THE ST. JOE COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Dollars in thousands, unless otherwise stated) (Unaudited)

xbrl,n

1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

xbrl,body

Description of Business

The St. Joe Company (the “Company”) is a Florida-based real estate developer and manager. The Company owns approximately 574,000 acres of land concentrated primarily in Northwest Florida and has significant residential and commercial land-use entitlements in hand or in process. The majority of land not under development is used for the growing and selling of timber or is available for sale. The Company also owns various resort and club properties.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements are not included herein. The consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The December 31, 2010 balance sheet amounts have been derived from the Company’s December 31, 2010 audited financial statements.

The statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained herein. The consolidated interim statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The Company adheres to the same accounting policies in preparation of its interim financial statements. As permitted under generally accepted accounting principles, interim accounting for certain expenses, including income taxes, are based on full year assumptions. For interim financial reporting purposes, income taxes are recorded based upon estimated annual income tax rates.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.

Long-Lived Assets and Discontinued Operations

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets include the Company’s investments in operating, development and investment property. Some of the events or changes in circumstances that are considered by the Company as indicators of potential impairment include:

• a prolonged decrease in the market price or demand for the Company’s properties;
• a change in the expected use or development plans for the Company’s properties;
• a current period operating or cash flow loss for an operating property; and,
• an accumulation of costs in a development property that significantly exceeds its
historically low basis in property held long-term.

Homes and homesites substantially completed and ready for sale are measured at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Homes and homesites ready for sale include properties that are actively marketed with an intent to sell such properties in the near term. Management identifies properties as being ready for sale when the intent is to sell such assets in the near term and under current market conditions. Other properties for which

Folio 6 /Folio

PAGEBREAK

Table of Contents

xbrl

management does not intend to sell in the near term under current market conditions are evaluated for impairment based on management’s best estimate of the long-term use and eventual disposition of such property.

For projects under development, an estimate of future cash flows on an undiscounted basis is performed using estimated future expenditures necessary to develop and maintain the existing project and using management’s best estimates about future sales prices and holding periods. The projection of undiscounted cash flows requires that management develop various assumptions including:

| • | the projected pace of sales of homesites based on estimated market conditions and the
Company’s development plans; |
| --- | --- |
| • | projected price appreciation over time, which can range from 0% to 7% annually; |
| • | the amount and trajectory of price appreciation over the estimate selling period; |
| • | the length of the estimated development and selling periods, which can range from 5
years to 17 depending on the size of the development and the number of phases to be
developed; |
| • | the amount of remaining development costs and holding costs to be incurred over the
selling period; |
| • | in situations where development plans are subject to change, the amount of entitled land
subject to bulk land sales or alternative use and the estimated selling prices of such
property; |
| • | for commercial development property, future pricing is based on sales of comparable
property in similar markets; and |
| • | assumptions regarding the intent and ability to hold individual investments in real
estate over projected periods and related assumptions regarding available liquidity to fund
continued development. |

For operating properties, an estimate of undiscounted cash flows requires management to make similar assumptions about the use and eventual disposition of such properties. Some of the significant assumptions that are used to develop the undiscounted cash flows include:

| • | for investments in hotel and rental condominium units, average occupancy and room
rates, revenues from food and beverage and other amenity operations, operating expenses
and capital expenditures, and the amount of proceeds to be realized upon eventual
disposition of such properties as condo-hotels or condominiums, based on current prices
for similar units appreciated to the expected sale date; |
| --- | --- |
| • | for investments in commercial or retail property, future occupancy and rental rates
and the amount of proceeds to be realized upon eventual disposition of such property at
a terminal capitalization rate; and, |
| • | for investments in golf courses, future rounds and greens fees, operating expenses
and capital expenditures, and the amount of proceeds to be realized upon eventual
disposition of such properties at a multiple of terminal year cash flows. |

The results of impairment analyses for development and operating properties are particularly dependent on the estimated holding and selling period for each asset group, which can be up to 35 years for certain properties with long range development plans. The estimated holding period is based on management’s current intent for the use and disposition of each property, which could be subject to change in future periods if the strategic direction of the Company as set by management and approved by the Board of Directors were to change. If the excess of undiscounted cash flows over the carrying value of a property is small, there is a greater risk of future impairment in the event of such changes and any resulting impairment charges could be material.

Folio 7 /Folio

Table of Contents

xbrl

Excluding any properties that have been written down to fair value, at December 31, 2010 the Company has one development property with a carrying value of approximately $23 million whose current undiscounted cash flows is approximately 110% or less of its carrying value.

In the event that projected future undiscounted cash flows are not adequate to recover the carrying value of a property, impairment is indicated and the Company would be required under generally accepted accounting principles to write down the asset to its fair value. Fair value of a property may be derived either from discounting projected cash flows at an appropriate discount rate, through appraisals of the underlying property, or a combination thereof.

The Company classifies the assets and liabilities of a long-lived asset as held-for-sale when management approves and commits to a formal plan of sale and it is probable that a sale will be completed. The carrying value of the assets held-for-sale are then recorded at the lower of their carrying value or fair market value less costs to sell. The operations and gains on sales reported in discontinued operations include operating properties sold during the year and assets classified as held-for-sale for which operations and cash flows can be clearly distinguished and for which the Company will not have continuing involvement or significant cash flows after disposition. The operations from these assets have been eliminated from ongoing operations. Prior periods have been reclassified to reflect the operations of these assets as discontinued operations. The operations and gains on sales of operating assets for which the Company has continuing involvement or significant cash flows are reported as income from continuing operations.

