ITEM NO. 2 MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
The following discussion and analysis is intended to assist in
understanding the financial condition and the results of operations of
the Company. State of Franklin Savings Bank (the "Bank") and State of
Franklin Leasing Corporation (the "Leasing Company") represents
virtually all of the assets of State of Franklin Bancshares, Inc. (the
"Company"). The Company places an emphasis on an integrated approach
to its balance sheet management. Significant balance sheet components
of investment securities, loans and sources of funds are managed in an
integrated manner with the management of interest rate risk,
liquidity, and capital. These components are examined below.

<PAGE> 10
BALANCE SHEET REVIEW
At September 30, 1999, assets of State of Franklin Bancshares, Inc.
totaled $152.3 million reflecting an increased $34.2 million or 29%
since December 31, 1998. The growth in assets has been funded
primarily by a $33.7 million increase in deposits.
LOANS
Loans outstanding totaled $106.6 million at September 30, 1999. This
represented an increase of 25% from the December 31, 1998 outstanding
loans of $85.2 million.
Commercial loans increased $9.1 million at September 30, 1999, an
increase of 34.4% from $26.6 million at December 31, 1998. Real estate
construction lending totaled $25.2 million compared with $22 million
at December 31, 1998, reflecting an increase of $3.2 million or 14.6%.
Consumer loans of $9.9 million at September 30, 1999 increased 28.6%
from $7.7 million at December 31, 1998. During the first nine months
of 1999, first mortgage residential loans increased $6.6 million or
18.6% to $41.8 million at September 30, 1999. The loan portfolio mix
at September 30, 1999 consists of 36% residential mortgages, 31%
commercial, 22% real estate construction, and 9% consumer loans.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
Investment securities totaled $34.3 million at September 30, 1999. The
majority of the holdings are backed by U. S. Government or Federal
Agency guarantees limiting the credit risk associated with these
securities. At September 30, 1999, approximately $21.3 million of
investment securities were held as available-for-sale compared to
$12.2 million at December 31, 1998. This $9.1 million increase, in
addition to a $13 million increase in investments held-to-maturity,
was funded in part from a $10.1 million reduction in fed funds and
short-term interest bearing deposits.
NON-PERFORMING ASSETS
There were no non-performing assets or nonaccrual loans at September
30, 1999 and December 31, 1998. The allowance for possible loan losses
was $818,000 at September 30, 1999 compared with $630,000 at year end
1998. Management believes the allowance for possible loan losses is
adequate to provide for potential loan losses.
DEPOSITS
Total deposits at September 30, 1999 of $130 million, represented an
increase of $33.6 million or a 34.9% increase from $96.4 million at
December 31, 1998. Non-interest bearing demand deposits totaled $7.4
million at September 30, 1999, an increase of $1.9 million from
December 31, 1998. Interest bearing deposits increased $31.8 million
to $122.6 million at September 30, 1999.
CAPITAL
Equity capital at September 30, 1999 was $11.8 million. At September
30, 1999, all capital ratios were in excess of the regulatory
minimums, with the Bank's Tier 1, total risk-based, and leverage
ratios of 12.50%, 13.64% and 8.02%, respectively.
LIQUIDITY
The purpose of liquidity management is to ensure that there is
sufficient cash flow to satisfy demands for credit, deposit
withdrawals, and other corporate needs. Traditional sources of
liquidity include asset maturities and growth in core deposits. Other
sources of funds such as securities sold under agreements to
repurchase, negotiable certificates of deposit and other liabilities
are sources of liquidity that the Company has not significantly used.
The Company had unused sources of liquidity in the form of unused
federal funds lines of credit and a line of credit with the Federal
Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati totaling $22 million at September 30,
1999.

On October 4, 1999, the Company filed a registration statement on Form
SB-1 with the SEC for the purpose of offering up to 555,555 shares of
its common stock at a per share price of $13.50. This offering will
begin only after the SEC has declared the registration statement
effective.
EARNINGS REVIEW
The Company had net income of $252,000 for the three months ending
September 30, 1999, compared with $65,430 for the same period last
year, resulting in an increase of 286%. Net income of the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 was $647,000, an increase of $425,000 or 191%
over the six months ended September 30, 1998 total net income of
$222,000. Net income per diluted share was $0.57 compared to earnings
per share of $0.20 in 1998. Return on average assets was .63% and the
return on average equity was 7.46% for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1999.
