Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and
Results of Operations:
In February, 1997, the Board of Directors declared a 1-for-50 reverse stock
split in the Company's common stock, effective February 28, 1997. The Company
also changed the par value from $.001 per share to $.01 per share and reduced
the authorized shares from 150,000,000 to 50,000,000. All share and per share
data, as appropriate, reflect this split. The effect of the split is presented
retroactively within stockholders' equity at September 30, 1996 by transferring
the excess stated capital to the paid-in-capital account.
Revenues and Operating Expenses:
During the third quarter of 1997, the Company's equipment rental revenue
decreased. This decrease is due the fact that the Company is currently not
leasing all of its rental equipment.
For the nine months ending September 30, 1997, the Company has experienced
decreases in oil and gas revenue, equipment rental revenue and lease operating
expenses. The decline in oil and gas revenue is mainly due to a decrease in oil
and gas market prices. Equipment rental revenue has declined because the Company
is currently not leasing all of its rental equipment. Lease operating expenses
have decreased because the Company has had to spend less money to maintain its
current level of oil and gas production.
