![Graphic](cwco-20251231x10k003.jpg)

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Retail Segment

*Cayman Water Company Limited ("Cayman Water")*. Cayman Water operates under an exclusive retail license granted by the Cayman Islands government to provide water to customers within a prescribed service area on Grand Cayman that includes the Seven Mile Beach and West Bay areas, two of the three most populated areas in the Cayman Islands. Cayman Water owns and operates three seawater reverse osmosis desalination plants. Cayman Water and the Water Authority-Cayman ("WAC"), a government-owned utility and regulatory agency, are Grand Cayman's only water utilities.

Bulk Segment

*Consolidated Water (Bahamas) Limited ("CW-Bahamas").* We own 90.9% of CW-Bahamas, which provides bulk water under long-term contracts to the Water and Sewerage Corporation of The Bahamas ("WSC"), a government agency. CW-Bahamas owns and operates our largest desalination plant and one other desalination plant.

*Ocean Conversion (Cayman) Limited ("OC-Cayman").* OC-Cayman provides bulk water under long-term contracts to the WAC, which distributes the water to areas of Grand Cayman located outside of Cayman Water's exclusive retail license service area. OC-Cayman operates three seawater reverse osmosis desalination plants owned by the WAC.

Services Segment

*PERC Water Corporation ("PERC").* PERC designs, constructs, sells, operates and manages water, wastewater and water reuse infrastructure in the United States.

*Ramey Environmental Compliance, Inc. ("REC").* Effective October 1, 2023, we purchased, through our wholly-owned subsidiary PERC, a 100% ownership interest in REC, a Colorado company headquartered in Frederick, Colorado. REC operates and maintains water and wastewater treatment facilities and provides technical services to clients throughout the Rocky Mountain and Eastern Plains Regions of Colorado.

*DesalCo Limited ("DesalCo").* A Cayman Islands company, DesalCo provides design, management, engineering and construction services for desalination projects as well as management and engineering services relating to municipal water distribution and treatment. Serving as a subcontractor to OC-Cayman, DesalCo designed and constructed the four reverse osmosis plants that OC-Cayman sold to (and currently operates for) the WAC.

*Kalaeloa Desalco LLC ("Kalaeloa Desalco").* In September 2021, Kalaeloa Desalco was formed to pursue a project encompassing the design, construction, operations and maintenance of a seawater reverse osmosis desalination plant in Oahu, Hawaii. In June 2023, Kalaeloa Desalco signed a definitive agreement with the Honolulu Board of Water Supply to design, build, operate and maintain a 1.7 million gallons per day seawater reverse osmosis desalination plant in Oahu, Hawaii. Development of this plant is currently underway.

Manufacturing Segment

Aerex also offers engineering, design, consulting, inspection, training and equipment maintenance services to its customers.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Corporate

*Aquilex, Inc. ("Aquilex")*. Aquilex, a U.S. company located in Coral Springs, Florida, provides financial, engineering, information technology, administrative and supply chain management support services to all our subsidiaries and our affiliate. The expenses incurred by Aquilex to support the operations of our business segments, along with other various general and administrative expenses incurred by our company, are reported as "Corporate" in the segment information included in Item 7. Management's Discussion of Results of Operations and in Note 14 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements.

Affiliate

*Ocean Conversion (BVI) Ltd. ("OC-BVI").* We own 50% of the voting stock of OC-BVI, a British Virgin Islands company, which sells bulk water to the Government of the British Virgin Islands Water and Sewerage Department. We own an overall 43.53% equity interest in OC-BVI's profits and certain profit-sharing rights that raise our effective interest in OC-BVI's profits to approximately 45%. OC-BVI also pays our subsidiary, DesalCo, fees for certain engineering and administrative services. We account for our investment in OC-BVI under the equity method of accounting.

Discontinued Operations - Mexico Project Development

*Consolidated Water Cooperatief, U.A. ("CW-Cooperatief"), N.S.C. Agua, S.A. de C.V. ("NSC") and Aguas de Rosarito S.A.P.I. de C.V. ("AdR").* CW-Cooperatief is a wholly-owned Netherlands subsidiary incorporated in 2010. CW-Cooperatief owns 99.9% of NSC, a Mexican company. NSC owns 100% of AdR. NSC and AdR were formed to pursue a project encompassing the design, construction, ownership and operation of a 100 million gallon per day seawater reverse osmosis desalination plant which was to be located in northern Baja California, Mexico and accompanying pipeline to deliver water to the Mexican potable water system (the "Project").

In August 2016, the Public Private Partnership Agreement for the Project (the "APP Contract") was executed between AdR, the Comisión Estatal del Agua de Baja California ("CEA"), the Government of Baja California as represented by the Secretary of Planning and Finance and the Public Utilities Commission of Tijuana ("CESPT").

In June 2020, the Director General of CEA and the Director General of CESPT terminated the APP Contract. As a result of the cancellation of the APP Contract, we discontinued all development activities associated with the Project and in June 2024 we sold the land NSC purchased for the Project. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of CW-Cooperatief, NSC and AdR, as well as all expenses we incurred in connection with our international arbitration with the Mexico government to obtain reimbursement for the costs we incurred in connection with the Project are reported as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements. We dissolved/terminated AdR in the first quarter of 2026 and expect to complete the dissolution and termination of CW-Cooperatief and NSC by mid-2026.

**Our Operations**

For fiscal year 2025, our retail water, bulk water, services and manufacturing segments generated approximately 26%, 25%, 35% and 14%, respectively, of our consolidated revenue. For additional information about our business segments and geographical information about our operating revenue and long-lived assets, see Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements at ITEM 8 of this Annual Report.

**Retail Water Operations**

For fiscal years 2025, 2024, and 2023, our retail water operations accounted for approximately 26%, 24%, and 17%, respectively, of our consolidated revenue. This business produces and supplies potable water to end-users, including residential, commercial and government customers in the Cayman Islands.

We sell water through our retail operations under a license issued in July 1990 by the Cayman Islands government (the "1990 license") that granted Cayman Water the exclusive right to provide potable water to customers within its licensed service area. Pursuant to the 1990 license, Cayman Water has the exclusive right to produce potable water and distribute

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

it by pipeline to its licensed service area, which consists of two of the three most populated areas of Grand Cayman: Seven Mile Beach and West Bay.

The 1990 license was originally scheduled to expire in July 2010 but was extended several times by the Cayman Islands government in order to provide the parties with additional time to negotiate the terms of a new license agreement. The most recent express extension of the license expired on January 31, 2018. From that date through February 18, 2025, we continued to operate under the terms of the 1990 license, treating such terms as operative notwithstanding the expiration of the express extension. We continued to pay a royalty of 7.5% of the revenue we collected as required under the 1990 license.

In October 2016, the Government of the Cayman Islands passed legislation which created a new utilities regulation and competition office ("OfReg") and, in April 2017, passed supplemental legislation which transferred responsibility for the economic regulation of the water utility sector and the negotiations with us for a new retail license to OfReg.

Under the new regulatory legislation passed in October 2016, Cayman Water was required to first be granted a concession by the government before obtaining a new (or renewing the old) retail operations license. On February 18, 2025, Cayman Water received a new concession from the government that authorizes and maintains the terms of the 1990 license until a new license from OfReg is negotiated and enacted. Negotiations between Cayman Water and OfReg for a new license remain on-going.

See also ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS and ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Material Commitments, Expenditures and Contingencies - *Cayman Water Retail License*.

Our retail operations in the Cayman Islands produce potable water at three seawater reverse osmosis desalination plants in Grand Cayman located at our Abel Castillo Water Works ("ACWW") and West Bay sites. We own the land for our ACWW and West Bay plants. The current aggregate production capacity of the two plants located at ACWW is 3.0 million gallons of water per day. The production capacity of the West Bay plant is 2.0 million gallons of water per day.

Electricity is supplied to our plants by Caribbean Utilities Co. Ltd., a publicly traded utility company. We maintain diesel engine-driven standby generators at all three retail plant sites with sufficient capacity to operate our distribution pumps and other essential equipment during any temporary interruptions in electricity supply. Standby generation capacity is available at our ACWW plants and West Bay plant to operate a portion of the water production capacity as well. We generate renewable energy to power our distribution pumps at ACWW using solar panels installed on the top of one of our water storage reservoirs.

Our distribution system is connected to the distribution system of the WAC. From time to time, the WAC has purchased water from our retail plants.

Our pipeline system on Grand Cayman covers the Seven Mile Beach and West Bay areas and consists of approximately 100 miles of potable water pipeline. We extend our distribution system periodically as demand warrants. We have a main pipe loop covering the Seven Mile Beach and West Bay areas. We place extensions of smaller diameter pipe off our main pipe to service new developments in our service area. This system of building branches from the main pipe keeps construction costs low and allows us to provide service to new areas in a timely manner. Developers are responsible for laying the pipeline within their developments at their own cost, but in accordance with our specifications. When a development is completed, the developer then transfers operation and maintenance of the pipeline to us.

We bill our customers on a monthly basis based on metered consumption and bills are typically collected within 30 to 45 days after the billing date. Receivables not collected within 45 days subject the customer to disconnection from water service. The provision for credit losses for our retail operations has historically represented less than 1% of our total annual retail sales. In addition to their past due invoice balance, customers that have had their service disconnected must pay re-connection charges.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Demand on our water production and pipeline distribution varies throughout the year. Demand depends upon various factors, most notably rainfall and the number of tourists staying on Grand Cayman during any particular time of the year. In general, the majority of tourists come from the United States during the winter which is also the dry season in the Cayman Islands.

For fiscal years 2025, 2024, and 2023, our bulk water operations accounted for approximately 25%, 25%, and 19%, respectively, of our consolidated revenue. These operations produce potable water from seawater and sell this water to government-owned utilities in the Cayman Islands and The Bahamas, which then distribute the water to end users.

*Bulk Water Operations in the Cayman Islands*

Through our wholly-owned subsidiary OC-Cayman we provide bulk water to the WAC, a government-owned utility and regulatory agency, under two agreements. The WAC in turn distributes that water to properties in Grand Cayman outside of our retail license area.

The water we provide to the WAC is produced at three seawater reverse osmosis desalination plants in Grand Cayman owned by the WAC but designed and built by DesalCo and operated by OC-Cayman: the North Sound, Red Gate and North Side Water Works ("NSWW") plants, which have production capacities of approximately 1.6 million, 2.6 million and 2.4 million gallons of water per day, respectively. The plants we operate for the WAC are located on land owned by the WAC.

Our agreement with the WAC for the North Sound and NSWW plants expires on July 1, 2026. Our agreement with the WAC for the Red Gate plant expires in 2034.

*Bulk Water Operations in The Bahamas*

We sell bulk water in The Bahamas through our majority-owned subsidiary, CW-Bahamas, to the WSC, which distributes the water through its own pipeline system to residential, commercial and tourist properties on the Island of New Providence.

We supply bulk water in The Bahamas from our Windsor and Blue Hills plants.

Our water supply agreement with the WSC for our Windsor plant, which has a capacity of 2.8 million gallons per day, expires in August 2033 and requires us to deliver and requires the WSC to purchase a minimum of 16.8 million gallons per week.

We supply water from the Blue Hills plant, our largest seawater reverse osmosis desalination facility with a capacity of 12.0 million gallons per day, under the terms of a water supply agreement with the WSC that expires in March 2032 that requires us to deliver and requires the WSC to purchase a minimum of 63.0 million gallons of water each week.

**Services Operations**

For fiscal years 2025, 2024, and 2023, our services operations accounted for approximately 35%, 38% and 54%, respectively, of our consolidated revenue.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

We provide design, engineering and construction services for desalination infrastructure projects through DesalCo, an original equipment manufacturer of seawater reverse osmosis desalination plants. DesalCo also provides management and procurement services for desalination plants and engineering services relating to municipal water production, distribution and treatment. Presently, DesalCo is providing engineering, management and purchasing services to CW-Bahamas and our affiliate OC-BVI in the British Virgin Islands. In the past, DesalCo has provided consulting services to the WSC and constructed the desalination plants sold by OC-Cayman to the WAC.

In October 2019, we acquired 51% of the common stock of PERC, a U.S. company headquartered in Fountain Valley, California, which commenced operations in 1998. In August 2020, we acquired an additional 10% of PERC, increasing our ownership of this subsidiary to 61%. In January 2023, we acquired the remaining 39% ownership interest in PERC. PERC designs, constructs, sells, operates and manages water, wastewater and water reuse infrastructure. PERC also provides management services for water, wastewater and water reuse infrastructure under long-term operations and maintenance contracts. PERC's primary markets are California and the Southwest U.S., but it conducts business in other areas of the U.S.

Effective October 1, 2023, we purchased, through our wholly-owned subsidiary PERC, a 100% ownership interest in REC, a Colorado company headquartered in Frederick, Colorado. REC operates and maintains water and wastewater treatment facilities and provides technical services to clients throughout the Rocky Mountain and Eastern Plains Regions of Colorado.

**Manufacturing Operations**

For fiscal years 2025, 2024, and 2023, our manufacturing operations accounted for approximately 14%, 13% and 10%, respectively, of our consolidated revenue. Our manufacturing operations consist of Aerex, an original equipment manufacturer and service provider of a wide range of specialized and custom products applicable to desalination, municipal water treatment and industrial water and wastewater treatment. Aerex's products include reverse osmosis desalination equipment, membrane separation equipment, filtration equipment, piping systems, vessels and custom fabricated components. Aerex's manufacturing facility and headquarters are located in Fort Pierce, Florida and substantially all of its customers are U.S. companies.

**Affiliate Operations**

Our affiliate, OC-BVI, sells water to the Government of the British Virgin Islands Water and Sewerage Department ("BVIW&S"). We own 50% of the voting shares of OC-BVI and have an overall 43.53% equity interest in the profits of OC-BVI. We also own separate profit-sharing rights in OC-BVI that raise our effective interest in OC-BVI's profits from 43.53% to approximately 45%. Sage Water Holdings (BVI) Limited ("Sage") owns the remaining 50% of the voting shares of OC-BVI and the remaining 55% interest in its profits. Under the Articles of Association of OC-BVI, we have the right to appoint three of the six Directors of OC-BVI. Sage is entitled to appoint the remaining three Directors. In the event of a tied vote of the Directors, the President of the Caribbean Water and Wastewater Association, a regional trade association comprised primarily of government representatives, is entitled to appoint a junior director to cast a deciding vote.

DesalCo provides certain engineering and administrative services to OC-BVI for a monthly fee and a bonus arrangement which provides for payment of 4% of the net operating income of OC-BVI.

We account for our investment in OC-BVI using the equity method of accounting.

OC-BVI sells bulk water to BVIW&S, which distributes the water through its own pipeline system to residential, commercial and tourist properties on the islands of Tortola and Jost Van Dyke in the British Virgin Islands.

OC-BVI owns and operates a desalination plant located at Bar Bay, Tortola with a capacity of 720,000 gallons per day. Pursuant to a water supply agreement with the BVI government, OC-BVI is required to supply up to 600,000 gallons per day to the BVI government. This water supply agreement expires in March 2031.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

OC-BVI purchases electrical power to operate this plant from the BVI Electricity Corporation and operates diesel engine-driven emergency power generators which can produce 100% of the plant's production capacity when the BVI Electricity Corporation is unable to provide power to the plant.

OC-BVI's plant on the island of Jost Van Dyke has a capacity of 60,000 gallons per day. This plant operates under a 10-year contract with the BVI government that expired July 8, 2013. Pursuant to the contract, OC-BVI is operating the plant on a year-to-year basis until the BVI government informs OC-BVI of its intention to extend the existing contract or enter into a new agreement. We purchase electrical power to operate this plant from the BVI Electricity Corporation.

