CORUS BANKSHARES, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
-------------------------------------------
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Statements of Income,
Statements of Cash Flows and Changes in Shareholders' Equity are unaudited.
The interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only
of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods
presented. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in Corus Bankshares, Inc.'s consolidated financial statements for
the three years ended December 31, 1998 included in Corus' Annual Report
and Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998. The results of
operations for the interim period should not be considered indicative of
results to be expected for the full year.
Certain reclassifications have been made in the 1998 financial statements
to conform to current accounting classifications.
2. Student Loan Lawsuit
--------------------
In 1994 Corus discovered that certain former employees in the student loan
servicing area had recorded in Corus' records the making of telephone calls
to borrowers whose student loans were delinquent when in fact some of those
calls had not been made. Immediately upon Corus' discovery of the issue,
CORUS self-reported its findings to the Department of Education. Shortly
thereafter, the Department of Education commenced an investigation into
Corus' student loan servicing practices.
On April 8, 1999, the Department of Justice filed a civil lawsuit against
Corus Bankshares, Inc. and Corus Bank, N.A. alleging, among other things,
violations of the federal False Claims Act and liability under other common
law theories by submitting fraudulent insurance claims for defaulted
student loans. The government alleges that some insurance claims filed were
false because certain of Corus' supporting records were not retained or
because certain Corus records do not exactly match the insurance claims
submitted or because certain claimed due diligence was not performed. Corus
has received information from the Department of Justice to indicate that
the Department of Justice thinks that there were at least 2,200 false
claims. Corus is contesting the lawsuit and has substantial defenses.
While the lawsuit filed was a civil action, it is possible that individual
employees, ex-employees or the Company may also be sued criminally.
Shortly after notifying the Department of Education in 1994 of the student
loan servicing issue, Corus entered into an interim agreement with the
Department of Education pursuant to which it agreed, pending the conclusion
of the investigation, not to request payment from any guarantor or the
Department on any loans that Corus is unable to state with certainty were
not affected by incorrect servicing history documentation. As a result of
that agreement, a total of more than $15 million of loans subject to the
interim agreement were charged off against the allowance for loan losses
between 1996 and 1999. The ultimate collectibility of these loans is
uncertain. Corus may have a right to recover some or all of the $15 million
in student loans it voluntarily withheld from submission for claim payment
and has filed a counterclaim to that effect.

CORUS BANKSHARES, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
3. In June 1998, SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities" was issued effective for all fiscal periods beginning
after June 15, 1999. In June 1999, SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities-Deferral of the Effective Date of SFAS
No. 133" was issued to amend SFAS No. 133 to be effective for all fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting
and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument be
recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at
its fair value. The statement requires that changes in the derivative's
fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific accounting
criteria are met and the hedge is considered to be highly effective.
Special accounting for qualifying hedges allows a derivative's gains and
losses to offset related results on the hedged item in the income
statement, and requires that a company must formally document, designate,
and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge accounting.
Corus uses derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk and market
risk in its loan and common stock portfolios, respectively. The statement
is effective for Corus for the fiscal quarter beginning January 1, 2001.
Corus has not yet quantified the impact of adopting this statement on its
financial position or results of its operations.
4. Segment Reporting
-----------------
In 1998, Corus adopted SFAS No. 131 "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information". For purposes of this statement,
Management has determined that Corus, Corus Bank and Bancorp Operations
Company (BOC) are primary operating segments within Corus. Corus Bank
derives a significant portion of its total revenues from interest income
offering commercial, mortgage, home equity, student and personal loans. It
also provides general banking services such as checking, savings, money
market and time deposit accounts; trust and investment management and a
variety of other services. BOC provides item processing, bookkeeping and
other ancillary bank support services to Corus Bank. Substantially all
revenues of BOC are intersegment and eliminated from consolidated total
revenues. Both Corus Bank and BOC are wholly owned subsidiaries of Corus.
Transactions between the reportable segments are recorded on the reportable
segments' financial statements and significant inter-segment accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in the preparation of the consolidated
financial statements.
On the following page is a summary of significant segment information as
required by SFAS No. 131:

ITEM 2. - CORUS BANKSHARES, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 AND 1998
OPERATING RESULTS
For the three months ended September 30, 1999, net income was $10.9 million, or
$0.76 per share on a diluted basis, an increase of 7% from net income of $10.2
million, or $0.69 per share on a diluted basis, in 1998. For the nine months
ended September 30, 1999, net income was $32.2 million, or $2.22 per share on a
diluted basis, an increase of 6% from net income of $30.3 million, or $2.05 per
share on a diluted basis for the same period in 1998.
Earnings for the third quarter of 1999 represented annualized returns of 13.3%
on equity (ROE) and 1.7% on assets (ROA) compared to 13.9% and 1.6% for the same
period in 1998.
Net Interest Income
- -------------------
The major source of earnings for Corus is net interest income. Net interest
income is the difference between interest income and fees on earning assets and
interest expense on deposits and borrowings. The related net interest margin
represents the net interest income as a percentage of the average earning assets
during the period.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999, Corus recognized $2.0
million and $5.3 million of interest income from the accretion of acquisition
discount related to several groups of purchased, previously nonperforming
student loan pools, compared to $0.9 million and $2.9 million for the same
periods in 1998.
The following table represents the impact of the student loan discount accretion
on the net interest margin for the three and nine month periods ended September
30, 1999 and September 30, 1998:
<TABLE>

