NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - REVIEWED

NOTE 1  INCORPORATION AND OPERATIONS
------  ----------------------------

     State of Franklin  Bancshares,  Inc.  (Company) was incorporated  under the
     laws of the State of  Tennessee  for the  purpose of  becoming  the holding
     company of State of Franklin  Savings Bank (Savings Bank). The stockholders
     of the Savings Bank  exchanged  their shares for the shares of the Company,
     whereby the Savings  Bank became the  Company's  wholly  owned  subsidiary.
     State of Franklin Leasing Corporation (Leasing Corp) was incorporated under
     the laws of the State of Tennessee for the purpose of lease financing.  The
     Leasing Corp is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. John Sevier Title
     Services,  Inc.  (Title  Company)  is the wholly  owned  subsidiary  of the
     Savings Bank.


NOTE 2  BASIS OF PREPARATION
------  --------------------

     The accompanying  reviewed  consolidated  financial  statements include the
     accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries.  All significant intercompany
     accounts and transactions have been eliminated.  These financial statements
     were prepared in accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles
     for interim  financial  information and in accordance with the instructions
     for  Form  10-Q  SB.  Accordingly,  they  do not  include  all  disclosures
     necessary for a complete  presentation  of the  consolidated  statements of
     financial  condition,  income,  cash flows,  and  changes in  stockholders'
     equity  in  conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting   principles.
     However, all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary
     for the fair  presentation  of the interim  financial  statements have been
     included.  All such  adjustments  are of a  normal  recurring  nature.  The
     statement of  comprehensive  income for the nine months ended September 30,
     2000 is not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for
     the entire year.

     These consolidated  financial statements should be read in conjunction with
     the audited  consolidated  financial  statements  and notes thereto for the
     Company for the year ended December 31, 1999.


NOTE 3  RECLASSIFICATIONS
------  -----------------

     In instances where required,  amounts reported in prior period's  financial
     statements  included  herein  have  been  reclassified  to  put  them  on a
     comparable  basis  to the  amounts  reported  in  the  September  30,  2000
     consolidated financial statements.

We have reviewed the accompanying  consolidated statement of financial condition
of State of Franklin Bancshares,  Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2000
and the related  consolidated  statements  of income,  changes in  stockholders'
equity,  and cash flows for the periods  ended  September  30, 2000 and 1999, in
accordance  with  Statements on Standards  for  Accounting  and Review  Services
issued  by  the  American  Institute  of  Certified  Public   Accountants.   All
information included in these financial statements i s the representation of the
management of State of Franklin Bancshares, Inc.

A review consists principally of inquiries of State of Franklin Bancshares, Inc.
personnel  and  analytical   procedures   applied  to  financial   data.  It  is
substantially  less in scope than an audit in accordance with generally accepted
auditing  standards,  the  objective  of which is the  expression  of an opinion
regarding  the financial  statements  taken as a whole.  Accordingly,  we do not
express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material  modifications that should
be made to the  accompanying  financial  statements  in order  for them to be in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The  consolidated  statement of financial  condition as of December 31, 1999 and
the  consolidated  statement  of changes in retained  earnings for the year then
ended were audited by us, and we expressed an unqualified opinion on them in our
report dated March 15, 2000,  but we have not performed any auditing  procedures
since that date.

ITEM NO. 2  MANAGEMENT'S  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  (Savings  Bank)  and  State of
     Franklin Leasing Corporation (Leasing Corp) represents virtually all of the
     assets of State of Franklin Bancshares,  Inc. (Company). The Company places
     an emphasis on an  integrated  approach  to its balance  sheet  management.
     Significant  balance sheet components of investment  securities,  loans and
     source s of funds are managed in an integrated  manner with the  management
     of  interest  rate risk,  liquidity,  and  capital.  These  components  are
     examined below.


     BALANCE SHEET REVIEW
     --------------------

     At September 30, 2000, assets of State of Franklin Bancshares, Inc. totaled
     $192.0  million  reflecting  an  increase  of $31.9  million  or 20%  since
     December  31,  1999.  The growth in assets has been funded  primarily by an
     $18.8 million  increase in deposits,  a $10.3  million  increase in Federal
     Home Loan Bank  advances,  and a $2.8  million  increase  in  stockholders'
     equity.


     LOANS
     -----

     Loans  outstanding  totaled  $133.1  million at September  30,  2000.  This
     represented  an increase of 16.3% from the  December  31, 1999  outstanding
     loans of $114.4 million.

     Commercial  loans increased $7.0 million at September 30, 2000, an increase
     of 17% from $41.9  million at December 31, 1999.  Real estate  construction
     lending  totaled $27.2 million  compared with $23.5 million at December 31,
     1999,  reflecting  an increase of $3.7  million or 16%.  Consumer  loans of
     $10.2  million at  September  30, 2000  increased  $454,000 or 5% from $9.7
     million at December 31, 1999.  During the first nine months of 2000,  first
     mortgage residential loans increased $10.5 million or 24% to $54.3 mil lion
     at  September  30,  2000.  The loan  portfolio  mix at  September  30, 2000
     consists of 38%  residential  mortgages,  36%  commercial,  19% real estate
     construction, and 7% consumer loans.


     INVESTMENT SECURITIES
     ---------------------

     Investment  securities  totaled $46.2  million at September  30, 2000.  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, 2000,  approximately  $32.2 million of investment  securities
     were held as  available-for-sale  compared to $21.4 million at December 31,
     1999. Investments held-to-maturity remained unchanged at $14 million.