**Reverse Osmosis Technology**

The conversion of seawater to potable water is called desalination. The primary method of seawater desalination used throughout the world is reverse osmosis. Reverse osmosis is a fluid separation process in which the saline water (i.e. seawater) is pressurized and the fresh water is separated from the saline water by passing through a semi-permeable membrane which rejects the salts. The saline water is first passed through a pretreatment system, which generally consists of fine filtration and, if required, treatment chemicals. Pre-treatment removes suspended solids and organics which could cause fouling of the membrane surface. Next, a high-pressure pump pressurizes the saline water thus enabling approximately 40% conversion of the saline water to fresh water as it passes through the membrane, while more than 99% of the dissolved salts are rejected and remain in the now concentrated saline water. This concentrate is discharged without passing through the membrane, and the remaining hydraulic energy in the concentrate is transferred to the initial saline feed water stream with an energy recovery device thus reducing the total energy requirement for the reverse osmosis system. The final step is post-treatment, which consists of stabilizing the produced fresh water and/or removing undesirable dissolved gases, adjusting the pH and (if necessary) the mineral content, and providing chlorination to prepare it for distribution.

We use reverse osmosis technology to convert seawater to potable water at all of the desalination plants we construct and operate. We believe that this technology is the most effective and efficient conversion process for our markets. However, we are always seeking ways to maximize efficiencies in our current processes and investigating new, more efficient processes to convert seawater to potable water. The equipment at our desalination plants is among the most energy efficient available and we monitor and maintain the equipment in an efficient manner. As a result of our decades of experience in seawater desalination, we believe our expertise and experience with respect to the development and operation of desalination plants and similar facilities is easily transferable to locations outside of our historical operating areas as demonstrated by the recent award to us of a reverse osmosis desalination project in Honolulu, Hawaii, USA.

**Wastewater Treatment Technology**

Our approach to wastewater treatment integrates advanced technologies and processes to ensure high-quality reuse water while addressing environmental and operational concerns. Typical technologies employed include micro and ultra filtration, reverse osmosis, and ultraviolet advanced oxidation systems, often with sodium hypochlorite or hydrogen peroxide as oxidizers, to meet the stringent water quality parameters in the areas we serve. This is particularly relevant for applications like reuse and indirect potable reuse, where safety and quality are paramount.

We utilize Membrane Bioreactor ("MBR") technology, which is a wastewater treatment process that has been used for several decades to produce high quality recycled water for non-potable reuse. MBR technology, which integrates micro or ultra-filtration membranes with biological wastewater treatment processes, offers several advantages. These include a reduced physical footprint, which is crucial in areas where space is at a premium, and the production of higher quality treated effluent, which is vital for ensuring the safety and reliability of water reuse. Additionally, MBR's capability to handle more challenging influent makes it a versatile solution for a variety of wastewater treatment needs.

We employ various methods to improve the aesthetic and environmental integration of our clients' facilities. We conceal equipment and housing technologies in buildings that are both aesthetically pleasing and low odor, thereby addressing two of the common challenges in wastewater treatment facilities: odor and visual impact. This not only enhances the quality of life for nearby residents but also demonstrates a commitment to environmental stewardship.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Furthermore, the vertical integration of technology within our operations constitutes a strategic approach to improving efficiency in construction and operational phases. We believe this integration leads to cost savings, faster project completion times, reduction of raw material usage, and smoother operational processes.

Overall, our strategies and technologies reflect a holistic approach to wastewater treatment, emphasizing efficiency, environmental sensitivity, and the production of high-quality treated water for various reuse applications.

**Raw Materials and Sources of Supply**

All materials, parts and supplies essential to our business operations are obtained from multiple sources and we use the latest industry technology. Prior to our acquisition of Aerex, we did not manufacture any parts or components for equipment essential to our business. Aerex has manufactured key components for our desalination plants and we expect Aerex to continue to do so from time to time, however, our other businesses are not dependent on Aerex.

Our access to seawater for processing into potable water is granted through our licenses and contracts with governments of the various jurisdictions in which we operate.

**Seasonal Variations in Our Business**

Demand for our water in the Cayman Islands, The Bahamas and the British Virgin Islands is affected by variations in the level of tourism and rainfall. Tourism in our service areas is affected by the economies of the tourists' home countries, primarily the United States and Europe, terrorist activity and perceived threats thereof, global health concerns such as COVID-19, and increased costs of fuel and airfare. In the Cayman Islands, we normally sell more water during the first and second quarters of the year, when the number of tourists is greater and local rainfall is less than in the third and fourth quarters.

The business conducted by Aerex, REC, and PERC is generally not subject to seasonal variations.

**Government Regulations, Custom Duties and Taxes**

Our operations and activities are subject to the governmental regulations and taxes of the countries in which we operate. The following summary of regulatory developments and legislation does not purport to describe all present and proposed regulation and legislation that may affect our businesses. Legislative or regulatory requirements currently applicable to our businesses may change in the future. Any such changes could impose new obligations on us that may adversely affect our business and operating results. The following paragraphs set forth some of the key governmental regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate outside of the United States.

Cayman Islands

The Cayman Islands have no taxes on profits, income, distributions, capital gains or appreciation. We have exemptions from, or receive concessionary rates of customs duties on, certain capital expenditures for plant and major consumable spare parts and supplies imported into the Cayman Islands under our retail water license. We do not pay import duty or taxes on reverse osmosis membranes, electric pumps and motors, and chemicals, but we do pay duty at the rate of 10% of the cost, including insurance and transportation to the Cayman Islands, of other plant and associated materials and equipment to manufacture or supply water in the Seven Mile Beach or West Bay areas. We have been advised by the Government of the Cayman Islands that we will not receive any duty concessions in any new retail water license signed with the government.

The Bahamas

Under the current laws of the Commonwealth of The Bahamas, no income, corporation, capital gains or similar taxes are payable by us. We are required to pay an annual business license fee (the calculation of which is based on our preceding year's financial statements) which to date has not been material to the results of our Bahamas operations. We are also required to pay a value added tax on materials and services we purchase and bill a value added tax for the water we sell.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Markets and Service Areas**

We operate in the Cayman Islands, The Bahamas, the United States and the British Virgin Islands. We believe that potential new markets for us include (i) any location where a need for potable water exists and reverse osmosis desalination of seawater or brackish water is an economically viable means of meeting such need; (ii) any location with a need for the water treatment and water reuse infrastructure development and management services we provide; and (iii) those new customers that require specialized water production and treatment products and systems such as those we manufacture.

*Cayman Islands.* The Cayman Islands are a British Overseas Territory situated in the central western Caribbean Sea. The Cayman Islands government, through the WAC, supplies water to the areas of Grand Cayman that are not within our licensed area, as well as to Cayman Brac. We operate all but one of the reverse osmosis desalination plants owned by the WAC on Grand Cayman and supply water under three agreements held by OC-Cayman with the WAC.

According to the most recent information published by the Economics and Statistics Office of the Cayman Islands Government, the population of the Cayman Islands was estimated in 2024 to be 88,833. According to the figures published by the Department of Tourism Statistics Information Center, in 2025 as compared to 2024, tourist air arrivals increased by 2.9% to approximately 450,000 and tourist cruise ship arrivals decreased by 1.4% to approximately 1,062,000.

Our water sales in the Cayman Islands are more positively impacted by stay-over tourists that arrive by air than by those arriving by cruise ship, since cruise ship tourists generally only visit the island for less than one day and do not stay in hotels or condominiums. Our water sales in the Cayman Islands are also greatly impacted by rainfall patterns and amounts on Grand Cayman.

*The Bahamas.* The Bahamas are an independent nation situated in the western Atlantic Ocean just off the east coast of the State of Florida, USA. The Bahamas government, through the WSC, supplies all of the piped water on the island of New Providence, Bahamas, which includes Nassau, the largest city, political capital and commercial hub of The Bahamas. We supply water to the WSC through the water supply agreements for our Blue Hills and Windsor plants, which are located in Nassau. New Providence is the most populous island in The Bahamas, with more than 70% of the country's population. A 2022 census placed the population of New Providence at approximately 297,000. According to statistics published by the Bahamas Ministry of Tourism, in 2025 as compared to 2024, the number of air arrivals decreased by 2% to approximately 1,290,000 and cruise ship arrivals increased by 6% to approximately 4,153,000.

*British Virgin Islands*. The British Virgin Islands are a British Overseas Territory situated east of Puerto Rico. They comprise 16 inhabited islands out of approximately 60 islands and cays, with Tortola being the largest and most populated. The British Virgin Islands serve as a hub for yacht-chartering businesses. According to government statements, tourism arrivals to the British Virgin Islands in 2025 increased by 10% compared to 2024.

**Competition**

*Cayman Islands.* Pursuant to our license granted by the Cayman Islands government, we have the exclusive right to provide potable, piped water within our licensed service area on Grand Cayman.

We are the only non-government-owned public water utility on Grand Cayman. The Cayman Islands government, through the WAC, supplies water to parts of Grand Cayman located outside of our licensed service area. Although we have no competition within our exclusive retail license service area for potable water, our ability to expand our service area is at the discretion of the Cayman Islands government. We have competed with companies such as Veolia, IDE Technologies and small local contractors for bulk water supply contracts with the WAC, and expect to compete with these and other companies for any new water supply contracts awarded by the WAC.

*The Bahamas*. We have competed with companies such as Veolia, IDE Technologies, and TSG for the contracts with The Bahamas government to build and operate seawater desalination plants in the past. We expect to compete with these companies and others for any future water supply contracts in The Bahamas.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

*British Virgin Islands*. In the British Virgin Islands, Veolia operates seawater reverse osmosis desalination plants in West End, Tortola, and on Virgin Gorda and generally bids against OC-BVI for projects. Seven Seas Water owns and operates a 2.75 million gallon per day desalination plant in Parakeeta Bay, Tortola for the British Virgin Islands government. We expect that OC-BVI will likely compete against Veolia, Seven Seas Water, TSG and other parties for any future business opportunities that may arise in the British Virgin Islands.

*United States*. Aerex competes in the highly fragmented industry for manufactured water production and treatment equipment and systems against a large number of manufacturers, fabricators and service providers, many of which have greater resources than Aerex.

PERC and REC compete in the highly fragmented industry for water treatment and water reuse infrastructure development and management against a large number of companies, many of which have greater resources than PERC and REC such as Veolia, Inframark, and Jacobs Solutions.

**Environmental and Health Regulatory Matters**

*Cayman Islands.* With respect to our Cayman Islands operations, we operate our water plants in accordance with Cayman Islands laws and regulations. We are licensed by the WAC to extract seawater from wells and discharge concentrated seawater, which is a byproduct of our desalination process, into deep disposal wells.

Our Cayman Islands retail water license and bulk water operating contracts require our potable water to meet the World Health Organization's Guidelines for Drinking-Water Quality and contain less than 200 mg/l of total dissolved solids.

*The Bahamas and British Virgin Islands.* With respect to our Bahamian operations and OC-BVI's British Virgin Islands operations, we and OC-BVI are required by our water supply contracts to take all reasonable measures to prevent pollution of the environment. We are licensed by the Bahamian government to discharge concentrated seawater, which is a by-product of our desalination process, into deep disposal wells. OC-BVI is licensed by the British Virgin Islands government to discharge concentrated seawater into the sea.

At several of our locations, hydrogen sulfide gas is present in the seawater and we are contractually obligated to operate our plants in a manner designed to remove hydrogen sulfide gas from our product water and to prevent the emission of airborne hydrogen sulfide gas into the environment.

*United States.* Consistent with other U.S. companies, Aerex, PERC, Kalaeloa Desalco and REC must comply with various federal laws and regulations, such as those administered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, as well as state and local laws and regulations.

We are not aware of any existing or pending environmental legislation which may negatively affect our operations. Presently, we do not have any outstanding issues with any regulatory authority.

**Human Capital**

We are committed to a work environment that is safe, welcoming and encouraging. To achieve our plans and goals, it is imperative that we attract and retain top talent. In order to do so, we aim to provide a workplace with opportunities for our employees to grow and develop professionally, supported by strong compensation, benefits, and other incentives. We have historically experienced low employee turnover.

As of March 9, 2026, we employed a total of 293 persons, 65 in the Cayman Islands, 206 in the United States, 20 in The Bahamas and two in The Netherlands. We also managed the five employees of OC-BVI in the British Virgin Islands. We have 20 management employees and 58 administrative and clerical employees. The remaining employees are engaged in engineering, purchasing, plant maintenance and operations, pipe laying and repair, leak detection, new customer connections, meter reading and laboratory analysis of water quality. We have no collective bargaining agreements with our employees, and none are represented by labor unions. We consider our relationship with our employees to be very good.

Investing in our common stock involves risks. Before investing in our common stock, you should consider carefully the factors discussed below and the information contained in this Annual Report. Each of these risks, as well as other risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial, could adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, and cause the value of our common stock to decline, which may result in the loss of part, or all, of your investment.

**Our exclusive license to provide water to retail customers in the Cayman Islands is presently under renegotiation with OfReg, the Cayman Islands government utility regulatory authority, and we are presently unable to predict the outcome of these on-going negotiations.**

We sell water through our retail operations under the 1990 license that granted Cayman Water the exclusive right to provide potable water to customers within its licensed service area. Pursuant to the 1990 license, Cayman Water has the exclusive right to produce potable water and distribute it by pipeline to its licensed service area, which consists of two of the three most populated areas of Grand Cayman Island: Seven Mile Beach and West Bay. In 2025, 2024, and 2023, we generated approximately 26%, 24% and 17%, respectively, of our consolidated revenue and 39%, 38% and 26%, respectively, of our consolidated gross profit from the retail water operations conducted under the 1990 license.

The 1990 license was originally scheduled to expire in July 2010 but was extended several times by the Cayman Islands government in order to provide the parties with additional time to negotiate the terms of a new license agreement. The most recent express extension of the license expired on January 31, 2018. From that date through February 18, 2025, we continued to operate under the terms of the 1990 license, treating such terms as operative notwithstanding the expiration of the express extension. We continued to pay a royalty of 7.5% of the revenue we collected as required under the 1990 license.

In October 2016, the Government of the Cayman Islands passed legislation which created OfReg and, in April 2017, passed supplemental legislation which transferred responsibility for the economic regulation of the water utility sector and the negotiations with us for a new retail license to OfReg.

Under the new regulatory legislation passed in October 2016, Cayman Water was required to first be granted a concession by the government before obtaining a new (or renewing the old) retail operations license. On February 18, 2025, Cayman Water received a new concession from the government that authorizes and maintains the terms of the 1990 license until a

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

new license from OfReg is negotiated and enacted. Negotiations between Cayman Water and OfReg for the new license remain on-going.

We have been informed during our retail license negotiations, both by OfReg and its predecessor in these negotiations, that they seek to restructure the terms of the license in a manner that could significantly reduce the operating income and cash flows we have historically generated from our retail license. We are presently unable to determine what impact the resolution of our retail license negotiations will have on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows but such resolution could result in a material reduction (or the loss) of the operating income and cash flows we have historically generated from our retail operations and could require us to record impairment losses to reduce the carrying values of our retail segment assets. Such impairment losses could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

**Periodically, our Bahamas subsidiary experiences substantial delays in the collection of its accounts receivable. As a result, our Bahamas subsidiary could have insufficient liquidity to continue operations, and our consolidated financial results could be materially adversely affected.**

CW-Bahamas' accounts receivable balances (which include accrued interest) due from the WSC amounted to $20.7 million and $28.4 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. Approximately 71% and 81% of the accounts receivable balances were delinquent as of those dates, respectively. As of February 28, 2026, this receivable amounted to $22.6 million, of which 75% was delinquent. The delay in collecting these accounts receivable has adversely impacted the liquidity of this subsidiary.

From time to time (including presently), CW-Bahamas has experienced delays in collecting its accounts receivable from the WSC. When these delays occur, we hold discussions and meetings with representatives of the WSC and the government of The Bahamas. All previous delinquent accounts receivable from the WSC, including accrued interest thereon, were eventually paid in full. Based upon this payment history, we have not provided for a material allowance for credit losses for CW-Bahamas' accounts receivable from the WSC as of December 31, 2025, or prior periods.

We continue to be in frequent contact with officials of The Bahamas government, who continue to express their intention to significantly reduce CW-Bahamas' delinquent accounts receivable balances. However, we are unable to determine when or if such reduction will occur.

