PROSPECTUS SUBJECT TO COMPLETION DATED SEPTEMBER 10, 1997 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- INFORMATION CONTAINED HEREIN IS SUBJECT TO COMPLETION OR AMENDMENT. A REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATING TO THESE SECURITIES HAS BEEN FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD NOR MAY OFFERS TO BUY BE ACCEPTED PRIOR TO THE TIME THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT BECOMES EFFECTIVE. THIS PROSPECTUS SHALL NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER TO SELL OR THE SOLICITATION OF AN OFFER TO BUY NOR SHALL THERE BE ANY SALE OF THESE SECURITIES IN ANY STATE IN WHICH SUCH OFFER, SOLICITATION OR SALE WOULD BE UNLAWFUL PRIOR TO REGISTRATION OR QUALIFICATION UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. INFINITY, INC. 1,450,000 Shares of Common Stock and 851,901 Shares of Common Stock Obtainable on Exercise of Warrants Of the securities offered hereby, 1,450,000 shares of Common Stock ($.0001 par value), are being offered by certain shareholders (collectively the "Selling Shareholders"). Also being offered hereby are the 851,901 shares of Common Stock underlying the Class A, Class B and Underwriters' Warrants (collectively referred to as the "Warrants"). Twelve Class A Warrants entitle the holder to purchase one share of the Company's Common Stock at $1.80 per share until December 31, 1997. Twelve Class B Warrants entitle the holder to purchase one share of the Company's Common Stock at $3.00 per share until September 30, 1998. Twelve Underwriters' Warrants entitle the holder to purchase one share of Common Stock at $1.44 per share until December 31, 1997. None of the proceeds of the sale of the Common Stock by the Selling Shareholders will be received by the Company. However, the Company will receive proceeds to the extent that the Warrants are exercised. The Selling Shareholders have advised the Company that they have not engaged any person as an underwriter or selling agent for any of such shares, but they may in the future elect to do so, and they will be responsible for paying such a person or persons customary compensation for so acting. The Selling Shareholders and any broker executing selling orders on behalf of any Selling Shareholders may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the 1993 Act, in which event commissions received by any such broker may be deemed to be underwriting commissions under the 1933 Act. The Company will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the securities offered by the Selling Shareholders. It is anticipated that the sales of the 1,450,000 shares of Common Stock being offered by the Selling Shareholders will be made through customary brokerage channels either through broker-dealers acting as agents or brokers for the sellers, or through broker-dealers acting as principals who may then resell the shares in the over-the-counter market or otherwise, or at private sales in the over-the-counter market or otherwise, at negotiated prices related to prevailing market prices at the time of the sales, or by a combination of such methods of offering. Thus, the period of distribution of such shares may occur over an extended period of time. The Selling Shareholders effecting their sales through registered broker-dealers will pay or assume brokerage commissions or discounts incurred in the sale of their shares.

The Company's Common Stock is traded in the over-the-counter market and is quoted on the Nasdaq Small Cap Market (Symbol: IFNY). On September 8, 1997, the closing price of the Company's Common Stock was $2.50. (See "MARKET PRICES AND DIVIDENDS.") THESE SECURITIES INVOLVE A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK.

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, NOR HAS THE COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- PRICE TO UNDERWRITING PROCEEDS WARRANT DISCOUNTS AND TO THE HOLDERS COMMISSIONS(1) COMPANY(2) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Per Share on Exercise of Class A Warrants $ 1.80 -0- $ 1.80 Total $ 730,200.60 -0- $ 730,200.60 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Per Share on Exercise of Class B Warrants $ 3.00 -0- $ 3.00 Total $1,217,000.00 -0- $1,217,000.00 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Per Share on Exercise of Underwriters' Warrants $ 1.44 -0- $ 1.44 Total $ 58,416.48 -0- $ 58,416.48 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) No discounts or commissions will be paid in connection with the exercise of the warrants.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY THE COMPANY Infinity, Inc. (the "Company"), through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, is engaged in providing oil field services and developing and operating oil and gas properties. The Company's Consolidated Industrial Services, Inc. ("Consolidated") subsidiary provides services associated with drilling and completion of oil and gas wells, including cementing, acidizing, fracturing, nitrogen pumping and water hauling. Consolidated also provides on-site remediation services for hazardous and non-hazardous waste. The Company's CIS Oil and Gas, Inc. ("COG") subsidiary is engaged in oil and gas exploration. During the year ended March 31, 1996 COG acquired rights to approximately 24,000 acres of land in the Raton Basin in Southeastern Colorado, and drilled fifteen wells to produce coal methane gas from this property. During the year ended March 31, 1997, COG drilled an additional five wells and built a pipeline system on the property to connect the wells to the Colorado Interstate Gas pipeline. COG anticipates increasing gas production from these wells and four preexisting wells during the current year while it continues to develop the property. The Company's Consolidated Pipeline, Inc. ("CPI") subsidiary operates the Company's gas gathering pipeline system constructed to connect the wells on the Raton property to the Colorado Interstate Gas pipeline. The Company's offices are located at 211 West 14th Street, Chanute, Kansas 66720. Its telephone number is (316) 431-6200. OFFERING SUMMARY Securities Offered: 1,450,000 Shares of Common Stock offered by Selling Shareholders 851,901 Shares obtainable upon exercise of Class A, Class B and Underwriters' Warrants Common Stock Presently Outstanding: 10,210,939 Shares USE OF PROCEEDS None of the proceeds of the sale of Common Stock offered by the Selling Shareholders will be received by the Company. However, the Company will receive proceeds to the extent that any of the Class A, Class B or Underwriters' Warrants are exercised. Although there is no basis for determining how many Class A, Class B or Underwriters' Warrants will be exercised, the following tables show how any proceeds would be applied assuming the Class A, Class B and Underwriters' Warrants are exercised: CLASS A CLASS B UNDERWRITERS' APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS WARRANTS WARRANTS WARRANTS ----------------------- -------- -------- ------------- Drilling and Completion of Gas Wells $500,000 $1,000,000 -0- Working Capital 215,000 217,000 $58,416 -------- ---------- ------- Total $715,200 $1,217,000 $58,416

