In August 2013, the Company acquired a $19.6 million performing mortgage loan, with an interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 450 basis points, collateralized by an upper upscale hotel in Atlanta, Georgia, for approximately $17.5 million, a discount of approximately $2.05 million.

Sold 3.405 acres to RaceTrac Petroleum, Inc. (“RaceTrac”) for $1.3 million or approximately $382,000 per acre. The Company recognized a loss on the sale of approximately $244,000, which was attributable to the high basis in the property as this land was repurchased in 2010.

Financial Results
Revenue
Total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013, increased 59.2% to approximately $25.8 million, compared to approximately $16.2 million during the same period in 2012. This increase was primarily from an increase of approximately $4.4 million, or 51.6%, in revenue generated by our income properties, an increase of approximately $2.8 million, or 91.9%, in revenue from our real estate operations, approximately $1.7 million in income from our investment in a commercial mortgage loan (including interest earned and the accretion of the discount which we did not have in 2012), and an increase of approximately $569,000, or 12.6%, in revenue from our golf operations. Revenue from our real estate operations benefited from three land sales totaling approximately 11.7 acres and revenue of approximately $3.0 million, compared to revenue of approximately $1.3 million in the same period in 2012, and increased revenues from our subsurface lease that was amended in September 2013. Total revenues for the quarter-ended December 31, 2013, increased 145.2% to approximately $9.8 million compared to approximately $4.0 million during the same period in 2012. The growth in total revenues during the fourth quarter of 2013, compared to the same period in 2012, reflects an increase of 50.5% in revenue from our income properties, a 477.4% increase in revenue from our real estate operations, primarily resulting from our land transactions which closed in December 2013 and the revenue from our amended subsurface lease, the approximate $1.1 million in income from our investment in the commercial mortgage loan, and the increase in revenue from our golf operations of approximately $254,000.
Net Income
Net income for the year ended December 31, 2013, was approximately $3.7 million, an improvement of 514.7% compared to net income of approximately $599,000 for the same period in 2012. Our results in 2013 benefited from an increase of approximately $9.6 million, or 59.2%, in revenues offset by an increase in our direct cost of revenues of approximately $3.6 million, or 52.3%, which reflect increased costs for two properties acquired in January 2013 under a base-stop lease structure and the higher cost of sales associated with two of our land transactions, which had a higher book basis because the land had been re-acquired by the Company. Our general and administrative costs were lower by approximately 18.0%, or approximately $1.2 million, lower legal costs and stock compensation costs in 2013 and due to a non-cash legal reserve of approximately $723,000 recognized in 2012. Net income for the quarter-ended December 31, 2013, was approximately $1.9 million or $0.32 per share, compared to net income of approximately $62,000, or $0.01 per share, during the same period in 2012.
Semi-Annual Dividend
The Company paid dividends of $0.06 per share in 2013, an increase of 50% from 2012. The Company has paid a dividend every year since 1976.

CEO and CFO Comments on Operating Results
Mark E.
