See accompanying note. Note to Financial Statements 1. The interim financial data is unaudited; however, in our opinion, it includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the SEC's rules and regulations. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in GAAP financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC's rules and regulations. Our organization and business, the accounting policies we follow and other information are contained in the notes to our financial statements filed as part of our 1999 Form 10-KSB. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with such annual report. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION RESULTS OF OPERATIONS YEAR-TO-DATE COMPARISON ----------------------- The table below provides sales data and average prices for the period.
2000 1999 Sales Volume Average Price Sales Volume Average Price ------------ ------------- ------------ ------------- Oil - barrels South Cuyama field 175,800 $27.29 138,080 $14.55 Other 700 28.24 1,090 13.35 Gas - mcf South Cuyama field 31,450 3.43 24,700 2.28 Northern California 90,660 3.07 75,295 1.95 South Texas 53,185 3.00 5,400 2.03 New Mexico 39,900 3.03 46,620 1.64 Other 1,290 2.77 2,230 2.37 NGLs - barrels South Cuyama field 12,365 18.92 11,470 10.80 Other 3,840 17.35 3,160 8.21
Significantly higher oil prices and production caused the increase in oil revenue. Gas revenue increased primarily because of higher production from the new wells in Northern California and South Texas. During 1999, oil prices were so low that we kept operating expenses to a bare minimum. During 2000, oil prices almost doubled, and consequently, we substantially increased the SC Field's activity, which resulted in higher LOE. The increase in G&A is due primarily to bonuses and the addition of one extra person. The increase in exploration costs was due to the seismic shoot on acreage east of the SC Field. The increase in DD&A is due to an increase of $2 million in costs being amortized, because of the new wells that were drilled during the last 12 months and a downward revision in reserve estimates. During May, we sold some spec acreage in Wyoming that cost us $5,000 for $125,000 and retained a 4% ORRI. The SC Field's oil price on November 10, 2000 was $31.50/bbl. Gas prices in Northern California are currently $4.50/mcf, San Juan is $4.40, South Texas is $4.37, and SC Field is $4.25. QUARTER-TO-DATE COMPARISON -------------------------- The table below provides sales data and average prices for the period.

The explanations above for the year-to-date comparisons also apply to the quarter-to-date comparisons. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES ------------------------------- Cash and cash to be provided from operations are expected to enable us to meet our obligations as they become due during the next several years. On July 25, 2000, we paid $1,000,000 of our bank debt leaving a balance due of $231,000. We have a $4,000,000 line of credit which we can draw down at any time. THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION UPDATES THE MD&A CONTAINED IN ITEM 6 OF THE 1999 FORM 10-KSB AND THE TWO DISCUSSIONS SHOULD BE READ TOGETHER. PROSPECT DEVELOPMENT AND EXPLORATION ACTIVITY --------------------------------------------- South Cuyama Field ------------------ On October 5th, we completed the test well in the Black Sand. Currently, the well is producing 12 barrels of oil per day. Additional drilling to the Black Sand depends on the performance of this well. We completed the 3-D project on acreage east of the Field on October 3rd. We are currently evaluating the results of the shoot which should be known by mid- January. If we find drillable prospects, the permitting process in Santa Barbara County can be costly and time consuming. We have a 80% WI in this 3-D project. Total cost of this project was $360,000. At December 31, 1999, our pre-tax PV-10 for the SC Field was $20 million based on year-end oil prices of $23.45 per barrel. Based on November 10, 2000 higher prices of $31.50, and in spite of upward revisions to future operating costs, we now estimate the PV-10 to be in the $23 million range. Davis Prospect -------------- During May 2000, we participated in the drilling of two exploratory gas wells, both of which proved dry. Our final dry hole costs were about $226,000. South Texas ----------- An exploratory gas well is scheduled before the end of the year. We estimate our cost to be about $40,000. San Juan Basin -------------- Three development gas wells were drilled in early April 2000 and are currently producing. With the addition of these wells we receive about $20,000 in monthly gas revenue from this field. Paradox Basin-Utah ------------------ During June 1998, we leased about 6,000 acres in the Paradox Basin, Utah (about 25 miles from the Four Corners area). Geological and geophysical studies are underway in support of a future 3-D seismic survey. We have invested $200,000 in this area to date. We are evaluating the sale of this prospect acreage or possibly shooting the 3-D survey ourselves. East Texas ---------- This is a new prospect for us located about 80 miles southeast of Dallas. We plan to participate in an exploratory gas well to be drilled during December. Hallwood Energy is the operator. We have a 25% WI (20% NRI). This well will be drilled vertically to about 7,000 feet and then drilled laterally at two different depths extending each lateral between 5,000 and 9,000 feet. These type wells are very expensive to drill and our investment in this prospect will be about $425,000. This will be a high-risk, high-reward prospect. The targeted reserves range from three to five BCF. CATALYTIC SOLUTIONS INVESTMENT ------------------------------ In September, we exercised our warrant for $100,000 which gave us an additional half-percent in CSI, resulting in a total ownership of about 1%.
