ALICO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(See Accountants' Review Report)
1. Basis of financial statement presentation:
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned
subsidiary, Saddlebag Lake Resorts, Inc., after elimination of all
significant intercompany balances and transactions.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the
accounting principles and policies reflected in the Company's
annual report for the year ended August 31, 1994. In the opinion
of Management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of its
consolidated financial position at February 28, 1995 and August 31,
1994 and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for
the six months ended February 28, 1995 and 1994.
The basic business of the Company is agriculture which is of a
seasonal nature and subject to the influence of natural phenomena
and wide price fluctuations. Fluctuation in the market prices for
citrus fruit has caused the Company to recognize additional revenue
from the prior year's crop totaling $1,770,146 in 1995 and
$1,663,549 in 1994. The results of operations for the stated
periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected
for the full year.
2. Accounts and mortgage notes receivable:
Mortgage notes receivable are recorded under the accrual method of
accounting. Under this method, a sale is not recognized until
payment is received, including interest, aggregating 10% of the
contract sales price for residential properties and 20% for
commercial properties.
3. Inventories:
A summary of the Company's inventories is shown below:

The Company is currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the years ended August 31, 1992, 1991 and
1990. The adjustments proposed to date by the Interanl Revenue Service would result in approximately $6 million in
additional income taxes. When the matter is resolved, any income taxes due will become currently payable. However, the
majority of the proposed adjustments relate to the timing of recognition of certain income and expense items already
provided for in the Company's deferred tax liability accounts. Management intends to vigorously oppose the proposed
adjustments and is of the opinion that the ultimate outcome will not have a significant adverse effect on the financial
position or operations of the Company.
5. Indebtedness:
The Company has a financing agreement with a commercial bank that
permits the Company to borrow up to $25 million. The financing
agreement allows the Company to borrow up to $22,000,000 which is
due in January 1997 and up to $3,000,000 which is due on demand.
The total amount of long-term debt under this agreement at February
28, 1995 and August 31, 1994 was $22,000,000 and $18,713,998,
respectively.
Interest cost expensed and capitalized during the six months ended
February 28, 1995 and February 28, 1994 was as follows:

Interest capitalized 241,181 146,662

6. Commitment:
The Company has entered into an agreement to donate land,
improvements and other items, to the State of Florida, to be used
as a site for a new university. The gift included 975 acres of
land, road construction, engineering and planning services,
assistance with utility costs and academic chairs. Amounts for
academic chairs and planning activities were finalized during prior
years and charged against earnings. The title to the land was
transferred during May 1994, recorded as a contribution and charged
against earnings. The commitment for road construction, totaling
$2.4 million, was accrued at May 31, 1994. The portion allocable
to the university land was expensed as a donation while the
remainder was capitalized.
7. Accountants' review report:
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements have been reviewed by the Company's independent auditors
in accordance with standards for such limited reviews established
by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The
report of such auditors with respect to their limited review is
attached hereto as Exhibit A.
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
Working capital increased to $23,534,804 at February 28, 1995, up
from $22,680,869 at August 31, 1994. As of Feburary 28, 1995 the
Company had cash and cash investments of $799,909 compared to
$967,196 at August 31, 1994. Marketable securities increased from
$8,693,865 to $8,971,390 during the same period. The ratio of
current assets to current liabilities increased from 5.01 to 1 at
August 31, 1994 to 5.71 to 1 at February 28, 1995. Total assets
increased by $2,549,513 from $102,184,698 at August 31, 1994 to
$104,734,211 at February 28, 1995.
The working capital increase is primarily the result of the
decrease in current liabilities ($5,660,148 vs. $4,997,222 at
August 31, 1994 and February 28, 1995, respectively). Ad valorem
taxes ($1,143,204) and the profit sharing plan contribution
($248,594), accrued at August 31, 1994, were paid during the first
quarter of fiscal 1995. Income taxes deferred and currently
payable increased by $632,422 and the amount currently payable
under the financing agreement with the commercial bank increased to
$146,998 during the first six months of fiscal 1995.
In connection with a financing agreement with a commercial bank
(See Note 5 under Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements), the Company has an unused availability of funds of
approximately $2.9 million at February 28, 1995.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
When compared to the same period a year ago, net income decreased
$1,120,512 and $1,077,806 during the three and six months ended
February 28, 1995, respectively. Income before income taxes
decreased $1,615,081 during the first six months and $1,674,968
during the second quarter of fiscal 1995, when compared to the same
periods a year ago. This was largely due to the decrease in
earnings from agricultural activities ($3,528,165 vs. $4,943,360
during the first half of fiscal 1995 and 1994, respectively).
Citrus earnings decreased during the second quarter of fiscal 1995
when compared to the same period last year ($1,649,543 vs.
$2,777,055). The number of boxes harvested as of February 28, 1995
approximated the February 1994 level. However, the average revenue
per box has declined approximately 12% from the prior year,
primarily due to a decrease in the average number of pound solids
per box. This is also the primary factor in the year to date
decline in earnings for this division ($1,955,521 vs. $2,794,768
during the six months ended February 28, 1995 and 1994,
respectively).
FORM 10-Q
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued):
Sugarcane earnings decreased 5% during the first six months of
fiscal 1995, compared to the same fiscal 1994 period ($1,270,468
vs. $1,341,998). The gross tons yielded by this year's crop were
down 17% due to a 10% decrease in the number of producing acres.
Product quality has improved, however, as the sugar yield
percentage has increased 7%, generating a 14% increase in the gross
profit per ton harvested, significantly offsetting the decreased
production volume.
Ranch earnings decreased $504,418 during the first six months of
fiscal 1995 ($302,176 vs. $806,594), compared to the same period a
year ago. An increase in the number of animals placed in feedlots
has decreased the number of calves sold during the period. More
calves have been placed on feed in an attempt to improve the gross
profit per calf.
Construction of the new state university, on the land donated by
the Company, has been somewhat delayed. The permits necessary for
construction have been challenged by a local group in Fort Myers,
Florida. However, efforts are underway to negotiate a settlement
and a resolution appears eminent. Management is of the opinion
that this matter will be favorably resolved and construction will
begin before the end of 1995.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT'S REVIEW REPORT
______________________________________
The Stockholders and
Board of Directors
Alico, Inc:
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Alico,
Inc. and subsidiary as to February 28, 1995, and the related
condensed consolidated statements of operations and retained
earnings for the three-month and the six-month periods ended
February 28, 1995 and 1994, and the related condensed consolidated
statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended February
28, 1995 and 1994, in accordance with Statements on Standards for
Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants.
A review of interim financial information consists principally of
obtaining an understanding of the system for the preparation of
interim financial information, applying analytical review
procedures to financial data, and making inquiries of persons
responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is
substantially less in scope than an audit in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is
the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements
taken as a whole. Accodingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material
modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated
financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Alico, Inc.
and subsidiary as of August 31, 1994 and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for
the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated
October 16, 1994, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those
consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information
set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet
as of August 31, 1994, is fairly presented, in all material
respects, in relation to the balance sheet from which it has been
derived.
