NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
The information furnished reflects all adjustments which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement
of results for the three (3) months ended March 31, 1997 and
1996. All adjustments are considered to be of recurring nature.
Results for the interim period may not necessarily be indicative
of results for the entire year.
NOTE 1:
On January 13, 1983, pursuant to a Reorganization and Merger
Agreement, Guaranty Bank & Trust Company of Morgan City (the
Bank) was merged into a subsidiary of Guaranty Bancshares Holding
Corporation (Bancshares) with the effect that the Bank became a
wholly owned subsidiary of Bancshares.
Bancshares has outstanding $2.70 Cumulative Preferred Stock
and Class B, No Par Value, Common Stock which were issued in 1988
in exchange for subordinated debentures issued in 1983 when the
company was formed. Bancshares also has outstanding Class A,
$5.00 Par Value, Common Stock which were also issued when the
company was formed. The $.50 Cumulative Preferred Stock is
subordinate to the $2.70 Preferred Stock and were issued for cash
in 1989 and 1990.
The Class B common stock does not differ from the Class A
common stock except that Class A common stock has a par value of
$5 per share and Class B Common stock has no par value.
NOTE 2: Contingent Liabilities
As of March 31, 1997, there were $657,108 of letters of
credit outstanding which are not reflected in the consolidated
financial statements. Management does not expect any loss as a
result of these transactions.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Summary
For the three months ended March 31, 1997, Bancshares earned
$158,000, compared with earnings of $105,000 for the comparable
period in 1996. The primary reason for the increase in earnings
was a $98,000 increase in interest income. The subsidiary bank
did not make a provision for loan losses in either period.
Other than the decrease in other liabilities, there were no
significant changes in financial position at March 31, 1997 from
December 31, 1996. This decrease represented the payment of
$391,502 in dividends on Bancshares' $2.70 cumulative preferred
stock. This dividend was declared in December 1996.
Net credit income is the most significant component of
financial operations and is affected by interacting forces,
including changes in investment market interest rates and changes
in volume and mix of interest earning assets and interest bearing
deposits. For the first three months of 1997, net interest
income as a percent of average earning assets of $60,721,000 was
4.7 percent, the same as the first quarter of 1996.
Net Operating Results
The following analysis should be read in conjunction with
the accompanying financial statements.
Interest income increased a net of $98,000. Of this amount,
income on investment securities increased $45,000. Interest on
loans increased $94,000, while income on funds sold decreased
$41,000.
The increase in loan income is attributable to a $4,082,000
increase in average loans outstanding and 0.1 percent decrease in
the average yields to 9.4 percent. The increase in investment
income was the result of a $3,972,000 increase in average
securities investments and was offset by a 0.3 percent decrease
in average yields, following the overall change in interest
rates.
Interest expense increased $27,000 from 1996 levels.
Average interest bearing deposits increased $4,856,000, while
average rates paid decreased 0.1 percent from 1996 levels to 3.7
percent. Funds borrowed are from the Federal Home Loan Bank of
Dallas and were used to fund commercial real estate loans which
have a comparable scheduled amortization and maturity.
Investment Securities
Investment securities increased from $16,181,000 as of March
31, 1996 to $17,792,000 at March 31, 1997. There were no
securities sales during the first quarter of 1997 or 1996.

Maturities of mortgage backed securities are classified by
contractual (stated) maturity dates. Expected maturities will
differ from contractual maturities because borrowers have the
right to call or prepay obligations.
Investment securities with a carrying value of approximately
$9,034,000, $9,047,000, and $8,128,000 at March 31, 1997,
December 31, 1996 and March 31, 1996, respectively, were pledged
to secure public deposits as required by law.

A summary of the deposits as of March 31, 1997, December 31,

Non-interest bearing demand deposits at March 31, 1997
decreased $190,000, from March 31, 1996. In late March 1997, a
public fund body deposited the proceeds of a bond issue causing a
short term increase in money market investment accounts. These
funds were withdrawn early in April 1997. As interest paid on
money market investment accounts and certificates of deposits
stabilized, the Bank again began competing for deposits to fund
increasing loan demand. Certificates of deposits of $100,000 or
more to commercial entities increased $1,173,000. During this
period, public fund deposits in certificates of deposit of
$100,000 or more decreased $426,000.
The Bank has insignificant foreign and no brokered deposits.
Short Term Borrowings
The Bank had no short term borrowings in 1997 or 1996.
Allowance for Loan Losses and Non-Performing Loans and Other Real
Estate
The allowance for loan losses was 1.34 percent of loans
outstanding at March 31, 1997, compared with 1.33 percent at
December 31, 1996 and 1.48 percent at March 31, 1996. The Bank
did not make a provision to the reserve for loan losses during
the first quarters of 1997 or 1996.

Income Taxes
Income taxes were accrued at the U.S. federal tax rate.
Liquidity
The term "liquidity" generally refers to the ability of a
company to generate adequate of cash to meet its needs. For a
bank, "liquidity" represents its ability to meet timely the
demand for funds used to honor checks, to pay maturing time
deposits, to fund increases in loan demand and to satisfy other
commitments. Unless it borrows funds, a bank's source of funds
are generally its core deposits and its retained earnings.
At March 31, 1997 and 1996, the Bank's gross loans-to-
deposits ratios were 67.2 percent and 65.3 percent, respectively.
Loans increased $3,923,000 from 1996 levels. Significant to the
loan-to-deposit ratio computation, deposits increased $4,317,000
as of March 31, 1997 from 1996. The Bank has no brokered
deposits.
As a bank holding company, the ability of Bancshares to pay
its obligations is wholly dependent upon the receipt of dividends
and tax benefits from the Bank.
Capital Resources
At March 31, 1997, stockholders' equity amounted to
$5,711,000 compared with $5,767,000 at March 31, 1996 and
$5,566,000 at December 31, 1996.
Selected capital adequacy measures for Bancshares and Guaranty
Bank are as follows
as of March 31, 1997:

Bancshares paid a $2.70 dividend on its $2.70 cumulative
preferred stock on January 24, 1997. No dividends have been
declared or paid on its $.50 cumulative preferred stock since
their issuance. As a result, accumulated and unpaid dividends
