COMPRESSCO, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.          ORGANIZATION

Compressco, Inc., formerly Emerging Alpha Corporation (the "Company"), was incorporated in the State of Delaware on February 10, 1993, for the purpose of creating a corporate vehicle to seek, investigate and, if the results of such investigations warrant, acquire business opportunities. Prior to October 1999, the primary activity of the Company had been devoted to organizational activities and obtaining initial funding. Upon investigation and analysis by the Company's management, the Company decided to enter certain segments of the natural gas industry including equipment manufacturing, compression services and production of natural gas reserves.

On October 29, 1999, the Company purchased all outstanding shares of the capital stock of Gas Jack Inc. ("Gas Jack"), an Oklahoma corporation, for $2.7 million and all outstanding units of GJ Measurement, L.L.C. ("GJ Measurement") in exchange for 33,333 shares of the Company's common stock. Both acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The Company did not recognize any goodwill as a result of these acquisitions. Subsequent to the acquisition, both Gas Jack and Gas Jack Measurement are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. In connection with the acquisitions, the Company changed its fiscal year-end from March 31 to December 31.

The Company, through Gas Jack, is engaged primarily in the manufacture, rental and service of natural gas compressors that provide economical well head compression to mature, low pressure natural gas wells. The Company's compressors are currently sold and rented to natural gas producers located primarily in Oklahoma, Kansas, Texas, Arkansas and New Mexico. Compressco Testing L.L.C. is a natural gas measurement, testing and service company, based in Oklahoma City, that began operations in September 1999.

The Company has established in January 2000 a wholly owned energy production subsidiary, Providence Natural Gas, Inc., (Providence) to acquire certain pressure depleted reservoirs, having key reservoir characteristics known to be receptive to well-head compression. The Company plans to install compressors at the sites to enhance production and then market and sell the natural gas. Providence has acquired interest in one natural gas well. Due to the high cost of gas it is cost prohibitive to acquire gas producing properties at this time. Therefore, the Company is not pursuing further development of Providence at this time.

2.          BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2001 and the consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, such financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

The consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2000 was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The consolidated financial statements presented herein should be read in connection with the Company's December 31, 2000 consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Form 10-KSB.

The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2001.


3.          CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATE

Effective July 1, 2000, the Company changed its estimate of the useful life and salvage value of its compressors for purposes of computing depreciation. The estimated useful life and salvage value of its compressors was changed from seven years with no salvage to twelve years with a ten percent salvage. Based upon the Company's data relating to the service history of its compressor fleet, the Company believes that the new estimated useful life and salvage value more accurately reflects the service life of its compressor fleet. The change is accounted for prospectively. The effect of the change in accounting estimate was as follows for the three month period ended March 31, 2001.

 

Depreciation expense decreased by

4.          LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term debt consists of the following at March 31, 2001:

(a)

On December 22, 2000, the Company offered an issue of 13% subordinated promissory notes and stock warrants (see Note 6) to qualified private investors. At March 31, 2001, $5,500,000 of the subordinated promissory notes were issued. Of the $5,500,000 in proceeds, $100,000 was allocated to the stock warrants. The notes are subordinated unsecured obligations of the Company and rank subordinate to all existing indebtedness of the Company. The Notes mature on the earlier of (1) the consummation of an underwritten public offering of the Company's capital stock or (2) December 31, 2003. The Company may, at any time prepay any part of the principal balance on the Notes, in increments of $10,000, without premium or penalty prior to maturity. Interest is payable at 13% per annum and is payable quarterly in arrears commencing on March 31, 2001.

 

 

(b)

On October 29, 1999, the Company borrowed $2,800,000 under a term loan agreement with a bank. The note bears interest at a fixed rate of 8.8%. Principal payments of $46,667 plus accrued interest are due monthly until maturity on October 30, 2004. The loan balance at March 31, 2001 is $2,053,317 of which $1,446,646 is long term. The loan is secured with the assets and compressor leases of the Company and a personal guarantee of the Company's President.

