ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     This item discusses the results of operations for the Company
for the three months ended March 31, 2000, and compares this period
with the same period of the previous year.  In addition, the
discussion describes the significant changes in the financial
condition of the Company at March 31, 2000 as compared to December
31, 1999.  This discussion should be read in conjunction with the
unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes
presented in Part I, Item 1 of this report.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 was $6.418
million or $0.59 per share on a diluted basis compared to $5.618
million or $0.52 per share on a diluted basis for the same period
last year.   Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2000, when
compared to the same period in 1999, increased 14.2% and diluted
net income per share increased 13.5%.  Excluding real estate sales
gains in each quarter, net income in the first quarter of 2000
increased 23.1% over the first quarter of 1999.

     The increased operating performance is attributed primarily to
the combination of the following factors:

          *An increase in net interest income on a tax equivalent
            basis of 10%
          *An increase in the core components of non-interest
            income of 5.6%
          *A decrease in other operating expenses of 0.5%

These factors are discussed in more detail below.

Net Interest Income

     Net interest income is the difference between interest earned
on earning assets and interest expensed on interest bearing
liabilities.  The net interest spread is the difference between the
average rate of interest earned on earning assets and the average
rate of interest expensed on interest bearing liabilities.  The
interest margin is tax equivalent net interest income divided by
average earning assets.  The following table summarizes the above
for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999.

Average interest bearing liabilities            $1,249,991   $1,195,416


     Tax equivalent net interest income increased $1.575 million or
approximately 10% for the three months ended March 31, 2000,
compared to the first quarter in 1999.  The increased net interest
income is attributed primarily to increased earning asset volume
between these periods. Increased interest rates did not have a
significant impact on the change in net interest income between
these quarters.  Average earning assets increased $81 million or
5.4% in the first quarter of 2000 compared to the first quarter of
1999, with 32% of this increase supported by increases in non-
interest bearing sources of funds.  The net interest margin
increased 13 basis points during the first quarter of 2000 compared
to the first quarter in 1999, and was favorably impacted by the
increase in non-interest bearing sources of funds.  The net
interest spread increased 2 basis points as the average rate on
earning assets increased 34 basis points while the costs of
interest bearing liabilities increased 32 basis points.  The
average prime rate in the first quarter of 2000 was 8.68%, an
increase of 93 basis points from the first quarter of 1999.

Allowance for Loan Losses and Provision for Loan Losses

     The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level
adequate to absorb estimated probable credit losses.  Management
determines the adequacy of the allowance based upon reviews of
individual credits, evaluation of the risk characteristics of each
segment of the loan portfolio, including the impact of current
economic conditions on the borrowers' ability to repay, past
collection and loss experience and such other factors, which, in
management's judgment, deserve current recognition.  Based on this
process, the allowance for loan losses was considered adequate at
March 31, 2000.

     The allowance for loan losses was $9,876,000 on March 31,
2000, and was 0.94% of loans outstanding and 230% of non-performing
loans.  At December 31, 1999, the allowance for loan losses was
$9,854,000 and was 0.93% of loans and 212% of non-performing loans.
 Net loans charged-off in the first quarter of 2000 were $553,000,
compared to $230,000 in the first quarter of 1999.  Loan charge-
offs related to the Company's indirect automobile lending
activities aggregated $516,000 in the first quarter of 2000,
compared to $191,000 in the first quarter of 1999. The provision
for loan losses in the first quarter of 2000 was $575,000, compared
to $281,000 in the first quarter of 1999.  The increase in the
provision for loan losses related to the increased level of
charged-offs loans.  See Non-Performing Loans and Assets on page 15.

     An analysis of the changes in the allowance for loan losses
and selected ratios follows:

     Non-interest income in the first quarter of 2000 includes
$285,000 of gains on real estate sales, primarily a gain on the
sale of a former branch, while non-interest income in the first
quarter of 1999 includes $841,000 of gains on other real estate
sales.  Excluding these gains, non-interest income in the first
quarter of 2000 increased $218,000, or 5.6%, over the first quarter
of 1999.  Income from the Trust Department increased $155,000, or
23%, as a result of the increased level of assets under management
since the first quarter of 1999.  Deposit service charges increased
$169,000, or 12%, primarily as a result of increased service charge
rates and other changes in deposit account parameters implemented
in the third quarter of 1999.  Service charges on dormant gift
certificates caused a $228,000 increase in gift certificate income
over the first quarter of 1999.  Processing fees for services
provided to the purchaser of the former money order subsidiary,
which were phased out in the third quarter of 1999, declined
$180,000.

     Other operating expenses of $11.8 million decreased $56,000,
or 0.5%.  Salaries and benefits in the first quarter of 2000 were
relatively unchanged from the first quarter of 1999.  The impact of
normal salary increases since the first quarter of 1999 was offset
by lower staffing levels. Staffing levels averaged 578 full-time
equivalent (FTE) employees in the first quarter of 2000, compared
with 621 in the first quarter of 1999.  The decrease in personnel
levels is attributed to normal attrition and the Company expects
staffing levels to return to approximately 600 FTE during next two
quarters.  A significant portion of the open positions are in the
very competitive market for clerical and teller personnel.
Equipment expenses declined $27,000, or 2%, in the first quarter of
2000 compared to the first quarter of 1999.  Equipment expenses are
expected to increase later in the year as several new initiatives,
including internet banking, ATM upgrades and check imaging, are
implemented.  These projects are projected to increase 2000
equipment expenses by approximately $200,000.  Occupancy expenses
increased $72,000, or 9%, in the first quarter of 2000 compared to
the first quarter of 1999.  Other operating expenses reflect
reductions in legal and professional fees, advertising and
marketing, and other real estate expenses of $111,000, $43,000 and
$125,000, respectively.

