Webcast Participant's questions to St Joe Co (JOE) leadership • Q2 2025
Question
A webcast participant asked about the potential effects of Florida Senate Bill 1622, the discrepancy between market cap and NAV, the earnings potential of JVs like Water Sun Fountain, the strategy for selling non-core land, and the potential of the new Watersound Real Estate brokerage.
Answer
President, CEO & Chairman Jorge Gonzalez stated the company does not anticipate negative effects from SB 1622. On the NAV gap, he said management's focus is on growing the company profitably. He expressed confidence in the long-term potential of JVs like Fountains, comparing its ramp-up to the now-profitable Watercress facility. Gonzalez also explained the company's strategy of selling non-strategic land while being more selective in its core counties.
