                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                  (Unaudited)


Note A - Presentation of Financial Statements

       In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements, which have not been audited by independent accountants (except for
the consolidated balance sheet as of July 31, 1993), reflect all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly
the Company's consolidated financial position as of January 31, 1994, the
consolidated results of operations for the three months and six months ended
January 31, 1994 and 1993, and consolidated cash flows for the six months ended
January 31, 1994 and 1993.

       Certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted.
Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 1993.

       References herein to the "Company" are for convenience of presentation
and may include obligations, commitments or contingencies that pertain solely
to one or more affiliates of the Company.  Results of operations for the first
six months of fiscal 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year.

Note B - Contingencies

       In July 1993, the United States Department of Justice ("DOJ"), acting on
behalf of the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA"), filed a complaint in the
United States District Court for the District of New Mexico alleging that the
Company's subsidiary, Navajo Refining Company, beginning in September 1990 and
continuing through the present, had violated and continues to violate the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA") and implementing regulations of
the EPA by treating, storing and disposing of certain hazardous wastes without
compliance with regulatory requirements.  The complaint seeks a court order
directing Navajo to comply with certain regulatory standards and civil
penalties for the alleged non-compliance.

       As previously disclosed, net income for the 1993 fiscal year included a
pre-tax reserve of $2 million in connection with this matter.  The Company has
been and continues to be involved in  settlement discussions with the EPA and
the DOJ (collectively, the "plaintiff").  The plaintiff has been presented with
and is presently considering a settlement proposal that, if implemented, would
resolve a substantial portion of the litigation.

       As has been the case since the outset of this matter, the Company is
optimistic that a negotiated resolution will be achieved.  Nonetheless, it is
not presently determinable whether this matter's ultimate resolution will occur
through settlement or litigation.  In either case, phased closure of all four
ponds in Navajo's wastewater treatment system may be required, with the
resulting costs of closure and of developing an alternative means of treating
and disposing of the refinery's wastewater.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)

       In this regard, after consultation with counsel and engineering
consultants, the Company estimates closure costs for all of the ponds could be
between $3.5 and $9 million and development of additional treatment and
alternative disposal could cost an additional $2 to $7 million.  These
estimates do not include the cost of any possible civil penalty, the amount of
which cannot be presently ascertained.

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

       Financial Condition

       Cash flows from operations during the six months ended January 31, 1994
were slightly less than capital expenditures and dividends paid, resulting in a
net decrease of cash and cash equivalents of $1.1 million.  Working capital
increased during the six months by $5.9 million to $18.1 million at January 31,
1994.  The Company's capital structure continues to improve as long-term debt
now represents 57.9% of total capitalization as compared to 63.3% at July 31,
1993.  Additionally, the Company had $25 million of borrowing capacity under
the Credit Agreement at January 31, 1994, which can be used for short term
working capital needs.  The Company believes that these sources of funds,
together with future cash flows from operations, should provide sufficient
resources, financial strength and flexibility for the Company to satisfy its
liquidity needs, capital requirements, and debt service obligation and to
permit the payment of dividends for at least the next few years.

       Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to $13.1 million in
the first six months of fiscal 1994, as compared to $6.1 million in the same
period of the prior year.  The principal reason for the increase in cash
provided from operations was the improvement in earnings, which was partially
offset by changes in working capital accounts.

       Cash flows used for investing activities were $13.0 million in the first
six months of fiscal 1994, as compared to $8.7 million in the same period of
the prior year, all of which amounts were for capital expenditures in both
periods.  Fiscal 1994 capital expenditures are projected to total $24 million,
of which expenditures of $13 million are for carry-over projects from the prior
year, principally for a diesel desulfurization unit at the Montana refinery and
for asphalt tankage in Phoenix, Arizona.  The Company has adopted capital
budgets totalling $11 million for fiscal 1994, of which $8 million is
principally for refinery projects at the New Mexico refinery and the balance of
which is for oil and gas exploration.  In order to meet the October 1993 lower
sulphur content requirements for diesel fuel, diesel desulfurization units were
completed at both the Artesia, New Mexico facility in August 1993 and at the
Montana refinery in October 1993.  While it is not possible to anticipate fully
what future regulatory requirements may require, the Company believes that
capital expenditures in the near future should be lower than expenditures
incurred in the past few years.

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

       Cash flows used for financing activities amounted to $1.2 million in the
first six months of fiscal 1994, as compared to cash flows provided by
financing activities of $4.9 million in the same period of the prior year.  The
Company had $10.5 million of borrowings outstanding under its Credit Agreement
as of July 31, 1992 and borrowed $6.1 million during the six months ended
January 31, 1993, the full balance of which was paid off during the third and
fourth quarters of fiscal 1993.  The first principal payment of $5.6 million on
the Senior Notes is due in June 1994.

