LaTex Resources, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(1) Notes Payable
-------------
The Company has a credit facility with Bank of America providing loan advances
up to $28,200,000 net to the company based on the proven oil and gas properties
of the Company. The Company negotiated the facility in April 1995, and amended
in October 1995, with current outstanding advances of $23,197,692. Principal
payments are required monthly beginning June 30, 1995 and total $322,500 per
month with interest accruing on the unpaid balance at the current interest rate
of 9.6%. The company is currently in default with certain financial covenants
as specified in the Amended Credit Agreement, however the company is current in
its payments to the Bank of America.
(2) Accounting Policies
-------------------
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of only normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. These statements should be read in conjunction with the
LaTex Resources, Inc. financial statements and notes thereto as of July 31, 1995
which are included in the Company's Form 10-K.
(3) Income Taxes
------------
Deferred income taxes are provided on transactions which are recognized in
different periods for financial and tax reporting purposes. Such timing
differences arise primarily from the deduction of certain oil and gas
exploration and development costs which are capitalized for financial reporting
purposes and differences in the methods of depreciation.
The Financial Accounting Statements Board issued SFAS No. 109, Accounting for
Income Tax. The Company has adopted SFAS 109 beginning with its July 31, 1993
financial statements. SFAS 109 allows, but does not require, restatement of
financial statements for previous years. SFAS 109 represents a new method of
accounting for income taxes. It generally requires that deferred taxes be
provided using a liability approach at current enacted income tax rates, rather
than the deferred approach at historical rates which has been required. The
adoption of SFAS 109 has no material effect on the financial statements.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.
-----------------------------------
Acquisition of Germany Oil Company
- ----------------------------------
During the quarter ended April 30, 1995, the Company completed its acquisition
of Germany Oil Company for cash, stock and assumed liabilities for a total
consideration of $23,900,000. In conjunction with the closing of the Germany
transaction, the Company also announced that it had refinanced its senior debt
with Bank of America National Trust and Saving Association in the total amount
of $25,000,000 which included $2,000,000 to be spent on additional development
of the Company's oil and gas properties.
The Germany transaction resulted in the Company acquiring the outstanding
capital stock of Germany together with a production payment and net profits
interest from ENRON Capital & Trade Resources Corp. for $10,500,000 in cash,
250,000 shares of restricted common stock of LaTex, 411,427 shares of Series A
convertible Preferred Stock (par value of $10.00 per share); 370,000 shares of
Series B convertible Preferred Stock (par value $10.00 per share) and $5,400,000
in assumed Germany liabilities cash dividend prohibited. The Series A Preferred
Stock is convertible into common stock at $3.33 per share and has a 2% annual
dividend. The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at
$1.50 per share and has a 12% annual dividend. The company is restricted from
paying cash dividends in accordance with the Amended Credit Agreement. Stock
dividends are issued quarterly to satisfy the dividend requirement.
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
The following is a discussion of the results of operations of the Company for
the three months and six months ended January 31, 1996. This discussion should
be read in conjunction with the Company's unaudited Consolidated Financial
Statements and the notes thereto included in Part I of this Quarterly Report.
The Company follows the "successful efforts" method of accounting for its oil
and gas properties whereby costs of productive wells and productive leases are
capitalized and amortized on a unit-of-production basis over the life of the
remaining proved reserves. Amortization of capitalized costs is provided on a
prospect-by-prospect basis. Exploratory expenses, including geological and
geophysical expenses and annual delay rentals, are charged to expense as
incurred. Exploratory drilling costs, including the cost of stratigraphic test
wells, are initially capitalized, but charged to expense if and when the well is
determined to be unsuccessful.
