I-3 ENEX OIL & GAS INCOME PROGRAM III - SERIES 3, L.P. NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. The interim financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods. 2. A cash distribution was made to the limited partners of the Company in the amount of $14,593, representing net revenues from the sale of oil and gas produced from properties owned by the Company. This distribution was made on January 31, 1996. I-4 Item 2Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation. First Quarter 1996 Compared to First Quarter 1995 Oil and gas sales for the first quarter increased from $74,932 in 1995 to $89,912 in 1996. This represents an increase of $14,980 (20%). Oil sales increased $10,434 or 16%. A 33% increase in average oil prices increased sales by $19,098. This increase was partially offset by a 13% decrease in oil production. Gas sales increased by $4,546 or 53%. A 14% increase in average gas prices increased sales by $1,617. A 34% increase in gas production increased sales by an additional $2,929. The decrease in oil production was primarily the result of natural production declines. The increase in gas production was primarily the result of enhanced production improvements on the Concord acquisition. The changes in average prices correspond with changes in the overall market for the sale of oil and gas. Lease operating expenses decreased from $25,535 in the first quarter of 1995 to $18,420 in the first quarter of 1996. The decrease of $7,115 (28%) is primarily due to workover costs incurred on the Concord acquisition in 1995. Depreciation and depletion expense decreased from $33,442 in the first quarter of 1995 to $25,500 in the first quarter of 1996. This represents a decrease of $7,942 (24%). A 19% decrease in the depletion rate reduced depreciation and depletion expense by $5,904. The changes in production, noted above, reduced depreciation and depletion expense by an additional $2,038. The decrease in the depletion rate was primarily the result of upward revisions of the oil and gas reserves at December 31, 1995. General and administrative expenses decreased from $11,498 in 1995 to $10,506 in 1996. This decrease of $992 is primarily due to less staff time being required to manage the Company's operations. CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY The Company's cash flow from operations is a direct result of the amount of net proceeds realized from the sale of oil and gas production. Accordingly, the changes in cash flow from 1995 to 1996 are primarily due to the changes in oil and gas sales described above. It is the general partner's intention to distribute substantially all of the Company's available cash flow to the Company's partners. The Company will continue to recover its reserves and distribute to the limited partners the net proceeds realized from the sale of oil and gas production after the payment of its debt obligations. Distribution amounts are subject to change if net revenues are greater or less than expected. Nonetheless, the general partner believes the Company will continue to have sufficient cash flow to fund operations and to maintain a regular pattern of distributions. As of March 31, 1996, the Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures. The Company does not intend to engage in any significant developmental drilling activity. I-5 PART II.