Timber Deed

Timber deed sales are agreements in which the buyer agrees to purchase and harvest specified timber (i.e. mature pulpwood and/or sawlogs) on a tract of land over the term of the contract. Unlike a pay-as-cut sales contract, risk of loss and title to the trees transfer to the buyer when the contract is signed. The buyer pays the full purchase price when the contract is signed and the Company does not have any additional performance obligations. Under a timber deed, the buyer or some other third party is responsible for all logging and hauling costs, if any, and the timing of such activity. Revenue from a timber deed sale is recognized when the contract is signed because the earnings process is complete.

On March 31, 2011, the Company entered into a $55.9 million agreement with an investment fund for the sale of a timber deed which gives the investment fund the right to harvest timber on specific tracts of land (encompassing 40,975 acres) over a maximum term of 20 years. As part of the agreement, the Company also entered into a Thinnings Supply Agreement to purchase first thinnings of timber included in the timber deed at fair market value from the investment fund. During 2011, the Company recognized revenue of $54.5 million related to the timber deed with $1.4 million recorded as an imputed land lease to be recognized over the life of the timber deed.

New Accounting Standards

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (“ASU 2010-06”). ASU 2010-06 requires some new disclosures and clarifies some existing disclosure requirements about fair value measurement as set forth in Codification Subtopic 820-10. ASU 2010-06 amends Codification Subtopic 820-10 to now require (1) a reporting entity to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers; (2) in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs, a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements; and (3) a reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements.

Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-06 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

2. Stock-Based Compensation and Earnings Per Share

xbrl,body

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is typically recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period. Stock-based compensation cost may be recognized over a shorter requisite service period if an employee meets retirement

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

eligibility requirements or if a change of control event occurs. Additionally, the 15% discount at which employees may purchase the Company’s common stock through payroll deductions is being recognized as compensation expense. Upon exercise of stock options or vesting of restricted stock, the Company will issue new common stock.

A significant number of outstanding unvested restricted shares vested during the quarter in connection with recent changes in the Company’s Board of Directors which qualified as a change in control event under the Company’s 2009 Equity Incentive Plan. During March 2011, the Company accelerated the vesting of approximately 300,000 restricted shares resulting in $6.2 million in accelerated amortization expense.

Service-Based Grants

A summary of service-based non-vested restricted share activity as of March 31, 2011 and changes during the three month period are presented below:

Number of Grant Date Fair
Service-Based Non-Vested Restricted Shares Shares Value
Balance at December 31, 2010 266,659 $ 30.91
Granted 85,235 29.11
Vested (260,058 ) 30.72
Forfeited (1,159 ) 25.16
Balance at March 31, 2011 90,677 $ 31.49

As of March 31, 2011, there was $0.5 million of unrecognized compensation cost, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, related to non-vested restricted stock and stock option compensation arrangements which will be recognized over a weighted average period of two years.

Market Condition Grants

The Company has granted select executives and other key employees non-vested restricted stock whose vesting is based upon the achievement of certain market conditions which are defined as the Company’s total shareholder return as compared to the total shareholder return of certain peer groups during a three year performance period.

The Company currently uses a Monte Carlo simulation pricing model to determine the fair value of its market condition awards. The determination of the fair value of market condition-based awards is affected by the stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of other variables. These variables include expected stock price volatility over the requisite performance term of the awards, the relative performance of the Company’s stock price and shareholder returns to those companies in its peer groups and a risk-free interest rate assumption. Compensation cost is recognized regardless of the achievement of the market condition, provided the requisite service period is met.

A summary of the activity during the three months ended March 31, 2011 is presented below:

Number of Grant Date Fair
Market Condition Non-Vested Restricted Shares Shares Value
Balance at December 31, 2010 562,531 $ 23.17
Granted 154,424 21.10
Vested (291,304 ) 19.12
Forfeited (348,740 ) 24.42
Balance at March 31, 2011 76,911 $ 15.69

As of March 31, 2011, there was $0.3 million of unrecognized compensation cost, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, related to market condition non-vested restricted shares which will be recognized over a weighted average period of one year.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

Total stock-based compensation recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in corporate expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $8.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

The Company is evaluating alternatives to its existing stock-based programs.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, including all potentially dilutive shares issuable under outstanding stock options and service-based non-vested restricted stock. Stock options and non-vested restricted stock are not considered in any diluted earnings per share calculations when the Company has a loss from continuing operations. Non-vested restricted shares subject to vesting based on the achievement of market conditions are treated as contingently issuable shares and are considered outstanding only upon the satisfaction of the market conditions.

The following table presents a reconciliation of average shares outstanding:

March 31,
2011 2010
Basic average shares outstanding 92,335,090 91,402,401
Net effect of stock options assumed to be exercised 13,071 —
Net effect of non-vested restricted stock assumed to be vested 30,577 —
Diluted average shares outstanding 92,378,738 91,402,401

Approximately 0.2 million shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share during the three months ended 2010 as the effect would have been anti- dilutive.

3. Fair value measurements

xbrl,body

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 820 for its financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. ASC 820 among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. ASC 820 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

The Company has recorded a retained interest with respect to the monetization of certain installment notes, which is recorded in other assets. The retained interest is an estimate based on the present value of cash flows to be received over the life of the installment notes. The Company’s continuing involvement with the entities is in the form of receipts of net interest payments, which are recorded as interest income and approximated $0.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010. The Company will receive the payment of the remaining principal on the installment notes during 2022 and 2023.

