                         PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION


ITEM 1 -       Financial Statements

The information  required by Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B is attached hereto as
Exhibit A.

Item 2 -       Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

On November 10, 1995, the  shareholders of Humboldt Bank (the "Bank") approved a
Plan of  Reorganization  by and between the Bank,  Humboldt  Merger  Company and
Humboldt  Bancorp  (the  "Company")  whereby  the Bank  became  a  wholly  owned
subsidary of the Company.  The reorganization  became effective January 2, 1996.
On April 1, 1998,  Bancorp Financial  Services,  a small ticket leasing company,
jointly owned by Humboldt Bank and Tehema Bank, was transferred from the Bank to
the  Company.  The business  operation  of the Company is conducted  through its
wholly owned  subsidary,  Humboldt Bank, and through a 50% ownership with Tehema
Bank of Bancorp Financial Services. Therefore the following discussion, covering
the nine  months  period  ended  September  30,  1998,  analyzes  the  financial
condition  and  results of  operations  of both the Bank and  Bancorp  Financial
Services on a  consolidated  basis.  Prior to 1996,  the Bank filed its periodic
reports  under the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934 with the  Federal  Reserve
Board.

Changes in Financial Condition

During the nine month period ended September 30, 1998,  deposits increased $22.1
million or 8.7% to $277.3 million. During the same period, total loans increased
$20.6  million  or 12.9% to $180.4  million,  as a result of  increases  in real
estate loans,  commercial  industrial and  agricultural  loans,  lease financing
loans and other loans, which increases were partially offset by a small decrease
in consumer loans.  Loans held for sale increased $3.2 million.  The increase in
deposits and loans is attributable to internal  factors and is not the result of
acquisitions.

At September 30, 1998, deposits had increased $28.5 million or 11.4% from $248.8
million at September 30, 1997.  Total loans had increased $23.3 million or 14.8%
from $157.1 million at September 30, 1997. The increase in deposits and loans is
attributable to internal factors and is not the result of acquisitions.

At September 30, 1998,  investment securities had decreased $0.7 million or 0.9%
to $79.4 million.  The small decrease is  attributable to an increase in federal
funds sold.  Excess  funds  continue to be invested in federal  funds on a daily
basis.

At September  30, 1998,  investments  had  increased  $8.2 million or 11.6% from
$71.2 million at September 30, 1997. The increase in investments is attributable
to deposits  increasing more than loans and to a small decrease in federal funds
sold.

During the nine month period ending September 30, 1998, past due and non-accrual
loans  decreased  to $1.8 million  (0.6% of total  assets),  compared  with $3.1
million (1.1% of total assets) at December 31,

<PAGE>3


1997. The Company's  allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1998 was 1.5% of
loans and leases which compared with 1.5% at December 31, 1997.

At September 30,1998,  past due and non-accrual loans had decreased $0.7 million
or 28.0% from $2.5 million at September 30, 1997.  The  Company's  allowance for
loan losses at September  30, 1998 was 1.5% of loans and leases  which  compared
with 1.4% at September 30, 1997.

Earnings Summary

Net income for the nine months ended  September 30, 1998 was $2,811,000 or $1.59
per share (diluted  $1.38 per share),  compared with net income of $2,109,000 or
$1.23 per share  (diluted  $1.07 per share) in the same period a year ago.  This
can be attributed to increases in interest  income  ($3,292,000  or 22.7%),  and
increases in non-interest  income  ($3,157,000  or 57.9%) offset by increases in
interest  expense  ($884,000  or  17.8%),  loan loss  provision  ($1,076,000  or
231.4%),  non-interest expenses ($3,038,000 or 26.6%), taxes ($647,000 or 60.3%)
and a decrease in realized gain on sale of securities ($102,000 or 100%).

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 1998 was $1,108,000 or $0.63
per share  (diluted  $0.54 per share),  compared  with net income of $773,000 or
$0.46 per share  (diluted $0.39 per share) in the same three month period a year
ago. This can be attributed to increases in interest income ($708,000 or 13.2%),
and increases in non-interest income ($1,359,000 or 67.5%),  offset by increases
in  interest  expense  ($123,000  or 6.7%),  loan loss  provision  ($402,000  or
349.6%),  non-interest expenses  ($830,000 or 19.0%),  taxes ($321,000 or 93.3%)
and a decrease in realized gain on sale of securities ($56,000 or 100%).

