Market Information

There is no established trading market for the shares of common stock of the

Sales of Common Stock During 1997

During the first quarter of 1997, 90,000 shares (or 3,825,000 shares as
adjusted for the stock dividend discussed below) of the Company's common
stock was purchased by Lone Wolf Exploration, Inc., a non-affiliated
privately held Oklahoma corporation ("LWX"), in exchange for $100,000 in
cash. The transaction resulted in LWX owning 90% of the issued and
outstanding common stock of the Registrant. In connection with the
transaction, the Company paid fees in the amount of $100,000 to certain
unrelated third parties.
Common Stock Dividend During 1997
- ---------------------------------
During 1997, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a common stock
dividend to all shareholders of record as of June 30, 1997, which increased

Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
Plan of Operations
- ------------------
The Registrant plans to accumulate oil and gas assets by acquiring producing
properties from major oil and gas companies or from larger independent
companies; by developing and selling industry prospects that have a carried
interest and a controlled risk for the Company; and by acquiring oil and gas
companies with existing production and proved reserves in exchange for
common stock of the Company.
Until such time as the Registrant has purchased oil and gas assets,
management anticipates that only nominal operating expenses, which are
primarily accounting and legal fees related to the Registrant's compliance
as an SEC reporting company, will be incurred. Such nominal operating
expenses have been and management expects will continue to be paid directly
by certain shareholders of the Registrant. There is no assurance, however,
that material expenses will not be incurred or that shareholders will have
or will make available sufficient funds to cover such material expenses.

In May 1997, the Company changed its name from K&S Ventures, Inc. to Lone

Basis of Accounting
- -------------------
Assets, liabilities, equity, revenue and expenses are recorded under the

Cash and cash equivalents
- -------------------------
The Company considers all cash and marketable securities as cash equivalents.
Income Taxes
- ------------
For the years prior to 1997, the Company was taxed under the provisions of
Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code. Under the provisions of the Code,
all losses or taxable income flowed to the stockholders of the Company.
In January 1997, the Company's standing as a Subchapter S corporation, as
defined by the Internal Revenue Code, was changed because of the purchase of
common stock during 1997 by a corporate shareholder. Beginning with the year
ended December 31, 1997, the Company will be considered a "C" corporation for
income tax purposes.
Fiscal Year End
- ---------------
The Company's fiscal year end is December 31.
Earnings (Loss) per Share

Primary income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss)
by the weighted average shares of common stock of the Company outstanding
during the period (See Note 5).
Use of Estimates
- ----------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
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 revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
