PART I
Item 1. BUSINESS

(a) General
Maui Land & Pineapple Company, Inc. is a Hawaii corporation,
the successor to a business organized in 1909. The Company
consists of a landholding and operating parent company as well as
its principal wholly owned subsidiaries, Maui Pineapple Company,
Ltd. and Kapalua Land Company, Ltd. The "Company," as used
herein, refers to the parent and all of its subsidiaries.
The Company participates in joint ventures that are
accounted for by the equity method. The most significant of
these joint ventures is Kaahumanu Center Associates, the owner
and operator of a regional shopping center.
The industry segments of the Company are as follows:
(1) Pineapple - includes growing pineapple,
canning pineapple in tinplated steel containers
fabricated by the Company, production of pineapple
juice and fresh cut pineapple products and
marketing of canned pineapple products, pineapple
juice products and fresh whole and fresh cut
pineapple products.
(2) Resort - includes the development and sale of
resort real estate, property management and the
operation of recreational and retail facilities
and utility companies at Kapalua, Maui.
(3) Commercial & Property - includes the
Company's investment in Kaahumanu Center
Associates, the Napili Plaza shopping center, and
non-resort real estate development, rentals and
sales. It also includes the Company's land
entitlement and land and water asset management
activities.

(b) Financial Information About Segments
The information set forth under Note 13 to Consolidated
Financial Statements on page 18 of the Maui Land & Pineapple
Company, Inc. 2002 Annual Report is incorporated herein by
reference.

