FIRST SECURITY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed 
consolidated financial statements of First Security Corporation ("FSC") 
contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) 
necessary to present fairly: FSC's results of operations for the three 
months and the year-to-date six months in the periods ended June 30, 
1994 and 1993; FSC's financial position as of June 30, 1994, December 
31, 1993, and June 30, 1993; and cash flows for the year-to-date six 
months in the periods ended June 30, 1994 and 1993.

2.  The results of operations for the three months and the year-to-date 
six month periods ended June 30, 1994 and 1993 are not necessarily 
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

3.  As required by applicable accounting rules, all historical amounts 
in this report have been restated to reflect the effects of the November 
19, 1993 pooling-of-interests merger with First National Financial 
Corporation ("FNFC"; located in Albuquerque, New Mexico).
     Financial statements and commentary incorporate fair market 
valuations for balances added, as well as earnings since their 
acquisition, from 11 financial institutions acquired in 1993, and three 
financial institutions acquired in the year-to-date six months of 1994.  
Under applicable accounting rules, those acquisitions acquired as 
pooling-of-interests mergers, except FNFC, were not material to FSC's 
consolidated operations, so historical amounts were not restated.
      On February 18, 1994, First Security Bank of Wyoming acquired the 
Evanston and Bridger Valley, Wyoming branches of Equality State Bank 
(headquartered in Cheyenne, Wyoming) with approximately $31 million in 
assets and $31 million in deposits in those two branches.  This 
acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
      On April 29, 1994, First Security Bank of Utah, N.A. (FSB Utah) 
acquired CrossLand Mortgage Acquisition Corporation (CrossLand), the 
parent company of CrossLand Mortgage Corp. (not affiliated with 
CrossLand Savings Bank), a 1-to-4 family residential mortgage loan 
originator and servicer which has 60 offices in 18 states across the 
country.  This acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method 
of accounting.
      On May 20, 1994, FSB Utah acquired Community First Bank 
(headquartered in Clearfield, Utah) with five branches, $74 million in 
assets, and $62 million in deposits.  This acquisition was accounted for 
using the pooling-of-interests method of accounting.
      On July 15, 1994, First Security Bank of Idaho, N.A. acquired 
American Ban Corporation (headquartered in Boise, Idaho) with four 
branches, $64 million in assets, and $51 million in deposits.  This 
acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.

4.  For the periods ended June 30, 1994 and 1993, per share amounts 
assuming full dilution were not separately disclosed because they did 
not differ significantly from primary earnings per share.

5.  For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents 
included cash and due from banks, as well as Federal funds sold and 
securities purchased under resale agreements.

6.  Information as to preferred and common shares (in thousands):
                                       June 30  December 31      June 30
                                          1994         1993         1993
      Preferred Stock Outstanding           13           13           14
      Common Stock Issued               49,859       48,787       46,972
      Common Treasury Stock                682          350          355

7.  On January 1, 1994, FSC adopted Statement of Financial Accounting 
Standards No. 112 (SFAS 112), "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment 
Benefits".  SFAS 112 requires the Corporation to accrue benefits to be 
provided to former or inactive employees after employment but before 
retirement, such as salary continuation , severance pay, or health care 
benefits.  The impact of SFAS 112 on FSC has not been, and is not 
expected to be, material in relation to the consolidated financial 
statements.

