GEORESOURCES, INC., AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)







1.

In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly our financial position as of September 30, 2006, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, and 2005.



The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2006, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2006.



Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. Therefore, it is suggested that these financial statements be read in connection with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the Year Ended December 31, 2005.



2.

Certain accounts in the prior-year financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform with the presentation in the current-year financial statements.



3.

We assess performance and allocate resources based upon our products and services, which consist principally of:  A) oil and gas exploration, development and production; B) mining and processing of leonardite; and C) oil and gas drilling.  All operations are conducted within the United States.  Operations of the leonardite segment became substantially idle in May 2005.  See Note 4.  Sales and other material transactions between the segments have been eliminated.  Certain corporate costs, assets and capital expenditures that are considered to benefit the entire organization are not allocated to our operating segments.  Interest income, interest expense and income taxes are also not allocated to operating segments.  There are no significant accounting differences between internal segment reporting and consolidated external reporting.



Presented below are our identifiable net assets as of the date indicated:

Our leonardite processing facility was damaged in a fire on May 17, 2005, and has not operated since that date.  Our insurance carrier determined the scope of damage, and we have an insurance claim receivable of $41,000 and previously received payments amounting to $694,000.  During 2005, we recorded a $493,000 gain consisting of the insurance claim receivable and cash received less the net book value of the facility at the time of the fire and less direct costs incurred because of the fire.



The fire has not affected our ability to mine leonardite raw material; however, other associated assets undamaged by the fire are temporarily idle pending either the resumption of operations at the processing facility, the employment of those assets in an alternative use, or their sale or other disposition.  No depreciation expense has been recorded on these idle assets since May 2005.  The net book value of temporarily idle assets, which consists of property, equipment, and inventory, as of September 30, 2006, is $430,009.



We are continuing to explore strategic alternatives for our leonardite-operating segment, including a possible sale of these assets.  In the mean time, we are continuing with our plans to restore our leonardite facility to operations, and we have given our insurance carrier written notice of that intention.  It is uncertain at this time when repairs will begin, because the scope of the repairs has not been fully determined due to engineering and design work that needs to be completed and labor concerns caused by oil and gas activity in the Williston, North Dakota, area.  For the present time, we intend to keep viable options open by continuing to pursue minor raw material sales, engineering design and specification for needed equipment replacement, and any other strategic alternatives.  If construction activity begins in a reasonable amount of time, we will be able to draw on additional insurance proceeds of up to approximately $640,000 as repairs are made.



5.

On September 14, 2006, GeoResources, Inc. entered into a merger agreement with Southern Bay Oil & Gas, L.P. and Chandler Energy, LLC.  If the proposed merger is consummated, 8,263,000 shares of GeoResources common stock will be issued for the partnership interests of Southern Bay Oil & Gas, L.P., and 1,931,000 shares of GeoResources common stock will be issued for substantially all the assets of Chandler Energy, LLC, and 496,000 shares of GeoResources common stock will be reserved for issuance to purchase working interests in a Chandler operated property.  The proposed transactions would create a combined entity with assets in the Williston Basin, the Rocky Mountains, and the Gulf Coast.  The terms of the transactions also include Southern Bay and Chandler contributing additional cash of approximately $20 million to finance initial expansion plans of the combined entity as well as offers by GeoResources to purchase certain working interests in one of Chandlers Colorado projects.  The merger is contingent upon approval by the shareholders of GeoResources and other customary closing conditions.  We believe the transactions could close during the first quarter of 2007.  No assurances can be made that the transactions will be completed within these estimated periods of time.  See Part II, Item 5, for further discussion.



Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations



This discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, and other sections of this report contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, that are based on management's beliefs, assumptions, current expectations, estimates and projections about the oil, gas and leonardite industries, the economy and about us.  Words such as "may, will, expect, anticipate, estimate or continue, or comparable words are intended to identify forward-looking statements.  These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence.  Therefore, our actual results and outcomes may materially differ from what may be expressed or forecasted in our forward-looking statements.  Furthermore, we undertake no obligation to update, amend or clarify forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.



