                                FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) and in Management's opinion, include all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair
presentation of results for such interim periods.  Certain information and
note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted
pursuant to SEC rules or regulations; however, the Company believes that the
disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading.

The interim results for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994,
are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.  It is suggested
that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes included in the Company's Annual Report for the year
ended December 31, 1994.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year's financial
statements in order to conform with the classifications of the September 30,
1995 financial statements.

NOTE B - IMPAIRED LOANS AND TROUBLED DEBT RESTRUCTURINGS

As of January 1, 1995, the Company adopted the FASB Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No 114, ACCOUNTING BY CREDITORS FOR IMPAIRMENT OF A
LOAN, (SFAS 114) and SFAS 118, ACCOUNTING BY CREDITORS FOR IMPAIRMENT OF A
LOAN - INCOME RECOGNITION AND DISCLOSURES.  SFAS 114 requires that certain
impaired loans be measured based on the present value of expected future cash
flows discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate.  As a
practical expedient, impairment may be measured based on the loan's
observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is
collateral dependent.  When the measure of the impaired loan is less than the
recorded investment in the loan, the impairment is recorded through a
valuation allowance.

The Company had previously measured the allowance for loan losses using
methods similar to those prescribed in SFAS 114.  As a result of adopting
these statements, no additional allowance for loan losses was required as of
January 1, 1995.

As of September 30, 1995, the Company's recorded investment

114 are as follows:

                                         -----------       -----------
</TABLE>

The valuation allowance related to impaired loans under SFAS 114 is included
in the allowance for loan losses on the consolidated balance sheet at
September  30, 1995.  The average recorded investment in impaired loans for
the nine months ended September 30, 1995 was $3,077,000.

Interest payments received on impaired loans are recorded as interest income
unless collection of the remaining recorded investment is doubtful at which
time payments received are recorded as reductions of principal.  The Company
recognized interest income on impaired loans of $170,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1995.

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


As TriCo Bancshares (the "Company" ) has not commenced any business
operations independent of Tri Counties Bank (the "Bank"), the following
discussion pertains primarily to the Bank.  Average balances, including such
balances used in calculating certain financial ratios, are generally
comprised of average daily balances for the Company.  Unless otherwise
stated, interest income and net interest income are presented on a tax
equivalent basis.

OVERVIEW

The Company earned $1,844,000 for the third quarter ended September 30, 1995
versus $1,234,000 in 1994.  Fully diluted earnings per share for the third
quarter periods were $0.38 and $0.24, respectively.  Earnings for the nine
months ended September 30, 1995 were $5,238,000 versus year ago results of
$4,049,000.  The fully diluted earnings per share were $1.06 and $.80 for the
respective nine month periods. The earnings per share results have been
adjusted for a five for four (5/4) stock split effected as a stock dividend
in September 1995.

Operating results of the Bank for the third quarter improved on a year over
year basis as well as compared to second quarter 1995 results.  Net income
before taxes increased $738,000 or 30.9% in the third quarter of 1995 versus
1994 and $137,000 or 4.6% versus the prior quarter.  Net interest income,
noninterest income and noninterest expenses all had favorable changes from
the year ago third quarter.  Net interest income increased $82,000 or 1.2%
due to higher average rates received on earning assets and lower average
balances on interest bearing liabilities.  These increases in net interest
income were partially offset by lower average balances on earning assets and
higher rates on interest bearing liabilities.  Net interest margin for the
third quarter of 1995 was 5.49% versus 5.24% in 1994.  Noninterest income
increased $185,000 or 14.7%.  Service charges and fee revenues accounted for
most of the increase.  Noninterest expenses decreased $431,000 or 7.6%.  Of
this amount, approximately $216,000 was attributable to the reduction in the
FDIC deposit insurance premiums.  The third quarter of 1994 contained one
time merger costs of approximately $512,000.  These reductions were offset in
part by increases in premise and equipment related expenses and other
expenses.

Assets of the Company totaled $575,321,000 at September 30, 1995 which was an
increase of $10,603,000 from the 1995 second quarter ending balances.  All of
this increase was reflected in loans as those balances increased $11,185,000
during the quarter.  However, total assets were $19,989,000 lower from year
ago balances.  Management has generally allowed the investment portfolio to
decrease as securities mature or principal payments on mortgage backed
securities take place.  As a result the securities portfolio decreased about
$23,186,000 from year ago balances.  Loan

balances increased $6.2 million from the prior year third quarter.  These two
items account for most of the changes in assets.  Decreases in deposit
liabilities of $15,340,000 and reverse repurchase agreements of $15,672,000
and a $7,700,000 increase in Federal Funds Purchased from year ago levels
mostly offset the changes in the assets.

