         Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note A     Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

           The unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements of SJNB  Financial
           Corp. (the "Company") and its subsidiary, San Jose National Bank, are
           prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles
           for interim  financial  information and with the instructions to Form
           10-Q. In the opinion of management,  all adjustments  necessary for a
           fair  presentation of the financial  position,  results of operations
           and cash flows for the periods have been  included and are normal and
           recurring.   The  results  of  operations  and  cash  flows  are  not
           necessarily indicative of those expected for the full fiscal year.

           Certain  information and footnote  disclosures  normally  included in
           consolidated   financial   statements  prepared  in  accordance  with
           generally  accepted  accounting  principles  have been  condensed  or
           omitted.  These condensed consolidated financial statements should be
           read in conjunction  with the consolidated  financial  statements and
           notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report to Shareholders
           for the year ended December 31, 1996.

Note B     Net Income Per Share of Common Stock

           The weighted  average  number of common stock shares and common stock
           equivalent  shares used in  computing  net income per share of common
           stock are set forth below for the periods indicated:

            Weighted average number of shares
              outstanding during the period   2,487    2,487     2,513     2,455
            Common stock equivalents            150      161       149       178

            ====================================================================

           Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 128,  Earnings per
           Share,  was issued in February 1997 ("SFAS No. 128") and is effective
           for years ending after December 15, 1997. The Statement specifies the
           computation,  presentation  and disclosure  requirements for earnings
           per share  ("EPS").  This  Statement's  objective  is to simplify the
           computation  of earnings per share and to make the U.S.  standard for
           computing EPS more  compatible  with the standards of other countries
           and with that of the International  Accounting  Standards  Committee.
           Under this  approach,  EPS is to be  calculated  and  reported as two
           separate  calculations:  Basic EPS,  similar to the previous  primary
           earnings per share excluding  common stock  equivalents;  and Diluted
           EPS,  similar  to the  previous  fully  diluted  earnings  per share.
           Earnings per share as calculated under the provisions of SFAS No. 128
           for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 is as
           follows:

Note C     Other Recent Accounting Pronouncements

           In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting  Comprehensive
           Income."  This  Statement  establishes  standards  for  reporting and
           displaying   comprehensive   income   and  its   components   in  the
           consolidated  financial  statement.  It does not, however,  require a
           specific  format  for the  statement,  but  requires  the  Company to
           display an amount  representing  total  comprehensive  income for the
           period in that financial statement.  The Company is in the process of
           determining  its preferred  format.  This  Statement is effective for
           fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.

           Also in June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131,  "Disclosures  about
           Segments of an  Enterprise  and Related  Information."  The Statement
           establishes  standards for the way public business enterprises are to
           report  information  about  operating  segments  in annual  financial
           statements  and  requires  those   enterprises  to  report   selected
           information  about operating  segments in interim  financial  reports
           issued to  shareholders.  This  Statement is effective  for financial
           statements for periods beginning after December 31, 1997. The Company
           does not believe it has any separately reportable business segments.

OF OPERATIONS

SJNB  Financial  Corp.  (the  "Company")  is the  holding  company  for San Jose
National Bank ("SJNB" and the "Bank"),  San Jose,  California.  This  discussion
focuses  primarily on the results of operations of the Company on a consolidated
basis for the three and nine months ended  September  30, 1997 and the liquidity
and  financial  condition of the Company and SJNB as of  September  30, 1997 and
December 31, 1996.

All  dollar  amounts  in the text in Item 2 are in  thousands,  except per share
amounts or as otherwise indicated.

Certain matters discussed in this report are forward-looking statements that are
subject to risks and  uncertainties  that could cause  actual  results to differ
materially from those projected in the  forward-looking  statements.  Such risks
and uncertainties  include, but are not limited to, the competitive  environment
and its impact on the Company's net interest margin,  changes in interest rates,
asset quality risks,  concentrations  of credit and the economic health of Santa
Clara County (particularly the health of the semiconductor industry), volatility
of rate sensitive deposits,  asset/liability matching risks, the dilutive impact
which might occur upon the issuance of new shares of common stock, and liquidity
risks.  Therefore,  the matters set forth below should be  carefully  considered
when evaluating the Company's business and prospects. For additional information
concerning these risks and  uncertainties,  please refer to the Company's Annual

Summary of Financial Results

The  Company  reported  net  income of $1,296 or $.49 per share for the  quarter
ended  September 30, 1997,  compared with net income of $1,120 or $.42 per share
for the third quarter of 1996.  The  improvement in earnings is due primarily to
an increase in net interest income due to growth in volume.

