Company Profile: Mexco Energy Corporation (MEXC) Mexco Energy Corporation is an independent oil and gas company engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas properties located in the United States. Its objective is to acquire and develop primarily gas properties with potential for long-lived production. It has set standards at a very high level with the emphasis on quality rather than quantity.
Mexco has experienced a stable growth in both gas production and gas reserves over the last five years, excluding the gas production from 2000 - 2001, which declined by 7%, mainly as a result of overproducing in a field in 2000 to realize additional cash due to higher than normal gas prices. The Company seeks to maintain a favorable debt to equity ratio. The Company incurred debt in 1997 to purchase all of the outstanding common stock of Forman Energy Corporation. During the years 1998 and 1999 the Company participated in the drilling of several new wells and became more aggressive in both acquisition and development. The Company has a revolving $5 million credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A., and as of September 30, 2001, the balance outstanding under this agreement was $1 million. The Company has assembled an experienced team of geologists, engineers, landmen, and accountants to evaluate any prospect or acquisition the Company may be considering. It is the goal of the Company to increase production and reserves at a cost that produces the greatest returns on investment and with potential for long-lived production. The Company's average profit percentage on revenues as of March 31, 2001 was 50%. In addition, Mexco has maintained a favorable return on average stockholders equity. As of March 31, 2001 it had a 47% return on average stockholders equity. |
