NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Principles of Interim Statements. The following unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures which are normally included in annual financial statements pre- pared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The consolidated condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of the manage- ment, necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods. The consolidated condensed format is designed to be read in conjunction with the last annual report. The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 2. Seasonal Operations. The Company's citrus operations involve a single crop agricultural commodity and are seasonal in nature. To a lesser extent, real estate operations including forestry activities, are seasonal in nature. Accordingly, results for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. Results of operations for the twelve months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 are summarized as follows (in thousands): Twelve Months Ended September 30, ------------------------------------------------- 1997 1996 Revenues Income(Loss) Revenues Income(Loss) --------- ----------- -------- ------------ Citrus Operations $10,341 $ 1,686 $12,862 $ 3,575 Real Estate Operations 6,693 2,939 8,319 3,987 General Corporate & Other 6,625 3,009 6,184 2,944 ------ ----- ------ ------ Total Revenues $23,659 $27,365 ====== ====== Income Before Income Taxes 7,634 10,506 Income Taxes ( 2,937) ( 3,958) ------ ------ Net Income $ 4,697 $ 6,548 ====== ====== 6

3. Common Stock and Earnings Per Common Share. Primary earnings per share are based on the average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Primary and fully diluted earnings per share are the same for the periods. In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 "Earnings Per Share," (SFAS 128). SFAS 128 establishes new standards for computing and presenting earnings per share (EPS). Specifically, SFAS 128 replaces the presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS, requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. SFAS 128 is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997; earlier application is not permitted. EPS for the periods ended September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996 computed under SFAS 128 would not be different than that previously computed. 4. Notes Payable. Notes payable consist of the following: September 30, 1997 ----------------------------- Due Within Total One Year ---------- ----------- Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. ---------------------------- $ 7,000,000 Line of Credit $ 2,100,000 $ 2,100,000 Mortgages Payable 9,242,618 262,279 Industrial Revenue Bonds 2,616,626 307,145 ---------- ---------- 13,959,244 2,669,424 ---------- ---------- Indigo Group Ltd. ----------------- Mortgages Payable 3,708,936 37,923 ---------- ---------- 3,708,936 37,923 ---------- ---------- Total $17,668,180 $ 2,707,347 ========== ========== 7

Total interest for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was $1,253,922, of which $137,795 was capitalized to land held for development and sale. 8

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS The Management's Discussion and Analysis is designed to be read in conjunction with the financial statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis in the last annual report. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Citrus Operation - ---------------- With harvesting completed for the crop year in late spring, losses were recorded for the third period of 1997, as well as 1996. A loss of $457,542 posted in 1997's third quarter is 6% lower than the $487,256 loss recorded for 1996's same period. Increased repairs and maintenance at the packinghouse during the period of 1996, along with an early start to the 1997-1998 crop harvesting, account for the reduced loss. A total of 6,669 boxes of fruit were harvested and sold in 1997's third quarter, with no boxes harvested in the prior year. Citrus operating profits for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 experienced a significant downturn from results one year earlier. A profit of $672,748 was recorded for 1997's nine month period, which represents a 78% decrease in profits from the $2,998,843 posted in 1996's same nine months. This downturn is primarily the result of a 33% fall in fruit production, which resulted in a 36% decline in revenues. Revenues of $6,314,689 were recognized on the sale of 703,092 boxes of fruit in 1997's first nine months, compared to 1,050,488 boxes of fruit harvesed and sold in 1996's same period, producing revenues of $9,836,762. Also contributing to this decline was a 3% decrease in average fruit prices with both fresh and processed fruit experiencing price reductions. The lower fruit volume accounted for a 17% fall in production and selling expenses, with lower credits from handling third party fruit having a $312,000 negative impact on expenses. Real Estate Operations - ---------------------- For the third quarter of 1997 profits from real estate operations totaled $436,990 representing a significant increase over the $20,451 profit posted in 1996's third period. This improvement is directly related to commercial sales activity. Commercial acreage closed in the third period of 1997 totaled 27 acres producing gross profits of $385,000, which compares to one year earlier when no sales were closed. Year-to-date real estate operations compare unfavorably to prior year as profits of $1,218,161 represents a 30% decrease from 1996's $1,750,958 profit. The downturn is primarily attributable to lower gross profits recognized on commercial real estate sales. Gross profits decreased $450,000 although acreage sold increased to 45 acres from 22 acres closed for the first nine months of 1996. Sales pricing and profitability can vary from site to site depending on location and use. 9

