ITEM 1 - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1995, the
condensed consolidated statements of income and the condensed consolidated
statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 are
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information.  The above mentioned statements reflect all
normal and recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results
of operations for the interim periods presented.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted.  It is suggested that these condensed
consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Corporation's December 31, 1994
Annual Report to Shareholders.  

The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 1995 are not
necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain 1994 amounts have been reclassified to conform to 1995 presentation.

LOANS

The Corporation adopted SFAS No. 114 "Accounting by Creditors for
Impairment of a Loan" on January 1, 1995.  This Statement impacts the
accounting by creditors for impairment of certain loans.  It requires that
certain impaired loans be measured based on the present value of expected
future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or, as
a practical expedient, at the loan's observable market price or the fair
market value of collateral.  Corporate management determined that the
adoption of SFAS No. 114 did not have a significant impact on the carrying
value of the impaired loans or on net income during the first two quarters
of 1995.

2.  PER SHARE DATA

Earnings per common and common equivalent shares (stock options) have been
computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each
period after giving consideration to the dilutive effect of incentive stock
options, a five-for-four stock split and a three percent stock dividend which
were approved by shareholders in 1995 and 1994, respectively.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
         CONDITION & RESULTS OF OPERATION

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets of the Corporation increased $18,321,000 during the first half,
increasing to $413,176,000. Some of this growth is attributable to a
successful marketing program for certificates of deposit.

Total investment securities increased $5,814,000 ending the half at
$105,338,000. At June 30, 1995 unrealized gains (losses) in the investment
securities portfolio were approximately $1,463,000 and ($602,000),
respectively.

The level of nonperforming assets decreased $139,000 and $103,000 during
the first and second quarters respectively, in 1995.  The decrease in
nonperforming assets is due to improvement in the local economy and the
resolution of a large problem credit during the fourth quarter of 1994.
The table below presents the level of nonperforming assets at the end of
the last four calendar quarters.

Amounts in thousands            06/30/95  03/31/95  12/31/94  09/30/94

Total nonperforming Assets        $  495    $  598    $  737    $1,324
                                ========  ========  ========  ========

Total loans increased $11,932,000 during the first half to $273,739,000 at
June 30, 1995.  The reserve for possible loan losses ended the quarter at
$3,915,000 supported by a provision for loan losses of $200,000, recoveries
of $56,000 and loan charge-offs of $173,000.  The reserve for possible loan
losses as a percentage of ending loans was 1.46% and 1.43% at December 31,
1994 and June 30, 1995, respectively.  Corporate management believes that
the level of the reserve for possible loan losses is adequate based upon
quantitative analysis of indentified risks and analysis of historical trends.

The Corporation's credit policies are reviewed and modified on an ongoing
basis in order to remain suitable for the management of credit risk within
the loan portfolio as conditions change.  At June 30, 1995 there are no
significant concentrations of credit in the loan portfolio.

The Corporation had outstanding loan and credit commitments to make loans
totaling $67,947,000 and $63,002,000 at June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
The increase in outstanding loan commitments results from increased loan
demand due to better economic conditions.

Total deposits increased $14,939,000 during the first half to $350,158,000.
Non-interest bearing deposits increased to $59,688,000, at June 30, 1995 for
an increase of $2,592,000, while interest bearing deposits climbed to
$290,470,000 for an increase of $12,347,000.  Federal funds sold and
securities sold under agreements to repurchase increased $2,125,000 during
the first half.  Due to the volatility of customer repurchase agreements,
most funds generated by repurchase activity enter the Corporation's earning
assets as short-term investments.

<PAGE>13

LIQUIDITY

The Corporation continues to maintain a relatively high liquid position in
order to take advantage of interest rate fluctuations.  As of June 30, 1995,
short-term security investments with maturities of one year or less totalled
$43,121,000, which represented 40.9% of total securities.  Adding cash and
due from banks of $20,695,000 total liquid assets represented 15.4% of total
assets.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

Total shareholders' equity increased to $39,063,000, at June 30, 1995.  The
increase resulted primarily from $2,265,000 of net income generated from the
first six months of operations less a cash dividend payable to shareholders
of $963,000.  The Corporation continues to monitor growth to stay within the
constraints established by the regulatory authorities.  Under Federal
banking regulations, an institution is deemed to be well-capitalized if it
has a Risk-based Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.00 percent or greater, a Risk-
based Total capital ratio of 10.00 percent or greater and a Leverage ratio
of 3.00 percent or greater.  The Corporation's Risk-based capital and
Leverage ratios have exceeded the ratios for a well-capitalized financial
institution for all periods presented above.  The Corporation's capital and
leverage ratios as of June 30, 1995 and 1994 follow.

                                                                 June 30,

On an ongoing basis the Corporation analyzes acquisition opportunities in
markets which are adjacent to or within the Corporation's current geograph-
ical market.  Corporate management believes that it's current capital
resources are sufficient to support any foreseeable acquisition activity.

The Corporation has decided to let the lease lapse on June 30, 1996 for 
its Plaza branch which is located at 1147 Meister Road, Lorain.  A new branch
facility will be built next to the Corporation's nearby Oberlin Avenue
Auto Bank.  The Corporation expects the new faciltiy to be opened in the
spring of 1996 at a cost of approximately $600,000 for the building,
improvements and equipment.