8.  On January 1, 1994, FSC adopted Statement of Financial Accounting 
Standards No. 115 (SFAS 115), "Accounting for Certain Investments in 
Debt and Equity Securities".  SFAS 115 requires the Corporation to 
classify its investment portfolio securities as either held to maturity, 
available for sale, or trading.  Held to maturity securities are 
accounted for at amortized cost; available for sale securities are 
accounted for at fair value with the tax-effected unrealized gain/loss 
reported as a net amount in a separate component of stockholders' 
equity; and trading securities are accounted for at fair value with 
unrealized gains/losses included in earnings.
      The adoption of SFAS 115 on January 1, 1994 resulted in the 
reclassification of $1.42 billion of investment securities as available 
for sale to reflect FSC's investment-holding strategy under the new 
statement, and an increase in the carrying value of such investments of 
approximately $13.98 million, with corresponding increases in 
stockholders' equity of approximately $8.89 million and deferred income 
tax liabilities of $5.10 million.
      At June 30, 1994, investment securities available for sale had a 
fair value of $2.13 billion and an amortized cost basis of $2.17 
billion, which included gross unrealized holding gains of $9.68 million 
and gross unrealized holding losses of $51.84 million that were 
recognized on a tax-effected basis as a $26.55 million net unrealized 
loss on securities available for sale in stockholders' equity.
      Implementation of SFAS 115 will result in additions to or 
deductions from FSC's total stockholders' equity as the result of 
fluctuations in fair value of investment securities available for sale.
      At June 30, 1994, investment securities held to maturity had a 
fair value of $269.40 million and an amortized cost basis of $268.11 
million, which included gross unrealized holding gains of $4.50 million 
and gross unrealized holding losses of $3.21 million or a $1.29 million 
net unrealized gain on investment securities held to maturity.

PART 1. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations 
and Financial Condition

ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
   First Security Corporation ("FSC") earned record net income of $35.22 
million for the second quarter of 1994, an increase of $5.53 million 
(18.6%) over the $29.69 million earned in the second quarter of 1993 
(see Financial Statements: Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income).  
This was the highest quarterly net income ever earned by FSC, and was 
the fourth time in the past six quarters that FSC achieved record 
earnings.  The increase in net income for the second quarter of 1994 was 
due primarily to the 19.0% growth in average earning assets, combined 
with a lower overall average funding cost and higher noninterest income.
   Net income for the second quarter of 1994 generated a 1.29% return on 
average assets ("ROAA") and a 16.49% return on average equity ("ROAE"), 
compared with a 1.30% ROAA and a 15.49% ROAE for the year-ago quarter.  
The quarter's net income per share was $0.71, up $0.09 (14.5%) from 
$0.62 one year ago.
   For the 1994 year-to-date period, net income totaled $68.38 million, 
up $7.98 million (13.2%) over the corresponding period in 1993.  This 
generated a 1.31% ROAA and a 16.12% ROAE for year-to-date 1994, compared 
with a 1.36% ROAA and a 16.15% ROAE for the same period in 1993.  Year-
to-date net income per share was $1.38 for 1994, up $0.11 (8.7%) from 
$1.27 for the year-ago period.
   FSC's financial statements have been restated to reflect the November 
19, 1993 pooling-of-interests merger with First National Financial 
Corporation ("FNFC") and its wholly-owned subsidiary First National Bank 
in Albuquerque (renamed First Security Bank of New Mexico), 
headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico with $1.13 billion in deposits 
and 26 branches.
   Net interest income on a fully-taxable equivalent ("FTE") basis rose 
to $118.31 million for the second quarter of 1994, up $17.21 million 
(17.0%) from the year-ago quarter, and totaled $230.54 million for year-
to-date 1994, up $30.01 million (15.0%) from the year-ago period (see 
Supplemental Table: Rate / Volume Analysis).  These increases were due 
to the growth in average earning assets, particularly in residential 
mortgage loans and consumer loans, reflecting FSC's position as the 
leading consumer lender in Utah and Idaho.  The FTE net interest margin 
was 4.79% for the second quarter of 1994, down from 4.87% for the year-
ago quarter and 4.92% for the first quarter of 1994.  This lower 
quarterly net interest margin was largely the result of FSC's reliance 
upon borrowed funds to support earning asset growth which exceeded 
deposit growth.  The FTE net interest margin was 4.85% for year-to-date 
1994, down from 4.95% for the year-ago period and 4.95% for all of 1993.  
This lower year-to-date net interest margin reflected decreased yields 
from fixed rate mortgage and instalment loans resulting from the runoff 
of older, higher yielding balances.  Those pressures were partially 
offset by lower average funding costs and higher yields generated from 
market-rate sensitive assets.
   The provision for loan losses was $343 thousand for the second 
quarter of 1994, up $421 thousand from a net recovery for the year-ago 
quarter, and totaled $171 thousand for year-to-date 1994, down $1.73 
million (91.0%) from the year-ago period (see Section: Asset Quality - 
Reserve For Loan Losses; see also Supplemental Table: Financial 
Highlights - Reconciliation of the Reserve For Loan Losses).  Net loans 
charged off included in this provision were $2.49 million for the 
quarter, up $278 thousand (12.6%) from the year-ago quarter, and totaled 
$3.16 million for year-to-date 1994, down $1.55 million (32.9%) from the 
year-ago period.  Reflecting excellent asset quality, the ratio of net 
loans charged off to average loans was a low 0.14% for the quarter, down 
from 0.15% for the year-ago quarter, and was 0.09% for year-to-date 
1994, down from 0.17% for the year-ago period.
   Noninterest income rose to $49.96 million for the second quarter of 
1994, up $13.22 million (36.0%) from the year-ago quarter, and totaled 
$92.61 million for year-to-date 1994, up $15.00 million (19.3%) from the 
year-ago period.  These increases came largely from acquisitions and 
volume-related growth in service charges on accounts, real estate loan 
servicing fees, bankcard and third-party processing fees, and trust 
activities.
   Noninterest expenses, including all acquisitions, were $110.52 
million for the second quarter of 1994, up $20.44 million (22.7%) from 
the year-ago quarter, and totaled $211.89 million for year-to-date 1994, 
up $36.58 million (20.9%) from the year-ago period.  These increases 
were impacted by both acquisitions and volume-related growth.
   In the 12 months since June 30, 1993, FSC completed 10 acquisitions 
(in addition to FNFC) that did not require restatement of FSC's 
financial statements, thereby creating significant period-to-period 
increases in noninterest expenses.  These acquisitions added 17 domestic 
bank offices and 60 domestic mortgage loan offices to FSC's operations 
and were the primary factor behind the 22.6% rise in the number of FSC 
employees.  CrossLand Mortgage Acquisition Corporation ("CrossLand") and 
First Security Bank of Nevada ("FSB Nevada") were the largest of these 
acquisitions, with combined noninterest expenses of $14.91 million for 
the second quarter of 1994 and $17.97 million for year-to-date 1994.
   FSC's "core" noninterest expenses, excluding the noninterest expenses 
of CrossLand and FSB Nevada, were $95.62 million for the second quarter 
of 1994, up $5.54 million (6.1%) from the year-ago quarter, and totaled 
$193.92 million for year-to-date 1994, up $18.61 million (10.6%) from 
the year-ago period.
   FSC's efficiency ratio (the ratio of noninterest expenses to the sum 
of FTE net interest income and noninterest income), including all 
acquisitions, was 65.68% for the second quarter of 1994, compared with 
65.35% for the year-ago quarter, and 65.57% for year-to-date 1994, 
compared with 63.03% for the year-ago period.
   FSC's "core" efficiency ratio, excluding the total impact of 
CrossLand and FSB Nevada, was 62.51% for the second quarter of 1994, 
improved from 65.35% for the year-ago quarter, and 63.99% for year-to-
date 1994, compared with 63.03% for the year-ago period.
   The provision for income taxes for the second quarter of 1994 was 
$20.21 million on pre-tax income of $55.43 million, resulting in an 
effective quarterly tax rate of 36.5% compared with 34.9% one year ago.  
For year-to-date 1994, the provision for income taxes totaled $38.78 
million on pre-tax income of $107.16 million, resulting in an effective 
year-to-date tax rate of 36.2% compared with 36.5% for the year-ago 
period.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
   As described in this and following sections, FSC continued to 
increase its earning assets, strengthen its asset quality, and maintain 
a strong total capital position as of June 30, 1994, as compared to both 
December 31, 1993, and June 30, 1993.
   FSC's total assets were a record $11.73 billion at June 30, 1994, up 
$2.24 billion (23.7%) from June 30, 1993 and up $1.52 billion (14.9%) 
from December 31, 1993 (see Financial Statements: Condensed Consolidated 
Balance Sheets).  Total earning assets were $10.48 billion at quarter 
end, up $1.96 billion (23.0%) from one year ago and up $1.15 billion 
(12.4%) from the year end (see Section: Interest-Earning Assets and 
Asset Quality).  This was due primarily to growth in the loan portfolio, 
plus the positive impact of recent acquisitions, and planned corporate 
growth.  Loans were a record $7.28 billion at quarter end, up $1.34 
billion (22.5%) from one year ago and up $722 million (11.0%) from year 
end.  Increases occurred in every loan category, particularly in 
consumer loans and real estate secured loans.
   The combined balance of interest-bearing deposits in other banks, 
Federal funds sold and securities purchased under resale agreements, and 
trading account securities was $805.87 million at June 30, 1994, up 
$89.89 million (12.6%) from June 30, 1993, but down $199.60 million 
(19.9%) from December 31, 1993.  Historically, these balances have 
fluctuated significantly in response to both market conditions and the 
Corporation's need for funds.  Fluctuations in other assets and other 
liabilities are due to accounts receivable and accounts payable related 
to unsettled transactions arising from the purchase and sale of 
securities.  Intangible assets were $160.74 million at June 30, 1994, up 
$146.89 million (1,060.6%) from June 30, 1993 and up $148.90 million 
(1,258.4%) from December 31, 1993.  This was due to the acquisition of 
CrossLand, which created $63.85 million in mortgage servicing rights and 
$85.05 million in goodwill.
   Total deposits were a record $7.89 billion at June 30, 1994, up $909 
million (13.0%) from June 30, 1993, and up $384 million (5.1%) from 
December 31, 1993.  As with total assets, the increase from one year ago 
was due to the positive impact of recent acquisitions and planned 
corporate growth.  At quarter end, total deposits consisted of: 
interest-bearing deposits of $6.04 billion, up $590 million (10.8%) from 
one year ago and up $238 million (4.1%) from year end; and noninterest-
bearing deposits of $1.84 billion, up $319 million (20.9%) from one year 
ago and up $146 million (8.6%) from year end.  The relatively high 
percentage of noninterest-bearing deposits to total deposits has helped 
to reduce FSC's cost of supporting its earning assets, and was 23.37% at 
June 30, 1994, compared with 21.85% one year ago and 22.62% at year end.
   In addition to deposits, FSC supported the growth in its earning 
assets with borrowed funds and equity.  Borrowed funds totaled $2.72 
billion at June 30, 1994, up $1.30 billion (91.9%) from June 30, 1993, 
and up $1.01 billion (59.1%) from December 31, 1993.  These increases 
occurred in: Federal funds purchased and securities sold under 
repurchase agreements, which were $2.33 billion at quarter end, up $1.21 
billion (107.0%) from one year ago and up $946 million (68.2%) from the 
year end; and long-term debt, which was $312.01 million at quarter end, 
up $74.11 million (31.2%) from one year ago and up $87.17 million 
(38.8%) from the year end, due to advances from the Federal Home Loan 
Bank to support retention of mortgage loans originated by the 
Corporation.
   Maintaining a strong total capital position has been and continues to 
be a high priority for FSC (see Section: Capital Adequacy).  Total 
stockholders' equity increased to a record $858.77 million at June 30, 
1994, up $82.27 million (10.6%) from June 30, 1993, and up $23.04 
million (2.8%) from December 31, 1993.  This growth was due primarily to 
record earnings combined with the effects of acquisitions.