The May 1997 sale of the 24,000 square foot Palm Coast office building, the December 1996 sale of the 21,000 square foot Daytona Beach office building and the June 1996 sale of the 70,000 Mariner Village shopping center combined for a 40% reduction in revenues and $49,000 decline in profits from income properties for the third quarter. The sales also affected the nine months to date with revenues being reduced 37% and profits declining $132,000. A 109% increase in forestry revenues for the third quarter of 1997 resulted in a $114,000 gain in profitability to $207,364. These gains achieved in the third quarter also resulted in a 28% increase in revenues and a 29% profit improvement to $575,403 for the nine month period. Subsurface revenue totaling $39,000 reflected a decrease of 8% for the third three month period of 1997 on lower oil royalty income, while additional mineral lease income led to a 27% rise in subsurface revenue to $140,000 for the nine month period. General, Corporate and Other - ---------------------------- Interest and other income climbed 51% for the third quarter of 1997 to $274,415 primarily the result of higher interest on mortgage notes receivable and to a lesser extent higher investment interest. For the nine months to date interest and other income rose 10% to $1,104,955. The higher income was realized on the sale of the Palm Coast office building, which resulted in a gain of $250,000, coupled with increased interest income on mortgage notes receivable. These increases for the nine month period were partially offset by the $450,000 gain posted on the sale of the Mariner Village shopping center during 1996. A substantial jump in the market value of the Company's stock during 1997's third quarter resulted in significantly higher stock option expense causing a rise in general and administrative expenses of 34% for the third quarter and 9% for the nine months to date. 10

FINANCIAL POSITION - ------------------ Unfavorable results from both citrus operations, on significantly reduced fruit volume, and real estate operations, from lower commercial sales gross profit margins contributed to an 89% percent reduction in net income for the first nine months of 1997 when compared to one year earlier. Net income of $229,064, equivalent to $.04 per share, was recorded in 1997. This compares to 1996's nine month net income of $2,134,789, equivalent to $.34 per share. Cash flow for the period was a negative $1,593,231 including the payment of dividends totaling $4,069,827. Dividends paid for the period rose 18% to $.65 per share from $.55 in 1996. Cash flow from operating activities provided cash of $448,449, with cash from investing activities adding $2,307,737 and cash from financing activities utilizing $4,349,417 including the payment of dividends. Included in cash from investing activities is $2,258,931 provided from the sale of property, plant and equipment, primarily recognized on the sale of the 24,000 square foot Palm Coast office building. Capital expenditures for the remainder of the year, which approximate $2,500,000 will be centered on the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) mixed-use development. These cash requirements will be financed through operating activities and when necessary existing borrowing capacity. The 1997-1998 citrus crop year is underway. Company groves are in good condition with the estimated fruit harvest expected to exceed the prior year by approximately 10%. The USDA Florida citrus crop estimate was released in early October with the estimate for Florida oranges totaling 254 million boxes. This represents a 12% increase over the final 1996-1997 record crop of 226 million boxes. These large crops have led to relatively depressed pricing for both processed and fresh fruit. The outbreaks of the Mediterranean fruit fly and citrus canker in several areas throughout the state have been sustantially controlled, with no danger or effects to Company groves. The Company took over the LPGA International golf facilities and operations, through a long-term lease with the City of Daytona Beach, effective September 1, 1997, while at the same time, assuming responsibility for the construction of the second golf course and clubhouse facilities. The total cost of the second golf course and clubhouse facilities will approximate $10 million. Construction of the golf course began in September and is expected to be completed in the spring of 1998 with play to begin in the fall of 1998. The clubhouse is scheduled to commence construction mid-1998 with the opening targetd for late 1998. It is anticipated that residential sales volume will strengthen with the completion of these amenities. Sales activity in and around the development remains relatively strong, with several contracts anticipated to close by year end or the first part of 1998. The sale of the 11,384 acres of the Company's most western Volusia County lands, at a price in excess of $10.2 million, continues on track for a year-end 1997 or early 1998 closing. 11

The conversion of the commercial contract backlog along with a relatively stable citrus operating environment, despite the somewhat weak citrus prices, are key to anticipated profitability for the near term. Long-term strategy continues to be adding value through selective development, while disposing of assets not in future plans, such as the Palm Coast office building. 12