The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere herein. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, changes in production volumes; worldwide supply and demand which affect commodity prices for oil; the timing and extent of our success in discovering, acquiring, developing and producing oil, natural gas and leonardite reserves; risks inherent in the drilling and operation of oil and natural gas wells and the mining and processing of leonardite products; future production and development costs; the effect of existing and future laws, governmental regulations and the political and economic climate of the United States; and conditions in the capital markets.



We caution that a number of important factors discussed herein, and in other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, particularly our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the Year Ended December 31, 2005, could affect our actual results and cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in forward-looking statements.



On September 14, 2006, GeoResources, Inc. announced that it entered into a merger agreement with Southern Bay Oil & Gas, L.P. and Chandler Energy, LLC.  See Part II, Item 5, for further information.



In the following section, the results of operations of each of our three business segments is discussed and analyzed separately.  Because certain corporate expenses are considered to benefit the entire organization, they are not allocated to operating segments.  Therefore, in the following discussions, segment operating income (loss) does not include general and administrative expense.

Results of Operations - Three Months and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2006, compared to Three Months and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2005.



Information concerning our oil and gas operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, is set forth in the table below:

The preceding table presents various measures of our oil and gas exploration and production operations in the third quarter and first nine months of 2006 and the percent change from the same periods in the prior year.  Oil and gas production sold, expressed in barrels of oil equivalent (BOE), advanced 3,570 BOE, or 12%, and 14,755 BOE, or 17%, for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006, compared to the same periods in 2005.  The increases in production for both 2006 periods were primarily due to drilling that was done late in the fourth quarter of 2005 and to a lesser extent work-overs performed in 2006.  In late September 2006, we re-initiated gas production from our Hammond Field in Carter County, Montana, although that production did not have any material affect on actual third quarter sales. Since September 30, 2006, Hammond Field operations have continued and we expect fourth quarter gas production from the field to be more meaningful.  In October, operations revolved primarily around production from the nine original wells connected to the existing gas gathering, compression, dehydration, and delivery system (Gas Plant System) as well as troubleshooting and operational improvements to the Gas Plant System itself.  In November 2006, we expect to install 25,000 feet of additional gas gathering pipeline to allow eight more wells to be added to the Gas Plant System before year-end 2006.  Our goal for Hammond Field gas production is that in December we can have production up to 300 MCF per day with a Gas Plant System run time target of at least 25 days per calendar month.  In addition to our operations in the Hammond Field, on November 7, 2006, we spudded one gross (one net) new exploratory oil well drilling in our Kramer Prospect in Bottineau County, North Dakota.  In addition, we hope that we can drill one additional 3,400-foot Bottineau County, North Dakota development oil well before year-end.  At the time of this filing, the results of drilling on our Kramer prospect are not known but results will be announced when available.



For the three months ended September 30, 2006, we received an average price per BOE of $57.89, a 5% increase from the same quarter in 2005.  The nine months ended September 30, 2006 reflected a 14% increase in the average oil value to $55.07 per BOE compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2005.  The increase in sales volumes, coupled with the higher commodity values, resulted in oil and gas revenue increasing 17% to $1,942,072 and 34% to $5,538,966 for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively.



Oil and gas production costs for the third quarter increased only 1% to $702,000 compared to the third quarter of 2005.  The third quarter costs were relatively unchanged because fewer work-over operations were performed and most of our Hammond Field costs were capitalized.  Nine-month 2006 oil and gas production costs remained higher at $2,022,000, or 23%, compared to the same nine-month period in 2005 due primarily to higher work-over costs expensed in the first half 2006.  Production costs on a per-equivalent-barrel basis for the third quarter of 2006 fell $2.23, or 10%, compared to the third quarter 2005 and increased $1.01, or 5%, for the nine months of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004.  Lower three month and relatively stable nine month per barrel production costs were due to our increased production.   State severance taxes are included in our line item termed Production costs.  Severance taxes were $3.54 per BOE and $3.36 per BOE, paid to the applicable states for the third quarter and nine months, respectively.  DD&A for oil and gas operations in both the three months and nine months compared to the prior year increased due to added costs for capitalized properties and our increased production relative to our reserve base.



