DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE: None
Item 1. Business
Wyoming Oil & Minerals, Inc. (the Company), a Wyoming Corporation, was
incorporated on February 23, 1973 as Wyoming Coal Corporation. It was organized
primarily to hold and develop state and fee coal leases and secondarily to
acquire oil and gas properties and explore for, develop and produce oil and gas.
As the Company evolved, its emphasis shifted from holding and developing the
coal leases to acquiring oil and gas leases and production. Some of the
Company's coal leases have been explored and found not to contain coal deposits
in commercial quantities and been dropped. As of the date of this report,
the Company's coal properties have all been sold or dropped. Since oil and gas
sales are now the Company's primary revenue source, its name was changed to
Wyoming Oil & Minerals, Inc. at a shareholders meeting held August 10, 1981 to
more accurately reflect the Company's business.
Generally, the economic success of the Company depends on its ability to
locate and purchase oil and gas properties or purchase or lease valuable oil and
gas prospects or mineral deposits. The Company must further operate, sell or
lease these deposits or prospects to others at a profit or develop the
properties itself or in conjunction with others.
To accomplish these goals, the Company will encounter competition from
major oil and mining companies and other independent operators attempting to
acquire prospective oil and gas leases, coal leases, production and other
mineral interest. These sources of competition may be both large and small
energy oriented companies operation in the states in which the Company does
business or may do business in the future. Some of these competitors are major
oil and gas and coal companies with substantial reserves and earnings records.
Others are small independents with varying degrees of stability. Some not only
produce oil and gas, but refine and market petroleum products. Some produce and
market coal. The Company may be in a position of competitive disadvantage with
many of these companies in that they have greater sources of capital, technical
and management personnel, research facilities and sources of information.
Compliance with statutory requirements respecting environmental quality may
necessitate significant capital outlays which may materially effect the earning
power of the Company or may cause material changes in the Company's proposed
business. In the past fiscal year, the Company expended less than $1,000 to
comply with environmental regulation. It does not contemplate spending
significant funds incidental to its operation in the present fiscal year to
comply with environmental regulations.
The Company markets its properties or interest in its properties to others
who will develop them with the Company retaining an economic interest. The
Company also drills exploratory oil and gas wells by itself and in joint venture
with others. Additional funds may be needed to engage in these activities and
the Company hopes to finance all or some of its interest in these by having
others pay for the drilling and/or completion of wells in exchange for an
interest in the particular well or prospect.
The business of the Company is seasonal only to the extent that weather
conditions, particularly snow and cold in the winter, impede the ability of the
Company or others who may be developing properties in which the Company has an
interest to conduct exploratory activities, drilling production or mining
operations.
2
The Company employs its President, Jack C. Bradley, Jr., who receives $1000
monthly and reimbursement of his actual and necessary expenses.
The Company is operating in one industry segment, the exploration,
production and sale of oil and gas. See Financial Statements.
The Company is Y2K compliant as of February 28, 1999. The Company believes
its major purchasers and suppliers are also Y2K compliant. The Company feels
that its remediation plan has adequately addressed the Year 2000 problem, and
therefore, this issue is not expected to have a material effect on the
Company's internal operations. The Company has also attmepted to assess the
impact of this issue on the various entities with which the Company does
business. Although failure of these entities to adequately address the Year
2000 issue could indirectly impact the Company, it is not possible to quantify
that impact, if any. However, the Company does not anticipate that the impact
would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business.
Item 2. Properties
The Company rents office space in the Goodstein Building in Casper, Wyoming
at $400 per month.
Oil and Gas Properties. For the following discussion, gross well or acre
is a well or acre in which an interest is owned. The number of gross wells is
the total number of wells in which an interest is owned.
A net well or acre is deemed to exist when the sum of fractional ownership
interest in gross wells or acres equals one. The number of net wells or acres
is the sum of the fractional ownership interests owned in gross wells or acres
as expressed as whole numbers and fractions thereof.
A summary of the Company's oil and gas properties as of February 28, 1999
all located in the state of Wyoming is as follows:

The reserve estimates for all properties were computed both by management
and by independent petroleum engineers for areas in which the Company has
interest in certain wells. No reserve figures have been filed with or reported
to any other regulatory authorities or agencies.
