PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 1. Financial Statements
INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS REPORT
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of
Quicksilver Resources Inc. Fort Worth, Texas
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Quicksilver Resources Inc. (the Company) as of June 30, 2002, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 and cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and of making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to such condensed consolidated financial statements for them
to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have previously audited, in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2001, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders equity and cash flows
for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 8, 2002, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed
consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2001, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

QUICKSILVER RESOURCES INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND
DISCLOSURES
In the opinion of management of Quicksilver Resources Inc. (Quicksilver or the
Company), the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal, recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2002, and
the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been
condensed or omitted. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. The results of operations for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full fiscal year.
Certain reclassifications have been made for comparative purposes for presentations adopted in 2002.
In July 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146 (SFAS No. 146), Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. SFAS No. 146
requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. SFAS No. 146 supercedes EITF Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition
for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). Statement 146 is to be applied prospectively to exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002.
The Company has not yet determined the impact of this standard.
Net Income per Common Share
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of shares of common
stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is calculated in the same manner but also considers the impact to net income and common shares for the potential dilution from stock options, stock warrants, and any other
convertible securities outstanding. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 there were no adjustments to net income for purposes of calculating diluted net income per common share. The following is a reconciliation of the weighted
average common shares used in the basic and diluted net income per common share calculations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2002, warrants representing
550,000 shares of common stock were excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation for the period prior to their exercise as the exercise price exceeded the average market price of the Companys common stock. For the three and six
month periods ended June 30, 2001, warrants representing 550,000 shares of common stock were excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation as the exercise price exceeded the average market price of the Companys common stock.

The fair value of fixed price natural gas and crude oil financial
instruments and firm sales and purchase commitments as of June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 was estimated based on market prices of natural gas and crude oil for the periods covered by the financial instruments. The net differential between the
prices in each financial instrument and commitment and market prices for future periods, as adjusted for estimated basis, has been applied to the volumes stipulated in each contract to arrive at an estimated future value. This estimated future value
was discounted on each financial instrument at rates commensurate with federal treasury instruments with similar contractual lives. As a result, the fair value of the Companys derivatives does not necessarily represent the value a third party
would pay to assume the Companys contract positions. The fair value of interest rate swaps was based upon third-party estimates of the fair value of such swaps.
On July 15, 2002, the Company closed its interest rate hedge related to the fixed rate interest paid on $53,000,000 of subordinated notes. The Company realized a gain of
$1,000,000. The gain has been deferred and will be recognized as a reduction of interest expense over the remaining life of the debt.

In May, Quicksilvers three-year revolving credit facility was
amended to mature on May 13, 2005. It permits the Company to obtain revolving credit loans and to issue letters of credit for the account of the Company from time to time in an aggregate amount not to exceed $250,000,000. As of June 30, 2002, the
Companys borrowing base was $210,000,000 of which $21,333,000 was available. On July 2, 2002, the Companys interest rate was set at 3.735%
8
through October 2, 2002 on $177,000,000. During 2002, the Company has made net principal repayments of $2,000,000 and reduced the balance
payable under its credit facility to $188,000,000. The loan agreement for the credit facility contains certain dividend restrictions and restrictive covenants, which, among other things, require the maintenance of a minimum current ratio.
Additionally, the purchase agreement relating to the Companys subordinated notes contains restrictive covenants, which, among other things, require maintenance of working capital, a collateral coverage ratio and an earnings ratio. The Company
currently is in compliance with all such restrictions.
4. UNEARNED REVENUE
On March 31, 2000, the Company conveyed to a bank Section 29 tax credits for 99.5% of the interests acquired from CMS Oil and Gas Company,
including the interests in Terra Energy Ltd., in Devonian shale gas production from certain wells located in Michigan. Cash proceeds received from the sale were $25,000,000 and were recorded as unearned revenue. Revenue is recognized as reserves are
produced. Revenue of $5,024,000 and $4,741,000 was recognized in the 2002 and 2001 periods, respectively, in other revenue.
During 1997, other tax credits were conveyed through the sale of certain working interests to a bank. Revenue of $755,000 and $883,000 was recognized in the 2002 and 2001 periods, respectively, in other revenue.
5. STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY
On February 1, 2002, the Company granted incentive stock options covering 48,300 shares of common stock to certain employees. Stock options covering 20,835 shares of common stock were granted to
non-employee directors as payment of compensation for 2002. These options were granted at an exercise price of $17.02 and vest one year from the date of grant. No compensation expense was recognized at the date of grant, as the exercise price was
equal to the fair value of the common stock at the date of grant.
Warrants for 550,000 shares at $20.00 per share
and 430,000 shares at $12.50 per share were exercised during the first quarter of 2002. Fees of $297,000 were incurred in association with the exercise of warrants for 495,000 shares at $20.00. Additionally, options covering 102,454 shares of common
stock were exercised during the current year and 37,100 treasury shares were issued to executives for payment of bonuses earned during 2000.
During 2002, 10,000 MGV exchangeable shares were presented to Quicksilver for purchase for $189,100. A total of 42,748 of MGV exchangeable shares were converted to Quicksilver common stock. At June 30,
2002, 227,421 MGV exchangeable shares remain outstanding.