For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, net income was $3,743 or $1.41 per
share  compared  with net income of $3,123 or $1.19 per share for the first nine
months of 1996. The  improvement is due primarily to an increase in net interest
income due to growth in volume.

Net Interest Income

Net interest  income for the quarter ended  September 30, 1997 increased $447 as
compared to the same quarter a year ago. The Bank's  average  earning assets for
the same period increased by $33 million, primarily as the result of significant
growth in the Bank's loan  portfolio.  Net  interest  income for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 increased  $1,350 as compared to the same period a year
ago.  The Bank's  average  earning  assets for the same period  increased by $36
million.

Net interest margin for the third quarter of 1997 was 6.52% as compared to 6.68%
for the same quarter in 1996.  This decrease was primarily  related to a decline
in the yield on interest-earning  assets from 9.88% in the third quarter of 1996
to 9.53% in 1997.  This was  partially  offset by a decline in the interest rate
paid  on  interest-bearing  liabilities.  The  decrease  in the  interest  rates
reflects  the general  economic  trend of interest  rates and an increase in the
competitive pressures of the Bank's local market.

Net  interest  margin for the nine months of 1997 was 6.42% as compared to 6.62%
for the  same  period  in 1996.  This  decrease  was  primarily  related  to the
aforementioned decrease in the interest rates and the competitive environment.

Although  economic  conditions in Northern  California  have remained  strong in
1997, the competitive  environment within the Bank's marketplace continues to be
aggressive and the  competition  between  lenders for additional loan growth has
caused  more  competitive  pricing.  This is  reflected  in 1997's  year-to-date
results.

Due to the nature of the  Company's  target  market in which loans are generally
tied to the prime rate,  management  believes modest increases in interest rates
should positively affect the Bank's net interest margin. Conversely,  management
believes  stable or declining  rates will tend to have an adverse  impact on net
interest margin. The Bank utilizes various methods to hedge some of its interest
rate risk. See "Loans" and "Asset/Liability Management."

The following tables shows the composition of average earning assets and average
funding  sources,  average yields and rates and the net interest  margin,  on an
annualized  basis,  for the three and nine months ended  September  30, 1997 and
1996.

Provision for Possible Loan Losses

The level of the allowance  for possible loan losses and the related  provision,
if any, reflect management's judgment as to the inherent risk of loss associated
with the loan and lease portfolios as of September 30, 1997 based on information
available to management  as of said date.  Based on  management's  evaluation of
such risks,  additions of $215 and $395 were made to the  allowance for possible
loan losses for the third quarter and the nine months ended  September 30, 1997,
respectively,  as compared to $50 and $100 for the third quarter and nine months
ended September 30, 1996, respectively. See "Loan Portfolio."

* The  percentages are calculated by annualizing the expenses and comparing that
amount to the average assets for the respective periods ended September 30, 1997
and 1996.
</FN>
</TABLE>

Total other  expenses for the third quarter of 1997  increased $40 from the same
period a year ago,  primarily  as a result of increases in salaries and benefits
(relating to  increased  volumes and  incentives),  offset by a decrease in data
processing expenses due to a reduction in contract costs.

Total other expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 increased $140
from the same  period a year ago.  The major  increases  included  salaries  and
benefits  (relating to increased  volumes and incentives),  potential  uninsured
check-processing  losses and additional costs to provide custom client services.
Offsetting   these  increases  were  reductions  in  data  processing   expenses
(reduction in contract costs),  legal and professional fees, loan and collection
expenses and a reduction in advertising costs.

Income Tax Provision

The  effective  tax rate of 42% for the nine months ended  September 30, 1997 is
affected  by  several  items.  The  most  significant  are the  amortization  of
intangibles,  tax exempt income and the California  Franchise Tax Enterprise Tax
Zone Credit.  The  effective  tax rate for the year ended  December 31, 1996 was
43%. The reduction in the rate is mainly due to the decline in  amortization  of
intangibles.

Financial Condition and Earning Assets

Consolidated  assets increased to $320 million at September 30, 1997 compared to
$309  million at December 31, 1996.  The  increase  consisted  primarily of loan
growth  and  was  funded   principally   by  an  increase  in  the  Bank's  core
interest-bearing money market deposits. See "Funding."

