EXPLANATORY NOTE

Blue Ridge Real Estate Company (Blue Ridge) and Big Boulder Corporation (Big Boulder and together with Blue Ridge, the Companies or the Registrants) are filing this Amendment No. 2 on Form 10-K/A (the Second Amendment) to amend and restate the Annual Report on Form 10-K of the Companies for the fiscal year ended October 30, 2011, as originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on January 30, 2012 (the Original Filing) and the Form 10-K/A Amendment No. 1 (the First Amendment), as filed with the SEC on January 30, 2012.   This Second Amendment is being filed to restate the Companies Combined Balance Sheet and Statement of Operations included in Exhibit 13.1 to the Original Filing and related disclosures (including Combined Summary of Selected Financial Data and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations) as of October 31, 2011 and 2010 and for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 as discussed in Note 2 to the combined financial statements included in Item 8 of this Second Amendment and to restate Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and Disclosure Controls and Procedures included in Item 9A.

As discussed in the Companies Current Report on Form 8-K dated September 24, 2012, the Companies are restating the Combined Statement of Operations for all relevant periods in the Original Filing referenced above to include four properties in discontinued operations.  The restatement does not affect the Companies net income (loss) for the relevant periods.  The properties include:

1.

approximately 1 acre of land in Fort Collins, Colorado on which an Applebees restaurant was located, sold by Blue Ridge on September 30, 2011;

2.

1.2 acres of land in Wallisville, Texas on which a Jack in the Box restaurant was located, sold by Blue Ridge on November 30, 2011;

4.

approximately 110 acres of land comprising the Big Boulder Ski Area, sold by Big Boulder on December 15, 2011.

Although this Second Amendment supersedes the Original Filing and the First Amendment in their entirety, this Second Amendment only amends and restates Items 6, 7, 8 and 9A of Part II as a result of and to reflect the restatements and the treatment of the four properties as discontinued operations, and no other information in the Original Filing and First Amendment is amended hereby.  While the foregoing items have been updated, this amended report does not reflect any other events occurring after the Original Filing.  In addition, currently dated certifications from our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, are attached to this Second Amendment as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2, respectively.

PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

Blue Ridge Real Estate Company

Blue Ridge Real Estate Company, or Blue Ridge, was incorporated in Pennsylvania in 1911 and is believed to be one of the largest owners of investment property in Northeastern Pennsylvania.  At October 31, 2011, Blue Ridge owned 13,236 acres of land predominately located in the Pocono Mountains, along with 13 acres of land in various other states.  Of this acreage, 10,159 acres were held for investment, 3,090 acres were held for development.  Income is derived from these lands through leases, selective timbering by third parties, sales and other dispositions. Included in the properties owned by Blue Ridge are: the Jack Frost National Golf Course on 203 acres of land;89 acres of land in Northeast Land Company of which 3 acres are held for investment and 86 acres of land held for development; a commercial property comprised of 2.9 acres of vacant land; a shopping center with 9.4 acres of land; four residential investment properties; three retail stores, two of which are leased to Walgreen Company on 3.4 acres and one of which was leased to Jack in the Box on 1.2 acres.  On November 29, 2011, Blue Ridge sold the retail store which was leased to Jack in the Box on 1.2 acres of land.  All of these investment properties are more fully described under Item 2 below.

Jack Frost Mountain Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Blue Ridge, was incorporated in Pennsylvania in 1980 and commenced operations on June 1, 1981. It was created to lease and operate the Jack Frost Mountain Ski Area and to provide certain services to other facilities, such as the Snow Ridge resort community, and to operate recreational facilities located within the Jack Frost Mountain tract. The lease between Blue Ridge and Jack Frost Mountain Company for the Jack Frost Mountain Ski Area was terminated on November 30, 2005.  On December 1, 2005, Blue Ridge entered into a 28-year lease with JFBB Ski Areas Inc., an unrelated party and an affiliate of Peak Resorts, for the lease of the Jack Frost Mountain Ski Area.  JFBB Ski Areas Inc. operated the Jack Frost Mountain Ski Area and made monthly lease payments to Blue Ridge during the ski season (January to April).  On December 15, 2011, Blue Ridge sold the Jack Frost Mountain Ski Area on approximately 201 acres of land to JFBB Ski Areas, Inc. and the lease was terminated.  Revenue generated by the lease prior to its termination is included in the Real Estate Management/Rental Operations business segment.

Northeast Land Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Blue Ridge, was incorporated in Pennsylvania in 1967. The primary asset of this subsidiary is 89 acres of land in Northeast Pennsylvania of which 3 acres are held for investment and 86 acres are held for development.  Revenue for Northeast Land Company is derived from property leases.  Effective October 1, 2006, Mountain Resort Villas, an unrelated party and an affiliate of Appletree Management Group, Inc. purchased certain property management and rental management contracts from Northeast Land Company.  Mountain Resort Villas currently leases certain buildings from the Companies for use in the operation and maintenance of Northeast Land Companys former rental program. In April 2009, management closed the real estate sales office known as Jack Frost Big Boulder Real Estate located in our Blue Heron Community in Lake Harmony, Pennsylvania.  Effective April 24, 2009, the Companies signed an agreement with Pocono Resorts Realty, a well-known local real estate agency, pursuant to which Pocono Resorts Realty markets the Companies current home sale listings and the newly constructed homes at Big Boulder.  Northeast Land Company has no employees.

and expanding our real estate sales division.  Due to the downturn in the housing market, in July 2008 we stopped accepting new construction contracts for the Stoney Run Builders and Stoney Run Realty custom home division and closed the sales office located in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania.  All of the signed contracts for custom built homes have been completed.

Coursey Commons Shopping Center, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Blue Ridge organized in Louisiana in May 2004, owns and leases the Coursey Commons Shopping Center, which is located on 9.4 acres of land in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.  Coursey Commons Shopping Center, LLC has no employees and is managed by Kimco Realty Corporation.

Big Boulder Corporation, or Big Boulder, was incorporated in Pennsylvania in 1949. At October 31, 2011, Big Boulders primary asset was 864 acres of land, which included a 175 acre lake, the Big Boulder Ski Area and the Boulder View Tavern (formerly known as the Mountains Edge Restaurant). Of the 864 acres, 560 acres were held for investment, and 304 acres were held for development. The principal source of revenue for Big Boulder is the sale of residential homes and real estate in close proximity to the Big Boulder Ski Area.  On December 1, 2005, Big Boulder entered into a 28-year lease with JFBB Ski Areas, Inc., an unrelated party and affiliate of Peak Resorts, for the lease of the Big Boulder Ski Area.  JFBB Ski Areas Inc. operated the Big Boulder Ski Area and made monthly lease payments to Big Boulder during the ski season (January to April).  On December 15, 2011, Big Boulder sold the Big Boulder Ski Area on approximately 110 acres of land to JFBB Ski Areas, Inc. and the lease was terminated.  Revenue generated by the lease prior to its termination is included in the Real Estate Management/Rental Operations business segment.

Strategy

Over the past 30 years, we have developed resort residential communities adjacent to the Jack Frost Mountain and Big Boulder Ski Areas located in Lake Harmony, Kidder Township, Pennsylvania.  These communities are located in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania, a popular recreation destination for local and regional visitors, especially from the New York City and Philadelphia metropolitan areas.  The scenic hills and valleys of the Pocono Mountains offer many opportunities to enjoy outdoor activities such as golfing, fishing, hunting, skiing, snowboarding and other sport venues.

At October 31, 2011, we owned 14,100 acres of land in Northeast Pennsylvania along with 13 acres in various other states.  Of these land holdings, we designated 10,719 as held for investment, 3,394 acres as held for development.  It is expected that all of our planned developments will either be subdivided and sold as parcels of land, or be developed into single and multi-family housing.

The real estate industry is cyclical and is subject to numerous economic factors including general business conditions, changes in interest rates, inflation and oversupply of properties.  Any sustained period of weakness or weakening business or economic condition in the markets in which we currently operate or intend to do business or in related markets, such as those we have experienced, will impact the demand for the type of properties we intend to develop.

We maximize the value of our land holdings through recreational land leases for hunting and fishing.

With recent changes in management and in light of the economic environment, we will undertake a thoughtful review of our strategic plan and update our master development plan.  We have initiated a process of cataloging our land inventory and our oil, gas and mineral rights and are developing a long term portfolio strategy with a view to maximize shareholder value.  We will continue to opportunistically look at asset sales.

Business Segments

We currently operate in two business segments, which consist of Real Estate Management/Rental Operations and Land Resource Management.  Our business segments were determined from our internal organization and management reporting, which are based primarily on differences in services we provide.  Financial information about our segments can be found in Note 17 to our audited financial statements.  We previously operated in three business segments, the third being Summer Recreation Operations.  Effective April 30, 2010, results of operations for the golf course were reclassified to the Land Resource Management segment from the Summer Recreation Operations segment.  The Summer Recreation Operations segment no longer exists as a result of the reclassification.  Certain amounts in the Fiscal 2009 and 2010 combined financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the Fiscal 2011 presentation.

Real Estate Management/Rental Operations

Real Estate Management/Rental Operations consists of: investment properties leased to others located in Eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Minnesota, Louisiana and Texas; recreational club activities and services to the trusts that operate resort residential communities; sales of investment properties; and rental of land and land improvements, which includes the leasing of the Jack Frost Mountain and Big Boulder Ski Areas.

Land Resource Management

Land Resource Management consists of: land sales; land purchases; timbering operations; the Jack Frost National Golf Course, and a real estate development division.  Timbering operations consist of selective timbering on our land holdings.  Contracts are entered into for parcels that have had the timber selectively marked.  We rely on the advice of our forester, who is engaged on a consulting basis and who receives a commission on each stumpage contract, for the timing and selection of certain parcels of land for timbering.  Our forester gives significant attention to protecting the environment and retaining the value of these parcels for future timber harvests.  The real estate development division is responsible for the residential land development activities which include overseeing the construction of single and multi-family homes and development of infrastructure.

Funds expended to date for real estate development have been primarily for infrastructure improvements and home construction in the Laurelwoods II and Boulder Lake Village communities.  Construction of 22 single family homes and four duplex homes in Laurelwoods II have been completed.  The construction of 18 condominium units within




4




Building J at Boulder Lake Village on Big Boulder Lake have been completed as well.  Other expenditures for our development projects in the planning phases include fees for architects, engineers, consultants, studies and permits.

Competition

Our Real Estate Management/Rental Operations segment faces competition from similar retail centers that are near our retail properties with respect to the renewal of leases and re-letting of space as leases expire.  Any new competitive properties that are developed close to our existing properties may impact our ability to lease space to creditworthy tenants.  Increased competition for tenants may require us to make capital improvements to properties that we would not have otherwise planned to make or may also have a downward impact on rental prices, which could adversely affect our results of operations.

