ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
GENERAL
Presidio Oil Company is an independent oil and gas company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware in April 1976 to continue the business of Presidio Exploration, Inc. (organized in 1968) of engaging, primarily through subsidiaries, in onshore oil and gas exploration, development and production in selected regions in the continental United States. The Company maintains its corporate offices at 5613 DTC Parkway, Suite 750, Englewood, Colorado 80111- 3065. Its telephone number at that location is (303) 773-0100. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (this "Report") to "Presidio" or the "Company" are to Presidio Oil Company and its consolidated subsidiaries.
The Company conducts most of its exploration, development and production operations in two regional areas: (i) the Rocky Mountains, with operations primarily in Wyoming and North Dakota, and (ii) the Mid-Continent, with operations primarily in western Oklahoma and south Louisiana. Within these regional areas, the Company's operations are concentrated in five core areas: the Green River Basin in Wyoming; the Powder River Basin in Wyoming; the Williston Basin in North Dakota; the Anadarko Basin in western Oklahoma; and south Louisiana.
During 1994 and the first three months of 1995, the financial condition and operating cash flows of the Company were materially and adversely affected by a significant industry-wide decline in the price of natural gas.
Although the Company was successful in 1994 in replacing both the oil and gas reserves produced and those divested by it during such year and increasing its gas production compared to 1993, a decline in oil production in 1994 and the severe decline in gas prices during the second half of 1994 more than offset such positive operating results. The Company's revenues and operating cash flows thus declined significantly in 1994 and early 1995, creating substantial uncertainties regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in its current financial structure. Without a significant increase in hydrocarbon prices in the near future, the Company believes that it will be unable to continue to service all of its interest payment obligations during the remainder of 1995 and may have difficulty meeting other future financial obligations as well.
The Company is actively considering various alternatives intended to improve its financial condition and increase its operating cash flows, and has initiated discussions with respect to a restructuring of its 11.5% Senior Secured Notes Due 2000 (the "Senior Secured Notes"), Senior Gas Indexed Notes Due 2002 (the "Senior GINs") and 9% Convertible Subordinated Debentures Due 2015 (the "9% Debentures") with a number of the holders of such securities. The Company has retained financial advisors to assist in such efforts. No assurance, however, can be given that the Company will be able to successfully conclude any of the arrangements being considered. See Items 7 and 8 of this Report for additional information as to the Company's operating losses, working capital deficiency and stockholders' deficit.
In 1994 Presidio recorded substantial success in adding 4.2 million barrels ("MMBbls") of oil and 66.2 billion cubic feet ("BCF") of gas or 15.2 million equivalent barrels of oil to its proved hydrocarbon reserves, compared to production of 1.1 MMBbls of oil and 17.2 BCF of gas and sales of lower-margin and non-core oil and gas properties consisting of 2.8 MMBbls of oil and 28 BCF of gas, and thereby replacing 133% of its production and property sales at a cost per equivalent barrel of $2.27. In terms of natural gas equivalents, the Company added 91 billion equivalent cubic feet of gas at a finding cost of $.38 per equivalent thousand cubic feet of gas.
Most of this increase in proved reserves resulted from the Company's successful field extension and other developmental operations, with the remainder being principally attributable to the acquisition of additional interests in oil and gas wells operated by the Company (see Note 13 to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8 of this Report for detailed information concerning the Company's oil and gas reserves, including certain producing property sales completed subsequent to yearend 1994). Moreover, notwithstanding the divestiture of 28 BCF of gas and the production of 17.2 BCF of gas, the Company's proved developed gas reserves increased from 164.5 BCF to 176.2 BCF during 1994.
Due to the current uncertainty as to its financial condition and the future trends in oil and gas pricing, the Company has determined to limit its capital expenditures, subject to the availability of funds (as to which no assurance can be given), during the remainder of 1995 to those that are required to maintain its producing oil and gas properties as well as certain essential development and other drilling operations.
EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION OPERATIONS
The exploration and production activities of the Company consist of the geological and geophysical evaluation of prospective oil and gas properties, the acquisition of oil and gas leases or other interests in exploratory prospects, the drilling of exploratory test wells, and the development and operation of properties for the production and sale of oil and gas. The Company's drilling activities include participation in a substantial amount of low-risk development drilling operations, as well as in selected high-risk, high-potential exploration prospects. The Company generates most of its exploration prospects, particularly in the Rocky Mountains, through its in-house geological staff. However, exploration and development drilling prospects may be identified by third parties, including independent petroleum consultants and other oil and gas companies through joint interest programs, particularly in the Mid-Continent. All of the drilling activities of the Company are performed by independent drilling contractors. The Company's two principal regional operating areas, and the operations conducted therein, are briefly described below. The reserves outside of such two regional operating areas totaled 27.3 BCF of gas, of which 1.2 BCF of gas was proved developed reserves.
ROCKY MOUNTAINS
At December 31, 1994, the Company had 452 gross (178 net) producing wells, 106,300 gross (43,000 net) developed acres and 667,100 gross (322,400 net) undeveloped acres in this area, primarily located in (i) the Moxa Arch and Red Desert areas of the Green River Basin in Wyoming, (ii) the Powder River Basin in Wyoming and (iii) the Williston Basin in North Dakota. The Company operates 343 of these gross wells. For the month ended January 31, 1995, net production from the Rocky Mountain area averaged approximately 30.5 million cubic feet ("MMCF") of gas per day and 2.3 thousand barrels ("MBbls") of oil per day, representing approximately 70% of the Company's average daily production for such period. At December 31, 1994 the Rocky Mountain area had proved reserves of 171.1 BCF of gas and 10.9 MMBbls of oil, representing approximately 58% of the Company's total proved oil and gas reserves, of which 106.1 BCF of gas and 8 MMBbls of oil were proved developed reserves.
MID-CONTINENT
At December 31, 1994, the Company had 321 gross (94 net) producing wells, 52,100 gross (20,300 net) developed acres and 36,500 gross (13,300 net) undeveloped acres in this area, primarily located in (i) south Louisiana and (ii) the Anadarko Basin in western Oklahoma. The Company operates 106 of these gross wells. For the month ended January 31, 1995, net production from the Mid-Continent area averaged approximately 16.5 MMCF of gas per day and .4 MBbls of oil per day, representing approximately 30% of the Company's average daily production for such period. At December 31, 1994 the Mid-Continent area had proved reserves of 125.6 BCF of gas and 2.4 MMBbls of oil, representing approximately 35% of the Company's total proved oil and gas reserves, of which 68.9 BCF of gas and 1.5 MMBbls of oil were proved developed reserves.
