PART I

Item 1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

HNB Financial Group (Company), a California corporation, was incorporated on
August 4, 1983 for the purpose of acquiring all of the outstanding common
shares of Huntington National Bank (Bank) through an exchange of one share of
stock in the Company for each share of Bank stock outstanding.

The exchange of stock occurred July 12, 1984 when 353,933 shares of stock of
Huntington National Bank were exchanged.  With the completion of this
exchange, the Company became a one-bank holding company subject to
regulation by the Federal Reserve Board.

The bank is operated as an independent bank serving the greater Huntington
Beach and Mid-Cities areas with a complete line of banking services.
Services include checking accounts, savings accounts, money market accounts,
certificates of deposit, bus iness and personal loans, and small business
administration loans.

On November 2, 1994, the Company entered into an agreement with First Banks,
Inc. and HNB Acquisition Company ("Acquisition Co."), the wholly -owned
subsidiary of First Banks pursuant to which (I) the Company will be the
surviving entity following th e merger of Acquisition Co. with and into
HNB Financial Group, and (ii) each outstanding share of Common Stock will
be converted into the right to receive cash in the amount of $10.90.  The
Board of Directors of the Company and First Banks believe th at the
transaction will be consummated by the end of April, 1995.  The Board of
Directors of the Company believe that once the merger with First Banks has
been completed, First Banks intends to merge the Company with and into
Commercial Center Bancorp.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and the Bank.

All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

2 LOANS

Loans are stated at amounts advanced less payments received.  Interest income
on loans is accrued monthly as earned using the "simple interest" method.
Except where reasonable doubt exists as to the collectibility of the interest,
in which case the accrual of income is discontinued.  Fees on loans, in excess
of the estimated actual costs of processing, are deferred and amortized over
the remaining life of the loan using either effective interest method or the
straight-line method, whichever is applicable.

The provision for possible loan losses is based on management's evaluation of
the loan portfolio under current economic conditions and such other factors
which, in management's best judgment, deserve current recognition in
estimating possible losses.

3 PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT

Premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation
which is charged to expense monthly on a straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the assets or, in the case of leasehold
improvements, over the terms of the lea se, whichever is shorter.

4 STOCK OPTION PLANS

The Board of Directors approved an amended stock option plan on November 19,
1987, which authorizes the issuance of options to acquire up to 192,532 shares
(after giving retroactive effect for stock dividends) of the Company's
unissued common stock t o officers and other key personnel.  Expiration dates
for the options granted under the plan range from one to not more than ten
years after their grant.

Options are granted with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of
the common stock at the time of grant.  Options to purchase 160,370 shares
at a range of $5.65 to $6.60 per share were outstanding at March 31, 1995.

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATION.

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL POSITION

At the end of the first quarter, total assets were at $91,294,000 compared
to $91,879,000, a decrease of $585,000 from the same period last year.

Deposits decreased by $1,199,000 to $79,574,000 compared to $80,773,000 in
the first quarter last year.  Both interest bearing and noninterest bearing
deposits contributed to the decrease.

Good loans remained very competitive among banks. However, as of the end
of the first quarter, gross loans were at $65,469,000, $585,000 higher than
the same period last year.

Loan to deposit ratio at the end of the quarter was at 83.46%.

Liquidity was adequate with maintenance of a good mix of short term U.S.
government and agency securities, federal funds sold, and interest bearing
certificates of deposit with other financial institutions. The Bank has
a Federal Fund borrowing line with a major bank as a contingent funding
source to meet unexpected decreases in deposits, and increases in funding
needs.

Tier 1 capital and total capital to risk weighted assets were 15.28% and
16.54%, respectively.  Tier 1 Capital to Adjusted total assets was 12.64%.
Based on these ratios, the Company is considered as "well-capitalized".

</TABLE>

The majority of assets maturing in the over 5 year category are fully
amortized installment loans.  These loans, although long term in nature,
have a historical record of being paid off within 3 to 3.5 years.  The gap
to assets ratios from zero to tw elve month time periods were within the
maximum guideline range.

The schedule above includes savings and money market accounts.

CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company recorded a first quarter profit of $80,000, twice as much as
1994's year to date loss of $81,000.

Total interest income increased by $308,000 to $2,009,000, due largely to
relatively higher interest rates and yields across all earning assets
spectrum compared to 1994.  Costs of funds likewise increased, albeit, the
increase in interest expense was less than half the size of the increase in
interest income.  As a result, net interest income improved by $146,000 to
$1,432,000 during the first quarter.  Year to date loan loss provision was
significantly lower than last year, $100,000 in 1995 versus $240,000 in 1994,
respectively.  There was no OREO at the end of the first quarter.

This year's loss on sale of other assets owned (boats, autos and mobile homes)
was twice the amount of last year, $24,000 in 1995 compared to $12,000 in 1994,
respectively.  No OREO related loss or expense was recorded in 1995 versus
$87,000 OREO exp ense in 1994.

A $50,000 investment loss provision was allocated to the Garden Grove
Sanitation District and City of Placentia Municipal Securities who have
invested funds in the infamous Orange County Investment Pool.  This write down
provision was undertaken as a n abundance of caution.  However, based on
recent communications with the principals of these two municipalities, it
appeared that these two securities may be paid in full at maturity.  The
officers of these two municipalities have indicated that they intend to honor
their obligations when due to preserve their rating.  At least one of them
have made necessary arrangement to do so.  The $50,000 investment loss
provision will likely be reversed during the second quarter when these
securities matu re and are paid in full.

Noninterest income decreased by $19,000, while noninterest expenses decreased
by $20,000, offsetting the reduction in noninterest income.

No nonrecurring adjustment was made during the second quarter.
