                  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                                 (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Effective May 18, 1999, Lebanon Citizens National Bank ("Lebanon Citizens"),
was reorganized into a one-bank holding company structure.  Substantially all
of the assets, liabilities and operations of LCNB Corp., the new consolidated
holding company, are attributable to its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lebanon
Citizens.  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of LCNB Corp. and Lebanon Citizens.  The financial
information prior to the reorganization consists of Lebanon Citizens.

The statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions
to Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.  In the opinion of management, the unaudited
consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of
normal, recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of
financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim
periods.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2000 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending
December 31, 2000.  These unaudited consolidated financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, accounting
policies and financial notes thereto included in LCNB Corp.'s 1999 Form 10-K
filed with the Commission.


NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  LCNB Corp.'s
capital structure includes no potential for dilution.  There are no warrants,
options or other arrangements that would increase the number of shares
outstanding.


NOTE 3 - OTHER DEVELOPMENTS
On April 11, 2000 Dakin Insurance Agency, Inc. was acquired and became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of LCNB Corp.  Under the terms of the agreement,
Dakin shareholders received 15,942 shares of LCNB Corp. common stock in a
Private offering  The transaction qualifies as a tax-free reorganization
and will be accounted for using the pooling method of accounting.

NOTE 3 - OTHER DEVELOPMENTS (continued)

The ability to complete this transaction is a result of the passage by
Congress of the Graham, Leach, Bliley (GLB) Act, which became effective
March 12, 2000.  The GLB Act permits bank holding companies and national
banks to own many types of non-banking subsidiaries such as insurance
agencies and securities brokerage firms.  The GLB Act allows a bank holding
company to become a financial holding company and to make non-bank
acquisitions.  On February 4, 2000, LCNB filed a notice of election to
become a financial holding company pursuant to the GLB Act, which
election was approved by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System on March 13, 2000 and effective April 11, 2000.

</TABLE>

Net interest income on a fully taxable basis for the first quarter of 2000
totaled $4.215 million, up $73 thousand, or 2%, from the first quarter of
1999. The $73 thousand increase in net interest income was primarily due
to a $7.8 million increase in average earning assets partially offset by
a $6.0 million increase in average interest bearing liabilities.

The net interest margin of 4.19% in the first quarter of 2000 equaled the
net interest margin for the first quarter of 1999.  The yield on interest
earning assets increased 36 basis points as a result of the increase in
higher yielding assets, primarily commercial and real estate loans, as well
as the general increase in market interest rates.  The cost of average
interest-bearing liabilities increased 44 basis points due to the general
increase in market interest rates.

Average interest-earning assets totaled $404.2 million for the first quarter
of 2000, up $7.8 million from the same period in 1999. The increase was
primarily attributable to increases in the commercial, real estate and
installment loan portfolios.  Average interest-bearing liabilities totaled
$339.3 million for the first quarter of 2000, up $5.5 million from the same
period in 1999.


PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The total provision for loan losses is determined based upon management's
evaluation as to the amount needed to maintain the allowance for credit losses
at a level considered appropriate in relation to the risk of losses inherent
in the portfolio.  The total loan loss provision and the other changes in the
allowance for loan losses are shown below.

</TABLE>

The increase in accruing loans which are past due 90 days or more is due
to a $272 thousand commercial loan which has financially strong guarantors
supporting the credit.  It is anticipated the borrowers will pay the loan
off in the second quarter of 2000.

NON-INTEREST INCOME
Non-interest income of $786 thousand increased $41 thousand, or 5.5% in the
first quarter of 2000 compared to the first quarter of 1999.  Trust income
of $275 thousand increased $60 thousand, or 27.9%, from the first quarter of
1999 due to an increase in the market value of assets under management on
which fees are based.  Service charges and fees decreased $5 thousand due
to a $69 thousand reduction in merchant credit card processing fees resulting
from the exiting of the business in the fourth quarter of 1999.  This decline
was substantially offset by increases in bank card-related fee income and
deposit account-related fees.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
Total non-interest expense increased $165 thousand, or 5.4%, in the first
quarter 2000 compared with the first quarter 1999.  The increase was due
primarily to labor costs, including pension and other benefits, relating
to salary increases.  Other expenses increased as a result of the public
filings required by the newly formed LCNB Corp. as well as acquisition
efforts in the Dakin Insurance Company transaction.  Additionally, other
expenses increased as a result of incremental telecommunication charges
related to upgrading of the branch communication system.

