                  Pro Forma Financial Statement Information
ACQUISITIONS

      On April 30, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of Geophysical
Development Corporation (GDC) pursuant to the terms of a Stock Purchase
Agreement, whereby the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of
GDC in exchange for $26,000,000 in cash and 1,000,000 newly-issued shares of the
Company's common stock. GDC is engaged in the business of providing seismic data
processing, software and consultation services to the oil and gas industry.

      The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase and the results of
operations of GDC have been included in the consolidated financial statements
from the date of acquisition, April 30, 1998. The following represents the
unaudited pro forma results of operations as if the acquisition had occurred at
the beginning of the second quarter, and therefore includes the results of
operations of GDC during the period April 1, 1998 through April 30, 1998. In
addition to combining the historical results of operations of the two companies,
the pro forma calculations include amortization of goodwill. Excess of cost over
the fair value of the assets acquired of $27,967,807 is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over 10 years.

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

GENERAL

      At June 30, 1998, the Company's financial position reflects (i) the
seismic acquisition services being conducted by Quantum Geophysical, Inc.,
Signature Geophysical Services, Inc. and Reliable Exploration, Inc., (ii) the
seismic data processing, software and consultation services being provided by
Geophysical Development Corporation, and (iii) the Company's ongoing oil and gas
operations. On April 30, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of
the issued and outstanding capital stock of GDC, a Houston, Texas based provider
of seismic data processing, software and consultation services.

      At June 30, 1998, the Company was operating four seismic acquisition
crews, consisting of two Input/Output, Inc. System Two's and two Texas
Instruments DFSV crews, with a total seismic recording capacity of approximately
7,200 channels. All of the Company's crews are operating in the United States,
with one performing seismic acquisition services in the Gulf Coast region and
three performing such services in the Rocky Mountain region. A fifth seismic
acquisition crew, consisting of Input/Output RSR equipment with recording
capacity of 3,000 channels, will begin operations during the third quarter of
1998. It is anticipated that this crew will initially be deployed in the Rocky
Mountain region of the United States.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1998 were $8,410,898 as
compared to $84,970 for the three months ended June 30, 1997. This increase is
attributable to revenues generated by the Company's seismic acquisition
operations and revenues attributable to its recently acquired seismic data
processing operations. Neither of these lines of business were operational
during the three months ended June 30, 1997. Revenues generated by these
operations for the three months totaled $8,296,031.

      Operating expenses for the three month period increased from $54,925 in
1997 to $4,395,492 in 1998. This increase is directly attributable to the
Company's seismic acquisition operations and newly acquired seismic data
processing operations. These operations generated operating expenses of
$3,689,509 and $636,209 respectively during the three months ended June 30,
1998. Operating expense as a percentage of revenues was 52% during the period
ended June 30, 1998.

      General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30,
1998 totaled $1,244,315 as compared to $280,956 for the three months ended June
30, 1997. This increase is due primarily to increased activity in the Company's
seismic acquisition operations and expenses related to the Company's recently
acquired seismic data processing business.

<PAGE>
      Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30,
1998 was $1,612,784 as compared to $20,035 for the period ended June 30, 1997.
This increase is due to depreciation associated with the Company's seismic
acquisition equipment and amortization of goodwill generated by the Company's
recent acquisitions. In the same period ending in 1997, depreciation and
amortization expense only applied to the Company's oil and gas operations.

      Interest expense (net of interest income) for the three months ended June
30, 1998 was $1,194,840 as compared to $174,821 for the period ended June 30,
1997. This increase is a result of additional equipment financing required for
the growth of the Company's seismic acquisition operations and the Company's
closing of a $40,000,000 12% senior subordinated debt financing, due 2005,
during the three month period ending June 30, 1998. The proceeds from this
financing were utilized by the Company to acquire GDC and purchase additional
seismic acquisition equipment which will allow the Company to field a fifth
seismic crew.

      The Company had a net loss of $36,522, or ($0.002) per share, for the
three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to a net loss of $445,767, or
($0.09) per share for the three month period ended June 30, 1997, resulting
primarily from increased revenues as discussed above.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On April 30, 1998, the Company completed a private offering of $40,000,000 of
seven year 12% senior subordinated notes with an investment group led by DLJ
Investment Partners, L.P., an affiliate of Donaldson Lufkin and Jenrette
Securities Corporation. Additionally, the Company (i) granted warrants to the
note purchasers entitling them to purchase up to an aggregate of 7,618,594
shares of common stock at a price of $2.00 per share, (ii) caused certain of its
wholly owned subsidiaries to execute guarantees of the notes pursuant to an
indenture executed by the company and (iii) granted certain registration rights
in favor of the note holders. The notes call for semi-annual interest payments
with principal due at maturity.

      At June 30, 1998, the Company had working capital of $2,018,016, which
includes the current portion of long-term debt of $4,201,775. At June 30, 1997
the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,312,803.

      The seismic acquisition industry is capital intensive and the Company will
need to raise additional capital to implement its business stategy. The cost of
sophisticated seismic acquisition equipment has increased significantly over the
last several year. The Company's ability to expand its business operations is
dependent upon the availability of internally generated cash flow and external
financing activities. Such financing may consist of bank or commercial debt,
forward sales of production, equity or debt securities or any combination
thereof. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in
obtaining additional financing when required. Any substantial alteration or
increase in the Company's capitalization through the issuance of debt or equity
securities or otherwise may significantly decrease the financial flexibility of
the Company. Due to uncertainties regarding the changing market for seismic
services, technological changes, and other matters associated with the Company's
operations, the Company is unable to estimate the amount

<PAGE>
of any financing that it may need to acquire, upgrade and maintain seismic
equipment and continue it diversification as a full-scale geotechnology
enterprise. If the Company is unable to obtain such financing when needed, it
will be forced to curtail its business objectives, and to finance its business
activities with only such internally generated funds as may then be available.

      On June 30, 1998, the Company had cash balances of $6,603,602. The Company
feels this cash and the anticipated cash flow from its seismic acquisition and
data processing operations are sufficient to meet the working capital
requirements of its seismic acquisition and date processing operations for the
foreseeable future.


ITEM 5.  OTHER INFORMATION

      The Company conducts field operations in states under whose statutes
certain of the services provided by the Company may be subject to state sales
tax. The Company's financial statements currently reflect a liability of
$142,734 for such taxes arising from prior operations of a subsidiary. The
Company is currently evaluating whether the liability presently recorded
sufficiently reflects the ultimate liability resulting from these state sales
taxes and whether the former owners of the subsidiary are responsible for such
taxes.
