ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

    MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION.


    NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED WITH NINE MONTHS ENDED
    SEPTEMBER 30, 1998.

    Balance Sheet

    Total Assets at September 30, 1999 were $41.4 million compared to $41.7
million at September 30, 1998. Total loans increased to $25.9 million at
September 30, 1999 from $21.7 million at September 30, 1998, while securities
decreased to $11.0 million from $13.2 million and deposits decreased to $37.2
million from $37.3 million as of those respective dates. Shareholders' equity in
Bancshares increased to $2.9 million at September 30, 1999 from $2.8 million at
September 30, 1998. Bancshares' shareholders' equity in its wholly owned bank
subsidiary, Guaranty Bank & Trust Company ("Guaranty Bank"), was $2.9 million at
September 30, 1999, an increase from $2.8 million at September 30, 1998, as a
result of the earnings of Guaranty Bank less dividend payments by Guaranty Bank
to Bancshares and a change from an unrealized gain to an unrealized loss in
available for sale securities.

    Income

    The income of Bancshares is ordinarily attributable almost entirely to
dividends on earnings of Guaranty Bank. Consolidated net income of Bancshares is
generally determined by deduction of interest and expenses incurred by
Bancshares from the net income earned by Guaranty Bank.

    Income for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was $280 thousand
compared to $279.7 thousand during the same period in 1998. Interest income
decreased by $12.8 thousand for the nine month period ended June 30, 1999
compared to the same period in 1998. Non-interest income totaled $245.9 thousand
for the nine month period, compared to $258 thousand for the same period in
1998. Interest expense decreased to $875.8 thousand during the nine months ended
September 30, 1999, down from $911 thousand during the same period in 1998.
Non-interest expense decreased to $1.21 million from $1.22 million during those
periods.


    SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 COMPARED WITH DECEMBER 31, 1998

    Balance Sheet

    Total assets decreased to $41.4 million at September 30, 1999, a decrease of
1.3% from $41.97 million at December 31, 1998. Total loans increased by $4
million, or 18.2%, to $25.9 million at September 30, 1999 compared to $21.9
million at December 31, 1998 primarily as a result of an increase in
agricultural lending. Securities declined $3.5 million to $11 million at
September 30, 1999, down from $14.5 million at December 31, 1998, primarily as a
result of a need to fund loans.

    Total deposits increased slightly to $37.3 million at September 30, 1999, a
 .2% increase from $37.2 million at December 31, 1998. Non-interest bearing
deposits decreased at a 3.4% rate, compared to a .7% growth in interest bearing
deposits. During the first nine months of 1999, shareholders' equity in
Bancshares increased to $2.9 million, an increase of $100 thousand, due to a
change from an unrealized gain to an unrealized loss on available for sale
securities and the earnings of Guaranty Bank for the nine months.

    LOAN LOSS PROVISION

    As a result of management's assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for
possible loan losses, Guaranty Bank recorded a provision for loan losses of
$45.7 thousand at September 30, 1999. The reserve for possible loan losses
totaled $296.5 thousand at September 30, 1999, 1.14% of total loans, compared to
$274 thousand, or 1.25% of total loans, at December 31, 1998 and $274 thousand
or 1.26% at September 30, 1998. On a monthly basis, Guaranty Bank management
performs an analysis to determine the adequacy of the reserve for possible loan
losses. Management is projecting a reserve of 1.25% for year end 1999 in order
to be prepared for possible problems associated with Y2K.

    INCOME TAXES

    Bancshares had a net operating loss carryforward at December 31, 1998 of
approximately $38 thousand. That loss carryforward was used in the first quarter
of 1999. Bancshares is, therefore, taxable for the remainder of 1999.


PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

    ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

    Neither Bancshares nor Guaranty Bank is party to any litigation other than
routine litigation arising from regular business activities incident to
furnishing financial services.


    ITEM 2.  YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE

    Bancshares and Guaranty Bank's Boards of Directors and Senior Management are
responsible for the overall process and assurances that sufficient resources are
available to ensure the success of the Year 2000 effort and the business
resumption contingency plan. Guaranty Bank established a Year 2000 Project Team
to deal with the issues of Y2K and delegated responsibilities to the team for
coordinating Y2K initiatives.

    The objective of Bancshares and Guaranty Bank is to be Y2K ready by December
31, 1999 within the regulatory guidelines, with minimal impact to the bank's
customers and operations. Guaranty Bank has identified all mission critical
components of Y2K related directly and indirectly to its operations. In the
process the bank has:

    o        Completed the Assessment Inventory and Renovation Phase, replacing
             and/or upgrading all personal computers, modems, and hardware which
             were not Y2K ready. This was completed March 1998.

    o        Performed testing on software that is used to ensure correct date
             related calculations, correct related decisions, correct date
             related sorting, and correct date related reporting.

    o        Contacted third party vendors to follow their Y2K projects to make
             sure there will be no disruption of services they provide to the
             bank. The bank has worked with its vendors and has completed
             testing to ensure progress toward Y2K readiness. Testing with the
             bank's major vendor has determined there are no related issues
             outstanding. Continued testing will be done to ensure this status.

    o        Developed a bank wide Y2K Business Resumption Contingency Plan, so
             there will be no disruption of banking services to its customers or
             business partners. This plan addresses the cash and liquidity needs
             of the bank.

    The bank has determined that the potential consequences of Year 2000 will
not have a material effect on its business, results of operations, or financial
condition.

    To date the bank has incurred costs of approximately $75 thousand in its Y2K
efforts and anticipates no other major expenses.

    Focus for the rest of 1999 will be customer awareness.

    Guaranty Bank and Great Guaranty Bancshares are Y2K ready.