(c) Narrative Description of Business
(1) Pineapple
Maui Pineapple Company, Ltd. is the operating subsidiary for
the Company's Pineapple segment. It owns and operates fully
integrated facilities for the production of pineapple products.
Pineapple is cultivated on two Company-operated plantations
on Maui, Upcountry Maui and West Maui, which provided
approximately 92% of the fruit processed in 2002. The balance of
fruit processed was purchased from an independent Maui grower.
Two pineapple crops are normally harvested from each new
planting. The first, or plant crop, is harvested approximately
18 to 23 months after planting, and the second, or ratoon crop,
is harvested 12 to 14 months later. A third crop, the second
ratoon, may be harvested depending on a number of conditions.
Harvested pineapple is processed at the Company's cannery in
Kahului, Maui, where a full line of canned pineapple products is
produced, including solid pineapple in various grades and styles,
juice and juice concentrates. The cannery is located in a
foreign trade zone and operates most of the year. In 2002,
approximately 33% of production volume took place during June,
July and August. The metal containers used in canning pineapple
are produced in a Company-owned can plant on Maui. The metal is
imported from manufacturers in Japan. A warehouse is maintained
at the cannery site for inventory purposes.
The Company sells canned pineapple products as store-brand
pineapple with 100% HAWAIIAN U.S.A. stamped on the can lid. Its
products are sold principally to large grocery chains, other food
processors, wholesale grocers, the United States government and
to organizations offering a complete buyers' brand program to
affiliated chains and wholesalers serving both retail and food
service outlets. A substantial volume of the Company's pineapple
products is marketed through food brokers.
The Company sells fresh whole pineapple and fresh cut
pineapple products from Hawaii to retail and wholesale grocers in
Hawaii and the continental United States. Research to develop
new fresh cut and other fresh and processed pineapple products is
ongoing. The Company has a U.S. patent on its fresh cut
pineapple technology, which enhances the quality of the product
while extending the shelf life. The extended shelf life allows
the Company to ship its fresh cut product by ocean vessel in
refrigerated containers and set up local warehouse programs,
thereby facilitating distribution to retailers.
The Company sells pineapple juice and pineapple juice
blended with orange juice in plastic polyethyleneteraphthalate
(PET) bottles in various sizes to large grocery chains in the
continental U.S. The pineapple juice ingredients are shipped in
bulk from the Company's cannery on Maui to co-packers on the
mainland that bottle the juice to the Company's specifications.
As a service to its customers, the Company maintains
inventories of its products in public warehouses in the
continental U.S. The balance of its products is shipped directly
from Hawaii to its customers. The Company's canned pineapple
products are shipped from Hawaii by ocean transportation and are
then taken by truck or rail to customers or to public warehouses.
Fresh whole and fresh cut pineapple is shipped by air or by ocean
transportation.
In 2002, approximately 20 U.S. customers accounted for about
69% of the Company's pineapple sales from Hawaii. Export sales,
primarily to Japan, Canada and Western Europe, amounted to
approximately 2.7%, 2.1% and 3.3% of the Company's pineapple
sales from Hawaii in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Sales to
the United States government, mainly the Department of
Agriculture, amounted to approximately 16.5%, 19.2% and 12.3% of
total pineapple sales in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The
Company's pineapple sales office is in Concord, California.
Royal Coast Tropical Fruit Company, Inc. (a wholly owned
subsidiary of Maui Pineapple Company, Ltd.) markets pineapple
products produced outside of the state of Hawaii. Premium
Tropicals International LLC, a joint venture between Royal Coast
Tropical Fruit Company, Inc. and an Indonesian pineapple grower
and canner, markets and sells Indonesian canned pineapple in the
United States. Royal Coast Tropical Fruit Company, Inc. has a
51% ownership in a pineapple production subsidiary in Central
America. Pineapple cultivated in Central America is sold
principally as fresh whole fruit to the Company's customers in
the United States and Europe. Sales of pineapple from the
Central American subsidiary began in the fourth quarter of 2000.
The Company sells its products in competition with both
foreign and U.S. companies. Its principal competitors are three
U.S. companies, Dole Food Company, Inc., Del Monte Food Co., and
Del Monte Fresh Produce Company, which produce substantial
quantities of pineapple products, a significant portion of which
is produced in Central America and Southeast Asia. Other
producers of pineapple products in Thailand and Indonesia also
are a major source of competition. Foreign production has the
advantage of lower labor costs. The Company's principal
marketing advantages are the high quality of its fresh and canned
pineapple, the relative proximity to the U.S. West Coast fresh
fruit market and being the only U.S. canner of pineapple. Other
fresh and canned fruits and fruit juices also are a source of
competition. The price of the Company's products is influenced
by supply and demand of pineapple and other fruits and juices.
The availability of water for irrigation is critical to the
cultivation of pineapple. The Upcountry Maui area is commonly
susceptible to drought conditions, which can adversely affect
pineapple operations by resulting in poor yields (tons per acre)
and lower recoveries (the amount of saleable product per ton of
fruit processed). Approximately 83% of the fields in the
Company's Upcountry Maui plantation (Haliimaile) are equipped
with drip irrigation systems. Fields that are not drip irrigated
are in areas that typically receive adequate rainfall. The
Company's drip irrigation systems and Company controlled or
operated water sources help to mitigate the effects of periodic
drought conditions. However, during periods of prolonged
drought, the water supply can drop below levels that are
necessary to meet all of the Haliimaile plantation's water
requirements.
For further information regarding Pineapple operations, see
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.

