7 PYRAMID OIL COMPANY
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2003
(UNAUDITED)
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements include the accounts of Pyramid Oil Company (the
Company). Such financial statements included herein have been prepared by the
Company, without an audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the
disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
A summary of the Company's significant accounting policies is contained in its
December 31, 2002 Form 10-KSB which is incorporated herein by reference. The
financial data presented herein should be read in conjunction with the
Company's December 31, 2002 financial statements and notes thereto, contained
in the Company's Form 10-KSB.
In the opinion of the Company, the unaudited financial statements, contained
herein, include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's
financial position as of March 31, 2003 and the results of its operations and
its cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2002. The
results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for a full year.
(2) DIVIDENDS
No cash dividends were paid during the three months ended March 31, 2003 and
2002.
(3) COMMITMENTS
During 1998, the Company entered into a joint venture project, with several
other oil and gas companies, to explore for and develop potential natural gas
reserves in the Solano County area of California. This project is employing
3-D seismic technology and exploratory drilling, in hopes of finding and
developing natural gas reserves on approximately 3,200 acres of leased ground.
The Company's position is that of a non-operator.
Drilling operations on the first well began early in the first quarter of
2000. This well encountered substantial mechanical problems prior to reaching
its intended depth and was abandoned due to these problems. The Company
participated in the drilling of a second well on this lease in the fourth
quarter of 2000. This well was abandoned due to insufficient gas reserves.
The Company has not made any decisions about participating in any future
proposed exploration wells on this project. The Company expended
approximately $18,000 for its share of costs on the first well during 1999,
8
and expended an additional $15,000 during 2000. The Company expended
approximately $18,000 for its share of costs on the second well during 2000.
These costs are recorded in Operating Costs on the Statements of Operations.
The Company agreed to participate in the drilling of a third natural gas well
in conjunction with the same operator in a new prospect area located in
Solano County. This well commenced drilling in the fourth quarter of 2001 and
was abandoned due to inadequate gas reserves. The Company's share of the
prospect fee and drilling costs for this new well were approximately $36,000
during the fourth quarter of 2001 and $3,100 in the first quarter of 2002.
The costs for the third well are recorded in Costs and Expenses on the
Statements of Operations. A fourth well has not been proposed by the joint
venture operator.
The Company has entered into various employment agreements with key executive
employees. In the event the key executives are dismissed, the Company would
incur approximately $1,042,000 in costs.
(4) OTHER INCOME
The Company disposed of a well servicing rig in the first Quarter of 2002 with
a net book value of $10,100. The Company received approximately $16,000 as a
settlement of lease oil antitrust litigation, also in the first quarter of
2002.
(5) INCOME TAX PROVISION
The Company's income tax provision consists mainly of current minimum taxes
for California and New York. The Company is utilizing its significant net
operating loss carryforwards to offset Federal income taxes.
(6) CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143,
''Accounting for Assets Retirement Obligations'', effective January 1, 2003,
the Company changed its method of accounting for asset retirement obligations
(ARO) relating to well abandonment costs from expensing such costs in the year
the wells are abandoned to recording a liability when such costs are incurred
in order to provide a better matching of revenue and expenses and to improve
interim financial reporting.
Upon adoption of SFAS 143, the Company was required to recognize a liability
for the present value of all legal obligations associated with the retirement
of tangible long-lived assets and an asset retirement cost was capitalized as
part of the carrying value of the associated asset. Upon initial application
of SFAS 143, a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle was also
required in order to recognize a liability for any existing ARO's adjusted for
cumulative accretion, an increase to the carrying amount of the associated
long-lived asset and accumulated depreciation on the capitalized cost.
9
Subsequent to initial measurement, liabilities are required to be accreted to
their present value each period and capitalized costs are depreciated over the
estimated useful life of the related assets. Upon settlement of the liability,
the Company will settle the obligation against its recorded amount and will
record any resulting gain or loss. As a result of the adoption of SFAS 143 on
January 1, 2003, the Company recorded a $272,849 increase in the net
capitalized cost of its oil and gas properties.
The effect of these changes for the quarter ending March 31, 2003, resulted in
a decrease in income from continuing operations of $5,945. The cumulative
effect of these changes on years prior to January 1, 2003, approximately
$810,115 ($0.23 per common share), has been charged to operations in 2003.
The effect on net income of this change in accounting methods is as follows:
Amount Per Share
-------- ---------
Cumulative effect to January 1, 2003 $(810,115) $(0.23)
Effect on three months ended March 31, 2003 (5,945) --
Pro Forma effect on three months
ended March 31, 2002:
As reported $(73,858) $(0.03)
Pro Forma (79,607) (0.03)
There are no legally restricted assets for the settlement of asset retirement
obligations.
