                        WILSHIRE OIL COMPANY OF TEXAS
                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                          JUNE 30, 1994 (Unaudited)



1.   FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
     --------------------

     The condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by
     the Registrant, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of
     the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
     disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
     accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
     condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the
     Registrant believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
     information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these
     condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
     statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's latest annual
     report on Form 10-K This condensed financial information reflects, in the
     opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the
     results for the interim periods. The results of operations for such
     interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the
     full year.

2.   GAIN ON SALES OF MARKETABLE SECURITIES
     --------------------------------------

     The Company realized gains from the sales of shares of Jacobs Engineering
     Group, Inc. of $3,811,000 and $ 3,096,000 for the six months ended June
     30, 1994 and 1993, respectively, and $1,709,000 and $1,829,000 for the
     three months ended June 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively .

3.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
     -----------------------------

     Federal income tax returns of the Company and its subsidiaries for the
     years 1975 through 1983 are under review by the Internal Revenue Service.
     The Company believes that final settlement of its Federal tax liability
     for those years will not have a significant effect on its consolidated
     financial position.

     The Company is a defendant in a lawsuit by a co-owner on one of its oil
     and gas properties. The lawsuit seeks an unspecified amount of royalties
     and interest for prior year production at the property. While the
     ultimate outcome of this litigation cannot be predicted at this time,
     management believes that this matter will not have a material adverse
     effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or its results of
     operations.

                   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations
- - ---------------------

     Net income for the six months ended June 30 increased from $2,426,000 in
1993 to $2,569,000 in 1994. Net income for the quarter ended June 30 increased
from $1,202,000 in 1993 to $1,263,000 in 1994.

     Oil and gas revenues decreased by $395,000 in the first half of 1994 as
compared to 1993 due to sharp declines in crude oil prices. Consolidated
revenues were lower in 1994 than in 1993 as the 1993 amounts included a
non-recurring gas settlement of $450,000.

     Real estate revenues increased from $2,976,000 in the first half of 1993
to $3,785,000 in 1994. This increase was principally attributable to the
operations of the income producing real estate properties acquired June 30,
1993 and March 31, 1994 as well as generally higher rents and occupancy.

     Oil and gas production expense increased in the first half of 1994 over
1993 principally as a result of new wells completed in the second half of
1993.

     Real estate operating expenses increased in the first half of 1994 over
1993 principally due to the newly acquired properties in the second half of
1993 and the first half of 1994.

     Depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense decreased in the first
half of 1994 compared with 1993 principally as a result of the increase in the
estimated value of the Company's oil and gas reserves. This increase in
reserves is due to the Company's successful horizontal oil drilling program.

     The gain on sales of marketable securities is derived from sales of
shares of Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc.

     Interest expense increased in the first half of 1994 over 1993
principally due to the addition of the new real estate properties in the second
half of 1993 and the first half of 1994.

     The provision for income taxes includes Federal and Canadian taxes.
Differences between the effective tax rate and the statutory income tax rates
are due to foreign resource tax credits in Canada and the dividend exclusion
in the United States.


Accounting for Income Taxes
- - ---------------------------

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109- "Accounting for
Income Taxes" became effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter
of 1993. SFAS 109 requires, among other things, an asset and liability
approach to accounting for income taxes. SFAS 109 did not have a material
impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

                                      6

Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities
- - ----------------------------------------------------------------

     On December 31, 1993 the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and
Equity Securities" (SFAS 115). The investments of the Company are principally
equity securities, held for indefinite periods of time. These securities are
carried at fair value and the difference between cost and fair value is
charged/credited directly to shareholders' equity net of income taxes. As of
June 30, 1994, the gross unrealized gain on marketable securities was
$22.8 million. This amount, net of related deferred income taxes of $10.2
million, is included as a credit to shareholders' equity in the Company's June
30, 1994 consolidated balance sheet.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- - -------------------------------

     At June 30, 1994 the Company had approximately $9.9 million in marketable
securities at cost, with a market value of approximately $33 million. The
current ratio at June 30, 1994 was 6.6 to 1 on a market basis, which management
considers adequate for the Company's current business. The Company's working
capital was approximately $33 million at June 30, 1994.

     The Company anticipates that cash provided by operating activities,
principally from oil and gas sales as well as investing activities, will be
sufficient to meet its capital requirements to acquire oil and gas properties
and to drill and evaluate these and other oil and gas properties presently
held by the Company. The level of oil and gas capital expenditures will vary
in future periods depending on market conditions, including the price of oil
and the demand for natural gas, and other related factors. As the Company has
no material long-term commitments with respect to its oil and gas capital
expenditure plans, the Company has a significant degree of flexibility to
adjust the level of its expenditures as circumstances warrant.

     The Company plans to actively continue its exploration and production
activities as well as search for the acquisition of oil and gas producing
properties and of companies with desirable oil and gas producing properties.
There can be no assurance that the Company will in fact locate any such
acquisitions.

     On March 31, 1994 the Company acquired various real estate properties at
an aggregate purchase price of $10,240,000 from The Trust Company of New
Jersey, which also provided the long-term financing of $8,704,000.

     The Company will explore other real estate acquisitions as they arise.
The timing of any such acquisition will depend on, among other things,
economic conditions and the favorable evaluation of specific opportunities
presented to the Company. Accordingly, while the Company anticipates that it
will actively explore real estate acquisition opportunities, no assurance can
be given that any such acquisition will occur.

<PAGE>


     Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was $1,341,000 and
$(327,000) in the first six months of 1994 and 1993, respectively. The
increase in 1994 was primarily due to the payment in 1993 of Canadian tax
liabilities settled in 1992.

     Net cash used in investing activities was $13,405,000 and $503,000 in the
first six months of 1994 and 1993, respectively. The Company acquired $10.2
million of real estate properties during the first half of 1994 and $3.8
million during the first half of 1993. Additionally, the Company acquired
approximately $5.6 million of securities in 1994.

     Net cash provided by financing activities was $11,646,000 and $2,811,000
in the first half of 1994 and 1993, respectively. The variation principally
relates to the issuance of long-term debt in connection with purchases of real
estate properties during 1993 and 1994.

     During the first half of 1994 the Company renegotiated all of its secured
bank loans (other than mortgage notes). Among other things, more favorable
principal amortization was obtained and the maturity dates of these loans were
extended.

     The Company believes it has adequate capital resources to fund operations
for the foreseeable future.