6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Darden family has effective beneficial ownership of 49.8% of Quicksilvers shares outstanding including shares owned by Mercury
Exploration Company (Mercury) and Quicksilver Energy L.C. Thomas Darden, Glenn Darden and Anne Darden Self are officers and directors of the Company.
During the first six months of 2002, Quicksilver paid $431,000 for principal and interest on a note payable to Mercury associated with an acquisition of assets from Mercury. At June 30, 2002, the
balance of the note was $2,240,000. Quicksilver and its associated entities paid $365,000 for rent on buildings, which are owned by a Mercury affiliate.
9
Quicksilver accounts for its 65% holdings in Voyager Compression Services, LLC
(Voyager) under the equity method since control over Voyager is shared equally with Mercury. During 2002, Quicksilver has purchased $4,699,000 of compressors, maintenance and related services from Voyager at terms as favorable as those
granted to third parties.
Voyager has decided to sell existing assets and lines of business to third parties. In
July 2002, Voyager entered into an agreement with a third party to sell its Michigan inventory and fixed assets. In the second quarter, Voyager recognized an impairment loss of $788,000 related to its inventory, fixed assets and operating leases for
facilities. Quicksilver recognized $512,000 (its 65% share) of the impairment in the second quarter.

the three months ended June 30, 2002, compared to net income of $5,004,000 ($0.26 per diluted share) in the second quarter of 2001.
Operating Revenues
Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2002 were
$30,752,000; a decrease of 20% from the $38,287,000 reported for the three months ended June 30, 2001. Lower prices decreased revenue $3,464,000 while a decrease in sales volumes further reduced revenue $2,763,000. Volume decreases were primarily
the result of higher volumes in the 2001 period due to recording additional volumes associated with payouts and other adjustments. Other revenue decreased $1,308,000 from the prior year period primarily as a result of the absence of $580,000
received in 2001 from settlement of bankruptcy proceedings by a former purchaser of gas and $512,000 due to the impairment of assets by an equity affiliate in the second quarter of 2002.

Gas sales of $21,494,000 for the second quarter of 2002 were 16%
lower than the $25,512,000 for the comparable 2001 period. Decreased prices reduced revenue $3,138,000 from the 2001 period. Prices decreased to $2.71 per Mcf from $3.09 per Mcf in the prior year quarter. A reduction of sales volume of 325,000 Mcf
reduced revenue $880,000 as compared to the second quarter of 2001. In the second quarter of 2001, we received information identifying properties where payouts had occurred and recorded 502,000 Mcf of additional volumes and associated revenue as a
consequence.
Oil sales were $5,150,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to $7,081,000 in the
second quarter of 2001. The average oil sales price for the second quarter of 2002 decreased $0.73 per barrel to $22.28 per barrel as compared to the $23.01 per barrel for the 2001 second quarter and reduced oil revenue $223,000. A 76,600 barrel
decrease in sales volumes reduced revenue $1,708,000 from the prior year quarter. Higher volumes in the 2001 period were primarily due to adjustments recognized in the second quarter of 2001 related to properties acquired from CMS.
NGL sales of $547,000 for the second quarter of 2002 decreased $278,000 from $825,000 for the 2001 period. NGL prices decreased
from $18.25 to $15.99 per Bbl and reduced revenue $102,000. Sales volumes decreased 11,000 barrels from the 2001 period and reduced revenue $176,000.
Other Revenues
Other revenue of $3,561,000 was $1,308,000
lower when compared to the second quarter of 2001. The 2001 period included $580,000 of revenue associated with the settlement of bankruptcy proceedings of a former gas purchaser of ours. Additionally, a $512,000 loss resulting from the impairment
of assets in the current quarter by an equity affiliate, Voyager Compression Services LLC, further reduced other revenue. Second quarter revenue from Section 29 tax credit monetizations decreased $92,000 from the prior year period.
Operating Expenses
Second quarter operating expenses for 2002 were $20,469,000, 17% lower than the $24,638,000 incurred in the second quarter of 2001.
Oil and Gas Production Costs
Oil and gas production costs were $10,526,000, a 31% decrease from the 2001 second quarter oil and gas production costs of $15,309,000. Lower lease operating expenses were the result of lower levels of workover and compressor
maintenance work as compared to the 2001 period as well as cost reduction programs instituted in 2002.
12
Additionally, approximately $810,000 of 2001 expense was recorded in conjunction with payout volumes and revenues.
Production overhead expense decreased $303,000 in the 2002 period primarily as a result of a reduction in accruals for bonuses and 401(k) contributions as compared to the 2001 period. Lower sales prices and volumes resulted in a $423,000 decrease of
severance tax expense as compared to the second quarter of 2002.