In accordance with ASC 325, Investments — Other, Subtopic 40 — Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets , the Company recognizes interest income over the life of the retained interest using the effective yield method. This income adjustment is being recorded as an offset to loss on monetization of notes over the life of the installment notes. In addition, fair value may be adjusted at each reporting date when, based on management’s assessment of current information and events, there is a favorable or adverse change in estimated cash flows from cash flows previously projected. The Company did not make any changes in previously projected cash flows during the first quarter of 2011 or 2010.

The following is a reconciliation of the Company’s retained interest:

2011
Balance January 1 $ 10,283
Additions —
Accretion of interest income 102
Balance March 31 $ 10,385

In the event of a failure and liquidation of the financial institution involved in our installment sales, the Company could be required to write-off the remaining retained interest recorded on its balance sheet in connection with the installment sale monetization transactions, which would have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

On October 21, 2009, the Company entered into a strategic alliance agreement with Southwest Airlines to facilitate the commencement of low-fare air service in May 2010 to the Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport. The Company has agreed to reimburse Southwest Airlines if it incurs losses on its service at the airport during the first three years of service by making specified break-even payments. There was no reimbursement required in 2010 and for the quarter ended March 31, 2011. The agreement also provides that Southwest’s profits

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

from the air service during the term of the agreement will be shared with the Company up to the maximum amount of our break-even payments. Profits from any calendar year, however, do not carryover from year to year.

The term of the agreement extends for a period of three years ending May 23, 2013. Although the agreement does not provide for maximum payments, the agreement may be terminated by the Company if the break-even payments to Southwest exceed $14 million in the first year of air service or $12 million in the second year. Southwest may terminate the agreement if its actual annual revenues attributable to the air service at the airport are less than certain minimum annual amounts established in the agreement. As of March 31, 2011 actual revenues have exceeded these minimum amounts.

At inception, the Company measured the associated standby guarantee liability at fair value based upon a discounted cash flow analysis based on management’s best estimates of future cash flows to be paid by the Company pursuant to the strategic alliance agreement. These cash flows are estimated using numerous estimates including future fuel costs, passenger load factors, air fares, and seasonality. Subsequently, the guarantee is measured at the greater of the fair value of the guarantee liability at inception or the payment amount that is probable and reasonably estimable of occurring, if any.

The Company carried a standby guarantee liability of $0.8 million at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 related to this strategic alliance agreement. The Company has made no payments under the standby guarantee.

In order to mitigate potential losses that may arise from changes in Southwest Airlines’ jet fuel costs, we entered into a short term premium neutral collar arrangement in May 2010 which expires in May 2011 with respect to the underlying cost of jet fuel for a portion of Southwest Airlines’ estimated fuel volumes. The notional quantity hedged is 200,000 gallons per month, with the call price at $2.55 per gallon and the put price at $1.93 per gallon.

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Homes and homesites substantially completed and ready for sale, and which management intends to sell in the near term under current market conditions, are measured at lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. The fair value of these properties is determined based upon final sales prices of inventory sold during the period (level 2 inputs) or estimates of selling prices based on current market data (level 3 inputs). Other properties for which management does not intend to sell in the near term under current market conditions, including development and operating properties, are evaluated for impairment based on management’s best estimate of the long-term use and eventual disposition of the property. If determined to be impaired, the fair value of these properties is determined based on the net present value of discounted cash flows using estimated future expenditures necessary to maintain and complete the existing project and management’s best estimates about future sales prices, sales volumes, sales velocity and holding periods (level 3 inputs). The estimated length of expected development periods, related economic cycles and inherent uncertainty with respect to these projects such as the impact of changes in development plans and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the projects through the development period, could result in changes to these estimates. For operating properties, an estimate of undiscounted cash flows requires management to make similar assumptions about the use and eventual disposition of such properties.

In the first quarter of 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded impairment charges in the commercial real estate segment of $0.8 million and in the residential real estate segment of $0.1 million, respectively. As a result of the decision to indefinitely delay the development of the new corporate headquarters building in VentureCrossings Enterprise Centre, the Company impaired $0.8 million of predevelopment costs during the first quarter of 2011.

lands. The rural land sales segment primarily sells parcels of land included in the Company’s timberland holdings. The forestry segment produces and sells pine pulpwood, sawtimber and other forest products.

The Company uses income (loss) from continuing operations before equity in income (loss) of unconsolidated affiliates, income taxes and noncontrolling interest for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to each segment and assessing each segment’s performance, which the Company believes represents current performance measures.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described above in the summary of significant accounting policies herein and in our Form 10-K. Total revenues represent sales to unaffiliated customers, as reported in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

11. Contingencies

The Company and its affiliates are involved in litigation on a number of matters and are subject to various claims which arise in the normal course of business, including claims resulting from construction defects and contract disputes. When appropriate, the Company establishes estimated accruals for litigation matters which meet the requirements of ASC 450 — Contingencies.

The Company is subject to costs arising out of environmental laws and regulations, which include obligations to remove or limit the effects on the environment of the disposal or release of certain wastes or substances at various

sites, including sites which have been previously sold. It is the Company’s policy to accrue and charge against earnings environmental cleanup costs when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and an amount can be reasonably estimated. As assessments and cleanups proceed, these accruals are reviewed and adjusted, if necessary, as additional information becomes available.

The Company’s former paper mill site in Gulf County and certain adjacent properties are subject to various Consent Agreements and Brownfield Site Rehabilitation Agreements with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. The paper mill site has been rehabilitated by Smurfit-Stone Container Corporation in accordance with these agreements. The Company is in the process of assessing and rehabilitating certain adjacent properties. Management is unable to quantify the rehabilitation costs at this time.

