ALTEX INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

Note 1 ‑ Basis of Presentation. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2016,2017, which was derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited, consolidated, condensed financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2017,2018, and the cash flows and results of operations for the three and six months then ended. Such adjustments consisted only of normal recurring items. The results of operations for the three and six months ended March 31 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1 to the Company's consolidated financial statements contained in the Company's 20162017 Annual Report on Form 10‑K, and it is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction therewith.

The effective date will be annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2017.

Note 2 – Acquisition of Treasury Shares.Income Taxes. DuringThe Company does not anticipate that the three months ended December 31, 2016,Tax Cuts and Jobs Act will have a material effect on the Company acquired 90,000 shares of its Common Stock for $8,000.Company.

"SAFE HARBOR" STATEMENT UNDER THE
UNITED STATES PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995

Statements that are not historical facts contained in this Form 10‑Q are forward‑looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from projected results. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, among others: general economic conditions; movements in interest rates; the market price of oil and natural gas; the risks associated with exploration and production of oil and gas; the Company's ability, or the ability of its operating subsidiary, Altex Oil Corporation ("AOC"), to find, acquire, market, develop, and produce new properties; operating hazards attendant to the oil and natural gas business; uncertainties in the estimation of proved reserves and in the projection of future rates of production and timing of development expenditures; the strength and financial resources of the Company's competitors; the Company's ability and AOC's ability to find and retain skilled personnel; climatic conditions; availability and cost of material and equipment; delays in anticipated start‑up dates; environmental risks; the results of financing efforts; and other uncertainties detailed elsewhere herein and in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

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

Financial Condition

Cash balances decreased $53,000$31,000 in the six months ended March 31, 2017.2018. At March 31, 2017,2018, $1,073,000 of other accrued expenses is accrued but unpaid salary (and related accrued payroll tax liability) due to the Company's president that the Company's president has elected to defer. The Company is likely to experience negative cash flow from operations unless and until the Company invests in interests in producing oil and gas wells or in another venture that produces cash flow from operations. With the exception of capital expenditures related to production acquisitions or drilling or recompletion activities or an investment in another venture that produces cash flow from operations, none of which are currently planned, the cash flows that could result from such acquisitions, activities, or investments, the possibility of a change in the interest rates the Company realizes on cash balances, and changes in the price of oil and natural gas, the Company knows of no other trends or any known demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in the Company's liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.

Except for cash generated by the operation of the Company's producing oil and gas properties, asset sales, and interest income, the Company has no internal or external sources of liquidity other than its working capital. At May 12, 2017,4, 2018, the Company had no material commitments for capital expenditures.

The Company regularly assesses its exposure to environmental liability and reclamation, restoration, and dismantlement expense ("RR&D"). The Company does not believe that it currently has any material exposure to environmental liability or to RR&D, net of salvage value, although this cannot be assured.

Results of Operations

Oil and gas sales increased from $9,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2016, ("Q2FY16") to $16,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2017, ("Q2FY17") and from $14,000to $27,000 in the sixthree months ended March 31, 2016,2018, ("Q2FY18"), because of higher realized oil and gas prices and increased production net to $37,000 in the six months ended March 31, 2017. All of the increaseCompany's interest. General and administrative expense decreased from Q2FY16$61,000 to $45,000 from Q2FY17 to Q2FY18 and $18,000 of the increasefrom $103,000 to $83,000 from the six months ended March 31, 2016,2017, to the six months ended March 31, 2017, resulted from sales from a newly drilled well in which the Company has an interest. The remainder resulted principally from higher realized oil prices. Sales from the newly drilled well are levelling off, and the Company expects future monthly sales from the newly drilled well to continue to be materially less than those realized in Q1FY17. General and administrative expense decreased from $101,000 in Q2FY16 to $61,000 in Q2FY17 and from $194,000 in the six months ended March 31, 2016, to $103,000 in the six months ended March 31, 2017,2018, principally because of a reduction indecreased salary and professional expense. At the current level of cash balances and at current interest rates, the Company's revenue is unlikely to exceed its expenses. Unless and until the Company invests a substantial portion of its cash balances in interests in producing oil and gas wells or in one or more other ventures that produce revenue and net income, the Company is likely to experience net losses. With the exception of unanticipated RR&D, unanticipated environmental expense, and possible changes in interest rates and oil and gas prices, the Company is not aware of any other known trends or uncertainties that have had or that the Company reasonably expects will have a material favorable or unfavorable impact on net sales or revenues or income from continuing operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Operating Activities. The Company used $48,000$27,000 and $45,000 cash in operating activities in the six months ended March 31, 20162018, and March 31, 2017, respectively.

Financing Activities. The Company acquired 42,500 shares of its common stock for $4,000 during Q1FY18 and 90,000 shares of its common stock for $8,000 during Q1FY17.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures which, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management's control objectives.

As of the end of the period covered by the report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a‑14. Based upon the foregoing, the Company's Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiary) required to be included in the Company's Exchange Act reports. There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date the Company carried out its evaluation.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the period covered by this Report there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
