                                   (Unaudited)

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DCB
Financial Corp. ("the Company or DCB") and its wholly owned subsidiary, The
Delaware County Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank"), and the Bank's wholly-owned
subsidiaries, DCB Corporation and 362 Corp. All material intercompany accounts
and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

On February 26, 1997, shareholders of the Bank approved the formation of a
holding company, DCB. The formation of DCB took place on March 14, 1997 through
an exchange of three DCB common shares (no par value) for each share of the
Bank. This internal reorganization was accounted for similar to a pooling of
interests, whereby the historical carrying values of the Bank's assets and
liabilities were carried forward to the consolidated financial statements.

These interim financial statements are prepared without audit and reflect all
adjustments of a normal recurring nature that, in the opinion of management, are
necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of DCB at March
31, 1997, and its results of operations and cash flows for the periods
presented. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not purport to
contain all the necessary financial disclosures required by generally accepted
accounting principles that might otherwise be necessary in the circumstances.
The Annual Report for DCB for the year ended December 31, 1996 contains
consolidated financial statements and related notes that should be read in
conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The results
of operations for the interim periods reported herein are not necessarily
indicative of operations to be expected for the entire year.

ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS: Effective January 1, 1997, Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 125, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of
Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, provides guidance as to the
accounting and financial reporting for transfers and servicing of financial
assets and extinguishments of liabilities. SFAS No. 125 provides standards for
distinguishing transfers of financial assets that are sales from transfers that
are secured borrowings. While SFAS No. 125 supersedes SFAS No. 122, Accounting
for Mortgage Servicing Rights, it only marginally modifies the accounting and
disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 122, which was adopted in 1996. The adoption
of SFAS No. 125 did not have a material impact on DCB's financial statements on
January 1, 1997.

INCOME TAXES: The provision for income taxes is based upon the effective income
tax rate expected to be applicable for the entire year.

EARNINGS AND DIVIDENDS PER SHARE: Earnings per common share is based on the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods
presented. All per share data has been restated to reflect the shares issued in
the internal reorganization discussed above. The weighted average number of
shares outstanding was 4,273,200 for all periods presented.

NOTE 5 - CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK

The Bank grants residential, consumer, and commercial loans to customers located
primarily in Delaware, Union and surrounding counties in Ohio. Most loans are
secured by specific items of collateral including business assets, consumer
assets and residences.

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the
normal course of business to meet financing needs of its customers. The contract
amount of these instruments are not included in the consolidated financial
statements. At March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the contract amount of
these instruments, which primarily include commitments to extend credit and
standby letters of credit, totaled approximately $49,896,000 and $47,067,000,
respectively. Of these commitments, fixed rate commitments totaled $2,183,000
and $3,163,000 at March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1997, respectively. Since many
commitments to make loans expire without being used, the amount does not
represent future cash commitments.

The exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to
the financial instrument for commitments to make loans and lines and letters of
credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. DCB
follows the same credit policy to make such commitments as is followed for those
loans recorded in the financial statements. In management's opinion, these
commitments represent normal banking transactions and no material losses are
expected to result therefrom. Collateral obtained upon exercise of the
commitments is determined using management's credit evaluations of the borrower
and may include real estate and/or business or consumer assets.

INTRODUCTION

The following discussion focuses on the consolidated financial condition of DCB
Financial Corp. (the Company) at March 31, 1997, compared to December 31, 1996,
and the consolidated results of operations for the quarterly period ending March
31, 1997 compared to the same period in 1996. The purpose of this discussion is
to provide the reader with a more thorough understanding of the consolidated
financial statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the
interim consolidated financial statements and related footnotes.

The registrant is not aware of any trends, events or uncertainties that will
have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on the liquidity,
capital resources or operations except as discussed herein. Also, the Registrant
is not aware of any current recommendations by regulatory authorities that would
have such effect if implemented. The Company cautions that any forward looking
statements contained in this report, in a report incorporated by reference to
this report or made by management of the Company involves risks and
uncertainties and are subject to change based on various important factors.
Actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied.
Additionally, the Company claims no notification responsibilities should their
opinions change from those expressed herein.


FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets increased to $328,697 at March 31, 1997 compared to $319,117 at
December 31, 1996, an increase of 3%. The growth is the result of strong market
demand in both loans and deposits.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $8,785, from $32,359 to $23,574 during the
first quarter 1997. Cash was invested into higher earning loans and securities.
Cash and equivalents at March 31, 1997 represented 7% of total assets. The
Company has the ability to borrow up to approximately $21,000 from the Federal
Home Loan Bank and has various fed fund lines, should it need to supplement its
liquidity needs due to loan demand or investment opportunities.

Total investment securities increased $4,474 from $79,045 to $83,519. Proceeds
from maturities, sales and repayments were used to purchase new securities. Two
securities were called by issuer with minimal loss. The Company purchases
primarily U.S. Treasury Notes, U.S. Agency bonds, municipal bonds and
mortgage-backed securities.

The Company purchased a bankers' acceptance during the first quarter of 1997 to
match a large public deposit of like amount and term.

                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                  (Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Loan growth continued to be strong as total loans increased 4.2%, or $8,652 from
$203,592 to $212,244. Growth was seen in nearly all categories; however, the
largest increases were seen in real estate loans. Construction loans, both
residential and commercial, increased $2,722 or 11.6%, from December 31, 1996 to
March 31, 1997. Strong population growth in the Company's market along with good
weather conditions contributed to the increase.

