Management's Discussion and Analysis
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Corporation functions as a financial intermediary, therefore trends in its
sources and uses of funds should be examined when reviewing financial condition.
The primary reason for the increased profitability is the additional income
generated from the significant loan growth that occurred in the second half of
1996 and the early part of 1997. It is important to note that credit quality
standards were not compromised to achieve this growth, which is evidenced by a
16.3% decrease in non-performing loans since June 30, 1996.
LOANS RECEIVABLE
Net loans increased $11,998,000 or 5.83% first the first half of 1997 to
$217,640,000. The increase in loans was directly attributable to increased
marketing efforts, favorable economic conditions in our market area, and
competitive pricing. Management expects this trend to continue throughout the
second half of 1997 providing that the economic environment remains relatively
stable.
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
Changes in the allowance for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 1997
and 1996 were as follows (in 000's):

first week of July.
As of June 30, 1997 and 1996, management has identified $391,000 and $403,000,
respectively, in loans that are considered potential problem loans. A
potential problem loan is any loan specifically identified in management's
reserve analysis that is not included in the above table.

=========== ===========
</TABLE>
The provision for loan losses was $90,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997
and 1996. Management monitors the credit quality of its portfolio on an ongoing
basis to determine sufficient levels of reserve. The process includes an
evaluation of the Bank's past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in
the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to
repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan
portfolio, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors. As of June
30, 1997, management believes the current level of the allowance is adequate,
and anticipates future provisions for loan losses will be consistent with 1996
levels. The allowance for loan losses was 1.43% and 1.75% of net loans
outstanding at June 30, 1997 and 1996. The allowance for loan losses to
nonperforming loans was 144.85% and 126.34% at June 30, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.
SECURITIES
The securities portfolio decreased $2,240,000 or 1.95% compared to the
December 31, 1996 ending balance of $114,682,000. The proceeds from the
maturities and principal repayments has primarily been used to fund loan growth.
DEPOSITS
The Corporation was able the maintain stable deposit levels throughout the first
half of 1997. Total deposits increased $3,339,000 or 1.31% to $257,583,000 as
of June 30, 1997 compared to December 31, 1996. During the same period last
year deposits increased $1,760,000 or .70%.
BORROWINGS
Federal Home Loan Bank term funds borrowed increased $5,000,000 or 16.98%
compared to December 31, 1996 of $29,450,000. This increase was primarily due
to fund increased loan demand as deposit growth and security repayments were not
sufficient to cover the increase in loan volume. Borrowings from the FHLB have
provided an alternative source of funds at a lower cost then paying premium
rates to attract deposits that would be deemed volatile in nature.
LIQUIDITY
The Corporation maintains liquidity through its available for sale securities
portfolio, which management considers extremely liquid. The liquidity of this
portfolio, the Bank's core deposits, credit facilities which have been arranged
through the Federal Home Loan Bank and potential repurchase agreements with a
major investment firm provide the Corporation with funds necessary to meet loan
demand or deposit run-off.

<PAGE>
CAPITAL
The Corporation is required to maintain minimum amounts of capital to total
"risk-weighted" assets, as defined by the banking regulators. At June 30, 1997,
the Corporation is required to have minimum Tier 1 and total capital ratios of
4.00% and 8.00%, respectively. The Corporation's actual ratios at that date
were 18.41% and 19.67%, respectively, which significantly exceed the
requirements. The Corporation's leverage ratio at June 30, 1997 was 11.72%.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net income for the second quarter of 1997 was $1,351,000 ($.28 per share)
compared to $1,231,000 ($.26 per share) in 1996, a 9.75% increase. Earnings for
the six month period ended June 30, 1997 were $2,683,000 ($.56 per share), a
11.24 % increase over 1996 results of $2,412,000 ($.50 per share). The primary
reason for the increased profitability is the additional income generated from
the significant loan growth throughout 1996 and during the first half of 1997.
Increases in overhead expenses were for outside consulting engagements designed
to increase the profitability levels of all income producing departments within
the Corporation. These costs were offset by increases in trust fees, other
income and security gains.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income was $4,034,000 and $7,998,000 for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $297,000 or 7.95% and $630,000 or 8.55%,
over the same period in 1996. The increase in interest income was primarily due
an average increase in net loan volume of $33,976,000 or 19.2%. This increase
resulted in $1,436,000 in additional interest income. Average investments also
increased $3,882,000 in addition to a 14 basis point increase in the yield,
resulting in $138,000 in additional interest income for the six months ended
June 30, 1997. Average borrowings, used to fund loan demand, increased
$39,192,000 which resulted in an increase in interest expense of $1,080,000.
The Corporation was able to benefit from a decrease in rate on these borrowed
funds by 16 basis points resulting in a $44,000 decrease in expense. Average
deposits decreased $4,631,000 resulting in a decrease in interest expense of
$92,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997.
OTHER INCOME
Other income increased $64,000 or 14.00%, for the three months ended June 30,
1997 and $282,000 or 29.87% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 compared to
the respective periods in 1996. Trust department income increased $56,000 or
13.30%, for the six months ended June 30, 1997. The majority of the increase is
the result of an increase in trust assets under management this year versus the
same period last year.
The "other" category increased $46,000 or 43.81% and $54,000 or 26.34% for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1997. The majority of the increase relates
to an increase in gains from the sale of loans to Freddie Mac in addition to
increased commissions on the sale of insurance on mortgage and installment
loans. Also contributing to the increase is fee income from our debit card
program which was introduced during the fourth quarter of 1996.
Security gains increased $8,000 and $141,000 or 100% for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1997. The majority of the gains was the result of a sale
of stock of another financial Corporation that was purchased by a foreign
company.

<PAGE>
OTHER EXPENSES
Other expenses were $2,585,000 and $5,332,000 for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1997, an increase of $170,000 or 7.04% and $507,000 or 10.51%, over
the respective period in 1996.
Salaries and employee benefits increased $97,000 or 7.84% and $191,000 or 7.79%
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997, compared to the respective
periods in 1996. This is due to normal annual salary increases and an increase
in the accrual for employee performance compensation of $87,000 which is based
on projected increase in earnings this year compared to last year.
Professional fees and other outside services increased $6,000 or 2.33% and
$168,000 or 36.84%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997 compared to
1996. For the three months ended June 30, 1997 expenses are comparable to the
respective period in 1996. The year-to-date increase over 1996 relates to the
utilization of outside consultants for the reorganization of various
departments. This is in an effort to increase the operating efficiencies and
overall profitability in these areas.
The "other" category increased $17,000 or 8.21% and $83,000 or 19.44% for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1997 compared to the same period in 1996.
The majority of the increase for the three and six months ended June 30, 1997
relates to loan and collection expense. Year-to-date this category increased
$42,000 primarily due to the write-down of ORE assets. Also, directors fees
increased $31,000 due to implementation of a retainer fee during the first
quarter of 1997.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The provision for federal income taxes was $574,000 and $1,119,000 for the three
and six months ended June 30, 1997 which represents an increase of $71,000 or
14.12% and $134,000 or 13.60% over the June 30, 1996 respective periods. This
variance is due to increased earnings in 1997. Effective tax rates were 29.43%
and 29.00% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.
