prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange

in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in
Comstock's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

     The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2002 are not

     Earnings Per Share -

     Basic earnings per share is determined without the effect of any
outstanding potentially dilutive stock options or other convertible securities
and diluted earnings per share is determined with the effect of outstanding
stock options and other convertible securities that are potentially dilutive.
Due to the net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2002, common stock
equivalents and convertible securities are anti- dilutive. Therefore basic and
diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2002 are the same.
Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2002
and 2001 were determined as follows:

     Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

     Comstock uses swaps, floors and collars to hedge oil and natural gas
prices. Swaps are settled monthly based on differences between the prices
specified in the instruments and the settlement prices of futures contracts
quoted on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Generally, when the applicable
settlement price is less than the price specified in the contract, Comstock
receives a settlement from the counterparty based on the difference multiplied
by the volume hedge. Similarly, when the applicable settlement price exceeds the
price specified in the contract, Comstock pays the counterparty based on the
difference. Comstock generally receives a settlement from the counterparty for
floors when the applicable settlement price is less than the price specified in
the contract, which is based on the difference multiplied by the volumes hedged.
For collars, Comstock generally receives a settlement from the counterparty when
the settlement price is below the floor and pays a settlement to the
counterparty when the settlement price exceeds the cap. No settlement occurs
when the settlement price falls between the floor and cap.

     In March 2002, Comstock entered into natural gas price swaps covering
10,640,000 MMbtus of its natural gas production at an average price of $3.46.
Comstock has designated these positions as cash flow hedges.

     The following table sets out the derivative financial instruments
outstanding at March 31, 2002, which are held for natural gas price risk
management:

     The counterparty for the $1.90 floor position and $2.40 swap price position
is a subsidiary of Enron Corporation which has filed for bankruptcy protection.
The net liability owed to Enron as of March 31, 2002 was $3.0 million. Comstock
intends to monitor this position and will assess the credit exposure to the
extent this position becomes a net asset. These positions together with the
other floor and collar postions have not been designated as cash flow hedges.

                                   (continued)


     Comstock periodically enters into interest rate swap agreements to hedge
the impact of interest rate changes on its floating rate long-term debt. As of
March 31, 2002, Comstock had an interest rate swap agreement covering $25.0
million of its floating rate debt, which fixed the LIBOR rate at 4.5% for the
period through April 2002. Comstock has designated this position as a hedge. As
a result of certain hedging transactions for interest rates, Comstock has
realized losses of $159,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 which were
included in interest expense.

     The fair value of all derivative financial instruments is included on the
consolidated balance sheet at the fair value. Comstock estimates fair value
based on quotes obtained from the counterparties to the derivative contract. The
fair value of derivative contracts that expire in less than one year are
recognized as current assets or liabilities. Those that expire in more than one
year are recognized as long-term assets or liabilities. Derivative financial
instruments that are not accounted for as hedges are adjusted to fair value
through income. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, changes in
fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is
recognized in earnings.

     The change in fair value of the derivative contracts not accounted for
hedges resulted in a loss of $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31,
2002. The loss on derivatives was comprised of a $2.4 million unrealized loss
and a $392,000 realized gain. For the derivative contracts designated as cash
flow hedges, the change in fair value of these instruments resulted in an
unrealized after tax gain of $654,000 which was recognized in other
comprehensive income.

(2)  LONG-TERM DEBT -

     As of March 31, 2002, Comstock's long-term debt was comprised of the
following:

                                                      ===========

     Comstock's bank credit facility consists of a $350.0 million three-year
revolving credit commitment provided by a syndicate of banks for which Toronto
Dominion (Texas), Inc. serves as administrative agent. The credit facility is
subject to borrowing base availability, which is redetermined semiannually based
on the banks' estimates of the future net cash flows of Comstock's oil and
natural gas properties. The borrowing base at March 31, 2002 was $240.0 million.
The revolving credit line bears interest, based on the utilization of the
borrowing base, at the option of Comstock at either (i) LIBOR plus 1.5% to
2.375% or (ii) the base rate plus 0.5% to 1.375%. The facility matures on
January 2, 2005. Indebtedness under the bank credit facility is secured by
substantially all of Comstock's assets. The bank credit facility contains
covenants that, among other things, restrict the payment of cash dividends,
limit the amount of consolidated debt and limit Comstock's ability to make
certain loans and investments. Financial covenants include the maintenance of a
current ratio, maintenance of tangible net worth and maintenance of an interest
coverage ratio. Comstock was in compliance with all the covenants during the
three months ended March 31, 2002.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (continued)


     Comstock issued $150.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 11 1/4%
Senior Notes due in 2007 (the "Notes") on April 29, 1999. Interest on the Notes
is payable semiannually on May 1 and November 1, commencing on November 1, 1999.
The Notes are unsecured obligations of Comstock. Comstock repurchased $5.0
million of the Notes in July 2001. The Notes can be redeemed beginning on May 1,
2004.

