                                COLUMBIA BANCORP
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

1.    Principles of Consolidation

      The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
      Columbia Bancorp, a bank holding company (Bancorp), and its wholly-owned
      subsidiaries, Columbia River Banking Company ("Columbia River"), and
      Klickitat Valley Bank ("Klickitat Valley"), after elimination of
      intercompany transactions and balances. Substantially all activity of
      Bancorp is conducted through its subsidiary banks.

      The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
      generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
      information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
      footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for
      complete financial statements. The financial information included in this
      interim report has been prepared by management without audit by
      independent public accountants who do not express an opinion thereon.
      Bancorp's annual report will contain audited financial statements. In the
      opinion of management, all adjustments including normal recurring accruals
      necessary for fair presentation of results of operations for the interim
      periods included herein have been made. The results of operations for the
      nine months ended September 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of
      results to be anticipated for the year ending December 31, 1996.

2.    Recent Mergers

      Bancorp was incorporated on October 3, 1995, and became the holding
      company of Columbia River through merger. Columbia River is an Oregon
      state-chartered bank, headquartered in The Dalles, Oregon, and doing
      business as Columbia River Bank and Juniper Banking Company. The effective
      date of the merger was January 1, 1996, and the transaction was
      consummated on January 13, 1996, on which date Bancorp acquired 100% of
      the common stock of Columbia River, and the shareholders of Columbia River
      became shareholders of Bancorp.

      Effective June 13, 1996, Bancorp completed its acquisition of Klickitat
      Valley, making Klickitat Valley the second wholly-owned bank subsidiary of
      Bancorp. The business combination was accomplished through the exchange of
      8.5 shares of Bancorp common stock for each share of Klickitat Valley
      common stock. Klickitat Valley is a Washington state-chartered bank with
      headquarters in Goldendale, Washington.

      The accompanying financial statements have been restated and include the
      accounts and results of operations of the mergers as pooling-of-interest
      combinations.

3.    Loans and Reserve for Loan Losses
      The composition of the loan portfolio was as follows:

</TABLE>

      It is the policy of Bancorp's subsidiaries, Columbia River, and Klickitat
      Valley, to place loans on nonaccrual status whenever the collection of all
      or a part of the principal balance is in doubt. Loans placed on nonaccrual
      status may or may not be contractually past due at the time of such
      determination, and may or may not be secured by collateral. Loans on
      nonaccrual status at September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995 were
      approximately $267,000 and $308,000, respectively.

      Loans past due 90 days or more on which Bancorp continued to accrue
      interest were approximately $52,000 at September 30, 1996, and
      approximately $60,000 at December 31, 1995. There were no loans on which
      the interest rate or payment schedule were modified from their original
      terms to accommodate a borrower's weakened financial position at September
      30, 1996 or December 31, 1995.

4.    Earnings Per Common Share

      Earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the
      weighted average shares outstanding. Weighted average shares outstanding
      consist of common shares outstanding and common stock equivalents
      attributable to outstanding stock options.

      The weighted average number of shares and common share equivalents have
      been adjusted to give retroactive effect to the 3-for-1 stock split in
      September 1995.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

      Columbia Bancorp (Bancorp) has completed its first quarter of operations
since the June 13th acquisition of Klickitat Valley Bank (Klickitat Valley).
Joining Columbia River Banking Company (Columbia River), the acquisition made
Klickitat Valley the second wholly-owned bank subsidiary of Bancorp. Management
believes the benefits of this acquisition are evident in the results of
operations of Bancorp, and will continue to strengthen both Columbia River and
Klickitat Valley as they continue providing their communities with financial
products and services.

      As the third quarter of 1996 drew to a close, excitement grew in
anticipation of the grand opening of the third branch of Columbia River's
Juniper Banking Company in Bend, Oregon. Management is extremely optimistic
about the future of this branch. In the shadow of the majestic Cascade mountain
range, the Bend office expands our market territory south, deeper into central
Oregon, into the an area that is continuing to see tremendous growth in
population. It is the largest city served by any of Bancorp's now nine branch
offices. Management is confident the Bend Office of Juniper Banking Company will
soon be discovered and patronized for providing unequaled expertise in the
delivery of bank services heretofore unseen in the Bend community.

      Columbia Bancorp reported net income of $2,014,190, or $.88 per share for
the nine months ended September 30, 1996. This represented a 11.4% increase in
net income, as compared to $1,807,282, or $.80 per share, for the nine months
ended September 30, 1995. Net income of $792,133, or $.35 per share for the
quarter ended September 30 1996 represented a 12.5% increase in net income, as
compared to $704,205, or $.31 per share, for the quarter ended September 30,
1995. The increased earnings during the quarter ended September 30, 1996
reflected primarily the expansion of Bancorp's interest-earning assets and
increased net interest income.

      The net income added to shareholders' equity during the first nine months
of 1996 was offset, in part, by dividends paid out to shareholders of $545,011.
On September 23, the Bancorp board declared a third-quarter dividend of $.07 per
share payable October 31 to shareholders of record September 30, 1996. With the
payment of the declared dividend, approximately 35% of earnings will have been
returned to shareholders, the remaining 65% being retained to fund the continued
strong growth of Bancorp.

MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

      Material changes in financial condition for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 include an increase in total assets, primarily in loans.
Funds were provided for these changes primarily by an increase in total
deposits.

      At September 30, 1996, total assets increased 9.8%, or approximately $17.6
million, over total assets at December 31, 1995. An increase of $9.8 million in
loans, an increase of $7.5 million in cash and cash equivalents, and a $.6
million decrease in investment securities were the major components of the
change in total assets. The increase in loans is reflected in increases in all
loan categories and is indicative of the continuing good local economy, and the
efforts of experienced loan professionals capitalizing on borrowers' desire for
service and value-added products.

      Bancorp experienced an increase in deposits of $16.3 million during the
first nine months of 1996. Interest bearing demand deposits increased $14.4
million, and savings deposits increased $1.8 million at September 30, 1996 as
compared to December 31, 1995. Management believes this increase is due to
continuing marketing efforts and helped by continued customer dissatisfaction
with merger and consolidation activities by competition in the markets served by
the Bank.

                                       9
<PAGE>   10

      All other changes experienced in asset and liability categories during the
first nine months of 1996 were comparatively modest.

MATERIAL CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      Total interest income increased $1,184,929 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996, and $343,414 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996, as
compared to the same periods in 1995. This increase is primarily due to the
increase in loans and federal funds held in 1996 as compared to 1995.

      Total interest expense also increased $467,045 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996, and $40,229 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996, as
compared to the same periods in 1995. This increase is primarily due to the
increase in time deposits held during 1996 as compared to 1995.

      The increase in interest earned, offset in part by the increase in
interest paid, served to increase Bancorp's net interest income by $717,884 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1996, as compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 1995. Net income per common share increased to $.88 for the first
nine months of 1996 from $.80 for the first nine months of 1995.


      Noninterest income increased approximately $164,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995. This increase
is primarily attributable to increases in income generated by Columbia River's
credit card program, and the financial services division of Columbia River.
Other noninterest income and service charges and fees on deposit accounts also
added to the increase.

      Noninterest expense increased approximately $443,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 as compared to the comparable 1995 period. The increase
for the nine month period was primarily attributable to increases in salaries
and employee benefits and other noninterest expenses. Other noninterest expenses
increased primarily due to professional expenses related to the formation of
Bancorp as the holding company for the Bank, the initial filing of registration
of Bancorp with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and expenses related to
the Klickitat Valley acquisition. Decreases in Office Supplies expense, FDIC
Assessments and Data Processing expenses partially offset other increases.

      Salaries and employee benefits increased approximately $233,000, or 9%,
during the first nine months of 1996 as compared to the 1995 nine month period.
Management believes this increase was primarily due to deferred compensation
expense and routine adjustments in officer and staff salaries.

LOAN LOSS PROVISION

      During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, Bancorp charged a
$156,479 loan loss provision to operations, as compared to $65,500 charged
during the same period in 1995. Loans charged off, net of loan recoveries, was
$8,344 during the nine months ended September 30, 1996. Although this is
excellent in comparison to Bancorp's peer group, it pales in comparison to net
recoveries of $43,416 made during the same nine month period in 1995.

      Management believes that the reserve for loan losses is adequate for
potential loan losses, based on management's assessment of various factors,
including present delinquent and nonperforming loans, past history of industry
loan loss experience, and present and anticipated future economic trends
impacting the areas and customers served by Bancorp.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      Bancorp's subsidiaries, Columbia River, and Klickitat Valley, have adopted
policies to maintain a relatively liquid position to enable them to respond to
changes in their financial environment. Generally, the Banks' major sources of
liquidity are customer deposits, sales and maturities of investment securities,
the use of federal funds markets and net cash provided by operating activities.
Scheduled loan repayments are a relatively stable source of funds, while deposit
inflows and unscheduled loan prepayments, which are influenced by general
interest rate levels, interest rates available on other investments,
competition, economic conditions and other factors, are not.


                                       10
<PAGE>   11

      The analysis of liquidity should also include a review of the changes that
appear in the consolidated statement of cash flows for the first nine months of
1996. The statement of cash flows includes operating, investing and financing
categories. Operating activities include net income of $2,014,190, which is
adjusted for non-cash items and increases or decreases in cash due to changes in
certain assets and liabilities. Investing activities consisted primarily of both
proceeds from and purchases of securities, and the impact of the net growth in
loans. Financing activities present the cash flows associated with deposit
accounts, and reflect the dividend paid to shareholders.

The Federal Reserve Board ("FRB") and Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
("FDIC") have established minimum requirements for capital adequacy for bank
holding companies and member banks. The requirements address both risk-based
capital and leveraged capital. The regulatory agencies may establish higher
minimum requirements if, for example, a corporation has previously received
special attention or has a high susceptibility to interest rate risk. At
September 30, 1996, the Bancorp's tier-one and total risk-based

                                       11
<PAGE>   12

capital ratios were 13.81% and 14.73%, respectively. The FRB's minimum
risk-based capital ratio guidelines for Tier 1 and total capital are 4% and 8%,
respectively. At September 30, 1996, the capital-to-assets ratio under leverage
ratio guidelines was approximately 9.79%. The FRB's current minimum leverage
capital ratio guideline is 3%.
