</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Approach Resources Inc. (&#147;ARI&#148;) is a Delaware corporation formed September&nbsp;13, 2002. ARI has three
wholly-owned subsidiaries. In November&nbsp;2004, Approach Oil &#038; Gas Inc. (&#147;AOG&#148;) was formed. AOG has
four wholly-owned subsidiaries. Collectively, ARI and AOG are referred to as &#147;we,&#148; &#147;our,&#148;
&#147;Approach&#148; or &#147;the Company.&#148; Together, ARI, AOG and their subsidiaries are engaged in the
exploration, development, exploitation, production and acquisition of unconventional natural gas
and oil properties.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Immediately prior to the closing of the initial public offering of its common stock (&#147;IPO&#148;) on
November&nbsp;14, 2007, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of AOG. The
stockholders of AOG received an aggregate of 989,157 shares of Company common stock.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">On November&nbsp;7, 2007, the Company&#146;s board of directors approved a three-for-one stock split in the
form of a stock dividend on the issued and outstanding shares of the Company&#146;s common stock, which
became effective at the completion of the Company&#146;s IPO.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">All common shares and per share amounts in the accompanying combined financial statements and notes
to combined financial statements have been adjusted for all periods to give effect to the stock
split and the acquisition of AOG.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The interim combined financial statements of the Company are unaudited and contain all adjustments
(consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair statement of the results
for the interim periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
results to be expected for a full year or for previously reported periods due in part, but not
limited to, the volatility in prices for crude oil and natural gas, future commodity prices for
commodity derivative contracts, interest rates, estimates of reserves, drilling risks, geological
risks, transportation restrictions, the timing of acquisitions, product demand, market competition
and interruptions of production. You should read these combined interim financial statements in
conjunction with the audited combined financial statements and notes thereto included in our
Prospectus dated November&nbsp;7, 2007 and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November
8, 2007.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The accompanying combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include the accounts of ARI and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries and AOG and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and
transactions are eliminated. In preparing the accompanying financial statements, management has
made certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the financial statements and
disclosures of contingencies. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Significant
assumptions are required in the valuation of proved oil and natural gas reserves, which may affect
the amount at which oil and natural gas properties are recorded. It is at least reasonably possible
these estimates could be revised in the near term, and these revisions could be material.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>New accounting pronouncements</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In September&nbsp;2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;157, Fair Value Measurements
(&#147;SFAS 157&#148;), was issued. SFAS 157 provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and
liabilities. It applies whenever other standards require or permit assets or liabilities to be
measured at fair value, but it does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. The
provisions of SFAS 157 are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning
after November&nbsp;15, 2007. The effect of adopting SFAS 157 has not been determined, but it is not
expected to have a significant effect on our reported financial position or earnings.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In February&nbsp;2007, SFAS No.&nbsp;159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
Liabilities &#151; Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;115 (&#147;SFAS 159&#148;), was issued. SFAS 159
permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair
value. The fair value option established by SFAS 159 permits all entities to choose to measure
eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. Unrealized gains and losses on items for
which the fair value option has been elected are to be recognized in earnings at each subsequent
reporting date. SFAS 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning
after November&nbsp;15, 2007. The effect of adopting SFAS 159 has not been determined, but it is not
expected to have a significant effect on our reported financial position or earnings.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In July&nbsp;2006, FASB Interpretation No.&nbsp;48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes &#151; an
Interpretation of FASB Statement No.&nbsp;109 (&#147;FIN 48&#148;), was issued. FIN 48 clarifies financial
statement recognition and disclosure requirements for uncertain tax positions taken or expected to
be taken in a tax return. Financial statement recognition of the tax position is dependent on an
assessment of a 50% or greater likelihood that the tax position will be sustained upon examination,
based on the technical merits of the position. We adopted FIN 48 on January&nbsp;1, 2007, and it did
not have an impact on our reported financial position or earnings.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We report basic earnings (loss)&nbsp;per common share, which excludes the effect of potentially dilutive
securities, and diluted earnings (loss)&nbsp;per common share, which includes the effect of all
potentially dilutive securities unless their impact is anti-dilutive. The following are
reconciliations of the numerators and denominators of our basic and diluted earnings per share:

