                ENSERCH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
            Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements




1. Effective with the second quarter of 1995, the pipeline and gas marketing
   operations, formerly reported under the Natural Gas Transmission and
   Distribution segment, and the gas processing operations, formerly reported
   separately as the Natural Gas Liquids Processing segment, have been
   combined to form the Natural Gas Pipeline & Gathering, Processing and
   Marketing (GPM) business segment.  Distribution utility operations have
   been reported as the Natural Gas Distribution segment.  Prior-period
   results have been restated to reflect this realignment of business
   segments.

2. On June 8, 1995, the Corporation, through its subsidiary, Enserch
   Exploration, Inc. (EEX), acquired all the capital stock of DALEN
   Corporation for cash of $340 million and refinanced DALEN's bank debt of
   $115 million.  The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase.  The
   acquired assets, consisting principally of gas and oil properties, and the
   liabilities assumed are being evaluated for purposes of assigning the
   purchase price.  It is anticipated that essentially all of the valuation
   adjustments will be assigned to gas and oil properties.

   EEX borrowed $350 million under a four-year revolving credit agreement (at
   an interest rate based on LIBOR) to pay the purchase price and reduce
   advances from ENSERCH by $10 million.  In addition, EEX borrowed $150
   million under a bridge loan to repay DALEN's bank debt of $115 million and
   reduce advances from ENSERCH by $35 million.  A registration statement for
   a planned offering of approximately 20 million shares of EEX common stock
   has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The borrowing
   under the revolving credit agreement will be reduced with the proceeds
   from the offering.  Accordingly, $300 million of the borrowing under the
   revolving credit agreement has been classified as a current liability.
   The bridge loan was repaid on August 4, 1995 with the proceeds from a $150
   million preferred stock offering by a subsidiary of EEX.  Accordingly, the
   $150 million bridge loan has been classified as minority interest on the
   balance sheet.

   Following is a summary of pro forma results of operations of the
   Corporation assuming the DALEN acquisition had occurred at the beginning
   of the periods presented:

3. On June 29, 1995, ENSERCH purchased the principal operating assets of
   Sunrise Energy Services, Inc. and subsidiaries (Sunrise), a nonregulated
   marketer of natural gas, for approximately $8.2 million in cash, including
   $7.5 million of cost in excess of net assets acquired that will be
   amortized on the straight-line method over twenty years.  The acquired
   Sunrise operations had revenues of approximately $76 million and $144
   million for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
   Some $11 million of the period-to-period decrease in revenues relates to
   the decline in natural-gas prices, and the remainder relates principally
   to activities that Sunrise did not conduct in the 1995 period.  Operating
   results of the Sunrise operations for these periods were not significant.
   The operations acquired do not constitute a significant acquisition;
   therefore, pro forma information is not presented.

4. Effective June 30, 1995, the Corporation exchanged 1,204,098 shares of
   ENSERCH common stock for 100% of the outstanding shares of DGS Holdings
   Corp. (DGS), which through its subsidiary is a major marketer of natural
   gas and natural-gas services.  The pooling-of-interests method is being
   used to account for the transaction.  Accordingly, the Corporation's
   financial statements have been restated for all periods presented to
   include the results of DGS in the Natural Gas Pipeline & GPM segment.
   DGS's net income for the 1995 and 1994 periods was impacted by significant
   financing expenses that will not be incurred under ENSERCH ownership.
   DGS's 1994 results reflect significant severance, relocation and other
   costs relating to an acquisition at yearend 1993 and subsequent
   reorganization.  Synergies will be realized by combining offices of DGS,
   Sunrise and Enserch Gas Company.  Revenues and net income of the separate
   companies for the periods preceding the acquisition were as follows (in
   thousands):

5. At June 30, 1995, based on a preliminary allocation of the DALEN purchase
   price, ENSERCH's full cost ceiling amount attributable to the properties
   acquired was approximately $42 million ($27 million after tax) less than
   the unamortized cost of producing properties acquired.  ENSERCH believes
   that the DALEN properties have significant exploration and development
   potential.  ENSERCH expects to be able to utilize its expertise,
   particularly with respect to tight sands reservoirs, to enhance production
   and cash flows from these properties because of the geologic similarity
   and proximity of DALEN's major producing properties to ENSERCH's
   properties.  ENSERCH believes that the unamortized cost of the gas and oil
   properties acquired in the DALEN acquisition is recoverable from future
   production and was not in fact impaired at June 30, 1995.  Accordingly,
   ENSERCH did not recognize a charge to earnings at June 30, 1995; however,
   if an excess exists after a year of operation, a write-off may be
   required.

