                      Notes and Disclosures to Form 10-QSB



1.      Presentation
        ------------

        The financial  statements as of March 31, 1998, and for the three months
then ended were prepared by American Geological Enterprises,  Inc. (AGE) without
audit  pursuant to the rules and  regulations  of the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in the financial  statements  prepared in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations.  In the opinion of  management,  all necessary  adjustments  to the
financial statements have been made to present fairly the financial position and
results of operations and cash flows.  The results of operations for the periods
presented  are not  necessarily  indicative  of the results  for the  respective
complete  years.  AGE has  previously  filed with the SEC a Form  10-KSB,  which
included audited financial statements for the two years ending December 31, 1997
and 1996. It is suggested that the financial statements contained in this filing
be read in conjunction with the statements and notes thereto  contained in AGE's
Form 10-KSB filing.

          Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
                           and Results of Operations



AGE is engaged in the acquisition of geothermal and oil and gas leases.  Revenue
consists of royalties and  interest.  AGE's  financial  condition and results of
operations  fluctuate  from year to year,  depending  upon the  production  from
current leases,  the availability of leases to be acquired,  and the opportunity
to sell lease  rights.  AGE's  ability to obtain  future  leases or to  generate
revenues from the sale of lease rights is not determinable; hence, its financial
condition and operations may fluctuate widely in the future.

Financial Condition & Results of Operations
- -------------------------------------------

At March 31, 1998,  AGE's  financial  condition is consistent  with December 31,
1997. Income and expenses for the first quarters of 1998 and 1997 are consistent
except for other  general and  administrative  expenses  and income tax expense.
Other general and  administrative  expenses  increased in 1998 due to accounting
fees  related  to a prior year tax  audit.  Income tax  expense in 1998 does not
reflect the expected tax rate due to the change in long-term deferred taxes.

Liquidity
- ---------

AGE's  liquidity at March 31, 1998,  is considered  adequate with  $1,103,945 in
working  capital.  AGE is  committed  to  furnish  its  share of steam  from its
investment in a geothermal  power unit to PacifiCorp  under a 30-year  agreement
that commenced in 1991. Additionally,  AGE's future commitments consist of lease
payments on the land which lies within the participating  area of the geothermal
power unit.  There are no other  commitments  or anticipated  expenditures  of a
capital nature.

AGE's economic  future will be dependent,  in major part,  upon the value of its
undeveloped   interests  in  the  geothermal  power  unit.  The  value  of  such
undeveloped  interests will, in turn, be dependent upon, among other matters (a)
the then  current  price of  energy;  (b)  governmental  incentives  to  develop
renewable  resources;  (c)  regulatory  incentives;  and (d) the  load  needs of
PacifiCorp.

Other
- -----

A tax rate of 34.6  percent  was used for  income  tax  calculations  for  1998.
Current  estimates  support 34.6 percent as the effective tax rate for the 199 8
year.
