The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for
the interim periods do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles.
However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary
for a fair presentation have been included, and such adjustments
were of a normal recurring nature.
Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 1996 are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
1996.

for the year ended December 31, 1995, as contained in the Annual
Report to Shareholders.
<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The purpose of this review is to provide additional information
necessary to fully understand the consolidated financial condition
and results of operations of Keystone Financial, Inc. (Keystone).
Throughout this review, net interest income and the yield on
earning assets are stated on a fully taxable-equivalent basis. In
addition, balances represent daily average balances, unless
otherwise indicated.
SUMMARY
Keystone's performance results for the second quarter of 1996 continued to
reflect the benefit of performance-enhancing strategic initiatives. Net
income grew to $17,733,000 for the quarter versus $15,021,000 in the
comparable period of 1995. On an earnings-per-share basis, net income
grew from $0.64 in the second quarter of 1995 to $0.70 in 1996, an increase
of 9%. Second quarter results produced a return on average assets of 1.43%
and a return on average equity of 14.60%, compared to 1.28% and 14.02% in
the same period of 1995.
Performance for the six months ended June 30, 1996 exhibited
similar improvement as net income and earnings-per-share rose to
$34,590,000 and $1.37 in 1996, compared to $29,677,000 and $1.27
in 1995, an increase in earnings-per-share of 8%. Return on
average assets and return on average equity grew to 1.39% and
14.31%, respectively, for the first six months of the year.
Revenue performance in 1996 continued to be influenced by
strategies designed to transform the revenue stream through the
expansion of fee-based activities combined with prudent management
of net interest income. Growth rates in earning assets and net
interest income were influenced by both these strategic initiatives
and by the favorable impact of loans and deposits added from merger
activity in the fourth quarter of 1995.
Second quarter net interest income grew 7% from the same quarter
of 1995 as earning assets added in the fourth quarter mergers and
the growth in relationship-focused loan and deposit products
contributed to improved performance. Net interest margin remained
relatively stable at 4.56% compared to 4.51% in the second quarter
of 1995.
Noninterest income exhibited substantial growth as revenues rose
20% during the second quarter. Performance is being influenced by
expanded investment management fees attributable to the acquisition
of Martindale Andres & Company and by continuing strength from
mortgage banking activities through the Keystone Financial Mortgage
Company. Additionally, Keystone completed its second securiti-zation of
indirect loans originated through the Keystone Dealer Finance Center,
which provides Keystone with an expanded loan servicing revenue stream.
<PAGE>
Relative levels of noninterest expenses declined during the quarter
as the efficiency ratio, or the ratio of noninterest expenses to
revenues, declined from 60.02% in the second quarter of 1995 to
57.73% in 1996. The growth rate in expenses of 5% in the second
quarter was influenced primarily by expenses added from the banks
merged in late 1995.
National delinquency trends, particularly consumer delinquencies,
have raised concern within the banking industry. Keystone closely
monitors its credit quality trends, which have been a traditional
source of strength. The second quarter included increases in risk
elements, including loans 90-days past due and other less severe
delinquent categories. Keystone's allowance for credit losses is
established at a level considerate of these credit delinquency
trends and continues to reflect appropriate coverage of loss. The
allowance was stable at 1.30% of loans.

</TABLE>
Balance sheet growth rates continued to be affected by lower levels
of deposit growth as well as the impact of loan securitization of
both consumer mortgages and indirect loans. While year-to-date
loan and deposit growth rates reached 4% and 5%, respectively,
approximately half of this growth was related to loans and deposits
acquired in the mergers completed in late 1995. Core loan growth
has occurred principally in consumer lending and automobile leasing
and is reflective of Keystone's focus on relationship banking. On
the funding side, the popularity of the variable rate CD continues
to influence deposit trends.

