PART I
Item 1. Description of Business
General
Enex 88-89 Income and Retirement Fund - Series 1, L.P. (the
"Company") was formed under the New Jersey Uniform Limited Partnership Act
(1976) on November 12, 1987 and commenced operations on June 10, 1988 with
aggregate subscriptions of $1,802,733, $1,784,706 of which was received from 282
limited partners, including investors whose distributions from earlier
partnerships sponsored by the Company's general partner, Enex Resources
Corporation ("Enex") were automatically invested in the Company.
The Company is engaged in the oil and gas business through the
ownership of non-operating interests in producing oil and gas properties as
noted in Item 2, below. A non-operating interest typically entitles the holder
to receive a specified share of such production, without obligation to develop
or operate such property, or bear any development or operating costs (such
obligations being assumed by the owner of the working interest in the property).
The Company's non-operating interests are net profits royalties or
other royalty interests which entitle the Company to a share of gross revenues
from producing oil and gas properties measured by a specified percentage of the
net profits realized by the owners of the underlying working interests in such
properties, after deducting operating costs, geological and engineering costs,
property, severance and other taxes, and certain other specified expenses. If
such taxes, operating costs or other expenses exceed gross revenues in any
specified measuring period, a net profits royalty holder will not be liable for
payment of any portion of such excess, but a percentage of such excess equal to
the specified percentage of net profits (together with interest thereon) will be
carried over to subsequent periods and will reduce future amounts accruing to
the holder. The Company's net profits royalties and other non-operating
interests are generally derived from working interests in oil and gas properties
owned by other affiliates of Enex.
The Company owns royalty interest on certain oil and gas
properties. A "royalty interest" is the interest retained by the lessor in the
lease and payable out of 100% of proceeds before deducting any other interests.
The Company also owns overriding royalty interests in certain oil and gas
properties. An "overriding royalty interest" is an interest in a property which
was carved out of the working interest that is not subject to most operating
costs associated with the property.
The Company does not own working interests nor does it engage
directly in any drilling, completing or operating activities, but may benefit
from such activities undertaken by the owners of the working interests in
properties burdened by the Company's non-operating interests. The Company's
operations are concentrated in a single industry segment.
The principal executive office of the Company is maintained at
Suite 200, Three Kingwood Place, Kingwood, Texas 77339. The telephone number at
this office is (713) 358-8401. The Company has no regional offices.
I-1
<PAGE>
The Company has no employees. On March 1, 1997, Enex and its subsidiaries
employed 23 persons.
Marketing
The marketing of oil and gas produced by the Company is affected by
a number of factors which are beyond the Company's control, the exact nature of
which cannot be accurately predicted. These factors include the quantity and
price of crude oil imports, fluctuating supply and demand, pipeline and other
transportation facilities, the marketing of competitive fuels, state and federal
regulation of oil and gas production and distribution and other matters
affecting the availability of a ready market. All of these factors are extremely
volatile.
Samson Production Services Company accounted for 85% of the
Company's total sales in 1996. Samson Production Services Company and Global
Natural Resources Corporation accounted for 84% and 12%, respectively, of the
Company's total sales in 1995. No other purchaser individually accounted for
more than 10% of such sales. Although the Company marketed a significant portion
of its sales to the above noted companies, such a concentration does not pose a
significant risk due to the commodity nature of the Company's products.
The Company's operators of the properties are noted in Item 2
below. Although a significant portion of the Company's properties were operated
by a limited number of operators, this concentration does not pose a significant
risk since the Company's rights are secured by joint operating agreements.
Environmental and Conservation Regulation
State regulatory authorities in the states in which the Company
owns net profits interests in producing properties are empowered to make and
enforce regulations to prevent waste of oil and gas and to protect correlative
rights and opportunities to produce oil and gas for owners of a common
reservoir. Each of such regulatory authorities also regulates the amount of oil
and gas produced by assigning allowable rates of production, which may be
increased or decreased in accordance with supply and demand. Requirements
regarding the prevention and clean-up of pollution and similar environmental
matters are also generally applicable. The costs, if any, that may be incurred
in this regard cannot be predicted.
The existence of such regulations has had no material adverse
effects on the Company's operations to date, and the cost of compliance has not
yet been material. There are no material administrative or judicial proceedings
arising under such laws or regulations pending against the Company. The Company
is unable to assess or predict the impact that compliance with environmental and
pollution control laws and regulations may have on its future operations,
capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.
