Early Cash Flow And Return of Capital

Eastern Light’s role as a contract distiller allows the venture to generate distributions for investors very early in its life cycle, currently forecast to commence in 2027.

Eastern Light is projected to have fully returned invested capital in 2030, exclusively through distributions.

Asset-Backed Downside Protection

The facility and underlying real estate have appraised for approximately $3.8M more than the projected development cost.

Even in a distressed scenario, a liquidation of the constructed plant, property, and equipment would position Eastern Light to recoup the majority, if not all, of invested capital.

Eastern Light projects to depreciate $45M in 2026 and ~$20M annually for each of the following 5 years.
