Limoneira Company Announces Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2026 Financial Results
Reports Second Quarter Revenue of $23.9 Million, Exceeding Expectations
Full Year Fiscal 2026 Avocado Volume Guidance Increased to 5.5 Million to 6.5 Million Pounds from Previous
5 Million to 6 Million Range
Agromin Joint Venture Agreement Executed, Creating Potential High-Return Platform Expected to Generate Substantial Shared Earnings While Optimizing Underutilized Land and Conserved Water
Expected Fiscal Year 2026 Monetization of Paso Robles Vineyard Asset Through $16 Million Partial Sale Agreement
Water Monetization Strategy on Track for Fiscal Year 2026
SANTA PAULA, Calif.-- (BUSINESS WIRE) – June 9, 2026 -- Limoneira Company (the “Company” or “Limoneira”) (Nasdaq: LMNR), a diversified lemon and avocado growing and lemon packing company with related agribusiness activities and real estate development operations, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended April 30, 2026.
The Company continues to execute on its value creation strategy of growing agriculture income and monetizing land and water assets.
•Agriculture initiatives include:
•Streamlining operations;
•Expanding avocado production;
•Optimizing lemon packing with recently announced Sunkist partnership; and
•Expanding organic recycling facility.
•Land and water assets initiatives include:
•Selling non-strategic land assets (remaining near-term pipeline); and
•Selling certain water rights (near and medium-term pipeline).
Management Comments
Harold Edwards, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated, “Our second quarter results demonstrate our continued efforts to execute our strategic transformation to position Limoneira for long-term value creation. We exceeded expectations for revenue and adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter, reinforcing our confidence in the strategic decisions we are implementing. The fundamentals of our business are strengthening as we track toward our targeted $10 million in annual selling, general and administrative savings, excluding a second quarter allowance on foreign receivables, and benefiting from improved operational efficiency through our Sunkist partnership. Our avocado production capacity continues to expand with 800 non-bearing acres maturing over the next two to four years, and we’ve increased our full-year avocado volume guidance to 5.5 to 6.5 million pounds, reflecting the strength of our growing operations. The 400 acres of avocados we planted in 2023 and 2024 are expected to set a crop this year and be additive to volume in fiscal year 2027. Additionally, continued high levels of fresh lemon utilization are optimizing our product mix and revenue per acre.
Beyond our core agricultural business, we continue to unlock value from our diversified asset base. This quarter, we completed two strategic initiatives: our Agromin joint venture, which we expect to create a new high-return platform generating substantial shared earnings while optimizing underutilized land and conserved water, and the partial sale of our Paso Robles vineyard for $16 million. We also made the decision to cease citrus farming operations on 600 acres of lemons in Arizona to focus on water monetization, which we anticipate will make this asset significantly more profitable. Our water monetization strategy is advancing on track, and we still expect a monetization event from our Colorado River water rights in fiscal year 2026.
We expect the second half of fiscal year 2026 to be our seasonally strongest period. Our third and fourth quarters should benefit from higher lemon volumes under the Sunkist agreement, increased avocado volumes as we strategically delayed harvest timing to capture expected better pricing, and continued operational efficiency. We expect to achieve positive adjusted EBITDA in the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2026. We are building a more focused, more efficient Limoneira, and we believe the full impact of that transformation will be increasingly visible in the quarters ahead,” concluded Mr. Edwards.
Fiscal Year 2026 Second Quarter Results
For the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, total net revenues were $23.9 million, compared to total net revenues of $35.1 million in the second quarter of the previous fiscal year. Agribusiness revenues were $22.5 million, compared to $33.6 million in the second quarter of last fiscal year. Other operations revenue was $1.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, compared to $1.5 million in the second quarter of last fiscal year. The year-over-year decrease in total net revenues was driven by the Company's strategic transition to Sunkist for lemon sales and marketing. This partnership resulted in a significant shift in the quarterly sales cadence for lemons compared to historical patterns. Under the new Sunkist structure, the first and second quarters are expected to have lower lemon sales volumes, while the third and fourth quarters are expected to have higher lemon sales volumes. Additionally, the Company exited its brokerage business and Chilean farming operations in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026 and its farm management business during fiscal year 2025, which further contributed to the year-over-year revenue decrease.
Agribusiness revenues in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026 include $17.1 million in fresh lemon carton sales, compared to $19.7 million of fresh lemon carton sales during the same period of fiscal year 2025. Approximately 1,028,000 cartons of fresh lemons were sold during the second quarter of fiscal year 2026 at a $16.63 average price per carton, compared to approximately 1,357,000 cartons sold at a $14.52 average price per carton during the second quarter of fiscal year 2025. The decrease in fresh carton volume was related to the shift in cadence as a result of the Sunkist agreement. Fresh lemon carton sales and per carton prices for the second quarter of fiscal year 2026 are net of the Sunkist marketing fee. Brokered lemons and other lemon sales were immaterial in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, compared to $2.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025. The decrease compared to the same period of fiscal year 2025 was primarily due to the sale of the Company’s Chilean farms in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026.
