STRATUS PROPERTIES INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.GENERAL
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States (U.S.) and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022, included in Stratus Properties Inc.’s (Stratus) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (Stratus 2022 Form 10-K) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2023. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods reported and consist of normal recurring adjustments. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for any other future interim period or for a full fiscal year. Refer to Note 4 for a discussion of Stratus' discontinued operations.

Related Party Transactions. Through the first quarter of 2022, Stratus had an arrangement with Whitefish Partners, LLC (Whitefish Partners), formerly known as Austin Retail Partners, LLC, for services provided by a consultant of Whitefish Partners who is the son of Stratus' President and Chief Executive Officer. Payments to Whitefish Partners for the consultant’s consulting services and expense reimbursements totaled $185 thousand for first-quarter 2022, which included $20 thousand as an annual incentive award for 2021 and a $135 thousand cash payment under Stratus’ Profit Participation Incentive Plan (PPIP). In April 2022, Stratus hired the consultant as an employee at an annual salary of $100 thousand. As an employee, he is eligible for the same health and retirement benefits provided to all Stratus employees and is also eligible for annual incentive awards and for awards under the PPIP and the Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP). In first-quarter 2023, he received $22 thousand as an annual incentive award for 2022, and his annual salary was increased to $120 thousand. As of September 30, 2023, the employee has two outstanding awards under the PPIP. The liability associated with these awards at September 30, 2023 is nominal in amount relative to the consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 7 for discussion of the PPIP and LTIP.

3.    LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
Stratus has entered into strategic partnerships for certain development projects. Stratus, through its subsidiaries, is a partner in the following limited partnerships: The Saint George Apartments, L.P. (10.0 percent indirect equity interest), Stratus Block 150, L.P. (31.0 percent indirect equity interest), The Saint June, L.P. (34.13 percent indirect equity interest), Holden Hills, L.P. (50.0 percent indirect equity interest) and Stratus Kingwood Place, L.P. (60.0 percent indirect equity interest). For additional information regarding Stratus' partnerships, refer to Notes 2 and 4 in the Stratus 2022 Form 10-K.

Holden Hills, L.P. In first-quarter 2023, Holden Hills, L.P. (the Holden Hills partnership), a Texas limited partnership and subsidiary of Stratus, was formed for the development of Holden Hills, Stratus’ final large residential development within the Barton Creek community in Austin, Texas, consisting of 495 acres and designed to feature 475 unique residences (Holden Hills Project). The Holden Hills partnership is governed by a limited partnership agreement between a wholly owned subsidiary of Stratus as Class A limited partner and an unaffiliated equity investor as Class B limited partner, and another wholly owned subsidiary of Stratus which serves as general partner. The partners made the following initial capital contributions to the Holden Hills partnership: (i) Stratus contributed the Holden Hills land and related personal property at an agreed value of $70.0 million and (ii) The Class B limited partner contributed $40.0 million in cash. Immediately following the Class B limited partner's initial capital contribution, $30.0 million of cash was distributed by the Holden Hills partnership to Stratus. Further, the Holden Hills partnership reimbursed Stratus for certain initial project costs and closing costs of approximately $5.8 million.
8

As a result of these transactions, Stratus holds, indirectly through its wholly owned subsidiaries, a 50.0 percent equity interest in the Holden Hills partnership, and the Class B limited partner holds the remaining 50.0 percent equity interest in the Holden Hills partnership. Stratus’ potential returns on its equity investment in the Holden Hills partnership may increase above its relative equity interest as negotiated return hurdles are achieved. Refer to “Potential Returns” below for further discussion. Stratus consolidates the Holden Hills partnership; therefore, its contribution of the Holden Hills land and related personal property was recorded at historical cost and the contribution from the Class B limited partner was accounted for as a noncontrolling interest in subsidiary.

In addition to each partner’s initial capital contribution, upon the call of the general partner from time to time, Stratus is obligated to make capital contributions up to an additional $10.0 million, and the Class B limited partner is also obligated to make capital contributions up to an additional $10.0 million.