INTEREST-EARNING ASSETS and ASSET QUALITY
   FSC borrowers reside principally in those states where the 
Corporation has its banking offices (Utah, Idaho, New Mexico, Oregon, 
Nevada, and Wyoming) as well as in contiguous market areas.  FSC has 
policies and procedures designed to mitigate credit risk and to maintain 
the quality of the Corporation's loan and investment securities 
portfolios.  These include underwriting standards for new credits and 
the continuous monitoring and reporting of asset quality and adequacy of 
the reserve for loan losses.
   Loans:
      FSC's loan portfolio, net of unearned income but before the 
reserve for loan losses, totaled a record $7.28 billion at June 30, 
1994, up $1.34 billion (22.5%) from June 30, 1993 and up $722 million 
(11.0%) from December 31, 1993.  In comparing the various components of 
the Corporation's loan portfolio at June 30, 1994, with June 30, 1993 
and December 31, 1993, the following points should be noted (see 
Supplemental Table: Loans Outstanding):
      1. Commercial loans totaled $1.64 billion, up $169 million (11.4%) 
from the year-ago quarter and up $70 million (4.5%) from year-end 1993.  
This was due primarily to increases in loans made to FSC's small- and 
middle-market customers.
      2. Real estate secured loans totaled $2.84 billion, up $538 
million (23.4%) from the year-ago quarter and up $296 million (11.6%) 
from year-end 1993.  This was due in large part to the CrossLand 
acquisition, combined with the effects of other acquisitions and 
increased retention of loans.  For balance sheet management purposes, 
FSC did not retain all newly-originated fixed-rate mortgage loans but 
passed some through to secondary markets while retaining the majority of 
the loan servicing.  FSC's acquisition of CrossLand allows FSC to expand 
its real estate lending activities nationwide (see Section: Mergers and 
Acquisitions).
      3. Consumer loans totaled $2.50 billion, up $576 million (30.0%) 
from the year-ago quarter and up $330 million (15.2%) from year-end 
1993.  This was due primarily to growth in indirect auto loans, 
reflecting FSC's position as the leading consumer lender in both Utah 
and Idaho.
   Problem Assets:
      Problem assets were reduced to $42.18 million at June 30, 1994, 
down $58.67 million (58.2%) from June 30, 1993, and down $17.79 million 
(29.7%) from December 31, 1993 (see Supplemental Table: Financial 
Highlights - Problem Assets and Financial Highlights - Selected Ratios).  
The ratio of total problem assets to total loans and ORE was 0.58% at 
quarter end, down from 1.69% one year ago and 0.91% at year end.  This 
decrease was due to a healthy regional economy and continued high loan 
underwriting standards.  Despite a general downward trend in problem 
assets over the past two years, it has been FSC's experience that 
economic cycles and loan-specific events beyond its control cause 
cyclical fluctuations in problem assets, sometimes with little or no 
warning.  This has led the Corporation to take a conservative approach 
in its analysis of the reserve for loan losses.  As discussed below, 
significant reductions were achieved in nearly all categories of problem 
assets as of June 30, 1994.
      Nonaccruing loans were $24.61 million at June 30, 1994, down 
$39.91 million (61.9%) from June 30, 1993, and down $11.74 million 
(32.3%) from December 31, 1993.  Nonaccruing loans equaled 0.34% of the 
loan portfolio at quarter end, down from 1.09% one year ago and 0.55% at 
year end.
      ORE and other foreclosed assets were $8.39 million at June 30, 
1994, down $18.79 million (69.1%) from June 30, 1993, and down $8.08 
million (49.1%) from December 31, 1993.  ORE property values are 
reviewed at least annually, and the portfolio is adjusted to the lower 
of cost or fair value less estimated selling costs.
      Accruing loans past due 90 days or more were $9.18 million at 
quarter end, down $34 thousand (0.4%) from June 30, 1993, but up $2.03 
million (28.4%) from year end.
      Potential problem loans identified by FSC were $19.18 million at 
June 30, 1994, down $4.45 million (18.8%) from year-end 1993.  Potential 
problem loans consisted primarily of commercial real estate loans and 
commercial loans.  These loans are less than 90 days delinquent and are 
accruing.  In identifiying potential problem loans, FSC considers the 
repayment source, the value of the collateral, and the borrower's 
ability and willingness to repay the loan.  All significant additions to 
problem assets had been previously identified as potential problem 
loans.  Meaningful comparisons of the current quarter with periods prior 
to December 31, 1993 are not possible because FNFC did not identify 
potential problem loans; potential problem loans excluding FSB New 
Mexico and FSB Nevada were $26.36 million at June 30, 1993.
   Reserve for Loan Losses:
      In keeping with its philosophy of maintaining a conservative 
balance sheet, particularly in the face of uncertainties in the 
national/global economy and the strong economic expansion in its primary 
markets, FSC continued to maintain its conservative reserve for loan 
loss position.  The Corporation's philosophy regarding the adequacy and 
use of its reserve was discussed in detail on pages 50 through 53 of its 
combined 1993 Annual Report and Form 10-K.
      The reserve for loan losses was $132.71 million at June 30, 1994, 
up $5.82 million (4.6%) from June 30, 1993, but down $2.13 million 
(1.6%) from December 31, 1993 (see Supplemental Table: Financial 
Highlights - Reconciliation of the Reserve for Loan Losses).  Growth in 
the reserve was less than growth in loans due to improved asset quality 
and the acquisition of CrossLand which had loans held for resale which 
did not need corresponding reserves.  The resulting ratio of the reserve 
for loan losses to total loans was 1.82% at quarter end, down from 2.13% 
one year ago and 2.06% at year end.  At the same time, the "coverage" 
ratio (the ratio of the reserve for loan losses to nonaccruing loans) 
was 539.27% on June 30, 1994, up from 196.68% one year ago and 370.93% 
at year end.  This increase in the reserve was mostly the result of 
merger transactions which added reserves of $6.18 million during the 
last 12 months and $851 thousand in the year-to-date six months.
      FSC charges loan losses against the reserve for loan losses when 
such losses become probable and subject to reasonable estimation.  Net 
loans charged off were $2.49 million for the quarter, up $278 thousand 
(12.6%) from the year-ago quarter, and totaled $3.16 million for year-
to-date 1994, down $1.55 million (32.9%) from the year-ago period (see 
Supplemental Table: Financial Highlights - Reconciliation of the Reserve 
for Loan Losses).  Net losses continued to be low due to the combined 
effect of a healthy regional economy, excellent asset quality, and a 
high level of recoveries on loans charged off.  The ratio of net loans 
charged off to average loans was a low 0.14% for the quarter, down from 
0.15% for the year-ago quarter, and was 0.09% for year-to-date 1994, 
down from 0.17% for the year-ago period.

STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY and CAPITAL ADEQUACY
   Maintaining a strong total capital position has been and continues to 
be a high priority for FSC.  Total stockholders' equity increased to a 
record $858.77 million at June 30, 1994, up $82.27 million (10.6%) from 
June 30, 1993, and up $23.04 million (2.8%) from December 31, 1993.  
This was due primarily to record earnings combined with the effects of 
acquisitions.  The acquisition of CrossLand and the resulting growth in 
total assets and intangible assets impacted the Corporation's equity 
ratios during the second quarter of 1994.  The ratio of stockholders' 
equity to total assets was 7.32% at June 30, 1994, compared with 8.18% 
one year ago and 8.18% at year-end 1993.  For the same periods, the 
ratio of tangible common equity to tangible total assets was 6.03%, 
compared with 8.04% one year ago and 8.07% at year-end 1993 (see 
Supplemental Table: Financial Highlights - Selected Ratios).
   FSC's risk-based capital ratios at June 30, 1994, were: Tier 1 at 
9.92%, compared with 11.82% at year end, and Total Capital at 12.12%, 
compared with 14.15% at year end (see Supplemental Table: Financial 
Highlights - Risk-Based Capital Ratios).  All of FSC's equity-related 
ratios exceeded the regulatory minimums, reflecting the Corporation's 
long-standing emphasis on a strong total capital position.  FSC and its 
subsidiary banks are classed as "well-capitalized institutions" 
according to the regulatory definition for risk-based capital ratios.
   On January 24, 1994, FSC increased its quarterly cash dividend paid to 
$0.26 per share, up $0.03 per share (13.0%) from the previous $0.23 per 
share.  This increased quarterly cash dividend, paid June 6, 1994 to 
shareholders of record on May 20, 1994, equals an annualized dividend 
rate of $1.04 per share, up $0.12 per share (13.0%) from the previous 
$0.92 per year.
   The continuing 1994 dividend marked the 60th consecutive year in 
which the Corporation has paid cash dividends.  National and state 
banking and insurance regulations impose restrictions on the ability of 
FSC's bank and insurance subsidiaries to transfer funds to the 
Corporation in the form of loans or dividends.  Such restrictions have 
not had, nor are they expected to have, any effect on FSC's current 
dividend policy. The Corporation's current and past record of dividend 
payments should not be construed as a guarantee of similar dividend 
payments in the future.

MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS
   FSC's merger and acquisition activity (See Supplemental Table: Mergers 
and Acquisitions) reflects management's strategy of diversifying and 
enhancing the Corporation's financial services delivery system through 
the expansion and geographical diversification of its bank branch network 
and nonbank activities in new and existing markets.  Management believes 
that long-term returns on the stockholders' investment will benefit from 
these acquisitions, and will continue its strategy of acquiring solid, 
well-managed financial services companies when suitable opportunities 
arise.
   On April 29, 1994, First Security Bank of Utah, N.A. (FSB Utah) 
acquired CrossLand Mortgage Acquisition Corporation ("CrossLand"), 
the parent company of CrossLand Mortgage Corp. (not affiliated 
with CrossLand Savings Bank), a 1-to-4 family residential mortgage 
loan originator and servicer which has 60 offices in 18 states 
across the country.  This acquisition was accounted for using the 
purchase method of accounting.
   On May 20, 1994, FSB Utah acquired Community First Bank 
(headquartered in Clearfield, Utah) with five branches, $74 
million in assets, and $62 million in deposits.  This acquisition 
was accounted for using the pooling-of-interests method of 
accounting.
   On July 15, 1994, First Security Bank of Idaho, N.A. acquired 
American Ban Corporation (headquartered in Boise, Idaho) with four 
branches, $64 million in assets, and $51 million in deposits.  
This acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of 
accounting.
   Currently, FSC has announced a pending purchase of Star Valley State 
Bank ("Star Valley"; located in Afton, Wyoming) with one branch and $57 
million in deposits.  This acquisition is expected to be completed on 
August 22, 1994.