RISK FACTORS An investment in the securities being offered by this Prospectus involves a high degree of risk. In addition to the other information contained in this Prospectus, prospective investors should carefully consider the risk factors discussed below before purchasing the shares of Common Stock offered hereby. This Prospectus contains and incorporates by reference forward-looking statements within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are based on management's current expectations and are subject to a number of factors and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Reference is made in particular to the description of the Company's plans and objectives for future operations, assumptions underlying such plans and objectives and other forward-looking statements included or incorporated in this Prospectus. Factors which could cause such results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements include those set forth in the risk factors below. RISK FACTORS RELATING TO BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY 1. LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY AND ACCUMULATED DEFICIT. The Company has had a limited operating history and has an accumulated deficit. The likelihood of the success of the Company must be considered in light of the problems which may be encountered in connection with the development of the Company's business and the competitive environment in which the Company operates. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful or achieve profitable operations on a long-term basis. (See "BUSINESS" and "FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.") 2. WORKING CAPITAL DEFICIT; POSSIBLE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL FINANCING. At June 30, 1997, the Company had a working capital deficit of $(2,692,079) primarily due to a $2,500,000 note which is due in May 1998. Management has had to devote a large percentage of their time seeking additional financing and at times sacrificing time needed to manage the Company's ongoing operations. Although the Company's operations have improved, the Company may still need additional financing in order to develop its business. 3. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OIL AND GAS OPERATIONS. The Company has recently started to devote a significant portion of its resources and management attention to the exploration and development of oil and gas properties. Such activities will be subject to a number of risks including, but not limited to, the following: A. COMPETITION FOR PROSPECTS. The Company is and will continue to be an insignificant participant in the oil and gas business. Most of the Company's competitors have significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and managerial capabilities than the Company and, consequently, the Company will be at a competitive disadvantage in identifying suitable prospects. B. LEASEHOLD DEFECTS. Although evidence of title generally will be obtained by the Company prior to any acquisition of oil and gas properties, the Company will generally acquire leasehold interests in oil and gas properties without first obtaining a title opinion. There can be no assurance that losses will not result from title defects or from defects in the assignment of leasehold rights and the like, which losses will be borne by the Company to the extent of its interest therein. It is not anticipated that the -3-
SB-210th Page of 78TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 10th
Company will obtain title insurance on any of the leasehold interests it obtains. C. OIL AND GAS PRICES. The economics of oil and gas production are greatly dependent upon the prices of oil and gas. Any significant decrease in the market prices of oil or gas could materially affect the profitability of the Company's oil and gas activities. D. MARKETS. The marketing of natural gas and oil which may be produced by the Company's properties will be affected by a number of factors beyond the control of the Company. These factors include the extent of the supply of oil or gas in the market, the availability of competitive fuels, crude oil imports, the world-wide political situation, price regulation, and other factors. E. LIMITATION ON PRODUCTION. Among other matters, states may regulate allowable rates of production, prevention of waste oil and gas resources and similar matters. One effect of such regulation may be the restriction on the amount of production allowed from the Company's properties. Considering the current low market price for oil, no assurance can be made that the allowable amount of production will be sufficient to provide a profit to the Company. F. GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION. The Company's operations may be subject to numerous federal, state and local laws including, among other things, regulation of the discharge of materials into the environment relating to protection of the environment or otherwise affecting the Company's operations. Such regulations could adversely affect the business of the Company. G. WEATHER INTERRUPTIONS. Activities of the Company may be subject to periodic interruptions due to weather conditions. Weather-imposed restrictions during certain times of the year on roads accessing properties could adversely affect the ability of the Company to benefit from production on such properties or could increase the costs of drilling new wells because of delays. 4. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH CURRENT DEVELOPMENT OF COAL METHANE GAS PROPERTY. The Company is presently developing coal methane gas properties in southeastern Colorado on which it has drilled 20 wells, and intends to drill approximately 20 additional wells in the next year. The Company may need to raise additional funds in order to further develop such properties, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to do so on acceptable terms. 5. RISKS RELATING TO OIL FIELD SERVICES OPERATIONS. The Company's oil field services business is subject to a number of risks including, but not limited to, the following: A. INDUSTRY CONDITIONS. Demand for the Company's oil field services depends primarily upon the level of spending by oil and gas companies for exploration, production and development activities. These spending levels tend to increase and decrease with increases and decreases in the commodity prices for oil and gas, so that demand for the Company's oil field services is affected to some degree by market prices for natural gas and crude oil, which have historically been very volatile. B. GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION OF OPERATIONS. Most of the Company's oil field services operations are located in Kansas, northern -4-
SB-211th Page of 78TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 11th
Oklahoma and southern Colorado. Because of this concentration, any regional events that increase costs, reduce availability of equipment or supplies, reduce demand or limit production will impact the Company more adversely than if the Company were more geographically diversified. 6. LACK OF RELEVANT MANAGEMENT EXPERIENCE. Management has only limited experience in developing and marketing new technologies and has limited experience in managing oil and gas exploration companies of this size. As a result of this lack of experience, combined with other factors, the Company has experienced delays and cost overruns. This lack of experience has also forced the Company to bring in consultants and to set up an advisory board which has caused the Company to issue significant amounts of stock and options as compensation for these persons. Recent licensing agreements, the management agreement and operating lease on the water treatment projects, and the recent addition of Don Appleby and the addition of outside consultants in the oil and gas business are intended to help alleviate this concern. 7. COMPETITION. The Company is subject to competition from numerous other new and established companies, many of which are better financed than the Company. (See "BUSINESS -- Competition.") RISK FACTORS RELATING TO THIS OFFERING 1. EXERCISE PRICES OF WARRANTS ARBITRARILY DETERMINED. The exercise prices of the Warrants were established arbitrarily by the Company with no established criteria of value. There is no direct relationship between the exercise prices and the assets, book value, earnings or lack thereof, shareholders' equity or any other recognized criterion of value. 2. SALES BY SELLING SHAREHOLDERS. Included in the Securities being offered hereby are 1,450,000 shares of Common Stock being offered by the Selling Shareholders who are not restricted as to the price or prices at which they may sell the shares. To the extent that shares are sold below the then current level at which the Company's shares are trading, the market price of the Company's Common Stock may be adversely affected. Further, this offering may depress the market price of the Company's Common Stock during the offering term because of the large number of shares being offered and the absence of a fixed offering price. The Company's ability to raise equity capital by selling shares of its Common Stock for cash may be impaired because of this offering by Selling Shareholders. 3. PUBLIC MARKET FOR COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK. Although there presently exists a limited market for the Company's Common Stock, there can be no assurance that a market can be sustained. The investment community could show little or no interest in the Company in the future. As a result, purchasers of the Company's securities may have difficulty in selling such securities should they desire to do so. 4. DIVIDENDS. No dividend has been paid on the Common Stock since inception and none is contemplated at any time in the foreseeable future. (See "MARKET PRICES AND DIVIDENDS.") 5. SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE. Of the shares of the Company's Common Stock outstanding, approximately 2,096,000 are "restricted securities" and under certain circumstances may in the future be sold in compliance with Rule 144 adopted under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Future sales of those shares under Rule 144 could depress the market price of the Common Stock in any market which may exist. Approximately 1,546,000 of the -5-
SB-212th Page of 78TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 12th
restricted shares are currently eligible for resale under Rule 144, and 550,000 of those shares are being offered for resale by this Prospectus. 6. OTHER WARRANTS AND OPTIONS OUTSTANDING. The Company presently has outstanding other warrants and options to purchase an aggregate of 3,878,337 shares of the Company's Common Stock at prices ranging from $.60 to $3.84 per share. The exercise of these warrants and options would have a dilutive effect on other investors. In addition, the holders of such warrants and options could resell the Common Stock received upon exercise either immediately or one year after such exercise under Rule 144. Such resales could depress the market price of the Common Stock in any market which may exist. (See "DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.") 7. PREFERRED STOCK. The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, no par value. The Preferred Stock may be issued in series from time to time with such designations, rights, preferences and limitations as the Board of Directors of the Company may determine by resolution. The potential exists, therefore, that preferred stock might be issued which would grant dividend preferences and liquidation preferences to preferred shareholders over common shareholders. Unless the nature of a particular transaction and applicable statutes require such approval, the Board of Directors has the authority to issue these shares without shareholder approval. The issuance of Preferred Stock may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company without any further action by shareholders. The Company presently has no shares of Preferred Stock outstanding. (See "DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.") -6-

MARKET PRICES AND DIVIDENDS The Company's Common Stock began trading on the Nasdaq Small-Cap Market on June 29, 1994, under the symbol "IFNY." Prior to that time, the Company's Common Stock was traded on the over-the-counter market and was quoted on the NASD's OTC Bulletin Board. The following table sets forth the high and low sale prices for the Company's securities as reported by the Nasdaq Stock Market. QUARTER ENDED HIGH LOW ------------- ---- --- June 30, 1995 $2.625 $1.781 September 30, 1995 $2.625 $1.453 December 31, 1995 $2.00 $0.50 March 31, 1996 $1.969 $0.594 June 30, 1996 $1.687 $0.875 September 30, 1996 $1.25 $0.75 December 31, 1996 $1.875 $1.125 March 31, 1997 $2.375 $1.25 June 30, 1997 $2.4375 $1.625 The number of record holders of the Company's $.0001 par value common stock at June 17, 1997, was 264 and the Company has over 350 beneficial owners of such stock. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared by the Company's Board of Directors. No dividends have been paid with respect to the Company's common stock and no dividends are anticipated to be paid in the foreseeable future. Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement with Seymour, Inc., the Company is prohibited from paying any dividends, without the prior written consent of Seymour, Inc., until all principal and interest under the $2,500,000 loan have been paid. (See "MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS -- Liquidity and Capital Resources.") -7-

USE OF PROCEEDS No proceeds from the sale of the 1,450,000 shares offered by the Selling Shareholders will accrue to the Company. The net proceeds to be realized from the exercise of the Warrants will approximate $715,200 if all of the Class A Warrants are exercised (after deducting the expenses of the offering estimated at $15,000), an additional $1,217,000 if all of the Class B Warrants are exercised, and an additional $58,416 if all of the Underwriters' Warrants are exercised. Management anticipates the net proceeds from the Warrants will be used substantially as follows and applied in the following order of priority: CLASS A CLASS B UNDERWRITERS' APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS WARRANTS WARRANTS WARRANTS ----------------------- -------- -------- ------------- Drilling and Completion of Gas Wells $500,000 $1,000,000 -0- Working Capital(1) 215,200 217,000 $58,416 -------- ---------- ------- Total $715,200 $1,217,000 $58,416 _______________ (1) Amounts allocated to working capital may be used for payment of accounts payable, financing possible operating losses, and other general working capital needs. The amounts set forth above are only an estimate. The Company is unable to predict precisely what amount will be used for any particular purpose. To the extent the proceeds received are inadequate in any area of expenditures, supplemental amounts may be drawn from working capital, if any. Conversely, any amounts not required for proposed expenditures will be retained and used for working capital. Should the proceeds actually received, if any, be insufficient to accomplish the purposes set forth above, the Company may be required to seek other sources to finance the Company's operations, including individuals and commercial lenders. Pending utilization, management intends to make temporary investment of the proceeds in bank certificates of deposit, interest-bearing savings accounts, prime commercial paper or government obligations. Such investment in interest-bearing assets, if continued for an excessive period of time within the definition of the Investment Company Act of 1940, could subject the Company to classification as an "investment company" under the Act and to registration and reporting requirements thereunder. -8-

