NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
March 31, 1996

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for
a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three-month
period ended March 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1996.  For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Corporation's annual report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1995.

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and 
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

PER SHARE AMOUNTS

     Per share amounts are adjusted for common stock dividends, including the
5% stock dividend approved on April 24, 1996.

     Primary earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income,
adjusted for preferred stock dividends declared, by the sum of the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding and the number of shares
of common stock which would be issued assuming the exercise of stock options
during each period.

     Fully diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net
income, adjusted for minority interest, by the weighted average number of
shares of common stock outstanding, assuming the conversion of outstanding
convertible preferred stock from the beginning of the year or date of issuance
and the exercise of stock options.

     Cash dividends per common share are based on the actual cash dividends
declared adjusted for stock dividends.  Book value per common share is based
on shares outstanding at each period end adjusted retroactively for stock
dividends.

CASH FLOW INFORMATION

     Following is a summary of supplemental cash flow information (in
thousands):

     Three months ended March 31                             1996       1995

       Income taxes                                                        560

MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

     On February 2, 1996, the Corporation signed a definitive merger agreement
with Southwest Banks, Inc. (Southwest), a bank holding company headquartered in
Naples, Florida with assets of approximately $386 million.  The merger
agreement calls for an exchange of .819 shares of F.N.B. Corporation common
stock for each share of Southwest common stock after giving effect to the 5%
stock dividend announced on April 24, 1996.

                                       -5-

<PAGE>
The Corporation has reserved 3,276,700 shares to be issued in conjunction with
the merger.

     In connection with the merger agreement, Southwest granted the Corporation
an option to purchase, under certain circumstances, up to 727,163 shares of
Southwest common stock at a price of $15.00 per share.  The exchange ratio,
number of shares under option and the price of the options are all subject to
possible adjustment.  The transaction will be accounted for as a pooling of
interests, and is expected to close in early 1997, subject to approval by
certain regulatory authorities and Southwest's shareholders.

     In December 1995, two of the Corporation's subsidiaries, First National
Bank of Pennsylvania (First National) and Dollar Savings Association, agreed
to merge, with First National being the survivor.  The relevant applications
with federal and state regulatory authorities have been approved and the merger
is expected to be consummated by May 14, 1996.

EFFECT OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

     The following Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (FAS)  became
effective for the Corporation in 1996.

     FAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of," requires impairment losses to be recorded
on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are
present.  The undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets
are less than the assets' carrying amount.  Adoption of this Statement did not
have a material effect on the Corporation's financial position or results of
operations.

     FAS No. 122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights," an amendment of
FAS No. 65, allows enterprises engaging in mortgage banking activities to 
recognize as separate assets rights to service mortgage loans originated for
sale.  Additionally, the enterprise must periodically assess its capitalized
mortgage servicing rights for impairment based on the fair value of those
rights.  Adoption of this Statement did not have a material effect on the
Corporation's financial position or results of operations, as the Corporation
does not significantly engage in the sale of mortgage loans.

PART I

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

Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity

     The Corporation monitors its liquidity position on an ongoing basis to
assure that it is able to meet the need for funds at all times.  Given the
monetary nature of its assets and liabilities and the level of liquidity
provided by its available for sale securities portfolio, the Corporation
generally has sufficient sources of funds available as needed to meet its
routine, operational cash needs.

     In addition to normal liquidity provided from operations, the Corporation
has external sources of funds available should it desire to use them.  These
include approved lines of credit with several major domestic banks, of which
$22.0 million was unused at March 31, 1996.  To further meet its liquidity
needs, the Corporation also has access to the Federal Home Loan Bank and the
Federal Reserve Bank, as well as other uncommitted funding sources.

     Interest rate sensitivity measures the impact that future changes in
interest rates will have on net interest income.  The cumulative gap reflects
the net position of assets and liabilities repricing in specified time periods.
The gap is one measurement of risk inherent in a balance sheet as it relates to
changes in interest rates and their effect on net interest income.  

                                    -6-

<PAGE>
     The gap analysis which follows is based on a combination of asset and
liability amortizations, maturities and repricing opportunities.  Non-maturity
deposit balances have been allocated to various repricing intervals to more
accurately depict their true behavior and characteristics.  This allocation
was done in accordance with FDIC guidance.  Based on the cumulative one year
gap in this table and assuming no repositioning or modifications to
asset/liability composition, a rise in interest rates over the next year would
have a slight negative impact on net interest income. 

