Pure Cycle Announces Financial Results
For the Three and Six Months Ended February 28, 2025
DENVER, CO / ACCESSWIRE / April 9, 2025 – Pure Cycle Corporation (NASDAQ Capital Market: PCYO) announced its financial results for the three and six months ended February 28, 2025. Pure Cycle posted its twenty-third consecutive fiscal quarter with positive net income. Development at the Sky Ranch Master Planned Community continues to progress, as we complete our seasonally low winter quarter. We have completed development of Phase 2A, and we are finishing our landscaping and warranty work on Phase 2B as our national homebuilder partners have begun construction in Phase 2B with approximately 70 homes completed or under construction for the spring selling season. We are actively developing Phase 2C, with utility work and road work well underway, and we anticipate delivering finished lots with home construction expected to begin late summer of 2025. Additionally, we have finalized our grading work in Phase 2D and expect to complete these lots by the end of the calendar year 2025. Finally, we have started platting our next subphase, Phase 2E, for which we expect to have lots ready for our national homebuilder partners by the end of fiscal 2026. Pure Cycle continues to drive income from our resource rich asset base and in the three and six months ended February 28, 2025, we reported an increase in our royalty revenues from our oil and gas mineral interest at Sky Ranch, where an additional six wells were completed in 2024 that began producing during this fiscal year.
Our capital management and balance sheet strategy remains focused on growth and shareholder returns. We are prioritizing investment in our ongoing development projects while utilizing available liquidity to continue our share repurchase program and reserving sufficient capital for strategic development initiatives and land acquisitions.