As a result of the production revenue and expenses discussed above, operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2006, was $1,050,000, a 30% increase from the same period in 2005.  The nine months oil and gas operating income for 2006 was $2,997,000, a 45% increase over the like period in 2005.



Information concerning our drilling operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, is set forth in the table below:

All amounts in the drilling operations table above are presented in conformance with our financial statements.  Accordingly, Western Star Drilling Companys (WSDC) revenue and expenses from the drilling of GeoResources wells or wells in which they participated are eliminated in consolidation of the financial statements, and the cost of those wells is capitalized by GeoResources in oil and gas properties, using the full cost method of accounting.  Therefore, the amounts shown in the table represent only drilling operations performed by WSDC for companies other than GeoResources.



During the first nine months of 2006, WSDCs total operations consisted of 138 operating days, drilling one well for GeoResources and eight wells for other operators.  This compares to 119 operating days drilling seven wells for other operators in the same period of 2005.  During the 2005 nine months period GeoResources also participated with a 10% interest in one of the seven wells.  For the three months ended September 30, 2006, WSDC operations were 55 days drilling one well for GeoResources and three wells for other operators, compared to 60 days drilling four wells for other operators in the same period of 2005.  The well counts and operating days used in this paragraph are total gross wells that had drilling in progress in each respective period both for other operators and for GeoResources.  The operating days and all other amounts in the table, however, are associated only with outside drilling as explained in the paragraph above.



Operating days for projects other than GeoResources decreased 15 days, or 25%, and increased nine days, or 8%, for the 2006 three- and nine-month periods, respectively.  The 25% lower utilization for the 2006 three months period was essentially caused by the well drilled for GeoResources in that period which is not included in the net days presented.  On a percentage utilization basis, the 2006, and 2005, three-month periods were 49% and 65%, respectively, and the nine-month periods were 47% and 44%.  Due to weather, road conditions, truck scheduling, GeoResources wells, and other factors, annual utilization of 70% to 80% would be as high as we might hope to attain.  Any wells drilled for GeoResources are not included in the operating days and therefore they lower the utilization rates.



Due to 25% lower rig utilization for outside projects in the 2006 third quarter, drilling revenue was $171,000 or 25% lower compared to the same period in 2005.  For the 2006 nine month period revenue was $410,000, or 36%, higher than the prior year due to the 8% higher utilization, a day-work rig rate increase that went into effect January 1, 2006, revenue from an equipment charge that occurred in the second quarter of 2006 and increased use by operators of five man crews.  Average revenue per day was stable in the third quarter 2006 at  $11,600 and 2006 nine month average revenue per day was about $2,500 more than the same period in 2005, due to the revenue factors discussed above.



Drilling costs were 4% lower for the 2006 three month period but they did not decline nearly as much as the operating days on outside projects due to higher maintenance costs on two mud pumps during that period.  Nine month 2006 costs were also higher, following the higher utilization and revenue, increasing $265,000, or 25%, over the prior years like period.  The nine-month costs were affected by increased pump maintenance costs in the third quarter and also the five man crews discussed above that have higher revenue but also higher labor costs.  Average costs per day increased $2,600, or 29%, and $1,400, or 16%, for the third quarter and nine months respectively, compared to 2005.  The costs per day increases were primarily due to the higher costs discussed above.  As shown in the table DD&A expense was 7% and 23% higher for the three months and nine months 2006 periods, respectively, due to additions to equipment as we continue to make improvements to Rig E-25 and its associated equipment.



As a result of revenue, expenses and DD&A, drilling operations for the third quarter of 2006 incurred a loss of $45,000 compared to operating income of $111,000 for the same period in 2005.  The 2006 loss was caused primarily by the mud pump maintenance discussed previously.  Operating income for the nine months, however, was $95,600 compared to an operating loss of $23,000 for the same period in 2005.