Tax Laws
The operations of the Company are affected by the federal income
tax laws contained in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"). In general, the limited partners of the Company will generate income
from the receipt of royalties and net profits interests and will be entitled to
a depletion
I-2
<PAGE>
deduction. Net income, if any, will generally be characterized as portfolio
income under the Code and will be taxed in the same manner as dividends and
interest.
Partnerships with interests that are "publicly traded" are taxed as
corporations unless at least 90% of their income is "qualifying income." Because
the Company's income will be qualifying income for this purpose, the Company
will not be taxed as a corporation under this rule.
Item 2. Description of Property
Presented below is a summary of the Company's property
acquisitions.
CORINNE acquisition. The Company acquired royalty and mineral
interests in 16 wells in Corinne Field, Monroe County, Mississippi, effective
July 1, 1988 from Lehndorff of Dallas, Texas for $642,950. The Corinne
acquisition is operated by Samson Resources Corp. The Company owns royalty
interests ranging from .05% to 3.57% in the wells in the Corinne acquisition at
December 31, 1996.
BYRUM acquisition. An overriding royalty interest in the Byrum 1-28
well located in Onondago Field, Ingham County, Michigan was purchased for
$32,640 from Pasadena Oil & Gas Corp. effective March 1, 1989. The Byrum
acquisition is operated by Global Natural Resources, Inc. The Company owns a
1.02% royalty interest in the wells in the Byrum acquisition at December 31,
1996.
BAGLEY acquisition. Net profits royalty interests in 7 oil wells
located in Bagley Field, Otsego County, Michigan, were acquired for $356,667.
The Bagley acquisition is operated by Terra Energy, Ltd. The Company owns net
profits royalty interests ranging from 2.23% to 2.25% in the wells in the Bagley
acquisition at December 31, 1996.
MUSTANG ISLAND acquisition. Effective August 29, 1989, an
overriding royalty interest in State Tract 344 #1 located in Red Fish Bay,
Nueces County, Texas, was purchased from Sam and Betty Pettigrew for $110,187.
The Mustang Island acquisition is operated by CXY Energy, Inc. The Company owns
a 3.08% overriding royalty interest in the wells in the Mustang Island
acquisition at December 31, 1996.
LAKE DECADE acquisition. Effective July 1, 1989, net profits
royalty interests in 2 gas wells in Lake Decade Field, Terrebonne Parish,
Louisiana, were purchased for $413,264. The Lake Decade acquisition is operated
by Southwestern Energy Production. The Company owns net profits royalty
interests ranging from 0.4853% to 0.6847% in the wells in the Lake Decade
acquisition at December 31, 1996.
Purchase price as used above is defined as the actual contract
price plus finders' fees, if applicable. Miscellaneous acquisition expenses,
subsequent capital additions, etc. are not included.
Oil and Gas Reserves
For quantitative information regarding the Company's oil and gas
reserves, please see Supplementary Oil and Gas Information and related tables
which follow the Notes to Financial Statements in Item 7 of this report. The
Company has not filed any current oil and gas reserve estimates or included
I-3
<PAGE>
any such estimates in reports to any federal or foreign governmental authority
or agency, including the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Proved oil and gas reserves reported herein are based on
engineering reports prepared by the petroleum engineering consulting firm of H.
J. Gruy and Associates, Inc. The reserves included in this report are estimates
only and should not be construed as exact quantities. Future conditions may
affect recovery of estimated reserves and revenue, and all reserves may be
subject to revision as more performance data become available. The proved
reserves used in this report conform to the applicable definitions promulgated
by the Securities and Exchange Commission. No major discovery or other favorable
or adverse event that could potentially cause a significant change in the
estimated proved reserves has occurred since December 31, 1996.
Net Oil and Gas Production
The following table shows for the years ended December 31, 1996 and
1995, the approximate production attributable to the Company's oil and gas
interests. The figures in the table represent "net production"; i.e., production
owned by the Company and produced to its interest after deducting royalty and
other similar interests. All production occurred in the United States.
1996 1995
---- ----
Crude oil and condensate (Bbls).................... 1,013 1,117

Dividends
The Company made cash distributions to partners of $2 per $500
investment in 1995. The Company discontinued the payment of distributions in the
second quarter of 1995. Future distributions are dependent upon, among other
things, an increase in the prices received for oil and gas. The Company will
continue to recover its reserves and reduce obligations in 1997. Based upon
current projected cash flows from its property, it does not appear that the
Company will have sufficient net cash flow after debt service to pay
distributions in the near future.

Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
Results of Operations
This discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements of the Company and the notes thereto included in this Form 10-KSB.
Oil and gas sales increased to $45,540 in 1996 from $36,385 in 1995.
This represents an increase of $9,155 or 25%. Oil sales decreased by $1,241 or
9%. A 9% decline in oil production caused sales to decrease by $1,325. This
decrease was partially offset by a 1% increase in the average oil net sales
price. Gas sales increased by $10,396 or 47%. A 4% increase in gas production
increased sales by $921. A 42% increase in the average gas net sales price
increased sales by an additional $9,475. The slight increase in average net oil
sales price was primarily the result of higher prices in the overall market for
the sale of oil, partially offset by higher operating costs charged against the
Company's net profits royalty properties, especially the Bagley acquisition,
which had a work over in the third quarter of 1996. The decrease in oil
production was primarily the result of natural production declines. The increase
in gas production was primarily due to the successful completion of a work over
on the Bagley acquisition in the third quarter of 1996. The increase in the
average gas net sales price was primarily due to higher prices in the overall
market for the sale of gas.
Depletion expense decreased to $14,307 in 1996 from $53,087 in 1995.
This represents a decrease of $38,780 or 73%. The changes in production, noted
above, reduced depletion expense by $124. A 73% decrease in the depletion rate
reduced depletion expense by an additional $38,656. The decrease in the
depletion rate was primarily the result of the recognition of a $333,294
impairment of property in the first quarter of 1996, partially offset by a
downward revision of the oil and gas reserves during 1996.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of," which
requires certain assets to be reviewed for impairment whenever events or
circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Prior to this
pronouncement, the Company assessed properties on an aggregate basis. Upon
adoption of SFAS 121, the Company began assessing properties on an individual
basis, wherein total capitalized costs may not exceed the property's fair market
value. The fair market value of each property was determined by H. J. Gruy and
Associates Inc., ("Gruy"). To determine the fair market value, Gruy estimated
each property's oil and gas reserves, applied certain assumptions regarding
price and cost escalations, applied a 10% discount factor for time and certain
discount factors for risk, location, type of ownership interest, category of
reserves, operational characteristics, and other factors. In the first quarter
of 1996, the Company recognized a non-cash impairment provision of $333,294 for
certain oil and gas properties due to market conditions and reserve revisions on
the Lake Decade acquisition, which indicated that the carrying amounts were not
fully recoverable.
General and administrative increased to $19,233 in 1996 from $17,990
in 1995. This increase of $1,243 or 7% was primarily due to more staff time
being required to manage the Company's operations in 1996 and a $1,045 increase
in direct expenses incurred by the Company in 1996. The increase in direct
expenses was due to higher audit and tax preparation fees in 1996.
II-2
<PAGE>
Capital Resources and Liquidity
The Company's cash flow from operations is a direct result of the
amount of net proceeds realized from the sale of oil and gas production.
Accordingly, the changes in cash flow from 1995 to 1996 are due to the changes
in oil and gas sales, noted above. It is the general partner's intention to
distribute substantially all of the Company's available net cash flow to the
Company's partners.
The Company will continue to recover its reserves and distribute to
the partners the net proceeds realized from the sale of oil and gas production
after payment of debt. The Company plans to repay the amount owed to the general
partner over a five year period. Distributions decreased from 1995 to 1996 due
primarily to the repayment of debt in 1996. The Company discontinued the payment
of distributions in the second quarter of 1995. Future distributions are
dependent upon among other things, an increase in the prices received for oil
and gas. The Company will continue to recover its reserves and reduce its
obligations in 1997. The general partner does not intend to accelerate the
repayment of the debt beyond the cash flow provided by operating activities.
Based upon current projected cash flows from its property, it does not appear
that the Company will have sufficient cash to pay its operating expenses, repay
its debt obligations and pay distributions in the near future.

FOR THE TWO YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996
1. PARTNERSHIP ORGANIZATION
Enex 88-89 Income and Retirement Fund - Series 1, L.P. (the "Company"),
a New Jersey limited partnership, commenced operations on June 10, 1988
for the purpose of acquiring non-operating interests in producing oil
and gas properties. Total limited partner contributions were
$1,802,733, of which $18,027 was contributed by Enex Resources
Corporation ("Enex"), the general partner.
In accordance with the partnership agreement, the Company paid
syndication fees and due diligence expenses of $185,676 for solicited
subscriptions to Enex Securities Corporation, a subsidiary of Enex, and
reimbursed Enex for organization expenses of approximately $54,000.
