NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. See Note 1 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements in CVB Financial Corp.'s 1996 Annual
Report. Goodwill resulting from purchase accounting treatment of acquired
banks is amortized on a straight line basis over 15 years.
On January 1, 1995, the Bank adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a
Loan," as amended by SFAS No. 118, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment
of a Loan -- Income Recognition and Disclosures." The adoption of this
statement did not have a material effect on the results of operations or
the financial position of the Bank taken as a whole. Impaired loans totaled
$14.1 million at March 31, 1997. Of this total, $9.4 million, or 67.13%,
represented loans that were supported by collateral with a fair market
value, net of prior liens, of $23.3 million. At March 31, 1997, $4.6
million, or 32.87%, of total impaired loans represented loans for which
repayment was projected to come from cash flows.
2. Certain reclassifications have been made in the 1996 financial information
to conform to the presentation used in 1997.
3. In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into commitments to
extend credit to its customers. These commitments are not reflected in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 1997, the
Company had entered into commitments with certain customers amounting to
$127.4 million compared to $103.7 million at December 31, 1996. Letters of
credit at March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, were $8.4 million and $8.5
million, respectively.
4. The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and reflect all
adjustments and reclassifications which, in the opinion of management, are
necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations and financial
condition for the interim period. All adjustments and reclassifications are
of a normal and recurring nature. Results for the period ending March 31,
1997, are not necessarily indicative of results which may be expected for
any other interim period or for the year as a whole.
5. The actual number of shares outstanding at March 31, 1997, was 10,018,534.
Earnings per share are calculated on the basis of the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the quarter plus shares issuable upon
the assumed exercise of outstanding common stock options. The number of
shares used in the calculation of earnings per share was 10,395,497 at
March 31, 1997 and 10,148,691 at March 31, 1996. All 1996 per share
information in the financial statements and in management's discussion and
analysis has been restated to give retroactive effect to the 10% stock
dividend declared on December 18, 1996.
6. Supplemental cash flow information. During the three-month period ended
March 31, 1997, loans amounting to $7.9 million were transferred to Other
Real Estate Owned ("OREO") as a result of foreclosure on the real
properties held as collateral. OREO sold during the three-month period
ended March 31, 1997, amounted to $149,000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Management's discussion and analysis is written to provide greater insight
into the results of operations and the financial condition of CVB Financial
Corp. and its subsidiaries. For a more complete understanding of CVB Financial
Corp. and its operations, reference should be made to the financial statements
included in this report and in the Company's 1996 Annual Report 10K. Certain
statements in the Report on Form 10-Q constitute "forward-looking statements"
under the Private Securities Litigation reform Act of 1995 which involve risk
and uncertainties. The Company's actual results may differ significantly from
the results discussed in such forward-looking statements. Factors that might
cause such a difference include but are not limited to economic conditions,
competition in the geographic and business areas in which the Company conducts
operations, fluctuations in interest rates, credit quality and government
regulations. For additional information concerning these factors, see "Item 1.
Business - Factors that May Affect Results" contained in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.
Throughout this discussion, "Company" refers to CVB Financial Corp. and its
subsidiaries as a consolidated entity. "CVB" refers to CVB Financial Corp. as
the unconsolidated parent company, and "Bank" refers to Citizens Business Bank.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company reported net earnings of $3.4 million for the first quarter of
1997. This represented and increase of $592,000, or 21.47%, over net earnings of
$2.8 million for the first quarter of 1996. Earnings per share increased to
$0.32 per share for the most recent quarter, compared to $0.27 per share for the
same period last year. The annualized return on average assets was 1.22%, and
the annualized return on average equity was 14.54%, for the first quarter of
1997. For the first quarter of 1996, the annualized return on average assets was
1.23%, and the annualized return on average equity was 13.73%.
Pre-tax operating earnings, which excludes the impact of gains or losses on
sale of securities and OREO, the provisions for credit and OREO losses, and the
settlement of litigation, totaled $6.7 million for the first quarter of 1997.