The factors which most significantly affect the Company's results of operations
are (i) the sale prices of crude oil and natural gas,(ii) the level of total
sales volumes, (iii) the level of lease operating expenses, and (iv) the level
of and interest rates on borrowings. Total sales volumes and the level of
borrowings are significantly impacted by the degree of success the Company
experiences in its efforts to acquire oil and gas properties and its ability to
maintain or increase
11
<PAGE>
production from its existing oil and gas properties through its development
activities. The following table reflects certain historical operating data for
the periods presented:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Six Months Ended January 31
---------------------------
1996 1995
---- ----
<S> <C> <C>
Net Sales Volumes:
Oil (Mbbls) 237 166
Natural gas (Mmcf) 1872 972
Oil equivalent (MBOE) 549 327
Average Sales Prices:
Oil (per Bbl) $12.56 $11.78
Natural Gas (per Mcf) $ 1.70 $ 1.47

Lease operating $ 5.74 $ 5.72
Severance tax $ 0.76 $ 0.73
General and administrative $ 2.81 $ 4.02
Depreciation, depletion and amortization $ 4.73 $ 2.78
</TABLE>
Average sales prices received by the Company for oil and gas have historically
fluctuated significantly from period to period. Fluctuations in oil prices
during these periods reflect market uncertainties as well as concerns related to
the global supply and demand for crude oil. Average gas prices received by the
Company fluctuate generally with changes in the spot market price for gas. Spot
market gas prices have generally declined in recent years because of lower
worldwide energy prices as well as excess deliverability of natural gas in the
United States. Relatively modest changes in either oil or gas prices
significantly impact the Company's results of operations and cash flow and could
significantly impact the Company's borrowing capacity.
The company entered into hedging arrangements in April 1995 designed to offset
large fluctuations in oil and gas prices through financial instruments. For
fiscal 1996 the company has experienced a net loss of $658,587 as a result of
its hedging program.
Three months ended January 31, 1996. Total revenues from the Company's
- -----------------------------------
operations for the quarter ended January 31, 1996 were $4,095,219 compared to
$2,128,225 for the quarter ended January 31, 1995. Revenues increased over the
comparable period a year earlier due to the addition of the Germany Oil Company
acquisition in April 1995 and the Sackett acquisition in October 1995.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization increased to $1,351,353 from $439,743 a
year earlier due to an increase in the depletion rate based on the write-down of
the Company's oil and gas reserves at year-end 1995 primarily resulting from
reduced oil and gas prices.
Lease operating expenses and marketing expenses were $1,937,207 and $31,491
respectively, for the three-month period ending January 31, 1996 compared to
$998,899 and $259,122
12
<PAGE>
respectively for the period ending January 31, 1995. The increase in lease
operating expenses is due to the addition of the Germany Oil Company properties.
Marketing expenses reflect Enpro's lower oil sales for the period due to a
deferral of $41,102 attributable to sales at South Carlton and the Sackett
acquisition in October.
General and administrative expenses increased from $605,159 during the quarter
ended January 31, 1995 to $798,105 for the period ending January 31, 1996. The
increase is attributed to additional costs associated with the Germany
acquisition and increased costs associated with the year-end reserve analysis.
The Company had after tax income from continuing operations of $9,650 versus a
loss of $314,456 ($.02 per share) for the same period last year. The increase
in income reflects the addition of the Germany Oil Company properties.
The historical net loss of the Company for the quarter ended January 31, 1996
was $130,110 ($.01 per share) compared to net loss of $314,456 ($.02 per share)
for the previous year. The increase in income is a result of the Germany Oil
Company acquisition and is offset by the gain of $1,292,279 on the sale of non-
strategic properties and the loss of $663,109 on product and financial hedges
for the quarter.
Six months ended January 31, 1996. Total revenues from the Company's operations
- ---------------------------------
for the six months ended January 31, 1996 were $8,099,352 compared to $4,358,038
for the six months ended January 31, 1995. Revenues increased over the same
period in the previous year due to the addition of Germany Oil Company in April
1995 and settlements on payables associated with the Germany Oil Company
transaction.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization increased from $911,318 for the period
ended January 31, 1995 to $2,599,332 for the current period due to additional
volumes associated with the Germany Oil Company transaction and the write-down
of the Company's oil and gas reserves at year-end 1995 resulting from reduced
oil and gas prices.