   At June 30, 1995, because of recent significant declines in natural-gas
   prices, ENSERCH's full cost ceiling amount (exclusive of the DALEN
   acquisition) was approximately $55 million ($36 million after tax) less
   than the recorded cost of its gas and oil properties.  ENSERCH's gas and
   oil operations are conducted by EEX, which has filed a registration
   statement for the sale to the public of approximately 20 million shares of
   its common stock.  The current market price and the offering price of EEX
   shares expected by ENSERCH are substantially in excess of ENSERCH's cost
   basis.  The EEX current share price supports that the economic value of
   the properties exceeds the recorded cost of ENSERCH's gas and oil
   properties.  After accounting for the effects of the EEX common stock
   offering, the carrying value of ENSERCH's gas and oil properties as of
   June 30, 1995 will not exceed its full cost ceiling amount and,
   accordingly, the properties were not in fact impaired at that date.
   Therefore,  ENSERCH  did  not  recognize  a  charge  to earnings at June
   30, 1995.

6. Earnings per share applicable to common stock are based on the weighted
   average number of common shares outstanding during the periods, including
   common equivalent shares when dilutive.  Fully diluted earnings per share
   are not presented since the assumed exercise of stock options and
   conversion of debentures would not be dilutive.

7. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal
   recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
   operations for the interim periods included herein have been made.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT


ENSERCH Corporation:

    We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of
ENSERCH Corporation and subsidiary companies as of June 30, 1995, and the
related condensed statements of consolidated income for the three months and
six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, and the condensed statements of
consolidated cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation's
management.  The consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect to
the combination of ENSERCH Corporation and DGS Holdings Corp. which has been
accounted for as a pooling-of-interests as described in Note 4 of the Notes
to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

    We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical review
procedures to financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for
financial and accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an
audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective
of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements
taken as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

    Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to such condensed consolidated financial statements for them
to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

    We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet of ENSERCH Corporation and
subsidiary companies as of December 31, 1994, and the related consolidated
statements of income, cash flows and common shareholders' equity for the year
then ended prior to restatement for the combination described in Note 4 of the
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (not presented herein);
and in our report dated February 10, 1995, we expressed an unqualified opinion
on those consolidated financial statements.  We also audited the adjustments
that were applied to restate the December 31, 1994 consolidated balance sheet
of ENSERCH Corporation and subsidiary companies.  In our opinion, such
adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied and the information
set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of
December 31, 1994, is fairly stated in all material respects, in relation to
the restated consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2.                          Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                              Financial Condition and Results of Operations


CONSOLIDATED RESULTS - ENSERCH had a 1995 second-quarter loss applicable to
common stock of $17.6 million ($.26 per share), compared with a loss of
$14.3 million ($.21 per share) for the second quarter of 1994.  The operating
loss for the 1995 second quarter was $3.9 million, compared with an operating
loss of $.8 million for the year-ago quarter.  The increased loss for the
second quarter of 1995 was attributable to natural-gas prices being $.36 per
thousand cubic feet (Mcf), or 17%, below the 1994 second quarter, which
reduced operating income of the natural gas and oil exploration and production
segment by $10.9 million.  Results for other segments of ENSERCH's natural-gas
operations were improved.

For the first six months of 1995, earnings applicable to common stock were
$10.2 million ($.15 per share), compared with $18.8 million ($.28 per share)
for the like period in 1994.  Income from continuing operations was
$16.4 million versus $23.3 million for the same period of 1994.  Operating
income for the first half of 1995 was $64 million versus $70 million for the
year-ago period on slightly lower revenues.  Compared with the year-earlier
period, the six months results reflect a 9% reduction in heating weather and
a 12% decline in natural-gas prices.  Interest expense for the first six
months of 1995 of $37 million was $3.2 million, or 10%, above the year-ago
period due to a temporarily higher debt level primarily associated with
business acquisitions in June 1995.