Planned Real Estate Development

We have constructed 22 of 23 planned single family homes and eight of 44 duplex units in Phase I and Phase II of the Laurelwoods II community. In addition, we have constructed 18 of 144 planned condominium units at the Boulder Lake Village on Big Boulder Lake condominium community.  Of these projects, all of the single family homes, five of the duplex units and six of the condominium units have been sold.

Due to the sustained weakness of the housing market nationwide, we continue to monitor the progress of residential home sales within the Northeast region.  No new residential development projects until the market stabilizes.

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, or Fiscal 2012, we intend to continue selective sales of land, some of which may be treated as 1031 tax deferred exchanges under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

We are also taking various steps to attract new home and land sale customers.  For example, purchasers who want to purchase newly constructed duplex homes in our Laurelwoods II community development and can make a down payment of at least 20%, have the option of financing their mortgage through Big Boulder Corporation with interest only payments for five years.  We are also offering to the purchasers of the Laurelwoods II duplex townhomes and Boulder Lake Village condominiums prepaid dues for a one year membership with the Lake Mountain Club and complimentary passes to the Jack Frost National Golf Course.  We are also offering to pay six months of homeowners association fees on behalf of any current homeowner in the Blue Heron, Midlake Condominium, Laurelwoods Community and Snow Ridge Village developments that provide a purchaser referral which results in the sale of an existing Laurelwoods II duplex home.  We are also offering financing opportunities for the purchase of selected tracts of land.

We also continue to generate revenue through the selective timbering of our land.  We rely on the advice of our forester, who is engaged on a consulting basis and who receives a commission on each stumpage contract, for the timing and selection of certain parcels of land for timbering.  Our forester gives significant attention to protecting the environment and retaining the value of these parcels for future timber harvests.  Our forester has completed an inventory of our timber resources to aid us in considering valuations before entering into future timber agreements.

ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS

Our business faces significant risks. Some of the following risks relate principally to our business and the industry and statutory and regulatory environment in which we operate. Other risks relate principally to the securities markets and ownership of our stock. The risks described below may not be the only risks we face. Additional risks that we do not yet know of or that we currently think are immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any of the events or circumstances described in the following risk factors actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could suffer, and the trading price of our common stock could decline.

Risks Related to Our Business and Our Industry

We are exposed to risks associated with real estate development.

We have extensive real estate holdings near our mountain resorts and elsewhere in the United States.  The value of our real property and the revenue from related development activities may be adversely affected by a number of factors, including:

·

unexpected construction costs or delays;

·

government regulations and changes in real estate, zoning, land use, environmental or tax laws;

·

attractiveness of the properties to prospective purchasers and tenants;

·

local real estate conditions (such as an oversupply of space or a reduction in demand for real estate in an area);

·

competition from other available property or space;

·

potential liabilities under environmental and other laws;

·

our ability to obtain adequate insurance;

·

interest rate levels and the availability of financing; and

·

national and local economic climate.

A continued downturn in the demand for residential real estate, combined with the increase in the supply of real estate available for sale and declining prices, will continue to adversely impact our business.

The real estate development industry is cyclical in nature and is particularly vulnerable to shifts in regional and national economic conditions.  The United States housing market has suffered a dramatic downturn since July 2007.  The collapse of the housing market has contributed to the current recession in the national economy, which exerts further downward pressure on housing demand.  As a result, the supply of existing homes for sale has risen nationwide.  Resort vacation unit rental and ownership is a discretionary activity entailing relatively high costs, and a continued decline in the regional or national economies where we operate could adversely impact our real estate sales and revenues.  Accordingly, our financial condition could be adversely affected by a continued weakening in the regional or national economy.

If the market values of our home sites, our remaining inventory of completed homes and other developed real estate assets were to drop below the book value of those properties, we would be required to write-down the book value of those properties, which would have an adverse effect on our balance sheet and our earnings.

We have owned the majority of our land for many years, having acquired most of our land in the 1960s.  Consequently, we have a very low cost basis in the majority of our land holdings.  We have subdivided and developed parcels with infrastructure improvements and also constructed a golf course and clubhouse, which required significant capital expenditures.  Many of these costs are capitalized as part of the book value of the land development.  Adverse




6




market conditions, in certain circumstances, may require the book value of the real estate assets to be decreased, often referred to as a write-down or impairment.  A write-down of an asset would decrease the value of the asset on our balance sheet and would reduce our earnings for the period in which the write-down is recorded.

During 2011, we recorded total asset impairment costs of $1,178,651 which primarily related to the write-down of capitalized costs of two real estate projects due to current market conditions and the impairment of the direct financing lease which relates to the sale of the ski areas on December 15, 2011.  If market conditions were to continue to deteriorate, and the market values of our home sites, remaining homes held in inventory and other land developments were to fall below the book value of these assets, we could be required to take additional write-downs of the book value of those assets.

If we are not able to obtain suitable financing, our business and results of operations may decline.

Our business and earnings depend substantially on our ability to obtain financing for the development of our residential communities, whether from bank borrowings, public offerings or private placements of debt or equity.  Our revolving credit facilities mature in September 2012 and with approximately $20,770,000 of our long term debt due and payable at various times from December 2011 through August 2031.  Approximately 8,800,000 of that debt was paid with the proceeds of property sales which took place November 30, 2011 and December 15, 2011.

If we are not able to obtain suitable financing at reasonable terms or replace existing debt and credit facilities when they become due or expire, our costs for borrowings will likely increase and our revenues may decrease, or we could be precluded from continuing our operations at current levels.

If our net worth declines, we could default on our revolving credit facilities, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operation.

We have two revolving credit facilities available to provide a source of funds for operations, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes.  The credit facilities contain financial covenants that we must meet on an annual basis.  These restrictive covenants require, among other things, that the Companies comply with consolidated debt to worth, debt service coverage and tangible net worth ratios.  The Companies did not meet the required debt service coverage ratio at October 31, 2011 and 2010 and have obtained waivers from the Bank for this covenant.  Future compliance with this covenant will be challenging if we continue to experience significant operating losses, asset impairments, abandonments, pension plan losses and other reductions in our net worth.

If we do not comply with the financial covenants, and cannot obtain covenant waivers from the Bank, we could have an event of default under our credit facility.  There can be no assurance that the bank will be willing to amend the facility to provide for more lenient terms prior to any such default, or that it will not charge significant fees in connection with any such amendment.  If we have borrowings under the facility at the time of a default, the bank may choose to terminate the facility or seek to negotiate additional or more severe restrictive covenants or increased pricing and fees.  We could be required to seek an alternative funding source, which may not be available at all or available on acceptable terms.  Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Competition and market conditions relating to our real estate management operations could adversely affect our operating results.

We face competition from similar retail centers that are near our retail properties with respect to the renewal of leases and re-letting of space as leases expire. Any new competitive properties that are developed close to our existing properties also may impact our ability to lease space to creditworthy tenants. Increased competition for tenants may require us to make capital improvements to properties that we would not have otherwise planned to make or may also have a downward impact on rental prices. Any unbudgeted capital improvements could adversely affect our results of operations. Also, to the extent we are unable to renew leases or re-let space as leases expire, it would result in decreased cash flow from tenants and could adversely affect our results of operations.

Our retail properties are subject to adverse market conditions, such as population trends and changing demographics, income, sales and property tax laws, availability and costs of financing, construction costs and weather conditions that may increase energy costs, any of which could adversely affect our results of operations. If the sales of stores operating at our properties were to decline significantly due to economic conditions, the risk that our tenants will be unable to fulfill the terms of their leases or will enter into bankruptcy may increase. Economic and market conditions have




7




a substantial impact on the performance of our anchor and other tenants and may impact the ability of our tenants to make lease payments and to renew their leases. If, as a result of such tenant difficulties, our properties do not generate sufficient income to meet our operating expenses, including debt service, our results of operations would be adversely affected.

Our business is subject to heavy environmental and land use regulation.

We are subject to a wide variety of federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to land use and development and to environmental compliance and permitting obligations, including those related to the use, storage, discharge, emission and disposal of hazardous materials.  Any failure to comply with these laws could result in capital or operating expenditures or the imposition of severe penalties or restrictions on our operations that could adversely affect our present and future resort operations and real estate development.  In addition, these laws and regulations could change in a manner that materially and adversely affects our ability to conduct our business or to implement desired expansions and improvements to our facilities.

We are subject to litigation in the ordinary course of business.

We are, from time to time, subject to various legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted. Any such claims, whether with or without merit, could be time-consuming and expensive to defend and could divert managements attention and resources. While management believes we have adequate insurance coverage and accrued loss contingencies for all known matters, we cannot assure that the outcome of all current or future litigation will not have a material adverse effect on us.

Implementation of existing and future legislation, rulings, standards and interpretations from the FASB or other regulatory bodies could affect the presentation of our financial statements and related disclosures.

Future regulatory requirements could significantly change our current accounting practices and disclosures. Such changes in the presentation of our financial statements and related disclosures could change the interpretation or perception of our financial position and results of operations.

If we are unable to retain our key executive personnel and hire additional personnel as required, our business and prospects for growth could suffer.

We believe that our operations and future development are dependent upon the continued services of our key executive personnel.  Moreover, we believe our future success will depend in large part upon our ability to attract, retain and motivate highly skilled management employees.  If one or more members of our management team or other key personnel become unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions and if additional key personnel cannot be hired as needed, our business and prospects for growth could be materially adversely affected.

The cyclical nature of the forest products industry could adversely affect our timbering operations.

Our results of operations are affected by the cyclical nature of the forest products industry.  Historical prices for logs and wood products have been volatile, and we, like other participants in the forest products industry, have limited direct influence over the time and extent of price changes for logs and wood products. The demand for logs and wood products is affected primarily by the level of new residential construction activity and, to a lesser extent, repair and remodeling activity and other industrial uses. The demand for logs is also affected by the demand for wood chips in the pulp and paper markets. These activities are, in turn, subject to fluctuations due to, among other factors:

·

changes in domestic and international economic conditions;

·

interest rates;

·

population growth and changing demographics; and

·

seasonal weather cycles (e.g., dry summers, wet winters).

Decreases in the level of residential construction activity generally reduce demand for logs and wood products. This results in lower revenues, profits and cash flows in our Land Resources Management segment. In addition, industry-wide increases in the supply of logs and wood products during favorable price environments can also lead to downward pressure on prices. Timber owners generally increase production volumes for logs and wood products during favorable price environments. Such increased production, however, when coupled with even modest declines in demand for these products in general, could lead to oversupply and lower prices.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

The exercise of outstanding options may dilute your ownership of our common stock.

As of January 27, 2012, options to acquire 14,000 shares of our common stock were outstanding; all of which are exercisable at per share prices of $39.00, with a weighted average exercise price of $39.00.

We do not expect to pay dividends on our common stock.

Although we have previously declared and paid dividends on our common stock in the past, we do not anticipate declaring or paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. We plan to retain any future earnings to finance the continued expansion and development of our business. As a result, our dividend policy could depress the market price for our common stock.

We are effectively controlled by Kimco Realty Services, Inc., and other shareholders have little ability to influence our business.