A reconciliation of the Company's asset retirement obligations from the
periods presented are as follows:
Amount
-------
Beginning Balance, January 1, 2003 $882,885
Incurred during the period --
Settled during the period --
Accretion expense 4,811

Ending Balance, March 31, 2003 $887,696

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
IMPACT OF CHANGING PRICES
The Company's revenue is affected by crude oil prices paid by the major oil
companies. Average crude oil prices for the first quarter of 2003 increased
by approximately $13.68 per equivalent barrel when compared with the same
period for 2002. During the first quarter of 2003 the Company experienced 56
separate price changes compared with 24 price changes during the same period
for 2002. The Company cannot predict the future course of crude oil prices.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash increased by $177,639 for the three months ended March 31, 2003. During
the first quarter of 2003, operating activities increased cash by $196,311.
Capital spending of $7,343 and principal payments on long-term debt totaling
$11,329, reduced cash for the first quarter of 2003. See the Statements of
Cash Flows for additional detailed information. A $100,000 line of credit,
unused at March 31, 2003, provided additional liquidity during the first
quarter of 2003.
FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION
The Company's average crude oil price has decreased by approximately $2.50 per
barrel since March 31, 2003.
Portions of the Quarterly Report, including Management's Discussion and
Analysis, contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the "safe
harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors that may cause the Company's actual results
and performance in future periods to be materially different from any future
results or performance suggested in forward-looking statements in this
release. Such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this
report and the Company expressly disclaims any obligation to update or revise
any forward-looking statements found herein to reflect any changes in Company
expectations or results or any change in events. Factors that could cause
results to differ materially include, but are not limited to: the timing and
extent of changes in commodity prices of oil, gas and electricity,
environmental risk, drilling and operational costs, uncertainties about
estimates of reserves and government regulations.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Based on their evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures as of a date within 90 days of the filing of this Report, the Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that such
controls and procedures are effective. There were no significant changes in
the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly
affect such controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
11
ANALYSIS OF SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2003
COMPARED TO THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2002
REVENUES
Oil and gas revenue increased by 90% for the three months ended March 31, 2003
when compared with the same period for 2002. Oil and gas revenue increased by
84% due to higher average crude oil prices for the first quarter of 2003.
The average price of the Company's oil and gas for the first quarter of 2003
increased by approximately $13.70 per equivalent barrel when compared to the
same period of 2002. Revenues also increased by 6% due to higher production
of crude oil. The Company's net revenue share of crude oil production
increased by approximately 1,000 barrels for the first three months of 2003.
The increase in crude oil production is primarily the result of the Company's
acquisition, effective April 1, 2002, of a 36.5% working interest in three oil
and gas properties in the Carneros Creek field (the Company previously owned
63.5% of the working interest).
OPERATING EXPENSES
Operating expenses increased by 6% for the first quarter of 2003. The cost
to produce an equivalent barrel of crude oil during the first quarter of
2003 remained unchanged at approximately $14.00 per barrel when compared with
the production costs for the first quarter of 2002. The increase in operating
expenses for the first quarter of 2003 is due primarily to the difference
between the quarterly crude oil inventory adjustments. During the first
quarter of 2002, the crude oil inventory adjustment reduced operating expenses
by approximately $19,000. The crude oil inventory adjustment for the first
quarter of 2003 reduced operating expenses by approximately $4,800.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE
General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately 7% for the
first three months of 2003 when compared with the same period for 2002.
There were minor reductions in several cost categories that combined to
generate the overall favorable reduction in general and administrative
expenses, no single variance was significant.
PROVISION FOR DEPLETION, DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
The provision for depletion, depreciation and amortization decreased by 2%
for the first quarter of 2003, when compared with the same period for 2002.
The decrease is due primarily to the decrease in the depletion rate. The
depletion rate decreased as a result of an increase in the estimated oil and
gas reserves.
12
OTHER INCOME
Interest income decreased due primarily to the decline in interest rates. The
Company disposed of a well servicing rig in the first Quarter of 2002 with
a net book value of $10,100. The Company received approximately $16,000 as a
settlement of lease oil antitrust litigation, also in the first quarter of
2002.
INCOME TAX PROVISION
The Company's income tax provision consists mainly of current minimum taxes
for California and New York. The Company is utilizing its significant net
operating loss carryforwards to offset Federal income taxes.
