VIRGINIA GAS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. GENERAL:
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of
September 30, 1999, and for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30,
1999 and 1998, include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present
fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Virginia
Gas Company (the Company or VGC). Operating results for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1999, are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1999.
The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Form 10-KSB filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 1999 and subsequent
10-QSB's.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements for 1999 and the
consolidated financial statements for 1998 include the accounts of four wholly
owned subsidiaries. The Company's investments in affiliated companies are
accounted for using the equity method. Investments carried at equity and the
percentage interest owned consist of Virginia Gas Storage Company (50 percent)
and Virginia Gas Distribution Company (50 percent).
In March 1998, the Company completed a refinancing transaction whereby
the Company issued $24 million in senior notes to John Hancock Mutual Life
Insurance Company and related entities. With the proceeds, the Company retired
or defeased $19.6 million of industrial revenue bonds. The remaining proceeds
were used to develop the Company's pipeline and storage projects. As a result
of this refinancing, the Company incurred a one time after-tax charge of
approximately $832,000. The Company and its affiliates had originally
capitalized as a regulatory asset a portion of this loss. Later in 1998, in
connection with the completion of administrative proceedings with the Virginia
State Corporation Commission, the Company determined that neither it nor its
affiliates qualify as regulated entities as defined by FASB Statement No. 71,
"ACCOUNTING FOR THE EFFECTS OF CERTAIN TYPES OF REGULATION." Accordingly, the
Company restated 1998 earnings to reflect the entire $832,000 extraordinary loss
and adjusted for amortization expense that was previously recorded throughout
1998. The loss related to the accelerated amortization of issue costs related to
the industrial revenue bonds, and defeasement premiums, interest, and other fees
related to the 1994 Russell County bond issue.
2. SEGMENT INFORMATION:
The Company classifies its business into five fundamental areas:
natural gas storage, production, transportation, propane distribution, and
parent company activities. Storage activities include revenues derived from and
expenses incurred in the operation of the Saltville Storage Facility. The
production segment includes gas sales from Company operated wells through its
Virginia Gas Marketing Company and the related expenses. Transportation
activities include revenue derived from the Company's P-25 pipeline system and
the expenses incurred to operate that system. The propane distribution segment
includes all revenues obtained through the retail distribution of propane and
the related expenses. The parent company activities relate solely to activities
of Virginia Gas Company as a holding company. Information as to the operations
of the Company in different business segments is set forth below based on the
nature of the products and services offered.

VIRGINIA GAS STORAGE COMPANY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited financial statements as of September 30,
1999, and for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1999 and
1998, include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Virginia Gas Storage
Company (VGSC). Operating results for the three and nine months ended September
30, 1999, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ending December 31, 1999.
The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Notes
to Financial Statements included in the Virginia Gas Company's Form 10-KSB filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 1999 and subsequent
10QSB's.
In February 1999, the Company sold its 60 percent interest in the Haysi
Gathering System for $2,700,000. This resulted in a net before tax gain of
$1,216,000 that is recorded as other income during the quarter ending March 31,
1999.
In March 1998, VGC completed a refinancing transaction whereby VGC
issued a $24 million note to John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company. With
the proceeds, VGC retired or defeased $19.6 million of industrial revenue bonds,
most of which had been previously allocated to VGSC and other affiliated
companies. As a result of this refinancing, VGSC incurred a one time after-tax
charge of $479,000. VGSC had originally capitalized as a regulatory asset a
portion of this loss. Later in 1998, in connection with the completion of
administrative proceedings with the Virginia State Corporation Commission, VGSC
determined that neither it nor its affiliates qualify as regulated entities as
defined by FASB Statement No. 71, "ACCOUNTING FOR THE EFFECTS OF CERTAIN TYPES
OF REGULATION." Accordingly, VGSC restated 1998 earnings to reflect the entire
$479,000 extraordinary loss and adjusted for amortization expense that was
previously recorded throughout 1998. The loss related to the accelerated
amortization of issue costs related to the industrial revenue bonds, and
defeasement premiums, interest, and other fees related to the 1994 Russell
County bond issue.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited financial statements as of September 30,
1999, and for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1999 and
1998, include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Virginia Gas
Distribution Company (VGDC). Operating results for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 1999, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
be expected for the year ending December 31, 1999.
The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Notes
to Financial Statements included in the Virginia Gas Company's Form 10-KSB filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 1999 and subsequent
10-QSB's.
VGDC has filed an application with the Virginia State Corporation
Commission (VSCC) requesting an increase in authorized rates. The rates will go
into effect in late January 2000 under bond and subject to refund based on
subsequent rulings of the VSCC. A hearing on the rate increase with the VSCC has
been tentatively scheduled for early February 2000.
