                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (unaudited)


Note 1. Basis of Presentation

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
adjustments) in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
necessary to present fairly the financial position as of March 31, 1994,
and December 31, 1993, and the results of operations and cash flows
for the  three month periods ended March 31, 1994 and 1993.  Certain
reclassifications have been made to amounts previously reported to conform
with the classification made in 1994.


Note 2. Earning per share

     Earning per share are based on the 2,699,056 weighted average number of
shares outstanding in both 1994 and 1993.

<PAGE>

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


Financial Condition

Total assets of Farmers National Bancorp ("Bancorp") were $710 million as of
March 31, 1994, a 4.0 percent increase over the $682 million of March 31, 1993
and a 0.6 percent decrease from the $714 million of December 31, 1993.

The increased assets were primarily funded by deposit growth and retained
earnings. Total deposits of $618 million represented a 3.3 percent increase over
the $617 million of a year ago. During 1993, continued low interest rates
created a shift of funds from  certificates of deposit to savings accounts,
enabling the consumer to maintain liquidity in anticipation of rising rates in
1994. As a result, certificates of deposits decreased $13 million during the
past year while savings account balances increased $20 million. During the same
period noninterest bearing deposits also increased $10 million.

Loan demand continued to remain weak in the first quarter. Therefore, new funds
as well as maturing assets were placed in federal funds sold and short term
investment securities. With the anticipation that interest rates would be rising
in the near future, it is management's intent to maintain a positive interest
rate sensitivity position.


Capital Resources

Total equity capital at March 31, 1994 was $70.5 million. This represents an
increase of $5.5 million or 8.5 percent from the $65.0 million as of March 31,
1993, and a 0.8 percent increase over the December 31, 1993 total of $69.9
million. For the three months ending March 31, 1994, Bancorp did not enter into
any transactions that required external financing. During this period, Bancorp's
primary source of capital was retained earnings. Net increases through retained
earnings after payment of dividends amounted to $1.5 million.

As of December 31, 1993, Bancorp affiliates adopted the provisions of Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investment in
Debt and Equity Securities." This statement requires the identification and
segregation of its investment portfolio into those securities it intends to hold
to maturity and those securities which are available for sale. Investment
securities held to maturity are carried at amortized cost while investment
securities available for sale are carried at fair value. Net unrealized holdings
gains and losses on securities available for sale are reported as a separate
component of stockholders' equity, net of related income taxes. As a result,
Bancorp recorded an unrealized loss on investment securities available for sale
in the amount of $905 thousand net of related taxes.

A strong capital base provides for growth and expansion activities, gives
stability to current operations and adds to the public confidence of the
Company.  Historically, appropriate regulatory agencies have determined the
capital adequacy guidelines of financial institutions. There are two current
measurements of adequate capital levels, leverage and risk-based.


                                     -7-

<PAGE>

An institutions leverage ratio is tier 1 capital divided by quarterly average
assets. Minimum leverage guidelines are three percent, with up to an additional
capital cushion of one to two percent. The tier 1 capital ratio is tier 1
capital divided by total risk-adjusted assets and the total capital ratio is
tier 1 capital plus tier 2 capital divided by total risk-adjusted assets.
Regulatory requirements for tier 1 capital is 4 percent and for total capital it
is 8 percent. As indicated by the following table, all Bancorp's capital ratios
continue to be well above minimum regulatory capital standards.

Results of Operations - Three months ending March 31

For the quarter ended March 31, 1994, Farmers National Bancorp had earnings of
$2.3 million or $.85 per share. This is equal to the 4th quarter 1993 earnings
and a 5.5 percent decrease from the comparable earnings of $2.4 million or $.90
per share recorded for the first quarter of 1993. However, a one time accounting
change which represented the effect of implementing the Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" was recorded
during the first quarter of 1993, which added $1.4 million or $.53 per share to
earnings. As a result, 1993 first quarter net income was $3.9 million or $1.43
per share.

The flattened earnings are due primarily to a decrease in the net interest
margin arising from a continued decline in the yield on earning assets while
interest expense paid on deposits has leveled. Interest income for the three
months ended March 31, 1994 totaled $10.7 million, a decrease of $700 thousand
or 6.1 percent from the amount earned during the same period in 1993. At the
same time interest expense decreased $300 thousand or 7.2 percent. As a result,
net interest income before the provision for possible loan losses totaled $6.6
million, a decrease of 5.5%.

The yield on average earning assets was 6.8 percent in 1994, a decrease of 70
basis points from the 1993 yield of 7.5 percent. The rate paid on interest
bearing liabilities was 3.0 percent in 1994, a decrease of 30 basis points below
the 3.3 percent paid in 1993. The resulting effect was a decrease of 40 basis
points in the net interest spread and net yield on average earning assets.

In 1994 the provision for possible loan losses totaled $224 thousand, compared
to $393 thousand in 1993. The decrease in the loan loss provision reflects the
improved credit quality as well as the modest growth in the loan portfolio. Net
charge-offs for the first quarter of 1994 totaled $188 thousand, a substantial
decrease from the $364 thousand recorded in the first quarter of 1993. As of
March 31, 1994 non-performing loans totaled $3.5 million compared with $3.0
million as of March 31, 1993. Management feels the 1.84 percent reserve for
possible loan losses to total loans is adequate, based on current portfolio
composition and quality.


                                     -8-

<PAGE>

Noninterest income in 1994 totaled $1.1 million, a modest increase of 3.4
percent over 1993. Trust department income and fees generated from the sale of
mortgages in the secondary market contributed to the increase while charges and
fees collected from deposit activities decreased slightly.

In 1994 noninterest expense totaled $4.4 million compared to $4.3 in 1993, an
increase of 2.5 percent. The modest increase reflects management's continued
emphasis on controlling costs. Salaries and employee benefits, which represent
more than half the total grew 4.5 percent. The added expenses are attributable
to merit increases and higher benefit costs. Full time equivalent employees were
304 and 301 at March 31, 1994 and 1993 respectively. Included in other expenses
is the item of legal and consultant fees which decreased substantially in 1994.
Other categories of expense recorded nominal increases generated by generally
higher overhead costs and increased volumes. Annualized noninterest expense
expressed as a percentage of average assets was 2.5 percent both years.