-------------- ------------- ------------ ------------
Net interest margin without student loan discount accretion 4.22% 3.90% 4.08% 4.21%
</TABLE>
The net interest margin (net of student loan discount accretion) improved
markedly in the third quarter of this year, climbing from approximately 4.0% in
the each of the first two quarters of this year to 4.2% for the three month
period ended September 30, 1999. This increase was due to the strong increase in
high-yielding loans during the quarter that was funded by shifting out of
low-margin temporary investments, and secondarily related to a rise in interest
rates. As Corus is asset sensitive, that is, the Bank has more variable rate
assets than variable rate liabilities, the increasing rate environment of 1999
has benefited the Bank's margin.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 AND 1998
Noninterest Income
- ------------------
For the three months ended September 30, 1999, noninterest income, excluding
security gains/(losses) and gains on disposition of student loans, was up
slightly to $3.5 million from $3.4 million for the same three month period in
1998. For the nine months ended September 30, 1999, noninterest income,
excluding security gains/(losses) and gains on disposition of student loans,
increased by over 18% to $11 million from $9 million for same nine month period
in 1998.
Income from "Curing" of Student Loans
- -------------------------------------
In past years, nonperforming student loans were purchased at a substantial
discount to the face value of the loans. Corus converts a substantial amount of
these loans to performing status and reinstates their government guarantees.
Corus refers to this process as "curing," and it has represented a significant
source of income to Corus over the past several years. As a result of federal
regulation, virtually all remaining curable loans lost their eligibility to
become cured on June 30, 1999.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999, Corus recognized $3.3
million and $9.6 million, respectively, of curing income, compared to $4.1
million and $9.3 million, respectively, for the same periods for 1998.
At September 30, 1999, Corus had cured approximately $4 million of student loans
for which the income from these cures has not yet been recognized in its income
statement. Corus anticipates that it will recognize approximately $3 million
during the last three months of 1999, yielding total curing income in 1999 of
approximately $12 million. The income from these curing operations will drop to
approximately $1 million in the year 2000 and be immaterial thereafter.
Income Taxes
- ------------
The effective income tax rate for the third quarter of 1999 was 33.5% versus
34.1% in 1998. For the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, the
effective income tax rates for both periods were 33.9% and 34.1% respectively.
The decline in the effective income tax rates was primarily due to lower
goodwill amortization in the 1999 periods.

The following table details the composition of the "large" loans in Corus'
commercial real estate portfolio. For purposes of this analysis, large loan
means any loan with a current balance outstanding combined with any unfunded
portion totaling $10 million or greater.
All of the below tables are as of September 30, 1999:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Total $1,323,928 $ 569,870 43% $ 16,760
=====================================================================
</TABLE>
We had 34 separate large loans as of September 30, 1999. Of the large loans
$365 million of current balances, $159 million, or 44%, are construction loans.
Virtually all of the unfunded commitments are related to construction loans.
Over the past several decades, the banking industry has shown higher delinquency
and loss rates for construction loans than for commercial real estate mortgage
loans.
The commercial real estate markets have been good for many years and Corus has
had particularly impressive results. Net chargeoffs on Corus' commercial real
estate loans have totaled just $326,000 for the last 10 full years (1989 through
1998) and with net recoveries for 1999 year-to-date. This performance translates
into an average annual loss rate of only 3/100ths of one percent (0.03%). While
our commercial real estate portfolio continues to show minimal delinquencies and
virtually no losses, we recognize this sort of performance can not persist
forever. The economy has been unusually good for an unusually long period of
time. As we have previously indicated, we are not lulled by our relative absence
of loan losses over the past ten years.

aggregate book values of $132,000 and twenty-four residential properties with
aggregate book values of $3.7 million. During the third quarter of 1999, Corus
sold one commercial real estate property with an aggregate book value of
$174,000 for a net gain of $104,000 and fourteen residential properties with an
aggregate book values of $1.2 million for a net gain of $27,000.
Excluded from the preceding table are student loans that Corus has no reason to

