FIRST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The accompanying March 31, 1996 and 1995 consolidated financial statements
are unaudited. The December 31, 1995, consolidated statement of condition
amounts are as reported in the Corporation's 1995 annual report.
The significant accounting policies followed by First Financial Corporation
and its subsidiaries for interim financial reporting are consistent with the
accounting policies followed for annual financial reporting. All adjustments
which are in the opinion of management necessary for a fair statement of the
results for the periods reported have been included in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements and are of a normal recurring nature.
2. The Statements of Financial Standards No's 114 and 118 (SFAS 114),
"Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan" and "Accounting by
Creditors for Impairment of a Loan-Income Recognition and Disclosures"
requires that certain impaired loans be measured based either on the present
value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest
rate, or the loan's observable market price or the fair value of the
collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. The adoption of SFAS 114 did
not result in additional provisions for loan losses primarily because the
majority of impaired loan valuations continue to be based on the fair value of
collateral.
The provision for loan and lease losses charged to expense is based upon
each affiliate's past loan and lease loss experience and an evaluation of
potential losses in the current loan and lease portfolio, including the
evaluation of impaired loans under SFAS 114. A loan is considered to be
impaired when based upon current information and events, it is probable that
Corporation will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the
contractual terms of the loan. Impairments is primarily measured based on the
fair value of the loans' collateral. Impairment losses are included in the
provision for loan and lease losses. SFAS 114 does not apply to large groups of
smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for
impairment, except for those loans restructured under a troubled debt
restructuring. Loans collectively evaluated for impairment include
certain smaller balance commercial loans, consumer loans, residential real
estate loans, and credit card loans, and are not included in the data that
follows.
The following table summarizes impaired loan information.

Interest payments on impaired loans are typically applied to principal
unless collectability of the principal amount is fully assured, in which case
interest is recognized on the cash basis for certain troubled debt
restructuring which are included in the impaired loan data above.
Commercial loans and residential real estate loans are placed on
nonaccrual at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is
well secured and in the process of collection. Commercial loans are charged
off at the time the loan becomes 180 days delinquent unless the loan is well
secured and in the process of collection, or other extenuating circumstances
support collection. Credit card loans and other unsecured personal credit
lines are typically charged off no later than 180 days delinquent. Other
consumer loans are typically charged off at 150 days delinquent. In all cases,
loans must be placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if
collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.
The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash basis or cost
recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans maybe
returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts
contractually due are paid current.
3. The effect of adopting Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 122,
"Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights" was not material to the Corporation's
financial statement.

FIRST FINANCIAL CORPORATION
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
The purpose of the review is to point out key factors in First Financial's
recent performance, compared with earlier periods. The review should be read
in conjunction with the financial statements beginning on Page 3 of this
report. All figures are for the consolidated entities. It is presumed the
readers of these financial statements and the following narrative have
previously read the Corporation's annual report for 1995.
Summary of Operating Results
Net income for current quarter of $4,002,000 was 47% greater than the
first quarter of 1995. Earnings per share increased to $.70 from $.47 for the
same period of 1995 which represents a record first quarter earnings.
Net Interest Income
First Financial Corporation's primary source of earnings is net interest
income, which is the difference between the interest earned on loans and
other investments and the interest incurred for deposits and other sources of
funds. In the first three months of 1996 net interest income increased
$1,930,000 or 16.6% as compared to the same period of 1995. The net interest
margin for the quarter increased from 4.17% in 1995 to 4.37% in 1996. This
increase was the result of continued growth in earning assets.
Other Income
Other income for the three month period ending March 31, 1996, as compared
to the same period of 1995 increased $164,000 or 9.8%. Contributing to the
increase were the increase of trust department income of $75,000 or 23.8%,
and other miscellaneous income of $31,000 or 10.7%.
Other Expenses
Other expenses for the first three months of 1996, as compared to the same
period of 1995, remained almost unchanged. Although the employee benefits
and occupancy expense increased by $192,000 and $174,000 respectably for the
first quarter of 1996 compared to the same period a year earlier, these
increases were offset by the favorable FDIC insurance adjustment which decreased
by $538,000 or 99%.
