NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 1999
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Organization and nature of operations
Parker & Parsley 84-A, Ltd. (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership
organized in 1984 under the laws of the State of Texas.
The Partnership engages primarily in oil and gas development and production in
Texas and is not involved in any industry segment other than oil and gas.
Note 2. Basis of presentation
In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements of the
Partnership as of September 30, 1999 and for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1999 and 1998 include all adjustments and accruals consisting only
of normal recurring accrual adjustments which are necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for the interim period. These interim results are
not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes
thereto contained in the Partnership's Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1998, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, a copy
of which is available upon request by writing to Rich Dealy, Vice President and
Chief Accounting Officer, 5205 North O'Connor Boulevard, 1400 Williams Square
West, Irving, Texas 75039-3746.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations (1)
Results of Operations
Nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared with nine months ended
September 30, 1998
Revenues:
The Partnership's oil and gas revenues increased 16% to $1,014,766 from $875,204
for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The
increase in revenues resulted from higher average prices received and an
increase in production. For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, 37,683
barrels of oil, 29,702 barrels of natural gas liquids ("NGLs") and 127,652 mcf
7
<PAGE>
of gas were sold, or 88,660 barrel of oil equivalents ("BOEs"). For the nine
months ended September 30, 1998, 41,661 barrels of oil, 25,884 barrels of NGLs
and 108,294 mcf of gas were sold, or 85,594 BOEs.
The average price received per barrel of oil increased $1.77, or 13%, from
$13.67 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 to $15.44 for the same
period in 1999. The average price received per barrel of NGLs increased $2.10,
or 34%, from $6.21 during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 to $8.31 for
the same period in 1999. The average price received per mcf of gas increased 9%
from $1.34 during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 to $1.46 for the same
period in 1999. The market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile in
the past decade, and management expects a certain amount of volatility to
continue in the foreseeable future. The Partnership may therefore sell its
future oil and gas production at average prices lower or higher than that
received during the nine months ended September 30, 1999.
The volatility of commodity prices has had, and continues to have, a significant
impact on the Partnership's revenues and operating cash flow and could result in
additional decreases to the carrying value of the Partnership's oil and gas
properties.
A gain on disposition of assets of $2,100 was received during the nine months
ended September 30, 1998 from the sale of equipment on one fully depleted well.
Costs and Expenses:
Total costs and expenses decreased to $787,176 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 as compared to $1,097,252 for the same period in 1998, a
decrease of $310,076, or 28%. This decrease was due to declines in depletion and
production costs, offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses
("G&A").
Production costs were $606,234 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and
$643,725 for the same period in 1998 resulting in a $37,491 decrease, or 6%. The
decrease was due to declines in well maintenance costs and ad valorem taxes.
G&A's components are independent accounting and engineering fees and managing
general partner personnel and operating costs. During this period, G&A increased
from $27,595 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 to $37,013 for the
same period in 1999. The increase in G&A was due to accrued 1999 tax processing
services as compared to the 1998 tax services which were paid during the first
six months of 1999.
Depletion was $143,929 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared to
$425,932 for the same period in 1998, representing a decrease of $282,003, or
66%. This decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in proved reserves
during the period ended September 30, 1999 due to the higher commodity prices, a
reduction in oil production of 3,978 barrels for the nine months ended September
30, 1999 compared to the same period in 1998 and a reduction in the
Partnership's net depletable basis from charges taken in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of"
("SFAS 121") during the fourth quarter of 1998.

<PAGE>
Three months ended September 30, 1999 compared with three months ended September
30, 1998
Revenues:
The Partnership's oil and gas revenues increased 57% to $441,421 from $281,001
for the three months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The
increase in revenues resulted from higher average prices received and an
increase in production. For the three months ended September 30, 1999, 12,626
barrels of oil, 11,309 barrels of NGLs and 46,764 mcf of gas were sold, or
31,729 BOEs. For the three months ended September 30, 1998, 13,467 barrels of
oil, 10,107 barrels of NGLs and 40,535 mcf of gas were sold, or 30,330 BOEs.
The average price received per barrel of oil increased $6.89, or 55%, from
$12.52 for the three months ended September 30, 1998 compared to $19.41 for the
same period in 1999. The average price received per barrel of NGLs increased
$4.66, or 82%, from $5.66 during the three months ended September 30, 1998 to
$10.32 for the same period in 1999. The average price received per mcf of gas
increased 25% from $1.36 during the three months ended September 30, 1998 to
$1.70 for the same period in 1999.
Costs and Expenses:
Total costs and expenses decreased to $255,255 for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 as compared to $469,554 for the same period in 1998, a
decrease of $214,299, or 46%. This decrease was due to a decline in depletion,
offset by increases in G&A and production costs.
Production costs were $204,910 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 and
$198,620 for the same period in 1998, resulting in a $6,290 increase, or 3%. The
increase was due to higher production taxes and well maintenance costs incurred
in an effort to stimulate well production, offset by a decrease in ad valorem
taxes.
During this period, G&A increased from $8,430 for the three months ended
September 30, 1998 to $17,369 for the same period in 1999. The increase in G&A
was due to accrued 1999 tax processing services as compared to the 1998 tax
services which were paid during the first six months of 1999.