Second quarter 2002 depletion of $6,650,000 was slightly higher
than the second quarter of 2001 figure, despite a decrease in sales volumes, due to an increase in the depletion rate for 2002. The higher depletion rate was the result of a combination of capital costs incurred and a proportionately smaller
increase in proved oil and gas reserves due to lower product prices when compared to the prior year period.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative costs incurred during the
three months ended June 30, 2002 were $2,213,000, 14% higher than the expense incurred in the second quarter of 2001. The increase was primarily due to a $470,000 increase in legal expenses partially offset by a reduction in personnel costs.
Additional legal expenses were incurred in connection with a royalty lawsuit filed against us in 2001. Lower personnel costs were primarily the result of smaller accruals for estimated 2002 bonuses and 401(k) contributions as compared to the prior
year quarter.
Interest and Other Income/Expense
Interest expense for the second quarter of 2002 was $4,894,000, a decrease of $1,188,000 from the comparable 2001 period. The decrease was the result of lower effective
interest rates partially offset by higher debt levels.
Income Tax Expense
The income tax provision of $1,983,000 was established using an effective U.S. Federal tax rate of 35%. The provision also includes a
$64,000 state and foreign income tax benefit. Income tax expense decreased over the prior year period as a result of lower pretax income as compared to the second quarter of 2001.

prior year period was primarily the result of recognition in 2001 of volumes related to payouts. Other revenue decreased $2,058,000 from
13
the prior year period primarily as a result of an $886,000 decrease in gas marketing margins, a $512,000 loss associated with the impairment of
assets by Voyager and $580,000 recognized in 2001 in connection with the bankruptcy settlement of a natural gas purchaser of ours.

Gas sales of $41,968,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002
were 25% lower than the $56,240,000 reported for the comparable 2001 period. Decreased prices reduced revenue $12,961,000 from the 2001 period. Prices decreased to $2.65 per Mcf from $3.44 per Mcf in the prior year. A reduction of sales volumes of
495,000 Mcf reduced revenue $1,311,000 as compared to the first six months of 2001. The larger volume in 2001 was primarily the result of the identification, in 2001, of properties where payouts had occurred, which enabled us to record additional
volumes and revenue attributable to our increased interests.
Oil sales were $9,332,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2002 compared to $13,297,000 in the first six months of 2001. The average oil sales price for the first half of 2002 decreased $3.85 per barrel to $19.74 per barrel and reduced oil revenue $2,168,000. The 91,000 barrel decrease in sales
volumes reduced revenue $1,797,000 from the prior year period. Higher volumes in the 2001 period were primarily due to adjustments recognized in the second quarter of 2001 related to properties acquired from CMS.
NGL sales of $819,000 for the 2002 period decreased $1,554,000 from $2,373,000 for the first half of 2001. NGL prices decreased from
$22.95 to $13.70 per barrel and reduced revenue $956,000.
Other Revenues
Other revenue of $7,751,000 in the first half of 2002 was $2,058,000 lower when compared to the 2001 period. The prior year included
$580,000 of revenue associated with the settlement of bankruptcy proceedings of a former gas purchaser of ours. Gas marketing margins decreased by $886,000 from the 2001 period. Additionally, losses of $512,000 from the Companys equity
affiliate, Voyager, were recorded in 2002 as a result of its impairment of assets.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the first six months of 2002 were $41,410,000, 12% lower than the $47,189,000 incurred
in the 2001 period.
14
Oil and Gas Production Costs
Oil and gas production costs were $21,605,000, a decrease of 24% from 2001 oil and gas production costs of $28,593,000. A reduction in
sales volumes, including 2001 prior period payout volumes, contributed to the lower production costs as did cost reduction measures we instituted early in 2002. Reductions in production overhead of $561,000 were primarily the result of reductions in
accruals for bonus and 401(k) contributions. Lower sales prices and volumes resulted in a $2,634,000 decrease of severance tax expense as compared to the first half of 2002.

