          NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)



Note 1.   Unaudited Financial Information

          The financial information included herein as of and for the three and
          six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 is unaudited; however,
          such information includes all adjustments which, in the opinion of
          management, are necessary to present fairly, the results of operations
          for such periods.  Results of operations for the three and six month
          periods ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the
          results of operations which will be realized for the year ending
          December 31, 1996.

Note 2.   Accounting for One-Bank Holding Company

          The financial statements included herein represent the consolidated
          activity of FBT Bancorp (the "Company"), a one-bank holding company,
          and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Fidelity Bank and Trust Company (the
          "Bank").  The Company was incorporated in 1995.  The Company's
          business operations consisted solely of matters relating to its
          organization and its acquisition of Equitable Trust Savings Bank by
          means of a merger which became effective on May 24, 1996.  The merger
          was accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control
          similar to a pooling-of-interests; accordingly, all assets and
          liabilities of the Bank remain at their respective book values at the
          effective date of the merger.

          The 1995 income statement and cash flow information included herein
          represents the activity of the Bank only.  Due to the limited number
          of transactions at the holding company level, any restatement of the
          1995 balances would be immaterial.

Item 2.

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


     FBT Bancorp (the "Company") is a one-bank holding company incorporated 
in the state of Delaware in November, 1995.  The Company was formed to 
acquire all of the outstanding common stock of Equitable Trust Savings Bank 
("Equitable Trust").  The merger of Equitable Trust with and into Fidelity 
Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank") became effective on May 24, 1996.  The 
Bank is a Louisiana state bank and is the Company's only subsidiary.  The 
Company presently has no material business interests other than those engaged 
in by the Bank.

     Management is not aware of any trends, events, uncertainties or specific 
recommendations made to the Company or the Bank by regulatory authorities, 
other than as may be disclosed herein, which will have or that are reasonably 
likely to have a material affect on liquidity, capital resources or results 
of operations of the Company.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company and the Bank maintain an adequate liquidity position.  At 
June 30, 1996, the Bank's liquidity ratio was 43.1%, which included 
$16,000,000 in cash, short term investments and marketable assets that were 
available to meet liquidity needs.

     Loan levels have increased $2,800,000 since December 31, 1995.  Deposits 
have increased marginally since December 1995.  Accordingly, the increased 
lending activity has been funded primarily through an increase in the Bank's 
participation in the Federal Home Loan Bank Mortgage Warehouse Program.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was $320,808, which 
represents an increase of $126,388 over the comparable period last year.  The 
increase is due primarily to an increase in interest and fees on loans.  Loan 
income increased $658,394 over the period, a 33% increase, due primarily to 
increased mortgage loans.  Net interest income increased $648,813 due to the 
increase in loan income.

     Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 increased 
$26,471 over the six months ended June 30, 1995, principally due to increased 
profits realized on the sale of mortgage loans.  

     Non-interest expense of $1,177,500 for the six months ended June 30, 
1996 reflected an increase of $37,685 over the six months ended June 30, 
1995.  While personnel expense decreased $7,806, occupancy and equipment 
expense increased $22,935 and other operating 

                                     -6- 
<PAGE>

expense increased $22,556.  The increased occupancy expense was the result of 
increased maintenance and depreciation costs due to the purchase of a 
facility to be used as an operations center.  Increased legal fees and 
consultant fees associated with the organization of the Company and the 
accompanying merger was principally responsible for the increase in other 
operating expense.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

     The Company is exempt from the risk-based capital guidelines prescribed 
by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System because its 
consolidated assets are less than $150 million.  The Bank, however, is 
subject to comparable guidelines issued by the Federal Deposit Insurance 
Corporation and the Louisiana Office of Financial Institutions.  The capital 
ratios of the Bank are higher than the minimum requirements prescribed by

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.   Legal Proceedings.

     On May 24, 1996, Sidney S. Moreland, IV and Joseph T. Spinosa filed a 
lawsuit (the "Lawsuit") in the 19th Judicial District Court for the Parish of 
East Baton Rouge, State of Louisiana against the Registrant, Fidelity Bank 
and Trust Company ("Fidelity"), Equitable Trust Savings Bank ("Equitable 
Trust") and the directors of each such entity.  The plaintiffs alleged that 
the proposed merger (the "Merger") of Equitable Trust into Fidelity was not 
authorized by law and was not properly approved by the stockholders of 
Equitable Trust, that the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and certain 
correspondence mailed to the stockholders of Equitable Trust prior to the 
special meeting at which the Merger was voted upon violated federal 
securities laws and that the Merger was not in the best interests, and 
improperly modified constitutionally protected rights, of the Equitable Trust 
stockholders.  The plaintiffs sought injunctive and declaratory relief 
preventing the Merger.  The defendants denied the plaintiffs' allegations and 
denied any liability.

     The Lawsuit was settled on August 8, 1996.  Management does not believe 
that the settlement and defense costs associated with the Lawsuit will have a 
material impact on the financial condition of the Registrant.

     The foregoing "Legal Proceedings" section,  insofar as it relates to the 
effect on the Registrant's financial condition of the settlement and defense 
costs associated with the Lawsuit, contains various "forward looking 
statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 
and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which represent the 
Registrant's expectations or beliefs concerning such matter.  The Registrant 
cautions that the actual impact of the Lawsuit on the Registrant's financial 
condition could be affected by a number of factors, including, without 
limitation, the scope of insurance coverage.

Items 2 - 3.   Inapplicable.

Item 4.   Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

          At a Special Meeting of Stockholders of FBT Bancorp (the "Company")
          held on May 2, 1996, the sole stockholder of the Company voted for the
          following matter:

          To adopt Amendment No. 1 to the FBT Bancorp 1995 Stock Incentive Plan:


                  Votes Cast For                         :   10,000 
                  Votes Cast Against or Abstain          :        0

     Amendment No. 1 to 1995 Stock Incentive Plan of Equitable Bancshares, 
Inc. is adopted effective as of May 1, 1996.

     WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of Equitable Bancshares, Inc. (the

Company's Certificate of Incorporation, which was filed with the Secretary of 
State of the State of Delaware on February 6, 1996; and

     WHEREAS, the Company's Board of Directors has determined that it is in 
the best interests of the Company that the Plan be amended to reduce the

follows:

         "The shares of Common Stock and any other Company Security which may 
     be (a) sold upon the exercise of Option Rights, (b) delivered upon the 
     exercise of Appreciation Rights, (c) granted or sold as Restricted Stock
     and released from substantial risks of forfeiture and restrictions on 
     transfer thereof or (d) delivered in payment of any Performance Units or
