                  REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To the Stockholder of
     Washington Energy Resources Company:


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of WASHINGTON
ENERGY RESOURCES COMPANY (a Washington corporation) and subsidiaries as of
September 30, 1993 and 1992, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, stockholder's equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended September 30, 1993. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Washington Energy Resources
Company and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1993 and 1992 and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended September 30, 1993 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

                      WASHINGTON ENERGY RESOURCES COMPANY
                      -----------------------------------

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                  ------------------------------------------
(Information pertaining to the six months ended March 31, 1993 and 1994 is
unaudited.)

(1)   THE COMPANY
      -----------

Washington Energy Resources Company (the "Company") was formed in 1991 as a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Washington Energy Company ("WECO" or the "Parent") in
connection with a corporate reorganization of several of the Company's wholly-
owned subsidiaries. The Company engages in the acquisition, exploration,
development, marketing and management of oil and gas assets in the United States
and Canada.

(2)   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
      ------------------------------------------

Principles of Consolidation
- - ---------------------------

The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of Washington Energy
Resources Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and its proportionately
consolidated 49.5% interest in a "Managed Partnership" (see Notes 6 and 9)
(collectively, the "Company"). All significant intercompany transactions have
been eliminated.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
- - -------------------------

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Inventory
- - ---------

Inventory consists of lease and well equipment and is stated at the lower of
cost or market based on a weighted average method.

Oil and Gas Properties
- - ----------------------

The Company follows the full-cost method of accounting for oil and gas
properties. Under this method, all costs associated with the acquisition,
exploration and development of oil and gas properties, including directly
related overhead costs, are capitalized into two cost centers (the United States
and Canada). Capitalized overhead costs for 1991, 1992 and 1993 were $0,
$979,405 and $2,016,929, respectively.

Oil and gas properties, as well as costs to develop proved reserves, are
depleted using the unit-of-production method based on estimates of total proved
reserves. Costs associated with site restoration, dismantlement, and abandonment
approximate salvage values and are thus not accrued or depleted. Investments in
unproved properties are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the
properties can be determined or until impairment occurs. If the results of an
assessment indicate that the properties are impaired, the amount of the
impairment is added to the capitalized costs to be amortized. As of September
30, 1991, 1992 and 1993, capitalized costs of properties not being amortized
totaled approximately $7,527,000, $7,789,000 and $6,464,000. The capitalized
costs of properties not being amortized at September 30, 1993, were incurred
primarily between 1991 and 1993.

                                      F-8
<PAGE>
 
In addition, capitalized costs cannot exceed the "estimated present value,"
discounted at a ten percent interest rate, of future net revenues from proved
reserves, based on current economic and operating conditions, plus the lower of
cost or fair market value of unproved properties, as determined on a quarterly
basis. Proceeds from sales of oil and gas properties are credited to the full-
cost pool with no gain or loss recognized unless such transactions would
significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved
reserves of oil and gas.

      Management Fees
      ---------------

The Company has entered into several arrangements to manage oil and gas leasing
and production activities (exclusive of any current drilling activities), firm
interstate transportation space, and municipal gas supplies. Under these
agreements, the Company either receives a fee based on production or a fixed
amount annually as reimbursement for the cost of providing these services.
Accordingly, these fees are offset against general and administrative expenses
and totaled $0, $160,417 and $623,820 in 1991, 1992 and 1993, respectively.
Incentive fees received under these agreements are included in brokered income
and other in the accompanying financial statements.

      Gas Brokering
      -------------

The Company's business activities include the buying and selling of natural gas.
The Company recognizes revenue and costs on these brokering transactions at the
time the gas is purchased or sold. The net income (loss) from this activity is
included in brokered income and other in the accompanying statements of
operations.

      Other Property, Plant and Equipment
      -----------------------------------

Capitalized costs of $1,432,787 and $3,339,696 associated with a gas processing
plant and pipeline assets, for 1992 and 1993 respectively, are included in oil
and gas properties and are being depreciated on a straight-line basis over their
estimated useful lives of 5 to 10 years.

Office furniture and fixtures are depreciated on a straight-line basis over
their related estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 10 years.

      Hedging
      -------

The Company regularly hedges, through oil and gas futures contracts and price
swaps, including basis differential swaps to the Rocky Mountains, a significant
portion of both its own production and production committed to the Company under
gas supply contracts. Gains and losses on hedging transactions are recognized in
the period in which the related production is sold. Hedging transactions
associated with the Company's own production are reported as adjustments to
production revenues. Hedges related to production purchased by the Company are
reported as brokering and other income. WECO has guaranteed the Company's
obligations under all of its hedging agreements.