EMPLOYEES
As of March 15, 1995, the Company had 133 employees of which 33 were field employees. The Company's employment level will change over time as required by its operations. In addition, the Company intends to engage the services of independent geological, engineering, land, accounting and other consultants from time to time to assist with its operations.
MARKETS
The Company's gas production has historically been sold under contracts with marketing and transportation companies and with end-users. In past years a surplus of gas has been available to the marketplace in certain areas of the United States, resulting in industry-wide price weakness. During 1993 and early 1994 gas prices strengthened, and the Company benefitted from such improved prices since its contracts with third-party purchasers provide for short-term and/or market sensitive pricing for the majority of its gas production. However, since mid-1994 gas prices have declined significantly and the outlook for gas prices during the remainder of 1995 is uncertain, with there being no current indication that 1995 prices will substantially strengthen in the near term. See Item 7 of this Report for additional information as to the Company's markets and prices.
The Company markets most of its oil production with independent third-party resellers and refiners at market ("posted") prices. These posted prices generally reflect the prices determined by the trading of West Texas Intermediate ("WTI") oil futures contracts on the New York Mercantile Exchange ("NYMEX"), with adjustments for the geographical area in which the producing properties are located and for the quality of the oil produced. NYMEX prices continue to be influenced by worldwide production levels and a variety of political and economic events over which the Company has no control.
COMPETITION
Competition in the oil and gas industry is intense. Many companies and individuals compete to acquire prospective oil and gas leases and other mineral interests, as well as to obtain exploration and development funding. Many of these competitors are large, well-established companies with substantially larger operating staffs and greater capital resources than the Company, and they have been engaged in the energy business for a much longer period than the Company. The Company may be at a competitive disadvantage with these larger entities.
There is also competition in the marketing of gas, insofar as numerous companies are active gas marketers, including marketing affiliates of interstate pipelines, major integrated oil companies, Canadian gas producers and pipelines, and local and national gas gatherers, brokers and marketers of widely varying sizes, financial resources and experience. Certain competitors have capital resources many times greater than the Company's, and they control substantially greater supplies of gas. Local utilities and distributors of gas (some of which are customers of the Company) are, in some cases, engaged directly and through affiliates in marketing activities that compete with those of the Company.
REGULATION
The Company's oil and gas operations are subject to various federal, state and local governmental regulations. Matters subject to regulation include discharge permits for drilling operations, drilling bonds, reports concerning operations, the spacing of wells, unitization and pooling of properties and taxation. From time to time, regulatory agencies have imposed price controls and limitations on production by restricting the rate of flow of oil and gas wells below actual production capacity in order to conserve supplies of oil and gas.
Oil and gas operations are also subject to extensive federal, state and local laws regulating the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of human health and the environment. These regulations are often difficult and costly to comply with and carry substantial penalties for failure to comply. In addition, these regulations may restrict the rate of oil and gas production below the rate that would otherwise exist. The regulatory burden on the oil and gas industry increases its cost of doing business and, consequently, affects its profitability. To date, expenditures by the Company related to compliance with these laws have not been significant. The Company believes, however, that environmental regulations, including regulations with respect to the handling and disposal of oil and gas exploration and production wastes and oil field wastes contaminated by naturally occurring radioactive materials, and the imposition of financial responsibility requirements with respect to environmental cleanup costs (e.g. regulations requiring environmental liability insurance or other types of financial assurance) may result in additional costs to the Company in the future. For example, amendments to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act to regulate further the handling, transportation, storage and disposal of oil and gas exploration and production wastes have been considered by Congress and may be adopted. Also, in August 1993 the U.S. Minerals Management Service published an advance notice of its intent to adopt regulations that may require owners of oil and gas facilities that could be the source of an oil spill into waters of the United States to provide $150 million in financial assurances to cover costs that might be incurred by governmental authorities in responding to and cleaning up an oil spill. Furthermore, at least two courts have recently ruled that certain wastes associated with the production of crude oil may be classified as "hazardous substances" under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (commonly called the "Superfund") and thus such wastes may be subject to the cleanup and liability standards established under the federal Superfund program. Such legislation, regulations and court decisions, if enacted, adopted or upheld, could have a significant adverse impact on the Company's operating costs.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION
The Company's operations are concentrated in five core areas where the Company conducts most of its exploration and development drilling and acquisition activity: the Green River Basin in Wyoming; the Powder River Basin in Wyoming; the Williston Basin in North Dakota; the Anadarko Basin in western Oklahoma; and south Louisiana. None of the Company's oil and gas production is subject to long-term supply or similar agreements with foreign governments or authorities.
OPERATIONS
At December 31, 1994, the Company operated approximately 77% of the net producing wells in which it owned an interest. The operator of a well supervises production, maintains production records, employs field personnel and performs other functions on behalf of all owners of such operated wells. See "Business - Exploration and Production Operations" contained in Item 1 of this Report for information concerning the Company's operating areas.
The Company's oil and gas operations are subject to all of the operating hazards and risks normally incident to drilling for and producing oil and gas, such as fires, explosions, encountering formations with abnormal pressures, blowouts, cratering and oil spills, any of which can result in loss of hydrocarbons, environmental pollution, personal injury claims and loss of life. Such hazards can also severely damage or destroy equipment, sub-surface structures, surrounding areas or property of others. As protection against such operating hazards, the Company maintains insurance coverage, including operator's extra expense, physical damage on certain risks, employer's liability, comprehensive general liability and workers' compensation. The Company believes that such insurance is adequate and customary for companies of a similar size engaged in operations similar to those of the Company, but losses can occur from uninsurable risks or in amounts in excess of existing
insurance coverage. The Company does not carry business interruption insurance in respect of most of its operations and the occurrence of an event that is not fully covered by insurance could have an adverse impact upon the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
ESTIMATED PROVED RESERVES
The following tables set forth estimates of proved oil and gas reserves and the present value of estimated future net revenues attributable to such reserves, based on the assumptions that oil and gas prices will remain fixed at yearend levels, with escalation up to prices which prevail under fixed and determinable escalation provisions of existing oil and gas contracts, and that operating costs will remain fixed at yearend levels. The present value of the estimated future net revenues from proved oil and gas reserves at the dates indicated below was computed by discounting the aggregate estimated future net revenues by 10% per year. The present value does not represent the fair market value of such reserves. This information is based primarily upon reserve reports prepared by the Company and reviewed by Huddleston & Co., Inc., Houston, Texas, an independent petroleum and geological engineering firm.