$570,474 were repaid in exchange for 253,650 shares of common stock held by management, based on
the fair value of ARI common shares of $16.50 per share at that date. The notes provided for

The notes were collateralized by the underlying common stock purchased and are reported in the

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We have a
revolving loan agreement with The Frost National Bank (the &#147;Agreement&#148;), which provides a borrowing
base determined by the bank based on oil and gas reserve values. The bank determines our borrowing
base semi-annually on or before each March 1 and September 1 based on our oil and gas reserves. We
or the bank can each request one additional borrowing base redetermination each calendar year. In
February&nbsp;2007, the line of credit was raised to $100&nbsp;million and the borrowing base was increased
to $75&nbsp;million. In June&nbsp;2007, the maturity date of the Agreement was extended to July&nbsp;2010. The
borrowings bear interest based on the bank&#146;s prime rate, or the sum of the LIBOR plus an applicable
margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.00% based on the borrowings outstanding compared to the borrowing
base. The interest rate applicable to our outstanding borrowings was approximately 7.75% as of
December&nbsp;31, 2006 and 7.39% as of September&nbsp;30, 2007. Principal payments are not required until the
final maturity date of the agreement, at which time any outstanding loan balances shall be due and
payable in full. In addition, the Agreement requires payment of a quarterly fee equal to three
eighths of one percent (0.375%) of the unused portion of the borrowing base. The borrowings are
collateralized by substantially all of our oil and gas properties. The Agreement contains various
covenants, the most restrictive of which requires us to maintain a modified current ratio of at
least one. The modified current ratio represents the quotient of our current assets, less any
unrealized gains on commodity derivatives plus amounts available under the Agreement divided by our
current liabilities less unrealized losses on commodity derivatives. We were in compliance with the
covenants at December&nbsp;31, 2006 and September&nbsp;30, 2007.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We also have outstanding unused letters of credit under the Agreement totaling $3&nbsp;million at
September&nbsp;30, 2007, which reduce amounts available for borrowing under the Agreement.

February&nbsp;21, 2008 (the &#147;Initial Vesting Date&#148;), and one-third on each of the two following
anniversaries of the Initial Vesting Date. The grant-date fair value of the restricted shares was
determined by the management based upon an analysis of management&#146;s estimates of the equity value
of the Company. These estimates of equity value were based on an analysis of estimated cash flow

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In June&nbsp;2007, the board of directors and stockholders approved the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (&#147;the
2007 Plan&#148;). Under the 2007 Plan, we may grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted
stock units, performance awards, unrestricted stock awards and other incentive awards. The 2007
Plan reserves 10&nbsp;percent of our outstanding common shares as adjusted each year, plus shares of
common stock that were available for grant of awards under our prior plan. Awards of any stock
options are to be priced at not less than the fair market value at the date of the grant. The
vesting period of any stock option award is to be determined by the board at the time of the grant.
The term of each stock option is to be fixed at the time of grant and may not exceed 10&nbsp;years. In
June&nbsp;2007, our board of directors authorized the grant of a total of 300,000 shares of common stock
to our named executive officers and a member of our technical team. In October, 2007, an additional
22,500 share grant was approved by our board to one of our executive officers. In addition, our
board of directors authorized the grant of options to purchase 225,000 shares of common stock to
key employees. These grants became effective on November&nbsp;7, 2007 in connection with the execution
and delivery of the underwriting agreement relating to our IPO. The exercise price for the
authorized stock options will be the initial public offering price of our common stock ($12.00 per
share). In addition, on November&nbsp;27, 2007, the compensation committee of our board authorized the
grant of options to purchase 15,000 shares of common stock to a key employee at an exercise price
equal to the closing price of our common stock on November&nbsp;27, 2007 ($12.63 per share). At
September&nbsp;30, 2007, no awards had been made under the 2007 Plan.