     On March 7, 2002, Comstock closed on a private placement of $75.0 million
of the Notes at a net price of 97.25% after placements agents' discount. As a
result of this transaction, $220.0 million of the aggregate principal amount of
the Notes was outstanding. The net proceeds were used to reduce amounts
outstanding under the bank credit facility.

(3)  DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS -

     In April 2002, Comstock sold certain marginal oil and gas properties for
cash proceeds of $300,000 plus forgiveness of certain accounts payable related
to the properties. The properties sold include various interests in nonoperated
properties in Nueces, Hardeman and Montague counties in Texas. These properties
had become unprofitable for Comstock. The properties sold were written down to
the net realizable value in March 2002 resulting in a loss of $769,000, net of
income taxes and have been presented as discontinued operations in the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

                     INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT




The Board of Directors and Shareholders
of Comstock Resources, Inc.:

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Comstock
Resources, Inc. and subsidiaries (a Nevada corporation) as of March 31, 2002,
and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and
cash flows for the three-month period then ended. These consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial
data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the
expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to
be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.

     Revenues -

     Our oil and gas sales decreased $40.6 million (60%) in the first quarter of
2002, to $26.7 million from $67.3 million in 2001's first quarter due to a
significant drop in our realized crude oil and natural gas prices. Our average
crude oil price fell by 27% and our average natural gas price decreased by 68%
in the first quarter of 2002 as compared to 2001. Production in the first
quarter of 2002 increased 14% over production in the fourth quarter of 2001 and
4% over production in the first quarter of 2001.

     Other income decreased to $120,000 in the first quarter of 2002 as compared
to $147,000 in 2001's first quarter, primarily due to a decrease in interest
earned on short-term cash deposits.

     Costs and Expenses -

     Oil and gas operating expenses, including production taxes, decreased $1.3
million (14%) to $8.1 million in the first quarter of 2002 from $9.4 million in
the first quarter of 2001. Oil and gas operating expenses per equivalent Mcf
produced decreased $0.16 to $0.79 in the first quarter of 2002 from $0.95 in the
first quarter of 2001. The decrease in operating expenses is due to lower
production taxes as a result of the significantly lower crude oil and natural
gas prices.

     In the first quarter of 2002, we had a $2.0 million provision for
exploration expense as compared to a $2.8 million provision for exploration in
2001's first quarter. The provision in the first quarter of 2002 primarily
relates to an exploratory well drilled at South Timbalier Block 30, which was
abandoned after numerous drilling problems were encountered culminating with the
drill pipe being stuck. Approximately 43 net feet of productive pay had been
discovered prior to the well being lost. We plan to redrill this prospect
pending the results from other exploration activity in this block.


                                       14





     Depreciation, depletion and amortization ("DD&A") increased $1.6 million
(13%) to $13.6 million in the first quarter of 2002 from $12.0 million in the
first quarter of 2001 due to the 4% increase in oil and natural gas production
and an increase in our DD&A rate. DD&A per equivalent Mcf produced increased by
$0.11 to $1.28 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $1.17 for the
three months ended March 31, 2001.

     General and administrative expenses, which are reported net of overhead
reimbursements, of $930,000 for the first quarter of 2002 were 12% higher than
general and administrative expenses of $829,000 for the first quarter of 2001
due primarily to an increase in personnel costs in 2002.

     Interest expense increased $1.3 million (24%) to $6.8 million for the first
quarter of 2002 from $5.5 million for the first quarter of 2001. The increase is
attributable to higher borrowings outstanding under our bank credit facility and
the issuance of an additional $75.0 million of our 11 1/4% Senior Notes on March
7, 2002. The average outstanding balance under our bank credit facility
increased to $200.1 million in the first quarter of 2002 as compared to $70.5
million in the first quarter of 2001. The higher debt was offset partially by a
lower interest rate on our bank credit facility. The weighted average annual
interest rate for borrowings under our bank credit facility decreased to 4.1%
for the first quarter of 2002 as compared to 7.2% for the same period in 2001.