In a report dated October 6, 2022, Moody's Investor Services ("Moody's") downgraded The Bahamas' long-term issuer and senior unsecured ratings to B1 from Ba3. Moody's also lowered The Bahamas' local currency ceiling to Baa3 from Baa2 and its foreign currency ceiling to Ba1 from Baa3. Moody's has maintained these ratings through the date of its most current report issued in April 2025. Based upon our review of this Moody's correspondence, we continue to believe that no material allowance for credit losses is required for CW-Bahamas' accounts receivable from the WSC.

If CW-Bahamas is unable to collect a significant portion of its delinquent accounts receivable, one or more of the following events may occur: (i) CW-Bahamas may not have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations; (ii) we may be required to cease the recognition of revenue on CW-Bahamas' water supply agreements with the WSC; and (iii) we may be required to provide a material allowance for credit losses for CW-Bahamas' accounts receivable. Any of these events could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

**The profitability of our contracts is dependent upon our ability to accurately estimate construction and operating costs.**

The cost estimates we prepare in connection with the construction and operation of our water plants, the water infrastructure we construct and sell to third parties, and our manufacturing contracts, are subject to inherent uncertainties. Additionally, the terms of our water supply contracts may require us to guarantee the price of water on a per unit basis, subject to certain annual inflation and monthly energy cost adjustments, and to assume the risk that the costs associated with producing this water may be greater than anticipated. Because we base our contract prices in part on our estimation of future construction, manufacturing and operating costs, the profitability of our plants and our manufacturing and operations and maintenance contracts is dependent on our ability to estimate these costs accurately. The cost of materials

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

and services and the cost of the delivery of such services may increase significantly after we submit our bid for a contract, which could cause the gross profit for a contract to be less than we anticipated when the bid was made. The profit margins we initially expect to generate from an operations and maintenance contract could be further reduced if future operating costs for that contract exceed our estimates of such costs. Any construction, manufacturing, and operating costs for our contracts that significantly exceed our initial estimates could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

**Substantial changes to fiscal, regulation and other federal policies could adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.**

Significant changes in, and uncertainty with respect to, legislation, regulation, government policy and economic conditions could adversely affect our business. Specific legislative and regulatory proposals that could have a material impact on us include, but are not limited to, modifications to international trade policy (such as tariffs); public company reporting requirements; and environmental regulation.

We cannot predict what actions may ultimately be taken with respect to tariffs or trade relations between the U.S. and other countries, what products may be subject to such actions, or what actions may be taken by the other countries in retaliation. Accordingly, it is difficult to predict how such actions may impact our business, or the business or habits of our customers. Our business operations, as well as the businesses of our customers on which we are substantially dependent, are located in countries at risk for escalating trade disputes, including the U.S. Any resulting trade wars could have a significant adverse effect on world trade and could adversely impact our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

**Certain of PERC's contracts with its customers, including the contract with the Board of Water Supply of the City of Honolulu, Hawaii, may be terminated at any time at the customer's convenience or with relatively short advance notice. The termination of any of these contracts prior to their full performance may result in us realizing less than the full consideration payable under the contract and may negatively impact our financial results.**

Certain of PERC's contracts with its customers, and substantially all of its contracts with governments or municipalities, may be terminated at any time at the customer's convenience with no or relatively short advance notice. Our business is highly dependent on the purchase of our products and services by government and municipalities, and we believe that contracts with similar termination provisions will continue to be a source of a substantial portion of our revenue for the foreseeable future.

If a customer terminates one of our contracts for convenience, we generally may recover, at most, our incurred or committed costs, settlement expenses, and payment for work completed or products delivered prior to the termination. As such, the termination of any of these contracts prior to their stated term may result in us realizing less than the full consideration payable under the contract. If any such contract is terminated prior to us performing a substantial portion of the work to be performed or delivering a substantial portion of the products to be delivered, prior to the termination, such termination may have a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations.

**A significant portion of our consolidated revenue is derived from our water supply agreements with the WSC. The loss of the WSC as a customer would adversely affect us.**

One bulk water customer, the WSC, accounted for approximately 22% of our consolidated revenue for 2025. If, for financial or other reasons, the WSC does not comply with the terms of our water supply agreements, our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected.

**Our operations are affected by tourism and are subject to seasonal fluctuations and other factors beyond our control that could affect the demand for our water.**

Demand for our water in the Cayman Islands and The Bahamas is affected by variations in the level of tourism and local weather, primarily rainfall. Tourism in our service areas is affected by the economies of the tourists' home countries, primarily the United States and Europe, terrorist activity and perceived threats thereof, global health concerns such as

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

COVID-19, and increased costs of fuel and airfare. In the Cayman Islands, we normally sell more water during the first and second quarters of the year, when the number of tourists is greater and local rainfall is less than in the third and fourth quarters. A downturn in tourism or greater than expected rainfall in the locations we serve could adversely impact our results of operations and cash flows. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the resulting cessation of tourism to the Cayman Islands through August 2022 significantly reduced the demand for our water and our retail segment's profitability.

**Performance shortfalls under any of our bulk supply contracts could result in penalties or cancellation of the contract.**

Our bulk water supply agreements require us to meet specified minimum quality, quantity and energy consumption guarantees. Membrane fouling or other technical problems could occur at any of our plants, and if we are unable to meet the guarantees due to such technical problems, we could be in default of the supply agreement and subject to various adverse consequences, including financial penalties or cancellation of the agreement.

**Our operations could be harmed by natural disasters such as hurricanes or earthquakes.**

A natural disaster could cause major damage to our equipment and properties and the properties of our customers, including the large tourist properties in our areas of operation. For example, in January 2020, Grand Cayman experienced an earthquake which damaged three of our eight potable water storage tanks. Any future disaster could cause us to lose use of our equipment and properties and incur additional repair costs. Damage to our customers' properties and the adverse impact on tourism could result in a decrease in water demand. A natural disaster could also disrupt the delivery of equipment and supplies, including electricity, necessary to our operations. These and other possible effects of natural disasters could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

**Contamination of our water may cause disruption in our services and adversely affect our revenue**.

Our feed water and/or processed water may become contaminated by natural occurrences and by inadvertent or intentional human interference, including acts of terrorism. If our feed water and/or processed water becomes contaminated, we may have to interrupt our supply of desalinated potable water until we are able to install treatment equipment or substitute the flow of water from an uncontaminated water source. In addition, we may incur significant costs in order to treat contaminated feed or processed water through expansion of our current treatment facilities, or development of new treatment methods. An inability by us to substitute feed water from an uncontaminated water source or to adequately treat the contaminated plant feed water or our processed water in a cost-effective manner may have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

**Potential government decisions, actions and regulations could negatively affect our operations.**

We are subject to the local regulations of the countries in which we operate, all of which are subject to change. Any government that regulates our operations may issue legislation or adopt new regulations, including but not limited to:

● restricting foreign ownership (by us);

● providing for the expropriation of our assets by the government;

● providing for nationalization of public utilities by the government;

● providing for different water quality standards;

● unilaterally changing or renegotiating our license and agreements;

● restricting the importation or use, and/or imposing tariffs on certain goods and materials from foreign countries;

● restricting the transfer of U.S. currency; or

● causing currency exchange fluctuations/devaluations or enacting changes in tax laws.

As new laws and regulations are issued, we may be required to modify our operations and business strategy, which we may be unable to do in a cost-effective manner. Failure by us to comply with applicable regulations could result in the loss of our authorizations to operate, the assessment of penalties or fines, or otherwise may have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Unforeseen environmental costs could adversely affect our business and results of operations.**

We are subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations concerning environmental protection, including laws addressing water quality and contamination, the discharge of pollutants into the air and water, the management and disposal of hazardous substances and wastes, and the cleanup of contaminated sites. In particular, we face increasing complexity in our operations as we adjust to new and future requirements relating to water quality, the composition of our other products, their safe use, the energy consumption associated with our operations, and climate change laws and regulations. If we were to violate or become liable under environmental laws or if our products become non-compliant with environmental laws, we could incur substantial costs or face other sanctions, which may include restrictions on operating in certain jurisdictions. Our potential exposure includes fines and civil or criminal sanctions, third-party property damage, personal injury claims and clean-up costs. Further, liability under some environmental laws relating to contaminated sites can be imposed retroactively on a joint and several basis, and without any finding of noncompliance or fault. The amount and timing of costs to comply with environmental laws are difficult to predict. In addition, any complaints or lawsuits against us based on water quality and contamination may receive negative publicity that can damage our reputation and adversely affect our business and trading price of our common stock.

**If we fail to abide by laws, rules and regulations relating to human and workers' rights, we could be subject to various actions and our reputation, business and financial results could be adversely affected.**

We are subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations concerning human rights, including laws prohibiting discrimination, harassment, and forced or child labor, and establishing wage and hour standards. If we were to violate or become liable under human or workers' laws, we could incur substantial costs or face other sanctions. Our potential exposure includes fines and civil or criminal sanctions or liability. The amount and timing of costs to comply with human and workers' rights laws are difficult to predict. Additionally, the success of our business depends on earning and maintaining the trust and confidence of our customers, suppliers, stockholders and the communities in which we operate, our ability to compete for future opportunities, and our reputation among existing and potential clients and partners. Our reputation is critical to our business and could be impacted by events that may be difficult or impossible to control, and costly or impossible to remediate. For example, alleged or actual failures by us or our employees to comply with applicable human or workers' rights laws, rules or regulations, expectations and perceptions of our employment and environmental, social and governance practices, threatened or actual litigation against us or our employees, or the public announcement and potential publicity surrounding any of these issues, even if inaccurate, satisfactorily addressed, or if no violation or wrongdoing actually occurred, could adversely impact our reputation and relationships with customers, suppliers, stockholders and the communities in which we operate, and our ability to renew or negotiate new agreements for projects. Any such failure or reputational harm could have an adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

**We rely on the efforts of key employees. Our failure to retain these employees could adversely affect our results of operations.**

Our success depends upon the abilities of our Executive Officers. In particular, the loss of the services of Frederick W. McTaggart, our President and Chief Executive Officer, could be detrimental to our operations and our continued success. Mr. McTaggart has an employment agreement expiring on December 31, 2028. Each year, the term of this agreement may be extended for an additional year. However, we cannot guarantee that Mr. McTaggart will continue to work for us during the term of his agreement or will extend his employment agreement with us.

**Our business could be adversely affected by cyber threats or other interruptions in information technology, communications networks and operations.** 

As part of our operations, we rely on computer systems to process transactions and communicate with our customers, suppliers and other third parties. We rely on continued and unimpeded access to secure network connections to communicate between locations and on reliable internet connections to communicate with external parties. We have physical, technical and procedural safeguards in place that are designed to protect information and protect against security and data breaches as well as fraudulent transactions and other activities. Despite these safeguards and our other security processes and protections, we cannot be assured that all our systems and processes are free from vulnerability to evolving

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

and increasingly sophisticated cyber-attacks, to other physical breaches or to inadvertent data disclosure by third parties or by us. A significant data security breach, including misappropriation of customer, supplier or confidential employee information, could cause us to incur significant costs, which may include potential costs of investigations, legal, forensic and consulting fees and expenses, costs and diversion of management attention required for investigation, remediation and litigation, substantial repair or replacement costs. We could also experience data losses that would impair our ability to manage our business operations, including accounting and project costs, manage our water and distribution systems or process transactions and have a negative impact on our reputation and loss of confidence of our customers, suppliers and others, any of which could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows and our business in general.

**We are exposed to credit risk through our relationships with several customers.**

We are subject to credit risk posed by possible defaults in payment by our customers in the Cayman Islands, The Bahamas, the United States, and the British Virgin Islands. Adverse economic conditions affecting, or financial difficulties of, those parties could impair their ability to pay us or cause them to delay payment. We depend on these parties to pay us on a timely basis. Our outstanding accounts receivable are not covered by collateral or credit insurance. Any delay or default in payment could adversely affect our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

**We are exposed to the risk of variations in currency exchange rates.**

Although we report our results in United States dollars, a significant portion of our revenue is earned in other currencies. These currencies have been fixed to the United States dollar for more than 50 years. Consequently, we do not employ hedging strategies against the foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with conducting business in foreign currencies while reporting in United States dollars. If any of the existing fixed exchange rates for these other currencies becomes a floating exchange rate and any of these currencies depreciate against the U.S. dollar, our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected.

**We may not pay dividends in the future. If dividends are paid, they may be in lesser amounts than past dividends**.

Our shareholders may receive dividends out of legally available funds if, and when, they are declared by our Board of Directors. We have paid dividends in the past but may cease to do so at any time. We may incur increased operating or development expenses or capital requirements or indebtedness in the future that may restrict our ability to pay dividends. We may also be restricted from paying dividends in the future due to restrictions imposed by applicable corporate laws, our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, covenants contained in financing agreements, and other factors considered by our Board of Directors. We may not continue to pay dividends in the future or, if dividends are paid, they may not be in amounts comparable to past dividends.

**Service of process and enforcement of legal proceedings commenced against us in the United States may be difficult to obtain.**

We are incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and most of our assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, as of March 9, 2026, six of our 15 Directors and Officers reside outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to execute service of process within the United States upon us and such other persons, or to enforce judgments obtained against such persons in United States courts, and bring any action, including actions predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the United States securities laws. In addition, it may be difficult for investors to enforce, in original actions brought in courts or jurisdictions located outside of the United States, rights predicated upon the United States securities laws.

Based on the advice of our Cayman Islands legal counsel, we believe no reciprocal statutory enforcement of foreign judgments exists between the United States and the Cayman Islands, and that foreign judgments originating from the United States are not directly enforceable in the Cayman Islands. A prevailing party in a United States proceeding against us or our Directors and Officers would have to initiate a new proceeding in the Cayman Islands using the United States judgment as evidence of the party's claim. A prevailing party could rely on the summary judgment procedures available in the Cayman Islands, subject to available defenses in the Cayman Islands courts, including, but not limited to, the lack

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

of competent jurisdiction in the United States courts, lack of due service of process in the United States proceeding and the possibility that enforcement or recognition of the United States judgment would be contrary to the public policy of the Cayman Islands.

Depending on the nature of damages awarded, civil liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (or the Securities Act), or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (or the Exchange Act), for original actions instituted outside the Cayman Islands may or may not be enforceable. For example, a United States judgment awarding remedies unobtainable in any legal action in the courts of the Cayman Islands, such as treble damages, would likely not be enforceable under any circumstances.

**The relatively low trading volume of our stock may adversely impact the ability to sell our shares.**

The average daily trading volume of our common stock in 2025 was approximately 113,000 shares, a much lower trading volume than that of many other companies listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market. A public trading market having the desired characteristics of depth, liquidity and orderliness depends on the presence in the market of willing buyers and sellers of our common stock at any given time. This presence in turn depends on the individual decisions of investors and general economic and market conditions over which we have no control. Due to the limited volume of trading in our common stock, an investor in our stock may have difficulty selling larger volumes of our common stock in the manner, or at the price, that might be attainable if our common stock were more actively traded.

**ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY**

**Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy**

Our information technology ("IT") and cybersecurity programs are crucial to maintaining secure operations, which enable us to deliver on our promise to customers and maintain stakeholder trust. Our Vice President of Information Technology ("VP IT") is responsible for establishing, implementing, and executing our cybersecurity program and strategy. Our VP IT has more than 25 years of IT, IT audit, and cybersecurity experience, and is involved in assessing the latest developments in cybersecurity, including potential threats and innovative risk management techniques. All IT staff are obliged to include cybersecurity as part of their everyday considerations and tasks.

Our cybersecurity program is a critical component of our enterprise risk management process overseen by our Board of Directors, and we have integrated cybersecurity-related risks into our overall enterprise risk management framework. Additionally, cybersecurity-related risks are included in the risk universe that the risk management function evaluates to assess top risks to the enterprise on an annual basis.

Our IT department proactively identifies, manages, and mitigates cyber risk in a variety of ways, including but not limited to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a. A formal enterprise-wide cybersecurity policy and related standards;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b. Cybersecurity training and employee phishing simulations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c. Ongoing vulnerability assessment, identification, and remediation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d. Cyber incident response, IT disaster recovery, and business continuity plans;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e. Identity and access management controls;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;f. Automated patch management and security updates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;g. Network isolation of key operations environments; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;h. Email filtering with attachment inspection and targeted threat protection.

