Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations General Southwest Royalties Institutional Income Fund X-C, L.P. was organized as a Delaware limited partnership on September 20, 1991. The offering of such limited partnership interests began October 1, 1991 as part of a shelf offering registered under the name Southwest Royalties Institutional 1990- 91 Income Program. Minimum capital requirements for the Partnership were met on January 28, 1992, with the offering of limited partnership interests concluding April 30, 1992, with 340 limited partners purchasing 5,983 units for $2,991,500. The Partnership was formed to acquire royalty and net profits 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. 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 farmout 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. Based on current conditions, management does not anticipate performing workovers during 1998 to enhance production. The Partnership could possibly experience a normal decline in 1998. 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 involved. The Partnership's policy for depreciation, depletion and amortization of oil and gas properties is computed under the units of revenue method. Under the units of revenue method, depreciation, depletion and amortization is computed on the basis of current gross revenues from production in relation to future gross revenues, based on current prices, from estimated production of proved oil and gas reserves. 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, 1998, the net capitalized costs did not exceed the estimated present value of oil and gas reserves. A continuation of the oil price environment experienced during the first three quarters of 1998 will have an adverse affect on the Company's revenues and operating cash flow. Also, further declines in oil prices could result in additional decreases in the carrying value of the Company's oil and gas properties. Results of Operations A. General Comparison of the Quarters Ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 The following table provides certain information regarding performance factors for the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and 1997: Three Months Ended Percentage September 30, Increase 1998 1997 (Decrease) ---- ---- --------- Average price per barrel of oil $ 10.42 16.87 (38%) Average price per mcf of gas $ 1.44 2.14 (33%) Oil production in barrels 9,400 10,900 (14%) Gas production in mcf 14,700 18,300 (20%) Income (loss) from net profits interests $(11,422) 74,896 (115%) Partnership distributions $ 9,000 115,000 (92%) Limited partner distributions $ 8,100 103,500 (92%) Per unit distribution to limited partners $ 1.35 17.30 (92%) Number of limited partner units 5,983 5,983 Revenues The Partnership's income from net profits interests decreased to $(11,442) from $74,896 for the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, a decrease of 115%. The principal factors affecting the comparison of the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 are as follows: 1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership decreased during the quarter ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1997 by 38%, or $6.45 per barrel, resulting in a decrease of approximately $70,300 in income from net profits interests. Oil sales represented 82% of total oil and gas sales during the quarter ended September 30, 1998 and 1997. The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership decreased during the same period by 33%, or $.70 per mcf, resulting in a decrease of approximately $12,800 in income from net profits interests. The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the change in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately $83,100. 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 1,500 barrels or 14% during the quarter ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1997, resulting in a decrease of approximately $15,600 in income from net profits interests. Gas production decreased approximately 3,600 mcf or 20% during the same period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $5,200 in income from net profits interests. The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the change in production is approximately $20,800. Decrease is due to natural decline. 3. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 12% lower, or approximately $17,600 less during the quarter ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1997. Costs and Expenses Total costs and expenses decreased to $23,605 from $29,097 for the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, a decrease of 19%. The decrease is the result of lower depletion expense, partially offset by an increase in general and administrative expense. 1. General and administrative costs consists of independent accounting and engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General Partner personnel costs. General and administrative costs increased 28% or approximately $2,500 during the quarter ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1997. The increase in general and administrative costs are due largely to higher accounting fees. The 10-Q's are now required to be reviewed based on new accounting pronouncements. 2. Depletion expense decreased to $12,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 from $20,000 for the same period in 1997. This represents a decrease of 40%. Depletion is calculated using the units of revenue method of amortization based on a percentage of current period gross revenues to total future gross oil and gas revenues, as estimated by the Partnership's independent petroleum consultants. Contributing factors to the decline in depletion expense between the comparative periods were the decrease in the price of oil and thus the decline in gross oil and gas revenues. B. General Comparison of the Nine Month Periods Ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 The following table provides certain information regarding performance factors for the nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997: Nine Months Ended Percentage September 30, Increase 1998 1997 (Decrease) ---- ---- --------- Average price per barrel of oil $ 11.35 18.57 (39%) Average price per mcf of gas $ 1.68 2.31 (27%) Oil production in barrels 31,300 33,700 (7%) Gas production in mcf 48,600 55,500 (12%) Income from net profits interests $ 38,792 305,289 (87%) Partnership distributions $ 99,000 471,500 (79%) Limited partner distributions $ 89,100 424,350 (79%) Per unit distribution to limited partners $ 14.89 70.93 (79%) Number of limited partner units 5,983 5,983 Revenues The Partnership's income from net profits interests decreased to $38,792 from $305,289 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, a decrease of 87%. The principal factors affecting the comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 are as follows: 1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership decreased during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1997 by 39%, or $7.22 per barrel, resulting in a decrease of approximately $243,300 in income from net profits interests. Oil sales represented 81% of total oil and gas sales during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to 83% during the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership decreased during the same period by 27%, or $.63 per mcf, resulting in a decrease of approximately $35,000 in income from net profits interests. The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the change in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately $278,300. 