             NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)
                                March 31, 1995
 

1.   The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company,
     its wholly-owned, and substantially wholly-owned subsidiaries.
     
     The financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction
     with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's 1994
     Annual Report to Shareholders and Form 10-K.

     The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments, which consists
     only of normal recurring accruals, which are, in the opinion of management,
     necessary to reflect a fair statement of the interim period. Certain
     reclassifications were made to prior years' financial statements to conform
     them to the improved classifications used in 1995. These reclassifications
     had no effect on net income.

2.   Net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the average
     number of shares outstanding during the period.
 
3.   In a business combination during 1995, the Company assumed liabilities of
     $168,947,000 and non-cash assets of $156,416,000.

4.   The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in
     estimating fair values of financial instruments as discussed herein. Fair
     values of financial instruments that are not actively traded are based on
     market prices of similar instruments and/or valuation techniques using
     market assumptions. Although management uses its best judgement in
     estimating the fair value of these financial instruments, there are
     inherent limitations in any estimation technique. Therefore, the fair value
     estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts
     which the Company could realize in a current transaction.
                                                                                
     General Assumptions: The Company assumes that the carrying amount of short-
     term financial instruments approximates their fair value. For these
     purposes, short-term is defined as any item that matures, reprices, or
     represents a cash transaction between willing parties within six months or
     less of the measurement date.
 
     Securities: The fair value of the Company's securities is based on the
     quoted market prices at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994. The carrying
     amount and fair value of the Company's securities at March 31, 1995 was
     $812,752,000 and $804,898,000, respectively. The carrying amount and fair
     value of the Company's securities at December 31, 1994 was $782,050,000 and
     $764,117,000, respectively.

     Loans: The fair value of the Company's loans have been estimated using two
     methods: 1) as indicated earlier, the carrying amount of short-term loans
     approximate fair value; and 2) for all other loans, discounting of
     projected future cash flows. When using the discounting method, loans are
     gathered by homogeneous groups with similar terms and conditions and
     discounted at a target rate at which similar loans would be made to
     borrowers as of March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994. In addition, when
     computing the estimated fair value for all loans, general reserves for loan
     losses are subtracted from the calculated fair value for consideration of
     credit issues. At March 31, 1995, the carrying amount and fair value of the
     Company's loans was $4,030,442,000 and $4,117,382,000, respectively. The
     carrying amount of loans for March 31, 1995 consists of gross loans of
     $4,139,208,000 less allowance for loan losses of $59,052,000 less net
     leases of $49,714,000. The fair value of loans for March 31, 1995 consists

                                   FORM 10-Q

     of gross loans of $4,226,148,000 less allowance for loan losses and net
     leases. At December 31, 1994, the carrying amount and fair value of the
     Company's loans was $3,840,566,000 and $3,976,700,000, respectively. The
     carrying amount of loans for 1994 consists of gross loans of $3,944,807,000
     less allowance for loan losses of $55,265,000 less net leases of
     $48,976,000. The fair value of loans for 1994 consists of gross loans of
     $4,080,941,000 less allowance for loan losses and net leases.

     Deposits: The methodologies used to estimate the fair value of deposits
     are similar to the two methods used to fair value loans. Deposits are
     gathered in homogeneous groups and the future cash flows of these groups
     are discounted using current market rates offered for similar products at
     March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994. The carrying amount and fair value of
     the Company's deposits at March 31, 1995 was $4,727,255,000 and
     $4,724,263,000, respectively. The carrying amount and fair value of the
     Company's deposits at December 31, 1994 was $4,383,090,000 and
     $4,416,880,000, respectively.

     Long-term Debt: The fair value of long-term debt and other interest-
     bearing obligations is estimated by discounting future cash flows using
     current market rates for similar debt instruments. The carrying amount and
     fair value of long-term debt and other interest-bearing obligations at
     March 31, 1995 was $97,902,000 and $98,482,000, respectively. The carrying
     amount and fair value of long-term debt and other interest-bearing
     obligations at December 31, 1994 was $73,446,000 and $74,123,000,
     respectively.

     Other Financial Instruments: All other financial instruments of a material
     nature fall into the definition of short-term and fair value is estimated
     as the carrying amount. The carrying amount and fair value at March 31,
     1995 of cash and due from banks was $334,139,000, federal funds sold and
     other short-term investments was $126,012,000, and other receivables and
     interest earned not collected was $45,863,000, which is included in other
     assets. The carrying amount and fair value at December 31, 1994 of cash and
     due from banks was $267,625,000, federal funds sold and other short-term
     investments was $98,980,000, and other receivables and interest earned not
     collected was $51,096,000, which is included in other assets.

