NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion
of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim
periods. The Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements appearing in
Huntington's 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders should be read in conjunction
with these interim financial statements.

B. On January 1, 1996, Huntington adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board
Statement No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of" (FAS 121). The Statement prescribes the
accounting for the impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill related to those
assets. The new rules specify when assets should be reviewed for impairment, how
to determine whether an asset or group of assets is impaired, how to measure an
impairment loss, and what financial statement disclosures are necessary. Also
prescribed is the accounting for long-lived assets and identifiable intangibles
that a company plans to dispose of, other than those that are part of a
discontinued operation. Any impairment of a long-lived asset resulting from
management's review is to be recognized as a component of non-interest expense.
The adoption of FAS 121 did not have a material effect on Huntington's
consolidated financial statements.

C. Huntington acquired Peoples Bank of Lakeland (Lakeland), a $551 million
commercial bank headquartered in Lakeland, Florida, on January 23, 1996.
Huntington paid $46.2 million in cash and issued approximately 4.7 million
shares of common stock in exchange for all the common stock of Lakeland. The
transaction was accounted for as a purchase; accordingly, the results of
Lakeland have been included in the consolidated financial statements from the
date of acquisition.

D. Per common share amounts have been calculated based on the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding in each period, adjusted for the five
percent stock dividend issued July 31, 1995. The dilutive effects of unexercised
stock options and convertible debentures were not significant for any period
presented.

E. Certain amounts in the prior year's financial statements have been
reclassified to conform with the 1996 presentation. These reclassifications had
no effect on net income.

                                                                               6

Management's Discussion and Analysis
- ------------------------------------

OVERVIEW

         Huntington reported net income of $62.8 million, or $.47 per share, for
the first quarter of 1996 compared with $54.9 million, or $.39 per share, for
the same period last year. Though Huntington anticipates earnings per share for
all of 1996 to exceed the previous year, the 20.5% increase in the first quarter
is higher than what is expected for the entire year due to net income in the
second half of 1995 being much stronger than last year's first six months.
Returns on average assets and average equity were 1.26% and 16.02%,
respectively, in the most recent quarter versus 1.23% and 15.08% in the first
three months of 1995.

         Total assets were $20.1 billion at March 31, 1996, relatively flat with
year end but up 9.3% from one year ago. In terms of asset composition, the
recent quarter end balance sheet reflects a large decrease in temporary
investments from December 31, 1995, that was substantially offset by increases
in securities and loans arising from the acquisition of Peoples Bank of
Lakeland, Florida (Lakeland) in January 1996. The growth in investments from the
first quarter of 1995 was the result of programs directed by Huntington's
Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO) in the second half of last year to
neutralize the interest rate risk exposure arising from customer-driven business
sectors. Huntington also experienced solid loan growth over the past twelve
months. Excluding the effects of $340 million of principally fixed-rate
residential mortgage loans that were sold in the recent two quarters, average
total loans increased 8.2%.

         Total deposits grew 2.9% from year-end 1995, in large part because of
the Lakeland acquisition, and 6.7% from the same time one year ago. Huntington's
short-term and long-term borrowings decreased during the quarter just ended as a
result of the reduced temporary

                                        9

investments referred to above. Borrowings have increased from the end of the
first quarter of last year because of bank notes issued by Huntington and other
funds obtained in the wholesale market to support the higher asset base.

         Huntington issued 4.7 million common shares and paid cash of $46.2
million in exchange for all of Lakeland's common shares outstanding. As the
business combination was recorded under the purchase method of accounting, the
results of Lakeland have been included in the consolidated financial statements
from the date of acquisition. The $551 million of assets arising from the
Lakeland transaction brings Huntington's total assets in Central and West Coast
Florida to $1.2 billion.

         Shareholders' equity was flat with both December 31 and March 31, 1995.
Huntington continues to maintain an appropriate balance between capital adequacy
and returns to shareholders. A primary tool used by management in this regard
has been the common stock repurchase program. At the most recent quarter-end,
Huntington's regulatory capital ratios, including those of its bank
subsidiaries, exceeded the levels established for well-capitalized institutions.
(See "Capital" section for further information).

