Parker &  Parsley  89-A,  L.P.  (the  "Partnership")  is a  limited  partnership
organized in 1989 under the laws of the State of Delaware.

The Partnership  engages  primarily in oil and gas development and production in
Texas and is not involved in any industry segment other than oil and gas.

Note 2.     Basis of presentation

In  the  opinion  of  management,  the  unaudited  financial  statements  of the
Partnership  as of June 30, 1998 and for the three and six months ended June 30,
1998 and 1997 include all  adjustments  and accruals  consisting  only of normal
recurring accrual adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the
results for the  interim  period.  These  interim  results  are not  necessarily
indicative of results for a full year.

Certain  information  and  footnote  disclosure  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.  The financial statements
should  be read in  conjunction  with the  financial  statements  and the  notes
thereto  contained in the  Partnership's  Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1997, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission,  a copy

Item 2.     Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
              and Results of Operations (1)

Results of Operations

Six months ended June 30, 1998 compared with six months ended
  June 30, 1997

Revenues:

The Partnership's  oil and gas revenues  decreased 28% to $321,759 from $447,264
for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,  respectively.  The decrease in
revenues  resulted from lower average prices received,  offset by an increase in
production. For the six months ended June 30, 1998, 14,852 barrels of oil, 6,001
barrels of natural  gas  liquids  ("NGLs")  and 35,642 mcf of gas were sold,  or

                                        7

26,793  barrel of oil  equivalents  ("BOEs").  For the six months ended June 30,
1997, 15,500 barrels of oil and 53,459 mcf of gas were sold, or 24,410 BOEs.

As of September 30, 1997, the Partnership began accounting for processed natural
gas   production  as  processed   natural  gas  liquids  and  dry  residue  gas.
Consequently,  separate  product volumes will not be comparable to periods prior
to September 30, 1997.  Also,  prices for gas products will not be comparable as
the price per mcf for  natural  gas for the three and six months  ended June 30,
1998 is the price received for dry residue gas and the price per mcf for natural
gas for the  three and six  months  ended  June 30,  1997 is a price for wet gas
(i.e., natural gas liquids combined with dry residue gas).

The average  price  received per barrel of oil  decreased  $6.11,  or 30%,  from
$20.37 for the six months  ended June 30,  1997 to $14.26 for the same period in
1998.  The average price received per barrel of NGLs during the six months ended
June 30, 1998 was $7.96. The average price received per mcf of gas decreased 29%
from  $2.46  during the six months  ended  June 30,  1997 to $1.74 in 1998.  The
market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile in the past decade, and
management expects a certain amount of volatility to continue in the foreseeable
future.  The Partnership may therefore sell its future oil and gas production at
average  prices lower or higher than that  received  during the six months ended
June 30, 1998.

During  most of 1997,  the  Partnership  benefitted  from  higher  oil prices as
compared to previous  years.  However,  during the fourth  quarter of 1997,  oil
prices began a downward  trend that has  continued  into 1998. On July 29, 1998,
the market  price for West Texas  intermediate  crude was $11.58 per  barrel.  A
continuation of the oil price environment  experienced  during the first half of
1998 will have an adverse  effect on the  Partnership's  revenues and  operating
cash flow and could result in additional  decreases in the carrying value of the
Partnership's oil and gas properties.

A gain on disposition of assets of $1,926,  received during the six months ended
June  30,  1998,  was due to the  sale of  equipment  on one  well  plugged  and
abandoned in a prior year.

Costs and Expenses:

Total costs and expenses decreased to $279,078 for the six months ended June 30,
1998 as  compared  to  $308,537  for the same  period  in 1997,  resulting  in a
decrease of $29,459,  or 10%.  This  decrease was due to declines in  production
costs, general and administrative expenses ("G&A") and depletion.

Production  costs  were  $180,873  for the six months  ended  June 30,  1998 and
$206,534 for the same period in 1997  resulting in a $25,661  decrease,  or 12%.
The decrease was primarily  attributable to a decline in well maintenance costs,
production taxes and workover expenses.

G&A's  components are independent  accounting and engineering  fees and managing
general  partner  personnel  and  operating  costs.   During  this  period,  G&A
decreased, in aggregate, 23% from $14,125 for the six months ended June 30, 1997
to $10,825 for the same period in 1998.

