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


                                     GENERAL

 RESULT OF OPERATIONS

 The  following is a discussion  of the results of operations of the Company for
 the three months ended  November 30, 1997.  This  discussion  should be read in
 conjunction with the Company's unaudited  Consolidated Financial Statements and
 the notes thereto included in Part I of this Quarterly Report.

 The factors which most significantly affect the Company's results of operations
 are (i) the sale prices of crude oil and natural  gas,  (ii) the level of total
 sales volumes,  (iii) the level of lease operating expenses, and (iv) the level
 of and interest  rates on  borrowings.  Total sales volumes for oil and natural
 gas are significantly impacted by the degree of success the Company experiences
 in its efforts to maintain or increase production from its existing oil and gas
 properties through its development activities.

 Average sales prices received by the Company for oil and gas have  historically
 fluctuated  significantly  from  period to period.  Fluctuations  in oil prices
 during these periods reflect market  uncertainty as well as concerns related to
 the global supply and demand for crude oil.  Average gas prices received by the
 Company fluctuate generally with changes in the spot market price for gas. Spot
 market gas prices  have  generally  declined in recent  years  because of lower
 worldwide energy prices as well as excess  deliverability of natural gas in the
 United  States.   Relatively  modest  changes  in  either  oil  or  gas  prices
 significantly  impact the  Company's  results of  operations  and cash flow and
 could  significantly  impact  the  Company's  borrowing  capacity.   Management
 presently  believes that the level of crude prices  worldwide are too low to be
 sustained  for any  extended  period and that prices  will  rebound to previous
 levels.

Quarter ended  November 30, 1997  compared to Quarter  ended  November 30, 1996.
Revenues for the three months ending  November 30, 1997 were $ 375,172  compared
to $ 16,217 for the comparable  quarter ended November 30 , 1996 and reflects an
increase in the operating revenue from the Company's oil and gas operations as a
result of the  acquisitions  of (1) Double Eagle and the oil and gas  properties
acquired from (2) Enserch Exploration, Inc.
Production  operating expenses were $ 330,172 for the quarter ended November 30,
1997 compared to $ 13,160 for the quarter  ended  November 30, 1996 and reflects
an increase due to the acquisition of Double Eagle Petroleum Corporation and the
oil and gas properties acquired from Enserch Exploration, Inc.

General and  administrative  costs  increased  to $ 168,669 for the three months
ending  November  30, 1997 from $ 32,125 for the same period a year  earlier and
primarily  reflects the increased level of the Company's activity in its oil and
gas  production  as a  result  of the  Double  Eagle  acquisition.  G & A should
increase significantly as the

<PAGE>



Company  begins  continues  to acquire  additional  properties  and  initiates a
corporate public relations campaign.

The  Company had an  after-tax  net loss of $ 36,250 ( $0.001 per share) for the
quarter ended  November 30, 1997 compared to a net. loss of $ 54,529 ( $0.01 per
share) for the comparable  quarter a year earlier.  The decrease in the net loss
in income is  attributable  primarily to an increase in the revenues as a result
of the Double Eagle acquisition and is offset by an attendant increase in G & A.
The  Company  expects to  continue to  experience  losses  during the periods of
significant growth of the Company.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

The Company's  capital  requirements  relate primarily to the development of its
oil and gas properties.  Prior to the change in control,  the Company funded its
very limited  activities from cash flow. The Company,  through its subsidiaries,
has established  credit  facilities with a bank to facilitate the funding of its
operations,  has sold oil and gas properties to provide  working capital and has
from time to received unsecured loam from its principal shareholder.

The  level  of the  Company's  capital  expenditures  will  vary  in the  future
depending on energy market conditions and upon the level of acquisition activity
achieved by the Company.  The Company anticipates that its cash flow will not be
sufficient to fund its  operations  and debt service at their current levels for
the  next  year  and  that  additional  capital  will be  required.  There is no
assurance that the Company will have sufficient funds to meet its obligations.

The Company's bank credit facility consists of a revolving credit facility under
which  the  Company  has  available  to it a  revolving  line of  credit  in the
principal  amount of $3,400,000  including the term loan  discussed  under Notes
Payable above.  The Company is required to make interest  payments  monthly with
interest accruing at a varying rate based on the sum of the bank's prime lending
rate ( 10.5 % at November 30, 1997 ). The revolving line of credit is secured by
substantially all of the Company's oil and gas properties.  At November 30, 1997
the  outstanding  balance under the Company's  credit  facilities  with its Bank
totaled $ 3,313,657.

At November 30, 1997 the Company had current  assets of $ 1,087,620  and current
liabilities  of $ 1,693,751  which  resulted in  negative  working  capital of $
606,131

<PAGE>


which  is  primarily  comprised  of  senior  bank  debt  and  notes  payable  to
shareholders and accounts payable.  The Company believes that its cash flow from
operations will not be sufficient to meet its anticipated capital  requirements.
As a result the Company believes it will require  additional  financing in order
to carry on its  operations.  Because future cash flows and the  availability of
financing are subject to a number of variables, such as the level of production,
the prices of oil and gas, and the  Company's  ability to  successfully  acquire
additional oil and natural gas properties at reasonable prices,  there can be no
assurance that the Company's  capital  resources or ability to attract financing
will be sufficient to maintain currently planned levels of capital expenditures.
If the Company is unable to maintain its current level of operations, management
believes  the  Company  may be  compelled  to sell  certain  assets  to meet its
obligations or to otherwise curtail its activities.

SEASONALITY

The results of operations  of the Company are somewhat  seasonal due to seasonal
fluctuations  in the price for crude oil and natural gas. Due to these  seasonal
fluctuations,  results of operations for individual quarterly periods may not be
indicative of results which may be realized on an annual basis.

INFLATION AND PRICES

The Company's revenues and the value of its oil and gas properties have been and
will be  affected  by changes in oil and gas prices.  The  Company's  ability to
maintain  current  borrowing  capacity  and  to  obtain  additional  capital  on
attractive terms is also substantially  dependent on oil and gas prices. Oil and
gas prices are subject to significant fluctuations that are beyond the Company's
ability to control or predict.
