Note to Financial Statements
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The interim financial information as of September 30, 1999, and for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999, 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 audited financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 1998.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
General
Southwest Oil & Gas Income Fund XI-A, L.P. was organized as a Delaware
limited partnership on May 5, 1992. The offering of such limited
partnership interests began August 20, 1992 as part of a shelf offering
registered under the name Southwest Oil & Gas 1992-93 Income Program.
Minimum capital requirements for the Partnership were met on March 17,
1993, with the offering of limited partnership interests concluding April
30, 1993. At the conclusion of the offering of limited partnership
interests, 122 limited partners had purchased 2,821 units for $1,410,500.
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.
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 anticipates the possibility of
performing workovers during the next year. The Partnership could possibly
experience a steady decline.
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. For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the net
capitalized costs did not exceed the estimated present value. A return to
the oil price environment experienced during the first two quarters of 1999
would 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, 1999 and 1998
The following table provides certain information regarding performance
factors for the quarters ended September 30, 1999 and 1998:
Three Months
Ended Percentage
September 30, Increase
1999 1998 (Decrease)
---- ---- ---------
Average price per barrel of oil $ 20.11 12.04 67%
Average price per mcf of gas $ 2.52 2.10 20%
Oil production in barrels 1,410 1,900 (26%)
Gas production in mcf 14,080 18,900 (26%)
Gross oil and gas revenue $ 63,793 65,180 (2%)
Net oil and gas revenue $ 35,010 26,122 34%
Partnership distributions $ 20,000 11,000 82%
Limited partner distributions $ 18,000 9,900 82%
Per unit distribution to limited partners $ 6.38 3.51 82%
Number of limited partner units 2,821 2,821
Revenues
The Partnership's oil and gas revenues decreased to $63,793 from $65,180
for the quarters ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, a
decrease of 2%. The principal factors affecting the comparison of the
quarters ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 are as follows:
1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
increased during the quarter ended September 30, 1999 as compared to
the quarter ended September 30, 1998 by 67%, or $8.07 per barrel,
resulting in an increase of approximately $15,300 in revenues. Oil
sales represented 44% of total oil and gas sales during the quarter
ended September 30, 1999 as compared to 37% during the quarter ended
September 30, 1998.
The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership
increased during the same period by 20%, or $.42 per mcf, resulting in
an increase of approximately $7,900 in revenues.
The total increase in revenues due to the change in prices received
from oil and gas production is approximately $23,200. 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 490 barrels or 26% during the
quarter ended September 30, 1999 as compared to the quarter
ended September 30, 1998, resulting in a decrease of approximately $9,900
in revenues.
Gas production decreased approximately 4,820 mcf or 26% during the same
period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $12,100 in revenues.
The total decrease in revenues due to the change in production is
approximately $22,000. The decrease in production is due primarily to
property sales and natural decline.
Costs and Expenses
Total costs and expenses decreased to $37,387 from $59,687 for the quarters
ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, a decrease of 37%. The
decrease is the result of lower lease operating costs, depletion expense
and general and administrative expense.
1. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 26% lower, or
approximately $10,300 less during the quarter ended September 30, 1999 as
compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1998. The decline in lease
operating costs is primarily in relation to the drop in oil prices
experienced throughout 1998 and into the first six months of 1999, which
made it uneconomical to perform workovers and major repairs. Although
prices have increased during the third quarter of 1999, only routine
repairs and maintenance for the most part are being performed.
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
58% or approximately $5,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 1999
as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1998. The decrease of
general and administrative costs were in part due to additional
accounting costs incurred in 1998 in relation to the outsourcing of K-1
tax package preparation; a change in auditors requiring opinions from
both the predecessors and successor auditors and a new accounting
pronouncement requiring review by the independent auditors of the 10-
Q's. The Managing General Partner has also made an effort to cut back
on general and administrative costs whenever and wherever possible.
3. Depletion expense decreased to $5,000 for the quarter ended September
30, 1999 from $12,000 for the same period in 1998. This represents a
decrease of 58%. 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 increase in the price of oil and gas used to determine
the Partnership's reserves for October 1, 1999 as compared to 1998.
B. General Comparison of the Nine Month Periods Ended September 30, 1999
and 1998
The following table provides certain information regarding performance
factors for the nine month periods ended September 30, 1999 and 1998:
Nine Months
Ended Percentage
September 30, Increase
1999 1998 (Decrease)
---- ---- ---------
Average price per barrel of oil $ 14.83 12.27 21%
Average price per mcf of gas $ 2.08 2.00 4%
Oil production in barrels 4,080 6,400 (36%)
Gas production in mcf 42,080 55,900 (25%)
Gross oil and gas revenue $ 147,972 192,696 (23%)
Net oil and gas revenue $ 65,502 66,574 (2%)
Partnership distributions $ 74,407 57,784 29%
Limited partner distributions $ 69,407 52,084 33%
Per unit distribution to limited partners $ 24.60 18.46 33%
Number of limited partner units 2,821 2,821
Revenues
The Partnership's oil and gas revenues decreased to $147,972 from $192,696
for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, a
decrease of 23%. The principal factors affecting the comparison of the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 are as follows:
1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
increased during the nine months ended September 30, 1999 as compared
to the nine months ended September 30, 1998 by 21%, or $2.56 per
barrel, resulting in an increase of approximately $16,400 in revenues.