Net Interest Income

Total interest  income  increased  $3,292,000 or 22.7% for the nine months ended
September  30,  1998,  compared  with the prior  year.  During the same  period,
interest expense  increased  $884,000 or 17.8%. Net interest income for the nine
months  ended  September  30, 1998 was $11.9  million  and $9.5  million for the
period ended  September  30, 1997.  Average  loans and leases as a percentage of
average  earning  assets was 65.1%  during the nine months ended  September  30,
1998,  compared with 69.9% a year earlier.  The average balance of other earning
assets as a  percentage  of average  earning  assets  was 34.9%  during the nine
months ended September 30, 1998, compared with 30.1% a year earlier.

Total  interest  income  increased  $708,000 or 13.2% for the three months ended
September 30, 1998,  and interest  expense  increased  $123,000 or 6.7% compared
with the same three month period in the prior year. Net interest  income for the
three months ended  September 30, 1998 was $4.1 million and $3.5 million for the
three  months ended  September  30,  1997.  The  increase in interest  income is
attributable to increased interest and fees on loans ($ 0.8 million),  offset by
small  decreases  in interest on deposits in banks,  interest  and  dividends on
securities  and  interest  on  federal  funds  sold ($ 0.1  million).  The small
increase in interest  expense is  attributable  to increases in interest on time
deposits of  $100,000 or more,  interest  on other  borrowings  and  interest on
demand  deposits  ($ 0.2  million)  offset by  decreases  in interest on savings
deposits and all other time deposits ($ 0.1 million).

Provision for Loan Losses

The  Company  maintains  its  allowance  for loan  losses at a level  considered
appropriate  by management  to provide for known and inherent  risks in the loan
portfolio.   This  consideration  includes  an  evaluation  of  various  factors
affecting the collectability of loans,  including current and projected economic
conditions,  past credit  experience and a periodic review of the Company's loan
portfolio.  The  Company's  provision for loan losses for the nine months period
ended September 30, 1998 increased  $1,076,000 compared to a decrease of $74,000
for the same period in 1997.  Loans  charged  off during the nine months  period
totaled  $1,279,000 in 1998 and $423,000 in 1997.  Recoveries in the same period
were $147,000 in 1998 and $45,000 in 1997.

The  Company's  provision  for loan  losses  for the three  month  period  ended
September 30, 1998 increased $402,000 or 349.6% compared with the same period in
1997.  Loans charged off during the three month period totaled  $413,000 in 1998
and  $318,000 in 1997.  Recoveries  in the same period were  $40,000 in 1998 and
$17,000 in 1997.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest  income  consists of gain/loss  on sale of loans and fixed  assets,
service charges on deposit accounts and other service  charges,  commissions and
fees  including  Lease  Department,  Merchant  Bankcard  Department  and Issuing
Bankcard  Department income. In the nine months ended September 30, 1998, income
from these  sources was $8.6 million,  an increase of  $3,157,000  from the same
period in 1997. The increase was attributable primarily to increases in Merchant
Bankcard  Department income ($1.3 million),  Issuing Bankcard  Department income
($0.3  million),  Lease  Department  income ($0.3  million),  service charges on
deposits ($0.8 million), and other non interest income ($0.5 million)

In the three  months ended  September  30,  1998,  non-interest  income was $3.4
million, an increase of $1,359,000 from the same period in 1997. The increase is
attributable primarily to increases in Merchant Bankcard Department income ($0.7
million),  Issuing Bankcard Department income ($0.1 million), service charges on
deposits ($0.2 million), and other non-interest income ($0.4 million)

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest  expenses  increased $3.0 million or 26.6% to $14.5 million for the
nine months ended  September 30, 1998,  compared to the same period in 1997. The
increase is attributable to increased  personnel expenses  ($1.8million),  fixed
asset expense ($0.2  million),  and other non interest  expenses  ($1.0 million)
which include increases in Merchant Bankcard  Department  expense ($1.1 million)
Card service expense ($0.3 million), Postage expense ($0.1 million),  Stationery
and Supply expense ($0.1 million) and a decrease in Issuing Bankcard  Department
expense ($0.6 million).

