                            TIB FINANCIAL CORPORATION
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 MARCH 31, 1998
                                   (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for TIB Financial
Corporation (the "Company) have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statement presentation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of trends or results to be
expected for the year ended December 31, 1998. For further information, refer to
the Company's consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the
year ended December 31, 1997.

The consolidated statements include the accounts of TIB Financial Corporation
and its wholly-owned subsidiary, TIB Bank of the Keys, collectively known as the
Company. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.

Certain amounts previously reported on have been reclassified to conform with
current period presentation.

NOTE 2 - LOANS

Loans are reported at the gross amount outstanding, reduced by net deferred loan
fees and a valuation allowance for loan losses. Interest income on loans is
recognized over the terms of the loans based on the unpaid daily principal
amount outstanding. If the collectibility of interest appears doubtful, the
accrual thereof is discontinued. Loan origination fees, net of direct loan
origination costs, are deferred and recognized as income over the life of the
related loan on a level-yield basis. Gains on sales of government guaranteed
loans are recognized as income when the sale occurs.

Major classifications of loans are as follows:

NOTE 3 - ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses
charged to expense. The allowance represents an amount which, in management's
judgment, will be adequate to absorb probable losses on existing loans that may
become uncollectible. Management's judgment in determining the adequacy of the
allowance is based on evaluations of the collectibility of loans and takes into
consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan
portfolio, current economic conditions that may affect the borrower's ability to
pay, overall portfolio quality and review of specific problem loans. Periodic
revisions are made to the allowance when circumstances which necessitate such
revisions become known. Recognized losses are charged to the allowance for loan
losses, while subsequent recoveries are added to the allowance.

NOTE 4 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Securities available-for-sale are securities which management believes may be
sold prior to maturity for liquidity or other reasons and are reported at fair
value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of related income taxes, reported
as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Securities held-to-maturity are
those securities for which management has both the ability and intent to hold to
maturity and are carried at amortized cost.

The amortized cost and estimated market value of investment securities
held-to-maturity at March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997 are presented below:

NOTE 5 - EARNINGS PER SHARE AND COMMON STOCK

Basic earnings per share has been computed based on the weighted average number
of common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Stock options are
considered to be common stock equivalents for purposes of calculating diluted
earnings per share. A 3 for 1 stock split was declared on February 25, 1997 and
has been treated retroactively as occurring on January 1, 1997, for earnings per
share computation purposes.

The reconciliation of basic earnings per share to diluted earnings per share is
as follows:

NOTE 7 - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 130 (SFAS 130), "Reporting Comprehensive Income." This statement
is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December
15, 1997. Under SFAS 130, a company is required to show changes in assets and
liabilities as comprehensive income in the statement of stockholders equity or
in alternative comprehensive income statement presentations. The adoption of
SFAS 130 did not have a significant impact on the financial condition or results
of operations of the Company.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 131 (SFAS 131), "Disclosures About Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS 131 is effective January 1, 1998 and
requires disclosures of certain financial information by segments of a company's
business. The adoption of SFAS 131 is not expected to have a significant impact
on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

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

The following discussion addresses the factors that have affected the financial
condition and results of operations of TIB Financial Corporation (the "Company")
as reflected in the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three
months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997. The Company's operating subsidiary is TIB
Bank of the Keys.

The Company's net income of $825,056 for the first quarter of 1998 was a 5.0%
increase compared to $785,862 for the same period last year. The increase in net
income is attributed to an increase of $202,637, or 6.5%, in net interest
income; an increase of $688,557, or 67.1%, in other income; offset by an
increase of $15,000 in the provision for loan losses; an increase in other
expense of $747,312, or 25.8%; and an increase in income tax expense of $89,688.
Basic and diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 1998 were $0.19
and $0.18 respectively as compared to $0.18 and $0.17 per share in the previous
year's quarter. Book value per share increased to $5.74 at March 31, 1998 from
$5.62 at December 31, 1997. The Company paid a quarterly dividend of $0.10 per
share on January 10, 1998 and April 10, 1998, respectively.

Annualized return on average equity for the three months ended March 31, 1998
was 13.3% on average equity of $24,877,000, compared to 13.7% on average equity
of $22,978,000 for the same period in 1997. Annualized return on average assets
of $289,930,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was 1.14%, compared to
1.24% on average assets of $253,477,000 for the same period in 1997, due to
strong asset growth in the first quarter of 1998 exceeding a more moderate
increase in earnings.

