To our shareholders:
Anterix entered into a spectrum license sale agreement to provide CPS Energy with a 900 MHz broadband license covering Bexar County, Texas, (the “Agreement”) for a total payment of $13 million, empowering CPS Energy to deploy a utility private wireless broadband network that will strengthen its grid operations, enhance reliability, and accelerate innovation at scale.
Based in San Antonio, CPS Energy is the nation’s largest community-owned provider of electricity and natural gas, serving more than 970,000 electricity customers and more than 390,000 natural gas customers. With this agreement, eight utilities now leverage Anterix’s 900 MHz spectrum across 15 states, underscoring a growing trend toward utility-owned private LTE networks built to deliver consistent, scalable, and measurable operational outcomes. This Agreement also represents a key milestone for the AnterixAcceleratorTM funding program, with CPS Energy serving as the first utility customer to sign an agreement under the initiative, activating Anterix’s commitment to accelerate private wireless broadband deployments for the nation’s utilities.
Key components of the Agreement include:
•Assignment of 6 MHz of broadband spectrum, 936.5 - 939.5 MHz paired with 897.5 - 900.5 MHz, in Bexar County, the fourth-most populous county in Texas, following FCC issuance of a broadband license transferable from Anterix to CPS Energy
•Delivery of the broadband spectrum to CPS Energy by January 31, 2027.
•Total contract price of $13 million, with the first payment due by January 31, 2026, and final payment due by January 31, 2027. Final payment to Anterix is contingent on the broadband license being granted by the FCC and the broadband spectrum being assigned to CPS Energy.
•A commitment by the Parties to negotiate a Master Services Agreement covering potential procurement of additional 900 MHz private wireless broadband products and services from Anterix.
In addition:
•Pricing of the Agreement reflects the dollar-for-dollar match discount offered under the AnterixAccelerator funding initiative, designed to accelerate 900 MHz private wireless broadband deployments for the nation’s utilities.
•As part of the Agreement, Anterix and CPS Energy intend to collaborate to accelerate utility industry momentum for 900 MHz private wireless networks and the Anterix Active Ecosystem. The Agreement also contemplates that the parties will endeavor to collaborate with other utility 900 MHz private wireless broadband networks throughout Texas.
•The Agreement is subject to customary contractual provisions regarding remedies, including refund of amounts paid by CPS Energy for failure to deliver the 900 MHz license, and termination rights if a party fails to perform its contractual obligations. The Agreement has been approved by the CPS Energy Board of Trustees and the Anterix Boards of Directors.
