FINANCIAL REVIEW

     Liberty Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Liberty") provide a broad 
range of banking and     financial services to meet the diverse needs of 
individual and corporate customers in the Oklahoma City and Tulsa metropolitan 
areas, Oklahoma and the Mid-America region.  Liberty Bank and Trust Company of 
Oklahoma City, N.A. ("Liberty Oklahoma City") and Liberty Bank and Trust 
Company of Tulsa, N.A. ("Liberty Tulsa")  are Liberty's principal subsidiaries. 
Liberty Mortgage Company, a subsidiary of Liberty Oklahoma City, engages in 
mortgage banking activities.

     Liberty has twenty nine full-service banking locations in Oklahoma from 
which it provides its financial services.  These locations are in Oklahoma 
City, Tulsa, Edmond, Norman, Choctaw, Jenks, Harrah and Midwest City.  In 
addition, it has three limited service detached drive-in facilities in Oklahoma 
City, Tulsa and Norman. Liberty Mortgage Company ("LMC") conducts residential 
mortgage operations from the main Liberty Oklahoma City location, three 
branches and a correspondent network with community banks within the state.  
The LMC branch locations are in Oklahoma City, Tulsa and Enid, Oklahoma.  
Commercial mortgage operations are available at the main bank location of 
Liberty Oklahoma City and the LMC branch in Tulsa.

     The banking industry, both locally and nationally, is experiencing an 
expansion and consolidation trend which most likely will continue to present 
acquisition opportunities.  Liberty will systematically evaluate these 
possibilities for the acquisition of smaller institutions as well as potential 
combinations with larger institutions to determine whether they may offer the 
potential for further enhancing shareholder value and otherwise meeting 
Liberty's corporate objectives..

     This Financial Review should be read in conjunction with the consolidated 
financial statements, notes to the consolidated financial statements and the 
supplemental statistical and financial data presented elsewhere in this report.

Performance Summary:  First Six Months of 1996 
Compared to First Six Months of 1995

     For the first six months of 1996, Liberty reported net income of $12.7 
million or $1.28 per common share.  This compares to net income of $12.0 
million or $1.22 per common share for the first six months of 1995.  The 
increase in net income for the first six months of 1996 is primarily due to an 
increase in net interest income and reduced deposit insurance assessments.  
These increases to income have been partially offset by lower net securities 
gains and a $2.9 million provision for loan losses.

Net Interest Income

     On a tax-equivalent basis, net interest income increased $4.5 million or 
10.8% in the first six months of 1996 to $46.3 million compared to $41.8 
million for the first six months of 1995.  The increase is primarily due to the 
continued increase in higher yielding loan levels as well as a decrease in 
lower-yielding taxable securities.  The net interest margin for the first six 
months of 1996 increased to 3.86% from 3.64% in the first six months of 1995.

     Tax-equivalent interest income increased $5.4 million to $92.8 million for 
the first six months of 1996 compared to $87.4 million in the same period of 
1995 due primarily to a $201 million increase in average loan volumes and a 
$136.6 million increase in average federal funds sold.  While the national 
average prime rate for the first six months of 1996 was 60 basis points lower 
than the same period in 1995, Liberty's yield on loans only declined 18 basis 
points due to the significant increase in fixed-rate retail-based loans and the 
upward repricing of loans as the fixed-rate portion of the portfolio turned 
over.  Funding for the increased loan and federal funds sold levels was 
provided by taxable investment securities sales and maturities not reinvested 
and by increased deposit levels.  Taxable securities averaged $267.9 million 
below the first six months of 1995 but the yield improved 41 basis points from 
6.1% to 6.5% as maturities not used to fund the increased loan demand were 
invested in higher yielding securities.  These yield and volume mix changes 
resulted in the yield on average earning assets increasing from 7.6% in 1995 to 
7.7% in 1996.

     Total interest expense increased $881 thousand to $46.5 million for the 
first six months of 1996 compared to $45.6 million for the same period in 1995. 
This slight increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $94.7 million 
in average interest-bearing deposits.  This increase occurred primarily in 
money market account deposits and also in large time deposits.  Liberty's cost 
of funds remained at 4.9% for the first six months of 1996 and 1995.

