SEE NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. 6 VAALCO ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 (UNAUDITED) 1. UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The consolidated financial statements of VAALCO Energy, Inc. and Subsidiaries (collectively, "VAALCO" or the "Company"), included herein are unaudited, but include all adjustments which the Company deems necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position and results of operations for the interim period. Such results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The Balance Sheet at December 31, 1996 has been taken from the audited financial statements at that date. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1996. 2. CURRENT DEVELOPMENTS In July 1997, the Company completed a private placement of four million shares of common stock. Certain selling shareholders accounted for 500,000 of the private placement shares. The private placement resulted in $3.2 million net proceeds to the Company. Concurrent with the private placement of equity, the Company redeemed all of the issued and outstanding shares of its 10% Cumulative Series A Preferred Stock. Payment of the redemption price and payment of accrued and unpaid dividends were satisfied by the issuance of an aggregate of 2,740,663 shares of Common Stock. Also, in July 1997, the Company amended its Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of shares of Common Stock it is authorized to issue. As a result of such amendment, the Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock of which 15,466,527 shares were issued and outstanding on August 11, 1997. Effective August 1, 1997, Mr. Robert L. Gerry, III was elected Chairman of the Board of the Company. Mr. Gerry was previously vice chairman of Nuevo Energy Company. Mr. Gerry will also serve as the Company's Chief Executive Officer. Mr. C. W. Alcorn resigned as Chairman of the Board but will remain a director of the Company. During 1997, the Company completed the restructuring of its international assets. Certain marketable securities held by the Company in Alcorn Petroleum and Minerals Corporation ("APMC"), a publicly listed Philippines company were sold for a gain of $0.7 million. Proceeds of $3.4 million were used to retire debt. In addition, the Company sold the balance of its assets in India, consisting of a 4% net profit interest in the PY-3 Field, and a 20% working interest in the Gulf of Cambay Block CB-OS/1. The assets were sold to Hardy Oil & Gas (U.K.) Ltd. for a gain of $2.5 million. 7 VAALCO ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 (UNAUDITED) In the Philippines, the Company announced a farmout in the fourth quarter of 1996 which will result in a $7.0 million 3-D seismic survey program over acreage held by the Company. The seismic acquisition commenced in February 1997 and at July 31, 1997 was 67% completed. See "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations." On April 4, 1997, in Gabon, the Company executed the previously announced farm-in agreement with Western Atlas Afrique, Ltd. for the acquisition of seismic and drilling of a well on the Etame Contract. See "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations." 3. DEBT OBLIGATIONS In December 1996, the Company issued $0.6 in debt associated with the acquisition of certain properties in the Gulf of Mexico. The loan is secured by an assignment of revenue interests ranging from 45% to 65% in certain properties. The loan is recourse only to the assigned revenue interests, and is not guaranteed by the Company. The balance on the note at June 30, 1997 was $0.2 million. The Company retired certain debt of its Philippines subsidiaries in April 1997. EARNINGS PER SHARE In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 ("SFAS 128") "Earnings Per Share". SFAS 128 established standards for computing and presenting earnings per share ("EPS") and applies to entities with publicly held common stock or potential common stock. This statement simplifies the standards for computing EPS previously found in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15, "Earnings Per Share," and makes them comparable to international EPS standards. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997, including interim periods; earlier application is not permitted. This statement requires restatement of all prior-period EPS data presented. Considering the guidelines as prescribed by SFAS 128, management believes that the adoption of this statement does not have a material effect on EPS and thus pro forma EPS, as suggested for all interim and annual periods prior to required adoption, have been omitted. 8 VAALCO ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY Historically, the Company's primary source of capital resources has been from its production operations in the Philippines, asset sales and the issuance of debt. The Company continues to produce the Nido and Matinloc fields in the Philippines at approximately 675 BOPD. Through a diversification program undertaken by management, the Company acquired producing assets in the Gulf of Mexico and two interests in Gabon. The Company has also accumulated approximately 1,603 acres in the Wilcox trend of Goliad County, Texas. In order to execute the diversification program, the Company has, among other activities, been actively seeking farmout partners to progress the development of its prospects. In this regard, the Company has successfully entered into farmout agreements in one of its Gabon blocks and in its Philippines blocks in exchange for carried work programs. For the domestic acquisition program, the Company has relied on the private placement of equity and issuance of debt to raise capital for these acquisitions. A more detailed description of the Company's activities is described below. In July 1997, the Company completed a private