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS The Company was organized as a Colorado corporation on April 2, 1987, for the purpose of searching for and acquiring a business combination candidate. On March 10, 1992, the Company acquired Infinity Research & Development, Inc., then named Phoenix Research & Development Corporation ("PRD"). This acquisition was accounted for as a reverse acquisition. Accordingly, the financial statements reflect the historical financial statements of PRD from its inception on December 18, 1991, through March 10, 1992, and the consolidated financial statements since that date. On December 15, 1993, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of LDC Food Systems, Inc. ("LDC"). This acquisition was accounted for as a pooling of interests and the financial statements included in this Report reflect the historical statements of LDC from its inception on April 20, 1990, -9-

through December 15, 1993, and the consolidated financial statements since that date On January 21, 1994, Consolidated Industrial Services, Inc. ("CIS") (incorporated in November 1993 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company), acquired substantially all of the assets except for real estate holdings and advances receivable, and assumed certain liabilities of Consolidated Oil Well Services, Inc. This acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and the financial statements subsequent to January 1, 1994, include the results of operations of the acquired entity from that date. The total consideration given for this purchase was $1,000,000 in cash, 555,556 shares of the Company's common stock and promissory notes totaling $2,000,000. Prior to March 31, 1994, $600,000 of the $2,000,000 amount had been paid, leaving $1,400,000 still owed. During December 1994, the Company reached an agreement with Consolidated Oil Well Services, Inc. ("COWS") whereby COWS accepted a reduced payment of $850,000 in full settlement of the remaining $1,400,000 promissory note. The balance was paid $750,000 in cash and $100,000 in deferred future oil well services. In September 1995 and November 1995 the Company created Infinity Oil and Gas Inc. and CIS Oil and Gas, Inc., respectively, as newly-formed subsidiaries. Results of operations of these subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements since their respective inception dates. In January 1997, the Company reorganized Consolidated Pipeline, Inc. as a subsidiary. Results of operations of this subsidiary have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the date of inception. In February 1997, the Company's interest in Infinity Oil & Gas, Inc. was reduced to ten percent of the outstanding common shares with the remaining common shares owned by the officers of the former subsidiary. Results of operations after the date of this transaction have been excluded from the consolidated financial statements and the remaining investment in this former subsidiary is carried as an investment on the cost basis. The following discussion relates to the financial statements included in this Prospectus. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 VS. THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 The oilfield services segment of the Company generated $1,168,692 in revenues and $485,842 in cost of sales during the three months ended June 30, 1997, compared to $1,154,767 in revenues and $593,999 in cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 1996. The operating expenses incurred by the oilfield services segment of the Company were $349,621 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and $371,380 for the three months ended June 30, 1996. Net operating income for this segment improved to a profit of $333,229 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 from a profit of $189,388 for the three months ended June 30, 1996. The improved results are attributed to the Company being able to obtain an increase in sales while taking measures to control operating costs. Depreciation and amortization expense included in operating expenses for the oilfield services division was $124,036 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and $122,641 for the three months ended June 30, 1996. -10-

The environmental services segment of the Company generated $24,200 in rental income during the three months ended June 30, 1997. This was offset by depreciation and amortization expense of $41,377 for the same period. This segment of the Company, which included all water treatment activities, generated $105,269 in revenues and $55,706 in cost of sales during the three months ended June 30, 1996. Operating expenses incurred by this division were $90,733 for the three months ended June 30, 1996, including depreciation and amortization expense of $41,067. In October 1996, the Company entered into a five year management and lease agreement which transferred operating responsibility for this segment to an outside party. The Company will receive annual payments of $80,000 plus a percentage of revenues over certain levels. The oil and gas production segment of the Company recorded no revenue and no operating expense during the three months ending June 30, 1997 since properties were still under development. During the last eighteen months, this segment invested $3,047,883 to acquire property rights, drill and complete twenty gas wells and construct the related pipeline system to connect to the interstate transportate system. The company expects to record revenue from the production of gas during the second quarter of this year. Expenses incurred in corporate activities were $60,673 for the three months ended June 30, 1997, compared to $56,388 for the three months ended June 30, 1996. No income tax expense has been recorded due to the availability of net operating loss carryforwards. YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 VS. YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 The oil field services segment of the Company generated $4,688,793 in revenues and $2,480,130 in cost of sales during the year ended March 31, 1997, compared to $3,814,456 in revenues and $2,123,195 in cost of sales for the year ended March 31, 1996. The operating expenses incurred by the oil field services segment of the Company were $1,515,883 for the year ended March 31, 1997, and $1,641,931 for the year ended March 31, 1996. Net operating income for this segment improved to a profit of $692,780 for the year ended March 31, 1997, as compared to a profit of $49,330 for the year ended March 31, 1996. The improved results are attributed to the Company being able to significantly increase sales primarily in Colorado and Oklahoma while continuing measures to control costs. Depreciation and amortization expense included in operating expenses for the oil field services division was $496,147 for the year ended March 31, 1997, and $490,517 for the year ended March 31, 1996. The environmental services segment of the Company which includes all water treatment activities, generated $346,545 in revenues and $190,215 in cost of sales during the year ended March 31, 1997, compared to $1,092,614 in revenues and $1,204,543 in cost of sales for the year ended March 31, 1996. Operating expenses incurred by the environmental services division were $292,539 for the year ended March 31, 1997, and $839,868 for the year ended March 31, 1996, including depreciation and amortization expense of $171,500 for the year ended March 31, 1997 and $157,539 for the year ended March 31, 1996. The significant drop in revenue, cost of sales and operating expenses resulted from the reduction in water research and treatment activities culminating in the license agreement with BOC Gases in January 1996 and the management and lease agreement with the environmental services company in October 1996. Since completion of these agreements, these activities have operated to collect royalties and rent payments and maintain patent rights and have incurred negligible expense other than depreciation and amortization. -11-

The oil and gas production segment of the Company was involved in the development of the Raton Basin gas property during the year ended March 31, 1997, and incurred negligible operating expenses. Costs incurred in the development of the wells and the related gathering system were capitalized and will be amortized in future years as gas is produced and sold. Operating expenses of $100,604 were incurred by this segment during the year ended March 31, 1996. Expenses incurred in corporate activities were $274,291 for the year ended March 31, 1997, and $435,447 for the year ended March 31, 1996. This reduction was substantially achieved in the area of consulting fees and professional services, and by closing the corporate office in Lenexa, Kansas. Operating income for the Company improved to $282,280 for the year ended March 31, 1997, from an operating loss of $(1,438,518) for the year ended March 31, 1996. This improvement was due to strong growth in the oilfield segment of the Company and the reduction in water treatment and research and development activities. Combined sales grew nominally to $5,035,338 for the year ended March 31, 1997, from $4,907,070 for the year ended March 31, 1996, but cost of sales and operating expenses dropped to $2,670,345 and $2,082,713, respectively, from $3,327,738 and $3,017,850, respectively, for the prior year. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES As of June 30, 1997, the Company had a working capital deficit of $2,692,079 compared to a working capital deficit of $1,285,105 at March 31, 1997. The decrease in working capital is primarily due to the inclusion in current liabilities of the final payment on the note payable to Seymour, Inc. This final payment is due June 1, 1998 in the amount of $1,825,107. During the three month period ended June 30, 1997 cash generated by operating activities was $243,612 compared to cash generated of $175,136 for the three months ended June 30, 1996. The improvement in the amount of cash generated was due to improvement of the oilfield service activities and the reduction of water treatment activities. An increase of $102,132 in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses and a decrease of $43,125 in accounts payable reduced the magnitude of this improvement. Cash flows from investing activities during the three months ended June 30, 1997, were ($652,784) compared to ($266,196) for the comparable period of 1996. The increase is primarily due to the investment to develop gas production properties of ($585,683). The Company obtained $106,295 in long-term equipment financing debt and obtained $450,319 from issuance of common stock during the three months ended June 30, 1997. This cash received from financing activities was reduced by the repayment of ($81,485) of long term debt and reduction of the bank line of credit by $(74,442). As of March 31, 1997, the Company had a working capital deficit of $(1,285,105) compared to a deficit of $(321,979) at March 31, 1996. The reduction in working capital is primarily due to the use of Company resources to develop the gas properties including accounts payable at March 31, 1997, which included development costs totaling $461,255. Production from 19 wells had started by June 30, 1997. During the year ended March 31, 1997, cash generated by operating activities was $892,989 compared to cash used of $(713,140) for the year ended -12-

March 31, 1996. The primary reason for the improvement was the fact that the Company had net income of $219,847 in the year ended March 31, 1997, as compared to a net loss of $1,826,439 for the year ended March 31, 1996. Net cash provided by the operation of the oil field services segment was $1,188,927. Net cash generated by the operation of the environmental technology segment was $104,942. Net cash used by the operation of corporate activities was $(262,202) plus $104,942 of interest expense paid. Cash used in investing activities during the year ended March 31, 1997, was $1,800,988 as compared to $749,172 for the year ended March 31, 1996. The majority of cash used in investing activities for both years was used to develop the coal methane gas production in the Raton Basin in Southeastern Colorado and to replace and upgrade equipment for oil field services. An additional $57,140 was spent to pursue patent filings and financing and lease transactions. These expenditures were offset by proceeds of selling surplus equipment of $70,378. During the year ended March 31, 1997, the Company received $812,500 from the sale of common stock, through exercise of warrants and options and drew $284,000 on a bank line of credit. The Company presently has outstanding publicly-held warrants to purchase shares of common stock, which if all were to be exercised, could result in gross proceeds of approximately $2,800,000. (This does not include the warrants to purchase 1,250,000 shares held by Seymour, Inc.) At March 31, 1997, the Company's CIS subsidiary held a $300,000 revolving line of credit with a maturity date of August 1997, and the interest rate of 2% over the lender's base corporate rate. The line of credit is secured by a first lien on certain vehicles owned by CIS and accounts receivable. On May 31, 1995, the Company obtained $2,500,000 of long-term financing from Seymour, Inc., a manufacturer of equipment for the food processing industry. This note payable requires monthly payments of interest at an annual rate of 10% and monthly installments of principal beginning January 1, 1996. The remaining principal balance matures June 1, 1998. This note payable is secured by a first lien on substantially all equipment and vehicles of the Company's CIS subsidiary. Seymour, Inc. also holds a warrant which allows it to purchase up to 1,250,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $2.00 per share. This warrant is exercisable until ninety days after the promissory note is fully paid. The Company does not have any material commitments for capital expenditures as of the date of this Prospectus. However, the Company is required to drill ten gas wells in its Raton Basin property in order to retain its rights to further develop this leased property. The Company intends to drill an additional ten gas wells in southeastern Colorado prior to December 31, 1997, and at least ten additional wells during each of the next three years. This pace of development will meet lease requirements to allow the Company to continue to develop the property. Financing for this future development will be necessary and is expected to be obtained by borrowing based on the production and reserves of the existing wells or by preselling the gas produced by these wells. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such financing. Management believes that the revenues being generated by gas sales together with the proceeds from the sale of common stock will provide sufficient liquidity to meet the Company's working capital needs for the -13-
SB-220th Page of 78TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 20th
remainder of the fiscal year ended March 31, 1998. Additional gas wells will be drilled and completed only when additional financing is obtained specifically for that purpose. RECENT CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING RULES The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") recently adopted or issued proposals and guidelines which may have a significant impact on the accounting practices of commercial enterprises. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share" ("SFAS 128") has been issued effective for both interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 1997. SFAS No. 128 establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share. The Company is required to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 128 in the quarter ending December 31, 1997. Under the standards established by SFAS 128, earnings per share is measured at two levels: basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares after considering the additional dilution related to preferred stock, convertible debt, options and warrants. SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" will be adopted for the year ending March 31, 1998. This statement provides accounting and reporting standards to report a measure of all changes in equity of an enterprise that results from recognized transactions and economic events of the period Management believes adoption of SFAS No. 128 and 130 will not have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations, nor will adoption require additional capital resources. The foregoing does not constitute a comprehensive summary of all material changes or developments affecting the manner in which the Company keeps its books and records and performs its financial accounting responsibilities. It is intended only as a summary of some of the recent pronouncements made by the FASB which are of particular interest. -14-

