Subsequent Events

On October 26, 2023, the company entered into a note purchase agreement with Jackson National Life Insurance Company pursuant to which the company will, subject to customary closing conditions, issue an aggregate principal amount of $20 million of 6.91% Senior Secured Notes due on January 3, 2034. The company plans to use the proceeds from the notes offering to refinance existing indebtedness, to support capital investments into its utilities, and for general corporate purposes. The company anticipates closing the notes offering on January 3, 2024.

Management Commentary

"In Q3, we achieved strong double-digit top-line and bottom-line growth," stated Global Water Resources president and CEO, Ron Fleming. "Revenues from water, wastewater and recycled water services increased, driven by organic growth in connections, increased rates and higher consumption. The growth also included contribution from our Farmers Water acquisition, which we completed in February as our largest acquisition since going public on Nasdaq in 2016.

"While our service areas experienced a notable slowdown in new housing starts over the last year due to higher interest rates, we continued to experience a rebound that began in the first half of the year. In fact, in the City of Maricopa, single family housing permits increased 62% to 286 in the third quarter as compared to the same year-ago quarter. In Metro Phoenix, the number of such permits increased 32% to 6,385 by the end of the quarter. This growth correlates with the increasing amount of development activity we are seeing in the community and is believed to be a precursor to the demand for more housing options, including multi-family housing projects.

"In October, we celebrated our 20-year anniversary of providing Total Water Management to Arizona communities. Global Water Resources was founded 20 years ago with a bold mission to address the issue of water scarcity for emerging desert communities. While ongoing water resource challenges are exacerbated by the continued drought, we see many opportunities for addressing these challenges. Communities benefit from our regional planning and smart water management framework which we have successfully deployed over the last two decades in our service areas."

Global Water Resources CFO, Mike Liebman, commented: "Our capital resources of more than $20 million include cash and cash equivalents of $5.3 million as of the end of the third quarter and an unused credit line of $15.0 million. In addition, we anticipate $20 million of gross proceeds from the offering of new senior secured notes, which we expect to close in January 2024. Altogether, this enables us to be a strong utility partner for the communities we serve. This financial strength also allows us to pursue growth through investments in organic expansion, acquisitions and new projects – both big and small."

Fleming concluded: "Looking to the remainder of the year and beyond, we anticipate continued growth across all areas of our business, with this supported by the anticipated ongoing population and job growth throughout metro-Phoenix and our other service areas. We also anticipate future potential growth from our acquisition strategy, as we continue to pursue accretive acquisitions with consolidation benefits."

Q3 2023 Financial Summary

Revenues

Revenues in the third quarter of 2023 increased $2.6 million or 22.2% to $14.5 million, as compared to $11.9 million in the same period in 2022. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to higher average temperatures coupled with significantly lower precipitation as compared to the same period in 2022, causing an escalation of consumption. The increase was also due to the recognition of $0.5 million of Infrastructure Coordination and Financing Agreements (ICFA) related revenue. Other contributing factors include increased rates related to Rate Decision No. 78644, new connections associated with the acquisition of Farmers in February 2023, and year-over-year organic growth in connections of 2.6%.

Revenues for the first nine months of 2023 increased $7.0 million, or 20.9%, to $40.7 million, primarily attributable to elevated consumption related to higher average temperatures and lower average precipitation, ICFA revenue earned during the 2023 period that did not occur in the prior year period, increased rates related to Rate Decision No. 78644, new connections associated with the acquisition of Farmers in February 2023, and organic connection growth.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses in the third quarter of 2023 increased approximately $1.6 million or 17.2% to $10.7 million, compared to $9.1 million in the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to higher depreciation and amortization as a direct result of ICFA related amortization, the increase in fixed assets (a portion of which is related to the activation of plant in a new area), and the acquisition of Farmers in February 2023.

Operating expenses for the first nine months of 2023 increased approximately $3.0 million or 11.1% to $30.0 million, compared to $27.0 million in the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily related to higher depreciation and amortization as a direct result the increase in fixed assets, a portion of which is related to the activation of plant in a new area, the acquisition of Farmers in February 2023, increased utility costs as a result of escalated water consumption, and higher salaries and wages and employee related expenses due to an increase in head count. The increased operating expenses were partially offset by lower professional fees and regulatory expenses that were directly related to the rate case activity and acquisition-related matters during the 2022 period and decreased deferred compensation tied to the company's stock price.

Other Expense

Total other expense decreased $0.2 million or 32.7% to $0.3 million for the third quarter of 2023, as compared to $0.5 million for the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to the increase in the equity portion of the allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC) and increased income associated with Buckeye growth premiums during the quarter, partially offset by an increase in interest expense.

Total other expense in the first nine months of 2023 increased $0.2 million or 17.8% to $1.3 million, as compared to $1.1 million for the same period in 2022. The increase was related to the $0.6 million reduction of income associated with Buckeye growth premiums as a result of fewer new meter connections in the area and an increase in interest expense of $0.4 million, which was partially offset by an increase in the AFUDC equity portion of $0.8 million during the first nine months of 2023.

Net Income

Net income totaled $2.6 million or $0.11 per share in the third quarter of 2023, compared to $1.7 million, or $0.07 per share in the same period in 2022.

