(Exact name of registrant as specified in its charter) Delaware (State or other jurisdiction or incorporation) 43 - 1593374 (IRS Employer Identification No.) 1050 West Blue Ridge Boulevard, PANACO Building, Kansas City, MO 64145-1216 (Address of principal executive offices) Zip Code) Registrant's telephone number, including area code: (816) 942 - 6300 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets On July 17, 1997 PANACO, Inc. agreed to acquire Goldking Companies, Inc. and on July 30, 1997 entered into the Restated Merger Agreement with The Union Companies, Inc. ("Union"), Leonard C. Tallerine, Jr. and Mark C. Licata, (together, the "Shareholders"). Prior to the merger, Messrs. Tallerine and Licata owned all of the capital stock of Union. Union was a holding company which owned directly or indirectly all of the capital stock of Goldking Companies, Inc., Goldking Oil and Gas Corp., Goldking Trinity Bay Corp., Goldking Production Company, Hill Transportation Co., Inc. and Umbrella Point Gathering, L.L.C. Union was merged into a newly formed subsidiary of PANACO, Goldking Acquisition Corp. ("Goldking"). The transaction was closed on July 31, 1997. Goldking will be operated as a wholly owned subsidiary of PANACO. Leonard C. Tallerine, Jr., will remain as Chairman and CEO of Goldking and become a Vice-President and a Director of PANACO and Mark C. Licata will become Vice-President-General Counsel and a Director of PANACO. Goldking was founded in 1968 and began by exploring for oil and gas along the Texas and Louisiana Gulf Coast. It grew as an independent oil and gas company by sponsoring limited partnership drilling funds during the 1970's and early 1980's, eventually participating in the drilling of over 1,000 wells and operating over 420 wells during the period of 1981 to 1986. Goldking began converting the limited partnership interests into working interests in the mid to late 1980's. It emphasized contract operating activities, while providing sound operating results and financial conservatism for the working interest owners. Since the acquisition by the Messrs. Tallerine and Licata in 1991, Goldking returned to its exploration and production roots as an aggressive independent explorationist, producer and operator. With the acquisition PANACO obtained estimated additional proved reserves of 50 Bcf equivalent as of July 1, 1997 from approximately 178 wells located throughout the Gulf Coast, along with another estimated 75 Bcf equivalent of probable and possible reserves. The acquisition included a sizable and attractive portfolio of exploration prospects developed using 3-D seismic data, an extensive development program and a seasoned staff of 17 oil and gas professionals experienced in all aspects of Gulf Coast operations. PANACO acquired two pipelines as a part of the transaction. The acquisition gives PANACO a prominent position in the currently very active Lower Frio/Vicksburg area in Trinity Bay, Chambers County, Texas with existing production, exploration prospects generated using recent 3-D seismic data and significant pipeline capacity. Goldking brings to PANACO a complement of reserves with approximately 43% of its proved reserves in oil and an average reserve life of over twelve years. The acquisition also increases PANACO's presence in the onshore and state waters area of the Gulf Coast, where Goldking has a good reputation, name recognition and expertise and experience in operations. Over the last eighteen months Goldking has had a 67% success rate on wells drilled with the support of 3-D seismic. Over 88% of its reserves are operated, giving the Company control over its reserves. This has allowed Goldking to increase its proved reserves by more than five times since 1995 and increase total reserves by more than six times since 1995. The purchase price for the transaction consisted of $7,500,000 in cash, $6,000,000 in notes and 3,154,930 PANACO common shares. Of the cash portion, $6,500,000 was advanced on PANACO's revolving bank loan. Goldking had $13,000,000 in net liabilities as of July 31, 1997. A finder's fee was paid to First Union Capital Markets Corp. with 84,000 PANACO common shares. The transaction will be accounted for as a purchase, with the value of the PANACO common shares recorded at $4.45 per share. Goldking Oil & Gas Corp.