Noninterest Income

     Noninterest income for the first six months of 1996 decreased $2.7 million 
or 8.2% from the first six months of 1995.  The largest factor of this decrease 
was in net securities gains which decreased $4.2 million due to sales of equity 
and available for sale securities in the first half of 1995.  Net securities 
gains for the first six months of 1996 totaled $1.8 million compared to $6.0 
million for the same period of 1995.  Other changes from the first six months 
of 1995 included service charges on deposits which increased $544 thousand, 
trust fees which increased $486 thousand and mortgage banking income which 
increased $276 thousand.

Noninterest Expense

     Noninterest expense decreased $1.8 million or 3.3% to $54.3 million for 
the first six months of 1996 compared to $56.2 million for the same period one 
year ago.  The largest decrease was in the deposit insurance assessment which 
decreased $2.3 million or 97.0% in 1996, due to insurance rate reductions in 
the last half of 1995. The insurance rates on highly capitalized commercial 
banks of $.23 per hundred dollars of deposits in the Bank Insurance Fund were 
reduced to zero at the beginning of 1996 but remained at the same rate on a 
small amount of Savings Association Insurance Fund deposit accounts.

     Salaries and employee benefits increased $1.7 million, partially as a 
result of increased expenses relating to management incentive and bonus plans.  
Data processing expense increased $360 thousand due to additional contractual 
expenses with Liberty's facilities manager.  Other noninterest expense 
decreased $1.3 million or 19.4%.  Liberty made a provision in the first half of 
1995 for $1.8 million to cover expenses related to anticipated payments, 
settlements and costs of various matters, including legal proceedings which 
occurred in the ordinary course of business.  A similar provision was made in 
the first quarter of 1996 for $102 thousand.  Liberty also increased its 
charitable contributions in the first half of 1996 by $411 thousand.

     Net income from the operation of other real estate and assets owned 
("OREO") amounted to $1.3 million and $679 thousand for the first six months of 
1996 and 1995, respectively. The results of the operation of OREO include 
operating income generated and gains from the sale of OREO properties, reduced 
by expenses related to the operation of OREO. Included in income from the 
operation of OREO for the six months ended June 30, 1996 are $1.1 million in 
gains from the sale of OREO and $161 thousand of other gross income on OREO 
properties.  This compares with gains of $729 thousand and other gross income 
of $76 thousand for the first six months of 1995.

     Liberty's operating efficiency ratio for the first six months of 1996 
improved to 72.5% compared to 81.5% in 1995.  The operating efficiency ratio is 
defined as noninterest expense as a percent of net interest income on a tax 
equivalent basis plus noninterest income less security gains or losses.

Income Taxes

     Liberty recorded $5.5 million in income tax expense (30% effective tax 
rate) for the first six months of 1996.  This compares to an income tax expense 
of $5.6 million for the first six months of 1995.  It is anticipated that 
future effective income tax rates will approximate the statutory rate less the 
effects of permanent differences, primarily tax-exempt interest income.

     At December 31, 1995, Liberty had net operating loss carryforwards 
available to offset future state taxable income of approximately $80 million.  
Given a long history of generating operating losses for state income tax 
purposes, it was previously determined that it was more likely than not that 
Liberty would not be able to utilize a substantial portion of these net 
operating loss carryforwards prior to their expiration.

     Beginning in 1996, Liberty undertook an analysis to determine ways it may 
be able to generate sufficient state taxable income in order to utilize these 
net operating loss carryforwards.  Although the analysis has not been 
completed, it appears, given the level of income Liberty has generated in 1996 
as well as the ability to employ selected tax planning strategies, that the 
generation of state taxable income sufficient to utilize all or a substantial 
portion of the net operating losses is a strong possibility.  Liberty plans to 
complete its analysis in the third quarter of 1996 and make appropriate 
adjustments to the valuation allowance established previously for state net 
operating loss carryforwards at that time.

Performance Summary:  Second Quarter of 1996 
Compared to Second Quarter 1995

     During the second quarter of 1996 the Company reported net income of $6.6 
million or $.67 per common share compared to net income of $6.1 million or $.62 
per share for the second quarter of 1995.  The primary changes between periods 
were in net interest income, the provision for loan losses, the deposit 
insurance assessment and employee salaries and benefits.

