       Factors Affecting Forward-Looking Statements

       This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1993, as
amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
All statements included in this Form 10-Q, including without limitation
statements in this Item 2 under the headings "Results of Operations,"
"Liquidity and Capital Resources" and "Recent Developments That May Affect
Future Results," other than statements of historical facts, are forward-looking
statements.  Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties,
including risks and uncertainties with respect to the actions of actual or
potential competitive suppliers of refined petroleum products in the Company's
markets, demand and supply for crude oil and for refined products, the spread
between market prices for refined products and crude oil, the possibility of
constraints on the transportation of refined products, the possibility of
inefficiencies or shutdowns in refinery operations, governmental regulations
and policies, the availability of financing to the Company on favorable terms,
and the effectiveness of Company capital investments and marketing strategies.
Because of these and other risks and uncertainties, actual results may vary
materially from those estimated, anticipated or projected.  Although the
Company believes that the expectations reflected by the forward-looking
statements contained in this Report are reasonable based on information
currently available to the Company, no assurances can be given that such
expectations will prove to be correct. This summary discussion of risks and
uncertainties that may cause actual

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

results to differ from those indicated in forward-looking statements should be
read in conjunction with the discussion under the heading "Additional Factors
That May Affect Future Results" included in Item 7 of the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 1996 and in conjunction
with the discussion below under the heading "Recent Developments That May
Affect Future Results."  All forward-looking statements included in this Form
10-Q and all subsequent oral forward-looking statements attributable to the
Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their
entirety by the cautionary statements set forth above.

       Results of Operations

       The Company incurred a net loss for the second quarter ended January 31,
1997 of $1.5 million as compared to net income of $1.4 million, for the second
quarter of the prior year.  For the six months ended January 31, 1997, net
income was $1.7 million as compared to $7.5 million, for the first six months
in the same period of fiscal 1996.

       The decreases in earnings in the second quarter and six month period
ending January 31, 1997 were principally due to reduced refinery margins, as
compared to the same periods of the prior year.  Refinery margins industry wide
were at very depressed levels in the current year's second quarter, as product
prices did not keep pace with the substantial increases in crude oil costs,
particularly on the West Coast.  Refining margins have recently shown some
improvement from the low levels of the current year's second quarter period.
Revenues increased in both the second quarter and six months ended January 31,
1997 from the prior year's comparable periods as a result of higher sales
prices, partially offset by small decreases in refined product sales.

       The increases in depreciation, depletion and amortization in both
comparable periods related primarily to increased production commencing in the
second quarter of fiscal 1996 from the oil and gas properties.

       Liquidity and Capital Resources

       Cash flows from operations during the six months ended January 31, 1997
were less than capital expenditures and dividends paid, resulting in a net
decrease of cash and cash equivalents of $10.2 million.  Working capital
decreased during the six months ended January 31, 1997 by $10.0 million to
$56.6 million.  The Company's long-term debt now represents 50.3% of total
capitalization as compared to 50.2% at July 31, 1996.  At January 31, 1997, 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
obligations and to permit the payment of dividends for the foreseeable future.

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

       Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to $8.4 million in
the first six months of fiscal 1997, as compared to $15.0 million in the same
period of the prior year.  The primary reason for the decrease in net cash
flows from operating activities was the decrease in earnings.

       Cash flows used for financing activities amounted to $2.0 million in the
first six months of fiscal 1997, as compared to cash flows provided by
financing activities of $36.9 million in the same period of the prior year.  In
the second quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company completed the funding from a
group of insurance companies of a new private placement of Senior Notes in the
amount of $39 million.  The next principal payment of $10.8 million on the
Company's Senior Notes is due June 1997.

       Cash flows used for investing activities were $16.7 million in the first
six months of fiscal 1997, as compared to $8.0 million in the same period of
the prior year.  The Company adopted capital budgets totalling $32 million for
fiscal 1997.  The major components of this budget are $13 million for the
construction of a pipeline connection from the Navajo Refinery to an 8"
pipeline that will be leased by the Company for products transport (the "Lease
Agreement") and related product terminals, $12 million for various refinery
improvements and environmental and safety enhancements and $7 million for
exploration and production activities.  In addition to these projects, the
Company plans to complete the major items approved in the 1996 capital budget,
including a joint venture to ship liquid petroleum gas (LPGs) to Mexico and two
projects at the Navajo Refinery which entail upgrades to improve product
yields.

       The Lease Agreement is with Mid-America Pipeline Company and involves
more than 300 miles of 8" pipeline running from Chavez County to San Juan
County, New Mexico.  The Company plans to construct a 60 mile pipeline, from
the Navajo Refinery to the leased pipeline, and related terminalling
facilities.  These facilities will allow the Company to use the pipeline to
transport refined products from its Navajo Refinery to markets in Albuquerque
and northwest New Mexico.  The pipeline and related facilities are projected to
be operational near the end of calendar 1997.

