Part 1
Item 1. BUSINESS
--------
The registrant, Calcasieu Real Estate and Oil Co., Inc., (the "Company")
was incorporated under Louisiana law in 1930 to hold real estate and royalty
interests located in Southwest Louisiana.
The principal office of the Company is One Lakeside Plaza, Lake Charles,
Louisiana. The business of the Company is conducted primarily at the principal
offices of its officers, who have other full-time employment.
The principal business of the Company has been the ownership and
preservation of the assets acquired at the Company's organization and
subsequently. The Company's primary activities have consisted of leasing its
properties and collecting rents and royalties derived therefrom. The mineral
interests of the Company are located in the Parishes of Calcasieu, Allen,
Acadia, Cameron, St. Landry, St. Mary, Vermilion and Jefferson Davis in
Louisiana. The Company owns approximately 12,170 acres of land in fee in the
Parishes of Allen, Beauregard, Calcasieu, Cameron, Jefferson Davis, LaFourche,
Sabine, St. Landry and Vermilion in Louisiana. Most of the Company's land and
mineral interests are located within 100 miles of the City of Lake Charles, in
southwestern and central Louisiana.
Of this total, 5,701 represents a 1/6th interest in 34,189 acres, which is
managed by Walker Louisiana Properties, a joint venture consisting of the land
owners. The Company also owns a 40% interest in 1,577 of these acres. Of the
Walker Louisiana acreage, the Company does not own minerals on the acres.
In April, 1992, the Company purchased a 100% interest in the surface rights
and a 50% interest in the mineral rights to 952 acres, consisting of mainly
timber lands located in Beauregard and Calcasieu Parishes. There is no
production on this acreage.
On October 29, 1997, Calcasieu Real Estate and Oil Co., Inc. purchased
3,496 acres of agricultural land in Cameron Parish, Louisiana, from Amoco
Production for $1,663,000. No minerals were included in the purchase.
Operations
- ----------
The Company's income is derived primarily from its oil and gas properties.
Agriculture and timber income are the next largest sources of income. Additional
oil and gas income in the future will come from discoveries on the Company's
land.
1
Industry Segments
- -----------------
The purchase of additional real estate in 1990, 1992, 1997, and 1999 has
created "Agricultural Properties" and "Timber Properties" as additional industry
segments because revenues from these properties exceed 10% of total revenues.
The Company also receives mineral rentals and royalties from some of these
properties. Note 7 to the Financial Statements on page 24 sets forth information
on the business segments.
Employees
- ---------
The Company currently employs a total of five persons in a part-time
capacity. The Company is subject to no union contracts nor does the Company have
any pension, profit sharing or deferred compensation plans.
Customers
- ---------
The Company had one customer, the sales to which equal or exceed 10% of the
Company's total revenues. In 2000, sales to Neumin Production accounted for 65%
of revenues.
Item 2. PROPERTIES
----------
Until early 1990, the Company owned 2,022 acres in fee, a 50% undivided
interest in 440 acres, and a 40% undivided interest in 1,748 acres of immovable
(real) property located in the parishes of Allen, Beauregard, Calcasieu,
Jefferson Davis, Sabine and St. Landry in Louisiana. The Company also owns a 20%
interest in the minerals under approximately 3,330 surface acres, and a 40%
interest in the minerals under approximately 160 surface acres, located in the
parishes of Acadia, Allen, Cameron, Jefferson Davis, St. Landry, St. Mary and
Vermilion in Louisiana. All of the foregoing property is located in southwestern
and central Louisiana, within approximately 100 miles of the City of Lake
Charles. Approximately half of the acreage in which only mineral interests are
held is in oil and gas production. In addition, the Company owns fractional
royalty interest in 36 properties covering 6,040 gross acres in eight parishes
in Louisiana.
In February of 1990 the Company acquired a 12.5% undivided fee interest in
34,309 acres (4,289) net acres) located in the Louisiana parishes of Allen,
Beauregard, Calcasieu, Cameron, Jefferson Davis, Sabine and Vermilion, and in
1999 the Company acquired an additional 4.17% interest in the same acreage. A
portion of these lands are the same as the 1,748 acres in which the company
owned a 40% position described in the first paragraph above. This property
consists of 17,088 gross acres of agriculture land, 7,572 acres of commercial
timber, 4,196 acres in pasture, 4,253 acres of marsh land and 1,200 acres for
future subdivision as it is contiguous to the city limits of Lake Charles. The
company participates in oil and gas production in Southeast Lunita Field, Lake
Arthur Field, Edgerly Field, Welsh Field and North Indian Village Field. The
largest oil and gas income in 2000 came from the company's 50% ownership in 443
acres that are located in the North English Bayou Field, Calcasieu Parish,
2
developed and operated by Neumin Production Company. The Company has also
participated for its 1/6th interest in the granting of oil and gas leases which
are yet to be drilled on Walker Louisiana acreage.
In April of 1992, the Company purchased 952 acres of timberland in
Calcasieu and Beauregard Parishes for $475,000.
On October 29, 1997, Calcasieu Real Estate and Oil Co., Inc. purchased
3,496 acres of land in Cameron Parish, Louisiana, from Amoco Production Company
for $1,663,000.
The table below shows, for the years ended December 31, 2000, December 31,
1999, and December 31, 1998, net gas produced in thousands of cubic feet (MCF)
and net oil (including condensate and natural gas liquids) produced in barrels

Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
-----------------
The Company is a co-defendant in a lawsuit filed by owners of eighty acres,
which the defendants owned the minerals. The landowners are asserting that the
mineral interest proscribed. Company's counsel has advised that he cannot offer
an opinion on the outcome awaiting review of the facts. The defendants intend to
defend the suit vigorously.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
-------------------------------------------------
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
-----------------------------------
Income after taxes was down 7% in 2000 from 1999. The Company had a
decrease in revenues of 6% in 2000 from 1999 and a decrease in expenses of 4%.
The increase in gas prices more than offset the decrease in gas production in
2000 from 1999. The decrease in oil production in 2000 from 1999 was not offset
by the increase in oil prices. Timber sales increased 49% in 2000 over 1999 due
in large part to cuttings to recoup timber damaged by fire.
Information on the oil and gas properties is included in the notes to
financial statements, specifically as to reserve quantities and standardized
measure of discounted net cash flows. Both of those are unaudited.
Management believes that the company's revenues will be sufficient to
meet its existing capital needs and the needs of its anticipated future
operations. Long-term trends will depend upon the ability of management to find
new production to replace the depletion of the Company's present minerals.

[LETTERHEAD OF McELROY, QUIRK & BURCH]
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Board of Directors
Calcasieu Real Estate & Oil Co., Inc.
Lake Charles, Louisiana
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Calcasieu Real Estate &
Oil Co., Inc. as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related statements of
income, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years ended
December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the
financial statements of the Co-owners' Undivided Two-Thirds Interest in Walker
Louisiana Properties as of and for the year ending December 31, 1998, of which
Calcasieu Real Estate & Oil Co., Inc. owns a twenty-five percent undivided
interest. The twenty-five percent undivided interest consists of total assets of
$1,781,597 as of December 31, 1998, and total revenues of $443,421 for the year
then ended. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report has
been furnished to us, and in our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts
included for the Co-Owners' Undivided Two-Thirds Interest in Walker Louisiana
Properties, is based solely on the report of the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of the other auditors,
the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Calcasieu Real Estate & Oil Co., Inc. as of
December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplementary information on pages 31
and 32 is presented for the purposes of additional analysis and is not a
required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial
statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

