ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
Consolidated total assets at March 31, 1997 were $34.7 million above the
comparable level at December 31, 1996. The 33% increase in assets was due
primarily to Bank of Lodi's acquisition of three branches from Wells Fargo Bank
which added $34 million to total deposits. The deposit funds received in the
acquisition of these branches are currently deployed in federal funds sold,
which increased $18.9 million from December 31, 1996, and investment securities,
which increased $13.6 million from December 31, 1996. Bank premises and
equipment and other assets also increased as a result of the branch acquisition.
Bank premises and equipment increased by $800 thousand, or 12%. Other assets
increased by $1.8 million, or 108%.
On February 22, 1997, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Bank of Lodi,
completed the acquisition of the Galt, Plymouth, and San Andreas, California,
branches of Wells Fargo Bank. Bank of Lodi purchased the premises and equipment
of the Plymouth and San Andreas branches and assumed the building lease for the
Galt branch. Bank of Lodi also purchased the furniture and equipment of all
three branches and paid a premium for the deposits of each branch. The total
cost of acquiring the branches, including payments to Wells Fargo Bank as well
as other direct costs associated with the purchase, was $2.86 million. The
transaction was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated first to identifiable tangible
assets based upon the asset's fair value and then to identifiable intangible
assets based upon the asset's fair value. The excess of the purchase price over
identifiable tangible and intangible assets was allocated to goodwill.
Allocations to identifiable tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and
goodwill were $856 thousand, $1.98 million, and $24 thousand, respectively.
Deposits totaling $34 million were acquired in the transaction.
Total deposits were $126.4 million at March 31, 1997 compared to $92.2 million
at December 31, 1996. Total deposits increased by $34.7 million, or 38%, and
included $34 million in deposits received when Bank of Lodi acquired three
branches from Wells Fargo Bank. Noninterest bearing demand deposits increased by
$4.2 million or 46% due to continued business development success and a more
favorable noninterest bearing mix in the deposits acquired from Wells Fargo
Bank. Average noninterest bearing demand deposits for the quarter were 10% of
total average deposits compared to 8% for the comparable prior year quarter.
The aforementioned acquisition of three branches from Wells Fargo Bank and the
resulting increase in deposits significantly increased the liquidity of Bank of
Lodi. As of March 31, 1997 approximately one half of the deposits acquired had
been invested in US Agency securities and, to a lesser degree, mortgage backed
securities. The purchases of U.S. Agency securities included both medium term
notes due in four to five years and callable securities with final maturities in
three to ten years. The callable securities have from one to three years of call
protection. Mortgage backed securities purchased were fixed-rate GNMA
pass-through certificates with an average life of approximately nine years.
Management believes that the current liquidity position of Bank of Lodi is
adequate to support future loan demand, capital investment, and deposit
activity.
The allowance for loan losses at March 31, 1997 is in excess of the December 31,
1996 allowance by $257 thousand, or 21%. The principal reason for the increase
was an increase in the specific reserves for certain loans that exhibited
increased loss exposure during the quarter. There were loan recoveries during
the quarter ended March 31, 1997 of several loans that had been charged off in
previous years totaling $341 thousand. Based upon the resulting reserve position
after recoveries and increases in specific reserves for certain loans, $80
thousand of the reserve was reversed and credited to income in the form of a
negative loan loss provision for the quarter. Nonaccrual loans decreased by $190
thousand, or 21% from December 31, 1996 to March 31, 1997, and the allowance for
loan losses nonaccrual coverage ratio increased to 2.07 times from 1.34 times.
Total portfolio delinquency at March 31, 1997 was 2.58%, compared to 2.14% at
December 31, 1996. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses at
March 31, 1997 is adequate. The following tables depicts activity in the
allowance for loan losses and allocation of reserves for and at the three and
twelve months ended March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively:

Consolidated equity increased by $67 thousand from December 31, 1996 to March
31, 1997. Consolidated equity represented 8.51% of consolidated assets at March
31, 1997 compared to 11.33% at December 31, 1996. The increase in equity from
earnings of $340 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 1997 exceeded
reductions from dividend payments of $65 thousand and a reduction to equity of
$208 thousand to reflect the after-tax market value decline of the
available-for-sale portion of the investment portfolio. The decline in
investment portfolio market value reflects the impact of rising market interest
rates during the three months ended March 31, 1997. The risk capital position of
the Company's subsidiary, Bank of Lodi, NA, declined as a result of the
aforementioned acquisition of three branches from Wells Fargo Bank. The total
risk-based capital ratio was 13.2% at March 31, 1997 compared to 17.0% at
December 31, 1996. The Bank's leverage capital ratio was 6.9% at March 31, 1997
versus 10.8% at December 31, 1996. Notwithstanding the decline in the capital
ratios, the resulting ratios are in excess of the regulatory minimums for a
well-capitalized bank.
CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATION - THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was $340 thousand, or $.25
per share, and represented an increase of 150% relative to the three months
ended March 31, 1996. Annualized return on average assets and equity were 1.16%
and 11.4%, respectively, compared to .49% and 4.4%, respectively, for the
comparable prior year quarter. Net interest income increased as a result of the
increase in earning assets related to the acquisition of new branches and a
widened net interest margin which benefited from the collection of $445 thousand
in nonaccrual interest on several loans that had been charged off in previous
years. Noninterest income increased by $77 thousand, or 34%, while noninterest
expenses increased by $543 thousand, or 49%. Based upon the earnings for the
three months ended March 31, 1997, the board of directors of First Financial
Bancorp declared a cash dividend of $.05 per share, payable May 30, 1997, to
shareholders of record May 15, 1997.

<PAGE>
Net interest income increased by $687 thousand, or 35%, relative to the
comparable prior year quarter. Net interest margin increased to 6.83% for the
quarter compared to 4.85% in the prior year quarter. During the quarter,
interest income totaling $445 thousand was recovered and recognized on several
loans that had been charged off in previous. Excluding the recovered interest,
net interest margin was 5.15%, or 30 basis points higher than the prior year
quarter. Excluding the recovered interest, the remaining increase in interest
income of $242 thousand represents the net impact of significant changes in the
volume and mix of earning assets and deposits as well as the general level of
interest rates.
Average earning assets and deposits for the three months ended March 31, 1997
increased by $13.7 million, or 15%, and $13.7 million, or 15%, respectively,
over the prior year quarter. Excluding the impact of lower interest rates and
changes in the mix of earning assets and deposits, net interest income increased
$165 thousand as a result of the higher volume of average earning assets and
deposits. Earning assets yielded 9.97% for the quarter compared to 8.46% in the
prior year quarter. Excluding recovered interest, earning asset yields were
8.28% or 18 basis points below the prior year quarter. Asset yields for loans
and investments were higher than the prior year due to a more favorable mix of
loans and a higher mix of callable agency securities in the investment
portfolio. Although average loans outstanding increased over the prior year
quarter, loans as a percentage of earning assets declined to 51% from 57% as a
result of the increase in average earning assets from the branch acquisition.
The mix of deposits shifted away from higher cost certificates of deposit to
lower cost noninterest bearing and interest bearing demand deposit accounts.
Average certificates of deposit were 36% of average deposits and other debt for
the first quarter of 1997 compared to 38% in the prior year. The mix of deposits
and other debt also improved due to the payoff of $2.6 million in mortgage debt
in November 1996. The impact of the changed earning asset mix reduced interest
income by $74 thousand for the quarter relative to the prior year, while the
changed deposit and debt mix reduced interest expense by $24 thousand. Finally,
the impact of higher loan and investment portfolio rates and lower deposit rates
increased net interest income by $135 thousand.
The provision for loan losses decreased by $135 thousand to a negative provision
of $80 thousand. Total recoveries of loans charged off in previous years added
$341 thousand to the allowance for loan losses during the quarter. Management's
analysis of the allowance for loan losses as of March 31, 1997 indicated an
overfunded condition, and $80 thousand of the reserve was credited to the
provision for loan losses. As discussed above under Changes in Financial
Condition, the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 1997 increased in
comparison to December 31, 1996, due to increases in specific reserves for
certain loans for which additional loss exposure was exhibited during the
quarter.
Noninterest income increased by $77 thousand, or 34%, reflecting increases in
both service charge income as well as income from SBA and mortgage operations.
Service charge income increased by 38% as a result of increased deposit account
and transaction volumes as well as increases in certain service charge rates.
Deposit account and transaction volumes increased due to Bank of Lodi's
acquisition of three branches as discussed above under Changes in Financial
Condition as well as new account activity at existing branches. SBA and mortgage
income improved by 33%. The principal element of increased SBA and mortgage
income was increased SBA loan origination and sale volume. Premium income
related to SBA loan sales rose by 72% over the prior year quarter due to
continued improvement in the climate for small business loans as well as focused
business development efforts.
Noninterest expenses increased by $543 thousand, or 43%, compared to the prior
year quarter. Salaries and benefit expenses increased due in part to incentive
compensation accruals related to increased profitability and SBA loan sales
volumes. Other noninterest expenses increased due to the amortization of
intangible assets received in Bank of Lodi's acquisition of three branches,
provisions for losses on the sale of other real estate owned, provision for
losses in connection with the reclamation of deposit account cash items, and the
accrual of legal and professional costs associated with loan loss resolution.
The aforementioned salary and other noninterest expense items which are not
comparable to the prior year total approximately $300 thousand in the aggregate.
Excluding these items, total noninterest expenses increased by $243 thousand, or
22%, reflecting salary and benefit expenses for the newly acquired branches, the
addition of one administrative officer, and other operating expenses related to
the expanded operational base of Bank of Lodi. The acquisition by Bank of Lodi
of three branches from Wells Fargo Bank is discussed above under Changes in
Financial Condition.
