     On August 5, 1997 (Merger Date or Acquisition Date), the merger
transactions between Texas Utilities Company (TUC) and ENSERCH Corporation
(ENSERCH or the Corporation) were completed.  All of the common stock of
ENSERCH was converted into common stock of TUC, and ENSERCH became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of TUC.  Immediately prior to ENSERCH's merger with
TUC, Enserch Exploration, Inc. (EEX) and Lone Star Energy Plant Operations,
Inc. (LSEPO), former subsidiaries of the Corporation, were merged to form a
new company (New EEX), and ENSERCH distributed to its common shareholders its
ownership interest in these businesses.

     TUC accounted for its acquisition of ENSERCH as a purchase, and purchase
accounting adjustments, including goodwill, have been pushed down and are
reflected in the financial statements of ENSERCH and its subsidiaries for the
period subsequent to August 5, 1997.  The financial statements of ENSERCH for
the periods ended before August 5, 1997 were prepared using ENSERCH's
historical basis of accounting and are designated as "Predecessor".  The
comparability of the operating results for the Predecessor and the periods
encompassing push down accounting are affected by the purchase accounting
adjustments, including the amortization of goodwill over a period of forty
years.

     The Predecessor financial statements have been restated to reflect EEX
and LSEPO as a discontinued operation.  The historical financial statements of
ENSERCH reflect certain reclassifications made to conform to TUC's
presentation style.  On December 31, 1997, ENSERCH sold, to another subsidiary
of TUC, at net book value, the group of companies which had constituted the
Corporation's power development and international gas distribution
operations.  For financial reporting purposes, the sale was deemed to have
occurred on August 5, 1997.  Accordingly, operating results for periods
following the Merger Date exclude those operations.  Prior periods were not
restated to reflect the sale.

     The fair value of the assets and liabilities of ENSERCH's rate-regulated
natural gas utility business (conducted through its Lone Star Gas Company and
Lone Star Pipeline Company divisions) is considered to be equivalent to the
historical basis of accounting and accordingly, no adjustment has been made to
the carrying value.  The excess of the consideration paid by TUC over the
estimated fair value of the assets and liabilities of ENSERCH at the merger
date was approximately $800 million and  is  reflected as goodwill in the
ENSERCH balance sheet as of December 31, 1997.  The process of determining the
fair value of assets and liabilities at the Merger Date is continuing, and the
final result awaits the resolution of income tax and other contingencies and
finalization of certain estimates.

2.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Basis of Presentation -- The condensed consolidated financial statements
of ENSERCH and its subsidiaries have been prepared on the same basis as those
in the 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K (1997 Form 10-K) and, in the opinion of
ENSERCH, all adjustments (constituting only normal recurring accruals)
necessary to a fair presentation of the results of operation and financial
position have been included therein.  Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

     Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to
conform to current classifications.

     Energy Marketing Activities -- The Corporation, through its energy
marketing subsidiary, Enserch Energy Services, Inc. (EES),  enters into a
variety of transactions, including forward contracts involving physical
delivery of natural gas or electrical power commodities, as well as swaps,
futures, options and other derivative contractual arrangements.  As part of
these business activities, EES offers price risk management services to the
energy sector.  These transactions  are primarily conducted with retail end
users, established energy companies and major financial institutions.  EES
uses the mark-to-market method of valuing and accounting for these
activities.  Under this method, the current market value of EES' energy
portfolio, net of future servicing costs is reflected within the Corporation's
consolidated balance sheets, with resulting unrealized gains and losses, as
"Energy Marketing Risk Management Assets" or "Energy Marketing Risk Management
Liabilities".  The actual timing of cash receipts and payments may however
vary as contracts may be settled at intervals other than their scheduled
maturities.  (See Note 6).

3.COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income," became effective as of the first quarter of 1998.  This
statement requires companies to report and display comprehensive income and
its components (revenues, expenses, gains and losses).  Comprehensive income
includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from
investments by owners and distributions to owners.  For the Corporation,
comprehensive income is the same as net income reported in the consolidated
statement of income.  There are no other items of comprehensive income for the
periods presented.

