KAPALUA RESORT, Hawaii, March 01, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Maui Land & Pineapple Company, Inc. (NYSE: MLP) reported a net loss of $2.6 million, or $(0.14) per share, for the year ended December 31, 2020. This compares to a net loss of $10.4 million, or $(0.54) per share, for 2019. The Company reported revenues of $7.5 million and $10.0 million for 2020 and 2019, respectively.
For the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company recognized a net loss of $0.7 million, or $(0.04) per share. In 2019, the Company recognized a net loss of $9.1 million or $(0.47) per share for the fourth quarter. Operating revenues totaled $2.1 million and $2.5 million during the fourth quarters of 2020 and 2019, respectively.
In 2020, the disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic on global and national economies, as well as restrictions on travel and public gatherings, significantly impacted tourism activity on the island of Maui. As a result, operating revenues from our real estate leases and club membership program declined for the year and quarter ended December 31, 2020. The reduction in commercial rental income and club revenues were offset by the recovery of cash collateral related to an owner-controlled insurance program held by a dissolved investment entity and the sale of a 5.1-acre parcel in West Maui to the County of Maui for expanded storage capacity for its Lahaina wastewater system.