Other proceedings and litigation involving environmental matters are pending against the Company. Aggregate environmental-related accruals were $1.6 million at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. Although in the opinion of management none of our environmental litigation matters or governmental proceedings is expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity, it is possible that the actual amounts of liabilities resulting from such matters could be material.

On November 3, 2010 and December 7, 2010, two securities class action complaints were filed against the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors in the Northern District of Florida. These cases have been consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Florida and are captioned as Meyer v. The St. Joe Company et al. (No. 5:11-cv-00027). A consolidated class action complaint was filed in the case on February 24, 2011.

The complaint was filed on behalf of persons who purchased the Company’s securities between February 19, 2008 and October 12, 2010 and alleges that the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors, among others, violated the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by making false and/or misleading statements and/or by failing to disclose that, as the Florida real estate market was in decline, the Company failed to take adequate and required impairments and accounting write-downs on many of the Company’s Florida-based properties and as a result, the Company’s financial statements materially overvalued the Company’s property developments. The plaintiff also alleges that the Company’s financial statements were not prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and that the Company lacked adequate internal and financial controls, and as a result of the foregoing, the Company’s financial statements were materially false and misleading. The complaint seeks an unspecified amount in damages. On April 5, 2011, at the request of the plaintiff, the court dismissed the claims under the Securities Act of 1933 and dismissed the current and former director defendants from the case.

The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to the plaintiff’s remaining claims and intends to defend the action vigorously. The Company filed a motion to dismiss the case on April 6, 2011.

Additionally, on March 29, 2011, a derivative lawsuit was filed by a shareholder on behalf of the Company against certain of its current and former officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Florida (Nakata v. Greene et. al., No. 5:11-cv-00090). The complaint alleges breaches of fiduciary duties, waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment arising from substantially similar allegations as those described above in the Meyer case. The Company has received three other demand letters asking the Board of Directors to initiate derivative litigation in this matter.

On January 4, 2011 the SEC notified the Company it is conducting an informal inquiry into the Company’s policies and practices concerning impairment of investment in real estate assets. The Company is fully cooperating with the SEC in connection with the informal inquiry. The notification from the SEC does not indicate any allegations of wrongdoing, and an inquiry is not an indication of any violations of federal securities laws.

On October 21, 2009, the Company entered into a strategic alliance agreement with Southwest Airlines to facilitate the commencement of low-fare air service in May 2010 to the Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport. The Company has agreed to reimburse Southwest Airlines if it incurs losses on its service at the airport during the first three years of service. The agreement also provides that Southwest’s profits from the air service during the term of the agreement will be shared with the Company up to the maximum amount of its break-even payments.

The term of the agreement extends for a period of three years after the commencement of Southwest’s air service at the airport. Although the agreement does not provide for maximum payments, the agreement may be terminated

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

by the Company if the payments to Southwest exceed $14 million in the first year of air service or $12 million in the second year. The agreement also provides that Southwest’s profits from the air service during the term of the agreement will be shared with the Company up to the maximum amount of our break-even payments. Profits from any calendar year, however, do not carryover from year to year. Southwest may terminate the agreement if its actual annual revenues attributable to the air service at the airport are less than certain minimum annual amounts established in the agreement. The Company carries a standby guarantee liability of $0.8 million at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 related to this strategic alliance agreement.

The Company has retained certain self-insurance risks with respect to losses for third party liability and property damage.

At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company was party to surety bonds of $27.6 million and $27.9 million, respectively, and standby letters of credit in the amount of $0.8 million at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 which may potentially result in liability to the Company if certain obligations of the Company are not met.

xbrl,n

12. Concentration of Risks and Uncertainties

xbrl,body

The Company’s real estate investments are concentrated in the State of Florida in a number of specific development projects. Uncertainty of the duration of the prolonged real estate and economic slump could have an adverse impact on the Company’s real estate values and could cause the Company to sell assets at depressed values in order to pay ongoing expenses.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents, notes receivable and retained interests. The Company deposits and invests excess cash with major financial institutions in the United States. Balances may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits.

Some of the Company’s notes receivable are from homebuilders and other entities associated with the real estate industry. As with many entities in the real estate industry, revenues have contracted for these companies, and they may be increasingly dependent on their lenders’ continued willingness to provide funding to maintain ongoing liquidity. The Company evaluates the need for an allowance for doubtful notes receivable at each reporting date.

On October 21, 2009, the Company entered into a strategic alliance agreement with Southwest Airlines to facilitate the commencement of low-fare air service in May 2010 to the Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport. The Company has agreed to reimburse Southwest Airlines if it incurs losses on its service at the airport during the first three years of service. See Note 3 for further discussion of this standby guarantee.

Smurfit-Stone’s Panama City mill is the largest consumer of pine pulpwood logs within the immediate area in which most of the Company’s timberlands are located. In July of 2010, Smurfit-Stone emerged from approximately 18 months of bankruptcy protection, and during the first quarter of 2011, RockTenn announced its acquisition of Smurfit-Stone. Deliveries made by St. Joe during Smurfit-Stone’s bankruptcy proceedings were uninterrupted and payments were made on time. Under the terms of the supply agreement, Smurfit-Stone and its successor RockTenn would be liable for any monetary damages as a result of the closure of the mill due to economic reasons for a period of one year. Nevertheless if the Smurfit-Stone mill in Panama City were to permanently cease operations, the price for our pulpwood may decline, and the cost of delivering logs to alternative customers would increase.

On February 15, 2011, the Board of Directors adopted a Common Stock Purchase Rights Plan. On March 4, 2011 the Board of Directors amended the plan such that the rights which were previously dividended to holders of record of common stock as of the close of business on February 28, 2011, expired on March 4, 2011.

