Notes to Financial Statements
1. Organization
Southwest Royalties, Inc. Income Fund VI was organized under the
laws of the state of Tennessee on December 4, 1986, for the purpose of
acquiring producing oil and gas properties and to produce and market
crude oil and natural gas produced from such properties for a term of
50 years, unless terminated at an earlier date as provided for in the
Partnership Agreement. The Partnership sells its oil and gas
production to a variety of purchasers with the prices it receives being
dependent upon the oil and gas economy. Southwest Royalties, Inc.
serves as the Managing General Partner and H. H. Wommack, III, as the
individual general partner. Revenues, costs and expenses are allocated
as follows:
Limited General
Partners Partners
-------- --------
Interest income on capital contributions 100% -
Oil and gas sales 90% 10%
All other revenues 90% 10%
Organization and offering costs (1) 100% -
Amortization of organization costs 100% -
Property acquisition costs 100% -
Gain/loss on property disposition 90% 10%
Operating and administrative costs (2) 90% 10%
Depreciation, depletion and amortization
of oil and gas properties 90% 10%
All other costs 90% 10%
(1)All organization costs in excess of 3% of initial capital
contributions will be paid by the Managing General Partner and
will be treated as a capital contribution. The Partnership paid
the Managing General Partner an amount equal to 3% of initial
capital contributions for such organization costs.
(2)Administrative costs in any year which exceed 2% of capital
contributions shall be paid by the Managing General Partner and
will be treated as a capital contribution.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The interim financial information as of June 30, 2000, and for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2000, is unaudited. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant
to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. However, in the opinion of management, these interim
financial statements include all the necessary adjustments to fairly
present the results of the interim periods and all such adjustments
are of a normal recurring nature. The interim consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 1999.
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
General
Southwest Royalties, Inc. Income Fund VI was organized as a Tennessee
limited partnership on December 4, 1986. The offering of such limited
partnership interests began August 25, 1986, minimum capital requirements
were met October 3, 1986 and concluded January 29, 1987, with total limited
partner contributions of $10,000,000.
The Partnership was formed to acquire royalty and net profits interests in
producing oil and gas properties, to produce and market crude oil and
natural gas produced from such properties, and to distribute the net
proceeds from operations to the limited and general partners. Net revenues
from producing oil and gas properties will not be reinvested in other
revenue producing assets except to the extent that production facilities
and wells are improved or reworked or where methods are employed to improve
or enable more efficient recovery of oil and gas reserves.
Increases or decreases in Partnership revenues and, therefore,
distributions to partners will depend primarily on changes in the prices
received for production, changes in volumes of production sold, lease
operating expenses, enhanced recovery projects, offset drilling activities
pursuant to farm-out arrangements, sales of properties, and the depletion
of wells. Since wells deplete over time, production can generally be
expected to decline from year to year.
Well operating costs and general and administrative costs usually decrease
with production declines; however, these costs may not decrease
proportionately. Net income available for distribution to the partners is
therefore expected to fluctuate in later years based on these factors.
Based on current conditions, management anticipates performing necessary
workovers during the next few years to enhance production. The Partnership
has the opportunity for potential increases with little decline.
Thereafter, the Partnership could possibly experience a normal decline.
Oil and Gas Properties
Oil and gas properties are accounted for at cost under the full-cost
method. Under this method, all productive and nonproductive costs incurred
in connection with the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and
gas reserves are capitalized. Gain or loss on the sale of oil and gas
properties is not recognized unless significant oil and gas reserves are
involved.
The Partnership's policy for depreciation, depletion and amortization of
oil and gas properties is computed under the units of revenue method.
Under the units of revenue method, depreciation, depletion and amortization
is computed on the basis of current gross revenues from production in
relation to future gross revenues, based on current prices, from estimated
production of proved oil and gas reserves.
Should the net capitalized costs exceed the estimated present value of oil
and gas reserves, discounted at 10%, such excess costs would be charged to
current expense. As of June 30, 2000, the net capitalized costs did not
exceed the estimated present value of oil and gas reserves.

Results of Operations
A. General Comparison of the Quarters Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999
The following table provides certain information regarding performance
factors for the quarters ended June 30, 2000 and 1999:
Three Months
Ended Percentage
June 30, Increase
2000 1999 (Decrease)
---- ---- ----------
Average price per barrel of oil $ 28.04 15.85 77%
Average price per mcf of gas $ 4.60 2.01 129%
Oil production in barrels 8,300 14,000 (41%)
Gas production in mcf 91,200 119,180 (23%)
Income from net profits interests $ 368,667 257,027 43%
Partnership distributions $ 250,000 150,000 67%
Limited partner distributions $ 225,000 135,000 67%
Per unit distribution to limited
partners $ 11.25 6.75 67%
Number of limited partner units 20,000 20,000
Revenues
The Partnership's income from net profits interests increased to $368,667
from $257,027 for the quarters ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively,
an increase of 43%. The principal factors affecting the comparison of the
quarters ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 are as follows:
1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
increased during the quarter ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the
quarter ended June 30, 1999 by 77%, or $12.19 per barrel, resulting in
an increase of approximately $170,700 in income from net profits
interests. Oil sales represented 36% of total oil and gas sales during
the quarter ended June 30, 2000 as compared to 48% during the quarter
ended June 30, 1999.
