Rhizome Partners made the following comment about FRP Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:FRPH) in its Q3 2022 investor letter:

FRP Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:FRPH) continues to post impressive results. Rents increased by 7.3% and 4.6% on lease renewals at Dock 79 and The Maren, respectively. The Cranberry Run warehouse is now 100% leased. The aggregate business experienced the highest quarterly revenue in company history, largely due to the recent acquisition in Astatula, FL. Of the 487 multi-family units at Bryant Street, 85% were leased at the end of Q2. Preleasing has begun at The Verge, the new multi-family near Dock 79, and The Maren. FRP Holdings received $16.9 million of the $18.5 million of the capital lent to the Amber Ridge project. The company has bought $140 million of short-term Treasuries, which may add $4-6 million of additional interest income per year. FRP Holdings’ large cash balance has quickly shifted from being a heavy anchor dragging down returns to an opportunistic distress fund that could earn outsized returns in the coming years. In a year when we have a lot to worry about, FRP Holdings is the company we worry about the least.”
