NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. The interim consolidated condensed financial statements reflect all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All such
adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Due to the seasonal nature of
the business, the results of operations for the three- and nine-month
periods ended May 31, 1994, are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the year ended August 31, 1994. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended August 31, 1993.
Note 2. The Company provides certain health care and life insurance
benefits for retired employees and adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits
Other Than Pensions," on September 1, 1993. SFAS No. 106 requires companies
to actuarially determine a present liability, the accumulated
postretirement benefit obligation (APBO), for future postretirement benefits
on the basis that those benefits are earned during the employees' active
service years. The Company has elected to defer its initial APBO of $72.2
million and amortize it over 20 years as a component of net periodic
postretirement benefit cost as permitted by SFAS No. 106.
The estimated amount of net periodic postretirement benefit costs, as
determined by an independent actuary, for the year ended August 31, 1994,
includes the following:
Service cost $ 1,942,000
Interest cost 5,114,000
Amortization of initial APBO 3,609,000
Estimated net periodic postretirement
benefit cost computed in accordance
with SFAS No. 106 $10,665,000
During fiscal 1994 approximately 95 percent of the estimated net periodic
postretirement benefit cost in excess of the cost recognized for benefits
actually paid will be deferred in accordance with recommendations made by
the Oklahoma Corporation Commission (OCC) staff until the OCC issues a final
order providing for recovery of such costs. The Company estimates that it
will pay approximately $3.2 million in postretirement benefits during fiscal
1994 resulting in a deferral of postretirement benefit costs for regulatory
purposes of approximately $6.8 million.
A one percent increase in the medical trend rate on the service and interest
cost components of the net periodic postretirement benefit cost results in
increases of 19.8 and 9.8 percent, respectively.
<PAGE>
Note 3. Rate Proceedings: Hearings on the Company's pending application
for a rate increase commenced on October 25, 1993, and concluded on
January 12, 1994. Deliberations began April 1, 1994, and concluded June 29,
1994. Decisions reached by the three commissioners indicate a rate increase
of approximately $5.5 million in addition to the interim annual rate
increase of $18.2 million authorized in March 1992. This amount is subject
to review and approval in a final order, which is expected in August 1994.
Upon issuance of a final rate order, the Company will begin amortizing
certain previously deferred expenses which will more than offset the $5.5
million additional rate increase. The interim rate increase is included in
both the 3-month and 9-month utility revenues.
Note 4. Other Assets: Included in other assets are the Company's 25
percent investments in two natural gas transmission systems, Ozark Gas
Transmission System (Ozark) and Red River Pipeline (Red River) of $11.5
million and $14.3 million, respectively. Ozark has negotiated a tentative
contract exit fee from Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation and is pursuing
its options, including sale of the pipeline. Columbia Gas Transmission
Corporation, one of Ozark's two firm shippers, previously commenced a
voluntary case under the Federal Bankruptcy laws. The Company is attempting
to improve the performance of Red River, which continues to be unprofitable
and continues to require cash calls from the partners. If the results of
these pursuits are not successful, the Company may not be able to recover
all of its investments.
Note 5. Sale of Subsidiary: Effective May 1, 1994, the Company sold ONEOK
Drilling Company, its contract drilling subsidiary, for approximately $5.8
million. A pretax loss of $357,000 and a net tax benefit of $335,000,
including revisions of prior year's estimates to actual, were recorded in
May 1994.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
ONEOK Inc. and its subsidiaries, hereinafter referred to as the Company,
engage in several aspects of the energy business. The Company purchases,
gathers, compresses, transports, and stores natural gas for distribution to
consumers. It transports gas for others, leases pipeline capacity to others
for their use in transporting gas, and is a partner in a gas marketing
business and two natural gas transmission systems that transport gas for
others. The Company explores for and produces oil and gas and extracts and
sells natural gas liquids. In addition, it leases and operates a
headquarters office building (leasing excess space to others) and owns and
operates a related parking facility. The assets of the subsidiary engaged
in the contract drilling of oil and gas wells were sold on May 1, 1994 for
approximately $5.8 million.
The following is a discussion of selected changes in financial condition
from the end of the 1993 fiscal year to the end of the third quarter of the
1994 fiscal year and results of operations with respect to the three months
and nine months ended May 31, 1994 and 1993.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The estimated sources of funds (cash) for the 1994 fiscal year are as
follows:
Source of Funds (Millions of $)
Proceeds from:
Issuance of short-term debt $ 16.0
Issuance of long-term debt -
Sale of property 6.2
Cash provided by operating activities 100.8
Total $123.0
The Company had $20 million in short-term debt outstanding on May 31, 1994,
and $10 million outstanding on June 23, 1994. The Company has $77 million
in notes outstanding under its $150 million medium-term note facility. On
May 31, 1994, the Company could have issued approximately $263 million of
additional long-term debt under the most restrictive of the provisions
contained in its various lending agreements.
The Company invests available funds on a short-term basis. There were no
short-term investments on May 31, 1994, and $10 million on June 23, 1994.
Included in other assets are the Company's 25 percent investments in two
natural gas transmission systems, Ozark Gas Transmission System (Ozark) and
Red River Pipeline (Red River) of $11.5 million and $14.3 million,
respectively. Ozark has negotiated a tentative contract exit fee from
Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation and is pursuing its options, including
sale of the pipeline. Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation, one of Ozark's
two firm shippers, previously commenced a voluntary case under the Federal
Bankruptcy laws. The Company is attempting to improve the performance of
Red River, which continues to be unprofitable and continues to require cash
calls from the partners. If the results of these pursuits are not
successful, the Company may not be able to recover all of its investments.