Oil sales represented 41% of total oil and gas sales during the
quarters ended September 30, 1999 and 1998.
The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership
increased during the same period by 4%, or $.08 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 $20,900. 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 2,320 barrels or 36% during the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 1998, resulting in a decrease of approximately
$34,400 in revenues.
Gas production decreased approximately 13,820 mcf or 25% during the
same period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $28,700 in
revenues.
The total decrease in revenues due to the change in production is
approximately $63,100. The decrease in production is due primarily to
property sales in 1998.
Costs and Expenses
Total costs and expenses decreased to $120,387 from $280,057 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, a decrease of 57%.
The decrease is the result of lower general and administrative expense,
depletion expense and lease operating costs.
1. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 35% lower, or
approximately $43,700 less during the nine months ended September 30,
1999 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1998. The
decline in lease operating costs is primarily in relation to the drop
in oil prices experienced throughout 1998 and into the first six months
of 1999, which made it uneconomical to perform workovers and major
repairs. Although prices have increased during the third quarter of
1999, only routine repairs and maintenance for the most part are being
performed.
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
52% or approximately $17,300 during the nine months ended September 30,
1999 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1998. The
decrease of general and administrative costs were in part due to
additional accounting costs incurred in 1998 in relation to the
outsourcing of K-1 tax package preparation; a change in auditors
requiring opinions from both the predecessors and successor auditors
and a new accounting pronouncement requiring review by the independent
auditors of the 10-Q's. The Managing General Partner has also made an
effort to cut back on general and administrative costs whenever and
wherever possible.
3. Depletion expense decreased to $22,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 from $60,000 for the same period in 1998. This
represents a decrease of 63%. 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 increase in the price of oil and gas used
to determine the Partnership's reserves for October 1, 1999 as compared
to 1998.
4. The net capitalized costs for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
exceeded the estimated present value of oil and gas reserves,
discounted at 10% in the amount of $59,663, such excess costs were
charged to current expense. The write-down had the effect of reducing
net income, but did not affect cash flow or partner distributions.
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 $52,900 in
the nine months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to approximately
$68,100 in the nine months ended September 30, 1998. The primary source of
the 1999 cash flow from operating activities was profitable operations.
Cash flows used in investing activities were approximately $200 in the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to approximately $3,200 in the
nine months ended September 30, 1998. The principle use of the 1999 cash
flow from investing activities was the change in oil and gas properties.
Cash flows used in financing activities were approximately $74,400 in the
nine months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to approximately $57,800
in the nine months ended September 30, 1998. The only use in financing
activities was the distributions to partners.
Total distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 1999 were
$74,407 of which $69,407 was distributed to the limited partners and $5,000
to the general partners. The per unit distribution to limited partners
during the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was $24.60. Total
distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 were $57,784
of which $52,084 was distributed to the limited partners and $5,700 to the
general partners. The per unit distribution to limited partners during the
nine months ended September 30, 1998 was $18.46.
The source for the 1999 distributions of $74,407 was oil and gas operations
of approximately $52,900, partially offset by a change in oil and gas
properties of approximately $(200), with the balance from available cash on
hand at the beginning of the period. The sources for the 1998
distributions of $57,784 were oil and gas operations of approximately
$68,100, partially offset by the change in oil and gas properties of
approximately $3,200, resulting in excess cash for contingencies or
subsequent distributions.
Since inception of the Partnership, cumulative monthly cash distributions
of $952,195 have been made to the partners. As of September 30, 1999,
$870,145 or $308.45 per limited partner unit has been distributed to the
limited partners, representing a 62% return of the capital contributed.
As of September 30, 1999, the Partnership had approximately $37,900 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.
Liquidity - Managing General Partner
The Managing General Partner has a highly leveraged capital structure with
over $21.0 million of interest payments due within the next twelve months
on its debt obligations. Due to the severely depressed commodity prices
experienced for the past eighteen months, the Managing General Partner is
experiencing difficulty in generating sufficient cash flow to meet its
obligations and sustain its operations. The Managing General Partner is
currently in the process of renegotiating the terms of its various
obligations with its creditors and/or attempting to seek new lenders or
equity investors. Additionally, the Managing General Partner would
consider disposing of certain assets in order to meet its obligations.
There can be no assurance that the Managing General Partner's debt
restructuring efforts will be successful or that the lenders will agree to
a course of action consistent with the Managing General Partners
requirements in restructuring the obligations. Even if such agreement is
reached, it may require approval of additional lenders, which is not
assured. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the sales of assets
can be successfully accomplished on terms acceptable to the Managing
General Partner. Under current circumstances, the Managing General
Partner's ability to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability
to (1) successfully restructure its obligations or obtain additional
financing as may be required, (2) maintain compliance with all debt
covenants, (3) generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a
timely basis, and (4) achieve satisfactory levels of future earnings. If
the Managing General Partner is unsuccessful in its efforts, it may be
unable to meet its obligations making it necessary to undertake such other
actions as may be appropriate to preserve asset values.