The Company recognized nominal avocado revenue in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, compared to $2.8 million of avocado revenue in the second quarter of last fiscal year due to the timing of harvest. Approximately 1,232,000 pounds were sold at a $2.26 average price per pound during the second quarter of fiscal year 2025.
The Company recognized nominal orange revenue in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, compared to $1.6 million in the same period of fiscal year 2025. The decrease was primarily related to the transition of the Company’s citrus brokerage operations to Sunkist.
The Company recognized nominal specialty citrus and wine grape revenues in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, compared to $0.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025. The decrease was related to the transition of the Company’s citrus brokerage operations to Sunkist.
Due to the termination of the Farm Management Agreement with PGIM Real Estate Finance, LLC effective March 31, 2025, there was no farm management revenue in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, compared to $0.3 million in the same period of fiscal year 2025.
Total costs and expenses in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026 were $45.6 million, compared to $38.5 million in the second quarter of last fiscal year. The increase was primarily due to a $9.3 million impairment of the Windfall Farms property assets and $7.8 million loss and expected loss on disposal of assets, primarily the lemon orchards in Yuma, Arizona, partially offset by a decrease in agribusiness costs, a $1.1 million increase in other operating income from insurance proceeds and a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses.
Operating loss for the second quarter of fiscal year 2026 was $21.7 million, compared to operating loss of $3.3 million in the second quarter of the previous fiscal year. The increase in operating loss was primarily due to decreased agribusiness revenues and net increased costs and expenses described above. Additionally, total other expense for fiscal year 2026 includes $5.1 million in net accumulated foreign exchange losses recognized on the Chilean farming entities recorded over approximately eight years since the entities were acquired.
In March 2026, the Company received aggregate insurance proceeds of $2.3 million related to an incident at its packinghouse. Of the total insurance proceeds received, $1.2 million was recognized as a reduction of agribusiness costs and $1.1 million was recognized in other operating income during the second quarter of fiscal year 2026.
Net loss applicable to common stock, after preferred dividends, for the second quarter of fiscal year 2026 was $21.4 million, compared to net loss applicable to common stock of $3.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2025. Net loss per diluted share for the second quarter of fiscal year 2026 was $1.20 compared to net loss per diluted share of $0.20 for the same period of fiscal year 2025. The increase in net loss reflects the same factors impacting total costs and expenses and operating loss noted above.
Adjusted net loss for diluted EPS in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026 was $5.2 million or $0.29 per diluted share, compared to the second quarter of fiscal year 2025 adjusted net loss for diluted EPS of $3.1 million or $0.17 per diluted share. A reconciliation of net loss attributable to Limoneira Company to adjusted net loss for diluted EPS is provided at the end of this release.
Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $1.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026, compared to a loss of $0.2 million in the same period of fiscal year 2025. A reconciliation of net loss attributable to Limoneira Company to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is provided at the end of this release.
Fiscal Year 2026 First Six Months Results
For the six months ended April 30, 2026, total net revenue was $42.1 million, compared to $69.4 million for the same period in fiscal year 2025. The decrease was primarily due to decreased agribusiness revenues from lemons, avocados, oranges and farm management.
Operating loss for the first six months of fiscal year 2026 was $32.2 million, compared to operating loss of $8.7 million in the same period last fiscal year. The increase in operating loss was primarily due to the second quarter factors described previously. Additionally, total other expense for the first six months of fiscal year 2026 includes $6.1 million in accumulated foreign exchange losses recognized on the Chilean farming entities.
Net loss applicable to common stock, after preferred dividends, was $31.0 million for the first six months of fiscal year 2026, compared to net loss of $6.7 million in the same period last fiscal year. Net loss per diluted share for the first six months of fiscal year 2026 was $1.74, compared to net loss per diluted share of $0.38 in the same period of fiscal year 2025. The increase in net loss reflects the same factors impacting operating loss and other total expense noted above.
For the first six months of fiscal year 2026, adjusted net loss for diluted EPS was $13.7 million compared to adjusted net loss for diluted EPS of $5.6 million for the same period in fiscal year 2025. In the first six months of fiscal year 2026, adjusted net loss per diluted share was $0.77 compared to adjusted net loss per diluted share of $0.32 for the same period in fiscal year 2025, based on approximately 17.9 million and 17.8 million, respectively, adjusted weighted average diluted common shares outstanding.