The Company owns only non-operating interests in producing oil and gas
properties. Such interests typically entitle the Company to receive its
pro rata share of net profits and royalties from the underlying
properties without obligating the Company to develop or operate the
properties or directly bear any share of development or operating
costs.
Information relating to the allocation of costs and revenues between
Enex, as general partner, and the limited partners is as follows:
Limited
Enex Partners
Commissions and selling expenses 100%
Company reimbursement of organization
expense 100%
Company property acquisition 100%
General and administrative costs 10% 90%
Revenues from temporary investment
of partnership capital 100%
Revenues from producing properties 10% 90%
At the point in time when the cash distributions to the limited
partners equal their subscriptions ("payout"), revenues from
producing properties and general and administrative costs will be
allocated 15% to the general partner and 85% to the limited
partners.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Oil and Gas Properties - The Company uses the successful efforts
method of accounting for its oil and gas operations. Capitalized
costs are amortized on the units-of-production method based
II-9
<PAGE>
on estimated total proved reserves. The acquisition costs of
proved oil and gas properties are capitalized and periodically
assessed for impairments.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be
Disposed Of," which requires certain assets to be reviewed for
impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying
amount may not be recoverable. Prior to this pronouncement, the
Company assessed properties on an aggregate basis. Upon adoption of
SFAS 121, the Company began assessing properties on an individual
basis, wherein total capitalized costs may not exceed the
property's fair market value. The fair market value of each
property was determined by H. J. Gruy and Associates Inc.,
("Gruy"). To determine the fair market value, Gruy estimated each
property's oil and gas reserves, applied certain assumptions
regarding price and cost escalations, applied a 10% discount factor
for time and certain discount factors for risk, location, type of
ownership interest, category of reserves, operational
characteristics, and other factors. In the first quarter of 1996,
the Company recognized a non-cash impairment provision of $333,294
for certain oil and gas properties due to market conditions and
reserve revisions on the Lake Decade acquisition, which indicated
that the carrying amounts were not fully recoverable.
Cash Flows - The Company has presented its cash flows using the
indirect method and considers all highly liquid investments with an
original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
General and Administrative Expenses - The Company reimburses the
General Partner for direct costs and administrative costs incurred
on its behalf. Administrative costs allocated to the Company are
computed on a cost basis in accordance with standard industry
practices by allocating the time spent by the General Partner's
personnel among all projects and by allocating rent and other
overhead on the basis of the relative direct time charges.
Use of Estimates - The preparation of the financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during
the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.
3. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
General - The Company is not a taxable entity for federal income
tax purposes. Such taxes are liabilities of the individual partners
and the amounts thereof will vary depending on the individual
situation of each partner. Accordingly, there is no provision for
income taxes in the accompanying financial statements.

On January 4, 1996, the SEC filed a complaint in the United States

Carl violated Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange
Act"), and Rule 16a-2 and 16a-3 (and former Rule 16a-1) thereunder, by failing
to timely file reports concerning thirty-eight securities transactions in his
mother's brokerage accounts involving shares of Health Images, Inc. stock. The
SEC took the position that because Mr. Carl (1) provided substantial financial
support to his mother, (2) commingled his mother's assets with his own, (3)
provided a substantial
III-2
<PAGE>
portion of the funds used to purchase the shares in question, and (4) received
from his mother a substantial portion of the sales proceeds, he, therefore, had
a pecuniary interest in, and was a beneficial owner of, the shares in question.
In response to the SEC's action, Mr. Carl disgorged to Health
Images, Inc. approximately $92,400 in short-swing profits from the trading in
his mother's account, plus interest thereon of approximately $52,600. The SEC
further requested the court to impose a $10,000 civil penalty against Mr. Carl
pursuant to Section 21(d)(3) of the Exchange Act. Without admitting or denying
the allegations in the complaint, Mr. Carl consented to the entry of a final
judgement imposing the $10,000 penalty. On January 12, 1996, a federal judge
entered the final judgement in this matter, and Mr. Carl has since filed amended
reports on Forms 4 and 5 reflecting these transactions in his mother's accounts.
In relation to the same matter, the SEC has issued an
administrative Order pursuant to Section 21C of the Exchange Act against Mr.
Carl, finding that he violated Section 16(a) and the rules thereunder and
requiring him to cease and desist from committing or causing any violation or
future violation of those provisions. Without admitting or denying allegations
in the SEC's Order, Mr. Carl consented to the entry of the Order.
