                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

  The unaudited consolidated financial statements of PetroCorp Incorporated (the
"Company" or "PetroCorp") have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with
instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they
do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the
opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring
adjustments necessary for a fair presentation, have been included.  For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto for the year ended December 31, 1999, included in the Company's 1999
Annual Report on Form 10-K pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.  Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of
results of operations or cash flows for a full-year period.

NOTE 2 - RESTRUCTURING:

  As part of a restructuring plan, on August 3, 1999, PetroCorp's Board of
Directors entered into a Management Agreement with its largest shareholder,
Kaiser-Francis Oil Company ("Kaiser-Francis"), under which Kaiser-Francis
provides management, technical, and administrative support services for all
PetroCorp operations in the United States and Canada.  The Management Agreement
received shareholder approval on October 28, 1999 and was effective November 1,
1999.  The Company also entered into an Interim Agreement with Kaiser-Francis to
provide certain services pending receipt of shareholder approval of the
Management Agreement.  As the Management Agreement was effective November 1,
1999, the Interim Agreement ceased as of October 31, 1999.

  Under the terms of the Management Agreement, Kaiser-Francis is compensated
through a service fee, equal to administrative and overhead fees charged under
applicable operating agreements plus fixed fees for non-operated properties.
Additionally, Kaiser-Francis can earn overriding royalties or working interests
in certain circumstances.

  Fifty-two employees were terminated in 1999 with one employee terminated in
2000.  Several employees elected to defer receipt of their termination benefits
until 2000.  The following table shows the change in accrued restructuring
costs:

NOTE 3 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME OR LOSS:

    The 2000 net income per share and the 1999 net loss per share amounts do not
include the effect of potentially dilutive securities of 561,000 and 750,500, as
the impact on these outstanding options was antidilutive.

NOTE 5 - HEDGING ACTIVITIES:

    In the first quarter of 2000, the Company entered into swap transactions in
an effort to lock in a portion of higher oil prices which currently exist.
These transactions apply to approximately 50 percent of the Company's projected
oil production from April 2000 through December 2000, at prices ranging from
$23.57 to $29.00.  The fair value of the swap transactions, based on NYMEX oil
futures settlement prices as of March 31, 2000, would result in the company
receiving $18,000.  No hedge transactions were in place in 1999.

NOTE 6 - GEOGRAPHIC AREA INFORMATION

    The principal business of the Company is oil and gas, which consists of the
exploration, development, acquisition, exploitation and operation of oil and gas
properties and the production and sale of crude oil and natural gas in North
America.  Pertinent information with respect to the Company's oil and gas
business is presented in the following table (in thousands):

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS.

GENERAL

    The Company's principal line of business is the production and sale of its
oil and natural gas reserves located in North America.  Results of operations
are dependent upon the quantity of production and the price obtained for such
production.  Prices received by the Company for the sale of its oil and natural
gas have fluctuated significantly from period to period.  Such fluctuations
affect the Company's ability to maintain or increase its production from
existing oil and gas properties and to explore, develop or acquire new
properties.

    The following table reflects certain operating data for the periods
presented:

                                                 For the
                                              three  months

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1999

  Overview.   The Company recorded a first quarter 2000 net income of
$1,510,000, or $0.17 per share.  This compares to a net loss of $1,121,000 or
$0.13 per share recorded in the first quarter of 1999.  This improvement results
from higher oil and gas prices and lower general and administrative and
depreciation, depletion, and amortization expenses.  The Company recorded a $1.1
million ($682,000 after-tax) restructuring charge in the first quarter of 1999.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $2.3 million for the quarter ended
March 31, 2000 compared to net cash used of $0.4 million for the corresponding
quarter of 1999.

  Revenues. Total revenues increased 43% to $7.7 million in the first quarter of
2000 compared to $5.4 million in the first quarter of 1999, primarily due to
commodity price increases.  The Company's natural gas production decreased 17%
to 1,927 MMcf from 2,315 MMcf and oil production declined 7% to 113 MBbls from
121 MBbls, resulting in the Company's overall equivalent production declining
14% to 2,605 MMcfe from 3,041 MMcfe.  The decrease in natural gas production is
primarily the result of normal production declines coupled with temporary
reductions due to workover  and facility related downtime, as well as the shut
down for repairs, in March 2000, of the Minehead 8-13 well in Canada.  The
decrease in oil production reflects normal production declines.

  The Company's composite average oil price increased 148% to $27.25 per barrel
in the first quarter of 2000 from $11.00 per barrel in the first quarter of
1999.  The Company's average U.S. natural gas price increased 40% to $2.47 per
Mcf in the first quarter of 2000 from $1.76 per Mcf in the prior year quarter,
while the average Canadian natural gas price increased 34% to $1.77 per Mcf in
the first quarter of 2000 from $1.32 per Mcf for 1999.  The significant increase
in prices, partially offset by the decline in production volumes, resulted in a
45% increase in oil and gas revenues to $7.1 million in the first quarter of
2000 from $4.9 million in the prior year quarter.