     NON-PERFORMING ASSETS
     ---------------------

     The bank had no non-performing  assets or nonaccrual loans at September 30,
     2000  compared  with  $221,781 at December  31,  1999.  The  allowance  for
     possible  loan losses was  $953,887 at  September  30, 2000  compared  with
     $810,303 at year end 1999.  Management  believes the allowance for possible
     loan losses is adequate to provide for potential loan losses.


     DEPOSITS
     --------

     Total  deposits at September  30, 2000 of $151.0  million,  represented  an
     increase  of $18.8  million  or a 14.2%  increase  from  $132.2  million at
     December  31,  1999.  Non-interest  bearing  demand  deposits  totaled $9.8
     million at September  30, 2000,  an increase of $2.1 million from  December
     31, 1999.  Interest  bearing  deposits  increased  $16.7  million to $141.2
     million at September 30, 2000.

     CAPITAL
     -------

     Equity  capital  for the  Savings  Bank at  September  30,  2000 was  $14.5
     million.  At September 30, 2000,  all capital  ratios were in excess of the
     regulatory minimums, with the Savings Bank's Tier 1, total risk-based,  and
     leverage ratios of 12.25%, 13.09% and 8.22%, respectively.

     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  became  effective
     November 12, 1999. At December 31, 1999,  111,092 shares had been sold with
     proceeds  totaling  $1.5  million.  At June 30,  2000,  closing date of the
     offering,  275,085 total shares have been sold,  generating $3.7 million in
     additional  capital.  Equity capital for the Company at September 30, 2000,
     was $16.3 million.


     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 for
     m 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,
     2000.


     EARNINGS REVIEW
     ----------------

     The  Company  had net  income  of  $396,291  for the  three  months  ending
     September  30, 2000,  compared with $252,426 for the same period last year,
     resulting in an increase of 57%. For the nine month period ending September
     30, 2000, net income was  $1,099,722  compared with $647,204 the first nine
     months of 1999  reflecting an increase of 70%. Net income per diluted share
     was $0.81 compared to earnings per share of $0.57 for the first nine months
     ending  September  30,  1999.  Return on  average  assets was .86% and th e
     return  on  average  equity  was  9.62%  for the nine  month  period  ended
     September  30, 2000,  compared with .63% and 7.46%,  respectively,  for the
     same period in 1999.

     Noninterest income increased  $25,107,  or 6%, during the nine months ended
     September  30, 2000,  compared the same period last year as a result of the
     net effect several  factors.  Gain on loans sold declined  $54,621 due to a
     decline in income generated by loans sold in the secondary  market.  Recent
     increases  in interest  rates have slowed the demand for  secondary  market
     loans and temporarily  eliminated the refinance  market.  Rental income and
     gains on security  sales also  declined in the nine months ended Septem ber
     30, 2000, compared with the same period a year ago. Offsetting the declines
     were an increase  in service  charges  and fees on deposit  accounts  and a
     slight increase in insurance commissions.

     Noninterest  expense was $2.5 million for the nine months ending  September
     30, 2000, an increase of 11% over the 1999 period, primarily resulting from
     increased salaries and benefits,  occupancy,  furniture and equipment, data
     processing, and other general operating expenses.  Partially offsetting the
     increases was a $34,803, or 35%, decline in advertising expense.


     NET INTEREST INCOME
     -------------------

     Interest  income and  interest  expense  both  increased  from 1999 to 2000
     resulting  primarily from the increases in both earning assets and interest
     bearing  liabilities.  Net  interest  income of $1.3  million for the three
     months  ended  September  30, 2000  reflects an increase of $193,820 or 17%
     over the same period last year.  For the nine months  ending  September 30,
     2000,  net  interest  income was $3.9  million,  reflecting  an increase of
     $863,178 or 29% over the same period a year ago. For the nine months ending
     Sep tember 30, 2000,  average earning assets increased $33.9 million or 26%
     while average interest bearing liabilities increased $30.7 million, or 26%,
     compared  with the  same  period  in  1999.  Average  earning  asset  yield
     increased  45 basis  points  to 8.13%  while the cost on  interest  bearing
     liabilities  increased  44 basis  points  to 5.49%.  Consequently,  the net
     interest margin based on average earning assets increased slightly to 3.16%
     for the nine months  ending  September 30, 2000 compared with 3.11% for the
     same period in 1999.

     PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
     -------------------------

     During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the provision for possible
     loan losses was $193,986  compared  with  $189,507 for the same period last
     year.  Loan  charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, were
     $50,402  compared with $1,016 during the same period in 1999. The allowance
     for possible loan losses  represented  .72% of total loans, net of mortgage
     loans  held-for-sale,  at September 30, 2000, compared to .77% at September
     30,  1999.  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, 2000, the provision for federal and
     state  income  taxes was  $548,162,  an  increase  of  $189,369  from 1999,
     primarily due to the increase in income before income taxes.


     NONINTEREST INCOME
     -------------------

     The Company's  noninterest income was $431,586 during the nine months ended
     September 30, 2000, an increase of $25,107 or 6% from the  comparable  1999
     period.  The increase  resulted from the net effect of declines in net gain
     on loans  sold,  net  gain on sale of  securities,  and  rental  income  of
     $54,892, $12,724, and $16,730,  respectively,  combined with an increase of
     $108,547 in other fees and service charges and a slight increase of $906 on
     insurance commissions.

     NONINTEREST EXPENSE
     --------------------

     Noninterest  expense  totaled  $819,054 for the three month  period  ending
     September 30, 2000, an increase of $53,089 or 7%. For the nine month period
     ending September 30, 2000,  noninterest expense was up $241,919 or 11% over
     the same period in 1999. The increases were a result primarily of growth in
     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.
