NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.      METHOD OF PRESENTATION.

        The interim financial statements contained herein have been prepared in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and include all adjustments
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement
of the financial position and results of operations for the interim period
reported. The financial statements are condensed and should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the
Registrant's Form 10-KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995 , as well as the three-month transition
period ended December 31, 1995. A summary of accounting policies and other
significant information is included therein.


2.      LIABILITY RELATING TO COMPANY LEASE BANK

        The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Geokinetics Production Co., Inc.
("Production") has established a revolving credit facility (the "Lease Bank")
that receives cash deposits from private individuals and entities in order to
acquire oil and gas prospects. In exchange for such deposits, Production issues
promissory notes in principal amounts equal to the deposited cash amounts. These
notes bear a floating interest rate, currently at 12.5% per annum for the
quarter ended June 30, 1996, and are guaranteed by the Company. The Company's
liabilities indicated on the interim financial statements reflect the aggregate
principal amounts of the promissory notes payable to the private individuals and
entities that have made cash deposits with the Lease Bank.


3.      NOTES PAYABLE

        The Company's notes payable currently of $714,000 reflect, in part, (i)
the current (i.e., one year) maturities, totaling $289,000, in connection with
the Quantum loan, (ii) that certain promissory note payable to Input/Output,
Inc., dated January 8, 1996, in the principal amount of $300,000 representing
indebtedness incurred by the Company incident to its geophysical operations, and
(iii) a certain $100,000 loan from an unaffiliated lender to finance an escrow
deposit made by the Company incident to the proposed acquisition of Green
Mountain Geophysics, Inc.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

                        (Six Months Ended June 30, 1996)
GENERAL

        At June 30, 1996, the Company continues to incur various costs and
expenses related to its efforts to diversify the Company's business activities.
On March 6, 1996, the Company obtained a $5,000,000 loan from an unaffiliated
lender to finance the initial operations of Quantum Geophysical, Inc.
("Quantum"). Quantum was formed as a wholly-owned subsidiary to perform 3-D
seismic data acquisition services for the energy industry in the United States.
Seismic survey operations are not expected to commence before September 1996. In
addition, the Company has continued its efforts towards developing geoscience
technology and software development capabilities. The Company is currently
negotiating the acquisition of 80% the outstanding capital stock of Green
Mountain Geophysics, Inc., a Boulder, Colorado-based manufacturer of specialized
software for the petroleum industry. The financial requirements of the oil and
gas business as well as the start-up costs incurred in diversifying the
Company's business activities continue to require the Company to utilize a
substantial portion of its current assets and incur additional indebtedness in
order to acquire additional operating assets. As a result, the Company expects
that it will be required to raise substantial additional funds during the
remainder of fiscal 1996 from the sale of equity and/or debt securities in order
to finance the Company's operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

CLOSING OF $5,000,000 QUANTUM LOAN

        The Company's financial position at June 30, 1996 substantially reflects
the proceeds received by the Company in connection with the $5,000,000 Quantum
loan and the Company's use of such proceeds. Current assets at June 30, 1996,
totaled $1,621,376 as compared with $871,252 at December 31, 1995. Cash and
short-term investments at June 30, 1996 totaled $527,064 as compared to $16,905
at December 31, 1995. Of this amount, $513,108, reflects the proceeds from the
Quantum loan that is restricted for use in Quantum's seismic operations and is,
therefore, not available to meet the Company's working capital needs.. In
addition, the Company's property and equipment at June 30, 1996, totaled
$4,767,556, up from $897,840 at December 31, 1995. As a result of the Quantum
loan, the Company's long-term debt increased by approximately $5,000,000 to
$5,055,742 at June 30, 1996.

                                       8

OIL AND GAS OPERATIONS

        The Company (through its subsidiaries, HOC Operating Co., Inc. and
Geokinetics Production Co., Inc.) continues to conduct its oil and gas
operations consisting of acquiring, exploring, exploiting and developing oil and
gas properties. However, the oil and gas industry is a highly capital-intensive
business, especially in the initial stages of development of any venture. The
Company, therefore, requires capital principally to fund the following expenses:
(i) purchases of leases and other interests in oil and gas properties; (ii)
capital expenditures under agreements for geological, geophysical and seismic
costs as well as drilling and completion costs of wells; and (iii) general and
administrative expenses. The capital expenditures required by the Company to
establish oil and gas production are generally incurred prior to the
commencement of production revenues. As a result, the Company expects its oil
and gas operations to operate with a working capital deficiency during fiscal
1996.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        During the three months ended June 30, 1996, the Company incurred a loss
from operations of $343,899 compared to a loss of $346,247 during the comparable
period in 1995. This loss is primarily due to operating expenses the Company
incurred in connection with (i) the development of the Company's geoscience and
software development capabilities, and (ii) expenses in oil and gas operations.
General and administrative expenses during the three-months ended June 30, 1996,
increased to $493,398 compared with $325,357 during the comparable period in
1995. In addition, lease operating expenses from oil and gas operations during
the three-months ended June 30, 1996, totaled $43,274, an approximate 70%
decrease of such expenses during the comparable period in 1995.

DEFERRED TAX BENEFIT

        The Company is reporting an $800,000 asset relating to deferred tax
benefits as a result of the closing of the Quantum loan and the expected
commencement of Quantum's operations. This asset consists primarily of
differences in reporting Quantum's pre-operating costs and the amortization of
the Company's net operating losses. The value of such deferred tax benefits
reflects the amount that the Company believes to be realizable at this time. As
Quantum's operations commence and additional revenues are generated, the company
will review its valuation of deferred tax benefits and make adjustments when
necessary.

GEOSCIENCE OPERATIONS AND PRIVATE PLACEMENT

        The Company is continuing to negotiate the acquisition of 80% of the
capital stock of Green Mountain Geophysics, Inc. In order to finance this
acquisition, the Company intends to conduct a private placement of approximately
$4,000,000 - $5,000,000 in equity and debt securities (the "Green Mountain
Private Placement"). Closing of the Green Mountain acquisition is expected to
occur in August 1996, but is subject to a number of conditions, including the
completion of the Green Mountain Private Placement. Completion of the Green
Mountain Private Placement will have a substantial effect on the Company's
financial position during fiscal 1996 and beyond.
