statements and the notes thereto included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual
Report on Form 10-K.

Executive Summary


We saw tremendous growth in each of our business lines in fiscal 2022. Our land
development segment was positively impacted by the continued development of our
Sky Ranch Master Planned Community (Phase 1 complete and Phase 2A nearly 80%
complete with Phase 2B on the horizon). We expanded our water assets by
completing a $3.0 million well and pipeline extension in the Box Elder Creek
basin and through the acquisition of 370 acre-feet of water in the Lost Creek
basin and had a record year for commercial water sales to oil and gas operators.
We launched our single-family home rental business with the completion and
rental of three homes and construction commenced on the next eleven units. Our
notable financial highlights from fiscal 2022 include the following:

Total revenues were $23.0 million, up from $17.1 million in 2021, primarily

? driven by the recognition of revenue related to lot sales at Sky Ranch and

record level water sales to oil and gas operators for use in their drilling

operations;

? Revenue from commercial water sales, which includes selling water to oil and

gas operators, was $4.1 million in 2022 compared to $3.3 million in 2021;

Recorded lot sales for 2022 were $12.2 million, compared to $5.8 million in

? 2021, which is due to the completion of Phase 1 and the focus on getting Phase

2A finished lots delivered by year end, despite the delays in permitting at the

county;

Pre-tax income was $12.7 million in 2022, which is down from $26.6 million in

2021. This is largely attributable to 2021 being positively impacted by the

? recognition of a note receivable related to public improvement reimbursables

allowing us to record $21.9 million of reimbursable income, project management

fees and interest income in 2021;

In 2022 we posted $0.40 of earnings per fully diluted common share, which is

? down from $0.83 in 2021, mainly due to the impact to earnings from the

recording of the reimbursables in 2021 as noted above;

? Total assets continue to increase to $129.2 million at August 31, 2022 from

$117.2 million at August 31, 2021; and

? Total equity increased to $113.0 million at August 31, 2022 from $102.7 million


   at August 31, 2021.


Recent Developments

The housing market deteriorated rapidly in the third quarter of calendar 2022 as
the Federal Reserve remained aggressive in its actions to combat inflation. As a
result, 30-year fixed mortgage rates continued to rise and ended the quarter at
their highest level in over 15 years. The magnitude and speed of these recent
rate increases has caused many buyers to pause and reconsider a home purchase.

We believe several long-term land development and housing market fundamental
factors remain positive, including favorable demographics, a lot and housing
supply-demand imbalance resulting from a decade-plus underproduction of new

homes in relation to

                                       39

population growth, and low resale home inventory. While we remain confident in
the long-term growth prospects for the industry given these factors, the current
demand for new homes is subject to continued uncertainty due to many factors.
The combination of sharply higher mortgage interest rates since early 2022,
several years of rising housing prices, elevated inflation, and various other
macroeconomic and geopolitical concerns, is moderating housing demand which is
expected to continue into 2023. Given current conditions, we plan to continue to
monitor market dynamics and surrounding community performance to determine
timing of additional construction expenditures at Sky Ranch. we believe our
reasonably priced lots and the low inventory of entry level housing in the
Denver market will help Sky Ranch navigate the changing market better than other
surrounding and significantly higher priced communities.

Our future performance and the strategies we implement (and adjust or refine as
necessary or appropriate) will depend significantly on prevailing economic,
homebuilding industry and capital, credit and financial market conditions and on
a fairly stable and constructive political and regulatory environment
(particularly regarding housing and mortgage loan financing policies). The
Federal Reserve's aggressive raising of the federal funds interest rate and
other measures during the first nine months of 2022 to moderate persistent U.S.
inflation, and the further actions it has stated it intends to take, are
expected to be an ongoing headwind for the housing market in 2022 and beyond, as
they have elevated mortgage loan interest rates, and created macroeconomic
uncertainty and volatility across financial markets. In addition, we and our
homebuilding partners continue to experience services and supply constraints and
rising and volatile raw material prices. Prolonged supply chain disruptions and
other production-related challenges could extend or delay our construction cycle
times and intensify construction-related cost pressures beyond our experience in
fiscal 2022. In addition, consumer demand for our homes, and our ability to grow
our scale, revenues and returns in fiscal 2023 could be materially and
negatively affected by the above-described monetary policy impacts or other
factors that curtail mortgage loan availability, employment or income growth or
consumer confidence in the U.S. or in the Colorado markets. The potential extent
and effect of these factors on our business is highly uncertain, unpredictable
and outside our control, and our past performance, including in fiscal 2022,
should not be considered indicative of our future results.

