Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
1. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared by the Registrant in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements have been condensed
or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although management
believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, the accompanying
financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair state-
ment of the results for the interim periods presented. It is suggested
that these consolidated financial statements be used in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in
the Registrant's 1996 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.
2. The consolidated financial statements included herein are consolidated
with the accounts of Petrolind Drilling Funds, Inc. and Realco, Inc.,
both wholly owned subsidiaries of the Registrant, neither of which was
active during 1996 or 1995.
3. Net income per share of common stock is computed on the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the three months ended March 31. The
weighted average number of shares outstanding was determined by totaling
the number of shares outstanding at the end of each month and dividing
that total by the number of months.
Total Number of
Shares Outstanding
1997 1996
---- ----
January 31 1,597,196 1,597,241
February 28 1,597,196 1,597,241
March 31 1,597,196 1,597,241
4. The expected tax benefit resulting from operating losses for the first
three months of 1997 has not been recorded because it is not expected to
be realizable. Additionally, there were no significant changes in the
temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the
deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities at March 31, 1997.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Oil and gas sales revenues were slightly lower during the first quarter
of 1997, caused principally by a slight decline in production due to excessive
amounts of rainfall as compared to the 1996 period. The Company's net loss
increased to $55,300, or ($.04) per share, compared to a net loss of $42,209,
or ($.03) per share in the 1996 period.
With an approximate 1.4% decrease in revenues and an approximate 3.5%
increase in expenses, the Company sustained an operating loss of $51,143 in
the first quarter of 1997, compared to an operating loss of $39,922 in the
first quarter of 1996. Oil prices averaged $20.91 per barrel during the first
quarter of 1997, compared to an average of $18.00 per barrel in the 1996
period.
The Company had cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 1997, of $217,375,
compared to $218,355 at the end of the 1996 fiscal year.
Management estimates that it owes $286,605 from the settlement of the
Horne Lease dispute with Oryx to owners of other interests in the Horne Lease.
