PURE CYCLE CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

February 29, 2024

NOTE 1 – PRESENTATION OF INTERIM INFORMATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Pure Cycle Corporation (Company or Pure Cycle) and include all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and are in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company as of and for the three and six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023. The August 31, 2023 balance sheet was derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2023 (2023 Annual Report) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on November 15, 2023. The results of operations for interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the full fiscal year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported 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. Estimates are used to account for certain items such as revenue recognition, dollar amount of reimbursable costs and collectability of reimbursable costs, costs of revenue for lot sales, share-based compensation, and the useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions due to risks and uncertainties, including uncertainty in the current economic environment.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which changes the impairment model for most financial assets.  The ASU introduces a new credit loss methodology, Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”), which requires earlier recognition of credit losses, while also providing additional transparency about credit risk. Since its original issuance in 2016, the FASB has issued several updates to the original ASU.  The CECL framework utilizes a lifetime expected credit loss measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses for loans, held-to-maturity securities and other receivables at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. The expected credit losses are adjusted each period for changes in expected lifetime credit losses. The methodology replaces the multiple existing impairment methods, which generally require that a loss be incurred before it is recognized.

On September 1, 2023, the Company adopted the guidance on a modified retrospective basis. The Company has not restated comparative information for the three and six months ended February 28, 2023, and, therefore, the comparative information for the three and six months ended February 28, 2023, is reported under previous guidance and is not comparable to the information presented for the three and six months ended February 29, 2024. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications

The Company has reclassified certain prior year information to conform to the current year presentation.

NOTE 2 – REIMBURSABLE PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS AND NOTE RECEIVABLE FROM THE SKY RANCH CAB

The Sky Ranch Community Authority Board (Sky Ranch CAB) and the Company’s agreements with the Sky Ranch CAB are described in greater detail in Notes 5 and 15 to the 2023 Annual Report.

Table of Contents

The notes receivable – related party, reimbursable public improvements and project management fees are due to the Company from the Sky Ranch CAB and reports the balances owed by the Sky Ranch CAB to Pure Cycle for public improvements paid for by Pure Cycle which are reimbursable from the Sky Ranch CAB, project management fees related to the Company’s management of the construction of the public improvements, and interest accrued on the unpaid balances related to the ongoing development of the Sky Ranch master planned community (Sky Ranch). Pure Cycle has advanced funds to the Sky Ranch CAB for the cost of constructing certain public improvements at Sky Ranch which are the ultimate responsibility of the Sky Ranch CAB. During the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, Pure Cycle spent $1.0 million and $3.5 million on public improvements which are payable by the Sky Ranch CAB to Pure Cycle. Since Pure Cycle believes the amounts are probable of collection, they have been added to the note receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB. Additionally, for the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, project management fees of less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million and interest income on the outstanding note receivable of $0.2 million and $0.9 million were also added to the note receivable. During the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, the Sky Ranch CAB paid Pure Cycle $0.3 million and $0.3 million pursuant to the note. Pursuant to the agreements with the Sky Ranch CAB, any payments received are initially applied to interest.  

During the three and six months ended February 28, 2023, Pure Cycle spent $1.7 million and $2.8 million on public improvements which are payable by the Sky Ranch CAB to Pure Cycle. Since Pure Cycle believes the amounts are probable of collection, they have been added to the note receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB. Additionally, for the three and six months ended February 28, 2023, project management fees of $0.1 million and $0.1 million and interest income on the outstanding note receivable of $0.3 million and $0.5 million were also added to the note receivable. No payments were made on the note receivable during the three and six months ended February 28, 2023. Pursuant to the agreements with the Sky Ranch CAB, any payments received are initially applied to interest.  

The following table summarizes the activity and balances associated with the note receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB:

The note receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB accrues interest at 6% per annum. Public improvements which are not probable of reimbursement at the time of being incurred are considered contract fulfillment costs and are recorded as land development construction costs as incurred. If public improvement costs are deemed probable of collection, the costs are recognized as notes receivable - related party. The Company assesses the collectability of the note receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB, which includes reimbursable public improvements, project management fees and the related interest income, at each reporting period. The Sky Ranch CAB has an obligation to repay the Company, but the ability of the Sky Ranch CAB to do so before the contractual termination dates is dependent upon the establishment of a tax base or other fee generating activities sufficient to fund reimbursable costs incurred.

NOTE 3 – REVENUES, FEES AND OTHER INCOME ITEMS

Water and wastewater tap fees, metered water usage and wastewater treatment fees, lot sales, and rents collected from single family homes

The Company’s revenue is primarily generated from sales of water and wastewater taps, metered water and wastewater usage, the sale of lots to homebuilders, and rent collected from its single family homes. Detailed descriptions of the policies related to revenue recognition are included in Note 2 to the 2023 Annual Report.

The following describes significant components of revenue for the three and six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023.

