                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)


(1)  General Information -

                  The financial statements included herein have been prepared by
        the  Partnership  and are  unaudited  except  for the  balance  sheet at
        December  31,  1995  which has been  taken  from the  audited  financial
        statements at that date. The financial  statements reflect  adjustments,
        all of which were of a normal recurring nature, which are in the opinion
        of the  managing  general  partner  necessary  for a fair  presentation.
        Certain  information  and  footnote  disclosures  normally  included  in
        financial  statements  prepared in accordance  with  generally  accepted
        accounting  principles  have  been  omitted  pursuant  to the  rules and
        regulations  of the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  ("SEC").  The
        Partnership  believes adequate disclosure is provided by the information
        presented.  The financial  statements should be read in conjunction with
        the audited  financial  statements  and the notes included in the latest
        Form 10-K.

(2)  Organization and Terms of Partnership Agreement -

                  Swift Energy Managed Pension Assets Partnership 1991-A,  Ltd.,
        a Texas limited  partnership (the Partnership),  was formed on March 31,
        1991,  for the purpose of purchasing net profits  interests,  overriding
        royalty  interests and royalty  interests  (collectively,  "nonoperating
        interests") in producing oil and gas properties  within the  continental
        United States. Swift Energy Company ("Swift"), a Texas corporation,  and
        VJM Corporation  ("VJM"),  a California  corporation,  serve as Managing
        General  Partner  and  Special  General  Partner  of  the   Partnership,
        respectively.  The general  partners  are required to  contribute  up to
        1/99th of limited partner net  contributions.  The 173 limited  partners
        made total capital contributions of $1,448,986.

                  Nonoperating  interests  acquisition  costs and the management
        fee are borne 99 percent by the limited  partners and one percent by the
        general  partners.  Organization and syndication costs were borne solely
        by the limited partners.

                  Generally,  all continuing costs (including development costs,
        operating costs,  general and  administrative  reimbursements and direct
        expenses) and revenues are allocated 90 percent to the limited  partners
        and ten percent to the general partners. If prior to partnership payout,
        however,  the cash  distribution  rate for a  certain  period  equals or
        exceeds  17.5  percent,  then for the  following  calendar  year,  these
        continuing  costs and  revenues  will be  allocated  85  percent  to the
        limited  partners  and  15  percent  to  the  general  partners.   After
        partnership  payout,  continuing  costs and  revenues  will be shared 85
        percent by the limited partners, and 15 percent by the general partners,
        even if the cash distribution rate is less than 17.5 percent.

(3)  Significant Accounting Policies -

      Use of Estimates --

                  The  preparation  of 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  at the date of the  financial  statements  and the reported
        amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
        Actual results could differ from estimates.

     Nonoperating Interests in Oil and Gas Properties --

                  For financial  reporting purposes the Partnership  follows the
        "full-cost"  method of accounting for nonoperating  interests in oil and
        gas property costs. Under this method of accounting,  all costs incurred
        in the acquisition of  nonoperating  interests in oil and gas properties
        are capitalized.  The unamortized cost of nonoperating  interests in oil
        and gas  properties is limited to the "ceiling  limitation"  (calculated
        separately for the Partnership,  limited partners and general partners).
        The  "ceiling  limitation"  is  calculated  on  a  quarterly  basis  and
        represents the estimated future net revenues from nonoperating interests
        in proved  properties  using current  prices  discounted at ten percent.
        Proceeds from the sale or disposition of  nonoperating  interests in oil
        and  gas  properties  are  treated  as a  reduction  of the  cost of the
        nonoperating  interests  with no gains or  losses  recognized  except in
        significant transactions.

                          SWIFT ENERGY MANAGED PENSION
                         ASSETS PARTNERSHIP 1991-A, LTD.
                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                                   (UNAUDITED)


                  The Partnership computes the provision for amortization of oil
        and gas properties on the units-of-production method. Under this method,
        the provision is calculated by multiplying the total unamortized cost of
        oil and gas  properties  by an overall rate  determined  by dividing the
        physical  units of oil and gas  produced  during the period by the total
        estimated proved oil and gas reserves at the beginning of the period.

                  The calculation of the "ceiling  limitation" and the provision
        for  depreciation,  depletion and  amortization is based on estimates of
        proved reserves. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating
        quantities  of proved  reserves  and in  projecting  the future rates of
        production,  timing and plan of development. The accuracy of any reserve
        estimate  is a  function  of  the  quality  of  available  data  and  of
        engineering  and  geological  interpretation  and  judgment.  Results of
        drilling,  testing and production subsequent to the date of the estimate
        may justify revision of such estimate.  Accordingly,  reserve  estimates
        are  often  different  from  the  quantities  of oil  and gas  that  are
        ultimately recovered.

(4)  Related-Party Transactions -

                  An  affiliate  of  the  Special  General  Partner,  as  Dealer
        Manager,  received  $36,225 for managing and  overseeing the offering of
        the limited  partnership units. A one-time management fee of $36,225 was
        paid to Swift for services performed for the Partnership.

                  The  Partnership  entered  into a Net Profits  and  Overriding
        Royalty Interests Agreement ("NP/OR Agreement") with Swift Energy Income
        Partners 1991-A, Ltd. (Operating Partnership), managed by Swift, for the
        purpose of acquiring  nonoperating  interests  in producing  oil and gas
        properties.   Under  terms  of  the  NP/OR   Agreement,   the  Operating
        Partnership will convey to the Partnership nonoperating interests in the
        aggregate net profits (i.e., oil and gas sales net of related  operating
        costs) of the properties  acquired equal to its  proportionate  share of
        the property acquisition costs.

