         which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement

                   FIRST BANKING COMPANY OF SOUTHEAST GEORGIA
               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSIONS AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                  CONDITION AND SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS FOR THE
                       THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995

         This discussion relates to the consolidated financial condition and
results of operations of First Banking Company of Southeast Georgia (the
"Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, First Bulloch Bank & Trust
Company and Metter Banking Company (the "Banks").  Since the Company has no
subsidiaries other than the Banks and no activities other than those of the
Banks, the following narrative refers to the operations of the Banks.

                              FINANCIAL CONDITION

         The Company functions as the sole owner of two commercial banks, and
its financial condition should be examined in terms of trends in sources and
uses of funds.  The Company's primary use of funds comes from loan demand.
Loans outstanding have increased $898,000 or 0.6% since year-end.  Investment
securities have increased $7,462,000, and federal funds sold have decreased by
$2,325,000 from year-end.

         Total assets have increased by $8,798,000 since year-end, while total
funds (deposits plus Other Borrowed Money) have increased $7,292,000.  Total
deposits have increased $6,416,000 since year-end and Other Borrowed Money has
increased $876,000.  Demand deposits have increased $44,000, and savings
deposits (including NOW accounts and the liquid money market accounts) have
increased by $2,729,000.  Time deposits over $100,000 have increased
approximately $1,000,000, and other time deposits have increased approximately
$2,643,000, primarily as a result of an increase in rates paid on deposits.

         Effective May 15, 1995, the Company has declared a 5-for-3 stock split
of its common stock effected in the form of a 60 percent stock dividend.  All
references to number of shares and to per share amounts have been retroactively
adjusted to reflect the split.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company's ratio of shareholders' equity to total assets was 10.2%
at March 31, 1995 and 10.0% at December 31, 1994.  This ratio of shareholders'
equity to assets is considered adequate to support the operations of the
Company.


                                       5

LIQUIDITY

         The percentage of net loans to total funds was 68.1% at March 31, 1995
and 69.8% at December 31, 1994.  At March 31, 1995 the Banks had $31,271,000 in
Cash and Due from Banks, Interest Bearing Deposits in Other Banks, and Federal
Funds Sold as compared with $30,732,000 at December 31, 1994.  The liquidity of
the Company and the Banks is considered adequate to repay deposits and other
obligations, meet expected loan demand and pay dividends.

                             SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS

INTEREST INCOME

         Total interest income increased $1,293,000 (30.3%) in the first three
months of 1995 as compared to the first three months of 1994.  Interest on
loans increased $938,000 in the first three months of 1995 as compared to the
first three months of 1994, as a result of higher interest rates on loans
outstanding as well as an increase in the average loan portfolio of
$12,470,000.  Interest on investments increased $148,000, primarily as a result
of higher yields within the portfolio as well as an increase of $7,680,000 in
the average carrying amount of investments.

         During the first three months of 1995, interest on federal funds sold
decreased $66,000 from the first three months of 1994, while interest on
Interest-bearing Deposits in Other Banks increased $224,000.   This decrease
and increase were the result of a shift in short-term investments from federal
funds sold to interest bearing deposit accounts.

INTEREST EXPENSE

         During the first three months of 1995, total interest expense
increased $571,000 (33.2%) from the first three months of 1994.  Interest on
deposits increased $490,000 (28.6%) in the first three months of 1995 from the
first three months of 1994.  This increase is attributable to higher interest
rates paid on deposits outstanding in 1995 as compared to 1994 as well as an
increase in the average amount of interest bearing deposits.  Interest on Other
Borrowed Money increased $81,000 in the first three months of 1995 from the
first three months of 1994.  This increase is the result of an increase in the
average balance outstanding of Other Borrowed Money at a higher average
interest rate.

PROVISIONS FOR LOAN LOSSES

         Provisions for loan losses for the first three months of 1995
decreased $17,000 from the first three months of 1994.  After considering the
credit worthiness of the loan portfolios, it is the opinion of the management
of the Banks that the allowance for loan losses is adequate.  At March 31, 1995
the allowance for loan losses was 1.9% of outstanding loans less unearned
interest.

OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSE

         Other income decreased $21,000 in the first three months of 1995 from
the first three months of 1994, primarily as a result of a decrease in income
from long-term mortgage loans originated for other banks.  Other expense
increased $102,000 in the first three months of 1995 compared to the first
three months of 1994, primarily as a result of increases in certain costs of
the operations of the Banks.