In March 1998, VGC completed a refinancing transaction whereby VGC
issued a $24 million note to John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company. With
the proceeds, VGC retired or defeased $19.6 million of industrial revenue bonds,
most of which had been previously allocated to VGDC and other affiliated

VIRGINIA GAS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSIONS AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with Items 6 and
7 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,
1998, and the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in this
report.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
During the three months ending September 30, 1999, Virginia Gas Company
recorded net income of $60,000 compared to restated net income of $206,000 for
the same period in 1998. Basic and diluted net income per common share for the
quarter was $0.01 compared to $0.04 for the third quarter of 1998. For the nine
months ending September 30, 1999, the Company recorded net income of $986,000
compared to a restated loss of $357,000 for the same period in 1998. Basic and
diluted net income per common share for the nine months ending September 30,
1999 is $0.18 compared to a loss of $0.06 for the same period in 1999.
The Company recorded revenues of $2.62 million for the three-month
period ending September 30, 1999 compared to $2.25 million in 1998
representing a 16% increase. The Company's revenue growth was primarily
derived from the P-25 pipeline that began service late in 1998, increased gas
sales, and growth in the Company's propane distribution operations. The
Company recorded $285,000 in pipeline revenue during the third quarter of
1999 compared to $171,000 for the same period in 1998 from P-25. The
additional revenue was derived from demand charges for the Company's
connection at Wytheville, Virginia, which was not established until late
1998. Gas sales, including low margin sales from the Company's Saltville
Storage Facility, were $856,000 for the third quarter of 1999, up from
$663,000 for the same period in 1998. Total gas sold during the quarter was
down to 326,000 dth from 346,000 dth in 1998. However, the price per dth has
risen to $2.62 compared to $1.91 for the same period in 1998. Propane gas
sales increased 65 percent to $273,000 in the third quarter of 1999 from
$165,000 in 1998 as the Company's customer base increased to 3,800 from 2,500
and gallons sold increased to 306,000 from 197,000. The largest decline in
revenues occurred in interest, which decreased to $278,000 from $335,000.
This resulted from a reduction in cash available to be invested in short-term
securities. <TABLE><CAPTION>

</TABLE>
General and administrative expense increased during the third
quarter of 1999 to $547,000 from $362,000. This increase resulted from
several factors, the largest of which being professional services.
Professional services increased by $150,000 due to legal services resulting
from the Company's reincorporation study and investment banking fees from the
Company's strategic evaluation. The Company has been reviewing an
incorporation move from Delaware to Virginia and has devoted legal resources
toward that end. Additionally, the Company has retained an investment banking
firm to evaluate its strategic alternatives.
17
<PAGE>
During the third quarter of 1999, taxes other than income taxes
increased 296 percent to $119,000 from $30,000 in 1998. For the year to date,
taxes other than income taxes increased 156 percent to $280,000 from $109,000 in
1998. The majority of this for the quarter is from a $59,000 increase in
Delaware State franchise taxes, which resulted from the increase in authorized
equity approved in 1998. Also, the Company paid more gross receipts tax due to
its increased pipeline revenue.
Virginia Gas Storage Company (VGSC) recorded net income for the third
quarter of 1999 of $66,000 compared to $7,000 during 1998. VGSC's total revenues
were down in 1999 compared to 1998. This is a result of decreases in storage
volume under contract. However, the earnings improvement was derived from lower
operating costs and interest. Total operating expenses declined to $207,000 from
$286,000. There were no production expenses for the third quarter of 1999
compared to $38,000 in 1998, as a result of the sale of the Haysi Gathering
System in February 1999. Also as a result of this sale, depreciation has
decreased dramatically to $99,000 from $141,000 in 1998. Interest expense
declined in the third quarter of 1999 to $112,000 from $154,000, which is the
result of the $2.0 million reduction in long-term debt.
Virginia Gas Distribution Company (VGDC) recorded a net loss of
$129,000 compared to a restated net loss of $99,000 in 1998. Gas sales increased
29 percent to $214,000 from $165,000. VGDC's interest income declined to $25,000
from $62,000 due to the retirement of the $2.0 million note between VGSC and
VGDC. Operating expenses increased to $215,000 for the third quarter of 1999
from $159,000 mostly due to higher depreciation and higher purchased gas expense
that resulted from higher volume.
OUTLOOK
During the third quarter of 1999, the Company continued developing its
growth strategy for its pipeline, storage, and propane assets. Work continues on
the Company's evaporation plant located at the Saltville Storage Facility, which
is critical in developing additional salt cavern storage. The Company began
start-up operations at the facility in mid-summer and has been running it
continuously since mid-October. In addition to its work with the evaporator, the
Company opened a new propane retail facility in September to serve customers in
an adjacent county to the Company's existing territory. The Company also has an
application filed with the Virginia State Corporation Commission (VSCC) to
extend its pipeline to Roanoke, Virginia, where it will service a contract with
Roanoke Gas Company. Currently, the VSCC continues to review the application.
