I-3 ENEX OIL & GAS INCOME PROGRAM III - SERIES 8, 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 Effective February 1, 1996, the Company sold its interest in the Credo acquisition for $22,575. The Company recognized a gain of $1,409 on the sale. Effective April 1, 1996, the Company sold its interest in the Kidd well in the Enexco acquisition for $7,680. The Company recognized a $7,100 gain from the sale. Effective June 1, 1996, the Company sold its interest in the Harper well in the RIC acquisition for $6,674. The Company recognized a gain of $5,123 from the sale. 3. On August 9, 1996, the Company's General Partner submitted preliminary proxy material to the Securities Exchange Commission with respect to a proposed consolidation of the Company with 33 other managed limited partnerships. The terms and conditions of the proposed consolidation are set forth in such preliminary proxy material. I-4 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation. Second Quarter 1995 Compared to Second Quarter 1996 Oil and gas sales for the second quarter decreased to $54,972 in 1996 from $74,719 in 1995. This represents a decrease of $19,747 (26%). Oil sales decreased by $3,270 (7%). A 4% decrease in production caused sales to decrease by $1,830. A 3% decrease in the average oil sales price reduced sales by an additional $1,440. Gas sales decreased by $7,317 (48%). A 62% decrease in gas production reduced sales by $9,507. This decrease was partially offset by a 38% increase in the average gas sales price. The decrease in oil production was primarily a result of the sale of the Credo acquisition in the first quarter of 1996 and the sale of the Kidd well in the Enexco acquisition in the second quarter of 1996, partially offset by production from the Corkscrew acquisition which had been shut-in during the second quarter of 1995 for rod repairs. The decrease in gas production was primarily the result of the sale of the Credo acquisition in the first quarter of 1996 and the sale of the Kidd well in the Enexco acquisition in the second quarter of 1996 coupled with natural production declines. The lower average oil sales price was primarily the result of relatively higher production from the Corkscrew acquisition which has a relatively lower oil sales price, partially offset by higher prices in the overall market for the sale of oil. The higher average gas sales price was primarily the result of relatively higher production from properties with a higher gas sales price, coupled with higher prices in the overall market for the sale of gas. Lease operating expenses decreased to $33,475 in the second quarter of 1996 from $47,860 in the second quarter of 1995. The decrease of $14,385 (30%) is primarily due to the changes in production, noted above. Depreciation and depletion expense decreased to $12,308 in the second quarter of 1996 from $41,499 in the second quarter of 1995. This represents a decrease of $29,191 (70%). The changes in production, noted above, reduced depreciation and depletion expense by $9,550. A 61% decrease in the depletion rate reduced depreciation and depletion expense by an additional $19,641. The rate decrease is primarily due to the lower property basis resulting from the recognition of an impairment of property for $291,307 in the first quarter of 1996. Effective April 1, 1996, the Company sold its interest in the Kidd well in the Enexco acquisition for $7,680. The Company recognized a $7,100 gain from the sale. Effective June 1, 1996, the Company sold its interest in the Harper well in the RIC acquisition for $6,674. The Company recognized a gain of $5,123 from the sale. General and administrative expenses decreased to $8,851 in the second quarter of 1996 from $27,813 in the second quarter of 1995. This decrease of $18,962 is primarily due to $11,938 of legal costs incurred in the second quarter of 1995 for a property interest dispute on the Barnes Estate acquisition, coupled with less staff time being required to manage the Company's operations in 1996. I-5 First Six Months in 1995 Compared to First Six Months in 1996 Oil and gas sales for the first six months decreased to $150,737 in 1996 from $160,527 in 1995. This represents a decrease of $9,790 (6%). Oil sales decreased by $1,585 (2%). A 5% decrease in oil production reduced sales by $5,513. This decrease was partially offset by a 4% increase in the average oil sales price. Gas sales decreased by $8,204 (14%). A 19% decrease in gas production reduced sales by $11,218. This decrease was partially offset by a 6% increase in the average gas sales price. The decrease in oil production was primarily a result of the sale of the Credo acquisition in the first quarter of 1996 and the sale of the Kidd well in the Enexco acquisition in the second quarter of 1996, partially offset by production from the Corkscrew acquisition which had been shut-in during the second quarter of 1995 for rod repairs. The decrease in gas production was primarily the result of the sale of the Credo acquisition in the first quarter of 1996 and the sale of the Kidd well in the Enexco acquisition in the second quarter of 1996 coupled with natural production declines. The changes in the average sales prices correspond with changes in the overall market for the sale of oil and gas. Lease operating expenses decreased to $78,075 in the first six months of 1996 from $88,406 in the first six months of 1995. The decrease of $10,331 (12%) is primarily due to the changes in production, noted above. Depreciation and depletion expense decreased to $31,614 in the first six months of 1996 from $86,219 in the first six months of 1995. This represents a decrease of $54,605 (63%). A 59% decrease in the depletion rate reduced depreciation and depletion expense by $45,179. The changes in production, noted above, reduced depreciation and depletion expense by an additional $9,426. The rate decrease is primarily due to the lower property basis resulting from the recognition of an impairment of property for $291,307 in the first quarter of 1996. Effective February 1, 1996, the Company sold its interest in the Credo acquisition for $22,575. The Company recognized a gain of $1,409 on the sale. Effective April 1, 1996, the Company sold its interest in the Kidd well in the Enexco acquisition for $7,680. The Company recognized a $7,100 gain from the sale. Effective June 1, 1996, the Company sold its interest in the Harper well in the RIC acquisition for $6,674. The Company recognized a gain of $5,123 from the sale. The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long- Lived Assets to be Disposed Of," which requires certain assets to be reviewed for impairment whenever circumstances indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable. In the first quarter of 1996, the Company recognized a non-cash impairment provision of $291,307 for certain oil and gas properties due to market indications that the carrying amounts were not fully recoverable. General and administrative expenses decreased to $19,011 in 1996 to $39,158 in 1995. This decrease of $20,147 (51%) is primarily due to $11,938 of legal costs incurred in the second quarter of 1995 for a property interest dispute on the Barnes Estate acquisition coupled with less staff time being required to manage the Company's operations in 1996. I-6 CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY The Company's cash flow is a direct result of the amount of net proceeds realized from the sale of oil and gas production after the repayment of its debt obligations. 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 remaining available cash flow to the Company's partners. The Company discontinued the payment of distributions during 1995. Future distributions are dependent upon, among other things, an increase in prices received for oil and gas. The Company will continue to recover its reserves and distribute to the limited partners the net proceeds realized form the sale of oil and gas production. Distribution amounts are subject to change if net revenues are greater or less than expected. Future periodic distributions will be made once sufficient net revenues are accumulated. On August 9, 1996, the Company's General Partner submitted preliminary proxy material to the Securities Exchange Commission with respect to a proposed consolidation of the Company with 33 other managed limited partnerships. The terms and conditions of the proposed consolidation are set forth in such preliminary proxy material. As of June 30, 1996, the Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures. The Company does not intend to engage in any significant developmental drilling activity. I-7 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings. None Item 2. Changes in Securities. None Item 3.
