                    NEROX ENERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
                  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                                  (Unaudited)


1. Summary of certain accounting policies
- -----------------------------------------

   The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Nerox Energy
   Corporation and Subsidiary (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance
   with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information
   required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
   statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of
   normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation
   have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30,
   1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending
   December 31, 1996.  These statements should be read in conjunction with the
   consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
   Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

2. Going concern
- ----------------

   The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
   conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate
   continuation of the Company as a going concern.  However, the Company has
   experienced significant losses; and its oil and gas production revenues
   declined significantly in 1994 due to declining oil and gas prices.  In 1995,
   the Company purchased a coal mine, and while it has a contract to sell all
   the coal it can produce in the near future, additional capital infusion is
   necessary to actually begin mining operations.  These factors raise
   substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

   Management is currently seeking additional financing and the Company's
   majority stockholder has accepted equity in settlement of demand notes with a
   balance of $826,390 at December 31, 1995.  In addition, management believes
   that oil and gas production will increase due to increases in prices, while
   production expenses will decline, thus generating positive cash flow from
   that segment of operations.

3. Acquisition of minority interest
- -----------------------------------

   In September 1996, the Company reached an agreement with the minority
shareholders to buy back the minority interest for $20,000 and royalties on coal
extracted and sold in the future. Total royalties will not exceed $105,000 for
each year and $1,000,000 in total.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

   RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.  Total revenues from oil and gas sales for the first
   ---------------------                                                      
   nine months of 1996 were $112,181, a decrease of 12% from $127,453 for the
   first nine months of 1995.

     Oil and gas production costs have decreased when compared to revenues
   produced due to significant well re-work, repairs and re-drilling in progress
   in 1995, but completed by the first quarter of 1996.  General and
   administrative expenses increased mostly due to additional fees associated
   with investor relations, promotional efforts and expenses for its subsidiary
   ("NPSI") which was reactivated in the third quarter of 1995.  Interest costs
   increased from $30,165 to $174,308 as the Company has increasingly had to
   rely on borrowings to finance its operations.  The minority interest in the
   loss of subsidiary occurred due to the sale of 19% of NPSI to Hobbs
   Industries ("Hobbs").  This minority interest was reacquired in September
   1996.  See note 3 to financial statements.

   LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.
   ------------------------------- 

     At September 30, 1996, the Company had current liabilities totaling
   $1,419,977 and current assets of $414,469 for a working capital deficit of
   $1,005,508 due primarily to operating losses and short-term borrowings to
   purchase and develop a coal mine.  Management is seeking additional equity
   financing for the short-term until coal production commences.

                               OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

   On August 10, 1995 NPSI entered into an agreement with Hobbs to purchase all
interest of Hobbs in a coal mine located near Sutton, Alaska and all mining
equipment, supplies and other property used or useful in connection with the
coal mine.  In an effort to avoid the agreement Hobbs filed a lawsuit against
NPSI and others in December 1995 seeking to avoid the August 10, 1995 contract
and also seeks several million dollars in damages.  In September 1996 NPSI
reached an agreement with Hobbs.  For $20,000 and future royalties on coal
extracted and sold, the Company purchased Hobbs' 19% minority interest in NPSI.
Royalties paid will not exceed $105,000 in any year or $1,000,000 in total.

   Exhibit 27.  Included in this 10-Q filing
   ----------                               

   Form 8-K.  On September 26, 1996 the registrant filed a Form 8-K to report
   --------                                                                  
the resignation of its certifying accountants, Saddington.Cacciamatta. In
connection with the audits of the two fiscal years ended December 31, 1995 and
the subsequent interim period, there were no disagreements with
Saddington.Cacciamatta on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which
disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to
make reference to the subject matter of disagreement in connection with their
report.

   The information set forth herein reflects all adjustments which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the
interim period.

                                  SIGNATURES

   Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, the
registrant has duly caused this report to be singed on its behalf by the
undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
