Forward-looking statements, 10-Q filed Nov 9, 2026
- Statements that are not historical facts are based on our current expectations, beliefs, assumptions, estimates, forecasts and projections for our business and the industry and markets related to our business.
- Based on our pro forma estimates, if the base rates, energy cost charges and monthly meter rental fees contemplated by the License had been applied to Cayman Water’s historical volumes, historical energy cost and meter base, we estimate that our revenue and operating income would have been approximately $2.1 million, $1.9 million and $1.3 million lower for 2024, 2025 and the first seven months of 2026,…
- In June 2023, we (through our subsidiary Kalaeloa Desalco) executed a contract with the Honolulu Board of Water Supply (“BWS”) to construct and operate a 1.7 million gallons per day seawater reverse osmosis desalination plant in Oahu, Hawaii (the “project”).
- We have achieved major project milestones under this phase of the project, including (i) successful pilot plant testing, (ii) receipt of confirmation from BWS that we are able to produce water that is a “reasonable match” to the quality of BWS’s current water supply and that we are able to produce water that causes “no detrimental impact” to the BWS water system or their customers’ assets, and (iii) completion of…
- Based on the current permitting timeline, we now expect construction of the plant to begin in the first half of 2027, compared with our previous expectation of late 2026.
- Although we do not currently expect the permitting delays to result in a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, the deferral of construction activities has shifted anticipated revenue recognition and associated cash flows related to the Hawaii desalination plant project into future periods.
- We will continue to assess the impact of these developments on our estimates of total project costs, timing of performance obligations and variable consideration, and will update our disclosures as appropriate in future periodic or current reports.
- We believe, based on current projections, that manufacturing revenue for the full 2026 fiscal year will be less than the manufacturing revenue generated for the 2025 fiscal year.
- Consequently, should we be required or elect to transfer any profits generated by our U.S. subsidiaries to our parent company in the Cayman Islands, we will be required to pay a withholding tax of 30% on the amount of any such funds transferred.
- Our projected liquidity requirements for the balance of 2026 include capital expenditures for our existing operations of approximately $1.5 million.
- With the exception of the liquidity matter relating to CW-Bahamas that is discussed in the paragraphs that follow, we are not presently aware of anything that would lead us to believe that we will not have sufficient liquidity to meet our needs.