Oil and Gas Operations. The Company follows the successful efforts method
of accounting for oil and gas exploration and development activities. Under
this method of accounting lease acquisition costs, intangible drilling costs and
other costs associated with exploration efforts which result in the discovery of
proved reserves are capitalized. Costs of well equipment, development drilling,
support facilities, major betterments and renewals and other development costs
are capitalized. Capitalized costs are amortized using the units of production
method. For leasehold costs, the basis is total estimated units proved
developed reserves both of which are estimated by independent engineers and
management of the Company. the amortized amounts are charged to depreciation
and depletion expense. The recoverability of costs capitalized related to
proved and unproved acreage is reviewed periodically. Any impairment discovered
is charged to expenses.
Costs of drilling exploratory wells which do not result in the discovery of
proved reserves are charged to expense. Production costs, geological and
geophysical costs, and maintenance and repairs are charged to expense.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Conditions and Results of Operation
Financial Position
During the Company's fiscal year 1999, net cash increased by $4,518.
Of this increase, $50,000 was from a bank loan, $1,247 was principal payments on
debt and cash used in operations $44,227. The Company's emphasis regarding
property additions continues to be toward acquiring existing production rather
than from drilling new wells. No new drilling was done by the Company in fiscal
1999. Short term notes payable increased by $49,992 which was discussed above
and used in operations. The Company has financed property acquisitions in the
past with debt and continue to repay such borrowing with the revenues from those
properties.
7
Result of Operations
The Company's oil and gas revenues decreased from 306,807 in fiscal 1998
to $131,682, mainly due to a decrease in oil prices and decrease in produciton
in fiscal 1999. Present production has the effect of decreasing Wyoming Oil &
Minerals reserves. Crude oil sales decreased significantly due to the very low
oil prices causing some wells to be shut in as they became uneconomical.
During fiscal 1999, the amount reserved for the depletion of reserves and
the depreciation of equipment was $11,605. Loss on operations for the year
was $98,665 due to the cost of working over some wells and the reasons stated
above.
Production and operating expenses decreased approximately 21% as a
percentage from fiscal 1998 to 1999, due to reasons stated above.
"Total" General and Administrative expenses decreased approximately $10,668
from fiscal 1998 compared to fiscal 1999 due to the President reducting his
salary by one half for most of the year. Since fiscal 1985, the Company resolved
to avoid those activities that required additional outside professional services
and to limit operations to the management of existing properties and the
acquisition of additional properties within the Company's ordinary course of
business.
Interest expense increased over the prior year due to the additional bank
financing discussed above.
Management anticipates the higher prices for oil for 2000. Therfore
management anticipates sufficent revenue to pay expenses for fiscal year 2000.
Financial Position
During the Company's fiscal year 1998, net cash decreased by $3,976. Of
this decrease, $112,399 was from the purchase of properties and $3,500 was
principal payments on debt. The Company's emphasis regarding property additions
continues to be toward acquiring existing production rather than from drilling
new wells. No new drilling was done by the Company in fiscal 1998. Short term
notes payable decreased by $3,500 which was paid in cash. The Company has
financed property acquisitions with debt and continue to pay such borrowing with
the revenues from those properties.
Result of Operations
The Company's oil and gas revenues decreased from $357,765 in fiscal 1997
to $306,807, mainly due to a decrease in oil prices in fiscal 1998. Present
production has the effect of decreasing Wyoming Oil & Minerals reserves,
however, due mainly to doing the waterflood of the Don Thorson #1, total oil and
gas reserves increased significantly for the fiscal year ended February 28,
1998. An independent engineering firm generated a partial reserves analysis
during fiscal year 1998. Crude oil stayed approximately the same.
During fiscal 1998, the amount reserved for the depletion of reserves and
the depreciation of equipment was $15,934. Income on operations for the year
was $18,197 due, in part, to the cost of abandoned nonproducing properties being
only $4,842.
8
Production and operating expenses decreased approximately 19% as a
percentage from fiscal 1997 to 1998, due to less workover costs.