The price impact for hedges open for committed third party production is
contractually passed through to the third party producer. The Company also has
hedge positions associated with its Managed Partnership of which the price
effect of some hedges are contractually assigned to its Managed Partnership. 

At March 31, 1994, the Company had a significant number of hedging contracts
outstanding which mature in fiscal 1994 through 1996. The Company has deferred
hedging losses totalling $619,957 as of March 31, 1994. In addition, the
Company had open loss positions of $3,294,174 at March 31, 1994 based on
futures prices as of that date. As discussed in note 9, substantially all
outstanding hedge agreements as of January 1, 1994 were assigned to WECO except
for those associated with the third party producer Managed Partnership. 

                                      F-9
<PAGE>
 
      Income Taxes
      ------------

The Company is included in the consolidated tax return of its parent. The
provision for income taxes is computed as if the Company were a stand-alone
entity using the consolidated tax rate. Under an informal tax sharing
arrangement between members of the consolidated group, the Company pays or is
paid for the tax liability or benefit that it generates on a separate company
basis.

The Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 96, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Deferred income taxes are
provided for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax
basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each
year-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates. Such differences
result primarily from recognizing drilling costs and depreciation, depletion and
amortization in different periods for financial reporting and tax purposes and
utilization of tax credits.

In February 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 ("SFAS 109"), "Accounting for Income
Taxes", which allows for the recognition of deferred tax assets in certain
circumstances. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce
deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company is
required to adopt SFAS 109 in fiscal 1994. Management of the Company does not
anticipate that adoption of this Statement will have a material impact on the
accompanying financial statements.

      Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions
      ---------------------------------------------

The Company translates balance sheet accounts of Canadian operations using the
year-end exchange rate, and income statement items at the average exchange rate
for the year. Any resulting translation adjustments are reflected as a separate
component of stockholder's equity. Foreign currency transaction adjustments are
recognized in the statement of operations in the period incurred.

      Gas Balancing
      -------------

The Company uses the sales method of accounting for natural gas revenues whereby
revenues are recognized based on the amount of gas sold to purchasers. The
amount of gas sold may differ from the amounts to which the Company is entitled
based on its working interest in the properties. Properties which has
insufficient reserves to cover the imbalance will be recorded as a liability.

(3)   LONG-TERM DEBT
      --------------

</TABLE> 

  (a)   The Company's Managed Partnership (see Note 6) has an amended limited
        recourse note payable to a bank with an unpaid principal balance of
        $8,526,738 at September 30, 1993. The note bears interest at a floating
        rate, elected periodically, based upon either the LIBOR rate plus 3% or
        the bank's base rate plus 1.5%. Principal and interest are generally
        payable monthly out of substantially all of the unconsolidated
        subsidiary's net revenues from its oil and gas properties, as defined in
        the agreement, with any outstanding principal and interest due in full
        on October 23, 1996. The Company's liability on the note is limited to
        its 49.5% interest in the Managed Partnership. The note is secured by
        substantially all of the Managed Partnership's assets. The current
        portion of long-term debt includes estimated repayments of net revenues
        to be recognized in fiscal 1994 (see Note 9).

  (b)   In connection with an acquisition of certain oil and gas properties in
        fiscal 1988, the Company executed an unsecured, non-interest bearing
        note payable with an original principal balance of approximately
        $850,000 due in monthly installments of $63,055 through 2002. The
        Company has discounted the note based on an imputed interest rate of
        10%. The total unamortized discount outstanding at September 30, 1992
        and 1993 was $284,057 and $243,103, respectively.


(4)   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
      --------------------------

The Company participates in a consolidated banking arrangement with WECO and
other members of the affiliated group. Under the terms of the arrangement, WECO
borrows or lends money from or to each of its subsidiaries at current market
interest rates. The weighted average interest rate on short-term notes
outstanding at September 30, 1992 and 1993, payable to WECO was 6.6% and 5.9%,
respectively.

WECO has provided a portion of the Company's general and administrative services
and has charged the Company for such services at rates which, in management's
opinion, approximate what the company would have incurred on a separate company
basis. General and administrative expenses charged by WECO to the Company in
1991, 1992 and 1993 were $170,846, $125,249 and $108,574, respectively.

                                      F-11
<PAGE>
 
Prior to 1993, the Company sold substantially all of its gas production to an
affiliate under a gas supply contract. Effective October 8, 1992, the gas supply
contract was terminated and the Company began negotiating new contracts with
third parties (see Note 7) and sells the remainder of its gas in the spot
market. Sales to this affiliate for the years ended September 30, 1991, 1992 and
1993 were $7,265,874, $7,517,294 and $264,237, representing approximately 28%,
30%, and .8% of total sales, respectively.