 

 

(c)

On October 29, 1999, the Company entered into a revolving line of credit agreement with a bank. Under the agreement, as amended December 28, 2000, the Company can borrow the lesser of $7,500,000 or the sum of 80% of the aggregate amount of eligible receivables, plus 50% of the aggregate amount of eligible inventory, plus 85% of the appraised value of compressors fabricated since acquisition of the business on October 29, 1999. The line of credit bears interest at Wall Street Journal Prime Rate (8.0% at March 31, 2001). Interest is due monthly with all outstanding borrowings due at maturity on December 27, 2003. The loan is secured with the assets and compressor leases of the Company and a personal guarantee of the Company's President. The balance outstanding under the line of credit agreement at March 31, 2001 was $2,713,493. The Company's credit facility imposes a number of financial and restrictive covenants that among things, limit the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens and pay dividends. At March 31, 2001, the Company was in violation of two of its loan covenant ratios. Subsequent to March 31, 2001, the Company's has received a waiver from its lender for these covenant violations. Management expects that the Company will be in compliance with the covenants under the credit facility for the next twelve months.


5.          COMMITMENTS

The Company entered into a purchase agreement on December 14, 2000, with a supplier to purchase 1,000 compressor engines by December 31, 2002. At March 31, 2001 the Company has taken delivery of 123 engines from the supplier. The purchase agreement provides that the Company's liability to the supplier for any failure to purchase the full amount of engines is limited to (i) pay for the engines delivered, (ii) reasonable direct out of pocket cost incurred by the supplier in acquiring material for production of the number of engines contemplated by the agreement and (iii) the reasonable costs incurred by the supplier for the work in progress at the time of termination of the agreement including labor costs and reasonable quantities of parts and materials ordered by the supplier.

6.          STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

In connection with the offering of the subordinated promissory notes discussed in Note 4, the Company issued stock warrants to purchase 420 shares of the Company's common stock per every $50,000 amount of Notes purchased. The warrants have an exercise price of $120 per share. At March 31, 2001 total stock warrants of 46,200 had been issued. The warrants are exercisable upon issue, and expire on December 31, 2003.

The Company obtained a valuation as to the amount to be assigned to the warrants from the total proceeds received from the issuance of the subordinated promissory notes. The value was determined using the Valrex model, which is an option valuation model that uses established option pricing theory to price nontrading options and warrants. Based on the valuation estimate, the value assigned to the warrants is $100,000. This amount is shown as outstanding warrants in stockholders' equity and as a discount to the subordinated promissory notes. The discount is being amortized over the three-year life of the stock warrants as additional interest expense. The effective interest rate on the Notes is 13.84% when the value of the warrants is taken into consideration.

7.          EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares issued and outstanding during the period. The weighted average shares issued and outstanding for the three months ending March 31, 2001 and 2000 were 153,235 and 95,541 respectively. The fully diluted weighted average shares for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 were 164,860 and 114,541, respectively.

ITEM 2.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

In October 1999, the Company purchased a privately held natural gas compressor manufacturing and service company, Gas Jack, for $2.7 million in cash, and also purchased GJ Measurement in exchange for 33,333 shares of the Company's common stock. These acquisitions were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. In connection with the acquisitions, the Company's fiscal year end was changed from March 31 to December 31.

The following table sets forth selected consolidated financial information for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000 and as of March 31, 2001 and for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 and is qualified in its entirety by the consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-QSB.

The Company had 462 compressors in service at March 31, 2001 compared to 210 at March 31, 2000. In the three months ended March 31, 2001 the Company sold three compressors compared to selling four units in 2000. The increase in activity was primarily due to the increased price of natural gas in 2001 over 2000.

The cost of sales and operating expenses for the 2001 period were $1,492,918, or 73% of operating revenues, compared to $781,480 or 74%, in the 2000 period. Operating expenses for the 2001 period were $1,360,163, or 75% of rental and service revenues, compared to $647,868, or 76% for the 2000 period. Operating expenses in the 2000 period include $32,916 of start up expenses related to Providence Natural Gas, Inc.

