The Company's audited revenues for the year ended December 31, 2013 represented full year fiscal results from the Company's operating subsidiaries (doing business as AES Water Solutions, South Texas Power and AES Safety Solutions) and partial-year results for the Company's AquaTex subsidiary acquired in November 2013. Pro forma 2013 revenues would have been approximately $16.7 million if the Company's acquisition of AquaTex occurred on January 1, 2013.
Each of the Company's Water, Power and Safety divisions experienced operational growth and increased revenues during 2013, as discussed below.
The Company's Water division experienced significant growth in 2013 due to increased customer base, expanded territories of operational activities and additional services offered. The November 2013 AquaTex acquisition also provided new customers and geographic expansion in South Texas' Eagle Ford Shale and the Eaglebine formation in East Texas. Additional service offerings including waste water evaporation services and flow back/well testing services which made a positive impact on the Water division's revenue growth. As previously announced, the strategic alliances with CRS Repossessing and Resource West also contributed to the Water division's 2013 growth. By partnering for these additional products and services for our Water division, the Company avoided most of the costly product development cycles and issues customarily found with new product inventions.
The Company's Safety division continued its growth in 2013 via establishing new safety engineering service sites in Ohio and West Virginia, adding customers in Texas for safety inspection as well as safety classroom training and certification programs offered. AES Safety Services also expanded its service offering to include a rapid spill response program for site clean-up and remediation after environmental occurrences.
During 2013, the Company's Power division, operating as South Texas Power (STP), augmented its fleet of oilfield mobile generator sets, acquired several new oilfield customers and added additional key employees, all of which contributed to its growth and facilitated expansion into other parts of Texas. Recently STP has developed a new operating base in the Permian basin. The Power division anticipates entering the Oklahoma market in fiscal 2014 leveraging its existing customer base and reputation in the Texas market.
Matthew Flemming, CEO of HII Technologies, stated, "While maintaining our focus in the Water, Safety and Power market segments we have expanded our services within these segments which is a business strategy we believe will continue to position us for growth. Currently, the markets we operate in have been very active for energy services and we are pleased with the organic growth that occurred in 2013." Mr. Flemming continued, "The successful integration of the AquaTex acquisition from November 2013 and the Company's continued growth and demonstrated ability to bring new technologies to our customers, is a tribute to the outstanding people who work at our Company. We are thankful for our hard working employees, and we are excited to accelerate our plans in 2014 for our stockholders."
As reported in the Company's 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K audited results, Current Assets increased by approximately $2.1 million to approximately $5.0 million from the previous quarter ended September 30, 2013. The Company's Stockholder's Equity (Total Assets minus Total Liabilities) increased by approximately $69,000 to approximately $886,000, sequentially from the previous quarter ended September 30, 2013. These increases were directly attributable to the Company's acquisition of AquaTex on November 12, 2013 and our operational performance in the fiscal year 2013.
