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

EARNINGS:
      Net earnings for the second quarter ended June 30, 2000 were $4,723,000
compared with $3,914,000 in the second quarter of 1999. Basic earnings per share
was $ .56 for the second quarter of 2000, compared with earnings per share of $
 .45 in the second quarter of 1999. Earnings information is summarized below:

                                          Second Quarter          Six Months

      Net interest income for the second quarter was $13,546,000 compared with
$12,307,000 in the second quarter of 1999. Fluctuations in net interest income
can result from changes in the volume of assets and liabilities as well as
changes in interest rates. The following table summarizes variances in net
interest income attributed to changes in balance sheet volumes and interest
rates on a fully taxable equivalent basis:

             NET INTEREST INCOME CHANGE FROM SIX MONTHS 1999

                                                              Resulting from:

                                               -----       -----      -------
  Total Earning Assets                       $ 8,690     $ 4,204      $ 4,486
  Total Interest Bearing Liabilities           6,201       3,449        2,752

                                        =====================================

      The tax equivalent net interest margin for the quarter was 4.98 percent
compared with 5.06 percent for the same period last year. The yield on earning
assets has increased in 2000 due to the overall increase in rates. The average
base lending rate increased to 9.50 percent in the quarter from 8.50 percent
last year. In the same period, the rate paid on interest bearing liabilities

                                       5
<PAGE>

has also increased, again reflecting the overall increase in interest rates.
Average loans increased by 10 percent over the second quarter of 1999, resulting
from increased loan demand at our bank subsidiary, National City Bank of
Minneapolis. Both commercial and commercial real estate loan volume increased at
the bank.

      Noninterest income for the second quarter was $2,326,000 compared with
$2,423,000 in 1999. There was a slight decrease in service charges, trust fees,
and fees from other customer services, partially offset by an increase in other
income.

      Noninterest expense was $7,581,000 for the second quarter compared with
$7,263,000 for the second quarter of 1999. Increases in personnel expenses,
equipment and other were partially offset by decreases in occupancy expenses.
The increase in personnel expense was primarily due to performance-related
compensation costs, reflecting higher net earnings at the bank subsidiary.

      The efficiency ratio was 47.76 percent for the second quarter of 2000
compared to 49.31 percent for the same period last year. The improved efficiency
was due to the increased net interest income, relative to growth in noninterest
expense.


RESERVE FOR LOAN LOSSES:

      Net loan charge-offs during the second quarter were $734,000 compared with
$3,269,000 for the same period last year. Net charge-offs last year included
$3,276,000 at Diversified Business Credit, Inc., the Company's commercial
finance subsidiary. The charge-off was primarily a single credit in the
subsidiary's portfolio. The loan loss provision was $630,000 for the second
quarter, compared with $997,000 in the second quarter of 1999. The provision is
based on management's continuing evaluation of the Company's loan portfolio,
including estimates and appraisals of collateral values, and current economic
conditions. At June 30, 2000, the allowance for loan losses was $14,079,000, or
1.60 percent of loans, compared to 1.66 percent of loans at December 31, 1999.
Nonperforming assets were 13.8 million at June 30, 2000 compared with 16.3
million at December 31, 1999. Nonperforming assets consist of loans 90 days or
more past due, non-accrual loans, restructured loans and impaired loans. Loans
on non-accrual were $4.0 million compared with $5.6 million at March 31, 2000.





Activity regarding the allowance is summarized below:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
         The Company's average total assets were $ 1.124 billion for the
six-months ended June 30, 2000, up from $ 1.033 billion for the same period in
1999. The majority of the increase was attributed to loans to businesses. The
Company continues to fund asset growth from various liability sources, including
interest and noninterest bearing deposits, short-term and long-term borrowings,
and retention of earnings. Short-term borrowings include commercial paper and a
bank line of credit, which are used to fund loans made by Diversified Business
Credit, Inc. (DBCI). In addition to deposits and short-term borrowings, the
Company had long-term debt of $ 196 million at June 30, 2000, in the form of
Federal Home Loan Bank advances at National City Bank of Minneapolis (NCB) and
senior notes issued by DBCI and guaranteed by the Company. The notes are rated
BBB by Fitch. The Company issues commercial paper primarily in its local market.
The commercial paper is rated F2 by Fitch.

         The Company continues to maintain a capital position that exceeds
regulatory risk based and leverage ratio capital requirements. The required risk
based ratio is 8 percent and the required leverage ratio is 3 to 5 percent. The
following table shows the Company's capital ratios:

                                            June 30,

         LEVERAGE RATIO             13.6%             13.7%

BUSINESS SEGMENTS:
The Company has two business segments, National City Bank of Minneapolis
(commercial bank) and Diversified Business Credit, Inc. (commercial finance).
The main offices of each segment are located in the business district of
downtown Minneapolis. The commercial bank has a full service branch bank in
Edina, Minnesota. The commercial finance segment also has an office in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

                                       7
<PAGE>

The commercial bank offers the usual banking services including business,
consumer, and real estate loans, deposit and cash management services,
correspondent banking, and safe deposit. In addition, the commercial bank also
offers trust services including management of funds for individuals, the
administration of estates and trusts, and for corporations, governmental bodies,
and public authorities, paying agent services, trustee under corporate
indenture, pension and profit sharing agreements, and record keeping and
reporting for 401-K savings plans. The commercial bank originates the majority
of its business in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area.

The net income of the commercial bank increased to $2.6 million in the second
quarter of 2000 from $2.0 million in the same period of 1999. The bank has
increased its net earnings through the growth of its loan portfolio and the use
of lower cost funding sources, primarily non-interest bearing deposits, and by
maintaining the level of non-interest expenses incurred.

The following table summarizes the commercial bank's performance measures:

The commercial finance segment specializes in providing working capital loans
secured by accounts receivable, inventory, and other marketable assets. Loans
are made on a demand basis with no fixed repayment schedule. Compared to
equity-based loans made by commercial banks and others, asset-based loans
require closer monitoring and interest rates earned on these loans are typically
higher. The commercial finance segment funds its loans through the issuance of
long-term debt in the form of Senior Notes and borrowings from the parent
company. The commercial finance segment originates the majority of its loans in
Minnesota with approximately 15 percent originated in its Wisconsin office.

The net earnings of the commercial finance segment were $1.8 million in the
second quarter of 2000 compared with $1.6 million in the same period of 1999.
The increase is due primarily to a reduction in the provision for loan losses.

The following table summarizes the commercial finance segment's performance
measures:
