General
Goodrich Petroleum Corporation and subsidiaries ("Goodrich" or "the
Company") is an independent oil and gas company engaged in the exploration,
development, production and acquisition of oil and natural gas properties in
the onshore portions of the United States, primarily the states of Louisiana
and Texas. In addition to itsThe Company owns working and overriding royalty interests in 91
active oil and gas activities, Goodrich owns a 20% non-
operated interestwells located in a Texas intrastate natural gas pipeline.37 fields in eight states. At December 31,
1996,1998, Goodrich had estimated proved reserves on a pro forma
basis (see discussion of acquisition below) of approximately 2,652 Mbbls3,093,000
barrels of oil and condensate and 21.528.1 Bcf of natural gas, or an aggregate of
37.446.7 Bcfe with a pre-tax present value of future net revenues, discounted at
10%, of $83.17 million, of which approximately 83% are classified as proved developed.
The Company owns working and overriding royalty interests in 87 oil and gas
wells located in 41 active fields.$40.63 million.
The Company's principal executive offices are located at 5847 San Felipe,
Suite 700 Houston, Texas 77057. The Company also has offices in Shreveport,
Louisiana. At March 3, 1997,2, 1999 the Company had 1116 employees.
Company Background
The CompanyGoodrich resulted from a business combination on August 15, 1995 between
La/Cal Energy Partners ("La/Cal") and Patrick Petroleum Company and
subsidiaries ("Patrick"). La/Cal was a privately held independent oil and gas
partnership formed in July 1993 and engaged in the development, production and
acquisition of oil and natural gas properties, primarily in Southern
Louisiana. Patrick was a NYSE-listed independent oil and gas company engaged
in the exploration, production, development and acquisition of oil and natural
gas properties in the continental United States. Patrick's oil and gas
operations and properties were primarily located in West Texas and Michigan at
the time of the combination, with additional operations and properties in
certain western states.
On January 31, 1997, the Company acquired the oil and gas properties of
La/Cal Energy Partners II ("La/Cal II") and certain working interest owners
for a purchase price of $16.5 million ("La/Cal II Acquisition"). The acquired
proved reserves consisted of 1,602,000 barrels of oil and 3,310,000 mcf of gas
with 81% classified as proved developed. The related major fields acquired are
located in South Louisiana and East Texas. The purchase
price was comprised of $1.5 million in cash, the assumption of $7.5 million of
La/Cal II long-term debt and the issuance of 750,000 shares of Series B
convertible preferred stock of the Company ("Series B Preferred Stock") with
an aggregate liquidation value of $7.5 million.
The Series B Preferred Stock accrues dividends at a rate of
8.25% per annum and each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into
8.92 shares of common stock. Such shares are redeemable by the Company after
January 31, 2001 at $10.00 per share.

Oil and Gas Operations and Properties
The following is a summary description of the Company's oil and gas
properties.
Louisiana
Substantially allThe majority of the Company's proved natural gas reserves are in the
SouthSouthern Louisiana producing region. The Southern Louisiana producing region
refers to the geographic area which covers the onshore and in-land waters of
South Louisiana lying in the southern one-half of the state of Louisiana.
The South Louisiana,
producing regionwhich is one of the world's most prolific oil and natural gas producing
sedimentary basins. The region generally contains sedimentary sandstones which
are of high qualities of porosity and permeabilities. There are a myriad of
types of reservoir traps found in the region. These traps are generally formed
by faulting, folding and subsurface salt movement or a combination of one or
more of these. Salt movement has resulted in a large number of shallow
piercement salt domes as well as deeper movements, which have resulted in both
large and small anticlinal structures.
The formations found in the SouthSouthern Louisiana producing region range in
depth from 1,000 feet to 20,000 feet below the surface. These formations range
from the Sparta and Frio formations in the Northernnorthern part of the region to
Miocene and Pleistocene in the Southernsouthern part of the region. The Company's
production comes predominately from Miocene and Frio age formations.

Kings Ridge 96 Field. Kings Ridge 96 is located in Lafourche Parish,
Louisiana. King's Ridge Field was discovered by Natural Gas and Oil Company in
1954. The field is set up geologically by three main faults which strike east-
west and create hydrocarbon traps on the downthrown side of the faults.
Typically, these downthrown traps are three-way structures that produce from
Miocene sands ranging in depth from 9,000' to 13,000'.
Goodrich has acquired approximately 307 acres from the Lafourche Parish
School Board and 114 acres from the Grandison Trust. Goodrich as operator has
drilled and completed three wells in the field to date and has an approximate
50% working interest.
Isle St. Jean Charles Field. Isle St. Jean Charles Field is located in
Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana. The field is a northwest extension of the Bayou
Jean LaCroix Field located in the southeastern part of the Parish. These
fields are trapped on a four-way closure downthrown on a major east-west
trending down to the south fault. Production is from multiple Miocene-aged
sands which are normally pressured and range in depth from 9,000 feet to
13,000 feet. The field was developed primarily in the 1950's by Exxon and
reservoirs have exhibited both depletion and water drive mechanisms. To date,
these fields have produced in excess of 51 billion cubic feet of gas and 6.52
million barrels of oil and condensate. There are currently five active wells
producing in these fields.
Goodrich acquired its working interest in its leasehold of approximately 425
acres through both acreage acquisitions and a farmout from Fina, et al. In
December 1997, Goodrich drilled the Dupont 38 #1 well. Goodrich is operator
and holds an approximate 38% working interest.
Second Bayou Field. The Second Bayou Field is located in Cameron Parish,
Louisiana and was discovered in 1955 by the Sun Texas Company. Goodrich is the
operator of seven producing wells, six of which are dually completed, and has
an average working interest of approximately 29% in 1,395 gross acres. To
date, the field has produced over 422 Bcf of natural gas and 2.7 million
barrels of oil from multiple Miocene aged sands ranging from 4,000 to 15,200
feet. Goodrich drilled and dually completed the Miami Fee No. 9 and No. 10
during 1998 based off of subsurface control and 3-D seismic which was shot in
1997. The two wells average 1,052 barrels of oil per day and 1.5 million cubic
feet of gas per day during December 1998.
Other major operators in the area are Fina Oil and Chemical Company, Texaco
Exploration and Producing , Inc. and Newfield Exploration.
Lake Raccourci Field. The Lake Raccourci Field was discovered by Humble Oil
and Refining Company ("Exxon") in 1949, with the field extended to the South
by Pan American ("Amoco") in 1958. Geologically, the field is a large four-way
dipping closure which is cross-cut by numerous Northeast-Southwest striking
down to the South faults. The field has produced from a minimum of eighteen
different Miocene age sandstones, which range in depth from 9,000'9,000 to 16,500'.16,500
feet. These normally and abnormally pressured reservoirs exhibit depletion,
water and combination drive mechanisms, and have produced in excess of 830832
billion cubic feet of gas and 20 million barrels of oil and condensate. There
are currently sixnine producing wells in the field.
Goodrich acquired its average 20% working interest in the field through a
farmout from MW Petroleum ("Apache") in July 1996. In October 1996 an agreement was
reached with Exxon whereby they were allowed to participate as a working
interest owner in the drilling of the Goodrich--State Lease 3258 No. 1 well in
return for a contributing acreage to be included in a voluntary unit for the
well. In addition to participating in the well, Exxon agreed to farmout an
additional 320 acres ofand a separate prospectfarmout from
Exxon. The Company controls approximately 1,079 acres in the field on State Lease 14589.
The Companyand is
currently controls approximately 3,800 acres and has plans to
drill at least three additional wells in the field, including the State Lease
14589 prospect which is scheduledevaluating 3D seismic for drilling in the first quarter of 1997.
In December 1996, Goodrich tested the State Lease 3258 No. 1 well in the Bol
6 sand at a rate of 5.3 million cubic feet of gas, 687 barrels of oil, and
zero barrels of water per day on a 10/64 inch choke with a flowing tubing
pressure of 9570# psi. The well encountered five additional productive sands
with a total of approximately 100 feet of net pay. Independent reservoir
engineers have assigned gross proved reserves of 25.9 Bcfe to the well.
Goodrich owns an approximate 16% working interest in the well, with net
reserves to the Company estimated at 3.3 Bcfe.
South Pecan Lake Field. The South Pecan Lake Field was initially developed
in the early 1950's by Amoco. South Pecan Lake Field, located in Cameron
Parish, Louisiana, is a faulted four-way closure separated from the Pecan Lake
Field by a major down to the South, East-West trending fault. The field has
produced predominately gas and gas condensate from multiple Miocene aged sand
reservoirs ranging in depths from 4,000 feet to 15,000 feet. These reservoirs
are generally characterized by strong water drive production mechanisms. The
South Pecan Lake Field has produced in excess of 650 Bcf of gas and nine
million barrels of oil and condensate. In addition to Goodrich Petroleum
Corporation, Apache is a major operator in the South Pecan Lake Field.
3
Goodrich acquired its interest through leasing approximately 384 acres and
drilled the Miami Corporation 5 No. 1 in September 1996 and has a working
interest of approximately 40%. The well was dually completed and tested at
totals of 2.1 million cubic feet of gas and 192 barrels of oil per day. The
dually completed well was turned to sales during January 1997. A development
well is planned for the second quarter of 1997.further exploitation opportunities.
Pecan Lake Field. The Pecan Lake Field was discovered in 1944 by the
Superior Oil Company. Geologically, the field is comprised of a relatively low
relief four-way closure and multiple stacked pay sands. The Pecan Lake Field
comprises approximately 870 gross leased acres in Cameron Parish, Louisiana,
approximately 42 miles southeast of Lake Charles, Louisiana. The field has
produced from over 15 Miocene sands ranging in depths from 7,500 to 11,800
feet, which have been predominately gas and gas condensate reservoirs. These
sand reservoirs are characterized by generally widespread development and
strong waterdrive production mechanisms. The field has produced in excess of
345348 Bcf of gas and 622,000680,000 barrels of condensate. All the field production to
date has come from reservoirs which are of normal pressure. In May 1992, La/Cal enteredThe Company is the
Pecan Lake Field under a farmout arrangementoperator of five producing wells with Mobil, whereby Mobil retained a one-eighth overriding interest in the
prospectively developed wells subject to the farmout. In April 1993, La/Cal
leased an additional 133.24 gross acres in the Pecan Lake Field from Miami
Corp. for approximately $62,000. In March 1994, La/Cal acquired (i) all of
Mobil's interest in La/Cal's actual and prospectively drilled wells, (ii) a
43.10% working interest in Mobil's Miami Corp. S13, B15 and B16 wells, and
(iii) a 2.26% overriding royalty interest in Mobil's Cutler No. 1 wells for
approximately $2.1 million. Pecan Lake consists of seven well completions
through four well bores. The Company's working interests rangeranging from
approximately 43% to 47%.
The Company's average daily production at Pecan Lake
was 30.06 Bbls of oil and and/or condensate and 2.44 Mmcf of natural gas
during 1996. As of December 31, 1996, the Company's interests in the Pecan
Lake Field had proved reserves of 57.00 Mbbls of oil and condensate and 7.13
Bcf of natural gas.3
Ada Field. The Ada Field was discovered by Hope Producing Company in 1945.
The field is located in Bienville Parish, in North Louisiana. Geologically,
the field is a turtle feature between two salt domes exhibiting a four-way
anticline with two main horst blocks, a main graben block, and several
compensating faults. The field has produced from numerous Lower Cretaceous
sands and lime facies, with the sands being predominately lenticular in
deposition. The producing interval for the field ranges from 4,500'4,500 to 10,000',10,000
feet, with the production being primarily a pressure depletion mechanism. As of December 31, 1996, Ada
Field has produced over 654656 Bcf of natural gas and 5.2 MMbblsmillion barrels of oil.
Goodrich acquired itshas six producing wells in the field, two of which were drilled
during 1998. Goodrich owns an approximate 43% working interest of approximately 40% through a
farmout of various individual working interest owners. In September 1996,in the Youngblood No. 1 was drilled and dually completed. From September 15, 1996,
first date of production, through December 31, 1996, the dually completed well
has produced over 400 Mmcf of natural gas. Goodrich anticipates drilling a