On June 8, 1995, ENSERCH, through its subsidiary Enserch Exploration, Inc.
(EEX), acquired for cash all of the capital stock of DALEN Corporation
(DALEN).  The acquisition of DALEN achieves the goals of increasing reserves
and lowering average reserve life.  On June 29, 1995, ENSERCH purchased the
principal operating assets of Sunrise Energy Services, Inc. and subsidiaries
(Sunrise), a nonregulated marketer of natural gas.  Effective June 30, 1995,
ENSERCH exchanged 1,204,098 shares of its common stock for all of the common
stock of DGS Holdings Corp. (DGS).  DGS, through its subsidiary, is a major
marketer of natural gas and natural-gas services.  The DGS and Sunrise
acquisitions expand ENSERCH's energy services capabilities in trading and
other services and broaden its marketing relationships into new areas on the
West Coast and in the Midwest and Northeast.  The "purchase" method was used
to account for the DALEN and Sunrise acquisitions; therefore, consolidated
results include results of operations for these businesses from the date of
acquisition.  The "pooling of interests" method was used to account for the
DGS transaction, and consolidated results for all periods presented have been
restated to include the results of DGS.

Effective with the second quarter of 1995, ENSERCH operations have been
realigned for segment of business reporting.  The pipeline and gas marketing
operations, formerly reported with the Natural Gas Transmission and
Distribution segment, and the gas processing operations, formerly reported
separately as the Natural Gas Liquids Processing segment, have been combined
to form the Natural Gas Pipeline & Gathering, Processing and Marketing (GPM)
business segment.  Distribution utility operations have been reported as the
Natural Gas Distribution business segment.  In the discussions that follow,
all prior-period results have been reclassified to reflect the new alignments.

NATURAL GAS AND OIL EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION - The 1995 second-quarter
operating loss for Exploration and Production operations was $4.3 million,
compared with income of $6.6 million for the year-earlier quarter, with the
lower results principally attributable to a sharp decline in natural-gas
prices.  DALEN operations, which have been included from the date of
acquisition, added operating income of $.1 million, after a $1.0 million
charge for severance costs related to the acquisition.

Second-quarter 1995 revenues totaled $48 million, including $10.6 million from
DALEN, compared with $44 million in the 1994 second quarter.  Natural-gas
revenues for the second quarter of 1995 of $35 million, including $7.5 million
from DALEN, were $.8 million below the second quarter of 1994.  Natural-gas
sales volumes for the second quarter of 1995 of 20.1 billion cubic feet (Bcf),
including DALEN sales of 4.6 Bcf, were up 3.1 Bcf, or 18%, from the second
quarter of last year.  However, the average price of natural gas declined 17%
from the second quarter last year to $1.75 per Mcf.  Oil revenues for the 1995
second quarter of $11.7 million, including revenues from DALEN of $2.8
million, were $3.6 million greater than in the 1994 second quarter.  The
average price received for oil increased 10% from the second quarter last year
to $17.12 per barrel, and sales volumes of 685 thousand barrels were 31%
higher than in the year-ago quarter, entirely due to DALEN production.
ENSERCH uses gas and oil swaps, collars and futures agreements to hedge
volatile product prices for a portion (normally 30 to 70 percent) of
anticipated future gas and oil production.  Hedges increased natural-gas
revenues by $1.1 million in the second quarter of 1995 versus $.5 million in
the 1994 second quarter.  Hedges reduced 1995 and 1994 second-quarter oil
revenues by $.5 million and $.4 million, respectively.

Operating expenses for the 1995 second quarter were $52 million, compared with
$38 million in the second-quarter of 1994.  The 1995 second quarter reflects
DALEN expenses of $10.5 million, including the $1.0 million charge for
severance costs related to the acquisition.  The remaining $4 million variance
was principally due to higher maintenance costs in 1995 and non-recurring
credits of $2.0 million associated with litigation accruals recorded in the
second quarter of last year.

For the first six months of 1995, Exploration and Production operations had
an operating loss of $4 million versus income of $16 million for the same
period a year-ago.  Revenues for the first half of 1995 of $90 million were
$5.6 million, or 6%, less than in the same period of 1994.  Natural-gas
revenues of $67 million were down $11.4 million, or 15%, from the 1994 period,
with the average sales price declining 12% and sales volumes, including DALEN
production, 3% lower.  Hedges increased natural-gas revenues for the 1995
year-to-date period by $4.1 million, compared with $.5 million in the 1994
period.  Oil revenues for the first half of 1995 increased 31%, with the
average sales price of $16.98 per barrel up 12% and sales volumes of
1.2 million barrels (MMBbls) some 18% higher, principally due to volumes
contributed by DALEN.  Hedges reduced oil revenues for the first six months
of 1995 by $.6 million but added $.3 million in the 1994 period.  Operating
expenses for the year-to-date period were $14.6 million higher than in the
1994 period, including the $10.5 million attributable to DALEN.  Expenses for
the year-earlier period benefited from non-recurring credits of $2.0 million

                                          -9-

associated with litigation accruals, and maintenance expenses were higher
than in the 1995 period.

