See notes to consolidated financial statements. 5 VAALCO ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 (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 consisting of normal recurring accruals which the Company deems necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim period. Such results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. 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, 1998. VAALCO Energy, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is a Houston-based independent energy company principally engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of crude oil and natural gas. VAALCO owns producing properties and conducts exploration activities as operator of consortium internationally in the Philippines and Gabon. Through participation in a partnership with Hunt Oil Company, VAALCO has additional international exploration interests in Argentina, Peru, Ethiopia, Ghana, Niger and Canada. Domestically, the Company has interests in the Texas Gulf Coast area. VAALCO's Philippine subsidiaries include Alcorn (Philippines) Inc. and Alcorn (Production) Philippines Inc. VAALCO's Gabon subsidiaries are VAALCO Gabon (Equata), Inc., VAALCO Gabon (Etame), Inc., VAALCO Production (Gabon), Inc. and VAALCO Energy (Gabon), Inc. VAALCO (USA), Inc. holds interests in certain properties in the United States. 2. ACQUISITION OF 1818 Oil Corp. On April 21, 1998 VAALCO consummated the acquisition of 1818 Oil Corp. in exchange for 10,000 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A. The Preferred Stock is convertible into 27.5 million shares of VAALCO, $0.10 par value per share, Common Stock. As a result of the voting control 1818 Oil Corp.'s shareholder obtained in the transaction, the 1818 Oil Corp. acquisition has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition and 1818 Oil Corp. is the acquiring entity for accounting purposes. The assets of 1818 Oil Corp. at closing consisted of a 7.5% limited partnership interest in Hunt Overseas Exploration Company, L.P. ("Hunt") with book value of $2.8 million and $12.6 million in cash. The $12.6 million of cash, which 1818 Oil Corp. had at the time of the acquisition, has been pledged as cash collateral to secure a letter of credit payable to Hunt for cash calls associated with the partnership. If Hunt does not call such capital contributions as provided in the partnership agreement of Hunt, the cash collateral will be released to the Company. Hunt has entered into production sharing contracts and other arrangements that entitle it to explore for oil and gas, both onshore and offshore, on approximately 34 million acres in various countries, including Argentina, Peru, Ethiopia, Ghana, Niger and Canada. The general partner of Hunt is Hunt Overseas Operating Company, a subsidiary of Hunt Oil Company. Hunt explores for high risk, large reserve accumulations, generally targeting 6 VAALCO ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 (Unaudited) deposits that pre-drilling seismic and other data indicate to have potential reserves in excess of 100 MMBOE. Under the partnership agreement with Hunt, the Company is obligated to contribute an estimated $5.1 million to fund its share of the exploration costs of Hunt, of which $1.1 million has been funded subsequent to the acquisition. In addition, if Hunt discovers oil or gas deposits, the Company will be required to contribute an additional $7.5 million to fund appraisal costs. VAALCO has $12.1 million in cash in an escrow account to fund its obligations under the partnership agreement. 1818 Oil Corp.'s equity as of December 31, 1998 has been retroactively changed for the equivalent number of shares of VAALCO's Common Stock received in the transaction. The difference between the par value of the common stock of 1818 Oil Corp. and VAALCO has been credited to additional paid-in capital. In addition, at the time of the merger, the 1818 Fund II, L.P., a fund managed by Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. (the "1818 Fund") contributed the debt owed to it by 1818 Oil Corp. as additional paid-in capital to 1818 Oil Corp. The income statement presented for the prior year periods is that of 1818 Oil Corp., not VAALCO the legal acquirer. The results of operations of VAALCO are included in the accompanying financial statements for the periods subsequent to the date of the acquisition. Accordingly, a comparison of 1999 and 1998 interim results is not meaningful. The legal name of the registrant continues to be VAALCO Energy, Inc. The following summarizes pro forma financial information assuming the acquisition of 1818 Oil Corp. had occurred on January 1, 1998. Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 ---------------- (Thousands of Dollars) Total revenues $ 366 Loss before income taxes (978) Net loss attributable to common stockholders (1,004) Basic net loss per share (0.06) 3. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS The Company is the operator of a 3,073 square kilometer concession known as the Etame Block offshore Gabon, West Africa, with a working interest ownership of 17.9%. In June 1998, the Company announced the discovery of the Etame field, with the drilling of the Etame No. 1 well. The well was drilled to a depth of 8,000 feet and resulted in an oil discovery, which tested at a rate of 3,700 barrels oil per day on a 32/64's inch choke from perforations in the Gamba Sandstone. The Etame Block contains two former Gulf Oil Company discoveries, the North and South Tchibala discoveries. All three discoveries consist of subsalt reservoirs that lie in approximately 250 feet of water depth, 20 miles offshore. 