Consolidated Water Co Ltd (CWCO) Q2 2025 Earnings Call Highlights: Strong Revenue Growth and ...

Release Date: August 12, 2025 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. Positive Points Consolidated Water Co Ltd (NASDAQ:CWCO) reported a 3% increase in total revenues for Q2 2025, with a notable 23% rise in fully diluted earnings per share from continuing operations compared to the previous year. The retail and manufacturing segments showed strong performance, with revenue increases of 6% and 33% respectively, driven by higher water sales and increased production of higher margin products. The company successfully completed an expansion of its West Bay seawater desalination plant, adding an additional 1 million gallons per day of production capacity to meet growing demand in Grand Cayman. Consolidated Water Co Ltd (NASDAQ:CWCO) increased its quarterly cash dividend by 27% to $0.14 per share, reflecting strong financial health and commitment to returning value to shareholders. The company has a strong balance sheet with cash and cash equivalents totaling approximately $112.2 million as of June 30, 2025, providing ample liquidity for future investments and growth opportunities. Negative Points The Caribbean-based bulk water segment experienced a slight revenue decline due to lower fuel pass-through charges, although profitability improved due to plant efficiencies and reduced operating costs. The services segment saw a decrease in revenue, primarily due to the completion of the pilot plant testing phase of the Hawaii project, leading to reduced project expenditures until construction begins. The construction phase of the Hawaii project faces potential delays due to permits required from the client, which are outside of Consolidated Water Co Ltd (NASDAQ:CWCO)'s control. The company reported a decrease in net income and EPS from 2024 to 2025 due to discontinued operations, specifically the gain on the sale of land and project documentation for a discontinued project in Mexico. The Bahamas government has been slow in paying their bills, although there have been recent improvements in payment schedules. Q & A Highlights Warning! GuruFocus has detected 7 Warning Sign with CWCO. Q: Can you provide an overview of the market opportunities for Consolidated Water Co Ltd in the Caribbean and the U.S., particularly for PERC and REC? A: (CEO, Rick McTaggart) In the U.S., particularly in the West and Southwest, there is continued interest in wastewater projects driven by developments and small industrial projects. These projects range from $10 to $30 million in size. In California, the focus is on O&M contract renewals. In Colorado, we see opportunities for upgrades and expansions of wastewater and water treatment facilities, especially north of Denver. In the Caribbean, we are focused on the Cayman Islands and the Bahamas, with new projects like the Cat Island plants in the Bahamas. Q: How does the expansion of the Air X facility in Fort Pierce impact your manufacturing capabilities? A: (CEO, Rick McTaggart) The expansion will significantly increase our capacity by freeing up shop floor space for higher throughput on fabrication. This allows us to take on larger projects and increase revenue from the manufacturing business. The additional space will enable complex assembly work without occupying welder space, enhancing overall efficiency. Q: What is the status of the Hawaii seawater desalination project, and what permits are still required? A: (CEO, Rick McTaggart) We are waiting on two major permits: an archaeological permit, which involves ensuring no historical artifacts are affected, and a health department approval for the water supply. The archaeological studies are complete, and we are working through the regulatory process. The design is nearly finished, and we expect to submit it for health department approval soon. Q: Can you discuss the progress on the receivables from the Bahamas government? A: (CEO, Rick McTaggart) We have made progress in discussions with the Bahamas government, and they have committed to scheduled payments to bring the account current. We are optimistic about reducing the receivable in the coming months, although it is not yet reflected in the current financials. Q: With a strong cash position and expected cash generation, how do you plan to allocate capital moving forward? A: (CEO, Rick McTaggart) We are actively pursuing M&A opportunities and exploring public-private partnership projects to address water shortages in the Southwest and Texas. Our strong cash position gives us an advantage in these long-term investments. We also raised the dividend last quarter and will continue to evaluate ways to return value to shareholders.
