                                 (In thousands)

Note A.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
         prepared in accordance with generally  accepted  accounting  principles
         for interim  financial  information  and with the  instructions to Form
         10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Rule 3-X.  Accordingly,  they do not include all
         of  the  information  and  footnotes  required  by  generally  accepted
         accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion
         of  management,   all  adjustments  considered  necessary  for  a  fair
         presentation have been included.  All such adjustments were of a normal
         recurring nature. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior
         period's financial  statements to place them on a comparable basis with
         the  current  period's  financial  statements.  Operating  results  are
         presented for the nine-month  period ended  September 30, 1996, and are
         not necessarily  indicative of the results that may be expected for the
         year ending  December 31, 1996.  For further  information  refer to the
         financial  statements and footnotes  thereto  included as Exhibit 13 to
         the  Corporation's  Annual  Report  on Form  10-K  for the  year  ended
         December 31, 1995.

Note B.  REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

         Regulators  of the  Corporation  and its  subsidiary  have  implemented
         risk-based  capital  guidelines that require the maintenance of certain
         minimum  capital as a percent of assets and certain  off-balance  sheet
         items  adjusted for  predefined  credit risk  factors.  The  regulatory
         minimum  for Tier and  combined  Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital  ratios were
         4.0% and 8.0%,  respectively.  Tier 1 capital includes  tangible common
         shareholders' equity reduced by goodwill and certain other intangibles.
         Tier 2 capital includes portions of the allowance for loan losses,  not
         to exceed Tier 1 capital. In addition to the risk-based  guidelines,  a
         minimum leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital as a percentage of average total
         consolidated assets) of 4.0% is required. This minimum may be increased
         by at least 1.0% or 2.0% for  entities  with  higher  levels of risk or
         that are experiencing or anticipating significant growth. The following
         table  contains  the  capital  ratios  for  the   Corporation  and  its
         subsidiary as of September 30, 1996.

PART I.  ITEM 2.

         Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
                              Results of Operations

Highlands  Bankshares,  Inc.  (the  "Company")  was formed  December 31, 1995 to
operate as a one-bank holding  company.  The Company acquired 100% of the common
stock of Highlands Union Bank (the "Bank")  through this corporate  restructure.
Therefore,  all of the comparative  material  contained  within this document is
made  between the Company at September  30, 1996 and the Bank at  September  30,
1995. The following  discussion and analysis is provided to address  information
about the Company's  financial  condition and results of operations  that is not
otherwise apparent from the consolidated  financial  statements  incorporated by
reference  or  included  in this  report.  Reference  should  be  made to  those
statements for an understanding of the following discussion and analysis.

                              Results of Operations

Results of  operations  for the period ended  September  30, 1996  reflected net
income of $1.2 million,  an increase of 16.97% over net income  reported for the
corresponding  period in 1995. Operating results of the Company when measured as
a percentage of average  equity  reveals a decrease in returns on average equity
from 12.42% for the  nine-month  period in 1995 to 12.34% for the  corresponding
period in 1996.  Return on average  assets at .93% also reflects a decrease from
1.00% for the same period in 1995.  This decrease on return on average assets is
primarily due to the absorption of additional  operating  costs  associated with
the opening of a new branch office in December  1995.  Earnings per common share
were $1.01, increasing from $.87 for the same period in 1995.

Net  interest  income for the nine months  ended  September  30, 1996  increased
22.59%,   approximately  $899,000  over  the  comparable  1995  period.  Average
interest-earning assets increased approximately $24.4 million from September 30,
1995 to the current period, while average interest-bearing liabilities increased
$28.5  million  during  the  same  comparative  period.  The  yield  on  average
interest-earning  assets  increased 55 basis points to 8.54% in 1996 as compared
to 7.99% in 1995. The yield on average interest-bearing liabilities increased 16
basis  points to 5.14% in 1996 as  compared to 4.98% in 1995.  This  increase in
yield on  interest-bearing  liabilities  is necessary to maintain  depositors in
order to continue funding its large loan demand.

The third quarter provision for possible loan losses totaled $190,000, a $67,000
increase from the corresponding period in 1995. The Company continually monitors
the loan  portfolio  for  signs of  credit  weakness  or  developing  collection
problems.  Levels  for each  period are  determined  after  evaluating  the loan
portfolio and determining the level necessary to absorb current  charge-offs and
maintain the reserve at adequate levels. Net charge-offs in the third quarter of
1996 were $155,000 compared with $138,000 in 1995. Net charge-offs were 0.11% of
total loans for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 as compared to .12% for the
1995 quarter end. Loan loss reserves  increased  14.86% to $943,000 at September
30, 1996. Reserves as of September 30, 1996 represent .67% of total loans versus
 .76% for the 1995 period.

                               Financial Position

Total loans have  increased  from $107.9 million at September 30, 1995 to $142.3
million at September  30, 1996.  The loan to deposit  ratio has  increased  from
78.37% at  September  30,  1995 to 83.34% at  September  30,  1996.  Loan demand
continues at a high pace even within a competitive market area.

Non-performing  assets are  comprised of loans on  non-accrual  status and loans
contractually   past  due  90  days  or  more  and  still   accruing   interest.
Non-performing  assets were  $624,000 at September  30, 1996,  or 0.44% of total
loans, compared with $472,000, or 0.44% at September 30, 1995.

Securities  totaled $33.6 million  (market  value) at September 30, 1996,  which
reflects an increase of $3.2 million or 10.31% from the September 30, 1995 total
of $30.5  million.  The majority of this  increase is in purchases of adjustable
rate  securities  in order to  match  the  current  volatile  rate  environment.
Securities,  as of  September  30,  1996,  are  comprised  of  U.S.  Treasuries,
approximately 7.40% of the total securities  portfolio,  obligations of the U.S.
Government and debt  securities,  approximately  86.44% of the total  securities
portfolio,  municipal issues,  approximately 3.64% of the securities  portfolio,
and equity  securities,  approximately  2.52% of the securities  portfolio.  The
Company's entire security portfolio is classified as available for sale for both
1996 and 1995.

Total  stockholders'  equity of the Company was $13.9  million at September  30,
1996,  representing  an increase of $1.6  million or 13.35% over  September  30,
1995. The fluctuations of market prices on available for sale securities  causes
the significant variations of the stockholders' equity.

The Company  maintains a significant  level of liquidity in the form of cash and
cash balances  ($7.5 million at September  30,  1996),  overnight  investment in
federal  funds  sold  ($1.2  million  at  September  30,  1996)  and  investment
securities available for sale ($33.6 million).  Both cash and federal funds sold
are  immediately  available for  satisfaction of deposit  withdrawals,  customer
credit needs and operations of the Company.  Investment securities are available
for conversion to liquid funds in the event of extraordinary needs.