(5)  Vulnerability Due to Certain Concentrations -

                  The  Company's  revenues are  primarily the result of sales of
         its oil and natural gas  production.  Market  prices of oil and natural
         gas may fluctuate and adversely affect operating results.

                  The Partnership extends credit to various companies in the oil
         and gas industry which results in a concentration  of credit risk. This
         concentration  of credit risk may be affected by changes in economic or
         other conditions and may accordingly  impact the Partnership's  overall
         credit risk.  However,  the Managing  General Partner believes that the
         risk is mitigated by the size, reputation,  and nature of the companies
         to which the Partnership  extends credit. In addition,  the Partnership
         generally  does not  require  collateral  or other  security to support
         customer receivables.

(6)  Fair Value of Financial Instruments -

                  The Partnership's  financial  instruments  consist of cash and
         cash equivalents and short-term  receivables and payables. The carrying
         amounts  approximate  fair value due to the highly liquid nature of the
         short-term instruments.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


GENERAL

         The  Partnership is formed for the purpose of investing in nonoperating
interests in producing oil and gas  properties  located  within the  continental
United States.  In order to accomplish  this, the  Partnership  goes through two
distinct yet  overlapping  phases with respect to its  liquidity  and results of
operations.  When the  Partnership  is formed,  it commences  its  "acquisition"
phase,  with all funds placed in short-term  investments  until required for the
acquisition of nonoperating interests.  Therefore,  the interest earned on these
pre-acquisition  investments  becomes the  primary  cash flow source for initial
partner  distributions.  As the Partnership acquires  nonoperating  interests in
producing properties,  net cash from ownership of nonoperating interests becomes
available  for  distribution,  along  with  the  investment  income.  After  all
partnership funds have been expended on nonoperating  interests in producing oil
and gas properties,  the Partnership enters its "operations"  phase. During this
phase,  income  from  nonoperating  interests  in oil  and gas  sales  generates
substantially all revenues, and distributions to partners reflect those revenues
less all  associated  partnership  expenses.  The  Partnership  may also  derive
proceeds  from  the  sale of  nonoperating  interests  in  acquired  oil and gas
properties,  when the sale of such  interests  is  economically  appropriate  or
preferable to continued operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Partnership has completed acquisition of nonoperating  interests in
producing oil and gas  properties,  expending  all of the limited  partners' net
commitments available for property acquisitions.

         Under  the NP/OR  Agreement,  the  Managing  General  Partner  acquires
interests  in oil and gas  properties  from  outside  parties  and  sells  these
interests to an affiliated operating partnership,  who in turn creates and sells
to the Partnership  nonoperating interests in these same oil and gas properties.
The Managing General Partner expects funds available from net profits  interests
to be distributed to the partners.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      The  following  analysis  explains  changes  in the  revenue  and  expense
categories  for the quarter  ended  September  30, 1996  (current  quarter) when
compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1995  (corresponding  quarter),  and
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 (current period),  when compared to
the nine months ended September 30, 1995 (corresponding period).

Three Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995

      Income  from  nonoperating  interests  decreased  4 percent in the current
quarter of 1996 when compared to the third quarter in 1995. However, oil and gas
sales  increased  $7,082  or 55  percent  in the  current  quarter  of 1996 when
compared to the  corresponding  quarter in 1995,  primarily due to increased gas
and oil prices.  An increased in gas prices of 60 percent or $.84/MCF and in oil
prices of 36  percent  or  $5.36/BBL  had a  significant  impact on  partnership
performance.  Also,  current  quarter oil  production  increased 65 percent when
compared to third  quarter 1995  production  volumes,  further  contributing  to
increased revenues.

      Associated amortization expense increased 42 percent or $3,648.

     The  Partnership  recorded an additional  provision in  amortization in the
third  quarter of 1996 and 1995 for $5,787 and  $1,473,  respectively,  when the
present value,  discounted at ten percent, of estimated future net revenues from
oil and gas  properties,  using the  guidelines of the  Securities  and Exchange
Commission,  was below the fair  market  value  originally  paid for oil and gas
properties. The additional provision results from the Managing General Partner's
determination  that the fair  market  value paid for  properties  may or may not
coincide  with reserve  valuations  determined  according to  guidelines  of the
Securities  and Exchange  Commission.  Using  prices in effect at September  30,
1996, the Partnership  would have recorded an additional  provision at September
30, 1996 in the amount of $95,682.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)


Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995

      Income from  nonoperating  interests  decreased  11 percent in the current
period of 1996 when compared to the  corresponding  period in 1995.  Oil and gas
sales  declined  $3,597  or 5  percent  in the  first  nine  months of 1996 when
compared to the  corresponding  period in 1995,  primarily  due to decreased gas
production.  A decline of 55 percent in gas production had a significant  impact
on  partnership  performance.  Current  period gas and oil prices  increased  81
percent  or  $1.14/MCF  and 20  percent or  $3.16/BBL,  respectively,  partially
offsetting the revenue declines.

      Associated amortization expense decreased 16 percent or $8,094.

      The  Partnership  recorded an additional  provision in amortization in the
first nine months of 1996 and 1995 for $173,144 and $30,844, respectively,  when
the present value,  discounted at ten percent,  of estimated future net revenues
from oil and gas properties, using the guidelines of the Securities and Exchange
Commission,  was below the fair  market  value  originally  paid for oil and gas
properties. The additional provision results from the Managing General Partner's
determination  that the fair  market  value paid for  properties  may or may not
coincide  with reserve  valuations  determined  according to  guidelines  of the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

      During 1996,  partnership  revenues  and costs will be shared  between the
limited partners and general partners in a 90:10 ratio.
