THE YORK WATER COMPANY
On April 16, 2026, The York Water Company (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing the pricing of its public offering of shares of the
Company’s common stock, no par value (the “Offering”). A copy of such press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Neither the disclosures in this Current Report on Form 8-K nor the exhibits hereto shall constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to
buy the securities described herein and therein, nor shall there be any sale of such securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities
laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information
Certain statements contained in this Form 8-K and the exhibits hereto constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933. Words such as “may,” “should,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These
forward-looking statements include certain information relating to the Company’s business strategy and future prospects; including, but not limited to:

• strategic initiatives;
• availability of water supply;
• water usage by customers; and
• the ability to pay dividends on our common stock and the rate of those

These forward-looking statements reflect what the Company currently anticipates will happen. What actually happens could differ materially from what it currently
anticipates and you should not place undue reliance upon such statements, which are based only on information currently available to the Company and speak only as of the date hereof. The Company does not intend to make a public announcement when
forward-looking statements are no longer accurate, whether as a result of new information, what actually happens in the future or for any other reason. Important matters that may affect what will actually happen include, but are not limited to:
• changes in weather or climate, including drought conditions or extended
periods of heavy precipitation;
• natural disasters, including pandemics and the effectiveness of the
Company’s response plans;
• levels of rate relief granted;

Company’s service territory;

increases in population;
• changes in government policies or regulations, including the tax code,
and the impact of government shutdowns;

conservation efforts which may impact the demand of customers for water;
• changes in economic and business conditions, including interest rates;
• loss of customers;
• changes in, or unanticipated, capital requirements, including requirements
relating to compliance with increasing environmental and safety regulations;