Overview

We own a large inventory of land suitable for development in Florida. The majority of our land is located in Northwest Florida and has a very low initial cost basis before considering development costs. In order to increase the value of these core real estate assets, we seek to reposition portions of our substantial timberland holdings for higher and better uses. We seek to create value in our land by securing entitlements for higher and better land-uses, facilitating infrastructure improvements, developing community amenities, undertaking strategic and expert land planning and development, parceling our land holdings in creative ways, performing land restoration and enhancement and promoting economic development.

We have four operating segments: residential real estate, commercial real estate, rural land sales and forestry.

Our residential real estate segment generates revenues from:

• the sale of developed homesites to retail customers and builders;
• the sale of parcels of entitled, undeveloped land;
• the sale of housing units built by us;
• resort and club operations;
• rental income; and
• brokerage fees on certain transactions.

Our commercial real estate segment generates revenues from the sale or lease of developed and undeveloped land for retail, multi-family, office, hotel and industrial uses and rental income. Our rural land sales segment generates revenues from the sale of undeveloped land, land with limited development, easements and mitigation bank credits. Our forestry segment generates revenues from the sale of pulpwood, sawtimber, standing timber and forest products and conservation land management services.

Our business, financial condition and results of operations continued to be adversely affected during the first quarter of 2011 by the real estate downturn, slow economic recovery and other adverse market conditions. This challenging environment has exerted negative pressure on the demand for all of our real estate products.

The large oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico from the Deepwater Horizon incident has had a negative impact on our properties, results of operations and stock price and has created uncertainty about the future of the Gulf Coast region. We have filed lawsuits seeking the recovery of damages against parties we believe are responsible for the oil spill. We cannot be certain, however, of the amount of any recovery or the ultimate success of our claims.

We relocated our corporate headquarters from Jacksonville, Florida to WaterSound, Florida in 2010. We are also consolidating other existing offices into the WaterSound location. Although we previously announced that we would build a new headquarters facility at our VentureCrossings Enterprise Centre, we have now decided to indefinitely delay the development of the new corporate headquarters building. We are reallocating this capital to advance infrastructure construction supporting revenue generating industrial, warehouse and office developments. We impaired $0.8 million of predevelopment costs related to the new building in the first quarter of 2011.

We had significant management changes in the first quarter of 2011. On January 1, 2011, Bruce R. Berkowitz and Charles M. Fernandez joined our Board of Directors. Mr. Berkowitz and Mr. Fernandez are the Managing Member and President, respectively, of Fairholme Capital Management, L.L.C., which is the largest beneficial owner of our common stock. Once having become involved with the Board, Messrs. Berkowitz and Fernandez raised a number of matters regarding our business strategy, management, corporate governance and compensation practices.

Messrs. Berkowitz and Fernandez resigned from the Board on February 14, 2011 and announced that they would begin a process to replace the existing Board. As a result of discussions with the Board, on February 25, 2011, Wm. Britton Greene resigned from the Board and on March 3, 2011, Mr. Greene resigned as President and Chief Executive Officer, and three other directors resigned from the Board. Messrs. Berkowitz and Fernandez were reappointed to the Board along with Howard S. Frank and Governor Charles J. Crist.

On March 4, 2011, one of our directors, Hugh M. Durden, was empowered with the duties of an interim Chief Executive Officer while serving in his capacity as a director, Mr. Berkowitz was elected Chairman of the Board and Mr. Fernandez was elected Vice-Chairman of the Board. Effective as of March 21, 2011, the Board appointed Park Brady as our Chief Operating Officer.

On April 11, 2011, we entered into separation agreements with four additional members of senior management, including William S. McCalmont, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Roderick T. Wilson, President-West Bay Sector, Rusty Bozman, Senior Vice President-Corporate Development and Reece B. Alford, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary. Mr. McCalmont and Mr. Alford will remain with the Company through May 20, 2011 with a six-month consulting period after separation, and the separation of Messrs. Wilson and Bozman was effective immediately. The Company will incur charges of approximately $4.3 million in the second quarter of 2011 as a result of these separation agreements.

We also announced that Janna L. Connolly, currently our Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer, will assume the position of Chief Financial Officer on May 21, 2011. The other senior executive positions will be filled internally.

Our new management and Board of Directors are currently reviewing a number of strategic alternatives in order to maximize the long-term intrinsic value of the Company. The alternatives being reviewed include a revised business plan, asset management opportunities, strategic alliances, joint ventures, strategic acquisitions, raising additional capital, asset sales and possible business combinations. Our management under the direction of the Board of Directors will internally perform this review of strategic alternatives, and we have terminated our previously announced engagement of an investment banking firm to assist us in this effort.

On March 31, 2011, we entered into a $55.9 million agreement with an investment fund for the sale of a timber deed which gives the investment fund the right to harvest timber on specific tracts of land (encompassing 40,975

Folio 22 /Folio

Table of Contents

acres) over a maximum term of 20 years. As part of the agreement, we also entered into a Thinnings Supply Agreement to purchase first thinnings of timber included in the timber deed at fair market value from the investment fund. During the quarter ended March 31, 2011, we recognized revenue of $54.5 million related to the timber deed with $1.4 million recorded as an imputed land lease to be recognized over the life of the timber deed. The resulting pre-tax gain on this timber deed transaction was $50.3 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2011. More information can be found in the Form 8-K filed on March 31, 2011 and in Exhibit 10.1 hereto.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We base these estimates on historical experience, available current market information and on various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Additionally we evaluate the results of these estimates on an on-going basis. Management’s estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, and our accounting estimates are subject to change.