     Comstock reported a net loss from continuing operations of $4.7 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2002, as compared to net income from continuing
operations of $23.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001. Net loss
per share from continuing operations for the first quarter was $0.16 on weighted
average shares outstanding of 28.6 million as compared to net income per share
from continuing operations of $0.68 for the first quarter of 2001 on weighted
average diluted shares outstanding of 35.1 million.

     In April 2002, we sold certain marginal oil and gas properties, which
resulted in a loss of $1.2 million. The operating results of these properties
have been reflected as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial
statements including the expected loss on disposal.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Funding for our activities has historically been provided by our operating
cash flow, debt or equity financings or asset dispositions. For the three months
ended March 31, 2002, our net cash flow provided by operating activities before
changes to other working capital accounts totaled $11.3 million. Our other
primary funding sources in the first quarter of 2002 were borrowings of $6.0
million under our bank credit facility and proceeds of $72.8 million received
from the issuance of our 11 1/4% Senior Notes.

     Our primary needs for capital, in addition to funding our ongoing
operations, relate to the acquisition, development and exploration of our oil
and gas properties and the repayment of our debt. In the first quarter of 2002,
we incurred capital expenditures of $15.7 million for development and
exploration activities. We also repaid $75.0 million of borrowings under our
bank credit facility.

                                       15





     The following table summarizes our capital expenditure activity for the
three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001:

                                                $15,721   $27,973
                                                =======   =======

     The timing of most of our capital expenditures is discretionary because we
have no material long-term capital expenditure commitments. Consequently, we
have a significant degree of flexibility to adjust the level of our capital
expenditures as circumstances warrant. We spent $15.7 million and $27.9 million
on development and exploration activities in the three months ended March 31,
2002 and 2001, respectively. We have budgeted approximately $75.0 million for
development and exploration projects in 2002. We expect to use internally
generated cash flow to fund development and exploration activity.

     We do not have a specific acquisition budget for 2002 since the timing and
size of acquisitions are not predictable. We intend to use borrowings under our
bank credit facility, or other debt or equity financings to the extent
available, to finance significant acquisitions. The availability and
attractiveness of these sources of financing will depend upon a number of
factors, some of which will relate to our financial condition and performance
and some of which will be beyond our control, such as prevailing interest rates,
oil and natural gas prices and other market conditions.

     On December 17, 2001, we entered into a new three year $350.0 million
revolving credit facility with Toronto Dominion (Texas), Inc. as administrative
agent. Indebtedness under the new bank credit facility is secured by
substantially all of our assets. The revolving credit line is subject to
borrowing base availability, which will be redetermined semiannually based on
the banks' estimates of the future net cash flows of our oil and gas properties.
The current borrowing base is $240.0 million. The borrowing base may be affected
by the performance of our properties and changes in oil and gas prices. The
determination of the borrowing base is at the sole discretion of the
administrative agent and the bank group. The revolving credit line bears
interest, based on the utilization of the borrowing base, at our option at
either (i) LIBOR plus 1.5% to 2.375% or (ii) the base rate plus 0.5% to 1.375%.
The bank credit facility matures on January 2, 2005 and contains covenants that,
among other things, restrict our ability to pay cash dividends, limit the amount
of our consolidated debt and limit our ability to make certain loans and
investments. Financial covenants include the maintenance of a current ratio,
maintenance of tangible net worth and maintenance of an interest coverage ratio.

     On March 7, 2002, we closed the sale in a private placement of $75.0
million of our 11 1/4% Senior Notes due 2007 (the "Notes") at a net price of
97.25% after the placements agents' discount. As a result of this transaction,
$220.0 million of aggregate principal amount of the Notes were outstanding. The
net proceeds were used to reduce amounts outstanding under our bank credit
facility.

