CARIBBEAN UTILITIES COMPANY, LTD. ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER 2025 RESULTS
Caribbean Utilities Company, Ltd. is listed for trading in United States dollars on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the trading symbol "CUP.U". GRAND CAYMAN, Cayman Islands, May 7, 2025 /CNW/ - Caribbean Utilities Company, Ltd. ("CUC or the "Company") announced its consolidated unaudited results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 ("First Quarter 2025" or "Q1 2025") (all figures stated in United States Dollars). Highlights for the period were as follows: View PDF Approval of the majority of the 2025-2029 Capital Investment Plan ("CIP") by the regulator. The capital plan will enable further investments in grid hardening, customer affordability programmes, and projects to support low-carbon energy transformation. Customer Affordability Upgrades to existing thermal generation have led to improved fuel efficiency. Decreasing fuel prices, the aforementioned upgrades, combined with the implementation of battery energy systems ("BESS"), have led to the successful reduction of fuel factor charges for customers by 20% for Q1 2025 when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024 ("First Quarter 2024" or "Q1 2024"). Fuel costs are passed through to consumers on a two-month lag basis with no markup. Financial Growth Capital expenditure of $21.9 million was primarily related to distribution system extension and upgrades, life cycle upgrades of generating units and resiliency projects. Net earnings for the First Quarter 2025 were $7.6 million, a $1.4 million increase compared to net earnings of $6.2 million for the First Quarter 2024. 2% increase in kilowatt-hour ("kWh") sales. For Q1 2025, the quarterly dividend for Class A shares was $0.185 per share compared to $0.18 of Q1 2024 "CUC is committed to delivering investments that are both affordable and environmentally beneficial for our customers. Investments in capital projects, namely the life cycle upgrades to generating units and the battery energy systems ("BESS") have proven to be prudent investments as customers have seen a reduction in fuel factor rates on their bills. CUC is committed to ensuring our customers receive reliable, safe, sustainable and affordable energy," said President and CEO, Mr. Richard Hew. Net Earnings and Sales Revenues Net earnings for Q1 2025 were $7.6 million, a $1.4 million increase from net earnings of $6.2 million for the First Quarter of 2024. This increase is primarily attributable to higher operating income and higher net other income. Net Other Income for three months ended March 31, 2025, was $1.2 million, a $0.6 million increase compared to $0.6 million for three months ended March 31, 2024. In Q1 2025, sales reached 170.8 million kWh, a 2% increase—or 2.7 million kWh—compared to Q1 2024. This growth was fueled by an expanding customer base and a 4% rise in sales among large commercial customers. During the first three months of 2025, the Cayman Islands welcomed 144,395 stay-over visitors, up 5.3% from the same period in 2024, underscoring the economic growth driving higher energy demand, particularly within the tourism sector. After the adjustment for dividends on the preference shares of the Company, earnings on Class A Ordinary Shares for Q1 2025 were $7.5 million, or $0.18 per Class A Ordinary Share, as compared to $6.0 million, or $0.16 per Class A Ordinary Share, for Q1 2024. Key Updates In October 2024, the Company submitted its 2025-2029 Capital Investment Plan ("CIP") to the Utility Regulation and Competition Office ("URCO" or the "Regulator") for approval. In February 2025, URCO approved the majority of projects included in the CIP, with two exceptions requiring further consideration. The 2025-2029 CIP approved by URCO amounts to $430 million, with $60 million related to grid hardening, $6.6 million related to customer energy efficiency, and $2.6 million related to low carbon energy transformation. The Company submitted a Certificate of Need ("CON") to URCO on June 7, 2024, as specified in the Company's Transmission and Distribution Licence (2008). In recognition of the evolving energy demand on Grand Cayman, the submitted CON included four scenarios. CUC recommended a scenario that involved the addition of 36.1 MW of thermal capacity and 100 MW of solar plus storage to be connected by June 1, 2027. If accepted, the proposal will reduce consumer costs and meet or exceed the incremental targets of the NEP by 2027, achieving 39% renewable energy penetration and reducing CO2 emissions by 28% compared to 2019 levels. On April 25, 2025, URCO issued the Final Determination on the CON. The approved scenario involves 90.1 MW of thermal capacity only. CUC is currently reviewing the Final Determination. CUC remains committed to pursuing innovative and cost-effective solutions that ensure energy reliability, affordability, and sustainability for the community. CUC's First Quarter 2025 results and related Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") are attached to this release and incorporated by reference. The MD&A section of this report contains a discussion of CUC's unaudited First Quarter 2025 results, the Cayman Islands economy, liquidity and capital resources, capital expenditures and the business risks facing the Company.

