Southwest Oil & Gas Income Fund X-A, L.P.
(a Delaware limited partnership)
Notes to Financial Statements
1. Organization
Southwest Oil and Gas Income Fund X-A, L.P. was organized under the
laws of the state of Delaware on January 29, 1990, for the purpose of
acquiring producing oil and gas properties and to produce and market
crude oil and natural gas produced from such properties for a term of
50 years, unless terminated at an earlier date as provided for in the
Partnership Agreement. The Partnership sells its oil and gas
production to a variety of purchasers with the prices it receives
being dependent upon the oil and gas economy. Southwest Royalties,
Inc. a wholly owned subsidiary of Clayton Williams Energy, Inc.,
serves as the Managing General Partner and Blue Heel Company, a wholly
owned subsidiary of Southwest Royalties, Inc., acquired the general
partner interest from H.H. Wommack, III. Revenues, costs, and
expenses are allocated as follows:
Limited General
Partners Partners
-------- --------
Interest income on capital 100% -
contributions
Oil and gas sales 90% 10%
All other revenues 90% 10%
Organization and offering 100% -
costs (1)
Syndication costs 100% -
Amortization of organization 100% -
costs
Property acquisition costs 100% -
Gain/loss on property 90% 10%
disposition
Operating and administrative 90% 10%
costs (2)
Depreciation, depletion and
amortization
of oil and as properties 100% -
All other costs 90% 10%
(1) All organization costs in excess of 3% of initial capital
contributions will be paid by the Managing General Partner and
will be treated as a capital contribution. The Partnership paid
the Managing General Partner an amount equal to 3% of initial
capital contributions for such organization costs.
(2) Administrative costs in any year which exceed 2% of capital
contributions shall be paid by the Managing General Partner and
will be treated as a capital contribution.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The interim financial information as of September 30, 2004, and for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, is unaudited.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. However, in the opinion of management, these interim
financial statements include all the necessary adjustments to fairly
present the results of the interim periods and all such adjustments
are of a normal recurring nature. The interim consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Partnership's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.
3. Cumulative effect of change in accounting principle - SFAS No. 143
On January 1, 2003, the Partnership adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations ("SFAS No. 143"). Adoption of SFAS No. 143 is required
for all companies with fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002.
The new standard requires the Partnership to recognize a liability for
the present value of all legal obligations associated with the
retirement of tangible long-lived assets and to capitalize an equal
amount as a cost of the asset and depreciate the additional cost over
the estimated useful life of the asset. On January 1, 2003, the
Partnership recorded additional costs, net of accumulated
depreciation, of approximately $159,604, a long term liability of
approximately $139,208 and a gain of approximately $20,396 for the
cumulative effect on depreciation of the additional costs and
accretion expense on the liability related to expected abandonment
costs of its oil and natural gas producing properties. At September
30, 2004, the asset retirement obligation was $143,019. The increase
in the balance from January 1, 2004 is due to accretion expense of
$8,219, partially offset by the plug and abandonment of wells of
$3,218.

Notes to Financial Statements
4. Change in Control of Managing General Partner
On May 21, 2004, Clayton Williams Energy, Inc. acquired all the
outstanding common stock of Southwest Royalties Inc. through a merger.
Clayton Williams Energy, Inc. paid $57.1 million to holders of
Southwest Royalties, Inc. common stock and common stock warrants
($45.01 per share) and assumed and refinanced approximately
$113.9 million of assumed bank debt at closing. In connection with
the transaction, Blue Heel Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Southwest Royalties, Inc., acquired the general partner interest from
H.H. Wommack, III.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
General
Southwest Oil & Gas Income Fund X-A, L.P. was organized as a Delaware
limited partnership on January 29, 1990. The offering of such limited
partnership interests began on May 11, 1990 as part of a shelf offering
registered under the name Southwest Oil & Gas 1990-91 Income Program.
Minimum capital requirements for the Partnership were met on August 15,
1990, with the offering of limited partnership interests concluding on
November 30, 1990, with total limited partner contributions of $5,242,000.
The Partnership was formed to acquire interests in producing oil and gas
properties, to produce and market crude oil and natural gas produced from
such properties, and to distribute the net proceeds from operations to the
limited and general partners. Net revenues from producing oil and gas
properties will not be reinvested in other revenue producing assets except
to the extent that production facilities and wells are improved or reworked
or where methods are employed to improve or enable more efficient recovery
of oil and gas reserves. The economic life of the Partnership thus depends
on the period over which the Partnership's oil and gas reserves are
economically recoverable.
Increases or decreases in Partnership revenues and, therefore,
distributions to partners will depend primarily on changes in the prices
received for production, changes in volumes of production sold, lease
operating expenses, enhanced recovery projects, offset drilling activities
pursuant to farm-out arrangements, sales of properties, and the depletion
of wells. Since wells deplete over time, production can generally be
expected to decline from year to year.
Well operating costs and general and administrative costs usually decrease
with production declines; however, these costs may not decrease
proportionately. Net income available for distribution to the partners is
therefore expected to fluctuate in later years based on these factors.
