Item 2. Management's Discussion And Analysis
Forward-looking information
This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements. For this purpose, any
statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact may be
deemed to be forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future
events or to our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify
forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "will," "should,"
"expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts,"
"potential" or "continue" or the negative of such terms or other comparable
terminology. These statements are only predictions. Actual events or results may
differ materially. There are a number of factors that could cause our actual
results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking
statements.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking
statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of
activity, performance or achievements. Moreover, we do not assume responsibility
for the accuracy and completeness of such statements. We are under no duty to
update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this prospectus
to conform such statements to actual results.
Business of Issuer
Our primary business is the production and transportation of natural gas in a
five-county region of southeast Kansas which is served by our gas pipeline
network. Our main focus is upon the development of Company-owned gas reserves in
our pipeline region and upon the continued enhancement of the pipeline system.
During the quarter ended November 30, 2000, we have continued to make
significant enhancements to our gas gathering pipeline network which include the
installation of a new gas compressor station near Thayer, Kansas. We also
expended considerable effort during the quarter on the acquisition of over
11,000 acres of new land leases which has added significantly to our inventory
of undeveloped acreage. Currently, we are drilling numerous additional gas wells
and we are making additional enhancements to our pipeline system. Revenues and
net income have increased significantly during this quarter and are expected to
continue growing as our gas volumes increase from the on-going gas development
program.
Results of Operations
The following discussion is based on the consolidated operations of all of our
subsidiaries and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-KSB for
the fiscal year ended May 31, 2000; and should further be read in conjunction
with the financial statements included in this report. Comparisons made between
reporting periods herein are for the quarter ended November 30, 2000 as compared
to the quarter ended a year earlier on November 30, 1999 unless otherwise
stated.
Total revenue for the quarter ended November 30, 2000 was $768,357 which
resulted in net income before income taxes of $134,846. For the comparable
quarterly period ended November 30, 1999 our total revenue was $465,994 with
resulting net income before income taxes of $27,164. Therefore, net income
before income taxes increased 396% for the quarter ended November 30, 2000 as
compared to the year- earlier quarter.

<PAGE>
Revenue from operations for the six month period ended November 30, 2000 was
$1,354,152 which resulted in net income before income taxes of $177,609. For the
comparable six month period ended November 30, 1999 our revenue from operations
was $820,725 with resulting net income before income taxes of $7,090. Therefore,
net income before income taxes increased 2,405% for the six month period ended
November 30, 2000 as compared to the year-earlier period.
These increases in revenue and net income are attributable to significant
increases in pipeline transportation revenue which resulted from both increased
gas prices and gas volumes transported. Another significant revenue event was
the large increase in pipeline development services which reflects the increased
construction and development work being performed by Quest Energy Service, Inc.
on the various gas pipelines.
These revenue and net income figures for the previous quarter and six-month
period represent the highest ever reported by the Company to date. Furthermore,
we expect this trend of increasing revenues to continue because of the growth in
the revenue categories of (1) gas pipeline transmission fees, (2) gas production
revenue, and (3) pipeline and property development. The growing revenue in these
three categories are being generated by the increased development of gas
production in the Company-owned pipeline region.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
During the six month period ended November 30, 2000 the Company invested
$524,528, primarily in the fixed assets of gas properties and pipeline
facilities. Long term notes payable increased $240,122 from the bank financing
which provided the above facility investment less payments made on the bank
notes during the period. Net cash provided from operating activities increased
substantially from $78,672 in the comparable 1999 period to a $237,813 for the
six-month period ended November 30, 2000, which reflects the continued
improvement in the amount of cash being generated by the Company's pipelines and
gas wells.
The Company has a line of credit with a local bank for the development of new
gas wells and pipeline improvements. We also expect to supplement the bank line
of credit with other capital raised privately in order to fund a more aggressive
gas well drilling program. We expect to adequately fund on-going drilling of new
gas wells from a combination of the bank financing, privately raised capital,
and internally generated cash flow.
Given the Company's emphasis on investment in its gas reserves and pipelines,
cash reserves are not expected to grow significantly since cash is being re-
invested in these long-term assets. Also, debt incurred for new development has
increased bank payments which has been more than offset by the new revenue
created from gas sales and pipeline transportation. Therefore, growth on our
balance sheet is expected to occur primarily in the gas property and pipeline
asset section instead of in the current asset section.
