NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- -----------------------------
1. Management Opinion
These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1995.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim unaudited
financial statements contain all the adjustments necessary to present
fairly the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 1996,
the results of operations for the periods shown in the statements of
operations, and the changes in cash position for the periods shown in
the statements of cash flows. All adjustments made are of a normal
recurring nature.
2. Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 (SFAS No. 121),
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to Be Disposed Of. This Statement is effective for financial
statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. Under
SFAS No. 121 an entity shall review long-lived assets and certain
identifiable intangibles to be held and used for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
of an asset may not be recoverable. If the changes in circumstances
are present or if other circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of an asset that an entity expects to hold and use may not be
recoverable, the entity shall estimate the future cash flows expected
to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition.
Future cash flows are the future cash inflows expected to be
generated by an asset (grouped at the lowest level for which there
are identifiable cash flows) less the future cash flows expected to
be necessary to obtain those inflows. If the sum of expected future
cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than
the carrying amount of the asset, the entity shall recognize an
impairment loss in accordance with SFAS No. 121. Otherwise, an
impairment loss shall not be recognized. The company has not adopted
SFAS No. 121 as of March 31, 1996; however, the Company estimates
that if it were to adopt SFAS No. 121 as of that date, it would be
required to record a provision of approximately $196,000 for the
impairment of certain of its oil and gas properties.
3. Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and
disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those
estimates.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations
and Financial Condition.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
Third Quarter Results
- ---------------------
The Company reports net income of $23,045, or 1 cent per share, for
the three month period ended March 31, 1996. This compares with a loss of
$46,306, or 2 cents per share, for the same period a year ago. The
improved results from the year ago period was primarily the result of
lower dry hole and abandonment costs which more than offset lower oil and
gas revenues.
The Company's revenues for the three month period ended March 31,
1996 were $351,114 compared to $396,176 during the same period of 1995, a
decrease of $45,062 or 11%. Overall revenues decreased due to lower
production volumes for oil and gas and lower interest income. Revenue
from oil and gas sales was $338,526 for the third quarter, a decrease of
$38,830, or 10%, as compared to $377,356 for the same period last year.
Lower oil and gas revenues resulted from lower production volumes versus
the same period a year ago. The impact of the lower production volumes
was offset by higher oil and gas prices than the same period last year.
Oil prices were up approximately $2.50 per barrel and gas prices were up
approximately 30 to 50 cents per MCF from the same period last year. Two
factors contributed to the lower production volumes. The first factor is
the reduction of the Company's net revenue interest in the State GC well
due to that well reaching payout. This payout was achieved much earlier
than expected due to the well's excellent performance. The second factor
is the poorer than expected results from the Pierce Unit waterflood.
After an excellent initial response from water injection the unit has not
performed as expected. The unit operates profitably but is down over 100
bopd (barrels of oil per day) from the same period last year. The
operator has taken steps to reconfigure the waterflood injection pattern.
Results of these changes are not yet known, however the field appears to
have stabilized.
The Company's total expenses decreased $114,413, or 26%, to $328,069
for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 as compared to $442,482 for the same
period a year ago, a result of lower dry hole and administrative costs.
Production and operating expenses increased by $7,746 to $140,159 versus
$132,413 a year ago. The increase in current year production expenses
versus a year ago is due to remedial work on several wells.
The Company did not participate in the drilling of any wells during
the third quarter ended March 31, 1996. Accordingly, dry hole costs
decreased from year ago levels.
General and Administrative costs decreased $60,814 or 36%, to
$109,448 as compared to $170,262 for the same period a year ago. The
decrease in administrative costs is due to the recognition of annual SEC
reporting, proxy and shareholder meeting costs in the second quarter this
year and lower engineering and legal fees.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------
At March 31, 1996, the Company had working capital of $961,849. This
compares to the Company's working capital of $1,135,911 as of March 31,
1995. The decrease in working capital is attributable to the Company's
exploration efforts earlier in the fiscal year.
The net cash used by operating activities was $53,753 for the period
ended March 31, 1996, a decrease of $171,266, versus the prior year's cash
used of $225,019. The Company's accounts receivable increased $17,340 to
$168,564 during the period as compared to a decrease of $10,708 to
$181,124 for the same period last year. Other assets increased during the
period due to the capitalization of certain legal fees. The Company's
accounts payable decreased $5,802 to $100,945 during the period as
compared to a decrease of $55,637 to $109,903 for the prior year. Accrued
liabilities decreased by $34,606, or 33%, to $71,650 during the period as
compared to an increase of $18,101 to $70,655 last year. The decrease was
primarily a result of the receipt and payment of accrued revenues and
accrued lease operating expenses on the West Buffalo Red River well. All
other factors regarding operating activities affecting cash flow were
relatively unchanged or insignificant.
Net cash flow used in investing activities was $487,126, a increase
of $2,327 from the prior year's use of $484,799. Approximately $349,000
of the cash used in investing activities during the current period was to
purchase short-term investments and approximately $169,000 was used to
acquire or maintain leasehold interests on domestic and international
prospects. During the period, the Company sold its interest in the Sam
Acola lease in Texas for $2,888, sold its interest in the Royal
Federal 35-7 well on the North Adon leasehold for $5,773 and received sale
proceeds from the sale of miscellaneous equipment of $23,277.
Cash provided from financing activities increased $43,593 during the
nine months ended March 31, 1996. Approximately $41,625 of the increase
was attributable to the payment to the Company of the short-term gain
realized by an affiliate on the sale of shares of the Company's stock held
less than six months. Additional proceeds from the issuance of common
stock in the amount of $1,968 were received by the Company pursuant to the
exercise of stock options under the Company's Non Qualified Stock Option
Plan. Cash provided from financing activities was considerably lower than
year ago totals when the Company had just completed a private placement of
its common stock for proceeds of $1,365,335.
INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES
-----------------------------
Inflation has not had a significant effect on the Company's results
of operations. However, the constantly fluctuating price of crude oil and
natural gas materially affects the Company's cash flow, either positively
or negatively.
