FFP Partners LP (AMEX: FFP; $1.125)
FFP Partners owns $38,000,000 of real estate leased to FFP Marketing, Inc. for retail use. Of course, putting your eggs into one basket does increase risk, this "trading unit" is beat'n to a pulp - while providing increasingly positive results.
FFP Partners LP ("FFP"), in it's current form due to a reorganization that divided real estate from marketing. The result created FPP Marketing, Inc. owning retail marketing operations (AMEX: FMM; $4.00), and the continuation of FFP Partners owning the real estate assets. The bottom end of the above is the spin-off of FFP Marketing, Inc. to the Unit Holders of FPP Partners LP. This transaction occurred during December '98.
