Notes to Consolidated, Condensed Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - Financial Statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying
unaudited, consolidated, con densed financial statements contain all adjustments
necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of December
31, 1995, its cash flows for the quarters ended December 31, 1995 and 1994
("Q1FY96" and "Q1FY95"), and its results of operations for Q1FY96 and Q1FY95.
Such adjustments consisted only of normal re curring items. Certain
reclassifications have been made to the financial statements for Q1FY95 to
conform with the classifications used in the financial statements for Q1FY96.
The results of operations for the periods ended December 31 are not necessarily
indicative of the results for the full year. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.
The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1 to the
Company's consolidated financial statements contained in the Company's 1995
Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, and it is suggested that these consolidated,
condensed financial statements be read in conjunction therewith.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
During Q1FY96 cash decreased because the Company used $18,000 cash in operating
activities and expended $17,000 cash on the acquisition of shares of its Common
Stock. Cash provided by operating activities decreased as compared to Q1FY95
because during Q1FY96 the Company expended funds that reduced accounts payable,
accrued reclamation, restoration, and dismantlement expense, and other accrued
expenses. During Q1FY96 other receivables decreased because the Company received
$8,000 in refundable production taxes and $6,000 in prepaid expense related to
an unsuccessful recompletion. Accrued reclamation, restoration, and
dismantlement expense decreased during Q1FY96 because the Company expended
$28,000 to plug the remaining unplugged wells in the field discussed below.
Other accrued expenses decreased during the quarter because the Company received
invoices for its previously accrued audit and tax preparation expense, and
because during Q1FY96 the Company paid its president an accrued $9,000 bonus.
Also during Q1FY96 the Company retired approximately 6,400,000 shares of its
Common Stock, which had the effect of reducing Common Stock, par value, by
$64,000 and additional paid in capital by $594,000. During Q1FY96 the Company
acquired 306,000 shares of its Common Stock at a total cost of $17,000.
The Company owns property which contains oil-contaminated soil. At this time,
the Company cannot reasonably predict what reclamation activities may be
required to restore the property, or their costs. However, based on the
Company's preliminary assessment of the contamination and feasible reclamation
alternatives, the Company esti mates such reclamation and restoration costs
could range from $60,000 to $160,000, of which the Company has accrued $60,000.
As of December 31, 1995, the Company had plugged all of the wells on the
property for a total cost of approximately $43,000. The Company expects to begin
selling equipment from the property and to commence reclamation and restoration
activities during the Summer of 1996. There were no other material changes in
the Company's financial condition during Q1FY96.
At current oil and gas prices, unless the Company's production of oil and gas
increases as the result of acquisitions of producing oil and gas properties,
successful drilling activities, or successful recompletions, the Company is
likely to experience negative cash flow from operations in fiscal 1996. Although
the Company continually evaluates possible acquisitions of producing oil and gas
properties, the market for such properties has become highly competitive, with
properties trading at prices well above those implied by the Company's
acquisition criteria. Therefore, the Company has not consummated a significant
acquisition of interests in producing oil and gas properties since fiscal 1990.

<PAGE>
With the exception of the Company's intention to acquire producing oil and gas
properties, cash flows that may result from such acquisitions, and possible
additional reclamation, restoration, and dismantlement expense, the Company
knows of no trends, events, or uncertainties that have or are reasonably likely
to have a material impact on the Com pany's short-term or long-term liquidity.
Except for cash generated by the operation of the Company's producing oil and
gas properties, asset sales, or interest income, the Company has no internal or
external sources of liquidity other than its working capital. At January 15,
1996 the Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures.
Other income increased from Q1FY95 to Q1FY96 because the Company recognized
income of $9,000 related to an estimated production tax liability for which it
is no longer liable. Production taxes declined from Q1FY95 to Q1FY96 because of
reduced sales. During Q1FY95 the Company recognized $5,000 in exploration
expense related to an attempted recompletion. During Q1FY96 the Company
recognized $8,000 in reclamation, restoration, and dismantlement expense related
to the plugging and abandonment of one well in a field in Wyoming. Depreciation,
depletion, and amortization expense declined from Q1FY95 to Q1FY96 because the
Company's basis in its property and equipment declined. Net income increased
from Q1FY95 to Q1FY96 because a slight reduction in revenue was more than offset
by a reduction in expense.
The Company's sales and net income are functions of the prices of oil, gas, and
natural gas liquids and of the level of production expense, all of which are
highly variable and largely beyond the Company's control. In addition, because
the quantity of oil and gas produced from existing wells declines over time, the
Company's sales and net income will decrease unless rising prices offset
production declines or the Company increases its net production by investing in
the drilling of new wells, in successful workovers, or in the acquisition of
interests in producing oil or gas properties. With the exception of
unanticipated variations in production levels and possible additional
reclamation, restoration, and dismantlement expense, the Company is not aware of
any other trends, events, or uncertainties that have had or that are reasonably
expected to have a material impact on sales or revenue or income from continuing
operations.
