ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ability of the Company to Continue
- ----------------------------------
The Company has had a net operating loss carryforward of $114,061 since
inception and has very limited working capital. The Company will need additional
working capital in order to continue as a going concern and the management
believes they can accomplish this objective through additional equity funding
however there is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain this
objective.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
At July 31, 1997 the Company had a contingent liability of $500,000 and did not
have assets with which to meet the potential obligation. See note 4 of the
financial statements
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
The Company has had no operations during this reporting period.
Regulation S stock offering and sale
- ------------------------------------
During March and April 1997 the Registrant completed a Regulation S stock
offering and sale of 13,000,000 shares of common stock with net proceeds of
$130,000. The proceeds of the sale were used to purchase marketable securities
and an interest in a gas and oil property.
Trade of Marketable Securities for an Interest in an Oil Well
- -------------------------------------------------------------
During July 1997 the registrant traded marketable securities, consisiting of
7,600 shares of Synfuel Technology and 6,700 shares of Gold Coast Resoruces, for
a 25% working interest in one oil well, covering 97 acres, located in Pleasants
County, West Virginia. The fair value of the oil well is considered to be the
cost of the stocks given in trade and will be amortized to expense over its
useful life as soon as the well becomes active. The well is presently inactive
and the registrant has no plans to reactivate it within the coming year. The
lease has an indefinite expiration date and the land owner has retained a 1/8
royalty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. ORGANIZATION
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada on February
25, 1986 with authorized capital stock of 500,000,000 shares at $0.001 par value
and on March 28, 1995 the authorized capital stock was decreased to 50,000,000
shares at $0.001 par value.
On March 17, 1997 the Company changed its name to Superior Oil Corporation
from Carousel Capital, Inc.
During March and April 1997 the Company completed a public offering and sale of
13,000,000 shares of its common capital stock.
The Company completed a reverse stock split on November 28, 1995 at 1,000 shares
for one share. This report has been prepared showing after stock split shares
from inception.
Since its inception the company has been in the development stage and has been
engaged in seeking business opportunities.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounting Methods
- ------------------
The Company recognizes income and expenses based on the accrual method of
accounting.
Dividend Policy
- ---------------
The Company has not yet adopted a policy regarding payment of dividends.
Income Taxes
- ------------
At January 31, 1997, the Company had a net operating loss carry forward of
$114,061. The tax benefit from the loss carry forward has been fully offset by a
valuation reserve, because the use of the future tax benefit is doubtful, since
the Company has no operations and there has been substantial changes in the
stockholders.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
- -------------------------
Earnings (loss) per share amounts are computed based on the weighted average
number of shares actually outstanding after the reverse stock split.

expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were assumed in
preparing these financial statements.
Financial instruments
- ---------------------
The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including the oil leases and
accounts payable, are considered by management to be their estimated fair
values. These values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the
Company could realize in a current market exchange.

5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The officers and directors of the Company are involved in other business

ventures which also may require their attention. If a specific business
opportunity becomes available, such persons may face a conflict in selecting
between the Company and their other business interests. The Company has
formulated no policy for the resolution of such conflicts.
6. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
See note 4 regarding a $500,000 commitment to develop an oil and gas property.

additional working capital and the management of the Company has developed a
strategy, which it believes will accomplish this objective through additional
equity funding which will enable the Company to continue operations into the
future.
