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, 1995.
In the opinion of Management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recur-
ring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of its consolidated financial
position at November 30, 1995 and August 31, 1995 and the consolidated results
of operations and cash flows for the three months ended November 30, 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 $482,211 in
1995 and $283,492 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 (in thousands) 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 Internal Revenue Service would result in approximately $6.9 million
in additional income taxes. When the matter is resolved, any income taxes due
will become currently payable. However, the majority of the proposed adjust-
ments relate to the timing of recognition of certain income and expense items
already provided for in the Company's deferred tax liability accounts.
A partial settlement was reached with the Internal Revenue Service during April
of 1995. A payment of $385,043 was made consisting of $260,259 taxes and
$124,784 interest. The items conceded related to the timing of recognition of
certain items previously expensed. The effect of this payment was to increase
interest expense by $124,784 and reduce the current deferred tax liability by
$260,259.
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 November 30, 1995 and August 31, 1995 was $19,590,000 and $16,055,000,
respectively.
Interest cost expensed and capitalized during the three months
ended November 30, 1995 and November 30, 1994 was as follows:
1995 1994
________ ________
Interest expensed $136,311 $218,571
Interest capitalized 175,990 103,853
________ ________
Total interest cost $312,301 $322,424
________ ________

6. Commitment:
During October 1992 the Company 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. The commitment was recorded as a contribution in May 1994 when the
title to the land was transferred. Costs related to road construction have been
accrued and capitalized into land. Other costs will be expensed as incurred.
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 $26,998,948 at November 30, 1995, up from
$26,079,408 at August 31, 1995. As of November 30, 1995 the Company had cash
and cash investments of $1,597,381 compared to $1,148,733 at August 31, 1995
Marketable securities decreased from $9,410,936 to $9,056,883 during the same
period. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities increased from 5.61
to 1 at August 31, 1995 to 7.06 to 1 at November 30, 1995. Total assets
increased by $553,466 from $109,007,179 at August 31, 1995 to $109,560,645 at
November 30, 1995.
The working capital increase ($919,540) is primarily the result of the
decrease in current liabilities ($5,656,454 vs. $4,453,660 at August 31, 1995
and November 30, 1995, respectively). Ad valorem taxes ($1,076,241) and the
profit sharing plan contribution ($217,968), accrued at August 31, 1995 were
paid during the first quarter of fiscal 1996.
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 $5.4 million at
November 30, 1995.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
When compared to the same period a year ago, net income increased $226,313
during the first quarter of fiscal 1996. Income before income taxes
increased $346,237 during the first quarter of fiscal 1996, when compared to
the same period a year ago, largely due to an increase in earnings
from agricultural activities ($1,136,019 vs. $840,208 during the first
quarters of fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively.)
Citrus earnings increased during the first quarter of fiscal 1996, when
compared to the same period last year ($795,512 vs. $305,978), primarily the
result of improved market prices for citrus products.
FORM 10-Q
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued):
Sugarcane earnings, during the first quarter, approximated those of the same
period a year ago ($334,852 vs. $369,751 during the first quarter of fiscal
1996 and 1995, respectively). Ranch earnings, however, decreased $158,824
during the first quarter of fiscal 1996, compared to the first quarter of
fiscal 1995 ($5,655 vs. $164,479, respectively). A decrease in market prices
for beef is the primary cause for the decrease in profits for this division.
Land preparation activities are underway for the new Florida Gulf Coast
University which is scheduled to open in August 1997. The Company is
continuing its marketing and permit activities for its land which surrounds
the University site.

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 of November 30, 1995, and the related condensed consolidated
statements of operations and retained earnings for the three-month periods ended
November 30, 1995 and 1994, and the related condensed consolidated statements of
cash flows for the three-month periods ended November 30, 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 informa-
tion, 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. Accordingly, 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, 1995 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stock-
holders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein);
and in our report dated October 6, 1995, 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,
1995, is fairly presented, in all material respects, in relation to the balance
sheet from which it has been derived.