       The Company is in a joint venture with Mid-America Pipeline Company and
Amoco Pipeline Company to transport liquid petroleum gases (LPGs) to Mexico.
The Company has a 25% interest in the joint venture.  The project involved the
construction of a 12" pipeline from Orla to El Paso, Texas which replaced a
portion of 8" pipeline used by Navajo, which was transferred to the joint
venture.  The 12" pipeline was completed during October 1996.  The Company's
total net cash investment in the projects (in addition to the contribution of a
portion of the existing 8" pipeline to the joint venture) is now estimated to
be $8 million, of which $7 million is to be spent in fiscal 1997, including
contributions to the joint venture.  The Company anticipates the realization of
transportation revenues from the joint venture to start in the second half of
fiscal 1997.

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

       The additional pipeline capacity associated with the new pipeline
constructed in conjunction with the joint venture and with the Lease Agreement
and the construction of the related pipeline and terminalling facilities should
reduce pipeline operating expenses at current throughputs and allow the Company
to expand volumes, through refinery expansion or otherwise, shipped into
existing and new markets.

       The Company announced in February 1997, the formation of an alliance
with FINA, Inc. to create a comprehensive supply network which should provide
sufficient gasoline and diesel supply to satisfy the demand growth in the West
Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona markets for at least the next five years.  When
fully operational, the system will have the capacity to provide up to 155,000
barrels of refined products per day to these Southwest markets.  The project
will utilize existing assets.  FINA's bi-directional Amdel Pipeline could be
converted, when needed, from crude oil to refined products and transport up to
50,000 barrels per day from FINA's Port Arthur Refinery on the Gulf Coast,
while 45,000 barrels per day will be shipped from FINA's Big Spring Refinery.
In addition, the Navajo Refinery will continue to provide 60,000 barrels per
day of refined products.  FINA will construct a 50 mile extension of its Amdel
Pipeline from Wink, Texas to the Company's pipeline station at Orla, Texas,
where a long-term agreement with FINA will enable them to transport up to
20,000 barrels per day on the Company's recently completed 12" pipeline to El
Paso.  In New Mexico, the completion by the Company of the 8" inch pipeline
from the Navajo Refinery to the Company's recently leased pipeline from
Mid-America Pipeline Company (the Lease Agreement) will then provide direct
service to Albuquerque and northwest New Mexico.  The alliance will provide
product supply along the full extent of this system, from Bloomfield in
northwest New Mexico, east to Duncan, Oklahoma, and south to El Paso.  This
pipeline system, along with other recently announced El Paso area pipeline
expansions, will provide sufficient supply to fully utilize all existing common
carrier pipelines which ship product from El Paso to New Mexico, Arizona and
Mexico.  It is anticipated that this pipeline network should be fully
operational by August 1998 at which time the Company will begin to realize
certain pipeline and terminalling revenues from Fina.

       The Company believes the scheduled capital projects to upgrade the
Navajo Refinery will improve product yields and enhance refining profitability.
The UOP Isomerization unit, which will increase the refinery's internal octane
generating capabilities and improve light product yields, was completed in
February 1997.  In addition, the planned state-of-the-art upgrades to the
Navajo Refinery's fluid catalytic cracking unit (FCC), which will improve FCC
high value product yields, are now expected to be completed by fall 1997.  The
total estimated cost of these two projects is $15 million, of which $9 million
is to be spent in fiscal 1997 through early fiscal 1998.

       Recent Developments That May Affect Future Results

       Ultramar Diamond Shamrock Corporation, an independent refiner and
marketer, completed in November 1995 the construction of a 409-mile, ten-inch
refined products pipeline from its McKee refinery near Dumas, Texas to El Paso.
Ultramar Diamond Shamrock has announced that this pipeline currently has a
capacity of 30,000 BPD, and with the addition of two pumping stations to be
built in the first half of 1997, it will have a 45,000 BPD capacity.  Ultramar
Diamond Shamrock has stated its intention to use its pipeline to supply fuels
to the El Paso, New Mexico, Arizona and northern Mexico markets.  This pipeline
has increased and could further increase the supply of products in the
Company's principal markets.

       Recently there have been several refining and marketing consolidations
or acquisitions between entities competing in the Company's geographic market.
While this could increase the competitive pressures on the Company, the
specific ramifications of these or other potential consolidations cannot
presently be determined.  Unocal has recently agreed to sell to Tosco
Corporation all of the operating assets of 76 Products Company, Unocal's West
Coast refining and marketing division.  The parties have said they expect to
close in the first quarter of 1997.  The total combined sales by the Company to
Tosco Corporation and its affiliates and to Unocal's West Coast refining and
marketing division currently amount to approximately 20%.

       Effective January 1, 1995, certain cities in the United States were
required to use only reformulated gasoline ("RFG"), a cleaner burning fuel.
While none of the Company's principal markets presently requires RFG, the
Phoenix metropolitan area has indicated, subject to public comments, that it
will require RFG by June 1, 1997, and subsequently other requirements may be
instituted.  The Company believes it is in position, with the recent completion
of its isomerization unit, to be able to meet the RFG specification.  The
specific fuel specifications which will ultimately be required in this market,
as well as the Company's other principal markets, cannot presently be
determined.  Other requirements of the Clean Air Act, or other presently
existing or future environmental regulations, could cause the Company to expend
substantial amounts at its refineries.  The specifics and extent of these or
other regulations and their attendant costs are not presently determinable.

       This discussion should be read in conjunction with the discussion under
the heading "Additional Factors That May Affect Future Results" included in
Item 7 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
July 31, 1996.