Proved reserves are the estimated quantities of oil, gas and natural gas liquids which geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves are proved reserves that can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. The estimation of reserves requires substantial judgment on the part of petroleum engineers resulting in imprecise determinations, particularly with respect to new discoveries. The accuracy of any reserve estimate depends on the quality of available data and engineering and geological interpretation and judgement. Results of drilling, testing and production subsequent to the date of the estimate may result in revisions of such estimate. Accordingly, estimates of reserves are often materially different from the quantities of oil and gas that are ultimately recovered and such estimates will change as future production and development information becomes available. The reserve data represents estimates only and should not be construed as being exact. Estimates of proved reserves at December 31, 1994 have not been previously filed by the Company with, or included in reports to, any federal authority or agency.
(1) Includes proved undeveloped gas reserves of 26.1 BCF, 27.5 BCF and 28.1 BCF at December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively, which are subject to a joint drilling participation agreement as discussed in Note 11 to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8 of this Report. (2) Represents the present value, discounted at 10%, of the estimated future net revenues from proved oil and gas reserves, before a provision for future income taxes. (3) See Notes 12 and 13 to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8 of this Report for information concerning oil and gas property sales completed by the Company subsequent to yearend 1994.
See Note 13 to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8 of this Report for an analysis of changes in proved oil and gas reserves and changes in the present value of future net revenues.
PRODUCTIVE WELLS AND DEVELOPED ACREAGE
The following table sets forth the Company's developed acreage and productive wells at December 31, 1994. "Gross" refers to the total acres or wells in which the Company has a working interest, and "Net" refers to gross acres or wells multiplied by the percentage of working interest owned by the Company.
(1) Developed acreage is acreage assignable to productive wells. (2) Productive wells consist of producing wells and wells capable of production, including gas wells awaiting pipeline connections or necessary governmental certification to commence deliveries, and oil wells awaiting connection to production facilities. Wells which are completed in more than one producing horizon are counted as one well. The gross wells reported above which had multiple completions totaled 11.
PRODUCTION, UNIT PRICES AND COSTS
Information with respect to production and average unit prices and costs for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 is set forth below:
(1) In December 1992 the Company sold its West Virginia proved developed properties which had received an above-market contract price for gas sales. The Company's pro forma gas price excluding such West Virginia properties was $1.54 for the year ended December 31, 1992. (2) Oil and gas are converted to a common unit of measure ("equivalent barrel" or "equivalent MCF") on the basis of six MCF of gas to one barrel of oil. (3) The components of production costs may vary substantially among wells, depending on the methods of recovery employed and other factors, but generally include production taxes, administrative overhead, workovers, maintenance and repair, labor and utilities.
UNDEVELOPED ACREAGE
At December 31, 1994, the Company owned 873,200 gross (424,200 net) undeveloped acres, all of which are located in the continental United States. The table below sets forth the states in which such acreage is located and the number of gross and net acres in each.
(1) This acreage is subject to a joint drilling participation agreement as discussed in Note 11 to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 8 of this Report.
DRILLING ACTIVITY
During the periods indicated, the Company drilled or participated in the drilling of the following exploratory and development wells:
The above well information excludes wells in which the Company has only an overriding royalty interest.
At December 31, 1994, the Company was participating in the drilling or completion of 15 gross (5.86 net) wells.
OFFICE LEASES
The Company has entered into certain leases for office space in Denver and New York City.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.
The Company's common stock is listed for trading on the American Stock Exchange and The International Stock Exchange, London. The following table sets forth the high and low sales prices of the Company's common stock on the American Stock Exchange:
At March 15, 1995, the Company estimates that there were approximately 995 record holders of Class A Common Stock and 500 record holders of Class B Common Stock.
The last reported sales prices of the Company's Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock on the American Stock Exchange on March 15, 1995 were $.1875 and $.50 per share, respectively.
From July 1987 through December 1992, the Company paid a quarterly cash dividend of $.025 per share on all outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, and has never paid dividends on Class B Common Stock. In January 1993 the Company announced the elimination of Class A Common Stock dividends. The Company's ability to pay dividends is currently subject to the provisions of various covenants contained in the Company's revolving credit facility and certain indentures relating to its public debt.
In addition to the factors discussed above, the determination of the amount of any future cash dividends to be declared and paid on Class A Common Stock will depend upon, among other things, the Company's financial condition, its cash flow from operating activities, the level of the Company's capital and exploration expenditures and its future business prospects.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Presidio Oil Company:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Presidio Oil Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the 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 financial 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 consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Presidio Oil Company and subsidiaries at December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Notes 1 and 2 to the financial statements, the Company's recurring losses from operations, working capital deficiency and stockholders' deficit raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Notes 1 and 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
As discussed in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for its employee stock ownership plan effective January 1, 1993.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements present the financial position of Presidio Oil Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the "Company" or "Presidio").
The Company's Senior Subordinated Gas Indexed Notes, Senior Gas Indexed Notes and Senior Secured Notes (collectively the "Notes") are guaranteed by all significant subsidiaries of the Company (the "Guarantors"). Separate financial statements of the Guarantors are not included herein because the Guarantors have fully, unconditionally, jointly and severally guaranteed the Company's obligations with respect to the Notes and the Company (which is primarily a holding company and whose operating income is generated by its subsidiaries) has no separate operations of its own. The operations, assets, liabilities and equity of the subsidiaries of the Company that are not Guarantors are inconsequential.
Current Financial Position
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. During 1994 and the first three months of 1995, the financial condition and operating cash flows of the Company were materially and adversely affected by a significant industry-wide decline in the price of natural gas.
Although the Company was successful in 1994 in replacing both the oil and gas reserves produced and those divested by it during such year and increasing its gas production compared to 1993, a decline in oil production in 1994 and the severe decline in gas prices during the second half of 1994 more than offset such positive operating results. The Company's revenues and operating cash flows thus declined significantly in 1994 and early 1995, creating substantial uncertainties regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern in its current financial structure. Without a significant increase in hydrocarbon prices in the near future, the Company believes that it will be unable to service all of its interest payment obligations during the remainder of 1995 and may have difficulty meeting other future financial obligations as well.
The Company is actively considering various alternatives intended to improve its financial condition and cash flows position, and has initiated discussions with respect to a restructuring of its 11.5% Senior Secured Notes Due 2000, Senior Gas Indexed Notes Due 2002 and 9% Convertible Subordinated Debentures Due 2015 with a number of the holders of such securities. The Company has retained financial advisors to assist in such efforts. No assurance, however, can be given that the Company will be able to successfully conclude any of the arrangements being considered. (See also Note 2 for a description of the Company's debt).