These agreements are automatically renewed for successive terms of one year unless employment is
terminated at the end of the term by written notice given to the employee not less than 60&nbsp;days

interest at a rate of 7.00% per annum and had a maturity date of June&nbsp;25, 2010, at which time all
principal and interest would have been due. These notes were initially convertible at the election

number of shares of ARI common stock issued upon the automatic conversion of these notes was equal
to the quotient obtained by dividing (a)&nbsp;the outstanding principal and accrued interest on each
respective note by (b)&nbsp;the IPO price per share, less any underwriting discount per share for the
shares of ARI common stock that were issued in our IPO. The shares of our common stock issued to
Yorktown Energy Partners VII, L.P. and Lubar Equity Fund, LLC upon such automatic conversion are
entitled to the same registration rights as those provided to certain holders of our common stock
in connection with the contribution agreement. The total principal and interest owed under these
notes as of September&nbsp;30, 2007 was $20.4&nbsp;million, consisting of $10.2&nbsp;million owed to each of
Yorktown Energy Partners VII, L.P. and Lubar Equity Fund, LLC. Yorktown Energy Partners VII, L.P.
is an affiliate of Yorktown Partners LLC, which has one representative, Bryan H. Lawrence, who
serves as a member of our board of directors. Lubar Equity Fund, LLC is an affiliate of Sheldon B.
Lubar, who serves as a member of our board of directors.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The automatic conversion of the notes into shares of ARI common stock upon the closing of our IPO
constituted a contingent beneficial conversion feature because the price per share into which these
notes were convertible is less than the price paid by other parties acquiring ARI common
stock. Immediately upon the closing of our IPO, we were required to measure the intrinsic value of
the beneficial conversion feature and record such value as a charge to interest expense. The value
of the beneficial conversion feature, and therefore the amount of interest expense, that would have
been recognized if the notes were converted on September&nbsp;30, 2007, amounted to $1.5&nbsp;million.

in exchange for their respective contributions. Neo Canyon received an aggregate of 4,239,243
shares of Company common stock, of which 2,061,290 shares were offered in the IPO, 156,805 shares
were subject to the over-allotment option granted to the underwriters and 2,021,148 shares were

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Approach Resources Inc. (&#147;ARI&#148;) is a Delaware corporation formed September&nbsp;13, 2002. ARI has three
wholly-owned subsidiaries. In November&nbsp;2004, Approach Oil &#038; Gas Inc. (&#147;AOG&#148;) was formed. AOG has
four wholly-owned subsidiaries. Collectively, ARI and AOG are referred to as &#147;we,&#148; &#147;our,&#148;
&#147;Approach&#148; or &#147;the Company.&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We are an independent energy company engaged in the exploration, development, exploitation,
production and acquisition of unconventional oil and gas properties onshore in the United States
and Western Canada. We are focusing our growth efforts primarily on finding and developing natural
gas reserves in known tight gas sands and shale areas and have assembled leasehold interests
aggregating approximately 277,100 gross (189,400 net) acres. We expect to leverage our management
team&#146;s proven track record of finding and exploiting unconventional reservoirs through application
of advanced completion, fracturing and drilling techniques. As the operator of substantially all of
our proved reserves, we have a high degree of control over capital expenditures and other operating
matters.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We currently operate in five areas: West Texas (Wolfcamp, Canyon Sands and Ellenburger), East Texas
(Cotton Valley Sands, Bossier and Cotton Valley Lime), Northern New Mexico (Mancos Shale), Western
Kentucky (New Albany Shale) and Western Canada (Triassic Shale and tight gas sands). As of December
31, 2006, all of our proved reserves and production were located in our West Texas operating area
and substantially all of those reserves and production were located in the Ozona Northeast field.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our financial results depend upon many factors, particularly the price of oil and gas. Commodity
prices are affected by changes in market demand, which is impacted by overall economic activity,
weather, pipeline capacity constraints, inventory storage levels, gas price differentials and other
factors. As a result, we cannot accurately predict future oil and gas prices, and therefore, we
cannot determine what effect increases or decreases will have on our capital program, production
volumes and future revenues. In addition to production volumes and commodity prices, finding and
developing sufficient amounts of oil and gas reserves at economical costs are critical to our
long-term success. Future finding and development costs are subject to changes in the industry,
including the costs of acquiring, drilling and completing our projects.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Higher oil and gas prices have led to higher demand for drilling rigs, operating personnel and
field supplies and services and have caused increases in the costs of those goods and services. To
date, the higher sales prices have more than offset the higher drilling and operating costs. Given
the inherent volatility of gas prices, which are influenced by many factors beyond our control, we
plan our activities and budget based on conservative sales price assumptions, which generally are
lower than the average sales prices received. We focus our efforts on increasing gas reserves and
production while controlling costs at a level that is appropriate for long-term operations. Our
future cash flow from operations will depend on our ability to manage our overall cost structure.