(2) Resort
Kapalua Resort is a master-planned, golf resort community on
Maui's northwest coast. The Resort encompasses 1,650 acres
bordering the ocean with three white sand beaches and includes
two hotels, eight residential subdivisions, three championship
golf courses, two ten-court tennis facilities, a 22,000 square
foot shopping center and over ten restaurants. Water and sewer
transmission utilities are included in the Resort's operating
activities. Approximately 300 of the 1,650 acres are presently
undeveloped of which approximately 40 acres are zoned and
entitled for resort development.
Kapalua Land Company, Ltd. is the developing and operating
subsidiary of the Company's Resort segment. The Resort segment
includes the following wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company:
Kapalua Water Company, Ltd. and Kapalua Waste Treatment Company,
Ltd., public utilities providing water and waste transmission
services for the Kapalua Resort; Kapalua Advertising Company,
Ltd., an in-house advertising agency; and Kapalua Realty Company,
Ltd. (wholly owned by Kapalua Land Company, Ltd.), a general
brokerage real estate company located within the Resort.
The Company, through subsidiaries and joint ventures, developed
the Kapalua Resort, which opened in 1975 with The Bay Course. At
Kapalua, the Company owns three golf courses (The Bay, The
Village and The Plantation Courses), one tennis facility (The
Tennis Garden), a shopping center (The Kapalua Shops), the land
under both hotels (The Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua and Kapalua Bay
Hotel), as well as the acreage available for development and
various on-site administrative and maintenance facilities.
The Company operates the golf and tennis facilities, the
shopping center, ten retail shops, a vacation rental program (The
Kapalua Villas), and certain services to the Resort, including
shuttle, security and maintenance of common areas. The Company
is the ground lessor under long-term leases for both hotels and
also receives rental income from certain other properties. The
Company manages The Kapalua Club, a membership program that
provides certain benefits and privileges within the Resort for
its members.
Pineapple Hill Estates is a 31 half-acre custom lot
subdivision in the Kapalua Resort. Substantially all of the lots
were sold at the end of 2002.
The Coconut Grove on Kapalua Bay, 36 luxury beachfront
condominiums, were completed and sold in 2001. This project was
developed on the 12-acre parcel adjacent to the Kapalua Bay Hotel
by Kapalua Coconut Grove LLC, a 50/50 joint venture between the
Company and YCP Site 29, Inc., a subsidiary of Lend Lease
Corporation Limited, of Australia.
In 2000, the Kapalua Golf Academy, the Hale Irwin-designed
Village Course practice facility and the Village Clubhouse opened
for business. The clubhouse and golf academy development include
an 18-hole putting course and two commercial retail parcels.
This development provides the commercial foundation for the
Central Resort area. The current master plan includes a future
commercial Town Center, resort spa and additional residential
development. Design and entitlement work continue for the
Central Resort master plan.
The Company has begun the planning and entitlement process
for a proposed expansion of the Kapalua Resort into approximately
925 acres of Company-owned lands located upslope of the Resort.
If and when necessary governmental approvals are secured and the
development proceeds, this expansion would, under current plans,
include a possible expansion of the Resort's Village Golf Course,
development of up to 690 single and multifamily residential
units, and commercial components. Estimating the timing of
obtaining the necessary land use entitlement is difficult and it
may be several years before construction could start and product
is available for sale. Completion of this development could take
10 to 15 years.
The Kapalua Resort faces substantial competition from
alternative visitor destinations and resort communities in Hawaii
and throughout the world. Kapalua's marketing strategies target
upscale visitors with an emphasis on golf. In 2002,
approximately 9% of the visitors to Maui were international
travelers and 91% were domestic. Kapalua's primary resort
competitors on Maui are Kaanapali, which is approximately five
miles from Kapalua, and Wailea on Maui's south coast. Kapalua's
total guestroom inventory accounts for approximately 10% of the
units available in West Maui and approximately 6% of the total
inventory on Maui.
Nationally televised professional golf tournaments have been
a major marketing tool for Kapalua. Since January 1999, Kapalua
has hosted the Mercedes Championships, the season opening event
for the PGA TOUR. Through the non-profit organization, Kapalua
Maui Charities, Inc., the Company has agreements with Mercedes-
Benz and the PGA TOUR to host and manage this event at Kapalua
through January 2006. Advertising placements in key publications
are designed to promote Kapalua through the travel trade,
consumer, golf and real estate media.
For further information regarding Resort operations, see
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.

(3) Commercial & Property
Queen Ka'ahumanu Center (formerly Kaahumanu Center) is the
largest retail and entertainment center on Maui with a gross
leasable area (GLA) of approximately 570,000 square feet. Queen
Ka'ahumanu Center is owned by Kaahumanu Center Associates (KCA),
a 50/50 partnership between the Company, as general partner, and
the Employees' Retirement System of the State of Hawaii, as a
limited partner. As of December 31, 2002, 135 tenants occupied
98% of the available GLA. Queen Ka'ahumanu Center faces
substantial competition from other retail centers in Kahului and
other areas of Maui. Kahului has approximately nine major
shopping center destinations with a combined GLA of approximately
2.1 million square feet of retail space. Queen Ka'ahumanu
Center's primary competitors are the Maui Mall and the Maui
Marketplace, both located within three miles of Queen Ka'ahumanu
Center.
Napili Plaza is a 45,000 square foot retail and commercial
office center located in West Maui. As of December 31, 2002, 22
tenants occupied 79% of the GLA. Napili Plaza faces competition
from several retail locations in the Napili area, which have
approximately 231,000 square feet of GLA.
The Company's land entitlement and land and asset management
activities are included in the Commercial & Property segment.
Land entitlement is a lengthy process of obtaining the required
county, state and federal approvals to proceed with planned
development and use of the Company's land and satisfying all
conditions and restrictions imposed in connection with such
governmental approvals. The Company actively works with the
community and with regulatory agencies and legislative bodies at
all levels of government to obtain necessary entitlements
consistent with the needs of the community.
For further information regarding Commercial & Property
operations, see Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.

