The Form 11-K which is the subject of this 12b-25 extension is being filed in order to report the information required of The Laclede Gas Company - Missouri Gas Energy Wage Deferral Savings Plan (the “Plan”). The administrator of the Plan requires additional time to fully develop financial information necessary to provide complete disclosure in its Form 11-K and to finalize the materials necessary to complete the audit of the Plan. As a result, the registrant was unable to complete the Form 11-K by the prescribed date without unreasonable effort and expense.
