CITY NATIONAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. The results of operations reflect the interim adjustments, all of which
are of a normal recurring nature and which, in the opinion of
management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for
such interim periods. These unaudited consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial
statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1997.
2. In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"). This Statement
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments and for hedging activities. This Statement is effective for
fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. Management of the Company
uses interest rate swaps to manage interest rate exposure, which are
accounted for as hedging activities. Therefore, management is in the
process of determining the impact that this statement will have on the
Company.
In February 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures
about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits" ("SFAS 132"). This
Statement standardizes the disclosure requirements for defined benefit
plans and recommends a parallel format for presenting information about
pensions and other postretirement benefits. This Statement is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. Since the Company
has no defined benefit plans, it has determined that this Statement will
have no significant impact.
In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS 131"). SFAS 131
establishes standards for the way that public enterprises report
information about operating segments in annual financial statements and
requires that selected information about those operating segments be
reported in interim financial statements. This statement supersedes
SFAS 14 "Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business Enterprise".
SFAS No. 131 requires that all public enterprises report financial and
descriptive information about its reportable operating segments.
Operating segments are defined as components regularly evaluated by the
chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and
in assessing performance. This statement is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1997. In the initial year of application,
comparative information for earlier years should be restated. Management
is in the process of determining the impact, if any, this statement will
have on the Company.
3. Securities held-for-investment are classified as investment securities.
Because the Company has the ability and management has the intent to
hold investment securities until maturity, investment securities are
stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of
discounts. Trading account securities are stated at market value.
Investments not classified as trading securities nor as investment
securities are classified as securities available-for-sale and recorded
at fair value. Unrealized holding gains or losses for securities
available-for-sale are excluded from net income and are reported as
comprehensive income included as a separate component of shareholders'
equity net of taxes.
4. On January 9, 1998, the Company completed its acquisition of Harbor
Bancorp (HB), a one-bank holding company with six branches, one of which
was subsequently closed. The total purchase price was approximately
$34.5 million. The Company issued approximately 540,000 shares,
primarily from treasury, with an aggregate market value of $17.9 million
and paid the remainder in cash. This acquisition was accounted for
under the purchase method of accounting and resulted in the recording
of goodwill and intangibles of approximately $24.0 million. The results
of HB's operations are included in those reported by the Company
beginning on January 10, 1998.
On February 27, 1998, the Company sold its Wilmington branch, which had
been acquired as part of the acquisition of Ventura County National
Bancorp to Banco Popular, N.A. (California). With the sale the
purchaser received approximately $40 million of deposits.
On May 15, 1998, the Company closed its Magnolia branch, which was
acquired in the Company's acquisition of Riverside National Bank.
6
<PAGE>
5. On January 12, 1998, the Company issued $125 million of 6 3/8%
Subordinated Notes due 2008. The net proceeds from the sale are being used
for general corporate purposes in the ordinary course of its banking
business.
6. For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include
cash on hand, amounts due from banks, and overnight federal funds sold.
7. Certain prior periods' data have been reclassified to conform to current
period presentation.
8. On April 29, 1998, the Company reported it had completed its share
repurchase program announced in March 1997 of 1.5 million shares of its
common stock at a total cost of $42.7 million, or an average price of
$28.46 per share. A new share repurchase program of up to 1.0 million
shares of the Company's common stock from time to time in open market
transactions was also announced at the same time. As of July 31, 1998,
the Company had repurchased 476,500 shares under this program at a total
cost of $17.3 million, or an average price of $36.23 per share.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
City National Corporation (the Corporation) is the holding Company for City
National Bank (the Bank). Because the Bank comprises substantially all of the
business of the Corporation, references to the "Company" in this Item 2 reflect
the consolidated activities of the Corporation and the Bank.
See "Cautionary Statement for Purposes of the 'Safe Harbor' Provision of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995", below in connection with
"forward looking" statements included in the Overview section of Results of
Operations and in the Loan Portfolio section of the Balance Sheet Analysis.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
The Company recorded consolidated net income of $23.6 million, or $.49 per
diluted common share, in the second quarter of 1998, compared to $19.6 million,
or $.41 per diluted common share, in the second quarter of 1997. Increased net
income was primarily due to $9.5 million higher net interest income, and $3.9
million higher noninterest income, partially offset by $7.7 million in higher
noninterest expense.
