Description: Atmos Energy Corporation, founded in 1906 and headquartered in Dallas, Texas, is engaged in the regulated natural gas distribution, transmission and storage businesses as well as other non-regulated natural gas businesses throughout the South and Southwest. The company is a result of a spin-off of Pioneer in 1983, once called Energas, later changing its name to Atmos Energy in 1988. Through a number of acquisitions including the most recent in 2004 being TXU's gas distribution and pipeline operations, the company is now the largest natural gas only distribution company. Atmos Energy has four business segments including natural gas distribution, regulated transmission and storage, natural gas marketing, and pipeline storage and other. The natural gas distribution segment includes regulated natural gas distribution and its related sales operations and is broken down into six regulated divisions covering 12 states. The regulated transmission and storage segment includes regulated pipeline and storage operations from the company's Atmos Pipeline-Texas Division. The natural gas marketing segment includes a variety of non-regulated natural gas management services.
