CALLON PETROLEUM COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2002

1. GENERAL

The financial information presented as of any date other than December
31, has been prepared from the books and records without audit.
Financial information as of December 31, has been derived from the
audited financial statements of the Company, but does not include all
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the
financial information for the periods indicated, have been included.
For further information regarding the Company's accounting policies,
refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes for
the year ended December 31, 2001 included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K dated March 29, 2002.

In the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K dated March 29, 2002, the
Company discussed its alternatives involving the $36.0 million of the
10.125% Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Notes") that will mature on
September 15, 2002 and increasing the availability of the Company's $75
million Credit Facility with First Union National Bank (the "Credit
Facility"). On July 9, 2002, the Company announced that the lenders
under the Credit Facility have agreed to increase availability under
the revolving borrowing base from $50 million to $75 million. In
addition, the holders of $15.9 million of the $36.0 million of the
Notes have consented to an extension of such Notes until July 31, 2004.
The Company is in ongoing negotiations for similar extensions with the
holders of $11.5 million of the Notes.

Non-discretionary capital expenditures include completion of the Medusa
deepwater discovery, currently scheduled to begin production in the
first quarter of 2003. The Company anticipates that cash flow generated
during 2002 and current availability under the Credit Facility will
provide necessary capital to enable the Company to continue its
operational activities until such time as production from the Medusa
discovery begins. At that time, the Company anticipates that the Medusa
reserves and production will be integrated into the borrowing base of
the Company's Credit Facility and will provide additional available
borrowing capacity. This increase in borrowing capacity as well as
significant additional cash flow from the new production will provide
funds for future discretionary capital expenditures.

Effective January 1, 2001, the Company adopted Statement of Accounting
Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities, as amended ("SFAS 133"). SFAS 133 establishes accounting
and reporting standards requiring that derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts,
be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or a liability
measured at its fair value. Changes in the value of derivatives that
qualify as cash flow hedges to the extent effective are reported in
other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders' equity, until
realized. See Note 3.

2. PER SHARE AMOUNTS

Basic earnings per common share were computed by dividing net income by
the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding
during the quarter. Diluted earnings or loss per common share were
determined on a weighted average basis using common shares issued and
outstanding, adjusted for the effect of stock options, warrants, and
non-vested restricted stock




6


considered common stock equivalents computed using the treasury stock
method and the effect of the convertible preferred stock (if dilutive).

The earnings per share computation for the six-month period ended June
30, 2001 includes the conversion of preferred stock in the computation
of diluted income per share because they were dilutive. The conversion
of the preferred stock was not included in the calculations for the
quarter ended June 30, 2001 or in any calculation for 2002 due to their
antidilutive effect on diluted income or loss per share.

Stock options, warrants, and non-vested restricted stock representing
approximately 2,339,000 and 182,500 shares for the quarters ended June
30, 2002 and 2001 as well as 2,701,000 and 175,000 shares for the
six-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 were not dilutive and
therefore were not included in the computations of diluted income per
share.

A reconciliation of the basic and diluted earnings per share
computation is as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

3. DERIVATIVES

The Company periodically uses derivative financial instruments to
manage oil and gas price risk.

In March 2002, the Company purchased put options, which established an
average floor price of $2.65 per Mcf on 6.1 Bcf of production from
April 2002 through September 2002. The Company elected not to designate
these derivative financial instruments as accounting hedges and
accordingly, accounted for these contracts under mark-to-market
accounting. The Company recognized a loss of approximately $381,950 in
the second quarter of 2002 related to these derivative contracts.
Year-to-date loss is $769,950 through June 30, 2002. Fair value of
these puts is $58,800 at June 30, 2002.

In the second quarter of 2002, the Company entered into no cost natural
gas collar contracts in effect for March 2003 through October 2003.
These agreements are for volumes of 150,000 Mcf per month with an
average ceiling price of $4.80 and a floor price of $3.50. These
contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges under SFAS 133. The
fair value of these collar contracts at June 30, 2002, recorded in the
balance sheet is $136,108 and $88,470 (net of tax) as other
comprehensive income.