For fiscal years ending September 30, 1991, 1992 and 1993, the Company
recognized interest income of $0, $1,171,120 and $511,748, respectively, related
primarily to tax refunds associated with abandoned lease deductions.


(6)   INVESTMENT IN OIL AND GAS PARTNERSHIP
      -------------------------------------

The Company is the managing general partner in a partnership (the "Managed
Partnership") formed with two other partners to acquire leasehold interests in
certain oil and gas properties for $13.4 million. Approximately 70% of the
purchase price was funded through limited recourse bank debt. The loan is
recourse to the Company only to the extent of its interest in the Managed
Partnership. The Company proportionately consolidates its 49.5% interest in the
partnership (see Note 9).

(7)   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
      -----------------------------

The Company has entered into various noncancelable operating lease agreements,
primarily for office space, furniture, fixtures and equipment and vehicles.
Future minimum lease payments due under these agreements are as follows:

</TABLE> 

Total rent expense under operating leases for the years ended September 30,
1991, 1992 and 1993, was $285,512, $479,945 and $571,851, respectively.

In addition, the Company has entered into a gas supply contract, guaranteed by
WECO, to provide 21,800 MMbtu per day to a co-generation facility in Bellingham,
Washington for a 15-year period beginning July 1, 1993. The price received under
the contract is initially fixed with an annual escalator. Gas supplied under the
contract is provided through the Company's own production and through committed
third party gas production.

The Company has entered into agreements with three natural gas pipeline
companies reserving capacity to transport gas on a pipeline expansion placed in
service on November 1, 1993. In addition, the Company has an agreement for gas
storage capacity effective July 1, 1993, in a storage field for purposes of
balancing gas volumes transported on the pipeline expansion. These contracts,
which vary in term from 10 to 30 years, call for fixed monthly demand charges
regardless of the volumes transported or stored. The fixed portion of these
commitments is as follows:

The Company has incurred losses of $2.9 million for the six months ended March
31, 1994 related to these pipeline transportation and storage contracts. The
Company anticipates additional losses for the foreseeable future and its ability
to mitigate those losses over time is uncertain. As of March 31, 1994, the
Pipeline Transportation Agreements were supported by letters of credit totaling
$6,000,000 U.S. and $816,528 CDN, and guarantees by WECO. In connection with the
merger discussed in Note 9, these transportation agreements were transferred to
WECO effective January 1, 1994.

The Company is involved in various litigation matters in the normal course of
business both as plaintiff and as defendant. In management's opinion, the
ultimate outcome of these matters will not have a material impact on the
accompanying financial statements.

(8)   PENSION AND RETIREMENT BENEFITS
      -------------------------------

The Company participates in a defined benefit pension plan ("the Plan")
sponsored by WECO which benefits all employees who have attained 21 years of age
and have completed one year of service. Benefits are based on compensation and
length of service. WECO's policy is to fund the Plan annually at the level
necessary to provide benefits attributable to service to date and those expected
to be earned in the future. The Company's cost of participation was
approximately $47,900, $12,500, and $27,000, respectively, for the years ended
1991, 1992 and 1993. The estimated share of vested benefits attributed to the
Company's participation in the WECO plan is not readily determinable.

As a result of the Merger discussed in Note 9, the Company will no longer
participate in the WECO pension plan after the closing date. All employees who
are vested (five years of employment), will be eligible for a deferred vested
benefit from the plan at a later date or a lump sum benefit if the actuarially
determined benefit at time of termination is $3,500 or less.

(9)   SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
      -----------------

Effective October 1, 1993, the Company purchased an additional 12.625% interest
in the Managed Partnership for an adjusted purchase price of $2.6 million. This
purchase results in the Company having a majority interest and voting control
over substantially all of the Managed Partnership's activities. In March 1994,
the Company reached an agreement with the remaining general partner to dissolve
the partnership, pay off the remaining partnership bank debt and convert
ownership in the Managed Partnership's properties to direct working interests of
the partners.

On February 25, 1994, the Company and WECO entered into an Agreement of Merger
which was finalized on May 2, 1994. The merger essentially provided for the sale
of all of the stock of the Company to a third party in exchange of cash and
common and convertible preferred stock of the third party. In conjunction with
the merger, WECO retained certain of the Company's marketing, pipeline and gas
storage contractual arrangements with several natural gas pipeline companies as
further discussed in Note 7. Accordingly, the Company will no longer be required
to make the demand charge payments discussed in Note 7. The merger agreement
also provides that both the Company and WECO make certain representations,
warranties and indemnifications for the benefit of the third party for potential
liabilities, if any related to periods prior to the effective date of the sale.

