Annual Report (Form 10-K), fiscal year 1994

Item 1. Business.
Indian River Citrus Investors Limited Partnership (the "Registrant") was organized under the Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on December 24, 1984 for the purpose of owning and operating a commercial citrus grove located near Stuart, Martin County, Florida. The Registrant was initially capitalized with a contribution of $1,000 from Winthrop Agricultural Management II, Inc. (the "General Partner"), the general partner of the Partnership. The General Partner is a Massachusetts corporation wholly-owned by Winthrop Financial Associates, a Limited Partnership, a Maryland limited partnership ("WFA").
Until December 22, 1994, Arthur J. Halleran, Jr. was the sole general partner of Linnaeus Associates Limited Partnership ("Linnaeus") which is the sole general partner of WFA. On December 22, 1994, pursuant to an Investment Agreement entered into among Nomura Asset Capital Corporation ("NACC"), Mr. Halleran and certain other individuals who comprise the senior management of WFA, the general partnership interest in Linnaeus was transferred to W.L. Realty, L.P. ("W.L. Realty"). W.L. Realty is a Delaware limited partnership, the general partner of which is A.I. Realty Company, LLC ("Realtyco"). The equity securities of Realtyco are currently held by certain employees of NACC. Such securities are subject to a call option agreement pursuant to which NACC may, at any time, elect to purchase such securities for $1.00.
On January 9, 1985, the Registrant filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (SEC File No. 2-95219) (the "Registration Statement") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") with respect to a public offering of 25,000 units of limited partnership interest ("Units") in the Registrant which was amended by Amendment No. 3 thereto to reduce the size of the offering to 15,500 Units at a purchase price of $1,000 per Unit (as so amended, the "Registration Statement"). The Registration Statement was declared effective on December 16, 1985. The offering terminated on March 31, 1986, at which time 15,500 Units representing $15,500,000 of capital contributions from Limited Partners, had been subscribed for.
The Registrant's only business is owning and operating a commercial citrus grove consisting of approximately 3,150 acres of land and related improvements and equipment located near Stuart, Martin County, Florida (the "Grove" or "Property"). The Grove and the Registrant's financing arrangements therefor are described at pages 19-20 and 38-41 under the captions "The Grove" and "Acquisition of the Grove and Financing Arrangements," in the Registrant's Prospectus dated December 16, 1985 (the "Prospectus") contained in the Registration Statement, which description is incorporated herein by this reference. The Registrant's business is described at pages 22-36 of the Prospectus under the caption "Business", which description is incorporated herein by this reference.
On April 12, 1993, the Registrant borrowed $8 million from NationsBank of Florida (the "New Loan") for the purpose of refinancing the existing $8 million first mortgage loan encumbering the Grove. Interest only is payable at a variable rate equal to NationsBank's prime rate, less 1%. Principal is payable in full on the maturity date, January 31, 1996. The New Loan is nonrecourse and is secured by a first mortgage on the Grove and by guarantees given by the General Partner and by First Winthrop Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of WFA. The liability under the guarantees is limited to $2 million. See Note 7 of Notes to Financial Statements for additional information related to existing financing arrangements.