This represented an increase of $843,000, or 14.37%, over pre-tax operating
income of $5.9 million for the first quarter of 1996.

<PAGE>
Net Interest Income/Net Interest Margin
The principal component of the Company'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 net interest spread is the yield on average earning assets
minus the cost of average interest-bearing deposits and borrowed funds. The
Company's net interest margin was 5.96% for the first quarter of 1997, compared
to a net interest margin of 5.95% for the first quarter of 1996. The Company's
net interest spread was 4.71% for both the first quarter of 1997 and 1996.
Although the net interest margin and net interest spread changed little for
the first quarter of 1997 compared to the first quarter of 1996, net interest
income increased significantly. Net interest income totaled $14.1 million for
the first quarter of 1997. This represented an increase of $2.4 million, or
20.85%, over net interest income of $11.6 million for the first quarter of 1996.
The increase in net interest income for the first quarter of 1997 was the result
of a greater average balance of earning assets. Average earning assets totaled
$960.3 million for the first quarter of 1997. This represented an increase of
$172.6 million, or 21.90%, over average earning assets of $787.7 million for the
first quarter of 1996.
Total interest income was $19.7 million for the first quarter of 1997. This
represented an increase of $3.2 million, or 19.12%, greater than total interest
income of $16.5 million for the first quarter of 1996. Interest and fees from
loans totaled $14.0 million for the first quarter of 1997. This represented an
increase of $1.6 million, or 12.93%, over interest and fees from loans of $12.4
million for the first quarter of 1996. The increase in interest and fees on
loans resulted from an increase in the balance of average gross loans to $581.2
million for the first quarter of 1997, compared to an average of $503.8 million
for the first quarter of 1996. The yield on average gross loans decreased to
9.63% for the first quarter of 1997, compared to a yield of 9.84% for the first
quarter of 1996. The decrease reflected lower average interest rates in general
for the most recent quarter.
Interest from investments totaled $5.7 million for the first quarter of
1997. This represented an increase of $1.6 million, or 37.81%, over interest
from investments of $4.1 million for the first quarter of 1996. The increase in
interest from investments resulted from both a higher average yield and a
greater average balance of investments for the first quarter of 1997 compared to
the first quarter of 1996. The yield on average investments was 5.97% for the
first quarter of 1997, compared to a yield of 5.78% for the first quarter of
1996. Average investments increased to $379.1 million for the first quarter of
1997, compared to $283.9 million for the first quarter of 1996.
Total interest expense was $5.6 million for the first quarter of 1997. This
represented an increase of $726,000, or 14.96%, over total interest expense of
$4.9 million for the first quarter of 1996. The cost of average deposits and
other interest bearing liabilities decreased to 3.57% for the first quarter of
1997, compared to an average cost of 3.71% for the first quarter of 1996. The
decrease reflected lower average interest rates in general for the most recent
quarter.

<PAGE>
Interest on deposits totaled $4.9 million for the first quarter of 1997.
This represented an increase of $653,000, or 15.49%, over interest on deposits
of $4.2 million for the first quarter of 1996. Average deposits increased to
$937.8 million for the first quarter of 1997, compared to $759.2 million for the
first quarter of 1996. Interest on other borrowed funds totaled $713,000 for the
first quarter of 1997. This represented an increase of $73,000, or 11.41%, over
interest on other borrowed funds of $640,000, for the first quarter of 1996. The
cost of other borrowed funds decreased to 5.14% for the first quarter of 1997,
compared to 5.44% for the first quarter of 1996. Average borrowed funds
increased to $55.5 million for the first quarter of 1997, compared to an average
of $47.0 million for the first quarter of 1996.
Table 1 shows the average balances of assets, liabilities, and
stockholders' equity and the related interest income, expense, and rates for the
three month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. Rates for tax-advantaged
investments are shown on a taxable equivalent basis using a 34.0% tax rate.
