Forward-Looking
Statements & Engineering Reports
Certain
information included in this report, other materials filed or
to be filed by the
Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), as well as
information included in oral statements or other written statements
made or to
be made by the Company contain or incorporate by reference certain
forward
looking statements (other than statements of historical or present
fact) within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and
Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
All
statements, other than statements of historical or present facts,
that address
activities, events, outcomes or developments that the Company
plans, expects,
believes, assumes, budgets, predicts, forecasts, estimates, projects,
intends or
anticipates (and other similar expressions) will or may occur
in
the future are forward looking statements. These forward-looking
statements are
based on management’s current belief, based on currently available information,
as to the outcome and timing of future events. When considering
forward-looking
statements, you should keep in mind the cautionary statements
in this Form 10-Q
and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2006. Such forward-looking statements appear in a number of places
and include
statements with respect to, among other things, such matters
as: future capital,
development and exploration expenditures (including the amount
and nature
thereof), drilling, deepening or refracing of wells, oil and
natural gas reserve
estimates (including estimates of future net revenues associated
with such
reserves and the present value of such future net revenues),
estimates of future
production of oil and natural gas, business strategies, expansion
and growth of
the Company’s operations, cash flow and anticipated liquidity, prospects
and
development and property acquisitions, obtaining financial or
industry partners
for prospect or program development, or marketing of oil and
natural gas. We
caution you that these forward-looking statements are subject
to risks and
uncertainties. These risks include but are not limited to: general
economic
conditions, the Company’s
2
ability
to finance acquisitions and drilling, the market price of oil
and natural gas,
the risks associated with exploration, the Company’s ability to find, acquire,
market, develop and produce new properties, operating hazards
attendant to the
oil and natural gas business, uncertainties in the estimation
of proved reserves
and in the projection of future rates of production and timing
of development
expenditures, the strength and financial resources of the Company’s competitors,
the Company’s ability to find and retain skilled personnel, climatic conditions,
labor relations, availability and cost of material and equipment,
environmental
risks, the results of financing efforts, regulatory developments
and the other
risks described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2006.
Reserve
engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground
accumulations of
oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact way.
The accuracy of any
reserve estimate depends on the quality of available data and
the interpretation
of that data by reserve engineers. In addition, the results of
drilling, testing
and production activities may justify revisions of estimates
that were made
previously. If significant, these revisions could change the
schedule of any
further production and/or development drilling. Accordingly,
reserve estimates
are generally different from the quantities of oil and natural
gas that are
ultimately recovered.
Should
one or more of the risks or uncertainties described above or
elsewhere in this
Form 10-Q or presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2006 occur, or should underlying assumptions
prove incorrect,
actual results and plans could differ materially from those expressed
in any
forward-looking statements. We specifically disclaim all responsibility
to
publicly update any information contained in a forward-looking
statement or any
forward-looking statement in its entirety and therefore disclaim
any resulting
liability for potentially related damages.
All
forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified
in their
entirety by this cautionary statement.

NOTES
TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Basis
of
Preparation
The
condensed financial statements for the three month periods ended
March
31, 2006
and 2007 in this report have been prepared by the Company without
audit pursuant
to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
and
reflect, in the opinion of the management, all adjustments necessary
to present
fairly the results of the operations of the interim periods presented
herein.
Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included
in financial
statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted
in the United States of America have been omitted pursuant to
such rules and
regulations, although the Company believes the disclosures presented
herein are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It
is suggested that
these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with
the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, which report has been
filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The Annual Report is available
from the
Company’s website at www.croff.com,
and
online at the Securities and Exchange Commission website at www.sec.gov/edgar.
ITEM
2. MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
Overview
Croff
Enterprises, Inc. (“Croff’
or the “Company”) was incorporated in Utah in 1907. Croff is an independent
energy company engaged in the business of oil and natural gas
exploration and
production, primarily through the acquisition of producing oil
and natural gas
leases as well as the ownership of perpetual mineral interests.
