<PAGE> 7                      PYRAMID OIL COMPANY
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               SEPTEMBER 30, 2007
                                  (UNAUDITED)


(1)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements include the accounts of Pyramid Oil Company (the
Company).  Such financial statements included herein have been prepared by the
Company, without an audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the
disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

A summary of the Company's significant accounting policies is contained in its
December 31, 2006 Form 10-KSB which is incorporated herein by reference.  The
financial data presented herein should be read in conjunction with the
Company's December 31, 2006 financial statements and notes thereto, contained
in the Company's Form 10-KSB.

In the opinion of the Company, the unaudited financial statements, contained
herein, include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's
financial position as of September 30, 2007 and the results of its operations
and its cash flows for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2007 and
2006.  The results of operations for an interim period are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for a full year.

Income taxes:  When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some
positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities,
while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken
or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained.  The benefit
of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period
during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more
likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination,
including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any.  Tax
positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions.  Tax
positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are
measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent
likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority.
The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds
the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for
unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any
associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing
authorities upon examination.

Interest associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as interest
expense and penalties are classified in selling, general and administrative
expenses in the statements of income.

(2) IMPACT OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 115 (SFAS No. 159).  SFAS No. 159 permits us to choose to
measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value that are not
currently required to be measured at fair value (i.e. the Fair Value Option).
Election of the Fair Value Option is made on an instrument-by-instrument basis
and is irrevocable.  At the adoption date, unrealized gains and losses on
financial assets and liabilities for which the Fair Value Option has been
elected would be reported as a cumulative adjustment to beginning retained
earnings.  If we elect the Fair Value Option for certain financial assets and
liabilities, we will report unrealized gains and losses due to changes in
their fair value in earnings at each subsequent reporting date.  SFAS No. 159
is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2008.  We are currently
evaluating the potential impact of adopting SFAS No. 159 on our financial
statements.

On December 31, 2006, the Company adopted the recognition requirements of SFAS
Statement No. 158, Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other
Post-retirement Plans (an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and
132R).  Issued in September 2006, SFAS No. 158 completed the first phase of
FASB's comprehensive project to improve the accounting and reporting for
defined benefit pension and other post-retirement plans. FAS No. 158 requires
an employer to:

      Recognize the funded status of a benefit plan - measured as the
difference between plan assets at fair value (with limited exceptions) and the
benefit obligation - in its consolidated balance sheet.  For a pension plan,
the benefit obligation is the projected benefit obligation; for any other
post-retirement benefit plan, such as a retiree health care plan, the benefit
obligation is the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation.

     Recognize as a component of other comprehensive income (loss), net of
tax, the gains or losses and prior service costs or credits that arise during
the period but are not recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost
pursuant to FASB Statement No. 87, Employers Accounting for Pensions, or No.
106, Employers Accounting for Post-retirement Benefits Other Than Pensions.
Amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, including the
gains or losses, prior service costs or credits, and the transition assets or
obligations remaining from the initial application of Statements 87 and 106,
are adjusted as they are subsequently recognized as components of net periodic
benefit cost pursuant to the recognition and amortization provisions of those
Statements.

     Measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations as of the date of the
employers fiscal year-end consolidated balance sheet (with limited
exceptions).



<PAGE> 9

    Disclose in the notes to financial statements additional information about
certain effects on net periodic benefit cost for the next fiscal year that
arise from delayed recognition of the gains or losses, prior service costs or
credits, and transition assets or obligations.

     An employer with publicly traded equity securities is required to
initially recognize the funded status of a defined benefit post-retirement
plan and to provide the required disclosures as of the end of the fiscal year
ending after December 15, 2006.  The Company does not expect the adoption to
have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of
operations, since the Company has not participated in such activities covered
under this pronouncement.


(3)  DIVIDENDS

No cash dividends were paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2007
and 2006.