  Production Costs. Production costs increased 3% to $1.7 million in the first
quarter of 2000 as a result of  workover operations for repairs and to enhance
production.  Production costs per Mcfe increased 21% to $0.64 per Mcfe in the
first quarter of 2000 from $0.53 in the same quarter of 1999.  Approximately
$.10 per Mcfe of increased costs are due to workover operations.

  Depreciation, Depletion & Amortization (DD&A). Total DD&A decreased 19% to
$2.2 million in the first quarter of 2000 from $2.7 million in the first quarter
of 1999.  The decrease reflects the impact of higher U.S. oil and gas reserves
due to price increases and field extensions.  The composite oil and gas DD&A
rate decreased 8% to $0.70 per Mcfe from $0.76 per Mcfe.

  General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses
decreased 64% to $0.4 million in the first quarter of 2000 from $1.1 million in
the first quarter of 1999 as a result of the Company's restructuring efforts and
the Management Agreement with Kaiser-Francis.  See Note 2 to the consolidated
financial statements.

  Restructuring Costs.  The Company recorded a $1.1 million restructuring charge
in the first quarter of 1999 related to the Company's pursuit of strategic
alternatives to maximize shareholder value.  See Note 2 to the consolidated
financial statements.

  Investment and Other Income.  Investment and other income increased 119% to
$193,000 in the first quarter of 2000 from $88,000 in the first quarter of 1999.

  Interest Expense.  Interest expense increased 9% to $1,026,000 in the first
quarter of 2000 from $935,000 in the prior year quarter, reflecting the impact
of rate increases, as described in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section.

  Income Taxes. The Company recorded a $1,051,000 income tax expense with an
effective tax rate of 41% on a pre-tax income of $2.6 million in the first
quarter of 2000.  This compares to an income tax benefit of $833,000 with an
effective tax rate of 43% on a pre-tax loss of $2.0 million in the first quarter
of 1999.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

  The Company has historically funded its capital expenditures and working
capital requirements with its cash flow from operations, debt and equity capital
and participation by institutional investors.  As of March 31, 2000, the Company
had working capital of $5.3 million as compared to $3.6 million at December 31,
1999.  Net cash provided by operating activities was $2.3 million for the
quarter ended March 31, 2000 compared to net cash used of $0.4 million for the
corresponding quarter of 1999.

  The Company's total capital expenditures, including capitalized internal costs
for 1999, were $2.0 million and $468,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2000
and 1999, respectively, primarily related to exploration and development.

  No sales of non-strategic oil and gas properties occurred in the first quarter
of either 2000 or 1999.

  In June 1997, the Company entered into a $50.0 million five-year revolving
credit agreement with the Toronto-Dominion Bank, the agent, and the Bank of Nova
Scotia. At March 31, 2000, the Company had a total of $27.0 million outstanding
under the revolver and $3,850,000 available based on the current borrowing base,
as defined, subject to certain limitations.  The facility was amended in June
1998 to extend the initial five-year term an additional year to July 1, 2003
with quarterly borrowing base amortization beginning September 30, 2001.  The
borrowings can be funded by either Eurodollar loans or Prime loans.  The
interest rate on the borrowings is equal to an interest rate spread plus either
the Eurodollar rate or the Prime rate.  The interest spread is determined from a
sliding scale based on the Company's borrowing base percentage utilization in
effect from time to time.  The spread ranges from 1-3/8% to 2% on Eurodollar
loans and 3/8% to 1% on Prime loans.  The Company's average interest rate under
this facility was approximately 8.4% during the first quarter of 2000, verses
6.4% during the first quarter of 1999.

  The Company plans to finance its 2000 capital expenditures from expected
operating cash flow and  working capital.  However, if the Company increases its
capital expenditure level in the future, or operating cash flow is not as
expected, capital expenditures may require additional funding, obtained through
borrowings from commercial banks and other institutional sources, public
offerings of equity or debt securities and existing and future relationships
with institutional investment partners.

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

     PetroCorp had no Year 2000 computer problems.  Minimal costs were expended
in this area.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

  The Company's primary sources of market risk are from fluctuations in
commodity prices, interest rates and exchange rates.

 Commodity Price Risk

  The Company produces and sells natural gas, crude oil, condensate, natural gas
liquids and sulfur.  As a result, the Company's financial results can be
significantly affected as these commodity prices fluctuate widely in response to
changing market forces.  The Company has previously utilized hedging
transactions to manage its exposure to price fluctuations on its sales of oil
and natural gas.  In the first quarter of 2000, the Company entered into swap
transactions in an effort to lock in a portion of higher oil prices which
currently exist.  These transactions apply to approximately 50 percent of the
Company's projected oil production from April 2000 through December 2000, at
prices ranging from $23.57 to $29.00.  The fair value of the swap transactions,
based on NYMEX oil futures settlement prices as of March 31, 2000, would result
in the company receiving $18,000.  No hedge transactions were in place in 1999.