PRESIDIO OIL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
Property, Plant and Equipment and Depletion, Depreciation and Amortization
The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas producing activities whereby all costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas properties are capitalized. Sales of oil and gas properties are recorded as an adjustment of capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized. Capitalized costs are subject to a ceiling limitation test based on a computed value of the Company's present value of estimated future net revenues from proved reserves using current prices (with consideration of price changes only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements), discounted at 10%, after adjusting for tax effects at the end of each period. Due to the low oil and gas prices being received during 1992, the Company was required to reduce the carrying value of its oil and gas properties by $15,000,000 in such year.
The provision for depletion, depreciation and amortization of oil and gas properties is calculated by multiplying current period oil and gas production by a rate which is determined by dividing capitalized oil and gas costs (except for costs of certain unevaluated acreage discussed below) plus estimated future costs to develop the Company's proved oil and gas reserves, by the quantities of estimated proved oil and gas reserves. The Company excludes investments in unevaluated acreage from costs to be amortized pending determination as to the existence of proved reserves on such acreage. The Company's unevaluated acreage is subject to a periodic review for impairment and, if necessary, the amount of impairment is included in the costs to be amortized. The Company capitalizes interest on unevaluated properties not subject to amortization. The Company capitalized interest of $1,141,000, $1,278,000 and $2,639,000 (out of total interest costs, including amounts associated with discontinued operations, of $29,271,000, $26,312,000 and $33,880,000) for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company files a consolidated income tax return and provides deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements or tax returns (see Note 3).
PRESIDIO OIL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
Loss Per Common Share
(1) As of January 1, 1993 the Company adopted a new method of accounting for its Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") which requires unallocated shares held by the ESOP to be excluded from outstanding shares for purposes of calculating loss per share. The N/A for the year ended December 31, 1992 indicates that such new accounting method does not apply to such year and, therefore, the weighted average number of unallocated shares held by the ESOP for the year ended December 31, 1992 of 1,324,000 was reflected as outstanding for purposes of calculating loss per common share.
PRESIDIO OIL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
Deferred Charges
The Company records the fees and expenses associated with its bank and public debt as deferred charges and amortizes such costs to interest expense over the life of the debt using the effective interest method. Debt repayment expense reflects the accelerated amortization of certain of such costs during the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1992.
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
The Company considers investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Included in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows is $26,896,000, $23,945,000 and $29,365,000 of interest paid, including amounts paid associated with discontinued operations, net of amounts capitalized, during the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 1993, $99,770,000 of Senior Subordinated Gas Indexed Notes were exchanged for an equivalent amount of Senior Gas Indexed Notes (see Note 2); and, insofar as such exchange was a non-cash transaction, it is not reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Gas Balancing Arrangements
The Company uses the entitlement method of recording gas revenues. Under such method, sales are recorded based upon the Company's proportionate share of gas sold. The Company then records a receivable (payable) to the extent it sells less (more) than its proportionate share of the revenues. At December 31, 1994 and 1993, the Company had net gas balancing liabilities of $4,074,000 associated with approximately 2.6 billion cubic feet ("BCF") of gas and $3,930,000 associated with 2.1 BCF of gas, respectively.
2. DEBT
Bank Debt
At December 31, 1994, the Company had bank debt of $21 million outstanding under a $25 million revolving credit facility (the "Credit Agreement") which permits loans of up to $21.4 million with such amount being able to be increased to $24.3 million with the approval of the Company's lenders and if the Company elects to pledge additional oil and gas properties under the mortgages securing the Credit Agreement. The Company had $15 million outstanding under such Credit Agreement at December 31, 1993.
The Credit Agreement (i) is secured by mortgages on certain of the Company's oil and gas properties (the "Mortgaged Properties"); (ii) provides for an interest rate of either prime plus 1% or LIBOR plus 2 1/2%; (iii) requires that the commitment be reduced by 100% of the proceeds realized from the sale of Mortgaged Properties; (iv) requires that 75% of the proceeds (in excess of $5 million sold subsequent to September 30, 1994) from the sale of assets other than Mortgaged Properties be used to develop the Company's hydrocarbon reserves; (v) requires regular quarterly commitment reductions of approximately $1.4 million beginning on October 1, 1995 through July 1, 1999; (vi) requires capital expenditures of not less than $5 million per annum during the three-year period ending October 1, 1996 in respect of the development of the Mortgaged Properties; and (vii) provides that, on a quarterly basis, the Company's ratio of bank debt to total capitalization (excluding the effect of any reduction in the carrying amount of oil and gas properties) to be greater than .15 on the last day of each quarter, and the Company maintain at least a 1:1 ratio of its operating cash flows plus
PRESIDIO OIL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
the proceeds of asset sales during the preceding four quarters (the "Period") to interest paid by the Company during the Period plus the amount of any required commitment reductions during the four quarters following the Period.
At December 31, 1994, the estimated minimum principal repayments associated with the Credit Agreement were $0, $5,600,000, $5,600,000, $5,600,000 and $4,200,000 in each of the years 1995 through 1999.
Gas Indexed Notes; Senior Secured Notes
On August 6, 1993, the Company completed various transactions (the "Private Exchange") with certain holders (and their affiliates) (the "Holders") of the Company's Senior Subordinated Gas Indexed Notes Due 1999 (the "Old Notes"), pursuant to which a total of $75 million aggregate principal amount of the Old Notes was exchanged for an equivalent principal amount of the Company's newly-issued Senior Gas Indexed Notes Due 2002 (the "Senior GINs") and the Holders purchased $56.25 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's 11.5% Senior Secured Notes Due 2000 (the "Senior Secured Notes"). The net proceeds of the sale of the Senior Secured Notes were used to prepay $55 million of bank debt.
On November 30, 1993, the Company completed a public exchange offer (the "Exchange Offer") pursuant to which (i) $24.77 million of the $25 million of the Old Notes remaining after the Private Exchange were exchanged for an equivalent principal amount of the Senior GINs and (ii) $18.75 million of Senior Secured Notes were sold with the proceeds of such sale being used to prepay bank debt.
The terms of the Senior GINs are generally the same as those of the Old Notes, except that the Senior GINs: (i) rank pari passu with other senior debt of the Company (including bank debt and the Senior Secured Notes, as discussed below, which are also secured by mortgages on certain of the Company's oil and gas properties which provide preferential claims to such properties) and rank senior to the Old Notes; (ii) mature in 2002 and have no sinking fund requirements; (iii) have a 15% maximum interest rate above which the 13.25% base interest rate may not be increased as a result of the gas indexing feature as discussed below (which is the same as that in the Old Notes), instead of the 18% maximum contained in the Old Notes; and (iv) are redeemable, at the option of the Company, at the prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) and during the indicated years beginning August 15: 1996 - 106%; 1997 - 103%; and 1998 - 100%. Both the Old Notes and Senior GINs bear interest at a base rate of 13.25% per annum. Concurrently with each quarterly interest payment the Company will pay to the holders additional interest, if any, based upon the amount by which the average gas spot price ("Average Spot Price") based upon spot gas prices published by Natural Gas Clearinghouse, Inc. exceeds $1.75 per million British Thermal Units (MMBTU) during a twelve-month period preceding such quarterly interest payment period up to a maximum overall interest rate of 15% per annum for the Senior GINs and 18% per annum for the Old Notes. At December 31, 1994, the twelve-month Average Spot Price was $1.77 per MMBTU resulting in an interest rate of 13.3% per annum for the period February 15, 1995 to May 14, 1995.