Australia
Goodrich has interest in three exploration permits in the Carnarvon Basin of
Western Australia.
The developmental stage of the offshore Carnarvon Basin of Western Australia
is comparable to the Gulf of Mexico in 1950. The Carnarvon Basin is two-thirds
the size of the Gulf of Mexico and has produced in excess
4
of 4.3 TCF and 550 million barrels of oil from less than 1000 wells. In
comparison, the Gulf of Mexico has produced approximately 104 TCF of gas and 9
billion barrels of oil from 30,000 wells. The Carnarvon Basin retains
significant exploration potential. Additional strengths of the basin include
large inexpensive acreage blocks, vast available geological and geophysical
data sets, existing and expanding petroleum infrastructure and increasing
domestic demands for natural gas.
EP-395. Goodrich Petroleum acquired a new discovery by Goodrich Oil Company in 1994.
Currently there is one producing well with Goodrich as operator having an
approximate 44%20% non-operated working interest in
the 240 square kilometer Exploration Permit in 1995. The Permit is
approximately 753 acres. To date, the well30 km east from Barrow Island Field which has produced over 53,000300
million barrels of oil and Goodrich intends to drill85 km southwest and on trend with the recent
Wandoo, Stag and Reindeer discoveries. Since 1995, the partners have
reprocessed the original 2-D seismic data sets, shot a 38 km 3-D seismic
survey (1995), and shot an additional 93 km of high quality 2-D seismic
(1997). Interpretation of this data has confirmed two separate prospects:
Lindsay and West Boyd. These prospects are structural closures with associated
seismic amplitude anomalies. The primary objective for these prospects is the
Mardie Greenstone. This objective is a late cretaceous age, shallow marine
sandstone with porosities ranging up to 33%. A well duringis anticipated to be
drilled on the second quarterLindsay prospect in late 1999. Carnarvon Petroleum N.L. is the
operator of 1997.

EP-396. The Company acquired a 33% non-operated working interest in 1995.
EP-396 encompasses 400 square kilometers and is in close proximity to EP-395.
The partnership has reprocessed and interpreted the available 2-D seismic data
sets. One strong lead has emerged from the seismic data, which is a prospect
called the Nolan Prospect. This prospect is a downthrown three way closure
along the major down to the west Candace fault system. The available 2-D
seismic data set indicates an associated seismic amplitude anomaly. TAP Oil
N.L. is the operator of EP-396.
EP-397. This Permit is 160 square kilometers and the Company has a 33%
working interest. The 130 km of available seismic has been reprocessed and
interpreted with several promising prospect leads. This Permit is in the
earliest stages of exploratory investigation as compared with EP-395 and
EP-396.

There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved
reserves and in projecting future rates of production and timing of
development expenditures, including many factors beyond the control of the
Company. Reserve engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground
accumulations of crude oil, condensate and natural gas that cannot be measured
in an exact manner, and the accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of
the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation
and judgment. The quantities of oil and natural gas that are ultimately
recovered, production and operating costs, the amount and timing of future
development expenditures and future oil and natural gas sales prices may all
differ from those assumed in these estimates. Therefore, the Present Value of
Future Net Revenues amounts shown above should not be construed as the current
market value of the estimated oil and natural gas reserves attributable to the
Company's properties.
In accordance with the Commission's guidelines, the engineers' estimates of
future net revenues from the Company's properties and the Present Value of
Future Net Revenues thereof are made using oil and natural gas sales prices in
effect as of the dates of such estimates and are held constant throughout the
life of the properties except where such guidelines permit alternate
treatment, including the use of fixed and determinable contractual price
escalations. The weighted average prices as of December 31, 19961998 used in such
estimates were $4.17$2.24 per Mcf of natural gas (historical) and $23.88$9.37 per Bbl of crude
oil/condensate (historical) and $4.07 per Mcf of natural gas (pro forma)
and $23.53 per Bbl (pro forma).condensate. Oil andprices have subsequently increased while gas prices have
subsequently declined from December 31, 19961998 levels.

Undeveloped acreage is considered to be those lease acres on which wells
have not been drilled or completed to a point that would permit the production
of commercial quantities of natural gas andor oil, regardless of whether or not
such acreage contains proved reserves. As is customary in the oil and gas
industry, the Company can retain its interest in undeveloped acreage by
drilling activity that establishes commercial production sufficient to
maintain the leases or by payment of delay rentals during the remaining
primary term of such a lease. The natural gas and oil leases in which the
Company has an interest are for varying primary terms; however, most of the
Company's developed lease acreage is beyond the primary term and is held by
producing natural gas and/or oil wells.
The Company participated in several farmout agreements with other owners of
natural gas and oil leases and is actively leasing acreage in Louisiana and
Texas.