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 2,400 barrels or 7% during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1997, resulting in a decrease of approximately $27,200 in income from net profits interests. Gas production decreased approximately 6,900 mcf or 12% during the same period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $11,600 in income from net profits interests. The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the change in production is approximately $38,800. 3. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 11% lower, or approximately $50,300 less during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1997. Costs and Expenses Total costs and expenses increased to $113,818 from $100,307 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively, an increase of 13%. The increase is the result of higher general and administrative expense and depletion expense. 1. General and administrative costs consists of independent accounting and engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General Partner personnel costs. General and administrative costs increased 19% or approximately $6,500 during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The increase in general and administrative costs are due largely to higher accounting fees. The 10-Q's are now required to be reviewed based on new accounting pronouncements. 2. Depletion expense increased to $73,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 from $66,000 for the same period in 1997. This represents an increase of 11%. Depletion is calculated using the units of revenue method of amortization based on a percentage of current period gross revenues to total future gross oil and gas revenues, as estimated by the Partnership's independent petroleum consultants. 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 $84,100 in the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to approximately $317,300 in the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The primary source of the 1998 cash flow from operating activities was profitable operations. There were no cash flows provided by investing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997. Cash flows used in financing activities were approximately $98,900 in the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to approximately $471,500 in the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The only use in financing activities was the distributions to partners. Total distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 were $99,000 of which $89,100 was distributed to the limited partners and $9,900 to the general partners. The per unit distribution to limited partners during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was $14.89. Total distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 were $471,500 of which $424,350 was distributed to the limited partners and $47,150 to the general partners. The per unit distribution to limited partners during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 was $70.93. The sources for the 1998 distributions of $99,000 were oil and gas operations of approximately $84,100, with the balance from available cash on hand at the beginning o the period. The source for the 1997 distributions of $471,500 was oil and gas operations of approximately $317,300, with the balance from available cash on hand at the beginning of the period. Since inception of the Partnership, cumulative monthly cash distributions of $2,556,468 have been made to the partners. As of September 30, 1998, $2,312,678 or $386.54 per limited partner unit has been distributed to the limited partners, representing a 77% return of the capital contributed. As of September 30, 1998, the Partnership had approximately $25,600 in working capital. The Managing General Partner knows of no unusual contractual commitments and believes the revenues generated from operations are adequate to meet the needs of the Partnership. Information Systems for the Year 2000 The Partnership relies on the Managing General Partner for their data processing requirements. This includes use of a program designed and implemented by Midland Southwest Software, the Managing General Partner's software subsidiary. Midland Southwest Software currently has a year 2000 plan in effect. They have surveyed existing programs and hardware and estimate a compliance date of early 1999. Determination of the total cost in connection with the year 2000 compliance issue is difficult to determine due to the fact that they are in the process of developing their new 1998 version of marketed oil and gas software, which has, from inception, included year 2000 compliance. Third party software programs utilized by the Managing General Partner are either in compliance or are not affected by the year 2000, with the exception of the payroll service, which is currently modifying its system to accurately handle the Year 2000 issue. The Managing General Partner has not completed its evaluation of its vendors or suppliers systems to determine the effect, if any, the non- compliance of such systems would have on the operations of the Managing General Partner. Plans are under way to perform an audit in late 1998 or early 1999 to determine the effect of non-compliance of its vendors and suppliers on the Managing General Partner and thus formulate a contingency plan. A potential source of risk includes, but is not limited to, the inability of principal purchasers and suppliers to be year 2000 compliant, which could have a material effect on the Managing General Partner's production, cash flow and overall financial condition, notwithstanding the Managing General Partner's actions to prepare its own information systems. The Managing General Partner currently does not have a contingency plan in place to cover any unforeseen problems encountered that relate to the year 2000, but intends to produce one before the end of the fiscal year.
