*Byany measure,
it’s been a year of incredible growth. But we believe the most important number,
by far, is the one that did not change—our five core values of customer focus,
employee focus, enterprise thinking, value creation, and honesty and integrity.
In fact, we believe our values made such growth possible. And that’s why,
in this year’s summary annual report, we illustrate how each of these values
shines in our employees and in our way of doing business. Since these core
values are a constant, they help us—even in times of incredible growth and
change—to maintain our focus and stability. After all, a company must fully
understand where it comes from in order to know where it is going.
The acquisition of TXU Gas was measured carefully against each of these
core values. That’s because, while growth is important, it’s counterproductive
if it’s haphazard or unmanaged. In our case, TXU Gas was not only a good fit,
but also an evolution—one that increases our resources and better prepares us
for continued growth and strength.
Atmos Energy embraces growth, knowing that it helps us better serve our
customers and our investors in the coming years. But rest assured, we never
will undertake growth just for the sake of achieving bigger numbers.
