Barnwell Industries (BRN)

We actively explore for oil and natural gas reserves.  However, future exploration and drilling results are uncertain and may involve substantial costs.  Despite this uncertainty or potential cost, discoveries or acquisitions of additional reserves are needed to avoid a material decline in reserves and production.  As a result, future oil and natural gas reserves may be dependent on our success in exploiting existing properties and acquiring additional reserves.  If our access to capital becomes limited or unavailable, our ability to make the necessary capital investments to maintain or expand our oil and gas reserves will be impaired.  Additionally, we cannot guarantee that we will be successful in developing additional reserves or acquiring additional reserves on terms that meet our investment objectives.  Without these reserve additions, our reserves will deplete and as a consequence, either production from, or the average reserve life of, our properties will decline.
