Consolidated Water Co. Ltd. (the “Company”, or "CWCO") designs, builds, operates, and in some cases
finances seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination plants and water distribution systems in several
Caribbean countries, where the supply of drinking water is scarce and the use of SWRO is economically
feasible. The Company was established in 1973 as a private water utility in Grand Cayman, the largest
island in the Cayman Islands group, and obtained its first public utility license in the Cayman Islands
in 1979. The Company is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select stock market under the symbol "CWCO".