Oil and Gas Properties
Oil and gas properties are accounted for at cost under the full-cost
method. Under this method, all productive and nonproductive costs incurred
in connection with the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and
gas reserves are capitalized. Gain or loss on the sale of oil and gas
properties is not recognized unless significant oil and gas reserves are
sold.
Should the net capitalized costs exceed the estimated present value of oil
and gas reserves, discounted at 10%, such excess costs would be charged to
current expense. As of September 30, 2004, the net capitalized costs did
not exceed the estimated present value of oil and gas reserves.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Partnership follows the full cost method of accounting for its oil and
gas properties. The full cost method subjects companies to quarterly
calculations of a "ceiling", or limitation on the amount of properties that
can be capitalized on the balance sheet. If the Partnership's capitalized
costs are in excess of the calculated ceiling, the excess must be written
off as an expense.
The Partnership's discounted present value of its proved oil and natural
gas reserves is a major component of the ceiling calculation, and
represents the component that requires the most subjective judgments.
Estimates of reserves are forecasts based on engineering data, projected
future rates of production and the timing of future expenditures. The
process of estimating oil and natural gas reserves requires substantial
judgment, resulting in imprecise determinations, particularly for new
discoveries. Different reserve engineers may make different estimates of
reserve quantities based on the same data. The Partnership's reserve
estimates are prepared by outside consultants. Quarterly reserve estimates
are prepared by the Managing General Partner's internal staff of engineers.
The passage of time provides more qualitative information regarding
estimates of reserves, and revisions are made to prior estimates to reflect
updated information. However, there can be no assurance that more
significant revisions will not be necessary in the future. If future
significant revisions are necessary that reduce previously estimated
reserve quantities, it could result in a full cost property writedown. In
addition to the impact of these estimates of proved reserves on calculation
of the ceiling, estimates of proved reserves are also a significant
component of the calculation of DD&A.
While the quantities of proved reserves require substantial judgment, the
associated prices of oil and natural gas reserves that are included in the
discounted present value of the reserves do not require judgment. The
ceiling calculation dictates that prices and costs in effect as of the last
day of the period are generally held constant indefinitely. Because the
ceiling calculation dictates that prices in effect as of the last day of
the applicable quarter are held constant indefinitely, the resulting value
is not indicative of the true fair value of the reserves. Oil and natural
gas prices have historically been cyclical and, on any particular day at
the end of a quarter, can be either substantially higher or lower than the
Partnership's long-term price forecast that is a barometer for true fair
value.

Revenues
The Partnership's oil and gas revenues increased to $116,842 from $83,361
for the quarters ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, an
increase of 40%. The principal factors affecting the comparison of the
quarters ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 are as follows:
1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
increased during the quarter ended September 30, 2004 as compared to
the quarter ended September 30, 2003 by 47%, or $12.77 per barrel,
resulting in an increase of approximately $30,700 in revenues. Oil
sales represented 82% of total oil and gas sales during the quarter
ended September 30, 2004 as compared to 82% during the quarter ended
September 30, 2003.
The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership
increased during the same period by 19%, or $.87 per mcf, resulting in
an increase of approximately $3,300 in revenues.
The total increase in revenues due to the change in prices received
from oil and gas production is approximately $34,000. The market price
for oil and gas has been extremely volatile over the past decade and
management expects a certain amount of volatility to continue in the
foreseeable future.
2. Oil production decreased approximately 94 barrels or 4% during the
quarter ended September 30, 2004 as compared to the quarter ended
September 30, 2003, resulting in a decrease of approximately $2,600 in
revenues.
Gas production increased approximately 445 mcf or 13% during the same
period, resulting in an increase of approximately $2,100 in revenues.
The net total decrease in revenues due to the change in production is
approximately $500. The increase in gas volumes is due to the
reactivation of a gas well.
Costs and Expenses
Total costs and expenses increased to $94,898 from $76,453 for the quarters
ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, an increase of 24%. The
increase is the result of higher lease operating costs and accretion
expense, partially offset by a decrease in depletion expense and general
and administrative expense.
1. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 44% higher, or
approximately $20,300 more during the quarter ended September 30, 2004 as
compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2003. The increase in lease
operating costs are due to surface repairs and salt water disposal costs on
a producing property.
2. General and administrative costs consist of independent accounting and
engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General
Partner personnel costs. General and administrative costs decreased 5%
or approximately $1,200 during the quarter ended September 30, 2004 as
compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2003.
3. Depletion expense decreased to $2,263 for the quarter ended September
30, 2004 from $3,000 for the same period in 2003. This represents a
decrease of 23%. The contributing factor to the decrease in depletion
expense is in relation to the BOE depletion rate for the quarter ended
September 30, 2004, which was $.75 applied to 3,030 BOE as compared to
$.98 applied to 3,050 BOE for the same period in 2003. The lower
depreciation rate in 2004 is due to the upward revision in reserve
estimates resulting from higher oil and gas prices.
4. Accretion expense increased to $2,699 for the quarter ended September
30, 2004 from $2,612 for the same period in 2003. This represents an
increase of 3%.
