PATRIOT TRANSPORTATION HOLDING, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2005
(Unaudited)

(1) Basis of Presentation. The accompanying consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of Patriot Transportation Holding,
Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company"). These statements have
been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America for interim financial
information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include
all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(primarily consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim
periods have been included. Operating results for the three months
and six months ended March 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending
September 30, 2005. The accompanying consolidated financial
statements and the information included under the heading
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations" should be read in conjunction with the
Company's consolidated financial statements and related notes
included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended September
30, 2004.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the Fiscal 2004
financial statements to conform to the presentation adopted in
Fiscal 2005.

(2) Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In December 2004, the FASB
issued a revised Statement No. 123 "Share-Based Payment." (SFAS
123R) This Statement establishes standards for the accounting for
transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments
for goods and services, and affects the Company's accounting for
its stock option plans. The standard is effective for the Company
at the beginning of its next fiscal year (October 1, 2005). The
Company intends to use the modified prospective application, and
therefore at the effective date compensation costs shall be
included in the determination of net income for all new, modified,
repurchased, or cancelled awards and all prior awards whose
requisite service conditions have not been met. Compensation costs
to be expensed upon adoption are the grant-date fair value of the
stock option awards. While we cannot determine the impact on
future net earnings as a result of the adoption of SFAS 123R, the
estimated compensation expense related to prior periods is
presented in Note 8. The compensation expense for future periods
will be dependent on the number of options granted, the market
price of the common stock at the date of grant, the vesting period
and other factors.

(3) Business Segments. The Company has identified two business
segments, each of which is managed separately along product lines.
The Company's operations are substantially in the Southeastern and
Mid-Atlantic states.

The transportation segment hauls liquid and dry commodities by
motor carrier. The real estate segment owns real estate of which a
substantial portion is under mining royalty agreements or leased.
The real estate segment also holds certain other real estate for
investment and is developing commercial and industrial properties.

Operating results and certain other financial data for the
Company's business segments are as follows (in thousands):

51,582 48,901
Less portion due in one year 1,867 7,716
$49,715 41,185

The Company has a $37,000,000 uncollaterized Revolving Credit
Agreement with four banks which was to terminate on December 31,
2004. On November 10, 2004, the Company and the four banks entered
into an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement (the
Revolver) which will terminate on December 31, 2009. The Revolver
bears interest at an initial rate of 1% over the selected LIBOR
which was 3.84% at March 31, 2005. The margin rate may change
quarterly based on the Company's ratio of Consolidated Total Debt
to Consolidated Total Capital. An initial commitment fee of 0.15%
per annum is payable quarterly on the unused portion of the
commitment. The commitment fee may also change quarterly based upon
the ratio described above. The Revolver contains restrictive
covenants including limitations on paying cash dividends.

(5) Related Party Transactions. The Company, through its
transportation subsidiaries, hauls commodities by tank and flatbed
trucks for Florida Rock Industries, Inc. (FRI). Charges for these
services are based on prevailing market prices. Other wholly owned
subsidiaries lease certain construction aggregates mining and other
properties to FRI. In addition, the Company outsources certain
administrative functions to FRI. The cost of these administrative
functions was $23,000 and $99,000 for the quarters ending March 31,
2005 and 2004, respectively.

On March 30, 2004, a subsidiary sold a parcel of land and
improvements containing approximately 6,321 acres in Suwannee and
Columbia Counties, near Lake City, Florida to a subsidiary of FRI
for $13,000,000 in cash, resulting in a gain of $5,655,000 after
income taxes of $3,465,000. The sales price was approved by the
Company's Audit Committee, composed of independent Directors of the
Company, after considering among other factors, an independent
appraisal, the current use of the property and consultation with
management. See Note (6) for further information.

(6) Discontinued operations. During fiscal year 2004, the Company
sold three tracts of land that were accounted for as discontinued
operations in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets" (SFAS 144). A summary of discontinued
operations is as follows:

Income from continuing operations $ .51 .42 1.06 .83
Discontinued operations $ - 1.92 - 1.96

For the six months ended March 31, 2004, 7,000 shares attributable
to outstanding stock options were excluded from the calculation of
diluted earnings per share because the exercise prices of the stock
options were greater than the average price of the common shares,
and therefore their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

(8) Stock-Based Compensation Plan. The Company accounts for its
stock-based employee compensation plans under the recognition and
measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees", and related interpretations. No stock-based
employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all
options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to
the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of
grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and
earnings per share if the company had applied the fair value
recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation", to stock-based employee compensation.

(9) Contingent liabilities. Certain of the Company's subsidiaries
are involved in litigation on a number of matters and are subject
to certain claims which arise in the normal course of business. The
Company has retained certain self-insurance risks with respect to
losses for third party liability and property damage. In the
opinion of management none of these matters are expected to have a
material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial
condition, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company maintains a Profit Sharing and Deferred Earnings
Plan (the "Plan") for its employees. Participants in the Plan
may direct their account balances to be invested in a number of
different investment options, including common stock of the
Company that is purchased by the Plan in the open market. The
acquisition by the Plan's trustee for the benefit and at the
direction of Plan participants of shares of Company common stock
have not been registered, and the Company intends to file a Form
S-8 to register the shares of its common stock acquired or to be
acquired by Plan participants.