Depletion for the first six months of 2002 was $13,287,000,
$305,000 higher than the 2001 period. Depletion expense increased $1,214,000 due to an increase in the depletion rate for 2002 and was partially offset by a decrease due to lower sales volumes. The higher depletion rate was the result of a
combination of capital costs incurred and a proportionately smaller increase in proved oil and gas reserves due to lower product prices when compared to the prior year period.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative costs incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2002 were $4,356,000, 4% lower than the expense incurred in the 2001 period. The decrease was primarily due to lower personnel costs resulting from
smaller accruals for estimated 2002 bonuses and 401(k) contributions and reductions in several other expense categories as compared to the prior year. An $800,000 increase in legal expenses partially offset the expense reductions. Additional legal
expense was incurred in connection with a royalty lawsuit filed against us in 2001.
Interest and Other
Income/Expense
Interest expense for the first six months of 2002 was $9,838,000, a decrease of $2,704,000
from the comparable 2001 period. The decrease was the result of lower effective interest rates partially offset by higher debt levels.
Income Tax Expense
The income tax provision of $3,208,000 was established using
an effective U.S. Federal tax rate of 35%. The provision also includes a $34,000 state and foreign income tax benefit. Income tax expense decreased over the prior year period as a result of lower pretax income as compared to the first six months of
2001. As of June 30, 2002, we had a deferred tax liability of $47,136,000. The decrease in the deferred tax liability over the December 31, 2001 balance was the result of a $7,151,000 increase in the deferred tax benefit associated with derivative
obligations. The decrease was partially offset by deferred tax expense of $3,174,000 incurred for 2002.
Liquidity and Capital
Resources
We believe that our capital resources are adequate to meet the requirements of our business. We
anticipate that the current remaining 2002 planned capital expenditures of $40,400,000 will be funded by cash flow from operations and credit facility utilization. However, future cash flows from operations are subject to a number of variables
including the level of production and oil and gas prices, and there can be no assurance those operations and capital resources will provide cash in sufficient amounts to maintain planned levels of capital expenditures.
Our principal operating sources of cash include sales of natural gas and crude oil and revenues from gas marketing, transportation and
processing. We sell approximately 32% of our natural gas production under fixed-price long-term contracts and an additional 43% of natural gas production is sold under fixed-price swap agreements. As a result, we benefit from significant
predictability of our natural gas revenues. Commodity market prices affect cash flows for that portion of natural gas not under contract as well as our crude oil and NGL sales.
15
Net cash from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was $11,043,000,
compared to cash provided from operations of $30,836,000 for the same period last year. The decrease resulted from lower earnings due primarily to lower revenues. In addition, payments of fourth quarter accrued expenses and capital expenditures were
in excess of 2002 expenses and capital expenditures accrued.
Net cash used for investing activities for the six
months ended June 30, 2002 was $18,577,000. Investing activities were comprised primarily of $20,290,000 expended for drilling of oil and gas properties and service facilities partially offset by $1,205,000 of proceeds from the sale of Wyoming
properties.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was $12,798,000. We
received $16,788,000, after payments for agency fees of $297,000, from the exercise of warrants covering 980,000 shares of stock and from the exercise of employee stock options covering 102,454 shares of stock. We also decreased net borrowings under
our credit facility by $2,000,000 during the first half of 2002. In May, our three-year revolving credit facility was amended to mature on May 13, 2005. It permits us to obtain revolving credit loans and to issue letters of credit for our account
from time to time in an aggregate amount not to exceed $250,000,000. As of June 30, 2002, our borrowing base was $210,000,000 of which $21,333,000 was available.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We have established policies and procedures for managing risk within our organization, including internal controls. The level of risk assumed by us is based on our objectives and capacity to manage risk.
Our primary risk exposure is related to natural gas commodity prices. We have mitigated the downside risk of adverse price movements
through the use of swaps, futures and forward contracts; however, we have also limited future gains from favorable movements.
Commodity Price Risk
We enter into various financial contracts to hedge our exposure to
commodity price risk associated with anticipated future natural gas production. These contracts have included price ceilings and floors, no-cost collars and fixed price swaps. We sell approximately 25,000 Mcfd and 10,000 Mcfd of natural gas under
long-term fixed price contracts at $2.49 per Mcf and $2.47 per Mcf, respectively, through March 2009. Approximately 7,400 Mcfd sold under these contracts are third party volumes controlled by us. Approximately 38,059 Mcfd of our equity natural gas
are hedged using fixed price swap agreements. Additionally, we have entered into gas collars for 5,000 Mcfd through October 2002 with a price range of $2.55 to $3.50 per Mcf. As a result, we benefit from significant predictability of our natural gas
revenues.
Crude oil collars were put into place during the second quarter of 2002. The collars are in affect
through December 2003 and cover 1,500 Bbld with an average price range of $21.00 to $28.80 per barrel.
Commodity
price fluctuations affect the remaining natural gas and crude oil volumes as well as our NGL volumes. Up to 4,500 Mcfd of natural gas is committed at market price through May 2004. Additional gas volumes of 16,500 Mcfd are committed at market price
through September 2008. Approximately 11,500 Mcfd sold under these contracts are third party volumes controlled by us.
The following table summarizes our open financial hedge positions as of June 30, 2002 related to natural gas and oil production.

