NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
The consolidated balance sheet as of November 30, 1995 and
August 31, 1995, the consolidated statements of operations for
the three and three months ended November 30, 1995 and November
30, 1994 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the
three months ended November 30, 1995 and November 30, 1994, have
been prepared by the Company, without an audit. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial
position, results of operations and cash flows at November 30,
1995 and for all periods presented have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.
It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-
KSB. The results of operations for interim periods presented are
not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full
year.
NOTE 2 - NOTE RECEIVABLE
In 1995, the Company extended short-term credit to the
Rangeview Metropolitan District. The loan permits borrowings up
to $150,000, is unsecured, bears interest based on the prevailing
prime rate plus 2% and, matures on December 31, 1995.
NOTE 3 - CONTINGENCY
In October 1994, the Company joined in a lawsuit initiated by
others including the Rangeview Metropolitan District (the
"District"), brought in the District Court of the City and County
of Denver, Colorado, against the Colorado State Board of Land
Commissioners (the "Board") seeking a declaratory judgment
affirming that the lease, as amended, (the "Lease"), between the
Board and the District is valid and enforceable. Under the Lease,
the Board leased the development rights to ground water
underlying certain lands controlled by the Board, to the current
lessee, the District. The Company has an interest in such water
by reason of agreements entered into between the District and
other parties.
On March 1, 1995, a counterclaim was filed by the Board against
the District, the Company and other plaintiffs, in which the
Board asserts that the Lease is void because the original lessee
breached his fiduciary duty to the Board and that successive
lessees have breached the Lease. The Board also claims damages
of unspecified amounts against the plaintiffs, including the
Company, because of alleged wrongs done in connection with the
Lease and subsequent transactions.
Based on ongoing settlement discussions, management believes
that the Rangeview litigation will be settled on terms acceptable
to the Company during fiscal year 1996. However, if the Board
were to change its current position on settling the matter and
were to prosecute and prevail on its claims that the Lease is
void or unenforceable, that would have an effect on the Company's
contractual rights under its Water Commercialization Agreement
(the "WCA") related to the water covered by the Lease and would
have a materially adverse effect on the Company.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Results of Operations
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended
November 30, 1995 were approximately $14,000 higher than for the
period ended November 30, 1994, primarily because of and increase
in professional fees expense. Interest expense decreased for the
three months ended November 30, 1995 by approximately $5,700
compared to the period ended November 30, 1994 primarily because
of a lower average outstanding balance of notes payable in the
first quarter of fiscal 1996 compared to the same period in
fiscal 1995. Net loss for the three months ended November 30,
1995 increased approximately $20,900 compared to the three months
ended November 30, 1994 primarily because the company did not
expercise its option to purchase certain water rights which
expired in November 1995.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At November 30, 1995, current assets exceed current liabilities
by approximately $654,675 and, the Company had cash and cash
equivalents of $698,735.
During 1993, a judgment in the amount of $214,000 was awarded
to a broker pursuant to a complaint filed against the Company in
October of 1991. The Company reached a settlement agreement with
the broker which involved the payment of $60,000 and $154,000
plus 8% interest due on or before October 1, 1995. The note is
currently in default.
The Company is aggressively pursuing the sale and development
of its water rights. The Company cannot provide any assurances
that it will be able to sell its water rights. In the event a
sale of the Company's water rights is not forthcoming and the
Company is not able to generate revenues from the sale or
development of its technology, the Company may sell additional
portions of the Company's profit interest pursuant to the
WCA, incur short or long-term debt obligations or seek to sell
additional shares of Common Stock, Preferred Stock or stock
purchase warrants as deemed necessary by the Company to generate
operating capital.
Development of any of the water rights that the Company has, or
is seeking to acquire, will require substantial capital
investment by the Company. Any such additional capital for the
development of the water rights is anticipated to be financed
through the sale of water taps and water delivery charges to a
city or municipality. A water tap charge refers to a charge
imposed by a municipality to permit a water user to access a
water delivery system (i.e. a single-family home's tap into the
municipal water system), and a water delivery charge refers to a
water user's monthly water bill generally based on a per 1,000
gallons of water consumed.
