6 PARKER & PARSLEY 84-A, LTD. (A Texas Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2001 (Unaudited) Note 1. Organization and nature of operations Parker & Parsley 84-A, Ltd. (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership organized in 1984 under the laws of the State of Texas. The Partnership engages in oil and gas development and production in Texas and is not involved in any industry segment other than oil and gas. Note 2. Basis of presentation In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements of the Partnership as of March 31, 2001 include all adjustments and accruals consisting only of normal recurring accrual adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. Certain reclassifications may have been made to the March 31, 2000 financial statements to conform to the March 31, 2001 financial statement presentations. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto contained in the Partnership's Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, a copy of which is available upon request by writing to Rich Dealy, Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer, 5205 North O'Connor Boulevard, 1400 Williams Square West, Irving, Texas 75039-3746. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (1) Results of Operations Revenues: The Partnership's oil and gas revenues increased 19% to $634,643 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to $533,060 for the same period in 2000. The increase in revenues resulted from higher average prices received, offset by a decline in production. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, 13,629 barrels of oil, 6,391 barrels of natural gas liquids ("NGLs") and 33,550 mcf of gas were sold, or 25,612 barrel of oil equivalents ("BOEs"). For the three months ended March 31, 2000, 13,571 barrels of oil, 8,220 barrels of NGLs and 35,071 mcf of gas were sold, or 27,636 BOEs. 7 The average price received per barrel of oil decreased $.45, or 2%, from $27.61 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 to $27.16 for the same period in 2001. The average price received per barrel of NGLs increased $3.50, or 28%, from $12.70 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 to $16.20 for the same period in 2001. The average price received per mcf of gas increased 212% from $1.54 during the three months ended March 31, 2000 to $4.80 for the same period in 2001. The market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile in the past decade, and management expects a certain amount of volatility to continue in the foreseeable future. The Partnership may therefore sell its future oil and gas production at average prices lower or higher than that received during the three months ended March 31, 2001. Costs and Expenses: Total costs and expenses increased to $299,117 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to $267,615 for the same period in 2000, an increase of $31,502, or 12%. This increase was primarily due to increases in production costs and general and administrative expenses ("G&A"), offset by a decline in depletion. Production costs were $248,790 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and $219,634 for the same period in 2000 resulting in a $29,156 increase, or 13%. The increase was primarily due to additional well maintenance costs incurred to stimulate well production and higher production taxes associated with higher oil and gas prices. G&A's components are independent accounting and engineering fees and managing general partner personnel and administrative costs. During this period, G&A increased 55% from $14,335 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 to $22,219 for the same period in 2001, primarily due to a higher percentage of the managing general partner's G&A being allocated (limited to 3% of oil and gas revenues) as a result of increased oil and gas revenues and an increase in the accrual for tax preparation fees. Depletion was $28,108 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to $33,646 for the same period in 2000, a decrease of $5,538, or 16%. This decrease was the result of positive revisions to proved reserves during the three months ended March 31, 2001 as a result of higher commodity prices. Liquidity and Capital Resources Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities Net cash provided by operating activities increased $63,503 during the three months ended March 31, 2001 from the same period in 2000. The increase was due to an increase of $102,540 in oil and gas sales receipts, offset by increases in production costs of $29,156, G&A expenses of $7,884 and working capital of $1,997. The increase in oil and gas receipts resulted from the increase in commodity prices during 2001 which contributed an additional $137,887 to oil and gas receipts, offset by $35,347 resulting from the decline in production during 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000. The increase in production costs was primarily due to additional well maintenance costs incurred to stimulate well production and increased production taxes associated with higher oil and 8 gas prices. The increase in G&A was primarily due to a higher percentage of the managing general partner's G&A being allocated (limited to 3% of oil and gas revenues) as a result of increased oil and gas revenues and an increase in the accrual for tax preparation fees. Net Cash Used in Investing Activities The Partnership's principal investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 were for expenditures related to oil and gas equipment upgrades on active properties. Net Cash Used in Financing Activities For the three months ended March 31, 2001, cash distributions to the partners were $373,828, of which $94,450 was distributed to the general partners and $279,378 to the limited partners. For the same period ended March 31, 2000, cash distributions to the partners were $215,712, of which $54,767 was distributed to the general partners and $160,945 to the limited partners. Proposal to acquire partnerships On April 17, 2001, Pioneer Natural Resources Company ("Pioneer") filed a preliminary proxy statement/prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Commission proposing an agreement and plan of merger among Pioneer, Pioneer Natural Resources USA, Inc. ("Pioneer USA"), a wholly- owned subsidiary of Pioneer, and the limited partners of 46 Parker & Parsley limited partnerships. Each partnership that approves the agreement and plan of merger and the other related merger proposals will merge with and into Pioneer USA, and the partnership interests of each such partnership will be converted into the right to receive cash and Pioneer common stock. Pioneer USA is the sole or managing general partner of the partnerships. The Partnership is one of the 46 Parker & Parsley limited partnerships being requested to approve the agreement and plan of merger. The preliminary proxy statement/prospectus is non-binding and is subject to, among other things, consideration of offers from third parties to purchase any partnership or its assets, the majority approval of the limited partnership interests in each partnership and the resolution of Securities and Exchange Commission review comments. No solicitation will be made using preliminary materials. --------------- (1) "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" contains forward looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