(4) INCOME TAXES

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting
for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, on January 1, 2007.  As a result of the
implementation of FIN 48, the company made a comprehensive review of its
portfolio of tax positions in accordance with recognition standards
established by FIN 48.  As a result of the implementation of Interpretation
48, the Company recognized no material adjustments to liabilities or
stockholders equity.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction,
California and New York states.  With few exceptions, the Company is no longer
subject to U.S. federal tax examination for the years before 2003.  State
jurisdictions that remain subject to examination range from 2002 to 2006.  The
Company does not believe there will be any material changes in its
unrecognized tax positions over the next 12 months.

The Company policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any
unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.  As of the
date of adoption of FIN 48, the Company did not have any accrued interest or
penalties associated with any unrecognized tax benefits, nor was any interest
expense recognized during the quarter.


(5)  COMMITMENTS

In February 2002, the Company entered into an employment agreement with
John H. Alexander pursuant to which Mr. Alexander agreed to serve as the
Company's Vice President. On June 3, 2004, Mr. Alexander was appointed as the
Company's President and Chief Executive Officer.  The employment agreement is
for an initial term of six years, which term automatically renews annually if
written notice is not tendered.

<PAGE> 10

Pursuant to the employment agreement, the Company may terminate Mr.
Alexander's employment with or without cause at any time before its term
expires upon providing written notice.  In the event the Company terminates
Mr. Alexander's employment without cause, Mr. Alexander would be entitled to
receive a severance amount equal to his annual base salary and benefits for
the balance of the term of his employment agreement.  In the event of
termination by reason of Mr. Alexander's death or permanent disability, his
legal representative will be entitled to receive his annual salary and
benefits for the remaining term of his employment agreement.  In the event of,
or termination following, a change in control of the Company, as defined in
the agreement, Mr. Alexander would be entitled to receive his annual salary
and benefits for the remainder of the term of his agreement.  In the event
that Mr. Alexander is terminated the Company would incur approximately
$600,000 in costs.


(6) INCOME TAX PROVISION

The Company's income tax provision consists mainly of the current provision
for Federal and California income taxes.  Differences exist between certain
accounting policies and the related provisions included in federal income tax
rules.  The amounts of these differences and other factors cause the total
income tax provision to differ from an amount computed by applying the federal
and state statutory income tax rate to financial income.  The federal and
state income tax expense at the statutory rate at September 30, 2007 is
approximately $548,000.  The federal and state income tax provision for tax
return purposes at September 30, 2007 is approximately $183,000.  The
difference of $365,000 is due primarily to timing differences and statutory
depletion which were fully reserved..


(7) STOCK SPLIT

On March 28, 2006, the Company's Board of Directors approved a 3 for 2 stock
split payable on May 1, 2006, to shareholders of record as of April 17, 2006.

                                                         Common Stock

                                                           =========

(8) CHANGE IN AUTHORIZED SHARES

At the Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 1, 2006, the Shareholders
approved an amendment to the Company's Articles of Incorporation to increase
the number of authorized shares of Common Stock from 10,000,000 to 50,000,000
and to authorize the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of a newly created
class of Preferred Stock.


<PAGE> 11


(9) SEVERANCE AWARD AGREEMENT

On January 9, 2007, the Company and John Alexander entered into a Severance
Award Agreement pursuant to which the Company awarded Mr. Alexander a
supplemental payment in connection with his future severance of employment
with the Company.  Mr. Alexander serves as the Company's Chief Executive
Officer.  Pursuant to the Severance Award Agreement and following the
termination of Mr. Alexander's employment, he will be entitled to receive (at
the Company's option) 20,000 shares of the Company's common stock or the
then-fair market value of the shares.  The closing price of a share of the
Company's common stock on September 30, 2007 was $3.31 for a total of $66,200.


(10) INCENTIVE AND RETENTION PLAN

On January 9, 2007, the Company's Board of Directors adopted an Incentive and
Retention Plan pursuant to which the Company's officers and other employees
selected by the Company's Compensation Committee are entitled to receive
payments if they are employed by the Company as of the date of a 'Corporate
Transaction,' as defined in the Incentive and Retention Plan.  A 'Corporate
Transaction' includes certain mergers involving the Company, sales of Company
assets, and other changes in the control of the Company, as specified in the
Incentive and Retention Plan.  In general, the amount that is payable to each
plan participant will equal the number of plan units that have been granted to
him or her, multiplied by the increase in the value of the Company between
January 9, 2007 and the date of a Corporate Transaction.


