NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 AND 1994
(Unaudited)
l. Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements included herein are
unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments,
consisting of normal recurring accruals, have been made which
are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position
of the Company at June 30, 1995 and the results of operations
and cash flows for the three month periods ended June 30, 1995
and 1994. Quarterly results are not necessarily indicative of
expected annual results because of the impact of fluctuations in
prices received for oil and natural gas and other factors.
Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform with the
current period's presentation. For a more complete understanding
of the Company's operations and financial position, reference is
made to the consolidated financial statements of the Company,
and related notes thereto, filed with the Company's annual
report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended March 31, 1995.
2. Marketable Securities
Marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale
based on management's intent. Cash proceeds and net gains from
the sale of available-for-sale securities for the three months
ended June 30, 1995 were $111,312 and $7,411 (gross gains of
$7,629 and gross losses of $218), respectively. Cash proceeds
and net gains from the sale of available-for-sale securities for
the three months ended June 30, 1994 were $257,486 and $211
(gross gains of $2,774 and gross losses of $2,563),
respectively. The net unrealized holding gain on
available-for-sale securities included as a separate component
of stockholders' equity increased by $109,493 for the three
months ended June 30, 1995.
3. Loss Per Share
The computations of loss per share are based on the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during each period.
Common stock options outstanding were not included in the
computations since their effect is anti-dilutive.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
The Company's gas royalty revenue decreased by approximately 2%
for the three months ended June 30, 1995 over the comparable
period in 1994 due primarily to a lower average sales price.
Although natural gas production increased due to the gas
processing plant commencing operations on March 30, 1995 to
process "sour gas", the average sales price for natural gas for
the three months ended June 30, 1995 was $1.29 per thousand
cubic feet compared to $1.81 for the comparable period in 1994.
The Company's oil sales decreased by approximately 7% for the
three months ended June 30, 1995 over the comparable period in
1994 due primarily to lower production levels.
The production volumes and average sales prices during the
periods were as follows:
Three Months Ended
June 30
1995 1994
Oil and condensate (barrels) 709 812
Average sales price per barrel $16.86 $15.79
Natural gas (mcf) 11,478 8,366
Average sales price per mcf $ 1.29 $ 1.81
Domestic oil prices generally follow world-wide oil prices which
are subject to price fluctuations resulting from changes in
world supply and demand. Prices received for natural gas are
also subject to price volatility. As a result, no prediction can
be made as to what price the Company will receive for its oil
and gas production in the future.
Average oil production cost per barrel was $12.21 for the three
months ended June 30, 1995 compared to $39.95 for the comparable
period in 1994. The average oil production cost per barrel was
higher in 1994 due to workover costs on three wells. The wells
within the field may require additional workover expenditures in
future periods.
The Company's royalty interests in "sour gas" production are
subject to plant processing costs (depreciation and operating
costs) and severance and ad valorem taxes. The processing
deduction attributable to an individual product (methane,
sulphur or CO2) will not exceed 90 percent of the revenue
received for that product, net of severance tax deductions. The
Company and other royalty owners are presently negotiating with
the plant operator to eliminate certain processing costs which
may not be in accordance with applicable state rules and
regulations. Production from the Company's other natural gas
royalty interests ("sweet gas") do not incur any production
costs other than severance and ad valorem taxes.
Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1995
increased approximately 3% over the comparable period in 1994
due to expenditures in connection with evaluating various
investment opportunities.
Depreciation and amortization decreased approximately 6% for the
three months ended June 30, 1995 over the comparable period in
1994 due to a reduction in property and equipment.
Interest and dividend income for the three months ended June 30,
1995 decreased approximately 20% over the comparable period in
1994 due to changes in portfolio mix and sales of marketable
securities.
Rental income decreased approximately 49% for the three months
ended June 30, 1995 over the comparable period in 1994 due to a
lessee vacating office space upon expiration of the lease.
The equity in partnership losses of $13,015 represents the
Company's share of operating losses for the three months ended
June 30, 1995 in a golf driving range, miniature golf and
batting facility. Since the facility commenced operations in
July 1994, there were no operating results for the three months
ended June 30, 1994.
Financial Condition
Net cash used in operations of $78,688 for the three months
ended June 30, 1995 was the result of a net loss of $119,239
plus non-cash net expenses of $44,885 (comprised of
depreciation and amortization, equity in partnership losses and
gain on sale of marketable securities) and a net decrease in
operating assets and liabilities of $4,334. Net cash used in
operations of $52,899 for the three months ended June 30, 1994
was the result of a net loss of $133,547 plus non-cash net
expenses of $49,177 (comprised of depreciation and amortization,
gain on sale of marketable securities and abandoned leases) and
a net increase in operating assets and liabilities of $31,471.
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities by the
Company was $(11,040) and $111,958 for the three months ended
June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. During the three months
ended June 30, 1995, the Company utilized the net cash proceeds
of $9,906 from the purchase and sale of marketable securities
for capital expenditures of $1,949 and operating activities.
During the three months ended June 30, 1994, the Company
utilized the net cash proceeds of $116,455 from the purchase and
sale of marketable securities for capital expenditures of
$5,250, the purchase of treasury stock for $12,661 and operating
activities.
The Company's material commitments for capital expenditures in
the next twelve months will be in conjunction with the
development of the real estate located in Colorado. The amount
of such commitment is not known at this time but it is expected
that any expenditures will be funded by internal sources.
The Company may make additional purchases of its common stock
from time to time. The shares repurchased are being held as
treasury shares which affords the Company greater financial
flexibility to respond to business opportunities that might
arise.
In addition to its real estate and oil and gas operations, the
Company is reviewing other business opportunities.
Management believes that the funds provided from its short-term
cash investments and marketable securities, the Company's
ability to obtain long-term financing and the availability of
the Company's common or preferred stock for issuance will
provide adequate sources of funding for any proposed future
acquisitions.