placement of four million shares of common stock. Certain selling shareholders accounted for 500,000 of the private placement shares. The private placement resulted in $3.2 million net proceeds to the Company. Concurrent with the private placement of equity, the Company redeemed all of the issued and outstanding shares of its 10% Cumulative Series A Preferred Stock. Payment of the redemption price and payment of accrued and unpaid dividends were satisfied by the issuance of an aggregate of 2,740,663 shares of Common Stock. Also, in July 1997, the Company amended its Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of shares of Common Stock it is authorized to issue. As a result of such amendment, the Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock of which 15,466,527 shares were issued and outstanding on August 11, 1997. United States In December 1996, the Company issued $618,000 in debt associated with the acquisition of certain properties in the Gulf of Mexico. The loan is secured by an assignment of revenue interests in certain of the properties. The loan is recourse only to the assigned revenue interests, and is not guaranteed by the Company. The balance of the note as of June 30, 1997 was $199,000. The Gulf of Mexico properties consist of interests in seven offshore fields in ten lease blocks. Four of the platforms in three of the fields, High Island blocks A-313, A-314 and A-280, are being operated by VAALCO. The balance of the package consists of non-operated interests in the West Cameron, Vermilion and Ship Shoal areas of the Gulf of Mexico. No significant capital expenditures are anticipated in 1997 for these properties. In October 1994, the Company acquired a working interest in approximately 1,200 acres in Goliad County, Texas, in exchange for cash and warrants to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock, $.10 par value per share (the "Common Stock"). The warrants have a term of three years and will consist of the right to purchase 200,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share and 200,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, subject to the terms and conditions of the acquisition agreement. A working interest in an additional 403 acres was acquired during 1996. The Company has an average 76% net revenue interest in the acreage and plans to analyze this property in 1997 for potential drilling locations. The three year lease has no drilling obligation requirements. Capital expenditures for 1997 will depend upon the outcome of analysis currently being done on the area. Gabon In July 1995, the Company acquired two blocks offshore Gabon, the Equata block and the Etame block. Both blocks contain previous discoveries that the Company is currently evaluating to determine their commercial viability. The Company and its partners have an obligation to the Government of Gabon to obtain approximately 1,500 line kilometers of seismic data and to drill one well on the Etame block during the three-year term of the license. In April 1997, the Company entered into an agreement with Western Atlas Afrique, Ltd., a subsidiary of Western Atlas, which will perform the required seismic surveys and pay a disproportionate 80% of the cost, up to $4.7 million, of the estimated $5.8 million (dry hole cost) commitment well to earn a 65% interest in the concession. The Company and its partners will be responsible for 20% of the cost (35% over $4.7 million) of the commitment well. VAALCO's share of the dry hole cost of the commitment well is estimated to be $0.7 million. At June 1997, the Company completed the above mentioned acquisition of seismic data over the property. These data are currently being processed to determine the best location for drilling a well. The Company has contracted a drilling rig for the first quarter of 1998 to drill the well. Philippines In October 1996, VAALCO and the other Service Contract No. 14 and Service Contract No. 6 consortium members entered into a farmout agreement wherein the farmee, an Australian company, is required to shoot a $7.0 million 3-D seismic program over the service contracts during 1997. The Australian farmee company will earn a 35% interest in the blocks for performing the work. In addition, the Australian company has the option to drill two wells, one on each Service Contract, to earn up to an additional 25% interest in each Service Contract. Seismic acquisition under the farmout agreement commenced in February 1997 and was 67% completed at July 31, 1997. No significant capital expenditures are anticipated by the Company in 1997 for the Philippines operations. 9 VAALCO ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Other Activities In March 1997, the Company sold its Gulf of Cambay concession and its 4% net profits interest in the CY-OS/2 concession, both in India, to Hardy Oil & Gas (UK) Limited for $2.5 million. The Company applied $1.0 million of the proceeds from the sale to complete the payment of the non-recourse loan made to the Company by Hardy in 1996. The remainder of the note was paid in April 1997.The Company continues to seek financing to fund the development of existing properties and to acquire additional assets. The Company will rely on the issuance of equity and debt securities, asset sales and cash flows from operations to provide the required capital for funding future operations. While there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising new financing, management believes that the prospects the Company has in hand will enable it to attract sufficient capital to fund required oil and gas activities. Cash FlowsNet cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 1997 was $4.5 million, an increase of $3.2 million, as compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 1996. The 1997 amount reflects cash received from the sale of marketable securities and the sale of the Company's interest in India.Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 1997 was $3.3 million, as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $0.3 million for the same period in 1996. The 1997 amount reflects the payment of the Company's long term debt. Item 2 of this document includes forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, the Company can give no assurance that these expectations will be achieved. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations include general economic, business and market conditions, the volatility of the price of oil and gas, competition, development and operating costs and the factors that are disclosed in conjunction with the forward looking statements included herein. 10 VAALCO ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Amounts stated hereunder have been rounded to the nearest $100,000, however, percentage changes have been calculated using actual amounts. THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 REVENUES Total crude oil and gas sales for the three months ended June 30, 1997 were $0.8 million, an increase of $0.5 million, as compared to $0.3 million for the same period in 1996. The 1996 revenues relate to the Company's oil production in the Philippines. The 1997 revenues include revenues relating to the Philippines, as well as oil and gas revenues relating to the Company's Gulf of Mexico operations The gain on sale of assets of $1.1 million, recognized in the three months ended June 30, 1996, was associated with the sale of the Company's interest in the PY-3 field in India. OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES Production expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1997 were $0.5 million, an increase of $0.3 million, as compared to $0.2 million for the same period in 1996. The increase is primarily due to production costs incurred in 1997 relating to the Gulf of Mexico operations. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1997 were $0.2 million, a decrease of $0.2 million, or 56%, as compared to $0.6 million for the same period in 1996. The decrease is primarily due to reduced overhead costs in the Philippines and overhead reimbursements in Gabon and the Gulf of Mexico. No preferred dividends were paid or accrued in the three months ending June 30, 1997. As part of the agreement to redeem the preferred stock in July, the preferred shareholders waived the right to preferred dividends beyond March 31, 1997. Other net income increased by $0.2 million to $0.05 million for the three months ending June 30, 1997 from a loss of $0.1 million for the comparable period in 1996. Certain inventory adjustments in 1996 accounted for the increase. NET INCOME Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended June 30, 1997 was $0.2 million, compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $0.4 million for the same period in 1996. The 1996 income results from the recognition of a gain on the sale of assets associated with the sale of the Company's interest in the PY-3 field in India. 11 VAALCO ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 REVENUES Total crude oil and gas sales for the six months ended June 30, 1997 were $1.7 million, a decrease of $0.5 million, or 21%, as compared to $2.2 million for the same period in 1996. The 1996 revenues relate to the Company's oil production in the Philippines, and included a final crude oil sale from the West Linapacan "A" Field. The 1997 revenues include revenues relating to the Philippines, as well as oil and gas revenues relating to the Company's Gulf of Mexico operations. The gain on sale of assets of $3.3 million, recognized in the six months ended June 30, 1997, was associated with the sale of marketable securities and the sale of the Company's interest in India. The gain on sale of assets of $1.1 million, recognized in the six months ended June 30, 1996, was associated with the sale of the Company's interest in the PY-3 field in India OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES Production expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1997 were $0.9 million, a decrease of $0.5 million, or 39%, as compared to $1.4 million for the same period in 1996. The decrease is primarily due to reduced operating costs in the Philippines, offset by production costs incurred in 1997 relating to the Gulf of Mexico operations. Depletion for 1997 relates to the Gulf of Mexico properties. No depletion expense was recorded in 1997 for the Philippine properties, as the property was fully depleted. The 1996 amount represents depletion of the Philippine properties. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1997 were $0.7 million, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 34%, as compared to $1.1 million for the same period in 1996. The decrease is primarily due to reduced overhead costs in the Philippines and overhead reimbursements in Gabon and the Philippines. Preferred dividends decreased from $0.11 million to $0.06 million due to the termination of dividend payments at March 31, 1997. Other net income increased by $0.2 million to $0.0 million for the six months ending June 30, 1997 from a loss of $0.2 million for the comparable period in 1996. Certain inventory adjustments in 1996 accounted for the increase. NET INCOME Net income attributable to common stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 1997 was $3.0 million, compared to net loss attributable to common stockholders of $0.3 million for the same period in 1996. The 1997 income results from the recognition of a gain associated with the sale of marketable securities and the sale of the Company's interest in India 12 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES In July 1997, the Company completed a private placement of four million shares of common Stock at a price of $1.00 per share to certain accredited investors.