As of January 27, 2012, Kimco Realty Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kimco Realty Corporation, owned at least 1,425,154 shares, or approximately 58% of our outstanding voting stock. Kimco Realty Services is able to exercise significant control over all matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate actions, such as mergers and other business combination transactions.  This concentration of ownership may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control over us unless it is supported by Kimco Realty Services.  Accordingly, your ability to influence us through voting your shares is very limited.

Mr. Michael J. Flynn, the Chairman of our board of directors, was also President, Chief Operating Officer and Vice Chairman of the board of directors of Kimco Realty Corporation until his retirement on December 31, 2008.  In addition, Mr. Patrick M. Flynn, who served as one of our directors and was our President and Chief Executive Officer until his resignation on August 12, 2011, was also a Managing Director of Real Estate at Kimco Realty Corporation.  Finally, Mr. Milton Cooper, who serves as one of our directors, also serves as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the board of directors of Kimco Realty Corporation.

Our common stock is thinly traded. Our stock price may fluctuate more than the stock market as a whole.

As a result of the thin trading market for our stock, its market price may fluctuate significantly more than the stock market as a whole or the stock prices of similar companies.  Of the 2,450,424 shares of our common stock outstanding as of January 27, 2012, approximately 42% of such shares are beneficially owned by persons other than Kimco Realty Services, our controlling shareholder.  Without a larger float, our common stock will be less liquid than the stock of companies with broader public ownership, and, as a result, the trading prices for our common stock may be more volatile. Among other things, trading of a relatively small volume of our common stock may have a greater impact on the trading price for our stock than would be the case if our public float were larger.

Our shareholders may perceive a conflict of interest because we do not currently maintain a fully independent audit committee.

Prior to August 12, 2011, our audit committee was made up of three individuals: Bruce F. Beaty, Patrick Flynn and Michael J. Flynn.  Effective August 12, 2011, Mr. Patrick Flynn, who was our President and served as a member of our board of directors, resigned from the Companies, and as of August 12, 2011 our audit committee has been comprised of Messrs. Beaty and Michael J. Flynn.  Effective August 12, 2011 Mr. Beaty was appointed as President of the Companies.  Mr. Michael J. Flynn was formerly the President, Chief Operating Officer and Vice Chairman of the board of directors of Kimco Realty Corporation until his retirement in December 2008.  Although we are exempt from regulations mandating an independent audit committee, our shareholders may perceive a conflict of interest because of the nature of the relationships of certain members of the audit committee.

   Dividend Policy

We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance our operations and expand our business. Any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of the board of directors and will be dependent upon our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements, and other factors the board of directors deems relevant.

STOCK PERFORMANCE GRAPH

The following graph compares the percentage change in the cumulative total shareholder return on our common stock (BLRGZ) during the Companies five fiscal years ended October 31, 2011 to the cumulative total return of the NASDAQ Composite Index (IXIC) and the PHLX Housing Sector (HGX) Index during such period.  

Our management has determined that it is appropriate to compare the Companies cumulative total shareholder return with the cumulative total return of the PHLX Housing Sector (HGX) Index, which is an index composed of 20 smaller companies whose primary lines of business are directly associated with the U.S. housing construction market.

The comparison assumes that $100 was invested at the beginning of such period in the Companies shares of common stock (BLRGZ), in the NASDAQ Composite Index (IXIC) and in the PHLX Housing Sector (HGX) Index and assumes the reinvestment of any dividends.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Over the past 30 years, we have developed resort residential communities adjacent to the Jack Frost Mountain and Big Boulder Ski Areas located in Lake Harmony, Kidder Township, Pennsylvania.  These communities are located in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania, a popular recreation destination for local and regional visitors, especially from the New York City and Philadelphia metropolitan areas.  The scenic hills and valleys of the Pocono Mountains offer many opportunities to enjoy outdoor activities such as golfing, fishing, hunting, skiing, snowboarding and other sport venues.

At October 31, 2011, we owned 14,100 acres of land in Northeastern Pennsylvania along with 13 acres of land in various other states.  Of these land holdings, we designated 3,394 acres as held for development.  It is expected that all of our planned developments will either be subdivided and sold as parcels of land, or be developed into single and multi-family housing.

The real estate industry is cyclical and is subject to numerous economic factors including general business conditions, changes in interest rates, inflation and oversupply of properties.  Any sustained period of weakness or weakening business or economic condition in the markets in which we intend to do business or in related markets, such as those we have experienced, will impact the demand for the type of properties we intend to develop.

Due to the sustained weakness of the housing market nationwide, the Companies continue to monitor the progress of residential home sales within the Northeast region.  No new residential development projects will be started until the market stabilizes.




13




With recent changes in management and in light of the economic environment, we will undertake a thoughtful review of our strategic plan and update our master development plan.  We have initiated a process of cataloging our land inventory and our oil, gas and mineral rights and are developing a long term portfolio strategy with a view to maximize shareholder value.  We will continue to opportunistically look at asset sales.

For Fiscal 2011, we intend to continue selective sales of land, some of which may be treated as Section 1031 tax deferred exchanges under the Internal Revenue Code.

We are also taking various steps to attract new home and land sale customers.  For example, purchasers who want to purchase newly constructed single family homes in our Laurelwoods II community development and can make a down payment of at least 20%, have the option of financing their mortgage through Big Boulder Corporation with interest only payments for five years.  We are also offering prepaid dues for a one year membership with the Lake Mountain Club and complimentary passes to the Jack Frost National Golf Course to the purchasers of the existing Laurelwoods II single family and duplex townhomes.  We are also offering to pay six months of homeowners association fees on behalf of any current homeowner in the Blue Heron, Midlake Condominium, Laurelwoods Community and Snow Ridge Village developments that provide a purchaser referral which results in the sale of an existing Laurelwoods II single family home.  We are also offering financing opportunities for the purchase of selected tracts of land.

We also generate revenue through the selective timbering of our land.  We rely on the advice of our forester, who is engaged on a consulting basis and who receives a commission on each stumpage contract, for the timing and selection of certain parcels for timbering.  Our forester gives significant attention to protecting the environment and retaining the value of these parcels for future timber harvests.  Our forester has completed an inventory of our timber resources to aid us in considering valuations before entering into future timber agreements.

The Jack Frost National Golf Course opened in the spring of 2007.  The golf course is managed by Billy Casper Golf, LLC, a nationally-recognized golf course management company.

As a result of the Companies focus on real estate activities, we present our balance sheet in an unclassified presentation using the alternate format in order to reflect our assets and liabilities in order of their importance.

Recent Developments

Effective August 12, 2011, Mr. Patrick Flynn resigned his position as Director and President of the Companies.  On August 8, 2011 the Board of Directors unanimously approved the appointment of Bruce Beaty as President effective August 12, 2011. Mr. Beaty, age 52, has served on the Companies Board of Directors since April 2006.  Mr. Beaty also has served as the Managing Partner of Asterion Capital LLC, an investment management firm based in Stamford, Connecticut, since he founded the company in February 2004.  The Companies pay Mr. Beaty $50,000 as annual compensation for his service.

On August 15, 2011 the Companies entered into an amendment to the Phase 3 Agreement of Sale dated February 17, 2011 with The Conservation Fund, extending the inspection period from August 16, 2011 to February 16, 2012.  The Agreement of Sale is for 376 acres in Thornhurst, Lackawanna County for the purchase price of $1,600,000.

On September 30, 2011 the Companies sold the property located at 4306 South College Avenue in Fort Collins, Colorado for the purchase price of $1,450,000.

On October 1, 2011, the Companies entered into an Agreement of Sale for the property located in Chambers County, Texas for the purchase price of $1,911,410.  On November 30, 2011, the Companies closed on the sale of the Chambers County property to Phyllis Enfield Trust.  A portion of the net proceeds of the sale were used to repay in full the outstanding balance under a note of $1,009,002 to Barbers Hill Bank.

On October 31, 2011, the Companies entered into two separate Agreements of Sale with JFBB Ski Areas, Inc., a subsidiary of Peak Resorts, Inc. for the Jack Frost Mountain and Big Boulder Ski Areas located in Kidder Township, Carbon County, Pennsylvania for an aggregate purchase price of $9,000,000.  On December 15, 2011, Blue Ridge Real Estate Company and Big Boulder Corporation closed on the sale of the two ski areas to JFBB Ski Areas, Inc.  A portion of the net proceeds of the sale were used to repay outstanding debt to the Bank in the amount of $7,777,933.

We are currently offering for sale homes in our Laurelwoods II community and our Boulder Lake Village Condominium development overlooking Big Boulder Ski Resort located in Lake Harmony, Pennsylvania. In Phase I of




14




the Laurelwoods II community, we have completed construction on 22 single family homes, all of which have been sold.  We have received municipal approval for the construction of 44 duplex and 22 single units in Phase II of our Laurelwoods II community, and we have completed the construction of eight of the duplex units.  Five of these completed units have been sold and the three other units are in inventory.  We have also received municipal approval for the construction of 144 condominium units in our Boulder Lake Village Condominium development.  Boulder Lake Village Building J is comprised of 18 condominium units, and we have completed construction on all of these units.  Six of the units have been sold, one unit has been decorated as a model, one unit accommodates a sales office and ten are held in inventory.  Our management has made the decision not to begin construction on any additional planned homes or units until the housing market recovers.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

We have identified the most critical accounting policies upon which our financial reporting depends.  The critical policies and estimates were determined by considering accounting policies that involve the most complex or subjective decisions or assessments.  The most critical accounting policies identified relate to deferred tax liabilities, net investment in direct financing leases, the valuation of land development costs and long-lived assets, and revenue recognition.

Revenues are derived from a wide variety of sources, including sales of real estate, management of investment properties, home construction, property management services, timbering, golf activities and leasing activities.  Revenues are recognized as services are performed, except as noted below.

We recognize income on the disposition of real estate using the full accrual method.  The full accrual method is appropriate at closing when the sales contract has been signed, the buyer has arranged permanent financing and the risks and rewards associated with ownership have been transferred to the buyer.  In the few instances that the Companies finance the sale, a minimum 20% down payment is required from the buyers.  The remaining financed purchase price is not subject to subordination.  Down payments of less than 20% are accounted for as deposits.

The costs of developing land for resale as resort homes and the costs of constructing certain related amenities are allocated to the specific parcels to which the costs relate. Such costs, as well as the costs of construction of the resort homes, are charged to operations as sales occur. Land held for resale and resort homes under construction are stated at lower of cost or market.

We recognize revenue and costs on custom home construction using the percentage of completion method of accounting when construction is beyond the preliminary stage, the buyer is committed and may only require a refund in the event of non-delivery, if the sales proceeds are collectible and if the aggregate sales proceeds and the total cost of the project can be reasonably estimated.  Total estimated revenues and construction costs are reviewed periodically, and any change is applied prospectively.