Fiscal 2022 vs. Fiscal 2021

Revenue - Total revenue increased in 2022 as compared to 2021, primarily due to
increased revenue from lot sales due to Phase 1 being completed early in fiscal
2022 and the recognition of revenue from the development of Phase 2A.
Additionally, commercial water sales, mainly to oil and gas operators for use in
their drilling operations, increased from $3.3 million in 2021 to $4.1 million
in 2022, as oil and gas operators increased drilling operations throughout the
front range of Colorado. These increases are partially offset by decreased tap
fees (from $5.2 million in 2021 to $4.9 million in 2022) due to timing of when
Phase 2A started in relation to when Phase 1 was completed, and project
management revenue (from $1.6 million in 2021 to $0.7 million in 2022). Project
management revenue declined from 2021, due to the recording of the cumulative
project management fees in 2021 which have been earned since the start of
development at the Sky Ranch community, which was booked in 2021 because of the
removal of the contingency of the collection of the fees. As Sky Ranch continues
to grow we expect lot sales to generate significant revenue in the future, and
increasing water and wastewater usage fees as we continue to add customers to
our water resource development segment.

Cost of revenue - Total costs of revenue increased marginally in 2022 as
compared to 2021, primarily due to water usage costs increasing due to the
significant increase in water sales to oil and gas operators, offset by a
decrease in land development costs that are expensed due to a change in how the
public improvements are accounted for as detailed further below and in Note 5 to
the accompanying financial statements.

General and administrative expense - General and administrative expense
increased in 2022 as compared to 2021, primarily due to the increased number of
employees and increased compensation for existing employees as operations and
development continue to expand.

Other income, net - Other income, net decreased in 2022 as compared to 2021,
primarily due to the 2021 recognition of outstanding reimbursable costs and
interest income totaling $20.2 million as the collection of these amounts was
deemed probable. Additional information on the reimbursables can be found in
Notes 5 and 15 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Additionally, in fiscal 2022 we recognized $0.1 million of interest expense
related to two notes payable we entered into with our primary lender for the
financing of the rental units and the Lost Creek Water purchase, both of which
are described in greater detail in Note 8 to the accompanying consolidated
financial statements.

Income tax expense - Income tax expense decreased in 2022 as compared to 2021,
due to lower pre-tax income primarily from the impact related to the recognition
of reimbursable costs due from the Sky Ranch CAB recognized in fiscal 2021. Our
effective tax rate remained relatively consistent year over year.

Water delivered - Water deliveries increased in 2022 as compared to 2021,
primarily due to increased sales to oil and gas operators, new Sky Ranch
customers and increased landscaping and irrigation water usage as more parks and
public spaces were completed at Sky Ranch. Oil and gas operations are highly
variable and dependent on oil prices, demand for gas, and timing of other leases
in our service areas; therefore, we cannot provide any assurances that we will
realize this level of sales to oil and gas customers in the future. As Sky Ranch
continues to develop, we anticipate continued growth in our residential water
and wastewater service revenues.

Water and wastewater tap sales - Water and wastewater tap sales decreased in
2022 as compared to 2021 due to the timing of closings at Sky Ranch. The
decrease in tap sales was offset by an increase in the rate per water tap sold
in 2022. Tap sales are driven by the issuance of building permits and the timing
of these are not contractually established with the home builders. During fiscal
2022, we sold 41 taps in Phase 1 and 113 taps in Phase 2A. We expect to sell the
remaining 116 taps in Phase 2A at Sky Ranch in fiscal 2023.

Lots delivered - The number of lots delivered (which refers to when title passed
on a lot to the homebuilder) decreased in 2022 compared to 2021 due to all lots
in Phase 1 of Sky Ranch having been delivered as of the first quarter of fiscal
2021, and 152 of the lots in Phase 2A having been delivered in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2021. During fiscal 2022, we delivered 67 finished lots to the
one builder in Phase 2A that is buying finished lots versus making milestone
payments as construction progresses. Despite the lots being transferred to the
homebuilders, we still have various construction activities to complete Phase 2A
and to turn over the completed infrastructure to the applicable governmental
agency for maintenance.

