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 three months ended June 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 June 30, 2000  consolidated
     financial statements.


NOTE 4  LAND  BUILDINGS  AND  EQUIPMENT
------  -------------------------------

     The  Savings  Bank  has  purchased   additional  property  near  Kingsport,
     Tennessee  in  Sullivan  County  and will be  constructing  a fifth  branch
     location  scheduled for  completion in November of the current year.  Fixed

     EMPLOYEE  STOCK  OWNERSHIP  PLAN

     The Company has an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) for those employees
     who meet the  eligibility  requirements  of the plan.  During 2000 the ESOP
     purchased 44,444  additional shares at $13.50 with financing by a loan from
     the Company.

     ESOP  shares  are  maintained  in a suspense  account  until  released  and
     allocated  to  participants'  accounts.  The  release  of  shares  from the
     suspense  account is based on the principal  paid in the year in proportion
     to the total of current year and remaining  outstanding debt. Allocation of
     released shares to participants' accounts is done as of December 31. Shares
     allocated and remaining in suspense were as follows:

We  have reviewed the accompanying consolidated statement of financial condition
of  State  of Franklin Bancshares, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2000 and
the  related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity,
and  cash flows for the periods ended June 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 is 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
     sources 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 June 30,  2000,  assets of State of Franklin  Bancshares,  Inc.  totaled
     $179.2  million  reflecting  an  increase  of $19.0  million  or 12%  since
     December  31,  1999.  The growth in assets has been funded  primarily by an
     $9.9 million increase in deposits,  a $7.1 million increase in Federal Home
     Loan Bank advances, and a $2.2 million increase in stockholders' equity.


     LOANS
     -----

     Loans outstanding totaled $125.6 million at June 30, 2000. This represented
     an increase of 9.8% from the December 31, 1999 outstanding  loans of $114.4
     million.

     Commercial  loans  increased  $3.8 million at June 30, 2000, an increase of
     9.0% 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 15.6%.  Consumer  loans of
     $10.3 million at June 30, 2000 increased $585,000 or 6.0% from $9.7 million
     at December 31, 1999.  During the first six months of 2000,  first mortgage
     residential  loans  increased  $6.6 million or 15% to $50.3 million at June
     30,  2000.  The  loan  portfolio  mix at  June  30,  2000  consists  of 37%
     residential mortgages, 34% commercial, 20% real estate construction, and 9%
     consumer loans.

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

     Investment  securities totaled $36.3 million at June 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 June 30,
     2000,  approximately  $22.3 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 June 30, 2000
     compared  with  $221,781 at December 31, 1999.  The  allowance for possible
     loan losses was $896,796 at June 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 June 30, 2000 of $142.1 million,  represented an increase
     of $9.9  million or a 7.5%  increase  from $132.2  million at December  31,
     1999. Non-interest bearing demand deposits totaled $9.4 million at June 30,
     2000, an increase of $1.6 million from December 31, 1999.  Interest bearing
     deposits increased $8.3 million to $132.8 million at June 30, 2000.

     CAPITAL
     -------

     Equity  capital for the Savings Bank at June 30, 2000 was $14  million.  At
     June  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 13.08%, 14.02% and 8.60%, 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 June 30, 2000, was
     $15.7 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 form
     of  unused  federal  funds  lines of credit  and a line of credit  with the
     Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati totaling $25 million at June 30, 2000.


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

     The Company had net income of $375,345 for the three months ending June 30,
     2000, compared with $215,706 for the same period last year, resulting in an
     increase of 74%. For the six month period ending June 30, 2000,  net income
     was $703,431 compared with $394,779 the first six months of 1999 reflecting
     an increase  of 78%.  Net income per  diluted  share was $0.53  compared to
     earnings per share of $0.35 for the first six months  ending June 30, 1999.
     Return on average  assets  was .83% and the  return on  average  equity was
     10.77% for the six month period ended June 30, 2000, compared with .60% and
     6.81%, respectively, for the same period in 1999.

     Noninterest income declined $6,062, or 2%, during the six months ended June
     30, 2000,  compared the same period last year due to 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.  Insurance commission income, rental income, and gains on
     security  sales  also  declined  in the six  months  ended  June 31,  2000,
     compared with the same period a year ago. Partially offsetting the declines
     was  an  increase  in  service  charges  and  fees  on  deposit   accounts.
     Noninterest  expense was $1.7  million  for the six months  ending June 30,
     2000,  an increase of 13% over the 1999 period,  primarily  resulting  from
     increased salaries and benefits, furniture and equipment expense, and other
     general operating expenses.

     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 $2.6 million for the six months
     ending June 30, 2000  reflects an increase of $669,358 or 36% over the same
     period a year ago. For the six months ending June 30, 2000, average earning
     assets  increased  $34.7  million  or 28% while  average  interest  bearing
     liabilities  increased  $31.7  million,  also 28%,  compared  with the same
     period in 1999.  Average  earning asset yield  increased 36 basis points to
     8.06%  while the cost on  interest  bearing  liabilities  increased 7 basis
     points.  Consequently,  the net interest  margin  based on average  earning
     assets  increased to 3.23% for the six months ending June 30, 2000 compared
     with 3.08% for the same period in 1999.

<PAGE>
     PROVISION  FOR  LOAN  LOSSES
     ----------------------------

     During the six months ended June 30, 2000,  the provision for possible loan
     losses was $125,175  compared  with $119,146 for the same period last year.
     Loan  charge-offs  for the six months  ended June 30,  2000,  were  $38,682
     compared  with $1,016  during the same period in 1999.  The  allowance  for
     possible loan losses represented .71% of total loans, net of mortgage loans
     held-for-sale,  at June  30,  2000,  compared  to .76%  at June  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 six months ended June 30, 2000, the provision for federal and state
     income taxes was $357,653, an increase of $159,785 from 1999, primarily due
     to the increase in income before income taxes.

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

     The Company's  noninterest  income was $283,603 during the six months ended
     June 30, 2000, a decline of $6,062 or 2% from the  comparable  1999 period.
     The decline was  attributable  to declines in net gains on loans sold,  net
     gain on sale of  securities,  insurance  commissions,  and rental income of
     $54,621, $12,724, $3,057, and $18,221,  respectively,  which were partially
     offset by an increase in other fees and service charges of $82,561.

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

     Noninterest expense totaled $805,521 for the three month period ending June
     30, 2000,  an increase of $71,710 or 10%.  For the six month period  ending
     June 30,  2000,  noninterest  expense  was up $188,830 or 32% 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.