The Company is subject to claims for rescission of
acquisitions of shares of the Company's common stock occurring
during the one year period following the date of acquisition of
the shares (the statute of limitations period that applies to
claims for rescission), due to the failure to register the shares
in accordance with applicable securities law. Approximately
1,918 shares of the Company's common stock were transferred to
Plan participants during the Plan year ended December 31, 2004
and, if rescinded, would have an aggregate repurchase price of
approximately $68,000, plus interest. The Company may also face
penalties in connection with these matters and could be subject
to claims for rescission for acquisitions prior to the one-year
statute of limitation.

The Company does not believe that any potential rescission
liability would be material to its balance sheet or shareholders'
equity.


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview - The Company's operations are influenced by a number of
external and internal factors. External factors include levels of
economic and industrial activity in the United States and the
Southeast, petroleum product usage in the Southeast which is driven
in part by tourism and commercial aviation, fuel costs, driver
availability and cost, regulations regarding driver qualifications
and hours of service, construction activity, FRI's sales from the
Company's mining properties, interest rates and demand for
commercial warehouse space in the Baltimore/Washington area.
Internal factors include revenue mix, capacity utilization, auto
and workers' compensation accident frequencies and severity, other
operating factors, administrative costs, and construction costs of
new projects.

During the first half of fiscal 2005, the transportation segment's
ten largest customers accounted for approximately 43% of the
transportation segment's revenue. One of those customers accounted
for 10.6% of transportation segment's revenues. The loss of any
one of these customers could have an adverse effect on the
Company's revenues and income.

Financial results of the Company for any individual quarter are not
necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year.

Comparative Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended
March 31, 2005 and 2004

Consolidated Results. - Income from continuing operations for the
second quarter of fiscal 2005 was $1,545,000, an increase of
$299,000 or 24% compared to $1,246,000 for the same period last
year. The second quarter of 2004 included $5,727,000 in income from
discontinued operations resulting in net income of $6,973,000
compared to net income of $1,545,000 for the second quarter of
2005. Fully diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of
fiscal 2005 was $0.51 compared to $2.34 in the second quarter of
fiscal 2004.

Revenues Second Quarter 2005 vs Second Quarter 2004 -
Transportation segment revenues were $27,496,000 in the second
quarter of 2005, an increase of $3,215,000 over the same quarter
last year. Fuel surcharges accounted for $1,282,000 of the
increase, resulting from higher diesel fuel costs during the
quarter compared to the same quarter last year. Excluding fuel
surcharges, revenue per mile increased 5.2%, reflecting better
pricing for our services. Revenue miles in the current quarter were
up 2.9% compared to the second quarter of 2004.

Expenses Second Quarter 2005 vs Second Quarter 2004 - The
Transportation segment cost of operations in the second quarter of
2005 increased $2,904,000 to $24,289,000, as compared to
$21,385,000 in the same quarter last year. The primary factors for
the increase are higher diesel fuel costs and an increase in risk
and health insurance costs. Our average diesel fuel cost per gallon
increased 30.3% in the second quarter of 2005 compared to the same
quarter last year.

Gross profit $ 2,462 54% 2,113 51%


Revenues Second Quarter 2005 vs Second Quarter 2004 - Real Estate
segment revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2005 were
$4,518,000, an increase of $413,000 or 10.1% over the same quarter
last year. Lease revenue from developed properties increased
$325,000 or 11.9%, due to an increase in occupied square feet
resulting from the purchase of two completed buildings in March
2004 and the purchase of one building in early November 2004. These
purchases added 491,000 square feet, of which 339,000 was leased
during the second quarter of fiscal 2005. Royalties from mining
operations increased as a result of increased royalties per ton.

Expenses Second Quarter 2005 vs Second Quarter 2004 - Real estate
segment expenses increased slightly to $2,056,000 during the second
quarter of fiscal 2005, compared to $1,992,000 for the same quarter
last year. Expenses related to development activities increased as
a result of the new building additions.

Consolidated Gross Profit - Consolidated gross profit was
$5,669,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2005 compared to
$5,009,000 in the same period last year, an increase of 13.2%.

year.

Discontinued Operations - During fiscal 2004 the Company had three
sales of real estate that have been accounted for as discontinued

operations, net of income taxes.

The results of operations of these properties, consisting of
royalty and rental income, operating expenses and depreciation,
have been reclassified to discontinued operations. Income from the
disposed properties, net of income taxes of $44,000 was $72,000 for
the three months ending March 31, 2004.

One of these properties was sold during the quarter ended March 31,
2004 and the gain from sale of $5,655,000 after income taxes of
$3,465,000 has been recorded as discontinued operations.

Net income - Primarily as a result of the property sale in the
second quarter of 2004, net income decreased to $1,545,000 in the
second quarter of fiscal 2005 from $6,973,000 in the same period
last year. Diluted earnings per share decreased to $0.51 in the
second quarter of fiscal 2005 from $2.34 in the same period last
year.

