CASCADE NATURAL GAS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE AND SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996
The preceding statements were taken from the books and records of the
Company and reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. All
adjustments, other than those specifically disclosed under "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations", were
of a normal and recurring nature.
Because of the highly seasonal nature of the business, earnings or loss for
any portion of the year are disproportionate in relation to the full year.
Reference is directed to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
contained in the 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-K and comments included therein
under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations".
