TRI-VALLEY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
JUNE 30, 2000 AND 1999
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
-----------------------
The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such
information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring
adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
statement of results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the
six month period ended June 30, 2000, are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include footnotes and
certain financial presentations normally required under generally accepted
accounting principles; and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.
NOTE 2 - PER SHARE COMPUTATIONS
------------------------
Per share computations are based upon the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during each year. Common stock equivalents are not included
in the computations since their effect would be anti-dilutive.

BUSINESS REVIEW
Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
----------------------------------------------
This report contains forward-looking statements. The words, "anticipate,"
"believe," "expect," "plan," "intend," "estimate," "project," "could," "may,"
"foresee," and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. These statements include information regarding expected development
of the Company's business, lending activities, relationship with customers, and
development in the oil and gas industry. Should one or more of these risks or
uncertainties occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual
results may vary materially and adversely from those anticipated, believed,
estimated or otherwise indicated.
Petroleum Activities
---------------------
On February 7, 2000 we began drilling the EKHO #1well and reached our total
depth objective of just over 19,000 feet in 80 drilling days. It is anticipated
that the drilling costs will be under budget. We ran various logs to gather
data as to the commercial ability of the well. Target zones of interest appear
as anticipated. The Company is currently completion testing the well.
The Sunrise project has been sold and we are in the process of contracting and
permitting, to enable us to begin drilling in the third quarter of this year.
We had anticipated that we would be able to begin drilling in the second
quarter. However, the permitting process has been changed and it is now
expected to take from two to six months to get permitted compared to
approximately 5 days permitting time in the past.
As funds are received from our joint venture participants the funds are placed
in our cash account in our current assets and into advances from joint venture
participants in our current liabilities. As these funds are expended for the
appropriate project the cash is reduced and the amount in our advances from
joint venture participants is reduced in a like amount.
We anticipate recompleting the Martin-Severins #5, #6 and the Hanson #3 in the
third quarter of 2000.
Precious Metals
----------------
Placer Dome crews began their second season of exploration on May 15, 2000.
Again this season, the Russian scientists from TsNIGRI, the Russian mineral
institution, have returned to continue their excellent exploration activities on
the Company's behalf.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
----------------------------------------------------------------------
OF OPERATIONS
--------------
Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 as compared with Three Months ended June 30,
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1999
----
Revenue increased $1,150,554 in the quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared to the
same quarter ended June 30, 1999. This was due to the receipt of final funds
related to our Sunrise Prospect.
Costs and expenses increased $702,068 as the Company expensed the costs related
to the sale of our projects and increased General & Administrative costs.
We had a profit of $288,879 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared to a
loss of $159,607 for the comparable period in 1999.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 as compared with Six Months ended June 30, 1999
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company had total revenues of $1,810,223 for the six months ended June 30,
2000 compared to revenues of $393,254 for the same period in 1999. This
increase was due in large part to the selling of our Sunrise Prospect.
Additionally, our gas revenue increased because of increased production from
Hanson #1 well which has been reworked and the increase in gas prices. Interest
income increased due to cash in interest bearing accounts which was the result
of the sale of the Sunrise prospect. Depletion, depreciation and amortization
decreased because of declining production.
Costs and expenses were $1,503,935 for the six months ended June 30, 2000
compared to $753,037 for the same period in 1999. This increase was related to
the sale of the Sunrise prospect which included land acquisition and geological
costs.
General and Administrative costs were $628,239 for this six month period
compared to $527,565 for the comparable period in 1999. This increase was due
in part to increased legal expenses and consulting expenses.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
----------------------------------
At June 30, 2000, we had current assets totaling $3,153,658 compared to
$8,207,682 for the six months ended June 30, 1999. Current liabilities were
$2,860,861 for the current period compared to $8,375,244 for the same period
last year. These decreases were due to reduction in cash and reduction in
advances from joint venture partners. This was because of paying the costs
related to drilling the EKHO #1.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
----------------------------------------------------------------------
OF OPERATIONS
--------------
Operating Activities. Cash provided by operations were a deficit of $5,228,583
for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to a deficit of $92,189 for the
same period in 1999. This was due to expenditures of the drilling operation
related to the EKHO #1.
Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities increased
$249,547 for the period ended June 30, 2000 over the same period in 1999 due to
the sale of the Company's common stock in private transactions.
Advances from joint venture participants. The $1,348,539 advances from joint
venture participants at June 30, 2000, for the most part represents funds
advanced for the Sunrise Project. The $7,877,600 at December 31, 1999
represents funds that were advanced for the EKHO project.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
------------------
We are still proceeding with the foreclosure proceedings regarding Third Mobile
of Central New York. A third party, who has filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy, is
claiming ownership of the assets securing our Promissory Note and Security
Agreement. We are defending our claim to these assets and believe their
allegations are without merit and we are confident that we will prevail in our
efforts.
ITEM 1. CHANGES IN SECURITIES
-----------------------
During the second quarter of 2000, we issued 186,800 shares of our common stock
to 7 individuals in private transactions pursuant to the exemption contained in
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, for aggregate consideration of
$219,250. The shares sold are restricted securities which bear a legend
restricting transfer of the shares unless registered or sold under an exemption
from registration requirements under the Securities Act.
