Item 5. Other Events.
Effective January 30, 1998, K N Energy Inc. ("K N" or the "Company")
acquired all of the outstanding common stock of MidCon Corp. ("MidCon") from
Occidental Petroleum Corporation ("Oxy"). This transaction was accounted for as
a purchase and, accordingly, the transactions and balances of MidCon are
included with those of the Company beginning with the acquisition date and, in
accordance with authoritative accounting guidelines, the assets and liabilities
of MidCon have been recorded at their estimated fair market values as of the
acquisition date. Additional information on this acquisition, including certain
historical information of MidCon, is included in the Company's 1997 annual
report on Form 10-K, the Company's quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the first
and second quarters of 1998 and various filings (generally on Form S-3 and Form
8-K) made in support of financings during 1998.
As further described in the Company's report on Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended March 31, 1998, the Company has adopted the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS 131"), which requires that
external reporting of segment information reflect the manner in which such
businesses are managed. SFAS 131 requires the disclosure of certain information
for each business segment and further requires that comparable information be
presented for prior periods when the makeup of such segments changes.
The unaudited information provided in Item 7 for the Company and
MidCon, which does not include much of the information required by SFAS 131, has
been prepared using generally the same principles employed in developing the
information reported pursuant to SFAS 131 in the Company's reports on Form 10-Q
during 1998. The information for MidCon reflects the historical results of
MidCon, including the impact of purchase accounting associated with Oxy's
purchase of MidCon. In addition, the MidCon results (i) reflect allocations of
joint costs and other accounting principles which may differ from those utilized
by the Company and (ii) exclude the results of operations for businesses which
have not been continued by K N. For these reasons, among others, the unaudited
information provided in Item 7 may not be indicative of future operating results
or the results which would have been achieved had MidCon and K N been combined
as of an earlier date.