In April 2001, the Company entered into derivative contracts for 2002
production with Enron North America Corp. ("Enron derivatives"). Enron
North America Corp. filed for protection under the bankruptcy laws in
late 2001. As a result of the credit risk associated with these Enron
derivatives; hedge accounting was not available due to ineffectiveness
as of September 30, 2001. As of December 31, 2001 the contracts have
been marked to the market. In the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company
charged to expense (non-cash) $9.2 million related to these Enron
derivatives. The Company has no other contracts with Enron or its
subsidiaries.

The $5,971,000 (net of tax) recorded in other comprehensive income at
December 31, 2001 is related to the fair value as of September 30, 2001
of the natural gas collar contracts with Enron North America Corp.,
which mature in 2002. As the contracts mature in 2002, the Company will
record non-cash revenue each month, offsetting the amounts in other
comprehensive income (net of tax) related to the derivatives. The
Company recorded approximately $2.9 million related to these Enron
derivatives in the first quarter of 2002 and $2.3 million in the second
quarter of 2002 as oil and gas revenue.

In the second quarter of 2002, the Company completed the sale of its
claims against Enron for hedging transactions for $2.5 million in cash.
In the fourth quarter of 2001, Callon reported a non-cash charge for
the total value of these claims. As a result of the sale, the company
reported a pre-tax gain of $2.5 million in the second quarter of 2002.

The Company has no other derivative contracts.

4. LONG-TERM DEBT

As discussed in Note 1, on June 30, 2002 the Company amended the Credit
Facility to increase availability under the revolving borrowing base
from $50 million to $75 million under a dual tranche loan. The Tranche
A revolver bears interest at .25% to .75% above a defined base rate
depending on utilization of the borrowing base or at the option of the
Company, LIBOR plus 2% to 2.5% based on utilization of the borrowing
base and has a maximum aggregate credit amount of $45 million. The
Tranche B part of the facility will bear interest at 15% and has an
aggregate maximum credit amount



8


of $30 million. The maturity date of the Credit Facility is June 30,
2004 and the $75 million borrowing base is subject to semi-annual
re-determinations in April and October of each year. The amended Credit
Facility contains substantially the same covenants as the original
Credit Facility.

In addition, the holders of $15.9 million out of $36.0 million of the
Company's 10.125% Senior Subordinated Notes due September 15, 2002 (the
"Notes") have consented to an extension of such Notes until July 31,
2004. The Company granted 190,980 warrants with a fair market value of
approximately $965,000 to purchase Common Stock of the Company and
consent fees in the amount of $1.6 million to the holders of the notes
that granted the extensions. The warrants have a maturity of five years
and an exercise price of $0.01. The Company is in ongoing negotiations
for similar extensions with the holders of $11.5 million of the Notes.

The $20.1 million in Notes that have not agreed, at this time, to the
extension of the maturity date discussed above are classified as
long-term to reflect the maturity of the new Credit Facility which will
be used to refinance the remaining Notes not extended.

The Company accounted for the extension of the $15.9 million in Notes
described above as an extinguishment of the Notes and the issuance of
new securities recorded at a fair value of $13.4 million. The net loss
on extinguishment, including the warrants and fees paid described above
was not significant. Costs deferred with the extensions will be
amortized through July of 2004.

6. 2002 STOCK PLAN

In February 2002, the Board of Directors of the Company approved and
adopted the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2002 Plan"). Pursuant to
the 2002 Plan, 350,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for
issuance upon the exercise of options or for grants of stock options,
stock appreciation rights or units, bonus stock, or performance shares
or units.

In the first quarter of 2002, the Company awarded 300,000 shares of
restricted stock from the 1996 and the 2002 Plan to certain officers
and employees to be issued as vested. These shares generally will vest
over a three-year period (one-third in each year) beginning in November
2002. The deferred compensation portion of this grant will be amortized
to expense over the vesting period.