The Senior Secured Notes (i) rank pari passu with other senior debt of the Company (including bank debt and the Senior GINs) and rank senior to the Old Notes and the Company's 9% Convertible Subordinated Debentures Due 2015 (the "9% Debentures"), (ii) mature in 2000 and have no sinking fund requirements, (iii) bear interest at the rate of 11.5%, (iv) are secured by a lien on certain of the Company's oil and gas properties (the "Pledged Assets"), with the amount and type of such properties being subject to adjustment, based upon the value of the properties and certain other factors, and (v) are redeemable, at the option of
PRESIDIO OIL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
the Company, at the prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) and during the indicated years beginning September 15: 1996 - 103%; 1997 - 102%; 1998 - 101%; and 1999 - 100%. In accordance with the provisions of (iv) above, the Security Value (as defined below) of the Pledged Assets must be $93.8 million or more as of December 31, 1994 (with $78.8 million thereof being attributable to proved developed producing properties). See "Collateral Value Requirements for the Senior Secured Notes" below.
Convertible Subordinated Debentures
In February 1990 the Company issued $50,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the 9% Debentures. The 9% Debentures are currently convertible at any time prior to redemption or maturity into Class A Common Stock, at a conversion price per share of $9.38, subject to adjustment. The 9% Debentures will be redeemable through the operation of a mandatory sinking fund pursuant to which on March 15 in each of the years 2000 to 2014 (the "Redemption Period") 5% of the outstanding principal amount of the 9% Debentures will be redeemed at 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest. At its option, the Company may make additional sinking fund payments in amounts sufficient to redeem annually up to an additional 10% of the outstanding principal amount of the 9% Debentures. The 9% Debentures are redeemable, otherwise than through the mandatory sinking fund, at the Company's option, at 106% of their principal amount plus accrued interest through March 15, 1995, and thereafter reducing by 1% each year to 100% of their principal amount plus accrued interest at March 15, 2000 and thereafter.
Ability to Service Debt
Because of its current financial condition and operating cash flow deficit, the Company believes that, absent a restructuring of its debt, it will be unable to meet all of its interest payment obligations on the Senior Secured Notes, the Senior GINs and on the 9% Debentures as they become due subsequent to April 1, 1995. In addition, substantially all of the Company's oil and gas reserves are pledged to secure the Company's bank debt and the Senior Secured Notes, with the result that the Company is not able to sell such assets in order to fund the above-mentioned interest payments. The failure to make such payments would constitute a Default under each of the indentures governing the Senior Secured Notes, the Senior GINs and the 9% Debentures.
Each of these indentures provide a 30-day grace period in which the Company may cure a Default thereunder caused by the failure to pay interest before an Event of Default occurs. If the Company were to fail to pay any defaulted interest during the applicable grace period, then an Event of Default under each of the indentures would occur. If an Event of Default with respect to the Senior Secured Notes occurs, the outstanding $75 million of Senior Secured Notes could be declared to be immediately due and payable, and the trustee under the indenture governing the Senior Secured Notes (the "Senior Secured Notes Indenture") would be entitled to exercise various remedies, including foreclosure of a mortgage on a substantial portion of the Company's oil and gas properties. If an Event of Default with respect to the Senior GINs occurs, the outstanding $100 million of Senior GINs could be declared immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default occurs with respect to the 9% Debentures, the outstanding $50 million of 9% Debentures could also be declared due and payable.
PRESIDIO OIL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
In addition, the failure to pay interest on the Senior Secured Notes, the Senior GINs or the 9% Debentures would constitute a Default under the Credit Agreement and thus the Company would be prohibited from borrowing additional funds thereunder until such Default was cured. An Event of Default with respect to the Senior Secured Notes, the Senior GINs or the 9% Debentures would also cause an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, which could lead to the borrowings outstanding thereunder being declared immediately due and payable, and the subsequent foreclosure of a mortgage on substantially all of the Company's oil and gas properties not pledged to secure the Senior Secured Notes.
Collateral Value Requirement for the Senior Secured Notes
The Senior Secured Notes are secured by the Pledged Assets pursuant to a pledged assets agency agreement (the "Pledged Assets Agency Agreement"). The Pledged Assets Agency Agreement requires that, as of various dates, the Security Value (as defined below) of the Pledged Assets and the Security Value of the Pledged Assets that are proved developed producing reserves (the "Pledged Producing Assets") must be equal to or greater than certain specified percentages of the then outstanding amount of Senior Secured Notes. For the purposes of this discussion, "Security Value" means the aggregate present value (computed at a discount rate equal to 10% per annum) of the future net revenues of proved oil and gas reserves, calculated in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
On or before each March 31, the Company is required to calculate the Security Values of the Pledged Assets and the Pledged Producing Assets as of the preceding December 31. Because of the severe decline in gas prices during the second half of 1994, the Security Values of both the Pledged Assets and the Pledged Producing Assets as of December 31, 1994 were less than the required percentages, resulting in deficiencies (the "Deficiencies") in respect of Pledged Assets and Pledged Producing Assets of $4 million and $7.3 million, respectively. The Deficiencies may be cured if (i) prior to May 31, 1995, the Company pledges sufficient additional Pledged Assets and Pledged Producing Assets to eliminate the Deficiencies or purchases $7.3 million of the Senior Secured Notes or (ii) during the period April 1 - September 1, 1995, the Security Values of the Pledged Assets and the Pledged Producing Assets increase due to higher hydrocarbon prices or reserve volumes. The Company estimates that an increase in such Security Values sufficient to cure the Deficiencies would require an approximate $.50 per MCF rise in the price the Company receives for its natural gas over the average of $1.15 per MCF the Company received in February 1995. To the extent the Deficiencies are not so cured prior to May 31, 1995, then the Company is required, prior to June 30, 1995, to offer to purchase (the "Purchase Offer") at par an amount of Senior Secured Notes sufficient to cure the remaining Deficiencies.