     We believe that our cash flow from operations and our available borrowings
under the new bank credit facility will be sufficient to fund our operations and
future growth as contemplated under our current business plan. However, if our
plans or assumptions change or if our assumptions prove to be inaccurate, we may
be required to seek additional capital. We cannot provide any assurance that we
will be able to obtain such capital, or if such capital is available, that we
will be able to obtain it on acceptable terms.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISKS

     Oil and Natural Gas Prices

     Our financial condition, results of operations and capital resources are
highly dependent upon the prevailing market prices of oil and natural gas. These
commodity prices are subject to wide fluctuations and market uncertainties due
to a variety of factors that are beyond our control. Factors influencing oil and
natural gas prices include the level of global demand for crude oil, the foreign
supply of oil and natural gas, the establishment of and compliance with
production quotas by oil exporting countries, weather conditions that determine
the demand for natural gas, the price and availability of alternative fuels and
overall economic conditions. It is impossible to predict future oil and natural
gas prices with any degree of certainty. Sustained weakness in oil and natural
gas prices may adversely affect our financial condition and results of
operations, and may also reduce the amount of oil and natural gas reserves that
we can produce economically. Any reduction in our oil and natural gas reserves,
including reductions due to price fluctuations, can have an adverse effect on
our ability to obtain capital for our exploration and development activities.
Similarly, any improvements in oil and natural gas prices can have a favorable
impact on our financial condition, results of operations and capital resources.
Based on our oil and natural gas production in the three months ended March 31,
2002, a $1.00 change in the price per barrel of oil would have resulted in a
change in our cash flow for such period by approximately $0.3 million and a
$1.00 change in the price per Mcf of natural gas would have changed our cash
flow by approximately $7.4 million.

     We periodically use hedging transactions with respect to a portion of our
oil and natural gas production to mitigate our exposure to price changes. While
the use of these hedging arrangements limits the downside risk of price
declines, such use may also limit any benefits that may be derived from price
increases. We use swaps, floors and collars to hedge oil and natural gas prices.
Swaps are settled monthly based on differences between the prices specified in
the instruments and the settlement prices of futures contracts quoted on the New
York Mercantile Exchange. Generally, when the applicable settlement price is
less than the price specified in the contract, we receive a settlement from the
counterparty based on the difference multiplied by the volume hedge. Similarly,
when the applicable settlement price exceeds the price specified in the
contract, we pay the counterparty based on the difference. We generally receive
a settlement from the counterparty for floors when the applicable settlement
price is less than the price specified in the contract, which is based on the
difference multiplied by the volumes hedged. For collars, we generally receive a
settlement from the counterparty when the settlement price is below the floor
and pay a settlement to the counterparty when the settlement price exceeds the
cap. No settlement occurs when the settlement price falls between the floor and
cap.

     In March 2002, we hedged a portion of our natural gas production for the
period April 2002 through October 2002 in order to increase the predictability
of our cash flow from operations in order to support our planned 2002 drilling
program. The hedges cover approximately 45% to 50% of our expected 2002 natural
gas production from April 2002 to October 2002. We entered into price swaps
covering 50 MMBtus per day of our natural gas production at an average price of
$3.46. The price swaps will be settled using the closing index price for natural
gas delivered to the Houston Ship Channel for 38.2 MMBtus per day and the
closing contract price for natural gas delivered to the Henry Hub on the New
York Mercantile Exchange for 11.8 MMBtus per day.

     The counterparty for the $1.90 floor position and $2.40 swap price position
is a subsidiary of Enron Corporation, which has filed for bankruptcy protection.
The net liability owed to Enron as of March 31, 2002 was $3.0 million. We intend
to monitor this position and will assess the credit exposure to the extent this
position becomes a net asset.

     The fair value of the commodity price derivative financial instruments at
March 31, 2002 was a net liability of $1.5 million. Certain of the positions
have not designated as cash flow hedges. Changes in fair value of the derivative
financial instruments not designated as cash flow hedges are recorded in
earnings.

Interest Rates

     At March 31, 2002, we had long-term debt of $378.0 million. Of this amount,
$220.0 million bears interest at a fixed rate of 11 1/4%. We had $158.0 million
outstanding under our revolving bank credit facility, which is subject to
floating market rates of interest. Borrowings under the bank credit facility
bear interest at a fluctuating rate that is linked to LIBOR or the corporate
base rate, at our option. Any increases in these interest rates can have an
adverse impact on our results of operations and cash flow. In March 2001, we
entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge the impact of interest
rate changes on $25.0 million of our floating rate debt beginning on April 30,
2001 and expiring on April 30, 2002. As a result of this interest rate swap, we
realized a loss of $159,000 in the first quarter of 2002. The fair value of this
interest rate derivative financial instrument was a net liability of $59,000 at
March 31, 2002.