Prior to constructing the Roanoke extension described in the application, the
Company must complete 36 miles of construction on its P-25 pipeline from
Wytheville to Radford, Virginia. The Company has obtained the majority of the
right-of-way for this segment, including an easement through the National
Forest, which had been previously delayed. The Company plans to begin
construction in the spring of 2000.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Capital expenditures for the Company totaled $1.7 million for the three
months ending September 30, 1999. The Company drew an additional $1.0 million on
its line of credit with Wachovia Bank during the third quarter to finance these
capital expenditures. The remaining $.7 million was financed from operating cash
flow. The Company now estimates that its remaining capital budget for 1999 is
approximately $3.0 million. The Company expects to fund these expenditures as
well as the Company's construction expenditures for 2000 through debt financing.
To that end, the Company engaged Wachovia Capital Markets in April 1999 to
explore additional financing opportunities. That engagement is still ongoing.
18
<PAGE>
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain of the statements contained in this section of the report,
including those under "Outlook" and "Financial Condition" are forward-looking.
While Virginia Gas Company believes that these statements are accurate, the
Company's business is dependent upon general economic conditions and various
conditions specific to its industry, and future trends and these factors could
cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements
that have been made. In particular:
- - The Company's growth plans are contingent on its ability to affordably
finance future capital expenditures through the debt and equity markets. If
the Company is unable to finance capital expenditures, revenue growth will
be impacted.
- - Virginia Gas Company's revenue growth depends on future demand for pipeline
and storage services. Many factors impact that demand. A continued trend of
warmer than normal winters in the Company's service area could
substantially curb the demand for natural gas storage and/or pipeline
service. "Unbundling" or deregulation in the natural gas industry could
introduce additional competitors and make the viability of long-term
contracts suspect.
- - Virginia Gas Company derived 67% of its 1998 revenues from four customers.
Accordingly, the future of the Company is inexorably linked to these
significant customers. If any of these customers experience liquidity
problems or undergo consolidations, it could negatively impact the Company.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES. The Statement establishes accounting and reporting
standards requiring that every derivative instrument (including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) be recorded in the balance
sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. The Statement
requires that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized currently in
earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. Special accounting
for qualifying hedges allows a derivative's gains and losses to offset related
results on the hedged item in the income statement, and requires that a company
must formally document, designate, and assess the effectiveness of transactions
that receive hedge accounting. Statement No. 133 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000 and may not be applied retroactively. Management
has not yet quantified the impacts of adoption.
YEAR 2000 ISSUE
The Year 2000 ("Y2K") problem concerns the inability of information and
technology-based operating systems to properly recognize and process
date-sensitive information beyond December 31, 1999. This could result in
systems failures and miscalculations, which could cause business disruptions.
Equipment that uses a date, such as computers and operating control systems, may
be affected. This includes equipment used by our customers and suppliers, as
well as by utilities and governmental entities that provide critical services to
us.
The Company has been addressing the Y2K problem since 1997 and has
adopted a four phased approach to remediating the problem as it relates to the
Company. Phase I is SYSTEM IDENTIFICATION AND CLASSIFICATION. During this phase,
the Company methodically identified all systems within the operations area and
classified those systems as potentially vulnerable or not vulnerable. Phase I is
complete. Phase II is SYSTEM COMPLIANCE. During Phase II, the Company performed
field investigations to collect component level data for each system identified
as potentially vulnerable. That data was added to a database, which was
crosschecked with manufacturer compliance data and vendor contracts. If
compliant, a written statement from the manufacturer was obtained that provided
the language necessary to confirm that the Y2K issue had been properly
addressed. Phase II is complete. Phase III is entitled REMEDIATION. During the
remediation phase steps were taken to ensure that non-compliant systems had been
properly readied for the year 2000 and thoroughly tested. Phase III is complete.
Phase IV is PUBLICATION. This phase
19
<PAGE>
involved communication of the Company's readiness to our business partners in
addition to evaluation of the readiness of those same business partners. Phase
IV is complete.
As a part of our Y2K evaluation, the Company determined our most
reasonably likely worst case scenario or scenarios. With regards to our
storage and our natural gas production operations, our worst case scenario is
that there would be a temporary interruption in our ability to deliver gas to
our customers through a 3rd party pipeline system. In Phase IV of the
remediation plan, the Company received a readiness statement, and evaluated
the readiness of this 3rd party pipeline and is not aware of any problems.
Beyond establishing communications with our customers and the pipeline
company, there is not a contingency plan for this eventuality. However, the
Company does not believe that this scenario would have material financial
impact on the Company.
An additional most likely worst case scenario would be that the
Company's main propane supplier would be unable to deliver propane. As a
contingency, the Company has established multiple vendor relationships.
Additionally, the Company has increased its bulk storage capacity to 186,000
gallons from 96,000 gallons in the previous year. This will allow the Company to
deliver propane for 10 days without any supplier deliveries. The Company does
not believe that this eventuality will have a material financial impact on the
Company.
Based on the remediation effort and evaluation of the most reasonably
likely worst case scenarios, the Company has not experienced a material impact
from the Y2K problem, nor does it believe that the problem will have a material
future impact on the Company.