Oil and Gas Marketing and Major Customers
Marketing. Goodrich's natural gas production is sold under spot or market-
sensitive contracts and to various gas purchasers on short-term contracts.
Goodrich's natural gas condensate is sold under short-term rollover agreements
based on current market prices. The Company's crude oil production is marketed
to several purchasers based on short-term contracts.
The Company entered into an agreement with Natural Gas Ventures, L.L.C.
("NGV"), a Louisiana limited liability company, that affiliates of Goodrich
Oil Company formed in August 1994, to operate as an agent for the purpose of marketing
Goodrich Oilthe Company's and its contracting parties' natural gas. The Company and other
contracting parties contribute natural gas to NGV, which NGV then markets to
gas purchasers, pursuant to the Joint Venture Agreement between NGV and Seaber
(described below)Corporation of Louisiana ("Seaber"). The Company can terminate this agreement
on 60-days advance notice. The Company and the other contracting
parties are entitled to participate, on a pro rata basis, in any net profits
or equity benefits received by NGV under its Joint Venture Agreement with
Seaber, provided the Company and the other contracting parties have not
terminated the agreement and are delivering gas under the agreement at the
time the net profits and equity interest are earned. The Company believes its contract with NGV allows it to
realize higher prices for its contributed gas because of the greater market
power associated with larger volumes of gas than the Company would have for
sale on a stand-alone basis.
NGV has entered into a natural gas marketing joint venture agreement (the
"Joint Venture Agreement") with Seaber whereby Seaber acts as agent for NGV in
its gas marketing efforts. Pursuant to the Joint Venture Agreement, Seaber
arranges short-term gas sales contracts on behalf of NGV with gas purchasers,
and NGV delivers to Seaber sufficient gas quantities to fulfill NGV's
contractual obligations. NGV can terminate the Joint Venture Agreement on a
60-days advance notice. During the term of the Joint Venture Agreement, on a
calendar year basis, NGV has the option to share in 50 percent of all Seaber's
net profits provided that NGV meets certain scheduled delivery requirements.
Each year, 25% of NGV's share of the Seaber net profits is retained by Seaber
as an account payable, which Seaber uses as additional working capital. At the
end of the term of the Joint Venture Agreement, and subject to delivering
scheduled volumes of gas, NGV can elect to convert its cumulative accounts
payable into 50% of the outstanding Seaber common stock, or can choose to
receive the payable in cash.
10
As set forth above, provided certain conditions are met, NGV will distribute
the Seaber net profits and equity interests if any, to its contracting parties
on a pro rata basis.
Sean Andrew Field. Goodrich's oil production is gathered by pipeline and
purchased by Mobil at a premium over the posted price. The gas is purchased by
GPM on a thirty day spot basis.
Natural Gas. Goodrich's natural gas production is sold under spot or market-
sensitive contracts and to various gas purchasers on short-term contracts.
Goodrich's natural gas condensate is sold under short-term rollover agreements
based on current market prices.
Customers. Due to the nature of the industry the Company sells its oil and
natural gas production to a limited number of purchasers and, accordingly,
amounts receivable from such purchasers could be significant. Additionally,
the Company receives net monthly payments from its partner, Mitchell Marketing
Company, in its pipeline joint venture. Revenues from
these sources as a percent of total revenues for the periods presented were as

Natural Gas Pipeline Joint Venture
Pecos Pipeline & Producing Company ("Pecos"), one of the Company's
subsidiaries, has a 20% interest in a joint venture with Ferguson Crossing
Pipeline Company, now Southwestern Gas Gathering, Inc. ("Southwestern") a
subsidiary of Mitchell Energy and Development Company, relating to an
intrastate pipeline. Pecos and its related facilities are located in Leon and
Madison Counties, Texas. The pipeline and related facilities are referred to
as the "Pecos Pipeline Systems". Southwestern acts as the manager of the joint
venture and the net proceeds are distributed to the venturers on a monthly
basis, subject to the retention of one month of working capital.
In September 1993, the same parties created another joint ventureDakota for the
purpose of separating the gas contract from the physical pipeline. The joint
venture participants are National Marketing Company, which is a subsidiary of
the Company, and Mitchell Marketing Company. This joint venture is known as
"Madison Gas Marketing Services" ("Madison Gas").
The joint ventures were established for the purposes of buying and/or
transporting gas from producers and other pipelines under various contracts at
various receipt points and delivering or reselling the gas to Lone Star Gas
Company ("Lone Star") under the terms and conditions of a premium priced/fixed
volume 20-year contract dated October 1, 1981. On August 31, 1994, effective
November 1, 1994, Madison Gas entered into a settlement agreement for the
remaining term of the contract providing for (i) a total fixed contract
quantity of 23,826,560 Mmbtu, (ii) a monthly average daily contract quantity
not to exceed 18,000 Mmbtu during the months of November through March, (iii)
a monthly average daily contact quantity not to exceed 7,000 Mmbtu during the
months of April through October, (iv) an average annual gross profit margin of
$1.74 per Mmbtu less operating expenses and (v) six additional delivery
points. The Lone Star contract terminates at some time in the year 2000
depending upon the monthly average daily contract quantities taken under the
settlement agreement.

