                   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 April 30, 1994, the
consolidated results of operations for the three months and nine months ended
April 30, 1994 and 1993, and consolidated cash flows for the nine months ended
April 30, 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
nine 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 engaged in what appear to be potentially fruitful
settlement negotiations.  While the Company continues to be optimistic that a
negotiated resolution will be achieved, it remains indeterminable 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 that 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 $12 million.  Please
see Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations below, for further discussion.  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 nine months ended April 30, 1994
exceeded capital expenditures and dividends paid, resulting in a net increase
of cash and cash equivalents of $7.3 million.  Working capital increased during
the nine months by $11.4 million to $23.6 million at April 30, 1994.  The
Company's long-term debt now represents 54.8% of total capitalization as
compared to 63.3% at July 31, 1993.  At April 30, 1994, the Company had $25
million of borrowing capacity under the Credit Agreement 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 $27.9 million in
the first nine months of fiscal 1994, as compared to $15.9 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.

       Cash flows used for investing activities were $18.5 million in the first
nine months of fiscal 1994, as compared to $13.3 million in the same period of
the prior year, all of which were for capital expenditures.  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 standard
for diesel fuel, diesel desulfurization units were completed at the Artesia,
New Mexico facility in August 1993 and at the Montana refinery in October 1993.
While it is not possible to anticipate fully the effects of future regulatory
requirements on capital expenditures, 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 $2.1 million in the
first nine months of fiscal 1994, as compared to $2.6 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 of which $.7 million
was paid off during the nine months ended April 30, 1993, and the remaining
balance was paid off during the fourth quarter 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
continues to be involved in pursuit of a negotiated resolution.

       While the Company remains optimistic that such a 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.

       Despite extensive analysis, continued consultation with the Company's
counsel and consultants and further discussions with the DOJ and the EPA, it
remains unclear what may be the ultimate cost of pond closure and development
of an alternative wastewater treatment facility.  The previously disclosed
range for the costs of full pond closure, between $3.5 and $9.0 million,
remains the Company's best estimate, although it now appears more likely the
cost will approach the lower end of this range.  With respect to the
alternative treatment system, the low end of the range, $2 million, remains the
same, while the upper end of the range, previously $7 million, may be higher,
perhaps approaching $12 million.  Where within this range the cost may
ultimately fall is not presently determinable.

       If these costs were to be incurred, they 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.

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

       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.

       Results of Operations

       Net income for the third quarter ended April 30, 1994 was $8.7 million,
as compared to $4.7 million for the third quarter of the prior year.  For the
nine months ended April 30, 1994, net income was $21.3 million, as compared to
$9.3 million for the nine 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,
from $9.3 million to $8.3 million for the nine months ended April 30, 1993.

       The increases in net income in the third quarter and the nine months
ended April 30, 1994, over the comparable periods in the prior year, are due
primarily to improved refinery margins.  The increased refinery margins
resulted from crude oil cost decreases in both periods which exceeded declines
in product prices.  Revenues for both the quarter and nine months ended April
30, 1994 decreased, primarily as a result of declines in product price levels.
Sales of refined products for the third quarter were at a record level of
73,100 barrels-per-day.

       Since the end of the Company's third quarter, refinery margins have
narrowed as crude oil prices have advanced sharply and refined product prices
have not kept pace with crude oil costs.

       Income tax expense as a percentage of pre-tax income was lower for the
prior year's nine month period 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.