7 VAALCO ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 (Unaudited) In January 1999, the Company completed the drilling of the Etame 2V delineation well. The well found oil pay in the Gamba Sandstone, however, the reservoir was encountered at a lower depth than expected. The well was not tested. A seismic reprocessing effort has commenced to better delineate the Gamba reservoir below the salt before additional wells will be drilled. At least one additional delineation well is planned for the year 2000. The Company is currently performing seismic reprocessing activities on a proprietary 3-D survey, which was acquired over a portion of the block in 1998, to determine the future drilling location. During February 1999, Hunt Oil Company drilled a 4,500 foot test on its Rio Belgrano block in Argentina. The well did not encounter any commercial hydrocarbons and was abandoned. The Company had a 7.5% interest in the well. In December 1998, an Australian Company completed the acquisition of 3-D seismic over the Company's interests in Service Contract 14 in the Philippines. The Company and the other members of the Service Contract 14 Consortium assigned 35% of their working interest in the Service Contract to the Australian Company pursuant to the farm-out agreement. The Company participates in a joint venture with Paramount Petroleum, Inc. to conduct exploration activities primarily in the onshore Gulf Coast area, including Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana. In July 1998, the Company elected to participate at a 15% working interest level in the first prospect developed by the joint venture, which did not encounter productive hydrocarbon intervals and has been abandoned. The Company has agreed to take a 10% interest in two additional prospects to be drilled during the second and third quarters of 1999. The first of the two prospects was drilled to total depth in July and did not encounter commercial hydrocarbons. 4.

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 This report 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 ("Exchange Act"). All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Report (and the exhibits hereto), including without limitation, statements regarding the Company's financial position and estimated quantities and net present values of reserves, are forward looking statements. The Company can give no assurances that the assumptions upon which such statements are based will prove to have been correct. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations ("Cautionary Statements") are disclosed in the section "Risk Factors" included in the Company's Forms 10-KSB and other periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act, which are herein incorporated by reference. All subsequent written and oral forward looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified by the Cautionary Statements. INTRODUCTION The Company's results of operations are dependent upon the difference between prices received for its oil and gas production and the costs to find and produce such oil and gas. Oil and gas prices have been and are expected in the future to be volatile and subject to fluctuations based on a number of factors beyond the control of the Company. The Company's production in the Philippines (representing substantially all of the Company's oil production since 1994) is from mature offshore fields with high production costs. Since 1996, the Company has produced into barges, which transport the oil to market. Due to weather and other factors, the Company's production is generally highest during the first and fourth quarters of the year. The Company's margin on sales from these fields (the price received for oil less the production costs for the oil) is lower than the margin on oil production from many other areas. As a result, the profitability of the Company's production in the Philippines is affected more by changes in oil prices than production located in other areas. The Company uses the successful efforts method to account for its investment in oil and gas properties whereby costs of productive wells, developmental dry holes and productive leases are capitalized and amortized using the units-of- production method based on estimated net proved reserves. The costs of development wells are capitalized but charged to expense if and when the well is determined to be unsuccessful. Geological and geophysical costs and the costs of carrying and retaining undeveloped properties are expensed as incurred. CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY The Company's primary source of capital resources is derived predominantly from the sale of marketable securities, and the private placement of Common Stock, Preferred Stock and debt financing to fund its exploration operations. The Company produces oil from the Matinloc and Nido fields in the South China Sea, located in the Philippines. During the year ended December 31, 1998, total production from the fields was 9 VAALCO ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--(Continued) approximately 287,000 gross barrels of oil. Production in the first half of 1999 was 134,000 gross barrels of oil. Substantially all of the Company's crude oil and natural gas is sold at the well head at posted or index prices under short- term contracts, as is customary in the industry. The Company markets its share of crude oil under an agreement with Seaoil, a local Philippines refiner. While the loss of this buyer might have a material effect on the Company in the near term, management believes that the Company would be able to obtain other customers for its crude oil. On April 21, 1998 VAALCO consummated the acquisition of 1818 Oil Corp. in exchange for 10,000 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A. The assets of 1818 Oil Corp. consisted at closing of a 7.5% limited partnership interest in Hunt with book value of $2.8 million and $12.6 million in cash. As a result of the voting control 1818 Oil Corp.'s shareholder obtained in the transaction, the 1818 Oil Corp. acquisition has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition and 1818 Oil Corp. is the acquiring entity for financial accounting purposes. The income statement presented for the prior year periods are those of 1818 Oil Corp., not VAALCO, the legal acquirer. The results of operations of VAALCO are included in the accompanying financial statements for the periods subsequent to the date of the acquisition. Accordingly, a comparison of 1999 and 1998 results is not meaningful. The legal name of the registrant continues to be VAALCO Energy, Inc. Hunt has entered into production sharing contracts and other arrangements that entitle it to explore for oil and gas, both onshore and offshore, on approximately 34 million acres in various countries, including Argentina, Canada, Ethiopia, Ghana, Niger and Peru. The partnership agreement of Hunt obligates the Company to contribute, when requested by Hunt, up to $5.1 million to fund Hunt's exploration program of which $1.1 million has been funded since the acquisition. In addition, if Hunt discovers oil, the Company may be required to contribute an additional $7.5 million to fund the appraisal of the discovery. The $12.6 million of cash, which 1818 Oil Corp. had at the time of the acquisition, has been pledged as cash collateral to secure a letter of credit payable to Hunt for cash calls associated with the partnership. If Hunt does not call such capital contributions as provided in the partnership agreement of Hunt, the cash collateral will be released to the Company. During 1998, the Company issued 5.2 million shares of Common Stock in a private placement for proceeds of $9.0 million net of $0.8 million in fees and expenses. These amounts are being used to fund the Company's capital expenditure program, including investments in the Paramount joint venture, possible future acquisitions and for general corporate purposes. The Company has committed to invest $3.0 million in the Paramount joint venture, all of which has already been funded as of the date of this filing. There can be no assurance that the Company will realize a return on this investment or that the Company's investment in the Paramount joint venture will be successful. 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, assets sales and cash flow from operations to provide the required capital for funding future operations. While there can be no assurance the Company will be successful in raising new 10 VAALCO ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--(Continued) financing, management believes the prospects the Company has in hand will enable it to attract sufficient capital to fund required oil and gas activities. During 1999, the Company anticipates that it will make capital expenditures on oil and gas properties of approximately $4.0 million, including Hunt partnership expenditures, and a contribution of $0.3 million to the Paramount joint venture. Approximately $1.9 million of this amount has been spent as of June 30, 1999. The Company postponed drilling plans for exploration activities in Brazos County, Texas due to low oil prices. Certain of the leases expire in 1999, and despite the recent upturn in oil prices, the Company may not be successful in finding drilling partners to drill on the leases. In that event, the leases will be written off as they expire. The anticipated capital expenditures exclude potential acquisitions. The Company believes the total net proceeds of $21.6 million received from the 1998 private placement and cash acquired in 1818 Oil Corp. are sufficient to fund the Company's capital budget through 1999. YEAR 2000 The Company, like other businesses, is facing the Year 2000 issue. Many computer systems and equipment with embedded chips or processors use only two digits to represent the calendar year. This could result in computational or operational errors as dates are compared across the century boundary causing possible disruptions in business operations. The Year 2000 issue can arise at any point in the Company's operations. State of Readiness The Company began addressing the Year 2000 issue in 1997, with an initial assessment of Year 2000 readiness efforts for its foreign and domestic business units. Based on the initial assessment, the following items were acknowledged as areas for attention to ensure Year 2000 compliance: 1. Assessment of all systems for Year 2000 compliance. 2. Development of a project schedule for remediation or replacement of non-compliant systems. 3. Development of a project schedule for testing the compliant systems. 4. Development of a list of significant vendors/suppliers for surveying their Year 2000 readiness efforts. The Year 2000 issue is being addressed within the Company by its domestic and foreign business units, and progress has been reported periodically to management. To the best of its knowledge, the Company has effectively completed all Year 2000 compliance tasks. Third Party Relationships The Company relies on third party suppliers for raw materials, water, utilities, transportation and other key services. Interruption of supplier operations due to Year 2000 issues could affect the Company's operations. The Company's business units have contacted significant external parties, including suppliers and customers concerning their Year 2000 readiness efforts. To the 11 VAALCO ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--(Continued) best of the Company's knowledge these suppliers, customers and other entities appear to have addressed their Year 2000 issues as they pertain to the Company's operations. Contingency Planning The Company has evaluated the need