“Second quarter is a seasonally slow quarter due to our Colorado winters making field construction challenging. That said we have a record number of lots under construction and have made substantial progress through the winter months towards delivering these lots,” commented Mark Harding, CEO of Pure Cycle. “Our entry level market segmentation and our developing finished lots for our homebuilder customers continues to differentiate us in the market and bolster our value proposition to our homebuilder customers,” continued Mr. Harding.
Q2 and YTD 2025 Financial Summary
Revenues
For the three months ended February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024, we reported total revenue of $4.0 million and $3.2 million with $2.6 million and $1.8 million being generated in our water and wastewater resource development segment, $1.3 million and $1.3 million generated by our land development segment, and $0.1 million and $0.1 million reported in our single-family rental business.
For the six months ended February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024, we reported total revenue of $9.7 million and $8.6 million with $5.7 million and $5.1 million being generated in our water and wastewater resource development segment, $3.8 million and $3.3 million generated by our land development segment, and $0.2 million and $0.2 million reported in our single-family rental business.
For the three months ended February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024, we sold 52 and 0 water or water and wastewater taps for $2.1 million and $0. For the six months ended February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024, we sold 90 and 15 water or water and wastewater taps for $3.6 million and $0.6 million. As of February 28, 2025, we have sold 895 water and wastewater taps at Sky Ranch in Phases 1, 2A, and 2B. Based on current prices and engineering estimates, we believe Phase 2 of Sky Ranch will exceed $20 million in water and wastewater tap fee revenue and cash over the next three years.
2
As of February 28, 2025, the first development phase (509 lots) is complete and the second development phase (1,032 lots) is being developed in five subphases, referred to as Phase 2A (229 lots), Phase 2B (211 lots), Phase 2C (228 lots), Phase 2D (218 lots) and Phase 2E (146 lots). As of February 28, 2025, Phase 2A is 100% complete, Phase 2B is approximately 95% complete, Phase 2C is approximately 48% complete, Phase 2D is approximately 18% complete and Phase 2E is expected to begin development work in fiscal 2025. Phase 2B is substantially completed with some landscaping and warranty items remaining. Phase 2C is expected to be completed by the end of Pure Cycle’s fiscal 2025, Phase 2D is expected to be completed by the end of calendar 2025 and Phase 2E is expected to be completed by the end of Pure Cycle’s fiscal 2026.
As of February 28, 2025, the single-family rental business had 14 homes built and rented in Sky Ranch and 17 additional homes under contract to build in Phase 2B starting in the spring of 2025. As noted in the prior quarters, due to the overwhelming demand for rental homes at Sky Ranch, we expect to have a total of 98 homes in Phases 1 and 2 with the ability to add more than 200 homes as Sky Ranch builds out.
"Despite typical winter slowdowns, Pure Cycle maintained positive net income in the quarter, leveraging its robust balance sheet and diversified asset portfolio. Our earnings showcased the strength of our oil and gas royalty portfolio through our royalty income and the strength of our water and wastewater infrastructure through our water and wastewater tap sales. We continue to see strong demand for our entry-level housing at Sky Ranch as we expand development across multiple subphases," stated Marc Spezialy, CFO of Pure Cycle. "Development activities are currently underway on 228 lots in Phase 2C, with finished lot deliveries scheduled for fiscal 2025. Additionally, we commenced development on an additional 218 lots in Phase 2D, with deliveries anticipated in fiscal 2026. We are also moving forward with a new subphase, Phase 2E, with an additional 146 lots we expect to deliver by the end of fiscal 2026," concluded Mr. Spezialy.
Working Capital
With the recent uncertainty in the capital markets our Company is well positioned with a strong balance sheet and terrific working capital (current assets less current liabilities) of $19.8 million as of February 28, 2025, with $16.8 million of cash and cash equivalents. This allows us to not only to execute delivering lots to our homebuilder customers but to capitalize on acquisition opportunities as they may become available.
Q2 and YTD 2025 Operational Summary
Water and Wastewater Resource Development
Water deliveries decreased for the three months ended February 28, 2025, to 64 acre-feet delivered as compared to 404 acre-feet delivered for 2024. Water deliveries decreased for the six months ended February 28, 2025, to 367 acre-feet delivered as compared to 1,028 acre-feet delivered for 2024.The decreases were due to a decrease in water sold to oil and gas operations, which is not part of our recurring water revenue to residential customers. Oil and gas operations are highly variable and dependent on oil prices, demand for gas, and the timing of development of other leases in our service areas. As Sky Ranch continues to develop, we anticipate continued growth in our residential water and wastewater service revenues. The water and wastewater tap sales increased in 2025 to $2.1 million compared to $0 in 2024 for the three months ended and increased in 2025 to $3.6 million compared to $0.6 million in 2024 for the six months ended, primarily due to the timing of development activities in Phase 2B.
Land Development
For the three months ended February 28, 2025, lot sales revenue decreased to $1.1 million as compared to $1.2 million in 2024 due to an increase in estimated cost to complete Phase 2B in 2025 and multiple phases under construction simultaneously. For the six months ended February 28, 2025, lot sales revenue increased to $3.5 million as compared to $3.1 million in 2024 due to having three phases under construction Phase 2B, 2C and 2D in 2025. Because lot sale revenue is recognized as construction progresses, revenue will fluctuate due to timing of construction activities.
3
Single Family Rentals
Rental income for the three and six months ended February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024 was consistent at $0.1 million for the three months ended and $0.2 million for the six month ended as both periods represented the 14 completed homes in our portfolio. An additional 17 homes are under contract to be built in Phase 2B starting in the spring of 2025.

| History & Strategy Pure Cycle Corporation has a strategic history of entering the land development industry, driven by its vision to enhance shareholder value and create integrated communities. Initially focused on water utility services, the company recognized the opportunity to expand its operations in the late 2010s as urban growth and housing demands increased. In 2010, Pure Cycle acquired the land that eventually became Sky Ranch and engaged in partnerships that allowed it to develop residential projects alongside its water utility offerings. This vertical integration enabled the company to provide essential services directly to the communities it was developing.

| OVERVIEW OF OPERATIONS Maximizing Land Development Opportunities: By developing single-family homes for rent on these properties, the company can enhance the value of its landholdings and generate consistent income. Recurring Revenue: SFR properties provide a steady, recurring revenue stream. This aligns with Pure Cycle’s strategy to balance its revenue mix. Leverage Market Demand: The SFR market has been booming, driven by increased demand for rental housing from families who prefer single-family homes over apartments but may not be ready or able to purchase a home. This demand is especially strong in suburban and near-urban areas, where Pure Cycle has land. Higher Return on Investment: Developing rental properties on their land potentially offers higher returns than simply selling lots or developing for sale. This allows Pure Cycle to capitalize on both land appreciation and rental income. Pure Cycle Corporation entered the single-family rental (SFR) market as a strategic move to diversify and expand its revenue streams. As a company originally focused on water rights and infrastructure development, Pure Cycle realized the potential in the rapidly growing demand for rental properties, particularly single-family homes. 2 1 3 4 25 SINGLE - FAMILY RENTALS |