BUSINESS BACKGROUND Infinity, Inc. (the "Company") was organized as a Colorado corporation on April 2, 1987, for the purpose of searching for and acquiring a business combination candidate. On August 17, 1988, the Company completed a public offering of Units consisting of stock and warrants, for net proceeds of approximately $369,716. On March 10, 1992, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Infinity Research and Development, Inc. ("IRD"), formerly named Phoenix Research & Development Corporation, in exchange for the issuance of shares of the Company's Common and Preferred Stock. IRD was incorporated under the laws of the State of Missouri on December 18, 1991, for the purpose of acquiring the rights to a technology to remove contaminants from waste-water, and to manufacture and market products using this technology. On December 15, 1993, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of L.D.C. Food Systems, Inc. ("LDC"), a New Jersey corporation, in exchange for the issuance of shares of the Company's Common Stock. LDC holds the rights to patents relating to a poultry carcass chiller system for purifying contaminated waste water from poultry processing operations. During the year ended March 31, 1995, the Company obtained orders for two systems incorporating this technology. During the year ended March 31, 1996 this prototype system was sold to The BOC Group, Inc. ("BOC") in conjunction with a licensing agreement under which BOC will complete the pursuit of necessary government approvals and market the systems internationally to the food industry. On January 21, 1994, Consolidated Industrial Services, Inc. ("Consolidated"), a newly-formed, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, acquired substantially all of the assets and operations, and assumed certain liabilities, of Consolidated Oil Well Services, Inc. ("COWS") pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated January 7, 1994 ("Agreement"), among the Company, Consolidated, COWS and Edsel E. Noland, the President and sole shareholder of COWS, for consideration valued at $5,000,000. The consideration consisted of $1,000,000 in cash, 555,556 shares of the Company's authorized but previously unissued Common Stock, and promissory notes from Consolidated totaling $2,000,000. During the 3 months ended March 31, 1994, $600,000 was paid toward the $2,000,000 in notes. During the year ended March 31, 1995, the remainder of the $2,000,000 in notes was settled. COWS was established in 1957 by Edsel E. Noland, and has been engaged in providing services to the oil and gas well industry in Kansas and portions of surrounding states. This business has included providing fracturing, cementing, acidizing, and nitrogen services as well as trucking of fluids. As a result of the acquisition, Consolidated now operates approximately 130 pieces of oil field equipment, and employs approximately 70 people. Consolidated continued the oil field services business acquired and expanded such services to include on-site hazardous and non-hazardous waste stabilization services for private industry and government agencies. Consolidated uses some of the trucks acquired from COWS to haul waste water from customers' sites to a 20,000 gallon per day waste water treatment facility constructed on COWS' 17.5 acre site in Chanute, Kansas. This facility is the first centralized waste water treatment facility in Kansas. -15-
SB-222nd Page of 78TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 22nd
Consolidated also built a waste water and brine water treatment plant in the Silo oil field near Cheyenne, Wyoming. This plant treats nonhazardous industrial waste water and the brine water which is a by-product of a producing oil field to meet standards necessary for surface discharge. During October 1996, the Company entered into a management and lease agreement with an environmental services company which operates both the Chanute, Kansas and the Cheyenne, Wyoming water treatment facilities. In September 1995, Infinity Oil & Gas, Inc. ("IOG") was created to pursue exploration and development opportunities in the oil and gas industry. The Company owned 55% of the common shares of IOG for which it paid $550 and during the year ended March 31, 1996, invested $120,000 in Preferred Stock. From April 1, 1996 through February 1997, the Company invested an additional $59,000 in preferred stock. During February 1997, the Company and IOG agreed to the cancellation of the Company's Preferred Stock and a portion of its Common Stock, reducing the Company's ownership in IOG to 10% of its Common Stock. In exchange for such cancellation, the Company received a promissory note in the amount of $50,000 due in full in February 2000 and bearing interest at 12% per annum, secured by stock held in IOG's treasury. In addition, the Company will receive an overriding royalty on certain oil and gas leases held by IOG known as the "Redstone Project." The amount of the overriding royalty will be based on the terms of the sale of the Redstone Project by IOG. In July 1997, the Company agreed to the cancellation of its remaining 10% stock ownership in IOG in connection with the acquisition of a mineral lease on 17,300 acres in Las Animas County, Colorado from IOG. In November 1995, CIS Oil and Gas, Inc. ("COG"), a wholly-owned subsidiary, was created to acquire mineral rights and to develop and operate properties. During the year ended March 31, 1996 COG acquired rights to approximately 24,000 acres of land in the Raton Basin in Southeastern Colorado, and drilled fifteen wells to produce coal methane gas from this property. During the year ended March 31, 1997, the Company drilled an additional five wells and built a pipeline system on the property to connect the wells to the Colorado Interstate Gas pipeline. The Company anticipates increasing gas production from these wells and four preexisting wells during the coming year while it continues to develop the property. In July 1997, CIS acquired mineral rights on 17,300 additional acres in the Raton Basin and intends to develop this property as well. In January 1997, Consolidated Pipeline, Inc. ("CPI"), a wholly-owned subsidiary, was reorganized to operate the Company's gas gathering pipeline system constructed to connect the wells on the Raton property to the Colorado Interstate Gas pipeline. Unless the context otherwise requires, Infinity, Inc. and its subsidiaries, Consolidated, IRD, LDC, COG and CPI are referred to herein collectively as the "Company." On November 30, 1993, the Company effected a 1 for 12 reverse split of its outstanding Common Stock. All financial information and share data in this Report give retroactive effect to this reverse split. THE COMPANY Infinity, Inc. (the "Company"), through its subsidiaries, is engaged in providing oil field services, and in developing and operating oil and gas -16-

properties. The Company also leases and licenses water treatment facilities and technologies which it previously developed and operated. The Company's CIS Oil & Gas, Inc. ("COG") subsidiary leases mineral rights to approximately 24,000 acres of land in the Raton Basin area of Southeastern Colorado, and has drilled twenty (20) wells on this property. COG will continue to develop and operate this property while seeking additional properties to develop. The Company's Consolidated Pipeline, Inc. ("CPI") subsidiary operates the pipeline used to transport gas produced in the Company's Raton Basin property from the wells to the interstate carrier. The Company's Consolidated Industrial Services, Inc. ("Consolidated") subsidiary provides services associated with drilling and completion of oil and gas wells, including cementing, acidizing, fracturing, nitrogen pumping and water hauling. Consolidated previously provided on-site remediation services for hazardous and non-hazardous waste, and operated a centralized water treatment facility and facilities to treat brine water produced by oil and gas wells. These facilities are now leased to and operated by an unrelated environmental services company. The Company's Infinity Research and Development, Inc. ("IRD") and LDC Food Systems, Inc. ("LDC") subsidiaries have developed two specialized water treatment technologies: (1) thin film electrocoagulation and (2) chiller loop filtration and ozone sanitation (or "chiller loop technology"). These technologies are being used by the Company to custom design and install custom water treatment equipment. The Company believes that these technologies are adaptable for use in the food processing, garment, textile, gas pipeline, metal finishing and paint manufacturing industries. The Company developed, manufactured and installed one system with the Company's chiller loop technology, which was installed at a major poultry processing plant and obtained final approval by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). The Company sold this operating system to The BOC Group, Inc. ("BOC") in February 1996 in conjunction with a licensing and marketing agreement under which BOC will pursue final regulatory approvals and will market the chiller loop technology to the food industry both nationally and internationally. BUSINESS OF COG AND CPI COG identifies and pursues development, exploration and operating opportunities in the oil and gas industry. CPI operates the internal pipeline which transports produced gas from each well on the Raton Basin property to the interstate carrier. RATON BASIN The Company has acquired through lease the mineral rights to approximately 24,000 acres of land in the Raton Basin of Southeastern Colorado. This area has seen significant growth in activity in recent years as several major companies in the energy exploration industry have started development work. This activity was spurred by the completion through the area of the Colorado Interstate Gas ("CIG") pipeline which provides a means to sell gas produced in the area to eastern markets where prices are generally higher than in the Rocky Mountain area. The property leased by the Company is over several strata of known coal deposits at depths of less than 1,200 feet. This allows the Company to drill to these shallow levels to retrieve the coal methane gas using techniques developed over many years in the coal fields of Southeastern Kansas where available resources were relatively small. These techniques applied to these -17-
SB-224th Page of 78TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 24th
shallow wells in Colorado provide the Company with significant cost advantages over other companies whose techniques are based on deeper wells and larger resources. The Company has drilled twenty wells on this property and has connected 19 of the 20 wells to the CIG pipeline. Production on all 19 wells had started by June 30, 1997. The Company anticipates drilling no fewer than ten additional wells in 1997 and no fewer than ten additional wells each year through the year 2000 to maintain rights to develop the entire property. Under current regulations this property could support more than 130 wells, so the Company anticipates that development will occur faster than these minimum levels. On July 31, 1997, the Company acquired the rights to a lease of 53.46% of the mineral rights on approximately 17,300 additional acres near the 24,000 acre block described above. These rights were acquired from Infinity Oil & Gas, Inc. ("IOG") which is no longer affiliated with the Company. The Company paid $50,000 as an advance on the landowner royalty of 15% and granted IOG a 3% overriding royalty. The Company also agreed to cancel its 10% stock ownership in IOG in connection with this transaction. The lease requires that the Company drill at least 10 wells on the property in each of the first two years and 20 wells during the third year to maintain rights to develop the property. There are currently four gas wells on the property owned by Amoco which are not operating. If the Company acquires these wells and sustains production from them, the four wells will count toward the ten wells required to be drilled in the first year. Up to 80 coal methane gas wells may be drilled on the 17,300 acre block. The Company's development of the additional 17,300 acre block may be adversely impacted by the fact that another party holds the rights to the remaining 46.54% of the mineral rights. The Company will use its best efforts to work with the other interest holder, but there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in doing so. If the Company is unable to satisfactorily obtain such cooperation, the Company may be required to apply to the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission to request a forced pooling of the property. If such an order were to be granted, the Company would be required to pay all costs of drilling and completion of the wells and only pay the other interest holder a one-eighth royalty on production until the Company recovers its cost plus 200%, after which the other party would also receive a 46.54% working interest in the property. CURRENT DRILLING OPERATIONS The Company has drilled twenty coal methane gas wells in the Raton Basin in Southeastern Colorado. Fifteen of these wells were drilled during February 1996 and five were drilled during December 1996. The Company completed these wells and related gathering systems and commenced production in April 1997. The Company intends to drill a minimum of an additional ten wells in this area by December 31, 1997. The Company owned no oil or gas properties and had no drilling or production activities prior to the drilling of the fifteen wells during the year ended March 31, 1996.

