Swift Custom UITableViewCell not displaying data

I am new to Swift, and iOS development in general. I am attempting to create a custom UITableViewCell. I have created the cell in my main storyboard on top of a UITableView that is inside a UIViewController. When I loaded one of the default cells, I was able to populate it with data. However, now that I am using a custom cell, I cannot get any data to appear in the table. I have gone through all kinds of tutorials and questions posted on the internet, but I can't figure out why it is not working. Any help would be appreciated.

Here is my code for the UIViewController that the tableview resides in.

import UIKit

class FirstViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource {

    @IBOutlet weak var tblView: UITableView!

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
        //self.tblView.registerClass(UITableViewCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier : "Cell")
        self.tblView.registerClass(CustomTableViewCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier : "Cell")
        tblView!.delegate = self
        tblView!.dataSource = self

    }


    override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
        super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
        // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
    }



    func tableView(tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
        return dataMgr.data.count
    }


    func tableView(tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {

        let cell : CustomTableViewCell = self.tblView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("Cell", forIndexPath : indexPath) as! CustomTableViewCell

        var values = dataMgr.data[indexPath.row]
        cell.newTotalLabel?.text = "\(values.newTotal)"
        cell.winLoseValueLabel?.text = "\(values.newTotal - values.currentTotal)"
        cell.dateLabel?.text = "5/17/2015"


        return cell
    }
}

I have stepped through the program where it is assigning values to the cell variables. The variable 'values' is being populated with data, but when stepping over the assignment lines to the cell variables, I found that they are never assigned. They all remain nil.

When you make a custom cell in the storyboard, don't register the class (or anything else). Just be sure to give the cell the same identifier in the storyboard that you pass to dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:forIndexPath:.
