text color is not correctly returned with VBA

[mastersesci]

I have been working on a project with thousands of rows of multiple choice questions. I was basically creating an answer key by identifying which choice was in red font/text. However when I ran a macro to work through all of the rows outputting the font color values into some temporary columns, I got weird results.
Here is a link to a much smaller subset of the file for you to look at that has the temporary columns still located to the right of the original data.

Any idea why this is not returning the expected results?
I have already checked to make sure there are no conditional formatting rules for the entire worksheet.
The person who provided me the data could not tell me how it was produced/exported

The code I was using to create the output in the temp rows was:

Sub code1()
Dim x as Long
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("DATA")
For x = 3 To 15




Range("L" & x).Value = Range("D" & x).DisplayFormat.Font.Color
Range("M" & x).Value = Range("E" & x).DisplayFormat.Font.Color
Range("N" & x).Value = Range("F" & x).DisplayFormat.Font.Color
Range("O" & x).Value = Range("G" & x).DisplayFormat.Font.Color


Range("K" & x).Value = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Range("L" & x).Resize(1, 4), 0)


Next x


End With
End Sub