Lease operating expenses increased to $3,572,243 in the current six month period
compared to $2,112,230 for the comparable period a year earlier due to the
additional production associated with the April 1995 Germany Oil Company
transaction.
General and administrative expenses increased from $1,316,126 during the period
ended January 31, 1995 to $1,545,968 for the period ending January 31, 1996.
The increase is attributed to additional professional fees associated with the
Germany Oil acquisition.
The Company had an after tax loss from continuing operations of $66,104 versus a
loss of $713,569 ($.04 per share) for the same period last year. The reduced
loss reflects additional profit margin from the Germany Oil Company properties,
producing property sales during the quarter which generated earnings of
$1,292,279 partially offset by costs associated with the company's oil and gas
product hedge and interest rate hedge of $658,587 and increased lease operating
expenses.
The historical net loss of the Company for the period ended January 31, 1996,
was $342,094 ($.02 per share) compared to a net loss of $713,569 ($.04 per
share) for the previous year. The
13
<PAGE>
reduction in the loss is due to 1.) the additional revenues from the Germany
acquisition, 2.) the gain on the sale of non-strategic assets of $1,292,27 and
3.) the loss of $658,587 due to the Company's hedging programs.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
- -------------------------------
The Company's capital requirements relate primarily to the acquisition of
developed oil and gas properties and undeveloped leasehold acreage and
exploration and development activities. In general, because the Company's oil
and gas reserves are depleted by production, the success of its business
strategy is dependent upon a continuous acquisition and exploration and
development program.
Historically, the Company's operating needs and capital expenditures have been
funded by borrowings under its bank credit facilities and cash flow from
operations. As a result of significant capital expenditures since 1991, the
Company has experienced a decease in its short-term liquidity and a decline in
its working capital. In connection with the Company's acquisition of Germany
Oil Company in April 1995, the Company's new credit facility provided a source
of long-term financing. As a result of the Germany acquisition, the Company
assumed approximately $6.0 million in liabilities and accounts payable which
created a significant working capital deficit. The Company immediately began a
program designed to reduce these liabilities through negotiated reductions in
amounts owed and term payments out of the Company's cash flow. The company has
reduced the long-term payables associated with the Germany acquisition to
approximately $3.2 million at January 31, 1996. At January 31, 1996 the Company
has current assets of $6.5 million and current liabilities of $12.6 million,
which resulted in negative working capital of $6.1 million. The Company's debt
to its principal bank at January 31, 1996, was $23.2 million. The Company
intends to continue to pursue its program to achieve an orderly liquidation of
its indebtedness and to timely resolve the Germany payables. There can be no
assurance that, without an infusion of additional debt or equity capital, the
Company will be able to timely liquidate these liabilities.
Capital Expenditures
- --------------------
The timing of most of the Company's capital expenditures is discretionary. The
Company's only current and material capital commitment is in connection with the
exploration and development of the Tunisian prospect and its participation in
the Kazakhstan project pursuant to which the Company will be required to meet
regular cash calls. The Company currently anticipates these cash calls will not
exceed $100,000 for Tunisia, subject to revision based upon the exploration and
development budgets ultimately agreed upon by the parties to the Tunisian
prospect development agreements, and $2.0 million for Kazakhstan, subject to
satisfactory resolution of the issues discussed in the Company's 10-K filing.
It is anticipated that these cash calls will be paid out of additional third
party financing to the Company's subsidiary, LaTex Resources International.
Except for the Company's capital commitments with respect to the international
activities, there are no material long-term commitments associated with the
Company's capital expenditure plans. Consequently, the Company has a
significant degree of flexibility to adjust the level of such expenditures as
circumstances warrant. The Company primarily uses internally generated cash
flows to fund capital expenditures other than significant acquisitions, and to
fund its working capital deficit. If the Company's internally generated cash
flows should be insufficient
14
<PAGE>
to meet its debt service or other obligations, the Company may reduce the level
of discretionary capital expenditures in order to meet such obligations. The
level of the Company's capital expenditures will vary in future periods
depending on energy market conditions and other related economic factors. With
the recent sale of certain non-strategic properties which resulted in the gain
of $1.3 million dedicated to working capital. The Company anticipates that its
cash flow will be sufficient to fund its domestic operations and debt service at
their current levels for the remainder of the year. However, the Company does
currently anticipate that additional external debt or equity financing will be
required to fund its international activities.
