      THE NEW PARAHO CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES

NOTE 1 - MANAGEMENT REPRESENTATION

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial
position as of March 31, 1999 and the results of operations and
cash flows for the periods presented.  The results of operations 
for the nine month period ended March 31, 1999 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  The
June 30, 1998 balance sheet presented in this report is derived
from the June 30, 1998 audited financial statements but does not
include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles.
     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally required
by generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or
omitted.  It is suggested that these condensed financial statements
be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's June 30, 1998 audited report in
Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

NOTE 2 - DEBT

     On  May 1, 1994, the Company's line of credit from the Tell
Ertl Family Trust was increased to $5,500,000 and on June 1, 1998,
the note was amended to reflect a maturity date of July 1, 1999. 
Effective July 1, 1995, the Company was relieved and discharged of
all obligations to pay accrued interest on the line.  In addition,
the line shall no longer accrue interest as of July 1, 1995.  The
terms of the note provide that the Trust reserves the right to
approve activities and budgets of the Company during the term of
the promissory note.  The balance of the note at March 31, 1999 was
$865,596.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operation.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
   
     The Company realized a decrease in working capital of $67,105
during the nine months ended March 31, 1999.  Funds were primarily
provided by income from the rental of its Rifle facility.  On
August 29, 1989 the Company signed an unsecured promissory note
with the Tell Ertl Family Trust.  The principal amount of this note
was increased to a total of $5,500,000 on May 1, 1994.  As of March
31, 1999, the Company owed $865,596 to the Trust. The funds were
used to cover the cost of operating expenses and asphalt research
and development.  On December 18, 1996, the Company executed an
assignment of its interest in the note receivable from The Oil
Shale Company to the Trust in partial repayment of this note.  The
Company does not expect to be able to pay the balance remaining on
this note when it becomes due.
     The Company's three principal objectives include
commercialization of an oil shale derived asphalt binder, licensing
the Paraho technology, and research and development.  However, at
the present time, in light of its inability to obtain commercial
financing, the Company is maintaining a minimal level of activity. 
At this level, costs and expenses of $82,125 were incurred in the
nine months ended March 31, 1999.  The decrease in these costs over
the amount incurred in the same period of the previous year, is the
result of the termination of a contract with a consultant engaged
to seek financing for the Company.
     Possible future sources of cash include revenues from the
sales of SOMAT.  Additional future sources of cash may include
revenues from the performance of engineering services, or from the
use of the Company's pilot plant retort facility.  Management
presently does not expect that significant revenues from these
sources will be obtained.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Quarter ended March 31, 1999

     Revenues of $1,600 for the quarter ended March 31, 1999,
consisting primarily of rental of its Rifle facility, were
basically unchanged from the amount recognized in the same quarter
of the previous year.  Expenses of $21,223 for the quarter ended
March 31, 1999 were less than the same quarter in the previous
year, which had included a retainer to a consultant engaged to seek
financing for the Company.







                               -7-<PAGE>
PART II:  OTHER INFORMATION

     Item 1.   Legal Proceedings.
     
          The Company has been named in a complaint by an airport
authority which utilized the Company's product in paving an airport
runway.  The airport authority has also filed suit against the
general contractor and the project engineer alleging that the
runway was negligently designed and built.  Total damages asserted
against all three defendants are alleged to be $750,000. 
Management believes that the Company has meritorious defenses, and
that any potential liability would be covered by insurance.  While
the ultimate liability in this matter is difficult to assess,
management believes that the matter will be resolved without a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial position.