Net income increased $2.2 million to $6.8 million or $0.28 per share in the first nine months of 2023, compared to net income of $4.7 million or $0.20 per share in the first nine months of 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.5 million or 24.5% to $7.6 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared to $6.1 million in the same period in 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA increased $2.2 million or 12.4% to $19.5 million in the first nine months of 2023, compared to $17.4 million in the same period in 2022.

Dividend Policy

The company recently declared a monthly cash dividend of $0.02483 per common share (or $0.29796 per share on an annualized basis), which will be payable on November 30, 2023 to holders of record at the close of business on November 16, 2023.

Business Strategy

Global Water's near-term growth strategy involves increasing service connections, improving operating efficiencies, and increasing utility rates as approved by the Arizona Corporation Commission (ACC). The company plans to continue to aggregate water and wastewater utilities, enabling the company and its customers to realize the benefits of consolidation, regionalization, and environmental stewardship.

Connection Rates

As of September 30, 2023, active service connections increased by 4,902 or 8.7% to 61,036, compared to 56,134 at September 30, 2022. The increase in active service connections was primarily due to new connections associated with the acquisition of Farmers and organic growth in connections.

Arizona's Growth Corridor: Positive Population and Economic Trends

There was a trend of positive growth in new connections during 2022, and in the first nine months of 2023 growth continued at a moderate rate. According to the 2020 U.S. Census Data, the Phoenix metropolitan statistical area (MSA) is the 11th largest MSA in the U.S. and had a population of 4.8 million, an increase of 14% over the 4.2 million people reported in the 2010 Census.

Metropolitan Phoenix continues to grow due to its comparatively affordable housing, excellent weather, large and growing universities, a diverse employment base, and low taxes. The Employment and Population Statistics Department of the State of Arizona predicts that the Phoenix metropolitan area will have a population of 5.8 million people by 2030 and 6.5 million by 2040. Job growth year over year in Arizona as of September 30, 2023 was 2.2%, and the state continues to be ranked in the top half nationally for job growth.

Although market data indicates a general slowdown in housing for the Phoenix metropolitan area primarily due to inflation and increased interest rates, Global Water management believes that the company is well-positioned to benefit from the growth expected in the Phoenix metropolitan area due to the availability of lots, existing infrastructure in place within the company's services areas, and increased activity related to multi-family developments.

According to the Arizona Commerce Authority, $49.7 billion of capital has been invested in Arizona for the years 2020 through 2022, which reflects an increase of 588% over the preceding three years. This includes the announcements of major new manufacturing facilities by Taiwan Semiconductor, Intel, and Proctor & Gamble.

The Office of Economic Opportunity expects more than 542,000 new jobs will be created in Arizona by 2031. At an annualized growth rate of 1.6%, this is more than three times the projected U.S. overall growth rate of 0.5% during the same period, according to the U.S Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

This press release contains certain financial measures that are not recognized measures under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), including adjusted net income, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA is defined for the purposes of this press release as net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding the gain or loss related to (i) nonrecurring events; (ii) option expense related to awards made to the board of directors and management; (iii) restricted stock expense related to awards made to executive officers; (iv) disposal of assets; and (v) ICFA revenue recognition.

Management believes that EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are useful supplemental measures of our operating performance and provide our investors meaningful measures of overall corporate performance. EBITDA is also presented because management believes that it is frequently used by investment analysts, investors, and other interested parties as a measure of financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is also presented because management believes that it provides our investors a measure of our recurring core business. However, non-GAAP measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP, and investors are cautioned that non-GAAP measures, such as EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, should not be construed as an alternative to net income or loss or other income statement data (which are determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of our performance or as a measure of liquidity and cash flows. Management's method of calculating EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may differ materially from the method used by other companies and accordingly, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most comparable GAAP measure, is included in the schedules attached to this press release.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes certain forward-looking statements which reflect the company's expectations regarding future events. The forward-looking statements involve a number of assumptions, risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning our strategies; expectations about future business plans, prospective performance, growth, and opportunities, including anticipated continued growth across all areas of our business; future financial performance; acquisition plans and our ability to complete additional acquisitions and the expected future benefits, including the anticipated future potential growth from our acquisition strategy; our dividend policy; population and growth projections; technologies; trends and expectations relating to our industry, market, population and job growth, and housing permits, including our belief that the growth in housing permits in the City of Maricopa and Metro Phoenix is a precursor to the demand for more housing options, including multi-family housing projects; liquidity; plans and expectations for capital expenditures; the anticipated completion of the notes offering, including the anticipated timing and satisfaction of customer closing conditions, as well as our anticipated us of the proceeds from the notes offering; and other statements that are not historical facts as well as statements identified by words such as "expects", "anticipates", "intends", "plans", "believes", "seeks", "estimates", or the negative of these terms, or other words of similar meaning. These statements are based on our current beliefs or expectations and are inherently subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to changes in political, economic, business, market, regulatory, and other factors. Factors that may also affect future results are disclosed under the headings "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), which are available at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. This includes, but is not limited to, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, and subsequent filings with the SEC.

We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, except as required by law, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.
