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 statement 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 1997 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 1997 or 1996.
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
1998 1997
---- ----
January 31 1,597,196 1,597,196
February 28 1,597,196 1,597,196
March 31 1,597,196 1,597,196
4. The expected tax benefit resulting from operating losses for the first
three months of 1998 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, 1998.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Even with an increase of 8.9% in production, oil and gas sales revenues
were significantly lower during the first quarter of 1998, caused by a 34.7%
decline in oil prices as compared to the 1997 period. The Company's net loss
increased to $100,661, or ($.06) per share, compared to a net loss of $55,300,
or ($.04) per share in the 1997 period.
The Company sustained an operating loss of $93,549 in the first quarter
of 1998, compared to an operating loss of $51,143 in the first quarter of
1997. Oil prices averaged $13.66 per barrel during the first quarter of 1998,
compared to an average of $20.91 per barrel in the 1997 period.
The Company had cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 1998, of $133,185,
compared to $174,809 at the end of the 1997 fiscal year.
Management estimates that it owes $306,844 from the settlement of the
Horne Lease dispute with Oryx to owners of other interests in the Horne Lease.