Net Interest Income

     On a tax-equivalent basis, net interest income for the second quarter of 
1996 increased $1.4 million or 6.3% to $23.6 million from $22.2 million in the 
second quarter of 1995.  The tax-equivalent net interest margin was 3.94% for 
the second quarter of 1996 compared to 3.84% for the same period one year ago.  

     Tax-equivalent interest income increased $1.5 million to $46.7 million for 
the second quarter of 1996 compared to $45.2 million in the same period of 
1995.  The increase is due primarily to increased levels of earning assets, 
primarily loans and federal funds sold which were partially funded through 
sales and maturities of taxable securities.  While the national average prime 
rate for the second quarter of 1996 was 75 basis points lower than the same 
period in 1995, Liberty's yield on loans only declined 35 basis points due to 
the significant increase in fixed-rate retail-based loans and the upward 
repricing of loans as the fixed-rate portion of the portfolio turned over.  
Taxable securities averaged $238.2 million below the second quarter of 1995 but 
the yield improved 35 basis points from 6.2% to 6.6% as maturities not used to 
fund the increased loan demand were invested in higher yielding securities.  
The yield on average earning assets decreased slightly from 7.82% to 7.80%.

     Total interest expense amounted to $23.1 million for the second quarter of 
1996 compared to $23.0 million in the same period of 1995.  While interest-
bearing liabilities increased for the second quarter of 1996, primarily in the 
time deposit area, the impact was generally offset by decreased interest rates. 
The cost of funds decreased to 4.84% in the second quarter of 1996 from 4.99% 
the previous year.

Noninterest Income

     Noninterest income increased $317 thousand or 2.1% in the second quarter 
of 1996 compared to the second quarter of 1995, primarily due to higher trust 
fees and service charges on deposits.  These increases were partially offset by 
lower net securities gains which decreased from $1.8 million in the second 
quarter of 1995 to $1.3 million in the same period of 1996.

Noninterest Expense

     Noninterest expense decreased $642 thousand or 2.3% during the second 
quarter 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995.  The largest factor was a 
$1.1 million reduction in the deposit insurance assessment as explained in the 
year-to-date analysis.  Other noninterest expense also decreased $591 thousand, 
largely as a result of a $940 provision in 1995 to cover expenses as explained 
in the year-to-date analysis.  These savings were partially offset by increases 
in salaries and employee benefits due to increased expenses relating to 
management incentive and bonus plans and the employee medical plan.

Credit Risk Management

     Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans and other real estate and 
assets owned net of reserves. Total nonperforming assets have decreased $5.1 
million or 29.6% since year-end 1995 as shown in the following table.

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

     At June 30, 1996, total nonperforming loans and gross OREO were .9% of 
total loans and other real estate and assets owned and .4% of total assets.  
Nonperforming loans at June 30, 1996 represented .7% of total loans.  Of the 
nonperforming loans at June 30, 1996, 26.7% were real estate-related.

Reserve for Loan Losses

     The reserve for loan losses at June 30, 1996 was 171.2% of total 
nonperforming loans and 1.17% of total loans.  A $2.9 million provision was 
made in the first half of 1996.  As loans continue to increase, Liberty expects 
to continue to provide additional reserves for the foreseeable future.  No 
provisions for loan losses were made during the first six months of 1995.  Loan 
charge-offs, presented in the following table, have increased $1.7 million due 
to increases in charge-offs associated with loans in the retail sector.  As 
national trends in financial institutions are indicating and Liberty has also 
experienced in recent months,  charge-offs of loans-to-individuals have 
increased compared to the same period in 1995.  Accordingly, Liberty continues 
to evaluate the need for additional reserves in this sector.  The following 
table summarizes the reserve for loan loss activity for the first six months of 
1996 and 1995:

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

     Liberty classifies certain loans as "impaired" and measures these loans 
based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the 
loan's original effective interest rate.  As a practical expedient, impairment 
may be measured based on the loan's observable market price or the fair value 
of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.  When the measure of the 
impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the impairment 
is recorded through a valuation allowance.

     At June 30, 1996, Liberty had a recorded investment of $7.1 million in 
loans classified as impaired, of which $3.1 million required a valuation 
allowance of $457 thousand which is included as a component of the reserve for 
loan losses.  Interest income on impaired loans has been recorded by Liberty in 
a manner consistent with its income recognition policies for other loans.

