MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
IN THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997
Material Changes in Financial Conditions
Vineyard Oil & Gas Company's cash position increased $381,398 for the nine
month period end September 30, 1997, $335,113 of which occurred in the three
month period ending September 30, 1997. The net increase in cash resulting
from receivable collections and payment of accounts payable was $367,119 for
the nine month period and $354,858 for the three month period, accounting for
the majority of the cash increase. Inventories decreased slightly, $18,064, or
9%, in the nine month period due to normal activity. The increase in other
assets of $64,844 and $27,418 for the nine and three month periods was due
principally to additional investment in a limited liability corporation. Other
current liabilities did not vary materially.
The Company had capital expenditures of $3,976 in the nine month period
ended September 30, 1997. The allowance for depreciation increased $63,925,
and $20,185 for the nine and three month periods, the amount of depreciation
and amortization charged to operations.
Long term debt decreased $48,132 and $11,996 for the nine and three month
periods ended September 30, 1997. The debt was paid off in August, 1997, and
no new debt was incurred as of September 30, 1997.
Shareholders' equity increased $45,482 for the nine month period and
decreased $20,362 for the three month period. These changes represent the
results of operations for the respective periods.
Material Changes and Results of Operations
Earned revenues increased $1,987,553 for the nine month period and
decreased $67,576 for the three month period ended September 30, 1997, as
compared to similar periods in 1996. The major reason for the nine month
increase is the increase in volume of natural gas sales in 1997 of $1,925,143.
Gas marketing comprises 87% of total revenues. The same is true for cost of
earned revenues. Of the increase of $2,007,730 in costs, gas purchases
increased $1,964,953. Gas purchases comprise 87% of the total cost of earned
revenues.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $13,811, or 4%, for
the nine month period and $6,201, or 5%, for the three month period ended
September 30, 1997, as compared to the same periods in 1996. There were no
unusual increases within this area. Interest expense decreased $6,162 and
$2,155 for the nine and three month period due to decreasing loan balances
during the period.
Net income decreased $27,462 for the nine month period and increased
$115,078 for the three month period ended September 30, 1997, as compared to
similar periods in 1996. The three month increase over 1996 is due to
increased marketing activity over the three month period as compared to the
same period in 1996.