Table of Contents

Water and wastewater tap fees – During the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company sold a total of 0 and 35 water taps generating $0 and $0.8 million in tap fee revenues. During the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company sold a total of 0 and 32 wastewater taps generating $0 and $0.2 million in tap fee revenues. During the six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company sold a total of 15 and 39 water taps generating $0.5 million and $1.0 million in tap fee revenues. During the six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company sold a total of 15 and 36 wastewater taps generating $0.1 million and $0.2 million in tap fee revenues. The water taps were all sold at Sky Ranch and Wild Pointe, and the wastewater taps were all sold at Sky Ranch.

Metered water and wastewater usage fees – During the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company sold a total of 404 and 33 acre-feet of water generating $1.7 million and $0.2 million in metered water and wastewater treatment fees revenue. During the six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company sold a total of 1,028 and 242 acre-feet of water generating $4.1 million and $0.8 million in metered water and wastewater treatment fees revenue.  The Company provides water and wastewater services to customers, for which the customers are charged monthly usage fees. Water usage fees are assessed to customers based on actual metered usage each month plus a base monthly service fee assessed per single family equivalent (SFE) unit served. One SFE is a customer, whether residential, commercial or industrial, that imparts a demand on the Company’s water or wastewater systems similar to the demand of a family of four persons living in a single-family house on a standard-sized lot. Water usage pricing is based on a tiered pricing structure, and certain usage revenues are subject to royalties as described in the 2023 Annual Report. The Company also sells water for industrial uses, mainly to oil and gas companies for use in the drilling and hydrologic fracking processes.

Sale of finished lots – For the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company recognized $1.2 million and $1.4 million of lot sale revenue, which was recognized using the percent-of-completion method for the Company’s land development activities at the Sky Ranch Master Planned Community. For the six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company recognized $3.1 million and $1.9 million of lot sale revenue, which was recognized using the percent-of-completion method for the Company’s land development activities at the Sky Ranch Master Planned Community. As of February 29, 2024, the first development phase (509 lots) is complete and the second development phase (874 lots) is being developed in four subphases, referred to as Phase 2A (229 lots), Phase 2B (211 lots), Phase 2C (228 lots) and Phase 2D (206 lots). As of February 29, 2024, Phase 2A is approximately 96% complete and Phase 2B is approximately 52% complete. Phase 2A is substantially completed with some landscaping items remaining, and Phase 2B is expected to be complete by the end of Pure Cycle’s fiscal 2024. Phase 2C construction has begun but has not met revenue recognition criteria as of February 29, 2024.

Project management services – During each of the three-month periods ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company recognized less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million of project management revenue from the Sky Ranch CAB, a related party, for managing the Sky Ranch development project. During each of the six-month periods ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company recognized $0.1 million of project management revenue from the Sky Ranch CAB, a related party, for managing the Sky Ranch development project.

Single-family rental revenue

In November 2021, Pure Cycle began constructing and renting single-family homes on lots it retained at Sky Ranch. Pure Cycle began recognizing lease income related to these rental units in November 2021. Pure Cycle generally rents its single-family properties under non-cancelable one year lease agreements.  As of February 29, 2024, Pure Cycle has 14 single-family detached homes rented under separate lease agreements.  For the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company recognized $0.1 million and less than $0.1 million of rental property revenues. For the six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company recognized $0.2 million and less than $0.1 million of rental property revenues.

Pure Cycle will begin construction on 17 additional rental homes in Phase 2B, all of which the Company believes will be available for rent in fiscal 2025. As of February 29, 2024, the Company had reserved 83 lots in Phases 2B, 2C and 2D of Sky Ranch for future rental units. When combined with the 14 units already built and rented, these additions will bring the total single-family rentals to 97. The Company expects to take approximately three more years to build and rent all these units. Based on these projections, the Company believes this could become a reportable operating segment in the future once its operations become material.

Special facility projects and other revenue

Pure Cycle receives fees from customers including municipalities and area water providers for contract operations services. These fees are recognized as earned, typically monthly, plus charges for additional work performed. Additionally, the Company performs certain construction activities at Sky Ranch. The activities performed include construction and maintenance services. The revenue for both types of services are invoiced and recognized as special facility projects revenue.  For the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company recognized $0.1 million and $0.2 million of special facility projects and other revenue, an immaterial amount of which is from work performed for the Sky Ranch CAB, a related party.

The Company receives deposits or pre-payments from oil and gas operators to reserve water for use in future well drilling and fracking operations. When the operators use the water, the Company recognizes the revenue for these payments in the metered water usage from the commercial customers’ line on the statement of income.

The Company recognizes lot sales over time as construction activities progress and not necessarily when payment is received. For example, the Company may receive milestone payments before revenue can be recognized (i.e., prior to the Company completing

cumulative progress which faithfully represents the transfer of goods and services to the customer) which results in the Company recording deferred revenue. The Company recognizes this revenue into income as construction activities progress, measured based on costs incurred compared to total estimated costs of the project, which management believes is a faithful representation of the transfer of goods and services to the customer.

Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations such as described above represents contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized, which includes unearned revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods.

NOTE 4 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value accounting guidance includes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 inputs) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).

The carrying value for certain of the Company’s financial instruments (i.e., cash, restricted cash, short term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, the SFR Notes and the Lost Creek Note, each as defined in Note 6 below) materially approximate their fair value because of their short-term nature and generally negligible credit losses.

As of February 29, 2024 and August 31, 2023, the Company had no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. As of August 31, 2023, the Company had one Level 3 asset (notes receivable – related party), for which the Company did not record any impairment charges, and one Level 3 liability, which was the contingent portion of the CAA.

There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 categories during the three and six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023.

NOTE 8 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Rangeview Metropolitan District

The Rangeview Metropolitan District (Rangeview District) and the Company’s agreements with the Rangeview District are described in greater detail in Note 15 to the 2023 Annual Report.

The Rangeview District and the Company have entered into two loan agreements. In 1995, the Company extended a loan to the Rangeview District for borrowings of up to $0.25 million, which is unsecured, and bears interest based on the prevailing prime rate plus 2% (10.5% at February 29, 2024). The maturity date of the loan is December 31, 2024, at which time it automatically renews through December 31, 2025. Beginning in January 2014, the Rangeview District and the Company entered into a funding agreement that allows the Company to continue to provide funding to the Rangeview District for day-to-day operations and accrue the funding into a note that bears interest at a rate of 8% per annum and remains in full force and effect for so long as the 2014 Amended and Restated Lease Agreement among the Rangeview District, the Company, and the State Board of Land Commissioners remains in effect. At February 29, 2024, balance in notes receivable - related parties, other totaled $1.4 million, which included borrowings of $1.4 million and accrued interest of less than $0.1 million. As of August 31, 2023, the principal and interest on both loan agreements totaled $1.5 million, which included $1.4 million of borrowings and less than $0.1 million of accrued interest. During the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, the Company received interest and principal payments totaling $0.1 million from the Rangeview District. During the three and six months ended February 28, 2023, the Company did not receive any interest or principal payments from the Rangeview District.

Additionally, the Company provides funding to the Rangeview District for the Rangeview District’s participation in the “Wise Partnership.” The WISE Partnership and capitalized terms related to WISE not defined herein are defined in Note 8 to the 2023 Annual Report. During the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company, through the Rangeview District, received metered water deliveries of 0 acre-feet and 56 acre-feet of WISE water, paying $0 million and $0.1 million for this water. During the six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company, through the Rangeview District, received metered water deliveries of 65 acre-feet and 111 acre-feet of WISE water, paying $0.1 million and $0.2 million for this water. The cost of WISE water to the members is based on the water rates charged by Aurora Water and can be adjusted each January 1. As of January 1, 2024, WISE water was approximately $6.55 per thousand gallons and such rate will remain in effect through calendar 2024.

Sky Ranch Community Authority Board

The Sky Ranch CAB and the Company’s agreements with the Sky Ranch CAB are described in greater detail in Note 15 to the 2023 Annual Report.

The Sky Ranch Districts and the Sky Ranch CAB are quasi-municipal corporations and political subdivisions of Colorado formed for the purpose of providing service to Sky Ranch. The Sky Ranch CAB was formed to, among other things, design, construct, finance, operate and maintain certain public improvements for the benefit of the property within the boundaries and/or service area of the Sky

Table of Contents

Ranch Districts. For the public improvements to be constructed and/or acquired, it is necessary for each Sky Ranch District, directly or through the Sky Ranch CAB, to be able to fund the improvements and pay its ongoing operations and maintenance expenses related to the provision of services that benefit the property. To fund these improvements, the Company and the Sky Ranch CAB entered into various funding agreements obligating the Company to advance funds to the Sky Ranch CAB for specified public improvements constructed from 2018 to 2024. All amounts owed under the agreements bear interest at a rate of 6% per annum. Any advances not paid or reimbursed by the Sky Ranch CAB by December 31, 2058 for the first phase and December 31, 2060 for the second phase shall be deemed forever discharged and satisfied in full.  The Company has received cumulative, project-to-date payments of $35.8 million from the Sky Ranch CAB for payments on the note receivable including both principal and interest payments.

As of February 29, 2024, the balance of the Company’s advances to the Sky Ranch CAB for improvements, including interest, net of reimbursements from the Sky Ranch CAB total $28.9 million. The advances have been used by the Sky Ranch CAB to pay for construction of public improvements. The Company submits specific costs for reimbursement to the Sky Ranch CAB that have been certified by an independent third-party. The Company anticipates providing additional funding of approximately $13.3 million for construction of public improvements to the Sky Ranch CAB during the remainder of fiscal 2024 related to Phase 2A, Phase 2B and Phase 2C of the Sky Ranch development.  Payments from Sky Ranch CAB are made based on available cashflow from operations or from proceeds from the issuance of bonds.

