Previous report
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.
Previous report
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. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we generated approximately 29% and 28%, respectively, of our consolidated revenue and 45% and 46%, respectively, of our consolidated gross profit from the retail water operations conducted under the 1990 license.
Previous report
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.
Previous report
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.
Previous report
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.
Previous report
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.

Previous wording
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.
