ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP
Report of Independent Public Accountants
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
of Star Banc Corporation:
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Star
Banc Corporation (an Ohio corporation) as of June 30, 1995, and the
related condensed consolidated statements of income for the three-month and
six-month periods then ended, and the condensed consolidated statements of
changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended
June 30, 1995 and 1994. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Corporation's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interin
financial information consists principally of applying analytical
procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible
for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope
than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding
the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express
such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the financial statements referred to above for them to be in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Star Banc Corporation as of
December 31, 1994 (not presented herein), and, in our report dated January
9, 1995, we expressed an unqualified opinion on that statement. In our
opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed
consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1994, is fairly stated, in
all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from
which it has been derived.

NOTE 5. IMPAIRED LOANS
Effective January 1, 1995, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 114 (SFAS No. 114), as amended by Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 118 (SFAS No. 118), related to accounting
by creditors for impairment of loans. SFAS No. 114 requires that impaired
loans as defined by the statement be measured based on (1) the present
value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective
interest rate, or (2) as a practical expedient, at 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, a valuation allowance is recorded. The Corporation
had previously measured the allowance for loan losses on impaired loans using
methods similar to those prescribed by SFAS No. 114.
The valuation allowance recorded on impaired loans is included in the
total allowance for loan losses shown in Note 4. In addition to the methods
prescribed in SFAS No. 114 for impaired loans, the adequacy of the total
allowance for loan losses is based on management's evaluation of several key
factors, including the current loan portfolio, current economic conditions,
evaluation of significant problem loans, changes in the mix and levels of
various types of loans, past charge-off experience and other pertinent
information. There was no additional allowance for loan losses required
in 1995 as a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 114 and No. 118.
The following table shows the Corporation's recorded investment in impaired
loans and the related valuation allowance, as calculated under SFAS No. 114,
at June 30, 1995. (Dollars are in thousands)

Total impaired loans $ 27,779 $ 2,804
The average recorded investment in impaired loans for the six months
ended June 30, 1995 was $28 million. As a general policy, the Corporation
applies both principal and interest payments received on impaired loans as
a reduction of principal. No interest income was recognized on impaired
loans in the first six months of 1995.

NOTE 7. ACQUISITIONS
On July 15, 1995, Star Bank, N.A. ("the Bank"), the lead bank of the
Corporation, purchased 24 Columbus area branch offices of the Ohio division
of Household Bank, f.s.b. This transaction will be accounted for as a
purchase, and accordingly, all assets acquired and liabilities assumed will
be recorded at fair value. In purchasing these branches, the Bank received
$564 million in cash and $645 million in deposits for a premium of 9.75
percent of deposits or approximately $64 million. The allocation of the
purchase price has not been completed at this time.
NOTE 8. MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS
In May 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 122 (SFAS No. 122) "Accounting for
Mortgage Servicing Rights, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 65." SFAS
No. 122 requires a mortgage banking enterprise to capitalize mortgage
servicing rights on originated mortgage loans, when the underlying loans
are sold or securitized and servicing is retained. A mortgage banking
enterprise that acquires mortgage servicing rights through either the
purchase or origination of mortgage loans and sells or securitizes those
loans with servicing rights retained should allocate the total cost of
the mortgage loans to the mortgage servicing rights and the loans
(excluding the servicing rights) based on their relative fair values.
SFAS No. 122 also requires that capitalized servicing rights are assessed
based on the fair value of those rights. Capitalized mortgage servicing
rights should be stratified based upon one or more of the predominant
risk characteristics of the underlying loans and impairment should be
recognized through a valuation allowance for each impaired stratum.
Adoption of SFAS No. 122 is required for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1995 and is applied prospectively to transactions in which
mortgage loans are sold or securitized with servicing rights retained
and to impairment valuations of all capitalized mortgage servicing rights.
Management anticipates adoption of SFAS No. 122 in 1996, and is currently
assessing the impact on the Corporation's financial condition and results
of operations.

ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
OVERVIEW
Net income of Star Banc Corporation ("the Corporation") for the quarter ended
June 30, 1995, was $33,770,000, an 18.4 percent increase over the second quarter
of 1994. Net income for the first six months of 1995 was $66,536,000 an 18.0
percent increase compared to 1994. Primary and fully diluted earnings per
share were $1.12 for the second quarter of 1995, compared to $0.95 and $0.94,
respectively, for the second quarter of 1994. These amounts represent increases
of 17.9 percent and 19.1 percent on primary and fully diluted earnings per
share, respectively. For the first half of 1995, earnings per share was $2.21
on both a primary and fully diluted basis. This was an increase over 1994 of
17.6 percent on a primary basis and 19.5 percent on a fully diluted basis.
Earnings results for the second quarter and first half of 1995 reflect
increases in net interest income and noninterest income. Included in the first
quarter of 1995 was a $1.3 million gain on sale of $375 million in
available-for-sale securities. Excluding the gain on sale of securities, net
income was $65.7 million for the first half of 1995, an increase of 16.5 percent
over the same period in 1994. Fully diluted earnings per share were $2.18
excluding the gain, an increase of 17.8 percent over 1994.
Return on average assets was 1.47 percent for the second quarter and 1.44
percent for the first half of 1995, relatively flat compared to the same
periods in 1994. These ratios represent an improvement over the fourth quarter
of 1994 and first quarter 1995, as these periods were affected by the
TransOhio acquisition. Return on average equity increased to 17.61 percent for
the second quarter and 17.71 percent for the first six months of 1995 compared
to 16.44 percent for the same periods in 1994.
On September 17, 1994, Star Bank, N.A., ("the Bank") acquired 47 former
TransOhio Federal Savings Bank branch offices located in the Cleveland and
Akron, Ohio areas from the Resolution Trust Corporation. The Bank acquired
$1.1 billion in deposits for a premium of $122 million in this transaction
On July 15, 1995, Star Bank, N.A., the lead bank of the Corporation,
acquired 24 Columbus area branch offices of the Ohio division of Household Bank,
f.s.b. This transaction will be accounted for as a purchase, and accordingly,
the assets acquired and liabilities assumed will be recorded at estimated fair
value. In purchasing these branch offices, the Bank received $564 million in
cash and acquired $645 million in deposits for a premium of approximately $64
million.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets at June 30, 1995, amounted to $9.23 billion compared to $9.39
billion at December 31, 1994. The decline in total assets was due to the sale of
$375 million in securities in the first quarter of 1995. Total loans, net of
unearned interest, increased to $6.71 billion at June 30, 1995, compared to
$6.25 billion at December 31, 1994. The corporation has experienced strong
increases in loan volumes for most lending areas in the first half of 1995.
Total loans, net of unearned interest, have increased at an annualized rate of
14.8 percent in the first half of 1995. During the first six months of 1995,
commercial loans increased $112 million, real estate loans increased $212
million and retail loans were up $135 million.
Investment securities declined $582 million to $1.75 billion at June 30,
1995, compared to $2.33 billion at December 31, 1994. This decrease was due to
the sale of $375 million in mortgage-backed securities in the first quarter, in
addition to, sales of $31 million in mortgaged-backed securities and $17 million
-15-
<PAGE>
of U.S. Treasuries in the second quarter of 1995. All security sales were from
the Corporation's available-for-sale portfolio. The proceeds of these sales
were used to pay down higher cost borrowings. These sales have contributed to
the improvements in earnings, net interest margin, return on assets and capital
ratios in the second quarter of 1995.
As of June 30, 1995, the Corporation's investment securities portfolio included
$1.68 billion in securities classified as held-to-maturity a decline of $81
million from December 31, 1994. There was $63 million in securities classified
as available-for-sale at June 30, 1995, a decline of $500 million from December
31, 1994.
