                                 Part I

Item 1.  Financial Statements.

     The following consolidated financial statements of the Company which
are submitted herewith as an exhibit and are incorporated herein by
reference:

     1.  Consolidated Balance Sheets, September 30, 1995, September 30,  
         1994 and December 31, 1994.

     2.  Consolidated Statements of Earnings, quarters ended September 30, 
         1995 and 1994 and nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994.

     3.  Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, nine months ended September
         30, 1995 and 1994.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
         Results of Operations.    

     
Premier Financial Services, Inc.'s earnings for the third quarter, 1995
totaled $1,953,000 or $.25 per share versus $1,615,000, or $.20 per share
for the same quarter in 1994.  Year to date earnings increased to
$4,626,000 as compared to $4,360,000 in 1994.  Return on average assets and
common equity  was .98% and 11.68%, respectively, for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995, as compared to .97% and 11.43% for the same period in
1994.

Year-to-date net interest income totaled $16.6 million in 1995, as compared
to $16.1 million in 1994.  Net interest income for the third quarter of
1995 increased by approximately $230,000 and $131,000 as compared to the
second quarter of 1995 and the third quarter of 1994.  The slight period-
to-period increases continue to be primarily a result of earning asset
volume as opposed to rate or net interest margin improvement.  Average
earning assets totaled $560.1 million at September 30, 1995, an increase
of $6.5 million from $553.6 million reported at June 30, 1995 and an
increase of $28.7 million from $531.4 million reported one year ago.  Our
net interest margin at 4.19% as of September 30, 1995 remained unchanged
from June 30, 1995 and reflects a 12 basis point decrease from September
30, 1994. 

Provision for possible loan losses in the third quarter of 1995 totaled
$334,000, decreasing earnings per share by $.03 as compared to $100,000
($.01 per share) in 1994.  The increased provision is primarily a result
of loan portfolio growth.  Since year end 1994 net loans have grown by more
than $32 million.  Management believes that the current level of the
allowance for loan losses is adequate and remains consistent with the
composition of the portfolio and recent credit quality history.

Total noninterest income, excluding gains on investment securities,
increased by approximately $245,000 in the third quarter of 1995 as
compared to the same period in 1994.  In addition to the increase in "core
noninterest income" (i.,e., service charges on deposits, trust fees and 


                                 -2-

other income) net investment security gains for the third quarter of 1995
totaled $300,000, or $.03 per share, as compared to $26,000 in the third
quarter of 1994.  Total noninterest expenses in the third quarter of 1995
decreased by approximately $90,000 as compared to 1994.  A decrease of
$309,000, or $.03 per share, in federal deposit insurance premiums was
partially offset by increases in salary and benefits, occupancy, furniture
and fixtures, and legal/professional fees.