7. SALE OF PIPELINES

In May 2002, the Company completed the sale of its natural gas pipeline
at the North Dauphin Island field in Mobile Bay as well as its interest
in a pipeline that is currently not in use, in the Mobile 908 Area. The
Company received $7.0 million ($6.8 million after interim operations
allocations) and the pipelines had a net book value of $4.3 million.

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

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section
27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934. All statements other than statements of historical facts included in
this report, including statements regarding the Company's financial position,
adequacy of resources, estimated reserve quantities, business strategies, plans,
objectives and expectations for future operations and covenant compliance, are
forward-looking statements. The Company can give no assurances that the
assumptions upon which such forward-looking statements are based will prove to
have been correct. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from the Company's expectations ("Cautionary Statements") are
disclosed below, in the section "Risk Factors" included in the Company's Form
10-K, elsewhere in this report and from time to time in other filings made by
the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All subsequent written
and oral forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or persons
acting on its behalf are expressly qualified by the Cautionary Statements.

GENERAL

The Company's revenues, profitability, future growth and the carrying value of
its oil and gas properties are substantially dependent on prevailing prices of
oil and gas and its ability to find, develop and acquire additional oil and gas
reserves that are economically recoverable and its ability to develop existing
proved undeveloped reserves. The Company's ability to maintain or increase its
borrowing capacity and to obtain additional capital on attractive terms is also
influenced by oil and gas prices. Prices for oil and gas are subject to large
fluctuations in response to relatively minor changes in the supply of and demand
for oil and gas, market uncertainty and a variety of additional factors beyond
the control of the Company. These factors include weather conditions in the
United States, the condition of the United States economy, the actions of the
Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, governmental regulations,
political stability in the Middle East and elsewhere, the foreign supply of oil
and gas, the price of foreign imports and the availability of alternate fuel
sources. Any substantial and extended decline in the price of oil or gas would
have an adverse effect on the Company's carrying value of its proved reserves,
borrowing capacity, revenues, profitability and cash flows from operations. The
Company uses derivative financial instruments for price protection purposes on a
limited amount of its future production but, does not use derivative financial
instruments for trading purposes.

The following discussion is intended to assist in an understanding of the
Company's historical financial positions and results of operations. The
Company's historical financial statements and notes thereto included


10


elsewhere in this quarterly report contains detailed information that should be
referred to in conjunction with the following discussion.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's primary sources of capital are its cash flows from operations,
borrowings from financial institutions and the sale of debt and equity
securities. Net cash and cash equivalents during the six months ended June 30,
2002 increased by $8.0 million and net cash flows from operations before working
capital changes totaled $8.3 million. Net capital expenditures from the cash
flow statement for the period totaled $37.7 million. These funds were primarily
expended in exploration, drilling and completion of oil and gas properties.

At June 30, 2002, the Company had working capital of $11.0 million excluding
current maturities of long-term debt.

As discussed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K dated March 29, 2002,
the Company discussed its options with respect to the $36.0 million of the
10.125% Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Notes") that will mature on September
15, 2002 and increasing the availability of the Company's $75 million Credit
Facility with First Union National Bank (the "Credit Facility"). On July 9,
2002, the Company announced that the lenders under the Credit Facility have
agreed to increase availability under the revolving borrowing base from $50
million to $75 million. In addition, the holders of $15.9 million of the $36.0
million of the Notes have consented to an extension of such Notes until July 31,
2004. The Company granted 190,980 warrants with a fair market value of
approximately $965,000 to purchase Common Stock of the Company and consent fees
in the amount of $1.6 million to the holders of the notes that granted the
extensions. The Company is in ongoing negotiations for similar extensions with
the holders of $11.5 million of the Notes.

