recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to
fairly present the financial position, result of operations and cash flows of
the Company. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been omitted or condensed. The Company believes that the
disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading; however, these financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the audited financial statements and related notes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1996.
The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of trends or of
results to be expected for the full year.
Note 2 - Summarized financial information of equity investees
Summarized income statement information for the three months ended March 31,
1997 and 1996 for The Home-Stake Oil & Gas Company ("HSOG") and Alden Pipeline
Company is presented below:
1997 1996
---- ----
Income statement data:
Revenues...................... $ 2,425,317 $ 1,739,069
Income before income taxes.... 963,054 397,414
Net income (1)................ 656,334 309,802
(1)Includes $119,123 and $70,507 in 1997 and 1996, respectively,
attributable to the equity earnings of the Company recorded by HSOG.
During the first quarter of 1997, the Company sold its interest in the N.E.
Alden Field, including Alden Pipeline Company. This sale was effective January
1, 1997. Accordingly, 1997 information presented above does not include amounts
attributable to the operations of Alden Pipeline Company; amounts included for
1996 operations are not material to the totals shown.
Note 3 - Notes payable
Notes payable at March 31, 1997, represents the amounts due under the Company's
financing agreement which is due May 1, 1998 and provides for monthly maturities
of $80,355, plus interest at bank prime. In addition, the Company has a line of
credit in the amount of $700,000 available until May 1, 1997 which provides for
monthly payments of interest on the outstanding borrowings at bank prime.
The notes payable and the line of credit described above are collateralized by
certain of the Company's producing properties.
Note 4 - Contingencies
The Company is involved in various legal actions arising in the normal course of
business. In the opinion of management, the Company's liabilities, if any, in
these matters will not have a material effect on the Company's financial
position or the results of operations.

Item 2. Management's discussion and Analysis.
Results of Operations - First quarter 1997 compared with first quarter 1996
Net income for the first quarter increased $452,339 from $315,130 in 1996 to
$767,469 in 1997. The principal reasons for this increase are as follows:
Oil sales increased $256,045 (24%) due to an increase in the average oil price
from $17.64 per barrel to $21.45 per barrel, coupled with a small increase in
production from 59,321 barrels to 60,729 barrels.
Gas sales increased 64% ($364,129) due to an increase in the average gas price
from $1.88 in 1996 to $3.12 in 1997, partially offset by a small decrease in gas
production from 303,759 Mcf to 299,888 Mcf.
Gain on sales of assets increased $99,804 in 1997 following the Company's sale
of their interest in the N.E. Alden Field. There were no comparable sales in
1996.
Income from equity affiliates increased $121,977 in 1997. The Company's
principal equity investee, The Home-Stake Oil & Gas Company, reported net income
of $656,334 in the first quarter of 1997 and $246,634 in the same period of
1996. In addition, the Company's ownership in The Home-Stake Oil & Gas Company
increased from 31.7% to 33.9% in November, 1996.
Lease operating expenses decreased $54,203 (11%) due primarily to environmental
remediation expenses incurred in 1996 associated a property in which the Company
has a 9% working interest.
Dry hole costs increased $185,771 in 1997 resulting from the higher incidence of
dry holes, coupled with the Company's higher ownership interests.
Condemned and abandoned property expense increased $34,141 in 1997. 1997 expense
included the non-recurring abandonment of acreage costs associated with the dry
holes described above. 1996 results included a net credit of $6,943 which was
primarily the result of salvage credits of $12,488 received on a property
abandoned during the quarter.
Interest expense decreased $43,155 in 1997 reflecting the Company's lower
average borrowings.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
The Company's operating activities have traditionally been self-financed through
internally generated cash flows. The principal use of cash flows has generally
been to fund the Company's exploration and production activities and for the
payment of dividends to stockholders. The use of borrowed funds has generally
been limited to the acquisition of producing oil and gas properties where future
revenues from such purchases are expected to fund the debt.
The Company has an exploration and development budget for 1997 of $1.7 million.
During the first quarter the Company spent approximately $500,000 and has
current commitments of $600,000 for the remainder of the year. The Company is
also actively pursuing opportunities for the acquisition of producing properties
whenever possible.
Product prices have decreased 20% to 25% since the first of the year. Despite
these decreases, the Company expects to finance its budgeted 1997 operations and
drilling through internally generated cash flows. In addition, the Company's
line of credit is expected to be extended into 1998.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earning Per Share will
become effective for periods ending after December 15, 1997. Adoption of this
statement will not have a material effect on the Company's result of operations.
