Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
General
Southwest Royalties Institutional Income Fund X-A, L.P. was organized as a
Delaware limited partnership on January 29, 1990. The offering of such
limited partnership interests began May 11, 1990 as part of a shelf
offering registered under the name Southwest Royalties Institutional 1990-
91 Income Program. Minimum capital requirements for the Partnership were
met on July 30, 1990, with the offering of limited partnership interests
concluding on November 30, 1990, with total limited partner contributions
of $5,658,000.
The Partnership was formed to acquire royalty and net profits interests in
producing oil and gas properties, to produce and market crude oil and
natural gas produced from such properties, and to distribute the net
proceeds from operations to the limited and general partners. Net revenues
from producing oil and gas properties will not be reinvested in other
revenue producing assets except to the extent that production facilities
and wells are improved or reworked or where methods are employed to improve
or enable more efficient recovery of oil and gas reserves.
Increases or decreases in Partnership revenues and, therefore,
distributions to partners will depend primarily on changes in the prices
received for production, changes in volumes of production sold, lease
operating expenses, enhanced recovery projects, offset drilling activities
pursuant to farmout arrangements, sales of properties, and the depletion of
wells. Since wells deplete over time, production can generally be expected
to decline from year to year.
Well operating costs and general and administrative costs usually decrease
with production declines; however, these costs may not decrease
proportionately. Net income available for distribution to the partners is
therefore expected to fluctuate in later years based on these factors.
Based on current conditions, management does not anticipate performing
workovers during the next year. The Partnership could possibly experience
a normal decline of 8% to 10% per year.
Oil and Gas Properties
Oil and gas properties are accounted for at cost under the full-cost
method. Under this method, all productive and nonproductive costs incurred
in connection with the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and
gas reserves are capitalized. Gain or loss on the sale of oil and gas
properties is not recognized unless significant oil and gas reserves are
involved.
The Partnership's policy for depreciation, depletion and amortization of
oil and gas properties is computed under the units of revenue method.
Under the units of revenue method, depreciation, depletion and amortization
is computed on the basis of current gross revenues from production in
relation to future gross revenues, based on current prices, from estimated
production of proved oil and gas reserves.
Should the net capitalized costs exceed the estimated present value of oil
and gas reserves, discounted at 10%, such excess costs would be charged to
current expense. As of quarter ended September 30, 1998, the net
capitalized costs did not exceed the estimated present value of oil and gas
reserves. A continuation of the oil price environment experienced during
the first three quarters of 1998 will have an adverse affect on the
Company's revenues and operating cash flow. Also, further declines in oil
prices could result in additional decreases in the carrying value of the
Company's oil and gas properties.

Results of Operations
A. General Comparison of the Quarters Ended September 30, 1998 and 1997
The following table provides certain information regarding performance
factors for the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and 1997:
Three Months
Ended Percentage
September 30, Increase
1998 1997 (Decrease)
---- ---- ---------
Average price per barrel of oil $ 10.63 17.42 (39%)
Average price per mcf of gas $ 1.60 2.36 (32%)
Oil production in barrels 4,900 6,800 (28%)
Gas production in mcf 8,800 11,900 (26%)
Income from net profits interests $(22,604) 55,603 (141%)
Partnership distributions $ 20,000 49,000 (59%)
Limited partner distributions $ 18,000 44,100 (59%)
Per unit distribution to limited partners $ 1.59 3.90 (59%)
Number of limited partner units 11,316 11,316
Revenues
The Partnership's income from net profits interests decreased to $(22,604)
from $55,603 for the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively, a decrease of 141%. The principal factors affecting the
comparison of the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 are as
follows:
1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
decreased during the quarter ended September 30, 1998 as compared to
the quarter ended September 30, 1997 by 39%, or $6.79 per barrel,
resulting in a decrease of approximately $46,200 in income from net
profits interests. Oil sales represented 79% of total oil and gas
sales during the quarter ended September 30, 1998 as compared to 81%
during the quarter ended September 30, 1997.