Stratus has the authority to manage the day-to-day operations of the Holden Hills partnership, subject to approval rights of the Class B limited partner for specified “major decisions,” including project and operating budgets, the business plan and amendments thereto; sales, leases or transfers of any portion of the Holden Hills Project to any partner, affiliate of any partner, or to any unaffiliated third party other than as contemplated in the business plan; incurring any debt, mortgage or guaranty; capital calls in excess of those previously agreed upon; admitting a new partner; and certain transfers of direct or indirect interests in the Holden Hills partnership. The business plan includes rights of first refusal in favor of the Class B limited partner for sale of luxury residence sites to be developed in distinct communities or “pods” to a third party. A “deadlock” may be declared by any partner if any limited partner does not approve any two major decisions proposed by the general partner within any 12-month period. Prior to the third anniversary of the effective date of the limited partnership agreement, a buy-sell provision can be triggered only if there is a deadlock. On or after the third anniversary, any partner can initiate a buy-sell at any time by written notice to the other partner, specifying the buyout price.

Stratus has entered into a development agreement with the Holden Hills partnership pursuant to which the Holden Hills partnership will construct certain street, drainage, water, sidewalk, electric and gas improvements in order to extend the Tecoma Circle roadway on Section N land owned by Stratus from its current terminus to Southwest Parkway, estimated to cost approximately $14.7 million (the Tecoma Improvements), and Stratus will reimburse the partnership for 60 percent of the costs. The Tecoma Improvements will enable access and provide utilities necessary for the development of both Holden Hills and Section N. As of September 30, 2023, Stratus had $9.2 million remaining to complete the Tecoma Improvements.

The Holden Hills partnership has agreed to pay Stratus a development management fee of 4.00 percent of certain construction costs for Phase I of the project, and an asset management fee of $150 thousand per year starting 15 months after construction starts on the project payable from available cash flow after debt service.

In first-quarter 2023, the Holden Hills partnership entered into a loan agreement with Comerica Bank to finance the development of Phase I of the project. Refer to Note 6 for discussion of the loan agreement.

Operating Loans to Partnerships. In April 2023, Stratus made an operating loan of $1.5 million to Stratus Block 150, L.P. to facilitate the partnership’s ability to pay ongoing costs of The Annie B project during the pre-construction period. In August 2023, Stratus made an additional advance of $800 thousand under the operating loan to Stratus Block 150, L.P. The loan bears interest at the one-month Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index (BSBY) Rate plus 5.00 percent, is subordinate to The Annie B land loan and must be repaid before distributions may be made to the partners.

In June 2023, Stratus made an operating loan of $750 thousand to The Saint June, L.P. to support the partnership’s ability to pay its construction loan interest, which has risen above the amount originally budgeted due to rising interest rates. In October 2023, Stratus made an additional advance of $250 thousand under the operating loan to The Saint June, L.P., and the Class B Limited Partner made a $250 thousand operating loan to The Saint June, L.P. The loans bear interest at the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus 5.00 percent, is subordinate to The Saint June construction loan and must be repaid before distributions may be made to the partners.

Stratus has performed evaluations and concluded that The Saint George Apartments, L.P., Stratus Block 150, L.P., The Saint June, L.P., Stratus Kingwood Place, L.P. and Holden Hills, L.P. are variable interest entities and that Stratus is the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, the partnerships’ results are consolidated in Stratus’ financial statements. Stratus will continue to re-evaluate which entity is the primary beneficiary of these partnerships in accordance with applicable accounting guidance.

The cash and cash equivalents held at these limited partnerships are subject to restrictions on distribution to the parent company pursuant to the individual partnership loan agreements.

4.    ASSET SALES
Block 21 - Discontinued Operations. Block 21 was Stratus’ wholly owned mixed-use real estate property in downtown Austin, Texas containing the 251-room W Austin Hotel and Austin City Limits Live at the Moody Theater, a 2,750-seat entertainment venue, Class A office space, retail space and the 3TEN ACL Live entertainment venue. On May 31, 2022, Stratus completed the previously announced sale of Block 21 to Ryman Hospitality Properties, Inc. (Ryman) for $260.0 million, subject to certain purchase price adjustments, and including Ryman’s assumption of $136.2 million of existing mortgage debt, with the remainder paid in cash. A portion of the proceeds, $6.9 million, was escrowed and held in restricted cash at December 31, 2022. These proceeds were released from restriction in June 2023 and disbursed in full to Stratus and reclassified to the operating account. Stratus recorded a pre-tax gain on the sale of $119.7 million in second-quarter 2022.