Non-discretionary capital expenditures include completion of the Medusa
deepwater discovery, currently scheduled to begin production in the first
quarter of 2003. The Company anticipates that cash flow generated during 2002
and current availability under the Credit Facility will provide necessary
capital to enable the Company to continue its operational activities until such
time as production from the Medusa discovery begins. At that time, the Company
anticipates that the Medusa reserves and production will be integrated into the
borrowing base of the Company's Credit Facility and will provide additional
available borrowing capacity. This increase in borrowing capacity as well as
significant additional cash flow from the new production will provide funds for
future discretionary capital expenditures.

In May 2001, the Company initiated a combination of offerings of equity and
senior notes to investors with proceeds to be used to call certain of the
Company's subordinated debt, repay borrowings under its senior secured credit
facility and to finance capital expenditures. Subsequently, the Company withdrew
its offer to sell the senior notes and the equity sale was terminated.
Approximately $358,000 of costs associated with the withdrawn offering was
expensed during the quarter.

In early July of 2001, the Company closed a $95 million multiple advance term
loan with a private lender. The Company drew $45 million on July 3, 2001 and
paid down its revolving Credit Facility. The Company subsequently drew the
remaining $50 million in late 2001. Under the terms of the agreement, Callon
also issued warrants for the purchase, at a nominal exercise price, of 265,210
shares of its common stock to the lender and conveyed an overriding royalty
interest equal to 2% of the company's net interest in four of its deepwater
discoveries. All amounts under the loan must be drawn before June 30, 2002. This
senior debt will mature March 31, 2005 and contains restrictions on certain
types of future indebtedness and dividends on common stock.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

Capital expenditures for exploration and development costs related to oil and
gas properties totaled approximately $36.1 million in the first six months of
2002. The Company incurred approximately $15.8 million in the Gulf of Mexico
Shelf Area, including $6.9 million related to the production facility under
construction in the first quarter of 2002 in the Mobile Block 952/953/955 area.

The Gulf of Mexico Deepwater area expenditures accounted for the remainder of
the total capital expended, primarily for additional development costs for
production facilities at the Company's Medusa discovery. Interest and general
and administrative costs allocable directly to exploration and development
projects were approximately $7.7 million for the first six months of 2002.

For the remainder of the year, the Company will continue evaluating property
acquisitions and drilling opportunities. The Company has forecasted up to $25.8
million in capital expenditures, including capitalized interest and capitalized
general and administrative expenses, for the remainder of 2002. The major
portion of the capital expenditure budget will be used for development of the
Company's Medusa discovery and developmental drilling at Boomslang.

associated with a volumetric production payment.

COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 AND
THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001.

Oil and Gas Production and Revenues

Total oil and gas revenues decreased 10% from $17.1 million in the second
quarter of 2001 to $15.3 million in the second quarter of 2002. Gas prices were
much lower while oil prices declined slightly when compared to the same period
in 2001. Total production for the second quarter of 2002 decreased by 1% versus
the second quarter of 2001.

Gas production during the second quarter of 2002 totaled 3.6 billion cubic feet
and generated $11.6 million in revenues compared to 3.5 billion cubic feet and
$15.3 million in revenues during the same period in 2001. The average sales
price for the second quarter of 2002 averaged $3.25 per thousand cubic feet
compared to $4.34 per thousand cubic feet for the second quarter of 2001. The
Company's gas production increased slightly when compared to the same quarter
last year.

Oil production during the second quarter of 2002 totaled 60,000 barrels and
generated $1.4 million in revenues compared to 69,000 barrels and $1.7 million
in revenues for the same period in 2001. Average oil prices received in the
second quarter of 2002 were $23.41 compared to $24.70 in 2001. The decline in
production was primarily due to expected production declines in some of the
Company's older producing properties.

Lease Operating Expenses

Lease operating expenses, including severance taxes, for the three-month period
ending June 30, 2002 were $2.8 million compared to $3.1 million for the same
period in 2001.

Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization

Depreciation, depletion and amortization for the three months ending June 30,
2002 and 2001 were $6.5 and $5.2 million, respectively. This increase is
primarily due to a higher average rate in the second quarter of 2002 as a result
of an increase in the amortization base due to higher drilling costs in
combination with reserve additions being less than expected in 2001.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expense decreased to $1.3 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to $1.6 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2001. This decrease was due primarily to the expense category
being higher in 2001 due to expenses incurred related to the withdrawn debt
offering in the second quarter of 2001.



13


Interest Expense

Interest expense increased from $2.6 million during the three months ended June
30, 2001 to $5.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2002. An
increase in the Company's long-term debt contributed to the greater interest
expense.

COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 AND
THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001.

Oil and Gas Production and Revenues

Total oil and gas revenues decreased 29% from $37.2 million in the first six
months of 2001 to $26.4 million in the first six months of 2002. Gas prices were
substantially lower and oil prices declined as well when compared to the same
period in 2001. Total production for the first six months of 2002 decreased by
5% versus the first six months of 2001.

Gas production during the first six months of 2002 totaled 6.6 billion cubic
feet and generated $18.5 million in revenues compared to 7.0 billion cubic feet
and $34.2 million in revenues during the same period in 2001. The average sales
price for the first six months of 2002 averaged $2.83 per thousand cubic feet
compared to $4.90 per thousand cubic feet for the first six months of 2001. The
Company's gas production decreased slightly when compared to the same period
last year as a result of expected and normal declines in maturing properties.

Oil production during the first six months of 2002 totaled 114,000 barrels and
generated $2.4 million in revenues compared to 120,000 barrels and $3.1 million
in revenues for the same period in 2001. Average oil prices received in the
first six months of 2002 were $21.16 compared to $25.52 in 2001. The decline in
production was primarily due to expected production declines in some of the
Company's older producing properties.

Lease Operating Expenses

Lease operating expenses, including severance taxes, for the six-month period
ending June 30, 2002 were $5.4 million compared to $5.7 million for the same
period in 2001.

Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization

Depreciation, depletion and amortization for the six months ending June 30, 2002
and 2001 were $12.1 and $10.1 million, respectively. This increase is primarily
due to a higher average rate in the first six months of 2002 as a result of an
increase in the amortization base due to higher drilling costs in combination
with reserve additions being less than expected in 2001.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expense decreased to $2.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2002 as compared to $2.7 million for the six months ended June
30, 2001. This decrease was, in part, due to the expense category being higher
in 2001 due to expenses incurred related to the withdrawn debt offering in the
second quarter of 2001.



14


Interest Expense

Interest expense increased from $5.2 million during the six months ended June
30, 2001 to $11.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2002. An increase
in the Company's long-term debt contributed to the greater interest expense.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company's revenues are derived from the sale of its crude oil and natural
gas production. In recent months, the prices for oil and gas have decreased;
however, they remain extremely volatile and sometimes experience large
fluctuations as a result of relatively small changes in supplies, weather
conditions, economic conditions and government actions. The Company enters into
derivative financial instruments to hedge oil and gas price risks for the
production volumes to which the hedge relates. The derivatives reduce the
Company's exposure on the hedged volumes to decreases in commodity prices and
limit the benefit the Company might otherwise have received from any increases
in commodity prices on the hedged volumes.

The Company also enters into price "collars" to reduce the risk of changes in
oil and gas prices. Under these arrangements, no payments are due by either
party so long as the market price is above the floor price set in the collar and
below the ceiling. If the price falls below the floor, the counter-party to the
collar pays the difference to the Company and if the price is above the ceiling,
the counter-party receives the difference from the Company. The Company enters
into these various agreements to reduce the effects of volatile oil and gas
prices and does not enter into hedge transactions for speculative purposes. See
Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of the
Company's hedged position at June 30, 2002. There have been no significant
changes in market risks faced by the Company since the end of 2001.