Municipal water usage - Municipal water usage increased in 2022 compared to
2021, primarily due to new Sky Ranch customers in our water and wastewater
resource development segment as well as increased water usage due to landscaping
and irrigation usage. We anticipate these revenues to continue to increase in
the future as more customers are added to our system as Sky Ranch continues to
develop.

Commercial water usage - The main component of commercial water usage is from
sales to oil and gas operators for use in their drilling process. Commercial
water sales increased during fiscal 2022, primarily due to increased oil and gas
prices and new fracking permits obtained by our oil and gas customers. Because
oil and gas is cyclical in nature as demand and prices fluctuate, we have no way
of knowing if water provided to oil and gas operators will increase or decrease
in the future. Commercial revenues in fiscal 2021 also included $0.4 million of
revenue recognized when a deposit on water from an oil and gas operator expired
unused and the deposit was forfeited.

Wastewater treatment fees - Wastewater treatment fees increased in 2022 compared
to 2021, primarily due to new Sky Ranch customers in our water and wastewater
resource development segment. We anticipate these revenues to continue to
increase in the future as more customers are added to our system as Sky Ranch
continues to develop.

Water and wastewater tap fees -Water and wastewater tap fees decreased in 2022
compared to 2021, primarily due to a decrease in the number of taps sold due to
timing on completion of Phase 1 and the start of Phase 2A, which was partially
offset by a price increase of water and wastewater taps. Water and wastewater
taps are sold to home builders at the time a building permit is issued and are
dependent on when the home builder constructs homes and not contractually driven
in terms of timing; therefore, timing of tap sales fluctuate with demand for new
construction. During the fiscal year ended 2022, the average price of a Sky
Ranch water and wastewater tap was $33,000 compared to $31,000 per tap for the
fiscal year 2021.

Other revenue - Other revenue decreased in 2022 as compared to 2021, primarily
due to a 2021 agreement to construct a special facility for WISE, for which $0.2
million and $0.4 million of revenue was recognized in fiscal 2022 and 2021. The
project recognized revenue on a percent of completion basis and was completed
during fiscal 2022.

  Table of Contents

Water service costs - Water service costs increased in 2022 as compared to 2021,
primarily due to increased water usage associated with our oil and gas customers
and additional purchases of WISE water.

Wastewater service costs - Wastewater service costs increased in 2022 as compared to 2021, primarily due to the Sky Ranch water reclamation facility increasing its production and requiring more staff to run.

Other costs of revenue - Other costs of revenue decreased in 2022 as compared to 2021, primarily due to fewer expenses remaining for the completion of the special facilities for WISE.

Water delivered - Water deliveries increased in 2022 as compared to 2021, primarily due to increased oil and gas operations, new Sky Ranch customers and increased landscaping and irrigation water usage.

Lot sales - Lot sales increased in 2022 as compared to 2021, primarily due to
Phase 1 being complete early in fiscal 2022 and Phase 2A revenue being
recognized throughout the year as construction progressed, with Phase 2A lot
delivery completed by the end of summer 2022.

Project management revenues - Project management revenues decreased in 2022 as
compared to 2021, which was due to the determination in 2021 that reimbursable
costs due from the Sky Ranch CAB are deemed probable of collection based on
projections showing the Sky Ranch CAB will generate sufficient funds from its
tax and fee income to repay us, resulting in the recognition of $1.5 million of
cumulative project management fees being recorded in 2021. We earn a 5% project
management fee on certain costs for managing the construction of public
improvements at Sky Ranch.

Land development construction and project management costs -  Land development
construction costs decreased in 2022 as compared to 2021, primarily due to Phase
1 being completed and Phase 2A construction progressing. The Phase 2A costs that
are expensed are lower than Phase 1 due to the treatment of public improvement
costs being added to the note receivable - related party versus being expensed
as they were during a portion of fiscal 2021, until collectability was deemed
probable.

