sale that occurred in 2022.
  • Farming segment revenues were $2.2 million for the first six months of 2025, an increase of $1.2 million, or 115%, from $1.0 million for the first six months of 2024. Almond sales, the biggest contributor to this increase, increased by $1.2 million due to higher units sold in current year. The Company sold 727,000 and 381,000 pounds of almonds during the six months ended June听30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
  • The increase in revenue was partially offset by a decrease in equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures. The equity in earnings were $3.7 million for the six months ended June听30, 2025, a decrease of $0.6 million, or 13%, compared to $4.3 million during the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in equity in earnings from the TA/Petro joint venture, which declined by approximately $595,000. The decline was driven by a 7.6% reduction in nonfuel gross margins and a 10.9% increase in operating expense compared to the same period in 2024.
  • Additionally, other income decreased by $682,000, largely due to reduced investment earnings stemming from a lower balance of marketable securities.
• Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, was $8.6 million for the six months ended June听30, 2025, compared with $7.3 million for the same period in 2024.

Tejon Ranch Co. provides Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, because management believes it offers additional information for monitoring the Company's cash flow performance. A table providing a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most comparable GAAP measure, as well as an explanation of, and important disclosures about, this non-GAAP measure, is included in the tables at the end of this press release.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

• As of June听30, 2025, total capitalization, including pro rata share (PRS) of unconsolidated joint venture debt, was approximately $648.4 million, consisting of an equity market capitalization of $455.9 million and $192.5 million of debt, and our debt to total capitalization was 29.7%. As of June听30, 2025, the Company had cash and securities totaling approximately $20.1 million and $78.1 million available on its line of credit, for total liquidity of $98.1 million. The ratio of total debt including pro rata share of unconsolidated joint venture debt, net of cash and securities including pro rata share of unconsolidated joint venture cash, of $160.5 million, to trailing twelve months adjusted EBITDA of $24.7 million was 6.5x using non-GAAP measures.
  

2025 Outlook:

The Company will continue to strategically pursue commercial/industrial development, multi-family development, leasing, sales, and investment activities across TRCC, including its joint ventures developments. The Company will also continue to make measured capital investment to advance its residential projects, Mountain Village at Tejon Ranch, Centennial at Tejon Ranch and Grapevine at Tejon Ranch, through disciplined, strategic investment, with a focus on critical entitlements, planning milestones, and value-enhancing activities.

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 the above-mentioned activity, along with commodity prices, production within its farming and mineral resources segments, and the timing of land sales and leasing of land within its industrial developments.

Water sales opportunities each year are impacted by the total precipitation and snowpack runoff in Northern California from winter storms along with State Water Project, or SWP, allocations. This year marks the third consecutive year of above average snowpack levels. The current SWP allocation is at 50% of contract amounts, suggesting that water sales opportunities may be limited this year.

On July 10, 2025, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) released its Objective Forecast for the 2025 California almond crop, projecting total production of 3.0 billion pounds. This represents a 7% increase from the USDA's Subjective Forecast issued on May 12, 2025, and a 10% increase over the 2024 crop of 2.73 billion pounds. We believe this anticipated increase in supply may exert downward pressure on almond pricing throughout the 2025 crop year.

While certain regions of California experienced pollination challenges due to significant honeybee colony losses and resulting hive shortages, the Company's operations were not materially impacted during the critical pollination period. Nonetheless, potential yield declines in other growing regions may influence broader market dynamics.

Additionally, recently announced U.S. trade measures have heightened the risk of retaliatory tariffs from key export markets, including the European Union, India, and China. These potential trade barriers may negatively affect export demand and further contribute to pricing volatility in the global almond market.

While year-to-year results may fluctuate due to external factors, the Company remains focused on long-term value creation. With a strong asset base, disciplined investment approach, and a clear development strategy, we are well-positioned to navigate near-term challenges and advance our strategic priorities.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes references to the Company鈥檚 non-GAAP financial measure 鈥淓BITDA.鈥� EBITDA represents the Company's 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 the Company and others as a supplemental measure of performance. Tejon Ranch uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance of the Company's 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. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA provides investors relevant and useful information because it permits investors to view income from operations on an unlevered 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 the Company's performance independent of its capital structure and indebtedness and, therefore, allow for a more meaningful comparison of the Company's performance to that of other companies, both in the real estate industry and in other industries. The Company believes that excluding charges related to share-based compensation facilitates a comparison of its 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 the Company's control), and the assumptions and the variety of award types that a company can use. In addition, the Company excludes other items impacting comparability to provide a clearer understanding of its core operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as measures of the Company's performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect Tejon Ranch's 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, the Company's computation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other companies.

We use Net Debt / Adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial measure to evaluate our capital structure and ability to service our debt. Management believes this ratio provides useful insight into leverage trends and capital efficiency. Net debt includes TRC debt and the company鈥檚 pro rata share of debt held at unconsolidated joint ventures, offset by consolidated and pro rata cash. Adjusted EBITDA is used as a proxy for core operating performance. A reconciliation is provided below.