Net interest income is an effective measurement of how well management has
balanced the Company's interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities. The
Company's net interest income is its principal source of income. Interest
earning assets for the Company include loans, federal funds sold, and investment
securities. The Company's interest-bearing liabilities include its deposits,
federal funds purchased, and other short-term borrowings. Net interest income
increased 6.5% to $3.3 million, in the quarter ended March 31, 1998 as compared
to the same period last year primarily as a result of a higher level of earning
assets. Interest from loans increased to $4.3 million for the first quarter of
1998 compared to $4.0 million for the comparable period last year. The
establishment of a very competitive money market account at the end of 1996 has
continued to attract substantial deposits and has increased interest expense.
This has led to the Company's net interest margin declining to 4.96% in the
first quarter of 1998 compared to 5.45% in the first quarter of 1997.

Provision for loan losses increased slightly to $90,000 from $75,000 for the
respective first quarters of 1998 and 1997. Gross charged off loans for the
first quarter were $21,210 offset by recoveries of $2,493, resulting in an
annualized net charge-off rate of .04% of total loans. This compares to a net
charge-off during the same period last year of $3,604. At March 31, 1998, the
Company had aggregate non-accrual loans of $492,448 compared to $272,949 at
December 31, 1997. The ratio of non-performing loans (including loans 90 days or
more past due and still accruing) to total outstanding loans was 0.29% at March
31, 1998 compared to 0.15% at December 31, 1997.

Other income increased $688,557 to $1,714,568 for the three month period ended
March 31, 1998 from $1,026,011 in the comparable period last year. The
substantial improvement in this category is primarily attributable to the
establishment of two new subsidiaries in 1997 which are now fully functioning,
TIB Investment & Insurance Center, Inc. and TIB Government Loan Specialists,
Inc. Retail sales of investment products brought in commissions to the Company
of $80,889 during the first quarter of 1998 as compared to $5,311 for the first
quarter of 1997. Gains on the sale of government guaranteed loans went from
$15,669 during the first quarter of 1997 to $349,289 during the first quarter of
1998. Other expense increased 25.8% in the first three months of 1998 as
compared to the prior year period. The personnel and other costs associated with
the two new subsidiaries of the Bank account for the majority of the increase in
this category.

Total assets at March 31, 1998 were $313,553,404, up from total assets of
$277,958,820 at December 31, 1997. Loans net of deferred loan fees increased
$1,570,824 for the first quarter of 1998 from year end 1997. Also, in the same
period, federal funds sold increased $14,515,000 and investment securities
increased $13,360,253. These increases were funded by a deposit increase of
$32,806,703.

At March 31, 1998, the Company had $748,016 in short-term borrowings compared to
$2,007,178 at year end December 31, 1997. Short-term borrowings include $170,622
in securities sold under agreements to repurchase and $577,394 in Treasury tax
deposits. This decrease in short-term borrowings reflects the effects of
seasonal inflows of deposits along with strong growth in new accounts.

The Company is currently addressing a universal situation commonly referred to
as the "Year 2000 Problem." The Year 2000 Problem relates to the inability of
certain computer software programs and equipment to properly recognize and
process date-sensitive information relative to the year 2000 and beyond. During
1997, the Company developed a plan to devote the necessary resources to identify
and modify systems impacted by the Year 2000 problem, or implement new systems
to become year 2000 compliant in a timely manner. The cost of executing this
plan is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's results of
operations or financial condition.

TIB Bank has signed a definitive agreement to acquire the Homestead banking
facilities and Homestead account base of Coconut Grove Bank, subject to
regulatory approval. The branch, which has deposits of roughly $12 million, is
located in South Dade County in the heart of Homestead at the corner of Campbell
and Krome Avenue. The acquisition will be TIB's second Homestead facility, an
office building is being converted to a bank branch and is expected to open
around mid year 1998. The extensive range of products and services is expected
to be well received in Homestead and South Dade.

CAPITAL ADEQUACY

Federal banking regulators have established certain capital adequacy standards
required to be maintained by banks and bank holding companies. These regulations
establish minimum requirements for risk-based capital of 4% for core capital
(tier I), 8% for total risk-based capital and 3% for the leverage ratio. At
March 31, 1998, the Company's tier I risk-based capital was 12.4% and total
risk-based capital was 13.5%, compared to 12.7% and 13.8% at year-ended December
31, 1997, respectively. At March 31, 1998 the Company's leverage ratio was 8.6%
compared to 9.5% at December 31, 1997. This change is due to strong deposit
growth exceeding a smaller increase in retained earnings.

The Company does not have any commitments which it believes would reduce its
capital to levels inconsistent with the regulatory definition of a `well
capitalized' financial institution.

LIQUIDITY

The goal of liquidity management is to ensure the availability of an adequate
level of funds to meet the loan demand and deposit withdrawal needs of the
Company's customers. The Company does not anticipate any events which would
require liquidity beyond that which is available through deposit growth, federal
funds balances, or investment portfolio maturities. The Company actively manages
the levels, types and maturities of earning assets in relation to the sources
available to fund current and future needs to ensure that adequate funding will
be available at all times.