     The carrying amount and fair value at March 31, 1995 was $50,396,000 of
     federal funds purchased and U.S. Treasury notes, commercial paper and
     commercial paper based borrowings of $288,784,000, and accounts payable and
     accrued interest payable of $34,133,000, which is included in other
     liabilities. The carrying amount and fair value at December 31, 1994 was
     $99,363,000 of federal funds purchased and U.S. Treasury notes, commercial
     paper and commercial paper based borrowings of $302,253,000, and accounts
     payable and accrued interest payable of $33,033,000, which is included in
     other liabilities.

     Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments: All material amounts of off-
     balance sheet items are characterized as short-term instruments because of
     the conditions of the contract and repricing ability. The carrying value of
     all off-balance sheet instruments approximates the fair value. At March 31,
     1995 and December 31, 1994, the Company had unused secured loan commitments
     of $928 million and $869 million, respectively; standby letters of credit
     of $42 million and $43 million, respectively; and unused consumer credit
     card lines of $8,100 million and $7,400 million, respectively.

     The information presented herein is based on pertinent information
     available to management as of March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994.
     Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly
     affect the estimated fair value amounts, such amounts have not been
     comprehensively revalued since that time, and the current estimated fair
     value of these financial instruments may have changed significantly since
     that point in time.

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

The Company consists of the parent company, which is a Nebraska-based interstate
bank holding company, and its consolidated subsidiaries. Its principal assets
include First National Bank of Omaha; First National Bank and Trust Company of
Columbus; First National Bank, North Platte; Platte Valley State Bank & Trust
Company, Kearney; Fremont National Bank & Trust Company; First National Bank,
Norfolk; First National Bank of Kansas, Overland Park, Kansas; First National of
Colorado, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiaries First National Bank, Fort
Collins, Colorado and Union Colony Bank, Greeley, Colorado; and First National
Bank South Dakota, Yankton, South Dakota. The Company also has nonbanking
subsidiaries, which in the aggregate are not material.

The Company is governed by various regulatory agencies. Bank holding companies
and their nonbanking subsidiaries are regulated by the Federal Reserve Board.
National banks are primarily regulated by the Office of the Comptroller of the
Currency (OCC). All federally-insured banks are also regulated by the FDIC. The
Company's banking subsidiaries include eight national banks and two state-
chartered banks, all of which are insured by the FDIC. The state-chartered banks
are also regulated by state banking authorities.

The Bank conducts a significant consumer credit card service under license
arrangements with VISA USA and MasterCard International, Inc. First National
Bank of Omaha was one of the originators of the bank credit card industry and as
a result has 40 years experience in this business. The Bank's credit card
customers are located throughout the United States, but primarily in the
Midwest. At December 31, 1994, the Bank ranked among the top card issuing
entities based on number of credit cards issued. Growth in volume and stable
credit card loan loss ratios have proved profitable for the Company. Gross
revenues associated with credit card loans have declined slightly from 59% of
total gross revenues in 1992 to 56% in 1994. There is significant competition in
the credit card industry from other financial institutions and from nonbanking
entities. With the increased competition, there is downward pressure on rates
and fees charged to cardholders. All these factors work to put pressure on the
profitability of the credit card business.

The Company provides various substantial third-party processing services
including automated clearinghouse transactions, merchant credit card processing,
and check processing. The Company has increased fee income through the
significant expansion of these services. With the increased volumes processed,
the Company is subjected to greater pricing and technology risks. The Company
continues to closely monitor the risks and competitive conditions.

                                   FORM 10-Q

CAPITAL RESOURCES:

The Company and its banking subsidiaries are required to maintain minimum
capital in accordance with federal regulations. Generally, these regulations
are: 1) 3% for Tier I capital to total assets (as defined); 2) 4% for Tier I
capital to risk-adjusted assets; and 3) 8% for Total capital (as defined) to
risk-adjusted assets. The stated capital of the Company and its banking
subsidiaries is subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about
components, risk weightings, and other factors. The Company and its banking
subsidiaries exceeded these minimum regulatory capital requirements at December
31, 1994.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA)
imposed a significant amount of new regulation on the banking industry. A
substantial part of FDICIA's regulatory restrictions is focused on the capital
level of financial institutions and the relative risk of their assets and
liabilities. Most of the regulatory mandates of FDICIA now have been implemented
by the federal banking agencies through final regulations. These include
regulations relating to corrective regulatory action, standards of safety and
soundness and various deposit insurance reforms.