In fiscal 2022, through a competitive bidding process, the Sky Ranch CAB awarded the Company a contract to construct fencing around Phase 2A of the Sky Ranch Master Planned Community. The contracted bid price is $0.4 million, which is being recognized as revenue as the construction of the fence progresses. During the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company recognized $0 and less than $0.1 million of revenue related to this contract. During the six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company recognized less than $0.1 million of revenue related to this contract.

Nelson Pipeline Constructors LLC

Through a competitive bidding process, the Sky Ranch CAB awarded Nelson Pipeline Constructors, LLC (Nelson), a contract to construct the wet utility pipelines in Phase 2A of Sky Ranch. During the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Sky Ranch CAB paid Nelson $0 and $0.7 million related to this contract. During the six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Sky Ranch CAB paid Nelson $0.1 million and $0.9 million related to this contract Nelson is majority owned by the chair of the Company’s Board of Directors.

NOTE 11 – SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company reports two operating segments which meet segment disclosure requirements, the water and wastewater resource development segment and the land development segment. The single-family rentals, although not currently material to operations and not a required segment disclosure, is presented within the operating segment information below for informational purposes.

The water and wastewater resource development segment includes providing water and wastewater services to customers, which water is provided by the Company using water rights owned or controlled by the Company, and developing, operating, and maintaining infrastructure to divert, treat and distribute that water and collect, treat and reuse reclaimed wastewater. The land development segment includes all activities necessary to develop and sell finished lots, which for the three and six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, was done exclusively at the Company’s Sky Ranch Master Planned Community. The single-family rental business includes the monthly rental fees received from the renters under the non-cancellable annual leases.

The tables below present the measure of profit and assets used to assess the performance of the two required segments and the single-family rentals that the Company believes will become a segment for the periods presented:

NOTE 12 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share (EPS) is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Certain outstanding options are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because they are anti-dilutive (i.e., their assumed conversion into common stock would increase rather than decrease EPS). For the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company excluded 468,631 options and 593,975 options because their impact was anti-dilutive. For the six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, the Company excluded 466,249 options and 603,088 options because their impact was anti-dilutive.

NOTE 13 – INCOME TAXES

The income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items. As of February 29, 2024, the Company is estimating an annual effective tax rate of approximately 25%. Each quarter, the estimate of the annual effective tax rate is updated, and if the estimated effective tax rate changes, a cumulative adjustment is made. There is a potential for volatility of the effective tax rate due to various factors.

The provision for income taxes is recorded at the end of each interim period based on the Company’s best estimate of its effective income tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year considering any items requiring discrete recognition.

The effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, was impacted by adjustments related to reconciling items between the Company’s books and tax returns.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

In Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A), “we,” “us,” “our” and "Pure Cycle" refer to Pure Cycle Corporation and all entities owned or controlled by Pure Cycle Corporation. You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, related MD&A and discussion of our business included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2023 (2023 Annual Report) filed with the United States (U.S.) Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in this Form 10-Q. The results of operations reported and summarized below are not necessarily indicative of future operating results, and future results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements (refer to “Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this Form 10-Q; and Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our 2023 Annual Report for further discussion).

We are a diversified water resource and land development company. At our core, we are a wholesale water and wastewater service provider, and we develop land we own into master planned communities, reserving certain lots on which we build homes for our single-family rental business. Both the land development and single-family home rental lines of business generate customers and usage fees for our water and wastewater resource development business.

Recent Developments and Economic Conditions

The housing market experienced tremendous growth for several years through 2022. In the third quarter of calendar 2022, the housing market experienced increased challenges, which have continued through the date of this filing and show signs of continuing in 2024. These challenges were caused by multiple factors including rising mortgage interest rates; the war in Ukraine, which has impacted supplies of energy, food, fertilizer, and fuel; increasing inflation; disruptions in supply chains, distribution networks and consumer behavior; and the collapse of three large banks, which may impact the availability of lending and deposit rates. The U.S. Federal Reserve Board (Federal Reserve) remains aggressive in its actions to combat inflation, which has resulted in mortgage rates rising, which hit their highest levels in over 15 years during 2023, further challenging the housing market.

Despite this, we believe several long-term land development and housing market fundamental factors remain positive. For example, available lots and housing supply-demand remain imbalanced due to a decade-plus of underproduction of new homes in relation to population growth and low resale home inventory. While we remain confident in the long-term growth prospects for the industry given these and other factors, our future performance and strategies will depend significantly on the housing market which is impacted by the factors noted in the paragraph above. Like many other businesses, our contractors have experienced delays in receiving materials and parts, rising costs, and labor shortages. However, we have adjusted our purchases and operations in ways that we believe will reduce the impact these factors have on our construction and other activities. Specifically, we delayed the start of construction on Phase 2B to avoid incurring development costs when market demand declined and to give our home builder partners additional time to absorb lots from Phase 2A. We believe our reasonably priced lots and the low inventory of entry level housing in the Denver market will help Sky Ranch navigate the changing market better than other surrounding and significantly higher priced communities. We continue to work closely with our home builder partners to provide affordable lots for entry level homes and to deliver those lots incrementally to minimize inventories for both the Company’s construction of lots and our home builders’ ownership of finished lots.

