Independent Auditors' Report
_________________
The Trustees
BancFlorida Financial Corporation
Employee Thrift Plan:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available
for benefits of BancFlorida Financial Corporation Employee Thrift Plan
as of September 30, 1993 and 1992, and the related statements of
changes in net assets available for benefits for each of the years in the
three-year period ended September 30, 1993. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of
BancFlorida Financial Corporation Employee Thrift Plan at
September 30, 1993 and 1992, and the changes in net assets available
for benefits for each of the years in the three-year period ended
September 30, 1993, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of
reportable transactions and assets held for investment are presented
for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the
basic financial statements, but are supplementary information required
by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and
Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to
the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

BANCFLORIDA FINANCIAL CORPORATION
EMPLOYEE THRIFT PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 1993 and 1992
(1) Accounting Principles
The accounts of the BancFlorida Financial Corporation Employee Thrift Plan
(Plan) are maintained on an accrual basis. Assets of the Plan are valued at
current market value.
(a) Investment in Securities
All investments in securities are comprised of BancFlorida Financial
Corporation (BFL or BancFlorida) common stock which is traded on a
national securities exchange. The shares are valued at average cost in
determining the cost of securities sold and reported at market value at
September 30, 1993 and 1992.
(b) Expenses
All expenses are paid by the Plan.
(2) Description of Plan
The following is a general description of the Plan and provides only
general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement
for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.
(a) General
The Plan which was effective July 1, 1983, is a defined contribution
plan covering substantially all full-time employees of BFL and its
subsidiaries which have adopted the plan who have one year of service.
It is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
(b) Contributions
An employee becomes a participant by electing to contribute a
minimum of 2% to a maximum of 5% of gross pay on a pre-tax basis to
the Plan. Each year, BFL has the option to contribute an amount not in
excess of the amount of contributions by each of its participating
employees, but in no event greater than 5% of each such individual
employee's compensation for the Plan year.
(c) Participant Accounts
Effective October 1, 1985, the Plan was amended to allow participants
to invest in one or both of the following funds:
(bullet) Short-Term Fund - interest-bearing, short-term investments
(bullet) Common Stock Fund - common stock of BancFlorida Financial
Corporation
(Continued)
<PAGE>

BANCFLORIDA FINANCIAL CORPORATION
EMPLOYEE THRIFT PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
Effective October 1, 1990, the Plan was amended to allow the employer
matching contribution to be invested in the same proportion as the
employees allocate their contribution.
Effective April 1, 1992, the Plan was amended to allow participants to
invest in one or both of the following additional funds:
(bullet) Growth/Value Fund
(bullet) Intermediate Bond Fund
Each participant's account is credited with the participant's
contribution and an allocation of (a) the Company's contribution, (b)
plan earnings, and (c) forfeitures of terminated participants' nonvested
accounts. Allocations are based on participant contributions or account
balances, as defined. At September 30, 1993, there were 440
participants in the Plan.
Employee contributions invested in the Short-Term Fund and Common
Stock Fund earned an average rate of return or (declined) approximately
3% and 145%, respectively, for the year ended September 30, 1993;
approximately 5% and 173%, respectively, for the year ended September
30, 1992; and approximately 7% and (22)%, respectively, for the year
ended September 30, 1991.
Employee contributions invested in the Growth/Value Fund and the
Intermediate Bond Fund earned a rate of return of approximately 15%
and 11%, respectively, for the year ended September 30, 1993; and
approximately 2% and 3%, respectively, for the year ended September
30, 1992.
(d) Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in their voluntary contributions
plus actual earnings thereon. Vesting in the remainder of their
accounts is based on years of service. A participant is 100% vested
after five years of credited service. Aggregate forfeitures amount to
1,402 and 1,214 shares of BancFlorida Financial Corporation common
stock for the years ended September 30, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
(e) Payment of Benefits
On termination of service, a participant may elect to receive a lump-
sum distribution equal to the vested value of their account or if the
participant's vested interest is more than $3,700, the participant may
elect to receive the lump-sum distribution at the end of the Plan year
following their sixty-fifth birthday. In the event a participant dies
prior to commencement of their distribution, their vested interest will
be distributed to their beneficiary.
A participant may withdraw an amount not in excess of their account
balance derived from their contributions at any time on one month's
notice solely for the purpose of (i) making a down payment on a
principal residence, (ii) paying college expenses for their family
member, or (iii) paying unreimbursed medical or dental expenses. The
Administrator determines whether to allow such financial hardship
withdrawals on a uniform and nondiscriminatory basis.

(f) Trustee
Thrift Plan assets are held in a trust and are invested by the trustee,
National Bank of Detroit, Trust Division.
(g) Termination Provision
BancFlorida expects to continue this Plan indefinitely, but is not
contractually obligated to do so. Although it has not expressed any
intent to do so, BancFlorida has the right under the Plan to discontinue
its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the
provisions of ERISA. In the event of plan termination, participants will
become 100% vested in their accounts, and any unallocated funds will
be allocated among all participants on the same basis as BancFlorida
contributions.
(h) Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the 1992 and 1991 financial statements have been
reclassified so as to conform to the 1993 presentation.
(3) Income Tax Status
BancFlorida Financial Corporation Employee Thrift Plan has received a
determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service substantiating that
the Plan qualifies under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and the
trust is exempt under Section 501(a); as such, the Plan is exempt from
federal income tax, and amounts contributed by BancFlorida, F.S.B., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of BFL, are not taxed to the employee until a
distribution from the Plan is received.
(4) Short-Term Investments
The fair value of the short-term investments which are held in trust and
which are administered by the trustee are as follows:
Fair Value
Investment account 1993 1992
Cash $ 484 --
NBD Short-Term Investment Fund for
Employee Benefit Plans 1,074,731 1,188,204
Woodward Growth/Value Fund 527,865 32,059

Notes to Financial Statements
(5) Transfer from Related Trust
During 1993, participants of the Plan who also participate in another
benefit trust of BFL were allowed to transfer plan assets from the related
trust to the Plan. The plan assets of the related trust were transferred to
the Plan at their fair value at the date of transfer.
(6) Reconciliation to IRS Form 5500
The following represents a reconciliation of net assets as reported on IRS
Form 5500 to that presented in the accompanying financial statements:
1993 1992
Net assets per IRS Form 5500 $ 5,772,407 2,889,400
Benefits payable -- 158,537
Net assets per accompanying
financial statements $ 5,772,407 3,047,937
As mentioned in note 2(h), during 1993, the Plan has classified benefits
payable to individuals separated from service as a component of net assets
available for plan benefits. Consequently, corresponding amounts in the
previously issued 1992 and 1991 financial statements have been
reclassified so to conform with current year presentations.
(7) Subsequent Event
On January 17, 1994, BFL entered into an agreement and plan of merger with
First Union Corporation. The agreement and plan of merger provides for the
merger of BFL into the First Union National Bank of Florida. The effect on
the Plan of this agreement and plan of merger is unknown at this time.
With regulatory approval of the agreement and plan of merger, the plan
assets of the Plan will be transferred to the plan assets of the First Union
Savings Plan. The plan assets of the plan will be transferred at their fair
value at the date of transfer.

Exchange Act of 1934, the trustees (or other persons who