Lots delivered - The number of lots delivered (which refers to when title is
passed to the homebuilder) decreased in 2022 compared to 2021 due to all lots in
Phase 1 of Sky Ranch having been delivered as of the first quarter of fiscal
2021, and 152 of the lots in Phase 2A having been delivered in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2021. During fiscal 2022, we delivered 67 finished lots to the
one builder in Phase 2A who is buying finished lots instead of making milestone
payments as construction progresses. Despite the lots being transferred to the
homebuilders, we still have various construction activities to complete Phase 2A
to turn over the completed infrastructure to the applicable governmental agency
that will maintain the infrastructure. Because we record lot sales as
construction progresses, the timing of revenue and lot deliveries are not
necessarily correlated.

Salary and Salary-Related Expenses - Salary and salary-related expenses
increased in fiscal 2022 compared to fiscal 2021 due to a larger employee base
to manage the development of our Sky Ranch property and our water and wastewater
systems, additional administrative staff, and increased compensation costs for
employees to continue to attract and retain top talent. During fiscal 2022, we
increased our staff by four employees. Share-based compensation expense
increased due to option grants in fiscal 2022 and the fair value of unrestricted
stock granted to non-employee board members in fiscal 2022.

Professional Fees - Professional fees consist mainly of legal and accounting fees, which remained consistent year over year.


Public Entity-Related Expenses, including director fees - Costs associated with
being a corporation and costs associated with being a publicly traded entity
consist primarily of XBRL and EDGAR conversion fees, stock exchange fees, and
press releases. These costs fluctuate from year to year but remained relatively
consistent from 2021 to 2022. Fees paid to our board increased in fiscal 2022
compared to fiscal 2021, due to the determination to increase director fees in
2022.

Corporate insurance - Corporate insurance costs increased as our operations continue to expand which is due to adding additional construction and rental home policies, and overall insurance rate increases.



All other - All other expenses include typical operating expenses related to the
maintenance of our office and equipment, business development, travel, property
taxes, and funding provided to the Rangeview District and the Sky Ranch
Districts. Other expenses decreased during fiscal 2022 compared to fiscal 2021.
The changes were primarily the result of decreased equipment maintenance and the
timing of various expenses, which will fluctuate year over year.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Financial Position



We believe we are well-positioned to navigate the ever-evolving market
conditions given our strong financial position. At August 31, 2022, our working
capital, defined as current assets less current liabilities, was $27.0 million,
which includes $34.9 million in cash and cash equivalents. We believe that as of
August 31, 2022, and as of the date of the filing of this Annual Report on
Form 10-K, we have sufficient working capital to fund our operations for the
next 12 months. We have completed Phase 1 and have completed nearly 80% of the
work required to deliver Phase 2A at Sky Ranch. Phase 2B is anticipated to begin
during fiscal 2023. We have sold 219 lots in Phase 2A at Sky Ranch and have just
over 20% of the construction related activities remaining for Phase 2A to be
finished, which we anticipate completing during our fiscal 2023. We expect to
spend $5.0 million in the next twelve months completing the construction of
Phase 2A (of which we estimate $4.3 million will be reimbursable by the Sky
Ranch CAB). We expect to begin Phase 2B during our fiscal 2023 and expect to
spend $17.5 million in the next twelve months on remaining Phase 2A and Phase 2B
construction activities. We anticipate receiving $19.0 million in milestone
payments and $3.1 million of water and wastewater taps fees from the
homebuilders over the same period. We believe we can fund such capital
expenditures from cash and cash equivalents on hand, phased payments from our
lot sales agreements, and payments from the Sky Ranch CAB for reimbursement

of
public improvements.

Changes in Operating Activities - Operating activities include amounts we receive from the sale of wholesale water and wastewater services, costs incurred in the delivery of those services, the sale of lots, the costs incurred in completing and delivering finished lots, and G&A Expenses.



Cash provided by operations in fiscal 2022 increased substantially as compared
to fiscal 2021, primarily related to the reimbursement of capitalized
reimbursable costs and interest of $24.1 million in 2022 and cash collections
from lot sales, partially offset by the timing differences on payments of
payables and accrued liabilities, deferred revenue, and federal and state income
taxes payable. The Sky Ranch CAB made payments to us totaling $24.1 million in
fiscal 2022 from funds received in the second bond offering issued by the Sky
Ranch CAB as well as excess funds from higher fees and property taxes collected
by the Sky Ranch CAB.