The standards set in our cybersecurity program include the implementation of controls that are aligned with industry guidelines and applicable regulations to identify threats, deter attacks, and protect our information security assets. These standards are guided, in part, by the relevant National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and American Water

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Works Association (AWWA) frameworks and guidance. We use various tools, security measures and technologies to aid in seeking to protect our network perimeter and internal systems from unauthorized access, intrusion, or disruption. Assessments are conducted across our systems, networks, and data infrastructure to identify potential cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities.

We have policies and procedures in place for selecting and managing our relationships with third-party service providers and other business partners, including monitoring compliance with our agreements and regulatory and legal requirements. We also actively engage with industry participants and related communities as part of our continuing efforts to evaluate and enhance the effectiveness of our information security policies and procedures. In addition, a monitoring and detection system has been implemented to help identify cybersecurity threats and incidents. Our cybersecurity program also focuses on providing training and awareness to our employees and contractors on cybersecurity best practices.

**Cybersecurity Governance**

Our Board of Directors considers cybersecurity risk as part of its risk oversight function and has delegated to the Audit Committee oversight of cybersecurity and other IT risks. The Audit Committee oversees management's implementation of our cybersecurity risk management program.

The Audit Committee oversees the management of our cybersecurity risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures. At each quarterly meeting, the Audit Committee receives an update from our VP IT and other members of management on relevant topics, including cybersecurity program maturity progress, new capabilities implemented, testing results, key cyber risk metrics (e.g., simulated phishing testing and vulnerability management) and notable incidents or events should they occur. On an annual basis, our Board of Directors meets with our VP IT and our third-party cybersecurity consultant to review our cybersecurity strategy. In accordance with our cybersecurity incident response plan, our Board of Directors is promptly informed of potentially material cybersecurity incidents, including with respect to our third-party service providers.

Although we have experienced cybersecurity incidents from time to time that have not had a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations, there can be no assurance that a cyber-attack, security breach, or other cybersecurity incident will not have a material adverse effect on us in the future.

Our management team supervises efforts to prevent, detect, mitigate, and remediate cybersecurity risks and incidents through various means, which may include briefings from internal security personnel; threat intelligence and other information obtained from governmental, public or private sources, including external consultants engaged by us; and alerts and reports produced by security tools deployed in the IT environment.

For a discussion regarding risks from cybersecurity threats that have or are reasonably likely to affect the company, see the risk factor titled "Our business could be adversely affected by cyber threats or other interruptions to information technology, communications networks and operations." in Item 1A of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

**Cayman Islands**

We have been operating our business on Grand Cayman since 1973 and have been using reverse osmosis technology to convert seawater to potable water since 1989. The Cayman Islands have a limited natural supply of fresh water. We have an exclusive license from the Cayman Islands government to process potable water from seawater and then sell and distribute that water by pipeline to the Seven Mile Beach and West Bay areas of Grand Cayman. Our Grand Cayman operations consist of three company-owned seawater reverse osmosis desalination plants which (as of December 31, 2025) provide water to 8,717 retail residential and commercial connections within a government licensed area and three government-owned seawater reverse osmosis plants which supply bulk water to the WAC. Our pipeline system on Grand Cayman Island covers the Seven Mile Beach and West Bay areas of Grand Cayman and consists of approximately 100 miles of potable water pipe.

Our exclusive license from the Cayman Islands government was originally scheduled to expire in July 2010 but was extended several times by the Cayman Islands government in order to provide the parties with additional time to negotiate the terms of a new license agreement. The most recent express extension of the license expired on January 31, 2018. From that date to February 18, 2025, we continued to operate under the terms of the 1990 license, treating such terms as operative notwithstanding the expiration of the express extension. We continued to pay a royalty of 7.5% of the revenue we collect as required under the 1990 license. On February 18, 2025, Cayman Water received a new concession from the government that authorizes and maintains the terms of the 1990 license until a new license from OfReg is negotiated and enacted. Negotiations between Cayman Water and OfReg for the new license remain on-going.

We have been informed during our retail license negotiations, both by OfReg and its predecessor in these negotiations, that they seek to restructure the terms of the license in a manner that could significantly reduce the operating income and cash flows we have historically generated from our retail license. See further discussion of this matter at ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – Material Commitments, Expenditures and Contingencies – *Cayman Water Retail License*.

**The Bahamas**

CW-Bahamas produces potable water from two seawater reverse osmosis desalination plants. The Windsor plant and the Blue Hills plant are located in Nassau, New Providence and have a total installed capacity of 14.8 million gallons per day. CW-Bahamas supplies water from these plants to the WSC under long-term supply agreements. During 2025, we supplied approximately 4.8 billion gallons of water to the WSC from these plants, which is consistent with the 4.8 billion gallons supplied during 2024.

From time to time (including presently), CW-Bahamas has experienced delays in collecting its accounts receivable. Representatives of the Bahamas government have informed us that their delays in paying our accounts receivables did/do not reflect any type of dispute with us with respect to the amounts owed. To date, all amounts due from CW-Bahamas were eventually paid in full, and we believe that the present accounts receivable from the WSC are fully collectible. Such accounts receivable balances due from The Bahamas government amounted to $20.7 million as of December 31, 2025. See further discussion of this matter at ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - *CW-Bahamas Liquidity*.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

Our critical accounting policies relate to (i) the valuations of our goodwill, intangible assets and long-lived assets; and (ii) revenue recognition on our construction and manufacturing contracts.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Our actual results could differ significantly from such estimates and assumptions.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

The application of our critical accounting policies involves estimates or assumptions that constitute "critical accounting estimates" for us because:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● the nature of these estimates or assumptions is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● the impact of the estimates and assumptions on financial condition and results of operations is material.

*Goodwill and Intangible Assets*

Goodwill represents the excess cost of an acquired business over the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the acquired business as of the date of acquisition. Goodwill and intangible assets recorded as a result of a business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized but are tested for impairment annually or upon the identification of a triggering event. Intangible assets with estimable useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values and reviewed periodically for impairment. We evaluate the possible impairment of goodwill annually as part of our reporting process for the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. Management identifies our reporting units for goodwill impairment testing purposes, which consist of Cayman Water, the bulk segment (which is comprised of CW-Bahamas and OC-Cayman), PERC, REC, and the manufacturing segment (i.e., Aerex), and determines the carrying value of each reporting unit by assigning the assets and liabilities, including the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units. We determine the fair value of each reporting unit and compare these fair values to the carrying amounts of the reporting units. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, an impairment loss is recorded.

For 2025 and 2024, we elected to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it was necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment testing we have conducted in prior years for our reporting units. We assessed the relevant events and circumstances to evaluate whether it is more likely than not that the fair values of such reporting units are less than their carrying values. The events and circumstances assessed for each reporting unit included macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance, and other relevant events. Based upon this qualitative assessment, we determined that it is more likely than not that the fair values of our reporting units exceeded their carrying values as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

In late July 2021, a major customer communicated to Aerex that its purchases of a specialized product from Aerex in 2022 and subsequent years would be at substantially reduced annual amounts, as compared to the amounts it had purchased from Aerex in prior years. As a result, our updated sales estimate for this customer based on this new information was substantially below the sales we anticipated to this customer for 2022 and subsequent years that we used in the discounted cash flow projections we prepared for purposes of testing our manufacturing reporting unit's goodwill for possible impairment as of December 31, 2020. Furthermore, Aerex's efforts to replace the revenue previously generated from this customer with revenue from existing and new customers were adversely impacted by negative economic conditions (caused in part by the COVID-19 pandemic). These negative economic conditions also increased Aerex's raw material costs, resulted in raw material shortages and extended delivery times for such materials, and adversely affected the overall financial condition of Aerex's current and prospective customers. Accordingly, in light of this new information from Aerex's former major customer, and the on-going weak economic conditions that we believed would continue through 2022, we updated our projections of future cash flows for the manufacturing reporting unit and tested its goodwill for possible impairment as of June 30, 2021 using the discounted cash flow and guideline public company methods, with a weighting of 80% and 20% applied to these two methods, respectively. Based upon this testing, we determined that the carrying value of our manufacturing reporting unit exceeded its fair value by $2.9 million, and we recorded an impairment loss to reduce our manufacturing segment's goodwill by this amount for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

*Long-lived Assets*

We review the carrying amounts of our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable. Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or a significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets is not recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, we recognize an impairment loss only if

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

its carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted cash flows and measure the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and fair value.

*Construction and Manufacturing Contract Revenue Recognition*

We design, construct, and sell desalination infrastructure through DesalCo, which serves customers in the Cayman Islands, The Bahamas, and the British Virgin Islands. We design, construct, and sell wastewater, water reuse, and water production infrastructure in the United States through PERC and Kalaeloa Desalco. Aerex is a custom and specialty manufacturer in the United States of water-related systems and products applicable to commercial, municipal and industrial water production and treatment.

We recognize revenue for our construction and our specialized/custom manufacturing contracts (and some of our design contracts) over time under the input method using costs incurred (which represents work performed) to date relative to the total estimated costs at completion to measure progress toward satisfying a contract's performance obligations, as such measure best reflects the transfer of control of the promised good to the customer. Contract costs include labor, materials, subcontractor costs and other expenses. We follow this method since we can make reasonably dependable estimates of the revenue and costs applicable to the various stages of a contract. Under this input method, we record revenue and recognize profit or loss as work on the contract progresses. We estimate total costs to be incurred and profit to be earned on each long-term, fixed price contract prior to commencement of work on the contract and update these estimates as work on the contract progresses. The cumulative amount of revenue recorded on a contract at a specified point in time is that percentage of total estimated revenue that incurred costs to date comprised of estimated total contract costs. Due to the extended time it may take to complete many of our contracts and the scope and nature of the work required to be performed on those contracts, the estimations of total revenue and costs at completion are complicated and subject to many variables and, accordingly, are subject to changes. When adjustments in estimated total contract revenue or estimated total contract costs are required, any changes from prior estimates are recognized in the current period for the inception-to-date effect of such changes. We recognize the full amount of any estimated loss on a contract at the time the estimates indicate such a loss.

The cost estimates we prepare in connection with our construction and manufacturing contracts are subject to inherent uncertainties. Because we base our contract prices on our estimation of future construction and manufacturing costs, the profitability of our construction and manufacturing contracts is highly dependent on our ability to estimate these costs accurately, as almost all of our construction and manufacturing contracts are fixed-price contracts. The cost of materials, labor and subcontractors could increase significantly after we sign a construction or manufacturing contract, which could cause the gross profit for a contract to decline from our previous estimates, adversely affecting our recognition of revenue and gross profit for the contract. Construction or manufacturing contract costs that significantly exceed our initial estimates could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

**Results of Operations**

The following discussion and analysis of our results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included under Part II, ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA, of this Annual Report.

**Year Ended December 31, 2025 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2024**

Discontinued Operations – Mexico Project Development

In 2010, we began the pursuit, through our Netherlands subsidiary, Consolidated Water Cooperatief, U.A. ("CW-Cooperatief"), and our Mexico subsidiary, N.S.C. Agua, S.A. de C.V. ("NSC"), of a project (the "Project") that encompassed the construction, operation and minority ownership of a 100 million gallons per day seawater reverse osmosis desalination plant to be located in northern Baja California, Mexico and accompanying pipeline to deliver water to the Mexican potable water system.

Through a series of transactions that began in 2012, NSC purchased 20.1 hectares of land for approximately $21.1 million on which the proposed Project's plant was to be constructed.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

In November 2015, the State of Baja California (the "State") officially commenced a public tender for the Project, and in June 2016 a consortium comprised of NSC and two other parties was selected by the State as the winner of the tender process for the Project. NSC subsequently formed AdR to pursue the completion of the Project.

On August 22, 2016, the Public Private Partnership Agreement for the Project (the "APP Contract") was executed between AdR, the State Water Commission of Baja California ("CEA"), and the Government of Baja California as represented by the Secretary of Planning and Finance and the Public Utilities Commission of Tijuana ("CESPT"). The APP Contract required AdR to design, construct, finance and operate a seawater reverse osmosis desalination plant (and accompanying aqueduct) with a capacity of up to 100 million gallons per day in two phases: the first with a capacity of 50 million gallons per day and an aqueduct to the Mexican potable water system in Tijuana, Baja California and the second phase with a capacity of 50 million gallons per day. The first phase was to be operational within 36 months of commencing construction and the second phase was to be operational by January 2025. The APP Contract further required AdR to operate and maintain the plant and aqueduct for a period of 37 years starting from the commencement of operation of the first phase. At the end of the operating period, ownership of the plant and aqueduct would have been transferred to CEA.

On June 29, 2020, AdR received a letter (the "Letter") from CEA and CESPT terminating the APP Contract. The Letter requested that AdR provide an inventory of the assets that comprised the "Project Works" (as defined in the APP Contract) for the purpose of acknowledging and paying the non-recoverable expenses made by AdR in connection with the Project, with such reimbursement to be calculated in accordance with the terms of the APP Contract. On August 28, 2020, AdR submitted their list of non-recoverable expenses, including those of NSC, to CEA and CESPT which amounted to 51,144,525 United States dollars and an additional 137,333,114 Mexican pesos.

CW-Cooperatief, as a Netherlands company, had certain rights relating to its investments in NSC and AdR under the *Agreement on Promotion, Encouragement and Reciprocal Protection of Investments between the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the United Mexican States* entered into force as of October 1, 1999 (the "Treaty"). On April 16, 2021, CW-Cooperatief submitted a letter to the President of Mexico and other Mexican federal government officials alleging that the State's termination of the APP Contract constituted a breach by Mexico of its international obligations under the Treaty, entitling CW-Cooperatief to full reparation, including monetary damages. This letter invited Mexico to seek a resolution of this investment dispute through consultation and negotiation but stated that if the dispute cannot be resolved in this manner, CW-Cooperatief would refer the dispute to the International Centre for the Settlement of International Disputes for arbitration, as provided for in the Treaty.

In February 2022, CW-Cooperatief, filed a Request for Arbitration with the International Centre for Settlement of International Disputes ("ICSID") requesting that the United Mexican States pay CW-Cooperatief damages in excess of US$51 million plus MXN$137 million (with the exact amount to be quantified in the proceedings), plus fees, costs and pre- and post-award interest.

In May 2024, we, through CW-Cooperatief, NSC, and AdR, entered into a settlement agreement (the "Settlement Agreement") with the State and Banco Nacional de Obras y Servicios Públicos, S.N.C., as trustee under the trust agreement for the trust named Fondo Nacional de Infraestructura (the "Trust"). Under the Settlement Agreement, CW-Cooperatief requested that ICSID discontinue the arbitration and on May 31, 2024, ICSID issued an order discontinuing the arbitration. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Trust purchased the 20.1 hectares of land on which the Project's plant was to be constructed, including related rights of way (the "Land"), on an "as-is" basis, from NSC for MXN$596,144,000. The sale of the Land to the Trust was closed on June 14, 2024 at which time the MXN$596,144,000 was paid to us and converted at the prevailing exchange rate on that date into US$31,959,685.

In connection with the Settlement Agreement on June 14, 2024, the State also paid NSC MXN$20,000,000 to purchase certain documentation owned by NSC relating to the Project.

As a result of the Settlement Agreement: (i) the parties have been released from all obligations owed to each other in connection with the APP Contract and the arbitration; and (ii) no party to the Settlement Agreement may institute any legal proceedings against another party thereto with respect to the matters which have been addressed by the Settlement Agreement.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

AdR was officially terminated/dissolved in the first quarter of 2026. We are presently in the process of legally terminating/dissolving CW-Cooperatief and NSC and expect to complete this process by mid-2026.

Our net income (loss) from discontinued operations for 2025 and 2024 was ($290,635) and $10,355,184, respectively.

Consolidated Results

Including discontinued operations, net income attributable to Consolidated Water Co. Ltd. stockholders for 2025 was $18,336,673 ($1.14 per share on a fully diluted basis), as compared to $28,237,554 ($1.77 per share on a fully diluted basis) for 2024.

The following discussion and analysis of our consolidated results of operations and results of operations by segment for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024 relates only to our continuing operations.