Net income for the first six months of 1998 totaled $46.1 million, or $.95 per
diluted common share compared with $37.6 million, or $.79 per diluted common
share in the 1997 period. The six month increase resulted largely from a $22.5
million increase in net interest income and a $7.7 million increase in
noninterest income, partially offset by a $18.1 million increase in noninterest
expense.
Returns on average assets for the second quarter and first half of 1998 were
1.73% and 1.72% respectively compared with 1.67% and 1.66% for the
corresponding periods of 1997. Returns on average equity for the second
quarter and first half of 1998 increased to 17.66% and 17.33% respectively from
16.87% and 16.56% in 1997.
Earnings before the amortization of goodwill and core deposits intangibles (net
of applicable taxes) ("cash" earnings) for the quarter and six months ended
June 30, 1998 were $25.0 million or $.52 per diluted common share and $49.0
million or $1.01 per diluted common share, respectively compared to $20.8
million of $.43 per diluted common share and $39.7 million or $.83 per diluted
common share in the corresponding periods of 1997. On the same basis, the
returns on average assets were 1.85% and 1.84% for the quarter and six months
ended June 30, 1998, respectively compared to 1.80% and 1.77% in the 1997
periods. Cash returns on average common equity were 20.94% and 20.47% for the
quarter and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively compared to 19.89% and
19.10% for the year ago periods. "Cash" earnings are presented because they
measure the Company's ability to support growth, pay dividends and repurchase
stock. The Company's "cash" earnings per share and other ratios are not
necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other
companies.
Taxable equivalent net interest income was $74.8 million in the second quarter
of 1998, up 14.7% from the year ago quarter. The increase resulted from the
18.5% increase in average interest earning assets between quarters. The net
interest spread and the net interest margin decreased to 4.33% and 5.95%,
respectively for the second quarter from 4.72% and 6.15%, for comparable period
a year ago. Management expects modest growth in quarterly net interest income
for the remainder of 1998 from second quarter 1998 levels, assuming, among
other things, that interest rates will essentially remain constant but that
loan balances will continue to grow. Actual results may vary if the
assumptions prove to be incorrect.
Average loans increased $765.9 million (22.9%) between second quarters to
$4,111.4 million at June 30, 1998. This increase reflected higher average
commercial, real estate commercial mortgage and residential first mortgage
loans outstanding, up $524.1 million (33.0%), $110.5 million (17.2%) and $105.2
million (11.1%), respectively. The increase in commercial loans resulted from
the Bank's internal loan generation, the acquisition of HB in January 1998 and
purchases of corporate syndicated loans. The increase in real estate mortgage
loans was primarily from the acquisition of HB. The increase in residential
first mortgage loans resulted from the Bank's internal loan generation.
Average construction loans increased $20.0 million (15.9%) from the second
quarter of 1997.

<PAGE>
Total average investment and available-for-sale securities decreased by $33.7
million between second quarters due to strong loan demand, which has absorbed
any excess liquidity. Total average deposits increased $623.4 million (17.4%)
between second quarters due primarily to the acquisition of HB as well as
increased deposit levels generated by the Bank's specialty deposit department
and existing branches.
For the first half of 1998, average loans increased $826.9 million (25.6%) and
total average investment and available-for-sale securities decreased $28.7
million (3.4%). Total deposits for the six months ended June 30, 1998
increased $650.7 million (18.7%) compared to the 1997 period. The change in
the six month average balance resulted from the same factors that caused the
change between the second quarter average balances.
The provision for credit losses was zero for the quarters and six months ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997. Loans charged off in the second quarter of 1998 were
$4.1 million, compared to $7.9 million in the second quarter of 1997.
Recoveries were $2.9 million and $3.2 million in the quarters ended June 30,
1998 and 1997, respectively. The allowance for credit losses was 3.21% of
total loans at June 30, 1998 compared to 3.86% at June 30, 1997 and 3.60% at
December 31, 1997. The provision for credit losses is expected to remain at
reduced levels for the remainder of 1998. This assumes that general economic
conditions in Southern California will not deteriorate materially during the
balance of 1998, and if this assumption proves to be inaccurate, an increased
provision for credit losses may be required.