</TABLE>
Keystone's primary source of revenue is net interest income, which
represents the difference between interest income on earning assets
and interest expense on deposits and other borrowed funds. Higher
interest rates influenced competitive pressures on core funding
sources while earning asset yields reflected little change from
1995.
Interest income grew by 6% despite the fact that overall asset
yields showed only a modest change from 8.21% in 1995 to 8.18% for
the six months ended June 30, 1996. The growth in interest income
was attributable primarily to overall growth in both loans and
earning assets, including those loans added in the late 1995
mergers. Loan growth continues to occur in consumer credit
principally in the area of home equity loans and automobile loans
and leases.
Funding costs grew slightly as the cost of funds increased from
4.34% in the first six months of 1995 to 4.36% in the first half of
1996. The growth in interest expense on funding sources, which was
approximately 6%, was similar to the growth achieved in interest
income and was influenced by two major trends. Deposits added in
the late 1995 mergers accounted for the majority of the 5% increase
in deposit volumes between 1996 and 1995. The composition of
deposits has also experienced changes due to the disintermediation
in the form of consumer preference for the variable rate CDs and
reductions in both savings and transaction accounts.
As a result of the growth in the balance sheet attributable to both
the mergers and core growth, net interest income grew $6,053,000,
or 6%, during the period ended June 30, 1996. Net interest spread,
or the difference between earning asset yield and the cost of funds
declined only slightly and was substantially offset by the positive
<PAGE>
impact of noninterest funding sources. Accordingly, net interest
margin remained relatively constant at 4.56% compared to 4.57% in
1995.
NONINTEREST INCOME
The most significant improvement in earnings performance occurred
in noninterest income. Keystone has undertaken a number of
strategic initiatives designed to increase the relative revenue
contributions of fee-based activities and services. These
strategies, which included the late 1995 acquisition of Martindale
Andres and Company and the expansion of mortgage banking activities
through its KFMC subsidiary, have been driven by Keystone's efforts
to become a more diversified financial services company.
Trust and investment advisory revenues grew 17% from $6,355,000 for
the first six months of 1995, to $7,407,000 for the first half of
1996. This increase is attributed to an increase in assets under
management which were $2.1 billion at June 30, 1995 and rose to
$2.6 billion at June 30, 1996. Mortgage banking income, which
includes both origination and mortgage servicing revenues, grew
nearly 22%. The growth in mortgage banking activity can be
measured by the increase in mortgage loans serviced for others"
which grew from $349,264,000 at the end of the second quarter of
1995 to $540,088,000 at June 30, 1996.
Keystone continues to see improvement in other forms of noninterest
revenue. Service charges grew from $6,450,000 at June 30, 1995 to
$7,151,000 at June 30, 1996, an increase of 11%. Other income,
which increased by $3,219,000, included the $2 million gain from
the sale of the credit card portfolio in the first quarter of 1996
as well as servicing income from Keystone's securitization of
indirect loans. During the second quarter of 1996, Keystone
completed its second securitization and now services $120,824,000
of securitized indirect loans. Keystone also continued to expand
its fee generation capacity through expanded merchant bank card
services and increased ATM fees.
NONINTEREST EXPENSES
Noninterest expenses reached $81,016,000 through June 30, 1996,
compared to $75,490,000 through the first half of 1995, an increase
of 7%. Nearly 55% of the increase in noninterest expenses of
$5,526,000 was attributable to the late 1995 mergers, implying core
growth in noninterest expenses of approximately 3-4%. Despite this
increase, Keystone's efficiency ratio, or the relationship of its
expense levels to revenue generation declined from 60.3% to 58.8%
and was primarily related to the third quarter, 1995 reduction in
FDIC insurance premiums.
Nearly 70% of the increase in total noninterest expenses was
related to increases in salary costs. Overall salary expenses grew
nearly 13% and included the impact of the annual merit increase of
4% and the salary costs associated with personnel added in the late
1995 mergers. These additional costs from merged banks accounted
for nearly half of the 13% growth in salary expenses. In addition
to personnel added through mergers and the merit increase, salary
expense was impacted by growth in overall employee levels, much of
<PAGE>
which was related to revenue expansion activities, including
mortgage banking. Total average full-time equivalent employees
rose to 2,440 for the first half of 1996 versus 2,310 in the same
period of 1995.
Benefit expenses grew substantially during the first half of 1996.
During the first half of 1995, Keystone had realized the benefits
of favorable claims experience in earlier periods which had reduced
benefit expenses below normalized levels. Expenses during the
first half of 1996 reflect more normalized activity and were also
affected by the growth in the level of full-time equivalent
employees.
Growth in both occupancy and equipment expenses was also related to
the cost of facilities and equipment added in the late 1995 mergers
and to Keystone's continuing investment in office reconfiguration
initiatives and continuing improvements to its delivery channels.
Keystone will continue to make investments in expanding its ability
to provide convenient customer delivery channels through
initiatives such as the Key Call Center and office reconfiguration.
The reduction in FDIC insurance premiums served to mitigate
increases in overall expenses as premiums declined $3,909,000
during 1996. The full funding of the Banking Insurance Fund has
precluded the need for additional premiums, though Congress
continues to debate the future of both the Savings Association
Insurance Fund (SAIF) and the Financing Corp. (FICO) bond issues.
Keystone, which has a small proportionate share of SAIF-insured
deposits, could be affected by congressional initiatives designed
to rescue SAIF or the FICO bond funding by expanding bank
participation in such efforts. Based on Keystone's current
understanding of recent proposals, such initiatives are not
expected to have a material impact on the operating results of
Keystone.
Other expenses were affected by increased marketing and merchant
card costs, both of which were associated with revenue expansion
efforts, as well as various nonrecurring expense accruals which
occurred in the first quarter of 1996.

ASSET QUALITY
Keystone's allowance for credit losses was virtually unchanged from
the end of 1995 at $44,271,000 compared to $44,377,000. The ratio
of the allowance to loans declined slightly from 1.32% at December
31, 1995, to 1.30% at June 30, 1996, while the ratio of annualized
net charge offs to loans remained relatively constant at .25% for
the first six months of 1996 versus .21% for all of 1995.
Keystone did experience a rise in the ratio of total risk elements
to loans from 1.22% at the end of 1995 to 1.32% at the end of the
first half of 1996. This increase was related principally to a
rise in the 90-day past due category, which grew to $19,475,000
from $14,995,000 at the end of 1995. This increase was
attributable to two major factors. Keystone has been affected by
many of the national trends influencing consumer delinquency which
contributed to the increase in 90-days past due and to increases in
less severe past-due loan categories such as 30-days past due and
60-days past due. Additionally, Keystone consolidated its
collection function during the first half of 1996 in order to
realize both cost efficiencies available through centralization and
the benefits associated with improved collection technology.
During this period, delinquency trends were affected by the initial
disruption normally associated with consolidation. Keystone
continues to monitor changes in its delinquency trends.

The following table has been provided to compare nonperforming
assets and total risk elements at June 30, 1996 to the balances
at the end of 1995, in both absolute dollars and as a percentage of

various coverage ratios.

Based upon the evaluation of loan quality, management believes that
the allowance for credit losses is adequate to absorb credit risk
in the portfolio.

SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
Shareholders' equity at June 30, 1996 was $491,317,000 and was
comparable to the capital base of $480,694,000 recorded at the end
of 1995. Retained earnings were offset by net unrealized losses of
$5,609,000 on investment securities held in the available for sale
category.
Keystone's regulatory capital measures, which include the leverage
ratio, "Tier 1" capital, and "Total" capital ratios, continued to
be well in excess of both regulatory minimums and the thresholds
established for "well capitalized" institutions. The following
comparative presentation of these ratios and associated regulatory
standards is provided:
