A table providing a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most comparable GAAP measure, as well as an explanation of, and important disclosures about, this non-GAAP measure, is included in the tables at the end of this press release.

Executive Summary

"Last year we focused on establishing a clear direction for the company and aligning the organization around it," said Matthew Walker, president and CEO of Tejon Ranch Company. "Our strategy is now beginning to gain traction in our operating performance. Our $49.6 million in revenues and $25.3 million in Adjusted EBITDA both improved over last year, reflecting the strength of our underlying businesses and the progress we're making in executing our strategy. While our reported net income this year includes approximately $3.4 million in one-time proxy defense costs, the underlying performance of the business improved, led by stronger profitability in commercial real estate and a significant year-over-year improvement in farming.

"The broader story is the continued activity across our operating platform, particularly at the Tejon Ranch Commerce Center. In December for example, leveraging the opening of the neighboring Hard Rock Tejon Casino, fuel and food revenue increased at TA Petro Travel Center, and the Outlets at Tejon generated its highest retail sales of any month ever. Those trends are continuing through the first quarter. Our 2025 results included two land transactions at TRCC, the sale of a hotel site and the back-end revenue recognition tied to the Nestlé land sale. We are also encouraged by our success beyond TRCC, where farming revenues in 2025, which was an on-bearing year, were the highest in ten years.

"We continue to set the table for future growth. Over the past year we've simplified our organization, reduced overhead and clarified where and how capital will be deployed. We are not done yet, but we are encouraged with the progress in strengthening our communication, governance and overall alignment with our shareholders. Last year included several non-recurring costs including our activism defense expenses, and adjusting for those our net income would show improvement over 2024. Our responsibility now is to put more of the Ranch to work, converting land into recurring cash flow. A significant step in that process is the advancement of Centennial, our master-planned community in Los Angeles County, which is about to enter a more public phase of its entitlement process addressing the court's identified issues.

"We recognize that investors will ultimately judge us by our results which means driving long term value through earnings growth and returns on invested capital."

Commercial/Industrial Real Estate Highlights

Leasing and occupancy updates as of December 31, 2025:

TRCC industrial portfolio, through the Company's joint venture partnerships, consists of 2.8 million square feet of gross leasable area (GLA) and is 100% leased.

TRCC commercial portfolio, wholly owned and through joint venture partnerships, consists of 620,907 square feet of GLA and is 98% leased.

In total, TRCC comprises 7.1 million square feet of GLA.

Outlets at Tejon maintained strong performance with 93% occupancy as of December 31, 2025.

Construction of Phase 1 of Terra Vista at Tejon, the Company's first multi-family residential development located at TRCC, has been completed. Phase 1 includes 228 of the planned 495 residential units, with leasing beginning in the second quarter of 2025 and the final units delivered in October 2025.

Construction of the more than 700,000-square-foot Nestlé USA distribution facility on the east side of TRCC has been completed. Nestlé is currently completing equipment installation and commissioning activities as it prepares the facility to become operational.

Farming Highlights

Farming segment revenues increased 34.6% to $18.7 million in 2025, driven by the return of pistachio production, an alternate bearing crop, which contributed $5.3 million in revenue which was absent from 2024's down-bearing year, underscoring the significant earnings impact of two-year pistachio cycle.

Almond revenues grew to $7.8 million in 2025 from $7.1 million in 2024, reflecting stronger pricing and continued maturation of the almond portfolio.

Wine grape revenues rose to $3.4 million from $2.7 million, highlighting broad-based improvement across all three permanent crop categories.

Farming segment operating loss narrowed sharply to ($0.1 million) in 2025 from ($3.6 million) in 2024, a $3.5 million improvement that brings the segment to near breakeven, signaling a meaningful inflection point as permanent crops mature and the full earnings power of the pistachio and almond portfolios comes into focus.

Mineral Resources Highlights

Mineral resources segment generated $2.8 million in operating income in 2025, supported by stable royalty streams across rock/aggregate and cement, and a higher blended oil & gas royalty rate of 14.6%, up from 13.4% in 2024, demonstrating improving royalty contract terms even as production volumes declined.

Rock and aggregate volumes and pricing both improved year-over-year to 1,494,000 tons sold (from 1,442,000) and the average price per ton increased from $1.40 to $1.46, reflecting continued construction demand and multi-year positive pricing momentum.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At December 31, 2025, total capital, including debt, was $584.5 million. The Company had total liquidity of approximately $91.0 million, consisting of cash and securities totaling approximately $24.9 million and $66.1 million available on its line of credit.

2026 Outlook:

The Company remains focused on TRCC as its primary development platform and long-term value driver, pursuing commercial and industrial development, multi-family development, leasing and investment activity, both directly and through joint ventures. The Company may also pursue selective land sales on an opportunistic basis and continues to advance its residential projects, including Mountain Village, Grapevine and Centennial at Tejon Ranch.

California remains a highly regulated environment for real estate development and delays, including litigation-related matters, can occur. As a result, the Company expects net income to fluctuate from year to year based on development activity, commodity prices, production within its farming and mineral resources segments, and the timing of land sales and leasing activity.

The Company expects its 2026 farming operations to reflect elevated production costs, including fuel, fertilizer, pest control and labor. Winter chill hours to date have been below historical averages, which may affect bloom timing and crop development. The Company's pistachio orchards are expected to be in a down-bearing year consistent with the crop's alternate bearing cycle. Final yields will depend on spring weather conditions, although tighter industry inventories may help support commodity pricing.

As part of its crop diversification strategy, the Company planted 150 acres of olives in 2025 and expects to plant an additional 150 acres in 2026.