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Like all oil and gas production companies, we face the challenge of natural production declines.
Oil and gas production from a given well naturally decreases over time. Additionally, our reserves
have a rapid initial decline. We will attempt to overcome this natural decline by drilling to
develop and identify additional reserves and by acquisitions. Our future growth will depend upon
our ability to continue to add oil and gas reserves in excess of production at a reasonable cost.
We will maintain our focus on the costs of adding reserves through drilling and acquisitions as
well as the costs necessary to produce such reserves.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We also face the challenge of financing future acquisitions. After completion of our initial public
offering of our common stock (&#147;IPO&#148;) as more fully described below, we repaid all amounts

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Contribution Agreement. </I>Immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, the Company acquired all of
the outstanding capital stock of AOG and acquired the 30% working interest in the Ozona Northeast
field that the Company did not already own from Neo Canyon Exploration, L.P. (&#147;Neo Canyon&#148; or the
&#147;Selling Stockholder&#148;). Upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by the contribution
agreement, Neo Canyon and each of the stockholders of AOG received shares of Company common stock
in exchange for their respective contributions. Neo Canyon received an aggregate of 4,239,243

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><I>Three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 compared to three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006</I>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Oil and gas sales</I>. Oil and gas sales decreased $2.1&nbsp;million, or 20.2%, for the three months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2007 to $8.3&nbsp;million from $10.4&nbsp;million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30,
2006. The decrease in gas sales principally resulted from the natural decline in production of our
tight gas sands in the Ozona Northeast field. Further, we had four rigs drilling in the second half
of 2005 and the first half of 2006, which significantly increased production in the three months of
2006 from new wells placed in production compared to the use of only one rig in the latter part of
2006 and the first half of 2007. The average price per Mcfe we received for our production remained
relatively unchanged as reflected in the table above. Gas sales represented 86.8% of the total oil
and gas sales for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 compared to 90.1% for the three months
ended September&nbsp;30, 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Commodity derivative activities</I>. Realized gains from our commodity derivative activity increased
our earnings $1.1&nbsp;million for both the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 and 2006. Realized
gains are derived from the relative movement of the NYMEX gas prices in relation to the fixed
notional pricing for the respective time periods.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Lease operating expense</I>. Our lease operating expenses decreased $62,000, or 7.5%, for the three
months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 to $760,000 ($0.62 per Mcfe) from $822,000 ($0.52 per Mcfe) for the
three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006. The primary factor in the slight decrease in lease operating
expense was the release in mid-2006 of one of our seven rented compressors.