Non-interest  expenses  increased  $0.8 million or 19.0% to $5.2 million for the
three months ended  September  30, 1998,  compared with the same period in 1997.
The increase is attributable to increased personnel expenses ($0.7 million), and
other non-interest  expenses ($0.1 million) which include  increases in Merchant
Bankcard  Department  expense ($0.6  million) and decreases in Issuing  Bankcard
Department  expense ($0.4 million) and other outside services of ($0.1 million).

Number of Employees

At  September  30,  1998,  the Company had a total of 257  full-time  equivalent
employees,  compared to 209 full-time  equivalent employees at the same period a
year earlier.

In the three months ended  September 30 1998, the number of full-time equivalent
employees increased by 9 compared with 6 in the same three months period in 
1998.

Year 2000 Issue

General

The  Company  formed a committee  of senior  company  personnel  in late 1997 to
address the issue of computer  programs and embedded computer chips being unable
to distinguish between the year 1900 and the year 2000. The committee meets on a
regular basis to evaluate,  review  progress,  and make  recommendations  on the
various  phases of the Year 2000  project.  The  Company is  satisfied  with the
progress  made to date and is on track to  complete  the project in time for the
Year 2000 date change.

Project

The Company-wide project is divided into seven major phases

1.      The Awareness Phase
2.      The Assessment Phase
3.      The Vendor, Customer and Employee Notification Phase
4.      The Vendor and Customer Response Review Phase
5.      The Testing Phase
6.      The Contingency Phase
7.      The Renovation Phase

The  Awareness  Phase  consisted  of gaining  executive  level  support  for the
resources  necessary to perform  compliance  work, of  establishing  a Year 2000
project team and of developing an overall strategy that encompassed the in-house
core system,  out-sourced  systems,  vendors,  customers and suppliers including
correspondents. The Awareness Phase is fully completed.

The Assessment  Phase consisted of assessing the size,  scope, and complexity of
the problem, detailing the magnitude of the effort necessary to address the Year
2000  project  and the  preparation  of a Year  2000  action  plan.  This  phase
identified all hardware,  software,  network,  ATM and various other  processing
platforms, and customer and vendor  interdependencies  affected by the year 2000
date  change.  The  assessment  went  beyond  informational  systems  to include
environmental systems that are dependent on embedded microchips such as security
systems, elevators and vaults. The Assessment Phase is fully completed.


<PAGE>6


The Vendor, Customer and Employee Notification Phase consisted of the following:

1.   The mailing of letters to critical vendors requesting information
     on their Year 2000 compliance plans and readiness.
2.   The  mailing  of  letters  to, and  personal  contact  with major
     customers (with special  emphasis given key loan  customers),  to
     ascertain  their  awareness,  preparations  and compliance  plans
     relative to the Year 2000 problem.
3.   Company staff members were guest speakers at several service clubs 
     in the area outlining the Year 2000 problem.
4.   Meetings were held with all staff members within the Company to 
     advise them of the Year 2000  problem,  and the steps the Company 
     was taking to ensure compliance.
5.   The  Bank's  Year  2000  Policy  Statement,   as  well  as  other
     informational  items,  has been made  available both to customers
     and other interested parties.

The Vendor, Customer and Employee Notification Phase is completed.  The Company,
however,  will continue to keep vendors,  customers and employees updated on its
compliance progress and general Year 2000 issues.

The  Vendor and  Customer  Response  Review  Phase is on going.  The  Company is
continuing  to follow up with vendors and  customers  who have not yet responded
and with those whose  responses  were deemed to be less than  satisfactory.  The
Company is  continuing  to require  all loan  officers  to include in their loan
write-ups a discussion of the customer's Year 2000 preparedness.  The Company is
of the  opinion  that this phase will be a  continuing  project  throughout  the
remainder of 1998 and on into 1999.