Timbering revenues from stumpage contracts are recognized at the time a stumpage contract is signed.  At the time a stumpage contract is signed, the risk of ownership is passed to the buyer at a fixed, determinable cost.  There is no transfer of title in connection with these contracts.  Reasonable assurance of collectibility is determined by the date of signing, and, at that time, the obligations of the Companies are satisfied.  Therefore, full accrual recognition at the time of contract execution is appropriate.

Deferred income consists of rents, ski area leases, dues and deposits on land or home sales. These rents, which are not yet earned, are rents from our commercial properties that have been paid in advance.  Ski area leases are paid over a four month period from December to March and recognized over the year.  Dues are dues paid in advance related to memberships in our hunting and fishing clubs and golf course memberships paid.  Revenues related to the hunting and fishing clubs and golf course memberships are recognized over the seasonal period that the dues cover.  We recognize revenue related to the fishing club over a five month period, from May through September, and the golf course over a seven month period, from April through October.  Deposits are required on land and home sales.

Managements estimate of deferred tax assets and liabilities is primarily based on the difference between the tax basis and financial reporting basis of depreciable assets and the net investment in direct financing leases, like-kind exchanges of assets, net operating losses, stock options and accruals.  Valuation allowances are established, when necessary to reduce tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

We have capitalized as the net investment in direct financing leases, that portion of the leased premises pertaining to Jack Frost Mountain and Big Boulder Ski Areas, which met the criteria for accounting for these transactions as direct financing leases.  The accounting is based on estimates and assumptions about the fair values and estimated useful lives of the leased properties, as well as, the collectibility of lease payments and recoverability of the unguaranteed residual value of the leased properties.  We periodically review the net investment in direct financing leases for events or changes in circumstances that may impact collectibility, and recoverability of the unguaranteed residual value of leased properties.

We capitalize as land and land development costs, the original acquisition cost, direct construction and development costs, property taxes, interest incurred on costs related to land under development and other related costs (engineering, surveying, landscaping, etc.) until the property reaches its intended use.  The cost of sales for individual parcels of real estate or condominium units within a project is determined using the relative sales value method.  Revenue is recognized upon signing of the closing documents, at which time a binding contract is in effect, the buyer has arranged for permanent financing and the Companies are assured of payment in full.  In addition, at the time of closing, the risks and rewards associated with ownership have been transferred to the buyer.  Selling expenses are recorded when incurred.

Long-lived assets, namely properties, are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization is provided principally using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. Upon sale or retirement of the asset, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the related accounts, and resulting gains or losses are reflected in income.

Interest, real estate taxes, and insurance costs, including those costs associated with holding unimproved land, are normally charged to expense as incurred. Interest cost incurred during construction of facilities is capitalized as part of the cost of such facilities. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense, and major renewals and betterments are added to property accounts.

We review our long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable.  In that event, we calculate the expected future net cash flows to be generated by the asset.  If those net future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized in operating income.  The impairment loss is the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the asset.  The impairment loss is recognized in the period incurred.

We sponsor a defined benefit pension plan as detailed in footnote 10 to the accompanying combined financial statements.  The accounting for pension cost is determined by specialized accounting and actuarial methods using numerous estimates, including discount rates, expected long-term investment returns on plan assets, employee turnover, mortality and retirement ages, and future salary increases.  Changes in these key assumptions can have a significant effect on the pension plans impact on the Companies financial statements.  We engage the services of an independent actuary and investment consultant to assist us in determining these assumptions and in calculating pension income.  The pension plan is currently underfunded and accordingly the Companies have made contributions to the fund of $637,600 and $402,126 in Fiscal 2011 and Fiscal 2010, respectively.  The Companies expect to contribute $545,687 to the pension plan in Fiscal 2012.   Future benefit accruals under the pension plan ceased as of August 31, 2010.  The Companies also have in place a 401(k) pension plan that is available to all full time employees.  Effective August 1, 2010, the Companies match 50% of employee salary deferral contributions up to 3% of their pay for each payroll period.

The Companies recognize as compensation expense an amount equal to the grant date fair value of the stock options issued over the required service period.  Compensation cost was measured using the modified prospective approach.

The fair value of each option award is estimated at the date of grant using an option pricing model.  Expected volatilities are based upon historical volatilities of the Companies stock.  The Companies use historical data to estimate option exercises and employee terminations with the valuation model.  The expected term of options granted is derived from the output of the valuation model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding.  The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

Results of Operations

FISCAL 2011 VERSUS FISCAL 2010

Net Income

   For Fiscal 2011, we reported a net loss of ($2,474,765), or ($1.01) per combined share, as compared with a net loss of ($3,409,080), or ($1.39) per combined share for Fiscal 2010.

Revenues

   Combined revenue of $5,697,146 in Fiscal 2011 represents an increase of $264,867, or 5%, compared to $5,432,279 for Fiscal 2010. Real Estate Management Operations/Rental Operations revenue decreased $50,790, or 2%, compared to Fiscal 2010.  Land Resource Management revenue increased $315,657, or 12%, compared to Fiscal 2010.

Real Estate Management/Rental Operations

   The Real Estate Management Operations/Rental Operations revenue was $2,824,476 in Fiscal 2011 as compared to $2,875,266 in Fiscal 2010, which represented a decrease of $50,790, or 2%. This was primarily attributable to a decrease in new home construction revenue resulting from managements decision to stop accepting new home construction contracts as of July 1, 2008. For Fiscal 2011 and 2010, there were no new homes under construction.

Land Resource Management

   Land Resource Management revenue was $2,872,670 in Fiscal 2011 as compared to $2,557,013 for Fiscal 2010, an increase of $315,657, or 12%. In Fiscal 2011, new homes sales totaling $1,830,315 consisted of four condominiums in Boulder Lake Village development ($1,198,700) and two duplexes in the Laurelwoods II development ($631,615) as compared to one condominium in the Boulder Lake Village development ($320,000) and three single family residences ($873,575) in the Laurelwoods II development totaling $1,193,575 in Fiscal 2010, for an increase of $636,740, or 53%. These increases were offset by the sale of two land sales totaling $159,500, as compared to four land sales in Fiscal 2010 totaling $336,750, a decrease of $177,250, or greater than 100%.

Operating Costs

   Real Estate Management/Rental Operations

   Operating costs associated with Real Estate Management Operations/Rental Operations for Fiscal 2011 were $1,990,356 as compared to $2,129,344 for Fiscal 2010, which represents a decrease of $138,988 or 7%. For Fiscal 2011, construction costs of $250 and operating expenses of $0 for residual work on existing residential housing units as compared to Fiscal 2010 construction costs of $77,428 and operating expenses of $113,134 for residual work on existing residential housing units, a decrease of $190,312, or 100%. This was primarily attributable to a decrease in new home construction resulting from managements decision to stop accepting new home construction contracts as of July 1, 2008. For Fiscal 2011 and 2010, there were no additional homes under construction.  All outstanding construction contracts have been completed. This was offset by increased operating expenses for real estate taxes ($57,815), repairs and maintenance ($12,026), insurance ($7,872) and supplies ($5,408) relating to the land leased to various hunting clubs and the Stretch fishing club.

   Land Resource Management

   Operating costs associated with Land Resource Management for Fiscal 2011 were $4,436,374 compared to $5,612,485 for Fiscal 2010, a decrease of $1,176,111, or 21%.  Construction costs for Fiscal 2011 were $1,092,851 compared to $842,313 for Fiscal 2010, an increase of $250,358, or 30%. For Fiscal 2011, two duplex units and four condominium units were sold as compared to three single family residential units and one condominium unit sold in Fiscal 2010. Correspondingly, the operating and sales expenses also increased $1,078,346, or greater than 100%. These operating and sales expenses primarily related to impairments ($676,651), interest ($110,891), closing costs ($60,112), commissions ($31,506) and salaries with corresponding payroll taxes and benefits ($51,323).    The cost of sales for land and buildings for Fiscal 2011 was $123,004 compared to $241,639 for Fiscal 2010, a decrease of $118,635, or 49%. This decrease was offset by an asset impairment of $73,000 related to unimproved land reflected in Fiscal 2010 and $0 in Fiscal 2011.




17




   General and Administration

   General and administration costs for Fiscal 2011 were $1,791,381, as compared with $2,438,220 for Fiscal 2010, which represents a decrease of $646,839, or 27%. This decrease was primarily the result of decreased salaries, payroll taxes and benefits ($150,660), pension expense ($278,641), due to the defined benefit plan being frozen as of August 31, 2010 resulting in reduced contributions, professional fees ($75,154), consultants ($69,430) and closing costs ($24,686).

Other Income (Expense)

   Interest and other income was $11,259 in Fiscal 2011, as compared to $21,591 in Fiscal 2010, a decrease of $10,332, or 48% relating to miscellaneous revenue administration.   

   Interest expense for Fiscal 2011 was $1,415,031 as compared to $1,261,339 for Fiscal 2010, an increase of $153,692, or 12%. This increase was primarily attributable to a $174,360 increase in interest expense associated with the companies operating lines of credit related to infrastructure costs and general operating expenses and a decrease in capitalized interest due to the units being completed.  These increases were offset by an $11,841 reduction in interest expense relating to four completed units in the Laurelwoods II community.

Discontinued Operations

   Due to managements decision to sell the two ski areas and two commercial properties, the results of operations for these four properties for Fiscal 2011 and 2010 are being reported as discontinued operations. Future cash flows and operating results for the two ski areas and two commercial properties will no longer be reported in the Real Estate Management / Rental segment. Both the loss resulting from the sale of the two ski areas (reported as a valuation allowance) and the gain resulting from the sale of the Applebees are no longer reported in the Land Resource Management segment.  

   The net income before taxes from the discontinued operations for the Applebees in Fiscal 2011 was $84,075 as compared to $41,591 in Fiscal 2010.  The increase of $42,484 includes the gain of $25,721 on the sale of the property and two additional months of operation.  The Applebees was purchased February 25, 2010 and sold September 30, 2011.

   The net income before taxes from discontinued operations for the Jack in the Box was $19,063 in Fiscal 2011 versus $10,326 in Fiscal 2010.  The increase of $8,737 is primarily due to reduced depreciation expense as the asset was reclassified to Long-lived assets held for sale in October 2011.

  The net income before taxes from discontinued operations for the Jack Frost Mountain and Big Boulder ski areas was $57,669 in Fiscal 2011 compared to $553,521 in Fiscal 2010.  The decrease of $495,852 is primarily due to a valuation allowance of $502,000 recorded in Fiscal 2011.  The sale transaction on December 15, 2011 resulted in a loss; therefore an allowance was reported in Fiscal 2011.

Tax Rate

   The effective tax rate for income taxes (benefit) was 34% in Fiscal 2011 as compared to 37% in Fiscal 2010.  The rate is different than the United States Federal statutory rate of 34% in Fiscal 2010 primarily due to the impact of state income taxes and non-deductible expenses.

