   (a) Operating profit is earnings before interest expense,
       other income, interest income and income taxes.

(3)  Spin-off of Real Estate Business.   On August 2, 2000, the
Board of Directors approved a resolution to delay consummation of
the previously approved reorganization of the Company until some
date beyond July 1, 2001.  The reorganization will require
reauthorization by the Board.  The reorganization would result in
spinning off to its shareholders a new company which would
include the real estate business, while retaining the
transportation business in Patriot Transportation Holding, Inc.
The Company has obtained a tax ruling from the Internal Revenue
Service  that  confirms  that  the proposed transaction will be
tax-free to shareholders.  Management has recommended delaying
the spin-off due to the turbulent conditions in the trucking
industry and the need to complete an internal information system
for its Transportation Group.   The Company also wants to provide
additional time for development of its new agent/owner-operator
subsidiary.

(4)  Name Change Approval.   At the annual meeting on February 2,
2000, the shareholders approved a proposal to amend Article I of
the Company's Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the
Company to Patriot Transportation Holding, Inc.   The name change
was effective on March 1,2000 upon filing of articles of
amendment to Articles of Incorporation with the State of Florida.



(5)  Contingent Liabilities.  The Company and its subsidiaries
are subject to legal proceedings and claims arising out of their
businesses that cover a wide range of matters.  Additional
information concerning these matters is presented in Note 11 to
the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's
1999 Annual Report to stockholders.  Such information is
incorporated herein by reference.

Operating Results

For the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2000,
consolidated revenues increased 22.2% and 10.1%, respectively,
over the same period last year.  The Transportation segment
revenues for the third quarter and first nine months increased
24.9% and 15.0%, respectively, due primarily to an increase in
miles hauled, revenues from the new agent/owner-operator
operation, and a modest increase in pricing over the same quarter
last year.  Real estate revenues increased 5.7% for the third
quarter and decreased 13.9% for the first nine months.  The
increase in real estate revenues for the third quarter was due to
higher royalties and rental income partially offset by reduced
real estate and timber sales.   There were $27,000 of real estate
and timber sales during the third quarter as compared to $158,000
same quarter last year.  The real estate revenue decrease for the
nine months was primarily due to reduced sales of real estate and
timber sales.  During the first nine months of 2000, the Company
had revenues from real estate and timber sales of $342,000 as
compared to $2,384,000 same period last year.

Consolidated gross profit increased $303,000 or 6.9% for the
third quarter and decreased $2,203,000 or 15.4% for the first
nine months as compared to last year.   Gross profit in
Transportation increased $357,000 for the third quarter and
decreased $608,000 for the first nine months.  The decrease in
gross profit for the nine months for the Transportation Group was
primarily attributable to sharply higher fuel costs, a tight
labor market for drivers resulting in increased costs to hire and
retain personnel and higher depreciation expense resulting from
an expanded and upgraded tractor fleet.

Gross profit in the Real Estate segment decreased $54,000 for the
third quarter and decreased $1,595,000 for the first nine months.
Real estate gross profit excluding real estate sales and timber
sales increased $77,000 for the third quarter and $447,000 for
the first nine months.  Real estate gross profit was negatively
impacted by reduced real estate and timber sales discussed above.

Selling, general and administrative expense increased $422,000
for the third quarter and increased $783,000 for the first nine
months from the same periods last year.   Selling, general and
administrative expense as a percent of sales was 9.6% for the
third quarter as compared to 9.6% last year and 9.8% for the
first nine months as compared to 9.5% last year.  The increase
was primarily attributable to increased administrative expenses
related to formation of a third-party agent/owner-operator
transportation operation, legal and accounting fees associated
with the proposed spin-off of the real estate business, increased
bad debt expense and other legal expenses.

Interest expense increased $340,000 for the third quarter and
increased $841,000 for the first nine months due primarily to an
increase in the average debt outstanding and an increase in the
average interest rate.

Income tax expense decreased $178,000 for the third quarter and
$1,494,000 for the first nine months as a result of reduced
income before taxes.   Income tax expense as a percentage of
income before income tax expense was 39% for all periods.

Summary and Outlook

A tight labor market combined with higher fuel costs and interest
rates will continue to make for a challenging transportation
environment.   Aggressive steps are being taken to increase unit
revenues and to counteract increased expenses within the
Transportation Group.   The Company's  third-party
agent/owner-operator startup, Patriot Transportation, Inc.,
continues to make progress against its plan.

The Company's operating real estate properties are 94% leased and
the industrial market in Baltimore-Washington area remains
favorable for development opportunities with low vacancy and
steady rent levels.   The Real Estate Group continues to actively
move forward with its efforts to develop additional properties
and secure well-located sites for future development.

For information on the proposed reorganization of the Company see
Note 3.

Financial Condition

For first nine months of 2000, net cash flows from operating
activities were $5,607,000, which along with issuing additional
long and short term debt funded the Company's investing
activities of $15,396,000 and the repurchase of shares.   For the
first nine months of 1999, net cash flows from operating
activities were $10,299,000 which along with issuing additional
short term debt funded the Company's investing activities of
$12,474,000 and the repurchase of shares.

The Company continues to maintain its financial condition with
sufficient resources to meet anticipated capital expenditures and
other operating requirements.   The Company's revolving credit
facility will convert to a term loan if not modified by November
15, 2000.   The Company is negotiating an extension of the
revolving and term phase of the existing credit agreement with
its bank group and anticipates that it will complete the
extension and/or modification of its credit facility before the
revolving credit facility converts to a term loan.

Other

During fiscal 1999, the transportation segment's ten largest
customers accounted for approximately 33% of transportation's
revenue.  The loss of one or more of these customers could have
an adverse effect on the Company's revenue and income.

While the Company is affected by environmental regulations, such
regulations are not expected to have a major effect on the
Company's capital expenditures or operating results.  Additional
information concerning environmental matters is presented in Note
11 to the consolidated financial statements included in the
Company's 1999 Annual Report to stockholders.  Such information
is incorporated herein by reference.
