NOTES TO THE
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
NATURE OF ORGANIZATION
Signature Geophysical Services, Inc. (the Company) is engaged in the
business of conducting 2-D and 3-D seismic surveys of oil and gas
properties, focusing on the Permian Basin and the U.S. Gulf Coast, with
special emphasis on coastal swamp work.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the
accrual basis of accounting and, accordingly, reflect all significant
receivables, payables and other liabilities.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN PREPARING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and
the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the
estimates that were used.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and
amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Repairs and
maintenance, which are not considered betterments and do not extend the
useful life of property, are charged to expense as incurred. When
property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the asset
and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the
resulting gain or loss is reflected in income.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months
or less to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents at
December 31, 1996.

NOTES TO THE
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
INCOME TAX
The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109
entitled "Accounting for Income Taxes" which requires recognition of
deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax
consequences of events that have been included in the financial
statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and
liabilities are computed using the liability method based on the
differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and
liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the
differences are expected to reverse.
Deferred income tax is provided in the accompanying financial statements
as a result of differences related to reporting of depreciation for
income tax purposes and financial statement purposes.
NOTE 2. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
A summary of property and equipment as of December 31, 1996 follows:

of the stockholders. The agreement resulted in the Company having one
stockholder owning 100% of the outstanding stock. The shares acquired by
the Company were held by the Company as treasury stock at December 31,
1996.
Consideration given for the stock included assignment of the Company's
Ohio operations, assignment of selected receivables and cash payments to

Customer C 1,000,000
NOTE 8. CONTINGENCIES
The Company was involved in litigation at December 31, 1996 with a
customer regarding amounts due a subcontractor. The customer's claims
were settled on May 6, 1997 pursuant to an agreement entered into by the
Company and customer whereby the customer receives $472,000. At December
31, 1996, $468,303 of this claim is included in the accounts payable
balance.
NOTE 9. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of unsecured trade
receivables. In the normal course of business, the Company provides
credit terms to its customers. Accordingly, the Company performs ongoing
credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for
possible losses which, when realized, have been within the range of
management's expectations.
The Company's customer base consists primarily of oil and gas companies.
Although the Company is directly affected by the well-being of the oil
and gas industry, management does not believe significant credit risk
exists at December 31, 1996.
