Management's Discussion
Operating revenues for the quarter ending June 30, 1995
were $214,501 or 6% less than the quarter ending December 31,
1994 and $1,239,184 or 52% more than the quarter ending June 30,
1995.
Degree days for the quarter ending June 30, 1995 were 1168
or 54% less than the quarter ending December 31, 1994 and 86 or
10% more than the quarter ending June 30, 1995. Since much of
the Company's sales are dependent on weather conditions, the
effects of the changes in degree days are reflected in the total
MCF (thousand Cubic feet) deliveries.
Increase (Decrease)
From Quarter Ending
Actual MCF Deliveries 6/30/95
Quarter Ending 06/30/95 1,460,330
Quarter Ending 12/31/94 1,990,968 530,638
Quarter Ending 06/30/94 1,448,913 ( 11,417)
MCF deliveries include transportation of customer owned gas
for specific end use customers for which the Company receives a
fee equal to its normal markup for transporting the gas.
Operating expenses, made up largely of the cost of purchased
gas were $47,981 or 1% less than the quarter ending December
31, 1994 and $1,285,334 or 61% more than the quarter ending June
30, 1995.
Net Income was $238,540 or 88% less than the quarter ended
December 31, 1994 and $18,214 or 35% less than the quarter ending
June 30, 1995.
Since the Company's business is seasonal by quarters,
results for the first six months of 1995 should not be used as
an indication of what results for the full twelve months of 1995
may be.
In October, 1993, the Company commenced operating in the
deregulated environment brought on by the implementation of
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Order 636. The Company now
makes purchasing decisions at the wellhead and must arrange and
monitor the delivery of gas through the national pipeline
network. This is a daily and even an hourly process. The
Company's gas supply portfolio is now comprised of numerous
contracts, short-term in length, ranging from 3 days to 2 years.
This is in stark contrast to the traditional long-term 20 year
contracts. Producer spot market prices change daily and escalate
during periods of peak demand. Another responsibility of the
Company under deregulation is the management of much greater
levels of storage gas. The Company held 608,150 Mcf in storage
at December 31, 1994 valued at $1,234,700 compared to 575,452 Mcf
with a value of $1,491,000 a year earlier. The system was
certainly put to the test in the first winter of deregulation,
and the Company came through the cold snap without any major
problems.
Internal generation of funds should be sufficient to meet
the needs of the Company coupled with some intermittent short-
term borrowings.
There has been no change in independent public accountants.
The Company has not filed any reports on Form 8-K for the quarter
ended June 30, 1995.
The information furnished herewith reflects all adjustments
which are in the opinion of management necessary to a fair
statement of the results for the period. Certain information and
footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules
and regulations, although the Company believes the disclosures
which are made are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading.
The condensed financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's latest annual report on Form 10-KSB.
The statements contained herein have not been examined or
certified by a firm of certified public accountants.
There were no sales of unregistered securities (debt or
equity) during the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 1995.