Table 2 summarizes the changes in interest income and interest expense based on
changes in average asset and liability balances (volume) and changes in average
rates (rate). For each category of earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities, information is provided with respect to changes attributable to (1)
changes in volume (change in volume multiplied by initial rate), (2) changes in
rate (change in rate multiplied by initial volume) and (3) changes in
rate/volume (change in rate multiplied by change in volume).

<PAGE>
The net interest spread and the net interest margin are largely affected by
the Company's ability to reprice assets and liabilities as interest rates
change. At March 31, 1997, the Bank's 90 days or less maturity/repricing gap was
a negative $233.3 million, compared to a negative gap of $182.1 million at
December 31, 1996. Generally, a negative gap produces a higher net interest
margin and net interest spread when rates fall and a lower net interest margin
and net interest spread when rates rise. However, as interest rates earned on
different asset products and interest rates paid for different liability
products offered by the Bank respond differently to changes in market interest
rates, gap analysis is only a general indicator of interest rate sensitivity.
Credit Loss Experience
The Company maintains an allowance for potential credit losses. The
allowance is increased by a provision for credit losses charged against
operating results and from recoveries on loans previously charged off. The
allowance is reduced by loan losses charged to the allowance. The allowance for
credit losses was $10.3 million at March 31, 1997. This represented a decrease
of $1.9 million, or 15.62%, over the allowance for credit losses of $12.2
million at December 31, 1996. At March 31, 1997, the allowance for credit losses
was equal to 1.80% of gross loans, representing a decrease from an allowance for
credit losses that was equal to 2.08% of gross loans at December 31, 1996.
For the first quarter of 1997, the provision for credit losses was
$780,000. This represented a decrease of $433,000, or 35.69%, from a provision
for credit losses of $1,213,000, for the first quarter of 1996. The decrease
reflected slower overall loan growth, and lower levels of nonperforming loans
for the most recent quarter. Loans charged to the allowance for credit losses,
net of recoveries, totaled $2,692,000 for the first quarter of 1997, compared to
net loans charged to the allowance of $387,000 for the first quarter of 1996.
Nonaccrual loans decreased to $13.4 million at March 31, 1997, compared to
$17.6 million at December 31, 1996. This represented a decrease of $4.2 million,
or 23.96%. Table 6 presents nonperforming assets (nonaccrual loans, loans 90
days or more past due, restructured loans, and other real estate owned) as of
March 31, 1997, and December 31, 1996. The Company has adopted the methods
prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 114 for
determining the fair value of specific loans for which the eventual collection
of all principal and interest is considered impaired.
While management believes that the allowance was adequate at March 31, 1997
to absorb losses from any known or inherent risks in the portfolio, no assurance
can be given that economic conditions which adversely affect the Company's
service areas or other circumstances will not be reflected in increased
provisions or credit losses in the future. Table 3 shows comparative information
on net credit losses, provisions for credit losses, and the allowance for credit
losses for the periods indicated.

Other Operating Income
Other operating income includes service charges on deposit accounts, gain
on sale of securities, gross revenue from Community Trust Deed Services (the
Company's non-bank subsidiary), and other revenues not derived from interest on
earning assets. Other income for the first quarter of 1997 totaled $3.3 million.
This represented a decrease of $1.3 million, or 28.61%, from total other
operating income of $4.6 million for the first quarter of 1996. Included as
other income for the first quarter of 1996 was a $2.1 million settlement paid to
the Bank resulting from litigation with a former officer of the Bank and
Company.
Net of the legal settlement paid to the Bank in 1996, other operating
income for the first quarter of 1997 increased $787,000, or 31.58%, over other
operating income for the first quarter of 1996. The increase was primarily the
result of trust fee income. On March 29, 1996, the Bank purchased Citizens
Commercial Trust and Savings Bank of Pasadena (Citizens Bank of Pasadena),
including their trust division with trust assets in excess of $800.0 million.
Gross fee income from trust services for the first quarter of 1997 totaled
$755,000.
Other Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses totaled $10.9 million for the first quarter of
1997. This represented an increase of $702,000, or 6.84%, over other operating
expenses of $10.3 million for the first quarter of 1996. Other operating
expenses for the first quarter of 1997 were affected by the addition of four
branch offices and the trust division associated with the acquisition of
Citizens Bank of Pasadena on March 29, 1996.
