KEY PRODUCTION COMPANY, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
The financial statements included herein have been prepared by Key
Production Company, Inc. ("Key" or the "Company"), without audit, pursuant to
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and reflect
all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair
statement of the results for the interim periods, on a basis consistent with the
annual audited statements. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring
nature except as disclosed herein. Certain information, accounting policies,
and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the
disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and summary of significant accounting policies and notes thereto
included in the Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Key consummated the acquisition of Brock Exploration Corporation ("Brock")
on March 28, 1996 in a tax-free reorganization pursuant to which Brock became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Key. To effect the transaction, each Brock
shareholder received one share of Key common stock for each 1.45 Brock shares
held. The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of Key for
1997 and 1996 and the accounts of Brock for periods subsequent to the
acquisition.
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 and
disclosure of contingent 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 those estimates.

NET INCOME PER SHARE
Net income per share amounts are based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding for each period. When dilutive, outstanding options
to purchase common stock are included as share equivalents using the treasury
stock method. Only one per share figure is presented for each period because
the fully diluted and primary earnings per share amounts are not materially
different.
The Company will adopt Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings
per Share," on December 15, 1997. The new standard replaces "primary earnings
per share" with "basic earnings per share" and redefines "diluted earnings per
share." On a pro forma basis, the Company would report the following per share
results.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
FINANCIAL RESULTS
Key is reporting third quarter net income of $2.0 million. This represents
an 8 percent decrease from the $2.2 million reported for the same period of
1996. On a per share basis, net income of $.16 is down 11 percent from the $.18
reported a year ago. Third quarter results for 1997 and 1996 are based on
revenues of $9.6 million and $9.8 million, respectively.
On a year to date basis, Key is reporting a 39 percent increase in net
income and a 30 percent increase in net income per share. Net income for the
nine month periods was $6.9 million in 1997 versus $5.0 million in 1996.
Revenues for the nine month periods of 1997 and 1996 were $30.2 million and
$25.9 million, respectively.

Oil Volume - Barrels per day 2,120 2,466 2,238 2,251

Oil and gas revenues for the third quarters of 1997 and 1996 remained close
despite a significant decrease to oil prices in the third quarter of 1997.
Increases to gas prices and gas production offset the negative effect of lower
oil prices and production. Oil and gas revenues for the nine month periods
increased 17 percent between 1997 and 1996. Production increases from the
acquisition of Brock in the first quarter of 1996 and new drilling are fueling
the increase.
Oil sales for the current quarter of $3.4 million are down 27 percent from
the $4.7 million reported for the same quarter a year ago. Decreases to oil
prices and volumes contributed to the drop in oil revenues. Daily oil
production went from 2,466 barrels per day in 1996 to 2,120 barrels per day in
1997. Production declines accounted for $.7 million of the revenue variance.
Key's average oil price dropped 15 percent and had a negative impact of $.6
million on revenues.
Oil sales for the first nine months went from $12.0 million in 1996 to
$11.3 million in 1997 and are lagging 1996 results by 6 percent. Year to date
oil production remained relatively flat while oil prices decreased by 5 percent.
The average price went from $19.46 per barrel in 1996 to $18.48 per barrel in
1997. Price declines are responsible for approximately $.6 million of the
variance.
Gas sales for the third quarter of 1997 increased 24 percent to reach $6
million. Daily gas production increased from 26,758 Mcf per day in 1996 to
30,725 Mcf per day in 1997. This 15 percent increase to production added
approximately $.7 million. Key's average price for the quarter increased by 8
percent and added another $.4 million to gas sales.
-9-
Gas sales for the nine month period increased by 37 percent between 1996
and 1997. Daily production increased from 24,658 Mcf per day in 1996 to 29,556
Mcf per day in 1997. Production increases contributed approximately $2.6
million to gas sales. Key's average price increased from $1.97 per Mcf in 1996
to $2.25 per Mcf in 1997, for an additional $2.2 million in sales.
Product sales from gas processing plants for the third quarter and first
nine months increased 111 percent and 95 percent, respectively, but did not
contribute a significant amount to oil and gas revenues. Key's oil and gas
revenues for the first nine months of 1997 are derived from the following
product mix: 38 percent oil, 60 percent gas and 2 percent plant products. This
compares to the following mix for 1996: 47 percent oil, 52 percent gas and 1
percent plant products.