In April 1995, a Mobil Corporation (Mobil) affiliate exercised its option to
acquire a 40% working interest in EEX's Garden Banks project.  In May 1995,
another affiliate of Mobil signed a letter of intent to purchase a 40%
interest in EEX's Green Canyon project.  An affiliate of Reading & Bates Corp.
had previously signed a letter of intent to purchase a 20% interest in the
project.  These transactions are expected to be completed in the third quarter
of 1995, after which EEX will own a 60% working interest in the Garden Banks
project and a 40% working interest in the Green Canyon project and will remain
the operator of both projects.  These transactions are expected to provide
cash of approximately $31 million in the third quarter of 1995.  EEX also
expects to receive an interest in a gas and oil property and future work
commitments on the Garden Banks and Green Canyon projects.  In addition, EEX
will be relieved of capital and operating lease obligations of approximately
$140 million on the Garden Banks project, as well as a portion of future
capital expenditure requirements on the Garden Banks and Green Canyon
projects.

Operating results for 1995 are expected to be affected by the third-quarter
commencement of production from the Garden Banks project.  Revenues from the
initial production of the two existing wells may not be sufficient to cover
operating costs, amortization and the equipment lease costs on the floating
production platform and related facilities.  Some operating costs and
amortization vary with production, but other costs and the equipment lease
costs are essentially fixed and decline on a per unit basis as production
increases.  Operating results are expected to improve in 1996 as production
begins from several additional development wells in the Garden Banks project,
and as the related equipment lease and other fixed costs are spread over
greater production.

The assets acquired in the DALEN acquisition, consisting principally of gas
and oil properties, and the liabilities assumed are being evaluated for
purposes of assigning the purchase price.  It is anticipated that essentially
all of the valuation adjustments will be assigned to gas and oil properties.
At June 30, 1995, based on a preliminary allocation of the DALEN purchase
price, ENSERCH's full cost ceiling amount attributable to the properties
acquired was approximately $42 million ($27 million after tax) less than the
unamortized cost of producing properties acquired.  ENSERCH believes the DALEN
properties have significant exploration and development potential.  ENSERCH
expects to be able to utilize its expertise, particularly with respect to
tight sands reservoirs, to enhance production and cash flows from these
properties because of the geologic similarity and proximity of DALEN's major
producing properties to ENSERCH's properties.  ENSERCH believes that the
unamortized cost of the gas and oil properties acquired in the DALEN
acquisition is recoverable from future production and was not in fact impaired
at June 30, 1995.  Accordingly, ENSERCH did not recognize a charge to earnings
at June 30, 1995; however, if an excess exists after a year of operation, a
write-off may be required.

At June 30, 1995, because of recent significant declines in natural-gas
prices, ENSERCH's full cost ceiling amount (exclusive of the DALEN
acquisition) was approximately $55 million ($36 million after tax) less than

                                        -10-

<PAGE>

the recorded cost of its gas and oil properties.  ENSERCH's gas and oil
operations are conducted by EEX, which has filed a registration statement for
the sale to the public of approximately 20 million shares of its common stock.
The current market price and the offering price of EEX shares expected by
ENSERCH are substantially in excess of ENSERCH's cost basis.  The EEX current
share price supports that the economic value of the properties exceeds the
recorded cost of ENSERCH's gas and oil properties.  After accounting for the
effects of the EEX common stock offering, the carrying value of ENSERCH's gas
and oil properties as of June 30, 1995 will not exceed its full cost ceiling
amount and, accordingly, the properties were not in fact impaired at that
date.  Therefore, ENSERCH did not recognize a charge to earnings at June 30,
1995.  However, product prices are subject to seasonal and other fluctuations.
A decline in prices from June 1995 levels or other factors, without mitigating
circumstances, could cause a future write-down of capitalized costs and a non-
cash charge against income.

ENSERCH's estimated net proved reserves at June 30, 1995, giving effect to the
DALEN acquisition, the sale of a 60% interest in the Green Canyon project and
the sale of a 40% interest in the Garden Banks project, are as follows:

NATURAL GAS PIPELINE & GPM - Second-quarter 1995 operating income for the
Natural Gas Pipeline & GPM segment was $1.5 million, compared with a loss of
$.7 million in the second quarter of 1994.  Improvements in pipeline and gas
processing operations were partially offset by lower income from gas
marketing activities.  For the first six months of 1995, operating income for
this business segment was $36 million, compared with $31 million in the year-
ago period, with most of the improvement from gas processing operations.