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Capital
- -------
Corus' consolidated leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital/total average quarterly
assets) was 10.96% at September 30, 1999, well in excess of the minimum
regulatory level of 5.00%. The consolidated Tier 1 and total risk-based capital
ratios were 15.17% and 18.32%, respectively, exceeding the minimum
well-capitalized Tier 1 and total risk-based capital ratios of 6.00% and 10.00%,
respectively.
During the first nine months of 1999, Corus repurchased and retired 431,852
shares at an average price of $31.31 per share. A total of 700,952 shares have
been repurchased under the 750,000 common share repurchase program approved by
the Board of Directors in 1997. This program provides a means to return some of
Corus' excess capital.
YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE
State of Readiness
In June of 1997, responsibility for Corus' Year 2000-readiness project was
assigned to the Project Management Group that reports directly to a member of
the Corus Bank Board of Directors.
Corus' Year 2000 project plan is designed after the Federal Financial
Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) model. Corus' Board of Directors
receives formal status reports quarterly updating them on the progress of the
project. The project is approximately 99% complete. And, with the exception of
an internally developed application that has been tested for year 2000
readiness, all of the mission critical systems have been tested where necessary
and placed into production.
The assessment phase took the form of a mass inventory performed to identify
information technology systems including information systems, software and
equipment. The inventory also identifies non-technology relationships such as
environmental systems, business partners and major borrowers. During the
assessment phase of Corus' readiness project, approximately 32% of Corus'
internal systems were identified as being mission critical. Of these mission
critical systems, 98% have been upgraded to a Year 2000 ready status or are not
date sensitive. Corus continues to work closely with the vendors and third-party
servicers of the remaining 2% (this represents 3 elements) of the mission
critical systems to acquire the necessary products and coordinate the necessary
actions to make these items Year 2000 capable.
Assessment of Year 2000 risk for commercial lending customers is an ongoing
process that relies heavily on interviews between commercial lending officers
and customers. These interviews assess the customers' awareness of the potential
financial impact of Year 2000 issues on their business and any relevant risk to
Corus. This potential Year 2000 risk to the bank, through its lending
relationship with each customer, is eventually identified as "high", "medium" or
"low". This methodology of risk assessment allows Corus to take appropriate
measures to monitor Year 2000 risk for its commercial lending customers.
Internal validation efforts were aided through the use of an outside consulting
firm. The consulting firm formulated the test methodology and provided guidance
on the testing of individual applications.
Corus relies on third-party providers for the majority of data processing needs.
The core data processing systems for both customer information and student
lending have been upgraded and are running a version the third parties have
certified as Year 2000 ready. Testing of these two systems is complete. The core
data processing system that maintains account and customer information for
Corus' Trust area has also been upgraded to a Year 2000 ready version. Proxy
testing of this system is complete. In proxy testing, the service provider tests
with a representative sample of financial institutions
19
<PAGE> 22
that use a particular service on the same platform. Test results then are shared
with all similarly situated clients of the service provider. Testing of the
three main data processing systems represents the largest portion of required
testing. Validation of the Year 2000 readiness status of mission critical
systems is approximately 98% complete. We await final test results for an
internally-developed system before placing this system into production.
Costs to Address Year 2000 Issues
Although Corus does not currently expect the costs of Year 2000 readiness to be
material, some expenses will be incurred. Corus estimates total costs (which
include expenses and investments) associated with the project to be
approximately $1.3 million.
The Risks of Year 2000 Issues and Contingency Planning
Information technology and non-information technology elements that expose Corus
to Year 2000 risk have been internally classified into three levels of
importance. Critical A items are those that would, upon failure, severely limit
Corus' ability to participate in the business of banking. Ten items have been
deemed to be Critical A. The ten items include various data processing and
information systems, the interface between Corus' information systems and the
ATM network, the telecommunications system, and the wire transfer system. A
specific example of a Critical A item is Corus' core data processing system
whose failure would inhibit Corus' ability to process, record, and access
customer and account information. The second tier of items that would impact
Corus are Critical B items. Some examples of Critical B items are an ATM
terminal and a security system. All other elements, such as photocopy machines,
are considered non-critical.
The most reasonably likely worst case scenario relating to the Year 2000 issue
would involve the failure of the Critical A items. At this stage of the overall
readiness project, Corus does not believe that any failure is reasonably likely
to occur. Nonetheless, Corus' goal is to be prepared for a worst case scenario.
Corus currently has a written Business Recovery Plan in place. Corus has drafted
a Year 2000 Corporate Contingency Plan based on the existing Business Recovery
Plan to address how to deal with Critical A and Critical B failures caused by
Year 2000 events. An alternate power source is in place to power the processing
operations if necessary. Department managers have created remediation and
business resumption contingency plans for their respective functions that have
been incorporated into overall business resumption plan. This plan has been
reviewed internally and by a third party consulting group. Corus intends to
schedule further reviews during the remainder of 1999.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
On April 8, 1999, the Department of Justice filed a civil lawsuit against Corus
Bankshares, Inc. and Corus Bank, N.A. in the United States District Court
Northern District of Illinois Eastern Division alleging, among other things,
that Corus violated the federal False Claims Act by submitting fraudulent
insurance claims for defaulted student loans. The government alleges that some
insurance claims filed were false because certain of Corus' supporting records
were not retained or because certain Corus records do not exactly match the
insurance claims submitted or because certain claimed due diligence was not
performed. Corus is contesting the lawsuit and has substantial defenses. Refer
to Note 2 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements on page 5
for further information.
