NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (1) General Information - The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Partnership and are unaudited except for the balance sheet at December 31, 1995 which has been taken from the audited financial statements at that date. The financial statements reflect adjustments, all of which were of a normal recurring nature, which are, in the opinion of the managing general partner necessary for a fair presentation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The Partnership believes adequate disclosure is provided by the information presented. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes included in the latest Form 10-K. (2) Organization and Terms of Partnership Agreement - Swift Energy Income Partners 1990-C, Ltd., a Texas limited partnership (the Partnership), was formed on September 30, 1990, for the purpose of purchasing and operating producing oil and gas properties within the continental United States. Swift Energy Company ("Swift"), a Texas corporation, and VJM Corporation ("VJM"), a California corporation, serve as Managing General Partner and Special General Partner of the Partnership, respectively. The general partners are required to contribute up to 1/99th of limited partner net contributions. The 539 limited partners made total capital contributions of $5,695,200. Property acquisition costs and the management fee are borne 99 percent by the limited partners and one percent by the general partners. Organization and syndication costs were borne solely by the limited partners. Generally, all continuing costs (including development costs, operating costs, general and administrative reimbursements and direct expenses) and revenues are allocated 90 percent to the limited partners and ten percent to the general partners. If prior to partnership payout, however, the cash distribution rate for a certain period equals or exceeds 17.5 percent, then for the following calendar year, these continuing costs and revenues will be allocated 85 percent to the limited partners and 15 percent to the general partners. After partnership payout, continuing costs and revenues will be shared 85 percent by the limited partners, and 15 percent by the general partners, even if the cash distribution rate is less than 17.5 percent. (3) Significant Accounting Policies - Use of Estimates -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from estimates. Oil and Gas Properties -- For financial reporting purposes the Partnership follows the "full-cost" method of accounting for oil and gas property costs. Under this method of accounting, all productive and nonproductive costs incurred in the acquisition and development of oil and gas reserves are capitalized. Such costs include lease acquisitions, geological and geophysical services, drilling, completion, equipment and certain general and administrative costs directly associated with acquisition and development activities. General and administrative costs related to production and general overhead are expensed as incurred. No general and administrative costs were capitalized during the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. 6 SWIFT ENERGY INCOME PARTNERS 1990-C, LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (UNAUDITED) Future development, site restoration, dismantlement and abandonment costs, net of salvage values, are estimated on a property-by-property basis based on current economic conditions and are amortized to expense as the Partnership's capitalized oil and gas property costs are amortized. The unamortized cost of oil and gas properties is limited to the "ceiling limitation" (calculated separately for the Partnership, limited partners and general partners). The "ceiling limitation" is calculated on a quarterly basis and represents the estimated future net revenues from proved properties using current prices, discounted at ten percent, and the lower of cost or fair value of unproved properties. Proceeds from the sale or disposition of oil and gas properties are treated as a reduction of oil and gas property costs with no gains or losses being recognized except in significant transactions. The Partnership computes the provision for depreciation, depletion and amortization of oil and gas properties on the units-of-production method. Under this method, the provision is calculated by multiplying the total unamortized cost of oil and gas properties, including future development, site restoration, dismantlement and abandonment costs, by an overall amortization rate that is determined by dividing the physical units of oil and gas produced during the period by the total estimated units of proved oil and gas reserves at the beginning of the period. The calculation of the "ceiling limitation" and the provision for depreciation, depletion and amortization is based on estimates of proved reserves. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved reserves and in projecting the future rates of production, timing and plan of development. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and judgment. Results of drilling, testing and production subsequent to the date of the estimate may justify revision of such estimate. Accordingly, reserve estimates are often different from the quantities of oil and gas that are ultimately recovered. (4) Related-Party Transactions - An affiliate of the Special General Partner, as Dealer Manager, received $141,508 for managing and overseeing the offering of the limited partnership units. A one-time management fee of $142,380 was paid to Swift for services performed for the Partnership. Effective September 30, 1990, the Partnership entered into a Net Profits and Overriding Royalty Interest Agreement ("NP/OR Agreement") with Swift Energy Managed Pension Assets Partnership 1990-C, Ltd. (Pension Partnership), managed by Swift for the purpose of acquiring working interests in producing oil and gas properties. Under terms of the NP/OR Agreement, the Partnership will convey to the Pension Partnership a nonoperating interest in the aggregate net profits (i.e., oil and gas sales net of related operating costs) of the properties acquired equal to its proportionate share of the property acquisition costs. (5) Gas Imbalances - The gas imbalance receivable and deferred revenues are accounted for on the entitlements method, whereby the Partnership records its share of revenue, based on its entitled amount. Any amounts over or under the entitled amount are recorded as an increase or decrease to the gas imbalance receivable or deferred revenues as applicable. (6) Vulnerability Due to Certain Concentrations - The Company's revenues are primarily the result of sales of its oil and natural gas production. Market prices of oil and natural gas may fluctuate and adversely affect operating results. 