Orlando Amusement Park in Tampa, FL announced on August 1, 2018 that they will have a new attraction for the 2019 season. The new ride is called Space Swirl and is a river boat ride that will replace the existing attraction Lazy River. Orlando will also be renovating the Main Hall for the 2019 season. In order to build the Space Swirl the existing ride (located in the same space) Last River had to be removed. The Space Swirl will be built on the same site as the Lazy River once it is removed. The Main Hall renovation will require extensive interior upgrades to the existing facility.

Cypress & Co., Inc. is an amusement park contracting company and has extensive experience constructing rides/buildings for amusement parks in the United States. On August 1, 2018 Cypress & Co., Inc. and Orlando entered into a written agreement for Cypress & Co. to remove the existing Lazy River ride, build Space Swirl and to renovate the Main Hall at Orlando. The target completion date of all construction is May 15, 2019. Other companies could have also removed the existing ride and renovated the Main Hall, however Orlando decided to hire one company to do all of the work. Orlando has excellent credit.

Payment terms are as follows:

Total price to remove existing Lazy River, construct Space Swirl and renovate the Main Hall: $8,000,000. The Space Swirl has a one year base warranty on all machinery and Orlando also elected to purchase the 5 year extended warranty for $1,000,000 for a total purchase price of $9,000,000. Standalone pricing for this job were as follows: Removal of Lazy River: $2,000,000, Construction of Space Swirl: $6,000,000, renovation of Main Hall: $3,000,000, Extended Warranty$1,000,000.

Orlando has agreed to pay Cypress & Co. 15 months after the completion of Space Swirl and the Main Hall renovation. Interest rates on comparable projects are 4% and equates to $350,000 for the 15 months.

Orlando is offering Cypress & Co. an incentive to ensure completion of the construction of the Space Swirl on a timely basis. Orlando is offering Cypress & Co. the following incentive:

  • Completion of construction of Space Swirl by March 1, 2019 $400,000 Bonus
  • Completion of construction of Space Swirl by April 1, 2019 $200,000 Bonus
  • Completion of construction of Space Swirl by May 1, 2019 $ 75,000 Bonus
  • Completion after May 1, 2019 $ 0 Bonus

Cypress & Co. estimates that based upon their significant experience in the industry they have a 70% likelihood of completing the construction by March 1, 15% likelihood by April 1st, 10% likelihood of completion by May 1st and 5% likelihood the project will be completed on time.

Cypree and Co.s fiscal year is January 1-December 31 and is publicly traded.