In accordance with accounting guidance, Stratus reported the results of operations of Block 21 as discontinued operations in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for second-quarter 2022 and the first nine months of 2022 because the disposal represents a strategic shift that had a major effect on operations. Block 21 did not have any other comprehensive income and Stratus' consolidated statements of cash flows are reported on a combined basis without separately presenting discontinued operations.

Capital expenditures associated with discontinued operations totaled $213 thousand the first nine months of 2022.

The Oaks at Lakeway. In 2017, Stratus sold The Oaks at Lakeway to FHF I Oaks at Lakeway, LLC for $114.0 million in cash. The Oaks at Lakeway is an H-E-B, L.P.-anchored retail project located in Lakeway, Texas. The parties entered into three master lease agreements at closing: (1) one covering unleased in-line retail space, with a 5-year term (the In-line Master Lease), (2) one covering the hotel pad with a 99-year term (the Hotel Master Lease) and (3) one covering four unleased pad sites, three of which have 10-year terms, and one of which has a 15-year term (the Pad Site Master Lease).

The In-Line Master Lease expired in February 2022 and the Hotel Master Lease was terminated in November 2020. As such, Stratus has no further obligations under these two master leases. With respect to the Pad Site Master Lease, Stratus has leased the one pad site with a 15-year term, reducing the monthly rent payment net of rent collections for this pad site to approximately $2,500. Stratus may assign this lease to the purchaser and terminate the obligation under the Pad Site Master Lease for this pad site with a payment of $560 thousand to the purchaser. The lease for the remaining three unleased pad sites under the Pad Site Master Lease expires in February 2027. To the extent leases are executed for the remaining three unleased pad sites, tenants open for business, and the leases are then assigned to the purchaser, the master lease obligation could be reduced further.

In first-quarter 2022, Stratus reassessed its plans with respect to construction of the remaining buildings on the three remaining unleased pad sites and determined that, rather than execute leases and build the buildings, it is less costly to continue to pay the monthly rent (approximately $73 thousand per month) pursuant to the Pad Site Master Lease until the lease expires in February 2027. In connection with this determination, Stratus reversed an accrual of costs to lease and construct these buildings, resulting in recognition of an additional $4.8 million of pre-tax gain in first-quarter 2022. A contract liability is presented as a deferred gain in the consolidated balance sheets in the amount of $2.9 million at September 30, 2023 and $3.5 million at December 31, 2022. The reduction in the deferred gain balance primarily reflects Pad Site Master Lease payments. The remaining deferred gain balance is expected to be reduced primarily by future Pad Site Master Lease payments.

12

Kingwood Place Land. In fourth-quarter 2022, Stratus sold a multi-family tract of land at Kingwood Place for $5.5 million. In third-quarter 2022, Stratus recorded a $70 thousand impairment charge due to selling costs in excess of the previous estimate.

Amarra Villas. In third-quarter 2022, Stratus recorded a $650 thousand impairment charge related to one of the Amarra Villas homes that was sold in first-quarter 2023 for $2.5 million. The charge was due to estimated total project costs and costs of sale for the home under construction that exceeded its contractual sale price.

5.    FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value accounting guidance includes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 inputs) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).

The carrying value for certain Stratus financial instruments (i.e., cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities) approximates fair value because of their short-term nature and generally negligible credit losses.

The fair value of Stratus’ debt also approximates fair value, as the interest rates are variable and approximate prevailing market interest rates available for similar mortgage debt. Stratus' debt is recorded at cost and is not actively traded. Fair value is estimated based on discounted future expected cash flows at estimated current market interest rates available for similar mortgage debt. Accordingly, Stratus' debt is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of debt does not represent the amounts that will ultimately be paid upon the maturities of the loans.

