AMERAC ENERGY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
Amerac Energy Corporation, ("Amerac" or the "Company") was formed in
1969 and is headquartered in Houston, Texas. The Company is engaged in the
acquisition, exploration, development and enhancement of oil and gas
properties in the United States.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The results of operations for the interim periods shown in this
report are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the
year. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial
statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the
financial position as of June 30, 1996, and the results of operations for
the three and six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1996, and cash flow for
the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1996. These financial statements and
the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.
Net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income
or loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding. In determining the net income (loss)
attributable per share, the Company decreased income by the preferred stock
dividend and accretion of discount. The stock options and convertible debts
are either not material or are anti-dilutive and were not included in the
average shares outstanding during the periods presented.
From 1991 until 1996, the Company has accounted for its investment
in Petroleum Financial Inc. ("PFI") on the cost method of accounting. PFI
performs accounting, tax, administrative, computer operations and
shareholder relations activities for Amerac. In July 1995, the Company's
interest in PFI increased from 15% to 26%; thus, commencing in 1996, the
Company began accounting for its investment in PFI on the equity method of
accounting.
Certain amounts in the 1995 comparable data have been reclassified
for consistency with the presentation of 1996 data.
3. INDEBTEDNESS
On August 15, 1996, the Company amended its revolving line of credit
agreement with Bank One, Texas National Association ("Bank Credit
Agreement"). The amendment, among other things, increases the Company's
line of credit from $15 million to $30 million and extended the due date to
May 31, 1998. In addition, the Company also executed a $1 million bridge
loan agreement ("Bridge Loan") that the Company will use to fund
acquisitions and development expenditures. The Bridge Loan must be repaid
on the earlier of the date of receipt of any funds from any equity
offerings or February 16, 1997. Both of these agreements are secured by all
of the Company's oil and gas properties, and contain various covenants,
which may, if not met, cause the Company to be in default or reduce its
access to additional borrowings. At August 1, 1996, $9.3 million was
outstanding under the Bank Credit Agreement with a borrowing base of $9.7
million and a mandatory reduction of $250,000 each month. The Bank Credit
Agreement bears interest at the Bank One Texas Base Rate plus three quarter
percent (9%) at June 30, 1996, and the Bridge Loan bears interest at the
Bank One Texas Base Rate plus two and one half percent.
4. SHAREHOLDER'S EQUITY
COMMON STOCK
At the Company's annual meeting of shareholders on July 11, 1996,
the shareholders approved an amendment to convert each share of $4.00
Senior Preferred Stock (the "Senior Preferred") outstanding to
6
AMERAC ENERGY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS --(CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
nine (9) shares of Common Stock, thus eliminating the Senior Preferred
stock. The shareholders also approved an amendment to the Certificate of
Incorporation that increased the authorized Common Stock to 100 million
shares. In June 1996 the Company completed a private sale of approximately
1.08 million restricted shares of Common Stock at an average price of $.34
per share. As a result, the total outstanding shares of Common Stock were
increased to 41,996,744 at July 31, 1996.
There is no material impact on Earnings Per Share as a result of the
conversion of the Senior Preferred stock
5. ACQUISITION ACTIVITIES
Effective January 1, 1996, the Company acquired the Common Stock of
Fremont Energy Corporation ("Fremont"), an Oklahoma-based oil and gas
company, for $7 million paid in cash and 3.3 million shares of Common Stock
of the Company. Fremont has 131 wells located predominately in central
Oklahoma and Kansas concentrated in three major fields. Fremont's estimated
net proved reserves at December 31, 1995, totaled approximately 13.4
billion cubic feet equivalent ("BCFE").
The pro forma affect of the Fremont acquisition would not have had a
material impact on the results of operations for the six months ended June
30, 1996. The pro forma impact of the Fremont acquisition, the 1995 Cosden
acquisition, and the December 1995 sale of N.W. Arapahoe, assuming the
transactions had occurred at January 1, 1995, would have been as follows
for the six month ended June 30, 1995.