Under federal banking laws and regulations, the Company's banking subsidiaries
are reviewed pursuant to a supervisory framework for prompt corrective action.
This framework consists of five categories that are defined by different levels
of capital. For the top-rated well-capitalized category, an institution must
meet capital ratios of 5.0% for Tier I capital to total assets (as defined);
6.0% for Tier I capital to risk-adjusted assets; and 10.0% for Total capital to
risk-adjusted assets. At March 31, 1995, First National Bank of Omaha and all
other banking subsidiaries of the Company exceeded these minimum requirements
for the top-rated well-capitalized category established by the supervisory
agencies.

At periodic intervals, the banking regulators routinely examine the financial
statements of the Company and its subsidiaries as part of their legally
prescribed oversight of the banking industry. Based on these examinations, the
regulators can direct the financial statements to be adjusted in accordance with
their findings. The regulators have not proposed material adjustments to the
financial statements this year nor in prior years.

LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST MARGIN MANAGEMENT:

The Company and its banking subsidiaries closely manage liquidity and interest
margins.

Liquidity is the management of funding demands for loan growth and deposit
withdrawals balanced against funds generated by loan repayments, the maturity of
investment securities and core deposit growth. The Company believes liquidity is
found on both sides of the balance sheet.

Liquidity is evaluated by the Company using three distinct processes: addressing
daily liquidity needs; the use of non-core deposits; and expected loan demands
against liquidity. The Company evaluates its interest margin in conjunction with
liquidity. The Company does not use financial instruments such as hedges, swaps,
futures, or other derivative products. Computer-based models are utilized to
forecast how potential interest rate scenarios and balance sheet strategies will
interact with the Company's liquidity and interest margin requirements.

The Company maintains commercial paper throughout the year. At March 31, 1995,
the Company had facilities to access the commercial paper market up to a maximum
of $340,000,000, of which $288,784,000 was outstanding and maturing in 45 days.
Commercial paper is supported by loan commitments from various financial
institutions, and is distributed on a national basis with proceeds used to
finance consumer receivables.

The Company closely monitors the repricing of assets and liabilities to obtain
an acceptable interest spread in periods of rising or falling rates. Through the
use of product selection and product pricing the Company manages asset and
liability volumes and interest spreads.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Interest Income and Interest Expense:

The 34.85% increase in total interest income between the quarters ended March
31, 1994 and March 31, 1995, is the result of a 29.93% increase in earning
assets.

The first quarter interest expense has increased 63.78% from 1994 to 1995 due to
a increase in paying liabilities volume and increase in market rates. Interest-
bearing deposit volume increased by 30.01% and long-term debt volume increased
by 78.68%.

Provision for loan losses:

The Company evaluates its allowance for loan losses on a monthly basis.
Management's assessment of loan losses allowance adequacy is based upon a review
of numerous items including: collateral values, delinquencies, non-accruals, and
payment histories.

Loan loss provision increased 19.61% between first quarter 1994 and first
quarter 1995. The effect of a 29.62% increase in gross loan volume was offset by
an improvement in credit quality for bankcard and non-bankcard loans for the
period of March 31, 1994 to March 31, 1995.

Other Operating Income:

Total other operating income rose 13.97% above the first quarter of 1994. Due to
increased volumes of processed items for new and existing customers, processing
services income rose 29.70%. Income related to other miscellaneous income also
grew as a result of the general growth of the company.

Other Operating Expense:

Loan services purchased expenses increased by 36.28% due to processing
additional loan volumes, and the promotion and acquisition of new loan
relationships. Expenses related to salaries, purchased processing, occupancy,
communications, supplies, equipment rentals, depreciation and maintenance,
federal deposit insurance, and other miscellaneous expense grew as a result of
the general growth of the company.

Accounting:

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 114 (SFAS114), "Accounting by
Creditors for Impairment of a Loan", and Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 118 (SFAS118), are effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1994. These Statements require that qualifying impaired loans be
measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at
either the loan's effective interest rate, the loan's observable market price,
or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. The
Company adopted these Statements on January 1, 1995 with no material impact to
its consolidated financial statements.