Net income from continuing operations attributable to Consolidated Water Co. Ltd. stockholders for 2025 was $18,627,308 ($1.16 per share on a fully diluted basis), as compared to $17,882,370 ($1.12 per share on a fully diluted basis) for 2024.

Revenue for 2025 decreased to $132,073,368 from $133,966,633 in 2024, due to decreases in the revenue from our services and bulk segments. Gross profit for 2025 was $48,378,810 (37% of total revenue) as compared to $45,624,448 (34% of total revenue) for 2024. For further discussion of revenue and gross profit see the "Results by Segment" discussion and analysis that follows.

General and administrative expenses ("G&A expenses") on a consolidated basis increased to $30,116,328 for 2025 as compared to $27,537,436 for 2024. The principal factors for the increase in G&A expenses for 2025 were incremental (i) employee costs of almost $1.3 million arising from new hires, pay increases and increased benefits costs; (ii) legal and professional fees of approximately $503,000; and (iii) information technology expenses of approximately $334,000 incurred for the implementation of a new retail billing system.

Other income, net, increased to $3,024,944 in 2025, as compared to $2,393,676 in 2024 primarily due to $575,850 of additional interest income earned on higher balances of interest earning assets.

Results by Segment

*Retail Segment:*

The retail segment generated $15,300,161 of income from operations for 2025 as compared to $14,280,948 for 2024.

Revenue generated by our retail water operations increased to $33,587,952 in 2025 from $31,741,343 in 2024 due to an 8.3% increase in the volume of water sold. The amount of water Cayman Water sold in 2025 (1.09 billion gallons) was the highest in our history. We believe this volume increase in water sold resulted from significantly lower rainfall on Grand Cayman (which was 40% below the 30-year average and 45% lower than 2024) and a 6.6% increase in the number of customer accounts in our license area from December 31, 2024 to December 31, 2025.

As a result of the revenue increase, retail segment gross profit increased in both total dollars and as a percentage of revenue to $18,994,259 (57% of retail revenue) for 2025 as compared to $17,542,255 (55% of retail revenue) for 2024.

Retail G&A expenses increased to $3,734,676 for 2025 as compared to $3,263,593 for 2024 due to incremental technology expenses of approximately $334,000 resulting from the ongoing implementation of a new billing system.

*Bulk Segment:*

The bulk segment contributed $9,396,351 and $8,748,052 to our income from operations for 2025 and 2024, respectively.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Bulk segment revenue was $33,481,307 and $33,673,387 for 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in bulk revenue from 2024 to 2025 reflects a decrease in the price of energy for CW-Bahamas, which decreased the energy pass-through component of CW-Bahamas' rates.

Gross profit for our bulk segment was $11,011,110 (33% of bulk revenue) and $10,313,027 (31% of bulk revenue) for 2025 and 2024, respectively. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased slightly in 2025 as compared to 2024 due to improved plant efficiency and reductions in various operating expenses.

Bulk segment G&A expenses remained relatively consistent at $1,614,759 for 2025 as compared to $1,564,975 for 2024.

*Services Segment:*

The services segment contributed $4,028,856 and $6,392,259 to our income from operations for 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Services segment revenue decreased to $46,312,325 for 2025 compared to $50,956,489 for 2024. Construction revenue declined to $13,470,641 in 2025 as compared to $18,602,919 in 2024, as we recognized $8.2 million of additional revenue from PERC's contract with Liberty Utilities and $1.3 million in revenue from the Red Gate contract in Grand Cayman in 2024. These contracts were substantially completed in mid-2024. Construction revenue recognized on the Hawaii contract also declined by $2.9 million in 2025 due to the completion of the pilot plant testing phase of the project. These decreases in construction revenue were partially offset by construction revenue generated under new contracts. Revenue generated under operations and maintenance contracts increased to $32,075,046 in 2025 from $29,307,405 in 2024 due to incremental revenue generated by both PERC and REC. Design and consulting revenue decreased to approximately $767,000 in 2025 from approximately $3.0 million in 2024 due to the completion in the fourth quarter of 2024 of a contract for a major plant commissioning and startup project.

The gross profit for the services segment decreased to $11,862,481 (26% of services revenue) in 2025 as compared to $12,444,954 (24% of services revenue) for 2024 due to the decrease in construction and design and consulting revenue.

We have been informed by one of our significant operations and maintenance customers that it will not extend its existing contract with PERC beyond its expiration date in March 2026. We recognized approximately $5.5 million and $1.8 million in revenue and gross profit, respectively, under this contract in 2025.

G&A expenses for the services segment increased to $7,885,756 for 2025 as compared to $6,055,409 for 2024 primarily due to incremental employee costs of $1,181,678 attributable to new hires and salary increases and an increase of $301,173 in the provision for credit losses for the services segment.

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, and since that time we have been engaged in the design and development phase for construction of the plant. We have achieved major project milestones under this phase of the project, (i) including 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 the plant design.

We are required to obtain federal, state, regional and local permits, licenses and other government approvals as a condition to commencing and completing construction and initiating operations. The permitting process for a project of this scale and complexity is inherently iterative and subject to review by multiple regulatory authorities, public comment procedures and, in certain instances, interagency coordination. During the year ended December 31, 2025, and continuing through the time of the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we and BWS have experienced delays in obtaining certain required permits and related governmental approvals. These delays have resulted in a corresponding deferral of certain project milestones and a delay in the commencement of plant construction.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Pursuant to the terms of the contract, we are entitled to extensions of time for performance should delays arise from the failure to obtain required permits or other governmental approvals, provided that we have satisfied certain contractually specified conditions, including the exercise of all reasonable efforts to obtain such permits or other governmental approvals. We believe that we have complied in all material respects with the contractual prerequisites necessary to obtain relief in respect of such delays. Based on ongoing discussions with representatives of the BWS and its advisors, we currently expect that appropriate extensions of time will be granted to Kalaeloa Desalco to reflect the impact of the permitting delays on the project schedule. However, until formal change orders, amendments or written confirmations are executed, there can be no assurance as to the timing, scope or terms of any such extensions, or if such extensions will be granted at all.

The ultimate duration and economic burden of the permitting process remain subject to factors outside of our control, including the workload and resource constraints of applicable regulatory authorities, the timing and outcome of required public processes, the resolution of technical comments or requests for supplemental information and the potential for administrative or judicial challenges. To the extent that Kalaeloa Desalco does not receive the anticipated extensions of time, or if the extensions granted are insufficient to accommodate the full period of delay, Kalaeloa Desalco could be exposed to contractual remedies available to the BWS, which may include the assessment of liquidated damages, the withholding of milestone payments, or termination of the contract.

At the time of the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, Kalaeloa Desalco is continuing to advance the permitting process, respond to regulatory inquiries and coordinate with the BWS to mitigate schedule impacts. Kalaeloa Desalco also is evaluating potential adjustments to sequencing and procurement activities designed to reduce the effect of the delays on the overall project economics. 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.

*Manufacturing Segment:*

The manufacturing segment contributed $4,413,201 and $2,867,405 to our income from operations in 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Manufacturing revenue increased to $18,691,784 for 2025 as compared to $17,595,414 for 2024.

Manufacturing gross profit was $6,510,960 (35% of manufacturing revenue) for 2025 as compared to a gross profit of $5,324,212 (30% of manufacturing revenue) for 2024. The increase in manufacturing gross profit in dollars and as a percentage of revenue results from increased production activity, production efficiencies and a higher margin product mix.

G&A expenses for the manufacturing segment decreased to $2,102,759 for 2025 as compared to $2,456,807 for 2024 due to a decrease in the provision for credit losses for the manufacturing segment of approximately $359,000 in 2025.

*Corporate:*

Corporate G&A expenses increased to $14,778,378 for 2025 as compared to $14,196,652 for 2024 as a result of approximately $291,000 in incremental professional fees and smaller increases in various other expense accounts.

**Year Ended December 31, 2024 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2023**

Discontinued Operations – Mexico Project Development

As discussed previously, on June 30, 2020 the State of Baja California cancelled its APP Contract with AdR for the Project. As a result of the cancellation of the Project, we discontinued all development activities associated with the Project, commenced marketing efforts to sell the land NSC purchased for the Project, and initiated international arbitration against the Government of Mexico to recover the costs we had incurred for the Project. In May 2024, we executed a Settlement Agreement with the State pursuant to which we discontinued the arbitration in exchange for the purchase by the State (i) of the land for the Project for MXN$596,144,000; and (ii) certain documentation for the Project for MXN$20,000,000. We received the proceeds from the sale of the land and documentation in June 2024.

We are presently in the process of legally terminating/dissolving CW-Cooperatief, NSC and AdR and will continue to incur expenses for these subsidiaries until such processes are completed.

Our net income (loss) from discontinued operations for 2024 and 2023 was $10,355,184 and ($1,086,744), respectively. The net income reported from discontinued operations for 2024 reflects the gain generated from the sale of the Project land and documentation under the Settlement Agreement.

Consolidated Results

Including discontinued operations, net income attributable to Consolidated Water Co. Ltd. stockholders for 2024 was $28,237,554 ($1.77 per share on a fully diluted basis), as compared to $29,585,391 ($1.86 per share on a fully diluted basis) for 2023.

The following discussion and analysis of our consolidated results of operations and results of operations by segment for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023 relates only to our continuing operations.

Net income from continuing operations attributable to Consolidated Water Co. Ltd. stockholders for 2024 was $17,882,370 ($1.12 per share on a fully diluted basis), as compared to $30,672,135 ($1.93 per share on a fully diluted basis) for 2023.

Revenue for 2024 decreased to $133,966,633 from $180,211,233 in 2023, due to a significant decrease in revenue from our services segment. Gross profit for 2024 was $45,624,448 (34% of total revenue) as compared to $61,927,105 (34% of total revenue) for 2023. For further discussion of revenue and gross profit see the "Results by Segment" discussion and analysis that follows.

General and administrative expenses ("G&A expenses") on a consolidated basis increased to $27,537,436 for 2024 as compared to $24,752,366 for 2023. The principal factors for the increase in G&A expenses for 2024 relates to additional G&A expenses of approximately $1,321,000 attributable to REC, which was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2023, and incremental audit, legal and audit related and other professional fees of approximately $1,357,000.

Other income, net, increased to $2,393,676 in 2024, as compared to $828,313 in 2023 primarily due to $1,397,782 of additional interest income resulting from additional interest earned on higher balances of interest earning assets and higher late payment charges on delinquent accounts receivable balances due from the WSC.

Results by Segment

*Retail Segment:*

The retail segment generated $14,280,948 of income from operations for 2024 as compared to $13,266,942 for 2023.

Revenue generated by our retail water operations increased to $31,741,343 in 2024 from $30,158,051 in 2023 due to a 4.5% increase in the volume of water sold. We believe the increase in the volume of water sold in 2024 resulted in part

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

from a 4.3% increase in the number of customer accounts in our license area from December 31, 2023 to December 31, 2024.

Retail segment gross profit increased to $17,542,255 (55% of retail revenue) for 2024 as compared to $16,266,822 (54% of retail revenue) for 2023 due to the revenue increase. Retail segment gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased slightly in 2024 as compared to 2023 due to the overall increase in water volume sold.

Retail G&A expenses remained relatively consistent at $3,263,593 for 2024 as compared to $2,978,164 for 2023.

*Bulk Segment:*

The bulk segment contributed $8,748,052 and $8,742,382 to our income from operations for 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Bulk segment revenue was $33,673,387 and $34,595,058 for 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in bulk revenue from 2023 to 2024 reflects a decrease in the price of energy for CW-Bahamas, which decreased the energy pass-through component of CW-Bahamas' rates.

Gross profit for our bulk segment was $10,313,027 (31% of bulk revenue) and $10,466,926 (30% of bulk revenue) for 2024 and 2023, respectively. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased slightly in 2024 as compared to 2023 due to higher revenue, efficiency improvements at OC-Cayman, and decreases in electricity and fuel costs and depreciation expense that more than offset increased maintenance and insurance expenses.

Bulk segment G&A expenses remained relatively consistent at $1,564,975 for 2024 as compared to $1,737,264 for 2023.

*Services Segment:*

The services segment contributed $6,392,259 and $26,897,080 to our income from operations for 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Services segment revenue decreased to $50,956,489 for 2024 compared to $97,966,650 for 2023. Construction revenue was $18,602,919 in 2024 as compared to $77,306,704 in 2023. We recognized approximately $8.5 million and $64 million in construction revenue for the Liberty Utilities contract for the construction of a water treatment plant in Goodyear, Arizona in 2024 and 2023, respectively. This contract was completed in mid-2024. Revenue generated under operations and maintenance contracts increased to $29,307,405 in 2024 from $19,368,365 in 2023. Revenue from REC, which was acquired in October 2023, constituted $6,069,342 of this operations and maintenance contracts revenue increase and the remainder of the increase related to new PERC contracts. Design and consulting revenue increased to approximately $3.0 million in 2024 from approximately $1.3 million in 2023.

The gross profit for the services segment decreased to $12,444,954 (24% of services revenue) in 2024 as compared to $31,168,888 (32% of services revenue) for 2023 due to the decrease in construction revenue.

G&A expenses for the services segment increased to $6,055,409 for 2024 as compared to $4,271,808 for 2023 primarily due to incremental G&A expenses of REC (which was acquired in the fourth quarter of 2023) of approximately $1,321,000.

*Manufacturing Segment:*

The manufacturing segment contributed $2,867,405 and $2,188,418 to our income from operations in 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Manufacturing revenue remained relatively consistent at $17,595,414 and $17,491,474 for 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Manufacturing gross profit was $5,324,212 (30% of manufacturing revenue) for 2024 as compared to a gross profit of $4,024,469 (23% of manufacturing revenue) for 2023. The increase in manufacturing gross profit in dollars and as a percentage of revenue results from a higher margin product mix.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

G&A expenses for the manufacturing segment increased to $2,456,807 for 2024 as compared to $1,838,284 for 2023 principally due to an increase in the provision for credit losses for the manufacturing segment of approximately $336,000 in 2024.

*Corporate:*

Corporate G&A expenses increased slightly to $14,196,652 for 2024 as compared to $13,926,846 for 2023. This increase reflects almost $1.2 million incremental audit, consulting and legal fees arising primarily from the Company's change in S.E.C. filing status from a small reporting company to an accelerated filer.

**FINANCIAL CONDITION**

The significant changes in the components of our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 as compared to December 31, 2024 (other than the change in our cash and cash equivalents, which is discussed later in "LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES") and the reasons for these changes are discussed in the following paragraphs.

Accounts receivable decreased by approximately $6.8 million, primarily due to a $7.6 million decrease in CW-Bahamas' accounts receivable.

Current inventory decreased by $5.2 million, primarily due to a decrease of $5.1 million in Aerex's inventory resulting from the consumption of materials used in product production.

Contract assets decreased by approximately $1.2 million, primarily due to a $1.1 million decrease in Aerex's contract assets.

Property, plant and equipment, net, increased by approximately $2.7 million, primarily due to the completion of the expansion of Aerex's manufacturing facility, transfers from construction in progress relating to the new West Bay plant, and the purchase of specialized equipment for the services segment, partially offset by the scheduled depreciation of fixed assets.

Construction in progress increased by approximately $1.6 million, primarily due to $3.2 million spent on the CW-Bahamas Cat Island plant construction, partially offset by a decrease of $1.7 million resulting from the additional capitalization of completed and in-use components of the West Bay plant expansion in Grand Cayman.

Contract liabilities increased by approximately $2.4 million, primarily due to the Kalaeloa Desalco construction project.

**LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES**

Certain transfers from our bank accounts in The Bahamas to our bank accounts in other countries require the approval of the Central Bank of The Bahamas.

The Cayman Islands does not have a tax treaty with the United States. 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 would be required to pay a withholding tax of 30% on the amount of any such funds transferred.

**Liquidity Position**

Our projected liquidity requirements for 2026 include capital expenditures for our existing operations of approximately $11.1 million, which includes approximately $1.0 million to be incurred during the first half of 2026 for a project in the Bahamas. We paid approximately $2.3 million in dividends in January 2026. Our liquidity requirements may also include future quarterly dividends, if such dividends are declared by our Board.

As of December 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $123.8 million and working capital of $141.9 million.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

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.