Allowance for Possible Loan Losses
The Corporation's provision for possible loan losses totaled $630,000 for
the first three months of 1996 compared to $540,000 in the same period a year
earlier.
At March 31, 1996, the allowance for possible loan losses was 1.24% of
total loans, net of unearned income. This compares with an allowance of
1.22% at December 31, 1995. Net chargeoffs for the first three months of
1996 were $755,000 compared to $311,000 for the same period of 1995. The
ratio of net chargeoffs to average loans outstanding for the last five years
ended December 31, 1995, was .34%. With this experience and based on
management's review of the portfolio, management believes the allowance of
$9,958,000 at March 31, 1996 is adequate.
8 <PAGE>
Underperforming Assets
The following is a listing of all categories of non-performing assets
which includes potential problem loans at March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995.
3-31-96 12-31-95
Nonaccrual Loans $ 2,558 $2,782
Restructured Loans 0 185
$ 2,558 $2,967
Past due
> 90 days $ 6,860 $5,809
Land sold on contract 1,289 1,218
Total non-performing asset $10,707 $9,994
The ratio of the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of
non-performing loans was 105% at March 31, 1996 which represents an decrease
of 9% from December 31, 1995. This decrease is the result of an increase in
the amount of loans past due 90 days or more amounting to $1,051,000 or 18%.
There was no one significant factor which affected this increase but on a
consolidated basis each category of loans increased a small amount.
The following loan categories comprise significant components of the
non-performing loans at March 31, 1996:
Non-Accrual Loans
1. 1-4 family residential: $306 thousand or 12% of non-accrual loans
2. Commercial loans: $1.1 million or 44% of non-accrual loans
3. Non farm nonresidential
properties: $791 thousand or 31% of non-accrual loans
Past due > 90 days
1. 1-4 family residential: $2.2 million or 33% of past due loans
2. Commercial loans: $3.1 million or 45% of past due loans
3. Non farm nonresidential properties: $731 thousand or 11% of past due loans
There are no material industry concentrations within the non-performing
loans.
In addition to the above under-performing loans, certain loans are felt by
management to be impaired for reasons other than the current repayment
status. Such reasons may include but not be limited to previous payment
history, bankruptcy proceedings, industry concerns, or information related to
a specific borrower that may result in a negative future event to that borrower.
The Corporation had $2.1 million of doubtful loans which are still in accrual
status.
9 <PAGE>
Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity
The Corporation's objective in liquidity management is to manage the
assets and liabilities to meet the needs of borrowers while allowing for the
possibility of deposit withdrawals.
Part of the strategy in maintaining a satisfactory level of liquidity is to
structure a maturity schedule for the investment and loan portfolios that
will allow for fluctuations in the availability of funds. Within the next
twelve months $87,838,000 of investments will mature, which represents 16.9%
of the investment portfolio. Investments with maturities of one to five years
comprise an additional 38.6% of the investment portfolio.
The investment maturities along with the normal run-off of loans coupled
with a large supply of unpledged securities for repurchase agreements,
federal funds purchased, additional negotiable certificates of deposits, and
other available borrowings affords the Corporation flexibility in funding
loan growth and meeting other market opportunities as they present themselves.
During the next twelve months the Corporation will either reprice or
mature a total of $522,271,000 of assets. In this same period a total of
$547,101,000 of liabilities will either be repriced or mature. Thus, the
ratio of rate sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities as measured on a
static basis, is 97% as March 31, 1996. The Corporation will continue to
monitor this relationship to determine if it is appropriate in maintaining a
satisfactory level of net interest margin, while also considering interest
rate sensitivity.
Capital Adequacy
As of March 31, 1996 the Corporation leverage ratio was 9.10% which
compared 9.30% at December 31, 1995.
At March 31, 1996, the Corporation's total capital which includes Tier II
capital was 16.19% compared to 15.58% at December 31, 1995.
