ROANOKE, Va. (February 4, 2014)—RGC Resources, Inc. (NASDAQ: RGCO) announced consolidated Company earnings of $1,722,788 or $0.37 per average share outstanding for the quarter ended December 31, 2013.

From time to time, the Company may publish forward-looking statements relating to such matters as anticipated financial performance, business prospects, technological developments, new products, research and development activities and similar matters.

Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2013 are not indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2014 as quarterly earnings are affected by the highly seasonal nature of the business and weather conditions generally result in greater earnings during the winter months.