Depletion was $32,976 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 compared to
$262,504 for the same period in 1998, representing a decrease of $229,528, or
87%. This decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in proved reserves
during the period ended September 30, 1999 as a result of higher commodity
prices, a reduction in oil production of 841 barrels for the three months ended
September 30, 1999 compared to the same period in 1998 and a reduction in the
Partnership's net depletable basis from charges taken in accordance with SFAS
121 during the fourth quarter of 1998.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased $248 during the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 from the same period ended in 1998. This increase was
9
<PAGE>
due to declines of $24,492 in production costs paid and $10,348 in G&A expenses
paid, offset by declines in oil and gas sales receipts of $32,851 and in
interest income of $1,741.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
The Partnership's principal investing activities during the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 and 1998 included equipment replacement on various oil and
gas properties.
Proceeds from asset dispositions of $211 were received during the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 from equipment credits received on active properties.
Proceeds of $2,100, received during the same period in 1998, were derived from
the sale of equipment on one fully depleted well.
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities
Cash was sufficient for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 to cover
distributions to the partners of $214,788 of which $54,007 was distributed to
the general partners and $160,781 to the limited partners. For the same period
ended September 30, 1998, cash was sufficient for distributions to the partners
of $282,254 of which $72,499 was distributed to the general partners and
$209,755 to the limited partners.
From the third quarter of 1997 through the first quarter of 1999, there was a
declining trend in oil and gas price levels. During the first quarter of 1999,
the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and certain other crude oil
exporting nations announced reductions in their planned export volumes. These
announcements, together with the enactment of announced reductions in export
volumes, have had a positive impact on world crude oil prices since first
quarter of 1999. No assurances can be given that the reductions in export
volumes or the positive trend in oil and gas commodity prices can be sustained
for an extended period of time.
Year 2000 Project Readiness
Historically, many computer programs have been developed that use only the last
two digits in a date to refer to a year. As the year 2000 nears, the inability
of such computer programs and embedded technologies to distinguish between
"1900" and "2000" has given rise to the "Year 2000" problem. Theoretically, such
computer programs and related technology could fail outright, or communicate
inaccurate data, if not remediated or replaced. With the proliferation of
electronic data interchange, the Year 2000 problem represents a significant
exposure to the entire global community, the full extent of which cannot be
accurately assessed.
In proactive response to the Year 2000 problem, the managing general partner
established a "Year 2000" project to assess, to the extent possible, the
Partnership's and the managing general partner's internal Year 2000 problem; to
take remedial actions necessary to minimize the Year 2000 risk exposure to the
managing general partner and significant third parties with whom it has data
interchange; and, to test its systems and processes once remedial actions have
been taken. The managing general partner has contracted with IBM Global Services
to perform the assessment and remedial phases of its Year 2000 project.
10
<PAGE>
As of September 30, 1999, the assessment phase of the managing general partner's
Year 2000 project is complete and has included, but was not limited to, the
following procedures:
o the identification of necessary remediation, upgrades and/or replacement
of existing information technology applications and systems;
o the assessment of non-information technology exposures, such as
telecommunications systems, security systems, elevators and process
control equipment;
o the initiation of inquiry and dialogue with significant third party
business partners, customers and suppliers in an effort to understand and
assess their Year 2000 problems, readiness and potential impact on the
managing general partner and its Year 2000 problem;
o the implementation of processes designed to reduce the risk of
reintroduction of Year 2000 problems into the managing general partner's
systems and business processes; and,
o the formulation of contingency plans for mission-critical information
technology systems.
The managing general partner distributed Year 2000 problem inquiries to over 500
entities and has received responses to approximately 52% of the inquiries.
The remedial phase of the managing general partner's Year 2000 project is in the
final stages of completion as it pertains to the remediation of information
technology and non-information technology applications and systems in the United
States, Canada and Argentina. As of September 30, 1999, the remedial phase of
the managing general partner's Year 2000 project was approximately 98% complete,
on a world wide basis, subject to continuing evaluations of the responses to
third party inquiries and to the testing phase results. The remedial phase has
included the upgrade and/or replacement of certain application and hardware
systems. The managing general partner has upgraded its Artesia general ledger
accounting systems through remedial coding and has completed the testing of the
system for Year 2000 compliance. The remediation of non-information technology
was 97% complete as of September 30, 1999, and was completed in October 1999.
The managing general partner's Year 2000 remedial actions have not delayed other
information technology projects or upgrades.
The testing phase of the managing general partner's Year 2000 project is on
schedule. The managing general partner completed the testing of non-information
technology remediation in October 1999. The testing of information technology
remediation is scheduled to be completed by the end of November 1999.
The managing general partner now expects that its total costs related to the
Year 2000 problem will approximate $2.9 million. As of September 30, 1999, the
managing general partner's total costs incurred on the Year 2000 problem were
$2.5 million.
The risks associated with the Year 2000 problem are significant. A failure to
remedy a critical Year 2000 problem could have a materially adverse affect on
the Partnership's results of operations and financial condition. The most likely
worst case scenario which may be encountered as a result of a Year 2000 problem
could include information and non-information system failures, the receipt or
11
<PAGE>
transmission of erroneous data, lost data or a combination of similar problems
of a magnitude that cannot be accurately assessed at this time.
In the business continuity and contingency planning phase of the managing
general partner's Year 2000 project, contingency plans were designed to mitigate
the exposures to mission critical information technology systems, such as oil
and gas sales receipts, vendor and royalty cash distributions, debt compliance,
accounting, and employee compensation. Such contingency plans anticipate the
extensive utilization of third-party data processing services, personal computer
applications and the substitution of courier and mail services in place of
electronic data interchange. Given the uncertainties regarding the scope of the
Year 2000 problem and the compliance of significant third parties, there can be
no assurance that contingency plans will have anticipated all Year 2000
scenarios.