7 SWIFT ENERGY INCOME PARTNERS 1990-C, LTD. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (UNAUDITED) The Partnership extends credit to various companies in the oil and gas industry which results in a concentration of credit risk. This concentration of credit risk may be affected by changes in economic or other conditions and may accordingly impact the Partnership's overall credit risk. However, the Managing General Partner believes that the risk is mitigated by the size, reputation, and nature of the companies to which the Partnership extends credit. In addition, the Partnership generally does not require collateral or other security to support customer receivables. (7) Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Partnership's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents and short-term receivables and payables. The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the highly liquid nature of the short-term instruments. 8 SWIFT ENERGY INCOME PARTNERS 1990-C, LTD. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS General The Partnership was formed for the purpose of investing in producing oil and gas properties located within the continental United States. In order to accomplish this, the Partnership goes through two distinct yet overlapping phases with respect to its liquidity and result of operations. When the Partnership is formed, it commences its "acquisition" phase, with all funds placed in short-term investments until required for such property acquisitions. The interest earned on these pre-acquisition investments becomes the primary cash flow source for initial partner distributions. As the Partnership acquires producing properties, net cash from operations becomes available for distribution, along with the investment income. After partnership funds have been expended on producing oil and gas properties, the Partnership enters its "operations" phase. During this phase, oil and gas sales generate substantially all revenues, and distributions to partners reflect those revenues less all associated partnership expenses. The Partnership may also derive proceeds from the sale of acquired oil and gas properties, when the sale of such properties is economically appropriate or preferable to continued operation. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Partnership has completed acquisition of producing oil and gas properties, expending all of the limited partners' net commitments available for property acquisitions. The Partnership does not allow for additional assessments from the partners to fund capital requirements. However, funds in addition to the remaining unexpended net capital commitments of the partners are available from partnership revenues, borrowings or proceeds from the sale of partnership property. The Managing General Partner believes that the funds currently available to the Partnership will be adequate to meet any anticipated capital requirements. Results of Operations The following analysis explains changes in the revenue and expense categories for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 (current quarter) when compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1995 (corresponding quarter), and for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 (current period), when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1995 (corresponding period). Three Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 Oil and gas sales increased $1,939 or a slight 1 percent in the current quarter of 1996 when compared to the corresponding quarter in 1995, primarily due to increased gas and oil prices. An increase in gas prices of 94 percent or $1.18/MCF and in oil prices of 48 percent or $6.93/BBL had a significant impact on partnership performance. Current quarter gas and oil production decreased 41 percent and 56 percent, respectively, when compared to third quarter 1995 production volumes, partially offsetting the increased revenues from increased gas and oil prices. Associated depreciation expense decreased 33 percent or $17,806. The Partnership recorded an additional provision in depreciation, depletion and amortization in the third quarter of 1995 for $42,566 when the present value, discounted at ten percent, of estimated future net revenues from oil and gas properties based on the prices in effect at the filing date, using the guidelines of the Securities and Exchange Commission, was below the fair market value originally paid for oil and gas properties. The additional provision results from the Managing General Partner's determination that the fair market value paid for properties may or may not coincide with reserve valuations determined according to guidelines of the Securities and Exchange Commission. 9 SWIFT ENERGY INCOME PARTNERS 1990-C, LTD. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 Oil and gas sales increased $86,593 or 20 percent in the first nine months of 1996 over the corresponding period in 1995. An increase in gas prices of 46 percent or $.64/MCF and in oil prices of 16 percent or $2.46/BBL were major contributing factors to the increased revenues for the period. Also, current period oil production decreased 31 percent when compared to the corresponding period in 1995, partially offsetting the effect of increased gas and oil prices. Associated depreciation expense increased 1 percent or $1,814. The Partnership recorded an additional provision in depreciation, depletion and amortization in the first nine months of 1995 for $417,905 when the present value, discounted at ten percent, of estimated future net revenues from oil and gas properties, using the guidelines of the Securities and Exchange Commission, was below the fair market value originally paid for oil and gas properties. The additional provision results from the Managing General Partner's determination that the fair market value paid for properties may or may not coincide with reserve valuations determined according to guidelines of the Securities and Exchange Commission. During 1996, partnership revenues and costs will be shared between the limited partners and general partners in a 90:10 ratio. 10 SWIFT ENERGY INCOME PARTNERS 1990-C, LTD.