The Federal Reserve’s aggressive raising of the federal funds interest rate and other measures during calendar 2022 and 2023 sought to moderate persistent U.S. inflation, and the further actions it has stated it intends to take, are expected to be an ongoing headwind for the housing market in 2024 as they have elevated mortgage loan interest rates and created macroeconomic uncertainty and volatility across financial markets. In addition, consumer demand for our homes and our ability to grow our scale, revenues, and returns in fiscal 2024 could be materially and negatively affected by the above-described monetary policy impacts or other factors that curtail mortgage loan availability, employment or income growth or consumer confidence in the U.S. and Colorado markets. We continue to work proactively to mitigate these impacts working with our home builder partners on timing of investment and delivery of lots; however, the potential extent and effect of these factors on our business is uncertain, unpredictable, and outside our control, and our past performance should not be considered indicative of our future results.

Our Business Strategy

For more than three decades we have accumulated a large portfolio of valuable water rights and land interests in Colorado. We have added an extensive network of wholesale water production, storage, treatment and distribution systems, and wastewater collection and treatment systems that we use to serve domestic, commercial, and industrial water demands in the eastern Denver metropolitan region. Our primary land asset, Sky Ranch, is in one of the most active development areas in the Denver metropolitan region along the rapidly developing I-70 corridor, and we are developing lots at Sky Ranch for residential, commercial, retail, and light industrial uses. We also have launched a single-family rental business where we rent homes in Sky Ranch under annual lease agreements. We plan to expand this new line of business to more than 200 rental units over the next several years.

Although we report our results of operations through our water and wastewater resource development segment and our land development segment, we operate these segments as a cohesive business designed to provide a cost effective, sustainable, and value-added business enterprise.

Water and Wastewater

Water resources throughout the western U.S., and particularly in Colorado, are a scarce and valuable resource. Our owned and/or controlled portfolio of  more than 30,000 acre-feet of water is comprised of groundwater, designated basin groundwater, and surface water supplies. Our other significant water assets include 26,000 acre-feet of adjudicated reservoir sites, two wastewater reclamation facilities, water treatment facilities, potable and raw water storage facilities, wells and water production facilities, and roughly 50 miles of water distribution and wastewater collection lines. Our water supplies and wholesale facilities are primarily located in southeast Denver, an area which is limited in both water availability and infrastructure to produce, treat, store, and distribute water and wastewater. We believe this provides us with a unique competitive advantage in offering these services.

We provide wholesale water and wastewater service to local governments for both residential and commercial customers. The local governments we serve include the Rangeview Metropolitan District (Rangeview District), Arapahoe County, the Sky Ranch Community Authority Board and related metropolitan districts (Sky Ranch CAB), and the Elbert and Highway 86 Commercial Metropolitan District (Elbert 86 District). Our mission is to provide sustainable, reliable, high-quality water to our customers and collect, treat, and reuse wastewater using advance water treatment systems, which produce high quality reclaimed water we can reuse for outdoor irrigation and industrial demands. By using and reusing our water supplies, we proactively manage our valuable water rights in the water-scarce Denver, Colorado region which dramatically reduces the environmental impact of our water resource operations. We design, permit, construct, operate and maintain wholesale water and wastewater systems that we own or operate on behalf of governmental entities. We also design, permit, construct, operate, and maintain retail distribution and collection systems that we own or exclusively operate on behalf of our governmental customers. Additionally, we handle administrative functions, including meter reading, billing and collection of monthly water and wastewater revenues, regulatory water quality monitoring, sampling, testing, and reporting requirements to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.

Revenues for our water operations are dependent on us growing the number of customers we serve. If we are unable to add customers to our systems and sell taps to builders, our revenues could be negatively impacted. We currently are the developer of the Sky Ranch Master Planned Community, which is the main driver of our tap sales. Prolonged periods of hot and dry weather generally cause increased water usage for watering lawns, washing cars, and keeping parks irrigated. Additionally, prolonged periods of dry weather could lead to drought restrictions and limited water availability. Despite our substantial water supply, customers may be required to conserve water usage under such drought restrictions which would negatively impact metered usage revenues. We have addressed some of this vulnerability by instituting minimum customer charges which are intended to cover fixed costs of operations under all likely weather conditions.