Comerica Bank revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2023, Status had $40.5 million available under the Comerica Bank revolving credit facility net of letters of credit totaling $13.3 million, $11.0 million of which was issued to secure Stratus’ obligation to build certain roads and utilities facilities benefiting Holden Hills and Section N. In March 2023, Stratus entered into a modification of the revolving credit facility, which extended the maturity date of the revolving credit facility to March 27, 2025, and increased the floor of the one-month BSBY Rate. As amended, advances under the revolving credit facility bear interest at the one-month BSBY Rate (with a floor of 0.50 percent) plus 4.00 percent. In May 2023, Stratus entered into a modification of the revolving credit facility to increase the maximum amount of letters of credit that may be issued under the revolving credit facility from $11.5 million to $13.3 million. In July 2023, Stratus entered into a $2.3 million letter of credit to secure its obligations, which are
13

subject to certain conditions, to construct and pay for certain utility infrastructure in Lakeway, Texas, estimated to cost approximately $2.3 million.

Jones Crossing loan. The Jones Crossing loan requires the Jones Crossing project to meet a debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) test of 1.15 to 1.00 measured quarterly and, starting June 30, 2023, on a rolling 12 month basis. If the DSCR falls below 1.15 to 1.00, it is not an event of default, but a “Cash Sweep Period” (as defined in the Jones Crossing loan) results, which limits Stratus’ ability to receive cash from its Jones Crossing subsidiary, unless a principal payment is made on the loan to restore the DSCR to the required threshold. The DSCR fell below 1.15 to 1.00 in each of fourth-quarter 2022 and first-quarter 2023, and the Jones Crossing subsidiary made principal payments of $231 thousand and $1.7 million in February 2023 and May 2023, respectively, to bring the DSCR back above 1.15 to 1.00 and a Cash Sweep Period did not occur. As permitted under the Jones Crossing loan agreement, in August 2023 the Jones Crossing subsidiary separated the ground lease for the multi-family parcel (the Multi-Family Phase) from the primary ground lease, and the Multi-Family Phase was released from the loan collateral. In October 2023, the Jones Crossing loan was modified effective August 1, 2023 to remove the Multi-Family Phase from certain defined terms and to revise the DSCR calculation to exclude the Multi-Family Phase from expenses on a retroactive basis beginning in second-quarter 2023. Accordingly, the DSCR met the threshold in second-quarter and third-quarter 2023.

The Annie B land loan. In February 2023, Stratus Block 150, L.P. entered into a modification agreement that extended the maturity date of The Annie B land loan to March 1, 2024, and changed the interest rate to the one-month BSBY Rate (with a floor of 0.50 percent) plus 3.00 percent. In connection with the modification agreement, Stratus Block 150, LP, escrowed an interest reserve of $0.6 million with the lender.

New Caney land loan. In March 2023, the New Caney land loan was repaid.

Kingwood Place construction loan. The Kingwood Place construction loan currently matures on December 6, 2023. Stratus Kingwood Place, L.P. exercised its option to extend the maturity date for one additional 12-month period, which the lender has approved. Stratus Kingwood Place, L.P. is working with the lender to document the extension and modification of the loan agreement.

The Saint June construction loan. In January 2023, The Saint June construction loan was amended to change the interest rate for the loan to SOFR with a floor of 0.75 percent plus 2.85 percent, subject to an overall 3.50 percent floor.

Amarra Villas revolving credit facility. In March 2023, Stratus made a $2.2 million principal payment on the Amarra Villas revolving credit facility upon the closing of a sale of one of the Amarra Villas homes.

Magnolia Place construction loan. In May 2023, the Magnolia Place construction loan was amended to change the interest rate for the loan to Term SOFR with a floor of 0.00 percent plus 3.36 percent, subject to an overall 3.50 percent floor.

Holden Hills construction loan. In February 2023, the Holden Hills partnership entered into a loan agreement with Comerica Bank to finance the development of Phase I of the Holden Hills Project.

The loan agreement provides for a senior secured construction loan in the aggregate principal amount of the least of (i) $26.1 million, (ii) 23 percent of the total development costs for Phase I or (iii) the amount that would result in a maximum loan-to-value ratio of 28 percent. The loan has a maturity date of February 8, 2026. Advances under the loan bear interest at the one-month BSBY Rate (with a floor of 0.50 percent), plus 3.00 percent. Payments of interest only on the loan are due monthly until the maturity date with the outstanding principal due at maturity. The Holden Hills partnership may prepay all or any portion of the loan without premium or penalty. Amounts repaid under the loan may not be reborrowed.

