"Our teams delivered a solid quarter by managing costs and optimizing operational efficiencies. Our focus on expense management was evident in the third quarter and these activities provide a foundation for significant, long-term efficiency gains. We continue to identify opportunities to grow and deliver value and expect to roll out various [REMOVIDO]s during our fiscal fourth quarter that will enable us to finish the year strong and benefit future performance," said John L. Walsh, president and chief executive officer of UGI Corporation.

These strategic investments align with our long-term strategy and position us well to deliver on our commitments to shareholders."
