MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Six Months Comparison
- Marketing
Gross revenues for the Company's Marketing operations increased
by $262,806,000 or 40%, in the comparative current period as a result of
(a) increased average crude oil prices, (b) increased volumes of crude oil
purchased at the wellhead, and (c) more active crude oil trading effort.
Compared to last year's first half, average crude oil sales prices were
increased by approximately 17% in 1997. Average wellhead purchases were
60,000 barrels per day in 1997 versus 55,000 barrels per day in 1996.
Marketing division operating margins before depreciation for the first six
months of 1997 were reduced to $1,033,000 versus $5,746,000 in the similar
1996 period. This result was because of a reversal of the unusually
favorable market demand conditions that existed in 1996. During 1996, and
especially in the second quarter of 1996, there were a number of spot
market shortages of crude oil that served to temporarily increase the
Company's margins.
- Transportation
Transportation revenues and operating earnings before
depreciation increased as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
First Half First Half Percentage
1997 1996 Increase
----------- ----------- -----------
<S> <C> <C> <C>
Revenues $14,271,000 $10,489,000 36%
Operating earnings
before depreciation $ 2,825,000 $ 1,460,000 93%
</TABLE>
The revenue increase resulted from generally strong customer
demand during the current quarter. Improved customer demand is consistent
with the generally strong United States economy. Operating earnings
improved as a direct result of the increased demand. Because of the fixed
cost component of the company's transportation operation, on a percentage
basis, operating earnings will improve at a faster rate than revenues.
- Oil and Gas
Oil and gas revenues and operating earnings increased for the
comparative six month period primarily as a result of increased natural
gas prices and volumes in the first quarter of 1997. Natural gas
production volumes increased as a direct result of the Company's drilling
efforts during 1996. Such volume increases reduced in the second quarter
of 1997, however, due to normal declines.

</TABLE>
- Other income (expense)
The provision for depreciation, depletion and amortization is
reduced in the current period because of a reduced capitalized cost base.
The large provision for depreciation, depletion and amortization in 1996
served to reduce the level of capitalized costs to be amortized in 1997
and future years. Property sales and other income in 1997 include a
$401,000 recovery from an insurance carrier for prior year overcharges and
a $215,000 gain realized on the sale of twenty-one truck tractors. Seven
tank trailers were sold in 1996 for a $166,000 gain. Interest expense is
reduced in 1997 because the Company used its excess cash flow to reduce
long term debt.
- Three Months Comparisons
Comparisons for the three month period ended June 30, 1997 are
consistent with the discussions for the six month period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the first six months of 1997, the Company invested
$4,156,000 in property equipment additions with $2,499,000 going towards
oil and gas drilling efforts and the remainder for various marketing and
transportation equipment items. Funding for these investments was derived
from the Company generating $5,860,000 of working capital funds. The
$1,709,000 of excess cash flow generated was utilized to reduce bank debt.
Refer to the "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section of the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996
for additional discussion of the Company's bank relationships, tax
carryforwards and other matters.
