YORK WATER COMPANY REPORTS 2^nd QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS EARNINGS

AND

ANNOUNCES THE ACQUISITION OF THE EAST PROSPECT (YORK COUNTY) WASTEWATER SYSTEM

York, Pennsylvania, August 8, 2013:  The York Water Company's (NASDAQ:YORW) President, Jeffrey R. Hines, announced today the Company's financial results for the second quarter and the first six months of 2013.

President Hines reported that second quarter operating revenues of $10,737,000 increased $385,000 and net income of $2,342,000 increased $138,000 compared to the second quarter of 2012.  Earnings per share of $0.18 for the three-month period increased $0.01 compared to the same period last year.

President Hines also reported that the first six months operating revenues of $20,806,000 increased $785,000, and net income of $4,481,000 increased $336,000 compared to the first six months of 2012.  Higher revenues were due to an increase in the Distribution System Improvement Charge (DSIC), growth in the customer base, mainly through acquisitions and the addition of wastewater revenues.  The DSIC is a surcharge allowed by the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission for the replacement of aging infrastructure.  The higher revenues were partially offset by higher income taxes and depreciation expense.  Earnings per share of $0.35 for the six-month period increased $0.03 compared to the same period last year.

During the first six months of 2013, the Company invested $4.1 million in capital projects for routine items as well as various replacements of infrastructure.  The Company estimates it will invest an additional $7.2 million in 2013, excluding acquisitions, for expansion and improvements to its pipes, filtration system, facilities, and dams to ensure a safe, adequate, and reliable supply of drinking water and to maintain proper handling and disposal of wastewater for the Company's growing customer base.

On June 20, 2013, the Company signed an agreement to purchase the wastewater assets of the East Prospect Borough Authority in York County, Pennsylvania.  Closing of the acquisition is contingent upon receiving approval from all required regulatory authorities.  Closing is expected in the fourth quarter of 2013 at which time the Company will add approximately 400 wastewater customers.