(11) RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTION

Effective January 1, 1990, John H. Alexander, an officer and director of the
Company participated with a group of investors that acquired the mineral and
fee interest on one of the Company's oil and gas leases (Santa Fe Energy
lease) in the Carneros Creek field after the Company declined to participate.
The thirty-three percent interest owned by Mr. Alexander represents a minority
interest in the investor group.  Royalties on oil and gas production from this
property paid to the investor group approximated $244,000 during the first
nine months of 2007.


(12) GAIN ON SALE OF FIXED ASSETS

Effective July 9, 2007, the Company entered into an escrow agreement with a
third-party for the sale of real property (160 acres of grazing land).  The
closing date for the sale was August 17, 2007.  Proceeds from the sale were
$448,471 for a gain on the sale of real property before taxes of $440,473.

(13) SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On September 28, 2007, at a meeting of the Board of Directors, the Board
approved the Company's participation in a natural gas drilling prospect
containing 5,700 contiguous acres in McMullen County Texas.  The Company
purchased a twelve and one half percent gross interest (before payout) in this
prospect for $415,000.  The initial phase of this prospect is the re-drilling
of an existing well sometime in the forth quarter of 2007 and the drilling of
a new well scheduled for the first quarter of 2008.  The Company estimates
that its portion of the re-drilling operations in the forth quarter of 2007
will be approximately $95,000 and its share of the drilling of a new well in
early 2008 will be approximately $315,000.  The Company executed a Joint
Venture Agreement and is a non-operator in this prospect.


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


                         IMPACT OF CHANGING PRICES

The Company's revenue is affected by crude oil prices paid by the major oil
companies.  Average crude oil prices for the third quarter of 2007 increased
by approximately $8.00 when compared with the same period for 2006.  Average
crude oil prices for the first nine months of 2007 increased by approximately
ninety cents per equivalent barrel when compared with the same period for
2006.  At the end of the third quarter of 2007, crude oil prices had increased
by approximately $21.45 per barrel when compared with crude oil prices at
December 31, 2006.


                      LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash increased by $818,274 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
During the first nine months of 2007, operating activities provided cash of
$1,121,956.  The cash proved by operating activities includes a gain of
$440,473 from the sale of fixed assets.  Cash was used by capital expenditures
of $743,402 and principal payments on long-term debt totaling $28,351.  See
the Statements of Cash Flows for additional detailed information. A $500,000
line of credit and short-term investments of $1,465,802 provided additional
liquidity during the nine months ended September 30, 2007.


                          FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION

Crude oil prices have increased by approximately $12.15 per barrel as of
November 12, 2007, when compared to prices at September 30, 2007.

In the last week of October the Company began drilling operations on its
Anderson property located in Carneros Creek, in Kern County.  The new well,
Anderson No. 7, penetrated all of the expected oil zones on this property and

<PAGE> 13

was successfully completed and hydraulically oil fraced in late October.  As
of November 13, 2007, the well is choked back and producing at the rate of 38
barrels of clean 31 gravity oil per day.  At the same time the Anderson No. 7
was fraced, the Company re-fraced an existing well on the Anderson property
and that well is currently choked back and producing approximately 18 barrels
per day, up from a previous 5 barrels per day.

On September 28, 2007, at a meeting of the Board of Directors, the Board
approved the Company's participation in a natural gas drilling prospect
containing 5,700 contiguous acres in McMullen County Texas.  The Company
purchased a twelve and one half percent gross interest (before payout) in this
prospect for $415,000.  The initial phase of this prospect is the re-drilling
of an existing well sometime in the forth quarter of 2007 and the drilling of
a new well scheduled for the first quarter of 2008.  The Company estimates
that its portion of the re-drilling operations in the forth quarter of 2007
will be approximately $95,000 and its share of the drilling of a new well in
early 2008 will be approximately $315,000.  The Company executed a Joint
Venture Agreement and is a non-operator in this prospect.

