Why Invest In CPK?
With many opportunities for long-term growth, the Company is focused on generating increased shareholder value well into the future. When making an investment decision, investors consider past performance, present initiatives and potential future opportunities for growth. Chesapeake Utilities Corporation doubled in size twice in the 10 years since the 2009 acquisition of Florida Public Utilities (FPU). Our projections in 2019 indicated that we could double again by the end of 2023; and we did. At our current rate, there is a distinct possibility of repeating that level of growth over the next several years, all while continuing to prioritize safety, business transformation, employee engagement and environmental stewardship. Chesapeake Utilities Corporation’s strong performance demonstrates our employees’ continuous collaboration and relentless focus to deliver essential services with safety at the forefront every day.
As a trusted and responsible energy provider, Chesapeake Utilities is built upon a legacy of caring and is committed to making positive contributions to the economic prosperity and sustainability of our communities. Our employees collaborate across our businesses to understand customers’ challenges, identify innovative solutions and pursue growth opportunities within our existing businesses as well as in new markets. Within this process, we adhere to a disciplined business approach as we expand our energy services and extend our geographic footprint, providing customers with multiple energy solutions.