OIL AND GAS INTERESTS IN LEASEHOLD ACREAGE The Company holds oil and gas interests in the Raton Basin in Southeastern Colorado as of March 31, 1997 as follows: Undeveloped Acreage Gross 20,160 Net 20,160 Developed Acreage Gross 3,840 Net 2,880 GAS WELLS At March 31, 1997, the Company had both gross and net interests in twenty gas wells based on working interests currently in effect. The group which assigned the leases on this property to the Company has an option to obtain a twenty-five percent working interest in these wells within six months of the completion of twenty wells. This option, if exercised, would reduce the number of net wells to 15. In addition, the Company will receive a seventy-five percent working interest in four existing wells when the wells are connected to the pipeline and begin production. If all twenty-four existing wells are connected to the pipeline and begin production and the twenty-five percent back-in option is exercised, the Company will have 24 gross gas wells and 18 net gas wells. PRODUCTION, PRICE AND COST DATA The Company began acquisition and development activities relating to oil and gas properties in January 1996. During the years ended March 31, 1996 and March 31, 1997, no oil or gas had been produced by the Company, and average selling prices and average production costs had not been established. During the year ended March 31, 1997, the Company incurred no operating expenses in conjunction with oil and gas production activities. Information concerning the Company's reserves appears as Unaudited Supplemental Information Pursuant to Oil and Gas Activities following the notes to financial statements. Information regarding the Company's oil and gas reserves was determined by Fairchild, Ansell & Wells, Inc., petroleum and environmental consultants. The Company presently has no agreements or commitments to provide quantities of oil or gas in the future. The Company has not reported information on oil or gas reserves to any federal agency or authority. OTHER PROPERTIES The Company continues to evaluate opportunities of both developed and undeveloped properties where the experienced employees and specialized equipment of Consolidated can enhance the value of the property. Potential properties may be relatively shallow deposits to be recovered or could be neglected fields which will benefit from some form of enhancement. BUSINESS OF CONSOLIDATED The Company's Consolidated subsidiary, based in Chanute, Kansas, has been organized into two divisions: Oil field Services and Waste Treatment -19-
SB-226th Page of 78TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 26th
Services, including On-site Remediation, Wastewater Treatment and Brine Water Treatment. In October 1996, operation of the waste treatment services division was transferred to an environmental services company under a management and lease agreement. OIL FIELD SERVICES The Oil Field Services Division is based on the business and operations acquired from Consolidated Oil Well Services, Inc. in January 1994. This division provides a number of services relating to the drilling and completion of oil and gas wells, including cementing, acidizing, fracturing, nitrogen pumping, and water hauling. Consolidated provides these services out of service facilities located in Chanute and Ottawa, Kansas; Bartlesville, Oklahoma; and Trinidad, Colorado, using a fleet of approximately 130 vehicles. Consolidated also provides services and expertise to the Company's COG and CPI subsidiaries in support of the exploration, development and operation activities of these subsidiaries. WASTE TREATMENT SERVICES The On-site Remediation Services Division offered environmental remediation services to companies which generate hazardous and non-hazardous waste. The waste water treatment facility in Chanute, Kansas accepted non-hazardous waste waters from industrial generators for treatment and disposal. The brine water treatment facility near Cheyenne, Wyoming accepted non-hazardous oilfield and industrial waste waters for treatment and disposal. Each of these activities used technologies developed by the company in addition to traditional methods. In October 1996, in an effort to focus the Company on the oilfield services and oil and gas production activities, the Company entered into a management and lease agreement with Great Plains Environmental, Inc., an environmental services company, to operate these water treatment divisions. The initial term of the agreement is for five years and with minimum lease payments to be received of $80,000 per year. In addition, the lease calls for percentage rents at 4-1/2% of revenues above a base level and includes options to extend the agreement for additional two and seven year terms. BUSINESS OF IRD AND LDC IRD and LDC developed water treatment systems which utilize two specialized water treatment technologies in combination with conventional water treatment equipment. Each of these technologies have been leased or licensed to other companies to pursue additional development. THIN FILM ELECTROCOAGULATION Prior to the acquisition of LDC, IRD developed a thin film electrocoagulation ("TFEC") wastewater treatment technology that accomplishes the removal of suspended as well as soluble pollutants using sound electrochemical and physical chemistry principles. This technology was included in the management and lease agreements involving the water treatment divisions. CHILLER LOOP (OZONE SANITATION) TECHNOLOGY LDC holds the rights to patent processes for use in treating poultry industry waste water to allow for the reuse of the waste water. The Company -20-
SB-227th Page of 78TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 27th
believes that the chiller loop technology offers the following benefits: 1. Large poultry processing plants would be able to reuse a greater portion of the water they use. Currently, such plants often use over 2 million gallons of water per day. 2. Waste products can be removed from waste water more economically than the systems presently used in the industry. 3. The amount of biological contamination which occurs in the processing of poultry is reduced. The Company obtained a purchase order for one of these chiller loop filtration and ozone sanitation systems. This first system was fabricated and installed in a poultry processing facility in Gainesville, Georgia. The Company sold this operating system to BOC Group, Inc. ("BOC") in February 1996 in connection with the license agreement described below, and BOC will pursue the final approvals of the United States governmental regulatory agencies and this customer. LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH BOC GROUP, INC. In January 1996, the Company entered into an Exclusive License Agreement with BOC Group, Inc. ("BOC") pursuant to which BOC received the exclusive right to make, use and sell products using technology based on a patent and a patent application owned by the Company for the Chiller Loop technology in the food and animal processing industry. In exchange for this license, the Company will receive royalties on the sale of licensed products using the patent and/or patent application technologies. Subsequently, the license agreement was amended to expand the exclusive rights of BOC to include all industries. The royalties will be from $8,000 to $15,000 per product, depending on the technologies used, until 1998, and $5,000 to $10,000 per product thereafter. In order to keep the license exclusive, BOC will be required to sell at least ten licensed products per year with the year starting when the first product is sold. As of June 30, 1997, BOC had not sold any products. If less than ten licensed products are sold in a year, BOC may make minimum royalty payments of $80,000 per year to keep the license exclusive. The Company retained the rights to make and sell products using the technologies in the licensed fields to companies related to Seymour, Inc., an affiliate of the Company. ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION The waste water treatment services and systems operated by the Company's licensee are designed to assist industrial, commercial and other entities in complying with complex sets of federal and local environmental regulations. These regulations are monitored by several levels of government including the EPA, state regulatory agencies, and municipal authorities. Although the EPA establishes maximum limits for discharge of pollutants into surface waters, some states have more stringent requirements. There can be no assurance that the Company's services or systems will be able to meet all of the standards now or hereafter set by every regulatory authority. In addition, demand for water treatment products is driven in part by the increasingly stringent requirements for the discharge of pollutants. If regulatory authorities decided to reverse the trend and reduce those requirements, the Company's business could be adversely affected. -21-