The Company anticipates that it will pledge assets with a Security Value sufficient to cure most of the Deficiencies, and that the net amount of Senior Secured Notes that will be subject to the Purchase Offer would be up to approximately $2.5 million; however, a significant increase in hydrocarbon prices during the period that the Purchase Offer is open for acceptance (July 1 - August 31, 1995), which pricing increase is not currently anticipated by the Company, could reduce the amount of Senior Secured Notes that the Company would be required to purchase as a result of the Purchase Offer.
PRESIDIO OIL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
If the Company were to be unable to comply with any of the requirements described above in respect of curing the Deficiencies by the dates set forth for such compliance, the Company would be in Default under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture. If such a Default were to continue for more than 30 days without being cured, an Event of Default under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture would occur and the trustee under such indenture and the holders of Senior Secured Notes would have the remedies described above in respect of an Event of Default under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture. Such an Event of Default would also result in cross-defaults under the indentures relating to the Credit Agreement, the Senior GINs and the 9% Debentures. See "Ability to Service Debt" above.
3. INCOME TAXES
Actual tax expense differs from the statutory rate as shown below:
The components of the Company's tax assets and liabilities are shown below:
PRESIDIO OIL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
At December 31, 1994 the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes of approximately $232,683,000 expiring 1995 through 2009 if not previously utilized. The Company's net operating losses are subject to various restrictions that could significantly limit their utilization. The Company has investment tax credit carryforwards of approximately $537,000 expiring 1995 through 2000 if not previously utilized. The Company also has statutory depletion carryforwards of approximately $9,616,000 which may be carried forward until utilized.
4. COMMON STOCK
The Company has two classes of common stock, Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. Each share of Class B Common Stock is convertible into one share of Class A Common Stock. Both classes of common stock are $.10 par value per share. There are 80,000,000 authorized shares of Class A Common Stock and 20,000,000 authorized shares of Class B Common Stock.
From July 1987 through December 1992, the Company paid a quarterly cash dividend of $.025 on its Class A Common Stock. In January 1993 the Company announced the elimination of Class A Common Stock dividends. If cash dividends are paid on Class B Common Stock, a cash dividend must also be paid on Class A Common Stock in an amount equal to 110% of the per share amount of the cash dividend paid on Class B Common Stock. The Company's ability to pay dividends is subject to the provisions of certain covenants contained in the Credit Agreement and the indentures relating to the Senior GINs and the Old Notes. Holders of Class A Common Stock are entitled to one-twentieth of one vote per share and holders of Class B Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share.
The Class B Common Stock is subject to certain restrictions on transfer designed to prevent the sale of "control blocks" of Class B Common Stock at a premium price not available to all holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock. No transfer of Class B Common Stock may be made (i) if the transferee thereof would, as a result of such transfer, have acquired from such transferor, within the last twelve months, in excess of 15% of the total voting power of all outstanding shares of the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock, (a "Control Block"), and (ii) if any of the shares held by the transferee comprising the Control Block were acquired by such transferee within twelve months of the proposed transfer at a price in excess of the market price when acquired; unless such transferee, concurrently with the proposed transfer, offers to purchase all of the outstanding shares of both the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock at a price not less than the highest price per share paid, within twelve months of the proposed transfers by such transferee, to the transferor with respect to any of the shares comprising the Control Block. Presidio can refuse to recognize any transfer of shares made in violation of this limitation, including for purposes of voting and dividend rights, and to require the sale of any such shares. Except for this limitation, shares of both the Class A Common Stock and the Class B Common Stock are freely transferable.
In the fiscal year ended June 30, 1986, George P. Giard, Jr., Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, purchased for $90,000 a warrant to acquire 120,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $4.00 per share which was the market value of the common stock on the date of purchase. Such warrant, which expires in 1997, has been subsequently adjusted for a 10% stock dividend and during 1993 was amended and restated such that the warrant now provides for the acquisition of 94,091 shares of Class B Common Stock and 9,409 shares of Class A Common Stock at a price of $3.64 per share and 16,206 shares of Class B Common Stock and 1,621 shares of Class A Common Stock at $2.50 per share.
PRESIDIO OIL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
During the six month period ended December 31, 1987, George P. Giard, Jr., and Robert L. Smith, President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company, purchased warrants from the Company for $75,000 and $40,000, respectively. These warrants, which expire in 1997, were to acquire 75,000 shares and 40,000 shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.625 per share, which equalled or exceeded the market value of such stock on the date of purchase. During 1993 Mr. Giard's and Mr. Smith's warrants were amended and restated and now provide for Mr. Giard to acquire 46,912 shares of Class B Common Stock at $2.50 per share and Mr. Smith to acquire 20,000 shares of Class B Common Stock at $4.625 per share and 10,811 shares of Class B Common Stock at $2.50 per share.
During 1993 Christopher S. Hardesty, Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, purchased for $2,000 a warrant to acquire 15,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.0625 per share, which equalled or exceeded the market value of such stock on the date of purchase. This warrant expires ten years after the date of purchase.
The Company also has issued warrants to acquire: (i) 150,000 shares of Class A Common Stock at $7.125 per share which expire in 1999; and (ii) 50,000 shares of Class B Common Stock at $4.625 per share which expire in 1997.
5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In connection with the sale of Mountain Gas Resources ("MGRI") (see Note 10), George P. Giard, Jr. and Robert L. Smith entered into consulting agreements with MGRI which provided for Mr. Giard and Mr. Smith to provide consulting services to MGRI for a minimum period of two years; and, in respect of such consulting services, they each received options to purchase 6,000 shares of Class A Common Stock of MGRI at an exercise price of $60.00 per share. In July 1993 Mr. Giard and Mr. Smith each received proceeds of $281,000 as a result of the sale of such options in connection with the MGRI Equity Sale.
See Note 4 for information as to the purchase of warrants from the Company by certain of the Company's officers.
6. BENEFIT PLANS
On May 17, 1990 the Company's stockholders amended the 1985 Incentive and Non-Qualified Stock Option and Stock Appreciation Rights Plan. Under such amended plan, options to purchase up to 6,000,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock may be granted to key employees at an exercise price not less than the market price of the stock at the date of grant. The amended plan also allows for the issuance of stock appreciation rights in conjunction with the issuance of options to key employees and provides for granting of non-qualified stock options or incentive stock options. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors determines the number of options and exercise prices under which stock options or stock appreciation rights are issued. At December 31, 1994, no stock appreciation rights had been granted. The stock options either: (i) vest incrementally over four years; or (ii) vest after one year but are not exercisable until the earlier of December 26, 1995 or the date the closing price of the Company's Class B Common Stock has been $6.00 per share or greater for sixty consecutive trading days.