"Total" General and Administrative expenses decreased approximately
$5,498 from fiscal 1997 compared to fiscal 1998 due to a decrease in expenses
for well logs, maps, etc. of $5,292. Since fiscal 1985, the Company resolved
to avoid those activites that required additional outside professional services
and to limit operations to the management of existing properties and the
acquisition of additional properties within the Compan's ordinary course of
business.
Interest expense remained approximately the same as in fiscal 1997.
Management anticipates the current low prices for oil will continue
throughout 1999. Therefore management anticipates revenue and expenses will
remain about the same for fiscal year 2000.
Financial Position
During the Company's fiscal year 1997, net cash decreased by $287. Of this
decrease, $2,913 is the result of operating activities, $800 was from the sale
of properties and $4,000 was principal payments on debt. The Company's emphasis
regarding property additions continues to be toward acquiring existing
production rather than from drilling new wells. No new drilling was done by the
Company in fiscal 1997 and significant costs related to maintaining existing
production. Short term notes payable decreased by $4,000 which was paid in
cash. The Company has financed property acquisitions with debt and continue to
repay such borrowing with the revenues from those properties.
During the Company's fiscal year 1997, crude oil prices varied within a
range of approximately $16.81 to $24.98 a barrel. Natural gas prices varied
within a range of approximately $1.17 to $3.68. Revenue from such acquired
properties must not only service debt, but continue to provide positive cash
flow after retirement of that debt.
Result of Operations
The Company's oil and gas revenues increased from $266,227 in fiscal 1996
to $357,765 in fiscal 1997. Present production has the effect of decreasing
Wyoming Oil & Minerals reserves, however, due mainly to not doing the waterflood
of the Don Thorson #1 and the Wade Hill unit, total oil and gas reserves
decreased significantly for the fiscal year ended February 29, 1997. An
independent engineering firm generated a partial reserves analysis during fiscal
year 1997. Crude oil sales increased by approximately 3474 equivalent barrels,
which was mainly due to the Don Thorson #1 and the Wade Hill Unit increasing
production.
During fiscal 1997, the amount reserved for the depletion of reserves and
the depreciation of equipment was $17,184. Loss on operations for the year was
$9,698 due to the cost of abandoned properties of $28,619.
Production and operating expenses decreased approximately 18% as a
percentage from fiscal 1996 to 1997, due to less workover costs.
9
"Total" General and Administrative expenses remained approximately the same
in fiscal 1996 compared to fiscal 1997. Since fiscal 1985, the Company resolved
to avoid those activities that required additional outside professional services
and to limit operations to the management of existing properties and the
acquisition of additional properties within the Company's ordinary course of
business.
Interest expense remained approximately the same as in fiscal 1996.
Management anticipates higher crude oil and natural gas prices and
therefore, an increase in oil and gas revenues in fiscal year 1998 to fiscal
year 1997 will come from additional production and higher oil and gas prices.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
General
Wyoming Oil and Minerals, Inc. engages principally in the exploration,
development and production of oil and gas which is mainly in Wyoming.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles require management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Accounts receivable
The Company uses the direct write off method for bad debts which expenses
uncollectible accounts in the year they become uncollectible. Any
difference between this method and the allowance method is not material.
Marketable equity securities
Marketable equity securities are classified as available-for-sale securities
and are carried at fair value at the balance sheet date.
When securities are sold, the cost is based on the first-in, first-out
method.
Oil and gas properties
The Company follows the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and
gas exploration and development activities. Under this method of
accounting, lease acquisition costs, intangible drilling costs and other
costs associated with exploration efforts, which result in the discovery of
proved reserves, are capitalized. Costs of well equipment, development
drilling, support facilities, major betterment and renewals and other
development costs are also capitalized. Capitalized acquisition costs of
proved properties are amortized using the unit-of-production method on the
basis of total estimated units of proved oil and gas reserves. Other
capitalized costs are amortized using the unit-of-production method on the
basis of total estimated units of proved developed reserves. The amortized
amounts are charged to depreciation and depletion expense. The
recoverability of costs capitalized both for proved and unproved properties
is reviewed periodically. Any impairment discovered is charged to expense.