     Gap analyses alone do not accurately measure the magnitude of changes in
net interest income since changes in interest rates do not affect all
categories of assets and liabilities equally or simultaneously.  Recognizing
that traditional gap analyses do not measure dynamically the exposure to
interest rate changes, the Corporation also relies on computer simulation
modeling to measure the effect of upward and downward interest rate changes on
net interest income.  Simulation is currently in use at all of the
Corporation's banking affiliates.  
 
     Through the review of gap analyses and simulation modeling, management
continually monitors the Corporation's exposure to changing interest rates. 
Management attempts to mitigate repricing mismatches through asset and
liability pricing and through matched maturity funding.

     Following is the gap analysis as of March 31, 1996 (in thousands):

                             Within     4-12      1-5       Over

Capital Resources

     The assessment of capital adequacy depends on a number of factors such as
asset quality, liquidity, earnings performance and changing competitive
conditions and economic forces.  The Corporation maintains a strong capital
base to support its growth and expansion activities, to provide stability to
current operations and to promote public confidence.

                                      -7-

<PAGE>
     The capital management function is a continuous process.  Central to this
process is internal equity generation accomplished mainly through earnings
retention.  Since December 31, 1995, total retained earnings has increased
$3.4 million as a result of earnings retention.  For the three months ended
March 31, 1996, the return on average equity was 13.46%.  Total cash dividends
declared represented 32.63% of net income.  Book value per share was $15.71 at
March 31, 1996, compared to $15.40 at December 31, 1995.

     The Corporation's capital position continues to exceed regulatory
minimums.  The primary indicators relied on by the Federal Reserve Board and
other regulators in measuring strength of capital position are the Core
Capital, Total Risk-Based Capital and Leverage ratios.  Following is
a table summarizing these ratios and the related regulatory minimums as of
March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively (in thousands):

                                          MARCH 31,   DECEMBER 31,  REGULATORY
                                            1996          1995       MINIMUMS 
                                        ------------  ------------  ----------
Capital Ratios:
  Core Capital                             11.86%        11.74%        4.00%
  Total Risk-Based Capital                 13.96         13.86         8.00
  Leverage                                  8.21          8.16         5.00

     Core Capital consists of common and qualifying preferred stockholders'
equity less non-qualifying intangibles and Total Risk-Based Capital consists
of Core Capital, qualifying subordinated debt and a portion of the allowance
for loan losses.  Both are calculated with reference to risk-weighted assets
consisting of both on- and off- balance sheet risks.  The Leverage ratio
consists of Core Capital divided by quarterly average assets less non-
qualifying intangibles.

NON-PERFORMING ASSETS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

     Non-performing assets include non-performing loans and other real estate
owned.  Non-performing loans include non-accrual loans and restructured loans.
Non-accrual loans represent loans on which interest accruals have been
discontinued.  Generally, it is the Corporation's policy to discontinue
interest accruals when principal or interest is due and has remained unpaid for
90 days or more unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of
collection.  When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, unpaid interest
credited to income in the current year is reversed and unpaid interest accrued
in prior years is charged against the allowance for loan losses.  Interest
received on non-accrual loans is either applied against principal or reported
as interest income, according to management's judgment as to the collectibility
of principal.  Loans which reach non-accrual status may not be restored to
accrual status until all delinquent principal and interest has been paid, or
the loan becomes both secured and in the process of collection.  Restructured
loans are loans in which the borrower has been granted a concession
on the interest rate or the original repayment terms due to financial distress.

     Non-accrual loans totaled $7.1 million at March 31, 1996, representing an
increase of $1.5 million from $5.6 million at December 31, 1995.  The ratio of
non-accrual loans to total loans increased from .46% at December 31, 1995 to
 .57% at March 31, 1996.  This increase was offset by a decrease of $1.3 million
in restructured loans.

     Non-performing loans are closely monitored on an ongoing basis as part of
the Corporation's loan review process.  The potential risk of loss on these
loans is evaluated by comparing the loan balance to the present value of
projected future cash flows or the value of any underlying collateral,
recognizing losses where appropriate.  