Noninterest income excluding gains and losses on the sale of securities and
assets totaled $15.5 million for the second quarter of 1998, up $1.8 million
(13.1%) from a year earlier. For the six months ended June 30, 1998,
noninterest income excluding gains and losses on sale of securities and assets
totaled $30.8 million, an increase of $5.3 million (20.8%) from last year's
total of $25.5 million. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $0.9
million (25.7%) and $2.6 million (38.9%), respectively, for the quarter and six
months ended June 30, 1998 due primarily to increases in service charge fee
schedules effective during the fourth quarter of 1997 and the acquisition of
HB. Investment services increased $0.6 million (20.5%) and $1.3 million
(20.7%) compared to the same periods a year ago due to new customers and new
investment products offered to customers. During the first quarter of 1998,
the company invested in bank owned life insurance that generated $0.6 million
and $1.0 million in noninterest income in the second quarter and first half of
1998, respectively. Included in all other income in the second quarter of 1997
was a $0.9 million settlement of a lawsuit with a borrower. Noninterest income
is expected to continue to grow during the remainder of 1998.
Noninterest expense totaled $53.0 million in the second quarter of 1998, an
increase of $7.7 million (16.9%) from the second quarter of 1997. For the
first half of 1998 noninterest expense totaled $107.3 million, an increase of
$18.1 million (20.3%) from the first half of 1997. Salaries and other employee
benefits increased $3.2 million (13.1%) and $9.5 million (19.7%) for the
quarter and six months ended June 30, 1998 from the comparable period in 1997,
due primarily to the additional personnel added as a result of the acquisition
of HB, the hiring of additional personnel to pursue other opportunities, and
moving to a more performance based compensation structure. The expense
categories other than staff increased $4.4 million (21.4 %) and $8.6 million
(21.0%) for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1998 from the comparable
period in 1997. The increase in professional expenses resulted primarily from
higher customer service expense due to increased volumes and higher consulting
fees. Higher promotion expense resulted from the Company's increased
advertising program. Amortization of goodwill and core deposit intangibles for
the second quarter was $1.8 million, unchanged from a year ago, and increased
to $3.7 million for the first six months of 1998 from $3.2 million in the same
period of 1997, reflecting primarily the acquisition of HB. Lower data
processing expense is attributable to savings from the conversion of core
operating systems to a new data processing provider. Other increases are
attributable primarily to the acquisition of HB. Noninterest expense levels
for the remainder of 1998 are expected to be higher than in 1997 reflecting the
growth of the Company and the acquisition of HB.
During the second quarter, efforts continued to address Year 2000 matters in
accordance with the Company's five-phase project plan which covers information
technology as well as embedded systems. As previous reported, the first two
phases of awareness and assessment have been completed. The Company is now
well into the renovation and testing phases. Much of the renovation phase has
been devoted to monitoring the Year 2000 progress of third party vendors and
service providers. There are 32 in-house applications that the Company is
currently responsible for reprogramming, 50% of which have been renovated. As
part of the validation phase, the Company has completed development of its test
lab and has already certified as Year 2000 compliant 40 of its hardware, server
and desktop applications. In the second quarter, approximately $0.5 million
was spent on Year 2000 matters, bringing the six months total expenditures to
approximately $0.7 million. In accordance with the Federal Financial
Institution Examination Council's latest advisories, the Company expects to
complete validation of both internal and external systems by June 30, 1999.
The Company is nearing completion of its contingency planning for each of its
mission critical business functions. It will establish trigger dates by which
each vendor must become Year 2000 compliant or the contingency plan will be
implemented.
The Company's effective tax rate decreased to 35.5% in the second quarter of
1998 from 36.7% in the second quarter of 1997. The Company expects the
effective tax rate for the remainder of 1998 to remain near or slightly above
1998 second quarter levels.

