Press Release: Global Water Resources Reports Third Quarter 2025 Results

Dow Jones11-13

PHOENIX, Nov. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Global Water Resources, Inc. (NASDAQ: GWRS), a pure-play water resource management company, reported results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2025. Unless otherwise noted, all comparisons are to the corresponding period in the prior year. The company will hold a conference call at 1:00 p.m. Eastern time tomorrow to discuss the results (see dial-in information below).

Financial Highlights

   -- Total revenue increased 8.4% to $15.5 million for the third quarter of 
      2025 compared to the same prior year period. For the nine months ended 
      September 30, 2025, total revenue increased 7.0% to $42.2 million 
      compared to the same prior year period. The change in both periods was 
      primarily due to the recent acquisition of seven water systems from 
      Tucson Water, organic connection growth, and higher rates. 
 
   -- Net income decreased to $1.7 million or $0.06 per share for the third 
      quarter of 2025 compared to the same prior year period. For the nine 
      months ended September 30, 2025, net income decreased to $3.9 million or 
      $0.15 per share, a decrease of $1.4 million or 26.7% compared to the same 
      prior year period. The decrease in both periods primarily reflects the 
      company's capital improvement plan, which resulted in increased 
      depreciation expense and net interest expense. Buckeye growth premiums 
      also declined due to fewer new meter connections in the area. 
 
   -- Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP term, decreased 5.0% to $7.8 million in the 
      third quarter of 2025 (see definition of Adjusted EBITDA and its 
      reconciliation to GAAP, below) compared to the same prior year period. 
      For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, Adjusted EBITDA remained 
      consistent at $20.4 million compared to the same prior year period. 
 
   -- Declared three monthly cash dividends of $0.02533 per common share or 
      $0.30396 per common share on an annualized basis. 
 
   -- Received gross proceeds of approximately $13.1 million from a private 
      placement offering of common stock. 

Q3 2025 Operational Highlights

   -- Total active service connections at September 30, 2025 increased 6.6% to 
      68,130 compared to the same prior year period. 
 
   -- Annualized active service connection growth rate excluding the recent 
      acquisition of seven water systems was 3.3%. 
 
   -- Water consumption remained steady at 1.3 billion gallons. 
 
   -- Invested $14.2 million in infrastructure projects to support existing 
      utilities and continued growth. 
 
   -- Completed the company's previously announced acquisition of seven water 
      systems from Tucson Water, the City of Tucson's water utility. The assets 
      were acquired at a value equivalent to approximately 1.05 times the 
      current rate base of approximately $7.7 million and are expected to 
      generate approximately $1.5 million in revenue annually. 

Management Commentary

"In Q3, we saw continued strong top-line growth primarily driven by new connections associated with the acquisition of seven water systems from Tucson Water, organic connection growth, and the continued implementation of new rates from prior successful rate cases in several of our smaller systems in Southern Arizona," commented Global Water Resources President and CEO Ron Fleming. "It is exciting to close the Tucson Water transaction, not only because it is unique, but because it solidifies our Southern Arizona plan allowing for future consolidation of operations and rates across a broad customer base."

"Another major development for our company occurred in Q3. In late September, we saw Arizona's new 'Ag-to-Urban' program go into effect, with the Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR) actively accepting applications from landowners. The program allows landowners who cease agricultural operations to convert their water rights for use in new development.

"When you combine this with the previously announced Highway 347 widening project that is now officially in motion, we remain optimistic about strong growth both in the short term and long term.

"We also believe that Arizona's positive economic outlook has the potential to support the continued growth of our organic connections. According to Arizona's Office of Economic Opportunity, employment is expected to rise by 486,000 jobs through 2033--an annual growth rate of 1.3%, which is more than three times the national average of 0.4%.

"As it relates to our current rate proceeding, we are in the middle of the testimony process for our GW-Santa Cruz and GW-Palo Verde utilities. Our recent rebuttal testimony was filed on November 6, supporting a requested net revenue increase of approximately $4.3 million. The next steps include the parties filing their surrebuttal testimony on December 1, a final round of GW-Santa Cruz/GW-Palo Verde testimony on December 10, with the hearing commencing on December 15. After the hearing, the matter is then evaluated by an Administrative Law Judge who writes a Recommend Opinion and Order for the Commission's consideration. We still expect the case to conclude in the middle of 2026.

"We remain confident in our ability over time to deliver a strong total return to our shareholders while delivering safe, reliable service and balancing customer affordability as we navigate rate cases, especially when considering all the highlights reported in this earnings release. Rate cases are typically lengthy and uncertain processes, and we cannot make any guarantees in terms of timing or outcome.