Land Development

Our Land Development segment is primarily focused on developing the Sky Ranch Master Planned Community located along the booming I-70 corridor. We develop and sell residential, commercial, retail, and light industrial lots. Sky Ranch is zoned to include up to 3,200 single-family and multifamily homes, parks, open spaces, trails, recreational centers, and schools. Additionally, Sky Ranch is zoned to include over two million square feet of retail, commercial, and light industrial space, which is the equivalent of approximately 1,800 residential units, meaning the Sky Ranch community at build-out will include a total of roughly 5,000 residential and equivalent units. Our land development activities include the design, permitting, and construction of all the horizontal infrastructure, including, storm water, drainage, roads, curbs, sidewalks, parks, open space, trails, and other infrastructure to deliver “ready to build” finished lots to home builders and commercial customers. Our land development activities generate revenue from the sale of finished lots as well as construction revenues from activities where we construct infrastructure on behalf of others. Land development revenues come from our home builder customers under specific agreements for the delivery of finished lots. Additionally, pursuant to certain agreements with the Sky Ranch CAB and its related metropolitan districts, on their behalf we construct public infrastructure such as roads, curbs, storm water, drainage, sidewalks, parks, open space, trails etc., the costs of which are reimbursed to us by the Sky Ranch CAB through funds generated from property taxes, fees or the issuance of municipal bonds.

Our land development activities provide a strategic complement to our water and wastewater activities because a significant component of any master planned community is providing high quality domestic water, irrigation water, and wastewater to the community. Having control over land and the water and wastewater services enables us to build infrastructure for potable water and irrigation distribution, wastewater and storm water collection, roads, parks, open spaces, and other investments efficiently and to manage delivery of these investments to match take-down commitments from our home builder customers without significant excess capacity in any of these investments.

We have been developing the Sky Ranch community since 2017, which we are developing in phases. We believe it will take approximately eight to ten more years to fully develop Sky Ranch. In 2017, we began the initial development phase of Sky Ranch when we entered separate contracts with Richmond American Homes, Taylor Morrison, and KB Home, pursuant to which we sold a total of 505 single-family, detached residential lots at Sky Ranch. Pursuant to these agreements, we were obligated to construct infrastructure and other public improvements as well as wholesale infrastructure improvements (i.e., a wastewater reclamation facility and wholesale water facilities). Phase 1 of the Sky Ranch development is complete, and all revenue and costs have been recognized.

During our fiscal 2021, we began construction on the second development phase at Sky Ranch. For this phase, we entered separate contracts with KB Home, Lennar Colorado, Melody (a DR Horton Company), and Challenger Homes to sell 781 single-family attached and detached residential lots at Sky Ranch, and we retained 93 lots (through such contracts and subsequent amendments) for use in our single-family home rental business. The second development phase is approximately 250 acres and is being completed in four sub-phases (referred to as Phase 2A, 2B, 2C and 2D). Due to our strong performance in the first phase of the Sky Ranch project, we were able to realize an approximate 38% increase in our average lot prices. For example, we increased our sales price for a 45’ foot lot from an average of $75,000 to $103,200 and added an escalation clause that increases the prices depending on timing of payments. The timing of cash flows includes certain milestone deliveries such as the completion of governmental approvals for final plats, installation of wet utilities, and final completion of lot deliveries.

In February 2021, we began construction activities in Phase 2A at Sky Ranch, which has 229 residential lots, 10 of which we have retained for use in our single-family rental business. As of February 29, 2024, we have received plats and completed wet and dry utilities, roads, and sidewalks for Phase 2A and are actively working on landscaping and fencing for the neighborhood. Contracts with three of the four homebuilders include milestone payments as construction progresses, with the fourth homebuilder contract having one payment due at delivery of the finished lot (i.e. the transfer of the title). As of February 29, 2024, Phase 2A of the Sky Ranch development is approximately 96% complete, and we have received all $18.4 million of payments related to the sale of the 219 lots in Phase 2A.

In March 2023, we began construction activities in Phase 2B at Sky Ranch, which is platted for 211 residential lots, 17 of which we have retained for use in our single-family rental business. Contracts with three of the four homebuilders in Phase 2B include milestone payments as construction progresses, with the fourth homebuilder having one payment due at the transfer of title of the finished lots. As of February 29, 2024, Phase 2B of the Sky Ranch development is approximately 52% complete. During the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, we received $1.2 million and $4.1 million which consists of the second milestone payments from the three builders with milestone payment contracts. We expect the finished lot payment for Phase 2B, which totals $8.9 million, to be received over the next 9 months.

Table of Contents

We recognize revenue earned under these contracts over time using the percentage of completion method which aligns the recognition of revenue with the requisite progress made on construction activities. During the three months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, due to the construction progress in Phase 2A and 2B, we recognized $1.2 million and $1.4 million of lot sale revenue related to construction at Sky Ranch. During the six months ended February 29, 2024 and February 28, 2023, due to the construction progress in Phase 2A and 2B, we recognized $3.1 million and $1.9 million of lot sale revenue related to construction at Sky Ranch. Due to construction progress, we have recognized a total of $17.6 million of lot sales revenue since construction began on Phase 2A and $6.4 million of lot sale revenue since construction began on Phase 2B, as of February 29, 2024. We expect to recognize the majority of the remaining $0.8 million of revenue for Phase 2A before the end of our fiscal 2024, and the remaining $10.8 million of revenue for Phase 2B over the next 12 months.