Substantially all of the Company's significant capital expenditures over its
recent history have been made to acquire oil and gas properties. During the
quarter ended October 31, 1995, the Company made one significant acquisition of
oil and gas properties from Sackett Oil Company and the Prudential Insurance
Company of America for a total purchase price of $2,885,320, less adjustments.
The properties are located in Texas and Louisiana. This acquisition was funded
through additional borrowings under the Company's principal credit facility.
The Company's strategy is to continue to expand its reserve base through
acquisitions of producing oil and gas properties. As a result, it is likely
that capital expenditures will exceed cash provided by operating activities in
years where significant growth occurs in the Company's oil and gas reserve base.
In such cases, additional external financing is likely to be required.
On January 31, 1996 the Company sold certain non-strategic assets purchased in
the Sackett acquisition to Foster Brown Company for a total consideration of
$2,857,275. The Company realized a total gain of $1,832,853 as a result of the
sale. Approximately $2.0 million of the proceeds were used to pay off bank debt
while the balance of the proceeds have been dedicated to working capital.
The Company intends to continue its practice of reserve replacement and growth
through the acquisition of producing oil and gas properties, although at this
time it is unable to predict the number and size of such acquisitions, if any,
which will be completed during the remainder of fiscal 1996. The Company's
ability to finance its oil and gas acquisitions is determined by its cash flow
from operations and available sources of debt and equity financing. Exclusive
of potential acquisitions, the Company presently anticipates total capital
expenditures in fiscal 1996 of approximately $100,000 in connection with
exploration and development of the Tunisian prospect, approximately $2 million
in connection with its Kazakhstan project (assuming certain issues are resolved
to the Company's satisfaction), and approximately $1,100,000 for oil and gas
property enhancement activities.
Financing Arrangements
- ----------------------
Since July 31, 1991, the Company has made 13 acquisitions of oil and gas
properties. These acquisitions have been financed primarily through borrowings
under the Company's bank credit facilities and through internal cash flow. In
April, 1995, the Company entered into a new credit facility pursuant to a Credit
Agreement between Bank of America, NT and SA ("Bank") and the Company's wholly
owned subsidiaries, LaTex Petroleum, Germany Oil and LaTex/GOC Acquisition
("Borrowers"). In addition, under the new credit facility the Company and the
Borrowers refinanced the Company's then existing indebtedness to the Company's
former
15
<PAGE>
principal lender. The Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, ENPRO, have
guaranteed the obligations of the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement. The
Agreement was subsequently amended in October, 1995, to include the Sackett
acquisition.
The credit agreement consists of an initial loan of $23,000,00 for the purposes
of refinancing the borrower's existing indebtedness partially funding the
acquisition of the Germany Oil and Enron interests (including funding the cash
portion of the consideration paid pursuant to the exchange offer) and for
working capital and secondly up to $2,000,000 of additional financing for
approved development drilling, workover or recompletion work on oil and gas
properties mortgaged by the borrowers to the bank as security for the loans
under the credit agreement. The Amended Credit Agreement increased the total
available borrowing capacity to $28.2 million to include the Sackett
acquisition. At January 31, 1996, outstanding advances totaled $23,197,692.
Principal on any loans under the amended credit agreement is repayable in
minimum monthly installments of $322,500 plus an additional payment equal to
the positive difference, if any, between the net proceeds from borrower's oil
and gas production times a variable dedicated percentage and the minimum monthly
payment. All unpaid principal and accrued interest under the credit agreement
is due March 31, 2000. Currently all advances under the credit agreement are
maintained as LIBOR rate loans at an interest rate of 9.6%. The Company's
indebtedness to the bank under the credit agreement is secured by mortgages on
all the Company's producing oil and gas properties and pledges of the stock of
the Company's subsidiaries.