-------------
Revenues $ 2,856,000
Net Loss $ (267,000)
Net Loss applicable to Common Share Holders $ (660,000)
Net Loss per share $ (.03)
The Company acquired on August 16, 1996, a majority interest in
sixteen gas wells in the Texan Gardens Field, located in Hidalgo County,
Texas. The field, situated in the heart of the Vicksburg Trend of the Texas
Gulf Coast region, produces gas from multiple sands between depths of 7,700
feet to 9,400 feet. The Company's average working interest in these
properties will approximate 58%, with a net revenue interest of
approximately 40%. Based on a March 1, 1996 effective date, the company
estimates that proved reserves associated with this $1.9 million
acquisition total 4.4 BCFE, of which seventy percent are behind pipe.
The Company acquired on August 19, 1996, a majority interest in 22
producing wells on the McLemore-Drummonds Ranch and the Sloan X's Ranch in
Shackelford, Stephens, Throckmorton, and Haskell Counties of Central Texas
(The "Throckmorton" acquisition). Production in this acreage is
predominantly from the Mississippian at approximately 4,800 feet and the
Caddo at approximately 2,800 feet. Amerac's working interest in the
McLemore-Drummonds Ranch and the Sloan X's Ranch will approximate 76% and
82%, respectively. The net revenue interests in the two ranches will be 57%
and 65%, respectively. Based on a June 1, 1996 effective date, the company
estimates that proved reserves associated with this $1.1 million
acquisition are estimated to total 224,700 barrels of oil equivalent
("BOE"), of which one hundred percent are producing.
The Company also agreed in July 1996 to acquire a producing lease on
the east flank of the Cosden Field for approximately $190,000 (The "Cosden"
acquisition). Based on a July 1, 1996 effective date the Company estimates
the proved reserves associated with this acquisition total 679 MMCFE. In
addition to the production associated with a deep well on this new lease,
the leasehold interests that come with the acquisition include rights to a
behind pipe zone in a currently inactive well already owned by the Company.
After closing this new acquisition, the Company intends to recomplete this
inactive well in the behind pipe zone. Closing is scheduled for August
1996, however, there is no assurance that this acquisition will close.
All acquisitions are accounted for under purchase accounting and the
results of their operations will be consolidated from the date of the
respective consummation.

6. CONTINGENCIES
The Shurly Ranch Properties were the subject of litigation related
to the proper settlement of take-or-pay monies received by the Company from
El Paso Natural Gas Company ("El Paso"). The lower courts ruled in favor of
the Company, but this decision was appealed by El Paso to the Texas Supreme
Court. The Texas Supreme Court denied the appeal on December 9, 1993;
however, El Paso had 30 days to request a rehearing on the issue, which they
did not do. Therefore, on January 8, 1994, the aforementioned litigation was
finalized. The Company is obligated under the settlement agreement to allow
El Paso to recover the prepayment by delivering 65% of the monthly gas
production volumes at an imputed price of $3.25 per MMBTU through February
1997. Beginning in March 1997, the Company has the option of 1) continuing
to deliver gas until it is unable to meet the minimum delivery requirement
or 2) pay the remaining unrecovered balance, not to exceed $360,000. Due to
the uncertainty of El Paso's gas requirements, the Company has reviewed, in
conjunction with the annual year end reserve analysis prepared by an
independent petroleum engineering firm, the current economic reserve life
and production capabilities of the properties to determine their ability to
deliver the volumes necessary to satisfy the remaining prepayment. The
Company believes that its current contract obligation of $565,000 is
sufficient to cover any remaining obligation under the settlement agreement
at June 30, 1996. The Company has classified the maximum unrecovered balance
of $360,000 as a current obligation as of June 30, 1996.