PRESIDIO OIL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
The Company's stockholders approved Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plans which granted options to purchase up to 200,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock and 267,100 shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock to non-employee directors. Stock options granted under these plans: (i) vest incrementally over four years; or (ii) vest after one year but are not exercisable until the earlier of December 26, 1995 or the date the closing price of the Company's Class B Common Stock has been $6.00 per share or greater for sixty consecutive trading days. These options were granted at an exercise price of not less than the market price of the stock on the date of grant and expire after ten years.
At December 31, 1994 and 1993 options to purchase shares of common stock were as follows:
(1) No options have been exercised under either the Incentive Stock Option Plan or the Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plans during the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992. (2) Of which at December 31, 1994 and 1993 options to purchase 277,000 shares and 287,000 shares, respectively, of Class B Common Stock are not exercisable until the earlier of December 26, 1995, or the date the Company's Class B Common Stock has been $6.00 per share or greater for sixty consecutive trading days. (3) Of which at December 31, 1994 and 1993 options to purchase 75,000 shares and 90,000 shares, respectively, of Class B Common Stock are not exercisable until the earlier of December 26, 1995, or the date the Company's Class B Common Stock has been $6.00 per share or greater for sixty consecutive trading days.
The Company has an Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("ESOP") which allows the Company to make contributions as determined each year by the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. The ESOP is leveraged with loans provided by the Company. During 1994 the Company repriced all of the unallocated shares of the Company's Common Stock held by the ESOP at $1.75 per share and, thus, reduced the ESOP loans by $4,481,000. Shares are allocated to participants based on the principal payments made each year in respect of such loans by the ESOP. All full-time employees are eligible to participate in the ESOP. The amount charged to general and administrative expense in connection with the ESOP for the year ended December 31, 1992 was based upon the historical cost paid by the ESOP for the shares contributed to the participant accounts during such years. Effective January 1, 1993 the Company adopted a new method of accounting for the ESOP which requires the amounts charged to expense (which is associated with the shares contributed each year to the participants' accounts) to be based on the market price of the Company's Common Stock, with the difference between the historical cost paid (or for the year ended December 31, 1994 the repriced amount of $1.75 per share) by the ESOP for such shares and the average market price of the Company's Common Stock, to be charged to additional paid-in capital. The total amounts charged to general and administrative expense in connection with the ESOP for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, were $300,000, $256,000 and $1,056,000, respectively.
PRESIDIO OIL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
At December 31, 1994 and 1993 the ESOP held the following shares of Common Stock:
The fair market value of the unallocated shares of Common Stock held for future contributions totaled $800,000 and $3,300,000 at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
On January 1, 1994 the Company adopted a 401(k) Plan for all full-time employees. The 401(k) Plan allows for voluntary employee contributions and for discretionary Company contributions as determined each year by the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. The total amount charged to general and administrative expense in 1994 in connection with the 401(k) Plan was $416,000.
In 1993 the Company adopted a non-qualified supplemental employee retirement plan ("SERP") that provides certain officers with defined retirement benefits in excess of qualified plan limits imposed by federal tax law. At December 31, 1994 the SERP (which is unfunded) included vested benefits of $154,000 and non-vested benefits of $209,000, resulting in an accumulated benefit obligation of $363,000. The projected benefit obligation at December 31, 1994 totaled $1,259,000, which when reduced by unrecognized prior service cost of $659,000, results in a net accrued liability at December 31, 1994 of $600,000. Net pension expense for the years ended December 31, 1994 and 1993 totaled $418,000 and $182,000, respectively.
7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company has lease commitments for various office facilities and computer equipment. Future minimum annual rental payments required under such leases for the years ending December 31, 1995 through 1999 will be $1,226,000, $848,000, $672,000, $535,000 and $134,000, respectively. Rental expense for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 totaled $1,011,000, $1,025,000 and $1,291,000, respectively.
See Note 11 concerning the letter of credit that the Company entered into in connection with the sale of its West Virginia proved developed reserves and associated gathering systems.
PRESIDIO OIL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
8. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107 requires disclosure in respect of the fair value of various financial instruments owned or issued by the Company. The estimated fair values of such financial instruments are as follows:
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value for each class of financial instruments:
(1) The fair value is an estimate and does not necessarily represent the amount that would be paid in an actual sale. (2) The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. (3) The carrying amount approximates fair value because such debt is secured by a portion of the Company's oil and gas assets and bears interest at the prime rate plus 1% which approximates current market conditions. (4) The fair value was estimated based on quoted market prices. (5) The fair value was estimated based on the fees to be incurred in connection with the letters of credit since, under present circumstances, no amounts will be required to be drawn against such letters of credit.
9. MAJOR PURCHASERS
The Company had sales to two purchasers which accounted for in excess of 10% of the Company's oil and gas revenues during 1994, 1993 and 1992. Sales to one of such purchasers totaled $13,688,000 (34%), $11,541,000 (24%) and $9,088,000 (14%) for 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively, and sales to the other purchaser totaled $5,728,000 (14%), $9,078,000 (19%) and $12,423,000 (19%) for 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. A discontinuance of oil and gas sales to these two purchasers would not have a material impact on the Company's operations because the Company believes that a number of other companies are available to purchase its oil and gas production.
10. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In July 1992 the Company completed a transaction with MS Gas Resources, Inc., a newly-formed subsidiary of The Morgan Stanley Leveraged Equity Fund II, L.P. (the "Morgan Stanley Fund"), pursuant to which the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Mountain Gas Resources, Inc., was merged into MS Gas Resources (the "MGRI Divestiture") whose name was then changed to Mountain Gas Resources, Inc. ("MGRI"). Prior to the MGRI Divestiture, Mountain Gas Resources owned and operated all of the Company's natural gas gathering and processing facilities in the Green River Basin in southwestern Wyoming and marketed natural gas and natural gas liquids. The cash consideration received in the MGRI Divestiture was $80.7 million; and, as adjusted for working capital, capital expenditures and other items, resulted in net cash proceeds of $77.5 million which was used to prepay an equivalent amount of bank debt. Also, in connection with the MGRI Divestiture, the Company received an equity interest in MGRI. Such interest provided the Company with the right to share in any profits realized upon a subsequent sale of MGRI prior to December 31, 1996. In July 1993 the Company received $11.6 million from the sale (the "MGRI Equity Sale") of such equity interest in
PRESIDIO OIL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
MGRI. The proceeds of the MGRI Equity Sale were used to prepay an equivalent amount of the Company's bank debt.