Deposits declined $379 million to $6.98 billion at June 30, 1995, from $7.36
billion at December 31, 1994. This decline was due to a $219 million decrease in
foreign deposits $100,000 and over and a $154 million decline in savings and
NOW accounts. Foreign deposits declined in the first six months of 1995 due
primarily to reduction in funding needs as a result of the sale of investment
securities. The Corporation also noted customers continuing to shift funds from
savings and NOW accounts into higher yielding money market accounts,
certificates of deposit and nonbank financial products in the first half of
1995. As a result of this movement of customer funds, money market deposit
accounts increased $55 million or 8.5 percent in the first half of 1995.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net interest income, the Corporation's principal source of earnings, increased
$7.4 million in the second quarter and $17.3 million for the first half of
1995. These represent increases of 8.7 percent in the second quarter and 10.4
percent for the first half of 1995, compared to the same periods in 1994. The
increases in 1995 were due to an increase in the level of average
interest-earning assets, which were up $1.27 billion or 17.6% in the first half
of 1995, compared to 1994. Average loans were up $990 million or 18.1 percent
in the first six months of 1995, compared to 1994. In addition, average
securities increased $308 million in the first six months of 1995, related to
the TransOhio acquisition. The increase in net interest income due to the
higher loan and securities levels was partially offset by the continued decline
in spreads between the rates received on earning assets relative to rates paid
on interest-bearing liabilities.
Net interest margin declined 30 basis points to 4.44 percent in the second
quarter of 1995, compared to 4.74 percent for the same period in 1994. Net
interest margin for the first half of 1995 declined 29 basis points compared to
the prior year. The TransOhio acquisition has compressed the Corporation's net
interest margin for 1995, compared to 1994, as the proceeds received were
invested in securities which have lower yields than the average yields of the
Corporation's assets. The Corporation's net interest margin has begun to
rebound in the second quarter of 1995, as the continued strong loan growth has
been funded by maturities and sales of lower yielding securities. The increases
in market rates over the last year resulted in a 93 basis point increase in
asset yields in the second quarter of 1995, compared to 1994, which was more
than offset by a 123 basis point increase in the cost of supporting funds.
The average rate spread between yields earned on interest-earning assets and the
rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities declined 39 basis points in the
second quarter and 34 basis points for the first six months of 1995. Table 1
provides detailed information as to the average balances, interest
income/expense and rates earned or paid by major balance sheet category.
Net interest income after provision for loan losses was impacted by a $1.1
million increase in the provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 1995,
compared to 1994. This increase is due primarily to continued loan growth in
1995. As described in the Asset Quality section, nonperforming loans and
charge-off levels have improved compared to 1994.
-16-
<PAGE>
Noninterest income was $33.5 million for the second quarter of 1995, an
increase of $4.9 million or 17.1 percent, from $28.6 million for the same
period of 1994. Service charges on deposits increased $2.1 million or 24.6
percent for the second quarter, due in part to the TransOhio acquisition.
Other areas recognizing increases for the second quarter included ATM fees,
credit card fees and trust income which were up 51.6, 21.1 and 15.0 percent,
respectively, compared to the same period in 1994. For the first six months of
1995, noninterest income has increased $9.2 million or 15.9 percent, compared to
the prior year. This increase was led by service charges on deposits, ATM fees
and credit card fees. Also included in 1995 are net gains on sales of
securities of $1.2 million. Excluding the net securities gains, noninterest
income increased $8.0 million or 13.8 percent in 1995, compared to the same
period in 1994.
Noninterest expense totaled $68.5 million in the second quarter of 1995, a
6.0 percent increase from $64.7 million for the same period of 1994. The
increase in noninterest expenses in 1995 was due to primarily to the TransOhio
acquisition. Additional expenses included in 1995 related to TransOhio include
salaries, occupancy, FDIC insurance, equipment, supplies and amortization of
intangibles. Also contributing to this increase were employee awards and
incentives based on a "pay for performance" philosophy in achieving sales and
product goals and objectives and an increase in benefits costs. The
Corporation's noninterest expense ratio decreased 245 basis points to 53.96
percent for the second quarter of 1995, compared to 56.41 percent for the same
period of 1994. For the first half of 1995, the noninterest expense ratio
decreased 66 basis points to 54.85 percent. The improvement in the noninterest
expense ratio in 1995 is a result of growth in revenues, continued strong
loan growth and stringent expense controls. The efficiency ratio is
expected to trend upward in the third quarter of 1995 as a result of the
Household Bank acquisition. However, as the integration of the Household
offices is completed, the efficiency ratio should improve.