Results of Operations

FISCAL 2010 VERSUS FISCAL 2009

Net Income

   For Fiscal 2010, we reported a net loss of ($3,409,080), or ($1.39) per combined share, as compared with a net income of $149,246, or $0.06 per combined share for Fiscal 2009.

Revenues

   Combined revenue of $5,432,279 in Fiscal 2010 represents a decrease of $10,082,986, or 65%, compared to $15,515,265 for Fiscal 2009. Real Estate Management Operations/Rental Operations revenue decreased $649,758, or 18%, compared to Fiscal 2009.  Land Resource Management revenue decreased $9,433,228, or 79% compared to Fiscal 2009.




18




Real Estate Management/Rental Operations

   The Real Estate Management Operations/Rental Operations revenue was $2,875,266 in Fiscal 2010 as compared to $3,525,024 in Fiscal 2009, which represented in a decrease of $649,758, or 18%. This was primarily attributable to a decrease in new home construction revenue resulting from managements decision to stop accepting new home construction contracts as of July 1, 2008. For Fiscal 2010, there were no new homes under construction as compared to two new homes under construction in Fiscal 2009.

Land Resource Management

   Land Resource Management revenue was $2,557,013 in Fiscal 2010 as compared to $11,990,241 for Fiscal 2009, a decrease of $9,443,228, or 79%. This is primarily attributable to four land sales in Fiscal 2010 totaling $336,750 as compared to six land sales in Fiscal 2009 totaling $8,167,000, a decrease of $7,830,250, or 97%. In Fiscal 2009 there were two separate land sale transactions in June 2009 and August 2009 to The Conservation Fund of 2,699 acres of land for an aggregate sale price of $6,875,000. In September 2009, we also sold a commercial property in Laurens, South Carolina for the sale price of $1,275,000. In Fiscal 2010, new home sales consisted of three single family residences ($873,575) and one condominium in the Boulder Lake Village development ($320,000) totaling $1,193,575 as compared to Fiscal 2009 new home sales of three single family residences ($985,590), three duplex units ($1,362,596) in the Laurelwoods II community and one condominium unit in the Boulder Lake Village development ($472,000), totaling $2,820,546 for a decrease of $1,626,971, or 58%.

Operating Costs

   Real Estate Management/Rental Operations

   Operating costs associated with Real Estate Management Operations/Rental Operations for Fiscal 2010 were $2,129,344 as compared to $3,095,898 for Fiscal 2009, which represents a decrease of $966,554, or 31%. For Fiscal 2010, construction costs of $77,428 and operating expenses of $113,134 for residual work on existing residential housing units as compared to Fiscal 2009 construction costs of $615,245 and operating expenses of $360,430 on two residential housing units, a decrease of $785,112, or 80%. This was primarily attributable to a decrease in new home construction resulting from managements decision to stop accepting new home construction contracts as of July 1, 2008. For Fiscal 2010, there were no additional homes under construction as compared to two homes under construction in Fiscal 2009.  All outstanding construction contracts have been substantially completed.

Land Resource Management

   Operating costs associated with Land Resource Management for Fiscal 2010 were $5,612,485 compared to $10,266,197 for Fiscal 2009, a decrease of $4,653,712, or 45%. This decrease is primarily the result of asset abandonments totaling $0 in Fiscal 2010 as compared to $1,686,209 for Fiscal 2009 and asset impairments in Fiscal 2010 totaling $2,376,000 as compared to $2,518,000 for Fiscal 2009. The abandonment expense is the result of various capital projects written off due to changes in the economic climate and changes in governmental regulations which management believes make the development projects economically unfeasible. The impairment expense is the result of various asset carrying values in excess of fair market value that may not be recoverable.  The fair market value is determined using numerous estimates, including discount rates, sales prices and sale dates.  Changes in these key assumptions can have a significant effect on the fair market value of these assets and thus an impact on the Companies financial statements.  We engaged the services of an independent specialist to assist us in determining these assumptions and the calculation of fair values.  Additionally, the decrease in land resource management operating costs in Fiscal 2010 was also impacted by the decrease in construction costs related to the single family residential units and duplex units at Laurelwoods and the Boulder Lake Village condominium. Construction costs for Fiscal 2010 were $842,313 compared to $2,014,162 for Fiscal 2009, a decrease of $1,171,849, or 58%. For Fiscal 2010, three single family residential units and one condominium unit were sold as compared to three single family residential units, three duplex units and one condominium unit sold in Fiscal 2009. Correspondingly, the operating and sales expenses also decreased $104,747, or 12%. These operating and sales expenses primarily related to closing costs ($78,817), commissions ($79,619), advertising ($34,159), and professional fees ($22,255) and were offset by increases to interest expense ($66,123) and holding costs ($8,301). The cost of sales for land and buildings for Fiscal 2010 was $241,639 compared to $1,703,344 for Fiscal 2009, a decrease of $1,461,705, or 86%. This decrease was attributable to two land sale transactions to The Conservation Fund in June 2009 and August 2009 ($527,739) and the sale of the commercial property in Laurens, South Carolina in September 2009 ($1,175,585).




19




   General and Administration

   General and administration costs for Fiscal 2010 were $2,438,220, as compared with $1,639,307 for Fiscal 2009, which represents an increase of $797,913, or 49%. This increase was primarily the result of a $251,707 increase in salary expense as a result of no longer capitalizing salaries, $330,620 increase in pension expense, resulting from reduced investment returns, and an increase of $211,110 in professional fees related to regulatory reporting requirements.

Other Income (Expense)

   Interest and other income was $21,591 in Fiscal 2010, as compared to $12,812 in Fiscal 2009, an increase of $8,779, or 69%.  This increase was the result of a loss from the disposal of an asset occurring in Fiscal 2009 as the asset was no longer available for use.

   Interest expense for Fiscal 2010 was $1,261,339 as compared to $1,035,171 for Fiscal 2009, an increase of $226,168, or 22%. This increase was primarily attributable to a $209,643 increase in interest expense associated with two commercial investment properties, which was the result of the refinancing in Fiscal 2009 of the debt related to these commercial investment properties. The previous financing for these two commercial investment properties was in short-term notes with interest only payments due until maturity. On August 28, 2009, we replaced the debt on both of these properties with long-term financing.  These increases were offset by an $11,689 reduction in interest expense relating to two completed units in the Laurelwoods II community which were sold in Fiscal 2010.

Tax Rate

   The effective tax rate for income taxes (benefit) was 37% in Fiscal 2010 as compared to (126%) in Fiscal 2009.  The rate is different than the United States Federal statutory rate of 34% primarily due to the impact of state income taxes and non-deductible expenses.

Discontinued Operations

   Due to managements decision to sell the two ski areas and two commercial properties, the results of operations for these four properties for Fiscal 2010 and 2009 are being reported as discontinued operations. Future cash flows and operating results for the two ski areas and two commercial properties will no longer be reported in the Real Estate Management / Rental segment.  

   The net income before taxes from the discontinued operations for the Applebees in Fiscal 2010 was $41,591 as compared to $0 in Fiscal 2009.  The Applebees was purchased February 25, 2010.

   The net income before taxes from discontinued operations for the Jack in the Box was $10,326 in Fiscal 2010 versus $50,351 in Fiscal 2009.  The decrease of ($40,025) is primarily due to interest expense.  The property was mortgaged in May 2009; therefore Fiscal 2010 has twelve months of interest versus six months of interest in Fiscal 2009.

  The net income before taxes from discontinued operations for the Jack Frost Mountain and Big Boulder ski areas was $553,521 in Fiscal 2010 compared to $535,034 in Fiscal 2009.  The increase of $18,487 is primarily due to reduced insurance expense.

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

   The Combined Statement of Cash Flows reflects net cash provided by operating activities of $1,179,506 for Fiscal 2011, net cash used in operating activities of $847,826 for Fiscal 2010, and net cash provided by operating activities of $5,535,364 for Fiscal 2009.  The increase in net cash provided by operating activities for Fiscal 2011 was primarily attributable to increased sales in land and real estate development and decreased net loss.

   Material non-recurring cash items during the past three years include the sale of Applebees in Fort Collins, Colorado for $1,450,000 in Fiscal 2011 and the sale of 2,699 acres of land to The Conservation Fund for $6,875,000 in Fiscal 2009.

   On September 30, 2011, the Companies sold the Applebees located in Fort Collins, Colorado.  A portion of the proceeds from the sale were used to pay off the Deed of Trust and Security Agreement and Purchase Money Promissory Note held by The Stephen A. Grove Descendants Trust in the amount of $670,000, which encumbered the property.

   On July 29, 2010, the Companies entered into a Loan Agreement (the Loan) and Term Note (the Note) with the Bank in the amount of $2,600,000.  The principal amount of the Loan was to be paid in full on July 29, 2011.  Effective as




20




of July 29, 2011, the Companies entered into the Amended and Restated Note with the Bank (the Amended and Restated Note), which increased the loan by an aggregate of $2,000,000 to $4,600,000 and extended the maturity date of the Note from July 29, 2011 to December 31, 2011.  Interest is due and payable on a monthly basis and accrues at a variable rate equal (a) 3.00 percentage points above one-month LIBOR (3.25% at October 31, 2011.  The Amended and Restated Note is secured by (a) Amended and Restated Mortgages granted by the Companies and their wholly owned subsidiary, Northeast Land Company, on all of the Companies right, title and interest in and to the land and improvements at Jack Frost Mountain Ski Area and Big Boulder Ski Area, both of which are located in Kidder Township, Carbon County, Pennsylvania and Tunkhannock Township, Monroe County, Pennsylvania; (b) a first priority perfected security interest in all non-real estate assets of each of the Companies; and (c) the unlimited and unconditional guaranty and suretyship of Kimco Realty Corporation, the Companies majority shareholder.  The proceeds of the Loan were used to complete construction of certain residential units and for other working capital purposes.  The additional proceeds of the Amended and Restated Note are being used for working capital purposes. Subsequently, on December 15, 2011, a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the ski areas was used to pay the balance on this note.

  On May 22, 2009, the Companies entered into a Deed of Trust and Security Agreement and Real Estate Lien Note with Barbers Hill Bank, a branch of Anahuac National Bank, in the amount of $1,050,000, which encumbered certain real property owned by Blue Ridge located in Chambers County, Texas.  This property was leased to Jack in the Box Eastern Division, L.P. The loan had a term of five years and required monthly payments in the amount of $7,255 beginning June 22, 2009 and ending May 22, 2014, at which time the remaining principal balance and all interest accrued would become due and payable.  The proceeds of the loan were used to fund the completion of Building J of the Boulder Lake Village condominium project and general operations.  The interest rate was fixed at 6.75%.  Subsequently, on November 30, 2011 the Jack in The Box was sold and a portion of the proceeds were used to pay the balance of $1,009,002 on this note.