Gross loans at June 30, 1998 amounted to $4,228.2 million, up $781.8
million (22.7%) from June 30, 1997 and up $403.0 million (10.5%) from
December 31, 1997. Approximately $152.2 million of the increase was due to
the acquisition of HB. Also contributing to the $526.4 million increase in
commercial loans from June 30, 1997 were loan originations and the purchase
of syndicated corporate loans. The $88.2 million increase in residential
first mortgage loans from the year ago quarter resulted from the Bank's own
originations. Construction loans also increased by $78.1 million from June
30, 1997 as the Company continued to expand its lending for residential
construction development. The Company expects that the Bank's loan portfolio
will continue to increase from second quarter 1998 levels due primarily to
its own internal loan generation activities.

(1) Reflects new standard adopted by the Federal Reserve effective in June of
1998.
On March 17, 1997, the Company announced a program for the repurchase of up
to 1.5 million shares of its common stock, which was completed on April 28,
1998. The Company repurchased these shares at a total cost of $42.7 million
or an average price of $28.46 per share. A new repurchase program of up to
1.0 million shares was announced on April 29, 1998. As of July 31, 1998, the
Company had repurchased 476,500 shares under this program at a total cost of
$17.3 million, or an average price of $36.23 per share. Shares purchased
under the buyback program will be reissued upon the exercise of stock options
and for other general corporate purposes.
On July 29, 1998, the Company declared a regular quarterly dividend of $.14
per share, payable August 13, 1998 to shareholders of record as of August 4,
1998.
ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
The principal objectives of asset/liability management are to maximize net
interest margin subject to margin volatility and liquidity constraints.
Margin volatility results when the rate reset (or repricing) characteristics
of assets are materially different from those of the Company's liabilities.
Liquidity risk results from the mismatching of asset and liability cash
flows. Management chooses asset/liability strategies that promote stable
earnings and reliable funding. Interest rate risk and funding positions are
kept within limits established by the Company's board of directors to ensure
that risk-taking is not excessive and that liquidity is properly managed.
The Company has established three measurement process to quantify and manage
exposure to interest rate risk: net interest income simulation modeling, gap
analysis, and present value of equity analysis. Net interest income
simulations are used to identify the direction and severity of interest rate
risk exposure across a twelve month forecast horizon. Gap analysis provides
insight into structural mismatches of assets and liability repricing
characteristics. Present value of equity calculations are used to estimate
the theoretical price sensitivity of shareholder equity to changes in
interest rates.
Generally, an asset sensitive gap indicates that net interest income will
improve during a period of rising interest rates. The gap report is based on
the contractual cash flows of all asset and liability balances on the
Company's books. The contractual life of those balances may differ
substantially from their expected lives however. For example, checking
accounts are all subject to immediate withdrawal. Experience suggests that
these accounts will have an average life of several years. Also, certain
loans (such as first mortgages) are subject to prepayment. The
17
<PAGE>
cash flows shown in the gap report are adjusted to reflect these behaviors.
The gap report also shows the effects that interest rate swaps have had on
the repricing profile of the Company.
The use of interest rate swaps to manage interest rate exposure involves the
risk of dealing with counterparties and their ability to meet contractual
terms. These counterparties must receive appropriate credit approval before
the Company enters into an interest rate contract. Notional principal
amounts express the volume of these transactions, although the amounts
potentially subject to credit and market risks are much smaller. At June 30,
1998, almost all of the Company's interest rate swaps were entered into as
hedges against a decrease in interest income generated from prime based loans
if the prime decreased. The Company has not entered into transactions
involving any other interest rate derivative financial instruments, such as
interest rate floors, caps and interest rate futures contracts.
At June 30, 1998, the under-one-year cumulative gap was a $260.0 million
(5.0% of total assets) net asset position compared with a net asset position
of $132 million (3% of total assets) at December 31, 1997. The increase
resulted from the Company's funding of asset growth with equity, subordinate
debt and seasonal rate stable deposits. As of June 30, 1998, the Company has
$610.0 million of notional principal in receive fixed-pay LIBOR interest rate
swaps, of which $430.0 million have maturities greater than one year. The
Company's interest-rate risk-management instruments had a fair value of $2.2
million and $1.7 million and an exposure to credit risk of $2.2 million and
$1.8 million at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively. The
credit exposure represents the cost to replace, on a present value basis and
at current market rates, all profitable contracts outstanding at the end of
the period. The Company's swap agreements require the deposit of collateral
to mitigate the amount of credit risk if certain thresholds are exceeded. No
amounts were required to be deposited by the Company or its counterparties as
of June 30, 1998.