Information Systems for the Year 2000
The Managing General Partner provides all data processing needs of the
Partnership. The Managing General Partner has identified and assessed its
exposure to the potential Year 2000 software and imbedded chip processing
and date sensitivity issue. Through the Managing General Partners data
processing subsidiary, Midland Southwest Software, Inc., the Managing
General Partner proactively initiated an internal plan to identify
applicable hardware and software, assess impact and effect, estimate costs,
construct and implement corrective actions, and prepare contingency plans.
Identification & Assessment
The Managing General Partner currently believes it identified the internal
and external software and hardware that had the potential for date
sensitivity problems. Four critical systems and/or functions were
identified and addressed: (1) the proprietary software of the Partnership
(OGAS) that is used for oil & gas property management and financial
accounting functions, (2) the DEC VAX/VMS hardware and operating system,
(3) various third-party application software including lease economic
analysis, fixed asset management, geological applications, and
payroll/human resource programs, and (4) External Agents.
The proprietary software of the Partnership has met compliance
requirements. Since this is an internally generated software package, the
Managing General Partner incurred approximately $25,000 in man-hours.
Modifications were made by internal staff and did not represent additional
costs to the Partnership. The Managing General Partner has not made
contingency plans at this time since the conversion is ahead of schedule
and being handled by Managing General Partner controlled internal
programmers. Given the complexity of the systems that were modified, it is
anticipated that some problems may arise, but having met the early
completion date, the Managing General Partner feels that adequate time
remains available to overcome unforeseen delays.
DEC has released a fully compliant version of its operating system that is
used by the Partnership on the DEC VAX system. It was installed, the
Managing General Partner believes that this solved any potential problems
on the system.
The Managing General Partner has identified various third-party software
that may have date sensitivity problems and is continuing to work with the
vendors to secure solutions as well as prepare contingency plans. After
review and evaluation of the vendor plans and status, the Managing General
Partner believes that the problems will be resolved prior to the year 2000
or the alternate contingency plan will sufficiently and adequately
remediate the problem so that there is no material disruption to business
functions.
The External Agents of the Partnership include suppliers, customers,
owners, vendors, banks, product purchasers including pipelines, and other
oil and gas property operators. The Managing General Partner is in the
process of identifying and communicating with each critical External Agent
about its plan and progress thereof in addressing the Year 2000 issue.
This process is on schedule and the Managing General Partner, at this time,
believes that there should be no material interference or disruption
associated with any of the critical External Agent's functions necessary to
the Partnership's business. The Managing General Partner estimates
completion of this audit by year end 1999 and believes that alternate plans
can be devised to circumvent any material problems arising from critical
External Agent noncompliance.
Cost
To date, the Managing General Partner has incurred only minimal internal
man-hour costs for identification, planning, and maintenance. The Managing
General Partner believes that the necessary additional costs will also be
minimal and most will fall under normal and general maintenance procedures
and updates. An accurate cost cannot be determined at this time, but it is
expected that the total cost to remediate all systems to be less than
$50,000.
Risks/Contingency
The failure to correct critical systems of the Partnership, or the failure
of a material business partner or External Agent to resolve critical Year
2000 issues could have a serious adverse impact on the ability of the
Partnership to continue operations and meet obligations. Based on the
Managing General Partner's evaluation and assessment to date, it is
believed that any interruption in operation will be minor and short-lived
and pose no material monetary loss, safety, or environmental risk to the
Partnership. However, due to the external nature of the potential
problems, it is impossible to accurately identify the risks, quantify
potential impacts or establish a final contingency plan. The Managing
General Partner believes that its assessment and contingency planning will
be complete no later than year-end 1999.
Worst Case Scenario
The Securities and Exchange Commission requires public companies to
forecast the most reasonably likely worst case Year 2000 scenario, assuming
that the Managing General Partner's Year 2000 plan is not effective.
Analysis of the most reasonably likely worst case Year 2000 scenarios the
Partnership may face leads to contemplation of the following possibilities
which, though considered highly unlikely, must be included in any
consideration of worst cases: widespread failure of electrical, gas, and
similar supplies by utilities serving the Partnership; widespread
disruption of the services of communications common carriers; similar
disruption to means and modes of transportation for the Partnership and its
employees, contractors, suppliers, and customers; significant disruption to
the Partnership's ability to gain access to, and continue working in,
office buildings and other facilities; and the failure, of third-parties
systems, the effects of which would have a cumulative material adverse
impact on the Partnership's critical systems. The Partnership could
experience an inability by customers, traders, and others to pay, on a
timely basis or at all, obligations owed to the Partnership. Under these
circumstances, the adverse effect on the Partnership, and the diminution of
Partnership revenues, could be material, although not quantifiable at this
time.