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">



<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Severance and production taxes</I>. Our production taxes decreased $140,000, or 26%, for the three
months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 to $400,000 from $540,000 for the three months ended September&nbsp;30,
2006. The decrease in production taxes was a function of the reduced oil and gas sales in 2007.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Exploration</I>. We recorded no dry hole costs for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 as
compared to $572,000 for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006. Exploration expense in 2006
resulted primarily from two dry holes drilled on our Pecos County project, which was abandoned in
the fourth quarter of 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>General and administrative</I>. Our general and administrative expenses increased $875,000 or 174.8%,
to $1.4&nbsp;million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 from $500,000 for the three months
ended September&nbsp;30, 2006. The increase in general and administrative expense was principally due to
bonus payments made in the third quarter of 2007 after filing of our initial registration statement
and the increased staffing costs in 2007.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Depletion, depreciation and amortization (DD&#038;A)</I>. Our DD&#038;A expense decreased $687,000, or 18.1%, to
$3.1&nbsp;million for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 from $3.8&nbsp;million for the three months
ended September&nbsp;30, 2006. Our DD&#038;A expense per Mcfe produced increased by $0.11, or 4.6%, to $2.52
per Mcfe for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, as compared to $2.41 per Mcfe for the three
months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006. The decrease in DD&#038;A was primarily attributable to decreased
production, which was slightly offset by the higher expense per Mcfe consistent with increased
capital costs.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Interest income (expense), net. </I>Our interest expense increased $49,000, or 4.7%, to $1.1&nbsp;million
for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 from $1.1&nbsp;million for the three months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2006. This increase was a function of increased borrowings between the two periods to
fund our development of the Ozona Northeast field, partially offset by lower interest rates in the
2007 period.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Income taxes</I>. Our provision for income taxes decreased $1.6&nbsp;million, or 54.2%, to $1.3&nbsp;million for
the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, from a provision of $2.9&nbsp;million for the three months
ended September&nbsp;30, 2006. The decrease in income tax expense is consistent with the decrease in our
income before income taxes. Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended September&nbsp;30,
2006 amounted to 36.1% compared with 38.5% for the three months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. The
increase in the effective rate results primarily from changes in the valuation allowance provided
against net operating loss carryovers for AOG We do not recognize a tax benefit for the net
operating loss carryovers of AOG based on our assessment of the likelihood of AOG being able to
utilize those carryovers to reduce future taxable income. Subsequent to the combination of AOG and
ARI, the net operating loss carryovers of AOG will be available to offset our future taxable
income, subject to certain limitations.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><I>Nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 compared to nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006</I>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Oil and gas sales</I>. Oil and gas sales decreased $9.4&nbsp;million, or 25.6%, for the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2007 to $27.4&nbsp;million from $36.8&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30,
2006. The decrease in gas sales principally resulted from the natural decline in production of our
tight gas sands in the Ozona Northeast field. Further, we had four rigs drilling in the second half
of 2005 and the first half of 2006, which significantly increased production in the first nine
months of 2006 from new wells placed in production compared to the use of only one rig in the
latter part of 2006 and early 2007. The average price per Mcfe we received for our production
remained relatively unchanged as reflected in the table above. Gas sales represented 88.1% of the
total oil and gas sales for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 compared to 89.8% for the nine
