2012 Stratus 10-K R223 7 Annual Report and Form 10-K TO MY FELLOW STOCKHOLDERS: 2017 was an exciting year for Stratus Properties. We increased net income to $3.9 million, $0.47 per share, reduced consolidated debt by 24%, recognized a significant portion of the deferred gain on the sale of The Oaks at Lakeway, and returned $8.1 million in capital to stockholders by way of a $1.00 per share special cash dividend. Our sale of The Oaks at Lakeway demonstrates the strength of our development strategy, which we continued to advance throughout 2017 with increased capital expenditure investments and proactive development, leasing and marketing activities. Moving forward in 2018, we intend to continue focusing on our active development plan, which has played a significant role in Stratus Properties generating a total stockholder return of 262% over the last five years, which far exceeded comparable returns from peer real estate companies (39%), the Dow Jones U.S. Real Estate Index (56%) and the S&P 500 (101%). Our expansive development portfolio consists of existing and future commercial, multi-family and single-family projects, several of which are in the development stage. In 2017, we completed construction of West Killeen Market, an HEB-anchored retail development in Killeen, on schedule and under budget and made significant progress in advancing our other development projects by: • securing project financing and commencing construction of Lantana Place, a mixed-use development in southwest Austin; • securing project financing and commencing construction of Jones Crossing, an HEB-anchored mixed use development in College Station; • securing project financing and commencing construction of Santal Phase II, a multi-family development located adjacent to Santal Phase I in Barton Creek; • securing final building permits for the St. Mary, a new multi-family development we plan to construct in Circle C; and • advancing development plans for Magnolia, a new HEB-anchored retail development project we plan to construct in Magnolia. We also secured approval from the City of Magnolia and the State of Texas for a new Municipal Utility District (MUD), which will allow us to recoup approximately $26 million of future road and utility infrastructure costs over the life of the Magnolia development project. We believe our active development plan benefits from a diverse portfolio of retail, residential, office, entertainment, and hotel properties. In particular, steadier cash flows from our Leasing, Entertainment and Hotel segments support our longer term development projects. Our Leasing segment includes Santal Phase I, a garden-style apartment complex in the upscale Barton Creek area that was completed in 2016 and that is now 95% leased. Based on the success of Santal Phase I, we elected to develop Santal Phase II, which will add 212 units to the overall complex. Our Hotel segment includes the W Austin Hotel in downtown Austin, which generated revenue per available room of $253 in 2017, fourth overall among all Texas hotels, despite increased competition from new hotels. Our Entertainment segment includes the world famous Austin City Limits Live music venue, site of the longest running music series in American history, and 3TEN ACL Live, a popular music venue that we opened in 2016 to host more intimate shows. 2017 was a record year for ACL Live, with more than 221,000 tickets sold for 224 events, including sold-out shows by Dave Chappelle, Sting, The Zac Brown Band, Don Henley, Willie Nelson and Diana Ross. We believe that our full-cycle development process creates a strong synergy across our operating segments, which enables us to generate high returns for our fellow stockholders. The majority of our real estate assets are located in the Austin metropolitan area, which continues to experience significant population growth and development. We continue to successfully leverage the expertise and relationships that we have developed through our strong position in the Austin market to expand our developments to other select, fast-growing Texas markets such as Killeen, Magnolia and College Station. Our expansion beyond Austin has been facilitated by our positive working relationships with our tenants, lenders, regulators, community stakeholders and government officials. In our view, our ability to foster these key relationships in the communities where we invest has been and will continue to be one of our greatest strengths. We would like to thank our employees for their commitment and hard work, which has contributed to our important progress during 2017. Looking ahead to 2018, we plan to continue our successful program of actively developing our properties and strategically marketing and selling them at appropriate times to maximize stockholder value. We remain confident in the attractiveness of our W Austin Hotel, Santal multi-family development and ACL Live and 3TEN ACL Live entertainment venues, and our ability to use cash flows generated by these assets to support our development projects. We will continue leveraging our competitive strengths to take advantage of favorable economic conditions in Texas generally, and Austin in particular. We will benefit from the astute guidance and oversight of our Board of Directors as we continue to evaluate markets, invest in new developments and capture opportunities to enhance the value of our properties to create value for shareholders.

  • Hyde Park: an Early Suburban Development in Austin, Texas (1891- 1941)
    HYDE PARK: AN EARLY SUBURBAN DEVELOPMENT IN AUSTIN, TEXAS (1891- 1941) Hyde Park, one of the most desirable neighborhoods of modern Austin, is nearing the hundredth anniversary of its founding. The legacy of its settlement and growth remind us of the important role Hyde Park has played in the history of Austin; a role which can be better understood and evaluated following a discussion of the city's development. Austin has served as Texas' seat of government since shortly after the city's founding in 1838. The city was established as the result of an internal struggle among the leaders of the newly formed Republic of Texas, which gained independence from Mexico in 1836. Many believed Houston or some other established town should be selected as the capital of Texas. Intense competition and rivalry developed for that designation and the attendant financial and political opportunities it would provide. As a compromise, founding fathers decided that the creation of an entirely new community was the most appropriate solution. As president of the Republic, Mirabeau B. Lamer selected Waterloo, small dispersed settlement on the Colorado River, as the new capital of Texas. Edwin Waller surveyed the townsite, including a grandly sited capitol square atop a hill that terminated a broad thoroughfare (Congress Avenue) extending from the river. Named in honor of Stephen F. Austin, the town became reality as the first lots were sold on August 1, 1839. Despite the isolated location near the frontier, the designation fueled the new capital's growth and its population increased to 856 by 1840. Numerous government offices opened providing the foundation for the local economy.