There were no material commitments outstanding at June 30, 1995, other than
the loan commitments and the contractual obligation for the new Plaza office.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Interest and fees on loans for the first half of 1995 increased $2,062 when
compared to the first half of 1994.  This was the result of the impact of
higher rates combined with increase volume.  Interest and dividends on
securities was $2,897,000 for the first half of 1995 for an increase of
$414,000 over the same period in 1994.  Interest and dividends on securities
represented 19.1% of total interest income at June 30, 1995 compared to 19.6%
at June 30, 1994.  Interest on Federal funds sold and other interest bearing
instruments was $122,000 at June 30, 1995 compared to $140,000 at June 30,
1994.  The decrease resulted from slightly higher rates which were more than
offset by the decrease in the average balance invested in these forms of 
financial instruments.

Total interest expense increased by $1,808,000 when compared to the first
half of 1994.  The impacts of changes in the mix of interest bearing
liabilities combined with increases in both volume and rate were primarily
responsible for this increase in interest expense.

Total other income increased by $121,000 when compared to the first six
months of 1994.  This increase resulted from increases in income from
fiduciary fees of $45,000 and increases in other charges of $63,000.
The increase in other charges is the result of pricing increases in credit
card and merchant fees.

The Corporation continuously monitors non-interest expenses for greater
profitability.  The entire staff is geared to improving productivity at all
levels.  Non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 1995 was
$7,990,000, 5.7% above the first six months of 1994.  This increase was due
primarily to increases in salaries and benefits, net occupancy, equipment
expense, supplies and postage and the impacts of inflation.

The effective tax rate increased from 29.1% during the first half of 1994 to
31.8% during the first half of 1995.  The increase in the effective tax rate
is due primarily to the decrease tax emempt interest.  Net income was
$2,265,000 and $2,115,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994,
respectively.  Net income per share after adjusting for the five-for-four
stock split in 1995 and the three percent stock dividend in 1994 was $.56
and $.52 for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

IMPACTS OF ACCOUNTING AND REGULATORY PRONOUNCEMENTS

Corporate management is not aware of any current recommendations the
Financial Accounting Standards Board or by regulatory authorities which,
if they were implemented, would have a material effect on the liquidity,
capital resources or operations of the Corporation.  However, the
potential impact of certain accounting and regulatory pronouncements
warrant further discussion.

Significant actions by the Federal government and its agencies, affecting
the financial institutions industry in general, are currently having and
will continue to have an impact on the Corporation.  A discussion of these
actions follows:
 
"Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993":
Effective date of impact on the Corporation: August 10, 1993
Impact on the Corporation: Although the cost of tax compliance will
increase, Corporate management does not anticipate that this tax act will
have a material impact on net income.

<PAGE>15

During 1993, a risk-related assessment system was developed by the FDIC.
Effective, January 1, 1993, the Bank was assigned to the lowest deposit
insurance assessment rate currently possible.  Under the system, the FDIC
will reevaluate the Bank's deposit insurance rate on a semi-annual basis.
The Corporation's subsidiary Bank will have a significantly lower deposit
insurance assessment rate for the second half of 1995.  The FDIC has
approved new rate schedule due to the fact that the Bank Insurance Fund (BIF)
has reached its designated reserve ratio.  The FDIC is expected to announce
in September the point at which the BIF reached it required reserve level.
If the Bank made overpayments between that point and September 30, the FDIC
refund the overpayment with interest.  The lower assessment rate will result
in an after-tax reduction of FDIC premiums by approximately $200,000 during
1995.

   Message to Our Shareholders

    It's a pleasure, once again, to report on the progress of LNB Bancorp,
   Inc., and its subsidiary, The Lorain National Bank, after the first six
   months of 1995.

    We are pleased to announce that earnings have increased 7.1 percent for
   the first half of the year, compared to the same period one year ago.
   Consolidated net income for the first six months of 1995 reached
   $2,265,000, up from $2,115,000 for the comparative period in 1994.

    Year-to-date cash dividends declared to shareholders has increased 9.3
   percent over the comparative period in 1994.  Total shareholders' equity
   also increased $2.8 million during the 12 months ended June 30, 1995 and
   total shareholders' equity, as a percentage of total assets, reached 9.5
   percent.

    Total assets rose 4.9 percent to $413,175,000 as of June 30, 1995.  Net 
   loans increased to $269,835,000 at June 30, 1995.  This represents an
   increase of $21.9 million or 8.8 percent over the net loans at June 30,
   1994.

    The local economy remains strong.  Sales of new and existing single-
   family homes are up 5.3 percent in Lorain County from 1994.  The local
   job market continues to strengthen with the influx of jobs from new
   employers such as The Geon Company, Manco, Inc. and the A. J. Rose
   Corporation.

    And finally, on September 30th, we will celebrate 90 years of banking
   service to the community.  Our doors first opened as The Lorain Banking
   Company at the corner of 6th Street and Broadway in 1905.  In 1961, a
   merger with The National Bank of Lorain gave rise to our current name,
   The Lorain National Bank.

    We thank you for your loyalty and continued support through the years
   and look forward to addressing you after the completion of our 90th year
   of successful operations.


   Sincerely,

   /s/ Stanley G. Pijor                         /s/ J. F. Kidd
