Dover, Delaware — Chesapeake Utilities Corporation (NYSE: CPK) today reported second quarter financial results. The Company’s net income for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was $5.1 million, or $0.53 per share. This represents an increase of $778,000, or $0.08 per share, over the same quarter in 2013.
