Denver,
Colorado – November 19, 2019 – Pure Cycle Corporation
(NASDAQ Capital Market: PCYO) (“Pure Cycle” or the
“Company”) today reported the Sky Ranch Community
Authority Board has successfully closed over $13 million in
municipal bond financing and repaid $10.5 million in public
improvement reimbursables to the Company.
On November 18, 2019, the Sky
Ranch Community Authority Board (the
“CAB”), a political subdivision
and a public corporation of the State of Colorado responsible for
the construction, design and financing of the public improvements
at Sky Ranch, successfully sold tax-exempt, fixed rate senior bonds
in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $11,435,000 and
tax-exempt, fixed-rate subordinate bonds in the aggregate principal
amount of approximately $1,760,000, generating approximately $10.5
million of net proceeds available to repay advances for public
improvements.
"We are
pleased with the successful issuance of Sky Ranch CAB’s first
municipal financing," commented Mark Harding, President of Pure
Cycle Corporation. “The CAB’s underwriter, Citigroup
Global Markets Inc., did a terrific job with this financing and
attributed the bonds being issued at a premium to their 5% coupon
to the success of the Company’s initial phase of Sky Ranch,
which allowed the CAB to raise more than $600,000 of additional
proceeds than originally estimated. We continue to finish
lots and our home builders continue to enjoy high demand for houses
at Sky Ranch. As we continue delivering lots ahead of our original
schedule, we look forward to breaking ground on our second phase
next summer, which will include a broad mix of residential product
offerings and commercial development along I-70 near the
interchange,” continued Mr. Harding.