COMPETITION In the oil field services division the Company has only limited competition in southeastern Kansas, whereas in northeastern Oklahoma and Colorado the Company competes with Halliburton Services, a major oil field services company, and two small local companies. If conditions in the industry improve, it is likely that other companies could enter the markets where the Company operates. When compared to Halliburton Services which is a well established company with substantial financial resources, the Company may be at a competitive disadvantage. There are many companies in the waste water treatment industry, many of which possess far greater financial resources, name recognition, manufacturing capabilities and marketing experience than the Company. The Company intends to compete with these companies through its management and lease agreement with the environmental services company and through its licensing and marketing agreement with BOC. There are several other companies, universities and research organizations which actively engage in the research and development of products which may be competitive with those of the Company. All of these potential competitors, in the future, may offer products which by reason of price or effectiveness may be superior to any of the Company's existing or future products. MAJOR CUSTOMERS During the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996, the Company had no individual customer which accounted for more than 10% of the Company's net sales. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 1997, the Company billed Stroud Oil Properties $646,488 which represents 13% of the Company's net sales. PATENTS, TRADEMARKS AND PROPRIETARY PROTECTION The Company, through its LDC subsidiary, owns the rights to two patents issued by United States Patent and Trademark Office which name Louis D. Caracciolo, Jr. as inventor. The patents are entitled "Carcass Chiller and Sterilizer" (U.S. Patent No. 4,827,727 issued May 9, 1989) and "Ozonation of Containers" (U.S. Patent No. 4,874,435, issued October 17, 1989). The duration of these patents is seventeen years from the date of issuance. In addition, the Company has pursued additional patent applications in the current year. There can be no assurance that the patents held by the Company or recently applied for are enforceable, particularly in view of the high cost of patent litigation, nor can there be any assurance that the Company will derive any competitive advantages therefrom. The patents may be insufficient to prevent competitors from essentially duplicating the product by designing around the patent aspects. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company's products will not infringe on patents owned by others, license to which may not be available to the Company, nor that competitors will not develop functionally similar products outside the protection of any patents the Company has or may obtain. The Company has obtained no patent infringement abatement insurance policies on its patents. The Company does not presently hold any patents on the thin-film electrocoagulation technology used in its waste-water treatment system. The Company does not believe that this technology violates any patents held by others, but there can be no assurance that claims of patent infringement will -22-
SB-229th Page of 78TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 29th
not be asserted against the Company in the future. The Company presently does not carry insurance which would provide coverage for defense against such claims. EMPLOYEES The Company and its subsidiaries currently have approximately 55 employees. The Company intends to hire additional employees as the development of its business requires. PROPERTY The Company's headquarters is located in leased facilities at 211 West 14th Street, Chanute, Kansas 66720, along with operating facilities of Consolidated's oil field services division. The Company leases facilities in Chanute and Ottawa, Kansas, and Bartlesville, Oklahoma, pursuant to a lease from Consolidated Oil Well Services, Inc., a shareholder of the Company. The monthly rent is $3,534, and the Company also pays all insurance, taxes and operating expenses of these facilities. The lease expires on January 6, 2001. The lease provides the Company with the option to extend the lease for one additional five year period and to purchase these facilities for $496,135 during the term of the lease. In the event the Company exercises this option, all rent paid under the lease will be applied to the purchase price. The Company leases facilities in Trinidad, Colorado. The monthly rent is $1,000. The lease began in October 1994, currently expires in October 1997, and contains the option to extend the lease for seven additional one-year periods and to purchase the facility during the term of the lease. In the event the Company exercises this option, all rent paid under the lease will be applied to the purchase price up to a maximum of $60,000. The Company also leases property near Cheyenne, Wyoming, which is the site of the brine water treatment facility. Rent on this land lease is $1,000 per year for a term of twenty-five years beginning July 1994. This rent is reimbursed under the management and lease agreement for the water treatment facilities. From May 20, 1994 until June 1996, the Company leased office space in Lenexa, Kansas for which it paid $2,105 per month in base rent, and paid a proportionate share of the taxes, insurance and common area charges of the building. The lease expired in June 1996 and was not renewed. During the year ended March 31, 1996, the Company acquired direct interests in oil and gas leases on approximately 24,000 acres of land in the Raton Basin in Southeastern Colorado, and in July 1997 acquired an interest in an additional 17,300 acres in this area. The Company believes it has satisfactory title to these properties based upon generally accepted industry standards. Prior to the commencement of drilling specific sites, however, a thorough examination is conducted and material defects, if any, are corrected before proceeding with operations. These properties acquired by the Company are leases which require certain drilling activity to retain the Company's interest in the lease. The Company must drill ten additional wells before December 31, 1997, and it must drill ten additional wells during each of the subsequent three years in order to earn the right to develop the entire acreage. -23-

Commissions of up to 10% of the sales price may be earned by Mr. Ross under these arrangements. The term of this employment agreement was through February 1, 1994, but may be automatically extended for additional one year periods unless either party notifies the other at least 30 days prior to the expiration date. Effective May 31, 1995, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Don W. Appleby who is now a Director of the Company and President of a subsidiary.

Mr. Appleby is now working for the Company on a month-to-month basis. (See "-- Stock Option Plan" below.) STOCK OPTION PLAN In February 1992, the Board of Directors adopted a Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") which was approved by the Company's shareholders in March 1992. The Plan allows the Board to grant stock options from time to time to employees, officers and directors of the Company and consultants to the Company. The Board has the power to determine at the time the option is granted whether the option will be an Incentive Stock Option (an option which qualifies under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986) or an option which is not an Incentive Stock Option. However, Incentive Stock Options will only be granted to persons who are employees or officers of the Company. Vesting provisions are determined by the Board at the time options are granted. The total number of shares of Common Stock subject to options under the Plan may not exceed 833,334, subject to adjustment in the event of certain recapitalizations, reorganizations and so forth. The option price must be satisfied by the payment of cash. The Board of Directors may amend the Plan at any time, provided that the Board may not amend the Plan to materially increase the -27-
SB-234th Page of 78TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 34th
benefits accruing to participants under the Plan, or materially change the eligible classes of participants without shareholder approval. In April 1995, the Board of Directors granted Incentive Stock Options to John C. Garrison, Secretary and Director of the Company, to purchase 100,000 shares at $2.00 per share. The options vest as to 25,000 shares on July 15,1995; 25,000 shares on October 24, 1995; 25,000 shares on April 24,1996; and 25,000 shares upon certain events, which have now occurred. The options expire five years from the date of vesting. In August 1995, the Board of Directors granted Non-Qualified Stock Options to Don W. Appleby, a Director of the Company and President of the Company's IRD subsidiary, to purchase up to 100,000 shares of Common Stock at $2.00 per share. The options vested as to 12,500 shares immediately and as to an additional 12,500 shares every three months after the date of grant. The options expire five years from the date of grant. In November 1996, the Board of Directors granted stock options to Don Appleby and John Garrison to each purchase 100,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.93 per share. These options were fully vested and were exercised during the year. In January 1997, the Board of Directors granted stock options to Stanton Ross, Don Appleby and John Garrison to purchase up to 150,000, 25,000 and 25,000 shares, respectively, of common stock at $1.31 per share. The options for Mr. Ross vested immediately and the options for Messrs. Appleby and Garrison vest at a rate of 25% each quarter from the date of grant and expire five years from the date of grant. -28-

TRANSACTIONS WITH MANAGEMENT AND OTHERS Stanton E. Ross, President, Treasurer and a Director of the Company, has made loans to the Company to provide working capital. As of March 31, 1997, these amounts totaled $309,968. The notes bear interest at 9%. One note with a principal amount of $9,968 was due in April 1996 and the other note with a principal amount of $300,000 is due in June 1998. The notes are subordinated to the Seymour, Inc. note. The $9,968 note has not been repaid at this date. On April 24, 1995, the Company issued a total of 202,000 shares of its common stock to three persons for services rendered during the last fiscal year which were valued at a total of $386,200. These services include assisting the Company develop its business plan, advice regarding allocation of funds between the Company's two primary business segments, and miscellaneous ongoing consulting services. Included among the persons receiving stock were two shareholders who beneficially owned more than 5% of the Company's Common Stock: Joe Conner who received 84,000 shares, and Irving Strickstein who received 34,000 shares. On April 24, 1995, the Company's Board of Directors also approved granting 800,000 options to three persons who have agreed to serve as an informal advisory board for the Company. The options are exercisable at $2.00 per share. The persons receiving the options were as follows: Irving Strickstein 400,000(1) Joe Conner 200,000 Mitch Fazekas 200,000 ---------- (1) During the year ended March 31, 1997, the exercise price on 200,000 of these options was reduced for a short time and Mr. Strickstein transferred 200,000 options to a non-affiliated person who exercised them at a price of $.9375 per share. On May 31, 1995, the Company closed on a Loan Agreement with Seymour, Inc. ("Seymour") pursuant to which Seymour loaned the Company $2,500,000 to be repaid over three years in accordance with the terms of a promissory note. The promissory note requires interest only payments for the first six months of the loan. Commencing January 1, 1996, and for the following thirty (30) months, the Company must pay $41,503 per month assuming a 10% interest rate. All unpaid principal and interest will be due on June 1, 1998, and this amount is expected to be approximately $1,825,100. The promissory note is secured by certain property, equipment and machinery described in the Security Agreement. In connection with the loan financing, the Company issued to Seymour warrants to purchase up to 1,250,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. The warrants expire 90 days after the payment of all principal and interest on the promissory note. As a result of its ownership of the warrants, Seymour is deemed to be a principal shareholder of the Company. Don W. Appleby, who became a Director of the Company and a President of a subsidiary of the Company in August 1995, is President of Seymour. -31-