The loan is secured by the Holden Hills Project, including the land related to both Phase I and Phase II, and the Phase I improvements. After completion of construction of Phase I, the Holden Hills partnership may sell and obtain releases of the liens on single-family platted home sites, individual pods or the Phase II land, subject to specified conditions, and upon payment to the lender of specified amounts related to the parcel to be released. The Holden Hills partnership is not permitted to make distributions to its partners, including Stratus, while the loan is
14

outstanding. The Holden Hills partnership must apply all Municipal Utility District (MUD) reimbursements it receives and is entitled to retain as payments of principal on the loan.

Stratus entered into a guaranty for the benefit of the lender pursuant to which Stratus guaranteed the payment of the loan and the completion of Phase I, including the Tecoma Improvements (which benefit both the Holden Hills Project and Section N). Stratus is also liable for customary carve-out obligations and an environmental indemnity. Stratus must maintain, on a consolidated basis, a net asset value not less than $125.0 million, and a debt-to-gross-asset value not more than 50 percent (in each case as defined in the guaranty).

For additional information regarding Stratus' debt, refer to Note 6 in the Stratus 2022 Form 10-K.

Interest Expense and Capitalization. Interest costs (before capitalized interest) totaled $3.4 million in third-quarter 2023, $1.8 million in third-quarter 2022, $8.7 million for the first nine months of 2023 and $4.4 million for the first nine months of 2022. Substantially all of these interest costs were capitalized for all periods presented. Capitalized interest is primarily related to development activities at Barton Creek (primarily Holden Hills, Section N and The Saint June), The Saint George and The Annie B for all periods presented.

Equity. The Comerica Bank revolving credit facility, Amarra Villas revolving credit facility, The Annie B land loan, The Saint George construction loan, Kingwood Place construction loan and Holden Hills construction loan require Comerica Bank’s prior written consent for any common stock repurchases in excess of $1.0 million or any dividend payments. On September 1, 2022, after receiving written consent from Comerica Bank, Stratus’ Board of Directors (Board) declared a special cash dividend of $4.67 per share (totaling $40.0 million) on Stratus’ common stock, which was paid on September 29, 2022 to shareholders of record as of September 19, 2022. Accrued liabilities included $0.6 million as of September 30, 2023, and $1.3 million as of December 31, 2022, representing dividends accrued for unvested RSUs in accordance with the terms of the awards. The accrued dividends are paid to the holders of the RSUs as the RSUs vest.

In 2022, with written consent from Comerica Bank, Stratus’ Board also approved a share repurchase program, which authorized repurchases of up to $10.0 million of Stratus’ common stock. During the first nine months of 2023, Stratus acquired 91,919 shares of its common stock under the share repurchase program for a total cost of $2.1 million at an average price of $22.43 per share. In October 2023, Stratus completed the share repurchase program. In total, under the completed share repurchase program Stratus acquired 389,378 shares of its common stock for a total cost of $10.0 million at an average price of $25.68 per share.

In November 2023, with written consent from Comerica Bank, Stratus’ Board approved a new share repurchase program, which authorizes repurchases of up to $5.0 million of Stratus’ common stock. The repurchase program authorizes Stratus, in management’s and the Capital Committee of the Board’s discretion, to repurchase shares from time to time, subject to market conditions and other factors.

7.    PROFIT PARTICIPATION INCENTIVE PLAN AND LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
In July 2018, the Compensation Committee adopted the PPIP. In February 2023, the Committee approved the LTIP, which amends and restates the PPIP, and is effective for participation interests awarded under development projects on or after its effective date. Outstanding participation interests granted under the PPIP will continue to be governed by the terms of the prior PPIP. The PPIP and LTIP provide participants with economic incentives tied to the success of the development projects designated by the Committee as approved projects under the PPIP and LTIP. Estimates related to the awards may change over time as a result of differences between projected and actual development progress and costs, market conditions and the timing of capital transactions or valuation events. Refer to Notes 1 and 8 of the Stratus 2022 Form 10-K for further discussion.

The sale of The Saint Mary in January 2021 was a capital transaction under the PPIP. During February 2022, $2.1 million was paid in cash to eligible participants.

In September 2021, Lantana Place reached a valuation event under the PPIP. The profit pool was $3.9 million, of which $0.2 million was paid in cash during February 2022 and the remaining $3.7 million was settled in RSUs with a three-year vesting period awarded to eligible participants during second-quarter 2022 following stockholder approval of Stratus’ new stock incentive plan.