The Corporation's effective tax rate amounted to 33.4 percent for the three
months and six months ended June 30, 1995. This compares to an effective tax
rate of 34.2 percent for the second quarter and 34.7 percent for the first half
of 1994. The decline in the effective rate for 1995 is due to tax benefits
received from Corporate and Bank owned life insurance programs established in
the beginning of 1995, in addition to tax benefits recorded on limited
partnership investments of the parent company.
ASSET QUALITY
As of June 30, 1995, the allowance for loan losses was $103.0 million or 1.54
percent of loans, net of unearned interest. This compares to an allowance of
$96.0 million or 1.54 percent of loans, net of unearned interest, at December
31, 1994. The allowance as a percentage of nonperforming loans has continued to
improve, increasing to 304.3 percent at June 30, 1995, compared to 272.3 percent
at December 31, 1993.
Table 3 provides a summary of activity in the allowance for loan losses
account by type of loan. As shown in that table, net charge-offs totaled $3.2
million in the second quarter of 1995, up slightly from $2.9 million for the
same period a year earlier. Net charge-offs for the first six months of 1995
were $5.1 million, a decrease of $2.0 million, compared to 1994. Annualized net
charge-offs as a percentage of average outstanding loans were 0.19 percent for
the second quarter and 0.16 percent for the first half of 1995. This compares
to 0.21 percent and 0.26 percent, respectively, for the same periods in 1994.
-17-
<PAGE>
Net charge-offs increased slightly in the second quarter of 1995, compared
to the prior year. This increase was due to a single large commercial
charge-off on a national credit. Real estate loans were in a net recovery
position for the second quarter due to two large recoveries. For the six months
ended June 30, 1995, net charge-offs have declined $2.0 million, compared to
1994. The most significant decrease was in the commercial loan area due in part
to a large recovery received in 1995.
As shown in Tables 4 and 5, the Corporation has continued to reduce the level
of nonperforming assets over the last year. Nonperforming assets declined $7.9
million to $35.8 million at June 30, 1995, compared to June 30, 1994.
Nonperforming assets have declined $2.2 million in the first half of 1995, as
nonaccrual loans in the commercial loan and commercial real estate portfolios'
have continued to decline. The percentage of nonperforming loans to
end-of-period loans declined to 0.50 percent from 0.56 percent at December 31,
1994. Loans past-due 90 days or more and still accruing interest decreased
$1.7 million in the first six months of 1995, and $5.1 million compared to June
30, 1994. This decrease also occurred within the commercial loan and commercial
real estate portfolios'.
Effective January 1, 1995, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 114 (SFAS No. 114), as amended by Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 118 (SFAS No. 118), related to accounting by
creditors for impairment of loans. SFAS No. 114 requires that impaired loans as
defined by the statement be measured based on (1) the present value of the
expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, or
(2) as a practical expedient, at 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, a
valuation allowance is recorded. The Corporation had previously measured the
allowance for loan losses on impaired loans using methods similar to those
prescribed by SFAS No. 114.
The specific valuation allowance recorded on impaired loans is included in
the total allowance for loan losses. In addition to the methods prescribed in
SFAS No. 114 for impaired loans, the adequacy of the total allowance for loan
losses is monitored on a continual basis and is based on management's evaluation
of several key factors: the quality of the current loan portfolio, current
economic conditions, evaluation of significant problem loans, an analysis of
periodic internal loan reviews, delinquency trends and ratios, changes in the
mix and levels of various loan types, historical charge-off and recovery
experience and other pertinent information. These estimates are reviewed
continually and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in
earnings in the period in which they become known. It is management's opinion
that the allowance for loan losses at June 30, 1995 was adequate to absorb all
anticipated losses in the loan portfolio as of that date.
