Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(1) The accompanying unaudited financial statements for the three-month
periods ended May 31, 1997 and 1998 reflect, in the opinion of
management, all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring
nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such
periods.
(2) The foregoing financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the annual financial statements and accompanying notes for the fiscal
year ended February 28, 1998.
(3) Comprehensive Income - In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." This
statement establishes standards for reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components. Components of comprehensive
income are net income and all other nonowner changes in equity such as
the change in the cumulative translation adjustment. This statement
requires that an enterprise: (a) classify items of other comprehensive
income by their nature in a financial statement and (b) display the
accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from
retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section
of a balance sheet. SFAS No. 130 is effective for financial statements
issued for periods beginning after December 15, 1997, which for the
Company is the three months ended - May 31, 1998. Presentation of
comprehensive income for earlier periods provided for comparative
purposes is required and has been presented in these financial
statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with Items 6 and 7
of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended February
28, 1998 and the Notes to Condensed Financial Statements contained in this
report.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company had net income of $870,447 ($.20 per share) in the three months
ended May 31, 1998 compared to net income of $153,936 ($.03 per share) during
the three months ended May 31, 1997. The reason for the increase in net income
and the Company's profitability during the 1998 period was an approximate
$1,504,100 gain realized on the sale of the Company's Limestone County, Texas
gas property to Mitchell Energy Corporation.
Oil and gas revenues declined approximately $493,300 (54.9%) in the three
months ended May 31, 1998 due to the absence of any production from the
Limestone County, Texas gas property which was sold effective as of the first
day of the period, a decline in production from the Company's Madison County,
Texas oil property and a substantial decline in the Company's average oil price
received. The Limestone County, Texas gas property contributed approximately
$165,300 to revenues during the three months ended May 31, 1997 but none in the
1998 period. Revenues from the Company's Madison County, Texas property
decreased approximately $309,900 during the 1998 period. The Company produced
approximately 7,900 fewer barrels of oil from the property in the 1998 period,
primarily due to the decision of the operator of the property to restrict
production voluntarily as a result of low oil prices. The average oil price
received by the Company for the property's production declined approximately
$6.89 per barrel (35.4%) from that received in the 1997 period. Overall, the
Company's average oil price received fell approximately $6.74 per barrel
(34.9%). The Company is uncertain when oil prices may recover but believes it is
unlikely to occur during the Company's current fiscal quarter ending August 31,
1998.
Gravel revenues increased approximately $7,100 (69.0%) in the 1998 period
due to a higher level of gravel sales from the Company's Colorado property.
Rentals received by the Company from the property were the same in both periods.
The expenses of the Company's oil and gas operations declined approximately
$201,800 (35.6%) in the three months ended
5
8
May 31, 1998 as lower dry hole costs, depletion and depreciation expense and
production taxes more than offset higher lease operating and geological and
geophysical expenses and increased ad valorem taxes. Dry hole costs declined
approximately $135,500 (79.0%) as the Company participated in only one gross
(.17 net) unsuccessful exploratory well in the 1998 period as compared to two
gross (.45 net) such wells in the 1997 period. In addition, the total cost
attributable to the Company's interest in the 1998 dry hole was substantially
less than the cost of its interests in the 1997 dry holes. Depletion and
depreciation expense declined approximately $86,300 (39.2%) and production taxes
fell approximately $18,300 (46.8%) in the 1998 period due to the absence of any
such expense and taxes from the Company's Limestone County, Texas gas property
sold effective as of the start of the period and lower oil and gas revenues
received from the remainder of the Company's properties. The higher lease
operating expense and ad valorem taxes in the 1998 period were mainly associated
with the Company's Madison County, Texas oil property.
The expenses of the Company's coal and gravel operations increased
approximately $5,500 in the three months ended May 31, 1998 primarily due to
higher engineering expense associated with reclamation of a portion of the land
in the coal permit area. Real estate development expense increased approximately
$19,700 in the 1998 period. Heavy equipment repair expense comprised
approximately $12,700 of the total increase, but most other categories of such
expense also increased due to the higher level of activity in the 1998 period on
the golf course the Company is building on approximately 170 acres of the 2,020
acres of land owned by it in La Plata County, Colorado.
General and administrative expense increased approximately $13,300 in the
1998 period primarily due to a difference in the timing of the payment of
approximately $12,200 in fees for renewing letters of credit supporting land
reclamation bonds required for the Company's coal and gravel permits in
Colorado. Higher computer and miscellaneous expenses in the 1998 period were
offset by lower independent petroleum engineering firm and tax accounting
expenses.
The Company received approximately $2,990,400 in proceeds from the sale of
its Limestone County, Texas gas property. The approximate $1,504,100 gain
realized on such sale, which is included in other income (expense) in the
Company's Condensed Statements of Operations, was the reason for the increase in
net income and the Company's profitability in the three months ended May 31,
1998 as the Company incurred an approximate $139,300 loss from operations during
such period. Interest and dividend income declined approximately $9,200 (18.1%)
6
9
in the 1998 period due to the lower level of funds the Company had invested
compared to the 1997 period. The effect of the decline in such income was
partially offset by the absence of any interest expense for the Company in the
1998 period. The Company incurred $3,607 of such expense in the 1997 period.
Other income (expense), net declined approximately $97,700 in the 1998 period
due to an approximate $106,800 writedown of the carrying value of the Company's
investment in an equity security, which was made following a further decline in
the fair value of the security from February 28, 1998.
The Company's provision for income taxes increased approximately $351,700
in the 1998 period due to the higher level of pre-tax income resulting from the
sale of the Limestone County, Texas property.
The Company's weighted average shares outstanding declined approximately
13.0% during the three months ended May 31, 1998 as a result of share purchases
made by the Company from June 1, 1997 through May 31, 1998. Purchases during
that time frame totaled 149,800 shares, 20,000 of which were made from
affiliates. The balance of the shares purchased by the Company was from
unaffiliated shareholders.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
During the first quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company's investing activities
and financing activities (solely purchases of the Company's common stock) used
approximately $673,800 and $102,700 in funds, respectively. The Company's
operating activities provided approximately $55,400 in funds, resulting in a net
decrease in cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period of approximately
$721,100. Principal investing activities using funds during the quarter were
additions to the Company's oil and gas properties and real estate held for
development. At May 31, 1998, the Company had no indebtedness and held
investment securities aggregating approximately $1,583,300.
The Company expects to fund its contemplated operations during the
remainder of fiscal 1999 from a combination of the cash flow from its oil and
gas properties and sales or maturities of a portion of its investment securities
available for sale or margin account borrowings against their value.
