Star Group, L.P. (SGU) Reports Q2 EPS of $1.15, Revenues Beat

Star Group, L.P. (NYSE: SGU) reported Q2 EPS of $1.15, versus $0.81 reported last year. Revenue for the quarter came in at $699.58 million versus the consensus estimate of $229.62 million.

“With a new management team now in place, I am pleased to reaffirm our commitment to being the most reputable firm in the home energy services space and providing long-term returns to our shareholders,” said Jeffrey M. Woosnam, Star Group’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Rich Ambury, Jeff Hammond, Joe McDonald and I – along with our talented team here at Star – are ready to take the Company to the next level in terms of growth, quality service, and market presence. That said, the second quarter was negatively impacted by greater-than-expected net customer attrition due to our decision not to renew certain low-margin accounts, credit issues and, lastly, the price of home heating oil and propane. We are dedicated to limiting the loss of customers as much as possible.

“In the coming months, we will be evaluating all of Star’s operations to determine our best path forward and align the organization with core strategic objectives. While accomplishing a great deal over the past decade, we need to focus on improved business execution so that we remain the premier energy services provider we are today – strengthening customer satisfaction, reducing attrition, streamlining our operations where appropriate, and utilizing technology to effectively compete. We believe these actions will position Star to continue as a major force in the industry for years to come.”