Goldking Companies, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements December 31, 1996 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Organization Goldking Companies, Inc. and Subsidiaries, a Delaware corporation, was formed on October 31, 1996 as a wholly owned subsidiary of The Union Companies, Inc. ("TUCI"), and as the direct parent of Goldking Oil & Gas Corp. ("GKOG"), a Texas corporation; Goldking Production Company ("GKPC"), a Texas corporation; and Hill Transportation Co., Inc. ("HTC"), a Louisiana corporation. Goldking Trinity Bay Corp. ("GKTB"), a Texas corporation, is a wholly owned subsidiary of GKOG and Umbrella Point Gathering Co., LLC ("UPGC"), a Texas limited liability corporation, is a wholly owned subsidiary of HTC. GKOG was formed on June 18, 1990 initially under the name of Union Associates, Inc. The company became a wholly owned subsidiary of TUCI on May 15, 1992. GKTB was formed on May 25, 1995 to acquire certain oil and gas properties in Trinity Bay, Galveston County, Texas. GKPC was formed on January 31, 1992 as a contract operator of oil and gas wells on the Gulf Coast and adjoining states. HTC was formed on February 24, 1978 and owns and operates a 13-mile-long gas pipeline in Louisiana. UPGC was formed on January 25, 1996 as a subsidiary of HTC to assist in the buying and selling of pipelines, and has a duration of 30 years from the date of formation. Goldking Companies, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Companies") are independent energy companies primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development, and production of crude oil and natural gas. The formation of the Companies has been treated as a pooling of interest as of January 1, 1995. On the formation date, Goldking Companies, Inc., exchanged with TUCI 10,000 shares, $0.001 par value, of common stock for 100% of the outstanding common stock of GKPC, GKOG, and HTC. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Companies, and all significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Companies consider all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Short-Term Investments As of December 31, 1996, short-term investments consisted of various equity securities at cost, which approximates fair market values. Oil and Gas Properties The Companies utilize the full-cost method to account for investments in oil and gas properties. Under this method, all direct costs associated with the acquisition, development, and exploration for oil and gas properties are capitalized. Included in capitalized costs for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, are internal costs that are directly identified with acquisition, exploration, and development activities. Oil and gas properties, and estimated future development and abandonment costs are depleted using the units-of-production method based on the ratio of current production to estimated proved oil and gas reserves, as prepared by independent petroleum consultants. Costs directly associated with the acquisition and evaluation of unproved properties are excluded from the amortization computation, until it is determined whether or not impairment has occurred. As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, there were no such exclusions from the amortization computations. Nominal dispositions of oil and gas properties are recorded as adjustments to capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized unless such adjustments would alter significantly the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas. To the extent that capitalized costs of oil and gas properties, net of accumulated depreciation, depletion, and amortization, exceed the after-tax discounted future net revenues of proved oil and gas reserves, such excess capitalized costs would be charged to operations. No such write-down in book value was required at December 31, 1996 and 1995. Administrative Overhead Reimbursement The Companies, as operator of drilling and/or producing properties, was reimbursed by the nonoperators for administration, supervision, office services, and warehousing costs on an annually adjusted fixed rate basis per well, per month. These charges are applied as a reduction of general and administrative expenses for purposes of the statements of operations. 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Other Property Other property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated over an estimated useful life of five years, using the straight-line method. Production Imbalances The Companies follow the sales method of accounting for natural gas revenues. Under this method, revenues are recognized based on actual volumes of gas sold to purchasers. The volumes of gas sold, however, may differ from the volumes to which the Companies are entitled because joint interest owners may take more or less than their ownership interest of natural gas volumes. Imbalances are monitored to minimize significant imbalances, and such imbalances were not significant at December 31, 1996 and 1995. Revenues The Companies recognize crude oil and natural gas revenues from their interests in producing wells, as crude oil and natural gas is sold from those wells. Revenue from the processing and gathering of natural gas is recognized in the period the service is performed. Income Taxes The Companies file federal income tax returns on a consolidated basis with their parent and other members of their affiliated group. For financial statement purposes, income taxes are provided as though the Companies file separate income tax returns; however, those companies incurring losses or credits are allocated the tax benefit based on TUCI's ability to utilize such losses or credits. The Companies account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income, in the period that includes the enactment date. 