**CW-Bahamas Liquidity**

CW-Bahamas' accounts receivable balances (which include accrued interest) due from the WSC amounted to $20.7 million and $28.4 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. Approximately 71% and 81% of the accounts receivable balances were delinquent as of those dates, respectively. As of February 28, 2026, this receivable amounted to $22.6 million, of which 75% was delinquent. The delay in collecting these accounts receivable has adversely impacted the liquidity of this subsidiary.

From time to time (including presently), CW-Bahamas has experienced delays in collecting its accounts receivable from the WSC. When these delays occur, we hold discussions and meetings with representatives of the WSC and the government of The Bahamas. All previous delinquent accounts receivable from the WSC, including accrued interest thereon, were eventually paid in full. Based upon this payment history, we have not provided for a material allowance for credit losses for CW-Bahamas' accounts receivable from the WSC as of December 31, 2025, or prior periods.

We continue to be in frequent contact with officials of The Bahamas government, who continue to express their intention to significantly reduce CW-Bahamas' delinquent accounts receivable balances. However, we are unable to determine when or if such reduction will occur.

In a report dated October 6, 2022, Moody's Investor Services ("Moody's") downgraded The Bahamas' long-term issuer and senior unsecured ratings to B1 from Ba3. Moody's also lowered The Bahamas' local currency ceiling to Baa3 from Baa2 and its foreign currency ceiling to Ba1 from Baa3. Moody's has maintained these ratings through the date of its most current report issued in April 2025. Based upon our review of this Moody's correspondence, we continue to believe that no material allowance for credit losses is required for CW-Bahamas' accounts receivable from the WSC.

If CW-Bahamas is unable to collect a sufficient portion of its delinquent accounts receivable, one or more of the following events may occur: (i) CW-Bahamas may not have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations; (ii) we may be required to cease the recognition of revenue on CW-Bahamas' water supply agreements with the WSC; and (iii) we may be required to provide a material allowance for credit losses for CW-Bahamas' accounts receivable. Any of these events could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

**Discussion of Cash Flows for the Year Ended December 31, 2025**

Our cash and cash equivalents increased to $123,788,390 as of December 31, 2025 from $99,350,121 as of December 31, 2024.

*Cash Flows from Operating Activities*

Net cash provided by our operating activities was $41,713,571. This net cash provided reflects net income generated for the year ended December 31, 2025 of $18,929,852 as adjusted for (i) various items included in the determination of net income that do not affect cash flows during the year; and (ii) changes in the other components of working capital. The more significant of such items and changes in working capital components includes depreciation and amortization of $6,903,438, a decrease in accounts receivable of $6,519,621 attributable principally to CW-Bahamas, a decrease in inventory of $4,240,636 and an increase in contract liabilities of $2,401,980.

*Cash Flows from Investing Activities*

Net cash used in our investing activities was $8,439,222 primarily for additions to property, plant and equipment and construction in progress.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

*Cash Flows from Financing Activities*

Net cash used in our financing activities was $8,950,163, almost all of which related to the payment of dividends.

**Material Commitments, Expenditures and Contingencies**

*Cayman Water Retail License*

We sell water through our retail operations under a license issued in July 1990 by the Cayman Islands government (the "1990 license") that granted Cayman Water the exclusive right to provide potable water to customers within its licensed service area. Pursuant to the 1990 license, Cayman Water has the exclusive right to produce potable water and distribute it by pipeline to its licensed service area, which consists of two of the three most populated areas of Grand Cayman Island: Seven Mile Beach and West Bay. In 2025, 2024, and 2023 we generated approximately 26%, 24% and 17%, respectively, of our consolidated revenue and 39%, 38% and 26%, respectively, of our consolidated gross profit from the retail water operations conducted under the 1990 license.

The 1990 license was originally scheduled to expire in July 2010 but was extended several times by the Cayman Islands government to provide the parties with additional time to negotiate the terms of a new license agreement. The most recent express extension of the license expired on January 31, 2018. From that date until February 18, 2025, we continued to operate under the terms of the 1990 license, treating such terms as operative notwithstanding the expiration of the express extension. We continued to pay a royalty of 7.5% of the revenue we collect as required under the 1990 license.

In October 2016, the Government of the Cayman Islands passed legislation which created a new utilities regulation and competition office ("OfReg") and, in April 2017, passed supplemental legislation which transferred responsibility for economic regulation of the water utility sector and the negotiations with us for a new retail license to OfReg.

Under the new regulatory legislation passed in October 2016, Cayman Water was required to first be granted a concession by the government before obtaining a new (or renewing the old) retail operations license. On February 18, 2025, Cayman Water received a new concession from the government that authorizes and maintains the terms of the 1990 license until a new license from OfReg is negotiated and enacted. Negotiations between Cayman Water and OfReg for the new license remain on-going.

We have been informed during our retail license negotiations, both by OfReg and its predecessor in these negotiations, that they seek to restructure the terms of the license in a manner that could significantly reduce the operating income and cash flows we have historically generated from our retail license. We are presently unable to determine what impact the resolution of our retail license negotiations will have on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows but such resolution could result in a material reduction (or the loss) of the operating income and cash flows we have historically generated from our retail operations and could require us to record impairment losses to reduce the carrying values of our retail segment assets. Such impairment losses could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

*CW-Bahamas Supply Guarantees*

Our contracts to supply water to the WSC from our Blue Hills and Windsor plants require us to guarantee delivery of a minimum quantity of water per week. If the WSC requires the water and we do not meet this minimum, we are required to pay the WSC for the difference between the minimum and actual gallons delivered at a per gallon rate equal to the price per gallon that the WSC is currently paying us under the contract. The Blue Hills contract expires in 2032 and requires us to deliver 63.0 million gallons of water each week. The Windsor contract expires in 2033 and requires us to deliver 16.8 million gallons of water each week. We have been in compliance with the performance guarantees under these contracts for all periods since the inception of the contracts.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Adoption of New Accounting Standards**

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, *Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*. The ASU requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity's effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional information on income taxes paid. The Company adopted the standard as of December 31, 2025, including a recast of 2024 and 2023 information, by including additional required disclosures within the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 11—Income Taxes for further details. There was no impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

**Effect of Newly Issued but not yet Effective Accounting Standards**

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.* The ASU requires public companies to disclose, in the notes to financial statements, specific information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period. The amended ASU is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance.

**Dividends**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● On January 31, 2025, we paid a dividend of $0.11 to shareholders of record on January 2, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● On April 30, 2025, we paid a dividend of $0.11 to shareholders of record on April 1, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● On July 31, 2025, we paid a dividend of $0.14 to shareholders of record on July 1, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● On October 31, 2025, we paid a dividend of $0.14 to shareholders of record on October 1, 2025 .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● On January 30, 2026, we paid a dividend of $0.14 to shareholders of record on January 2, 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● On February 17, 2026, our Board declared a dividend of $0.14 payable on April 30, 2026 to shareholders of record on April 1, 2026.

We have paid dividends to owners of our common stock and redeemable preferred stock since we began declaring dividends in 1985. Our payment of any future cash dividends will depend upon our earnings, financial condition, cash flows, capital requirements and other factors our Board of Directors deems relevant in determining the amount and timing of such dividends.

**Dividend Reinvestment and Common Stock Purchase Plan**

This plan is available to our shareholders, who may reinvest all or a portion of their common stock dividends into shares of common stock at prevailing market prices and may also invest optional cash payments to purchase additional shares at prevailing market prices as part of this plan.

**Impact of Inflation**

Under the terms of our bulk water sales agreements in The Cayman Islands, The Bahamas and the British Virgin Islands, our water rates are automatically adjusted for inflation on an annual basis. Therefore, the impact of inflation on our gross profit from these revenue sources, measured in consistent dollars, historically has not been material. However, while we have received annual inflation adjustments for the rates we charge under our bulk water agreements, we have not applied to increase the water rates for Cayman Water since January 2018 (despite the inflation that has occurred since that date) due to the delayed resolution of our negotiations with OfReg for a new retail license. While we believe that we are entitled to apply to OfReg for future rate adjustments under the terms of the February 18, 2025 concession agreement with the Cayman Islands government, the denial by OfReg of such application or approval of an increase that is less than the increase in our costs could adversely affect the profitability of our retail segment. Furthermore, our manufacturing segment has in the past been adversely impacted by significant increases in raw material costs and our manufacturing and services segments could suffer similar adverse impacts in the future.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

While our operations and maintenance contracts are generally adjusted for inflation on an annual basis, such adjustment for many of these contracts is capped at 3% annually.

Kalaeloa Desalco has signed a contract with the Honolulu Board of Water Supply pursuant to which it presently expects to construct and operate a 1.7 million gallons per day seawater reverse osmosis desalination plant in Oahu, Hawaii. Approximately 80% of the $147 million price for the construction of this plant is subject to adjustment based upon changes in inflation indices from September 29, 2022 (the date that was 120 days after the original proposal was submitted) until the date that the notice to proceed with construction is issued by the client.

Increases in fuel and energy costs and other items could create additional credit risks for us, as our customers' ability to pay our invoices could be adversely affected by such increases.

In periods of high inflation, our consolidated results of operations and cash flows could be materially adversely affected.

**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of

**Consolidated Water Co. Ltd.**

**Opinion on the Financial Statements**

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Consolidated Water Co. Ltd. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements").

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB"), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in 2013 and our report dated March 16, 2026*,* expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

**Basis for Opinion**

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Critical Audit Matters**

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

*Revenue Recognition - Estimated Costs to Complete*

As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recognizes revenue for its construction and custom/specialized manufacturing contracts over time under the input method using costs incurred to date relative to the total estimated costs at completion to measure progress toward satisfying a contract's performance obligations as such measure best reflects the transfer of control of the promised good to the customer. The cost estimation process for these contracts is based on the knowledge and experience of the Company's project managers, engineers, and financial professionals. Changes in job performance, job conditions and management's assessment of expected variable

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

consideration are factors that influence estimates of the total contract transaction price, total costs to complete those contracts and the Company's revenue recognition.

We identified the estimated costs to complete on these revenue contracts as a critical audit matter. The determination of the total estimated cost and progress toward completion requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions. Total estimated costs to complete projects include various contracts costs that include labor, materials and subcontractor costs. Due to the extended time it may take to complete many of the Company's contracts and the scope and nature of the work required to be performed on those contracts, the estimations of total revenue and costs at completion is complicated and subject to many variables and, accordingly, are subject to changes. Changes in these estimates can have a significant impact on the revenue recognized each period. Auditing these estimates involved especially challenging auditor judgment in evaluating the reasonableness of management's assumptions and estimates over the duration of these contracts.

The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:

● We obtained an understanding and evaluated the design and implementation of the internal controls over management's process related to estimated costs to complete, including controls over management's review of: (i) the development of project budgets and key cost inputs, (ii) the ongoing assessment and revisions to project budgets, and (iii) the ongoing review of project status, including the nature of activities to complete open projects.

● Evaluating management's ability to generate reasonable estimated costs to complete through performing a retrospective review of budget to actual variances.

● Assessing the reasonableness of the estimated costs to complete by evaluating the reasonableness of projects budgets and the nature of costs required to complete the project. Evaluation consists of investigating significant differences or unexpected results that take into consideration known changes in client operations, industry, and/or business conditions.

● Assessing the accuracy and the occurrence of the actual cost amount used in the percentage of completion by testing a sample of project costs incurred to date.

● Evaluating the reasonableness of project status by performing inquiries of project managers to assess the nature and costs of activities required to complete the project.

● Assessing the reasonableness of changes in estimated costs to complete by comparing project profitability estimates in the current period to historical estimates and actual performance including during the period under audit and subsequent to the period end and investigating reasons for changes in expected costs and project margins.

#### CONSOLIDATED WATER CO. LTD.

#### NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Principal activity

Consolidated Water Co. Ltd. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") supply potable water, treat wastewater and water for reuse, and provide water-related products and services to customers in the Cayman Islands, The Bahamas, the United States and the British Virgin Islands. The Company produces potable water from seawater using reverse osmosis technology and sells this water to a variety of customers, including public utilities, commercial and tourist properties, residential properties and government facilities. The Company designs, constructs and sells water production and water treatment infrastructure and manages water infrastructure for commercial and governmental customers. The Company also manufactures a wide range of specialized and custom water industry related products and provides design, engineering, operating and other services applicable to commercial, municipal and industrial water production, supply and treatment.

2. Accounting policies

**Basis of preparation:** The consolidated financial statements presented are prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

**Use of estimates:** The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to estimates and assumptions include the carrying value of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, goodwill and revenue recognition on construction and manufacturing contracts. Actual results could differ significantly from such estimates.

**Basis of consolidation:** The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company's (i) wholly-owned subsidiaries, Aerex Industries, Inc. ("Aerex"), Aquilex, Inc. ("Aquilex"), Cayman Water Company Limited ("Cayman Water"), Consolidated Water Cooperatief, U.A. ("CW-Cooperatief"), Consolidated Water U.S. Holdings, Inc. ("CW-Holdings"), DesalCo Limited ("DesalCo"), Kalaeloa Desalco LLC ("Kalaeloa Desalco"), Ocean Conversion (Cayman) Limited ("OC-Cayman"), PERC Water Corporation ("PERC") and Ramey Environmental Compliance, Inc. ("REC"); and (ii) majority-owned subsidiaries Consolidated Water (Bahamas) Ltd. ("CW-Bahamas"), N.S.C. Agua, S.A. de C.V. ("NSC"), and Aguas de Rosarito S.A.P.I. de C.V. ("AdR"). The Company's investment in its affiliate Ocean Conversion (BVI) Ltd. ("OC-BVI") is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In 2019 and 2020, CW-Holdings acquired 61% of PERC. In January 2023, CW-Holdings purchased the remaining 39% ownership interest in PERC for $2.4 million in cash, and 368,383 shares of the Company's common stock having a value of approximately $5.36 million based upon the opening trading price of the Company's common stock on The Nasdaq Global Market on the date of the transaction.

In September 2021, Kalaeloa Desalco was formed to pursue a project in Oahu, Hawaii. On June 2, 2023, Kalaeloa Desalco signed a definitive agreement with the Honolulu Board of Water Supply to design, construct, operate and maintain a 1.7 million gallons per day seawater reverse osmosis desalination plant in Oahu, Hawaii.

Effective October 1, 2023, the Company purchased, through its wholly-owned subsidiary PERC, a 100% ownership interest in REC, a Colorado company that operates and maintains water and wastewater treatment facilities and provides technical services to clients throughout the Rocky Mountain and Eastern Plains Regions of Colorado. PERC acquired REC for approximately $4.1 million and recorded goodwill and intangible assets from this acquisition of $2,436,391 and $1,108,390 respectively.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Foreign currency:** The Company's reporting currency is the United States dollar ("US$"). The functional currency of the Company and its foreign operating subsidiaries (other than NSC, AdR, and CW-Cooperatief) is the currency for each respective country. The functional currency for NSC, AdR, and CW-Cooperatief is the US$. NSC and AdR conduct business in US$ and Mexican pesos and CW-Cooperatief conducts business in US$ and euros. The exchange rates for the Cayman Islands dollar and the Bahamian dollar are fixed to the US$. The exchange rates for conversion of Mexican pesos and euros into US$ vary based upon market conditions.

Net foreign currency gains arising from transactions and re-measurements were $39,259, $74,993 and $84,678 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively, and are included in "Other income (expense) - Other" in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

**Cash and cash equivalents:** Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits at banks, certificates of deposit at banks with an original maturity of three months or less and a money market fund with a brokerage firm. Cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 include $17.0 million and $5.2 million, respectively, of certificates of deposit with an original maturity of three months or less, and $18.1 million and $10.6 million, respectively, in the money market fund.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had deposits in U.S. banks in excess of federally insured limits of approximately $44.0 million. As of December 31, 2025, the Company held cash in foreign bank accounts of approximately $58.7 million.

Certain transfers from the Company's Bahamas bank accounts to Company bank accounts in other countries require the approval of the Central Bank of The Bahamas. The equivalent United States dollar cash balances held in The Bahamas as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 were approximately $12.0 million and $7.7 million, respectively.