     Management's analysis of the allowance for loan losses includes the
evaluation of the loan portfolio based on internally generated loan review
reports and the historical loss experience of the remaining balances of the
various homogeneous loan pools which comprise the loan portfolio.  Specific
factors which are evaluated include the previous loan loss experience with the
customer, the status of past due interest and principal payments on the loan,
the collateral position of the loan, the quality of financial information
supplied by the borrower and the general financial condition of the borrower. 
Historical loss experience on the remaining portfolio segments is considered
in conjunction with current status of economic conditions, loan loss trends,
delinquency and  non-accrual trends, credit administration, concentrations of
credit and off-balance sheet risk.

$4.0 million  for the first quarter of 1995.  Primary earnings per share for
those periods were $.51 and $.42, respectively, and $.49 and $.40 on a fully
diluted basis.  Highlights for the first quarter of 1996 include:

     *     A 13.46% return on average equity and a 1.14% return on 
           average assets.

     *     A net interest margin on a fully taxable equivalent basis 
           of 5.03%.

     *     The provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 
           1996 at $1.4 million was 11.23% lower than the provision 
           recorded for the first quarter of 1995.

     Net interest income, the Corporation's primary source of earnings, is the
amount by which interest and fees generated by interest earning assets,
primarily loans and securities, exceed interest expense on deposits and
borrowed funds.  During the first three months of 1996, net interest income,
on a fully taxable equivalent basis, totaled $20.4 million, representing a
3.87% increase over the first three months of 1995.  Net interest income as a
percentage of average earning assets (commonly referred to as the margin)
remained constant at 5.03% at March 31, 1996 compared to 5.04% at March 31,
1995.

     Net interest income can be analyzed in terms of the impact of changing
volumes of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.  The
following table sets forth certain information regarding changes in net
interest income attributable to changes in the volumes of interest earning
assets and interest bearing liabilities and changes in the rates for the three
months ending March 31, 1996 as compared to the three months ending March 31,

     The amount of change not solely due to rate or volume changes was
allocated between the change due to rate and the change due to volume based on
the absolute relative size of the rate and volume changes.

     Total interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis increased $2.1
million or 6.30% for the first three months of 1996, compared to the first
three months of 1995.  Interest income on loans increased 5.13%
from $28.0 million for the first three months of 1995 to $29.4 million for the
first three months of 1996, a result of greater loan demand.  Average loans
increased 2.9% over these same periods.  Interest on federal funds sold
increased 116.0% to $406,000 for the first three months of 1996 compared to the
first three months of 1995.  This increase was the result of a higher volume of
federal funds being sold.

    Total interest expense increased $1.3 million or 9.80% for the three
months ended March 31, 1996, compared to the three months ended March 31,
1995.  Interest expense on deposits increased 11.37% to $13.3 million over
these periods, due to an increase of 20.39% in interest expense on time
deposits.  This was primarily the result of increased market rates of interest
and the continuing shift in the deposit mix from transaction and savings
accounts into higher paying certificate accounts.

     The provision for loan losses totaled $1.4 million for the first three
months of 1996, representing a decrease of 11.23% from the first three months
of 1995, a direct result of the continuing improvement in asset quality at the
Corporation.  The provision for loan losses charged to operations is a direct
result of management's analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan
losses which takes into consideration all factors relevant to the 
collectibility of the existing portfolio.

     Total non-interest income increased 7.83% during the first three months of
1996, compared to the same period of 1995.  This increase was attributable to
slight increases in insurance commissions and fees and gains on sale of
securities, offset by a slight decrease in service charges.

     Total non-interest expenses increased slightly during the first three
months of 1996, compared to the first three months of 1995.  Salaries
and employee benefits accounted for the majority of this increase.

       Election may elect to delay for six months his or her receipt of all or
       a portion of the Initial Period Fees payable to the Director for the

       executing and delivering to the Company, at the time the Share Election
       is made, a Notice of Share Election For Initial Period Fees in the form
       of Exhibit B hereto.  Any Initial Period Fees which are the subject of

          (b)   A Director who has executed and delivered a Notice of Share
       Election For Initial Period Fees pursuant to paragraph (a) above shall
       be deemed to have irrevocably elected to receive  such Initial Period
       Fees in Shares rather than in cash.  Such election to receive Initial
       Period Fees in Shares rather than cash shall become effective on the
       date six (6) months after the Company's receipt of the Director's Notice
       of Share Election For Initial Period Fees. Such Director shall be issued
       on the effective date of such election, in lieu of the cash amount
       credited to his or her memorandum account pursuant to paragraph (a)
       above, a number of Shares as shall be determined in accordance with
       Section 7(a) below (subject to any Share Deferral Election made by such
       Director pursuant to Section 6 below). 