NATIONAL & REGIONAL ECONOMY
   Changes in monetary policy and rising interest rates dominated the 
United States economic landscape and financial markets in the second 
quarter.  With a series of four adjustments, the Federal Reserve 
increased short-term interest rates from 3.00% to 4.25%.  Yields in the 
nation's bond market also rose by essentially the same magnitude, thus 
keeping the yield-curve spread nearly unchanged.  Economic growth in the 
second quarter of 1994 was 3.7% - slightly faster than the 3.3% gain 
recorded in the first quarter of 1994.  Job growth has improved and 
should remain healthy in the second half of 1994.  Financial markets 
continue to evaluate future inflation potential with considerable 
caution.  Inflation, as measured by the broad indices, remains below 
3.0%, but investors are concerned about higher commodity prices, near-
capacity utilization of resources, and the U.S. dollar's weakness in 
foreign exchange markets.  In the months ahead, as cyclical pressures 
continue to mount, further increases in short-term interest rates will 
probably occur in the marketplace.
   The regional economy served by FSC remains among the fastest-growing 
areas in the United States.  Job growth in the second quarter continued 
to be exceptionally strong, accelerating above the 1993 average.  In 
April, Nevada, Utah, and Idaho were the top three states in new 
employment opportunities.  Despite higher mortgage rates, single-family 
and apartment construction and residential real estate sales experienced 
significant increases during the January to May period.  Consumer 
confidence is strong, which, combined with a growing population, is 
sustaining large gains in retail sales.

(A) June 30, 1993 figures have been restated to reflect the November 19, 1993 pooling-of-interests merger
    with First National Financial Corp. (FNFC).  Meaningful comparisons of individual loan categories with
    periods prior to December 31, 1993 are not possible because FNFC's loan detail did not permit restate-
    ment; only the subtotals and totals shown for the year-ago quarter have been restated to include FNFC.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
   First Security Corporation (FSC) and its subsidiaries are subject 
from time to time to various claims and legal actions filed or 
threatened by customers and others arising in connection with the 
Corporation's regular business activities.  In all litigation filed 
against it, FSC vigorously defends itself against unfounded claims, with 
a concomitant cost in legal fees and expenses.  Some legal actions filed 
against the Corporation seek inflated damage amounts, often in an effort 
to force compromise of a troubled loan transaction, and are disclosed 
from time to time in filings with the SEC as required by applicable 
rules.  Since the filing of FSC's 1993 Annual Report and Form 10-K, 
there have been no material developments in connection with pending 
legal proceedings not already disclosed in previous filings with the 
SEC.