CALCASIEU REAL ESTATE & OIL CO., INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of business:
The Company's business is the ownership and preservation of the
assets acquired at the Company's organization and subsequent
thereto. The primary activities have consisted of leasing its
properties and collecting rents and royalties derived therefrom.
In February, 1990, the Company acquired a 12.5% interest in
34,189 acres of land in Southwest Louisiana. Among other uses, a
portion of the land is devoted to agricultural purposes. In
November, 1998, the Company purchased an additional 4.2% interest
in this land, bringing its total interest to 16.7%.
In April, 1992, the Company purchased a 100% interest in the
surface rights and a 50% interest in the mineral rights to 952
acres, consisting of mainly timber land.
In October, 1997, the Company purchased approximately 3,496 acres
of agricultural property.
Significant accounting policies:
Cash and cash equivalents:
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash equivalents
include time deposits, certificates of deposit, and all highly
liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months
or less.
Inventory:
Inventory consists of harvested crops valued at estimated selling
price at the date of the balance sheet.
16
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Pervasiveness of estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
Agricultural revenue:
Most agricultural income is derived under U.S. Government subsidy
programs. Under these programs, loans are made against crops as
harvested. However, delivery of the crops fulfills any further
obligation under the loan agreement, and thus revenues are recognized
as the harvested crops are delivered. Differences in the price at
ultimate sale of the products could result from quantity, grade, and
price, and additional revenues are derived at that time.
Investment securities:
The Company complies with the provisions of Financial Accounting
Standards Board Statement No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities. Under the provisions of this statement,
management must make a determination at the time of acquisition
whether certain investments in debt and equity securities are to be
held as investments to maturity, held as available for sale, or held
for trading. Management, under a policy adopted by the board of
directors of the Company, made a determination that all debt and
equity securities owned at that date and subject to the provisions of
the statement would be classified as held available-for-sale.
Under the accounting policies provided for investments classified as
held available-for-sale, all such debt securities and equity
securities that have readily determinable fair value shall be measured
at fair value in the balance sheet. Unrealized holding gains and
losses for available-for-sale securities shall be excluded from
earnings and reported as a net amount (net of income taxes) as a
separate component of retained earnings until realized. Realized gains
and losses and declines in value judged to be other than temporary on
available-for-sale securities are included in income. The cost of
securities sold is based on the specific identification method.
Interest on debt securities is recognized in income as earned, and
dividends on marketable equity securities are recognized in income
when declared.
17
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Property and equipment:
Property and equipment is stated at cost. Major additions are
capitalized; maintenance and repairs are charged to income currently.
Depreciation is computed on the straight-line and accelerated methods
over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Successful efforts accounting method:
The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for its
oil and gas operations. Under the successful efforts method, the costs
of acquiring mineral interest, drilling and equipping successful
exploratory wells, and all development wells and related facilities
are capitalized. All other exploration costs, including geological and
geophysical costs, lease rentals and the cost of drilling unsuccessful
exploratory wells are charged to expense. Due to the Company's small
percentage ownership (in relation to the total) of oil and gas
properties, reserve information is not available to the Company for
mineral interests acquired. Depletion of these interests is computed
on the straight-line and accelerated methods over an estimated life of
five to seven years. Acquisition costs of proved mineral interests for
which reserve information is available are depleted using the unit-of-
production method based on production and estimated proved reserves.
Related tangible and intangible costs are depreciated and amortized
using the unit-of-production method based on production and estimated
proved developed reserves.
Earnings per share:
Earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the years.
Income taxes:
The Company complies with the provisions of FASB Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards 109, Accounting for Income Taxes
relative to the reporting of income taxes. This statement requires an
asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting
for income taxes. The objectives are to recognize the amount of taxes
payable or refundable for the current year, and to recognize deferred
tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events
that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax
returns. The elements with different bases for financial and tax
purposes are property and equipment, investments, accounts receivable,
inventory and accounts payable.
18
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The basic principles to be applied in accounting for income taxes
at the date of the financial statements are:
1. A current tax liability or asset is recognized for the
estimated taxes payable or refundable on tax returns for the
current year.
2. A deferred tax liability or asset is recognized for the
estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary
differences and carryforwards.
3. The measurement of current and deferred tax liabilities and
assets is based on provisions of the enacted tax law; the
effects of future changes in tax laws or rates are not
anticipated.
4. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if
considered necessary, by the amount of any tax benefits
that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be
realized.
Comprehensive income:
Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income". This statement establishes standards for reporting and
displaying comprehensive income and its components in the
financial statements. Total comprehensive income and the
components of accumulated other comprehensive income are
presented in the Statements of Changes in Stockholders' Equity.
Prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the
requirements of SFAS 130. SFAS 130 had no impact on the Company's
net income or stockholders' equity.
Reclassifications:
Certain prior year balances have been reclassified in order to
conform to current year presentation.
Note 2. Securities Available-for-Sale
Debt and equity securities have been classified in the balance sheet
according to management's intent in the current and noncurrent asset
sections under the headings securities available-for-sale. The
carrying amount of securities and their approximate fair values at
December 31, 2000 and 1999 follow:

Reserve quantities (unaudited):
Reserve information relating to estimated quantities of the Company's
interest in proved reserves of natural gas and crude (including condensate
and natural gas liquids) is not available. Such reserves are located
entirely within the United States. A schedule indicating such reserve
quantities is, therefore, not presented.
21
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The wells remain in production at December 31, 2000, including royalty
interests and working interests obtained through back-in provisions of
royalty agreements. Production from such royalty interests and working
interests comprises 100% of the Company's oil and gas revenues in
2000, 1999 and 1998.
Actual production has exceeded original estimates of reserves, and
remaining reserves have not been revised. Therefore, the Company is
not able to complete the computations of discounted future cash flows
and reconciliation thereof.
Note 4. Income Taxes
The Company files federal income tax returns on a calendar year basis.

credit was $-0- at December 31, 2000.
Note 6. Company Operations
Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the Financial
Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 131, "Disclosures About
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information". This statement
replaces Statement No. 14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of a
Business Enterprise", and establishes new standards for defining the
Company's segments and disclosing information about them. It requires
that the segments be based on the internal reporting of the Company's
operations.
The Company's operations are classified into three principal operating
segments which are all located in the United States: oil and gas
properties, agricultural properties, and timber properties. The
Company's reportable business segments are strategic business units
that offer income from different products. They are managed separately
due to the unique aspects of each area.

There are no intersegment sales reported in the accompanying income
statements. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those
described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company
evaluates performance based on profit or loss from operations before income
taxes excluding nonrecurring gains and losses on securities held available
for sale. Income before income tax represents net sales less operating
expenses and other income and expenses of a general corporate nature.
Identifiable assets by segment are those assets that are used in the
Company's operations within that industry. General corporate assets consist
principally of cash and cash items, accounts receivable, and marketable
equity and debt securities.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 10. Operating Leases
The Company leases agricultural land to a third party. This agreement,
with an original expiration date of September 30, 2002, was extended
during year 2000 to September 30, 2004. The annual lease rental is
$40,000. The lease requires payment of normal maintenance and
insurance. The lease also requires the lessee to construct specific
improvements to the property at an expenditure of at least $60,000 as
additional consideration during the original term of the contract. In
the event the lessee fails to spend $60,000 on the above mentioned
improvements prior to September 30, 2002, the amounts unspent will be
due and payable to the Company on September 30, 2002. As a condition
of extending the lease contract for an additional two year period, the
lessee is required to spend $40,000 each year for additional
improvements to the properties, in addition to the annual lease
payments.
Total future minimum rental income under operating leases as of
December 31, 2000 for the next five years is as follows:

Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is a co-defendant in a lawsuit filed by previous owners of
property that is now partially owned by the Company. In this suit, the
Plaintiffs assert that the sale of a strip of property in 1914 created
two servitudes, one of which, the co-defendants claim ownership,
expired by liberative prescription in 1940. The Company has indicated
that it will defend the suit vigorously, and it is anticipated that a
motion for summary judgment in favor of the defendants will be filed
in the near future.