The critical accounting policies that we believe reflect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements are set forth in Item 7 of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. There have been no significant changes in these policies during the first three months of 2011, however there is no assurance that these policies will not change in the future.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

See Note 1 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this report for recently issued accounting standards, including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects on our consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations

The Company generated net income of $14.1 million, or $.15 per share in the first quarter of 2011, compared to a net loss of $(11.4) million, or $(0.13) per share, for the first quarter of 2010. Results for the three months ended March 31, 2011 include a pre-tax gain of $50.3 million from the sale of the timber deed to an investment fund. Excluding the gain resulting from the timber deed, the Company reported losses in the first quarter of 2011 due to ongoing depressed revenues and significant expenses.

During the first quarter of 2011, our results of operations included $16.8 million of the following significant pre-tax charges:

| • | Acceleration of $6.2 million of restricted stock amortization expense due to the change in control of
the Board of Directors and the vesting of most of our former President and
Chief Executive Officer’s restricted stock; |
| --- | --- |
| • | Legal fees totaling $5.3 million due to defending the securities class action lawsuit,
responding to the SEC informal inquiry, engaging a new law firm related to the foregoing,
pursuing the three lawsuits we filed against the parties we believe are responsible for
the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, and legal costs incurred in connection with the change of
control of the Board and other corporate governance matters, |
| • | Restructuring charges of $4.5 million including payments to our former President and
Chief Executive Officer under the terms of his Separation Agreement, |

Consolidated Results

Revenues and expenses. The following table sets forth a comparison of revenues and certain expenses of continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

Cost of timber sales 6.2 4.4 1.8 40.9
Cost of other revenues 0.5 0.5 — —
Other operating expenses 7.0 8.0 (1.0 ) (12.5 )
Total $ 22.1 $ 20.0 $ 2.1 10.5 %

The increase in real estate sales revenues and cost of real estate sales for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to 2010 was primarily due to increased sales in our residential real estate and rural land sales segment. Residential real estate sales, however; continue to remain weak as a result of oversupply and depressed prices within the Florida real estate markets.

Resort and club revenues and cost of revenues increased for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to 2010. The increase was primarily due to rate and occupancy increases.

Timber revenues increased $56.2 million due to the sale of the timber deed to an investment fund, as well as improved revenues from other timber operations. Cost of timber sales and depreciation also increased, to a lesser extent, as a result of the sale of the timber deed.

Corporate expense. Corporate expense, representing corporate general and administrative expenses, was $18.2 million and $5.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As a result of the change in control of the Board of Directors in the first quarter of 2011, the majority of our unvested restricted stock became fully-vested causing an acceleration of amortization expense resulting in a charge of $4.7 million. We also accelerated the vesting of most of our former President and CEO’s restricted stock pursuant to his Separation Agreement which resulted in a charge of $1.5 million.

Legal fees increased $5.1 million in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the first quarter of 2010, primarily due to defending the securities class action lawsuit, responding to the SEC informal inquiry, engaging a new law firm to defend the securities class action lawsuit and the SEC informal inquiry, pursuing the three lawsuits we filed against the parties we believe are responsible for the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, and legal costs incurred in connection with the change in control of the Board of Directors and other corporate matters.

Impairment Losses. We review our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Homes and homesites substantially completed and ready for sale and which management intends to sell in the near term under current market conditions, are measured at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Other properties for

Folio 24 /Folio

PAGEBREAK

Table of Contents

which management does not intend to sell in the near term under current market conditions, including development and operating properties are evaluated for impairment based on management’s best estimate of the long term use and eventual disposition of the property. During the first quarter of 2011 we recorded impairment charges of $0.8 million related to predevelopment costs written off in connection with the decision to indefinitely delay the development of our new corporate headquarters, and in 2010 we recorded impairment charges of $0.1 million in the residential real estate segment.

Restructuring charge. On February 25, 2011, we entered into a Separation Agreement with Wm. Britton Greene in connection with his resignation as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and as director of the Company. In the first quarter of 2011, the Company expensed $4.2 million under the terms of this agreement.

We relocated our corporate headquarters during 2010. We recorded a charge of $0.3 million during the first quarter of 2011 related to termination and relocation benefits to employees as well as certain ancillary facility related costs. The total amount of termination and relocation benefits expected to be paid in 2011 is $1.8 million. See Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements for further information regarding our restructuring charges.

Other income (expense). Other income (expense) consists of investment income, interest expense, gains on sales and dispositions of assets, fair value adjustment of our retained interest in monetized installment note receivables and other income. Other income (expense) was $0.3 million and $(0.5) million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The $0.8 million increase in other income was primarily the result of a $1.3 million charge for litigation settlement that occurred in the first quarter of 2010.

Equity in (loss) income of unconsolidated affiliates. We have investments in affiliates that are accounted for by the equity method of accounting. Equity in (loss) income of unconsolidated affiliates was less than $0.1 million and $(0.4) million in the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010. Equity in (loss) income primarily related to joint ventures within our residential real estate segment which are now substantially sold out.

Income tax expense (benefit). Income tax expense (benefit) totaled $7.6 million and $(6.6) million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Our effective tax rate was 35% and 37% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Segment Results

Residential Real Estate

Our residential real estate segment typically plans and develops mixed-use resort, primary and seasonal residential communities of various sizes, primarily on our existing land. We own large tracts of land in Northwest Florida, including significant Gulf of Mexico beach frontage and waterfront properties, and land near Jacksonville and Tallahassee.