Salaries and related expenses totaled $5.5 million for the first quarter of
1997. This represented an increase of $1.3 million, or 29.81%, over total
salaries and related expenses of $4.2 million for the first quarter of 1996.
Occupancy and equipment expense totaled $1.6 million for the first quarter of
1997. This represented an increase of $213,000, or 15.05%, over total occupancy
and equipment expense of $1.4 million for the first quarter of 1996. The
increases for these expense categories for the first quarter of 1997 compared to
the same period for 1996, were primarily the result of the increases in branches
and operating units resulting from the acquisition.
The Bank provides an allowance for the potential of losses on other real
estate owned (OREO) by charging a provision to earnings. For the first quarter
of 1997, the provision for potential OREO losses totaled $315,000, compared to a
provision of $2.1 million for the first quarter of 1996. OREO, net of the
allowance, totaled $13.2 million at March 31, 1997. This represented an increase
of $7.0 million, or 113.36%, over OREO net of the reserve of $6.2 million at
December 31, 1996.
Other operating expenses, measured as a percent of average assets were
3.99% for the first quarter of 1997, compared to 4.59% for the first quarter of
1996. The efficiency ratio, which compares other operating expenses to net
revenue, was 63.19% for the first quarter of 1997, compared to 63.22% for the
first quarter of 1996.
BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS
At March 31, 1997, total assets were $1.1 billion. This represented a
decrease of $36.5 million, or 3.14%, from total assets of $1.2 billion at
December 31, 1996. Gross loans totaled $575.1 million at March 31, 1997. This
represented a decrease of $13.8 million, or 2.35%, from gross loans of $588.9
million at December 31, 1996. Total deposits were $953.0 million at March 31,
1997, representing a decrease $37.6 million, or 3.79%, from total deposits of
$990.6 million at December 31, 1996. The decrease in loans, deposits and assets
at March 31, 1997 compared to December 31, 1996 is due in part to normal
seasonal trends related to the Bank's agricultural related customers.
Investment Securities and Debt Securities Available-for-Sale
At March 31, 1997, investment securities totaled $399.5 million. This
represented an increase of $15.5 million, or 4.03%, over total investments of
$384.1 million at December 31, 1996. Table 4 sets forth investment securities
classified as held-to-maturity and available-for-sale at March 31, 1997 and
December 31, 1996.

At March 31, 1997, the Company's unrealized losses on
securities-available-for sale totaled $3.9 million. The Company recorded an
adjustment decreasing equity capital by $2.2 million, and an adjustment to
deferred tax assets of $1.6 million. At December 31, 1996, the Company reported
a net unrealized loss on investment securities available for sale of $339,000,
with an adjustment to equity capital of $196,000. Note 2 of the Notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements in CVB's 1996 Annual Report discusses its
current accounting policy as it pertains to recognition of market values for
investment securities held as available for sale.

As set forth in Table 6, nonperforming assets (nonaccrual loans, loans 90
days or more past due, restructured loans, and other real estate owned) totaled
$26.6 million, or 2.37% of total assets, at March 31, 1997. This compared to
nonperforming assets of $29.8 million, or 2.56% of total assets, at December 31,
1996. Nonperforming assets decreased $3.1 million, or 10.52%, between March 31,
1997 and December 31, 1996.
Although management believes that nonperforming loans are generally well
secured and that potential losses are provided for in the allowance for credit
losses, there can be no assurance that a deterioration in economic conditions,
or collateral values, will not result in future credit losses.

At March 31, 1996, nonaccrual loans were $13.4 million. This represented a
decrease of $4.2 million, or 23.96%, from nonaccrual loans of $17.6 million at
December 31, 1996. To some extent, the decrease in nonaccrual loans contributed
to the increase in other real estate owned, as nonperforming loans were
foreclosed. At March 31, 1997, the majority of nonaccrual loans were
collateralized by real property. The estimated ratio of the outstanding loan
balances to the fair values of related collateral (loan-to-value ratio) for
nonaccrual loans at that date ranged from approximately 6% to 142%. The Bank has
allocated specific reserves to provide for any potential loss on these loans.