The Company is subject to various contingencies which arise
primarily from interpretation of federal and state laws, and regulations
affecting the oil and gas industry. Such contingencies include differing
interpretations as to the prices at which oil and gas sales may be made, the
prices at which royalty owners may be paid for production from their leases
and other matters. Although management believes it has complied with the
various laws and regulations, administrative rulings and interpretations
thereof, adjustment could be required as new interpretations and regulations
are issued. In addition, production rates, marketing and environmental
matters are subject to regulation by various federal and state agencies.

AMERAC ENERGY CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
STRATEGY
The Company focuses on acquisitions where a substantial portion of
the value is in proved developed producing reserves which are currently
generating cash flow. Management is relatively impartial as to the
acquisition of gas versus oil. Although management would prefer
operatorship of the properties, the Company does not pass up any
opportunities for that reason. At this point, the Company has not
restricted itself to seeking acquisitions in specific geographical regions.
Along with the acquisition of properties, the Company looks for
ways to exploit existing and acquired reserves by increasing production
rates, accelerating reserve recoveries and, improving and extending the
economic viability of the properties. Exploitation activities may include
workovers, recompletions, new stimulation technology, development drilling,
horizontal drilling, pressure maintenance projects, and other methods of
enhanced recovery. Although the Company does not participate in rank
exploration, it may participate in exploratory drilling on leases associated
with existing or acquired producing properties.
While the Company is actively pursuing these avenues, there can be
no assurance that it will have successful results in its acquisition,
development, exploitation and exploration efforts. There is a tremendous
amount of competition in the industry and the prices paid for in-place
reserves make it difficult to achieve attractive rates of return.
ACQUISITION ACTIVITIES
The Company has closed three acquisitions in 1996 and one
acquisition is pending. See note 5.
DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES
During the first half of 1996 the Company drilled six Company-
operated development wells and also participated in the installation of two
five-well pilot patterns in the Company's Sacatosa Waterflood Project. Five
of the development wells were in West Central Texas and one was in Oklahoma.
The Texas wells include three in the North Blackwell Field and two wells in
the Truby Field. The Oklahoma well is in the Alamo South Field. All six
development wells and the ten wells in Sacatosa (six new wells plus four re-
entries) were on properties acquired by the Company since October 1994.
These wells represent the initial phase of the Company's continuing strategy
of enhancing its acquisitions through exploitation.
The South Timbalier Block 198 Field is located in Federal waters
offshore Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico. Amerac has a working interest of
23.1% and a net revenue interest of 19.2% in this field. During the third
quarter of 1995, the A-3 and A-5 wells were successfully recompleted. Since
its recompletion, the A-3 well has produced at a sustained rate of 18 MMCF
plus 450 BBL of condensate per day. The A-5 well, which produced at a rate
of 1.5 MMCF per day following the recompletion, has produced at a rate of
3.1 MMCF per day since being put on compression in June 1996. These wells
are the only current producers on the platform. An unsuccessful
recompletion was attempted in July 1996 in the currently inactive A-2 well,
which watered out in the first quarter of 1996 after producing at an average
rate of 1.4 MMCF per day for the quarter.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Six Months Ended June 30, 1995 compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 1996
Oil and gas revenues increased from $1.8 million in the first six
months of 1995 to $4.8 million during the comparable period in 1996 as a
result of an increase in oil and gas production and prices. Gas production
for the six months increased from approximately 3.3 Mmcf per day in the
first six months of 1995 to approximately 6.8 Mmcf per day for the
comparable period in 1996, oil production increased from approximately 312
barrels per day to 500 barrels per day, respectively, primarily as a result
of the acquisitions. The average prices received for production increased
for oil from $16.75 per Bbl during the first
9
AMERAC ENERGY CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS --(CONTINUED)
six months of 1995 to $19.47 per Bbl during the comparable period in 1996
and gas prices increased from an average of $1.61 per Mcf for the first six
months of 1995 production to an average of $2.35 per Mcf for the first six
months of 1996 production.
