NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The accompanying consolidated balance sheets, statement of
cash flows, and income statements have been prepared by National
Gas & Oil Company (the Company) without audit by independent
accountants. In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments
necessary for a fair presentation of its consolidated results of
operation at June 30, 1995 and 1994 have been included, and were
normal recurring adjustments. Certain reclassifications have been
made for comparative purposes.
2. Gas in underground storage under the LIFO method is determined
using calendar year-end quantities and costs. LIFO inventory is
estimated at interim periods. At June 30, 1995, gas in underground
storage which is accounted for under LIFO decreased 134,114 Mcf
from December 31, 1994, due to the seasonal nature of the Company's
business. The Company injects natural gas into underground storage
in the summer and withdraws the gas in the winter during high
demand periods. The reserve for LIFO inventory of $214,864 is the
difference between the cost to replace this temporary reduction and
the LIFO cost assigned to these volumes.

NATIONAL GAS & OIL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Consolidated Results
Operating revenues have been separated into revenues
generated from the sale and transportation of natural gas by
National Gas & Oil Corporation (National Gas) and Producers Gas
Sales, Inc. (Producers) and the sale of oil and gas produced and
purchased by NGO Development Corporation (NGO Development). The
revenues of the holding company, National Gas & Oil Company, and
other income from all subsidiaries are included under other income.
Consolidated revenue of $9,405,000 in the second quarter
of 1995 decreased by 25 percent from second quarter 1994
consolidated revenue. The major change in revenue can be
attributed to decreased residential and commercial throughput and
the decrease in gas prices. A reduction in production and
marketing activities by NGO Development between periods also
contributed to the decline.
Net income in the second quarter of 1995 amounted to
$226,000, a decrease of $211,000 from the second quarter of 1994.
Net income per common share in the second quarter of 1995
was $.03 as compared to $.07 in the second quarter of 1994. The
decrease is primarily attributed to the decrease in income
generated by the sale and transportation of natural gas and from
the oil and gas production segment.
Gas Sales and Transportation
Operating revenues associated with this segment of the
business decreased by 31 percent in the second quarter of 1995 as
compared to the second quarter of 1994 due to a decrease in the
volume of gas sold and transported and a decrease in the price of
gas sold to residential and commercial customers as a result of
declining gas prices.
Net income of the gas sales and transportation segment
during the second quarter decreased $84,000 as compared to the
second quarter of 1994. The decrease is primarily the result of
decreased throughput and higher operations and maintenance expense
between periods.
<PAGE>
Volumes of gas sold and transported to various customer
classes for the second quarter decreased 14% over the second
quarter of 1994.
Three Months Ended June 30,
Gas Throughput (Mcf) 1995 1994
Gas Sales:
Industrial 11,183 10,341
Residential 335,931 362,591
Commercial 143,209 150,451
Total Gas Sales 490,323 523,383
Transportation 1,684,757 1,998,692
Total Gas Throughput 2,175,080 2,522,075
========= =========
The decrease in purchased gas expense is the result of
the corresponding decrease in gas sales revenues. Operations and
maintenance expenditures have increased 6% during the second
quarter as compared to the second quarter of 1994 primarily due to
increased labor costs.
Oil and Gas Production
Operating revenues from the oil and gas production
segment decreased $1,189,000 in the second quarter of 1995 as
compared to the second quarter of 1994. The decrease is due
primarily to the decrease in gas prices and decreased gas marketing
activity by NGO Development. Operating expenses for this business
segment have remained relatively flat with purchased gas expense
decreasing to correspond with the decrease in gas marketing
revenue.
Net income for the period decreased $94,000 primarily due
to decreasing margins and the reduction in gas marketing activity.
General
Interest expense increased $17,000 between periods due
to higher interest rates on the variable rate portions of the
Company's long-term debt. Other income decreased $20,000 in the
second quarter of 1995 as compared to the second quarter of 1994,
primarily due to a reduction in investment income.
Federal Income Taxes
The change in federal income tax expense for the quarter
reflects the changes in taxable income for the consolidated
companies. Taxable income has decreased due to an increase in the
estimated percentage depletion between periods.
<PAGE>
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
Capital Resources
The primary sources and uses of cash during the six month
period ending June 30 are summarized in the following condensed
cash flow statement:
Sources and (Uses) of Cash
1995 1994
Provided by Operating Activities $10,923,921 $10,116,954
Capital Expenditures, net of salvage (2,789,100) (3,585,799)
Net Borrowings (4,390,483) 936,704
Common Dividends (799,378) (799,430)
Net Increase in Cash &
Cash Equivalents $ 2,944,960 $ 6,668,429
=========== ===========
Cash provided by operating activities consists of net
income and noncash items including depreciation, depletion,
amortization and deferred income taxes. Additionally, changes in
working capital are also included in cash provided by operating
activities. The Company expects that internally generated cash and
cash reserves, coupled with seasonal short-term borrowings, will
continue to be sufficient to satisfy the operating, normal capital
expenditure and dividend requirements of the Company's existing
operations in the near future.
Capital Expenditures
In the first six months of 1995 the gas sales and
transportation segment accounted for 80 percent of the total
capital expenditures. The funds were expended primarily for
expansion and upgrading of existing pipeline systems. The oil and
gas sales segment accounted for 20 percent which was primarily used
for the development and/or completion of various interest in oil
and gas wells. Capital expenditures in the first six months of
1995 have decreased due to decreased oil and gas drilling in
response to lower gas prices.
Financing and Liquidity
The Company continually assesses various alternatives for
expanding its business, including the acquisition of other business
entities.
As of June 30, 1995, the Company and its subsidiaries had
short-term lines of credit with various banks aggregating in excess
of $6,000,000, the upper limit on short-term borrowing imposed by
the Board of Directors. The terms of each borrowing under the
<PAGE>
lines of credit are negotiated at the time the funds are requested
with interest rates ranging form 6.6875% to 8.5000%. During the
first six months, the Company utilized these credit lines and as
of June 30, 1995, all short-term draws were repaid. These funds
were used primarily by National Gas to satisfy seasonal working
capital requirements. The Company anticipates that it will utilize
its credit lines for additional funds during the third and fourth
quarters of 1995.
Additionally, the Company and all of its subsidiaries,
except National Gas, have a $3 million revolving line of credit
which expires in February 1997. This committed credit line is
unsecured and may be utilized by any of the subsidiaries, except
National Gas. During 1993, NGO Development borrowed $2.55 million
against this credit line for various acquisitions and pipeline
projects. During 1994 and the first six months of 1995, $2 million
of the credit line was repaid and $550,000 remained outstanding as
of June 30, 1995.
The Company is not aware of any material events or
uncertainties which would materially limit or restrict its ability
to secure additional funds from external sources in either the debt
or equity markets.
Dividends
The Company paid cash dividends of $799,378 and $799,430
during the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
Presently, there are no restrictions on the payment of dividends,
as long as the Company is not in default of the terms in its long-
term loans. Dividend policy is established by the Company's Board
of Directors. The Board's decision takes into consideration
results of operations and retained earnings of the Company.
Effects of Inflation
All of the Company's long-term bank loans accrue interest
at a fluctuating rate equal to either the bank's prime rate or to
a rate tied to the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Because
of the fluctuating rate, the Company is exposed to increases in
interest expense should rates increase due to inflation.
During the third quarter of 1993, National Gas analyzed
the need for additional base rate increases and decided to apply
for rate increases to cover increases in operating expenses. Rate
increases over a three year period have been successfully
negotiated with all municipalities served by National Gas.