Investment in Marcum Natural Gas Services
TheOn January 5, 1999 the Company presently owns 675,200 shares of the common stock of Marcum
Naturalsold its investment in National Gas Services
("Marcum"), or approximately 5.5% of the Marcum common
stock outstanding. for $240,000. Marcum is a publicly held diversified provider of
products and services to the natural gas industry.
Competition
The oil and gas industry is highly competitive. Major and independent oil
and gas companies, drilling and production acquisition programs and individual
producers and operators are active bidders for desirable oil and gas
properties, as well as the equipment and labor required to operate those
properties. Many competitors have financial resources substantially greater
than those of the Company, has, and staffs and facilities substantially larger than
those of the Company. The availability of a ready market for the oil and gas
production of the Company will depend in part on the cost and availability of
alternative fuels, the level of consumer demand, the extent of other domestic
production of oil and gas, the extent of importation of foreign oil and gas,
the cost of and proximity to pipelines and other transportation facilities,
regulations by state and federal authorities and the cost of complying with
applicable environmental regulations.
9
Regulations
The availability of a ready market for any natural gas and oil production
depends upon numerous factors beyond the Company's control. These factors
include regulation of natural gas and oil production, federal and state
regulations governing environmental quality and pollution control, state
limits on allowable rates of production by a well or proration unit, the
amount of natural gas and oil available for sale, the availability of adequate
pipeline and other transportation and processing facilities and the marketing
of competitive fuels. For example, a productive natural gas well may be "shut-in""shut-
in" because of an oversupply of natural gas or the lack of an available
natural gas pipeline in the areas in which the Company may conduct operations.
State and federal regulations generally are intended to prevent waste of
natural gas and oil, protect rights to produce natural gas and oil between
owners in a common reservoir, control the amount of natural gas and oil
produced by assigning allowable rates of production and control contamination
of the environment. Pipelines are subject to the jurisdiction of various
federal, state and local agencies as well.
Federal Regulation of Natural Gas
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") regulates the
transportation and resale of natural gas in interstate commerce pursuant to the
Natural Gas Act of 1938 (the "NGA"). Since 1978, the Natural Gas Policy Act of
1978 (the "NGPA") has regulated maximum selling prices of certain categories of
gas in either interstate or intrastate commerce. FERC also administers the
NGPA. Under the Natural Gas Wellhead Decontrol Act of 1989, however, most
regulation and control of natural gas have been eliminated. None of the
remaining areas of regulation under the NGA and NGPA have a direct effect on
the Company's operations. There can be no assurance, however, that the
Company's production of natural gas will not be subject to federal regulation
in the future.
In April 1992, subsequently as amended, FERC issued Order 636, a rule which
restructures the interstate natural gas transportation and marketing system to
ensure that direct sales of gas by producers or marketers receive pipeline
service comparable to pipeline gas sales. FERC Order 636 is intended to provide
"open access" to producers for transportation of gas on ten interstate pipeline
systems.
Environmental Regulation
Various federal, state and local laws and regulations covering the discharge
of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of
the environment, may affect the Company's operations and costs as a result of
their effect on oil and gas development, exploration and production
operations. It is not
12
anticipated that the Company will be required in the
near future to expend amounts that are material in relation to its total
capital expenditures program by reason of environmental laws and regulations
but, inasmuch as such laws and regulations are frequently changed by both
federal and state agencies, the Company is unable to predict the ultimate cost
of continued compliance. Additionally, see existing EPA matters discussed in
Item 3--Legal Proceedings.
State Regulation of Oil and Gas Production
State statutes and regulations require permits for drilling operations,
drilling bonds and reports concerning operations. In addition, there are state
statutes, rules and regulations governing conservation matters, including the
unitization or pooling of oil and gas properties, establishment of maximum
rates of production from oil and gas wells and the spacing, plugging and
abandonment of such wells. Such statutes and regulations may limit the rate at
which oil and gas could otherwise be produced from the Company's properties
and may restrict the number of wells that may be drilled on a particular lease
or in a particular field.
(There are currently discussions in several states
relating to the imposition of limitations on annual natural gas production
rates.)
ITEMItem 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.Legal Proceedings.
The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") has identified the Company
as a potentially responsible party ("PRP") for the cost of clean-up of
"hazardous substances" at an oil field waste disposal site in Vermilion
Parish, Louisiana. The Company estimates that the remaining cost of long-term
clean-up of the site will be approximately $3.5 million, with the Company's
percentage of responsibility to be approximately 3.05%. As of December 31,
1996,1998, the Company has paid approximately $135,000$321,000 in costs related to this
matter and has $275,000$92,000 accrued for the remaining liability. These costs have
not been discounted to their present value. The EPA and the PRPs will continue
to evaluate the site and revise estimates for the long-term clean-up of the
site. There can be no assurance that the cost of clean-up and the Company's
percentage responsibility will not be higher than currently estimated. In
addition, under the federal environmental laws, the liability costs for the
clean-up of the site is joint and several among all PRPs. Therefore, the
ultimate cost of the clean-up to the Company could be significantly higher
than the amount presently estimated or accrued for this liability.
The Company is party to additional lawsuits arising out ofin the normal course of
business. However, theThe Company has defended and intends to continue to defend these actions vigorously and believes,
based on currently available information, that adverse results or judgments
from such actions, if any, in excess of insurance
coverage or amounts already provided, will not be material to theits financial position or
results of operationsoperations.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Background of Business Combination and Basis of Presentation
The Company was created by the combination of Patrick Petroleum Company
("Patrick") and La/Cal Energy Partners ("La/Cal") in August 1995. The
combination of Patrick and La/Cal was effected primarily by two concurrent
transactions: (a) the contribution by La/Cal of substantially all of its
assets and liabilities to the Company in exchange for 19,765,226 shares of
Common Stock and (b) the merger Patrick and an indirect wholly owned
subsidiary of Patrick (the "Merger") whereby (i) each of the 19,765,226
outstanding shares of Patrick common stock ("Patrick Common Stock") was
converted into one share of Common Stock; (ii) each outstanding share of
Patrick Series B Convertible Preferred Stock was converted into one share of
the Company's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and (iii) Patrick, the
surviving corporation in the Merger, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company.
The La/Cal--Patrick business combination was accounted for on the basis of
purchase accounting, with La/Cal deemed to be the acquiror. Accordingly, on
August 15, 1995, the Company recorded the assets and liabilities of Patrick at
fair value, whereas the assets and liabilities of La/Cal are reflected at
historical book value. The consolidated financial statements reflect the
operations solely of La/Cal for periods prior to August 15, 1995, whereas such
financial statements reflect the operations of the combined entities for
periods subsequent to August 15, 1995. As a result, comparison of the current
and prior period financial statements presented is significantly impacted by
the combination transactions and, accordingly, will not be indicative of
future operating results. Prior to the combination transactions, La/Cal was a
privately owned Louisiana general partnership which was formed on July 15,
1993, by the contribution of certain oil and gas properties owned by the
partners.
As more fully discussed in "1997 Acquisition," the Company acquired the oil
and gas properties of La/Cal Energy Partners II and certain working interest
owners on January 31, 1997.
Results of Operations
As noted above, the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended
December 31, 1994 and the period from July 15, 1993 through December 31, 1993,
reflect the operations of La/Cal only, whereas the statement of operations for
the year ended December 31, 1995, reflects the operations solely of La/Cal
prior to the combination date (August 15, 1995) and the operations of the
combined entities subsequent to the combination date.
Year ended December 31, 1996 versus year ended December 31, 1995--Total
revenues in 1996 increased to $9,858,000 and were $3,684,000 (60%) higher than
total revenues in 1995 due to a full year of the combined entities which
resulted in higher oil and gas sales. Oil and gas sales were $2,211,000 higher
due primarily to increased oil production as a result of the inclusion of
revenues of the combined entities in 1996 along with increased oil prices for
the year. Gas production for 1996 was lower primarily due to the early
abandonment of two wells producing from a gas reservoir in the Lake Charles
Field and a third well producing at a reduced rate compared to 1995. One of
the abandoned wells has recently been completed in an oil reservoir. The
dollar impact of this decrease was more than offset by increased gas prices
received in 1996. In addition, 1996 contains a full year of revenues from the
pipeline joint venture which contributed $1,538,000 compared to $573,000 for
1995.
The following table reflects the production volumes and pricing information
for the periods presented:
1996 1995
------------------------ ------------------------
PRODUCTION AVERAGE PRICE PRODUCTION AVERAGE PRICE
---------- ------------- ---------- -------------
Gas (Mcf)............... 1,623,377 $ 2.60 2,213,923 $ 1.72
Oil (Bbls).............. 165,964 $20.88 102,731 $16.27
Lease operating expense and production taxes were $1,615,000 for 1996
compared to $1,030,000 for 1995 or $585,000 higher due to the addition of the
Patrick oil and gas properties. Lease operating expenses per Mcfe
16
were $.46 in 1996 compared to $.22 in 1995 due to the high level of such
expenses of the Patrick properties versus the La/Cal properties. Depletion,
depreciation and amortization was $3,788,000 versus $1,786,000 due to a full
year of the combined entities, including amortization of the pipeline joint
venture. Oil and gas depletion and depreciation per Mcfe was $1.02 in 1996
versus $.48 in 1995, the increase due to the Patrick properties carrying a
significantly higher rate per Mcfe.
The Company incurred $1,149,000 of exploration expense in 1996 compared to
$193,000 in 1995 due to a full year of the combined entities in 1996 versus
four and one-half months in 1995. Included in the 1996 exploration expense is
$542,000 of costs related to dry holes during the period versus $40,000 of
such costs in 1995.
General and administrative expenses amounted to $2,096,000 for 1996 versus
$739,000 due to the Company providing its own general and administrative
services for the full year in 1996 versus four and one-half months in 1995.
Additionally, as a public company, the Company incurs a higher level of
general and administrative expenses than a privately held company.
Interest expense was $828,000 in 1996 compared to $1,132,000 (27% lower) due
to the Company having lower average debt outstanding and a lower effective
interest rate in 1996 compared to 1995.
The Company's preferred stock dividends amounted to $645,000 for 1996
(twelve months dividends on average of 806,000 shares outstanding) compared to
$255,000 (four and one-half months dividends on average of 849,000 shares
outstanding).
Year ended December 31, 1995 versus year ended December 31, 1994--Revenues
in 1995 amounted to $6,174,000 and were $1,161,000 (23%) higher than 1994 due
to the inclusion of the combined entities subsequent to August 15, 1995, which
produced higher oil and gas sales. This was primarily due to higher volumes of
oil production for the period slightly offset by slightly lower gas production
and prices (see volume and price table below). Additionally, 1995 includes the
revenues from the pipeline joint venture which was acquired from Patrick and
contributed $573,000 in the period.
1995 1994
------------------------ ------------------------
PRODUCTION AVERAGE PRICE PRODUCTION AVERAGE PRICE
---------- ------------- ---------- -------------
Gas (Mcf)............... 2,213,923 $ 1.72 2,386,130 $ 1.85
Oil (Bbls).............. 102,731 $16.27 36,487 $15.99
Lease operating expense and production taxes were $345,000 or 50% higher,
due to the higher production volumes and depletion, depreciation and
amortization was $629,000 or 54% higher than 1994, due to the addition of the
Patrick properties subsequent to August 15, 1995, including the amortization
of the pipeline joint venture.
The Company recorded an impairment from the adoption of FASB Statement No.
121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to Be Disposed Of in the fourth quarter of 1995 in the amount of
$157,000. Additionally, the Company incurred $193,000 of exploration expense
in 1995, whereas the 1994 amount was only $4,000 due to La/Cal having
virtually no exploration activities.
The large variance ($658,000) in general and administrative expenses is due
to the fact that La/Cal was provided substantially all of its general and
administrative expenses at no cost by an affiliate, whereas the Company
provides its own general and administrative services. Additionally, as a
public company, the Company incurs a higher level of general and
administrative expenses than as a privately held company.
Interest expense was $60,000 (6%) higher in 1995 due to the Company (from
August 15, 1995 through December 31, 1995) and La/Cal (from January 1, 1995
through August 14, 1995) having slightly higher average debt outstanding in
1995 than La/Cal in 1994. A partial offsetting factor to this was the
Company's lower effective interest rate from August 15, 1995 to December 31,
1995.
17
The statements of operations for both periods reflect no income taxes due
to: 1) the individual partners of La/Cal being responsible for such taxes for
the periods containing the operations of La/Cal only and 2) the Company
incurring a loss for the period from August 15, 1995, through December 31,
1995, as a result of the extraordinary item discussed below.
In connection with the combination transactions, the Company paid off
La/Cal's General Obligation Notes, and the related unamortized debt financing
costs of $483,000 were charged to operations as an extraordinary item in the
third quarter of 1995.
The Company assumed Patrick's Convertible Preferred Stock and has incurred
related dividends of $255,000 from August 15, 1995 to December 31, 1995.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided by operating activities was $4,373,000 in 1996 compared to
$3,579,000 in 1995 and $2,823,000 in 1994. The Company's accompanying
consolidated statements of cash flows identify major differences between net
income and net cash provided by operating activities for each of the years
presented.
Net cash used by investing activities amounted to $4,163,000 in 1996
compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $8,877,000 in 1995
and net cash used of $3,720,000 in 1994. The year ended December 31, 1996
amount is substantially comprised of $3,992,000 in capital expenditures. The
year ended December 31, 1995, reflects the receipt by the Company of
$9,600,000 cash in September from the sale of the investment in the Penske
Corporation as well as $1,514,000 from the sale of certain properties in
Michigan, Montana and North Dakota in the fourth quarter. This was offset by
the payment by the Company of $1,088,000 in connection with the business
combination and $650,000 for capital expenditures. The year ended December 31,
1994 reflects $3,720,000 in capital expenditures, due to extensive drilling
and completion activities and acquisition of producing properties by La/Cal
during that year.
Net cash used by financing activities in 1996 totaled $479,000 compared to
$12,553,000 in 1995 and net cash provided by financing activities of $856,000
in 1994. The 1996 amount primarily consists of the borrowing of $1,800,000
against the Company's line of credit partially offset by debt paydowns of
$1,550,000 and the payment of preferred stock dividends of $645,000. The 1995
amount included the borrowing of $21,000,000 by the Company which was used
primarily to pay off the debt assumed from La/Cal and Patrick ($19,778,000).
The remainder of the loan proceeds were used to provide working capital and
pay accrued interest. The year ended 1995 also reflects debt paydowns as
follows: i) $915,000 by La/Cal on its General Obligation Notes prior to August
15, 1995; ii) $9,500,000 by the Company on its credit facility in September
from the Penske sale proceeds; iii) $500,000 by the Company on its credit
facility from operations/working capital; iv) $1,250,000 by the Company in the
fourth quarter from the sale of certain oil and gas properties. The 1995
amount also includes partnership distributions by La/Cal of $1,133,000 prior
to August 15, 1995 and the Company's preferred stock dividends subsequent to
the business combination in the amount of $363,000. The 1994 amount consists
of La/Cal borrowings ($5,720,000) used to partially fund the significant
capital expenditures mentioned above. This was offset by partnership
distributions of $3,107,000 and subsequent payments of $1,757,000 on the
borrowings.
The Company has a credit facility with Compass Bank which provides for a
total borrowing base determined by the bank every six months based, in part,
on the Company's oil and gas reserve information. Such borrowing base is
$12,300,000 as of December 31, 1996. The maturity date for all amounts drawn
under the bank credit facility is June 1, 1998. Interest is based on either of
two methods at the option of the Company: the bank's prime lending rate or
LIBOR plus 2%. Interest rates are set on specific draws for one, two, three or
six month periods, also at the option of the Company. The weighted average
interest rate at December 31, 1996 was 7.7%. The credit facility requires the
Company to maintain minimum net worth of $8,500,000 plus 50% of net income, as
defined, subsequent to September 30, 1995 and a minimum debt service ratio of
1.25 to 1. The amount outstanding under the credit facility as of December 31,
1996 was $10,000,000. See discussion of 1997 credit facility revisions in
"1997 Acquisition" below.
18
The Company plans to incur capital expenditures in the amount of
approximately $7,500,000 in calendar year 1997. The Company plans to finance
such expenditures from its operating cash flow.
The Company's business strategy is to explore and develop drilling prospects
along the Gulf Coast and in West Texas and pursue strategic acquisitions of
oil and gas properties that offer additional development drilling
opportunities. It is anticipated that such acquisitions would be financed with
bank or other institutional borrowings or from the issuance of equity
securities.
1997 Acquisition
On January 31, 1997, the Company acquired the oil and gas properties of
La/Cal Energy Partners II ("La/Cal II") and certain working interest owners
for a purchase price of $16.5 million ("La/Cal II Acquisition"). The purchase
price was comprisedconsisted of $1.5 million cash, the assumption of $7.5 million La/Cal II
long-term debt and the issuance of 750,000 shares of Series B convertible
preferred stock of the Company ("Series B Preferred Stock") with an aggregate