Changes in Investing Activities - Investing activities in fiscal 2022 consisted
primarily of the investment in our land and water system of $5.5 million.
Investing activities in fiscal 2021 consisted of the investment in our land and
water system of $2.5 million, and the purchase of equipment of $0.4 million. We
capitalize costs associated with obtaining, defending, enhancing, and developing
our water rights. We capitalize costs incurred to construct infrastructure
required to deliver water and wastewater services to our customers, and we
capitalize costs to develop our land assets that are not sold to home builders.

Changes in Financing Activities - Financing activities in 2022 consisted of proceeds from debt of $4.0 million to finance our single-family rental units and the acquisition of 370 acre feet of Lost Creek Water.

Critical Accounting Estimates


Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our discussion
and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on
these consolidated financial statements. The preparation of our consolidated
financial statements requires the application of these accounting principles in
addition to certain estimates and judgments based on current available
information, engineering estimates, historical results, and other assumptions
believed to be reasonable. These estimates, assumptions and judgments are
affected by our application of accounting policies, which are discussed in Note
2 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Estimates are used for,
but not limited to, determining the recoverability of notes receivable, measure
of progress related to our land development activities, and accrued liabilities.
Actual results could differ from these estimates.



Accounting estimates are considered critical if both of the following conditions
are met: (1) the nature of the estimates or assumptions is material because of
the levels of subjectivity and judgment needed to account for matters that are
highly uncertain and susceptible to change and (2) the effect of the estimates
and assumptions is material to the financial statements. The following provides
a summary of the two critical estimates we identified.

Collectability of the Notes Receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB - The notes
receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB are comprised of amounts we incurred and
provided to the Sky Ranch CAB for costs related to the construction of public
improvements which are reimbursable to us, along with related project management
fees and accrued interest associated with those costs. Collectability of the
notes is based on the Sky Ranch CAB generating sufficient cash flows to repay us
prior to certain contractual dates, which is deemed probable based on a mill
levy increase resulting from the remainder of Sky Ranch being in a different
taxing district than Phase 1, higher than projected assessed values of completed
homes, and additional houses from the start of the next development phase at Sky
Ranch. The notes are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the note may not be
recoverable. Management applies judgment to assess whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the notes may not be recoverable
giving rise to the requirement to conduct an impairment test. Circumstances

which could trigger an

  Table of Contents

impairment test include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the
market price of houses which generate tax payments to the Sky Ranch CAB;
significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors including
significant decreases in housing sales or assessments; significant increase in
costs and accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally
expected for the construction of the associated public improvements; and current
period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a
forecast of losses.  Recoverability of these notes is measured by comparing the
carrying value to the future cash flows expected to be generated by the Sky
Ranch CAB which can be used to repay us.  When the carrying value of an asset
exceeds the related undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recorded by
writing down the carrying value of the related asset to its estimated fair
value, which is determined using discounted future cash flows or other measures
of fair value.

Revenue recognition on lot sales under the percentage-of-completion method - We
recognize lot revenue over time as construction progresses for most of our lot
development contracts. This involves an estimation of the total project costs
which are incurred over several months or even years. This requires management
to estimate labor and material costs which could change materially over the life
of that construction project and have a material impact on the timing of revenue
recognition. Under the percentage of completion method, revenues and related
costs from lots sold pursuant to lot development contracts requiring milestone
payments as construction occurs are recognized over the course of the
construction period based on the completion progress of that project phase (i.e.
Phase 2A). In relation to each phase or subphase, revenue is determined by
calculating the ratio of incurred construction costs, including construction
costs related to public improvements subject to reimbursement, to total
estimated costs and applying that ratio to the contracted sales amounts. Current
period amounts are calculated based on the difference between the life-to-date
project totals and the previously recognized amounts. Cost of sales is the cost
incurred related to construction of lots. Any changes in significant judgments
and/or estimates used in determining construction and development revenue could
significantly change the timing or amount of construction and development
revenue recognized. Changes in estimated costs or losses, if any, are recognized
in the period in which they are determined.