$791,000 or 15.3%, due to a 25.3% increase in occupied square feet
resulting from the purchase of two completed buildings in March
2004 and the purchase of one building in early November 2004. These
purchases added 491,000 square feet, of which 339,000 was leased
during the first six months of fiscal 2005. Royalties from mining
operations increased as a result of increased royalties per ton.

for the six months ending March 31, 2004.

One of these properties was sold during the quarter ending March

$3,465,000 and is included in discontinued operations.

Net income - As a result of the foregoing, net income decreased to
$3,201,000 in the first six months of fiscal 2005 from $8,291,000
in the same period last year. Diluted earnings per share decreased

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the first six months of Fiscal 2005, the Company used cash
provided by operations, cash released from escrow and borrowings
under its construction loan to finance its operating activities and
the purchase of $21,203,000 in property and equipment. At September
30, 2004, the Company had $16,553,000 of cash from the sales of
real estate during fiscal 2004, which were placed in escrow in
anticipation of using the funds in an Internal Revenue Code Section
1031 tax-deferred exchange. A portion of the funds were used to
purchase land and buildings for $7,200,000 in a tax deferred
exchange and the remaining funds were released from escrow.

The Company has a $37,000,000 revolving line of credit (Revolver)
under which $34,018,000 was available at March 31, 2005. During the
first quarter of fiscal 2005, the Company renewed the Revolver with
substantially the same terms and conditions, except that the
termination date was extended to December 31, 2009.

The Company had $11,932,000 of irrevocable letters of credit
outstanding at March 31, 2005. Most of the letters of credit are
irrevocable for a period of one year and are automatically extended
for additional one-year periods unless notified by the issuing bank
not less than thirty days before the expiration date.
Substantially all of these were issued for workers' compensation
and liability insurance retentions. If these letters of credit are
not extended the Company will have to find alternative methods of
collateralizing or funding these obligations.

The Board of Directors has authorized Management to repurchase
shares of the Company's common stock from time to time as
opportunities arise. As of March 31, 2005, $3,490,000 was
authorized to repurchase the Company's common stock.

The Company does not currently pay any dividends on common stock.

In December 2003, the Company committed to develop a 145,000 square
foot build-to-suit warehouse/office building pursuant to a 15 year
triple net lease. This project is expected to cost approximately
$14,900,000 and is being financed through a construction loan and
the Company's existing Revolver. The terms of the construction
financing are for borrowings not to exceed $11,800,000 for a period
not to exceed 18 months converting to a 15 year non-recourse
mortgage at project completion. The interest rate is 6.17% for both
the construction and mortgage loans. Borrowings under the
construction loan totaled $6,490,0000 at March 31, 2005. The
building is scheduled for completion by July 2005.

While the Company is affected by environmental regulations, such
regulations are not expected to have a major effect on the
Company's capital expenditures or operating results.

Management believes that the Company is financially postured to be
able to take advantage of external and internal growth
opportunities in both our real estate and transportation segments.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In December 2004, the FASB issued
a revised Statement No. 123 "Share-Based Payment." (SFAS 123R) This
Statement establishes standards for the accounting for transactions
in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods and
services, and affects the Company's accounting for its stock option
plans. The standard is effective for the Company at the beginning
of its next fiscal year (October 1, 2005). The Company intends to
use the modified prospective application, and therefore at the
effective date compensation costs shall be included in the
determination of net income for all new, modified, repurchased, or
cancelled awards and all prior awards whose requisite service
conditions have not been met. Compensation costs to be expensed
upon adoption are the grant-date fair value of the stock option
awards. While we cannot determine the impact on future net
earnings as a result of the adoption of SFAS 123R, the estimated
compensation expense related to prior periods is presented in Note
8. The compensation expense for future periods will be dependent
on the number of options granted, the market price of the common
stock at the date of grant, the vesting period and other factors.

Related Party Transactions. The Company, through its transportation
subsidiaries, hauls commodities by tank and flatbed trucks for
Florida Rock Industries, Inc. (FRI). Charges for these services are
based on prevailing market prices. Other wholly owned subsidiaries
lease certain construction aggregates mining and other properties
to FRI. In addition, the Company outsources certain administrative
functions to FRI. The cost of these administrative functions was
$23,000 and $99,000 for the quarters ending March 31, 2005 and
2004, respectively.

The Company leases certain mining properties to FRI under long-term
leases. The Company and FRI believe that certain of these
properties, upon completion of mining and subsequent reclamation,
present valuable opportunities for residential or commercial
development. Accordingly, the Company and FRI have decided to
investigate jointly the ultimate market potential for these
properties. The Company expects that the preliminary investigation
will not be completed for several months.

On March 30, 2004, a subsidiary sold a parcel of land and
improvements containing approximately 6,321 acres in Suwannee and
Columbia Counties, near Lake City, Florida to a subsidiary of FRI
for $13,000,000 in cash, resulting in a gain of $5,655,000 after
income taxes of $3,465,000. The sales price was approved by the
Company's Audit Committee, composed of independent Directors of the
Company, after considering among other factors, an independent
appraisal, the current use of the property and consultation with
management. See Note (6) for further information.