Phase 2C construction has begun but has not met revenue recognition criteria as of February 29, 2024. The first milestone payments for Phase 2C were received in March 2024.  Remaining payments for lot sales and the related revenue for Phases 2C and 2D will occur as construction of those phases occurs. We believe it will take approximately three more years to complete construction and sell the finished lots in all four subphases depending on market conditions and the permitting process.

In addition to the lot sales described above, from the start of development at Sky Ranch through February 29, 2024, we have received $21.6 million of water and wastewater tap fees from the homebuilders, which is for all 509 taps sold in Phase 1 (with four being allocated to our single-family rentals) and 228 of 229 taps sold in Phase 2A (with 10 being allocated to our single-family rentals). The timing of tap sales is dependent on when homebuilders request building permits. Fees charged per water tap are dependent on lot sizes and average water usage across a broad range of housing product types including duplexes and townhomes. For Phase 2 in total, we estimate water and wastewater tap fees will exceed $20.0 million.

Single-Family Rentals

During our fiscal 2021, we launched a new line of business we are referring to as our single-family rental business. During Phase 1 of Sky Ranch, we retained ownership of four residential lots for use in this business. As of February 29, 2024, we have completed 14 single-family homes on these lots which we own, maintain, and have leased to qualified renters under one-year lease terms. We have expanded our single-family rentals in our second development phase of Sky Ranch by building homes on lots we did not sell to our home builder partners, which we will rent out once completed. As of February 29, 2024, we reserved a total of 93 lots in Phase 2, 10 of which are in Phase 2A and are completed and rented as of February 29, 2024. Additionally, we have reserved 17 lots in Phase 2B, which we anticipate completing in calendar 2024.

We capitalize the costs of the homes and when applicable depreciate the costs over periods not exceeding thirty-years. Lease income is recorded monthly as earned and renters are typically under a one-year lease. We began recognizing monthly lease income for the first three rental units on November 1, 2021.

Results of Operations

Executive Summary

For the three months ended February 29, 2024, we generated net income of $0.1 million compared to $0.2 million for the comparable period in fiscal 2023. The increase in water sales to oil and gas operators for drilling purposes was offset by a decrease in lot sale revenue being recognized using the percentage of completion method, which is based on progress of construction. Although we began construction on Phase 2C in February 2024 we were unable to begin recognizing any of the revenue for the three months ended. Despite increased challenges on the housing market, our land development activities showed an increase in growth over last year as we began construction on Phase 2B and 2C at Sky Ranch, which we believe is due to our entry level pricing and affordable lot costs.

For the six months ended February 29, 2024, we generated net income of $2.2 million compared to $0.4 million for the comparable period in fiscal 2023. The increase was primarily driven by significant water sales to oil and gas operators for drilling purposes and increased lot sale revenue being recognized using the percentage of completion method, which is based on progress of construction. Despite increased challenges on the housing market, our land development activities showed an increase in growth over last year as we began construction on Phase 2B and Phase 2C at Sky Ranch, which we believe is due to our entry level pricing and affordable lot costs.

Three and Six Months Ended February 29, 2024 Results Compared to 2023

For the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, total revenue increased as compared to 2023, primarily due to a significant increase in oil and gas operations in our service area resulting in a substantial increase in commercial water sales. We also experienced increased lot sale revenue for the six months ended February 29, 2024 compared to 2023 from multiple on-going Phases in 2024. Phase 2A had more activity in late 2023 and we began construction on Phase 2B during the end of 2023, resulting in more revenue being recognized. The increase was offset by a decrease in our water and wastewater tap sales period over period due to the timing of new home construction. Lot sales are recognized using the percentage of completion method and due to increased construction activity in late 2023 despite the increased challenges on the housing market and severe weather in our market, construction activities increased to provide additional lots to builders.

For the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, total costs of revenue increased as compared to 2023, primarily due to higher costs in the land development segment as we continued developing Phases 2A and 2B of Sky Ranch, and higher costs related to the delivery of water to oil and gas operators. Costs of revenue for the water and wastewater segment did not increase in line with revenue because the water sold to oil and gas operators was lower cost water resulting in higher profits versus traditional domestic usage.

For the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, general administrative expense and depreciation increased as compared to 2023, primarily due to the receipt of qualified Employee Retention Credits from the Internal Revenue Service in 2023 and additional fixed assets in 2024.

For the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, water deliveries increased as compared to 2023 primarily due to increased water sales to oil and gas operators.