months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Commodity derivative activities</I>. Realized gains from our commodity derivative activity increased
our earnings $3.3&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. In comparison, our
commodity derivative activity increased our earnings $4.2&nbsp;million for the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2006. Realized gains are derived from the relative movement of the NYMEX gas prices
in relation to the fixed notional pricing for the respective time periods.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Lease operating expense</I>. Our lease operating expenses decreased $31,000, or 1.1%, for the nine
months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 to $2.8&nbsp;million ($0.72 per Mcfe) from 2.8&nbsp;million ($0.54 per Mcfe)
for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006. The primary factor in the slight decrease in lease
operating expense was the release in mid-2006 of one of our seven rented compressors and an amine
unit as partially offset by higher estimated ad valorem tax in the 2007 period.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Severance and production taxes</I>. Our production taxes decreased $233,000, or 16.9%, for the nine
months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 to $1.1&nbsp;million from $1.4&nbsp;million for the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2006. The decrease in production taxes was a function of the reduced oil and gas
sales in 2007, offset partly by the timing of severance tax refunds in the 2006 period.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Exploration</I>. Our dry hole costs associated with exploratory drilling decreased $931,000 to $633,000
for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 from $1.6&nbsp;million for the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2006. The 2007 dry hole costs resulted from a mechanical failure in the drilling of a
test well in our Boomerang prospect. Exploration expense in 2006 resulted primarily from two dry
holes drilled on our Pecos County project, which we abandoned in the fourth quarter of 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>General and administrative</I>. Our general and administrative expenses increased $2.4&nbsp;million or
136.7%, to $4.1&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 from $1.7&nbsp;million for the nine
months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006. The increase in general and administrative expense was principally
due to bonus payments made in the first nine months of 2007 to cover tax liabilities incurred by
management in connection with the repayment of management notes, bonus payments made upon filing of
our initial registration statement in the third quarter and increased staffing in the 2007 period.
Additionally, the 2007 period includes a severance obligation of $350,000 related to a former
employee.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Depletion, depreciation and amortization (DD&#038;A)</I>. Our DD&#038;A expense decreased $1.6&nbsp;million, or 14.4%,
to $9.2&nbsp;million for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 from $10.8&nbsp;million for the nine months
ended September&nbsp;30, 2006. Our DD&#038;A expense per Mcfe produced increased by $0.33, or 15.9%, to $2.40
per Mcfe for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, as compared to $2.07 per Mcfe for the nine
months ended September&nbsp;30, 2006. The decrease in DD&#038;A was primarily attributable to decreased
production, which was slightly offset by the higher expense per Mcfe consistent with increased
capital costs.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Interest income (expense), net</I>. Our interest expense increased $295,000, or 10.7%, to $3.1&nbsp;million
for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007 from $2.8&nbsp;million for the nine months ended
September&nbsp;30, 2006. This increase was a function of increased borrowings between the two periods to
fund our development of the Ozona Northeast field.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Income taxes</I>. Our provision for income taxes decreased $7.2&nbsp;million, or 69.6%, to $3.1&nbsp;million for
the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, from a provision of $10.3&nbsp;million for the nine months
ended September&nbsp;30, 2006. The decrease in income tax expense is consistent with the decrease in our
income before income taxes. Our effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30,
2006 amounted to 35.4% compared with 41% for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007. The increase
in the effective rate results primarily from changes in the valuation allowance provided against
net operating loss carryovers for AOG We do not recognize a tax benefit for the net operating loss
carryovers of AOG