Other companies
operate almost all of the wells from which Croff receives revenues
and Croff has
no control over the factors which determine royalty or working
interest
revenues, such as markets, prices and rates of production. Today,
Croff
participates as a working interest owner in approximately 40
wells or units of
several wells. Croff holds small royalty interests in approximately
212 wells.
Summary
of Current and Subsequent Material Events - Change of Control
& Sale of
Assets
Croff
Enterprises, Inc. announced
on December 14, 2006, a Stock Equivalent Exchange Agreement providing
for the
majority acquisition of the Taiyun Rongan Business Trading Company
Limited,
hereafter “TRBT”, a Chinese company located in the city of Taiyun, Shanxi
Province, in the People’s Republic of China. The stock equivalent Exchange
Agreement (hereafter “exchange agreement”) provides for a change in control of
Croff, a change in the business of Croff, and a new management
team.
The
essential provisions of the
exchange agreement provide for Croff to issue over 11 million
new common shares
(92.5%) of its common stock to the owners of TRBT in exchange
for the
acquisition of 80% of the outstanding equity and ownership interest
in TRBT by
Croff. In the event of the majority shareholder vote and the
completion and
closing of the Exchange Agreement, Croff would own eighty percent
(80%) of all
of the issued and outstanding equity interest of TRBT. TRBT owns
a seventy-six
percent (76%) interest in six shopping malls located in or around
the city of
Taiyun, China which is located approximately 400 kilometers west
of Beijing,
China. As a result, Croff would own approximately sixty-one percent
(61%) net
interest in the shopping malls. At closing, TRBT shareholders
will receive and
own approximately 92.5% of the common shares of Croff and the
current Croff
shareholders will continue to hold approximately 7.5% of the
then issued and
outstanding common shares of Croff.
As
a
provision of the exchange agreement, Mr. Gerald L. Jensen, Croff’s President,
and his affiliated companies, the current principal shareholders
of Croff,
hereafter the “Croff Principals,” will, subject to shareholder vote, acquire
67.2% of all of the Preferred B Oil and Gas assets from Croff
in exchange for
the conveyance to Croff of the 67.2% of the
8
Class
B Preferred Shares
currently held by these Croff Principals. The Croff Principals
will exchange
three hundred sixty three thousand five hundred thirty five (363,535)
shares, or
67.2% of the class “B” shares outstanding, in exchange for 67.2% of the shares
of a new subsidiary to which all of the oil and gas assets and
liabilities
including related bank accounts of the Company will be transferred.
These class
“B” preferred shares will be cancelled by the Company upon assignment.
The Croff
Principals will, concurrently, tender the sum of six hundred
thousand dollars
($600,000) in cash to the Company, in exchange for the remaining
32.8% of the
shares of the new subsidiary holding all of the Croff oil and
gas assets.
Croff
will
then, prior
to
the exchange closing, convert all remaining preferred “B” shares as held by the
Croff shareholders other than the principal shareholders, being
approximately
32.8% of the issued and outstanding preferred “B” shares, to common shares on a
ratio of two common shares for each “B” preferred share cancelled. Prior to the
closing of the exchange transaction, all “B” preferred shares will be cancelled
and terminated of record, and all non-principal holders of
Croff Preferred “B”
shares will receive two common shares in exchange. All non-principal
preferred
“B” shareholders subsequent to the exchange will hold only common
shares. The
foregoing exchange transaction would not apply to Croff’s shareholders
exercising their dissenting shareholders rights, whereby their
Preferred B
shares would be re-acquired by Croff for cancellation at $4.20
per Preferred B
share and $1.25 per common share, or as otherwise appraised.
As provided in the
exchange agreement, the Company will have outstanding only
common shares after
the exchange. The Company is authorized to pay a dividend of
twenty cents per
share to all non-principal common shareholders of record prior
to closing. The
dividend would not be paid on the new common shares to be issued
to the
preferred shareholders prior to closing, or to the Croff principals.
The
exchange agreement also provides that the sum of $530,000 must
remain in Croff
at closing, after payment of all proxy and closing expenses,
dissenting
shareholder rights, and the dividend.
