CITIZENS HOLDING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                   For the three months ended March 31, 2000

1.   The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and reflect all
     adjustments and reclassifications which, in the opinion of management, are
     necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and
     financial condition of the interim period.  All adjustments and
     reclassifications are or a normal and recurring nature.  Results for the
     period ending March 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results
     which may be expected for any other interim period or for the year as a
     whole.

2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.  See note 1 of the Notes to
     Consolidated Financial Statements of the Citizens Holding Company that were
     included in the Form 10-K Annual Report filed March 29, 2000. Registration
     with the Securities and Exchange Commission was effective August 20, 1999.

     Investment Securities B The Corporation classifies all of its securities as
     available-for-sale and carries them at fair value with unrealized gains or
     losses reported as a separate component of capital, net of any applicable
     income taxes.  Realized gains or losses on the sale of securities
     available-for-sale, if any, are determined on an identification basis.  The
     Corporation does not have any securities classified as Held for Trading.

3.   In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation enters into commitments
     to extend credit to its customers.  The unused portion of these commitments
     is not reflected in the accompanying financial statements.  As of March 31,
     2000, the Corporation had entered into commitments with certain customers
     that had an unused balance of $21,264,000 compared to $16,241,000 unused at
     December 31, 1999.  There were $334,025 of letters of credit outstanding at
     March 31, 2000, compared to $313,105 at December 31, 1999.

4.   Net income per share B Basic, has been computed based on the
     weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period. Net
     income per share B Diluted, has been computed based on the weighted average
     number of shares outstanding during each period plus the dilutive effect of
     outstanding granted options. Basic weighted average shares have been
     adjusted to reflect the five-for-one stock split on the common stock
     effective January 1, 1999. Earnings per share were computed as follows:

           ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Management's discussion and analysis is written to provide greater insight into
the results of operations and the financial condition of Citizens Holding
Company, (the "Corporation").

Statements concerning future performance, developments or events, concerning
expectations for growth and market forecasts, and any other guidance on future
periods, constitute forward-looking statements which are subject to a number of
risks and uncertainties which might cause actual results to differ materially
from stated expectations.  These factors include, but are not limited to, the
approval of regulatory agencies and shareholders, the effect of interest rates
changes, the expansion of the Corporation, competition in the financial services
market for both deposits and loans, and general economic conditions.


LIQUIDITY

The Corporation has an asset and liability management program that assists
management in maintaining it interest margins during times of both rising and
falling interest rates and in maintaining sufficient liquidity.  Liquidity of
the Corporation at March 31, 2000 was 42.74% and at March 31, 1999 was 40.14%.
Liquidity is the ratio of short-term investments to potentially volatile
liabilities.  Management believes it maintains adequate liquidity for the
Corporation's current needs.

When the Corporation has more funds than it needs for its reserve requirements
or short-term liquidity needs, the Corporation increases its security
investments or sells federal funds.  It is management's policy to maintain an
adequate portion of its portfolio of assets and liabilities on a short-term
basis to insure rate flexibility and to meet loan funding and liquidity needs.
The Corporation has secured and unsecured federal funds lines with correspondent
banks in the amount of $38,500,000.  In addition, the Corporation has the
ability to draw on its line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank in excess
of $47,448,000 at March 31, 2000.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Corporation's equity capital was $38,686,576 at March 31, 2000.  The main
source of capital for the Corporation has been the retention of net income.

On January 1, 1999, the Corporation issued a five-for-one (5:1) split to the
shareholders of the Corporation.  This split increased the number of shares
outstanding to 3,308,750
<PAGE>

from 661,750. The number of shares authorized increased from 750,000 to
3,750,000 after the split. Additionally, the shareholders approved an increase
in authorized shares to 15,000,000 at the annual meeting held April 13, 1999.
Cash dividends in the amount of $330,875 or $.10 per share were paid March 31,
2000. This is the first time that the Company paid a quarterly dividend rather
than paying a semi-annual dividend as had been paid in the prior years.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require the Corporation to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier
1 capital (primarily common stock and retained earnings, less goodwill) to risk
weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets.  Management believes
that as of March 31, 2000, the Corporation meets all capital adequacy
requirements to which it is subject.

Net Income Per Share B Basic is calculated using weighted average number of

Annualized return on average equity was 13.68% for the three months ended
March 31, 2000, and 14.72% for the three months ended March 31, 1999.

The book value per share increased to $11.69 at March 31, 2000 compared to
$11.35 at December 31, 1999.  This increase is due to earnings exceeding
dividends paid during this period.  Average assets for the three months ended
March 31, 2000, were $367,844,283 compared to $347,613,000 at December 31, 1999;
average equity increased to $38,707,475 for the three months ended March 31,
2000, from $37,603,000 at December 31, 1999.

NET INTEREST INCOME/NET INTEREST MARGIN
One component of the Corporation's earnings is net interest income, which is the
difference between the interest and fees earned on loans and investments and the
interest paid for deposits and borrowed funds.  The net interest margin is net
interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets.

The annualized net interest margin was 4.33% for the three months ended
March 31, 2000, compared to an annualized net interest margin of 4.51% for the
three months ended March 31, 1999. Earnings assets averaged $341,034,193 for the
three months ended March 31, 2000. This represented an increase of $31,484,871
or 10.17%, over average earning assets of $309,549,322 for the three months
ended March 31, 1999. This increase was from normal growth of the Corporation
and not from any special program or promotion.