The sale of The Santal in December 2021 was a capital transaction under the PPIP. The profit pool was $6.7 million, of which $5.0 million was paid in cash to eligible participants during February 2022. The PPIP contains limits on
15

cash compensation paid to certain officers and amounts due above the limits are converted to an equivalent number of RSUs with a one-year vesting period. Of the remaining amount, $1.6 million was settled in RSUs awarded to one participant during second-quarter 2022 following stockholder approval of Stratus’ new stock incentive plan.

During first-quarter 2022, the Compensation Committee designated The Saint June as an approved project under the PPIP, and awards of participation interests were granted in August 2022.

In July 2023, Kingwood Place reached a valuation event under the PPIP and Stratus obtained an appraisal of the property to determine the payout under the PPIP. The accrued liability under the PPIP related to Kingwood Place was reduced to $1.5 million at September 30, 2023, and is expected to be settled in RSUs with a three-year vesting period awarded to eligible participants in the first quarter of 2024.

In August 2023, the Compensation Committee designated The Saint George as an approved project under the LTIP and granted awards of participation interests to participants.

Under the terms of the PPIP and LTIP, the number of RSUs granted in connection with settlement of approved projects is determined by reference to the 12-month trailing average stock price for the year the project reaches a payment event, whereas the grant date fair value of the RSUs for accounting purposes is based on the grant date closing price. For the RSUs awarded in connection with Lantana Place and The Santal, the aggregate grant date value was $2.1 million greater than the accrued liability for the two projects as a result of this different valuation methodology. During second-quarter 2022, Stratus transferred the $5.3 million accrued liability balance under the PPIP for Lantana Place and The Santal that was settled in RSUs to capital in excess of par value and is amortizing the $2.1 million excess of the grant-date value over the former accrued liability with a charge to general and administrative expenses and a credit to capital in excess of par value over the three-year or one-year vesting periods of the related RSUs.

The accrued liability for the PPIP totaled $3.3 million at September 30, 2023, and $3.0 million at December 31, 2022 (included in other liabilities).

8.    INCOME TAXES
Stratus’ accounting policy for and other information regarding its income taxes are further described in Notes 1 and 7 in the Stratus 2022 Form 10-K.

Stratus has a full valuation allowance against its U.S. Federal net deferred tax assets as of both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Stratus has recorded a deferred tax asset totaling $38 thousand at both September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 related to state income taxes.

In evaluating the recoverability of the remaining deferred tax assets, management considered available positive and negative evidence, giving greater weight to the uncertainty regarding projected future financial results. Upon a change in facts and circumstances, management may conclude that sufficient positive evidence exists to support a reversal of, or decrease in, the valuation allowance in the future, which would favorably impact Stratus' results of operations. Stratus’ future results of operations may be negatively impacted by an inability to realize a tax benefit for future tax losses or for items that will generate additional deferred tax assets that are not more likely than not to be realized.

During 2023, Stratus expects to incur current state income taxes in addition to U.S. Federal current income taxes primarily associated with taxable income generated from cash received in the Holden Hills transaction discussed in Note 3.
16


The difference between Stratus' consolidated effective income tax rate of (16) percent for the first nine months of 2023 and the U.S. Federal statutory income tax rate of 21 percent was primarily attributable to state income taxes, noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries, the presence of a valuation allowance against its U.S. Federal net deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2023, and the executive compensation limitation. The difference between Stratus' consolidated effective income tax rate of (13) percent for the first nine months of 2022 and the U.S. Federal statutory income tax rate of 21 percent was primarily attributable to state income taxes, noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries, the presence of a valuation allowance against certain U.S. Federal deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2022, and the release of a reserve on uncertain tax positions related to the 2015 through 2017 U.S. Federal tax audit, which was closed in first-quarter 2022.

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the IR Act) was enacted in the United States. Among other provisions, the IR Act imposes a new 1 percent excise tax on the fair market value of net corporate stock repurchases made by covered corporations, effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. Stratus does not expect the IR Act to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

9.    BUSINESS SEGMENTS
As a result of the sale of Block 21, Stratus has two operating segments: Real Estate Operations and Leasing Operations. Block 21, which encompassed Stratus’ Hotel and Entertainment segments, along with some leasing operations, is presented as discontinued operations.