Further, the Company has entered into an agreement with a third party to sell a
portion of its pipeline and storage contracts, at full-term and full-tariff
rates. Effective November 1, 1995, 51% of the largest pipeline capacity contract
will be acquired by the third party. On April 1, 1994, 43% of the Company's
storage capacity in Alberta, Canada will be acquired. 

                                      F-14
<PAGE>
 
Further, to facilitate the sale, substantially all outstanding hedge agreements
discussed in Note 2, and those entered into subsequent to the Company's fiscal
year-end were assigned to WECO effective January 1, 1994.


(10)  SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL DATA - OIL AND GAS ACTIVITIES
      ----------------------------------------------------

      Major Purchasers
      ----------------

In addition to the sales to an affiliate discussed in Note 4, sales to two
purchasers were approximately $3,200,000 and $2,800,000 or approximately 13% and
11%, respectively for the year ended September 30, 1992. Sales to two other
purchasers were approximately $5,600,000 and $5,700,000 or approximately 11% and
11%, respectively for the year ended 1993. There were no other major purchasers
in 1991.

      Estimated Proved Oil and Gas Reserves (Unaudited)
      ------------------------------------------------     

The following estimates of proved reserve quantities represent reserves of crude
oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids that geological and engineering data
demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from
known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Proved
developed reserves are those expected to be recovered through existing wells,
equipment, and operating methods. All reserve information is based on estimates
prepared by Ryder Scott Company Petroleum Engineers. Due to inherent
uncertainties and the limited nature of reservoir data, estimates of underground
reserves are subject to change over time as additional information becomes
available.

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows (Unaudited)
- - --------------------------------------------------------------------

The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows is computed by
applying year-end prices, adjusted for existing contractual arrangements and
hedging agreements, to year-end quantities of proved reserves. Estimated future
development and production costs are based on year-end costs, assuming
continuation of existing economic conditions. Future income tax expenses are
based on year-end statutory tax rates and laws currently in effect. The
estimated future net cash flows are then discounted at 10 percent a year to
reflect the estimated timing of the future cash flows. Probable future changes
in demand for and prices of oil and gas, inflation and other factors make such
estimates inherently imprecise and subject to substantial revision.

SEC Requirements

      The Pro Forma Combined Financial Statements have been prepared in
accordance with the requirements of Item 11 of Regulation S-X promulgated by
the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC). These required statements are
presented for informational purposes only and are not indicative of the
results of future operations or financial position, nor the results of
historical operations and financial position had the merger occurred as of the
assumed dates.

Explanatory Notes
      
      The following Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are
presented to show the pro forma effect of a merger between a Company
subsidiary and Washington Energy Resources Company ("WERCO"). The transaction
will be reported using the purchase method of accounting.

      The Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet has been prepared
assuming that the WERCO merger had occurred at March 31, 1994. The Pro Forma
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income have been prepared assuming that
the WERCO merger had occurred at the beginning of the periods presented.
Pursuant to the SEC's regulations, permitted pro forma adjustments include
only the effects of events directly attributable to a transaction that are
factually supportable and, for income accounts, are expected to have a
continuing impact.

      The Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read
in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements included
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
1993 and WERCO's historical consolidated financial statements included

        NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


      The accompanying pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements
of the Company for the year ended December 31, 1993 and the three months ended
March 31, 1994 have been prepared to reflect certain adjustments to the
historical consolidated financial statements of the Company, described as
follows:

      (a)   The merger of a Company subsidiary with Washington Energy
            Resources Company ("WERCO") has been accounted for in the Pro
            Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statement using the
            purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company's purchase
            cost has been allocated to the assets and liabilities of the
            merged company based upon the estimated fair market value.

      (b)   Reflects the elimination of losses attributable to certain
            transportation and storage contracts and gas price swap agreements
            that were assumed by Washington Energy Company, the parent company
            of WERCO.

      (c)   Reflects the reclassification of purchased gas costs (netted in
            brokerage revenue in WERCO's historical presentation) to "Cost of
            Natural Gas".

      (d)   Adjusted to reflect the Company's estimated incremental operating
            and administrative costs necessary to operate and manage the
            business.

      (e)   Reflects an adjustment to conform the reporting presentation to be
            consistent with the full cost method of accounting used by the
            Company.

      (f)   Reflects additional levels of depreciation, depletion, and
            amortization primarily attributable to the purchase price in
            excess of the historical net book value.

      (g)   Records the income tax provision of the pro forma adjustments.

      (h)   Reflects the dividend obligation associated with the additional
            preferred stock issued in connection with the merger.

      (i)   Reflects additional interest expense associated with the increased
            long-term debt attributable to the merger.
