Highlight of Business Operations:
Retail propane revenues decreased $21.0 million during the 2011 three-month period reflecting an $83.6 million decrease as a result of the lower retail volumes sold partially offset by a $62.6 million increase as a result of higher average retail propane selling prices due in large part to higher commodity costs. Wholesale propane revenues increased $4.5 million principally reflecting a $5.9 million increase resulting from higher year-over-year wholesale selling prices partially offset by a $1.4 million decrease on lower volumes sold.

Total revenues from fee income and other ancillary sales and services were virtually unchanged from the prior-year period.