**Accounts receivable:** Accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amounts based on meter readings, contractual amounts, fixed fees plus reimbursables or time and materials per contractual agreements. Trade accounts receivable also represent our unconditional right, subject only to the passage of time, to receive consideration arising from our performance under contracts with customers. Trade accounts receivable include amounts billed and billable on construction contracts, service and maintenance contracts and contracts for the sale of goods. Billed contract receivables have been invoiced to customers based on contracted amounts.

**Allowance for credit losses:** The allowance for credit losses is the Company's best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company's existing accounts receivable and contract assets balances. The Company determines the current expected credit losses based on historical loss experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The Company also considers the nature of the financial asset, the credit quality of the counterparty, and other relevant factors.

Past due balances are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance for credit losses after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered by management to be remote.

**Inventory:** Inventory primarily consists of consumables stock and spare parts stock that are valued at cost, less an allowance for obsolescence, with cost determined on the first-in, first-out basis. Inventory also includes (i) raw materials purchased for specific manufacturing contracts that are valued at cost on the first-in, first-out basis; and (ii) potable water held in the Company's reservoirs that is valued at the lower of the average cost of producing water during the year or its net realizable value.

**Contract assets and liabilities:** Billing practices for the Company's contracts are governed by the contract terms of each project based upon costs incurred, achievement of milestones or predetermined schedules. Billings do not necessarily correlate with revenue, which is recognized over time using the input method based on cost incurred. The Company records contract assets and contract liabilities to account for these differences in timing.

Contract assets, which include costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts, arise when the Company recognizes revenue for services performed under its construction and manufacturing contracts, but the Company

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

is not yet entitled to bill the customer under the terms of the contract. Contract liabilities, which include billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts, represent the Company's obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has been paid by the customer or for which the Company has billed the customer under the terms of the contract. Revenue for future services reflected in this account is recognized, and the liability is reduced, as the Company subsequently satisfies the performance obligation under the contract.

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts and billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts are typically resolved within one year and are not considered significant financing components.

The Company considers retention that is withheld on progress billings as not creating an unconditional right to payment until contractual milestones are reached (typically substantial completion). Accordingly, withheld retention is considered a component of contracts assets and liabilities until finally billed to the customer, when obligations have been satisfied and the right to receipt is subject only to the passage of time.

The Company's contract assets and liabilities are reported in a net asset or liability position on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. The Company classifies contract assets and liabilities related to construction and manufacturing contracts in current assets and current liabilities as they will be liquidated in the normal course of contract completion, although this may require more than one year.

**Property, plant and equipment, net:** Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using a straight-line method with an allowance for estimated residual values. Rates are determined based on the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Buildings | 5 to 40 years |
| Plant and equipment | 4 to 40 years |
| Distribution system | 3 to 40 years |
| Office furniture, fixtures and equipment | 3 to 10 years |
| Vehicles | 3 to 10 years |
| Leasehold improvements | Shorter of 5 years or lease term |
| Lab equipment | 5 to 10 years |

---

Assets under construction are recorded as additions to property, plant and equipment upon completion of the projects. Depreciation commences in the month the asset is placed in service. Additions to construction in progress are comprised of the cost of the contracted services, direct labor and materials.

Interest costs directly attributable to the acquisition and construction of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial amount of time to be ready for their intended use, are added to the cost of those assets until such time as the assets are substantially ready for use. No interest was capitalized during the years ended December 31, 2025 or 2024.

**Long-lived assets:** Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable. Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or a significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets is not recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company recognizes an impairment loss only if their carrying amounts are not recoverable through their undiscounted cash flows and measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amounts and estimated fair values.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

**Goodwill and intangible assets:** Goodwill represents the excess cost of an acquired business over the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the acquired business as of the date of acquisition. Goodwill and intangible assets recorded as a result of a business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized but are tested for impairment annually or upon the identification of a triggering event. Intangible assets with estimable useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values and reviewed periodically for impairment. The Company evaluates the possible impairment of goodwill annually as part of its reporting process for the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. Management identifies the Company's reporting units for goodwill impairment testing purposes, which consist of Cayman Water, the bulk segment (which is comprised of CW-Bahamas and OC-Cayman), PERC, REC, and the manufacturing segment (i.e., Aerex), and determines the carrying value of each reporting unit by assigning the assets and liabilities, including the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units. The Company determines the fair value of each reporting unit and compares these fair values to the carrying amounts of the reporting units. To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, an impairment loss is recorded.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company elected to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it was necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment testing that was conducted in prior years for its reporting units. The Company assessed the relevant events and circumstances to evaluate whether it is more likely than not that the fair values of such reporting units were less than their carrying values. The events and circumstances assessed for each reporting unit included macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance, and other relevant events. Based upon this qualitative assessment, the Company determined that it is more likely than not that the fair values of its reporting units exceeded their carrying values as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

**Investments:** Investments where the Company does not exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee and holds less than 20% of the voting stock are recorded at cost. The Company uses the equity method of accounting for investments in common stock where the Company holds 20% to 50% of the voting stock of the investee and has significant influence over its operating and financial policies but does not meet the criteria for consolidation. The Company recognizes impairment losses on declines in the fair value of the stock of investees that are other than temporary.

**Income taxes:** The Company accounts for the income taxes arising from the operations of its United States subsidiaries under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities, if any, are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to the extent any deferred tax asset may not be realized.

The Company is not presently subject to income taxes in the other countries in which it operates.

**Revenue recognition:** Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company's customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

The following table presents the Company's revenue disaggregated by revenue source.

*Retail revenue*

The Company produces and supplies water to end-users, including residential, commercial and governmental customers in the Cayman Islands under an exclusive retail license issued to Cayman Water by the Cayman Islands government to provide water in two of the three most populated areas on Grand Cayman. Customers are billed on a monthly basis based on metered consumption and bills are typically collected within 30 to 45 days after the billing date. Receivables not collected within 45 days subject the customer to disconnection from water service.

The Company recognizes revenue from retail water sales at the end of the billing cycle based on the water supplied to the customers' premises. The amount of water supplied is determined and invoiced based upon water meter readings performed at the end of each month. All retail water contracts are month-to-month contracts. The Company has elected the "right to invoice" practical expedient for revenue recognition on its retail water sale contracts and recognizes revenue in the amount to which the Company has a right to invoice, recognizing this revenue from the transfer of goods or services to customers during the billing cycle.

*Bulk revenue*

The Company produces and supplies water to government-owned utilities in the Cayman Islands and The Bahamas.

OC-Cayman provides bulk water to the Water Authority-Cayman ("WAC"), a government-owned utility and regulatory agency, under three agreements. The WAC in turn distributes such water to properties in Grand Cayman outside of Cayman Water's retail license area.

The Company sells bulk water in The Bahamas through its majority-owned subsidiary, CW-Bahamas, under two agreements with the Water and Sewerage Corporation of The Bahamas ("WSC"), which distributes such water through its own pipeline system to residential, commercial and tourist properties on the island of New Providence.

The Company has elected the "right to invoice" practical expedient for revenue recognition on its bulk water sale contracts and recognizes revenue in the amount to which the Company has a right to invoice, recognizing this revenue from the transfer of goods or services to customers during the billing cycle.

*Services and Manufacturing revenue*

The Company designs, constructs, sells, operates and maintains, and provides consulting services related to water, wastewater and water reuse infrastructure through PERC. All of PERC's customers are companies or governmental entities located in the United States. The Company provides operations and maintenance and consulting services to companies and governmental entities located in the state of Colorado through REC.

The Company also provides design, engineering, management, procurement and construction services for desalination infrastructure through DesalCo, which serves customers in the Cayman Islands, The Bahamas and the British Virgin Islands.

The Company, through Aerex, is a custom and specialty manufacturer of systems and products applicable to commercial, municipal and industrial water production and treatment. Substantially all of Aerex's customers are U.S. companies.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Kalaeloa Desalco has signed a contract with the Honolulu Board of Water Supply pursuant to which it is presently designing and expects to construct and operate a 1.7 million gallons per day seawater reverse osmosis desalination plant in Oahu, Hawaii.

The Company generates construction, operations and maintenance, and design and consulting revenue from PERC and DesalCo; construction revenue from Kalaeloa Desalco; manufacturing revenue from Aerex; and operations and maintenance and consulting revenue from REC.

The Company recognizes revenue for its construction and custom/specialized manufacturing contracts (and some of its design contracts) over time under the input method, using costs incurred (which represents work performed) to date relative to the total estimated costs at completion to measure progress toward satisfying a contract's performance obligations as such measure best reflects the transfer of control of the promised good to the customer. Contract costs include labor, materials, subcontractor costs and other expenses. The Company follows this method since it can make reasonably dependable estimates of the revenue and costs applicable to the various stages of a contract. Under this input method, the Company records revenue and recognizes profit or loss as work on the contract progresses. The Company estimates total costs to be incurred and profit to be earned on each long-term, fixed price contract prior to the commencement of work on the contract and updates these estimates as work on the contract progresses. The cumulative amount of revenue recorded on a contract at a specified point in time is that percentage of total estimated revenue that incurred costs to date comprised of estimated total contract costs. Due to the extended time it may take to complete many of the Company's contracts and the scope and nature of the work required to be performed on those contracts, the estimations of total revenue and costs at completion are complicated and subject to many variables and, accordingly, are subject to changes. When adjustments in estimated total contract revenue or estimated total contract costs are required, any changes from prior estimates are recognized in the current period for the inception-to-date effect of such changes. The Company recognizes the full amount of any estimated loss on a contract at the time the estimates indicate such a loss. Any contract assets are classified as current assets. Contract liabilities on uncompleted contracts, if any, are classified as current liabilities.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company adjusted its prior year estimates of the total contract costs for two of its construction contracts. These changes in accounting estimates resulted in an increase in the services segment's income from operations and the Company's consolidated net income by $2,356,439 and $1,750,750, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2023. This adjustment increased basic and diluted earnings per share by $0.11 for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The Company has elected the "right to invoice" practical expedient for revenue recognition on its operations and maintenance and consulting contracts and recognizes revenue in the amount to which the Company has a right to invoice, recognizing this revenue from the transfer of goods or services to customers during the billing cycle.

During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company recognized $13,696,856, $18,613,466 and $77,411,792, respectively, of its services revenue from the transfer of goods or services to customers over time. The remaining services revenue of $32,615,469, $32,343,023 and $20,554,858, respectively, was recognized from the transfer of goods or services to customers when invoiced. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company recognized all of its manufacturing revenue from the transfer of goods or services to customers over time.

*Practical Expedients and Exemptions*

The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which the Company recognizes revenue at the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed.

**Comparative amounts:** Revenue of $965,487 for 2024 presented in the services segment as design and consulting revenue in the financial statements previously issued for 2024 has been reclassified to construction revenue in the services segment information for 2024 provided herein to conform to the current period's presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on consolidated or services segment revenue, gross profit, operating income or net income.

8. Discontinued operations – Mexico project development

In 2010, the Company began the pursuit, through its Netherlands subsidiary, CW-Cooperatief, and its Mexico subsidiary, NSC, of a project (the "Project") that encompassed the construction, operation and minority ownership of a 100 million gallons per day seawater reverse osmosis desalination plant to be located in northern Baja California, Mexico and accompanying pipelines to deliver water to the Mexican potable water system.

Through a series of transactions that began in 2012, NSC purchased 20.1 hectares of land for approximately $21.1 million on which the proposed Project's plant was to be constructed.

In November 2015, the State of Baja California (the "State") officially commenced a public tender for the Project, and in June 2016 a consortium comprised of NSC and two other parties was selected by the State as the winner of the tender process for the Project. NSC subsequently formed AdR to pursue the completion of the Project.

On August 22, 2016, the Public Private Partnership Agreement for the Project (the "APP Contract") was executed between AdR, the State Water Commission of Baja California ("CEA"), and the Government of Baja California, as represented by the Secretary of Planning and Finance and the Public Utilities Commission of Tijuana ("CESPT"). The APP Contract required AdR to design, construct, finance and operate a seawater reverse osmosis desalination plant (and accompanying aqueduct) with a capacity of up to 100 million gallons per day in two phases: the first with a capacity of 50 million gallons per day and an aqueduct to the Mexican public water system in Tijuana, Baja California and the second phase with a capacity of 50 million gallons per day. The first phase was to be operational within 36 months of commencing construction and the second phase was to be operational by January 2025. The APP Contract further required AdR to operate and maintain the plant and aqueduct for a period of 37 years starting from the commencement of operation of the first phase. At the end of the operating period, the plant and aqueduct would have been transferred to CEA.

On June 29, 2020, AdR received a letter (the "Letter") from CEA and CESPT terminating the APP Contract. The Letter requested that AdR provide an inventory of the assets that comprised the "Project Works" (as defined in the APP Contract) for the purpose of acknowledging and paying the non-recoverable expenses made by AdR in connection with the Project, with such reimbursement to be calculated in accordance with the terms of the APP Contract. On August 28, 2020, AdR submitted their list of non-recoverable expenses, including those of NSC, to CEA and CESPT which amounted to 51,144,525 United States dollars and an additional 137,333,114 Mexican pesos.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

CW-Cooperatief, as a Netherlands company, had certain rights relating to its investments in NSC and AdR under the *Agreement on Promotion, Encouragement and Reciprocal Protection of Investments between the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the United Mexican States* entered into force as of October 1, 1999 (the "Treaty"). On April 16, 2021, CW-Cooperatief submitted a letter to the President of Mexico and other Mexican federal government officials alleging that the State's termination of the APP Contract constituted a breach by Mexico of its international obligations under the Treaty, entitling CW-Cooperatief to full reparation, including monetary damages. This letter invited Mexico to seek a resolution of this investment dispute through consultation and negotiation but stated that if the dispute cannot be resolved in this manner, CW-Cooperatief would refer the dispute to the International Centre for the Settlement of International Disputes for arbitration, as provided for in the Treaty.

In February 2022, CW-Cooperatief, filed a Request for Arbitration with the International Centre for Settlement of International Disputes ("ICSID") requesting that the United Mexican States pay CW-Cooperatief damages in excess of US$51 million plus MXN$137 million (with the exact amount to be quantified in the proceedings), plus fees, costs and pre- and post-award interest.

In May 2024, the Company, through CW-Cooperatief; NSC, and AdR, entered into a settlement agreement (the "Settlement Agreement") with the State and Banco Nacional de Obras y Servicios Públicos, S.N.C., as trustee under the trust agreement for the trust named Fondo Nacional de Infraestructura (the "Trust"). Under the Settlement Agreement, CW-Cooperatief requested that ICSID discontinue the arbitration and on May 31, 2024, ICSID issued an order discontinuing the arbitration. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Trust purchased the 20.1 hectares of land on which the Project's plant was to be constructed, including related rights of way (the "Land"), on an "as-is" basis, from NSC for MXN$596,144,000. The sale of the Land to the Trust was closed on June 14, 2024 at which time the MXN$596,144,000 was paid to the Company and converted at the prevailing exchange rate on that date into US$31,959,685.

In connection with the Settlement Agreement on June 14, 2024, the State also paid NSC MXN$20,000,000 to purchase certain documentation owned by NSC relating to the Project.

As a result of the Settlement Agreement: (i) the parties have been released from all obligations owed to each other in connection with the APP Contract and the arbitration; and (ii) no party to the Settlement Agreement may institute any legal proceedings against another party thereto with respect to the matters which have been addressed by the Settlement Agreement.

The Settlement Agreement and any matter arising out of or in connection with it are governed by the federal laws of Mexico.

The Company's net income (losses) from discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 were ($290,635), $10,355,184, and ($1,086,744), respectively.

---

Amortization expense was $595,260, $656,370 and $574,093 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

10. Leases

The Company's leases consist principally of leases for office and warehouse space. For leases with terms greater than twelve months, the related asset and obligation are recorded at the present value of the lease payments over the term. Many of these leases contain rental escalation clauses which are factored into the determination of the lease payments when appropriate. When available, the lease payments are discounted using the rate implicit in the lease; however, the Company's current leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company's incremental borrowing rate is estimated to discount the lease payments based on information available at the lease commencement.