       In July 1993, the United States Department of Justice ("DOJ"), acting on
behalf of the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA"), filed a complaint in the
United States District Court for the District of New Mexico alleging that the
Company's subsidiary, Navajo Refining Company, beginning in September 1990 and
continuing through the present, had violated and continues to violate the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ("RCRA") and implementing regulations of
the EPA by treating, storing and disposing of certain hazardous wastes without
compliance with regulatory requirements.  The complaint seeks a court order
directing Navajo to comply with certain regulatory standards and civil
penalties for the alleged non-compliance.

       As previously disclosed, net income for the 1993 fiscal year included a
pre-tax reserve of $2 million in connection with this matter.  The Company has
continued previously disclosed settlement discussions with the EPA and the DOJ
(collectively, the "plaintiff").  Settlement discussions that appear to be
constructive are ongoing.

       While the Company remains optimistic that a negotiated resolution will
be achieved, it is not presently determinable whether this matter's ultimate
resolution will occur through settlement or litigation.  In either case, it is
possible that phased closure of all four ponds in Navajo's wastewater treatment
system may be required, with the resulting costs of closure and of developing
an alternative means of treating and disposing of the refinery's wastewater.

       In this regard, after consultation with counsel and engineering
consultants, the Company estimates closure costs for all of the ponds could be
between $3.5 and $9 million and development of additional treatment and
alternative disposal could cost an additional $2 to $7 million.  If these
expenses were to be incurred, the cost would likely be borne over a period of
several years and would be reflected as an expense or capitalized, as
appropriate, for the period for which the cost is properly allocable.  These
estimates do not include the cost of any possible civil penalty, the amount of
which cannot be presently ascertained.

       In December 1993, Diamond Shamrock, Inc., an independent refiner and
retailer, announced its intention to build a 400-mile 10-inch pipeline, with
initial capacity of 32,000 barrels per day of refined products, from its McKee
refinery near Dumas, Texas to El Paso, Texas.  Such a pipeline, which Diamond
Shamrock has stated it anticipates to complete in the spring of 1995, could
substantially increase the supply of product in the Company's markets.

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

       Results of Operations

       Net income for the second quarter ended January 31, 1994 was $4.3
million, as compared to $2.1 million for the second quarter of the prior year.
For the six months ended January 31, 1994, net income was $12.5 million, as
compared to $4.6 million for the six months in the same period of fiscal 1993
before an accounting charge.  The cumulative effect through the 1992 fiscal
year of adopting Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes", which amends the accounting for income taxes
from the deferral method to the liability method, was to decrease net income by
$1.0 million to $3.7 million in the six months ended January 31, 1993.

       The increases in net income in the second quarter and six months ended
January 31, 1994, over the comparable periods in the prior year, are due
primarily to improved refinery margins, offset partially by the effect of
decreases in sales volumes.  The increased refinery margins result from crude
oil cost decreases in both periods which exceeded declines in product prices.
Revenues for both the quarter and six months ended January 31, 1994 decreased,
as a result of a decline in product prices which occurred principally in the
second quarter, and the planned and phased major maintenance turnaround of
Navajo Refining Company's New Mexico facilities.  An effect of the turnaround
was to decrease sales volumes in the current year by 6% and 7%, from the prior
year's second quarter and six month period, respectively.  The turnaround,
which commenced in early September 1993 and continued in three phases through
the end of November 1993, involved repairs and replacements of equipment on
many major units, and the shutdown and restart of all units.  Costs of $1.5
million for this turnaround in excess of the revised accrual at July 31, 1993,
were included as an expense for the current quarter ended January 31, 1994.

       Income tax expense as a percentage of pre-tax income was lower for the
prior year's three and six month periods because of the effect of a state tax
refund.

                           PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

       In July 1993, the United States Department of Justice, acting on behalf
of the EPA, filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the
District of New Mexico alleging that the Company's subsidiary, Navajo Refining
Company, beginning in September 1990 and continuing until the present, had
violated and continues to violate the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act
(RCRA) and implementing regulations of the EPA by treating, storing and
disposing of certain hazardous wastes without necessary authorization and
without compliance with regulatory requirements.  The complaint seeks a court
order directing Navajo to comply with these regulatory standards and civil
penalties for the alleged non-compliance.  Navajo has answered the complaint,
denying all the allegations of legal liability and asserting affirmative
defenses.  Discovery is in an early stage.  While the Company and Navajo intend
to contest the Government's case as necessary and appropriate, the Company is
presently engaged in settlement discussions.  For additional discussion
concerning this matter, please see Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note B to the Consolidated
Financial Statements.
