ARABIAN AMERICAN DEVELOPMENT COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting
only of normal and recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair presentation of Arabian American
Development Company and Subsidiaries financial position and operating
results for the interim period. Interim period results are not necessarily
indicative of the results for the calendar year. Please refer to
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations for additional information in the Company's December 31, 2003
Annual Report on Form 10-K.
These financial statements include the accounts of Arabian American
Development Company (the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary,
American Shield Refining Company (the "Refining Company"), which owns all
of the capital stock of Texas Oil and Chemical Company II, Inc. ("TOCCO").

("South Hampton"), and approximately 93% of the capital stock of Productos
Quimicos Coin, S.A. de. C.V. ("Coin"), a specialty petrochemical products
refining company located near Veracruz, Mexico. South Hampton owns all of
the capital stock of Gulf State Pipe Line Company, Inc. ("Gulf State").
The Company also owns approximately 51% of the capital stock of a Nevada
mining company, Pioche-Ely Valley Mines, Inc. ("Pioche"), which does not
conduct any substantial business activity. The Refining Company and its
subsidiaries constitute the Company's Specialty Petrochemicals or Refining
Segment. Pioche and the Company's mineral properties in Saudi Arabia
constitute its Mining Segment.
2. INVENTORIES

5. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
South Hampton, together with several other companies, is presently a
defendant in three lawsuits filed by former employees of South Hampton and
other refineries. The suits primarily claim illness and disease resulting
from alleged exposure to chemicals, including benzene, butadiene and/or
isoprene, during their employment. The plaintiffs claim the defendant
companies engaged in the business of manufacturing, selling and/or
distributing these chemicals in a manner which subjected them to liability
for
6
unspecified actual and punitive damages. In October 2003, a motion for a
summary judgment was granted to South Hampton for a previous lawsuit and
in July 2004, the plaintiff in another previous lawsuit dismissed South
Hampton from the lawsuit due to a lack of connection with the plaintiff.
South Hampton is vigorously defending itself against these claims and
believes it has adequate insurance coverage to protect it financially from
any damage awards that might be incurred.
In addition, South Hampton is a defendant in a lawsuit filed in September
2001 alleging that the plaintiff became ill from exposure to asbestos
while employed by South Hampton from 1961 through 1975. Mediation occurred
during 2003 in which the plaintiff made a financial offer of $200,000.
South Hampton counter-offered a structured settlement of $90,000. To date,
the plaintiff has not accepted or rejected the counter-offer or withdrawn
their $200,000 settlement offer. A new trial date has been set for
September 2004. South Hampton has named additional parties in the case. It
is uncertain at this time if the case will reach trial as the other
parties have requested a change of venue. The consolidated financial
statements do not include any amounts related to this case.
In August 1997, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality ("TCEQ")
notified South Hampton that it had violated various rules and procedures.
It proposed administrative penalties totaling $709,408 and recommended
that South Hampton undertake certain actions necessary to bring its
refinery operations into compliance. The violations generally relate to
various air and water quality issues. Appropriate modifications have been
made by South Hampton where it appeared there were legitimate concerns.
On February 2, 2000, the TCEQ amended its pending administrative
enforcement action against South Hampton to add allegations dating through
May 21, 1998 of 35 regulatory violations relating to air quality control
and industrial solid waste requirements. The TCEQ proposed that
administrative penalties be increased to approximately $765,000 and that
certain corrective actions be taken. On December 13, 2001, the TCEQ
notified South Hampton that it found several violations of its rules
during a record review in October 2001 and proposed a settlement of
$59,375. South Hampton settled this particular claim in April 2002 for
approximately $5,900.
On April 11, 2003, the TCEQ reduced the proposed penalties to
approximately $690,000. On May 25, 2003, a settlement hearing with the
TCEQ was held and additional information was submitted to the TCEQ in
June, October, and November 2003 and June 2004. South Hampton believes the
original proposed penalties and the additional allegations are greatly
overstated and intends to continue to vigorously defend itself against
these allegations, the proposed penalties and proposed corrective actions.