Under the Amended Credit Agreement, the Borrowers have also granted an affiliate
of the Bank an overriding royalty interest in all of the Borrower's producing
oil and gas properties, other than those situated in the State of Oklahoma (the
"Bank ORRI") and those acquired in the Sackett Acquisition. The Bank ORRI is
6.3% of borrower's net revenue interest in each property. The Bank is not
entitled to the Bank ORRI on any property acquired after closing of the
financing. On the later to occur of (i) March 31, 1998 or (ii) at such time as
the Bank has received a 15% internal rate of return on the $25,000,000
commitment amount under the Credit Agreement, the Bank ORRI will be adjusted
downward to 2.1%.
As required under the Credit Agreement, LaTex Petroleum has entered into hedging
agreements designed to enable the Company to obtain agreed upon net realized
prices for the Company's oil and gas production and designed to protect the
Company against fluctuations in interest rates with respect to the principal
amounts of all loans under the Credit Agreement.
The Amended Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants which
impose certain restrictions and requirements on the Company, including:
limitations on the amount of additional indebtedness the Company or the
Borrowers may incur; prohibition against payment by the Company or Borrowers of
cash dividends; requirements that the Borrowers maintain a current ratio
(current assets to current liabilities) of at least 1.0 to 1.0, tangible net
worth of at least $5.0 million; limitations on the ability of the Company and
Borrowers to sell assets or to merge or consolidate with or into any other
person; and requirements that the Company maintain a consolidated current ratio
of at least 1.0 to 1.0 and consolidated tangible net worth of at least $10
million. The requirement that no less than $500,000 in cash equivalent
investments on hand at any given time, and no less than $500,000 in working
capital has been waived and replaced with a Tranche C Revolving Loan which makes
available to the Company amounts up to $300,000 to handle short-term cash
commitments. The loan is due and payable within 60 days
16
<PAGE>
and additional reborrowings will be available seven days after the date of
payment in full. At July 31, 1995, the Company was not in compliance with
certain covenants. The Bank has waived these events of default by the Company
through January 31, 1996.
The Company recently entered into an investment banking relationship with
Rauscher, Pierce and Clark, Inc. and Rauscher, Pierce and Clark, Limited
(collectively "RP&C") to assist the company in accessing capital markets and to
develop a comprehensive financial plan for the continued growth of the Company.
The Company is continuing to work with R P & C to finalize its financial plan.
The Company believes that, through sales of non-strategic properties additional
borrowing and cash flow from operations, it should be able to meet its
anticipated capital requirements for the foreseeable future for its domestic
operations. However, because future cash flows and the availability of
financing are subject to a number of variables, such as the level of production
and the prices of oil and gas, there can be no assurance that the Company's
capital resources will be sufficient to maintain currently planned levels of
capital expenditures. Nor can there be any assurance that the Company will
continue to be able to sell non-strategic properties at favorable prices.
Seasonality
- -----------
The results of operations of the Company are somewhat seasonal due to seasonal
fluctuations in the price for crude oil and natural gas. Recently, crude oil
prices have been generally higher in the third calendar quarter and natural gas
prices have been generally higher in the first calendar quarter. Due to these
seasonal fluctuations, results of operations for individual quarterly periods
may not be indicative of results which may be realized on an annual basis. The
company expects this situation to occur during this fiscal year.
Inflation and Prices
- --------------------
The Company's revenues and the value of its oil and gas properties have been and
will be affected by changes in oil and gas prices despite financial hedges
presently in place. The Company's ability to maintain current borrowing
capacity and to obtain additional capital on attractive terms is also
substantially dependent on oil and gas prices. Oil and gas prices are subject
to significant fluctuations that are beyond the Company's ability to control or
predict.