FUNDS GENERATED FROM OPERATIONS
RATE PROCEEDINGS
Hearings on the Company's pending application for a rate increase commenced
on October 25, 1993, and concluded on January 12, 1994. Deliberations began
April 1, 1994, and concluded June 29, 1994. Decisions reached by the three
commissioners indicate a rate increase of approximately $5.5 million in
addition to the interim annual rate increase of $18.2 million authorized in
March 1992. This amount is subject to review and approval in a final order,
which is expected in August 1994. Upon issuance of a final rate order, the
Company will begin amortizing certain previously deferred expenses which
will more than offset the $5.5 million additional rate increase. The
interim rate increase is included in both the 3-month and 9-month utility
revenues.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
Capital expenditures budgeted for the 1994 fiscal year, compared with actual
expenditures for the 1993 and 1992 fiscal years, are as follows:
Est. Actuals
Capital Expenditures (Millions of $) 1994 1993 1992
Natural gas distribution $44.3 $45.8 $42.4
Natural gas transmission 15.3 13.0 14.9
Exploration and production 10.0 24.9 (1) 10.6
Other operations 3.6 2.5 1.8
$73.2 $86.2 $69.7
(1) Includes the April 1993 acquisition of the North Frisco City Field in
Monroe County, Alabama, at a cost of approximately $16.7 million.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
A summary of consolidated earnings is as follows:
3 Months Ended 9 Months Ended
(Stated in Thousands, May 31, May 31,
Except Per Share Data) 1994 1993 1994 1993
Net income $5,692 $2,750 $39,891 $39,977
Earnings per common share $.21 $.10 $1.48 $1.49
The consolidated effective income tax rate was 30.1 percent for the third
quarter of 1994, and 37.3 percent for the fiscal year to date, compared with
34.0 percent and 34.6 percent, respectively, for the same periods last year.
The 1994 effective tax rate for the third quarter was down because of
adjustments due to the sale of ONEOK Drilling Company and revisions of prior
year estimates. The effective tax rate for the fiscal year to date
increased because of the recently enacted one percent federal tax rate
increase and adjustments made in the first quarter of 1993 to revise prior
tax estimates.
Consolidated net interest expense decreased due to lower interest rates on
long-term debt and because of early call premium payments on the refunding
of long-term debt paid in April 1993.

Revenue for residential and commercial gas sales decreased during the
current fiscal quarter because of weather which was warmer by 25 percent
than last year's third quarter. For the fiscal year to date, weather was 3
percent warmer than the previous year, and revenues decreased for those
customers.
Volumes sold to industrial customers or delivered under pipeline capacity
leases (PCLs) are as follows:

Total $38,823 $36,650 $125,331 $123,016
Total revenues from industrial customers increased for both periods because
of increased PCL volumes. Margins began declining in October 1992 but have
remained relatively flat since November 1993. Under the Company's payment-
in-kind (PIK) program, a portion of gas transported for pipeline capacity
lease customers is retained in lieu of cash payment for transportation
charges. Certain contracts using the PIK program include price equivalent
caps, which reduce the volumes of gas retained by the Company as the price
of PIK gas purchased escalates. PIK gas is priced to utility customers at
the weighted average cost of gas purchased from all sources. Revenues
received under the PIK program decline as spot market prices increase,
reducing both the spread and the volumes of gas retained.
Utility gas purchased expense decreased due to lower sales volumes because
of warmer weather during the current periods and because of increased
customers' utilization of the PCL program.
<PAGE>
Operating expenses decreased during the quarter and fiscal year mainly
because of lower legal costs and the prior year's accrual of an employee
incentive plan. Depreciation expense increased due to additional utility
property in service.

Margin (per Mcf) $.12 $.04 $.18 $.04
Volumes of natural gas liquids sold were down due to reduced recovery of
ethane because of decreased margins. Margins are down because of decreasing
crude prices. Average product prices were down, resulting in revenues of
$11.7 million for the current three-month period, down 23 percent from the
prior year's third quarter, and $36.4 million for the fiscal year to date, a
decrease of 20 percent from the prior year. Other gas sales margins
increased because of lower-cost supplies of gas obtained at an earlier date
and held for sale.
Included in the current fiscal year to date is a gain of $2.1 million on the
sale of a gas gathering system, which was included in other revenues during
the first quarter.

decreased prices and increased 7 percent for the fiscal year to date because
of increased sales volumes, primarily production from the North Frisco City

expenses for the quarter, and increased depreciation and depletion expenses
were the primary cause of increased operating expenses for the fiscal year.
