                                  REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Coho Energy, Inc.:

         We have audited the accompanying statements of revenues and direct
operating expenses of the Amoco Property Acquisition (see Note 1) for the years
ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997 and for the nine months ended September
30, 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of the management of
Coho Energy, Inc. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

         We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the statements. An audit also includes assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

         In our opinion, such statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the revenues and direct operating expenses of the Amoco Property
Acquisition described in Note 1 for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and
1997 and for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                               AMOCO PROPERTY ACQUISITION

         NOTES TO STATEMENTS OF REVENUES AND DIRECT OPERATING EXPENSES

(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION -

         On December 18, 1997, Coho Energy, Inc. (the "Company"), through its
indirect wholly owned subsidiary Coho Oil & Gas, Inc. ("Coho Oil"), acquired
from Amoco Production Company ("Amoco") interests in certain crude oil and
natural gas properties (the "Amoco Property Acquisition") located in southern
Oklahoma for cash consideration of approximately $257.5 million and warrants to
purchase one million shares of common stock of the Company at $10.425 per share
for a period of five years. The acquired properties (the "Amoco Properties") are
in more than 25,000 gross acres concentrated in southern Oklahoma, including 14
major producing oil fields. Approximately $70 million of the acquisition cost is
attributable to unproved properties.

         Coho Oil is a wholly owned subsidiary of Coho Resources, Inc. ("Coho
Resources"), which is in turn a wholly owned subsidiary of Coho Energy, Inc.
Approximately $221 million of the acquisition was financed under Coho Resources'
existing bank credit facility and the remaining $36.5 million was funded from
working capital.

         The accompanying statements of revenues and direct operating expenses
include revenues and direct operating expenses for the acquired properties for
the periods such properties were owned by Amoco. Certain of the properties in
the Amoco Property Acquisition were acquired by Amoco in March 1997 and
therefore only the revenues and direct operating expenses from March 1, 1997
through December 31, 1997 are included in such statements. See Note 2 for pro
forma information.

         The accompanying statements of revenues and direct operating expenses
do not include general and administrative expense, interest income or expense, a
provision for depreciation, depletion and amortization or any provision for
income taxes because the property interests acquired represent only a portion of
a business and the costs incurred by the sellers of the properties are not
necessarily indicative of the costs to be incurred by the Company.

         Historical financial information reflecting financial position, results
of operations and cash flows of the Amoco Property Acquisition is not presented
because all of the acquisition cost was assigned to the oil and gas property
interests. Accordingly, the historical statements of revenues and direct
operating expenses have been presented in lieu of the financial statements
required under Rule 3-05 of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X.

(2) ACQUISITION OF ADDITIONAL INTERESTS IN THE AMOCO PROPERTIES

         In March 1997, Amoco acquired interests in certain southern Oklahoma
crude oil and natural gas properties which were subsequently sold to the Company
in December 1997 in the Amoco Property Acquisition transaction discussed above.
The revenues and direct operating expenses for such properties for the period
from March 1, 1997 through December 31, 1997 are included in the audited
statements of revenues and direct operating expenses for the Amoco Property
Acquisition.

(3) SUPPLEMENTAL OIL AND GAS RESERVE INFORMATION (UNAUDITED) -

Estimated Quantities of Proved Oil and Gas Reserves

         The estimates of proved oil and gas reserves utilized in the
preparation of the financial statements were estimated by independent petroleum
engineers in accordance with guidelines established by the Securities and
Exchange Commission and the Financial Accounting Standards Board, which require
that reserve reports be prepared under existing economic and operating
conditions. The Company emphasizes that reserve estimates of new discoveries or
undeveloped properties are more imprecise than those of producing oil and gas
properties. Accordingly, these estimates are expected to change as future
information becomes available.

PROVED OIL AND GAS RESERVES AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1997:

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows Relating to Proved Oil
and Gas Reserves

      The following standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows was
computed in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission and Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 69
using year-end prices and costs. Royalty deductions were based on laws,
regulations and contracts existing at the end of each period. No values are
given to unproved properties or to probable reserves that may be recovered from
proved properties.

      The inexactness associated with estimating reserve quantities, future
production and revenue streams and future development and production
expenditures, together with the assumptions applied in valuing future

derived are not considered to be an estimate of fair market value. The Company
therefore cautions against its simplistic use.

         The accompanying Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
have been prepared by recording pro forma adjustments to the historical
consolidated financial statements of Coho Energy, Inc. and subsidiaries (the
"Company"). The Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September
30, 1997 has been prepared as if the Amoco Property Acquisition and the
Offerings discussed in Note 1 were consummated on September 30, 1997. The Pro
Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the year ended December
31, 1996 and for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 have been prepared as
if the Amoco Property Acquisition was consummated immediately prior to January
1, 1996 and January 1, 1997, respectively.

         The Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are not
necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations that
would have occurred had the transaction been effected on the assumed dates.
Additionally, future results may vary significantly from the results reflected
in the Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings due to normal
production declines, changes in oil and gas prices, future transactions and
other factors. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's
audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996 and
the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes
included in the Company's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997.

Company interests in certain crude oil and natural gas properties (the "Amoco
Property Acquisition") located in southern Oklahoma for cash consideration of
approximately $257.5 million and warrants to purchase one million shares of
common stock of the Company at $10.425 per share for a period of five years. The
acquired properties are in more than 25,000 gross acres concentrated in southern
Oklahoma, including 14 major producing oil fields. Approximately $70 million of
the acquisition cost is attributable to unproved properties.

         On October 3, 1997, the Company issued 5 million shares of common stock
at $10.50 per share and issued $150 million of 8 7/8% senior subordinated notes
due 2007 pursuant to two public offerings (the "Offerings") with combined net
proceeds of approximately $193.7 million. The Company repaid the outstanding
borrowings of $144.8 million under its existing bank credit facility from the
net proceeds. $36.5 million of the remaining net proceeds and $221 million of
new borrowings under the existing bank credit facility were used to finance the
Amoco Property Acquisition.

         The accompanying Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at
September 30, 1997, has been prepared assuming the Amoco Property Acquisition
and the Offerings had been consummated on September 30, 1997. The Pro Forma
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the year ended December 31,
1996 and the nine months ended September 30, 1997, have been prepared assuming
the Company had consummated the Amoco Property Acquisition immediately prior to
each of the periods presented. Certain of the properties acquired in the Amoco
Property Acquisition were acquired by Amoco in March 1997. The Pro Forma
Statements of Earnings for both periods include the revenues and direct
operating expenses for the periods prior to Amoco's ownership of such
properties.

         The Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings are not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations had the Amoco Property
Acquisition occurred on the assumed dates.

(2) PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS -

         Pro forma adjustments necessary to adjust the Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheet and Statements of Earnings are as follows:

(a)       To record the increase in cash, the increase in debt issue costs in
          other noncurrent assets, the net increase in long term debt and the
          increase in equity related to the Offerings.

(b)       To record the Amoco Property Acquisition, including approximately $1.9
          million of transaction costs and $5 million of assumed liabilities.
          The existing bank credit facility was used to finance $221 million of
          the purchase price and the remaining purchase price of $36.5 million,
          as well as transaction costs, was funded from working capital. The
          estimated fair market value for the warrants was $3.4 million.

(c)       To record revenues and direct operating expenses of the Amoco Property
          Acquisition, based on the statements of revenues and direct operating
          expenses for the year ended December 31, 1996 and for the nine months
          ended September 30, 1997, as adjusted to include the revenues and
          direct operating expenses attributable to the properties acquired by
          Amoco in March 1997 for periods prior to Amoco's ownership of such
          properties. See Note 2 of the Statements of Revenues and Direct
          Operating Expenses.

          attributable to the Amoco Property Acquisition.

(e)       To record estimated depreciation and depletion expense attributable to

          applied to the net cost of the properties acquired (excluding $70
          million related to unproved properties) plus future development costs
          and abandonment costs associated with proved reserves.

(f)       To record interest expense attributable to $221 million of bank debt
          used to finance the Amoco Property Acquisition. Interest expense is
          based upon the weighted average interest rate incurred by the Company
          under its existing credit facility assuming the acquisition had been
          funded at January 1 of each period.

(g)       To record the tax effect of adjustments (c), (d), (e) and (f) above.
