REPUBLIC CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2000
Note 1 -- BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared
by The Republic Corporation, without audit, pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and include all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the company and its subsidiaries. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Republic Corporation believes that
the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading;
however, it is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction
with the financial statements and the notes thereto which are on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999. The financial data for the interim
periods may not necessarily be indicative of results to be expected for the
year.
Securities that will be held for indefinite periods of time, including
securities that will be used as part of the Company's asset/liability management
strategy and that may be sold in response to changes in interest rates,
prepayments, and similar factors, are classified as Available-for-Sale and
accounted for at fair value.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FINANCIAL CONDITION
ASSET QUALITY
The total of loans placed on non-accrual remains at an elevated level,
largely due to the involved customers falling 30 days past due at some point.
These accounts remain on non-accrual status, even though most are now current,
for a number of months so that management can observe the customer's financial
condition and payment performance. Once the financial picture has improved and
payments have been current for at least a quarter, the bank typically places
these accounts back on accrual status. In those instances where the account
remains over 30 days past due, the bank normally places the account in
collection.
The restructured loan total continues to represent one commercial loan
which has received a lower interest rate due to financial difficulties.

SOURCES AND USES OF FUNDS
The predominant cash flow profile for the first half of 2000 was the
almost dollar-for-dollar placement of deposit growth into new loans. During the
period, deposit growth of $11,146 m occurred in conjunction with $11,291m in
loan growth. This contrasts with $13,595m in deposit growth for the same period
last year, coupled with a much smaller $1,239m, prior year period loan growth.
The current period also saw an approximate $4,402 reduction in cash and cash
equivalents and a $4,400 increase in investment securities. (Please see
Statement of Cash Flows, P-3)
LIQUIDITY
Period-end holdings of cash and due from banks, readily marketable
securities and federal funds sold came to approximately 35.5%, down from the 38%
which existed at year-end, 1999. The primary reason for the decline was the
brisk rate of loan growth during the first half. (Please see Balance Sheet, P-1)
INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY MANAGEMENT
The bank has extended some maturities in the investment portfolio based
upon the possibility that the Federal Reserve is near the end of its monetary
tightening. The predominant configuration, however, remains a defensive one,
should interest continue to rise. (Please see Repricing Schedule, P-7)

</TABLE>
(1) Securities which the Bank has the ability and intent to hold to maturity.
These securities are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and
accretion of discounts, computed by the interest method. Because securities are
purchased for investment purposes and quoted market values fluctuate during the
investment period, gains and losses are recognized upon disposition or at such
time as management determines that a permanent impairment of value has occurred.
Cost of securities sold is determined on the specific identification method.
(2) Securities that the bank may sell in response to changes in market
conditions or in the balance sheet objectives of the bank. Securities in this
category will be reported at fair market value. Unrealized gains or losses (net
of tax) will be reported as a separate item in the shareholder's equity section
of the balance sheet. Adjustments will be recorded at least quarterly.

<PAGE>
CAPITALIZATION:
The rate of asset growth continues to exceed retained earnings growth,
causing a further decline in all capital ratios. Some of the reduction in the
risk-based ratios is also tied to growth in loan categories that carry higher
risk ratings than cash equivalent assets. (Please see table 5, P-9)

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income, when annualized and expressed as a percentage of
period-end, interest bearing assets, rose to 3.73% for the second quarter of
2000, compared to 3.40% for the first quarter. This trend, a by-product of loan
growth and adjustments made to both sides of the balance sheet, will provide a
significant contribution to improved earnings for the year 2000. (Please see
Balance Sheet, P-1 and Statement of Income, P-2)
OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSE
The provision for loan losses is approximately double that of the prior
year, primarily a result of the need to restore the loan loss reserve following
a $111m charge-off in the first quarter and as a result of brisk loan growth
which increases loss exposure.
Non-interest income grew significantly over prior year levels, due
primarily to rate driven, and to a lesser degree, volume driven increases in
loan fee revenue.
Net occupancy expense is higher this year due to an expenditure to date
of approximately $67m for stone repair on the bank's main building and
advertising expense is higher by approximately $25m due to costs associated with
the bank's 125th anniversary booklet and celebration. Also, Internet banking
start-up costs of approximately $43m caused a higher than normal expenditure on
computer services. The remaining increases are tied to growth factors. (Please
