CALLON PETROLEUM COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1997
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The financial information presented as of any date other than December
31, has been prepared from the books and records without audit.
Financial information as of December 31, has been derived from the
audited financial statements of the Company, but does not include all
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the
financial information for the period indicated, have been included. For
further information regarding the Company's accounting policies, refer
to the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes for the year
ended December 31, 1996 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K dated March 24, 1997.
2. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The assumed conversion of preferred stock into common stock was not
included in any current year or prior year calculations due to the
antidilutive effect.
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 128 ("FAS 128"), "Earnings Per Share", which simplifies
the computation of earnings per share. FAS 128 is effective for
financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997
and requires restatement for all prior period earnings per share data
presented. Accordingly, basic earnings per share and diluted earnings
per share calculated in accordance with FAS 128 were as follows:

Diluted earnings per share ....... $ 0.08 $ 0.05 $ 0.63 $ 0.20
3. ACQUISITIONS
In June of 1997, the Company acquired an 18.8% working interest in the
Mobile Area Block 864 Unit, a 17.5% working interest in Mobile Area
Blocks 863 and 907, and a 35% working interest in Mobile Area Block 908
from ELF Exploration, Inc. The net purchase price was $11.8 million and
was funded by the Company's Credit Facility.
4. SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES
On July 31, 1997 the Company issued $36 million of 10.125% Series A
Senior Subordinated Notes due 2002. Interest is payable quarterly
beginning September 15, 1997. The Senior Subordinated Notes were
offered in a private placement transaction. Until November 10, 1997,
the Series A Notes are exchangeable for $36 million aggregate principal
amount of the Company's 10.125% Series B Senior Subordinated Notes due
2002 that have been registered under the Securities Act.
The net proceeds to the Company, after costs of the transaction, were
used to repay the outstanding balance on Callon's Credit Facility and
fund a portion of the remaining 1997 capital expenditure budget.
6
5. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
In October 1997, the Company agreed to purchase Chevron U.S.A Inc.'s
interest in the Mobile Block 864 Area (the "Chevron Acquisition") for
$34 million effective July 1, 1997. The Chevron Acquisition is expected
to close November 1997 for a net purchase price of $30.9 million.
Because all working interest owners in this property, including the
Company, have a preferential right to acquire a proportionate share of
this Chevron interest, the Company's total interest acquired could be
reduced by 39%. No assurances can be made that the Company will be able
to successfully consummate the Chevron Acquisition or as to whether
preferential rights will be exercised.
On November 4, 1997, the Company filed a registration statement with
the Securities and Exchange Commission whereby 2,300,000 shares of the
Company's common stock will be offered. The net proceeds will be used
to fund the Chevron Acquisition and a portion of the Company's budgeted
exploration and development expenditures.
7
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
GENERAL
The Company's revenues, profitability and future growth and the carrying value
of its oil and gas properties are substantially dependent on prevailing prices
of oil and gas. The Company's ability to maintain or increase its borrowing
capacity and to obtain additional capital on attractive terms is also
substantially dependent upon oil and gas prices. Prices for oil and gas are
subject to large fluctuation in response to relatively minor changes in the
supply of and demand for oil and gas, market uncertainty and a variety of
additional factors beyond the control of the Company. Any substantial and
extended decline in the price of oil or gas would have an adverse effect on the
Company's carrying value of its proved reserves, borrowing capacity, revenues,
profitability and cash flows from operations.
The following discussion is intended to assist in an understanding of the
Company's historical financial position and results of operations for the three
and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996. The Company's
historical financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this
quarterly report contain detailed information that should be referred to in
conjunction with the following discussion.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's primary sources of capital are its cash flow from operations,
borrowings from financial institutions and the sale of debt and equity
securities. Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ending
September 30, 1997 totaled $20.3 million. Other sources of cash during the first
nine months were $54.5 million advanced under the Company's Credit Facility and
sale of senior subordinated notes and $4.4 million was generated from the sale
of mineral interests. During the first nine months of 1997, debt payments were
$18.5 million, capital expenditures were $61 million and $2.1 million was paid
as dividends to the preferred stockholders.
At September 30, 1997, the Company had working capital of $3.6 million and a
current ratio of 1.3 to 1.
The Company has budgeted $85.6 million in capital expenditures through fiscal
1998. During the first nine months of 1997, the Company has expended
approximately $24 million on drilling, development and exploration activities
and $37 million in acquisitions of producing properties, undeveloped mineral
interests and seismic information attributable to future drilling sites. The
Company intends to continue evaluating other potential producing property
acquisitions and drilling opportunities. The capital budget will be financed
with the sale of debt and equity securities, projected cash flow from operations
and unused borrowings under the Company's Credit Facility.
On July 31, 1997 the Company issued $36 million of 10.125% Series A Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2002. Interest is payable quarterly beginning September
15, 1997. The Senior Subordinated Notes were offered in a private placement
transaction. The net proceeds to the Company, after costs of the transaction,
were used to repay the outstanding balance on Callon's Credit Facility and fund
a portion of the remaining 1997 capital expenditure budget.

COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
1997 AND THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996.
OIL AND GAS PRODUCTION AND REVENUES
Total oil and gas revenues increased 38% from $6.3 million in 1996 to $8.7
million in 1997. This increase is largely the result of increased gas production
from newly acquired properties.
Oil production during the third quarter of 1997 totaled 114,000 barrels and
generated $2.0 million in revenues compared to 149,000 barrels and $2.7 million
in revenues for the same period in 1996. Third quarter average daily production
decreased from 1,619 barrels per day in 1996 to 1,236 barrels per day in 1997.
Average oil prices received in the third quarter of 1997 were $17.71 compared to
$17.90 in 1996. This reduction in production and corresponding reduction in
revenues is normal considering the maturity of the owned properties.
Gas production during the third quarter of 1997 totaled 2.95 billion cubic feet
and generated $6.7 million in revenues compared to 1.87 billion cubic feet and
$3.6 million in revenues during the same period in 1996. The average sales price
for the third quarter of 1997 averaged $2.28 per thousand cubic feet compared to
$1.96 per thousand cubic feet at this time last year. Although the North Dauphin
Island Field production was lower than last year, production from the new
properties more than offset this decline.

LEASE OPERATING EXPENSES
Lease operating expenses, including severance taxes, for the three-month period
ending September 30, 1997 were $2.1 million, substantially unchanged from $2.0
million for the same period in 1996. Average severance tax per Mcfe declined due
to a significantly higher portion of the Company's production coming from wells
on federal offshore leases, not subject to severance taxes.
DEPRECIATION, DEPLETION AND AMORTIZATION
Depreciation, depletion and amortization for the three months ending September
30, 1997 and 1996 was $3.7 million and $2.9 million, respectively, reflecting
the overall increase in production. For the three-month periods ending September
30, 1997 and 1996, the per Mcf equivalent amount was $1.02 and $1.03,
respectively.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE
General and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 1997
was $0.9 million compared to $0.6 million for the three months ended September
30, 1996. This expense increase is generally attributable to increased
compensation expense attributable to stock plans and a reduction in management
fees as a result of property sales.
10
INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expense increased from $136,000 during the three months ended September
30, 1996 to $735,000 during the three months ended September 30, 1997 reflecting
the increase in the Company's long-term debt.
COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997
AND THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996.
OIL AND GAS PRODUCTION AND REVENUES
For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, total oil and gas revenues
increased by $11.0 million, or 59%, to $29.6 million when compared to $18.6
million for the same period in 1996.
For the nine months ending September 30, 1997, oil production and revenues
decreased to 351,000 barrels and $6.6 million, respectively. For the comparable
period in 1996, oil production was 451,000 barrels while revenues totaled $8.1
million. Oil prices during the first nine months of 1997 averaged $18.83,
compared to $18.05 for the same period in 1996. Although prices were higher, the
loss of production from the properties that were sold and the decline in other
non-core properties caused the overall decline in oil revenues.
Natural gas production and revenue for the nine-month period ending September
30, 1997 were 9.39 billion cubic feet and $23.0 million, respectively,
increasing from 4.78 billion cubic feet and gas revenues of $10.4 million in the
first nine months of 1996. The average sales price for natural gas in the first
nine months in 1997 was $2.45 per Mcf, a $0.27 per Mcf increase over the same
period in 1996. The combination of increased prices and production volumes
generated the 120% increase in total gas revenues.

LEASE OPERATING EXPENSES
Lease operating expenses, excluding severance taxes, for the first nine months
of 1997 increased by 24% to $5.2 million from $4.2 million for the 1996
comparable period. This increase is primarily the result of expenses associated
with the new producing properties. Severance taxes decreased by 29% to $1.1
million during the first nine months of 1997 from $1.5 million for the same
period in 1996 as a result of production declines in the Company's onshore
properties, property sales and a significantly higher portion of the Company's
production coming from wells on federal offshore leases, not subject to
severance taxes.
DEPRECIATION, DEPLETION AND AMORTIZATION
Depreciation, depletion and amortization for the first nine months of 1997 was
$11.3 million, or $0.98 per Mcf equivalent. For the same period in 1996, the
total was $7.7 million and $1.03 per Mcf equivalent.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE
During the first nine months of 1997, general and administrative expenses
increased by 39% to $3.3 million compared to $2.4 million for the nine-month
period in 1996. Increased compensation expense related to stock plans and a
reduction in management fees as a result of property sales, combined to produce
this overall increase.
INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expense during the first three quarters of 1997 was $945,000 compared
to $184,000 for the first three quarters of 1996 as a result of the increase in
the Company's long-term debt.