liquidation value of $7.5 million. In connection with the La/Cal II
Acquisition, the Company increased its borrowing base under its credit
facility to $22.5 million and
borrowed an additional $9 million to payoffretire or (payoff) La/Cal II's debt and
to pay the cash portion of the purchase price. The Series B Preferred Stock
accrues dividends at a rate of 8.25% per annum and each share of Series B
Preferred Stock is convertible into 8.921.12 shares of common stock. Such shares
are redeemable by the Company after January 31, 2001 at $10.00 per share.
Results of Operations
Year ended December 31, 1998 versus year ended December 31, 1997--Total
revenues in 1998 amounted to $10,592,000 and were $2,309,000 (18%) lower than
total revenues in 1997 due to lower oil and gas revenues and the loss of
revenues from the pipeline joint venture. Oil and gas sales were $1,515,000
lower due primarily to lower oil and gas prices, partially offset by higher
production volumes. Revenues from the pipeline joint venture were $-0- in 1998
compared to $1,078,000 in 1997 due to the sale of the asset in the fourth
quarter of 1997.
The following table reflects the production volumes and pricing information
for the periods presented:
1998 1997
------------------------ ------------------------
Production Average Price Production Average Price
---------- ------------- ---------- -------------
Gas (Mcf)............... 2,782,825 $ 2.18 2,449,320 $ 2.55
Oil (Bbls).............. 316,768 $11.88 282,380 $18.06
Lease operating expense and production taxes were $2,822,000 for 1998
compared to $2,316,000 for 1997, or $506,000 higher, due primarily to the
Company not incurring, in the 1997 period, ad valorem taxes related to the
La/Cal II properties which were the responsibility of the La/Cal II partners.
Additionally, the 1998 period includes eight additional producing wells and
twelve months of lease operating expense and production taxes for the La/Cal
II properties, compared to eleven months for 1997 due to the effective date of
the acquisition being January 31, 1997. Depletion, depreciation and
amortization was $4,094,000 in 1998 versus $4,863,000 in 1997, or $769,000
lower, substantially due to no amortization of the pipeline joint venture in
1998 compared to $741,000 in 1997.
The Company incurred $6,010,000 of exploration expense in 1998 compared to
$3,206,000 in 1997. Included in the 1998 exploration expense is $3,684,000 of
costs related to dry holes during the period versus $2,342,000 of such costs
in 1997.
The Company recorded an impairment in the recorded value of certain oil and
gas properties in the fourth quarter of 1998 in the amount of $1,076,000 due
to lower oil prices and higher than expected depletion rates. This compares to
an impairment of $550,000 recorded in the same period a year ago.
Interest expense was $1,910,000 in 1998 compared to $1,417,000 (35% higher)
due to the Company having higher average debt outstanding, slightly offset by
a lower effective interest rate in 1998 compared to 1997.
General and administrative expenses amounted to $2,399,000 for 1998 versus
$2,628,000 in 1997.
13
The Company's preferred stock dividends amounted to $1,256,000 for 1998
compared to $1,205,000 in 1997 or $51,000 higher due to twelve months of
dividends being paid on the Company's Series B Preferred Stock in the current
year versus eleven months in the prior year.
Year ended December 31, 1997 versus year ended December 31, 1996--Total
revenues in 1997 increased to $12,901,000 and were $3,132,000 (32%) higher
than total revenues in 1996 due to increased oil and gas revenues, offset by
lower revenues from the pipeline joint venture. Oil and gas sales were
$3,664,000 higher due substantially to increased revenues as a result of the
La/Cal II acquisition (effective January 31, 1997) along with increased gas
volumes on the pre-acquisition properties, offset somewhat by lower oil and
gas prices. Revenues from the pipeline joint venture were $459,000 lower in
1997 due to the sale of the asset in the fourth quarter of 1997.
The following table reflects the production volumes and pricing information
for the periods presented:
1997 1996
------------------------ ------------------------
Production Average Price Production Average Price
---------- ------------- ---------- -------------
Gas (Mcf)............... 2,449,320 $ 2.55 1,623,377 $ 2.60
Oil (Bbls).............. 282,380 $18.06 165,964 $20.88
Lease operating expense and production taxes were $2,316,000 for 1997
compared to $1,615,000 for 1996 or $701,000 higher due primarily to the
addition of the La/Cal II properties. Depletion, depreciation and amortization
was $4,863,000 versus $3,788,000 for 1996 or $1,075,000 higher due to the
addition of the La/Cal II properties, offset by approximately $300,000 less
amortization of the pipeline joint venture. Included in depletion,
depreciation and amortization is depletion of oil and gas properties of
$4,066,000 and $2,684,000, respectively.
The Company incurred $3,206,000 of exploration expense in 1997 compared to
$1,149,000 in 1996. Included in the 1997 exploration expense is $2,342,000 of
costs related to dry holes during the period versus $542,000 of such costs in
1996.
The Company recorded impairments in the recorded value of certain oil and
gas properties in 1997 in the amount of $550,000.
Interest expense was $1,417,000 in 1997 compared to $828,000 due to
borrowings by the Company of $9,000,000 on January 31, 1997 in connection with
the La/Cal II Acquisition, resulting in higher average debt outstanding than
for the prior year.
General and administrative expenses amounted to $2,628,000 for 1997 versus
$2,096,000 in 1996 due largely to expenses associated with the addition of six
employees in 1997.
The Company recorded a gain on the sale of its interest in the pipeline
joint venture of $688,000 in 1997.
The Company's preferred stock dividends amounted to $1,205,000 for the
twelve months ended December 31, 1997 compared to $645,000 for 1996. The
increase was due to dividends paid on the Company's Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock issued on January 31, 1997 in connection with the La/Cal II
Acquisition.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided by operating activities was $4,517,000 in 1998 compared to
$6,633,000 in 1997 and $4,292,000 in 1996. The Company's accompanying
consolidated statements of cash flows identify major differences between net
income (loss) and net cash provided by operating activities for each of the
years presented.
Net cash used by investing activities amounted to $14,959,000 in 1998
compared to $6,007,000 in 1997 and $4,082,000 in 1996. The year ended December
31, 1998 is composed almost entirely of cash paid for
14
exploration and drilling capital expenditures of $14,879,000. The year ended
December 31, 1997 reflects non-acquisition capital expenditures of $9,157,000
and of cash paid in connection with the purchase of oil and gas properties of
$2,075,000. These amounts were offset by proceeds from sale of the Company's
interest in the pipeline joint venture ($3,564,000) and sale of certain oil
and gas properties located in Montana. The year ended December 31, 1996 amount
is substantially comprised of $3,911,000 in capital expenditures.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $9,744,000 in 1998 compared to
net cash used in financing activities of $177,000 in 1997 and $479,000 in
1996. The 1998 amount includes the borrowing of $11,500,000 by the Company
under its line of credit offset by paydowns during the year of $500,000.
Preferred stock dividends in 1998 amounted to $1,256,000 (Series A and Series
B). The 1997 amount includes the borrowing of $9,000,000 by the Company under
its line of credit which was used to pay off the debt assumed in the La/Cal II
Acquisition and to pay the cash portion of the purchase price. The 1997 amount
also includes other borrowings of $3,000,000 against its line of credit offset
by paydowns during the year of $3,500,000 and the payoff of La/Cal II debt of
$7,464,000. Preferred stock dividends in 1997 amounted to $1,205,000 (Series A
and Series B). The 1996 amount primarily consists of the borrowing of
$1,800,000 against the Company's line of credit partially offset by debt
paydowns of $1,550,000 and the payment of preferred stock dividends of
$645,000 (Series A only).
At December 31, 1998, the Company was not in compliance with a restrictive
covenant of its existing credit facility and, accordingly, the entire
principal amount outstanding is presented in current maturities of long-term
debt. The amount outstanding under the credit facility as of December 31, 1998
was $29,500,000. On March 29, 1999 the Company signed a preliminary agreement
with Compass Bank to restructure its existing credit facility. The preliminary
credit agreement will allow the Company to be in compliance with all covenants
upon execution of the agreement. The preliminary agreement provides for a
borrowing base facility of $20,500,000 with monthly reductions of $50,000 on
April 1, 1999 and May 1, 1999, $200,000 on June 1, 1999 and $300,000 on July
1, 1999 and each month thereafter. Semi-annual borrowing base determinations
will be made beginning July 1, 1999 based in part on the Company's oil and gas
reserve information. The maturity date for amounts drawn under the Borrowing
Base facility is February 1, 2001. Interest on such facility is based on LIBOR
plus 2% and rates are set on specific draws for one, two, three or six month
periods at the option of the Company.
The preliminary agreement also establishes a Tranche A facility in the
amount of $9,000,000. The maturity date for the Tranche A facility is December
1, 1999. The Tranche A requires that excess cash flow from operations, as
defined in the preliminary agreement, be applied to outstanding principal and
interest until the maturity date, with interest based on the Compass Bank
Index Rate plus 2%.
The preliminary agreement requires the net proceeds of asset sales be used
to extinguish outstanding principal and interest under the borrowing base
facility and Tranche A. Additionally, under the terms of the preliminary
agreement, the Company may not make any distributions or pay dividends,
including dividends on any class of its preferred stock, until Tranche A is
paid in full.
Additionally, budgeted capital expenditures are required to be approved by
the Lender prior to closing, and such approval shall be effective for a period
of six months or until such time as an increase is requested. Furthermore,
provided actual capital expenditures do not exceed the approved budgeted
amount, the determination of capital expenditures is at the sole discretion of
the Company. The preliminary agreement also requires that the Company's vendor
accounts payable balance shall not exceed $2,500,000 as of June 30, 1999. The
Company's vendor accounts payable balance was $3,721,000 at December 31, 1998.
The preliminary agreement is subject to definitive documentation and Lender
credit approval.
The terms of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock provide that the Company
will not incur additional debt after such time as it reports financial results
which show the Company's stockholders' equity to be less than the liquidation
preference of the Series A Preferred Stock. As of December 31, 1998, the
Company's stockholders' equity was approximately $4.9 million and the
liquidation preference on the outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred
Stock was approximately $7.9 million. As a result, the Company is unable to
incur additional debt under its credit facility or from other sources at the
present time.
15
Due to the Company's existing current working capital deficiency, required
pay downs under its credit facility and the restrictions imposed by the Series
A Preferred Stock, management is exploring a number of alternatives that are
directed toward making the Company profitable and improving its liquidity. The
principal strategies include:
1) raising additional capital through the issuance of equity securities,
or a combination of equity and subordinated debt;
2) acquisition of value enhancing oil and gas properties that offer
additional development opportunities and increased cash flow;
3) mergers and/or acquisitions by other entities;
4) reducing operating costs;
5) sale of certain oil and gas properties;
6) renegotiation or amendment of the Company's credit facility and
capital structure
As with any plan of this nature, its ultimate realization will depend upon
the cooperation of creditors, potential investors and others. As a result, the
outcome of the plan cannot presently be determined and no adjustments related
to the specific considerations of management's plan have been made in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. Should the plan not be
completed, the Company may not be able to liquidate liabilities as they come
due. In addition, the Company's current liquidity situation and its agreement
with Compass Bank have resulted in a suspension of new drilling expenditures
until such time as certain aforementioned principle strategies have been
effected.
Quarterly Cash Dividends
The Company announced on March 23, 1999 that it has suspended payment of its
regular quarterly cash dividend on both classes of its Preferred Stock. This
measure was taken to conserve cash for corporate and operating purposes and
was precipitated by the recent drop in commodity prices. The Company has no
plans to reinstate the cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
Year 2000
The Company is in the process of assessing the ability of its various
electronic operating systems, and those of significant third parties, to
appropriately consider periods and dates after December 31, 1999. The
Company's senior financial management has taken responsibility for
identifying, addressing and monitoring its Year 2000 issues. These individuals
report to the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors on a periodic basis.
For Company systems identified as not being Year 2000 compliant, the Company
has developed plans to correct these systems and expects to be compliant on
the systems by the second quarter of 1999.
As for third parties with which the Company has a material relationship, the
Company is in various stages of discussions and conclusions related to the
ability of those third parties to become compliant and the related timing
thereof.
The estimated costs associated with becoming Year 2000 compliant are not
expected to be material to the Company.
The Company has begun, but not yet completed, a comprehensive analysis of
the operational problems and costs (including loss of revenues) that would be
reasonably likely to result from the failure by the Company and certain third
parties to complete efforts necessary to achieve Year 2000 compliance timely.
A contingency plan has not been developed for dealing with the most reasonably
likely worst case scenario, and such scenario has not yet been clearly
identified. The Company currently plans to complete such analysis and
contingency planning by the second quarter of 1999.
The failure to correct a material Year 2000 problem could result in an
interruption in, or failure of, certain normal business activities or
operations. Such failures could materially and adversely affect the Company's
16
results of operations, liquidity and financial condition. Due to the general
uncertainty inherent in the Year 2000 problem, resulting in part from the
uncertainty of the Year 2000 readiness of third-party suppliers and customers,
the Company is unable to determine at this time whether the consequences of
Year 2000 failures will have a material impact on the Company's results of
operations, liquidity or financial condition. The Company's Year 2000 efforts
are expected to significantly reduce the Company's level of uncertainty about
the Year 2000 problem. The Company believes that, with the implementation of
new business systems and completion of the various above-mentioned tasks as
scheduled, the possibility of interruptions to normal operations should be
significantly reduced.
Stock Listing
The Company was notified by the New York Stock Exchange that it is not in
compliance with certain of the Exchange's minimum financial criteria for
listed companies. The Company submitted a three-year business plan to the
Exchange in response to the notice. The Exchange accepted the Company's
business plan and will monitor its compliance with the plan on a quarterly
basis. As described above, the Company's liquidity situation may make it
difficult for the Company to adhere to this business plan. If the Company
fails to do so, there can be no assurance that the New York Stock Exchange
will not delist the Company common stock.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Debt and debt-related derivatives
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its short-term and long-term
debt with variable interest rates ($29.5 million at December 31, 1998). Based
on the overall interest rate exposure on variable rate debt at December 31,
1998 a hypothetical 2% change in the interest rates would not materially
affect the Company's financial position, net income or liquidity.
Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Annual Report on Form 10-K includes "forward-looking statements" within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act") and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"). All statements other than statements of
historical facts included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K regarding reserve
estimates, planned capital expenditures, future oil and gas production and
prices, future drilling activity, the Company's financial position, the
ability to become year 2000 compliant, business strategy and other plans and
objectives for future operations, are forward-
lookingforward-looking statements. Although the
Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking
statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations
will prove to be correct. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in
estimating quantities of proved oil and natural gas reserves and in projecting
future rates of production and timing of development expenditures, including
many factors beyond the control of the Company. Reserve engineering is a
subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural
gas that cannot be measured in an exact way, and the accuracy of any reserve
estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and
geological interpretation and judgment. As a result, estimates made by
different engineers often vary from one another. In addition, results of
drilling, testing and production subsequent to the date of an estimate may
justify revisions of such estimate and such revisions, if significant, would
change the schedule of any further production and development drilling.
Accordingly, reserve estimates are generally different from the quantities of
oil and natural gas that are ultimately recovered. Additional important
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the
Company's expectations include changes in oil and gas prices, changes in
regulatory or environmental policies, production difficulties, transportation
difficulties and future drilling results. All subsequent written and oral
forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on
its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by such factors.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Goodrich Petroleum Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Goodrich
Petroleum Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 19961998 and 1995,1997, and
the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity,
comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the years in the three year
period ended December 31, 1996.1998. These consolidated financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Goodrich
Petroleum Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 19961998 and 1995,1997, and
the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in
the three year period ended December 31, 1996,1998, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared
assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note Dnote C
to the consolidated financial statements, in 1995,working capital deficiencies,
required payments under the Company adoptedcredit facility and restrictions imposed
by the provisionsCompany's Series A Preferred Stock raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard
to these matters are discussed in note C. The consolidated financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome
of Financial Accounting Standards Board's
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed of.this uncertainty.