Management believes the penalties will be settled for amounts less than
those proposed. Management has accrued an estimate for a proposed
settlement. There are no assurances that the amounts settled will not be
different than the amounts accrued. Negotiations between South Hampton and
the TCEQ are expected to continue in order to reach a final settlement.
On February 23, 2004, by court order, a creditor was awarded Coin's plant
facilities as a result of a mortgage foreclosure proceeding. See Note 8.
6. LONG-TERM DEBT
The Company has an interest-free loan of $11,000,000 from the Saudi Arabia
Ministry of Finance and National Economy, the proceeds of which were used
to finance the development phase of the Al Masane Project. The loan was
repayable in ten equal annual installments of $1,100,000, with the initial
installment payable on December 31, 1984. None of the ten scheduled
payments has been made. Pursuant to the mining lease agreement covering
the Al Masane Project, the Company intends to repay the loan in accordance
with a repayment schedule to be agreed upon with the Saudi Arabian
government from its share of cash flows. An agreement has not yet been
reached regarding either the rescheduling or source of these payments. The
loan is collateralized by all of the Company's "movable and immovable"
assets in Saudi Arabia.
South Hampton entered into a $3.25 million revolving credit agreement with
a bank in September 1999, which terminated on June 15, 2003. On July 29,
2003 a Purchase and Sale Agreement was negotiated with the same bank
whereby the bank will purchase the accounts receivable of South Hampton at
a 15% discount. The discounted amount is returned to South Hampton, less
fees, when the invoice is collected. Under this factoring agreement, the
bank has agreed to purchase up to $4.5 million of invoices. The initial
proceeds of the agreement were used to retire the revolving credit
agreement in 2003. Management expects the fees and interest charged by the
bank in this arrangement will equate to an effective interest rate of
approximately 9.0%. At June 30, 2004, approximately $4,260,000 of
receivables had been sold and, due to the revolving nature of the
agreement, also remained outstanding. The agreement restricts the payment
of any dividends to the Company by South
7
Hampton to an amount which does not exceed $50,000 a month, provided that
South Hampton is not in default under the agreement. The agreement is
collateralized by a security interest in South Hampton's accounts
receivable and inventory. At June 30, 2004, South Hampton was in
compliance with these provisions.
In connection with the acquisition of the common stock of Coin, South
Hampton and Gulf State entered into a $3.5 million loan agreement with a
commercial lending company in December 1999 that was collateralized by a
first security interest in all of their assets, except those pledged to
the bank under the revolving credit agreement mentioned in the preceding
paragraph. The loan was paid in full in 2003.
At June 30, 2004, Coin had two loans payable to Mexican banks in the
outstanding principal amounts of $1,111,948 and $2,023,371. The first loan
is payable in monthly payments through October 2004 and the second loan is
payable in quarterly payments through March 2007. The first loan bears
interest at 5% and the second loan bears interest at the LIBOR rate plus
seven points (LIBOR was 1.36% at June 30, 2004). Both loans are
collateralized by all of the assets of Coin, including the plant located
near Veracruz. At June 30, 2004, Coin was in default of the loan covenants
under both loans as a result of not having made its monthly and quarterly
payments. As a result, the loans are classified as current in the
financial statements. Unpaid interest on the two loans of $817,586 and
$2,233,210, respectively, are included in Accrued Interest at June 30,
2004. As discussed in Notes 5 and 8, the creditor of the first loan
initiated a mortgage foreclosure proceeding that resulted in a court
ordered public auction of the plant facilities on February 23, 2004.
At June 30, 2004, the Company has a liability to its President and Chief
Executive Officer of approximately $1,168,000 for accrued salary and
termination benefits, a loan payable to him of $53,000 and a loan payable
to his wife of $100,000. There are also loans payable to two stockholders
of the Company of $465,000 and $100,000.
7. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS Nos.
138 and 149, establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments and hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting
and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument be
recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at
its fair value. The statement requires that changes in the derivative
instrument's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless
specific hedge accounting criteria are met. Special accounting for
qualifying hedges allows a derivative instrument's gains and losses to
offset related results on the hedged item in the income statement, to the
extent effective, and requires that a company must formally document,
designate and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge
accounting treatment. SFAS No. 133, as amended, was adopted by the Company
on January 1, 2001 and SFAS No. 149 was adopted on June 30, 2003.
South Hampton periodically enters into financial instruments to hedge the
cost of natural gasoline, the primary source of feedstock, and natural
gas, the fuel needed to operate the plant. These derivative agreements are
not designated as hedges. In 2001 and 2002, South Hampton entered into
three commodity swap agreements to limit the effect of significant
fluctuations in natural gasoline prices. The last of these agreements
expired in January 2003. In March and April 2003, two new agreements were
entered into with the last agreement expiring on July 31, 2003. The effect
of these agreements was to limit South Hampton's exposure by fixing the
natural gasoline price of a portion of its feedstock purchases over the
term of the agreements. The agreements covered approximately 20% to 40% of
the average monthly feedstock requirements. During the fourth quarter of
2003, South Hampton entered into option contracts for the purchase and
sale of natural gas. These contracts expire in September 2004 and March
2005 and cover approximately 72% of the average monthly fuel requirements.
In the first quarter of 2004, South Hampton entered into five feedstock
swap agreements that expire through June 2004. In the second quarter of
2004, South Hampton entered into five feedstock swap agreements and ten
option contracts for the purchase and sale of natural gas that expire
through March 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, the
net realized gain from the derivative agreements was $506,270 and $89,300,
respectively. There was an estimated unrealized gain for the six months
ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 of approximately $123,000 and $18,000,
respectively.

NOTE 8 - COIN ASSETS SUBJECT TO FORECLOSURE
A creditor of Coin initiated a mortgage foreclosure proceeding that
resulted in a court ordered public auction of the plant facilities in
Mexico on February 23, 2004. As a result, the court awarded the plant
facilities to the creditor. The court order required legal transfer of the
assets to the creditor within three days, however, the transfer has yet to
occur and the Company, management of Coin and Coin's legal counsel are
unable to determine a date certain for the legal transfer of ownership. As
a result, the consolidated financial statements do not include any
adjustments that may result. The following summarizes the proforma effect
of the foreclosure on the June 30, 2004 consolidated financial statements:

ARABIAN AMERICAN DEVELOPMENT COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
GENERAL
Statements in Part 1, Item 2 as well as elsewhere in, or incorporated by
reference in, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q regarding the Company's
financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of the Company's
management for future operations and other statements that are not historical
facts, are "forward-looking statements" as that term is defined under applicable
Federal securities laws. In some cases, "forward-looking statements" can be
identified by terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "expects," "plans,"
"anticipates," "contemplates," "proposes," believes," "estimates," "predicts,"
"potential" or "continue" or the negative of such terms and other comparable
terminology. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and
other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
expressed or implied by such statements. Such risks, uncertainties and factors
include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions domestically and
internationally; insufficient cash flows from operating activities; difficulties
in obtaining financing; outstanding debt and other financial and legal
obligations; competition; industry cycles; feedstock, specialty petrochemical
product and mineral prices; feedstock availability; technological developments;
regulatory changes; environmental matters; foreign government instability;
foreign legal and political concepts; and foreign currency fluctuations, as well
as other risks detailed in the Company's filings with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission, including this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, all of which
are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the Company's control.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company operates in two business segments, specialty petrochemicals
(which is composed of the entities owned by the Refining Company) and mining.
Its corporate overhead needs are minimal. A discussion of each segment's
liquidity and capital resources follows.