The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership
decreased during the same period by 32%, or $.76 per mcf, resulting in
an decrease of approximately $9,000 in income from net profits
interests.
The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the
change in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately
$55,200. The market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile
over the past decade, and management expects a certain amount of
volatility to continue in the foreseeable future.
<PAGE>
2. Oil production decreased approximately 1,900 barrels or 28% during the
quarter ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the quarter ended
September 30, 1997, resulting in a decrease of approximately $20,200 in
income from net profits interests.
Gas production decreased approximately 3,100 mcf or 26% during the same
period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $5,000 in income from
net profits interests.
The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the
change in production is approximately $25,200. The decrease in
production is primarily due to property sales and natural decline.
3. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 6% lower, or
approximately $5,500 less during the quarter ended September 30, 1998
as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1997.
Costs and Expenses
Total costs and expenses decreased to $31,759 from $34,622 for the quarters
ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, a decrease of 8%. The
decrease is the result of lower depletion expense partially offset by an
increase in general and administrative expense.
1. General and administrative costs consists of independent accounting and
engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General
Partner personnel costs. General and administrative costs increased
16% or approximately $3,600 during the quarter ended September 30, 1998
as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1997.
2. Depletion expense decreased to $5,500 for the quarter ended September
30, 1998 from $12,000 for the same period in 1997. This represents a
decrease of 54%. Depletion is calculated using the units of revenue
method of amortization based on a percentage of current period gross
revenues to total future gross oil and gas revenues, as estimated by
the Partnership's independent petroleum consultants. Two contributing
factors to the decline in depletion expense between the comparative
periods were the decrease in the price of oil and the decline in gross
oil and gas revenues.

B. General Comparison of the Nine Month Periods Ended September 30, 1998
and 1997
The following table provides certain information regarding performance
factors for the nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997:
Nine Months
Ended Percentage
September 30, Increase
1998 1997 (Decrease)
---- ---- ---------
Average price per barrel of oil $ 12.14 18.24 (33%)
Average price per mcf of gas $ 2.05 2.54 (19%)
Oil production in barrels 18,100 21,500 (16%)
Gas production in mcf 29,500 36,900 (20%)
Income from net profits interests $ (5,282) 190,940 (103%)
Partnership distributions $ 50,000 186,000 (73%)
Limited partner distributions $ 45,000 167,400 (73%)
Per unit distribution to limited partners $ 3.98 14.79 (73%)
Number of limited partner units 11,316 11,316
Revenues
The Partnership's income from net profits interests decreased to $(5,282)
from $190,940 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively, a decrease of 103%. The principal factors affecting the
comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 are as
follows:
1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
decreased during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared
to the nine months ended September 30, 1997 by 33%, or $6.10 per
barrel, resulting in a decrease of approximately $131,100 in income
from net profits interests. Oil sales represented 78% of total oil and
gas sales during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared
to 81% during the nine months ended September 30, 1997.
The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership
decreased during the same period by 19%, or $.49 per mcf, resulting in
an decrease of approximately $18,100 in income from net profits
interests.
The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the
change in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately
$149,200. The market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile
over the past decade, and management expects a certain amount of
volatility to continue in the foreseeable future.
<PAGE>
2. Oil production decreased approximately 3,400 barrels or 16% during the
nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 1997, resulting in a decrease of approximately
$41,300 in income from net profits interests.
Gas production decreased approximately 7,400 mcf or 20% during the same
period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $15,200 in income from
net profits interests.
The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the
change in production is approximately $56,500. The decrease is
primarily attributable to property sales and natural decline.
3. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 3% lower, or
approximately $9,500 less during the nine months ended September 30,
1998 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1997.
Costs and Expenses
Total costs and expenses increased to $126,114 from $113,601 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, an increase of 11%.
The increase is the result of higher general and administrative expense
partially offset by a decrease in depletion expense.