Noninterest income increased $97,000, or 31.2%, with other fees and
service charges, net gains on loans sold and insurance commissions
responsible for most of the increase over the nine months ended
September 30, 1998. Noninterest expense was $2.2 million for the 1999
period, an increase of 26.1% over the 1998 period, primarily resulting
from increased salaries and benefits, data processing, and furniture
and equipment expense.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Interest income and interest expense both increased from 1998 to 1999
resulting primarily from the increases in both earning assets and
interest bearing liabilities. Net interest income of $1.1 million for
the three months ending September 30, 1999 reflects an increase of
$356,000 or 45.9% over the same period a year ago. Net interest income
of $3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 was up $1
million or 50% over the same period in 1998. For the nine months
ending September 30, 1999, average earning assets increased $37.5
million or 40% while average interest bearing liabilities increased
$30.1 million or 34% compared with the same period in 1998. Average
earning asset yield declined 23 basis points to 7.63% while the cost
on interest bearing liabilities declined 18 basis points.
Consequently, the net interest margin based on average earning assets
increased to 3.09% for the nine months ending September 30, 1999
compared with 2.95% for the same period in 1998.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
During the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the provision for
possible loan losses was $190,000 compared with $213,000 for the same
period last year. Loan charge-offs for the nine months ended September
30, 1999, were $1,000 compared with no charge-offs in 1998. The
allowance for possible loan losses represented .77% of total loans,
net of mortgage loans held-for-sale, at September 30, 1999, compared
to .74% at September 30, 1998. Management considers the allowance for
loan losses to be adequate to cover losses inherent in the loan
portfolio.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, the provision for
federal and state income taxes was $359,000, an increase of $239,000
from 1998, primarily due to the increase in income before income
taxes.
NONINTEREST INCOME
The Company's noninterest income was $406,000 during the nine months
ended September 30, 1999, an increase of $97,000 or 31.2% over the
comparable 1998 period. The increase was attributable to increases in
other fees and service charges, net gains on loans sold, insurance
commissions, and rental income of $54,000, $53,000, $6,000, and
$17,000, respectively, which were offset by decreases in net gain on
sale and maturity of securities and other income of $26,000 and
$8,000, respectively.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense totaled $766,000 for the three month period ending
September 30, 1999, an increase of $105,000 or
11
<PAGE> 12
16%. For the nine month period ending September 30, 1999, noninterest
expense was up $462,000 or 26% over the same period in 1998. The
increases were a result primarily of growth in both the loan and
deposit functions of the organization. Compensation and related
benefits, data processing expense, and other operating expenses, which
include postage, printing and supplies, and telephone expense, reflect
the growth in the customer base and the general increased size of the
organization.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
The Year 2000 poses challenges to the banking industry. Many experts
believe that even the most prepared organizations may encounter some
implementation problems. The federal banking agencies are concerned
that financial institutions avoid major disruptions to service and
operations. All banks are required to have an action plan to address
Year 2000 issues which must include an indication of management
awareness of the problems and the commitment to solutions;
identification of external risks; and operational issues that are
relevant to a bank's Year 2000 planning.
The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council ("FFIEC") has
issued guidelines and target time frames to accomplish critical
actions concerning Year 2000 compliance:
-- By September 30, 1997, all banks should have identified affected
applications and databases. Mission critical applications should
be identified and an action plan set for Year 2000 work.
-- By December 31, 1997, code enhancements and revisions, hardware
upgrades, and other associated changes should be largely
completed by all banks. In addition, for mission critical
applications, programming changes should be largely completed and
testing should be well underway.
-- Between January 1, 1999 and December 31, 1999, banks should be
testing and implementing their Year 2000 conversion programs.
External factors which may adversely affect the Company include
reliance on vendors, such as third-party data processing services and
software and hardware vendors; electronic data-sensitive exchange
among other financial institutions which may not be Year 2000
compliant; its corporate customers and other debtors.
We have been assessing our state of readiness by evaluating our
information technology ("IT") and non-IT systems. IT systems commonly
include data processing, accounting and telephone systems. With
respect to our IT systems, we estimate that our Year 2000
identification, assessment and remediation efforts are substantially
complete. During 1999, further testing will be carried out in order to
ensure that all systems are working properly. We have assessed our
Year 2000 status in regard to non-IT systems and have determined that
no material risk exists.
We have communicated with our significant vendors in order to
determine the extent to which interfaces with such entities are
vulnerable to Year 2000 issues and whether the products and services
purchased from such entities are Year 2000 compliant. We have received
either verbal or written assurance from these vendors that they expect
to address all their significant Year 2000 issues on a timely basis.
With respect to significant borrowers and depositors, we do not
anticipate any material Year 2000 issues.
We require all commercial loan applicants to complete a Year 2000
questionnaire prior to our approval of loan requests. We believe the
most reasonable likely worst-case Year 2000 scenario would be a
failure of our data processing, accounting and telephone systems. We
have contingency plans in place in the event these systems fail. Our
employees have engaged in practice drills which include manual
procedures to complete most system functions.
The Company anticipates total expenses relating to Year 2000 issues
not to exceed $25,000 with approximately $4,000 remaining for staff
training and customer awareness.