4.LINES OF CREDIT

     At June 30, 1998, TUC, Texas Utilities Electric Company (a subsidiary of
TUC) (TU Electric) and ENSERCH had joint lines of credit under revolving
credit facility agreements (Credit Agreements) with a group of banking
institutions.  The Credit Agreements have two facilities. Facility A provides
for short-term borrowings aggregating up to $3,600,000,000 outstanding at any
one time at variable interest rates and terminates March 1, 1999.  Facility B
provides for borrowings aggregating up to $1,400,000,000 outstanding at any
one time at variable interest rates and terminates March 2, 2003.  Excluding
$2,800,000,000 which is restricted to TUC's use in financing the acquisition
of a foreign-based entity, the combined borrowings of TUC, TU Electric and
ENSERCH under both facilities are limited to an aggregate of $2,200,000,000
outstanding at any one time, which may be used for working capital and other
general corporate purposes, including commercial paper backup.  ENSERCH's
borrowings under both facilities are limited to an aggregate of up to

                             8
<PAGE>

<PAGE>

$650,000,000 outstanding at any one time.  At June 30, 1998, ENSERCH had
no borrowings outstanding under these facilities.

5.CAPITALIZATION

     Long-Term Debt -- In January 1998, the Corporation issued $125,000,000 of
6.25% Series A Notes due January 1, 2003 (Series A Notes) and $125,000,000 of
Remarketed Reset Notes due January 1, 2008 (Reset Notes).  Net proceeds from
these borrowings were used to refinance or redeem like amounts of higher rate
debt and preferred stock.  On July 1, 1998, the interest rate on the Reset
Notes was reset to a fixed rate of 6.564% to July 1, 2005.

     In March 1998, ENSERCH redeemed the outstanding balance of its 6.375%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures.  Holders of $3,005,000 principal amount
of the debentures elected to convert such debentures into 77,963 shares of TUC
common stock, and the remaining $87,745,000 principal amount was redeemed at
par for cash.

     On July 6, 1998, ENSERCH redeemed at par its $100,000,000 principal
amount 8.875% Senior Notes.

     ENSERCH Obligated, Mandatorily Redeemable, Preferred Securities of
Subsidiary Trust Holding Solely Debentures of ENSERCH -- In July 1998, a
statutory business trust, ENSERCH Capital I, was established as a financing
subsidiary of ENSERCH for the purpose of issuing common and preferred trust
securities, with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per unit, and holding
Junior Subordinated Debentures issued by ENSERCH.  ENSERCH Capital I issued
$150,000,000 of floating rate capital securities.  Distributions on these
capital securities are payable quarterly based on an annual floating rate
determined quarterly with reference to a three-month LIBOR plus a margin of
1.35%.  The debentures held by the trust are its only assets.  The trust
assets are $154,600,000 principal amount of Floating Rate Junior Subordinated
Debentures Series A (Series A Debentures). ENSERCH Capital I will use interest
payments received on the Series A Debentures to make cash distributions on the
capital securities it has issued.  The interest rate on the Series A
Debentures will be set quarterly, based on three-month LIBOR plus 1.35%.  The
initial rate for the period from July 2, 1998 to September 30, 1998 is
7.06875%.  The proceeds were used by ENSERCH for general corporate purposes,
including the acquisition or redemption of outstanding securities of ENSERCH.
The Series A Debentures will mature on July 1, 2028 and ENSERCH has the right
to redeem the debentures in whole or in part on or after July 1, 2003.

     Preferred Stock -- In January  1998, the Corporation redeemed all of the
outstanding shares of its Adjustable Rate Preferred Stock, Series E, at par
value of $1,000 per share, $100,000,000 principal amount, plus accrued and
unpaid dividends of $14.777 per share.

     ENSERCH may issue additional debt and equity securities as needed,
including the possible future sale of up to $100,000,000 aggregate principal
amount of securities currently registered with the SEC for offering pursuant
to Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933.

                             9

6.DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

     Energy Marketing Activities -- EES' energy portfolio is comprised of
forward commitments, futures, swaps,  options  and  other derivative
instruments.  The notional amounts and terms of the portfolio as of June 30,
1998 included financial instruments that provide for fixed price receipts of
2,265 trillion British thermal units equivalent (Tbtue) and fixed price
payments of 2,314 Tbtue, with a maximum term of seven years.  Additionally,
sales and purchase commitments totaling 1,140 Tbtue, with terms extending up
to five years are included in the portfolio as of June 30, 1998.

     Notional amounts reflect the volume of transactions but do not represent
the amounts exchanged by the parties to the financial instruments.Accordingly,
the notional amounts represented above do not necessarily measure EES'
exposure to market or credit risks.  Additionally, the maximum term in years
are not indicative of likely future cash flows as these positions may be
offset in the markets at any time in response to EES' risk management needs.