Income Taxes

     The Company had income tax expense of $2,611,000 for the first
quarter of 2000 compared to $2,367,000 for the same period in 1999,
which yielded effective tax rates of 28.9% for 2000 and 29.6% for
1999.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

     Average assets were $1.655 billion for the first quarter of
2000, an increase of $77 million or 4.9% compared to the last
quarter of 1999.  Actual total assets decreased approximately $107
million from December 31, 1999 to March 31, 2000.  The decline in
actual assets from December 31, 1999, is not unusual considering
the seasonally high gift certificates outstanding and securities
sold under agreements to repurchase at year-end.  Included in the
increase in average earning assets are increases in average loans
of $5 million , and increases in average securities of $73 million.
 The average earning asset growth was funded by an $16 million
increase in average deposit balances, a $17 million increase in
average gift certificates outstanding and a $47 million increase in
average customer repurchase agreements and federal funds purchased.

     Loans classified as impaired at March 31, 2000, aggregated
$4.4 million and included $2.1 million of indirect automobile loans
past due 45 days or more and all non-accrual and restructured
loans.  At December 31, 1999, impaired loans aggregated $5.0
million and included $2.6 million of past due indirect automobile
loans.

     As of March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the Company had
$12.0 million and $16.7 million, respectively, of loans which were
not included in the past due, non-accrual or restructured
categories, but for which known information about possible credit
problems caused management to have doubts as to the ability of the
borrowers to comply with the present loan repayment terms.  Based
on management's evaluation, including current market conditions,
cash flow generated and appraisals, no significant losses are
anticipated in connection with these loans.  These loans are
subject to continuing management attention and are considered in
determining the level of the allowance for loan losses.

     Management continually monitors lending and underwriting
activity and adjusts lending policies to respond to changes in
market conditions and risks.  Recent policy revisions related to
indirect automobile lending, combined with changes in market
conditions, resulted in reduced indirect origination activity
during the first quarter of 2000.  Since December 31, 1999,
indirect automobile loans have declined from $103 million to $99
million.

     The Company considers the level of nonperforming loans in its
evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.  See
Allowance for Loan Losses and Provision for Loan Losses on page 12.

     Other real estate aggregated $9.5 million at March 31, 2000
and was principally comprised of properties acquired in settlement
of real estate development loans in 1996, and a completed
condominium project acquired in settlement of loans in November
1997.  The carrying value of real estate development property has
been substantially reduced through sales from an original carrying
value of $15.2 million in 1996 to $1.7 million at March 31, 2000.
 The Company has 15 acres of commercial property remaining.  The
Company has contracts for additional property sales that are
expected to further reduce carrying value in the second quarter of
2000 by approximately $200,000.  The condominium project, which had
35 unsold units at the time of acquisition, now involves 30
completed and readily marketable units and 7.5 acres of adjacent
developed land.  This riverfront development had a carrying value
of $7.4 million on March 31, 2000.  Sales efforts, under a new
listing agreement entered into during the first quarter of 2000,
are expected to intensify during the second and third quarter of
2000.


LIQUIDITY

     Liquidity represents the Company's ability to generate cash or
otherwise obtain funds at a reasonable price to satisfy commitments
to borrowers as well as demands of depositors.  The loan and
securities portfolios are managed to provide liquidity through
maturity or payments related to such assets.

     The parent Company's liquidity depends primarily on the
dividends paid to it as the sole shareholder of Bank of Louisville.
 There were no dividends paid by the Bank to the Company during
that first quarter of 2000.

CAPITAL   RESOURCES

     At March 31, 2000, shareholders' equity totaled $182.9
million, an increase of $4.3 million since December 31, 1999.  Net
income of $6.4 million after cash dividends of $2.5 million
provided $3.9 million of the increase.  Proceeds and tax benefits
from stock options exercised added $461,000 to shareholders' equity
in the first quarter of 2000.

     The Company's capital ratios exceed minimum regulatory
requirements and are as follows:


                                 Company    Company
                                 March 31,  December 31, Minimum

Total risk based capital ratio       15.9%      15.2%     8.00%

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     The Company's March 31, 2000 analysis of the impact of changes
in interest rates on net interest income over the next 12 months
indicates an increasing exposure to lower interest rates since
December 31, 1999, which, in part, is attributed to matured or
maturing interest rate swap contracts.  The table below illustrates
the simulation analysis of the impact of a 50 or 100 basis point
upward or downward movement in interest rates.  The impact of the
rate movement was simulated as if rates changed immediately from
March 31, 2000 levels, and remained constant at those levels
thereafter.  Management continually evaluates this data and could
make adjustments to the asset and liability structure and/or
pricing policies in the future to minimize the actual impact of
rate changes.