The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership
increased during the same period by 129%, or $2.59 per mcf, resulting
in an increase of approximately $308,700 in income from net profits
interests.
The total increase in income from net profits interests due to the
change in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately
$479,400. The market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile
over the past decade, and management expects a certain amount of
volatility to continue in the foreseeable future.
<PAGE>
2. Oil production decreased approximately 5,700 barrels or 41% during the
quarter ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the quarter ended June 30,
1999, resulting in a decrease of approximately $159,800 in income from
net profits interests.
Gas production decreased approximately 27,980 mcf or 23% during the
same period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $128,700 in
income from net profits interests.
The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the
change in production is approximately $288,500. The decrease in
production is due primarily to one well, which a workover was performed
on during the first quarter of 1999, dramatically increasing production
during the second quarter of 1999. This same well by year end 1999 had
shut down and was no longer a producing well, thus the decrease for the
quarter ended June 30, 2000. The decrease in production for the
quarter due to the above well was partially offset by increased
production from wells previously shut-in due to low oil and gas prices
and in turn the inability to perform repairs and maintenance.
3. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 39% higher, or
approximately $78,800 more during the quarter ended June 30, 2000 as
compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1999. The increase in lease
operating costs and production taxes is primarily a result of the
higher oil and gas prices received by the Partnership. Higher prices
have made it possible for the Partnership to perform needed major
repairs and maintenance. Since production taxes are based on gross
revenues, the increase in oil and gas prices have directly increased
production taxes.
Costs and Expenses
Total costs and expenses decreased to $49,386 from $81,386 for the quarters
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, a decrease of 39%. The
decrease is the result of lower depletion expense, partially offset by an
increase in general and administrative expense.
1. General and administrative costs consists of independent accounting and
engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General
Partner personnel costs. General and administrative costs increased 8%
or approximately $3,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2000 as
compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1999.
2. Depletion expense decreased to $7,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
2000 from $42,000 for the same period in 1999. This represents a
decrease of 83%. Depletion is calculated using the units of revenue
method of amortization based on a percentage of current period gross
revenues to total future gross oil and gas revenues, as estimated by
the Partnership's independent petroleum consultants. Contributing
factors to the decline in depletion expense between the comparative
periods were the increase in the price of oil and gas used to determine
the Partnership's reserves for July 1, 2000 as compared to 1999.

B. General Comparison of the Six Month Periods Ended June 30, 2000 and
1999
The following table provides certain information regarding performance
factors for the six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999:
Six Months
Ended Percentage
June 30, Increase
2000 1999 (Decrease)
---- ---- ----------
Average price per barrel of oil $ 27.44 13.75 100%
Average price per mcf of gas $ 3.82 1.83 109%
Oil production in barrels 17,200 25,000 (31%)
Gas production in mcf 184,700 219,800 (16%)
Income from net profits interests $ 718,592 367,946 95%
Partnership distributions $ 475,000 150,000 217%
Limited partner distributions $ 427,500 135,000 217%
Per unit distribution to limited
partners $ 21.38 6.75 217%
Number of limited partner units 20,000 20,000
Revenues
The Partnership's income from net profits interests increased to $718,592
from $367,946 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively, an increase of 95%. The principal factors affecting the
comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 are as follows:
1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
increased during the six months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the
six months ended June 30, 1999 by 100%, or $13.69 per barrel, resulting
in an increase of approximately $342,300 in income from net profits
interests. Oil sales represented 40% of total oil and gas sales during
the six months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to 46% during the six
months ended June 30, 1999.
The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership
increased during the same period by 109%, or $1.99 per mcf, resulting
in an increase of approximately $437,400 in income from net profits
interests.
The total increase in income from net profits interests due to the
change in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately
$779,700. The market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile
over the past decade, and management expects a certain amount of
volatility to continue in the foreseeable future.
<PAGE>
2. Oil production decreased approximately 7,800 barrels or 31% during the
six months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the six months ended June
30, 1999, resulting in a decrease of approximately $214,000 in income
from net profits interests.
Gas production decreased approximately 35,100 mcf or 16% during the
same period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $134,100 in
income from net profits interests.