Pipeline operations had a 1995 second-quarter loss of $.2 million, compared
with a loss of $2.8 million in the 1994 second quarter.  Second-quarter
revenues of $28.4 million were $.9 million (3%) higher than in the second
quarter last year.  Also, unrecovered gas-purchase costs were $2.0 million
lower than in the 1994 period; these costs fluctuate from period to period
due to various factors, including temperature extremes, metering variances
and billing estimates.  Pipeline throughput for the 1995 second quarter of
133 Bcf was up 2% from the same period of 1994.  For the first half of 1995,
operating income for pipeline operations was $30 million, slightly better
than in the like period a year ago.  Revenues for the year-to-date period
were $4.9 million (6%) lower than in the 1994 period, and operating expenses
were up $1.2 million (3%) from the year-earlier period.  However, unrecovered
gas-purchase costs were $6.8 million less than the same period of 1994.
Pipeline throughput for the first half of 1995 of 286 Bcf was 6% less than in
the year-ago period.

Second-quarter 1995 operating income from natural gas marketing operations
was $.1 million versus $2.5 million in the 1994 second-quarter, with the
lower results entirely attributable to a decline in gas sales margin.  The
volume of gas sold for the second quarter of 106 Bcf was 2% higher than in
the second quarter last year.  For the first six months of 1995, gas
marketing operations had operating income of $3.8 million, about the same as
in the 1994 period, with the margin on gas sales slightly lower than in the
1994 period.  Gas sales volumes for the first half of 1995 were 214 Bcf, 6%
higher than in the year-earlier period.  For the first six months of 1995,
DGS contributed operating income of $1.0 million versus $.3 million for the
same period in 1994.

Natural gas processing activities contributed second-quarter 1995 operating
income of $1.6 million, compared with last year's second-quarter loss of
$.4 million, reflecting higher prices and sales volumes for natural gas
liquids processed and lower operating expenses.  The average sales price per
barrel for the second quarter of 1995 of $11.85 was up 5% from the 1994
second quarter, and sales volumes of 1.6 MMBbls barrels were 21% higher than
in the second quarter of 1994, primarily due to diverting product volumes to
inventory in the second quarter last year.  Operating expenses for the 1995
second quarter were below the 1994 period, principally because several
processing plants became fully depreciated at the end of 1994.  During the
first half of 1995, natural gas processing operations had operating income of
$2.5 million versus a loss of $1.4 million for the year-earlier period, with
sales volumes up 5%, the average sales price 9% higher and depreciation
expense lower, as noted above.

At June 30, 1995, Lone Star Pipeline Company had an unrecovered balance of
gas-purchase contract settlements of $40 million, including $24 million that

                                         -12-

<PAGE>

represented prepayments expected to be recouped under contracts covering
future gas purchases.  The remaining $16 million represented amounts to be
recovered from customers under existing gas-cost recovery provisions.  At
June 30, 1995, outstanding supplier claims approximated $10 million.  Lone
Star Pipeline Company expects to recoup or recover the remaining balances of
gas settlement payments made to date, as well as any future payments made in
settlement of remaining claims.

NATURAL GAS DISTRIBUTION - Second-quarter 1995 operating income for Natural
Gas Distribution operations was $1.5 million, compared with a loss of
$5.3 million in the 1994 second quarter, reflecting an improved margin on
residential and commercial gas sales and cost reductions.  The overall margin
on gas sales increased $2.1 million, or 5%, and operating expenses were
$4.9 million, or 9%, less than the second quarter of 1994, primarily due to
re-engineering efforts in prior years.  The total volume of gas sold in the
second quarter of 1995 of 22.6 Bcf was slightly above the second quarter of
1994, with higher-margin residential and commercial gas sales volumes of
18.8 Bcf up 3% from the 1994 second quarter and sales volumes to industrial
and electric generation customers virtually the same as the year-ago quarter.

