ACCOUNTANT'S REVIEW REPORT

Board of Directors
Gladstone Energy, Inc.
Dallas, Texas

I have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Gladstone Energy, Inc., as of
March 31, 2001, and the related statements of operation, stockholders' equity and
changes in cash flows for the three months then ended and statements of operation
and changes in cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2000, in accordance
with the Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. All information included in these
statements is the representation of the management of Gladstone Energy, Inc.

A   review consists   principally of   inquiries of   Company personnel and
analytical   procedures applied to financial data.   It is substantially less in scope
than an audit in   accordance with   generally    accepted auditing standards, the
objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements
as a whole.   Accordingly, I do not express such an opinion.

Based on my review, I am not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2000, were audited
by me and I expressed an unqualified opinion on them in my report dated March 9,
2001, but I have not performed any auditing procedures since that date.

GLADSTONE ENERGY, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
March 31, 2001

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION

     Gladstone Energy, Inc. (f/k/a Gladstone Resources, Inc.) (the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Washington on July 19, 1916. The Company sells oil and gas in Louisiana, Texas and New Mexico. As of
August 10, 1999, the Company merged its wholly owned subsidiary into the parent company. As of August 12, 1999, the Company reorganized under Code Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 changing its jurisdiction of incorporation from Washington to Delaware and changing its name to Gladstone Energy, Inc. The Company is planning a complete liquidation during the next quarter of 2001.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     On an accrual basis, the Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas properties. This method follows the premise that an enterprise is to capitalize only those costs it incurs that directly result in an asset that has future benefits measured in terms of future cash flows.

     For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term debt securities purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents at March 31, 2001, or December 31, 2000. There were no significant non-cash investing or financing activities during the periods ended March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000.

     Depreciation, depletion and amortization are calculated using the straight-line and unit of production method over the estimated useful lives of the assets or production of the estimated recoverable oil and gas reserves.

     For income tax reporting, the Company uses accounting methods that recognize depreciation sooner than for financial statement reporting As a result, the basis of property and equipment for financial reporting exceeds its tax basis by the cumulative amount that accelerated depreciation exceeds straight-line depreciation. Also, for tax purposes the Company deducts intangible drilling costs and capitalizes them on the successful efforts accounting method. Deferred income taxes had been recorded in prior years for the excess deductions, which will be taxable in future periods through reduced depreciation and cost depletion deductions for tax purposes. Currently the Company has not assigned any future tax benefits to the accumulated losses.

     Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were used.

NOTE 3 - ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

     The sales to the customers are on open accounts receivable, which are unsecured.

NOTE 4 - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Gas and oil properties

     Currently, the Company does not own any oil and gas properties or equipment. All properties were sold in 1999 and 2000.

     A summary of changes in the Company's gas reserves (in MCF's) is as follows (oil reserves have been included as MCF's by multiplying barrels by 6). ALL RESERVE AMOUNTS, INCLUDING THE REVISIONS, HAVE BEEN FURNISHED BY THE COMPANY MANAGEMENT AND HAVE NOT BEEN VERIFIED BY ANY INDEPENDENT PETROLEUM ENGINEERS. The Company believes there are no "proved undeveloped reserves" at March 31, 2001.

		Total for United States in MCF's
		March 31, 2001	December 31, 2000 (1)
Beginning of period (January 1)		-	644,895
Deduction for sale of leases		-	(565,449)
Production (total to date)		-	(79,446 )
Balance at end of period		-	-

(1)	Based on reevaluation of estimated reserves by the Company. The estimates were based on current production levels of all properties.

NOTE 5 - FEDERAL AND STATE INCOME TAXES

A reconciliation of income tax expense computed by applying the U.S. federal and state income tax rates to income from continuing operations before income taxes and extraordinary items and the recorded income tax expense is as follows:

	2001	2000
Tax expense at statutory rates	$ 2,675	$ 26,862
	_______	_______
	$ 2,675	$ 26,862

     There were no deferred income taxes at March 31, 2001 or December 31, 2000. The Company has statutory depletion carry over of $207,708 at December 31, 2000 and $174,582 at March 31, 2001. The deduction is limited to 65% of taxable income before depletion expense deductions. No deferred tax benefit has been recorded for possible use of the depletion due to its limitations.

NOTE 6 - COMMITMENT AND CONTINGENCY

     At March 31, 2001, the Company had no material commitments. Currently, the Company is planning to liquidate all assets and distribute all cash to the shareholders for a 100% redemption of shares outstanding.