The Company's growth in 2007 will be highly dependant on the amount of success
the Company has in its operations and capital investments, including the
outcome of wells that have not yet been drilled.  The Company's capital
investment program may be modified during the year due to explorations and
development successes or failures, market conditions and other variables.  The
production and sales of oil and gas involves many complex processes that are
subject to numerous uncertainties, including reservoir risk, mechanical
failures, human error and market conditions.

The Company has positioned itself, over the past several years, to withstand
various types of economic uncertainties, with a program of consolidating
operations on certain producing properties and concentrating on properties
that provide the major revenue sources.  The drilling of a new well and
several limited work-overs of certain wells have allowed the Company to
maintain its crude oil reserves for the last three years.  The Company expects
to maintain its reserve base in 2007, by drilling new wells and routine
maintenance of its existing wells.

The Company may be subject to future costs necessary for compliance with the
new implementation of air and water environmental quality requirements of the
various state and federal governmental agencies.  The requirements and costs
are unknown at this time, but management believes that costs could be
significant in some cases.  As the scope of the requirements become more
clearly defined, management may be better equipped to determine the true costs
to the Company.

The Company continues to absorb the costs for various state and local fees and
permits under new environmental programs, the sum of which were not material
during 2006 and 2007.  The Company retains outside consultants to assist the
Company in maintaining compliance with these regulations.  The  Company is
actively pursuing an ongoing policy of upgrading and restoring older
properties to comply with current and proposed environmental regulations.  The
costs of upgrading and restoring older properties to comply with environmental

<PAGE> 14

regulations have not been determined.  Management believes that these costs
will not have a material adverse effect upon its financial position or results
of operations.

Portions of the Quarterly Report, including Management's Discussion and
Analysis, contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the "safe
harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors that may cause the Company's actual results
and performance in future periods to be materially different from any future
results or performance suggested in forward-looking statements in this
release.  Such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this
report and the Company expressly disclaims any obligation to update or revise
any forward-looking statements found herein to reflect any changes in Company
expectations or results or any change in events.  Factors that could cause
results to differ materially include, but are not limited to: the timing and
extent of changes in commodity prices of oil, gas and electricity,
environmental risk, drilling and operational costs, uncertainties about
estimates of reserves and government regulations.

Item 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, based
on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, that

       ANALYSIS OF SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2007
  COMPARED TO THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006

REVENUES

Oil and gas revenues increased by 8% for the three months ended September 30,
2007 when compared with the same period for 2006.  Oil and gas revenues
increased by 12% due to higher average crude oil prices for the third quarter
of 2007.  The average price of the Company's oil and gas for the third
quarter of 2007 increased by approximately $8.00 per equivalent barrel when

<PAGE> 15

compared to the same period of 2006.  Revenues decreased by 4% due to lower
crude oil production/shipments.  The Company's net revenue share of crude oil
production/sales decreased by approximately 700 barrels for the third
quarter of 2007.

Gain on Sale of Fixed Assets - Reflects the gain on the sale of real property.
Effective July 9, 2007, the Company entered into an escrow agreement with a
third-party for the sale of real property (160 acres of grazing land).  The
closing date for the sale was August 17, 2007.  Proceeds from the sale were
$448,471 for a gain on the sale of real property before taxes of $440,473.


OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses decreased by approximately 3.5% for the third quarter of
2007.  The cost to produce an equivalent barrel of crude oil increased by
approximately eighteen cents per barrel (total cost of approximately $24.94
per equivalent barrel) for the third quarter of 2007 when compared with the
third quarter of 2006.

Equipment rental decreased by approximately 7% due primarily to the rental of
equipment for the Anderson #6 well in the third quarter of 2006.  The Company
rented a temporary crude oil storage tank, blowout prevention equipment and
gas flare for this well. No similar costs were incurred during the same period
of 2007 for the Anderson lease.

