Deferred Revenue on Land Sale

 

In the 2012 third quarter, Griffin Land closed on the Dollar Tree Sale.  As required under the terms of the Dollar Tree Sale, Griffin Land was required to construct a sewer line to service the land that was sold.  As a result of Griffin Land’s continuing involvement with the land sold, this transaction was accounted for under the percentage of completion method, whereby the revenue and the pretax gain on sale were being recognized on a pro rata basis in a ratio equal to the percentage of the total costs incurred to the total anticipated costs of sale, including the costs of the required construction of the sewer line. Costs included in determining the percentage of completion were the cost of the land sold, allocated master planning costs of Tradeport, selling and transaction costs and estimated future costs related to the land sold.

 

As of June 1, 2013, all of the costs related to the Dollar Tree Sale have been incurred; therefore, from the date of the transaction through June 1, 2013, all of the revenue and pretax gain on sale have been recognized in Griffin’s consolidated statements of operations.  Griffin’s consolidated statement of operations for the 2013 second quarter and 2013 six month period include revenue of $1,590 and $2,474, respectively, and a pretax gain on sale of $1,368 and $2,109, respectively, from the Dollar Tree Sale.  Including the pretax gain on sale of $3,942 recognized in fiscal 2012, the total pretax gain on the Dollar Tree Sale was $6,051.  Property sales revenue and pretax gain in the 2013 second quarter and the 2013 six month period also include $177 from an amended agreement related to the Dollar Tree Sale.

Income Taxes

 

Griffin’s effective income tax rate on continuing operations was 30.3% for the 2013 six month period as compared to 40.1% in the 2012 six month period.  The effective tax rate in the 2013 six month period is based on management’s projections for the balance of the year.  To the extent that actual results differ from current projections, the effective income tax rate may change.

 

As of June 1, 2013, Griffin’s consolidated balance sheet includes a net current deferred tax asset of $542 and a net noncurrent deferred tax asset of $1,930.  Although Griffin has incurred pretax losses from continuing operations for the fiscal years ended December 1, 2012, December 3, 2011 and November 27, 2010, management has concluded that a valuation allowance against those net deferred tax assets is not required.

 

Examinations of Griffin’s fiscal 2007, fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2009 New York state income tax returns are currently being performed.