SPECIALTY PETROCHEMICALS SEGMENT. Historically, this segment has
contributed substantially all of the Company's internally generated cash flows
from operating activities and its primary sources of revenue are the specialty
products refineries owned and operated by South Hampton near Silsbee, Texas and
by Coin in Mexico. Beginning in February 2001, the decline of feedstock and
natural gas prices returned the Company to a positive cash flow, which it
attained for the remainder of 2001 and throughout 2002. During 2003, the Company
experienced tighter margins resulting from the rise in feedstock prices. These
prices remained at historically high levels throughout 2003, which resulted in
operating losses for the segment in 2003. After January 2004, feedstock prices
began to fall back to more moderate levels.
South Hampton obtains its feedstock requirements from a sole source
vendor. On May 7, 2004, South Hampton and the supplier signed a letter of intent
whereby the supplier will purchase up to $1,800,000 of capital equipment for use
by South Hampton to facilitate the execution of a new processing agreement
between a large customer and South Hampton. The equipment purchased by the
supplier will remain the property of the supplier who will enter into a ground
lease for the land upon which the capital equipment is located. South Hampton
and the supplier will also enter into a throughput arrangement whereby South
Hampton will agree to throughput product (utilizing the purchased capital
equipment) from the supplier at a rate and volume to be negotiated based upon
the new agreement with the customer. The terms of both the throughput
arrangement and the ground lease with the supplier will be five years. As
security for the funds used to purchase the capital equipment and to secure
outstanding debts for feedstock purchased from the supplier, South Hampton
executed a mortgage in June 2004 covering most of the refinery's equipment. A
gas sales contract was signed on June 1, 2004 between South Hampton and the
supplier for the purchase of 65,000 barrels per month of natural gasoline on
open account for the period from June 1, 2004 through May 31, 2006 and year to
year thereafter with 30 days written notice by either party. A provision of the
contract states that South Hampton will begin reducing the current debt to the
supplier by $250,000 per quarter beginning July 1, 2004. The supplier is
currently the sole provider of the refinery's feedstock supply. At June 30,
2004, South Hampton owed the supplier approximately $6.2 million.
As mentioned in Note 6, Coin was not in compliance with certain covenants
contained in its loan agreements at June 30, 2004, and therefore, its creditors
have the right to declare the debt to be immediately due and payable. If this
were to occur, Coin would currently be unable to pay the entire amount due. On
February 23, 2004, the Coin plant facilities were awarded to a creditor in a
foreclosure hearing. See Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements.
10
MINING SEGMENT. This segment is in the development stage. Its most
significant asset is the Al Masane mining project in Saudi Arabia, which is a
net user of the Company's available cash and capital resources. Implementation
of the project has been delayed until the open market prices for the minerals to
be produced by the mine improve.
On February 23, 2004, the Company's President received a letter from the
Deputy Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources stating that the Council of
Ministers had issued a resolution, dated November 17, 2003, which directed the
Minister, or whomever he may designate, to discuss with the President of the
Company the implementation of a work program, similar to that which is attached
to the Company's mining lease, to start during a period not to exceed two years,
and also the payment of the past due surface rentals. If agreeable, a document
is to be signed to that effect. The resolution stated further that, if no
agreement is reached, the Ministry of Finance will give the Council of Ministers
its recommendation regarding the $11 million loan granted to the Company.
After discussions with the Deputy Minister, the Company President
responded, in a letter to the Minister dated March 23, 2004, that the Company
will agree to abide by the resolution and will start implementing the work
program to build the mine, treatment plant and infrastructure within two years
from the date of the signed agreement. The work program was prepared by the
Company's technical consultants and was attached to the letter. The Company also
will agree to pay the past due surface rentals, which now total approximately
$586,000, in two equal installments, the first on December 31, 2004 and the
second on December 31, 2005 and will continue to pay the surface rentals as
specified in the Mining Lease Agreement. On May 15, 2004, an agreement was
signed with the Ministry covering these provisions. In the event the Company
does not start to implement the program during the two-year period, the matter
will be referred to the concerned parties to seek direction in accordance with
the Mining Code and other concerned codes.
