Business: Artesian Resources Corporation operates as the holding company of eight wholly owned subsidiaries offering water, wastewater and engineering services. Artesian Water Company, the principal subsidiary, is the oldest and largest investor-owned public water utility on the Delmarva Peninsula and has been providing water service in the state of Delaware since 1905. Although the Delaware water business remains the Company's largest business line, accounting for 90% of revenues, Artesian has expanded their capabilities and service area by providing wastewater service in Delaware and provide water and wastewater service in Cecil County, Maryland and Pennsylvania. In June 2009, Artesian joined the broad-market Russell 3000 Index and the small-market Russell 2000 Index as a result of the annual reconstitution of Russell’s U.S. indexes.