If
the
transaction is closed, the shareholders will have elected a new
Board of
Directors nominated and designated by TRBT. The new Board will
appoint new
officers for the company. As a net result, the business of the
company will be
changed from oil and gas production to primarily the acquisition,
development,
and management of retail properties in Taiyuan, China, including
the initial six
properties as identified. It is expected that the Company’s offices in the
United States will be moved to the Salt Lake City area from Denver,
CO.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
The
Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results
of
operation are based upon financial statements, which have been
prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of
America. The preparation of these financial statements requires
the Company to
make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts
of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses
during the year. The Company analyzes its estimates, including
those related to
oil and natural
gas revenues, oil and natural gas properties, marketable securities,
income
taxes and contingencies.
The
Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various
other
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Actual
results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions
or
conditions. The Company believes the following critical accounting
policies
affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the
preparation of
its financial statements and the uncertainties that it could
impact results of
operations, financial conditions and cash flows. The Company
accounts for its
oil and natural gas properties under the successful efforts method
of
accounting. Depletion, depreciation and amortization of oil and
natural gas
properties and the periodic assessments for impairment are based
on underlying
oil and natural gas reserve estimates and future cash flows using
then current
oil and natural gas prices combined with operating and capital
development
costs. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating
quantities of
proved oil and natural gas reserves and in projecting future
rates of production
and timing of development expenditures. Historically, oil and
natural gas prices
have experienced significant fluctuations and have been particularly
volatile in
recent years. Price fluctuations can result from variations in
weather, levels
of regional or national production and demand, availability of
transportation
capacity to other regions of the country and various other factors.
Increases or
decreases in oil and natural gas prices received could have a
significant impact
on future results.

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
At
March
31, 2007, the Company had assets of $1,924,737 and current assets
totaled
$1,157,860 compared to current liabilities of $116,721. Working
capital at March
31, 2007 totaled $1,041,139, an increase of approximately 5%
compared to
$995,498 at December 31, 2006. The Company had a current ratio
at March 31, 2007
of approximately 10:1.
During
the three month period ended March 31, 2007, net cash provided
by operations
totaled $57,536, as compared to $80,054 for the same period in
2006. This
decrease was due to higher lease operating expenses and payment
accrued of
liabilities in the first quarter of 2007. The Company’s cash flow from
operations is highly dependent on oil and natural gas prices.
The Company had no
short-term or long-term debt outstanding at March 31, 2007. In
December, 2005,
the Company purchased 16,156 shares of its common stock at a
cost of $24,643,
which is included in the treasury at December 31, 2006.
Capital
expenditures for the first quarter of 2007, totaled $22,845,
primarily incurred
for the costs of the Shriners II well located in Duchesne County,
Utah.
The
Company’s plans for ongoing oil and gas development, acquisition and
exploration
expenditures, and possible equity repurchases over and beyond
the Company’s
operating cash flows, will depend entirely upon the completion
of the proposed
exchange agreement. If the exchange agreement is not completed,
then the Company
will utilize the Company’s capital budget and internal operating cash flows to
attempt to secure reasonably priced opportunities. Future cash
flows are subject
to a number of variables, including the level of production and
oil and natural
gas prices. There can be no assurance that operations and other
capital
resources will provide cash in sufficient amounts to maintain
planned levels of
capital expenditures or that increased capital expenditures will
not be
undertaken.
The
Company believes that borrowings from financial institutions,
projected
operating cash flows and the cash on hand will be sufficient
to cover its
working capital requirements for the next 12 months. In connection
with
consummating any significant acquisition or funding an exploratory
or
development drilling program, additional debt or equity financing
will be
required, which may or may not be available on terms that are
acceptable to the
Company.
While
certain costs are affected by the general level of inflation,
factors unique to
the oil and natural gas industry result in independent price
fluctuations. Over
the past five years, significant fluctuations have occurred in
oil and natural
gas prices. Although it is particularly difficult to estimate
future prices of
oil and natural gas, price fluctuations have had, and will continue
to have, a
material effect on the Company. Overall, it is management’s belief that
inflation is generally favorable to the Company since it does
not have
significant operating expenses.