The Company intends to make preparations to start to implement the work
program, which will take approximately twenty-two months to complete, after
which commercial production can begin. The Company plans to update the
feasibility study, and, if positive, will attempt to locate a joint venture
partner to manage the project and attempt to obtain acceptable financing to
commercially develop the program now that the prices of zinc, copper, gold and
silver have increased significantly. There is no assurance that a joint venture
partner can be located, a joint venture formed or, if it is formed, that the
joint venture would be able to obtain acceptable financing for the project.
The Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources announced on April 2, 2002
that a new revised Saudi Arabian Mining Code would be issued, which would
expedite the issuance of licenses and has new incentives to encourage investment
by the private sector, both Saudi and foreign, in the development of mineral
resources in Saudi Arabia. The mining code has been revised and was recently
presented to the Council of Ministers for approval.
On June 22, 1999, the Company submitted a formal application for a
five-year exclusive mineral exploration license for the Greater Al Masane Area
of approximately 2,850 square kilometers, which surrounds the Al Masane mining
lease area and includes the Wadi Qatan and Jebel Harr areas. The Company
previously worked in the Greater Al Masane Area after obtaining written
authorization from the Saudi Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources, and
has expended over $3 million in exploration work. Geophysical, geochemical and
geological work and diamond core drilling on the Greater Al Masane area has
revealed mineralization similar to that discovered at Al Masane. The application
for the new exploration license is still pending and is expected to be acted
upon after the proposed new Saudi Arabian Mining Code is approved. If the Saudi
Arabian government does not issue the exploration license, the Company believes
that it will be entitled to a refund of the monies expended, since the Company
was authorized by the Saudi Arabian government to carry out exploration work in
this area while waiting for the exploration license to be issued.
Management also is addressing two other significant financing issues
within this segment. These issues are the $11 million note payable due the Saudi
Arabian government and accrued salaries and termination benefits of
approximately $933,000 due employees working in Saudi Arabia (this amount does
not include any amounts due the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer
who also primarily works in Saudi Arabia and is owed approximately $1,168,000).
11
Regarding the note payable, this loan was originally due in ten annual
installments beginning in 1984. The Company has not made any repayments nor has
it received any payment demands or other communications regarding the note
payable from the Saudi government. By memorandum to the King of Saudi Arabia in
1986, the Saudi Ministry of Finance and National Economy recommended that the
$11 million note be incorporated into a loan from the Saudi Industrial
Development Fund ("SIDF") to finance 50% of the cost of the Al Masane project,
repayment of the total amount of which would be made through a mutually agreed
upon repayment schedule from the Company's share of the operating cash flows
generated by the project. The Company remains active in Saudi Arabia and
received the Al Masane mining lease at a time when it had not made any of the
agreed upon repayment installments. Based on its experience to date, management
believes that as long as the Company diligently attempts to explore and develop
the Al Masane project no repayment demand will be made. The Company has
communicated to the Saudi government that its delay in repaying the note is a
direct result of the government's lengthy delay in granting the Al Masane lease
and has requested formal negotiations to restructure this obligation. Based on
its interpretation of the Al Masane mining lease and other documents, management
believes the government is likely to agree to link repayment of this note to the
Company's share of the operating cash flows generated by the commercial
development of the Al Masane project and to a long-term installment repayment
schedule. In the event the Saudi government was to demand immediate repayment of
this obligation, which management considers unlikely, the Company would be
unable to pay the entire amount due.
With respect to the accrued salaries and termination benefits due
employees working in Saudi Arabia, the Company plans to continue employing these
individuals until it is able to generate sufficient excess funds to begin
payment of this liability. Management will then begin the process of gradually
releasing certain employees and paying its obligations as they are released from
the Company's employment.