   On August 28, 2009, Blue Ridge, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Blue Ridge WNJ, LLC, entered into a mortgage and security agreement and a $4,038,000 Senior Secured Note with Wells Fargo Bank Northwest, N.A.  This note is secured by the mortgage, which encumbers certain real property known as the Walgreens Store located in Dover Township, Ocean County, New Jersey.  A portion of the proceeds of the loan were used to pay off an existing note outstanding with State Farm Bank, which previously encumbered the New Jersey Walgreens property.  The loan requires monthly interest and principal payments beginning September 15, 2009 and ending August 15, 2031.  The interest rate is fixed at 6.90%.

   On August 28, 2009, Blue Ridge, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Blue Ridge WMN, LLC, entered into a mortgage and security agreement and a $4,340,000 Senior Secured Note with Wells Fargo Bank Northwest, N.A.  This note is secured by the mortgage, which encumbers certain real property known as the Walgreens Store located in White Bear Lake, Washington County, Minnesota.  A portion of the proceeds of the loan were used to pay off an existing note outstanding with State Farm Bank which previously encumbered the Minnesota Walgreens property.  The loan requires monthly interest and principal payments beginning September 15, 2009 and ending August 15, 2031.  The interest rate is fixed at 6.90%.

   The Companies have a $9,000,000 line of credit with the Bank to fund real estate development with a construction sub-limit of $4,400,000 and site development sub-limit of $4,600,000.  The interest rate on this line of credit is equal to the greater of overnight LIBOR plus 3.5% or the daily 30-day LIBOR plus 3.5%, with an interest rate floor of 5.5%.  The Companies maintain an interest reserve account which was established in the third quarter of Fiscal 2009 as security for the payment of interest with the proceeds from a sale of land.  Interest is due and payable on a monthly basis and at October 31, 2011, the interest rate equaled 5.5% and the balance of the interest reserve escrow account was $114,351.  The remaining principal and any accrued interest is due and payable on September 30, 2012.  The Companies utilized a portion of the proceeds from the sale of four Boulder Lake Village condominium units and two Laurelwoods Longview Drive duplex units to repay $1,166,258 and $472,512 on the Construction and Site Development sublimits, respectively, during Fiscal 2011.  At October 31, 2011, $3,239,131 and $2,917,521 were outstanding on the Construction and Site Development sub-limits, respectively.  Subsequently, on December 15, 2011 a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the ski areas was used to repay $181,500 on the Construction sub-limit and to repay in full the then outstanding balance of $2,881,311 on the Site Development sub limit.

   The total principal amount outstanding under the aggregate line of credit will not exceed the lesser of (a) $9,000,000, or (b) 80% of the cost or appraised value of the units.  The loan agreement requires, among other things, that the Companies comply with consolidated debt to worth, debt service coverage and tangible net worth ratios.  The Companies have not




21




met the required debt service coverage ratio at October 31, 2011 and 2010 and have obtained waivers from the Bank for this covenant.

   The Companies also have a $3,100,000 line of credit with the Bank for general operations.  During Fiscal 2011 and 2010, we borrowed against the $3,100,000 line of credit in varying amounts with maximum total outstanding amounts of $2,981,012 and $2,893,306, respectively.  At October 31, 2011, $1,197,131 was outstanding on the $3,100,000 line at a 5.5% interest rate.  

   For Fiscal 2011, maintenance equipment for our golf course was the major capital expenditure.

 The pension contribution obligations are for Fiscal 2012.  Estimated funding obligations beyond the current fiscal year are not presented because the requirements fluctuate based on the performance of the plan assets, discount rate assumptions and demographics.

   Purchase obligations total $3,073,447 and consist of material contracts with multiple contractors all relating to real estate development.  Payments and adjustments made through October 31, 2011 total $3,063,289.

   We currently anticipate that the funds needed for future operations and to implement our land development strategy will be satisfied through operating cash, borrowed funds, public offerings or private placements of debt or equity and reinvested profits from completed and sold units or lots. We expect that with respect to land development, future construction will be conducted in phases, with the profits from each phase used to fund additional future construction. Construction is being implemented in phases as to reduce market risk associated with changing economic conditions.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES

None.

ITEM 9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements

As disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated September 24, 2012, the Audit Committee of the Boards of Directors of the Companies and management determined that previously issued financial statements for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, the three months ended January 31, 2011, the six months ended April 30, 2011 and the nine months ended July 31, 2011 contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2011 and in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended January 31, 2012, April 30, 2012 and July 31, 2012, as applicable, should no longer be relied upon and that we would restate the statements of operations for those periods.

a)  Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.  Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded in our Original Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2011, that, as of October 31, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.  Subsequent to the evaluation made in connection with the original filing and in connection with the restatement and as reflected in the filing of this Form 10-K/A, our management, including our Chief Executive Office and Chief Financial Officer, re-evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.  Based upon that re-evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that because of the material weaknesses in the internal control over financial reporting discussed below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of October 31, 2011.

The control deficiency related to the financial results from certain properties sold or held for sale by the Companies in 2011 which should have been, but were not, reported in discontinued operations for periods prior to the respective dates of their disposition.  Management previously determined that treating the properties as discontinued operations would not have had a material effect on the Companies statement of operations for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2011, and further analysis led management to the same conclusion with respect to the fiscal year ended October 31, 2010.  However, further analysis of some of the other periods covered by the statements of operations included in the periodic reports referenced above, particularly the statement of operations for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2009, led management to conclude that restatement would be appropriate.  Accordingly, the Companies are restating the financial statements for all relevant periods in the periodic reports referenced above to include the properties in discontinued operations.  The restatement will not affect the Companies net income (loss) for the relevant periods.  The properties include:

1.

approximately 1 acre of land in Fort Collins, Colorado on which an Applebees restaurant was located, sold by Blue Ridge on September 30, 2011;

2.

1.2 acres of land in Wallisville, Texas on which a Jack in the Box restaurant was located, sold by Blue Ridge on November 30, 2011;

3.

201 acres of land comprising the Jack Frost Mountain Ski Area, sold by Blue Ridge on December 15, 2011; and

4.

approximately 110 acres of land comprising the Big Boulder Ski Area, sold by Big Boulder on December 15, 2011.

b)

Managements Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Companies.  Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.



23




We assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2011 using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control Integrated Framework.  Based on this assessment, we concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of October 31, 2011.

It should be noted that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. As a result, there can be no assurance that a control system will succeed in preventing all possible instances of error and fraud.  The Companies disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and the conclusions of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are made at the reasonable assurance level.

The Companies independent auditors have not issued an attestation report on managements assessment of the Companies internal control over financial reporting.

 (c)  Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

In connection with the identification of the errors related to our financial statements described above and in Note 2 to our restated combined financial statements, we have identified the following deficiency that constituted a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting for the periods described above:

·

We did not establish an appropriate review process to determine when the financial results for certain properties that were sold or are held for sale should be treated as discontinued operations.

Accounting errors resulting from the material weakness described above, resulted in the need to restate our annual and interim combined financial statements.

Remediation of Material Weakness

To address the material weakness, we have undertaken the following remedial steps. Management has revised the internal control procedure related to the Financial Reporting Cycle.  The quarterly Disclosure Committee meeting will review the adequate criteria of classifying any long-lived asset to Held for Sale.  Review will include materiality analysis for all periods presented in the financial report and a determination made as to whether or not separate presentation of discontinued operations is required.

We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in the areas affected by the material weakness described above and employ any additional tools and resources as appropriate to provide reasonable assurance that our financial statements are fairly stated in all material respects.

As previously disclosed, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended October 31, 2011 that materially affected, or was reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.  As described above, we have taken steps subsequently to the period covered by this Second Amendment to remedy the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm





Boards of Directors and Shareholders

Blue Ridge Real Estate Company

and Big Boulder Corporation


We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of Blue Ridge Real Estate Company and Subsidiaries and Big Boulder Corporation and Subsidiaries as of October 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related combined statements of operations, changes in shareholders equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended October 31, 2011.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companies management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.


We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Companies are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companies internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Blue Ridge Real Estate Company and Subsidiaries and Big Boulder Corporation and Subsidiaries at October 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended October 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


As discussed in Note 3 to the combined financial statements, the Companies have restated the October 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 combined financial statements.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Basis of Combination:

   The accompanying combined financial statements include the accounts of Blue Ridge Real Estate Company (Blue Ridge) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (Northeast Land Company, Jack Frost Mountain Company, Boulder Creek Resort Company, Moseywood Construction Company, Jack Frost National Golf Course, Inc., Blue Ridge Acquisition Company, BRRE Holdings, Inc., Coursey Commons Shopping Center, LLC, Coursey Creek, LLC, Cobble Creek, LLC, Flower Fields Motel, LLC, Blue Ridge WMN, LLC and Blue Ridge WNJ, LLC) and Big Boulder Corporation (Big Boulder) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (Lake Mountain Company and BBC Holdings, Inc.) (collectively, the Companies).  Under a Security Combination Agreement between Blue Ridge and Big Boulder and under the by-laws of both Companies, shares of the Companies are combined in unit certificates, each certificate representing concurrent ownership of the same number of shares of each company; shares of each company may be transferred only together with an equal number of shares of the other company. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.

Revenue Recognition:

   Revenues are derived from a wide variety of sources, including sales of real estate, management of investment properties, home construction, property management services, golf activities, timbering and leasing activities. Generally, revenues are recognized as services are performed, except as noted below.

Land and Resort Homes:

   The Companies recognize income on the disposition of real estate using the full accrual method.  The full accrual method is appropriate at closing when the sales contract has been signed, the buyer has arranged permanent financing and the risks and rewards associated with ownership have been transferred to the buyer.  In the few instances that the Companies finance the sale, more than 20% down payment is required.  The remaining financed purchase price is not subject to subordination. Down payments of less than 20% are accounted for as deposits.

   The costs of developing land for resale as resort homes and the costs of constructing certain related amenities are allocated to the specific parcels to which the costs relate. Such costs, as well as the costs of construction of the resort homes, are charged to operations as sales occur. Land held for resale and resort homes under construction are stated at lower of cost or market.

Custom Home Construction:

   The Companies recognize revenue and costs on custom home construction using the percentage of completion method of accounting when construction is beyond the preliminary stage, the buyer is committed to the extent of being unable to require a refund except for non-delivery, the sales proceeds are collectible and the aggregate sales proceeds and the total cost of the project can be reasonably estimated.  Total estimated revenues and construction costs are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the combined financial statements in the period in which the revisions are determined.

Timbering Revenues:

   Timbering revenues from stumpage contracts are recognized at the time a stumpage contract is signed, at which time the risk of ownership has been passed to the buyer at a fixed, determinable cost.  Reasonable assurance of collectibility has been determined by the date of signing, and the few obligations of the Companies have already been met.  Therefore, full accrual recognition at the time of contract execution is appropriate under SAB 104 guidance.

