For the nine months ended 3/31/01, revenues rose 53% to $84.9 million. Net income totaled $3.5 million, up from $1.3 million. Revenues reflect colder temperatures in all the Company's operations and higher costs of natural gas which were recovered from customers. Earnings also benefitted from improved operating margins.