crude oil and natural gas. The Subsidiariessubsidiaries have interests in such operations
in eightseven states, primarily in Louisiana and Texas. TheTwo of the Company's
subsidiaries also havehad a minority interest in a natural gas pipeline joint
venture located in the state of Texas.Texas until such interest was sold in 1997.
NOTE B--BUSINESS COMBINATIONB--Business Combinations
On August 15, 1995,January 31, 1997, the transactions contemplated byCompany acquired the Agreementoil and Plangas properties of Merger among Patrick Petroleum Company ("Patrick"),
La/Cal Energy Partners II ("La/Cal"Cal II"), Goodrich Petroleum Corporation (the "Company"), and Goodrich
Acquisition, Inc. were completed. The Agreement providedcertain working interest owners
for a combinationpurchase price of Patrick$16.5 million ("La/Cal II Acquisition"). The purchase
price was comprised of $1.5 million cash, the assumption of $7.5 million of
La/Cal II long-term debt and the issuance of 750,000 shares of Series B
convertible preferred stock of the Company ("Series B Preferred Stock") with
an aggregate liquidation value of $7.5 million. In connection with the La/Cal
asII Acquisition, the Company borrowed an additional $9 million under its bank
credit facility, which was used to repay $7.5 million of La/Cal II debt and to
pay the $1.5 million cash portion of the purchase price. The Series B
Preferred Stock has a resultdividend rate of which the businesses previously conducted
by Patrick8.25% per annum and La/Caleach share of
Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into 1.12 shares of common stock. Such
shares are now conductedredeemable by the Company which is a Delaware
corporation formed for the purpose of consummating such transactions, and its
subsidiaries.after January 31, 2001 at $10.00 per
share.
The combination of Patrick and La/Cal II acquisition was effected primarily by
two concurrent transactions: (a) the contribution by La/Cal of all of its
assets and liabilities (excluding cash and accounts receivable accrued prior
to March 1, 1995, and interest thereon) to the Company in exchange for
19,765,226 shares of the Company's common stock (the "Common Stock") and (b)
the merger of Goodrich Acquisition with and into Patrick (the "Merger")
whereby (i) each outstanding share of Patrick common stock ("Patrick Common
Stock") was converted into one share of Common Stock; (ii) each outstanding
share of Patrick Series B Convertible Preferred Stock was converted into one
share of the Company's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and (iii) Patrick,
the surviving corporation in the Merger, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Company.
La/Cal was formed, by the contribution of certain oil and gas properties
owned by the partners, on July 15, 1993, pursuant to the provisions of the
State of Louisiana, for the purpose of engaging in the domestic exploration
for oil and gas reserves primarily in the States of Louisiana and Texas. Under
the provisions of the Agreement of Partnership, the business of La/Cal was to
acquire interests in leases within a defined program area in Louisiana and
certain railroad districts in East Texas (as amended from time to time) and
drill primarily development wells. La/Cal also engaged in the development,
production, and sale of any commercial accumulations of oil and gas
discovered. Profits, losses, and distributable cash were allocated to the
individual partners as defined in the Partnership Agreement.
NOTE C--BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The combination transactions were accounted for as a purchase business
combination in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 16,
Business Combinations whereby La/Cal was deemed to be the acquiror and Patrick
the acquiree. Accordingly, on August 15, 1995, the Company recorded the assets
and liabilities of Patrick at fair value, whereas the assets and liabilities
of La/Cal are reflected at historical book value. The consolidated financial
statements reflect the operations solely of La/Cal for periods prior to August
15, 1995, whereas such financial statements reflect the operations of the combined entities for periods subsequentrelated properties are included in the
Company's results of operations effective January 31, 1997.
NOTE C--Liquidity and Management's Plan
Liquidity--As disclosed in Note G, the Company's current liabilities include
the outstanding principal balance under the Company's credit facility of
$29,500,000. Additionally, the Company is unable to August 15, 1995.incur additional debt
under its credit facility or from any other sources until such time as its
stockholders' equity balance is greater than the liquidation preference of the
Series A Preferred Stock of approximately $7.9 million.
Management's Plan--Due to the Company's existing current working capital
deficiency, required pay downs under its credit facility and the restrictions
imposed by the Series A Preferred Stock, management is exploring a number of
alternatives that are directed toward making the Company profitable and
improving its liquidity. The principal strategies include:
1) raising additional capital through the issuance of equity securities;
or a combination of equity and subordinated debt;
2) acquisition of value enhancing oil and gas properties that offer
additional development opportunities and increased cash flow;
3) mergers and/or acquisitions by other entities;
4) reducing operating costs;
5) sale of certain oil and gas properties;
6) renegotiation or amendment of the Company's credit facility and
capital structure
As with any plan of this nature, its ultimate realization will depend upon
the cooperation of creditors, potential investors and others. As a result, the
outcome of the plan cannot presently be determined and no

GOODRICH PETROLEUM CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 1996
Property and Equipment--The Company uses the successful efforts method of
accounting for exploration and development expenditures.
Leasehold acquisition costs are capitalized. When proved reserves are found
on an undeveloped property, leasehold cost is reclassified to proved
properties. Significant undeveloped leases are reviewed periodically, and a
valuation allowance is provided for any estimated decline in value. Cost of
all other undeveloped leases is amortized over the estimated average holding
period of the leases.
Costs of exploratory drilling are initially capitalized, but if proved
reserves are not found, the costs are subsequently expensed. All other
exploratory costs are charged to expense as incurred. Development costs are
capitalized, including the cost of unsuccessful development wells.
During the fourth quarter of 1995, theThe Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of. Underfollows SFAS No. 121 and recognizes an impairment is determined to have occurred and a loss is recognized when the
net of future cash inflows expected to be generated by an identifiable long-livedlong-
lived asset and cash outflows expected to be required to obtain those cash
inflows is less than the carrying value of the asset. The Company performs
this comparison for its oil and gas properties on a field-by-
fieldfield-by-field basis. The
amount of such loss is measured based on the difference between the discounted
value of such net future cash flows and the carrying value of the asset. The
Company recorded such an impairmentimpairments in 1998 and 1997 in the fourth
quarteramounts of
1995 in$1,076,000 and $550,000, respectively. The impairments were the amountresult of
$157,000.
Prior to the adoption of SFAS 121, undiscounted future net revenues were
compared annually to net capitalized cost of all oil and gas properties to
determine if an impairment had occurred in the amount capitalized.certain fields depleting earlier than anticipated.
Depreciation and depletion of producing oil and gas properties are provided
under the unit-of-production method. Proved developed reserves are used to
compute unit rates for unamortized tangible and intangible development costs,
and proved reserves are used for unamortized leasehold costs. Estimated
dismantlement, abandonment, and site restoration costs, net of salvage value,
are considered in determining depreciation and depletion provisions.
Gains and losses on disposals or retirements that are significant or include
an entire depreciable or depletable property unit are included in income. All
other dispositions, retirements, or abandonments are reflected in accumulated
depreciation, depletion, and amortization.
Cash and Cash Equivalents--Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand,
demand deposit accounts and temporary cash investments with maturities of
ninety days or less at date of purchase.
Marketable Equity Securities--In accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 115, theSecurities--The Company has classified its investment in
marketable equity securities as available for sale. Accordingly, unrealized
holding gains and losses are excluded from earnings and are reported as a
separate component of stockholders'other
comprehensive income until realized. The Company sold its marketable equity
until realized.securities in January 1999.