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Prior to the completion of our IPO, cash generated from operations, borrowings under our existing
credit facilities and funds from partner contributions have been our primary sources of liquidity.
Following completion of our IPO, we will rely on cash generated from operations, future public
equity and debt offerings and borrowings under our revolving credit facility with The Frost
National Bank to satisfy our liquidity needs. Our ability to fund planned capital
expenditures and to make acquisitions will depend upon our future operating performance, and more
broadly, on the availability of equity and debt financing, which will be affected by prevailing
economic conditions in our industry and financial, business and other factors, some of which are
beyond our control.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our cash flow from operations is driven by commodity prices and production volumes. Prices for oil
and gas are driven by seasonal influences of weather, national and international economic and
political environments and, increasingly, from heightened demand for hydrocarbons from emerging
nations, particularly China and India. Our working capital is significantly influenced by changes
in commodity prices and significant declines in prices could decrease our exploration and
development expenditures.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">For the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2007, our cash flow from operations was used for drilling
activities. The $20.3&nbsp;million in cash flow generated in the first nine months of 2007 decreased
$6.3&nbsp;million from the first nine months of 2006 due mostly to lower oil and gas sales and higher
general and administrative expenses in the 2007 period.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Of the cash flows used in investing activities in the first nine months of 2007, $18.6&nbsp;million was
for the continued development of the Ozona Northeast field, $2.8&nbsp;million for the drilling of wells
in Cinco Terry, $2.4&nbsp;million for development of our North Bald Prairie field, $1.1&nbsp;million for the
drilling of the test wells in our Boomerang prospect, $2.4&nbsp;million for the acquisition of the El
Vado East leasehold and $4.9&nbsp;million for our Canadian project including investment in a
Canadian-based private exploration company, leasehold acquisition and drilling costs. For the
comparable period of 2006, $44.1&nbsp;million was for the drilling of Ozona Northeast wells, $3.5
million was for the acquisition of the Boomerang leasehold and $2.2&nbsp;million was used for acreage
cost and the drilling of Cinco Terry wells.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We have established an exploratory and development budget of $48.6&nbsp;million and $64.3&nbsp;million for
2007 and 2008, respectively, after the completion of the acquisition of the Neo Canyon interest.
Our budgets are established based on expected volumes to be produced and commodity prices.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In February&nbsp;2007, we entered into an amended and restated $100&nbsp;million revolving credit facility
with The Frost National Bank. In June&nbsp;2007, we amended our credit facility agreement to extend the
due date of any balance outstanding at maturity to July&nbsp;2010. As of September&nbsp;30, 2007, we had an
outstanding balance under the credit facility of approximately $53.3&nbsp;million, with a borrowing base
of $75&nbsp;million. The borrowing base is subject to adjustment twice each year. The assessment by the
bank petroleum engineers is based on their evaluation of the future cash flows from proved oil and
gas reserves using the bank&#146;s pricing parameters.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our goal is to actively manage our borrowings to help us maintain the flexibility to expand and
invest, and to avoid the problems associated with highly leveraged companies of large interest
costs and possible debt reductions restricting ongoing operations.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We believe that cash flow from operations and borrowings under our revolving credit facility will
finance substantially all of our anticipated drilling, exploration and capital needs through 2008.
We will also use our revolving credit facility for possible acquisitions, temporary working capital
needs and any expansion of our drilling program through 2008.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The following table summarizes information regarding our estimated 2007 and 2008 capital
expenditures. The 2007 and 2008 estimates give effect to the acquisition of the Neo Canyon interest
in combination with the interest of ARI and AOG as of November&nbsp;14, 2007. We will be required to
meet our needs from our internally generated cash flow, debt financings, equity financings and
borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The estimated capital expenditures are subject to
change depending upon a number of factors, including the results of our development and exploration
efforts, the availability of sufficient capital resources to us and other participants for drilling
prospects, economic and industry conditions at the time of drilling, including prevailing and
anticipated prices for oil and gas and the availability of drilling rigs and crews, our financial
results and the availability of leases on reasonable terms and our ability to obtain permits for
the drilling locations.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In February&nbsp;2007, we entered into an amended and restated $100&nbsp;million revolving credit facility
with The Frost National Bank. In June&nbsp;2007, we amended our credit facility agreement to extend the
due date of any balance outstanding at maturity to July&nbsp;2010. In July&nbsp;2007, we amended the credit
facility agreement to allow the bank to issue letters of credit for the account of AOG. In
September&nbsp;2007, we amended our credit facility agreement to clarify the annual date for delivery of
our year-end reserve report from our independent engineering firm. The availability of funds under
our revolving credit facility is subject to a borrowing base which was initially set at, and
currently is, $75&nbsp;million. The borrowing base will be redetermined every six months or, upon the
election by us or the bank, one additional time each calendar year.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Our revolving credit facility provides for interest on outstanding amounts to accrue at a rate
calculated, at our option, at either (i)&nbsp;the base rate, which is the bank&#146;s prime rate, or (ii)&nbsp;the
sum of the LIBOR plus a margin which ranges from 1.25% to 2.0% per annum, as applicable, as amounts
outstanding under our revolving credit facility increase as a percentage of the borrowing base. In
addition, we pay an annual commitment fee of 0.375% of non-utilized borrowings available under our
revolving credit facility.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We are subject to a financial covenant requiring maintenance of a minimum modified ratio of current
assets to current liabilities. In addition, we are subject to covenants restricting cash dividends
and other restricted payments, transactions with affiliates, incurrence of other debt,
consolidations and mergers, the level of operating leases, assets sales, investments in other
entities and liens on properties.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Loans under our revolving credit facility are secured by first priority liens on substantially all
of our West Texas assets including equity interests in our subsidiaries. All outstanding amounts
under our revolving credit facility are due and payable in July&nbsp;2010.

