ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS
 
                         INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
                                        



The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Sheridan Energy, Inc.:


     We have audited the accompanying statements of revenues and direct
operating expenses of certain properties acquired from Pioneer Natural Resources
USA, Inc. (the "Pioneer Acquisition") for the years ended December 31, 1996 and
1995. These statements are the responsibility of the management of Sheridan
Energy, Inc. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these statements
based on our audits.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the statements of revenues and direct
operating expenses are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall statement presentation.  We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

     The accompanying statements of revenues and direct operating expenses were
prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (for inclusion in Form 8-K/A of Sheridan
Energy, Inc. as described in Note 1) and are not intended to be a complete
presentation of the Pioneer Acquisition interests' revenues and expenses.

     In our opinion, the statements of revenues and direct operating expenses
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and
direct operating expenses of the Pioneer Acquisition for the years ended
December 31, 1996 and 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

   Notes to the Statements of Revenues and Direct Operating Expenses of certain
properties acquired from Pioneer Natural Resources USA, Inc.


Note 1. Basis of Presentation

   On December 15, 1997, Sheridan Energy, Inc. (the "Company") acquired from
Pioneer Natural Resources USA, Inc. ("Pioneer") certain oil and gas properties
(the "Pioneer Acquisition") for approximately $46.8 million. The accompanying
statements of revenues and direct operating expenses for the Pioneer Acquisition
do not include general and administrative expenses, interest income or expense,
a provision for depreciation, depletion and amortization, or any provision for
income taxes since historical expenses of this nature incurred by Pioneer are
not necessarily indicative of the costs to be incurred by the Company.

   Historical financial information reflecting financial position, results of
operations, and cash flows of the Pioneer Acquisition, are not presented because
the purchase price was assigned to the oil and gas property interests acquired.
Other assets acquired and liabilities assumed were not material. Accordingly,
the historical statements of revenues and direct operating expenses of the
Pioneer Acquisition are presented in lieu of the financial statements required
under Item 3-10(b) of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-B.

   Revenues in the accompanying statements of revenues and direct operating
expenses are recognized on the sales method. Under this method, revenues are
recognized based on actual volumes of oil and gas sold to purchasers. Direct
operating expenses are recognized on the accrual method.

Interim Statements of Revenues and Direct Operating Expenses

   The interim financial information for the nine months ended September 30,
1997 and 1996, is unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, the interim
statements of revenues and direct expenses include all the necessary adjustments
to fairly present the results of the interim period and all such adjustments are
of a normal recurring nature. The interim statements of revenues and direct
operating expenses should be read in conjunction with the audited statements of
revenues and direct operating expenses for the years ended December 31, 1996 and
1995.

        (Unaudited)

Estimated Quantities of Proved Oil and Gas Reserves

   The following schedule presents estimates of proved oil and natural gas
reserves attributable to the Pioneer Acquisition, all of which are located in
the United States. Proved reserves are estimated quantities of oil and natural
gas which geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty
to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic
and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves are those which are expected
to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating
methods. Reserves are stated in thousands of barrels ("Mbbl") of oil and
condensate and millions of cubic feet ("Mmcf") of natural gas.

   Estimating economically recoverable crude oil and natural gas reserves and
the future net revenues therefrom is not an exact science and is based upon a
number of variable factors, such as historical production of the subject
properties as compared with similar producing properties, and assumptions such
as the effects of regulation by governmental agencies, future taxes, and
development and other costs, all of which may vary considerably from actual
results. All such estimates are to some degree speculative, and classifications
of reserves are only attempts to define the degree of speculation involved. For
these reasons, estimates of economically recoverable reserves of crude oil and
natural gas attributable to any particular group of properties, the
classification and risk of recovering such reserves, and estimates of the future
net revenues expected therefrom, prepared by different engineers or by the same
engineers at different times, may vary substantially.

   Proved oil and natural gas reserves are the estimated quantities of crude oil
and natural gas which geological and engineering data demonstrate with
reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs
under existing economic and operating conditions. Estimates with respect to
proved undeveloped and proved developed non-producing reserves that may be
developed and produced in the future are based upon volumetric calculations or
upon analogy to similar types of reservoirs. Later studies of the same
reservoirs based upon production history may result in variations, which may be
substantial. The actual production, revenues, severance and excise taxes,
development costs, and operating expenditures with respect to the Pioneer
Acquisition's reserves as reflected herein may vary from estimates, and such
variances may be material.



                                                                     (Continued)

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows of Proved Oil and
Gas Reserves

   The following schedules present the standardized measure of estimated
discounted future net cash flows and changes therein attributable to the
Pioneer Acquisition's proved oil and gas reserves ("Standardized Measure"), in
accordance with the standards established by the Financial Accounting Standards
Board through its Statement No. 69. The estimates of future cash flows and
future production and development costs are based on year end sales prices for
oil and gas, estimated future production of proved reserves, and estimated
future production and development costs of proved reserves, based on current
costs and economic conditions. The estimated future net cash flows are then
discounted at a rate of 10%.



                                                                     (Continued)

   Notes to the Statements of Revenues and Direct Operating Expenses of certain
properties acquired from Pioneer Natural Resources USA, Inc.