Information concerning our leonardite operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, is set forth in the table below:

Leonardite production sold decreased 59 tons, or 33%, and 5,113 tons, or 92%, respectively, for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006, compared to the equivalent periods in 2005.  Revenue also decreased 93%, or $740,000, for the first nine months of 2006 over the same period in 2005 and 36%, or $9,000, for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005.  Decreases in production and revenue for the first nine months of 2006 are the result of the May 17, 2005 fire at our leonardite facility. Raw material product for agriculture was the majority of sales for 2006.



Cost of leonardite sold decreased $20,000, or 27%, and $550,000, or 74%, for the three- and nine-month periods, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2005.  On a percentage basis, the decrease in costs is relatively proportionate with the decreased sales.  However, average per ton production costs for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006 increased $40.94, or 10%, and $293.69, or 220%, compared to the same periods in 2005 due to several fixed costs being incurred regardless of production volumes.  Although the leonardite facility is not processing finished product, we continue to incur facility expenses that are absorbed by the small quantity of raw product sales.  Those expenses were primarily normal continuing costs such as insurance premiums, maintenance of equipment, and labor costs.



Our leonardite mining operation has a 240-acre Logical Mining Unit that contains 160 acres of BLM leasehold.  In December 2005, we were issued a new mining permit and mine plan approvals by the North Dakota Public Service Commission and the BLM.  We incurred approximately $75,000 of stripping costs opening the new mine pit in January 2006.  These costs are being amortized over the expected life of the mine.



On November 17, 2005, we notified our insurance company that we have decided to repair our leonardite facility and restore it to normal operations.  The timing of these repairs is not certain at this time because the scope of the repairs has not been fully determined due to processing changes we are investigating.  Our 1982 processing facility used a fluid bed drying process fueled by natural gas that may not be the optimal process to use in todays markets.  Our plant restoration is affected by several other factors including operating with older equipment, availability of labor, maintaining better quality control for our products, and meeting EPA standards.  We expect insurance proceeds to cover substantially all of the restoration costs.  The market for drilling mud additives is strong; however, future market conditions, competition in leonardite based drilling mud additives, or future unforeseeable events and occurrence could cause us to change our plans and affect how the restoration is done.  For the present time, we intend to continue to pursue the sale of  raw material products, testing of alternative drying and grinding methods and engineering design and specification for needed equipment replacement.



Our insurance carrier determined that the replacement cost value (RCV) of the leonardite facility was $1,375,311, with an actual cash value (ACV) of $735,365.  We have received payment for most of the ACV.  Receipt of additional insurance proceeds up to the RCV amount is contingent on our compliance with the replacement cost option of our policy that requires us to replace, repair and restore the facility to operations.  If such repairs are finished in a reasonable amount of time, our insurance will provide the additional amount up to approximately $640,000 payable as the repairs are completed and invoiced.  As indicated above, we are exploring strategic alternatives for our leonardite assets, including a possible sale.





Consolidated Analysis



Total operating revenues increased $107,000, or 5%, and $1,079,000, or 18%, respectively, for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006, compared to the same periods in 2005 primarily due to increased oil production and higher oil prices.  Total operating expenses increased $58,000, or 3%, and $259,000, or 6%, and total depreciation, depletion and amortization increased $44,000, or 20%, and $89,000, or 15%, for the same periods.  These increases were previously discussed.  Numerous increases and decreases resulted in an overall increase of selling, general and administrative costs of $45,000, or 31%, and $72,000, or 14%, for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006, compared to the same periods in 2005.



As a result of the preceding, total operating income increased to $758,000 and $2,352,000, respectively, for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006, compared to operating income of $710,000 and $1,532,000 for the same periods in 2005.  Income taxes were $74,000 and $288,000, respectively, for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006, compared to $110,000 and $239,000 for the same periods in 2005.  Non-operating expense was $161,000 and $159,000, respectively, for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006, due primarily to legal fees and expenses associated with the merger agreement discussed above and preparing the related preliminary proxy statement.  After the non-operating expenses and provision for income taxes, net income was $523,000, or $0.14, per share and $1,905,000, or $0.50, per share for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2006, compared to a net income of $576,000, or $0.15, per share and $1,697,000, or $0.45, per share for the same periods in 2005.