Land and Land Development Costs:

   The Companies capitalize as land and land development costs, the original acquisition cost, direct construction and development costs, property taxes, interest incurred on costs related to land under development and other related costs (engineering, surveying, landscaping, etc.) until the property reaches its intended use.  The cost of sales for individual parcels of real estate or condominium units within a project is determined using the relative sales value method.  Revenue is recognized upon signing closing documents.   At closing a binding contract is in effect, the buyer has arranged for permanent financing and the Companies are assured of payment in full.  Also at this time, the risks and rewards associated



F-8




with ownership have been transferred to the buyer.  Selling expenses are recorded when incurred.  In Fiscal 2010, the Jack Frost National Golf Course was reclassified from land held for recreation to land held for development.  The reclassification was based on managements current determination to market the golf course and the planned residential development surrounding the golf course together as a parcel to a national developer.  The Summer Recreation Operations segment no longer exists as a result of the reclassification.

Land Improvements, Buildings, Equipment and Depreciation:

   Land improvements, buildings and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation, including amortization of equipment under capital lease is provided principally using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as set forth below:

Land improvements

 10-30 years

Buildings and improvements

   3-40 years

Equipment and furnishings

   3-20 years

   Upon sale or retirement of depreciable property, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the related accounts, and resulting gains or losses are reflected in income.

   Interest, real estate taxes, and insurance costs, including those costs associated with holding unimproved land, are charged to expense as incurred. Interest cost incurred during construction of facilities is capitalized as part of the cost of such facilities.

   Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense, and major renewals and betterments are added to property accounts.

Land Held for Investment:

   Land held for investment is stated at cost and is principally unimproved.  Portions of this land are leased on an annual basis primarily to hunting and sportsman clubs.  Real estate taxes and insurance are expensed as incurred.  In the second quarter of 2011, Land held for recreation was reclassified to Land held for investment, principally unimproved. The 311 acres that were reclassified, house our ski areas which were leased to a third party operator during Fiscal 2011.  Subsequently, on December 15, 2011 the ski areas were sold.  Reported interest income principally relates to this direct financing lease.  Operating activities relating to this land are part of the rental income segment.  Real estate taxes and insurance were the responsibility of the operator.

Long-Lived Assets Held for Sale:

   Long-lived assets held for sale primarily relate to housing units constructed in real estate developments projects.  The Companies classify assets as a long-lived asset held for sale upon the completion of construction.  The carrying value of the assets held for sale are stated at the lower of carrying value or fair market value less costs to sell.  The impairment loss for long-lived assets held for sale is the difference between their carrying value and their fair value less cost to sell.  Real estate taxes, insurance, utilities and any related interest are expensed upon completion of construction.  Also included in long-lived assets held for sale at October 31, 2011 is the Jack in the Box, which was sold on November 30, 2011.

Investment in Direct Financing Leases:

   The Companies have capitalized as the net investment in direct financing leases, the portion of the leased premises pertaining to Jack Frost Mountain and Big Boulder ski areas, which meets the criteria for accounting for these lease transactions as direct financing leases.  The accounting was based on estimates and assumptions about the fair values and estimated useful lives of the leased properties, as well as the collectibility of lease payments and recoverability of the unguaranteed residual value of the leased properties.  Management had periodically reviewed the net investment indirect financing leases for events or changes in circumstances that could impact collectibility, and recoverability of the unguaranteed residual value of leased properties and at October 31, 2011 wrote down the net investment indirect financing lease to the amount expected to be recoverable.  Subsequently, on December 15, 2011 the ski areas were sold.

Accounts and Mortgages Receivable:

   Accounts receivable are reported at net realizable value.  Accounts or a portion thereof are written off when they are determined to be uncollectible based upon managements assessment of individual accounts.  An allowance for doubtful accounts, if deemed necessary, is estimated based upon a review of individual accounts.  The allowance amount was $1,222 at October 31, 2011 and $1,192 at October 31, 2010.




F-9




   The Companies account for mortgages receivable on a cost basis.  Interest income is recorded on a monthly basis.  Late payment fees are charged on overdue payments.  Mortgages receivable are evaluated at origination and monitored on an ongoing basis for credit worthiness.  Mortgages receivable are considered fully collectible by management and accordingly no allowance for losses is considered necessary.  Any mortgage 90 days past due is reviewed by management for collectibility.  Mortgages receivable were $2,920 and $175,687 at October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Impairment:

   The Companies review their long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable, which is primarily due to the state of the industry and the economy.  In that event, the Companies calculate the expected future net cash flows to be generated by the asset.  If those net future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized in operating (loss) profit.  The impairment loss is the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the asset.  The impairment loss is recognized in the period incurred.

Deferred Income:

   Deferred income includes dues, rents and deposits on land or home sales. Rents that are not yet earned relate to the Companies commercial properties that have been paid in advance, and dues are related to memberships in the Companies hunting and fishing clubs and golf club memberships paid in advance. The Companies recognize revenue related to the hunting and fishing clubs and golf course memberships over the period that the dues cover.  The Companies recognize revenue related to the fishing club over a five month period, May through September, and the golf course over a seven month period, April through October.  Deposits are required on land and home sales.

   Also included in deferred income is a reimbursement from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation for the cost of a sewer line.  Income will be recognized over the depreciation period.  This sewer line has not yet been placed in service.

Comprehensive Income (Loss):

   The Companies comprehensive income (loss) differs from net income (loss) due to changes in the funded status of the Companies defined benefit pension plan (see Note 10).  The Companies have elected to disclose comprehensive income and loss in its Combined Statements of Changes in Shareholders Equity.

Income Taxes:

   The Companies account for income taxes utilizing the asset and liability method of recognizing the tax consequence of transactions that have been recognized for financial reporting or income tax purposes.  Among other things, this method requires current recognition of the effect of changes in statutory tax rates on previously provided deferred taxes.  For federal income tax purposes, Blue Ridge and its subsidiaries and Big Boulder and its subsidiaries each file as consolidated entities. State income taxes are reported on a separate company basis. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary to reduce tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

   The Companies policies for Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes in an enterprises financial statements, requires a review of all tax positions and applies a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold to determine whether any part of an individual tax position should be recognized in an enterprises financial statements. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon the ultimate settlement with the taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information.

Advertising Costs:

   Advertising costs are primarily related to real estate development and golf course operation.  Advertising costs are expensed when incurred and the advertising expense for Fiscal 2011, Fiscal 2010 and Fiscal 2009 was $25,739, $43,441, and $87,733, respectively.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions:

   The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported




F-10




amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the combined financial statements in the period in which the revisions are determined.

Statement of Cash Flows:

   For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Companies consider cash equivalents to be all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when acquired.

Concentration of Credit Risk:

   Financial instruments which potentially subject the Companies to concentration of credit risk consist principally of temporary cash investments. The Companies temporary cash investments are held by financial institutions. The Companies have not experienced any losses related to these investments.  At October 31, 2011, the Companies had no cash in excess of the FDIC limits.

Earnings Per Share:

   Basic earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding.  Diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of stock options, if applicable.

Business Segments:

   The Companies currently operate in two business segments, which consist of the Real Estate Management/Rental Operations and Land Resource Management segments.  The Companies previously operated in three business segments, the third being Summer Recreation Operations.  Effective April 30, 2010, results of operations for the golf course were reclassified to the Land Resource Management segment from the Summer Recreation Operations segment.  The Summer Recreation Operations segment no longer exists as a result of the reclassification.  Financial information about our segments can be found in Note 17.

Stock Compensation:

   The Companies recognize as compensation expense an amount equal to the grant date fair value of the stock options issued over the required service period.  Compensation cost is measured using the modified prospective approach.

   The fair value of each option award is estimated at the date of grant using an option pricing model.  Expected volatilities are based upon historical volatilities of the Companies stock.  The Companies use historical data to estimate option exercises and employee terminations with the valuation model.  The expected term of options granted is derived from the output of the valuation model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding.  The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

Discontinued Operations:

   A component of the Companies is classified as a discontinued operation when (i) the operations and cash flows of the component of the Companies can be clearly distinguished and have been or will be eliminated from our ongoing operations; (ii) the component has either been disposed of or is classified as held for sale; and (iii) we will not have any significant continuing involvement in the operations of the component of the Companies after the disposal transactions.  Significant judgments are involved in determining whether a component meets the criteria for discontinued operations reporting and the period in which these criteria are met.

   If a component of the Companies is reported as a discontinued operation, the results of operations through the date of sale, including any gain or loss recognized on the disposition, are presented on a separate line of the income statement.

Reclassification:

     Effective as of April 30, 2010, results of operations for the golf course were reclassified to the Land Resource Management segment from the Summer Recreation Operations segment.  The reclassification was based on managements current determination to market the golf course and the planned residential development surrounding the golf course together as a parcel to a national developer.  The Summer Recreation Operations segment no longer exists as a result of the reclassification.  This was also reflected for balance sheet purposes, as the golf course cost basis was transferred from land held for recreation to land and land development costs.  



F-11




   In the second quarter of 2011, Land held for recreation was reclassified to Land held for investment, principally unimproved.  The 311 acres that were reclassified house our ski areas which were leased to a third party operator during Fiscal 2011.  Subsequently, on December 15, 2011 the ski areas were sold.  Operating activities relating to this land are part of the rental income segment.

   The Companies report the results of discontinued operations as a separate component of income on the combined statements of operations under the caption Discontinued operations.  This reporting resulted in certain reclassifications of the 2010 and 2009 financial statement amounts.

   Certain amounts in the Fiscal 2010 and Fiscal 2009 combined financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the Fiscal 2011 presentation.

New Accounting Pronouncements:

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements as codified in FASB Accounting Standards Codification ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820). ASC 820 provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. ASC 820 also responds to investors requests for expanded information about the extent to which a company measures assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. The Company adopted ASC 820 with respect to financial instruments effective for its fiscal year beginning November 1, 2008. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 157-2 (FSP 157-2) (codified in ASC 820) which delays the effective date of ASC 820 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). FSP 157-2 applies to, but is not limited to, long-lived assets (asset groups) measured at fair value for an impairment assessment (i.e., inventory impairment assessments). FSP 157-2 defers the effective date for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities of ASC 820 for the Companies to November 1, 2009. The Companies adoption of ASC 820 related to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities did not have a material impact on the Companies combined financial statements.

In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-5, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820)  Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, (ASU 2009-5), which amends ASC 820 to provide additional guidance to clarify the measurement of liabilities at fair value in the absence of observable market information. ASU 2009-5 was effective for the Companies beginning November 1, 2009. The adoption of ASU 2009-5 did not have a material impact on the Companies combined financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (ASU 2010-06). ASU 2010-06 requires certain new disclosures and clarifies some existing disclosure requirements regarding fair value measurement as set forth in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Subtopic 820-10. ASU 2010-06 amends ASC Subtopic 820-10 to now require that (1) a reporting entity disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers; (2) in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs, a reporting entity present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements, and (3) a reporting entity provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-06 did not have a material impact on the Companies combined financial statements.