Results
of Operations
Three
months ended March 31, 2007
compared to three months ended March 31, 2006.
The
Company had a net income for the first quarter of 2007 which
totaled $54,372
compared to a net income of $57,806 for the same period in 2006.
Revenues were
lower in 2007, and lease operating expenses were higher. This
decrease in net
income was partially offset by higher interest income and lower
general and
administrative expenses resulting in a small decrease in net
income.
Revenues
for the first quarter of 2007 totaled $221,478 compared to $232,732
for the
period ending March 31, 2006, a slight decrease. Interest income
increased from
$6,658 in 2006 to $11,149 in the first quarter of 2007. Decreased
oil and
natural gas prices during the first quarter of 2007, were the
primary factors in
oil and gas revenues decreasing from $226,074 in the first quarter
of 2006 to
$210,329 in the first quarter of 2007.
For
the
first quarter of 2007, lease operation expenses, which includes
all production
related taxes, totaled $75,086 compared to $65,689 incurred for
the same period
in 2006. This increase was due to more workover expenses, non
capitalized costs
with new wells, and timing of lease expenses. Estimated depreciation
and
depletion expense for the first quarter of 2007 and for 2006
was unchanged at
$12,500.
10
General
and administrative expense, including overhead expense paid to
a related party,
for the first quarter of 2007, totaled $43,372 compared to $62,952
for the same
period in 2006. This decrease related to more general and administrative
expenses incurred in the first quarter of 2006. Overhead expense
paid to a
related party for the first quarter of 2007 totaled $12,125 compared
to $16,318
in 2006 which related to one time extra costs in 2006. Provision
for income
taxes for the first quarter of 2007 totaled $22,000 compared
to $16,000 from the
same period in 2006. This increase is primarily attributable
to a higher
estimate taxable income for taxes due in 2007.
Accounting
Pronouncements
Regarding Interim Financial Statements
In
May 2005, the
FASB issued SFAS No. 154, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections
- a
replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3."
SFAS No. 154
replaces APB Opinion ("APB") No. 20, "Accounting Changes", and
SFAS No. 3,
"Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements,"
and changed the
requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change
in accounting
principle. SFAS No. 154 will apply to all voluntary changes in
accounting
principle as well as to changes required by an accounting pronouncement
in the
unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific
transition
provisions. APB No. 20 previously required that most voluntary
changes in
accounting principle be recognized by including in net income
of the period of
the change the cumulative effect of changing to the new accounting
principle.
SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods'
financial
statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable
to
determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative
effect of the
change. When it is impracticable to determine the period-specific
effects of an
accounting change on one or more individual prior periods presented,
SFAS No.
154 requires that the new accounting principle be applied to
the balances of
assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the earliest period
for which
retrospective application is practicable and that a corresponding
adjustment be
made to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate
components of equity or net assets in the statement of financial
condition).

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The
Company’s major market risk exposure is in crude oil and natural gas
prices.
Realized pricing is primarily driven by the prevailing domestic
price for oil
and natural gas. Historically, prices received for oil and natural
gas
production have been volatile and unpredictable. Pricing volatility
is expected
to continue. Natural gas price realizations for
the
three months ended March 31, 2007, ranged from a monthly low
of approximately
$5.00 per Mcf to a monthly high of approximately $7.50 per Mcf.
Oil prices
ranged from a monthly low of approximately $48 per barrel to
a monthly high of
approximately $62 per barrel. A decline in prices of oil or natural
gas could
have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results
of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2007, a 10%
reduction in oil
and natural gas prices would have reduced revenues by approximately
$20,000. If
the exchange agreement is completed, then the company will incur
entirely new
and distinct risk factors as a real estate company as more fully
disclosed in
its pending proxy materials.

4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The
Company maintains controls and procedures designed to ensure
that information
required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files
or submits under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized
and
reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms
of the

and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that
evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and the Chief Accounting
Officer concluded that as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure
control and procedures are effective in alerting them to material
information
that is required to be included in the reports the Company files
or submits
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