Money Market Investments

Money market investments, which include federal funds sold, were $2.7 million at
September  30, 1997 as compared to $19.8  million at  December  31,  1996.  This
decrease is related to the increase in the Bank's loans.

Securities

The  following  table  shows the  composition  of the  securities  portfolio  at
September  30, 1997 and December 31, 1996.  There were no issuers of  securities
(except  U.S.  Government  Securities)  for which the book  value of  securities
issued  by  any  issuer  held  by  the  Bank   exceeded  10%  of  the  Company's
shareholders' equity.

Unrealized  gains generally result from the impact of current market rates being
less than those rates in effect at the time the Bank  purchased the  securities.
The  unrealized  gain on securities  available for sale as of September 30, 1997
was $127 as compared to an unrealized  gain of $103 as of December 31, 1996. The
Bank's  weighted  average  maturity  of the  available  for sale  portfolio  was
approximately 1.59 years as of September 30, 1997. It is estimated by management
that for each 1% change in interest  rates the value of the Company's  available
for sale securities will change by 1.22%.

The unrealized  gain on securities held to maturity was $107 as of September 30,
1997 as compared to an  unrealized  gain of $159 as of December  31,  1996.  The
Bank's weighted  average maturity of the held to maturity  investment  portfolio
was  approximately  2.14 years as of  September  30,  1997.  It is  estimated by
management that for each 1% change in interest rates, the value of the Company's
securities held to maturity will change by approximately 1.58%.

Consolidated  loans  increased to $223  million at September  30, 1997 from $199
million at December  31,  1996.  Management  believes  the  increase in the loan
portfolio  can be  primarily  attributed  to the success of the Bank's  business
development  efforts in regards to  commercial  and real estate  term  financing
loans and the economic  environment  in the Bank's market area which has created
greater demand for loans in general.

Approximately  54% of the loan  portfolio is directly  related to real estate or
real  estate  interests,   including  real  estate   construction   loans,  real
estate-other,  real estate equity lines (2%, included in the Consumer category),
and loans to real estate developers for short-term  investment purposes (1%) and
loans for real estate  investments  purposes made to  non-developers  (3%).  The
latter three types are included in the Other category.  Approximately 39% of the
loan portfolio is made up of commercial loans;  however,  no particular industry
represents a significant portion of such loans.

The  following  table  shows the  maturity  and  interest  rate  sensitivity  of
commercial,  real estate-other and real estate  construction  loans at September
30, 1997.  Approximately 84% of the commercial and real estate loan portfolio is
priced with  floating  interest  rates which  generally  limits the  exposure to
interest rate risk on long-term loans.

</TABLE>

The Company  utilizes a method of  assigning a minimum and maximum loss ratio to
each grade of loan within each category of loans (commercial, real estate-other,
real estate  construction,  etc.). Loans are graded on a ranking system based on
management's assessment of the loan's credit quality. The assigned loss ratio is
based  upon,  among other  things,  the  Company's  prior  experience,  industry
experience,  delinquency trends and the level of nonaccrual loans. Loans secured
by real estate are  evaluated  on the basis of their  underlying  collateral  in
addition to using the assigned loss ratios.  The methodology also considers (and
assigns a risk factor for) current economic  conditions,  off-balance sheet risk
(including   SBA   guarantees   and   servicing   and  letters  of  credit)  and
concentrations  of credit.  In addition,  each loan is evaluated on the basis of
whether or not it is impaired.  For impaired  loans,  the expected  cash flow is
discounted on the basis of the loan's interest rate. The methodology  provides a
systematic  approach  believed  by  management  to measure  the risk of possible
future loan losses. Management and the Board of Directors evaluate the allowance
and  determine  the desired  level of the  allowance  considering  objective and
subjective measures, such as knowledge of the borrowers' business,  valuation of
collateral  and exposure to potential  losses.  The  allowance for possible loan
losses was  approximately  $4.3 million at September 30, 1997, or 1.94% of total
loans outstanding. Based on information available as of the date of this report,
management  believes the  allowance  for possible  loan  losses,  determined  as
described  above, to be adequate for potential  losses  foreseeable at September
30, 1997.