The Company's mineral interests in the United States are its ownership
interest in Pioche, which has been inactive for many years. Its properties
include 48 patented and 5 unpatented claims totaling approximately 1,500 acres
in Lincoln County, Nevada. There are prospects and mines on these claims that
previously produced silver, gold, lead, zinc and copper. There is also a
300-ton-a-day processing mill on property owned by Pioche. The mill is not
currently in use and a significant expenditure would be required in order to put
the mill into continuous operation, if commercial mining is to be conducted on
the property.
At this time, the Company has no definitive plans for the development of
its domestic mining assets. It periodically receives proposals from outside
parties who are interested in possibly developing or using certain assets.
Management will continue to review these proposals as they are received, but at
this time does not anticipate making any significant domestic mining capital
expenditures or receiving any significant proceeds from the sale or use of these
assets.
If the Company seeks additional outside financing, there is no assurance
that sufficient funds could be obtained. It is also possible that the terms of
any additional financing that the Company would be able to obtain would be
unfavorable to the Company and its existing shareholders.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
SPECIALTY PETROCHEMICALS SEGMENT. In the quarter ended June 30, 2004,
total refined product sales (including Coin) increased approximately $3,454,000
or 38%, while the cost of sales (excluding depreciation) increased approximately
$3,128,000 or 35% from the same period in 2003. Consequently, the total gross
profit margin on product sales in the second quarter of 2004 increased
approximately $326,000 or 207% compared to the same period in 2003. The cost of
sales and gross profit margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 include an
estimated unrealized gain of approximately $123,000 on derivative agreements.
Coin's sales for the quarter increased approximately $733,000 or 1,411%, while
its cost of sales (excluding depreciation) increased approximately $561,000 or
448%. Coin had a positive gross profit margin on product sales in this quarter
of approximately $99,000, compared to a negative gross profit margin of
approximately $73,000 in the same quarter in 2003.
In the six months ended June 30, 2004, total refined product sales
increased approximately $5,745,000 or 34%, while the cost of sales (excluding
depreciation) increased approximately $4,919,000 or 28% from the same period in
2003. Consequently, the total gross profit margin on product sales in the first
six months of 2004 increased approximately $826,000 compared to the same period
in 2003. The cost of sales and gross profit margin for the six months ended June
30, 2004 include an estimated unrealized gain of approximately $123,000 on
derivative agreements. Coin's sales increased approximately $836,000 or 348%,
while its cost of sales (excluding depreciation) increased approximately
$680,000 or 249%. Coin had a gross profit margin on product sales for the six
months of approximately $123,000, compared to a negative gross profit margin of
approximately $33,000 for the same period in 2003.
12
The first quarter of 2004 was a difficult period for the Company and the
petrochemical industry in general. Feedstock prices rose to record highs for the
Company at an average of $1.01 per gallon, which was above the previous record
of $0.99 per gallon in February 2003. With feedstock prices rising rapidly, the
Company was unable to raise product prices quickly enough to cover the increased
costs resulting in severe losses in January and, to a lesser extent, February.
By March, the Company had raised its product prices and adjusted its business to
cover the increases, which enabled it to attain a positive cash flow position
again. Feedstock prices moderated early in the second quarter but by the end of
the quarter the prices were again in the range of $1.00 per gallon. The Company
has been able to keep product prices high enough to maintain a positive cash
flow and cover the higher fuel gas and transportation costs. Sales demand has
remained high during the period even with the constant price increases to the
customers. The Company has again entered into derivative agreements to control
the sudden price spikes and to provide price protection. Management believes
that if the derivative agreements can moderate or slow any changes in the
overall cost of feedstock, product prices could be raised over time to avoid the
large losses experienced in the past. Generally, approximately 50% of the
monthly feedstock requirements are covered at any one time. This ratio cushions
the price increases and allows the Company to experience some benefit when the
price drops. In the second quarter of 2004, the derivative agreements had a
realized gain of approximately $497,000 and an estimated unrealized gain of
approximately $123,000 for a total positive effect of approximately $620,000.