Since interest rate changes do not affect all categories of assets and
liabilities equally or simultaneously, a cumulative gap analysis alone cannot
be used to evaluate the Company's interest rate sensitivity position. To
supplement traditional gap analysis, the Company uses simulation modeling to
estimate the potential effects of changing interest rates. This process
allows the Company to fully explore the complex relationships within the gap
over time and various interest rate scenarios.
At June 30, 1998, the Company's outstanding foreign exchange contracts
totaled $16.5 million. The Company enters into foreign exchange contracts
with its customers and counterparty banks solely for the purpose of
offsetting or hedging transaction and economic exposures arising out of
commercial transactions. The Company's policies prohibit outright
speculation by the Company and its employees. The Company actively manages
its foreign exchange exposures within prescribed risk limits and controls.
All foreign exchange contracts outstanding at June 30, 1998 had remaining
maturities of six months or less with the exception of $0.9 million which had
remaining maturities ranging between six months and 24 months.
LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT
The Company continues to manage its liquidity through the combination of core
deposits, federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements, collateralized
borrowing lines at the Federal Reserve Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank of
San Francisco, and a portfolio of securities availabie-for-sale. Liquidity
is also provided by maturing investment securities and loans.
Average core deposits and shareholders' equity comprised 72.9% of total funding
in the second quarter of 1998, compared to 75.7% in the second quarter of 1997.
This decrease has required that the Company increase its use of more costly
alternative funding sources. Despite the decrease in percentage of funding
derived from core deposits and shareholders' equity, the Company has not faced
any liquidity constraints.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF
THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
The Company wishes to take advantage of the "safe harbor" provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 as to "forward looking"
statements in this Quarterly Report which are not historical facts. The
Company cautions readers that the following important factors could affect
the Company's business and cause actual results to differ materially from
those expressed in any forward looking statement made by, or on behalf of,
the Company.
- --Economic conditions. The Company's results are strongly influenced by
general economic conditions in its market area, Southern California, and a
deterioration in these conditions could have a material adverse impact on the
quality of the Bank's loan portfolio and the demand for its products and
services. In particular, changes in economic conditions in the real estate
and entertainment industries may affect the Company's performance.
- --Interest rates. Management anticipates that interest rate levels will
remain generally constant, but there is some risk of Federal Reserve
tightening. If interest rates vary substantially from present levels, this
may cause the Company's results to differ materially.
- --Government regulation and monetary policy. All forward looking statements
presume a continuation of the existing regulatory environment and U.S.
Government policies. The banking industry is subject to extensive federal
and state regulations, and significant new laws or changes in, or repeal of,
existing laws may cause results to differ materially. Further, federal
monetary policy, particularly as implemented through the Federal Reserve
System, significantly affects credit conditions for the Bank, primarily
through open market operations in U.S. Government securities, the discount
rate for member bank borrowing and bank reserve requirements, and a material
change in these conditions would be likely to have an impact on results.
- --Competition. The Bank competes with numerous other domestic and foreign
financial institutions and non-depository financial intermediaries. Results
may differ if circumstances affecting the nature or level of competitive
change, such as the merger of competing financial institutions or the
acquisition of California institutions by out-of-state companies.
- --Credit quality. A significant source of risk arises from the possibility
that losses will be sustained because borrowers, guarantors and related
parties may fail to perform in accordance with the terms of their loans. The
Bank has adopted underwriting and credit monitoring procedures and credit
policies, including the establishment and review of the allowance for credit
losses, that management believes are appropriate to minimize this risk by
assessing the likelihood of nonperformance, tracking loan performance and
diversifying the Bank's credit portfolio, but such policies and procedures
may not prevent unexpected losses that could adversely affect the Company's
results.
- --Other risks. From time to time, the Company details other risks to its
businesses and/or its financial results in its filings with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.
While management believes that its assumptions regarding these and other
factors on which forward looking statements are based are reasonable, such
assumptions are necessarily speculative in nature, and actual outcomes can be
expected to differ to some degree. Consequently, there can be no assurance
that the results described in such forward looking statements will, in fact,
be achieved.
