Article content
Swiss Water is undertaking the NCIB because its management believes that from time to time, the market price of its Common Shares may not reflect the underlying value of Swiss Water’s business and future prospects. Management believes that, in such circumstances, purchasing Common Shares for cancellation would be in the best interests of shareholders and represents an appropriate use of its capital.

Management believes it has sufficient cash flow and financial resources to fund the purchases under the NCIB without impairing its ability to pursue growth opportunities, meet its financial obligations, or otherwise operate in the ordinary course. Accordingly, management considers the bid to be a prudent and efficient use of capital.
Article content
Any purchases made under the NCIB will be conducted through the facilities of the TSX and/or alternative Canadian trading systems at prevailing market prices and in accordance with applicable securities laws and TSX requirements.
Article content
Although the Company presently intends to purchase Common Shares under its NCIB, there can be no assurances that any such purchases will be completed. Swiss Water has not repurchased any of its Common Shares during the twelve months preceding the date hereof.