At September 30, 1995, the year to date annualized ROA was 1.21% and the ROE
was 13.9%.  For the same period in 1994 these ratios were .92% and 11.4%
respectively.  At the end of the third quarter of 1995, TriCo Bancshares had
a leverage ratio of 9.1% based on ending assets, a Tier 1 capital ratio of
13.5% and a total risk-based capital ratio of 14.7%.  These compared to 8.4%,
13.0% and 14.3% in 1994.

The following tables provide a summary of the major elements of income and
expense for the third quarter of 1995 compared with the third quarter of 1994
and for the first nine months of 1995 compared with the first nine months of
1994.

NET INTEREST INCOME / NET INTEREST MARGIN

Net interest income represents the excess of interest and fees earned on
interest-earning assets (loans, securities and Federal Funds sold) over the
interest paid on deposits and borrowed funds.  Net interest margin is net
interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets.  Net
interest income comprises the major portion of the Bank's income.

In the quarter ended September 30, 1995, interest income increased $549,000
or 4.9 percent over the same period in 1994.  Higher rates received on loans
and a small increase in average loan balances were the factors contributing
to the interest income increase. Average rates received on loans were 103
basis points or 10.2% higher and reflected the 1994 and early 1995 increases
in prime rate. Average loan balances were $2,490,000 (.8%) higher.  These two
items provided an increase of $870,000 in interest income.  The interest
income increase for loans was offset in part by a decrease of $297,000 in
interest income from investment securities.  For the third quarter of 1995,
the average balance of investment securities was $20,766,000 or 9.2% lower
than for the same period of 1994.  This reduction in investment securities
was basically the result of maturities and paydowns received on the portfolio.

For the third quarter of 1995, interest expense increased by $483,000 or
11.9% over the year earlier period.  Interest paid on time deposits increased
$1,001,000 or 72.1%.  Because of the rate increases precipitated by the
Federal Reserve Bank, average rates paid on time deposits increased from
4.92% in 1994 to 5.75% in 1995.  This accounted for an increase in interest
expense of $600,000.  As the rates paid on time deposits increased deposits
shifted from savings accounts into the time certificates.  Increases in the
time deposit balances resulted in additional interest expense of $401,000.
This was offset in part by a $401,000 (24.9%) decrease in interest paid on
savings accounts due to the lower average balances.  All other categories of
interest bearing liabilities had lower average balances from the third
quarter in 1994.

The combined effect of the increase in both interest income and interest
expense for the third quarter of 1995 versus 1994 resulted in a slight
increase of $66,000 in net interest income.  Net interest margin increased 25
basis points from 5.24% to 5.49%.

For the nine month period ending September 30, 1995, interest income
increased $2,420,000 or 7.6% over 1994. Essentially all of the increase was
the result of higher rates earned on all categories of interest earning
assets.  The average rate. received on earning assets increased 78 basis
points or 9.8%.  Additional interest

                                       13

<PAGE>

earned on a 1.4% increase in loan volume was offset by reduced interest
income on a 5.2% decrease in balances of investment securities.

Interest expense for the nine month period increased $1,834,000 over the 1994
amount.  This 15.9% increase was mostly due to rate and volume increases in
time deposits as interest paid on those instruments increased $2,701,000 or
69.4%.  The major offsetting item to this increase was a $1,010 (20.6%)
decrease in interest paid on savings accounts due to lower average balances.
The higher rates paid on time deposits caused customers to move funds from
savings accounts.  Overall rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities in the
first nine months of 1995 increased 67 basis points to 4.03% from the same
period in 1994.

The combined effect of the increase in both interest income and interest
expense for the first nine months of 1995 versus 1994 resulted in an increase
of $586,000 in net interest income.  Net interest margin increased 25 basis
points from 5.10% to 5.35%.

The following four tables provide summaries of the components of the interest
income, interest expense and net interest margins on earning assets for the
quarter and nine month periods ended September 30, 1995 versus the same
periods in 1994.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

In the first nine months of 1995, the Bank provided $235,000 for loan losses
versus $230,000 in 1994.  The provision replenished the net loans charged off
during the first nine months of 1995 and added $50,000 for growth in
outstanding loan balances.  The allowance for loan losses was 1.77% of
outstanding loans versus 1.83% at December 31,1994.  Management's ongoing
analysis of the loan portfolio determined that the remaining balance of
$5,658,000 in the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover probable
losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Total noninterest income for the third quarter of 1995 increased $185,000 or
14.7% from the same period in 1994.  Selective rate increases in service
charges which took effect January 1, 1995 as well as increased volumes in
some fee categories added approximately $130,000 to noninterest income.
Commissions on the sale of annuities and mutual funds also contributed to the
increase as they were up $104,000 or 62.9%.  This revenue was offset in part
by a $47,000 (80.9%) decline in sale of 1-4 family mortgages as origination's
of these loans have been significantly down in 1995.  No other individual
items had significant changes.

