Segment performance

Real Estate Operations Segment: In the third quarter of 2022, revenue totaled $6.9 million compared to $892,000 in the third quarter of 2021. Operating loss was $89,000 in Q3 2022 versus an operating loss of $1.9 million in Q3 2021. The increase in revenue and lower operating loss reflect undeveloped property sales of $6.9 million in Q3 2022. Leasing Operations Segment: Revenue in Q3 2022 was $3.1 million compared to $5.4 million in Q3 2021. Operating income for the segment in Q3 2022 was $853,000 compared to $1.7 million in Q3 2021. The decrease in revenue and operating income primarily reflects the sale of The Santal in December 2021, partly offset by increased revenue at Lantana Place and Kingwood Place.