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET INTEREST INCOME

         Huntington reported net interest income of $184.7 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1996, up from $176.2 million in the same period of 1995.
The increase was principally attributable to growth in earning assets of 10.2%.
The net interest margin was 4.03% during the recent quarter, 5 basis points
higher than the immediately preceding quarter but 23 basis points less than the
first three months of 1995. The lower margin from one year ago was 


                                       10

<PAGE>   11

the result of increased deposit rates (partially offset by reduced wholesale
funding rates), a reduced yield on the investment securities portfolio, and a
change in the mix of earning assets.

         For the quarter just ended, interest rate swaps and other off-balance
sheet financial instruments used for asset/liability management purposes reduced
interest income by $9.1 million and increased interest expense by $6.0 million.
These products decreased interest income by $4.5 million and increased interest
expense by $7.0 million in the same period one year ago. Included in the
preceding amounts is amortization of deferred gains and losses from terminated
contracts, that decreased net interest income by $10.2 million in 1996 and $3.9
million in 1995. Expressed in terms of the margin, the effect of the off-balance
sheet portfolio was a reduction of 33 basis points and 28 basis points for the
respective quarters ended March 31, of which 21 basis points and 10 basis points
related to amortization of net losses from closed positions. A swap strategy
used by Huntington to create synthetic fixed rate wholesale liabilities, while
lowering funding costs from what would have resulted from a comparable cash
instrument, resulted in the majority of the remaining margin reduction
attributable to the off-balance sheet portfolio. 

NON-INTEREST INCOME

         Non-interest income, excluding securities transactions, was $61.1 
million for the first three months of 1996 compared with $57.8 million during
the same period one year ago. The 5.7% increase was driven by higher fee income
from retail investment sales, credit cards, trust, and electronic banking
services.

         Mortgage banking income was $8.9 million in the first quarter of 1996
versus $9.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1995. Net servicing fees
were down $1.2 million due to a reduction in the average volume of loans
serviced for others by Huntington as a result of large servicing sales that
occurred in 1995. The decrease in servicing income was partially offset by



                                       11

<PAGE>   12

more origination fees, as mortgage loan production increased from $163 million
in the first three months of 1995 to $355 million in the quarter just ended.
Gains from servicing sales were $4.2 million lower quarter-to-quarter, as
Huntington sold no servicing rights in 1996, compared with $350 million sold in
the same period last year. Substantially mitigating the effect of the reduced
gains from servicing sales were gains from the sale of certain portfolio loans
and the positive impact of a new accounting standard adopted by Huntington in
third quarter 1995 related to the capitalization of mortgage servicing rights.
At the recent quarter end, the mortgage loan servicing portfolio (including
loans serviced by Huntington on its own behalf) totaled $5.7 billion.

         Huntington realized income from securities transactions of $7.1 
million in the recent quarter. These gains resulted principally from
collateralized mortgage obligations and mortgage backed securities that were
sold to reduce price and/or prepayment risk.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

         Non-interest expense in the first three months of 1996 was $143.5
million, a slight decline from $144.6 million one year ago. Most major
categories of non-interest expense were flat to down with FDIC insurance showing
the biggest decrease, as Huntington benefited from the reduction in assessment
rates on bank deposits that occurred in the latter part of 1995. This was
largely offset by higher commissions and increased personnel costs related to
corporate-sponsored retirement and benefit programs, as well as certain other
costs following the Lakeland acquisition. Fringe benefit costs are typically
higher early in the year and trend downward in subsequent quarters.

INTEREST RATE RISK  MANAGEMENT

INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT

          Huntington seeks to achieve consistent growth in net interest income
and net income while managing volatility arising from shifts in interest rates.
ALCO oversees risk management, establishing broad policies and specific
operating limits that govern a variety of risks inherent in Huntington's
operations including interest rate, liquidity, price, and market risks. On and
off-balance sheet strategies and tactical programs are reviewed and monitored
regularly by ALCO to ensure consistency with approved risk tolerances.

         Interest rate risk management is a dynamic process, encompassing both
the business flows onto the balance sheet and the changing market and business
environment. Effective management of interest rate risk begins with
appropriately diversified financial instruments and funding sources. To
accomplish its overall balance sheet objectives, Huntington regularly uses a
multiple of markets: money market, bond market, and futures and options market.
In addition, dealers in over-the-counter financial instruments provide
availability of interest rate swaps as needed.