facility was $47.6&nbsp;million and $53.3&nbsp;million, respectively. After the completion of the IPO, we

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">On November&nbsp;14, 2007, we completed the IPO of our common stock pursuant to our registration
statement on Form S-1 (File 333-144512) declared effective by the SEC on November&nbsp;8, 2007. The
underwriters for the offering were J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC,
KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. and Tudor, Pickering, Holt&nbsp;&#038; Co. Securities, Inc. Pursuant to the
registration statement, we registered the offer and sale of 8,816,667 shares of our $0.01 par value
common stock, which included 2,061,290 shares sold by the Selling Stockholder and 1,150,000 shares
subject to an option granted to the underwriters by us to cover over-allotments. The underwriters
exercised their over-allotment option on November&nbsp;14, 2007. The sale of the shares in our IPO
closed on November&nbsp;14, 2007 and the sale of the shares covered by the over-allotment option closed
on November&nbsp;16, 2007. Our IPO terminated upon completion of the closing.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The gross proceeds of our IPO, including the gross proceeds from over-allotment option, based on
the IPO price of $12.00 per share, were approximately $81.1&nbsp;million, which resulted in net proceeds
to the Company of $73.6&nbsp;million after deducting underwriter discounts and commissions of
approximately $5.5&nbsp;million and the net proceeds to the Selling Stockholder of approximately
$23.0&nbsp;million. We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the Selling
Stockholder. We also paid for legal fees incurred by the Selling Stockholder. Other than for such
fees, no fees or expenses have been paid, directly or indirectly, to any officer, director or 10%
stockholder or other affiliate. The net proceeds from our IPO were used to (i)&nbsp;repay a portion of
our revolving credit facility in November&nbsp;2007 totaling $51.1&nbsp;million and (ii)&nbsp;repurchase 2,021,148
shares of our common stock held by the Selling Stockholder for approximately $22.5&nbsp;million.

General Corporation Law. Notice of any application for indemnification pursuant to this Section&nbsp;2

or certificates shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar before such
certificate is issued by the Corporation, such certificate may nevertheless be issued by the
Corporation with the same effect as if such person were such officer, transfer agent or registrar
at the date of issue. The stock certificates shall be consecutively numbered and shall be entered
in the books of the Corporation as they are issued and shall exhibit the holder&#146;s name and number

such shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be transferable only on the books of the

representatives upon surrender and cancellation of certificates for a like number of shares. Upon
surrender to the Corporation or a transfer agent of the Corporation of such certificate for shares
duly endorsed or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment or authority to transfer,
it shall be the duty of the Corporation to issue a new certificate to the person entitled thereto,
cancel the old certificate and record the transaction upon its books. In respect of uncertificated
shares of capital stock, such shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be transferable only
on the books of the Corporation by the holders thereof in person or by their duly authorized
attorneys or legal representatives upon the compliance with such rules and procedures as may be
proscribed by the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the

such share or shares on the part of any other person, whether or not it shall have express or other
notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the laws of the state of incorporation of the
Corporation.

power and authority to make all such rules and regulations as they may deem expedient concerning
the issue, transfer and registration or the replacement of certificates for shares of capital stock
of the Corporation.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Section&nbsp;5. <U>Lost or Destroyed Certificates</U>. The Board of Directors may determine the
conditions upon which the Corporation may issue a new certificate for shares of capital stock in
place of a certificate theretofore issued by it which is alleged to have been lost, stolen or
destroyed and may require the owner of such certificate or such owner&#146;s legal representative to
give bond, with surety sufficient to indemnify the Corporation and each transfer agent and

or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate in the place of the
one so lost, stolen or destroyed.