Depletion was $87,380 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $87,878
for the same period in 1997.  This  represented a decrease in depletion of $498.
This decrease was primarily attributable  to a  reduction  in the  Partnership's
net  depletable  basis  from  charges  taken in  accordance  with  Statement  of
Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 121,  "Accounting  for the  Impairment  of
Long-Lived  Assets and for  Long-Lived  Assets to be Disposed  Of" ("SFAS  121")
during  the fourth  quarter of 1997 and a  reduction  in oil  production  of 648
barrels for the period ended June 30, 1998  compared to the same period in 1997,
offset by a decrease in oil  reserves  during the six months ended June 30, 1998
as a result of lower commodity prices.

Three months ended June 30, 1998 compared with three months ended
  June 30, 1997

Revenues:

The Partnership's  oil and gas revenues  decreased 25% to $156,809 from $209,234
for the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The decrease in
revenues  resulted from lower average prices received,  offset by an increase in
production.  For the three  months ended June 30,  1998,  7,262  barrels of oil,
3,445 barrels of NGLs and 15,503 mcf of gas were sold,  or 13,291 BOEs.  For the
three  months ended June 30,  1997,  7,675  barrels of oil and 29,833 mcf of gas
were sold, or 12,647 BOEs.

The average  price  received per barrel of oil  decreased  $5.12,  or 27%,  from
$18.71 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 to $13.59 for the same period in
1998.  The average  price  received  per barrel of NGLs during the three  months
ended  June 30,  1998 was  $8.67.  The  average  price  received  per mcf of gas
decreased 17% from $2.20 during the three months ended June 30, 1997 to $1.82 in
1998.

Costs and Expenses:

Total costs and  expenses  decreased to $134,750 for the three months ended June
30,  1998 as compared  to  $146,535  for the same period in 1997,  a decrease of
$11,785,  or 8%. This decrease was due to declines in production  costs, G&A and
depletion.

Production  costs were  $84,248  for the three  months  ended June 30,  1998 and
$94,805 for the same period in 1997  resulting  in a $10,557  decrease,  or 11%.
This  decrease  was due to declines  in well  maintenance  costs and  production
taxes, offset by an increase in ad valorem taxes.

G&A's  components are independent  accounting and engineering  fees and managing
general  partner  personnel  and  operating  costs.   During  this  period,  G&A
decreased,  in  aggregate,  16% from $6,175 for the three  months ended June 30,
1997 to $5,191 for the same period in 1998.

Depletion  was $45,311  for the three  months  ended June 30,  1998  compared to
$45,555 for the same period in 1997. This represented a decrease in depletion of
$244.   This  decrease  was  primarily   attributable  to  a  reduction  in  the

                                        9

<PAGE>



Partnership's  net depletable  basis from charges taken in accordance  with SFAS
121 during the fourth  quarter of 1997 and a reduction in oil  production of 413
barrels for the three months ended June 30, 1998  compared to the same period in
1997,  offset by a decrease in oil  reserves  during the three months ended June
30, 1998 as a result of lower commodity prices.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash  provided by operating  activities  decreased  $134,747  during the six
months  ended  June 30,  1998 from the same  period  ended June 30,  1997.  This
decrease was due to a decline in oil and gas sales receipts, offset by a decline
in production costs and G&A expenses paid.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

The Partnership's investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 1998
and 1997  included  equipment  replacement  expenditures  on several oil and gas
properties.

During the six months ended June 30, 1998,  proceeds of $1,926 were derived from
salvage income on one well plugged and abandoned in a prior year.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

Cash  was   sufficient  for  the  six  months  ended  June  30,  1998  to  cover
distributions to the partners of $172,718 of which $1,727 was distributed to the
managing  general  partner and  $170,991 to the limited  partners.  For the same
period  ended  June 30,  1997,  cash was  sufficient  for  distributions  to the
partners of 278,909 of which  $2,788 was  distributed  to the  managing  general
partner and $276,121 to the limited partners.

It is expected  that future net cash  provided by operating  activities  will be
sufficient for any capital expenditures and any distributions. As the production
from the properties declines, distributions are also expected to decrease.

Information systems for the year 2000

The managing general partner will be required to modify its information  systems
in order to  accurately  process  Partnership  data  referencing  the year 2000.
Because of the importance of occurrence  dates in the oil and gas industry,  the
consequences of not pursuing these  modifications  could be very  significant to
the Partnership's ability to manage and report operating activities.  Currently,
the managing general partner plans to contract with third parties to perform the
software  programming  changes  necessary to correct any existing  deficiencies.
Such  programming  changes are  anticipated  to be completed  and tested by June

                                       10

<PAGE>



1999. The managing  general  partner will allocate a portion of the costs of the
year 2000 programming  charges to the Partnership when they are incurred,  along
with recurring general and administrative  expenses.  Although the costs are not
estimable at this time, they should not be significant to the Partnership.