Total average assets decreased $3.4 million in the first quarter of 2000 from
the fourth quarter 1999.  Although total average assets declined, average
loans increased $6.5 million primarily due to continued growth in the real
estate and indirect installment loan portfolios, as well as the commercial
loan portfolio.  Total average assets increased $1.3 million in the first
quarter 2000 as compared to the third quarter 1999.  Average loans
outstanding, primarily real estate, commercial and indirect installment,
grew by $15.5 million and investments declined by $10.0 million as LCNB Corp.
continued to shift assets into the higher yielding loan portfolio.  Average
interest-bearing liabilities decreased $3.6 million from the fourth quarter of
1999.  Average noninterest-bearing deposits remained relatively stable in the
first quarter of 2000 when compared to the fourth quarter of 1999 but
increased $2.2 million from the third quarter of 1999.


REGULATORY CAPITAL
Lebanon Citizens and LCNB Corp. are required by regulators to meet certain
minimum levels of capital adequacy. These are expressed in the form of
certain ratios. Capital is separated into Tier I capital (essentially
shareholders'equity less goodwill and other intangibles) and Tier II capital
(essentially the allowance for loan losses limited to 1.25% of risk-weighted
assets). The first two ratios, which are based on the degree of credit risk
in Lebanon Citizens' assets, provide for weighting assets based on assigned
risk factors and include off-balance sheet items such as loan commitments
and stand-by letters of credit. The ratio of Tier I capital to risk-weighted
assets must be at least 4.0% and the ratio of Total capital (Tier 1 capital
plus Tier 2 capital) to risk-weighted assets must be at least 8.0%.  The
capital leverage ratio supplements the risk-based capital guidelines. Banks
and holding companies are required to maintain a minimum ratio of Tier 1
capital to adjusted quarterly average total assets of 3.0%. A summary of the
regulatory capital and capital ratios of LCNB Corp. follows:

LIQUIDITY
Liquidity is the ability to have funds available at all times to meet the
commitments of Lebanon Citizens.  Asset liquidity is provided by cash and
assets which are readily marketable or pledgeable or which will mature in the
near future.  Liquid assets included cash and deposits in banks, federal funds
sold and securities available for sale.  Liquidity is also provided by access
to core funding sources, primarily core depositors in the bank's trade area.
Lebanon Citizens does not solicit brokered deposits as a funding source.  The
liquidity of Lebanon Citizens is enhanced by the fact that 87% of total
deposits at March 31, 2000 were core deposits.  Core deposits, for this
purpose, are defined as total deposits less public funds and certificates
of deposit greater than $100,000.

At March 31, 2000, Lebanon Citizens liquid assets amounted to $124 million
or 28% of total gross assets, down from $134 million or 31% at December 31,
1999.  Secondary sources of liquidity include Lebanon Citizens' ability to
sell loan participations and purchase federal funds.  Management closely
monitors the level of liquid assets available to meet ongoing funding needs.
It is management's intent to maintain adequate liquidity so that sufficient
funds are readily available at a reasonable cost.  Loans to deposits were
76% and 73%, at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively.  Lebanon
Citizens experienced no liquidity or operational problems as a result of the
current liquidity levels.


YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
LCNB Corp. experienced no difficulties resulting from Y2K in the date
transition at year-end 1999 nor were any difficulties encountered within
the first quarter of 2000.  Lebanon Citizens' testing and preparation for
Y2K included future dates beyond December 31, 1999.  Management anticipates
no difficulties from future date changes.