"Looking ahead, we will focus on further extending the benefits of consolidation, regionalization, and proactive environmental management to the communities we serve. By executing our rate case strategy alongside our anticipation of ongoing organic growth, we believe we are well positioned for continued success over the long-term."

The increase in revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily attributable to the acquisition of seven water systems from the City of Tucson in July 2025, organic growth in active water and wastewater connections, higher rates for Global Water - Farmers Water Company, Inc. (GW-Farmers) resulting from the GW-Farmers general rate case, effective May 1, 2025, and higher rates for Global Water - Saguaro District Water Company, Inc. (GW-Saguaro), resulting from the GW-Saguaro general rate case, effective January 1, 2025. The increase in wastewater and recycled water service revenue was partially offset by an increase of $0.1 million in bill credits related to the company's Southwest Plant, which were effective beginning August 2024.

Operations and Maintenance

Higher personnel costs were primarily attributable to increased salaries and wages as a result of filling previously vacant positions and hiring additional employees for the newly acquired water systems from the City of Tucson, as well as increased medical costs.

The increase in other operations and maintenance expenses was primarily driven by expenses related to a storm event with heavy, short duration precipitation.

General and Administrative

Higher personnel costs were primarily driven by increased medical costs.

The increase in professional fees was largely attributable to higher legal fees associated with the Nikola bankruptcy.

The increase in other general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to higher costs associated with IT services, increased office rent, and higher general liability insurance costs.

Depreciation and Amortization

The increase for the three months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024 was substantially attributable to an increase in depreciable fixed assets.

Total Other Income (Expense)

Other expense totaled $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to an immaterial other income for the same period in 2024. The increase in other expense was substantially attributable to a $0.2 million decrease in interest income and lower income associated with Buckeye growth premiums of $0.3 million that resulted from a decrease in new meter connections in the area for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.

Net Income

Net income decreased $1.2 million or 41.3% to $1.7 million or $0.06 per share in the third quarter of 2025, compared to net income of $2.9 million or $0.12 per share in the third quarter of 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA decreased $0.4 million or 5.0% to $7.8 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $8.2 million in the same period in 2024.

The increase in revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to the organic growth in active water and wastewater connections, the acquisition of seven water systems from the City of Tucson in July 2025, increased water consumption, higher rates for GW-Saguaro, resulting from the GW-Saguaro general rate case, effective July 2024 and January 2025, and higher rates for GW-Farmers, resulting from the GW-Farmers general rate case, effective May 1, 2025. The increased consumption was predominantly driven by the increase in active connections and higher usage from irrigation, construction and commercial customers. The increase in wastewater and recycled water service revenue was partially offset by an increase of $0.4 million in bill credits related to the company's Southwest Plant, which were effective beginning August 2024.

Operations and Maintenance

Higher personnel costs were primarily attributable to increased salaries and wages as a result of filling previously vacant positions and hiring additional employees for the newly acquired water systems from the City of Tucson, as well as increased medical costs.

Higher utilities, chemicals and repairs were primarily the result of an increase in power purchased to operate pumps and other related equipment as a result of increased consumption, additional processing equipment in operation and utility rate increases. In addition, increased consumption was the primary driver of an increase in chemical costs.

The increase in other operations and maintenance expenses was primarily driven by expenses related to a storm event with heavy, short duration precipitation, additional contracts with IT service providers, and an increase in rent expense as a result of a new office lease in Pima County in December 2024.

General and Administrative

Higher personnel costs were primarily attributable to increased salaries and wages as a result of filling previously vacant positions, as well as increased medical costs.

The increase in other general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to higher costs associated with various service providers, increased costs related to municipality licensing-type agreements, higher general liability insurance costs, and increased office rent expense.

Depreciation and Amortization

The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was substantially attributable to a 11.3% increase in depreciable fixed assets.

Total Other Expense

Other expense totaled $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $0.8 million for the same period in 2024. The increase in total other expense was substantially attributable to a $0.4 million decrease in interest income, partially offset by higher allowance for equity funds used during construction of $0.2 million, as well as lower income associated with Buckeye growth premiums of $0.3 million that resulted from fewer new meter connections in the area for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.

Net Income

Net income decreased $1.4 million or 26.7% to $3.9 million or $0.15 per share in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to net income of $5.3 million or $0.22 per share in the same period in 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA remained consistent at $20.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024.

Dividend Policy

The company recently declared a monthly cash dividend of $0.02533 per common share (or $0.30396 per share on an annualized basis), payable on November 26, 2025, to holders of record at the close of business on November 12, 2025.