For the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, municipal water usage revenue increased over 2023 mainly due to increased residential customers at Sky Ranch. Commercial water usage revenue increased for the three and six months ended February 29, 2024 compared to 2023 due to increased water sales to oil and gas operators.

For the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, wastewater treatment fees increased slightly as compared to 2023 primarily due to new Sky Ranch customers.

For the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, water and wastewater tap sales decreased compared to 2023 due to timing of closings at Sky Ranch. Tap sales are driven by builders obtaining building permits in anticipation of home closings.

For the three months ended February 29, 2024, lot sales revenue decreased as compared to 2023 due to timing of development activities, and despite beginning field construction on Phase 2C in February 2024, we did not reach our first milestone to begin recognizing revenue. For the six months ended February 29, 2024, lot sales revenue increased as compared to 2023 due to having two phases under construction (Phase 2A and 2B) in 2024. Per lot revenue is expected to increase as we completed each of the four subphases of Phase 2. Revenue for builder contracts is recognized over time with progress measured under the percent of completion method; therefore, revenue will fluctuate due to timing of construction activities throughout Phase 2.

For the three and six months ended February 29, 2024, land development construction costs decreased for the three months ended and increased for the six months ended compared to 2023 due to fluctuations in construction activity and revenue recognized during the periods compared.

Single-Family Rental Results of Operations

In fiscal 2021, we began construction on three homes that were completed and rented effective November 1, 2021. Each home was rented under a one-year non-cancellable lease agreement. The costs reflected as cost of sales for the rental units include a pro-rata share of the annual property taxes and insurance related specifically to the rental units as well as immaterial fees related to the operations and maintenance assessments from the Sky Ranch CAB that are assessed to every home in Sky Ranch. Our tenants are responsible for all other utilities including water and wastewater services that are paid to us. As of February 29, 2024, the Company had a total of 14 units rented.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Financial Position

As of February 29, 2024, our working capital, defined as current assets less current liabilities, was $19.9 million, which included $20.4 million in cash and cash equivalents. All our cash is maintained at high-credit quality institutions and overnight investments are made into an insured cash sweep program which provides FDIC insurance for our entire cash balance through the banks in which our cash is being held. We believe that as of February 29, 2024 and as of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have sufficient working capital to fund our operations for the next 12 months. Our expected obligations for the next 12 months are described below.

Sky Ranch Development

Phase 1 of the Sky Ranch development is complete, Phase 2 began in February 2021, which is being done in four subphases, of which Phase 2A, Phase 2B and Phase 2C are being actively developed as of February 29, 2024. We estimate total costs to complete the infrastructure (including public improvements) for all 874 lots in Phase 2 to total $74.6 million. Of this, we anticipate spending up to $15.8 million in the next 12 months, and we anticipate receiving approximately $20.9 million in milestone payments from our builder customers and completed lot payments. Additionally, we will received tap fee payments from our builder customers over the same period. The amounts we expect to spend and receive in the next 12 months are dependent on the pace of construction in Phase 2A, Phase 2B and Phase 2C. We believe water and wastewater tap fees as well as progress payments from our homebuilder customers and our existing cash balances will fund our obligations for the next 12 months.

Table of Contents

Single-Family Rental Construction Contract

In calendar 2024, we anticipate entering into a contract with national home builders to construct 17 rental units at Sky Ranch in Phase 2B and 40 rental units at Sky Ranch in Phase 2C to be used in our single-family rental business. The contracted construction costs for all 17 units in Phase 2B will be approximately $6 million. As of February 29, 2024, we had incurred less than $0.1 million of these construction costs. We anticipate incurring and financing the majority of the remaining cost for Phase 2B rental units in calendar 2024.

ECCV Capacity Operating System

The Rangeview District may purchase water produced from East Cherry Creek Valley Water and Sanitation District’s (ECCV) Land Board system, which we would pay for pursuant to our funding agreements with the Rangeview District. Our costs associated with the use of the ECCV system are a flat fee $3,000 per month through April 2032. Additionally, we pay a fee per 1,000 gallons of water produced from the ECCV system, which is included in the water usage fees charged to customers.

South Metropolitan Water Supply Authority (SMWSA) and the Water Infrastructure Supply Efficiency Partnership (WISE)

We have entered into a financing agreement that obligates us to fund the Rangeview District’s cost of participating in WISE. We anticipate investing up to $6.0 million in total through fiscal years 2025 to fund the Rangeview District’s obligation to purchase water and fund development of infrastructure for WISE, its obligations related to SMWSA, and the construction of a connection to the WISE system. In exchange for funding the Rangeview District’s obligations in WISE, we have the sole right to use and reuse the Rangeview District’s 9% share of the WISE water and infrastructure to provide water service to the Rangeview District’s customers and to receive the revenue from such service. Our current WISE subscription entitles us to approximately 3.0 million gallons per day of transmission pipeline capacity and up to 900 acre-feet per year of water.