B. General Comparison of the Nine-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2004

The Partnership's oil and gas revenues increased to $307,271 from $274,234
for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, an
increase of 12%. The principal factors affecting the comparison of the
nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 are as follows:
1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared
to the nine months ended September 30, 2003 by 25%, or $7.15 per
barrel, resulting in an increase of approximately $50,600 in revenues.
Oil sales represented 81% of total oil and gas sales during the nine
months ended September 30, 2004 and 81% during the nine months ended
September 30, 2003.
The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership
increased during the same period by 9%, or $.45 per mcf, resulting in
an increase of approximately $4,500 in revenues.
The total increase in revenues due to the change in prices received
from oil and gas production is approximately $55,100. The market price
for oil and gas has been extremely volatile over the past decade and
management expects a certain amount of volatility to continue in the
foreseeable future.
2. Oil production decreased approximately 824 barrels or 10% during the
nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2003, resulting in a decrease of approximately
$23,200 in revenues.
Gas production increased approximately 215 mcf or 2% during the same
period, resulting in an increase of approximately $1,100 in revenues.
The net total decrease in revenues due to the change in production is
approximately $22,100.
Costs and Expenses
Total costs and expenses increased to $307,271 from $247,228 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, an increase of 12%.
The increase is the result of higher lease operating costs and accretion
expense, partially offset by a decrease in depletion expense and general
and administrative expense.
1. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 13% higher, or
approximately $19,500 more during the nine months ended September 30,
2004 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The
increase in lease operating costs are due to surface repairs and salt
water disposal costs on a producing property.
2. General and administrative costs consist of independent accounting and
engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General
Partner personnel costs. General and administrative costs decreased 3%
or approximately $2,200 during the nine months ended September 30, 2004
as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2003.
3. Depletion expense increased to $6,263 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2004 from $9,000 for the same period in 2003. This
represents a decrease of 30%. The contributing factor to the decrease
in depletion expense is in relation to the BOE depletion rate for the
nine months ended September 30, 2004, which was $.72 applied to 8,745
BOE as compared to $.94 applied to 9,533 BOE for the same period in
2003. The lower depreciation rate in 2004 is due to the upward
revision in reserve estimates resulting from higher oil and gas prices.
4. Accretion expense increased to $8,219 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2004 from $8,181 for the same period in 2003. This
represents an increase of less than 1%.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The primary source of cash is from operations, the receipt of income from
interests in oil and gas properties. The Partnership knows of no material
change, nor does it anticipate any such change.
Cash flows provided by operating activities were approximately $51,900 in
the nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to approximately
$3,700 in the nine months ended September 30, 2003.
Cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities were approximately
$3,800 in the nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to
approximately $(3,200) in the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The
principle source of the 2004 cash flow from investing activities was the
sale of equipment.
Cash flows used in financing activities were approximately $24,800 in the
nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $5 in the
nine months ended September 30, 2003.
Total distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 were
$25,000 of which $22,500 was distributed to the limited partners and $2,500
to the general partners. The per unit distribution to limited partners
during the nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $2.15. There were no
distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 2003.
Cumulative cash distributions of $2,853,638 have been made to the partners.
As of September 30, 2004, $2,625,889 or $250.47 per limited partner unit
has been distributed to the limited partners, representing a 50% return of
the capital contributed.
As of September 30, 2004, the Partnership had approximately $82,000 in
working capital. The Managing General Partner knows of no unusual
contractual commitments. The partnership held many long-lived properties
at inception, however due to the restrictions on property development
imposed by the partnership agreement, the Partnership cannot develop its
non-producing properties. Without continued development, the producing
reserves continue to deplete. Accordingly, as the Partnership's properties
have matured and depleted, the net cash flows from operations for the
partnership has steadily declined, except in periods of substantially
increased commodity pricing. Maintenance of properties and administrative
expenses for the Partnership are increasing relative to production. As the
properties continue to deplete, maintenance of properties and
administrative costs as a percentage of production are expected to continue
to increase.
Managing General Partner
On May 21, 2004, Clayton Williams Energy, Inc. acquired all the outstanding
common stock of Southwest Royalties Inc. through a merger. Clayton
Williams Energy, Inc. paid $57.1 million to holders of Southwest Royalties,
Inc. common stock and common stock warrants ($45.01 per share) and assumed
and refinanced approximately $113.9 million of assumed bank debt at
closing. In connection with the transaction, Blue Heel Company, a wholly
owned subsidiary of Southwest Royalties, Inc., acquired the general partner
interest from H.H. Wommack, III.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Partnership is not a party to any derivative or embedded derivative
instruments.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the nine months ended September 30, 2004, L. Paul Latham, President
and Chief Executive Officer of the Managing General Partner, and Mel G.
Riggs, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Managing General
Partner, evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership's disclosure
controls and procedures. Based on their evaluation, they believe that:
The disclosure controls and procedures of the Partnership were
effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the
Partnership in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act
was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms; and
The disclosure controls and procedures of the Partnership were
effective in ensuring that material information required to be
disclosed by the Partnership in the report it filed or submitted under
the Exchange Act was accumulated and communicated to the Managing
General Partner's management, including its Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has not been any change in the Partnership's internal control over
financial reporting that occurred during the nine months ended September
30, 2004 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.