The Real Estate Operations segment is comprised of Stratus’ real estate assets (developed for sale, under development and available for development), which consists of its properties in Austin, Texas (including the Barton Creek Community, which includes Section N, Holden Hills, Amarra multi-family and commercial land, Amarra Villas, Amarra Drive lots and other vacant land; the Circle C community; the Lantana community, which includes a portion of Lantana Place planned for a multi-family phase known as The Saint Julia; The Saint George; and the land for The Annie B); in Lakeway, Texas, located in the greater Austin area (Lakeway); in College Station, Texas (land for future phases of retail and multi-family development and retail pad sites at Jones Crossing); and in Magnolia, Texas (land for a future phase of retail development and for future multi-family use and retail pad sites at Magnolia Place), Kingwood, Texas (a retail pad site) and New Caney, Texas (New Caney), each located in the greater Houston area.

The Leasing Operations segment is comprised of Stratus’ real estate assets held for investment that are leased or available for lease and includes The Saint June, West Killeen Market, Lantana Place, Kingwood Place and the completed portions of Jones Crossing and Magnolia Place and retail pad sites subject to ground leases at Lantana Place, Kingwood Place and Jones Crossing.

Stratus uses operating income or loss to measure the performance of each segment. General and administrative expenses, which primarily consist of employee salaries, wages and other costs, are managed on a consolidated basis and are not allocated to Stratus’ operating segments. The following segment information reflects management determinations that may not be indicative of what the actual financial performance of each segment would be if it were an independent entity.

OVERVIEW

We are a diversified real estate company with headquarters in Austin, Texas. We are engaged primarily in the acquisition, entitlement, development, management, leasing and sale of multi-family and single-family residential and commercial real estate properties in the Austin, Texas area and other select markets in Texas. In addition to our developed properties, we have a development portfolio that consists of approximately 1,600 acres of commercial and multi-family and single-family residential projects under development or undeveloped land held for future use. Refer to Note 9 for discussion of our operating segments and “Business Strategy” below for a discussion of our business strategy.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

Our primary business objective is to create value for stockholders by methodically developing and enhancing the value of our properties and then selling them or holding them for lease. Our successful development program of acquiring properties, securing and maintaining development entitlements, developing and stabilizing properties, and selling them or holding them as part of our leasing operations is a key element of our strategy. We may also seek to refinance properties in order to benefit from, when available, an increase in the value of the property or from lower interest rates or for other reasons. We are focused on the development of pure residential and residential-centric mixed-use projects in Austin and other select markets in Texas, which we believe continue to be attractive locations. From time to time, when deemed appropriate by our Board of Directors (Board) and permitted pursuant to the terms of our debt agreements, we may return cash to shareholders, as we did in 2022 and 2017 with special cash dividends totaling approximately $40 million and $8 million respectively, and as we have done during 2022 and 2023 through our $10.0 million share repurchase program, that was completed in October 2023. In November 2023, our Board approved a new $5.0 million share repurchase program. Refer to “Business Strategy” in MD&A in our 2022 Form 10-K for a discussion of the evolution of our strategy during 2022.

We do not currently have any material commitments to contribute additional cash to our joint venture projects or wholly owned development projects other than the potential additional $10.0 million of capital that we may be required to contribute to Holden Hills, L.P. (the Holden Hills partnership) and our share (related to Section N) of the cost of the Tecoma Improvements discussed below under “Recent Development Activities – Current Residential Activities – Barton Creek – Holden Hills.” However, between April and October 2023, we made operating loans totaling $3.3 million to Stratus Block 150, L.P. and The Saint June, L.P., and we anticipate making future operating loans to Stratus Block 150, L.P. and The Saint George Apartments, L.P. totaling up to $3.4 million over the next 12 months. Refer to Note 3 and “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Revolving Credit Facility and Other Financing Arrangements” and “Capital Resources and Liquidity – Liquidity Outlook” for further discussion. In addition, our development plans for future projects require significant additional capital. Our investment strategy focuses on projects that we believe will provide attractive long-term returns, while limiting our financial risk. We plan to continue to develop properties using project-level debt and third-party equity capital through joint ventures in which we receive development management fees and asset management fees, with our potential returns increasing above our relative equity interest in each project as negotiated return hurdles are achieved. Refer to Note 3.