Other revenues for the first nine months of 1997 and 1996 are $197,000 and
$286,000, respectively. Key's primary source of other revenue for 1997 and 1996
has been income from a pipeline acquired in the 1996 Brock acquisition. This
pipeline was subsequently sold in March of 1997 resulting in a decrease to other
revenues between 1996 and 1997.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) expense for the third
quarter and first nine months of 1997 increased 4 percent and 2 percent,
respectively, from the comparable periods of 1996. The slight increase to third
quarter expense was driven by an increase to the DD&A rate with oil and gas
sales remaining flat. Key's third quarter rate as a percentage of revenue
increased from 31.4 percent in 1996 to 32.5 percent in 1997. The year to date
DD&A expense is a direct result of Key's increased oil and gas sales. However,
due to a decline in the DD&A rate from 34.7 percent in 1996 to 30.1 percent in
1997, the increase was very slight. Also included in DD&A expense is a
relatively immaterial amount of depreciation on fixed assets and amortization of
financing costs associated with the Company's credit facility.
Operating expenses held steady at $2.6 million for the third quarters of
1997 and 1996, and increased 16 percent between the first nine months of 1997
and 1996. Most of the expense increase between 1997 and 1996 is a result of the
Brock acquisition in 1996 and the resulting larger property base. Expenses for
1996 do not include a full year of Brock expenses. On a unit of production
basis, third quarter expenses decreased from $.69 per EMcf in 1996 to $.66 per
EMcf in 1997. Year to date expenses compared on a unit of production basis
increased from $.65 per EMcf in 1996 to $.67 per EMcf in 1997. (Oil is compared
to natural gas in terms of equivalent thousand cubic feet, "EMcf." One barrel of
oil is the energy equivalent of six Mcf of natural gas.)
General, administrative and other costs decreased 2 percent between the
third quarters of 1996 and 1997, and increased 2 percent between the first nine
months of 1997 and 1996. Due to certain economies of scale and full cost
accounting rules which provide for the capitalization of direct overhead related
to exploration and development activities, the Company was able to maintain
levels of administrative expense while managing a larger asset base. General,
administrative and other costs declined on a units of production basis from $.15
per EMcf for the first nine months of 1996 to $.13 per EMcf for the first nine
months of 1997.
Interest expense before capitalization for the first nine months of 1997
and 1996 was $1.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively. Key capitalized
interest on borrowings associated with undeveloped leasehold. The amounts
capitalized for the same periods were $.7 million and $.5 million, respectively.
-10-
CASH FLOW AND LIQUIDITY
Liquidity refers to the ability of an enterprise to generate adequate
amounts of cash to satisfy its financial commitments. Key's primary needs for
cash are for payment of existing financing obligations and trade commitments
related to oil and gas operations. The Company's primary sources of liquidity
are cash flows from operating activities and debt financing. Management
believes that the overall sources of funds available to Key, including cash on
hand, will continue to be more than sufficient to satisfy the Company's
financial obligations.
Cash from operating activities reached $24.6 million for the first nine
months of 1997, a 69 percent increase over the $14.6 million reported for the
same period of 1996. Increases to net income, deferred taxes and DD&A added
$3.2 million. The other $7.0 million of the increase is primarily due to a
decrease in revenue receivables and an increase in accounts payable balances.
Cash expenditures for exploration and development reached $23.4 million for
the first nine months of 1997. This is an 83 percent increase over the $12.8
million expended in the first nine months of 1996. For the nine months of 1997,
exploration and development expenditures amounted to 95 percent of cash from
operating activities. For the same period of 1996, 88 percent of cash from
operating activities was expended for exploration and development.
Cash expended for the acquisition of oil and gas properties includes the
acquisition of non-producing acreage over 11 salt domes in west central
Mississippi and the acquisition of producing properties in the Hardeman basin of
north Texas.
Since year end 1996, the Company has borrowed a net $9.5 million against
its credit facility. The long-term debt balance was $32.0 million at September
30, 1997, compared to $22.5 million at December 31, 1996. Proceeds from the
borrowings were used to finance the above acquisitions and drilling
opportunities in excess of cash generated by operating activities. Between year
end 1995 and September 30, 1996, long-term debt increased from $14.6 million to
$18.5 million. Subsequent to the acquisition of Brock, Key drew on its own
credit facility to retire the Brock debt and obtain more favorable financing
terms.