7.REGULATION AND RATES

     Lone Star Gas Rates -- In August 1996, the Railroad Commission of Texas
(RRC) ordered a general inquiry into the rates and services of Lone Star Gas,
most notably a review of historic gas cost and gas acquisition practices since
the last rate setting.  The inquiry docket was separated into different phases,
all of which are now resolved. Two of the phases, conversion to the National
Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners account numbering system and
unbundling, have been dismissed by the RRC, and one other phase, rate case
expense, has been concluded.  In the phase dealing with historic gas cost and
gas acquisition practices, the RRC issued a final order on June 2, 1998
approving a stipulated settlement of the docket.  Lone Star Gas agreed to
credit residential and commercial customers $18 million to be spread over the
next two heating seasons (November through March).  The earnings of Lone Star
Gas are not affected by the settlement due to previously established reserves.
Lone Star Gas and the intervenors both agreed to withdraw their appeals of
the city gate rate case.  The final order approving the stipulation found that
all gas costs flowed through Lone Star Gas' monthly gas cost adjustment clause
prior to October 31, 1997 were just, reasonable, and necessary.

8.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     Guarantees -- The Corporation and/or its subsidiaries are the guarantor
on various commitments and obligations of others aggregating approximately
$33,300,000 at June 30, 1998.  The Corporation is exposed to loss in the event
of nonperformance by other parties.  However, the Corporation does not
anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT



ENSERCH Corporation:

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of
ENSERCH Corporation and subsidiaries (the Corporation) as of June 30, 1998,
and the related condensed statements of consolidated income for the
three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1998 and the period from the
acquisition date (August 5, 1997) through June 30, 1998 (Successor Company
Operations), the condensed statements of consolidated income for the
three-month, six-month and twelve-month periods ended June 30, 1997 and the
period from July 1, 1997 through the acquisition date (Predecessor Company
Operations) and the consolidated cash flows for the six-month periods ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997.  These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Corporation's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical review
procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for
financial and accounting matters.  It is substantially less in scope than an
audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective
of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements
taken as a whole.  Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to such condensed consolidated financial statements for them to
be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet of the Corporation as of December 31,
1997, and the related consolidated statements of income, cash flows and
common stock equity for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our
report dated February 24, 1998, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those
consolidated financial statements.  In our opinion, the information set forth
in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31,
1997, is fairly stated in all material respects, in relation to the
consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATION


FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

     This report and other presentations made by ENSERCH Corporation (ENSERCH
or the Corporation) and its subsidiaries contain forward-looking statements
within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended.  Although ENSERCH believes that in making any such statement its
expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, any such statement involves
uncertainties and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the factors
contained in the Forward-looking Statements section of Item 7.  Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation in
ENSERCH's 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year 1997 (1997 Form 10-K),
among others, that could cause the actual results of ENSERCH to differ
materially from those projected in such forward-looking statement.

     Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such
statement is made, and ENSERCH undertakes no obligation to update any
forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on
which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated
events.  New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for
ENSERCH to predict all of such factors, nor can it assess the impact of each
such factor or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may
cause results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking
statement.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Merger With TUC and Disposition

     On August 5, 1997 (Merger Date or Acquisition Date), the merger
transactions between Texas Utilities Company (TUC) and ENSERCH Corporation
(ENSERCH or the Corporation) were completed.  All of the common stock of
ENSERCH was converted into common stock of TUC, and ENSERCH became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of TUC.  Immediately prior to ENSERCH's merger with
TUC, Enserch Exploration, Inc. (EEX) and Lone Star Energy Plant Operations,
Inc. (LSEPO), former subsidiaries of the Corporation, were merged to form a
new company (New EEX), and ENSERCH distributed to its common shareholders its
ownership interest in these businesses.

     TUC accounted for its acquisition of ENSERCH as a purchase, and purchase
accounting adjustments, including goodwill, have been pushed down and are
reflected in the financial statements of ENSERCH and its subsidiaries for the
period subsequent to August 5, 1997.  The financial statements of ENSERCH for
the periods ended before August 5, 1997, were prepared using ENSERCH's
historical basis of accounting and are designated as "Predecessor".  The
comparability of the operating results for the Predecessor and the periods
encompassing push down accounting are affected by the purchase accounting
adjustments including the amortization of goodwill over a period of forty
years.