The Testing  Phase is a  multifaceted  process that is critical to the Year 2000
project and inherent in each phase of the project  plan.  This process  includes
the testing of  incremental  changes to hardware  and  software  components.  In
addition to testing upgraded components,  connections with other systems will be
verified to ensure that all changes are accepted by internal and external users.
The committee  will assure the  effective and timely  completion of all hardware
and  software  testing  prior to final  implementation  and  will  have  ongoing
discussions  with their  vendors  of their  testing  efforts.  The  Company  has
prepared,  and the Board of Directors has approved, the Company's Year 2000 Test
Plan.  Several of the  necessary  test scripts are  completed but the Company is
slightly  behind its  internal  schedule  in this phase of the  project due to a
major upgrade to the Company's core system not being ready for installation when
originally  anticipated.  The  installation  of the  upgrade  is  scheduled  for
November  and the Testing  Phase of the core system will then  commence.  In the
meantime,  several of the ancillary  systems have been tested without  incident.
The  Company  is on pace for  timely  completion  of the  necessary  testing  as
required by its regulatory agencies.

The Contingency  Phase will consist of developing  plans to address  remediation
and business  resumption  functions that rely on mission critical  systems.  The
contingency plan is in the process of being  formalized in writing.  The Company
anticipates that the Contingency Phase plan will be completed by March 31, 1999.

The  Renovation  Phase  will  consist  of  renovating,  replacing  and  retiring
non-compliant  systems,  as well as  evaluating  Year  2000  code  enhancements,
hardware  and  software  upgrades,  system  replacements  and  

<PAGE>7

other associated changes. The Company anticipates that the Renovation Phase will
continue throughout the remainder of 1998 and on into 1999.

Costs

The total  cost  associated  with  required  modifications  to become  Year 2000
compliant is not expected to be material to the  Company's  financial  position.
The estimated total cost of the Year 2000 project is approximately  $500,000.00.
A minimal amount, other than time of the committee members, has been expended on
the Year 2000 project as of September  30, 1998.  The Company is also  expensing
and  reserving  $10,000.00 a month for possible  loan losses caused by Year 2000
problems. This reserve will be approximately $225,000.00 at December 31, 1999.

Risks

The  failure  to  correct  material  Year  2000  problems  could  result  in the
interruption  in,  or a  failure  of,  certain  normal  business  activities  or
operations.  Such failures could  materially and adversely  affect the Company's
results of  operations,  liquidity and financial  condition.  Due to the general
uncertainty  inherent  in  the  Year  2000  problem,   resulting  in  part  from
uncertainty of the Year 2000  readiness of third party  suppliers and customers,
the  Company  is unable to  specifically  determine  at this  time  whether  the
consequences  of Year 2000 failures will have a material impact on the Company's
results of operations,  liquidity or financial  condition.  However, its ongoing
Year 2000 efforts are expected to  significantly  reduce the Company's  level of
uncertainty about the Year 2000 problem and, in particular,  about the Year 2000
compliance  and readiness of its critical  vendors.  The Company  believes that,
with implementation of new business systems, if necessary, and the completion of
the project as scheduled, the possibility of significant interruptions of normal
operations should be reduced to a minimum.

Capital Resources

Management  seeks to  maintain  adequate  capital to support  anticipated  asset
growth and credit  risks and to ensure  that the  Company  meets all  regulatory
capital requirements.

The Company is required to maintain certain  regulatory  minimum capital ratios.
The following table outlines these ratios at September 30, 1998:

                                REQUIRED         COMPANY'S
                                MINIMUM            ACTUAL

TIER 1                            6.00             10.82

TOTAL CAPITAL                    10.00             12.04

LEVERAGE                          5.00              7.97

Future growth and earnings retention, as currently projected by management,  are
expected to provide for the maintenance of capital ratios in conformity with the
requirements.

Income Taxes

The  provision  for  income  taxes  was  $1,720,000  for the nine  months  ended
September  30, 1998,  compared to  $1,073,000 in the same period a year earlier.
The  provision is  classified  as current tax  liability  for interim  reporting
purposes.  The tax rate was 38.0% for the nine months ended  September 30, 1998,
compared to 33.7% for the same period in 1997.

Liquidity

The Company manages its liquidity to ensure that sufficient  funds are available
to meet loan commitments and deposit fluctuations.  Primary sources of liquidity
include cash and due from bank deposits,  unpledged  short-term U.S.  Government
securities and federal funds sold. The Bank's primary liquidity ratio,  which is
the ratio of liquid assets to total  deposits,  was 30.6% at September 30, 1998,
38.8% at December 31, 1997 and 37.1% at September 30, 1997.

