Operating income for the full year was $11.8 million, up 317 percent from the $2.8 million in the previous year.
"We had a very successful year achieving all of our stated drilling and completion goals within the Wattenberg," said Ed Holloway, Synergy Resources CEO. "Despite the difficult conditions for part of the year with high line pressure in the Wattenberg and modest commodity price pressure in the fourth quarter, neither within our control, we remain well positioned with our drilling program to grow production in fiscal 2013. We have the capital, access to equipment and talented management to ensure continued growth."