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES COMMON STOCK The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 300,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $.0001 par value. All shares have equal voting rights and are not assessable. Voting rights are not cumulative, and, therefore, the holders of more than 50% of the Common Stock of the Company could, if they chose to do so, elect all the Directors. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the assets of the Company, after the payment of liabilities and any liquidation preferences on outstanding preferred stock, will be distributed pro rata to the holders of the Common Stock. The holders of the Common Stock do not have preemptive rights to subscribe for any securities of the Company and have no right to require the Company to redeem or purchase their shares. The shares of Common Stock presently outstanding are, and the shares of Common Stock to be sold pursuant to this offering will be, upon issuance, fully paid and nonassessable. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to share equally in dividends when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors of the Company, out of funds legally available therefor. The Company has not paid any cash dividends on its Common Stock, and it is unlikely that any such dividends will be declared in the foreseeable future. CLASS A AND CLASS B WARRANTS The Company has outstanding Class A and Class B Warrants which were issued in connection with the Company's initial public offering which was completed in August, 1988. Subject to redemption by the Company and to the current registration statement requirement, both of which limitations are described below, twelve (12) Class A Warrants may be exercised to purchase one share of Common Stock through December 31, 1997, at a price of $1.80 per share. Twelve (12) Class B Warrants may be exercised to purchase one share of Common Stock through September 30, 1998, at a price of $3.00 per share. The Class A and Class B Warrant expiration dates (and the period during which the Warrants are exercisable) may be extended indefinitely, or the exercise price thereof reduced, at the discretion of the Company, upon giving written notice to the Warrant Agent and the warrantholders. All or any number of the Class A or Class B Warrants can be called for redemption at a redemption price of $.01 per Class A Warrant and at $.02 per Class B Warrant by the Company at any time during their exercise term upon a minimum of thirty (30) days' prior written notice mailed to the registered holders of such Warrants, subject to the right of the holders of such Warrants to exercise their purchase rights between the date of any notice of redemption up to and including the redemption date given by the Company. The Class A and Class B Warrants may not be exercised or redeemed unless the Company maintains a current registration statement in effect during the respective exercise or redemption periods of the Warrants. The Company has undertaken to use its best efforts to file post-effective amendments to the related registration statement to keep information on the Company current during the period during which the Warrants may be exercised or redeemed. -32-

UNDERWRITERS' WARRANTS In connection with the Company's initial public offering in September, 1988, the Company issued Underwriters' Warrants to purchase up to 40,567 shares of Common Stock at $1.44 per share. The expiration date of these Warrants has been extended through December 31, 1997. OTHER WARRANTS AND OPTIONS During 1995, the Company issued warrants to purchase 1,250,000 shares of its Common Stock to Seymour, Inc. These warrants are exercisable at $2.00 per share and expire 90 days after the payment of all principal and interest is paid by the Company on a $2,500,000 promissory note which is due on June 1, 1998. During 1996, the Company issued warrants to purchase 900,000 shares of Common Stock to Gaines, Berland Inc. These warrants are exercisable at $0.88 per share and expire on August 1, 2001. During 1996, the Company also issued warrants to investors in a private offering. As of the date of this Prospectus, warrants to purchase 41,667 shares at $.60 per share remain outstanding. These warrants expire on November 30, 1997. As of the date of this Prospectus, the Company has outstanding options granted under its Stock Option Plan and options granted outside of that Plan to purchase an aggregate of 1,686,670 shares of the Company's Common Stock. These options are exercisable at prices ranging from $0.60 to $3.84 per share. TRANSFER AND WARRANT AGENT American Securities Transfer, Inc., 1825 Lawrence Street, Suite 444, Denver, Colorado 80202, serves as the Transfer Agent of the Company. REPORTS TO STOCKHOLDERS The Company plans to furnish its stockholders for each fiscal year with an annual report containing financial statements audited by its independent certified public accountants. Additionally, the Company may, in its sole discretion, issue unaudited quarterly or other interim reports to its stockholders when it deems appropriate. PREFERRED STOCK The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, no par value. The Preferred Stock may be issued in series from time to time with such designation, rights, preferences and limitations as the Board of Directors of the Company may determine by resolution. The rights, preferences and limitations of separate series of Preferred Stock may differ with respect to such matters as may be determined by the Board of Directors, including, without limitation, the rate of dividends, method and nature of payment of dividends, terms of redemption, amounts payable on liquidation, sinking fund provisions (if any), conversion rights (if any), and voting rights. The potential exists, therefore, that preferred stock might be issued which would grant dividend preferences and liquidation preferences to preferred shareholders over common shareholders. Unless the nature of a particular transaction and applicable statutes require such approval, the Board of Directors has the authority to issue these shares without shareholder approval. The issuance of Preferred Stock may have the affect of delaying or -32-

preventing a change in control of the Company without any further action by shareholders. The Company previously established Series A, Series B and Series C Preferred Stock. However, these shares of preferred stock have now been cancelled. -34-

INFINITY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization - Infinity, Inc. (Infinity) was organized under the laws of the State of Colorado on April 2, 1987, primarily for the purpose of engaging in any lawful business, but intending to acquire business opportunities. Principles of consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the following companies: PARENT COMPANY Infinity, Inc. WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARIES Infinity Research and Development, inc. Consolidated Industrial Services, Inc. (incorporated during the year ended March 31, 1994) L.D.C. Food Systems, Inc. (acquired during the year ended March 31, 1994) CIS Oil and Gas, Inc. (incorporated during the year ended March 31, 1996) Consolidated Pipeline, Inc. (incorporated during the year ended March 31, 1996) (2) EARNING (LOSS) PER SHARE Earnings or loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding. The number of shares used in the calculation was 9,986,044, and 8,731,395 for the periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Common stock equivalents are not included in the computation because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. (3) ACQUISITIONS On December 15, 1993, Infinity, Inc. acquired all of the outstanding stock of L.D.C. Food Systems, Inc., a New Jersey Corporation, in exchange for the issuance of 74,405 shares of Infinity, Inc.'s common stock. This transaction has been accounted for as a pooling-of-interests, and accordingly, prior period financial statements have been restated as if the entities had been combined since inception. Since both companies were development stage enterprises prior to the acquisition, neither company had recorded revenues prior to December 1993. In January, 1994, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Consolidated Industrial Services, Inc., purchased substantially all of the assets, operating rights and liabilities of Consolidated Oil Well Services, Inc. The consolidated statements of operations include the results of operations related to this acquisition for the period subsequent to January 1, 1994. (4) SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS At June 30, 1997, the Company's subsidiary, Consolidated Industrial Services, Inc. (CIS), had a $300,000 line of credit available which expires February 1998. The line of credit is collateralized by certain equipment with interest at 2% above the lender's corporate base rate. As of June 30, 1997, CIS had $209,558 drawn on the line of credit. F-5
SB-249th Page of 78TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 49th
(5) LONG-TERM DEBT On May 31, 1995, the Company obtained $2,500,000 in long-term financing from Seymour, Inc. (Seymour) collateralized by substantially all of the tangible property and equipment of its wholly owned subsidiary, Consolidated Industrial Services, Inc. The note required monthly payments of interest at 10% for a period of six months beginning July 1995. Thereafter, monthly payments of principal and interest in the amount of $41,503 are due until maturity, June 1998. The agreement also contains certain restrictive covenants with respect to dividends, acquisitions and capital expenditures. Proceeds from the note were used to refinance $1,500,000 in short-term borrowings and provide additional working capital for the Company. In connection with the agreement, the Company issued a warrant to Seymour to purchase up to 1,250,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. The warrant expires 90 days after the payment of all principal and interest due on the Seymour note. (6) BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. F-6

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.

We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Infinity, Inc. and Subsidiaries, as of March 31, 1997, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ Mayer Hoffman McCann L.C.