Cinnabar Energy Services & Trading, LLC, our wholly owned marketing company,
also enters into various financial contracts to hedge its exposure to commodity price risk associated with future contractual natural gas sales and purchases. These contracts include either fixed and floating price sales or purchases from third
parties. As a result of these firm sales and purchase commitments and associated financial price swaps, the hedge derivatives have qualified as either cash flow or fair value hedges. At June 30, 2002, we recorded an asset of $9,000 for the fair
value of financial floating price swaps and a liability of $10,000 for the fair value of firm sales commitments.
The following table summarizes Cinnabars open financial derivative positions and hedged firm commitments as of June 30, 2002 related to natural gas marketing.

Utilization of our hedging program may result in natural gas and
crude oil realized prices varying from market prices that we receive from the sale of natural gas and crude oil. As a result of the financial hedging programs, gas revenues in the first six months of 2002 and 2001 were $1,141,000 and $22,238,000,
respectively, lower than if the hedging program had not been in effect. Marketing revenues were $1,981,000 lower as a result of hedging activities in the first six months of 2002.
The fair value of all natural gas and crude oil financial contracts and associated firm sales and purchase commitments as of June 30, 2002 and 2001 was estimated based on
published market prices of natural gas and crude oil for the periods covered by the contracts. The net differential between the prices in each contract and market prices for future periods, as adjusted for estimated basis, has been applied to the
volumes stipulated in each contract to arrive at an estimated future value. This estimated future value was discounted on each contract at rates commensurate with federal treasury instruments with similar contractual lives. As a result, the fair
value of our derivatives does not necessarily represent the value a third party would pay to assume our contract positions.
Interest Rate Risk
As of June 30, 2002, $75,000,000 of our variable-rate debt was hedged
with interest rate swaps converting the debts floating LIBOR base to a 6.72% fixed-rate resulting in a liability of $2,615,000. The $53,000,000 of our fixed-rate Subordinated Notes were hedged with an interest rate swap that converts the
debts 14.75% fixed-rate debt to a floating three-month LIBOR base resulting in an asset of $196,000 as of June 30, 2002. We revalued the Subordinated Notes to offset the fair value of the swap as required by SFAS No. 133. Interest expense for
the six-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 was $900,000 and $402,000 higher, respectively, as a result of the interest rate swaps.
On July 15, 2002, we closed our interest rate hedge related to the fixed rate interest paid on the $53,000,000 Subordinated Notes. We realized a gain of $1,000,000. The gain has been deferred and will be recognized as a
reduction of interest expense over the remaining life of the debt.