6.   DEFERRAL OF RECEIPT OF SHARES OR INITIAL PERIOD FEES

     Payment of Shares granted under the Plan pursuant to Section 4 or Section 5
above may be deferred by election of a Director in accordance with the 
provisions of this Section 6.  

     (a)   The Director may elect, by executing and delivering to the Company a 
Notice of Election to Defer Annual Fees in the form of Exhibit C hereto, on or 
before December 31st of any year to defer receipt of all (but not less than all)
of his or her annual fees payable under the Plan in Shares pursuant to Section 4
or Section 5 above for the period beginning on January 1 of the following 
calendar year and continuing until the Company receives written notice from 
the Director terminating such deferral (a "Share Deferral Election"); provided,
however, that (i) any Share Deferral Election for fees payable pursuant to 
Section 4 or Section 5 above in respect of calendar year 1996 must be made on 
or before the date thirty days after the date on which the Plan is approved by 
the shareholders of the Company and (ii) the Director may make a Share Deferral
Election for the calendar year in which he or she is first elected to the Board
of Directors at any time on or before the date thirty days after the date on 
which he or she is first elected to the Board of Directors.  Such deferred fees
will be maintained and held in a separate memorandum account.  Such fees will 
be received in Shares as provided below.

     (b)   The Shares to be received by a Director who has made a Share Deferral
Election with respect to such Shares shall be issued to the Director in annual 
installments as nearly equal in number as possible over a ten-year period 
(or such longer or shorter period as the Committee may determine) beginning 
with the first day of the first calendar year immediately following the year 
in which the Director ceases to be a director.  The Director shall not be 
deemed to be the legal or beneficial owner of any Shares until such Shares are 
distributed by the Company to the Director except that all cash and stock 
dividends otherwise payable on such Shares shall be credited to the Director's 
memorandum account.

     (c)   If the Director has previously deferred cash fees pursuant to an 
Agreement to Defer Annual Fees with the Company (a "Prior Agreement"), the 
Director also may elect to receive all or a percentage of the cash fees which 
were deferred by the Director under such Prior Agreement prior to the effective
date of his or her initial Share Deferral Election under this Section 6 and 
which are currently held in a memorandum account for the Director, together 
with accumulated interest thereon, in Shares rather than in cash.  Such 
election may be made by checking the appropriate box on the Election form 
attached hereto as Exhibit C at the time the Director first makes a Share 
Deferral Election under this Section 6, which election shall be irrevocable 
(if the Director is a Section 16 Person) and shall become effective on the date
 on which such Director's initial Share Election becomes effective.  The number
 of Shares as to which such election is made will be equal to the amount of 
cash fees (and accumulated interest) as to which such election is made divided 
by the average of the "bid" and "ask" prices of the Common Stock on the 
over-the-counter market on the date on which such Election becomes effective 
(or, if such day is not a trading day, on the first trading day immediately 
following such date).  If such election is made by the Director, interest on 
such deferred fees under such Director's Prior Agreement shall cease to 
accumulate from and after the effective date of the Director's election, and 
the Shares to which the Director will be entitled will be deferred and 
distributed in accordance with paragraph (b) above, except that if such 
election becomes effective during the period during which such deferred fees 
are payable in accordance with the Director's Prior Agreement, the Director 
shall receive such Shares over the remainder of such original deferral period.

     (d)   In the event the Director ceases to be a director of the Company and
becomes a proprietor, officer, partner, employee, or otherwise becomes 
affiliated with any business that is in competition with the Company, the 
entire balance of his or her deferred fees may, if directed by the Board of 
Directors, in its sole discretion, be issued immediately to the Director.

     (e)   Upon the death of the Director prior to the expiration of the period
during which the deferred amounts are payable, the balance of the shares 
issuable to the Director shall be issuable to his or her estate or other 
beneficiary designated by the Director in writing to the Company in full on the
first day of the calendar year following the year in which he dies.

     (f)   Except as otherwise provided in Section 5 with respect to Initial 
Period Fees and in any Prior Agreement to which a Director is a party with 
respect to cash fees previously deferred by such Director, no Director shall 
be entitled after the effective date of the Plan to defer receipt of 
compensation for attendance of meetings of the Board of Directors or any 
Committee of the Board of Directors unless and to the extent such Director has 
made a Share Election as to such fees.  