Income Taxes--The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting StandardsSFAS No. 109, Accounting
for Income Taxes which requires income taxes be accounted for under the asset
and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for
the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to
apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are
expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period
that includes the enactment date.
The federal income tax effect of La/Cal's activities (prior to August 15,
1995) is not reflected in the financial statements since such taxes were the
responsibility of the individual partners of La/Cal. The Company became
subject to income taxes as of August 15, 1995, as a result of the business
combination.
Earnings Per Share--As discussed previously, La/Cal's activities prior toShare--Basic income per Common share is computed by dividing

Stock Based Compensation--Prior to January 1, 1996, theCompensation--The Company accounted
for its stock option plans in accordance with the provisions of Accounting
Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, and related interpretations. In the fourth quarter of 1996, the
Company adopteduses SFAS No. 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation, which permits entities to recognize as expense over
the vesting period the fair value of all stock-based awards on the date of
grant. Alternatively, SFAS No. 123 also allows entities to continue to apply
the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees
and provide pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per share and other
disclosures for employee stock options grants made in 1995 and future years as
if the fair-value-based method defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied. The
Company has elected to continue to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25
and provide the pro forma disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123.
Commitments and Contingencies--Liabilities for loss contingencies, including
environmental remediation costs, arising from claims, assessments, litigation,
fines and penalties, and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a
liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment and/or
remediation can be reasonably estimated. Recoveries from third parties which
are probable of realization are separately recorded, and are not offset
against the related environmental liability.
Use of Estimates--Management of the Company has made a number of estimates
and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these consolidated
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Stock Option and Incentive Programs--Goodrich currently has two plans which
provide for stock option and other incentive awards for the Company's key
employees, and consultants and its directors. The Goodrich Petroleum Corporation 1995
Stock Option Plan allows the Board of Directors through its
Compensation Committee, to grant stock options,
restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights, long-term incentive awards
and phantom stock awards, or any combination thereof to key employees and
consultants. The Goodrich Petroleum Corporation 1995 Nonemployee1997 Director Stock OptionCompensation
Plan provides for the grant of stock and options to each director who is not
and has never been an employee of the Company. Additionally, Goodrich assumed
certain outstanding stock options of Patrick as a result of the business
combination.combination in 1995.
The Goodrich Petroleum plans authorize grants of options to purchase up to a combined
total of 3,500,000437,500 shares of authorized but unissued common stock. Stock options
are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the stock's fair market
value at the date of grant and all stock options granted under the 1995 Stock
Option Plan generally have ten year terms and five year pro rata vesting.
The per share weighted-average fair value of stock options granted during
1998, 1997 and 1996 was $2.17, $2.57 and 1995 was $ .382 and $ .485$3.06 on the date of grant using the
Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average
assumptions: 1996--expected1998--expected dividend yield 0%, risk-free interest rate of
7.5%, and an expected life of 6 years; 1995--expected1997--expected dividend yield 0%, risk-
free interest rate of 7.5%, and an expected life of 6 years; 1996--expected
dividend yield 0%, risk-free interest rate of 7.5%, and an expected life of 6
years; expected volatility of stock over expected life of the options--35%.
The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for its Planplans and,
accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock options in
the financial statements. Had the Company determined compensation cost based
on the fair value at the grant date for its stock options under SFAS No. 123,
the Company's net income (loss) would have been reduced to the pro forma

and its stock options are considered to be potential common stock but have not
been included in the computation of diluted earnings per share reflect only options granted in
1996 and 1995. Therefore, the full impact of calculating compensation costsbecause to do
so would have been antidillutive for stock options under SFAS No. 123 is not reflected in the pro forma net
income amounts presented above because compensation costs are reflected over
the options' vesting period of approximately 5 years and compensation for

NOTE I--COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIESI--Commitments and Contingencies
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") has identified the Company
as a potentially responsible party ("PRP") for the cost of clean-up of
"hazardous substances" at an oil field waste disposal site in Vermilion
Parish, Louisiana. The Company has estimated that the remaining cost of long-
term clean-up of the site will be approximately $3.5 million with the
Company's percentage of responsibility to be approximately 3.05%. As of
December 31, 1996,1998, the Company has paid approximately $135,000$321,000 in costs
related to this matter and has $275,000$92,000 accrued for the remaining liability.
These costs have not been discounted to their present value. The EPA and the
PRPs will continue to evaluate the site and revise estimates for the long-term
clean-up of the site. There can be no assurance that the cost of clean-up and
the Company's percentage responsibility will not be higher than currently
estimated. In addition, under the federal environmental laws, the liability
costs for the

clean-up of the site is joint and several among all PRPs. Therefore, the
ultimate cost of the clean-up to the Company could be significantly higher
than the amount presently estimated or accrued for this liability.
Additionally, the Company is party to a number of lawsuits arising in the
normal course of business. The Company has defended and intends to continue to
defend these actions vigorously and believes, based on currently available
information, that adverse results or settlements, if any, in excess of
insurance coverage or amounts already provided, will not be material to its
financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets increased $1,267,902$2,221,000 for the
year ended December 31, 19961998 and $658,000decreased $3,845,000 for the period from August 15, 1995
throughyear ended
December 31, 1995, which, in both years, substantially offset the
change in certain deferred tax assets.1997. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets,
management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or
all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization
of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable
income during the periods in which those temporary differences become
deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax
liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in
making this assessment. Based primarily upon the level of projections for
future taxable income generated primarily by the reversal of future taxable
temporary differences over the periods which the deferred tax assets are
deductible, management believes it is more likely than not the Company will
realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of the existing
valuation allowance at December 31, 1996.1998. The amount of the deferred tax
assets considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if
estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced.

December 31, 19961998
Many assumptions and judgmental decisions are required to estimate reserves.
Quantities reported are considered reasonable but they are subject to future
revisions, some of which may be substantial, as additional information becomes
available. Such additional knowledge may be gained as the result of reservoir
performance, new geological and geophysical data, additional drilling,
technological advancements, price changes, and other factors.
Regulations published by the Securities and Exchange Commission define
proved reserves as those volumes of crude oil, condensate, and natural gas
liquids and natural gas that geological and engineering data demonstrate with
reasonable certainty are recoverable from known reservoirs under existing
economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves are those volumes
expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and
operating methods. Proved undeveloped reserves are those volumes expected to
be recovered as a result of making additional investment by drilling new wells
on acreage offsetting productive units or recompleting existing wells.
Schedule 3--Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows to Proved
Oil and Gas Reserves
SFAS No. 69 requires calculation of future net cash flows using a ten
percent annual discount factor and year end prices, costs, and statutory tax
rates, except for known future changes such as contracted prices and
legislated tax rates.
The calculated value of proved reserves is not necessarily indicative of
either fair market value or present value of future cash flows because prices,
costs, and governmental policies do not remain static; appropriate discount
rates may vary; and extensive judgment is required to estimate the timing of
production. Other logical assumptions would likely have resulted in
significantly different amounts. Average crude oil prices received for oil and
the average price received by well for natural gas, effective at the end of
each year, were used for this calculation, and were $9.37 per bbl and $2.24
