“Due to the continued success of our Sky Ranch Master Planned community, we now have three phases of lot development under construction accelerating the timing of delivering our lots to home builder customers as well as lots for our single-family rental segment.  As we complete final landscaping in Phase 2A, lot production has accelerated deliveries in the remaining half of our fiscal year with completion of approximately 211 lots in Phase 2B and substantial progress on our overlapping production of 228 lots in Phase 2C” commented Mark Harding, CEO of Pure Cycle. “Also contributing were record 2024 YTD water sales to oil and gas customers with a continued strong outlook for the rest of 2024 and into 2025,” continued Mr. Harding.

Q3 and YTD 2024 Financial Summary

Revenue

For the three months ended May 31, 2024, and 2023, we reported total revenues of $7.6 million and $6.9 million with $2.5 million and $3.6 million being generated in our water and wastewater resource development segment, $5.0 million and $3.2 million generated by our land development segment, and $0.1 million and less than $0.1 million reported in our single-family rental business.

For the nine months ended May 31, 2024, and 2023, we reported total revenues of $16.2 million and $11.2 million with $7.6 million and $5.9 million being generated in our water and wastewater resource development segment, $8.3 million and $5.2 million generated by our land development segment, and $0.4 million and less than $0.1 million reported in our single-family rental business.

For the three months ended May 31, 2024, and 2023, we sold 20 and 44 water or water and wastewater taps for $0.6 million and $1.3 million.  For the nine months ended May 31, 2024, and 2023, we sold 35 and 85 water or water and wastewater taps for $1.1 million and $2.4 million. We have sold 741 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 $20.0 million in additional water and wastewater tap fee revenue and cash over the next three to five years.

As of May 31, 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 May 31, 2024, Phase 2A is approximately 98% complete, Phase 2B is approximately 70% complete and Phase 2C is approximately 21% complete. Phase 2A is substantially completed with some landscaping items remaining. Phase 2B is expected to be complete by the end of Pure Cycle’s fiscal 2024 and Phase 2C is expected to be complete during Pure Cycle’s fiscal 2025.

As of May 31, 2024, the single-family rental business had 14 homes built and rented in Sky Ranch and 17 additional homes forecasted for construction in Phase 2B.  As noted in the prior quarters, due to the overwhelming demand for rental homes at Sky Ranch, we expect to have a total of 93 homes in Phase 2 with the ability to add more than 200 homes as Sky Ranch builds out.

“As expected, our land development activity has ramped up in the third quarter which we expect will continue into fiscal 2025 with multiple phases under development,” commented Marc Spezialy, CFO of Pure Cycle. “New home sales remain high, and we are excited to be able to offer an affordable housing product to builders in our Sky Ranch Master Planned Community. We are also preparing to begin construction in the fourth quarter on our next phase of single-family rentals, which will more than double the number of units we have to rent once Phase 2B is completed,” concluded Mr. Spezialy.  

Working Capital

We reported working capital (current assets less current liabilities) of $19.6 million as of May 31, 2024, with $20.4 million of cash and cash equivalents.

Q3 and YTD 2024 Operational Summary

Water and Wastewater Resource Development

Water deliveries decreased for the three months ended May 31, 2024, from 394 acre-feet delivered as compared to 564 acre-feet delivered in Q3 2023, primarily due to an unusually large volume of oil and gas water sales in Q3 2023. Water deliveries increased for the nine months ended May 31, 2024, to a record 1,422 acre-feet delivered as compared to 806 acre-feet delivered in the same period of 2023. Oil and gas operations are highly variable and dependent on oil prices, demand for gas, and timing of development of other leases in our service areas; however, our current expectation is for continued strong demand for oil and gas water sales through 2024 and 2025. As Sky Ranch continues to develop, we anticipate continued growth in our residential water and wastewater service revenues. Water and wastewater tap sales decreased in Q3 2024 and YTD 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 due to the timing of closings at Sky Ranch. Tap sales are driven by building permit applications and are not contractually established with the builders.

Land Development

Lot sales revenue increased to $4.8 million for the three months ended May 31, 2024 compared to $3.2 million in 2023.   Lot sales revenue increased to $7.9 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2024 compared to $5.1 million in 2023.  Increases in the quarter and year to date lot sales revenue are due to the timing of construction in Sky Ranch on Phase 2A, 2B and 2C. Because lot sales revenue is recognized as construction progresses, revenue will fluctuate due to timing of construction activities.

Single Family Rentals

Q1 2024 represented our first quarter of rental income for our 14 completed homes.  An additional 17 homes are forecasted for construction in Phase 2B in calendar 2024.

Ongoing Housing Deficit: Significant shortage remains despite recent construction efforts, indicating continued high demand. Stable Demand: Tens of thousands of new homes needed even without population growth, ensuring a strong market for developers. Affordability Issues: Only 5.1% of households in Denver can afford to buy, highlighting the need for more affordable housing options. Legislative Support: New Colorado law banning occupancy limits can increase demand for new homes as more individuals establish separate households. Rising Construction Needs: The housing deficit rose from 4.3 million units in 2021 to 4.5 million in 2022, underscoring the urgent need for new housing developments.
