Note 4 - Change in Accounting Principle - FSP FAS 19-1 |
|
On April 4, 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board posted FSP FAS 19-1,Accounting for Suspended Well Costs, to be effective for reporting periods beginning after April 4, 2005. We have adopted FSP FAS 19-1 effective as of July 1, 2005. The guidance set forth in the FSP requires that we evaluate all existing capitalized exploratory well costs and disclose the extent to which any such capitalized costs have become impaired and are expensed or reclassified during a fiscal period. We performed an evaluation of our capitalized costs and determined that no previously capitalized exploratory well costs pending the determination of proved reserves were required to be expensed or reclassified during the third quarter of 2005 or 2004. We did not make any additions to capitalized exploratory well costs pending a determination of proved reserves during the third quarter of 2005 or 2004. We did not charge any previously capitalized exploratory well costs to expense upon adoption of FSP FAS 19-1. |

Item 2. Management's Discussion And Analysis Of Financial |
Condition And Results Of Operations |
|
Results of Operations |
|
For the first nine months of 2005, we had a net profit of $343,822, a $2,040,246 or 85.6% decrease compared to the net profit of $2,384,068 achieved during the first nine months of 2004. We can attribute this to a decrease in oil and natural gas production, increased turnkey drilling costs and increased lease operating costs. We achieved a net profit of $211,584 for the third quarter of 2005, a decrease of $491,277 or 69.9%, from the 2004 third quarter net profit of $702,861. Total revenues for the nine month period in 2005 were $18,062,166, an increase of $331,460 or 1.9% from the total revenues of $17,730,706 during the period in 2004. Total revenues for the third quarter of 2005 increased $624,787 or 10.7% from the third quarter 2004 revenues. These increases were mainly due to higher turnkey drilling revenues due to increased sales and drilling during the period in 2005. |
|
In the first nine months of 2005, revenues from oil and gas production decreased by $997,193 or 11.8% to $7,465,681 from the 2004 revenues of $8,462,874, due to a decrease in oil and natural gas production. This decrease in production was a result of several factors including the natural decline on our oil and natural gas wells and the lack of new production because of a delay in starting our drilling projects due to limited drilling rig availability in California. In the third quarter 2005, oil and gas revenue increased $415,140 or 17.4% from the third quarter in 2004. The net sales volume of natural gas for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, was approximately 1,046,123 Mcf with an average price of $6.62 per Mcf, versus 1,481,820 Mcf with an average price of $5.30 per Mcf for the first nine months in 2004. This represents a decrease in net sales volume of 435,697 Mcf or 29.4%. For the third quarter 2005, the average price increased $2.50 per Mcf and the net sales volume of natural gas decreased 71 ,820 Mcf, from 400,067 Mcf in the period in 2004 to 328,247 Mcf in 2005. The net sales volume for oil and condensate (natural gas liquids) production was 10,687 barrels with an average price of $49.82 per barrel for the first nine months of 2005, compared to 16,245 barrels at an average price of $34.56 per barrel for the nine months in 2004. This represents a decrease in net sales volume of 5,558 barrels, or 34.2%. For the third quarter in 2005, the average price for oil and condensate increased $17.80 per barrel and production decreased 79 barrels from the same quarter in 2004. |
|
Oil and natural gas lease operating expenses increased by $342,470 or 15.3%, to $2,582,664 for the first nine months of 2005, from $2,240,194 for the period in 2004. For the third quarter 2005, lease operating expenses increased $77,414 or 11.0% over the same period in 2004. The increases were mainly due to higher workover and perforating costs incurred during the period in 2005, in order to increase production on new and existing wells. |
|
For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, turnkey drilling revenues increased $1,419,456 or 17.3% to $9,612,107 from $8,192,651 in the same period in 2004. We also had a $2,324,667 or 50.9% increase in turnkey drilling and development costs to $6,891,449 in 2005 from $4,566,782 in 2004. Third quarter turnkey drilling revenues increased $184,827 (5.9%) and costs increased $921,660 (64.1%) over the quarter in 2004. The increases in turnkey drilling |
|
-8- |
|
revenues and costs were mainly due to an increase in the number of wells drilled in 2005 when compared to 2004. We drilled thirteen wells (nine developmental wells and four exploratory wells) during the first nine months in 2005 versus eight wells (four developmental and four exploratory wells) during the period in 2004. Turnkey drilling cost increases were also due to higher drilling rig costs as a result of rising drilling rig day rates. |
|
We periodically review our proved properties for impairment on a field-by-field basis and charge impairments of value to expense. Impairment losses of $8,182 were recorded in the first nine months of 2005. No impairments were recorded during the period in 2004. |
|
The aggregate of supervisory fees and other income was $984,378 for nine months ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of $90,803 (8.4%) from $1,075,181 during the period in 2004. This decrease was due to lower cost recovery fees received on facilities due to the decrease in natural gas production. |
|
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense increased to $2,846,820 from $2,547,864, an increase of $298,956 (11.7%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, as compared to the same period in 2004. During the third quarter these expenses increased $143,234 or 15.0% over the quarter in 2004. The depletion rate is calculated using production as a percentage of reserves. This increase in depletion expense was mainly due to an increase in the depletion rate because of higher rates of production when compared to total reserves and in the number of oil and gas assets that we own. |
|
General and administrative expenses increased by $465,167 or 15.3%, from $3,040,927 for the nine months ended September 30, 2004, to $3,506,094 for the period in 2005. Third quarter 2005 expenses were $176,515 higher than in 2004. This increase was due to increased employee salaries, travel and insurance, mainly due to increased staffing. Legal and accounting expense decreased to $218,409 for the period, compared to $572,790 for period in 2004, a $354,381 or 61.9% decrease, mainly due to a decrease in litigation fees. For the quarter, legal and accounting expenses decreased $209,415 from the previous year. Marketing expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, increased $41,801, or 3.7%, to $1,177,985, compared to $1,136,184 for the period in 2004. For the third quarter in 2005, marketing expenses increased $27,770 over the quarter in 2004. Marketing expense varies from period to period according to the number of marketing events attended by personnel and their associated costs. |
|
Interest expense increased to $313,538 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, from $213,266 for the same period in 2004, a $100,272, or 47.0% increase. Interest expense also increased $54,006 for the third quarter in 2005 when compared to the period in 2004. This increase was mainly due to the higher interest rate on our commercial bank credit line, which increased from 5.5% at September 30, 2004 to 7.25% at September 30, 2005. |
|
For the first nine months of 2005 our income tax expense decreased to $173,203 from $1,028,631 during the period in 2004, an $855,428 decrease, mainly due to the decrease in our net income. |