CREDIT LOSS EXPERIENCE

As a natural corollary to the Corporation's lending activities, some loan losses
are to be expected.  The risk of loss varies with the type of loan being made
and the creditworthiness of the borrower over the term of the loan.  The degree
of perceived risk is taken into account in establishing the structure of, and
interest rates and security for, specific loans and for various types of loans.
The Corporation attempts to minimize its credit risk exposure by use of thorough
loan application and approval procedures.

The Corporation maintains a program of systematic review of its existing loans.
Loans are graded for their overall quality.  Those loans which the Corporation's
management determines require further monitoring and supervision are segregated
and reviewed on a periodic basis.  Significant problem loans are reviewed on a
monthly basis by the Corporation's Board of Directors.

The Corporation charges off that portion of any loan which management considers
to represent a loss.  A loan is generally considered by management to represent
a loss in whole or in part when an exposure beyond the collateral value is
apparent, servicing of the unsecured portion has been discontinued or collection
is not anticipated based on the borrower's financial condition and general
economic conditions in the borrower's industry. The principal amount of any loan
which is declared a loss is charged against the Corporation's allowance for loan
losses.

The Corporation's allowance for loan losses is designed to provide for loan
losses which can be reasonably anticipated.  The allowance for loan losses is
established through charges to operating expenses in the form of provisions for
loan losses.  Actual loan losses or recoveries are charges or credited to the
allowance for loan losses.  The amount of the allowance is determined by
management of the Corporation.  Among the factors considered in determining the
allowance for loan losses are the current financial condition of the
Corporation's borrowers and the value of security, if any, for their loans.
Estimates of future economic conditions and their impact on various industries
and individual borrowers are also taken into consideration, as are the
Corporation's historical loan loss experience and reports of banking regulatory
authorities.  Because these estimates, factors
<PAGE>

and evaluations are primarily judgmental, no assurance can be given as to
whether or not the Corporation will sustain loan losses or that subsequent
evaluation of the loan portfolio may not require substantial changes in such
allowance.

The following table summarizes the Corporation's allowance for loan loss for the
dates indicated:

The provision for loan losses was $84,862 for the three months ended March 31,
2000.  This is a decrease of $60,772 or 41.7%, over the $145,634 for the three
months ended March 31, 1999.   In addition to the quarterly addition to the
allowance, the Corporation adds an amount to the allowance in the amount of the
net charge offs each month.  Gross loans outstanding increased 11.5% for the
three months in 2000.  For the three months ended March 31, 2000, losses charged
to the allowance for loan losses totaled $134,588.  This was offset by
recoveries of $124,726, with the net effect being $9,862 in loans charged to the
allowance.

Management of the Corporation reviews with the Board of Directors the adequacy
of the allowance for possible loan losses on a quarterly basis.  The loan loss
provision is adjusted when specific items reflect a need for such an adjustment.
Management believes that there were no material loan losses during the last
fiscal year that have not been charged off.  Management also believes that the
Corporation has adequately reserved for all credits in its portfolio that may
result in a loss to the Corporation.

OTHER OPERATING INCOME
Other operating income includes service charges on deposit accounts, wire
transfer fees, safe deposit box rentals and other revenue not derived from
interest on earning assets.  Other operating income for the three months ended
March 31, 2000, increased $9,896 or
<PAGE>

1.2% over the three months ended March 31, 1999. Especially in periods of
declining net interest margins, the Corporation has sought to increase the
income derived from these sources and will continue to seek opportunities to do
so.

OTHER OPERATING EXPENSE

Other expenses include salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment,
and other operating expenses.  The continued growth of the Corporation has put
pressure on Management to control overhead expenses.  The growth of the
Corporation, annual raises, and the addition of the mortgage department has
resulted in an increase in salaries and benefits of $75,729 or 6.5%.  Other
operating expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2000 were $2,226,345
compared to the $2,005,914 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 for an
increase of $220,431 or 11.0%.  The Corporation's efficiency ratio
at March 31, 2000 was 47.94%.

</TABLE>

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents are made up of cash, balances at correspondent banks
and federal funds sold.  The increase at March 31, 2000 was due to the temporary
increase in correspondent bank accounts caused by an unusually large cash letter
sent out on this date. The Corporation did not have any federal funds sold at
this date due to continued strong loan demand.
<PAGE>

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The investment securities are made up of U. S. Treasury Notes, U. S. Agency
debentures, mortgage-backed securities, obligations of states, counties and
municipal governments and Federal Home Loan Bank Stock.

Investments decreased $781,165 or 0.8% as a result of the need for liquidity to
fund the strong loan demand.

LOANS
Loan demand continued to be strong in the service area of the Corporation as
evidenced by the 2.61% increase in net loans.  Residential housing loans
continue to be in demand along with commercial and industrial loans.  No special
loan programs were initiated during this period to add to this growth.

</TABLE>

The increase in deposits reflected in the above table is solely the result of
normal deposit growth for our service area.  The Corporation does not have any
brokered deposits.  There were no special deposit programs or incentives in
place during this period.

YEAR 2000

The Corporation has not encountered any problems with the Y2K date change.
Although we are pleased with our transition through this period, we are on guard
for any problems that might yet surface.  We will continue to look for potential
Y2K problems until we are satisfied that no such problems exist.