(4) Employees
In 2002, the Company employed approximately 1,870 employees.
Pineapple operations employed approximately 500 full-time and
approximately 780 seasonal or intermittent employees.
Approximately 57% of the Pineapple operations employees were
covered by collective bargaining agreements. Resort operations
employed approximately 460 employees, of which approximately 11%
were part-time employees and approximately 30% were covered by
collective bargaining agreements. The Company's Commercial &
Property operations employed approximately 80 employees and
approximately 30 employees were engaged in administrative
activities.

(5) Other Information
The Company's Pineapple segment engages in continuous
research to develop techniques to reduce costs through crop
production and processing innovations and to develop and perfect
new products. Improved production systems have resulted in
increased productivity by the labor force. Research and
development expenses approximated $1,004,000 in 2002, $1,073,000
in 2001 and $984,000 in 2000.
The Company has reviewed its compliance with federal, state
and local provisions that regulate the discharge of materials
into the environment or otherwise relate to the protection of the
environment. The Company does not expect any material future
financial impact as a result of compliance with these laws.
The Company has a commitment relating to the filtration of
water wells, as described in Note 14 to Consolidated Financial
Statements. The Company is unable to estimate the range of
potential financial impact for the possible filtration cost for
any future wells acquired or drilled by the County of Maui and,
therefore, has not made a provision in its financial statements
for such costs.
The Company expects to remediate certain soils on a Company-
owned development parcel that contain pesticide residues, as
described in Note 14 to Consolidated Financial Statements. The
cost of remediation will depend on the various alternatives as to
use of the property and the method of remediation. Until the
Company makes further progress on obtaining the proper
entitlements for the parcel, the ultimate use of the property
remains uncertain and therefore an estimate of the remediation
cost cannot be made.

(d) Financial Information About Geographic Areas
Revenues and long-lived assets attributable to foreign
countries were not material for the last three years.

Item 2. PROPERTIES
The Company owns approximately 28,600 acres of land on Maui.
Approximately 30% of the acreage is used directly or indirectly
in the Company's operations and the remaining land is primarily
in pasture or forest reserve. This land, most of which was
acquired from 1911 to 1932, is carried on the Company's balance
sheet at cost. The Company believes it has clear and
unencumbered marketable title to all such property, except for
the following:

(a) a perpetual conservation easement granted to the State of
Hawaii on a 13-acre parcel at Kapalua;
(b) certain easements and rights-of-way that do not materially
affect the Company's use of its property;
(c) a mortgage on approximately 4,400 acres used in pineapple
operations, which secures the Company's $15 million term loan
agreement;
(d) a mortgage on the three golf courses at Kapalua, which
secures the Company's $25 million revolving credit facility;
(e) a permanent conservation easement granted to The Nature
Conservancy of Hawaii, a non-profit corporation, covering
approximately 8,600 acres of forest reserve land;
(f) a $4,513,000 mortgage on the fee interest in Napili Plaza
shopping center; and
(g) a small percentage of the Company's land in various locations
on which multiple claims exist, for some of which the
Company has initiated quiet title actions.

