DENVER, CO / ACCESSWIRE / October 10, 2024 / Pure Cycle Corporation (NASDAQ Capital Market:PCYO) is pleased to announce that Sky Ranch Metropolitan District No. 1, CO (District No. 1), was assigned an investment grade rating ‘BBB' long-term rating by S&P Global Ratings for refinancing of its 2019 Bonds. Sky Ranch Metropolitan District No. 1 is a member of the Sky Ranch Community Authority Board (Sky Ranch CAB) which encompasses Pure Cycle's development site known as the Sky Ranch Master Planned Community (Sky Ranch).

District No. 1 is the governmental boundary for the development of Pure Cycle's Phase 1 of Sky Ranch. All development within the district's approximate 151 acres are complete, incorporating 509 completed homes. The S&P Global Rating reflects the district's mature status, the quality of their financial controls, and their stable financial outlook of Sky Ranch CAB.

"We are pleased to receive this highly coveted investment grade rating from the S&P Rating which reiterates our professional stewardship in managing the Sky Ranch CAB and our Sky Ranch Master Planned Community" commented Mark Harding, CEO of Pure Cycle. "An investment rated bond will lower the borrowing cost of District No. 1 and allow for additional net funds to repay Pure Cycle's advances in constructing public improvements at Sky Ranch. The transaction is moving towards completion and is expected to price and close in November, yielding approximately $10 million (depending on pricing) in additional funds to pay down the Sky Ranch CAB Note Receivable," continued Mr. Harding.