The Company manufactured 100 compressors in the 2001 period compared to 32 in the 2000 period. The increase in the number of compressors was due to higher demand as a result of higher natural gas prices in 2001.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased in the 2001 period to $266,622 compared to $171,120 for the 2000 period. The increase is due to the increase in the Company's compressor fleet in 2001 to 570 units from 232 units at March 31, 2000. Effective July 1, 2000, the Company changed its estimate of the useful life and salvage value of its compressors for purposes of computing depreciation. The useful life and salvage value was changed from seven years with no salvage value to twelve years with ten percent salvage value. The effect of the change in the accounting estimate for the three months ended March 31, 2001, was to decrease depreciation expense by approximately $182,000 and increase the net income after income taxes by approximately $113,000.

The 2001 period includes interest expense of $272,581 compared to $67,468 for the 2000 period. The increase was due to the interest expense related to the subordinated promissory notes issued in December 2000 and increased balance outstanding under the line of credit in 2001.

Net income before income taxes was $10,595 for the 2001 period compared to $27,891 for the 2000 period. The decrease in net income was primarily due to higher interest expense and higher depreciation amortization expense in 2001.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In December 2000 and January 2001, the Company offered its 13% subordinated promissory notes and stock warrants in a private placement. At March 31, 2001, $5,500,000 of the subordinated promissory notes were issued. Of the $5,500,000 in proceeds, $100,000 was allocated to the stock warrants. The notes are subordinated unsecured obligations of the Company and rank junior to all existing indebtedness of the Company. The Notes mature on the earlier of (1) the consummation of an underwritten public offering of the Company's capital stock, and (2) December 31, 2003. The Company may, at any time, prepay any part of the principal balance on the notes, in increments of $10,000, without premium or penalty prior to maturity. Interest is payable at 13% per annum and is payable quarterly in arrears commencing on March 31, 2001.

In March 2000 the Company issued 70,002 shares of its common stock through a Private Placement for $30.00 per share or total equity proceeds of $2,100,080. The equity proceeds were used in part to repay borrowings under the Company's line of credit and the remaining proceeds will be used primarily to fund the growth in our compressor fleet.

On October 29, 1999, the Company borrowed $2,800,000 under a term loan agreement with Hibernia National Bank. The related note bears interest at a fixed rate of 8.8%. Principal payments of $46,667, plus accrued interest, are due monthly until maturity on October 30, 2004. The loan is secured with the assets and compressor leases of the Company and a personal guarantee of the Company's President.

On October 29, 1999, the Company entered into a revolving line of credit agreement with Hibernia National Bank. Under the agreement, as amended December 28, 2000, the Company can borrow the lesser of $7,500,000 or the sum of 80% of the aggregate amount of eligible receivables, plus 50% of the aggregate amount of eligible inventory, plus 85% of the appraised value of compressors fabricated since acquisition of the business on October 29, 1999. The line of credit bears interest at Wall Street Journal Prime Rate (8.0% at March 31, 2001). Interest is due monthly with all outstanding borrowings due at maturity on December 27, 2003. The loan is secured with the assets and compressor leases of the Company and a personal guarantee of the Company's President. The balance outstanding under the line of credit agreement at March 31, 2001 was $2,713,493. The Company's credit facility imposes a number of financial and restrictive covenants that among things, limit the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens and pay dividends. At March 31, 2001, the Company was in violation of two of its loan covenant ratios. Subsequent to March 31, 2001, the Company's has received a waiver from its lender for these covenant violations. Management expects that the Company will be in compliance with the covenants under the credit facility for the next twelve months.

The Company believes that cash flow from operations and funds available under its credit facilities will provide the necessary working capital to fund the Company's requirements for current operations through 2001. However, in connection with any expansion of operations or acquisition activities, it is likely that the Company will need additional sources of debt or equity financing. The Company cannot provide assurance that these funds will be available or if available will be available on satisfactory terms.