Costs of drilling exploratory wells which do not result in the discovery of
proved reserves are charged to expense. Production costs, geological and
geophysical costs, and maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when
incurred.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Other property and equipment
The Company's pipeline and drilling equipment and office furniture and
equipment are depreciated utilizing the straight-line method to apportion
costs over an estimated useful life of five years.
Income taxes
Investment tax credits are recorded in the year in which they are utilized
to reduce income taxes.
Earnings (loss) per common share
Earnings or loss per common share is based on the weighted average number of
shares of the Company's $.01 par value common stock outstanding during the
year.
Statement of cash flows
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to financial statements of prior
years to be comparative with the current year presentation.
Off-Balance-Sheet Risk
Sale of oil and gas are made to domestic petroleum purchasing and refining
companies with payment normally received within thirty to sixty days of
sale. Billings to joint interest holders are normally received within
thirty to sixty days of billing.

7. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
The Company has adopted a key-employee stock option plan. The plan provides
for a maximum of 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock available to
be optioned. The fair market value of the shares, as determined by the Board
of Directors at the time the option is granted, will be the exercise price.
The options will expire on the earlier of five years after being granted or
two months after termination of employment. Since the adoption of the plan,
no options have been granted.
No dividends have ever been declared or paid.
8. INCOME TAXES
Net income and losses differ from taxable income (loss) because certain
revenues and expenses are reported in the financial statements in periods
which differ for those in which they are subject to taxation. The principal
timing differences are intangible drilling costs, which are deducted as
incurred for tax purposes, but capitalized and depleted for proven properties
for financial statement purposes; and unrealized losses on marketable
securities, which are recognized for financial statement purposes currently,
but not until realized for tax purposes. Deferred income taxes are not
recognized on the timing differences as it is not likely that all net
operating loss carryforwards will be used.

10. MAJOR PURCHASERS AND CONCENTRATION OF RISK
Substantially all of the Company's accounts receivable at February 28, 1999
and 1998 result from oil and gas sales to other companies in the oil and gas
industry or joint industry billings to other interest holders. This
concentration of customers may impact the Company's overall credit risk,
either positively or negatively, in that these entities may be similarly
affected by industry - wide changes in economic or other conditions.
Such receivables are generally not collateralized. One single joint
interest receivable comprises 57% of total noncurrent accounts receivable
at February 28, 1999.
The following customers each contributed 10% or more of the revenues derived
from oil and gas sales for the years ending February 28, as follows:
1999 1998 1997

Oil and Gas Reserve Quantities
The estimates of proved reserves and related valuations were determined
both by management and by independent petroleum engineers. Estimates of
proved reserves are inherently imprecise and are continually subject to
revision based on production history, results of additional exploration and
development and other factors.
Proved reserves are reserves judged to be economically producible in future
years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating
conditions; i.e., prices and costs as of the date the estimate is made and
assuming continuation of current regulatory practice using conventional
production methods and equipment. Proved developed reserves are those
expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and
operating methods.

Standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows and changes therein
relating to proved oil and gas reserves
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 69 prescribes guidelines for
computing a standardized measure of future net cash flows and changes
therein relating to estimated proved reserves. The Company has followed
those guidelines which are briefly discussed below.
Future cash inflows and future production and development costs are
determined by applying year-end prices and costs to the estimated quantities
of oil and gas to be produced. Estimated future income taxes are computed
using year-end statutory income tax rates, including consideration for
previously legislated future statutory depletion rates and investment tax
credits. The resulting future net cash flows are reduced to present value
amounts by applying a 10% annual discount factor.

The assumptions used to compute the standardized measure are those
prescribed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and, as such, do not
necessarily reflect the Company's expectations of actual revenues to be
derived from those reserves or their present worth. The limitations
inherent in the reserve quantity estimation process, as discussed
previously, are equally applicable to the standardized measure computations
since these estimates are the basis for the valuation process.
Presented below are the standardized measure of discounted future net cash
flows and changes therein relating to proved reserves as of and for the
