Management Commentary “In Q2, we generated strong year-over-year growth,” commented Global Water Resources President and CEO, Ron Fleming. “The 9.9% increase in regulated revenue was primarily driven by the Tucson acquisition, the 2.7% organic active connections growth and higher water consumption in a rapidly expanding metropolitan region.

“Revenue also benefited from higher rates at GW-Farmers following a successful general rate case in Southern Arizona. We expect the additional revenue to help fund current and future customer needs, including high-quality water infrastructure and improved service for the communities we serve.

“As previously reported, we completed several significant 2025 capital investments to support growth and enhance long-term system reliability. These included recommissioning our Southwest Plant water reclamation facility, capital improvements to stay ahead of community growth, and the acquisition of seven water systems from the City of Tucson. While these projects increased depreciation as assets entered service, they expanded and strengthened our infrastructure, improved customer service capacity, and support long-term shareholder value.