Item 5. Market for the Registrant's United Limited Partnership Interests and Related Security Holder Matters.
(a) Market Information. The Registrant is a partnership and thus has no common stock. There is no active market for the Units. Trading in the Units is sporadic and occurs solely through private transactions.
(b) Holders. As of March 1, 1995, there were 1,345 holders of record who owned the 15,500 outstanding Units.
(c) Dividends. All profits and losses of Registrant are allocated to the holders of Registrant's partnership interests. Distribution of cash are made in accordance with Registrant's partnership agreement. On May 15, 1990, cash distributions totalling $1,665,389 or $96.70 per $1,000 Unit, were made. On August 14, 1991, cash distributions totalling $391,414 or $25.00 per $1,000 Unit were made. There were no distributions made in 1992, 1993, and 1994.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data.
Item 7.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The Registrant has completed its ninth full year of citrus operations at the Grove. Citrus production at the Grove is estimated to be approximately 733,000 boxes for the 1994-1995 crop year, an 11% increase from the 660,000 boxes produced in the 1993-1994 crop year, and a 5.5% increase from the 1992-1993 production level of 695,000.
Orange production for the State of Florida is expected to increase from 176 million boxes (for the 1993-1994 crop year) to 203 million boxes (for the 1994-1995 crop year).
Strong production levels in Florida and Brazil since the 1991-1992 crop have kept market prices paid to grower for oranges in the range of $.80 to $1.00 per pound solid;
accordingly the prices received by the Grove are principally determined by the floor price levels set forth in the Grove's long-term fruit sales contracts.
Results of Operations
The 4,524,800 pound-solid yield for the 1993-1994 season represents a 7% decrease over the 1992-1993 season yield of 4,862,800 pounds solid and a 2% increase over the 1991- 1992 season yield of 4,423,000 pounds solid. "Pound solid yield" is the residual sugar content of the fruit, and is the mechanism by which price and revenue are derived. Average price per pound solid of $1.01 received for the 1993-1994 season fruit increased by $.01 and decreased by $.24 compared to the 1992-1993 and 1991-1992 average season prices of $1.00 and $1.25 per pound solid, respectively.
Seasonal revenues are not comparable to calendar year revenue due to the nature of the Grove's business insofar as the harvesting of a single season's crop is not completed within a single calendar year and due to the timing differences of final settlements. Fruit sales for the year ended December 31, 1994 declined by $169,665 or 3% compared to the same period in 1993 and fruit sales declined by $550,941 or 10% compared to the fiscal year ended December 31, 1992. The decrease in the comparisons of calendar year revenues with season revenues is attributable to pricing differences, size of crop and the timing of harvesting. Specifically, approximately 20% of the crop which bloomed in 1992 was picked by the corresponding year-end. The comparable figure for 1993 and 1994 was 36% and 23%, respectively. The decrease in 1993 revenues (compared to 1992) was caused by the decrease in the price per pound solid received for the 1992-1993 crop and the smaller 1993-1994 crop. The decrease in the 1994 revenues (compared to 1993) is principally due to the timing of harvesting the 1994-1995 fruit crop.
Harvesting expenses of $1,283,069 for the year ended December 31, 1994 decreased by $125,991 compared to $1,409,060 for the same period in 1993, and decreased by $245 compared to $1,283,314 for the year ended December 31, 1992. During 1994, 1993 and 1992 boxes harvested were 657,830, 743,820 and 674,973, respectively, so that havesting costs were $1.95, $1.89 and $1.90 per box, respectively.
Cost of fruit sales decreased by 13% or $342,633 compared to 1993 and increased 1% or $14,286 compared to 1992. Cost of sales consists of (1) a portion of the inventoriable horticultural care and depreciation costs for the current calendar year, which is not allocated to inventory (fruit remaining on trees) for the current calendar year and (2) the portion of such inventoriable costs which was allocated to inventory for the prior year. The total prediction expenditures for a calendar year generally fluctuate only for changes in required horticultural care; accordingly, cost of goods sold is heavily influenced by the portions of current and prior year crops picked during a given reporting period. This accounts for the majority of the decrease in the 1994 costs of goods sold.
Interest expense in 1994 decreased by $286,150 as compared to 1993 as a result of the reduction of the interest rate.
Grove management fees for the years ended 1994, 1993, and 1992 were $201,837, $213,685 and 344,436 respectively. The fees are made up of a base management fee and an incentive management fee of a specified percentage of available cash flow, as defined. The decrease in management fees for 1994 compared to either 1993 or 1992 is the result of the execution of a new management fee arrangement.
Real estate taxes for 1994 and 1993, and 1992 were $56,071, $133,950 and $148,390 respectively. The 1994 decrease is the result of a change in the methods and rates of assessing the value of the property. Real estate taxes for citrus groves are being calculated based upon a state wide averaging formula that pools values and yields across the state.
Financial Condition
Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 1994 increased by $648,947 or 26% compared to $2,475,681 at December 31, 1993. This increase is a result of the increase in accrued interest expense, which is determined by contractual provision.
Accounts receivable at December 31, 1994 of $99,102 decreased by $198,544 compared to the December 31, 1993 balance of $297,646. Accounts receivable consist of the fruit harvested as of December 31st for which the revenue will not be received until after January 1st.
Inventory (fruit remaining on trees) at December 31, 1994, increased $202,559 as compared to December 31, 1993. Inventory includes a portion of the inventoriable horticultural care and depreciation costs for the calendar year. The other portion of such costs is allocated to cost of sales for fruit harvested in the same year but which were not included in inventory the prior year. The increase in inventory is principally due to the slower pace of the harvesting of the 1994-1995 fruit.
The Purchase Money Mortgage specifies an annual payment of the lesser of $1,000,000 or 100% available cash flow as defined. Any accrued but unpaid interest for the year is added to the principal balance. Accordingly, the long-term notes payable increased by $551,221 at December 31, 1994 compared to December 31, 1993.