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Use of Estimates Management has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, and to the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, to prepare these consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Income Taxes No income tax provision was recorded for the year ended December 31, 1996 primarily due to recognizing the benefits of operating loss carryforwards of approximately $587,000. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 are as follows: December 31 Gross deferred tax assets: 1996 1995 ------------------------------------ Depreciation, depletion, and amortization $ 1,998,000 $ 1,799,000 Net operating loss carryforwards 1,638,000 1,229,000 Other 20,000 1,000 ------------------------------------ Gross deferred tax assets 3,656,000 3,029,000 Valuation allowance (1,341,000) (1,499,000) ------------------------------------ Net deferred tax assets 2,315,000 1,530,000 Gross deferred tax liabilities: Intangible drilling costs (2,315,000) (1,530,000) ==================================== Net deferred tax liabilities $ - $ - ==================================== At December 31, 1996, the Company had $4,550,000 of net operating losses which will be carried forward and will expire between 2007 and 2010. The Companies have a valuation allowance because the Companies believe that some of the deferred tax assets may not be realizable. 3. Debt On January 9, 1996, GKOG entered into a reserve-based $10 million revolving line of credit agreement with a bank (the "Line of Credit"), which is secured by GKOG's oil and gas properties. This agreement replaces an existing revolving line of credit. The amount available to be drawn under the Line of Credit is determined by a borrowing-base calculation which is redetermined periodically by the bank. The Line of Credit matures January 9, 1999 and bears interest at prime plus 0.75% (9% at December 31, 1996). At December 31, 1996, the outstanding amount advanced on the Line of Credit was $2,656,000. GKTB entered into a loan agreement (the "Loan") in 1995 with a lending institution in the amount of $8,772,000 secured by GKTB's properties in Trinity Bay. Collateralized net book value at December 31, 1996 and 1995 was $8,044,000 and $6,353,000, respectively. The Loan requires quarterly principal and interest payments beginning January 1, 1996 for a period of nine years with a subsequent balloon payment. In addition to the scheduled principal payments, commencing January 1, 1996, the Loan also requires a contingent principal payment equal to a percentage of the net cash flow (as defined) for the immediately preceding quarter. At December 31, 1996, the outstanding Loan balance was $7,288,000 and $5,980,000, respectively. The Loan also provides for an additional payment to the lender in the amount of $1,000,000, which serves as a discount and is being amortized into interest expense over the term of the Loan agreement. The additional amount is to be repaid quarterly beginning January 1, 1996 based on percentages of the net cash flow for the immediately preceding quarter. All payments for the additional amount will be applied first to the interest on the additional amount and then to the principal balance. Interest not paid when due will be added to the principal balance of the additional amount. GKTB's portion of oil and gas sales proceeds from the Trinity Bay properties is held in a restricted cash account by the lending institution for payment of principal and interest. Interest rates at December 31, 1996 and 1995 were 10.73% and 10.82%, respectively. The Loan agreement contains, among other things, provisions for the maintenance of certain financial ratios and covenants. GKTB incurred financing costs in connection with the Loan of $172,000, which are being amortized over the term of the Loan. These financing costs (net of amortization) are included in deferred costs. During 1995, GKOG entered into an agreement with Tenneco Ventures, Inc. ("Tenneco"), pursuant to which Tenneco purchased from GKOG a Term Overriding Royalty Interest in certain properties (the "Term Override"). The proceeds of the Tenneco funding were used by GKOG to finance the drilling and completion of certain unproved properties, the construction of a pipeline, and for drilling other specified unproved prospects. The Term Override terminates when Tenneco has received proceeds from the Term Override equal to the amount advanced by Tenneco for the purchase of the Term Override plus an annualized internal rate of return. During 1995, the internal rate of return per the agreement was 25%. During 1996, the agreement was renegotiated to state an internal rate of return of 18% retroactively to day one of the agreement. Current year balances have been adjusted to reflect the change in rates. At December 31, 1996 and 1995, $2,633,000 and $2,035,000, respectively, were outstanding and reflected as long-term debt. 3. Debt (continued) Based on third-party reserve estimates at December 31, 1996, the future revenue attributable to the Term Override will not be sufficient to pay the 18% rate of return necessary to terminate the Term Override as described above. There is no recourse to the Companies if the proceeds from the Term Override are insufficient to pay the 18% rate of return. The difference between the 18% rate of return and the amounts paid to Tenneco from the Term Override since September 1996 was $100,000 and is not reflected in the balance sheets of the Companies. If future revenues are insufficient to allow payment of the principal balance, reductions to the liability will be applied against the full cost pool. Accrued interest prior to September 1996 was added to the outstanding principal