     The Predecessor financial statements have been restated to reflect EEX
and LSEPO as a discontinued operation.  The historical financial statements of
ENSERCH reflect certain reclassifications made to conform to TUC's
presentation style.  On December 31, 1997, ENSERCH sold, to another subsidiary
of TUC, at net book value, the group of companies which had constituted the
Corporation's power development and international gas distribution operations.
For financial reporting purposes, the sale was deemed to have occurred on
August 5, 1997.  Accordingly, operating results for periods following the
Merger Date exclude those operations.  Prior periods were not restated to
reflect the sale.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     For information concerning liquidity and capital resources, see Item 7.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operation in ENSERCH's 1997 Form 10-K.  Results for the three- and six-month
periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of expectations for a
full year's operations because of seasonal and other factors, including
variations in maintenance and other operating expense patterns. No significant
changes or events which might affect the financial condition of the
Corporation have occurred subsequent to year-end other than as disclosed in
other reports of ENSERCH or included herein.

     Continuing operations provided cash of $66 million for operating
activities in the first six months of 1998 compared with $45 million in the
same period of 1997.  Discontinued operations  provided  cash  of $1.5 million
in the 1998 six months and used cash of $31 million in the 1997 period.

     Investing activities required $71 million in the first six months of 1998
versus $77 million in 1997.  Capital spending in the first six months of 1998
was $17 million higher than the first six months of the prior year.  Other
investing activities used cash of $3.9 million in 1998 and $27 million in
1997.

     The capitalization ratios of the Corporation as of June 30, 1998
consisted of approximately 55.8% long-term debt (including amounts due
parent), 4.0% preferred stock and 40.2% common stock equity.

     In January 1998,  ENSERCH issued $125 million of 6.25% Series A Notes due
2003 and $125 million of Remarketed Reset Notes due 2008.  Net proceeds from
these borrowings were used to refinance or redeem like amounts of higher rate
debt and preferred stock.  On July 1, 1998, the interest rate on the Reset
Notes was reset to a fixed rate of 6.564% to July 1, 2005.  In January,
the $100 million principal amount of Series E Adjustable Rate Preferred Stock
was redeemed at 100% of its liquidation price plus accrued and unpaid
dividends.  In March 1998, the Corporation redeemed the outstanding balance of
its 6.375% Convertible Subordinated Debentures.  Holders of the debentures
elected to convert $3.0 million principal amount of such debentures into
77,963 shares of TUC common stock,  and the remaining $87.7 million principal
amount was redeemed at par for cash.  On July 6, 1998, ENSERCH redeemed at par
its $100 million principal amount of 8.875% Senior Notes due 2001.

      In July 1998, a statutory business trust, ENSERCH Capital I, was
established as a financing subsidiary of ENSERCH for the purpose of issuing
common and preferred trust securities with a liquidation preference of $1,000
per unit, and holding Junior Subordinated Debentures, issued by ENSERCH.
ENSERCH Capital I issued $150 million of floating rate capital securities.
Distributions on these capital securities are payable quarterly based on an
annual floating rate determined quarterly with reference to a three-month
LIBOR plus a margin of 1.35%.  The debentures held by the trust are its only
assets.  The trust assets are $154.6 million principal amount of Floating Rate
Junior Subordinated Debentures Series A (Series A Debentures).  ENSERCH
Capital I will use interest payments received on the Series A Debentures to
make cash distributions on the capital securities it has issued.  The interest
rate on the Series A Debentures will be set quarterly, based on three-month
LIBOR plus 1.35%.  The initial rate for the period from July 2, 1998 to
September 30, 1998 is 7.06875%.  The proceeds were used by ENSERCH for general
corporate purposes, including the acquisition or redemption of outstanding
securities of ENSERCH.  The Series A Debentures will mature on July 1, 2028
and ENSERCH has the right to redeem the debentures in whole or in part on or
after July 1, 2003.

     ENSERCH may issue additional debt and equity securities as needed,
including the possible future sale of up to $100 million aggregate principal
amount of securities currently registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) for offering pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act of
1933.

     At June 30, 1998, TUC, Texas Utilities Electric Company, subsidiary of
TUC (TU Electric), and ENSERCH had joint lines of credit under revolving
credit facility agreements (Credit Agreements) with a group of banking
institutions.  The Credit Agreements have two facilities. Facility A provides
for short-term borrowings aggregating up to $3.6 billion outstanding at any
one time at variable interest rates and terminates March 1, 1999.  Facility B
provides for borrowings aggregating up to $1.4 billion outstanding at any one
time at variable interest rates and terminates March 2, 2003.   Excluding $2.8
billion of Facility A which is restricted to use by TUC in financing the
acquisition of The Energy Group PLC, the combined borrowings of TUC, TU
Electric and ENSERCH under both facilities are limited to an aggregate of $2.2
billion outstanding at any one time which may used for working capital and
other general corporate purposes, including commercial paper backup.
ENSERCH's borrowings under both facilities are limited to an aggregate of up
to $650 million outstanding at any one time.  At June 30, 1998, ENSERCH had no
borrowings outstanding under these facilities.