On January 1, 1995, the Company  adopted SFAS No. 114,  "Accounting by Creditors
for Impairment of a Loan." This statement addresses the accounting and reporting
by creditors for impairment of certain  loans.  A loan is impaired  when,  based
upon current  information  and events,  it is probable  that a creditor  will be
unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan
agreement.  This statement is applicable to all loans,  uncollateralized as well
as collateralized, except large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans that
are collectively evaluated for impairment such as consumer installment loans and
loans held for sale which are  measured at fair value or at the lower of cost or
fair value. Impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future
cash flows  discounted at the loan's effective  interest rate,  except that as a
practical  expedient,   the  Company  measures  impairment  based  on  a  loan's
observable  market  price or the fair  value  of the  collateral  if the loan is
collateral dependent. Loans are measured for impairment as part of the Company's
normal internal asset review process.

Interest  income is recognized on impaired  loans in a manner similar to that of
all loans. It is the Company's policy to place loans that are delinquent 90 days
or more as to  principal or interest on a  nonaccrual  of interest  basis unless
secured and in the process of  collection,  and to reverse from  current  income
accrued  but  uncollected  interest.  Cash  payments  subsequently  received  on
nonaccrual  loans are  recognized as income only where the future  collection of
principal is considered by management to be probable.

At September 30, 1998, the Company's total recorded investment in impaired loans
was $9,999 for which there is a related  allowance  for credit  losses of $1,628
determined in accordance with these Statements.  The average recorded investment
in the  impaired  loans  during the nine  months  ended  September  30, 1998 was
$10,000. The related amount of interest income recognized during the period

<PAGE>12

that  such  loans  were  impaired  was $733 and the  amount of  interest  income
recognized  using a cash-basis  method of accounting  during the time within the
period that such loans were impaired was $722.

On March 31, 1998,  the Company  adopted SFAS No. 130  "Reporting  Comprehensive
Income."  This  statement  establishes  standards  for  reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components (revenues,  expenses,  gains and losses)
in a full set of general-purpose  financial statements.  This Statement requires
that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting  standards as
components of comprehensive  income be reported in a financial statement that is
displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. This Statement
does not require a specific  format for that  financial  statement  but requires
that an enterprise display an amount representing total comprehensive income for
the period in that financial statement.

This  Statement  requires  that  an  enterprise  (a)  classify  items  of  other
comprehensive  income by their nature in a financial  statement  and (b) display
the accumulated balance of other  comprehensive  income separately from retained
earnings and additional  paid-in capital in the equity section of a statement of
financial position.

This Statement is effective for fiscal years  beginning after December 15, 1997.
Reclassification  of  financial  statements  for earlier  periods  provided  for
comparative purposes is required.

Comprehensive  income is  defined  as "the  change in equity  [net  assets] of a
business  enterprise  during a period  from  transactions  and other  events and
circumstances from non-owner sources. It includes all changes in equity during a
period except those resulting from  investments by owners and  distributions  to
owners."

The Board also  stated  that "a full set of  financial  statements  for a period
should show: Financial position at the end of the period,  earnings (net income)
for the period, comprehensive income (total non-owner changes in equity) for the
period,  cash flows during the period,  and investments by and  distributions to
owners during the period."  Prior to issuance of this  Statement,  the Board had
neither  required that an enterprise  report  comprehensive  income,  nor had it
recommended a format for displaying comprehensive income.


Note 3 - Consolidation

The consolidated  financial statements include the accounts of Humboldt Bancorp,
its  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  Humboldt Bank and its 50% ownership  with Tehema
Bank, of Bancorp  Financial  Services.  All material  intercompany  accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.


Note 4 - Commitments

The bank had  outstanding  performance  letters  of  credit of $6.9  million  at
September 30, 1998 and 3.9 million at September 30, 1997.

Note 5 - Net Income Per Common Share

Net income per share is calculated by using the weighted  average  common shares
outstanding.  The weighted average number of common shares used in computing the
net  income  per  common  share for the period  ending  September  30,  1998 was
1,768,492 and for the period ending September 30, 1997 was 1,717,462.

Net income per share  (diluted)  is  calculated  by using the  weighted  average
common  shares  (diluted)  outstanding.  The weighted  average  number of common
shares (diluted) used in computing the net income per common share (diluted) for
the period  ending  September  30, 1998 was  2,042,259 and for the period ending
September 30, 1997 was 1,967,725.