Lease operating expenses increased from $531,000 in the first six
months of 1995 to $980,000 for the comparable period in 1996 as a result of
the additional wells added through the acquisitions and development
drilling. Depreciation and amortization expense also increased from
$525,000 during the first six months of 1995 to $994,000 for the comparable
period in 1996 as a result of an increase in asset growth from acquisition
and production, and a decline in gas reserves from the Company's offshore
properties.
Administrative expenses increased from $731,000 for the first six
months of 1995 to $1.1 million for the comparable period in 1996 due to the
acquisition activities and related increases in overhead.
Interest expense increased from $102,000 in the first six months
of 1995 to $417,000 for the comparable period in 1996 as a result of the
incurrance of additional bank indebtedness to fund acquisitions and
development drilling.
Three Months Ended June 30, 1995 compared with Three Months Ended June 30,
1996
Oil and gas revenues increased from $1 million in the second
quarter of 1995 to $2.6 million during the comparable period in 1996 as a
result of an increase in oil and gas production and prices. Gas production
for the three months increased from approximately 3.8 Mmcf per day in the
second quarter of 1995 to approximately 6.9 Mmcf per day for the comparable
period in 1996, oil production increased from approximately 295 barrels per
day to 575 barrels per day, respectively, primarily as a result of the
acquisitions. The average prices received for production increased for oil
from $17.99 per Bbl during the second quarter of 1995 to $20.67 per Bbl
during the comparable period in 1996 and gas prices increased from an
average of $1.50 per Mcf for the second quarter of 1995 production to an
average of $2.25 per Mcf for the second quarter of 1996 production.
Lease operating expenses increased from $331,000 in the second
quarter of 1995 to $500,000 in the comparable period in 1996 as a result of
the additional wells added through the acquisitions and development
drilling. Depreciation and amortization expense also increased from
$250,000 during the second quarter of 1995 to $479,000 for the comparable
period in 1996 as a result of an increase in asset growth from acquisition
and production, and a decline in gas reserves from the Company's offshore
properties.
Administrative expenses increased from $386,000 for the second
quarter of 1995 to $699,000 for the comparable period in 1996 due to the
acquisiton activities and related increases in overhead.
Interest expense increased from $47,000 in the second quarter of
1995 to $217,000 for the comparable period in 1996 as a result of the
incurrance of additional bank indebtedness to fund acquisitions and
development drilling.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has improved its overall financial condition in the
last three years through restructuring its equity and its financing
capabilities with its bank. The Company however, must continually seek
additional sources of financing in order to support its acquisition and
exploitation activities. The Company, as a result of its acquisition
activities, has improved the overall reserve-to-production ratio of its
properties from 2.8 years to 6.9 years at June 30, 1996. The Company
financed these acquisitions, including the Fremont acquisition, through the
use of working capital, bank borrowings and equity. The Company has
financed the acquisition of Texan Gardens and Throckmorton and expects to
finance the acquisition of Cosden

with increased bank borrowings based on increase in its the enhanced reserve
base resulting from such acquisitions and the Bridge Loan. The Company
currently plans to utilize internally generated cash flows and bank
financing to support future acquisitions together with other types of
financing, which may be more expensive, such as mezzanine, production
payments and additional equity financing. However, there is no assurance
that the Company will be successful in obtaining such additional financing.
In June 1996 the Company completed a private sale of approximately 1.08
million restricted shares of Common Stock at an average price of $.34 per
share. At August 1, 1996, the Company has essentially fully utilized its
bank financing capabilities and, therefore, future bank borrowings will be
limited by its additions to its borrowing base and Bridge Loan. The Company
has revised its Bank Credit Agreement (see note 3).
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In March 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets for the Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of"
("SFAS 121"), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1995. Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS 121 which
requires that long-lived assets (i.e., property, plant and equipment) held
and used by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the net book value of the asset may not be
recoverable. The Company did not have a material impact upon adoption of
SFAS 121 in the first quarter of 1996.