Regulation and Rates

     Lone Star Gas Rates -- In August 1996, the Railroad Commission of Texas
(RRC) ordered a general inquiry into the rates and services of Lone Star Gas,
most notably a review of historic gas cost and gas acquisition practices since
the last rate setting.  The inquiry docket was separated into different phases,
all of which are now resolved. Two of the phases, conversion to the National
Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners account numbering system and
unbundling, have been dismissed by the RRC, and one other phase, rate case
expense, has been concluded.  In the phase dealing with historic gas cost and
gas acquisition practices, the RRC issued a final order on June 2, 1998
approving a stipulated settlement of the docket.  Lone Star Gas agreed to
credit residential and commercial customers $18 million to be spread over the
next two heating seasons (November through March).  The earnings of Lone Star
Gas are not affected by the Settlement due to previously established reserves.
Lone Star Gas and the intervenors both agreed to withdraw their appeals of the
city gate rate case.  The final order approving the stipulation found that all
gas costs flowed through Lone Star Gas' monthly gas cost adjustment clause
prior to October 31, 1997 were just, reasonable, and necessary.

RESULTS OF OPERATION

     For the three-, six- and twelve-month periods ended June 30, 1998,
ENSERCH had losses from continuing operations of $22 million, $4.9 million and
$27 million, respectively compared with losses of $22 million, $3.0 million
and $9.9 million, respectively, for the Corporation and Predecessor, as
applicable,  for the same period of 1997.  The amortization of goodwill
arising from the acquisition by Texas Utilities was $5.0 million for the three
months, $10.0 million the first six months and $18.1 million for the twelve
months ended June 30, 1998.  Income for the 1997 six and twelve month period
was reduced by an $8.6 million pretax, $5.6 million after-tax, provision for a
credit  Lone Star Pipeline Company made voluntarily to its customers.

     Consolidated revenues for the three, six and twelve months ended June 30,
1998 increased 151%, 65% and 62% compared with the same periods for 1997.  The
higher revenues reflect a significant increase in energy marketing revenues in
the second quarter.  Gas purchased for resale increased 211%, 85% and 85% in
the three-, six- and twelve-month 1998 periods, respectively, over the same
periods of 1997, reflecting the increase in energy marketing activity.

                             14
<PAGE>

<PAGE>

     Operating income for the twelve months ended June 30, 1998 was $64.8
million compared to $76.6 million for the 1997 period.

     Consolidated  operating income the for the six months was $33.2 million
in 1998 compared with $35.1 million in 1997.  There was an operating loss from
natural gas gathering and processing operations of $1.9 million for the six
months of 1998 compared with operating income of $6.4 million for the same
period of 1997.  Fluctuations in natural gas liquids (NGL) demand, price
volatility for NGL products and natural-gas feedstock costs are the major
factors that influence financial results in the NGL processing business.  Lone
Star Pipeline operating income increased  $4.0 million in the 1998 six month
period from the 1997 first six months, partially attributable to lower
operating and maintenance expenses.  The results in 1997 were after a
voluntary refund of $8.6 million made to residential and commercial
customers.  For the first six months, Lone Star Gas operating income decreased
$10.5 million in 1998 from 1997 primarily due  to  higher  operating  and
maintenance expenses.   Energy marketing activities reported an improvement in
operating results of some $16.2 million compared with the 1997 first six
months, the result of improved gas margins.  Power development and
international gas operations, transferred  to another TUC affiliate effective
with the Merger, detracted $7.0 million from operating income in the first six
months of 1997.  Results for the first six months of 1998 were reduced $10.0
million by the amortization of goodwill recorded in connection with the Merger
with TUC.