         Measurement and monitoring of interest rate risk is an ongoing process.
A key element in this process is Huntington's estimation of the amount that net
interest income will change over a twelve to twenty-four month period given a
directional shift in interest rates. The income simulation model used by
Huntington captures all assets and liabilities and off-balance sheet financial
instruments, accounting for significant variables which are believed to be
affected by interest rates. These include prepayment speeds on real estate
mortgages and consumer installment credits, cash flow assumptions on other
financial instruments, and changing balance 



                                       13

<PAGE>   14

sheet volume assumptions. The model captures embedded options, e.g. interest
rate caps and floors or call options, and accounts for changes in rate
relationships as various rate indices lead and lag changes in short-term market
rates. While these assumptions are inherently uncertain, management believes
that the model provides an accurate indication of the company's interest rate
risk exposure and is a more relevant depiction of interest rate risks than less
sophisticated measures. Management reporting of this information is regularly
shared with the Board of Directors.

         At March 31, 1996, the results of Huntington's internal interest
sensitivity analysis indicated that net interest income would be relatively
unchanged by a 100 basis points increase or decrease in the federal funds rate
(assuming the change occurs evenly over the next year and that corresponding
changes in other market rates occur as forecasted). Net interest income is
expected to increase 1.5% if rates were to fall 200 basis points. A 200 basis
points rise in rates could result in a decline in net interest income of 2.7%.

         Active interest rate risk management includes the use of various types
of off-balance sheet financial instruments, primarily interest rate swaps. For
example, risk created by different indices on assets and liabilities, by unequal
terms to maturity of assets and liabilities, and by products that are appealing
to customers but incompatible with current risk limits are but a few risks that
can be eliminated or decreased in a cost efficient manner. The swap strategy has
also enabled Huntington to lower the costs of raising wholesale funds.

         Other off-balance sheet financial instruments used to control risk
effectively include financial futures, interest rate caps and floors, options,
and forward rate agreements. These instruments are used regularly in mortgage
banking, securities investing, and wholesale funding. The use of these products
versus similar cash instruments is often preferable because, though 



                                       14

<PAGE>   15

they perform financially quite similarly, they may require less capital and
preserve access to the marketplace for future needs.

         The following table illustrates the approximate market values,
estimated maturities and weighted average rates of the interest rate swaps used
by Huntington in its interest rate risk management program. The valuation of
interest rate swap contracts is largely a function of the financial market's
expectations regarding the future direction of interest rates. At March 31,
1996, forward rates were somewhat higher than those prevailing at the recent
year end. Consequently, the interest rate swap portfolio ended the first quarter
with an unrealized loss of $9.5 million versus a $10.9 million unrealized gain
at December 31. Current market values are not necessarily indicative of the
future impact of the swaps on net interest income. This will depend, in large
part, on the shape of the yield curve as well as interest rate levels. For
purposes of the variable rate information and the indexed amortizing swap
maturities presented in the table below, management made no assumptions with
respect to future changes in interest rates.

    The pay rates on Huntington's receive fixed swaps vary based on movements in
the applicable London inter-bank offered rate (LIBOR). Receive fixed liability
conversion swaps with a notional value of $150 million have embedded written
LIBOR-based caps. Also, receive fixed asset conversion swaps with a notional
value of $200 million have embedded written LIBOR-based call options. The
portfolio of amortizing swaps consists of contracts with notional values that
are indexed to the prepayment experience of a specified pool of mortgage loans
or Constant Maturity U.S. Treasury yields (CMT). As market interest rates
change, the amortization of the notional values will also change, generally
slowing as rates increase and accelerating when rates fall. Basis swaps are
contracts which provide for both parties to receive floating rates of interest
according to different indices and are used to protect against changes in
spreads. The receive and pay amounts applicable to Huntington's basis swaps are
determined by LIBOR or other indices common to the banking industry.

   The notional values of the swap portfolio represent contractually determined
amounts on which calculations of interest payments to be exchanged are based.
These notional values do not represent direct credit exposures. At March 31,
1996, Huntington's credit risk from interest rate swaps used for asset/liability
management purposes was $42.2 million, which is significantly less than the
notional value of the contracts, and represents the sum of the aggregate fair
value of positions that have become favorable to Huntington, including any
accrued interest receivable due from counterparties. In order to minimize the
risk that a swap counterparty will not satisfy its interest payment obligation
under the terms of the contract, Huntington performs credit reviews on all
counterparties, restricts the number of counterparties used to a select group of
high quality institutions, obtains collateral, and enters into formal netting
arrangements. Huntington

has never experienced any past due amounts from a swap counterparty and does not
anticipate non-performance in the future by any such counterparties.