balance. Interest paid on outstanding debt during 1996 and 1995 was $1,244,000 and $301,000, respectively. Scheduled debt maturities for the next five years and thereafter are as follows: 1997 $ 1,243,000 1998 1,146,000 1999 1,003,000 2000 955,000 2001 955,000 Thereafter 8,366,000 ------------------ Total 13,668,000 Less discount 786,000 ================== Net $ 12,882,000 ================== 4. Related Party Transactions Advances to affiliates are incurred by the Companies in the ordinary course of business, and include $693,000 and $295,000 advanced to officers of the Company as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Such balances have no terms related to settlement and do not bear interest. The respective parties' intent for settlement has been used as a basis for classifying such balances in the financial statements. During 1996 and 1995, $21,000 and $2,000, respectively, of legal fees were incurred by the Companies for services performed by Looper, Reed, Mark & McGraw, Incorporated, a law firm in which the president of the Companies was associated. 5. Noncash Transactions During 1995, a debt agreement was entered into which requires a $1,000,000 payment in addition to the actual borrowed amount. The amount, reflected as a discount to debt, is being amortized over the anticipated life of the agreement. During 1996 and 1995, interest expense of $283,000 and $259,000, respectively, was included as principal on outstanding debt balances. 6. Commitments and Contingencies Litigation From time to time, the Companies are involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of their operations in the normal course of business. At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Companies were not engaged in any legal proceedings that are expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on the Companies' financial statements. Contingent Liabilities The Companies are involved in disputes with several oil companies, acting in their capacities as the operators of wells in which GKOG owns an interest. Management believes the operators have made a number of excessive charges in connection with operating the wells, and the Companies are on record as opposing those charges and being unwilling to pay them. Pending further negotiations, these amounts, totaling $713,000 and $235,000 as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, have been reclassified from current accounts payable to contingent liabilities. Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments which potentially expose the Companies to credit risk consist principally of trade receivables and crude oil and natural gas price swap agreements. Accounts receivable are generally from companies with significant oil and gas marketing activities which would be impacted by conditions or occurrences affecting that industry (see Note 7). Leases For the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Companies incurred rent expense of approximately $132,000 and $126,000, respectively. Future minimum rental payments are as follows at December 31, 1996: 1997 $ 128,000 1998 $ 39,000 1999 $ 10,000 2000 $ 10,000 2001 $ 4,000 Thereafter $ - 7. Financial Derivatives The Companies have only limited involvement with derivative financial instruments and do not use them for trading purposes. They are used to manage well-defined price risks. During 1996 and 1995, GKTB entered into a crude oil price swap and oil and gas put options with third parties. These instruments hedge against potential fluctuations in future prices for GKTB's anticipated production volumes based on current engineering estimates. The instruments qualify as hedges; therefore, any gain and losses will be recorded when related oil or gas production has been delivered. The cost of entering into the instruments has been recorded as a deferred cost on the balance sheets and is being amortized over the life of the instruments. At December 31, 1996 and 1995, the unamortized deferred cost is $459,000 and $263,000, respectively, which is being amortized to revenues on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related contracts. At December 31, 1996, the crude oil swap agreement was for 110,194 barrels at $17.12 from January 1, 1997 through December 31, 2000. Gas put options were for an aggregate 529,425 MMBtu at $1.87 from January 1, 1997 through December 31, 2000. Oil put options were for an aggregate 55,112 barrels at $17.62 from January 1, 1997 through December 31, 2000. At December 31, 1995, the crude oil swap agreement was for 148,000 barrels at $17.12 from August 1995 through December 2000. Gas put options were for an aggregate 730,000 MMBtu at $1.87 from August 1995 through December 2000. Oil put options were for an aggregate 74,000 barrels at $17.62 from August 1995 through December 2000. If a mark-to-market adjustment were recorded at December 31, 1996, these derivative contracts would result in a net loss of $600,000. However, GKTB intends to maintain these options through their maturity as long-term hedges of crude oil and natural gas price risk from producing activities. Therefore, the losses implied by the mark-to-market calculation have not been recognized. Oil and gas revenues were decreased by $266,000 in 1996 and increased by $12,000 in 1995 as a result of such hedging activity. 8. Determination of Fair Values of Financial Instruments Fair value for cash, accounts receivables, investments, payables, and long-term debt approximates carrying value. The fair market values of advances to affiliates, officers, and stockholders, and notes receivable, affiliates are not practicable to determine. 