TRI-VALLEY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND 2001
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
-----------------------

The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such
information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring
adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
statement of results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the
nine-month period ended September 30, 2002, are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for the full year.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include footnotes and
certain financial presentations normally required under generally accepted
accounting principles; and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2001.

NOTE 2 - PER SHARE COMPUTATIONS
------------------------

Per share computations are based upon the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during each year. Common stock equivalents are not included
in the computations since their effect would be anti-dilutive.

NOTE 3 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
----------------------------------

On January 1, 2002, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets" (SFAS 142). Under SFAS 142, goodwill is a nonamortizable
asset, and is subject to an annual review for impairment, and an interim review
when certain events or circumstances occur that indicate the carrying value may
not be recoverable. Under SFAS 142, we had a transitional period of six months
from the date of adoption to complete our goodwill impairment testing. We
evaluated the recoverability of the recorded amount of goodwill based on certain
operating and financial factors. Such impairment testing included discounted
cash flow tests which require broad assumptions and significant judgment to be
exercised by management. As a result of this analysis, no impairment of
goodwill was identified.

On January 1, 2002, we adopted SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" (SFAS 144). Under SFAS 144, long-lived assets to
be disposed of are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less
costs to sell, whether reported in continuing operations or in discontinued
operations. Discontinued operations will no longer be measured at net
realizable value or include amounts for operating losses that have not yet
occurred. A long-lived asset must be tested for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may be impaired. The
implementation of this standard had no effect on results of operations.



In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations" (SFAS 143). Under SFAS 143, the fair value of a liability for an
asset retirement obligation should be recorded in the period in which it is
incurred. Upon settlement of the liability, an entity either settles the
obligation for its recorded amount or incurs a gain or loss if the settled
amount differs from the liability recorded. SFAS 143 is effective for fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 2002. We are currently evaluating this guidance
and have not determined the impact on our financial position, results of
operations, or net cash flows, however, such impact could be material.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities" (SFAS 146). SFAS 146 addresses the financial
accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities.
SFAS 146 states that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal
activity shall be recognized and measured initially at its fair value in the
period when the liability is incurred. A liability is established only when
present obligations to others are determined. SFAS 146 does not apply to costs
associated with the retirement of long-lived assets covered in SFAS 143 (see
above). It applies to costs associated with an exit activity that does not
involve an entity newly acquired in a business combination or with a disposal
activity covered by SFAS 144 (see above). We will apply SFAS 146 for exit or
disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. We are evaluating this
guidance and do not believe that it will have a material impact on our financial
position, results of operations, or net cash flows.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
OF OPERATIONS
--------------

BUSINESS REVIEW

Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
- ----------------------------------------------

This report contains forward-looking statements. The words, "anticipate,"
"believe," "expect," "plan," "intend," "estimate," "project," "could," "may,"
"foresee," and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. These statements include information regarding expected development
of the Company's business, lending activities, relationship with customers, and
development in the oil and gas industry. Should one or more of these risks or
uncertainties occur, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual
results may vary materially and adversely from those anticipated, believed,
estimated or otherwise indicated.

Petroleum Activities
- ---------------------

We began drilling the Sunrise-Mayel No. 2-H on July 12, 2002. Next, we
hydraulically fractured the well, which was done on September 7, 2002. We are
cleaning out the "frac" fluids and evaluating the results.

We are planning to commence drilling the Aurora #1-19 well in November. The
well is a 5,800' deep test well. It is estimated to take 19 days to drill and
another 12 days to complete.

Precious Metals
- ----------------

We had no activity on our Alaska claims block this season. We were unable to
secure funding timely enough to allow any significant work to be performed.
Hopefully, we will be able to secure financing earlier in 2003 to allow us to do
some of the additional work that is needed.

Three Months Ended Sept. 30, 2002 as compared with Three Months ended Sept. 30,
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2001
- ----

In the quarter ended September 30, 2002 total revenue was $3,923,875 compared to
$298,500 for the same quarter in 2001. This increase was from the sale of
turnkey drilling interests in the Sunrise-Mayel #2H. Sale of oil and gas income
this quarter was approximately the same as this same period in 2001. Other
income was $97,058 less this quarter due to distribution in 2001 from a
non-operated drilling partnership.