for a contingency plan for Year 2000 readiness, and determined such a plan is not necessary given the safety manuals and procedures already in effect for its production and other operations. Independent Verification and Validation For the Philippine operations, an outside programmer was hired to review the systems and make the appropriate changes for Year 2000 compliance in their accounting systems. This work has been completed at a total cost of approximately $20 thousand net to the Company. For VAALCO's domestic and Gabon operations, upgrades of the current systems were completed by an independent source in the third quarter of 1998 at no expense to the Company. Although Year 2000 issues could have an adverse effect on the results of operations or financial condition of the Company, it is not possible to anticipate the extent of impact or the worst-case scenario at this time 12 VAALCO ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The 1818 Oil Corp. acquisition has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition and 1818 Oil Corp. is the acquiring entity for accounting purposes. As such, the income statement presented for the prior year period are those of 1818 Oil Corp., not VAALCO, the legal acquirer. The results of operations of VAALCO are included in the accompanying financial statements for the periods subsequent to the date of the acquisition. Accordingly, a comparison of 1999 and 1998 interim results is not meaningful. The legal name of the registrant continues to be VAALCO Energy, Inc. THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 Revenues Total revenues from oil and gas sales were $146 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $211 thousand for the comparable period in 1998. Lower oil prices in the 1999 period comprised the major diffence in revenues. Operating Costs and Expenses Total production expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1999 were $164 thousand compared to $138 thousand in 1998. General and administrative expenses were $511 and $507 in the 1999 and 1998 quarters, respectively. Other Income (Expense) Interest income of $198 thousand was received from amounts on deposit in 1999 compared to $302 thousand in the 1998 quarter ended June 30. Lower interest rates and smaller balances on deposit in 1999 compared to 1998 caused the difference. The equity loss in unconsolidated entities in the quarter ended June 30, 1999 of $251 thousand consisted of partnership expenses of $218 thousand associated with the Hunt partnership, (consisting primarily of exploration expense for seismic in Ghana, and expenses for partnership general and administrative costs) and $33 thousand of exploration expenses associated with the Paramount joint venture. 1998 period losses consisted of $628 thousand associated with the Hunt partnership, and included dry hole costs associated with a well drilled offshore Ghana. Net Loss Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended June 30, 1999 was $866 thousand, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $841 thousand for the same period in 1998. The net loss in 1999 was primarily due to exploration costs associated with the Hunt partnership, general and administrative expenses and dry hole costs associated with the Company's participation in wells in the United States. The 1998 loss was due primarily to exploration costs associated with the Hunt partnership. 13 VAALCO ENERGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--(Continued) SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 Revenues Total revenues from oil and gas sales were $272 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $211 thousand for the comparable period in 1998. The Company experienced lower oil prices in the 1999 period, but revenues in 1999 are for the full six months, compared to 1998 where they are for the period effective from the date of the merger with 1818 Oil Corp. Operating Costs and Expenses Total production expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1999 were $222 thousand compared to $138 thousand in 1998. General and administrative expenses were $1,002 and $507 in the 1999 and 1998 six month periods respectively. 1999 expenses are for the full six months, compared to 1998 where they are for the period effective from the date of the merger with 1818 Oil Corp. Other Income (Expense) Interest income of $457 thousand was received from amounts on deposit in 1999 compared to $302 thousand in the 1998 quarter ended June 30. The equity loss in unconsolidated entities in the six months ended June 30, 1999 of $762 thousand consisted of partnership expenses of $554 thousand associated with the Hunt partnership, (consisting primarily of exploration expense for seismic in Ghana, dry hole costs for the well in Argentina, and expenses for partnership general and administrative costs) and $208 thousand of exploration expenses associated with the Paramount joint venture. 1998 period losses consisted of $628 thousand associated with the Hunt partnership, and included dry hole costs associated with a well drilled offshore Ghana. The 1998 costs also included interest expense and financing charges of $424 thousand. Net Loss Net loss attributable to common stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was $1,518 thousand, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $1,266 thousand for the same period in 1998. The net loss in 1999 was primarily due to exploration costs associated with the Hunt partnership and the Paramount joint venture, general and administrative expenses and dry hole costs associated with the Company's participation in wells in the United States. The 1998 loss was due primarily to exploration and interest costs associated with the Hunt partnership. 14 VAALCO ENERGY, INC.