The Company's ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 1.1 to 1
at September 30, 1997, a decrease from the 1.8 to 1 ratio calculated at December
31, 1996.
FUTURE TRENDS
As discussed previously, expenditures for oil and gas exploration and
development are significantly ahead of last year. The majority of the drilling
activity during 1997 has been in the California and Mid-Continent regions. The
Company expects to drill several more wells in these regions during the fourth
quarter of 1997 and anticipates 1998 drilling activity to outpace 1997 activity
in both regions. Production from recently completed drilling in California is
expected to have a significant impact on fourth quarter 1997 gas production.
Drilling in the California region is focused on opportunities identified
through 3-D seismic technology. The Company has conducted several 3-D seismic
surveys that have yielded excellent drilling success to date. Seismic surveys
will be concluded on three additional areas by mid-1998 and a significant
number of additional drilling locations are expected to be identified as a
-11-
result. Drilling on these already-identified prospects is expected to continue
throughout 1998 and into 1999.
Gulf Coast exploration efforts continue to focus in the Mississippi Salt
Dome Basin and in Vermillion Parish, Louisiana. Earlier in 1997, the Company
acquired a leasehold interest in acreage covering twelve domes in the
Mississippi Salt Dome Basin. The Company is currently participating in drilling
a well in this area based on conventional 2-D seismic data. 3-D seismic
technology will be used to identify additional drilling opportunities. The
Company is currently conducting a 38 square mile seismic survey and expects to
commence drilling utilizing data obtained from that survey during the second
quarter of 1998. Several additional seismic surveys are scheduled to be
completed during 1998 with drilling on these prospects expected to commence in
1998 and continue into 2000. The seismic survey work in Vermillion Parish,
Louisiana will be completed during the fourth quarter of 1997 and drilling of
the first well is scheduled for early 1998.
Over the last several years, the Rocky Mountain region has lagged behind
the other regions in terms of drilling activity. However, exploration activity
in this area has been increasing recently and the Company has two wells
scheduled to be drilled in early 1998. Also, given the Company's significant
undeveloped leasehold position in Wyoming, increased activity in this area could
expose the Company to additional drilling opportunities. It is, however,
impossible to predict the ultimate impact, if any, of this increased activity.
The Company's newest focus area is the Hardeman Basin in North Texas.
During the third quarter of 1997, Key entered into an exploration joint venture
with Enserch Exploration, Inc. ("Enserch"). Under the terms of the agreement,
Enserch contributed its land and 3-D seismic database and Key agreed to drill at
least 20 wells on Enserch's acreage over the next two years. Key also purchased
an interest in and assumed operations of Enserch's producing wells in the same
area. Production in the Hardeman Basin is primarily oil. The Company has
opened a regional office in Dallas to coordinate exploration and production
efforts in this area.
The Company continues to review merger and acquisition opportunities when
they become known. Potential acquisitions or mergers with the economic and
strategic attributes necessary to facilitate the profitable growth of the
Company will be actively pursued.
The Company expects that cash on hand, net cash generated by operating
activities and amounts available under the credit facility will be adequate to
meet future liquidity needs under the current corporate policies. Management
believes that the overall source of funds available to Key will continue to be
sufficient to provide resources to meet the Company's exploration, development,
and acquisition objectives.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SAFE HARBOR PROVISION OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES
LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
This report contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements include, among
others, statements concerning the Company's outlook for the remainder of 1997
with regard to production levels, price realizations, expenditures for
exploration and development, plans for funding operations and capital
expenditures, and other statements of expectations, beliefs, future plans and
strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning
matters that are not historical facts. The forward-looking statements in this
-12-
report are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the statements.
These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, fluctuations
in the price the Company receives for its oil and gas production, reductions in
the quantity of oil and gas sold due to decreased industry-wide demand and/or
curtailments in production from specific properties due to mechanical, marketing
or other problems, operating and capital expenditures that are either
significantly higher or lower than anticipated because the actual cost of
identified projects varied from original estimates and/or from the number of
exploration and development opportunities being greater or fewer than currently
anticipated and increased financing costs due to a significant increase in
interest rates. These and other risks and uncertainties affecting the Company
are discussed in greater detail in this report and in other filings by the
Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