   Since the Standardized Measure was prepared using the prevailing economic
conditions existing at each applicable year end, it is emphasized that such
conditions continually change, as evidenced by the fluctuations in oil and
natural gas prices during recent years. Weighted average year end oil and
natural gas prices utilized in computing the Standardized Measure for 1996 were
$22.88 and $3.49, respectively, and for 1995 were $16.93 and $2.06,
respectively. Accordingly, such information should not serve as a basis in
making any judgment on the potential value of the Pioneer Acquisition's
recoverable reserves, or in estimating future results of operations.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1.  Basis of Presentation

     The following unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements
are presented to reflect the estimated impact on the historical consolidated
financial statements of Sheridan Energy, Inc. (the "Company"), assuming the
acquisition of certain properties of Pioneer Natural Resources USA, Inc. (the
"Pioneer Acquisition") and related financing transactions of issuance of the
Company's redeemable senior preferred stock ("New Preferred Stock") for $10
million due December 15, 2002 which bears a cash divident rate of 12% or, at the
Company's election, paid-in-kind dividend rate of 13.5%, and issuance of
1,600,000 shares of common stock for $10,000,000, less related expenses, to
Enron Capital & Trade Resources, Corp. ("Enron"), and the addition of
$28,013,000 of debt pursuant to the First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
with Bank One, Texas N.A. (the "Credit Agreement") as if such transactions had
taken place as of January 1, 1996 for the unaudited Pro Forma Condensed
Statement of Operations and as of September 30, 1997 for the unaudited Pro Forma
Condensed Balance Sheet.

     The unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements give effect only to
the adjustments set forth in the accompanying notes to unaudited pro forma
condensed financial statements. Unaudited pro forma information is not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations or financial position which
would have occurred had the Pioneer Acquisition and related financing
transactions been consummated on the dates indicated, nor is it necessarily
indicative of the Company's future results of operations or financial position.

Merger

     The Pro Forma Condensed Balance Sheet as of September 30, 1997 and Pro
Forma Condensed Statement of Operations for the nine months ended September 30,
1997 reflect, in the historic results, the impact from the merger (the
"Merger"), effective June 12, 1997 (the "Effective Date"), of the Company with
its former parent, TGX Corporation ("TGX"), and the issuance of 4,394,285 shares
of Company common stock in exchange for all of TGX's senior preferred shares
outstanding and the cancellation of TGX's previously issued preferred stock and
common stock and related dividends and accretion expense. The December 31, 1996
weighted average shares and per share data have been restated to reflect
inssuance of the Company's common stock on a retroactive basis. All preferred
stock dividends and accretion were eliminated as of the Effective Date of the
Merger; however, all pre-Effective Date dividends and accretion charges are
reflected in the historical earnings results applicable to common stocks.

     Merger expenses, consisting primarily of professional fees, proxy
preparation, printing and solicitation costs and stock issuance costs, were
charged to expense as incurred during 1996 and 1997.  Included in general and
administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and the
year ended December 31, 1996 are Merger expenses of $181,000 and $440,000,
respectively. No adjustments to the Pro Forma Statement of Operations have been
made regarding these expenses.
 
     The following table summarizes certain pro forma condensed consolidated
results of operations data as if the Merger had been effective as of January 1,
1996 (in thousands, except per share data):

Note 3.    Supplemental Oil and Gas Reserve Information

     The following table presents estimates of proved oil and gas reserves
prepared by the Company as of January 1, 1997, all of which are located in the
United States.  Reserves were estimated in accordance with guidelines
established by the Securities and Exchange Commission and FASB which require
that reserve estimates be prepared under existing economic and operating
conditions with no provision for price and cost escalations, except  by
contractual arrangements. The Company has presented the pro forma reserve
estimates utilizing an oil price of $23.58 per barrel and a gas price of $3.37
per Mcf as of January 1, 1997.  The pro forma information assumes that the
Pioneer Acquisition took place on January 1, 1996.  Proved reserves are
estimated quantities of oil and natural gas which geological and engineering
data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years
from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions.  Proved
developed reserves are those which are expected to be recovered through existing
wells with existing equipment and operating methods. Reserves are stated in
thousands of barrels ("MBbl") of oil and condensate and millions of cubic feet
("MMcf") of natural gas.

     Oil and gas reserve quantity estimates are subject to numerous
uncertainties inherent in the estimation of quantities of proved reserves and in
the projection of future rates of production and the timing of development
expenditures.  The accuracy of such estimates is a function of the quality of
available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment.
Results of subsequent drilling, testing, and production may cause either upward
or downward revision of previous estimates.  Further, the volumes considered to
be commercially recoverable fluctuate with changes in prices and operating
costs.  The Company emphasizes that reserve estimates are inherently imprecise
and that estimates of new discoveries are more imprecise that those of currently
producing oil and gas properties. Accordingly, these estimates are expected to
change as additional information becomes available in the future.

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows of Proved Oil and Gas
Reserves

     The following schedules present the standardized measure of estimated
discounted future net cash flows and changes therein attributable to the
Company's proved oil and gas reserves as of January 1, 1997 ("Standardized
Measure"), in accordance with the standards established by the Financial
Accounting Standards Board through it's Statement No. 69. The estimates of
future cash flows and future production and development costs are based on year
end sales prices for oil and gas, estimated future production of proved
reserves, and estimated future production and development costs of proved
reserves, based on current costs and economic conditions, less estimated future
income tax expense. The estimated future net cash flows are then discounted at a
rate of 10%.
