Consolidated Tomoka Reports 2009 Earnings
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla., Feb. 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. (NYSE Amex: CTO) today reported net income of $800,570, or $0.14 earnings per basic share, for the year ended December 31, 2009, and earnings before depreciation, amortization, and deferred taxes (EBDDT) of $4,531,135, or $0.79 per share, for such period. The comparable numbers for 2008 were net income of $4,834,900, or $0.84 earnings per basic share and EBDDT of $7,924,025, or $1.38 per share. For the three months ended December 31, 2009, net income totaled $80,893, or $0.01 earnings per basic share, compared with net income of $2,402,338, or $0.41 earnings per basic share, for the same period in 2008.
EBDDT is being provided to reflect the impact of the Company's business strategy of investing in income properties utilizing tax deferred exchanges. This strategy generates significant amounts of depreciation and deferred taxes. The Company believes EBDDT is useful, along with net income, to understanding the Company's operating results. EBDDT for 2009 included an increase for deferred income taxes of $669,460, or $0.12 per share, associated with decreased pension liabilities while 2008 EDBBT included a reduction of deferred income taxes of $780,125, or $0.14 per share due to increased pension liabilities, with both amounts recorded directly in shareholders equity.
William H. McMunn, president and chief executive officer, stated, "The Company continues to remain profitable despite the unprecedented downturn in the real estate market, locally and nationally, as well the significant decline in the overall economy. Our business strategy of converting tax-deferred land sales proceeds into stable, high-quality income properties and minimizing debt has provided the catalyst to sustain the Company's financial health and shareholder value in these difficult times. We expect economic conditions to remain unchanged in 2010. To protect and enhance long-term shareholder value, the Company will continue to control costs, monitor debt, and work on obtaining valuable land-use entitlements in order to be prepared for the eventual rebound of the real estate market."
Consolidated-Tomoka Land Co. is a Florida-based company primarily engaged in converting Company owned agricultural lands into a portfolio of net lease income properties strategically located in the Southeast, through the efficient utilization of 1031 tax-deferred exchanges. The Company has low long-term debt and currently generates over $9 million in annual before tax cash flow from its income property portfolio. The Company also engages in selective self-development of targeted income properties. The Company's adopted strategy is designed to provide the financial strength and cash flow to weather difficult real estate cycles. Visit our website at www.ctlc.com.

EBDDT -EARNINGS BEFORE DEPRECIATION, AMORTIZATION, AND DEFERRED TAXES.
EBDDT IS NOT A MEASURE OF OPERATING RESULTS OR CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATING
ACTIVITIES AS DEFINED BY U.S. GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES.
FURTHER, EBDDT IS NOT NECESSARILY INDICATIVE OF CASH AVAILABILITY TO FUND
CASH NEEDS AND SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO CASH FLOW AS
A MEASURE OF LIQUIDITY. THE COMPANY BELIEVES, HOWEVER, THAT EBDDT
PROVIDES RELEVANT INFORMATION ABOUT OPERATIONS AND IS USEFUL, ALONG WITH
NET INCOME, FOR AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE COMPANY'S OPERATING RESULTS.
EBDDT IS CALCULATED BY ADDING DEPRECIATION, AMORTIZATION, AND THE CHANGE
IN DEFERRED INCOME TAXES TO NET INCOME AS THEY REPRESENT NON-CASH CHARGES.