NOTE 7 - COMMON STOCK

     Currently the Company's common stock is not traded on any exchange or automated quotation system.

     At March 31, 2001, there were no outstanding stock options issued by the Company.

	March 31, 2001	December 31, 2000
Common stock, $.001 par value	848,782	848,782

At the Annual Shareholders' Meeting, held on July 15, 1999, a one for five reverse split was approved, which was effected August 10, 1999. All share and per share numbers have been adjusted retroactively to record the effects of the reverse split.

Reference is made to "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Forward-Looking Information - Cautionary Statements" included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Overview

During the third and fourth quarters of 2000, the Company sold all of its oil and gas properties, which constituted substantially all of its operating assets, for cash. The Company's Board of Directors has determined that it is advisable to dissolve the Company. The Company has filed a Preliminary Proxy Statement for a meeting of stockholders to consider a plan of liquidation and dissolution of the Company. The Company has converted its marketable securities held at March 31, 2001 to cash and expects to maintain its assets in cash in anticipation of the approval by the stockholders of the plan of liquidation and dissolution of the Company.

The sale of substantially all of the Company's operating assets had an effect upon the comparative results of operations in terms of net income, revenues, costs and expenses and other income referred to in the following analysis.

Results of Operations - Comparison of Three Month Periods Ended March 31, 2001 and 2000

Net Income (Loss)
. The Company had net income for the three month period ended March 31, 2001 of $48,288 compared to the net loss of ($90,144) for the corresponding period of 2000, representing $.06 per share for the period in 2001 and ($.11) per share for the same period in 2000.

Revenues
. As a result of the sale of all of the Company's oil and gas properties in 2000 for cash, the Company had no revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 2001 compared with $82,564 for the corresponding period in 2000, a 100% decrease.

Costs and Expenses
. Costs and expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2001 decreased $151,016, or 87%, to $21,708 versus $172,724 for the corresponding period of 2000. General and administrative expenses decreased $10,631, or 49 % to 10,877, from $21,508 for the corresponding period of 2000 as a result of the sale of all oil and gas properties that reduced the level of such services that are required by the Company. Legal, auditing, and accounting fees decreased $6,191, or 57%, from $10,776 for the three month period ended March 31, 2000 to $4,585 for the same period in 2001 as a result of the sale of all oil and gas properties in 2000 that reduced the levels of such services that are required by the Company.

Other Income
. Other income, consisting of unrealized gains on marketable securities, and interest and dividend income, increased by $56,350 and $16,275, respectively, from $-0- and $16, as a result of the cash and the marketable securities acquired from a portion of the cash received from the sales of the Company's oil and gas properties in 2000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
. Cash increased $7,917 to $592,977 at March 31, 2001, from $585,060 at December 31, 2000, as a result of the interest and dividends. Accounts receivable decreased $23,750 to $59 from $23,809 during the three months ended March 31, 2001 and accounts payable decreased $4,118 to $73 from $4,191 during the three months ended March 31, 2001. The decrease in accounts receivable resulted from the sale of all oil and gas properties, as a result of which accrual of revenue also ceased. The decrease in accounts payable is primarily due to the termination of all operations which resulted in substantial decreases in operating expenses and related accruals.

Earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization ("EBITDA") for the three month period ended March 31, 2001 was ($15,462) or (.02) per share for the three month period in 2001 compared to ($56,932), or ($.11) per share for the same period in 2000.

For the three months ended March 31, 2001, net cash from operating activities was $7,917 compared to $68,619 used for the three months ended March 31, 2000. Cash from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2001, was from collection of accounts receivable.

The Company anticipates that its existing cash will be sufficient to maintain its administrative operations until the expected adoption of the plan of liquidation and dissolution.

Inflation and Changing Prices

The impact of inflation, as always, is difficult to assess. The Company cannot anticipate where cost and revenue trends will head; however, a sudden increase in inflation could have an adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company.

Part II. Other Information

Item 3. Quantitative And Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We currently do not engage in commodity futures trading or hedging activities and do not enter into derivative financial instrument transactions for trading or other speculative purposes. We also do not currently engage in transactions in foreign currencies or in interest rate swap transactions that could expose us to market risk.

We may be exposed, in the normal course of doing business, to market risk through changes in interest rates as such changes may affect the price of the marketable securities held at March 31, 2001.