The MGRI Divestiture and the MGRI Equity Sale have been recorded as a sale of a segment of the Company's business. Accordingly, the gas gathering, processing and marketing operations of Mountain Gas Resources prior to the MGRI Divestiture (which includes interest expense of $3,376,000 for the year ended December 31, 1992, that was associated with the $77.5 million of bank debt that was repaid with the net cash proceeds of the MGRI Divestiture), as well as the gain on the sale of the MGRI Divestiture and the MGRI Equity Sale have been reflected in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations as discontinued operations. Such discontinued operations had revenues of $38,301,000 for the year ended December 31, 1992 (including $941,000 of intercompany sales).
11. WEST VIRGINIA PROPERTY SALE
In December 1992 the Company completed the sale of the common stock of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Peake Energy, Inc. and Peake Operating Company (the "Subsidiaries"), to Belden & Blake Acquisition, Inc. ("Belden & Blake"). The proceeds of the transaction totaled $35 million; and, after adjustments for capital expenditures, net operating cash flow and other items, the net cash proceeds were $32.6 million, which were utilized to repay bank and other indebtedness of the Company. The Subsidiaries held assets which included approximately 43 BCF of proved developed gas reserves and associated gathering systems, as well as 50,000 barrels of oil reserves located in West Virginia.
The Company retained approximately 28 BCF of proved undeveloped gas reserves and over 90,000 net undeveloped acres in West Virginia subsequent to the sale, and such reserves and acreage will be developed by the Company and Belden & Blake in accordance with a joint drilling participation agreement. This agreement gives Belden & Blake the option to participate, to the extent of 50% of the Company's interest (or more by mutual consent), in the development of such reserves and acreage. The consideration for Belden & Blake's participation in each well drilled pursuant to the joint drilling participation agreement is (i) payment of its share of drilling and completion costs, (ii) payment to the Company of an additional $90 per net acre for its share of the drillsite acreage allocated to each such well and (iii) payment to the Company of an overriding royalty of 3.125% (proportionately reduced) in accordance with its net interest in the revenues attributable to each such well. The Company believes that, subject to the availability of funds, virtually all of its proved undeveloped gas reserves and unproved undeveloped acreage will be fully developed prior to the termination of the joint drilling participation agreement in 2008; however, the agreement provides that 50% of any such reserves and/or acreage that might be retained by the Company as of such termination date would be conveyed to Belden & Blake for no additional consideration.
A portion of the gas reserves sold to Belden & Blake is subject to a long-term gas contract providing for prices above the current spot market price for West Virginia gas. In connection with the sale, the Company guaranteed certain minimum levels of performance, on an annual basis, by the gas purchaser under this contract such that should performance under this contract be less than the levels guaranteed by the Company, Belden & Blake can draw on a letter of credit entered into by the Company. During the years ending April 1, 1995 through 1999, respectively, the following amounts can be drawn by Belden & Blake on such letter of credit: $1,877,000, $1,790,000, $1,735,000, $1,692,000 and $1,656,000.

12. EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO DECEMBER 31, 1994
Property Sales
On March 1, 1995 the Company realized $12.5 million of net cash proceeds as the result of the sale of certain oil and gas properties. Approximately $5 million of the net cash proceeds from this sale was utilized to prepay indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Facility and the remaining $7.5 million was added to the Company's working capital.
13. OIL AND GAS COST AND RESERVE INFORMATION
Capitalized Costs Related to Oil and Gas Producing Activities
The Company's oil and gas operations are conducted entirely in the United States. Aggregate capitalized costs relating to such operations and related accumulated depletion, depreciation and amortization are as follows:
(1) The total as of December 31, 1994 is comprised of costs incurred during 1994, 1993, 1992 and prior to 1992 of $6.2 million, $2.1 million, $3.8 million and $11.7 million, respectively.

Costs Incurred in Oil and Gas Producing Activities
Costs incurred in oil and gas operations and related depletion, depreciation and amortization per equivalent barrel are as follows:
Estimated Quantities of Proved Oil and Gas Reserves (Unaudited)
The reserve information presented below is based upon reports reviewed by the Company's independent petroleum engineering firm. Reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and estimates of new discoveries 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 are the estimated quantities of oil, gas and natural gas liquids which geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Proved developed oil and gas reserves are those expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods.
PRESIDIO OIL COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued)
Net quantities of proved reserves and proved developed reserves of oil (including condensate and natural gas liquids) and gas for the Company as of the beginning and the end of the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, as well as the changes in proved reserves during such periods, are set forth in the tables below.
(1) Includes proved undeveloped gas reserves at December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 of 26.1 BCF, 27.5 BCF and 28.1 BCF, respectively, which are subject to a joint drilling participation agreement as discussed in Note 11. (2) Includes proved reserves sold subsequent to December 31, 1994 of 18 BCF of gas and .3 MMBbls of oil, of which 12.7 BCF of gas and .2 MMBbls of oil were proved developed reserves.

Discounted Future Net Cash Flows Relating to Proved Oil and Gas Reserves (Unaudited)
Future net cash flows presented below are computed using period-end prices and costs with consideration of price changes only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements. Future income tax expenses are estimated after consideration of statutory tax rates, permanent differences and tax credits. Future general and administrative expenses and interest expense have not been considered.
(1) Includes proved undeveloped gas reserves at December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 with a present value of future net revenues discounted at 10% of $2,294,000, $3,260,000 and $10,857,000, respectively, which are subject to a joint drilling participation agreement as discussed in Note 11. (2) Includes proved reserves sold subsequent to December 31, 1994 having future net revenues before income taxes, discounted at 10% per annum, of $19.2 million. (3) The ability of the Company to maintain and/or increase current levels of oil and gas production and to find and develop new proved reserves of oil and gas to replace the reserves being produced in 1995 depends on the availability of funds for capital expenditures. Due to the Company's current financial condition and operating cash flow deficit, the Company has limited funds available for development and other drilling operations during 1995. Unless the Company is able to restructure its debt and thus provide for significant amounts of capital expenditures in 1995, the Company's production and volumes of proved oil and gas reserves could decline significantly during 1995 and would result in a reduction in discounted future net cash flows.

The following are the principal sources of change in the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows, after tax.

14.SELECTED QUARTERLY FINANCIAL INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)
(1) Due to low oil and gas prices which were being received during this period, the Company was required to reduce the carrying value of its oil and gas properties (see Note 1). (2) Includes a $7.8 million gain on the divestiture of the Company's discontinued gas gathering, processing and marketing operations (see Note 10). (3) Includes a $11.6 million gain on the sale of the Company's remaining equity interest in its discontinued gas gathering, processing and marketing operations (see Note 10).
