I was a bit concerned when ST Pipeline disclosed their relatively small backlog at December 31, 2007. However, my concerns were substantially alleviated when ST Pipeline reported their first results for 2008: $14.5 million in revenue with operating earnings of $2.8 million vs. 2007 results of $17.9 million in revenue and operating earnings of $4.1 million.

I was even more heartened by this disclosure on page 108 of he proxy:

Backlog/New Business

A company’s backlog represents orders which have not yet been processed. At December 31, 2007, ST Pipeline had a backlog of work to be completed on contracts of $5.4 million. At December 31, 2006, ST Pipeline had a backlog of work on contracts of $57.3 million. Due to the timing of ST Pipeline’s construction contracts and the long-term nature of some of our projects, portions of our backlog may not be completed in the current fiscal year. At March 31, 2008, ST Pipeline had a backlog of $14.3 million. Between April 1, 2008 and May 6, 2008, ST Pipeline entered into additional contracts with estimate revenues of approximately $18.5 million.