Business Strategy

Global Water's near-term growth strategy involves increasing service connections, improving operating efficiencies, and increasing utility rates as approved by the ACC. The company plans to continue aggregating water and wastewater utilities through strategic acquisitions and entity consolidation, which is expected to enable the company and its customers to realize the benefits of consolidation, regionalization, and environmental stewardship.

Connection Rates

As of September 30, 2025, active service connections increased by 4,241 or 6.6% to 68,130 compared to 63,889 at September 30, 2024. The increase in active service connections was primarily due to new connections associated with the seven acquired water systems from Tucson Water and organic growth in the company's service areas.

Arizona's Growth Corridor: Positive Population and Economic Trends

The company continues to experience organic growth exhibited through its year-over-year organic increase in active connections (i.e., exclusive of acquisition related growth) of 3.5% as of September 30, 2025. According to the 2024 U.S. Census estimates, the Phoenix metropolitan statistical area $(MSA)$ is the 10th largest MSA in the U.S. and had an estimated population of 5.2 million, an increase of 7.0% over the 4.8 million people reported in the 2020 Census. Growth in the Phoenix MSA continues as a result of its excellent weather, large and growing universities, a diverse employment base, and low taxes. The Employment and Population Statistics Department of the State of Arizona predicts that the Phoenix metropolitan area will have a population of 5.8 million people by 2030 and 6.5 million by 2040.

The company's organic growth continues to be primarily influenced by the comparatively lower cost of housing in the City of Maricopa relative to other areas within the Phoenix MSA. As of September 2025, the median home sales price in the City of Maricopa was 26% lower than in the City of Phoenix. The company continues to monitor potential effects on its operations due to changes in the macroeconomic environment, such as the impacts of tariffs on its operational costs and construction work in progress, as well as new home construction in the company's service areas. The company continues to expect a positive long-term outlook based on forecasted performance of job growth and construction in the Phoenix MSA housing market.

Although recent permit activity has generally declined year-over-year primarily as a result of macroeconomic headwinds and uncertainty surrounding tariffs and interest rates, management expects these pressures to be temporary. Management believes the company remains well-positioned to benefit from the anticipated long-term growth of the Phoenix MSA, supported by ample lot availability and strong existing infrastructure in its service areas.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

This press release contains certain financial measures that are not recognized measures under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), including EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per common share. EBITDA is defined for the purposes of this press release as net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding the gain or loss related to (i) nonrecurring events; (ii) restricted stock expense related to awards made to employees and the board of directors; and (iii) disposal of assets, as applicable. Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per common share reflect net income and diluted earnings per common share excluding (i) expenses related to severe weather events; and (ii) the tax effect of this item, as applicable.

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

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this press release and the related conference call include certain forward-looking statements which reflect the company's expectations regarding future events. The forward-looking statements involve a number of assumptions, risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about our strategies; expectations about future business plans, prospective performance, growth, and opportunities, including expected growth in and around metropolitan Phoenix and Tucson and the resulting potential for new service connections; future financial performance; regulatory and ACC proceedings, decisions, and approvals, such as the anticipated benefits resulting from rate decisions, including any collective revenue increases due to new water and wastewater rates, as well as the outcome, timing and other statements regarding our plans, expectations and estimates relating to our rate cases and other applications with the ACC; our plans relating to future filings of our rate cases with the ACC; acquisition plans and strategies, including our ability to complete additional acquisitions, and our expectations about future benefits of our acquisitions, such as projected revenue from such acquisitions, as well as our plans relating to the integration and upgrade of acquired water systems; statements concerning Arizona's Assured Water Supply "Ag-to-Urban" program and ADOT's SR 347 widening project, including anticipated benefits; population and growth projections; technologies, including expected benefits from implementing such technologies; revenues; metrics; operating expenses; trends relating to our industry, market, population and job growth, and housing permits; the adequacy of our water supply to service our current demand and growth for the foreseeable future; liquidity and capital resources; plans and expectations for capital expenditures; cash flows and uses of cash; dividends; depreciation and amortization; tax payments; our ability to repay indebtedness and invest in initiatives; the anticipated impact and resolutions of legal matters; the anticipated impact of new or proposed laws, including regulatory requirements, tax changes, and judicial decisions; the anticipated impact of accounting changes and other pronouncements; and other statements that are not historical facts, as well as statements identified by words such as "expects", "anticipates", "intends", "plans", "believes", "seeks", "estimates", or the negative of these terms, or other words of similar meaning. These statements are based on our current beliefs or expectations and are inherently subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, most of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to changes in political, economic, business, market, regulatory, and other factors. Factors that may also affect future results are disclosed under the headings "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), which are available at the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. This includes, but is not limited to, our most recently filed periodic reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q and subsequent filings with the SEC. Accordingly, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which reflect management's views as

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