The allowance for possible loan losses is a general  reserve  available  against
the total loan portfolio and off-balance sheet credit exposure. While management
uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the
allowance  may be  necessary  based on changes in economic  conditions  or other
factors. In addition,  various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their
examination  process,  periodically  review the Bank's  allowance  for  possible
losses on loans.  Such agencies may require the Bank to provide additions to the
allowance  based on their judgment of information  available to them at the time
of their examination.

During the three months ended September 30, 1997,  there were no charge-offs and
for the  nine  months  ended  September  30,  1997 a  total  of  $148  had  been
charged-off. This compares to the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996
where the Company charged-off $155 and $341, respectively.  During the three and
nine  months  ended  September  30,  1997,  the Company  recovered  $20 and $59,
respectively,  in loans which were previously charged-off. In the three and nine
months  ended   September   30,  1996  the  Company   recovered  $82  and  $342,
respectively.  Management does not believe that there were any trends  indicated
by the detail of the aggregate charge-offs for any of the periods discussed. The
allowance for possible loan losses was 181% of nonperforming  loans at September
30, 1997 compared to 733% at December 31, 1996. This decrease  relates mainly to
the increase in nonperforming loans.

================================================================================================
</TABLE>

As of September 30, 1997, the Company had approximately  $2,377 of nonperforming
loans,  consisting  of 10  loans,  of which  $1,730  (8  loans)  is  secured  by
commercial or residential  real estate and/or SBA guarantees with estimated fair
values or  guarantees  of $3,238.  At December  31,  1996,  nonperforming  loans
totaled  approximately  $546. This increase  relates  primarily to a single real
estate  construction  loan in the  amount  of  $1.2  million,  which  Management
believes to be well secured.

Management  conducts an ongoing  evaluation  and review of the loan portfolio in
order to identify  potential  nonperforming  loans.  Management  considers loans
which  are  classified  for  regulatory  purposes,  loans  which  are  graded as
classified by the Bank's outside loan review consultant and internal  personnel,
as to whether they (i)  represent or result from trends or  uncertainties  which
management  reasonably  expects will materially impact future operating results,
liquidity,  or capital resources, or (ii) represent material credits about which
management is aware of any information  which causes  management to have serious
doubts as to the ability of such  borrowers  to comply  with the loan  repayment
terms.  Based on such  reviews as of  September  30,  1997,  management  has not
identified  any  borrowers  with  respect  to  which  known  information  causes
management to have doubts about the borrowers'  abilities to comply with present
repayment  terms,  such that the  loans  might  subsequently  be  classified  as
nonperforming.  Changes in  general or local  economic  conditions  or  specific
industry  segments,  rising interest  rates,  declines in real estate values and
acts of nature could have an adverse effect on the ability of borrowers to repay
outstanding  loans and the value of real  estate and other  collateral  securing
such loans.

</TABLE>

Deposits as of September 30, 1997 were $270 million  compared to $245 million at
December 31, 1996. The most  significant  growth in deposits has occurred in the
area  of  interest-bearing  core  deposits  which  increased  approximately  $30
million.  Management believes this growth in interest-bearing  core deposits has
been due to unusual  activity by several of the Bank's customers which might not
be sustained  and to the  business  development  efforts of the Bank's  business
development officers.  Because of this high level of unusual activity,  the Bank
has maintained significant short-term liquidity. See "Liquidity."

Asset/Liability Management

The  Company's  balance  sheet  position  is  asset-sensitive  (based  upon  the
significant  amount of variable rate loans and the repricing  characteristics of
its deposit  accounts).  This balance sheet position  generally provides a hedge
against  rising  interest  rates,  but has a detrimental  effect during times of
interest rate  decreases.  Net interest  revenues are  negatively  impacted by a
decline in interest rates.

To counter its asset sensitive interest rate position,  the Bank entered into an
interest  rate "floor" in the amount of $10 million  which  expires in May 1999.
The Bank has paid a fixed premium of $47 for which it will receive the amount of
interest on $10 million  based on the  difference  of 7% and prime when prime is
less than 7%. This  protects the Bank  against  decreases in its net income when
the prime  decreases to less than 7%.  Settlement is done quarterly and the Bank
records the impact of this hedge on an accrual basis.