1. General and administrative costs consists of independent accounting and
engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General
Partner personnel costs. General and administrative costs increased
11% or approximately $8,000 during the nine months ended September 30,
1998 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1997.
2. Depletion expense increased to $42,500 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 from $38,000 for the same period in 1997. This
represents an increase of 12%. Depletion is calculated using the units
of revenue method of amortization based on a percentage of current
period gross revenues to total future gross oil and gas revenues, as
estimated by the Partnership's independent petroleum consultants.
<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The primary source of cash is from operations, the receipt of income from
interests in oil and gas properties. The Partnership knows of no material
change, nor does it anticipate any such change.
Cash flows (used in) provided by operating activities were approximately
$(32,300) in the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to
approximately $186,400 in the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The
primary use of the 1998 cash flow from operating activities was oil and gas
operations.
Cash flows provided by investing activities were approximately $93,600 in
the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to approximately
$2,500 in the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The principle source
of the 1998 cash flow from investing activities was the change in oil and
gas properties.
Cash flows used in financing activities were approximately $50,000 in the
nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to approximately $185,900
in the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The only use in financing
activities was the distributions to partners.
Total distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 were
$50,000 of which $45,000 was distributed to the limited partners and $5,000
to the general partners. The per unit distribution to limited partners
during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was $3.98. Total
distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 were $186,000
of which $167,400 was distributed to the limited partners and $18,600 to
the general partners. The per unit distribution to limited partners during
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 was $14.79.
The sources for the 1998 distributions of $50,000 were oil and gas
operations of approximately $(32,300), and the change in oil and gas
properties of approximately $93,600, resulting in excess cash for
contingencies or subsequent distributions. The sources for the 1997
distributions of $186,000 were oil and gas operations of approximately
$186,400 and the change in oil and gas properties of approximately $2,500,
resulting in excess cash for contingencies or subsequent distributions.
Since inception of the Partnership, cumulative monthly cash distributions
of $3,033,122 have been made to the partners. As of September 30, 1998,
$2,778,161 or $245.51 per limited partner unit has been distributed to the
limited partners, representing a 49% return of the capital contributed.
As of September 30, 1998, the Partnership had approximately $18,700 in
working capital. The Managing General Partner knows of no unusual
contractual commitments and believes the revenues generated from operations
are adequate to meet the needs of the Partnership.
<PAGE>
Information Systems for the Year 2000
The Partnership relies on the Managing General Partner for their data
processing requirements. This includes use of a program designed and
implemented by Midland Southwest Software, the Managing General Partner's
software subsidiary. Midland Southwest Software currently has a year 2000
plan in effect. They have surveyed existing programs and hardware and
estimate a compliance date of early 1999. Determination of the total cost
in connection with the year 2000 compliance issue is difficult to determine
due to the fact that they are in the process of developing their new 1998
version of marketed oil and gas software, which has, from inception,
included year 2000 compliance. Third party software programs utilized by
the Managing General Partner are either in compliance or are not affected
by the year 2000, with the exception of the payroll service, which is
currently modifying its system to accurately handle the Year 2000 issue.
The Managing General Partner has not completed its evaluation of its
vendors or suppliers systems to determine the effect, if any, the non-
compliance of such systems would have on the operations of the Managing
General Partner. Plans are under way to perform an audit in late 1998 or
early 1999 to determine the effect of non-compliance of its vendors and
suppliers on the Managing General Partner and thus formulate a contingency
plan.
A potential source of risk includes, but is not limited to, the inability
of principal purchasers and suppliers to be year 2000 compliant, which
could have a material effect on the Managing General Partner's production,
cash flow and overall financial condition, notwithstanding the Managing
General Partner's actions to prepare its own information systems. The
Managing General Partner currently does not have a contingency plan in
place to cover any unforeseen problems encountered that relate to the year
2000, but intends to produce one before the end of the fiscal year.