The recorded investment in impaired loans at June 30, 1995 was $27.8 million
with a related valuation allowance calculated under SFAS No. 114 of $2.8
million. There was no additional allowance for loan losses required in 1995 as
a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 114 and No. 118.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In May 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 122 (SFAS No. 122) " Accounting for Mortgage
Servicing Rights, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 65." Management
anticipates adopting SFAS No. 122 in 1996 as is required. Additional
information on SFAS No. 122 is shown in Note 8 of the Notes to Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES and CASH FLOWS
To ensure that adequate funds are always available to meet unexpected customer
demands for funds, such as high levels of deposit withdrawals or loan demand, or
other aspects of the banking business, the Corporation has succeeded in
developing and maintaining a large stable base of core funding from customers
based in its local market areas. By policy, the Corporation limits the amount
each banking subsidiary can borrow, subject to the Corporation's ability to
borrow funds in the capital markets in an efficient and cost effective manner.
The Corporation's lead bank, Star Bank N.A. ("the Bank"), is a member of the
Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati, and in 1995 began issuing national market
retail certificates of deposits. In 1994, the Bank prepared an offering
circular in order to issue bank notes of up to $500 million with terms that can
vary from 30 days to 30 years. Currently, the Bank has not issued any notes
under this offering circular. In addition to these funding alternatives, the
Corporation maintains a presence in the national fed funds, repurchase
agreement, certificate of deposit and Eurodollar markets.
In the first quarter of 1995, the Bank began issuing retail brokered
certificates of deposit, with $50 million outstanding at June 30, 1995. The
Corporation's consolidated long-term debt, which includes senior and promissory
notes, declined $3.2 million to $163 million at June 30, 1995. The decrease in
long-term debt was due to scheduled principal payments.
Total shareholders' equity increased $54 million in the first six months to
$772 million at June 30, 1995. The Corporation also raised its quarterly
dividend rate per common share from $0.35 in 1994 to $0.40 in 1995, a 14.0
percent increase.
Banking industry regulators define minimum capital requirements for banks and
bank holding companies. The Corporation's tier 1 and total risk-based capital
ratios at June 30, 1995 were 8.84 percent and 12.21 percent, respectively, well
above the minimum requirements of 4.0 percent for tier 1 capital to
Risk-weighted assets and 8.0 percent for total capital to risk-weighted assets.
These compare to tier 1 and total ratios of 8.66 percent and 12.16 percent at
December 31, 1994. Regulatory authorities have also established a minimum
adjusted equity-to-average quarterly assets ("leverage") ratio of 3.00 percent.
As of June 30, 1995 the Corporation's leverage ratio was 6.84 percent compared
to 6.27 percent at December 31, 1994. The Corporation's leverage ratio improved
in the second quarter of 1995 due to a full quarters' effect of the sale of
$375 million in mortgage-backed securities. The proceeds from the sale of these
securities were used to reduce short-term borrowings. The increases in the
Corporation's regulatory capital ratios in the first quarter of 1995 was due to
the retention of earnings net of dividends declared.
In 1994, the board of directors of the Corporation approved a common stock
buyback program to purchase up to one million shares of common stock over the
next three years. The repurchased shares are held as treasury shares for reissue
in connection with conversion of preferred shares, employee stock options and
other corporate purposes. Through June 30, 1995, the Corporation has
repurchased 663,000 shares, of which 53,000 had not yet been reissued.
As shown in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, cash and
cash equivalents declined $93 million in the first six months of 1995,
compared to a decline of $118 million for the same period in 1994. Cash flows
provided by operating activities amounted to $35 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1995 compared to $121 million for the same period in 1994.

</page>
The decrease was attributable to a $50 million investment in bank owned life
insurance in the first quarter of 1995, in addition to a $22 million net change
in mortgage loans held for sale in the first six months of 1995, compared to the
same period in 1994. Investing activities provided $137 million in cash flows
in the first half of 1995, compared to a use of $456 million in the first six
months of 1994. This change was due to the reduction of the investment
securities portfolio in 1995 as a result of security sales and maturities.
The funds provided by the security sales and maturities were used to fund
loan growth, reduce the level of short-term borrowings and replace funding
previously provided by national market deposit sources. Cash flows used in
financing activities were $265 million in the first six months of 1995 as a
result of the decline in deposit levels.