The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the
change in production is approximately $348,100. The decrease in
production is due primarily to one well, which a workover was performed
on during the first quarter of 1999, dramatically increasing production
during the second quarter of 1999. This same well by year end 1999 had
shut down and was no longer a producing well, thus the decrease for the
quarter ended June 30, 2000. The decrease in production for the
quarter due to the above well was partially offset by increased
production from wells previously shut-in due to low oil and gas prices
and in turn the inability to perform repairs and maintenance.
3. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 22% higher, or
approximately $81,200 more during the six months ended June 30, 2000 as
compared to the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in lease
operating costs and production taxes is primarily a result of the
higher oil and gas prices received by the Partnership. Higher prices
have made it possible for the Partnership to perform needed major
repairs and maintenance. Since production taxes are based on gross
revenues, the increase in oil and gas prices have directly increased
production taxes.
Costs and Expenses
Total costs and expenses decreased to $127,878 from $164,931 for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, a decrease of 22%. The
decrease is the result of lower depletion expense, partially offset by an
increase in general and administrative expense.
1. General and administrative costs consists of independent accounting and
engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General
Partner personnel costs. General and administrative costs increased 1%
or approximately $900 during the six months ended June 30, 2000 as
compared to the six months ended June 30, 1999.
2. Depletion expense decreased to $48,000 for the six months ended June
30, 2000 from $86,000 for the same period in 1999. This represents a
decrease of 44%. Depletion is calculated using the units of revenue
method of amortization based on a percentage of current period gross
revenues to total future gross oil and gas revenues, as estimated by
the Partnership's independent petroleum consultants. Contributing
factors to the decline in depletion expense between the comparative
periods were the increase in the price of oil and gas used to determine
the Partnership's reserves for July 1, 2000 as compared to 1999.
<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The primary source of cash is from operations, the receipt of income from
interests in oil and gas properties. The Partnership knows of no material
change, nor does it anticipate any such change.
Cash flows provided by operating activities were approximately $485,300 in
the six months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to approximately $226,400 in
the six months ended June 30, 1999. The primary source of the 2000 cash
flow from operating activities was profitable operations.
There were no cash flows provided by investing activities in the six months
ended June 30, 2000. Cash flows used in investing activities were
approximately $38 in the six months ended June 30, 1999.
Cash flows used in financing activities were approximately $474,900 in the
six months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to approximately $149,200 in the
six months ended June 30, 1999. The only use in financing activities was
the distributions to partners.
Total distributions during the six months ended June 30, 2000 were $475,000
of which $427,500 was distributed to the limited partners and $47,500 to
the general partners. The per unit distribution to limited partners during
the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $21.38. Total distributions during
the six months ended June 30, 1999 were $150,000 of which $135,000 was
distributed to the limited partners and $15,000 to the general partners.
The per unit distribution to limited partners during the six months ended
June 30, 1999 was $6.75.
The sources for the 2000 distributions of $475,000 were oil and gas
operations of approximately $485,300, resulting in excess cash for
contingencies or subsequent distributions. The sources for the 1999
distributions of $150,000 were oil and gas operations of approximately
$226,400 and the change of oil and gas properties $(38), resulting in
excess cash for contingencies or subsequent distributions.
Since inception of the Partnership, cumulative monthly cash distributions
of $15,626,459 have been made to the partners. As of June 30, 2000,
$14,079,282 or $703.96 per limited partner unit has been distributed to the
limited partners, representing a 140% return of the capital contributed.
As of June 30, 2000, the Partnership had approximately $522,100 in working
capital. The Managing General Partner knows of no unusual contractual
commitments and believes the revenues generated from operations are
adequate to meet the needs of the Partnership.
<PAGE>
Liquidity - Managing General Partner
The Managing General Partner has a highly leveraged capital structure with
over $50.1 million principal due by December 31, 2000 and $15.3 million
interest payments due within the next twelve months on its debt
obligations. The Managing General Partner is currently in the process of
renegotiating the terms of its various obligations with its creditors
and/or attempting to seek new lenders or equity investors. Additionally,
the Managing General Partner would consider disposing of certain assets in
order to meet its obligations.
There can be no assurance that the Managing General Partner's debt
restructuring efforts will be successful or that the lenders will agree to
a course of action consistent with the Managing General Partners
requirements in restructuring the obligations. Even if such agreement is
reached, it may require approval of additional lenders, which is not
assured. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the sales of assets
can be successfully accomplished on terms acceptable to the Managing
General Partner. Under current circumstances, the Managing General
Partner's ability to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability
to (1) successfully restructure its obligations or obtain additional
financing as may be required, (2) maintain compliance with all debt
covenants, (3) generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a
timely basis, and (4) achieve satisfactory levels of future earnings. If
the Managing General Partner is unsuccessful in its efforts, it may be
unable to meet its obligations making it necessary to undertake such other
actions as may be appropriate to preserve asset values.