We expect to reduce our reliance on our revolving credit facility and retain sufficient cash to operate our business, taking into account risks associated with changing market conditions and the variability in cash flows from our business. Our main sources of revenue and cash flow are expected to be sales of our properties to third parties or
21

distributions from joint ventures, the timing of and proceeds from which are difficult to predict and depend on market conditions and other factors. We also generate cash flow from rental income in our leasing operations and from development and asset management fees received from our properties. Due to the nature of our development-focused business, we do not expect to generate sufficient recurring cash flow to cover our general and administrative expenses each period. However, we believe that the unique nature and location of our assets, and our team’s ability to execute successfully on development projects, will provide us with positive cash flows and net income over time, as evidenced by our recent sales of The Saint Mary, The Santal and Block 21 in 2021 and 2022 and the cash distribution from the Holden Hills partnership in 2023. Further, we believe our investment strategy, current liquidity and pipeline of projects provide us with many years of opportunities to increase long-term value for our stockholders.

Largely as a result of our recent property sales and the cash distribution from the Holden Hills partnership, as of September 30, 2023 we had cash and cash equivalents of $35.2 million and availability under our revolving credit facility of $40.5 million. Given challenging market conditions discussed in more detail below, we are currently focused on successfully completing our projects under construction, managing our capital expenditures, advancing other projects through the planning, designing and entitlement process, maximizing cash flow from stabilized assets, controlling costs as much as possible in this inflationary environment, and working to manage and expand our credit and joint venture partner relationships. We will re-evaluate our strategy as development progresses on the projects in our pipeline and as market conditions continue to evolve.

OVERVIEW OF FINANCIAL RESULTS

Sources of Revenue and Income

Our Real Estate Operations encompass our activities associated with our acquisition, entitlement, development, and sale of real estate. The current focus of our real estate operations is multi-family and single-family residential properties and residential-centric mixed-use properties. We may sell or lease the real estate we develop, depending on market conditions. Multi-family and retail rental properties that we develop are reclassified to our Leasing Operations segment when construction is substantially completed and they are ready for occupancy. Revenue in our Real Estate Operations may be generated from the sale of properties that are developed, undeveloped or under development, depending on market conditions. Developed property sales can include an individual tract of land that has been developed and permitted for residential use or a developed lot with a residence built on it.

Revenue in our Leasing Operations is generated from the lease of space at retail and mixed-use properties and residences in the multi-family properties that we developed. We may also generate income from the sale of our leased properties, depending on market conditions.

Summary Financial Results for the Third-Quarter and First Nine Months of 2023

Our revenues totaled $3.7 million in third-quarter 2023 and $13.0 million for the first nine months of 2023, compared with $10.0 million in third-quarter 2022 and $24.2 million for the first nine months of 2022. The decrease in revenues in the 2023 periods, compared to the 2022 periods, is primarily a result of higher sales of undeveloped real estate properties in our Real Estate Operations segment in both 2022 periods compared to no sales in third-quarter 2023 and lower sales in the first nine months of 2023. The decreases were partially offset in both 2023 periods by an increase in revenue in our Leasing Operations segment primarily reflecting revenue from Magnolia Place and The Saint June, both of which had no rental revenue in the 2022 periods, as well as increased revenue at Kingwood Place and West Killeen Market. Refer to "Results of Operations" below for further discussion of our segments.

Our net loss attributable to common stockholders totaled $2.8 million, or $0.35 per diluted share in third-quarter 2023, compared to net loss attributable to common stockholders of $2.4 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, in third-quarter 2022. During the first nine months of 2023 our net loss attributable to common stockholders totaled $13.9 million, or $1.69 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $96.5 million, or $11.50 per diluted share, during the first nine months of 2022. Our results for the first nine months of 2022 include a $119.7 million pre-tax gain on the sale of Block 21. Refer to Note 4 under the heading “Block 21 - Discontinued Operations” for additional discussion. The results during the first nine months of 2022 also include a $4.8 million pre-tax gain recognized on the reversal of accruals for costs to lease and construct buildings under a master lease arrangement that we entered into in connection with our sale of The Oaks at Lakeway in 2017. Refer to Note 4 under the heading “The Oaks at Lakeway” for additional discussion.