  The following table summarizes activity in the interest rate swap portfolio
used for asset/liability management purposes during the first three months of
1996 and 1995:

    Terminations reflect the decisions made by ALCO to modify, refine, or change
balance sheet management strategies, as a result of either a change in overall
interest rate risk tolerances or changes in balance sheet composition. At March
31, 1996, Huntington had deferred approximately $27.8 million of net realized
losses from terminated interest rate swaps, which are to be amortized as yield
adjustments over the remaining term of the original contracts, as presented
below.

    The total notional amount of off-balance sheet instruments used by
Huntington on behalf of customers (for which the related interest rate risk is
offset by third party contracts) was $452 million at March 31, 1996. Total
credit exposure from such contracts, represented by those instruments with a
positive fair value, was $1.3 million at the recent quarter end. These separate
activities, which are accounted for at fair value, are not a significant part of
Huntington's operations. Accordingly, they have been excluded from the above
discussion of off-balance sheet financial instruments and the related tables.

ASSET QUALITY

    Huntington's exposure to credit risk is managed through the use of
underwriting standards which emphasize "in-market" lending to established
borrowers. Highly leveraged transactions and excessive industry or other
concentrations are avoided. The credit administration function also employs
extensive monitoring procedures to ensure that problem loans are promptly
identified and that loans adhere to corporate policy. These procedures provide
executive management with the information necessary to implement appropriate
change and take corrective action as needed.

   Asset quality continues to be strong. Non-performing loans, which
include loans that are no longer accruing interest and loans that have been
renegotiated based upon financial difficulties of the borrower, totaled $63.1
million at the most recent quarter end and represented .47% of 




                                       18

<PAGE>   19
total loans. Huntington also has certain loans which are past due ninety days or
more but have not been placed on nonaccrual status. These loans, which total   
$25.8 million at March 31, 1996, are primarily consumer and residential real   
estate loans that are considered well-secured and in the process of collection 
or are being extended.                                                         
                                                                               
     Other real estate owned (ORE) totaled $20.3 million at the end of the first
three months of 1996, down from $26.6 million at the same time last year.      
Huntington's management continues to aggressively pursue the sale of its ORE to
further reduce these non-performing assets.                                    
                                                                               
     The allowance for loan losses (ALL) is maintained at a level considered   
appropriate by management based on its estimate of losses inherent in the loan 
portfolio. The procedures employed by Huntington in evaluating the adequacy of 
the ALL include an analysis of specific credits that are generally selected for
review on the basis of size and relative risk, portfolio trends, current and   
historical loss experience, prevailing economic conditions, and other relevant 
factors. The provision for loan losses was $11.8 million in the first three    
months of 1996 versus $4.6 million in the same period one year ago. Annualized 
net charge-offs as a percent of average total loans were .34% for the quarter  
just ended, roughly flat with full year 1995. At the recent quarter end, the ALL
represented 1.48% of total loans and covered 312.8% of non-performing loans;

     Huntington places significant emphasis on the maintenance of strong       
capital, which promotes investor confidence, provides access to the national   
markets under favorable terms, and enhances the ability to capitalize on       
business growth and acquisition opportunities. The company also recognizes the 
importance of managing excess capital and continually strives to maintain an

appropriate balance between capital adequacy and returns to shareholders.
Capital is managed at each subsidiary based upon the respective risks and growth
opportunities, as well as regulatory requirements.

     Average equity to average assets was 7.89% in the first quarter of 1996,
compared with 8.15% in the same period last year. Presented below are
Huntington's regulatory capital ratios and the related levels established for
"well-capitalized" institutions:

         On February 21, 1996, the Board of Directors authorized Huntington to
repurchase up to 10 million additional shares of its common stock through open
market purchases and privately negotiated transactions. The authorization
represents a continuation of the common stock repurchase program begun in August
1987 and provides that the shares will be reserved for reissue in connection
with Huntington's benefit plans as well as for other corporate purposes. The
company acquired 5.2 million shares in the quarter just ended at an aggregate
cost of $124.3 million, leaving 8.7 million shares available for repurchase.
Huntington's management believes the remaining authorized shares will be
repurchased by the end of 1997.