Our residential sales improved from the previous year, although due to the real estate downturn, the slow economic recovery, the Deepwater Horizon oil spill and other adverse market conditions, sales remain weak. Inventories of resale homes and homesites remain high in our markets and prices remain depressed, and predicting when real estate markets will return to health remains difficult. Although we have noticed some renewed interest in residential real estate activity, we do not expect any significant favorable changes in market conditions during 2011.

We review our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or change in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Homes and homesites substantially completed and ready for sale which management intends to sell in the near term under current market conditions are measured at lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Other properties that management does not intend to sell in the near term or under current market conditions, including development and operating properties, are evaluated for impairment based on management’s best estimate of the long-term use and eventual disposition of the property. For projects under development, an estimate of future cash flows on an undiscounted basis is performed. These estimates did not indicate any need for impairment charges in the first quarter 2011. In the first quarter of 2010, we recorded impairment charges of $0.1 million..

Resort and club revenues and cost of resort and club revenues include results of operations from the WaterColor Inn, WaterColor and WaterSound vacation rental programs and other resort, golf, club and marina operations. Other revenues and cost of other revenues consist primarily of brokerage fees and rental operations.

The increases in the amounts of real estate sales were due primarily to increases in resort as well as primary homesite closings to builders in our Northwest Florida communities. The average sales price in the first quarter of 2011 was also slightly better than the average sales price in the first quarter of 2010.

The following table sets forth home and homesite sales activity by geographic region and property type.

Our Northwest Florida resort and seasonal communities included WaterColor, WaterSound Beach, WaterSound, WaterSound West Beach, WindMark Beach, RiverCamps on Crooked Creek, SummerCamp Beach and Wild Heron, while primary communities included Hawks Landing and Southwood. RiverTown is our only remaining community in Northeast Florida.

We sold 14 homesites in the first quarter of 2011 in WaterColor, WaterSound and WaterSound West Beach compared to 5 homesite closings in the first quarter of 2010. We also sold seven homesites in Southwood and one homesite in Gulf County.

Resort and club revenues included revenues from the WaterColor Inn, WaterColor and WaterSound vacation rental programs and other resort, golf, club and marina operations. Resort and club revenues in total increased and were $5.1 million and $4.6 million in the first quarter of 2011 and 2010. The increase was primarily due to rate and occupancy increases at the WaterColor Inn and vacation rental programs. Cost of resort and club revenues were $6.6 million and $6.5 million in the first quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Other operating expenses included salaries and benefits, marketing, project administration, support personnel and other administrative expenses. Other operating expenses were $4.5 million in the first quarter of 2011 compared to $5.3 million in the first quarter of 2010. The decrease of $0.8 million in operating expenses was primarily due to reductions in employee costs along with reductions in insurance costs, other project costs, and real estate taxes.

Other expense was ($0.8) million during the first quarter of 2011 which primarily consisted of interest expense associated with our community development district obligations.

Commercial Real Estate

Our commercial real estate segment plans, develops and entitles our land holdings for a broad range of retail, office, hotel, industrial and multi-family uses. We sell and develop commercial land and provide development opportunities for national and regional retailers as well as strategic partners in Northwest Florida. We also offer land for commercial and light industrial uses within large and small-scale commerce parks, as well as for a wide range of multi-family rental projects. Consistent with residential real estate, the markets for commercial real estate, particularly retail, remain weak.

Other revenue primarily relates to lease income associated with a long term land lease with the Port Authority of Port St. Joe.

We had one commercial land sale in Bay County during the three months ended March 31, 2011 of 1.2 acres at an average price of $192,000 per acre and one in Bay County during the three months ended March 31, 2010 of 2.8 acres at an average price of $110,000 per acre.

Rural Land Sales

Our rural land sales segment markets and sells tracts of land of varying sizes for rural recreational, conservation and timberland uses. The land sales segment at times prepares land for sale for these uses through harvesting, thinning and other silviculture practices, and in some cases, limited infrastructure development. Like residential and commercial land, prices for rural land have also declined as a result of the current difficult market conditions.

March 31, 2010 2 72 $ 5,541 $ 0.4 $ 0.3

We have made a strategic decision to sell fewer acres of rural land as we have generated cash from other sources. We may, however, rely on rural land sales as a significant source of revenues and cash in the future.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we closed one sale of 98 acres in Leon county for $2.8 million, or $28,004 per acre. Average sales prices per acre vary according to the characteristics of each particular piece of land being sold and its highest and best use. As a result, average prices will vary from one period to another.

We also sell credits to developers, utility companies and other users from our wetland mitigation banks. Included in real estate sales was $0.6 million related to the sale of nine mitigation bank credits at an average sales price of $65,201 per credit during the first quarter of 2010.

Forestry

Our forestry segment focuses on the management and harvesting of our extensive timber holdings. We grow, harvest and sell timber and wood fiber and provide land management services for conservation properties.

The table below sets forth the results of the continuing operations of our forestry segment for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

On March 31, 2011, we entered into a $55.9 million agreement with an investment fund for the sale of a timber deed which gives the investment fund the right to harvest timber on specific tracts of land (encompassing 40,975 acres) over a maximum term of 20 years. As part of the agreement, we also entered into a Thinnings Supply Agreement to purchase first thinnings of timber included in the timber deed at fair market value from the investment fund. During 2011, we recognized revenue of $54.5 million related to the timber deed with $1.4 million recorded as an imputed land lease to be recognized over the life of the timber deed. The resulting pre-tax gain on this timber deed transaction, net of cost of sales and depletion of $4.2 million was $50.3 million during the period ended March 31, 2011.