Costs and expenses increased $2,381,590 for the period ending September 30, 2002
compared to the same period last year. Oil and gas lease expenses were $23,572
in the third quarter of 2002 compared to $45,765 in the same quarter last year
due to less well workover expenses in 2002. Mining costs are $36,809 less this
quarter due to decreased activity on our Alaska mining claims this year. Our
project geology, geophysics, land and administration costs were $973,076 higher
in the quarter ended September 30, 2002 because of increased land acquisition
costs and geologic work over the same period last year. Cost of sales in this
quarter of $1,487,689 is the cost related to the sale of turnkey drilling
prospects.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2002 we had income of $1,071,553 compared to
a loss of $172,172 for the third quarter ended September 30, 2001. This was due
to the sale of a prospect.

Nine Months Ended Sept. 30, 2002 as compared to September 30, 2001
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Total revenue was $4,963,850 for the nine months ended September 20, 2002, which
is an increase of $3,301,334 compared to the same period in 2001. This increase
was due to the sale of turnkey drilling interests in several prospects. We had
a decrease of $130,752 in other income the first nine months of 2002 compared to
the same period in 2001 due to distribution in 2001 from a non-operated drilling
partnership.

We had costs and expenses of $4,516,696 for this nine-month period compared to
$1,518,228 in the same period in 2001. This increase of $2,998,468 is due to
the cost of the sale of turnkey drilling interests in prospects we sold this
first nine months. We had a decrease in oil and gas lease expense of $127,049
because of reduced workover expenses. Mining expenses were $459,374 less for
the nine months ending September 30, 2002 compared to the same period in 2001
due to reduced activity on our mining claims. We were unable to get the
necessary funding in a timely manner to enable us to perform any significant
activity. Project geology, geophysics and land costs are $1,037,310 higher this
year due to increased land acquisition and related geologic work. We had cost
of sales of $2,115,375 associated with the sale of direct working interests the
same period in 2001.

We had net income of $447,154 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002
compared to $144,288 for the same period in 2001. This is due mainly from the
profit generated from the sale of direct working interests in our drilling
projects.

Capital Resources and Liquidity
- ----------------------------------

Current assets are $2,496,375 at September 30, 2002 compared to $1,031,167 as of
December 31, 2001. This is due to an increase in cash from our capital
formation program Opus 1. Current liabilities are $4,064,320 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2002 compared to $3,019,610 for the period ended
December 31, 2001. This increase is due to advances from joint venture
participants in our drilling programs.

Operating Activities. We had a positive cash flow of $1,569,525 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2002 compared to a negative cash flow of $98,809 for
the same period in 2001. This change is due to funds acquired in 2002 from
joint venture participants for drilling activity. Our primary sources of
operating funds are comprised of selling prospects and oil and gas sales.

Investing Activities. In the first nine months of 2002, we spent $117,959 on
capital expenditures compared to $652,738 for the same period in 2001. These
expenditures were the result of leasing activities to acquire leases for our
drilling program. We expect to recoup these amounts as the drilling prospects
are sold to drilling programs.

Financing Activities. Net cash provided by investing activities was $8,000
compared to $51,896 for the same period in 2001. This decline was due to the
issuance of $57,000 dollars of common stock in the first nine months of 2001
compared to $8,135 this year for sales of restricted company stock in private
transactions.


ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
----------------------------------------------------------------

Tri-Valley Corporation does not engage in hedging activities and does not use
commodity futures or forward contracts in its cash management functions.


ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
-------------------------

As of September 30, 2002, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and
with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's CEO
and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's
disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Company's
management, including the CEO and CFO, concluded that the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2002. There have
been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other
factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to
September 30, 2002.

common stock to one ex-employee who exercised stock options in a private
transaction pursuant to the exemption contained in Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933, for aggregate consideration of $2,500. The shares