Labor costs increased by approximately 3.8% due primarily to a decrease in
capitalized labor costs.  In the third quarter of 2006 labor costs of $13,300
were capitalized as a result of drilling a new well.  In the same period of
2007, the Company capitalized $2,900 in labor costs.  This resulted in an
increase of 2.4% in labor costs for 2007.


GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

General and administrative expenses increased by approximately 27% for the
third quarter of 2007 when compared with the same period of 2006.
Accounting services increased by 29% for the three months ended September 30,
2007.  The Company has retained an outside consulting firm to provide
assistance and guidance for its efforts to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley's
requirements for management's assessment of internal controls.  The fees paid
for this project have increased accounting services by 26% during the third
quarter of 2007 when compared with the same period of 2006.

PROVISION FOR DEPLETION, DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

The provision for depletion, depreciation and amortization increased by 52%
for the third quarter of 2007, when compared with the same period of 2006.
The increase is due primarily to a 49% increase in depletion of the Companies
oil and gas properties.  The increase in depletion is due primarily to an
increase in the depletable base of oil and gas properties which is due to the
drilling of three new wells in 2006 and one new well in 2007.

INCOME TAX PROVISION

The Company's income tax provision consists mainly of current estimated taxes
for Federal and California state income taxes. The increase in the income tax
provision is due to higher projected income tax liabilities at September 30,
2007, when compared with the same period in 2006.  The tax provision increased
due primarily to the additional tax liability generated by the gain on the
sale of fixed assets in the third quarter of 2007.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2007
  COMPARED TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006


REVENUES

Oil and gas revenues increased by approximately 1% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007 when compared with the same period for 2006.  Oil and gas
revenues increased due to higher average crude oil prices for the first nine
months of 2007.  The average price of the Company's oil and gas for the first
six months of 2007 increased by approximately ninety cents per equivalent
barrel when compared with the same period for 2006.  The Company's net revenue
share of crude oil production/sales decreased by approximately 500 barrels for
the nine months ended September 30, 2007.


OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses increased by approximately 7% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007, when compared with the same period for 2006.  The cost to
produce an equivalent barrel of crude oil increased by approximately $1.70 per
barrel (total cost of approximately $23.45 per equivalent barrel) for the nine
months ended September 30, 2007.

Labor costs increased by approximately 6% due primarily to a decrease in
capitalized labor costs.  In the first nine months of 2006 labor costs of
$62,800 were capitalized as a result of drilling three new wells.  In the same
period of 2007, the Company capitalized $23,000 in labor costs for the
drilling of one new well.  This resulted in an increase of 3.6% in labor costs
for 2007.  The remaining increase in labor costs is due to an increase in
hourly wages that was effective July 1, 2006.


GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

General and administrative expenses increased by approximately 52% for the
nine months ended September 30, 2007, when compared with the same period for
2006.  Accounting services increased by 35% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007.  The Company's audit fees increased by 17% due to both an
increase in those fees and the timing of billings related to those fees.  The
Company has also retained an outside consulting firm to provide assistance and
guidance for its  efforts to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley's requirements for

<PAGE> 17

management's assessment of internal controls.  The fees paid for this project
increased accounting services by 18% during the first nine months of 2007.
This was offset by lower costs for legal and consulting services.

Compensation costs increased by 14% due primarily to the approval of the
Severance Award Agreement by the Board of Directors on January 9, 2007.


PROVISION FOR DEPLETION, DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

The provision for depletion, depreciation and amortization increased by 57%
for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, when compared with the same
period for 2006.  The increase is due primarily to a 52% increase in depletion
of the Companies oil and gas properties.  The increase in depletion is due
primarily to an increase in the depletable base of oil and gas properties due
to the drilling of three new wells in 2006 and one new well in 2007.


INCOME TAX PROVISION

The Company's income tax provision consists mainly of current estimated taxes
for Federal and California state income taxes. The decrease in the income tax
provision is due to lower projected income tax liabilities at September 30,
2007, when compared with the same period in 2006.