Operating income for the first half of 1995 was $36 million versus
$27 million for the year-earlier period.  The improved results reflect a
slight increase in margin on residential and commercial gas sales and a
$7.3 million, or 6%, reduction in operating expenses principally resulting
from re-engineering efforts in prior years, with more than half of the
decrease in expenses attributable to lower compensation and employee benefit
costs.  Total gas sales volumes of 84.1 Bcf were down 6% from the like period
of 1994.  Residential and commercial sales volumes of 73.2 Bcf declined 5%
from the year-earlier period, with heating degree days some 9% lower than in
the 1994 period and 17% below normal.

POWER - Power activities, comprised of Enserch Development Corporation (EDC)
and Lone Star Energy Company, had a 1995 second-quarter loss of $.8 million,
compared with income of $.8 million for the same period a year ago.  Results
for the 1994 second quarter included certain non-recurring income associated
with operating the 160-megawatt cogeneration plant in Bellingham, Washington,
a project developed by EDC.  First half 1995 operating income was below the
1994 period for the reason noted.

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL RESOURCES - Operating activities of continuing
operations for the first six months of 1995 provided net cash flows of
$171 million, a significant improvement from the $66 million provided in the
first half of 1994, which reflected a $62 million payment relating to an
adverse judgment in litigation in 1993.  Changes in other assets and
liabilities resulted in a year-to-year improvement in cash flows of
$37 million.  Also, there was $43 million provided by a reduction in current
operating assets and liabilities in 1995 versus $29 million provided in 1994,
exclusive of the litigation payment.  The $39 million provided by a decrease
in other current assets included a $24 million recovery of expenditures on
the Garden Banks project from the increase in the leasing program and the
collection of $10 million of previously deferred billings on the Bellingham,
Washington cogeneration facilities developed by EDC.

Investing activities required net cash flows of $505 million, including
$333 million for the DALEN acquisition and $8 million for the Sunrise
acquisition, compared with $225 million in the year-ago period.  Discontinued
operations provided cash of $8 million in the first half of 1995 versus a
requirement of $90 million in the same period of 1994.

Planned property, plant and equipment additions for 1995 are expected to
total $277 million and include $175 million designated for Natural Gas and
Oil Exploration and Production, $40 million for Natural Gas Pipeline & GPM,
$61 million for Natural Gas Distribution and $1 million for other
requirements.  The estimated expenditures are $15 million higher than the
originally planned expenditures of $262 million, reflecting a $39 million
reduction in the originally planned expenditures for the Natural Gas and Oil
Exploration and Production segment because of low natural-gas prices and a
$54 million addition for the 1995 exploration and development of DALEN
properties following the acquisition.  The expenditures are expected to be
funded from internal cash flow, plus external financings as required.  Costs
of the floating production platform and related facilities for the Garden
Banks project, which are financed by an operating lease arrangement, are not
included.  During the first quarter of 1995, the lease arrangement for the
Garden Banks facilities was increased to $350 million to cover design
modifications and other costs for Block 388 facilities and for Block 387
facilities.  ENSERCH's obligation is expected to be reduced to $210 million
following the completion of the transaction with the Mobil affiliate.

On June 8, 1995, EEX borrowed $350 million under a four-year revolving credit
agreement and $150 million under a bridge loan to pay the purchase price of
$340 million for the capital stock of DALEN, repay DALEN's bank debt of
$115 million and reduce advances from ENSERCH by $45 million.  A registration
statement for a planned offering of approximately 20 million shares of EEX
common stock has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The
borrowing under the revolving credit agreement will be reduced with the
proceeds from the offering.  Accordingly, $300 million of the borrowing under
the revolving credit agreement has been classified as a current liability.
The EEX common stock issue, expected to be completed in the third quarter,
will increase the public ownership in EEX from less than 1% to approximately
17%.  The bridge loan was repaid on August 4, 1995 with the proceeds from a
$150 million preferred stock offering by a subsidiary of EEX.  Accordingly,
the $150 million bridge loan has been classified as minority interest on the
balance sheet.

Also in June 1995, ENSERCH issued $150 million of 7 1/8% Notes due 2005, with
the proceeds used to prepay a variable rate note due in 1998.

Consolidated senior long-term and convertible debt, including current
maturities, as a percentage of total capitalization was 52.0% at June 30,
1995.  The pro forma June 30, 1995 debt ratio, adjusted for the effects of
the planned offering of EEX common stock, was 38.6%, compared with 47.2% at
the end of 1994.  EEX has a $350 million four-year revolving credit agreement
noted above.  In addition, ENSERCH Corporation has bank lines in the form of
a three-year revolving agreement totaling $600 million, which were all unused
at June 30, 1995.