The price of fuel gas, which is the refining operation's largest single
expense, continued to be high during the second quarter of 2004 compared to
historical levels. The Company has entered into option contracts for fuel gas
through the first quarter of 2005, which have been effective so far in
minimizing the impact of price fluctuations in the market. The Company has also
been able to pass through the price increases as they have occurred.
The toll processing fee revenue for the second quarter of 2004 of
approximately $1,011,000 was an increase of approximately $115,000 or 13% over
the fees for the same period in 2003. The toll processing fee revenue for the
first six months of 2004 of approximately $1,817,000 was a decrease of
approximately $161,000 or 8% under the fees for the same period in 2003. Some of
the decrease in this period was caused by the loss of a large customer in the
fourth quarter of 2003. The customer's feedstock changed and the Company's
equipment was no longer suitable to produce the products needed by the customer.
Other large customers are very active and remain on long-term contracts. While
there are some fluctuations in the tolling volumes handled, toll processing has
developed into a very steady business over the last five years.
Interest expense increased as the debt of the Company increased due to the
rising feedstock prices and inadequate cash flow. Other expenses of the Company
remained flat or decreased over the last part of 2003 and in early 2004. The
Company's largest supplier of feedstock asked for security on the account
because of the large increase in the amounts owed for feedstock purchases over
the last nine months. The Company recently negotiated a security agreement with
the supplier, which will solidify the supply of feedstock to the Company at
favorable terms compared to what is otherwise available in the market. Under the
security agreement, the supplier will have a first lien on most of South
Hampton's assets.
Coin restarted production in the first quarter of 2004 after having been
shut down during the latter part of 2003 for economic reasons. Coin recently
procured a sales contract with the largest user of pentanes in Mexico, which has
given the operation sufficient volume to justify operating on a daily basis.
Cash flow has been negative, due primarily to start-up costs and the weak
exchange value of the dollar versus the peso. The refinery currently continues
to move product at a substantial rate into both the Mexican and U.S. markets.
The plant facilities of Coin have been foreclosed by a creditor (See Note 8 to
the consolidated financial statements).
MINING SEGMENT AND GENERAL CORPORATE EXPENSES. None of the Company's other
operations generate significant operating or other revenues. The minority
interest amount represents the Pioche and Coin minority stockholders' shares of
the losses from the Pioche and Coin operations. Pioche losses are primarily
attributable to the costs of maintaining the Nevada mining properties.
The Company assesses the carrying values of its assets on an ongoing
basis. Factors which may affect the carrying values of the mining properties
include, but are not limited to, mineral prices, capital cost estimates, the
estimated operating costs of any mines and related processing, ore grade and
related metallurgical characteristics, the design of any mines and the timing of
any mineral production. Prices currently used to assess the recoverability of
the Al Masane project costs, based on production to begin no sooner that 2004,
are $1.04 per pound for copper and $.60 per pound for zinc. Copper and zinc
comprise in excess of 80% of the expected value of production. Using these price
assumptions, there were no asset impairments at June 30, 2004. There are no
assurances that, particularly in the event of a prolonged period of depressed
mineral prices, the Company will not be required to take a material write-down
of its mineral properties in the future.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Other than as disclosed, there have been no material changes in the
Company's exposure to market risk from the disclosure included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
participation of the Company's management, including the Company's President and
Chief Executive Officer and Treasurer, of the effectiveness of the Company's
disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this
report. Based upon that evaluation, the President and Chief Executive Officer
and Treasurer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this
report, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective such
that information relating to the Company (including its consolidated
subsidiaries) required to be disclosed in the Company's Securities and Exchange
Commission reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and
forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management,
including the President and Chief Executive Officer and Treasurer, as
appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
During the period covered by this report, there were no changes in the
Company's internal control over financial reporting that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal
control over financial reporting.
