ROANOKE, Va., Nov 24, 2008 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX) -- RGCO | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- RGC Resources, Inc. (Nasdaq:RGCO) announced consolidated Company earnings of $4,221,134 or $1.91 per average diluted share outstanding for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008. This compares to consolidated earnings of $3,806,209 or $1.75 per average diluted share outstanding for the year ended September 30, 2007, and reflects an earnings per share increase of 9 percent. President, Chairman and CEO John Williamson attributed the improvement in earnings to improvement in gross margins and expense control.

Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was ($78,171) or ($0.04) per average diluted share outstanding compared to a loss of ($248,944) or ($0.12) per average share outstanding for the quarter ended September 30, 2007. The majority of the Company's sales occur in the winter months and as a result, the Company's third and fourth quarters normally reflect earnings losses. Williamson attributed the lower loss in the fourth quarter of this year primarily to improved gross margins.