7.   OTHER PROVISIONS RELATING TO SHARES

     (a)   The Shares issued under the Plan may be treasury shares or 
newly-issued shares or may be shares purchased by the Company on the open 
market for a purchase price equal to the amount of the compensation which the 
Director has elected to receive in Shares (or, in the case of Shares issuable 
in respect of Initial Period Fees pursuant to Section 5 and Shares the receipt 
of which has been deferred pursuant to Section 6, the amount credited to the 
Director in his or her memorandum account at the time such Shares are purchased)
and delivered to any Director.  In cases where authorized but unissued or 
treasury Shares are used, the Common Stock shall be valued at the average of 
the "bid" and "ask" prices of the Common Stock in the over-the-counter market 
on the business day next preceding the date of the Board or Committee meeting 
or such other date on which such Shares shall become issuable to the Director 
under the Plan (or, if the Common Stock ceases to trade in the over-the-counter
market and is traded on another exchange or on the Nasdaq National Market, by 
such other reasonable method or formula as may be determined by the Committee 
in its discretion).  In cases where the Company purchases the Shares, it shall 
do so as of a date reasonably close to the date of the Board or Committee 
meeting.  

     (b)   None of the Shares issued under the Plan shall be subject to 
forfeiture upon the termination of a Director's service prior to completion of 
his or her term.

     (c)   The obligation of the Company to deliver Shares to any Director who 
has elected to receive Shares pursuant to the Plan shall be subject to all 
applicable laws, rules and regulations, and to such approvals by governmental 
agencies as may be deemed necessary or appropriate by the Company, including, 
among others, such steps as counsel for the Company shall deem necessary or 
appropriate to comply with requirements of relevant securities laws.  Such 
obligation shall also be subject to the condition that any Shares reserved for 
issuance under the Plan shall have been duly listed on any national securities 
exchange or automated quotation system (including Nasdaq) which then 
constitutes the principal trading market for the Shares.  
     (d)   The Company, in its sole discretion, may register any Shares to be 
issued pursuant to the Plan under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  In 
the event the Company elects not to register such Shares, each Director agrees 
to execute and deliver to the Company a certificate containing such 
representations as to his or her investment intent and other matters as the 
Company may reasonably require.

8.   ENROLLMENT IN DRP

     All Shares issued to each Director pursuant to the Plan shall, within five
business days following the date of issuance to the Director (but in any event 
before the next record date for payment of dividends on the Common Stock), be 
enrolled in the Director's name in the DRP.  The Director shall be entitled to 
exercise all rights to such Shares, including the right to withdraw such Shares
from the DRP, in accordance with the terms of the DRP.

9.   MAXIMUM SHARES

     The maximum number of Shares that may be issued under the Plan during any 
calendar year may not exceed one percent (1%) of the highest number of the 
Corporation's issued and outstanding common stock calculated on a fully diluted
basis, subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 10 below.

10.  ADJUSTMENTS

     The number and kind of Shares which may be issued under the Plan shall be 
automatically adjusted to prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of 
Directors in the event of any changes in the number or kind of outstanding 
Shares resulting from a merger, recapitalization, stock exchange, stock split, 
stock dividend, other extraordinary dividend or distribution, corporate 
division or other change in the Company's corporate or capital structure.

11.  AMENDMENT, SUSPENSION AND DISCONTINUANCE

     The Board of Directors may at any time amend, suspend or discontinue the 
Plan, provided that, if shareholder approval of such action is necessary in 
order to ensure compliance with Rule 16b-3, such action shall be subject to 
approval by the holders of the Shares by the vote and in the manner required by
Rule 16b-3. 

12.  COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 16b-3

     The Company intends that the Plan and all transactions hereunder meet all 
of the requirements of Rule 16b-3 in order that the receipt of Shares by any 
Director hereunder be exempt from the provisions of Section 16(b) of the 
Exchange Act, and that any Director who elects to receive Shares under the Plan
shall not, as a result thereof, lose his or her status as a "disinterested 
person" as defined in Rule 16b-3.  Accordingly, if any provision of the Plan 
does not meet a requirement of Rule 16b-3 as then applicable to any such 
transaction, or would cause a Director who receives any Shares hereunder not to
be a "disinterested person," such provision shall be construed or deemed 
amended to the extent necessary to meet such requirement and to preserve such 
status.

13.  GOVERNING LAW

     The Plan shall be applied and construed in accordance with and governed 
by the law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and applicable Federal law.