Management cannot, however, predict the extent to which the current economic
environment may worsen or the full impact such an environment may have on the
Company's loan portfolio.
Deposits and Other Borrowings
At March 31, 1997, deposits totaled $953.0 million. This represented an
decrease of $37.6 million, or 3.79%, over total deposits of $990.6 million at
December 31, 1996. Seasonal fluctuations from agricultural deposits normally
result in large short term balances at the end of December, contributing to a
decrease in deposits between December and March of each year.
Non interest bearing demand deposits totaled $381.5 million at March 31,
1997. This represented a decrease of $49.7 million, or 11.53%, from non interest
bearing demand deposits of $431.2 million at December 31, 1996. Again, seasonal
fluctuations in agricultural deposits normally result in a decrease in the
Bank's non interest bearing demand deposits between December and March of each
year.
Liquidity
The 1996 annual report describes the Company's principal sources of
liquidity, management's liquidity objectives, and the methods used to measure
performance to these objectives.
There are several accepted methods of measuring liquidity. Since the
balance between loans and deposits is integral to liquidity, the Company
monitors its loan-to-deposit ratio (gross loans divided by total deposits) as an
important part of its liquidity management. In general, the closer this ratio is
to 100%, the more reliant an institution becomes on its illiquid loan portfolio
to absorb fluctuations in deposits. At March 31, 1997, the Company's
loan-to-deposit ratio was 60.35%, compared to a ratio of 59.45% at December 31,
1996.
Another method used to measure liquidity is the liquidity ratio. This ratio
is calculated by dividing the difference between short-term liquid assets and
marketable securities by deposits and borrowed funds. As of March 31, 1997, the
liquidity ratio was 44.20%. Conceptually, this shows that the Company had liquid
assets or marketable securities equal to 44.20% of its total deposits and
borrowed funds at March 31, 1997.
18
<PAGE>
The Company generated cash flows from operating activities of $6.5 million
for the first quarter of 1997, compared to $6.7 million for the first quarter of
1996. Net cash used for investing activities totaled $14.6 million for the first
quarter of 1997, and $3.6 million for the first quarter of 1996. For the most
part, the increased use of funds for investment activities resulted from an
increase in the purchase of investment securities for the first quarter of 1997.
Cash used for financing activities totaled $40.0 million for the first quarter
of 1997 compared to $18.2 million for the first quarter of 1996. The increase in
funds used for financing activities for the first quarter of 1997, reflects the
decrease in noninterest bearing demand deposits during the three month period.
Capital Resources
The Company's equity capital was $89.7 million at March 31, 1997. The
primary source of capital for the Company continues to be the retention of net
after tax earnings. The Company's 1996 annual report (management's discussion
and analysis and note 14 of such accompanying financial statements) describes
the regulatory capital requirements of the Company and the Bank.
The Bank and the Company are required to meet risk-based capital standards
set by the respective regulatory authorities. The risk-based capital standards
require the achievement of a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted
assets of 8.0% (of which at least 4.0% must be Tier 1 capital). In addition, the
regulatory authorities require the highest rated institutions to maintain a
minimum leverage ratio of 3.0%. At March 31, 1997, the Bank and the Company
exceeded the minimum risk-based capital ratio and leverage ratio required to be
considered "Well Capitalized".
Table 7 below presents the Company's and the Bank's risk-based and leverage
capital ratios as of March 31, 1997, and December 31, 1996:

On April 16, 1997, the board of directors of the Company authorized the
repurchase of shares of its common stock, from time to time, at the discretion
of the Company, through open market purchases or in private transactions in an
aggregate amount of up to $9.0 million, or 500,000 shares. As of April 30, 1997,
the Company had purchased 19,500 shares for an average price of $18.92 per
share, resulting in a $368,875 reduction in the shareholders' equity for the
Company.