|
We have a revolving line of credit under a loan agreement with Guaranty Bank, FSB, which is secured by all of our oil and gas properties. At September 30, 2005, we had outstanding indebtedness of $6,200,000, compared to $5,472,500 at December 31, 2004. Unused available credit from this revolving line of credit totaled approximately $1,481,000 at September 30, 2005. Our loan from Guaranty Bank, FSB, secured by our non-oil and gas real estate assets, had outstanding indebtedness of approximately $342,485 on September 30, 2005 compared to $575,086 at December 31, 2004. |
|
At September 30, 2005, our accounts receivable totaled $4,176,572 compared to $3,903,941 at December 31, 2004, a $272,631 (7.0%) increase, primarily due to an increase in oil and gas receivables for the period. At September 30, 2005, our accounts payable and accrued expenses totaled $11,341,278, an increase of $1,713,212 or 17.8% from the accounts payable at December 31, 2004, of $9,628,066, mainly due to our increased drilling during the period in 2005. |
|
We ordinarily fund our operations and cash needs from cash flows generated from operations. We believe that we have sufficient liquidity for the remainder of 2005 and do not foresee any liquidity demands that cannot be met from cash flow from operations. |
|
Operating Activities.For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, cash provided by operating activities totaled $4,667,141 compared to $5,948,276 for the same period in 2004, a $1,281,135 or 21.5% decrease. This decrease in cash provided was due to the decrease in oil and gas sales and the reduction in deferred revenues from turnkey drilling as we applied previously deferred revenues to pay for current drilling and development activity. |
|
Investing Activities.Net cash used by investing activities, primarily in capital acquisitions of oil and gas properties, amounted to $9,602,390 for the period in 2005, compared to $5,301,607 used by investing activities for the same period in 2004, a $4,300,783 or 81.1% increase in cash used. This increase was primarily due to thirteen wells being drilled during the period in 2005 while eight wells were drilled during the period in 2004. |
|
Financing Activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005 cash provided by financing activities was $343,738 compared to $1,312,172 provided by financing activities for the same period in 2004, a $968,434 or 73.8% decrease in cash provided. This decrease was primarily due to our decreasing the outstanding debt on our commercial bank loans during the period in 2005 when compared to 2004. |

Change in Accounting Principle |
|
Effective July 1, 2005, we adopted FSP FAS 19-1,Accounting for Suspended Well Costs. This accounting principle requires us to evaluate and disclose changes in our capitalized costs of exploratory wells from period to period, as capitalized exploratory well costs are reclassified when proved reserves are established or expenses for unsuccessful projects.See Note 4 to our unaudited financial statements, page 6. |

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
|
Our major market risk exposure relates to pricing of oil and gas production. The prices we receive for oil and gas are closely related to worldwide market prices for crude oil and local spot prices paid for natural gas production. Prices have been volatile for the last few years, and we expect that volatility to continue. Monthly average natural gas prices ranged from a low of $6.03 per mcf to a high of $10.01 per mcf for the first nine months of 2005. We have not entered into any hedging or derivative agreements to limit our exposure to changes in oil and gas prices or interest rates. |

|
Item 4. Controls and Procedures |
|
As of September 30, 2005, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our management, including the CEO and CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2005. |
|
No significant changes occurred in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2005. |