These leases contain both lease and non-lease components, which the Company has elected to treat as a single lease component. The Company elected not to recognize leases that have an original lease term, including reasonably certain renewal or purchase obligations, of twelve months or less in its consolidated balance sheets for all classes of underlying assets.

12. Earnings per share

Earnings per share ("EPS") is computed on a basic and diluted basis. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (less preferred stock dividends) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted EPS assumes the issuance of common shares for all potential common shares outstanding during the reporting period and, if dilutive, the effect of stock options as computed under the treasury stock method.

The following summarizes information related to the computation of basic and diluted EPS:

14. Segment information

The Company has five reportable segments: retail, bulk, services, manufacturing and corporate. The retail segment operates the water utility for the Seven Mile Beach and West Bay areas of Grand Cayman pursuant to an exclusive license granted by the Cayman Islands government. The bulk segment supplies potable water to government utilities in Grand Cayman and The Bahamas under long-term contracts. The services segment designs, constructs and sells water infrastructure and provides management and operating services to third parties. The manufacturing segment manufactures and services a wide range of custom and specialized water-related products applicable to commercial, municipal and industrial water production, supply and treatment. The corporate segment consists of various expenses of a general and administrative nature incurred at the parent company level, as well as the expenses incurred by Aquilex, a U.S. subsidiary that provides financial, engineering, information technology, administrative and supply chain management support services to all the Company's subsidiaries and its affiliate.

Frederick W. McTaggart, Chief Executive Officer and President, is the Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM").

For the retail, bulk, services, and manufacturing segments, the CODM uses revenue, gross profit, and income before income taxes to assess segment performance and in deciding the allocation of resources to each segment. The CODM considers actual versus budget and current period versus prior period variances on a monthly, quarterly, and annual basis for each of these financial measures. The CODM also considers variances from the budget and the prior period for major corporate expenses (such as employee costs, insurance and professional fees) when making decisions regarding capital and resource allocation.

The accounting policies of the segments are consistent with those described in Note 2. All intercompany transactions are eliminated for segment presentation purposes. Intersegment revenue transactions are insignificant to the Company and are eliminated. Segment information previously disclosed in 2023 did not separately disclose those expenses currently reported in the corporate segment, as such expenses were previously included in the retail segment. The 2023 segment information provided herein has been recast to conform to the current period presentation.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

The Company's segments are strategic business units that are managed separately because each segment sells different products and/or services, serves customers with distinctly different needs and generates different gross profit margins.

The following sets forth the Company's income statements by segment.

15. Stock-based compensation

The Company has the following stock compensation plans that form part of its employees' and Directors' remuneration:

#### Employee Share Incentive Plan (Preferred Stock)
Employees (i.e., other than Directors and Officers), after four consecutive years of employment, become eligible to receive shares of the Company's preferred stock for $nil consideration under the Company's Employee Share Incentive Plan. Once an individual becomes eligible for this plan, they are awarded shares of preferred stock in the month of June following their date of eligibility for the plan (the "grant date") and in June of each subsequent year of the individual's employment for as long as the individual remains employed with the Company. If the employee remains with the Company through the fourth anniversary of a grant date, the preferred stock can be converted into shares of the Company's common stock on a one for one basis. In addition, at the time the preferred stock is granted, the employee receives options to purchase an equal number of shares of preferred stock at a discount to the average trading price of the Company's common stock for the first seven days of the October immediately preceding the date of the preferred stock grant. If these options are exercised, the shares of preferred stock obtained may also be converted to shares of common stock if the employee remains with the Company through the fourth anniversary of a grant date. Each employee's option to purchase shares of preferred stock must be exercised within 30 days of the grant date, which is the 90<sup>th</sup> day after the date of the independent registered public accountants' audit opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Shares of preferred stock not subsequently converted to shares of common stock are redeemable only at the discretion of the Company. Shares of preferred stock granted under this plan during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 totaled 8,534, 5,904 and 13,309, respectively, and an equal number of preferred stock options were granted in each of these years.

#### Employee Share Option Plan (Common Stock Options)
The Company has an employee stock option plan for four long-serving employees of the Company. Under the plan, these employees are granted in each calendar year, as long as the employee is a participant in the Employee Share Incentive Plan, options to purchase common shares. The price at which the option may be exercised is the closing market price on the grant date, which is the 40<sup>th</sup> day after the date of the Company's Annual Shareholder Meeting. The number of options each employee is granted is equal to five times the sum of (i) the number of shares of preferred stock that employee receives for $nil consideration and (ii) the number of preferred stock options that employee exercises in that given year. Options may be exercised during the period commencing on the fourth anniversary of the grant date and ending on the 30<sup>th</sup> day after the fourth anniversary of the grant date. Options granted under this plan during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 totaled 1,695, 1,300 and 3,010, respectively.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatilities of the Company's

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

common stock. The expected term of options granted is based on historical data and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The Company uses historical data to estimate stock option exercises and forfeitures within its valuation model. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.

#### 2008 Equity Incentive Plan
On May 14, 2008, the Company's stockholders approved the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2008 Plan") and reserved 1,500,000 shares of the Company's common shares for issuance under this plan. All Directors, executives and key employees of the Company or its affiliates are eligible for participation in the 2008 Plan which provides for the issuance of common stock options, shares of common stock and common stock equivalents at the discretion of the Board.

The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense at fair value for all share-based payments, including stock options. Stock-based compensation for the Employee Share Incentive Plan, Employee Share Option Plan and the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan totaled $390,282, $142,566 and $703,289 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

The significant weighted average assumptions for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **2025** | **2024** | **2023** |
| Risk free interest rate | 4.17% | 5.23% | 5.06% |
| Expected option life (years) | 0.7 | 0.8 | 1.0 |
| Expected volatility | 25.29% | 32.93% | 42.42% |
| Expected dividend yield | 1.48% | 1.48% | 1.60% |

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) The intrinsic value of a stock option represents the amount by which the fair value of the underlying stock, measured by reference to the closing price of the common shares of $35.29 on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on December 31, 2025, exceeds the exercise price of the option.

As of December 31, 2025, 9,670 non-vested options were outstanding, with weighted average exercise price of $22.08, and average remaining contractual life of 1.69 years. The total remaining unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested stock-based arrangements were $33,222 as of December 31, 2025, and are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.69 years.

#### Senior Management Long-Term Incentive Compensation
The Board of Directors has established the long-term incentive compensation for the Company's senior management to better align the interests of its senior management with those of its shareholders. The long-term compensation plan includes a combination of performance and non-performance-based grants of common stock from the shares of Company stock provided for issuance under the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan.

The non-performance-based stock grant rights, which are issued on January 1 of each year, vest in one-third increments at the end of each year over a three-year period. The number of non-performance-based stock grant rights issued on the first stock trading day of January 2025, 2024, and 2023, were 17,275, 12,837 and 29,508, respectively. These stock grant rights vest in one-third increments over the three-year periods ending December 31, 2027, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

#### Non-Executive Directors' Share Plan
This stock grant plan provides part of the Directors' remuneration. Under this plan, non-Executive Directors receive a combination of cash and common stock for their participation in Board meetings. The number of shares of common stock granted is calculated based upon the market price of the Company's common stock on October 1 of the year preceding the grant. Common stock granted under this plan during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, totaled 13,897, 11,448 and 22,831 shares, respectively. The Company recognized stock-based compensation for these share grants of $372,752, $333,140 and $341,394 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

**Other Stock Expense**

In 2025, the Company issued 2,000 shares of its common stock for professional services at an expense to the Company of $69,440.

16. Retirement benefits

Retirement plans are offered to all employees in California, Florida, Colorado, the Cayman Islands and The Bahamas. The plans are administered by third parties and are defined contribution plans pursuant to which the Company matches participating employees' contributions up to certain amounts. The Company's expense for these plans was $918,496, $898,457 and $771,616 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

17. Financial instruments

#### Credit risk:
The Company is not exposed to significant credit risk on its retail customer accounts as its policy is to cease supply of water to customers' accounts that are more than 45 days overdue. The Company's exposure to credit risk is concentrated on receivables from its bulk water, services, and manufacturing customers. The Company considers these receivables fully collectible and therefore has not recorded a material allowance for these receivables.

#### Interest rate risk:
The Company is not subject to significant interest rate risk arising from fluctuations in interest rates.

#### Foreign exchange risk:
All relevant foreign currencies other than the Mexican peso and the euro have been fixed to the dollar for more than 50 years and as a result, the Company does not employ a hedging strategy against exchange rate risk associated with the reporting in dollars. If any of these fixed exchange rates become a floating exchange rate or if any of the foreign currencies in which the Company conducts business depreciate significantly against the dollar, the Company's consolidated results of operations could be adversely affected.

#### Fair values:
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the carrying amounts of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued compensation, dividends payable and other current liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company does not have assets and liabilities measured at fair value to present in the fair value hierarchy.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

18. Commitments and contingencies

#### Commitments
The Company has entered into employment agreements with certain executives, which expire through December 31, 2028 and provide for, among other things, base annual salaries in an aggregate amount of approximately $5.4 million, performance bonuses and various employee benefits.

The Company has purchase obligations totaling approximately $10.9 million as of December 31, 2025.

#### Contingencies
*Cayman Water*

The Company sells water through its Cayman Water retail operations under a license issued in July 1990 by the Cayman Islands government (the "1990 license") that granted Cayman Water the exclusive right to provide potable water to customers within its licensed service area. Pursuant to the 1990 license, Cayman Water has the exclusive right to produce potable water and distribute it by pipeline to its licensed service area, which consists of two of the three most populated areas of Grand Cayman Island: Seven Mile Beach and West Bay. In 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company generated approximately 26%, 24% and 17%, respectively, of its consolidated revenue and 39%, 38% and 26%, respectively, of its consolidated gross profit from the retail water operations conducted under the 1990 license.

The 1990 license was originally scheduled to expire in July 2010 but was extended several times by the Cayman Islands government in order to provide the parties with additional time to negotiate the terms of a new license agreement. The most recent express extension of the 1990 license expired on January 31, 2018. From that date until February 18, 2025, the Company continued to operate under the terms of the 1990 license, treating such terms as operative notwithstanding the expiration of the express extension. The Company continues to pay the royalty of 7.5% of the revenue that Cayman Water collects as required under the 1990 license.

In October 2016, the Government of the Cayman Islands passed legislation which created a new utilities regulation and competition office ("OfReg") and, in April 2017, passed supplemental legislation which transferred responsibility for the economic regulation of the water utility sector and the negotiations with the Company for a new retail license to OfReg.

Under the new regulatory legislation passed in October 2016, Cayman Water was required to first be granted a concession by the government before obtaining a new (or renewing the old) retail operating license. On February 18, 2025, Cayman Water received a new concession from the government that authorizes and maintains the terms of the 1990 license until a new license from OfReg is negotiated and enacted. Negotiations between Cayman Water and OfReg for the new license remain on-going.

The Company has been informed during its retail license negotiations, both by OfReg and its predecessor in these negotiations, that they seek to restructure the terms of the license in a manner that could significantly reduce the operating income and cash flows the Company has historically generated from its retail license. The Company is presently unable to determine what impact the resolution of its retail license negotiations will have on its consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows but such resolution could result in a material reduction (or the loss) of the operating income and cash flows the Company has historically generated from Cayman Water's retail operations and could require the Company to record impairment losses to reduce the carrying values of its retail segment assets. Such impairment losses could have a material adverse impact on the Company's consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

*CW-Bahamas*

CW-Bahamas' accounts receivable balances (which include accrued interest) due from the WSC amounted to $20.7 million and $28.4 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. Approximately 71% and 81% of the accounts receivable balances were delinquent as of those dates, respectively. As of February 28, 2026, this receivable amounted to $22.6 million, of which 75% was delinquent.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

From time to time (including presently), CW-Bahamas has experienced delays in collecting its accounts receivable from the WSC. When these delays occur, the Company holds discussions and meetings with representatives of the WSC and the government of The Bahamas. All previous delinquent accounts receivable from the WSC, including accrued interest thereon, were eventually paid in full. Based upon this payment history, CW-Bahamas has not provided a material allowance for credit losses for its accounts receivable from the WSC as of December 31, 2025, or prior periods.

In a report dated October 6, 2022, Moody's Investor Services ("Moody's") downgraded The Bahamas' long-term issuer and senior unsecured ratings to B1 from Ba3. Moody's also lowered The Bahamas' local currency ceiling to Baa3 from Baa2 and its foreign currency ceiling to Ba1 from Baa3. Moody's has maintained these ratings through the date of its most current report issued in April 2025. Based upon the Company's review of this Moody's correspondence, the CW-Bahamas continues to believe that no material allowance for credit losses is required for CW-Bahamas' accounts receivable from the WSC.

If CW-Bahamas is unable to collect a sufficient portion of its delinquent accounts receivable, one or more of the following events may occur: (i) CW-Bahamas may not have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations; (ii) the Company may be required to cease the recognition of revenue on CW-Bahamas' water supply agreements with the WSC; and (iii) the Company may be required to provide an additional allowance for credit losses for CW-Bahamas' accounts receivable. Any of these events could have a material adverse impact on the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

*CW-Bahamas Supply Guarantees*

The contracts to supply water to the WSC from the Blue Hills and Windsor plants require CW-Bahamas to guarantee delivery of a minimum quantity of water per week. If the WSC requires the water and CW-Bahamas does not meet this minimum, CW-Bahamas is required to pay the WSC for the difference between the minimum and actual gallons delivered at a per gallon rate equal to the price per gallon that the WSC is currently paying CW-Bahamas under the contract. The Blue Hills contract expires in 2032 and requires CW-Bahamas to deliver 63.0 million gallons of water each week. The Windsor contract expires in 2033 and requires CW-Bahamas to deliver 16.8 million gallons of water each week. CW-Bahamas has been in compliance with the supply guarantees under these contracts for all periods since the inception of the contracts.

*Fiscal, Regulation and Other Federal Policies*

Significant changes in, and uncertainty with respect to, legislation, regulation, government policy and economic conditions could adversely affect the Company's business. Specific legislative and regulatory proposals that could have a material impact on the Company include, but are not limited to, modifications to international trade policy (such as tariffs); public company reporting requirements; and environmental regulation.

The Company cannot predict what actions may ultimately be taken with respect to tariffs or trade relations between the U.S. and other countries, what products may be subject to such actions, or what actions may be taken by the other countries in retaliation. Accordingly, it is difficult to predict how such actions may impact the Company's business, or the business or habits of its customers. The Company's business operations, as well as the businesses of its customers on which it is substantially dependent, are located in countries at risk for escalating trade disputes, including the U.S. Any resulting trade wars could have a significant adverse effect on world trade and could adversely impact the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

20. Impact of recent accounting standards

#### Adoption of new accounting standards:
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, *Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*. The ASU requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity's effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional information on income taxes paid. The Company adopted the standard as of December 31, 2025, including a recast of 2024 and 2023 information, by including the additional required disclosures within the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The adoption this guidance did not impact the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

**Effect of newly issued but not yet effective accounting standards:**

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.* The ASU requires public companies to disclose, in the notes to financial statements, specific information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period. The amended ASU is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its financial statements.

**21. Subsequent events**

The Company evaluated subsequent events through the time of the filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K. Other than as disclosed in these consolidated financial statements, the Company is not aware of any significant events that occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date but prior to the filing of this report that would have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

**Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

Disclosure controls and procedures are the Company's controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the possible controls and procedures.

Our management has evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

**Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

(a) Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Company management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by the Company's Board of Directors, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that:

● pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;

● provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and Directors of the Company; and

● provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in *Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013)*.

Based on that assessment, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective at the reasonable assurance level.

The Company's independent registered public accounting firm, CBIZ CPAs P.C., has issued a report on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Their report appears in ITEM 9A(b).

**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM** 

**ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING**

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of

**Consolidated Water Co. Ltd.**

**Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

We have audited Consolidated Water Co. Ltd.'s (the "Company") internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in 2013. In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in COSO.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB"), the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements") for the year ended December 31, 2025 of the Company, and our report dated March 16, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

**Basis for Opinion**

The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying "Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting". Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

[**Table of Contents**](#TOC)

Because of the inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