INDIAN RIVER CITRUS INVESTORS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992
1. ORGANIZATION AND ACQUISITION
Indian River Citrus Investors Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") was organized in December 1984 under the Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to acquire from Caulkins Citrus Company, Limited approximately 3,150 gross acres of land located in Martin County, Florida, and to operate a commercial citrus grove (the "Grove") for the production of oranges. The Partnership will terminate on December 31, 2010, or sooner, in accordance with the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement (the "Agreement"), as amended November 13, 1985.
In accordance with the Agreement, as amended, net income or net losses, tax credits and net cash flow, as defined, are generally allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner for the period ended December 31, 1985, and 90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partner, thereafter. Gains, losses and proceeds from capital transactions are generally allocated 70% to the Limited Partners and 30% to the General Partner. These allocations are subject to certain priority returns to the Limited Partners, as defined in the Agreement.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Fruit Sales - Fruit sales are recognized when fruit is delivered to processsors. Sales are comprised of advances received for fruit delivered the fruit season and the receipt of any final settlements, 90% of which are received by December 31 of the year in which harvesting is completed.
Inventory - Inventory consists of fruit remaining on the trees at December 31, 1994 and 1993. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market. Inventory cost includes caretaking costs and inventoriable depreciation at December 31, 1994 and 1993, which are both allocated between fruit harvested and fruit remaining on the trees. Market value was determined by utilizing crop estimates, specified minimum contract prices, and quoted market prices reported by the Florida Citrus Processor's Association.
Property - The Partnership provides for deprecation on the grove and improvements, the building and the trucks using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of 30 years, 10 years and 5 years, respectively. Depreciation expense of $9,473 was recognized on the building during each of the three years ended December 31, 1994. Depreciation of the grove and improvements and trucks is included in inventory and ultimately charged to cost of fruit sales as the fruit is harvested and sold. Depreciation of 664,189 and $634,568 was included in inventory for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged to expense as incurred while major renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Income Taxes - Since the Partnership is not a taxable entity, the revenues and expenses flow through to the partners for tax purposes. The tax returns and the amount of distributable Partnership income or loss are subject to examination by the federal and state taxing authorities. If such examinations result in changes to distributable partnership income or loss, the tax liability of the partners would be changed accordingly.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements.
Cash Equivalents - The Partnership considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The majority of cash and cash equivalents are in excess of federal deposit insurance coverage at December 31, 1994 and 1993.

3. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Accounts receivable consist of amounts due for fruit harvested and are carried at net realizable value. Net realizable value was calculated based on the fruit delivered utilizing spot and contract market prices published by the Florida Citrus Processor's Association per the terms of the fruit purchase agreements. As of December 31, 1994 and 1993, there was no provision for doubtful accounts.
4. PROPERTY
At December 31, property consists of the following:
5. DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS
Deferred financing costs consist of costs associated with obtaining financing and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the related debt. As a result of the refinancing further discussed in Note 7, deferred mortgage costs totalling $198,507 along with associated accumulated amortization of $143,919 were written off when the related mortgage was paid down. Costs of $90,932 related to obtaining the new financing were capitalized in 1993 and will be amortized over the life of the new mortgage. Deferred financing costs at December 31, 1994 and 1993 are net of accumulated amortization of $178,682 and $133,018, respectively. Amortization of deferred financing costs of $45,665, $96,690 and $33,547 has been recognized in the accompanying financial statements for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 respectively.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements.

7. NOTES PAYABLE (Continued)
The discount on the purchase money second mortgage note was calculated based on the projected principal balance assuming payments based on the Partnership's projected cash flow, as defined. To the extent actual payments differ from those projected, the calculation of the discount will be adjusted in future years.
The discount is being amortized using the effective interest rate method. The borrower's incremental borrowing rate used to discount the projected note payments was that assumed for similar debt as of the date of issuance (i.e. 14.5%).
During April 1993, the Partnership completed a refinancing of a $8,000,000 first mortgage note.
8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The General Partner receives an annual management fee of $200,000. Accordingly, partnership management fees of $200,000 were expensed for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994.
First Winthrop Corporation ("First Winthrop") receives $100,000 each year, adjusted by the annual consumer price index, for accounting, clerical and administrative services provided to the Partnership. During the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, such fees in the amount of $136,140, $134,204, and $130,947, respectively, were expensed.
9. MANAGEMENT FEES
As of April 1, 1993, the Partnership entered into a property management agreement with AgriManagement for a fixed fee of $148,400 plus two incentive fees described as Incentive Fee A and Incentive Fee B. Incentive Fee A is 2.5% of Net Cash flow from Operations. Incentive Fee B is 15% of net cash flow from operations (as defined) less the sum of $1,800,000, base fees, accounting services and Incentive Fee B.
Prior to April 1, 1993, the Grove was managed under a Grove Management Agreement with a grove manager in which an affiliate of the General Partner has a noncontrolling beneficial interest.
The agreement which terminated March 31, 1993 called for an annual base management fee of $180,000 payable in equal monthly installments and an incentive management fee calculated for the first quarter of 1993 and 1992 at 7.5% of the Partnership's cash flow from operations, respectively, as defined. Payment of the calendar year incentive management fee for each year was payable on April 1 of the following year. Grove Management fees expensed under that agreement were $74,930 for the year ended December 31, 1993.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements.
Grove management fees of $201,837, $213,685 and $344,436 were expensed for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

10. SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS
The Partnership sells most of its fruit under two fruit sales agreements with citrus processing plants. Under the terms of the first agreement, the Partnership was obligated to deliver and sell to this processing plant at least 80% of the Grove's harvested fruit for the 1987 through 1991 harvests and 10% of the Grove's harvested fruit thereafter through the 1994-1995 harvest.