Capital and Liquidity

Capital

The Federal Reserve Board's  risk-based  capital  guidelines  require that total
capital be in excess of 8% of total assets on a risk-weighted  basis.  Under the
guidelines for a bank holding company,  capital  requirements are based upon the
composition of the Company's  asset base and the risk factors  assigned to those
assets. The guidelines  characterize an institution's  capital as being "Tier 1"
capital (defined to be principally  shareholders' equity less intangible assets)
and "Tier 2" capital  (defined to be principally  the allowance for loan losses,
limited  to one and  one-fourth  percent  of gross risk  weighted  assets).  The
guidelines  require the Company to maintain a risk-based capital target ratio of
8%, one-half or more of which should be in the form of Tier 1 capital.

The Comptroller of the Currency also requires SJNB to maintain adequate capital.
The Comptroller's  current regulations require national banks to maintain Tier 1
leverage capital ratio equal to at least 3% to 5% of total assets,  depending on
the  Comptroller's  evaluation  of the Bank.  The  Comptroller  also has adopted
risk-based capital  requirements.  Similar to the Federal Reserve's  guidelines,
the amount of capital the Comptroller  requires a bank to maintain is based upon
the composition of its asset base and risk factors assigned to those assets. The
guidelines require the Bank to maintain a risk-based capital target ratio of 8%,
one-half or more of which  should be in the form of Tier 1 capital.  The capital
ratios of the Bank are similar to the capital ratios of the Company.

The capital of the  Company  and SJNB exceed the amount  required by the various
capital guidelines. The table below summarizes the various capital ratios of the
Company at September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996.

</TABLE>

Liquidity

Management strives to maintain a level of liquidity  sufficient to meet customer
requirements  for  loan  funding  and  deposit  withdrawals  in an  economically
feasible   manner.   Liquidity   requirements   are  evaluated  by  taking  into
consideration   factors  such  as  deposit   concentrations,   seasonality   and
maturities,  loan demand,  capital expenditures,  and prevailing and anticipated
economic  conditions.  SJNB's business is generated  primarily  through customer
referrals and employee business development  efforts;  however the Bank utilizes
purchased deposits to satisfy temporary liquidity needs.

The Bank's  source of  liquidity  consists  of its  deposits  with other  banks,
overnight  funds sold to  correspondent  banks,  short-term  securities  held to
maturity,  securities  available for sale, and the guaranteed portion of the SBA
loan portfolio less short-term borrowings.  At September 30, 1997,  consolidated
net liquid  assets  totaled $79 million or 28% of  consolidated  total assets as
compared  to $64 million or 22% of  consolidated  total  assets at December  31,
1996.  In addition to the liquid asset  portfolio,  SJNB also has  available $12
million in lines of credit with five major  commercial  banks, a  collateralized
repurchase agreement with a maximum limit of $40 million (of which approximately
$12 million has been utilized at September 30, 1997), and a credit facility with
the Federal Reserve Bank based on loans secured by real estate for approximately
$6 million.

SJNB is primarily a business  and  professional  bank and, as such,  its deposit
base may be more  susceptible  to  economic  fluctuations  than other  potential
competitors.  Accordingly, management strives to maintain a balanced position of
liquid  assets to volatile and cyclical  deposits.  Commercial  clients in their
normal course of business  maintain  balances in large  certificates of deposit,
the  stability  of which hinge upon,  among other  factors,  market  conditions,
interest rates and business' seasonality. Large certificates of deposit amounted
to 20% of total deposits on September 30, 1997 and 19% at December 31, 1996.

Liquidity is also  affected by portfolio  maturities  and the effect of interest
rate fluctuations on the marketability of both assets and liabilities.  The loan
portfolio  consists  primarily of floating rate,  short-term loans. On September
30, 1997,  approximately 44% of total  consolidated  assets had maturities under
one year and 84% of total  consolidated  loans had  floating  rates  tied to the
prime rate or similar indexes. The short-term nature of the loan portfolio,  and
loan agreements which generally require monthly interest  payments,  provide the
Company with a secondary source of liquidity.  There are no material commitments
for  capital  expenditures  in 1997.

Effects of Inflation

The most direct  effect of  inflation on the Company is higher  interest  rates.
Because  a  significant  portion  of the  Bank's  deposits  are  represented  by
non-interest-bearing  demand  accounts,  changes in interest rates have a direct
impact on the financial results of the Bank. See  "Asset/Liability  Management."
Another  effect of inflation is the upward  pressure on the Company's  operating
expenses.  Inflation did not have a material effect on the Bank's  operations in
1996 or the nine months of 1997.
