CORNING NATURAL GAS CORPORATIONFORM 10-QSB FOR THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2003

Managements Discussion & Analysis

As the Companys business is seasonal, the interim results should not be used as an indication of what results of the fiscal year 2003 may be.



Consolidated revenue of $6,285,000 for the quarter increased $1,203,000 compared to the same quarter last year due primarily to increased billing rates.

Consolidated net loss for the quarter was $206,000 compared to a net loss of $130,400 in the same quarter the previous year.  A net loss of $206,500 was experienced in the utility operations compared to a loss of $170,300 last year.  The Appliance Company experienced a net loss of $83,800 compared to a net loss of $9,300 the same quarter last year.  The utility and Appliance earnings reduction stem from an increase in liability insurance and pension and post retirement expenses.  Corning Realty produced earnings of $13,200 for the quarter compared to a loss of $1,200 for the same quarter last year. The Foodmart Plaza experienced earnings of $16,200 compared to earnings of $15,300 last year.  The Tax Center International earnings of $40,500 are up from $35,000 last year.  Corning Mortgage experienced earnings of $14,000 compared to a slight loss of $34 last year.

The Company finances its capital additions as well as gas purchased through a combination of internally generated funds and short-term borrowing. The Company has $8,500,000 available through lines of credit at local banks, the terms of which are disclosed in the Companys latest annual report on form 10-KSB. It is expected that current capital resources will continue to be sufficient for planned operations.

(1) Before elimination of intercompany transactions.

(2) Total assets include property, plant and equipment, accounts receivable, inventories, cash and other amounts specifically related to each identified segment.

Interest income and expense have been displayed in the segment in which it has been earned or incurred.  Segment interest expense other than the Gas Company is included within unregulated expenses in the consolidated statements of income.

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets."  SFAS No. 142 discontinues the practice of amortizing goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets and initiates a review, at least annually, for impairment.  Intangible assets with a determinable useful life will continue to be amortized over their useful lives.  SFAS No. 142 applies to existing goodwill and intangible assets, and such assets acquired after June 30, 2001.  SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001.  Accordingly, the Company adopted this standard as of October 1, 2002, and no longer amortizes its existing goodwill after that date.  The Company completed its initial assessment of the carrying value of goodwill and concluded that an impairment charge was not required.

The effect of the amortization of the Companys existing goodwill on net income, and basic and diluted net income per share for the quarters ended June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively, is as follows:

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2003, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets."  There was no effect on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows resulted from the adoption of SFAS No. 144 for the nine months ended June 30, 2003.

In June 2002, The Financial Accounting Standards Board ( FASB) issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities."  This statement is effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002.  The adoption of this statement will not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The information furnished herewith reflects all adjustments, which are in the opinion of management necessary to a fair statement of the results for the period.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations, although the Company believes the disclosures which are made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

The condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys latest annual report on Form 10-KSB.  These unaudited interim financial statements have not been audited or certified by a firm of certified public accountants.

There were no sales of unregistered securities (debt or equity) during the quarter ended June 30, 2003.