9. Accumulated Depreciation, Depletion, and Amortization The balances relating to accumulated depreciation, depletion, and amortization ("DD&A") as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 have changed subsequent to our audit report issued April 9, 1997. Upon auditing the 1995 amount, which was unaudited in the April 9, 1997 report. DD&A expense for 1995 was increased $1,121,000 and accumulated DD&A was increased from $8,731,000 to $9,852,000 as of December 31, 1996. Accumulated DD&A increased from $10,976,000 to $12,097,000 as of December 31, 1996, as a result of this change. 10. Major Customers The Companies sell their production under contracts with various purchasers, with certain domestic purchasers accounting for sales of 10% or more per year as follows: 1996 25%, 18%, 16% 1995 38% 11. Subsequent Event On July 31, 1997, Goldking was acquired by Panaco, Inc. Supplemental Information - Disclosures About Oil and Gas Producing Activities - Unaudited The following supplemental information regarding the oil and gas activities of the Company is presented pursuant to the disclosure requirements promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 69, Disclosure About Oil and Gas Activities. The following estimates of reserve quantities and related standardized measure of discounted future net cash flow are estimates only, and do not purport to reflect realizable values or fair market values of the Companies' reserves. The Companies emphasize that reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and that estimates of new discoveries are more imprecise than those of producing oil and gas properties. Additionally, the prices of oil and gas have been very volatile and downward changes in prices can significantly affect quantities that are economically recoverable. Accordingly, these estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available and the changes may be significant. All of the Companies' proved reserves are located in the United States. Proved reserves are estimated reserves of crude oil and natural gas that geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves are those expected to be recovered through existing wells, equipment, and operating methods. The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows is computed by applying year-end prices of oil and gas (with consideration of price changes only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements) to the estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves, less estimated future expenditures (based on year-end costs) to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves, less estimated future income tax expenses.

Goldking Companies, Inc. & Subsidiaries Condensed Notes to Financial Statements In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 and the results of operations and changes in stockholder's equity and cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. Most adjustments made to the financial statements are of a normal, recurring nature. Although the Companies believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures, including significant accounting policies, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companies' annual audited financial statements. On July 30, 1997, PANACO, Inc. acquired the Goldking Companies for a combination of cash, shareholder notes, PANACO Common Shares and the assumption of debt. The acquisition by PANACO did not include the Goldking Companies advances receivable from affiliates or a real estate investment, both owned by the Goldking Companies. Certain reclassification entries have been made to the Companies' historical financial statement amounts to provide for accounting and reporting consistency with PANACO, Inc. For that reason, unaudited pro forma financial information may not be presented in the same format or amounts may be classified differently than those contained in these financial statements. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL DATA The following unaudited pro forma combined financial data are derived from the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and certain historical financial data with respect to various assets and companies acquired by the Company. The Unaudited Pro Forma Balance Sheet at June 30, 1997 has been prepared assuming the Goldking Acquisition had occurred on June 30, 1997. The Unaudited Pro Forma Statement of Income (Operations) for the six months ended June 30, 1997 has been prepared assuming the Goldking Acquisition had been consummated January 1, 1997. The Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Statement of Income (Operations) for the year ended December 31, 1996 has been prepared assuming the Goldking Acquisition, the Amoco Acquisition and the Bayou Sorrel Field sale had all been consummated on January 1, 1996. The Amoco Acquisition occurred on October 8, 1996 and the Bayou Sorrel Field sale was effective September 1, 1996. The unaudited pro forma combined financial data reflects the preliminary allocation of the Goldking purchase price based on June 30, 1997 Goldking financial statement amounts. The final allocation of the purchase price, including the amounts of the increases in consolidated assets and liabilities on the closing date of July 31, 1997 may differ with a resulting effect on depletion, depreciation and amortization of expense. Management does not expect these differences to be material. The unaudited pro forma combined financial data should be read in conjunction with the notes thereto and with the Consolidated Financial Statements on the Company and the notes thereto. This data is not indicative of the financial position or results of operations of the Company which would actually have occurred if the transactions described above had occurred at the dates presented or which may be obtained in the future. In addition, future results may vary significantly from the results reflected in such statements due to various factors. PANACO, Inc.