Approximately 22,800 acres of the Company's land are located
in West Maui, approximately 5,700 acres are located in East Maui
(Upcountry) and approximately 28 acres are located in Kahului,
Maui.
The 22,800 acres in West Maui comprise a largely contiguous
parcel that extends from the sea to an elevation of approximately
5,700 feet and includes nine miles of ocean frontage with
approximately 3,300 lineal feet along sandy beaches, as well as
agricultural and grazing lands, gulches and heavily forested
areas. The West Maui acreage includes approximately 3,600 acres
comprising the Company's Honolua pineapple plantation and
approximately 1,650 acres designated for the Kapalua Resort.
The East Maui property is situated at elevations between
1,000 and 3,000 feet above sea level on the slopes of Haleakala
and approximately 3,140 acres are in pineapple operations as the
Company's Haliimaile plantation.
The Kahului acreage includes a can manufacturing plant and a
pineapple-processing cannery with interconnected warehouses at
the cannery site where finished product is stored and the
Company's administrative offices.
Approximately 3,000 acres of leased land are used in the
Company's pineapple operations. A major operating lease covering
approximately 1,500 acres of land expired on December 31, 1999
and is currently being renegotiated for a minimum term of ten
years. Thirteen leases expiring at various dates through 2018
cover the balance of the leased property. The aggregate land
rental for all leased land was $573,000 in 2002.
The Company's 51% owned subsidiary owns approximately 2,500
acres and leases approximately 235 acres of land in Costa Rica,
which is used for pineapple production. The 2,500 acres secures
the subsidiary's $1.3 million non-revolving term loan.

Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On April 5, 2001, the Company filed a lawsuit against Del
Monte Fresh Produce Company, Del Monte Fresh Produce (N.A.), and
Del Monte Fresh Produce (Hawaii), Inc. (collectively, Del Monte
Fresh), Maui Pineapple Company, Ltd., et al. v. Del Monte Fresh
Produce (Hawaii), Inc., et al. Civil No. 01-1-0173(1), (Circuit
Court of the Second Circuit, State of Hawaii). Del Monte Fresh
is one of the Company's principal competitors in the fresh
pineapple products business. In this lawsuit, the Company
maintains that it co-owns and has the right to grow, develop,
market, license and otherwise use two hybrid pineapple varieties
that were jointly developed by the Company and the predecessor of
Del Monte Fresh through the Pineapple Research Institute of
Hawaii. The first hybrid, which the Company refers to as "73-50"
and which Del Monte Fresh refers to as "CO-2" is marketed by the
Company under its "Hawaiian Gold" registered trademark. The
second hybrid, which the Company refers to as "73-114" and which
Del Monte Fresh refers to as "MD-2" is marketed by the Company
outside the United States under its "Royal Coast" (registered)
label and is marketed by Del Monte Fresh as "Del Monte Gold -
Extra-Sweet Pineapple" (registered). Del Monte Fresh disputes
the Company's co-ownership of and rights to these hybrids. In
the lawsuit, the Company seeks declaratory relief regarding its
co-ownership and rights as well as monetary damages, restitution,
injunctive relief, legal fees and costs and punitive damages.
Del Monte Fresh disputes the Company's co-ownership of and rights
to these hybrids and has asserted a counterclaim against the
Company seeking declaratory relief as well as damages. Discovery
is ongoing in this action and trial date has been set for
June 16, 2003.

On April 12, 2001, the Company filed a separate lawsuit
against Del Monte Fresh as well as Fresh Del Monte Produce, Inc.
and Del Monte Corporation, Maui Pineapple Company, Ltd., et al.
v. Del Monte Corporation, et al., Case No: C 01-01449 CRB, in the
United States District Court For the Northern District of
California (San Francisco Division). In this lawsuit, the
Company maintains that the defendants have, in their marketing of
pineapple and other fruit and vegetable products, infringed on
and diluted the Company's "Hawaiian Gold" registered trademark
in violation of the federal Lanham Act and state and common law
prohibitions on unfair competition, dilution, and trademark and
advertising infringement. In November 2002, the parties to this
lawsuit agreed to resolve all disputes and fully settle and
compromise the claims related to the Company's allegations that
Del Monte's use of the names "Del Monte Hawaiian Gold," "Del Monte
Hawaii Gold," and "Del Monte Gold" infringed upon the Company's
HAWAIIAN GOLD trademarks and a settlement agreement is in the
process of being finalized. One of the defendants in this action,
Del Monte Fresh Produce N.A., Inc., has filed a counterclaim
alleging that the Company has infringed on its patent on one of
the pineapple hybrid varieties that is the subject of the Second
Circuit Court, State of Hawaii action that is described in the
paragraph above. In that counterclaim, Del Monte seeks
injunctive relief, damages, treble damages, interest and
attorneys' fees. On January 31, 2003, Del Monte Fresh Produce
N.A., Inc, filed a motion to dismiss its patent counterclaim
with prejudice stating that its patent is not valid. The
motion is set for hearing on April 4, 2003.