INFINITY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (1) Summary of significant accounting policies Nature of operations - The Company and its subsidiaries are engaged in providing waste water treatment services, oil and gas production enhancement services and oil and gas exploration, development and production activities. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Infinity, Inc. and its majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Revenue producing activities are conducted primarily in Kansas, Oklahoma, Wyoming and Colorado. The Company grants credit to all qualified customers which potentially subjects the Company to credit risk resulting from, among other factors, adverse changes in the industries in which the Company operates and the financial condition of its customers. However, management regularly monitors its credit relationships and provides adequate allowances for potential losses. Revenue recognition - Generally, sales are recognized when products are delivered or services are rendered. Environmental costs - The Company expenses, on a current basis, recurring costs associated with managing hazardous substances and pollution in ongoing operations. The Company also accrues for costs associated with the remediation of environmental pollution when it becomes probable that a liability has been incurred and its proportionate share of the amount can be reasonably estimated. Management estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates that may be particularly sensitive to changes in the near term relate to the determination of oil and gas reserve quantities used for purposes of depreciating and depleting costs associated with the development of oil and gas properties. While management uses available information and techniques to estimate oil and gas reserve quantities, inherent uncertainties in, and the limited nature of, the data base upon which the estimates are based may cause these estimates to change materially in the near term. Inventory valuation - Inventories, consisting primarily of cement mix, sand, fuel and chemicals, are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost has been determined on the first-in, first-out method. Market is based upon realizable value less allowance for selling and distribution expenses and normal gross profit. Oil and gas properties - The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas properties. Accordingly, all costs associated with acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas reserves, including directly related overhead costs, are capitalized. F-13
SB-257th Page of 78TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 57th
All capitalized costs of oil and gas properties are to be amortized on the unit-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves. Investments in unproved properties and major development projects are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs. If the results of an assessment indicate that the properties are impaired, the amount of the impairment is added to the capitalized costs to be amortized. In addition, the capitalized costs are subject to a "ceiling test," which limits such costs to the aggregate of the "estimated present value," discounted at a 10-percent interest rate of future net revenues from proved reserves, based on current economic and operating conditions, plus the lower of cost or fair market value of unproved properties. Sales of proved and unproved properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in income. Abandonments of properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no loss recognized. Capitalized interest - The Company capitalizes interest on expenditures made in connection with exploration and development projects that are not subject to current amortization. Interest is capitalized only for the period that activities are in progress to bring these projects to their intended use. Total interest incurred for the years ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 was $272,869 and $266,303, respectively. Interest costs capitalized was $137,450 and $ 0, respectively. Depreciation and amortization - Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Assets Useful Lives ------ ------------ Site improvements 15 years Machinery, equipment and vehicles 5 - 10 years Office furniture and equipment 5 - 10 years Technical data and rights 5 years Organization and merger costs 5 years Non-compete agreement 5 years Loan costs Loan term Goodwill 20 years Intangible assets - Technical data and rights consist of certain legal fees incurred in connection with the Company's "Thin Film Electrocoagulation" technology to be used in the treatment of waste water, and "Chiller Loop" technology to be used in the food processing industry. The carrying values of these assets are periodically reviewed by the Company and impairments are recognized when the expected future operating cash flows derived from such intangible assets is less than their carrying value. Organization and merger costs consist of costs incurred in connection with acquisitions accounted for as a purchase. Costs incurred in connection with acquisitions accounted for as pooling-of-interests have been expensed. F-14
SB-258th Page of 78TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 58th
Public offering costs - Costs and expenses incurred in connection with a public offering of securities are deferred until the offering is complete, at which time, such costs are charged against the proceeds of the offering as a reduction of stockholders' equity. Costs incurred in connection with failed public offerings are charged to operations. Deferred revenue - Deferred revenue represents credits for future oil well services granted to a stockholder of the Company in connection with an acquisition. Revenues from these services are recognized when the services are performed. The credits are scheduled to expire in March 1999 if not used prior to that date. Research and development costs - Research and development costs incurred in connection with the Company's development of environmental control products and services are expensed as incurred. Research and development expense totaled $ 0 and $51,152 for the years ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Per share information - The computation of income (loss) per share in each year is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common stock equivalents are not included in the computation because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Cash - For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash generally consists of cash on hand and demand deposits with financial institutions. Reclassifications - Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1996 financial statements to conform with the 1997 presentation. (2) Accounting changes Accounting for impairment of long-lived assets - The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets." This Statement, which was effective for the Company on April 1, 1996, established accounting standards for the impairment of long-lived assets, certain intangibles, and goodwill related to those assets. This Statement did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Accounting for stock-based compensation - Effective for the Company on April 1, 1996, SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," requires increased disclosure of compensation expense arising from both fixed and performance stock compensation plans. Compensation is measured as the fair value of the award at the date it is granted using an option-pricing model that takes into account the exercise price and expected term of the option, the current price of the underlying stock, its expected volatility, expected dividends on the stock and the expected risk-free rate of return during the term of the option. The compensation cost is recognized over the service period, usually the period from the grant date to the vesting date. SFAS No. 123 encourages, rather than requires, companies to adopt a new method that accounts for stock compensation awards based on their estimated fair value at the date they are granted. Companies are permitted, however, to continue accounting under APB Opinion 25, which requires compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans be recognized based on the difference, if any, between the quoted market price of the stock and the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The Company continues to apply APB Opinion No. 25 in its financial statements and discloses proforma net income and earnings per share in a footnote to the financial statements, determined as if the Company applied the new method.

(3) Property and equipment Cost Site improvements $ 2,100,217 Machinery, equipment and vehicles 3,697,915 Office furniture and equipment 102,204 ----------- Total cost 5,900,336 Accumulated depreciation (1,707,652) ----------- Net property and equipment $ 4,192,684 The cost of property and equipment leased to others under operating leases at March 31, 1997 totaled $1,318,569. Accumulated depreciation on such equipment was $297,453 at March 31, 1997. (4) Oil and gas properties not subject to amortization The Company is currently conducting gas exploration and development activities on acreage in Southeastern Colorado. At March 31, 1997, the Company had not generated revenue from its gas producing properties proved reserves. Consequently, the related acquisition and development costs are not subject to amortization. The Company will begin to amortize these costs when oil and gas production begins, which is currently estimated to be during the year ending March 31, 1998. Costs incurred in connection with the Company's oil and gas activities at March 31, 1997 consist of the following: Acquisition costs $ 150,000 Development costs 2,350,676 Capitalized interest 137,450 ---------- Total $2,638,126 The lease agreement requires certain drilling activity to retain the Company's interest in the lease. The Company is committed to drill ten wells before December 31, 1997 and ten additional wells during each of the subsequent three years to earn the right to develop the entire acreage. As of March 31, 1997, twenty production wells had been drilled. Recovery of the above acquisition and development costs is dependent on a variety of factors, including actual production results and market conditions. (5) Intangible assets Cost Technical data and rights $ 67,919 Organization and merger costs 74,603 Non-compete agreement 300,000 Loan costs 28,532 Goodwill 25,000 ---------- Total cost 496,054 Accumulated amortization (249,198) ---------- Net intangible assets $ 246,856 F-16

Identifiable assets consist of assets specifically used in the operations of each industry segment. Information concerning the Company's industry segments in fiscal 1997 and 1996 is as follows: [Download Table] Environ- Oil Field Oil & Gas mental Services Production Technology Corporate Consolidated --------- ---------- ---------- --------- ------------ Net Sales 1997 $4,688,793 $ - $ 346,545 $ - $ 5,035,338 1996 3,814,456 - 1,092,614 - 4,907,070 Operating Income (Loss) 1997 692,780 - (136,209) (274,291) 282,280 1996 49,330 (100,604) (951,797) (435,447) (1,438,518) Identifiable Assets, Net 1997 3,878,901 2,771,718 1,144,982 33,560 7,829,161 1996 4,389,490 718,319 1,245,749 96,624 6,450,178 Capital Expenditures 1997 256,695 2,007,697 2,728 - 2,267,120 1996 249,290 704,936 125,321 5,845 1,085,392 Depreciation and Amortization 1997 496,147 - 171,500 12,089 679,736 1996 490,517 1,125 157,539 11,479 660,660 15) Significant customers During the year ended March 31, 1997, the Company provided services to Stroud Oil Properties resulting in revenues of $646,488 which represents 13% of the Company's net sales. Receivables outstanding from these sales were not material at March 31, 1997. There were no significant concentrations of sales to customers for the year ended March 31, 1996. (16) Fair value of financial instruments Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments", requires disclosure about the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. The following assumptions were used to estimating the fair value of the Company's financial instruments. The carrying amount of the Company's cash balances represent fair value as of March 31, 1997. The fair value of the Company's long-term debt is estimated based on the present value of estimated future cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risks involved. However, the estimated fair value was not materially different from the carrying amount at March 31, 1997. F-23

It was not practicable to estimate the fair value of the Company's related party notes payable due to the lack of adequate "market" information with which to base estimates of fair value for this financial instrument. Information regarding the carrying amount, interest rate, repayment terms and maturity is included in footnote (13). (17) Subsequent event On May 28, 1997, the Company raised $450,000 of equity through the sale of its stock in a private offering to three investors. F-24

At March 31, 1997, the Company had not commenced production from its oil and gas properties. Reserve information The following estimates of proved and proved developed reserve quantities and related standardized measures of discounted net cash flow are estimates only, and do not purport to reflect realizable values or fair market values of the Company's reserves. The Company emphasizes that reserve estimates are inherently imprecise. Accordingly, these estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available. All of the Company's reserves are located in the United States. Proved reserves are estimated reserves of methane gas that geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves are those expected to be recovered through existing wells, equipment, and operating methods. F-25
SB-269th Page of 78TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 69th
The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows is computed by applying year-end prices (with consideration of price changes only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements) to the estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves, less estimated future expenditures (based on year-end costs) to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves, less estimated future income tax expenses (based on year-end statutory tax rates, with consideration for future tax rates already legislated) to be incurred on pretax net cash flows less tax basis of the properties and available credits, and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions. The estimated future net cash flows are then discounted using a rate of 10 percent a year to reflect the estimated timing of the future cash flows.

PART II INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS ITEM 24. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS. The only statute, charter provision, bylaw, contract, or other arrangement under which any controlling person, Director or Officer of the Company is insured or indemnified in any manner against any liability which he may incur in his capacity as such, is as follows: (a) The Company has the power under the Colorado Business Corporation Act to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Director, Officer, employee, fiduciary, or agent of the Company or was serving at its request in a similar capacity for another entity, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the best interest of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. In case of an action brought by or in the right of the Company such persons are similarly entitled to indemnification if they acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Company but no indemnification shall be made if such person was adjudged to be liable to the Company for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the Company unless and to the extent the court in which such action or suit was brought determines upon application that despite the adjudication of liability, in view of all circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification. In such event, indemnification is limited to reasonable expenses. Such indemnification is not deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. (b) The Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company generally allow indemnification of Officers and Directors to the fullest extent allowed by law. ITEM 25.

UNDERTAKINGS. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the small business issuer of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the small business issuer in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the small business issuer will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a II-6

court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. The undersigned small business issuer will: (1) File, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to: (I)Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii)Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement; and (iii)Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution. (2) For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering. (3) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering. II-7