We have a wood fiber supply agreement with Smurfit-Stone Container Corporation (“Smurfit-Stone”). Sales under this agreement were $4.0 million (155,000 tons) in the first quarter of 2011 and $3.7 million (175,000 tons) during the first quarter of 2010. Open market sales in the first quarter totaled $4.1 million (140,000 tons) in 2011 as compared to $2.3 million (110,000 tons) in 2010.

Table of Contents

Cost of sales for the forestry segment increased $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2011 compared to 2010. The increase in cost of goods sold was due primarily to professional fees associated with the timber deed, along with higher log delivery expenses resulting from increased log sales and a higher proportion of delivered volume in the current period quarter.

Other income which consists primarily of income from hunting leases was $0.5 million during the first quarters of 2011 and 2010.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of $216.2 million, compared to $183.8 million as of December 31, 2010.

We currently invest our excess cash primarily in government-only money market mutual funds, short term U.S. treasury investments and overnight deposits, all of which are highly liquid, with the intent to make such funds readily available for operating expenses and strategic long-term investment purposes. The Company is evaluating this practice and may make changes to this practice in order to achieve higher levels of interest income in the future.

We believe that our current cash position, our undrawn $125 million revolving credit facility and the cash we anticipate to generate from operating activities will provide us with sufficient liquidity to satisfy our near term working capital needs and capital expenditures.

As more fully described in Note 7 of our consolidated financial statements, the credit facility contains covenants relating to leverage, unencumbered asset value, net worth, liquidity and additional debt. The credit facility does not contain a fixed charge coverage covenant. The credit facility also contains various restrictive covenants pertaining to acquisitions, investments, capital expenditures, dividends, share repurchases, asset dispositions and liens. We were in compliance with our debt covenants at March 31, 2011. No funds have been drawn on the credit facility as of March 31, 2011.

We have entered into a strategic alliance agreement with Southwest Airlines to facilitate low-fare air service to the Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport. We have agreed to reimburse Southwest Airlines if it incurs losses on its service at the airport during the first three years of service by making break-even payments. The agreement also provides that Southwest’s profits from the air service during the term of the agreement will be shared with us up to the maximum amount of our break-even payments. These cash payments and reimbursements could have a significant effect on our cash flows and results of operations depending on the results of Southwest’s operations of the air service.

During such periods, expenditures of $4.2 million in 2011 were primarily related to the commercial segment and expenditures of $1.4 million in 2010 were primarily related to our residential real estate segment..

by the improvements financed by the bonds. We have recorded a liability for CDD debt that is associated with platted property, which is the point at which the assessments become fixed or determinable. Additionally, we have recorded a liability for the balance of the CDD debt that is associated with unplatted property if it is probable and reasonably estimable that we will ultimately be responsible for repaying the CDD debt either as the property is sold by us or when assessed to us by the CDD. Accordingly, we have recorded debt of $29.1 million and $29.4 million related to CDD bonds as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Oil Spill Lawsuits

We have several ongoing lawsuits against certain parties we believe are responsible for the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The oil spill has negatively impacted our properties, results of operations and stock price. Each action alleges that the defendants were negligent, grossly negligent, and strictly liable for the damage caused to St. Joe, and we seek compensatory and punitive damages.

On March 15, 2011, Judge Leonard Stark of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware issued an order in our action against Transocean Holdings, LLC and its related entities agreeing with us that the case must proceed in Delaware state court, not in federal court. Transocean appealed that ruling to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, which promptly dismissed the appeal. On March 25, 2011, Judge Carl Barbier of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana, who is overseeing the federal multidistrict litigation against a number of the Deepwater Horizon defendants, temporarily stayed our case against Transocean until he determines certain

related legal issues, which are scheduled for oral argument on May 26, 2011. We have filed a notice of appeal from Judge Barbier’s order staying the Transocean action.

On March 29, 2011, we voluntarily dismissed our separate actions against Halliburton Energy Services, Inc. and M-I, L.L.C., and filed a new consolidated complaint against both entities in Delaware Superior Court. Halliburton and M-I removed the consolidated action to Delaware federal court, and we are now litigating whether this case, like the Transocean case, must proceed in state court. On April 15, 2011, Judge Barbier in the Eastern District of Louisiana ruled that our prior dismissal of the separate Halliburton and M-I actions was ineffective, and has restored those cases to that court’s docket. We have filed a petition for writ of mandamus with the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals seeking to overturn that order.

Shareholder Lawsuits

We have an ongoing securities class action lawsuit against St. Joe and certain of our current and former officers pending before Judge Richard Smoak in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Florida (Meyer v. The St. Joe Company et al., No. 5:11-cv-00027). A consolidated class action complaint was filed in the case on February 24, 2011 alleging various securities laws violations primarily related to our accounting for our real estate assets. On April 5, 2011, at the request of the lead plaintiff, Judge Smoak issued an order dismissing the claims under the Securities Act of 1933 and dismissing Deutsche Bank and the current and former director defendants from the case. We filed a motion to dismiss the case on April 6, 2011.

On March 29, 2011, a derivative lawsuit was filed by a shareholder on behalf of St. Joe against certain of its officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Florida (Nakata v. Greene et. al., No. 5:11-cv-00090). The complaint alleges breaches of fiduciary duties, waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment arising from substantially similar allegations as those described above in the Meyer case.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Our Board of Directors has authorized a total of $950.0 million for the repurchase of our outstanding common stock from shareholders from time to time (the “Stock Repurchase Program”), of which $103.8 million remained available at March 31, 2011. There is no expiration date for the Stock Repurchase Program, however, we have no present intention to repurchase any shares under the Stock Repurchase Program. In addition, our $125 million revolving credit facility requires that we not repurchase stock in amounts in excess of any cumulative net income that we have earned since January 1, 2007.