Results for the nine months were consistent with the third quarter.  Overall,
noninterest income increased $748,000 or 19.9% in 1995 versus 1994.  Service
charges and fee income accounted for $458,000 of the increase.  This increase
resulted from the same factors as detailed above.  In the other income
category non recurring income items increased $295,000 and commissions on the
sale of annuities and mutual funds increased by $75,000 (11.2%) during the
first nine months of 1995.  These increases were offset in part by a $137,000
reduction in revenue from the sale of 1-4 family mortgage loans.  Mortgage
lending activity has been significantly lower during 1995.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense is comprised of operating expenses of the Company and the
Bank, plus the total noninterest (income) expenses (excluding gains or losses
from securities) of the Bank's real estate development subsidiary.  These
expenses decreased $431,000 or 7.6% in the third quarter of 1995 versus the
same period last year.

For the quarter, salaries and benefits reflected a slight decrease from the
prior year.  This reduction was due in part to a reduction in staffing levels
as average full time equivalent employees decreased 5.6 from the prior year.
Also, one time merger payments of $178,000 were incurred in 1994.

Other expenses decreased $401,000 or 13.4% in the third quarter .  Two major
factors contributed to the decrease.  In 1994 merger costs totaling $512,000
were incurred and in 1995 the FDIC insurance premium rate was reduced
resulting in a favorable change of $228,000 for the quarter.  These savings
were offset in part by net increases of $120,000 in premise and equipment
expenses and $220,000 in other operating expenses.  These increases were
incurred in various expense categories with no significant changes in any one
category.

For the nine month period noninterest expenses decreased $354,000 or 2.1% in
1995 over 1994.  Taking the 1994 one time merger costs of $916,000 into
account results in a net increase in noninterest expenses of $562,000 or
3.6%.  Salaries and related expenses were up $226,000 or 2.8% due to normal
salary progressions and the full nine month effect of supermarket operations
begun in 1994. Premise and equipment expenses were up $296,000 or 12.2% with
much of the increase related to the supermarket branches.  Decreases of
$122,000 (31%) and $231,000 (27%) were realized in advertising and FDIC
insurance expenses.  Other categories of expenses had moderate increases or
decreases.

Management continually reviews these expenses and expense controls.  With the
addition of more supermarket branches the ongoing expenses will probably
continue to show modest increases.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 is 41.1%.
This rate approximates the combined California and Federal statutory rates.
The actual rate equals the statutory rate as the Bank does not have
significant holdings of tax exempt securities.  The Bank does not anticipate
increasing its holdings of tax-free securities in the near term.

LOANS

In the third quarter of 1995, loan balances increased $11,185,000 or 3.6%
from the ending balances at June 30, 1995.  Loan balances were higher in all
categories.  The balances also exceeded year end balances by $12,530,000 and
1994 third quarter ending balances by $6,113,000. While the economy in the
Bank's market area has remained relatively soft, the Bank has been
aggressively marketing its loan products.  Loan underwriting standards have
been maintained, but pricing has been more competitive.  Some of the growth
in commercial loan balances has come from the normal advances on seasonal
agricultural production credit lines.  Management believes modest loan growth
should continue through the fourth quarter.

SECURITIES

At September 30, 1995, securities held-to-maturity had a cost basis of
$132,594,000 and a fair value of $130,004,000.  This portfolio contained
mortgage-backed securities totaling $89,026,000 of which $39,832,000 were
CMO's.  The securities available-for-sale portfolio had a fair market value
of $69,337,000 with an amortized cost basis of $70,258,000.  This portfolio
contained mortgage-backed securities totaling $33,364,000 of which
$26,006,000 were CMO's.  At December 31, 1994 the fair value of the two
portfolios was $17,482,000 or 7.8% less than amortized cost.  Because of the
declining long term interest rates during 1995, at September 30 the fair
value of securities reflected an unrealized loss of $3,511,000 or 1.7% of
amortized cost.  If loan demand continues to improve, management intends to
continue to move funds from maturing securities into loans.

NONPERFORMING LOANS

As shown in the following table, total nonperforming assets have increased a
modest $7,000 since year end.  Nonperforming assets decreased $1,574,000 from
the second quarter balance of $4,604,000.  Most of that decrease took place
in the nonaccrual loan category.  Non performing assets represent only 0.53%
of total assets.  Nonaccrual loans increased while OREO decreased during this
period.  All nonaccrual loans are considered to be impaired when determining
any valuation allowance under SFAS 114 (see (Note B). The Collections
Department personnel continue to make a concerted effort to work problem and
potential problem loans to reduce risk of loss.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The Bank maintains its allowance for loan losses at a level considered by
Management to be adequate to cover the risk of loss in the loan portfolio at
a particular point in time.  This determination includes an evaluation and
analysis of historical experience, current loan mix and volume, and projected
economic conditions.

The following table presents information concerning the allowance and
provision for loan losses.
