  We consider the class $\Sigma(p)$ of univalent meromorphic functions $f$ on
$\ID$ having simple pole at $z=p\in[0,1)$ with residue 1. Let $\Sigma_k(p)$ be
the class of functions in $\Sigma(p)$ which have $k$-quasiconformal extension
to the extended complex plane $\sphere$ %with $q=\frac{1+k}{1-k}$ where $0\leq
k < 1$. We first give a representation formula for functions in this class and
using this formula we derive an asymptotic estimate of the Laurent coefficients
for the functions in the class $\Sigma_k(p)$. Thereafter we give a sufficient
condition for functions in $\Sigma(p)$ to belong in the class $\Sigma_k(p).$
Finally we obtain a sharp distortion result for functions in $\Sigma(p)$ and as
a consequence, we get a distortion estimate for functions in $\Sigma_k(p).$