Liquidity and Capital Resources



At September 30, 2006, we had working capital of $1,931,000 compared to working capital of $978,000 at December 31, 2005.  Our current ratio was 2.39 to 1 at September 30, 2006, compared to 1.47 to 1 at December 31, 2005.



Net cash provided by operating activities was $2,105,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to $1,904,000 for the same period in 2005.  Cash was utilized in 2006 to make payments of $1,746,000 for additions to property, plant and equipment, $31,000 for payments on capital leases, $389,000 for regularly scheduled payments on long-term debt and $313,000 for prepayment on long-term debt.  We have completely paid down our bank line-of-credit and, at this point, we have the ability to fund all operations internally.  GeoResources is an extremely small oil and gas company with highly experienced, but limited numbers of management personnel.  During the third quarter much of our human resources, and material financial resources, were directed to entering into our merger agreement and preparing the related preliminary proxy statement.  See Part II, Item 5.



We believe our cash requirements can be met by cash flows from operations and, if necessary, borrowings on our $3,000,000 line-of-credit, which has funds available for use, subject to collateral requirements.  Future cash requirements might also be provided by possible forward sales of oil reserves or additional debt or equity financing.





Item 3.  Controls and Procedures



The Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Mr. J. P. Vickers, has implemented the Companys disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company is communicated adequately to Mr. Vickers.  Our executive officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period.  Based on such evaluation, Mr. Vickers concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting him on a timely basis to material information relating to the Company that is required to be included in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.



During the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Companys internal controls over financial reporting.





PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION





Item 5.  Other Information.



On September 14, 2006, GeoResources entered into a merger agreement with Southern Bay Oil & Gas, L.P., a Texas limited partnership (Southern Bay), and Chandler Energy, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (Chandler), providing for mergers of Southern Bay and Chandlers businesses, respectively, into two limited liability company subsidiaries of GeoResources.  To accomplish the merger with Chandlers business, Chandler will transfer all but a small portion of its business and assets to PICA Energy, LLC, another Colorado limited liability company (PICA), which then will be merged into one of the GeoResources subsidiaries.  In the mergers, GeoResources will issue (a) 8,263,000 shares of its common stock to the partners of Southern Bay in exchange for 100% of the partnership interests, and (b) 1,931,000 shares of its common stock to the members of Chandler in exchange for 100% of the membership interests of PICA.  In addition, offers will be made to certain holders of working interests in a Colorado drilling project currently operated by Chandler, in which Chandler holds a 25% working interest and Southern Bay holds a 15% working interest.  These additional interests are referred to as the Yuma Interests and the holders of these interests will be referred to as Yuma Interest Holders. If 100% of the Yuma Interest Holders were to accept the offer, the merger agreement provides that 496,000 additional shares of GeoResources common stock would be issued in exchange for the Yuma Interests.  This number would decrease with respect to any Yuma Interest Holder that does not accept the offer.



The merger agreement contains various provisions requiring the parties to take additional actions in connection with completing the mergers, including additional capital contributions to be made by the partners of Southern Bay and members of PICA totaling approximately $19.4 million.



In order to complete the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, the GeoResources shareholders must approve the issuance of the shares of common stock described above, and an amendment to GeoResources articles of incorporation to increase its authorized capital stock so that there will be a sufficient number of shares of common stock to issue in connection with these transactions.  As amended, the articles of incorporation of GeoResources will authorize 100 million shares of common stock and 20 million shares of preferred stock.  The merger agreement also requires that the GeoResources shareholders approve the GeoResources Amended and Restated 2004 Employees Stock Incentive Plan (the 2004 Employees Stock Incentive Plan) which will, among other things, increase the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance thereunder from 300,000 shares to 2,000,000 shares.
