                ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

Current quarter as compared to the corresponding quarter of one year ago
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company experienced net income of $2,182 for the current quarter as compared
to a net  loss of $37,958  for the corresponding  quarter of one  year ago.  The
positive operating results can be attributed to the sale in the current  quarter
of the  shallow production  rights on  a  prospect the  Company drilled  in  the
current quarter. The prospect proved to be a dry hole for the Company.

Acquisitions accounted  for an  increase in  oil and  gas sales  of 5%  for  the
current quarter as compared to the corresponding quarter of one year ago. During
the current quarter, the Company purchased  a 25% working interest in three  oil
fields in  Wyoming.  The  Company acquired  122,250  barrels  of  producing  oil
reserves. The  increase in  oil and  gas  sales was  offset  by an  increase  in
production costs.

Costs and expenses  increased 23%  for the current  quarter as  compared to  the
corresponding quarter of  one year  ago. The increase  is due  primarily to  the
expensing of  an exploratory  dry  hole, and  an  increase in  depreciation  and
depletion of  oil  and  gas  properties.  General  and  administrative  expenses
decreased 12% as the Company implemented a program to reduce overhead expenses.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------

During the current quarter, the Company  received $204,000 in proceeds from  the
private placement of  shares of  the Company's  stock. In  addition the  Company
borrowed a net of $175,000 on its letter of credit arrangement. The Company also
experienced a net cash  flow from operations of  $130,000. The Company  utilized
$375,000 of  these funds  in the  purchase of  the working  interests  discussed
above. These transactions,  combined with other  operations, resulted  in a  net
decrease in working capital of $116,000.