In December 2008, the FASB issued FSP SFAS No. 132(R)-1, Employers Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets. The disclosure requirements of this FSP are included in ASC Topic 715  Compensation-Retirement Benefit (Topic 715) as pending transition guidance that require the disclosure of more information about investment allocation decisions, major categories of plan assets, including concentrations of risk and fair value measurements, and the fair value techniques and inputs used to measure plan assets. The disclosures about plan assets required by Topic 715 must be provided for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009. The adoption of Topic 715 did not have a material impact on the Companies combined financial statements.

In December 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-16, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets (ASU 2009-16), which is an amendment of ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing.  ASU 2009-16 requires more information about the transfers of financial assets.  More specifically, ASU 2009-16 eliminates the concept of a qualified special purpose entity, changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and enhances the information reported to users of financial statements.  ASU 2009-16 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after November 15, 2009. ASU 2009-16 is effective for the Companies financial statements for fiscal years beginning November 1, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2009-16 did not have a material impact on the Companies combined financial statements.

In December 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-17, Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities (ASU 2009-17). ASU 2009-17 changes how a reporting entity determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated. The determination of whether a reporting entity is required to consolidate another entity is based on, among other things, the other entitys purpose and design and the reporting entitys ability to direct the activities of the other entity that most significantly impact the other entitys economic performance. The new standard will require a number of new disclosures, including additional disclosures about the reporting entitys involvement with variable interest entities and any significant changes in risk exposure due to that involvement. A reporting entity will be required to disclose how its involvement with a variable interest entity affects the reporting entitys financial statements. ASU 2009-17 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of ASU 2009-17 did not have a material impact on the Companies combined financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, Statement of Comprehensive Income (ASU 2011-05), which requires entities to present net income and other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive, statements of net income and other comprehensive income.  The adoption of this guidance, which relates to presentation only, is not expected to have a material impact on the Companies combined financial statements.  ASU 2011-05 will be effective for the Companies fiscal year beginning November 1, 2012.

2.  DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS:

   On September 30, 2011, the Applebees located in Fort Collins, Colorado was sold and as a result the operating activity for the years ending October 31, 2011 and 2010 is being reported as a discontinued operation.  The operating results of Applebees were previously reported in the Rental Operations of the combined statements of operations.  At October 31, 2011, there were no remaining assets or liabilities related to Applebees.

   On November 30, 2011, the Jack in the Box located in Wallisville, Texas was sold and as a result the operating activity for the years ending October 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 is being reported as a discontinued operation.  The operating results of Jack in the Box were previously reported in the Rental Operations of the combined statements of operations.   At October 31, 2011, there was $1,814,573 of assets related to Jack in the Box included in assets of discontinued operation and $1,010,384 of debt included in liabilities of discontinued operations on the Companies combined balance sheet.

   On December 15, 2011, the Jack Frost Mountain and Big Boulder ski areas were sold and as a result the operating activity for the years ending October 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 is being reported as a discontinued operation.  The ski areas had been leased to an operator and a portion of the leased premises had been capitalized as net investment in direct financing leases. Therefore a portion of the operating results were previously reported in the Rental Operations and a portion of the operating results were previously reported in the Interest and Other Income line of the combined statements of operations.  The sale transaction resulted in a loss, therefore a valuation allowance was previously reported as impairment expense in the Land Resource Management segment of the combined statements of operations.  At October 31, 2011, there was $8,955,649 of assets related to the two ski areas included in assets of discontinued operations on the Companies combined balance sheet and there were no liabilities.

3.  RESTATEMENT

   In the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2012 Management determined to restate the financial statements for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, the three months ended January 31, 2011, the six months ended April 30, 2011 and the nine months ended July 2011.  The restatement is to reclassify the financial results from certain properties sold by the Companies in 2011 which should have been, but were not, reported in discontinued operations for the periods prior to the respective dates of their disposition.  The properties include:

1.

approximately 1 acre of land in Fort Collins, Colorado on which an Applebees restaurant was located, sold by Blue Ridge on September 30, 2011;

2.

1.2 acres of land in Wallisville, Texas on which a Jack in the Box restaurant was located, sold by Blue Ridge on November 30, 2011;

3.

201 acres of land comprising the Jack Frost Mountain Ski Area, sold by Blue Ridge on December 15, 2011; and

4.

approximately 110 acres of land comprising the Big Boulder Ski Area, sold by Big Boulder on December 15, 2011.

   The restatement did not impact the Companies total net (loss) income for the relevant periods.  The following are the previously reported and restated balances on the combined balance sheets as of October 2011 and 2010 and the combined statement of operations for the years ended October 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009:

5.  LAND AND LAND DEVELOPMENT COSTS:

Land and land development costs as of October 31, 2011 and 2010 consist of the following:


10/31/2011

10/31/2010

Land unimproved designated for development

$10,901,859 

$11,021,647 

Residential development

5,084,262 

5,906,189 

Infrastructure development

4,656,666 

4,482,901 


$20,642,787 

$21,410,737 

The decrease in land improvements designated for development ($119,788) was due to two land sales in Fiscal 2011.  The carrying value of land improvements designated for development reflects an impairment allowance of $73,000 in Fiscal 2011 and Fiscal 2010.  The decrease in the residential development was primarily due to the sale of two condominium units at Boulder Lake Village ($891,693) and the transfer to assets held for sale of three condominium units at Boulder Lake Village ($1,196,693), net of their impairment allowance of $859,749, which was offset by additions of $406,710.  The increase in infrastructure development cost of $173,765 was primarily related to the costs associated with the Big Boulder wastewater treatment plan upgrade.  The carrying value of the infrastructure development assets reflects an impairment allowance of $1,900,000 in Fiscal 2011 and Fiscal 2010 and the carrying value of the residential development assets reflects an impairment allowance of $0 in Fiscal 2011 and $859,749 in Fiscal 2010.

6.  ABANDONMENT OF LAND DEVELOPMENT COSTS:

In Fiscal 2009, two capital projects previously under development were abandoned as the Companies determined that these investments in the projects were not expected to be recoverable due to environmental regulation changes. The major expenditures abandoned included permits, surveys, architectural and legal fees and capitalized costs including labor, interest and property taxes.  

The following is a summary of the planned residential developments (PRD) that were abandoned:

   During Fiscal 2011, the $9,000,000 line of credit mortgage had a site-development sublimit of $4,600,000 and a construction sub-limit of $4,400,000.  At October 31, 2011, the Companies had utilized $6,156,652 of this line which bears interest at the greater of overnight LIBOR plus 3.5% or the daily 30-day LIBOR plus 3.5%, in all cases at a minimum interest rate of 5.5% (such interest rate was 5.5% at October 31, 2011). The interest reserve account included in cash held in escrow, which was established in 2009 as security for the payment of interest on the mortgage note, and had a balance of $114,351 at October 31, 2011.  Subsequently, on December 15, 2011 the ski areas were sold. Sale proceeds of $3,062,811 were utilized to pay this line of credit and $325,000 was deposited into the interest reserve account.

   At October 31, 2011, Blue Ridge had utilized $1,197,131 of its $3,100,000 general line of credit, which is an on demand, revolving line with no maturity date.

   The Companies goal is to conservatively invest the plan assets in high-grade securities with a minimum risk of market fluctuation.  Based on the allocation of our assets between equity, fixed income and money market funds, we estimate our long term rate of return to be approximately 7.5%.

   Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs when measuring fair value.

   The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

   Level 1 Fair value is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible to the Plan for identical assets.  These generally provide the most reliable evidence and are used to measure fair value whenever available.

   Level 2 Fair value is based on significant inputs, other than level 1 inputs, that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset through corroboration with observable market data.  Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices in active markets for similar assets, quoted market prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets, and other observable inputs.

   Level 3 Fair value would be based on significant unobservable inputs.  Examples of valuation methodologies that would result in level 3 classification include option pricing models, discounted cash flows, and other similar techniques.

   The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value.  There have been no changes in the methodologies used at October 31, 2011 and 2010.

   Money market fund is valued at cost, which approximates fair value.

   Common collective trust funds are valued based upon the unit values of such collective trust funds held by the Plan at year end.  Unit values are based on the fair value of the underlying assets of the fund.  The fair value of the level 2 funds are derived from inputs principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.  Included in the common collective trust funds is a level 3 GIC Portfolio which includes both traditional and separate account guaranteed investment contracts (GICs) as well as synthetic GICs.  The traditional and separate account GICs are valued by calculating the sum of the present values of all projected future cash flows of each investment.  The synthetic GIC wrapper contracts are valued by determining the replacement cost of the wrapper contract and the present value of the contractually obligated payments in the original wrapper contract.  Debt securities underlying synthetic GICs are traded primarily in the over-the-counter (OTC) markets and are valued at the latest available price in the OTC market or on the basis of values obtained by an independent pricing service.

   The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

17.  BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION:

   The following information is presented in accordance with the accounting pronouncement regarding disclosures about segments of an enterprise and related information".  The Companies' business segments were determined from the Companies' internal organization and management reporting, which are based primarily on differences in services.  

   Real Estate Management/Rental Operations

   Real Estate Management/Rental Operations consists of: investment properties leased to others located in Eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Minnesota and Louisiana; recreational club activities; services to the trusts that operate resort residential communities; sales of investment properties; and rental of land and land improvements, which includes the leasing of our two ski areas located in the Pocono Mountains of Northeastern Pennsylvania.  

   Land Resource Management

   Land Resource Management consists of: land sales; land purchases; timbering operations; the Jack Frost National Golf Course; and a real estate development division.  Timbering operations consist of selective timbering on our land holdings.  Contracts are entered into for parcels that have had the timber selectively marked.  We rely on the advice of our forester, who is engaged on a consulting basis and who receives a commission on each stumpage contract, for the timing and selection of certain parcels of land for timbering.  Our forester gives significant attention to protecting the environment and retaining the value of these parcels for future timber harvests.  The Jack Frost National Golf Course is managed by Billy Casper Golf, LLC, an unaffiliated third party.  The real estate development division is responsible for the residential land development activities which include overseeing the construction of single and multi-family homes and development of infrastructure.

   Funds expended to date for real estate development have been primarily for infrastructure improvements and home construction in the Laurelwoods II and Boulder Lake Village communities.  Construction of 22 single family homes and four duplex homes in Laurelwoods II has been completed.  The construction of 18 condominium units within Building J at Boulder Lake Village on Big Boulder Lake has been completed as well.  Other expenditures for our development projects in the planning phases include fees for architects, engineers, consultants, studies and permits.

21.  PER SHARE DATA:

   Earnings per share (EPS) is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  The calculation of diluted EPS assumes weighted average options have been exercised to purchase shares of common stock in the relevant period, net of assumed repurchases using the treasury stock method. For Fiscal 2011, 2010 and 2009, all outstanding unexercised stock options would be excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS because the exercise price of all such options exceeded the market price of the Companies common stock.  As a result, the calculation of diluted EPS has been excluded from the table below since diluted EPS for these periods is equal to EPS.

    Weighted average basic shares, taking into consideration shares issued, weighted average options used in calculating EPS and treasury shares repurchased, for Fiscal 2011, 2010 and 2009 are as follows:
