PART I
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
The information required by this Item 1 appears on pages 11 through 13
of this Report, and is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
In the fourth quarter of 1993, the Registrant acquired its wholly owned
subsidiary, Daugherty Petroleum, Inc. ("DPI"). Since the acquisition, the
Registrant has been aggressively (1) acquiring natural gas and oil properties in
southeastern and western Kentucky, (2) expanding its natural gas production
through joint ventures and drilling programs for its own account, and (3)
diversifying its revenue and asset base to include other segments of the oil and
gas industry.
The Company has traditionally realized revenues from its oil and gas
operations. For the three month quarter ending March 31, 1997, the Registrant
drilled four natural gas wells and completed one natural gas well. This is in
contrast to the same period of 1996 when the Registrant drilled one natural gas
well and completed one natural gas well. The drilling performed in the first
quarter of 1997 is primarily related to a joint venture on the Registrant's
Farmout acreage from Equitable Resources Energy Corporation. Daugherty
Petroleum's interest in four wells on this tract was financed by a subsidiary of
Enron Capital & Trade Resources, Inc. In addition, DPI drilled and completed one
well in the first quarter of 1997 for a joint venture with Dominion Resources,
Inc. The wells drilled with Dominion Resources were drilled pursuant to a 15
well drilling program signed in the second quarter of 1995. As of the end of the
first quarter of 1997, thirteen wells have been drilled pursuant to this
contract. With the acquisition of Red River Hardwoods, Inc., the Company has
begun to see revenues from Red River's Lumber activities. Lumber products
generated by Red River are furniture dimension parts, architectural moulding
and hardwood flooring.
LIQUIDITY
The Company continues to acquire natural gas and oil properties in
southeastern and western Kentucky. DPI has provided the Company with a
diversified asset base which includes natural resources other than its
prospective gold and silver mining properties and has also increased the
Company's asset base. During 1996, management continued to invest in areas it
deemed critical in developing an infrastructure suitable to support its future
growth. These areas included ongoing expenses in management, professional and
operational personnel and other expenses deemed necessary to position the
Company for future acquisitions and financing. Also, on November 17, 1996, DPI
acquired 80% interest in Red River Hardwoods, Inc., a dimensional hardwood
manufacturing company.
Historically, the Company's revenues have been from its interests in
the producing natural gas and oil wells it operates and owns interest in and
from its activities as "turnkey driller" and operator for various drilling
programs in its geographic area. In 1996, DPI reduced its dependence on
activities as "turnkey driller" for private investors and instead concentrated
on joint ventures with industry partners. During the first quarter of 1997,
approximately 23% of the Company's revenues were
2
3
derived from joint venture drilling. Natural gas and oil operations and revenues
accounted for 12% of the revenues. The Company has begun to see additional
revenues from Red River's activities. Manufacturing sales related to Red River
accounted for 65% of the revenues.
The Company plans to drill 15 wells during 1997 and will attempt to
earn interests ranging from 12.5% to 50% interest in each well it drills.
During 1996, the Company held negotiations with several potential
financial institutions and investors with the intent of securing financing
necessary to provide credit facilities for the Company to support existing and
future capital requirements. In December, 1996, DPI signed a loan agreement with
a subsidiary of Enron Capital and Trade Resources, Inc., in the amount of
$340,000 providing financing for one well to be acquired and 50% of the drilling
and completion costs of four natural gas wells. As of March 31, 1997, DPI had
drawn $150,000 on the credit line. It is expected that, in addition to this
credit facility, DPI will acquire additional loans to develop its existing
natural gas leasehold interests. The Company will see increased natural gas
revenue when pipeline facilities are installed to allow gas flow from eleven
wells drilled that have not been connected to the gas gathering system.
Working capital for the period ending March 31, 1997, was a negative
$529,729 when compared to the same period in 1996, when working capital was a
negative $422,665.
During the first quarter of 1997, and compared to the same period in
1996, the major changes in the composition of the Company's current assets were:
cash balances increased $27,846 from $151,818 to $179,664; accounts receivable
balances increased $199,069 from $545,979 to $745,048; and inventories increased
$508,225 from $79,542 to $587,767. Other current assets such as prepaids and
notes receivable decreased $466,711 from $499,351 to $32,640, primarily due to
the acquisition of Red River Hardwoods and the resulting consolidation of Red
River's and Daugherty Petroleum's financial statements. The increase in
inventory balances was a result of the Company's acquisition of Red River during
the period. Overall, current assets increased by $268,429 to $1,545,119.
Current liabilities for the period was $2,074,848 compared to
$1,699,355 for the first quarter of 1996. The additional long term debt
currently payable relating to the acquisition of Red River Hardwoods accounted
for $259,967 of the increase.
While management believes that the cash flow resulting in its operating
revenues will contribute significantly to its short-term financial commitments
and operating costs, its has developed a plan in 1997 to meet its financial
obligations. The plan includes:
- - Acquisition of revenue producing properties. In March, 1996, DPI acquired
working interests in 26 oil wells and six water injection wells which
contributed a net increase in revenues of $85,768 during 1996. DPI has made
offers for two natural gas properties which include producing gas wells
with developmental acreage for drilling additional wells.
- - Sale of non revenue producing oil properties. The Company has entered
negotiations for the sale of Niagara Oil, Inc. When successfully completed,
this transaction will result in a reduction of debt service. In addition,
the purchaser has agreed to contract with Daugherty Petroleum for the
development, enhancement, and operation of these wells.
- - Sale of real estate. The Company owns a maintenance shop in Williamsburg,
Kentucky. Management feels that the Company can be better served by selling
this facility and leasing more
3
4
suitable facilities closer to the Company's gas field in Knox County,
Kentucky. The sale of this facility will result in the reduction of debt by
$24,000, and debt service of $5,400 per year.
- - Installation of additional natural gas gathering system. The Company plans
to expand its natural gas pipeline by 45,000 feet in 1997. The extension
will allow for substantially more natural gas to be transported to market.
- - Addition funding for Red River Hardwoods, Inc. The Company has negotiated
additional inventory loans that will allow Red River to increase its
inventory, therefore, increasing its revenues.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the period ending March 31, 1997, the Company's gross revenues
increased to $1,281,087 from $407,093 for the same period in 1996. The Company
experienced a net loss of $142,737 in this period compared to a net loss of
$143,243 in the same period of 1996.
The Company's gross revenues were derived from drilling contract
revenues of $289,386 (23%); natural gas and oil operations and production
revenues of $155,867 (12%); and lumber sales and product manufacturing revenues
of $835,703 (65%).
The increase in gross revenues was attributable primarily to the
manufacturing revenues related to Red River Hardwoods. Contract revenues from
drilling activities increased by $250,837 from $38,549 in the first quarter of
1996 to $289,386 in the first quarter of 1997.
During the first quarter of 1997, total direct costs increased by
$712,447 to $1,065,188 compared to $352,741 in the first quarter of 1996. Direct
costs included Red River Hardwoods' expenses and drilling costs of four natural
gas wells. Depreciation and amortization increased by $12,694 to $69,343
primarily due to the acquisition of Red River Hardwoods.
The Company believes there are several factors that will increase
revenues for 1997. First, the prices received for natural gas produced are up
significantly over 1996's overall average price. Secondly, the natural gas
gathering system expansion planned for 1997 will dramatically increase Daugherty
Petroleum's ability to transport natural gas to the market. Thirdly, the
acquisition of Red River Hardwoods expands the Company's exploitation of natural
resources to hardwoods in Kentucky.