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
During the first six months of fiscal year 2026, net cash used in operating activities was $16.1 million, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $4.0 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year. For the first six months of fiscal year 2026, net cash used in investing activities was $3.5 million, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $6.5 million in the same period last fiscal year. Net cash provided by financing activities was $19.1 million for the first six months of fiscal year 2026, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $9.6 million in the same period of the prior fiscal year.
Long-term debt as of April 30, 2026, was $93.7 million, compared to $72.5 million at the end of fiscal year 2025. In April 2025, the Company received a cash distribution of $10.0 million of its share of a $20.0 million cash distribution from its 50%/50% real estate development joint venture, Harvest at Limoneira, with The Lewis Group of Companies. The distribution came from the joint venture’s available cash and cash equivalents, which as of April 30, 2026, totaled $19.3 million.
Land and Water Asset Monetization
In April 2024, Harvest at Limoneira closed on lot sales representing 554 residential units, thus completing the sell-out of Phase 2 of the development. In February 2026, Harvest at Limoneira celebrated the grand opening of five new neighborhoods in Phase 2 and home sales are underway.
In September 2025, Limoneira announced a plan to explore providing housing on the Limco Del Mar Ranch to address Ventura County’s housing needs. Limoneira believes that infill development, such as the Limco Del Mar project, offers the opportunity for efficient, balanced, and well-planned development that has the potential to stimulate economic growth, create jobs, and contribute to vibrant livable communities.
In April 2026, Limoneira completed the formation of a 50%/50% joint venture with California Wood Recycling, Inc. dba Agromin, California's largest organics waste recycler. The joint venture will develop a 70-acre commercial composting center on Limoneira’s property in Santa Paula, CA. Limoneira will lease the site to the joint venture for approximately $560,000 annually, with the lease including 89 acre-feet of annual water supply to the facility. The joint venture is expected to become operational in the second half of fiscal year 2027 and is projected to generate significant earnings, shared equally between Limoneira and Agromin.
In April 2026, one of Limoneira's subsidiaries, Windfall Investors, LLC, entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement to sell an 80% undivided tenant-in-common interest in the Company’s Windfall Farms property. The property is located in Paso Robles, California and consists of approximately 724 acres of land, including approximately 400 acres of wine grapes and related improvements and infrastructure. The aggregate purchase price is $16 million, consisting of $10 million in cash and a $6 million promissory note secured by a deed of trust. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2026.
In April 2026, Limoneira made the decision to cease citrus farming operations on the remaining 600 acres of lemons located at the Company’s Associated Citrus Packers property in Yuma, Arizona. The decision aligns with the Company’s strategic plan to monetize Class 3 Colorado River water rights by conserving water via crop substitution to low water use crops. Several reservoir and water management agreements that govern the management of the Colorado River are scheduled to expire at the end of 2026, and the Company believes there may be near-term opportunities for monetization of its water rights.
Fiscal Year 2026 Guidance and Longer-Term Outlook
The Company continues to expect fresh lemon volumes to be in the range of 4.0 million to 4.5 million cartons for fiscal year 2026.
The Company now expects avocado volumes to be in the range of 5.5 million to 6.5 million pounds for fiscal year 2026, compared to the prior expectation of 5.0 million to 6.0 million pounds.
The Company expects to receive total proceeds of approximately $180 million from Harvest, LLCB II, LLC and East Area II spread out over seven fiscal years, of which $10 million was received in fiscal year 2025 and $15 million was received in fiscal year 2024.

Fiscal Year 2024 Actual 2025 Actual 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030
Projected Distributions $15 $10 $5 $35 $41 $32 $42
The Company has 800 acres of non-bearing avocados estimated to become full bearing over the next two to four years, which the Company expects will enable strong organic growth in the coming years. Additionally, the Company plans to continue expanding its plantings of avocados over the next two fiscal years. The foregoing describes organic growth opportunities and does not include potential acquisition opportunities for the Company in its highly fragmented industry.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Due to significant depreciable assets associated with the nature of the Company’s operations and interest costs associated with the Company's capital structure, management believes that earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and adjusted EBITDA, which excludes stock-based compensation, impairment of assets, loss and expected loss on disposal of assets, net and foreign currency losses, are important measures to evaluate the Company's results of operations between periods on a more comparable basis. Beginning in fiscal year 2026, adjusted EBITDA excludes foreign currency losses, as management believes this is a better representation of cash generated by operations. Foreign currency losses were immaterial in fiscal year 2025 and, therefore, were not separately adjusted. Such measurements are not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and should not be construed as an alternative to reported results determined in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP information provided is unique to the Company and may not be consistent with methodologies used by other companies.
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are summarized and reconciled to net loss attributable to Limoneira Company, which management considers to be the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, as follows (in thousands):
