Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
Liquidity and Capital Resources:
The quarter ended March 31, 1999 was an eventful quarter for the Company in building a cash balance in the Company. During this quarter the Company raised, through private placements of its common stock to accredited investors, $150,000 for 333,334 shares of restricted common stock. Cash on hand increased from $4,352 on December 31, 1998 to $127,494 on March 31, 1999. Subsequent to March 31, 1999, the Company sold an additional 634,892 shares for $406,250 in cash to accredited investors. In addition to the shares issued for cash subsequent to the end of this current quarter the Company issued 346,719 restricted common shares for oil and gas leases, 99,000 shares for settlement of a legal issue and 1,101,229 restricted common shares for services.
During the three months ended March 31, 1999 the Company resolved the outstanding litigation from a group of shareholders, from the 1980's on a claim for stock in the Company. The Company resolved this litigation by issuing 2,602,500 shares of the Company's common stock. The Company accounted for this issuance on an accrual basis and is reported in the 1998 10KSB.
More than eighty percent (80%) of the Company's assets is cash on March 31, 1999 compared to less than 25% on December 31, 1998. This improvement in liquidity is attributable to the sale of shares through a limited number of private placements mentioned above. Additional funding is planned during the remainder of the year to expand the Company's operations.
Subsequent to March 31, 1999 the Company changed its name from Kit Karson Corporation to Ness Energy International, Inc. The effective date of the name change was made on July 6, 1999 and the symbol of the stock also changed on this same day from "KTKC" to "NESS".
Revenues:
The revenues from gas sales have been fairly constant during the past year with a very nominal decline in sales due mostly to gas prices. Gas revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1999 were $5,124 compared to $6,317 for the same period ended March 31, 1998. The decrease in gas sales were caused from lower gas sales as certain wells were needing reworking. The revenues come from the Company's interest in a group of wells known as the Greenwood Gas Field in which the Company holds a 25% working interest.
Subsequent to the end of the quarter ended March 31, 1999, the Company, in conjunction with the other working interest holders, began a stimulation and re-working program on two of the wells in the Greenwood Field. The results of these work programs increased gas production on one of the wells and little to no effect on another well. The Company will continue to monitor the progress of these work programs to maximize production during the winter months when the gas prices are projected to be optimum.
Expenses:
The Company entered into four agreements with Hesed Energy International, Inc. where Hesed would provide certain services on a turnkey flat rate basis. These agreements were entered into with an effective date of January 1, 1998 for a two-year period that expires on December 31, 1999. The following is a list of these services and the amount of monthly consideration for said services:
Management including office staff $2,750 Office Rent 350 Telephone equipment and Long Distance 150 Copier 100
Subsequent to the end of this quarter, a new agreement is under consideration to adjust the above stated flat rate fees. The new agreement will be based on a revised schedule which is now being evaluated.
In addition to the general and administrative expenses mentioned above, the balance of the expenses incurred by the Company is attributable to the cost of lease operations on the Greenwood Gas Field. These costs generally do not fluctuate unless additional work is required or repairs are made. Compression charges are based on the amount of gas produced where production taxes and lease operating expenses are fairly flat.
Total operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1999 were $26,308 compared to $40,422 for the same period ended March 31, 1998. The decrease $14,114 in total operating expenses from March 31, 1998 to March 31, 1999 is due to a decrease in General and Administrative Expenses, related to personnel costs for the preparation and mailings necessary for the annual meeting held in June 1998.
Results of Operations:
Operating losses and net losses incurred for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 was $21,184 compared to $34,105 for the quarter ended March 31, 1998.
No share data was reported, as the number of shares divided into the nominal net loss was less than one cent per share.
Year 2000
The Company has conducted a comprehensive review of its computer systems to identify the systems that could be affected by the "Year 2000" issue. The "Year 2000" problem is the result of computer programs being written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any programs that have time-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a major system failure or miscalculations. The Company believes that all of its software and equipment are "Year 2000" compliant and that this problem will have no affect on the Company's internal operations