Customer Support Successful implementation of mid-month consumption reports for residential customers. This initiative complements the Customer Connect tool, which is a free resource available on the Company's website for all residential and small business consumers. The mid-month consumption reports allow for increased customer awareness of energy consumption. Financial Growth Capital expenditure of $100.6 million was invested in the construction of the BESS, LCU, Resiliency projects and upgrade of its generation, transmission and distribution assets. Net earnings for the year ending December 31, 2024, were $42.7 million, a $4.0 million increase compared to net earnings of $38.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. 3% increase in kilowatt-hour ("kWh") sales. 3% increase in the quarterly dividend from $0.18 to $0.185 per Class A Ordinary Share. The Company published its first Green Financing Framework ("Framework"). The Framework sets out the Company's standards for financing and refinancing projects through green financing instruments. The $50.0 million in Green Note proceeds is being used to refinance and finance eligible projects in three categories: energy efficiency, climate change adaptation and clean transportation. "CUC is dedicated to providing cost-effective and environmentally positive investments for our customers. Our 2024 achievements in capital projects reflect the hard work and dedication of our team to deliver the highest quality service to our customers. Looking ahead, CUC will remain steadfast in our commitment to ensuring our customers receive reliable, safe, and cost-effective energy," said President and CEO, Mr. Richard Hew. Net Earnings and Sales Revenues Net earnings for the Fiscal 2024 were $42.7 million, a $4.0 million increase from net earnings of $38.7 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 ("Fiscal 2023"). This increase was attributable to a 3% increase in kWh sales, 3.2% base rate increase effective June 1, 2024 and the Z-Factor revenue for BESS and Resiliency projects. These factors were partially offset by higher depreciation, general and administrative expenses and maintenance costs. In addition to increase in operating income, the net other income increased in Fiscal 2024 due to higher income from pipeline operation, recovery of billing in arrears related to pole attachment and lower finance charges. Sales in kWh for Fiscal 2024 were 749.3 million kWh, an increase of 22.3 million kWh or 3% compared to Fiscal 2023. The increase was driven by customer growth and increase in average customer consumption for residential and large commercial customers-. Despite the relatively cooler weather and increased rainfall, a record peak load of 128.0 MW was experienced on September 17, 2024. Total customers as of December 31, 2024, were 34,280 an increase of 2% when compared to 2023. Fuel factor and renewable costs are a pass-through at cost to customers. Fuel Factor consists of charges from diesel fuel and lubricating oil costs, which are passed through to consumers on a two-month lag basis with no mark-up. The average Fuel Cost Charge rate charged to consumers for Fiscal 2024 was $0.23 per kWh, compared to the Fuel Cost Charge rate of $0.24 per kWh for Fiscal 2023. The average fuel price per imperial gallon ("IG") for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $3.90, compared to $4.24 for the year ended December 31, 2023. After the adjustment for dividends on the preference shares of the Company, earnings on Class A Ordinary Shares for Fiscal 2024 were $41.7 million, or $1.08 per share, as compared to $37.7 million, or $1.00 per share for Fiscal 2023. Key Updates In 2024, the Company made significant strides in its Environment, Social, and Governance ("ESG") objectives. The Company maintained its environmental management system and is registered to ISO 14011:2015. This standard requires an external audit and in 2024, CUC retained the certification with no major non-conformances. This recertification demonstrates the Company's commitment to its ESG objectives and its commitment to being environmentally prudent. Despite the significant hurricane activity in the Caribbean region in 2024, CUC was able to renew its annual property insurance with no change in coverage and on favourable rate terms. The Company continues its efforts to improve the resiliency of its infrastructure to mitigate the risk of property damage due to climate change and weather events. In 2024, the Company achieved an average of 1.8 hours of outage time per customer. This achievement is in line with North American standards and a testament to the investment in reliability efforts made by CUC. The Company will continue to focus on resiliency in 2025 with the hardening and undergrounding of major transmission lines. These efforts will continue to allow for better uninterrupted service for customers and will allow for quicker restoration of service during major weather events. In August of 2024, the Company's Green Financing Framework (the "Framework") was published. This Framework outlined the Company's standards for financing and refinancing projects through green financing instruments. The framework was assessed by second-party opinion provider, Sustainable Fitch, as excellent, and in Q4 2024, the Framework was awarded the title of Debt Deal of the Year - Caribbean through the Global Banking and Markets Latin America Awards. CUC remains committed to excellence in customer service, continuing to focus on programmes and projects designed to improve customer experience, service delivery, and customer education. During the year the Company successfully introduced proactive mid-month consumption notifications for residential customers to enhance customer education. This initiative complements the Customer Connect tool and allows the customer to monitor their daily energy usage and customise consumption level alerts so that customers can manage their consumption. Capital Projects In 2024, the Company invested $100.6 million in construction of the BESS, LCU, Resiliency projects and the upgrade of its generation, transmission and distribution assets. The above capital projects will enhance reliability, ensure safe delivery of electricity and provide fuel cost savings for the customers of Grand Cayman. Some of these projects will also assist in the reduction of carbon emissions, which is in line with the Company's target of 70% reduction of emissions by 2037.