The commercial and agricultural real estate portfolio grew $5,515 from $45,487
to $51,002, or 12.1%. Again, the Company has been able to take advantage of a
strong local economy and the large number of businesses moving into the market.
Lending is not concentrated into any one industry.

The gross loan to deposit ratio increased from 73% at December 31, 1996 to 74%
at March 31, 1997 as loans grew at a slightly higher rate than deposits.

The allowance for loan losses remained relatively unchanged. As a percent of
loans, the reserve decreased from .94% of gross loans to .91%. Loans past due 90
days, plus loans on nonaccrual status were $990, or .49% of gross loans at
December 31, 1996 compared to $658, or .31% at March 31, 1997. These
nonperforming loans have been considered in management's analysis of the
allowance for loan losses. The allowance was 292% of nonperforming loans at
March 31, 1997 compared to 194% at December 31, 1996.

Total deposits increased 2.8%, or $7,747 from $279,091 at December 31, 1996 to
$286,838 at March 31, 1997. This increase was made up of an increase of $3,195
(7.3%) in noninterest-bearing deposits and an increase of $4,552 (1.9%) in
interest-bearing deposits. Management believes this deposit growth is fairly
permanent as it is comprised almost equally of public and private funds.

Short-term borrowings consist primarily of a $5,000 advance from the Federal
Home Loan Bank. The Company borrowed the funds in the fall of 1996 to fund
delayed construction loan advances, due to a wet spring and summer in 1996.
Construction loan repayments were reinvested in other loans and management
elected to renew the advance. Repayment or renewal terms will be evaluated at
next maturity.

Total shareholders' equity increased $545 due primarily to earnings retained,
offset by increased dividends paid during the quarter of $499 and an after-tax
market value decrease in the available-for-sale securities portfolio of $150.
Beginning in May 1997, the Company plans to make quarterly dividend payments.

The components of shareholders' equity changed during the quarter with the
formation of the holding company. Shareholders of The Delaware County Bank &
Trust Company (the "Bank") received three shares of Company stock, no par value,
for each share of Bank stock owned, which carried a $1 par value. This exchange
resulted in the reclassification of

additional paid-in capital to common stock. The holding company was formed to
allow management to pursue other forms of financial services or acquisitions of
full service banking operations or branches of other organizations.

The Company and its subsidiary meet all regulatory capital requirements. Its
ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets was 15.5% at March 31, 1997,
while its Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 14.7%. Regulatory minimums call
for a total risk-based capital ratio of 8%, at least half of which must be Tier
1 capital. The Company's leverage ratio of 10.1% at March 31, 1997 exceeded the
regulatory minimum of 3% to 5%.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was $1,194, a $45 decrease
from the same period in 1996. Earnings per share, adjusted to reflect the
three-for-one stock split, was $0.28 per share for the period ending March 31,
1997 compared to $0.29 per share for the three months ending March 31, 1996.

Total interest income increased $677 to $6,291 for the first quarter 1997
compared to $5,614 for the first quarter 1996, a 12.1% increase. Increases were
seen in both interest on loans and investments. The increase in loan interest
income is due to volume, as competitive pressures have kept yields from
increasing. The increase in the investment portfolio is due to both rate and
volume increases.

Net interest income increased to $3,404 through March 31, 1997 compared to
$3,260 through March 31, 1996, an increase of $144 or 4.4%. Interest expense on
deposits increased $466, or nearly 20%, over the same period in 1996. The
increased expense is due to both deposit growth and an increase in rates.
Management has elected to offer attractive, competitive rates to retain
deposits, provided the funds can be invested in income earning assets with
adequate yields. Other interest expense also increased from $20 to $87, due to
increased short-term borrowings.

The provision for loan losses increased to $96 for the first three months of
1997 from $16 for the first three months of 1996. The increased provision was
needed to maintain adequate reserves due to loan growth, as indicators of loan
portfolio quality remain relatively stable.

Total other income increased $84, or 12.1%, in the first quarter 1997 over the
first quarter 1996. The increase is due to increased fee income from the
Company's data service center, increased gains on loan sales (both
service-released and service-retained), and increased cash management fee
income.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                  (Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Other expenses increased $195, or 9.2%, in the first quarter 1997 compared to
the first quarter 1996. Increases were primarily experienced in human resource
expenses, occupancy expense and equipment expense, where increases totaled $158.
These were planned increases relating to facilities and branch improvements and
additions. During the first quarter 1997, the Company moved most of its
operations to a new leased facility. Other departmental moves to the new
facility are planned as space becomes available. Once this additional space is
fully occupied by the Company, annual lease expense will be approximately $80.
Management believes the expansion of the Company's operations facilities was
necessary to support growth. The Company is also planning the opening of two new
branches, which will also be leased facilities. The first branch is scheduled to
open in June 1997 and the second is planned for the last quarter of 1997. The
two new branches are strategically located in areas of Delaware County currently
experiencing strong population growth rates. With its broad line of products and
services, the Company can meet the needs of the market, obtain the business
needed to sustain the new branches and contribute to overall profitability.
Total annual lease expense related to the new branches is anticipated to be
approximately $170.

The provision for income taxes remained stable at $584 for the three months
ended March 31, 1997, compared to $586 for the same period in 1996. Effective
tax rates were 32.8% and 32.1% for 1997 and 1996, respectively.


FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGES

In March 1997, the accounting requirements for calculating earnings per share
were revised. Basic earnings per share for 1997 and later will be calculated
solely on average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share will
reflect potential dilution from common stock equivalents, such as stock options.
Since the Company currently has no common stock equivalents, the new calculation
method will not impact its earnings per share.