     In the second quarter of 1998, the Corporation had an operating loss of
$15.0 million compared with a loss of $16.3 million in 1997.  There was an
operating loss from natural gas gathering and processing operations of $.7
million for the second quarter of 1998 compared with operating income of $2.4
million for the same period of 1997.  Lone Star Pipeline operating income
increased  $.5 million in the 1998 second quarter  from the 1997 second
quarter, which was partially attributable to lower operating and maintenance
expenses.  For the second quarter, Lone Star Gas had an operating loss of
$12.2 million in 1998 compared with a loss of $9.2 million in 1997 primarily
due  to  higher  operating  and maintenance expenses.   Energy marketing
activities reported an improvement in operating results of some $6.1 million
compared with the 1997 second quarter, the result of improved gas margins.
Amortization of goodwill reduced 1998 second quarter results by $5.0 million.

     The loss from discontinued operations of $228.0 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1997, included the effect of a $236 million after-tax
write-down of the carrying value of EEX's oil and gas properties due to the US
cost center ceiling limitation at March 31, 1997, and a $9.7 million ($14.9
million pre-tax) provision for estimated costs and expenses to wind-up
engineering and construction operations.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income," became effective as of the first quarter of 1998.  This
statement requires companies to report and display comprehensive income and
its components (revenues, expenses, gains and losses).  Comprehensive income
includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from
investments by owners and distributions to owners.  For the Corporation,
comprehensive income is the same as net income reported in the statements of

for the periods presented.

CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     SFAS 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," will become effective in 1998.  This statement establishes
standards for defining and reporting business segments.  The Corporation is
currently determining its reportable segments.  The adoption of SFAS 131 will
not affect the Corporation's consolidated financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.

YEAR 2000

     Year 2000 issues of ENSERCH are being addressed with those of its parent
company, TUC.  The following  disclosure regarding Year 2000 issues of TUC's
US companies is included in TUC's Form 10-Q for June 30, 1998:

Many existing computer programs use only two digits to identify a year in the
date field.  These programs were designed and developed without considering
the impact of the upcoming change in the century. If not corrected, many
computer applications could fail or produce erroneous data by or at the Year
2000. The Year 2000 issues affect virtually all companies and organizations.

The Company began its Year 2000 initiative in 1996 by addressing
mainframe-based application systems. In early 1997, an infrastructure project
to address information technology (IT) related equipment and system software
was begun. In late 1997, a corporate-wide project to address Year 2000 issues
related to embedded systems such as process controls for energy production and
delivery and client-developed applications was begun. Most of the ENSERCH
mainframe applications, infrastructure, embedded systems and client-developed
applications that will not be migrated to existing or planned Company systems
have been incorporated into these projects. These projects extend beyond the
Company's organization in an effort to also work with key vendors, service
suppliers and others so that the Company can appropriately prepare for the
Year 2000.

The remediation and replacement work on the majority of IT application systems
and infrastructure are targeted to be completed by the end of 1998. For the
corporate-wide effort on embedded systems, a majority of the assessment work
has been completed and, a number of tests on operational equipment have been
performed. The testing of  this equipment will continue throughout 1998.
Although much of the work on the corporate-wide Year 2000 project is expected
to be completed by the end of 1998, the project will extend into 1999.

Based on additional assessment work performed during the first half of 1998,
cost estimates have been updated. The current estimate for the Year 2000
effort is $28 to $31 million including $10 to 12 million for IT Corporate
Applications, $3 to 4 million for  IT Infrastructure and $15 million for
Corporate-wide Embedded Systems. These costs are being expensed as incurred
over the five-year period (1996-2000).

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     On August 3, 1998, Stan C. Thorne filed suit in the United States
District Court for the Southern District of Texas against EEX Corporation,
formerly Enserch Exploration, Inc. (EEX), ENSERCH,
DeGolyer & MacNaughton (D&M), David W. Biegler, Gary J. Junco, Fredrick S.
Addy and B. K. Irani.  The plaintiff seeks to represent a class comprised of
all purchasers of the common stock of EEX during the period of August 3, 1995
through August 5, 1997.  The individual defendants are current or former
officers and/or directors of EEX and Mr. Biegler has been an officer and
director of ENSERCH.  D&M served as  independent petroleum consultants to
EEX.  The plaintiff alleges that the defendants engaged in a course of conduct
designed to mislead the plaintiff and the investing public in order to
maintain the price of EEX common stock at artificially high levels through
false and misleading representations concerning the gas reserves of EEX in
violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
and Rule 10b-5 thereunder.  The plaintiff also alleges that the defendants
were negligent in making such misrepresentations and that they constituted
common law fraud against the defendants.  No amount of damages is specified in
this action.  The Company is also evaluating these claims and is unable at
this time to predict the outcome of this proceeding, but it also intends to
vigorously defend this suit.