     The reserve for loan losses, theoretically, adjusts the value of the loan 
portfolio to its realizable value by covering the inherent losses in the 
portfolio.  In practice, this valuation can never be precise. Changing or 
uncertain economic conditions can lead to reevaluations of the adequacy of the 
reserve.  Current economic conditions are uncertain and Liberty plans to 
evaluate the adequacy of its reserve, as always, in light of current conditions 
and anticipated trends.  Liberty has used a range method for many years in 
determining reserve adequacy.  This method allows adjustments to the reserve to 
reflect loan review's and management's assessment of the loss inherent in the 
loan portfolio as economic conditions change and  historic loss data is 
evaluated.  

Other Real Estate and Assets Owned

     Net OREO decreased $1.3 million or 35.1% since year-end 1995 and $865 
thousand or 26.3% from June 30, 1995. These reductions have primarily been the 
result of sales.  Net OREO at June 30, 1996 was $2.4 million.

     The following table illustrates the changes in the reserve for OREO for 
the first six months of 1996 and 1995:

Asset and Liability Management

     Liberty's overall liquidity is more than adequate to meet its foreseeable 
funding needs.  Sufficient sources of asset based liquidity, such as marketable 
securities and federal funds sold, are available to meet the planned loan 
growth and other short-term needs of the Company. Retail deposits are also a 
major source of funds, but wholesale funding sources such as federal funds 
purchased and other borrowings are also used to provide liquidity.  While funds 
are readily available, the competition for deposits is significant from other 
banks and nonbanking investment products causing an upward pressure on cost of 
funds.  However, Liberty's costs of funds are commensurate with local 
competition.

     As a result of lower levels of investment securities and increased deposit 
levels, Liberty was a net seller of federal funds and securities under 
repurchase agreements averaging $77.0 million for the first six months of 1996 
compared to being a net purchaser of $80.7 million for the same period in 1995. 
Net loans as a percentage of deposits average 60.2% during the first six months 
of 1996 compared to 53.7% for the same period in 1995.  These amounts and 
percentages are within the Company's liquidity and interest rate risk policies. 
Due to the increase in loan volume, restructuring of the available for sale 
portfolio into higher yields and more stable cost of funds, Liberty's net 
interest margin has improved significantly in 1996 compared to the first six 
months of 1995.

Capital Funds

     Shareholders' investment of $265.8 million as a percentage of total assets 
was 9.0% at June 30, 1996 compared to $268.9 million or 9.2% at December 31, 
1995 and $253.0 million or 9.4% at June 30, 1995.  The valuation of available 
for sale securities included in shareholders' investment, net of tax, at June 
30, 1996 declined $10.6 million from year-end 1995.  Net earnings retained for 
the first six months of 1996 amounted to $8.0 million.

     Liberty's capital base remains more than adequate with a leverage ratio of 
9.15% on Tier 1 capital of $255.5 million at June 30, 1996 compared to 9.02% on 
$245.0 million at December 31, 1995 and 8.49% on $228.7 million at June 30, 
1995.  Liberty had a risk-based capital ratio at June 30, 1996 of 14.26%. This 
compares to 13.97% at December 31, 1995 and 14.38% at June 30, 1995. Liberty 
Oklahoma City and Liberty Tulsa had risk-based capital ratios at June 30, 1996 
of 14.36% and 12.11%, respectively.  The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation 
assesses insurance premiums based in part on the level of capital with banks 
which are "well capitalized" paying assessments at lower rates.  Liberty's and 
its subsidiary banks' capital ratios are significantly higher than the current 
guidelines and the subsidiary banks are "well capitalized" for deposit 
insurance assessment purposes.

Parent Company Funding Sources and Dividends

     At June 30, 1996, the parent company had cash and interest-bearing 
deposits of $10.3 million compared to $1.1 million at year-end 1995 and $9.2 
million at June 30, 1995. The primary changes in the funding position of the 
parent company since year end 1995 were the intercompany tax settlement, net of 
estimated tax payments, totaling $6.1 million and intercompany dividends 
totaling $5.0 million.

     The parent company's ability to fund various operating expenses and 
dividends is generally dependent on parent-only earning power, cash reserves 
and funds derived from its subsidiaries, principally Liberty Oklahoma City and 
Liberty Tulsa.  These funds historically have been provided primarily by in-
tercompany dividends and management fees.  Management fees are generally 
limited to reimbursement of actual expenses.  It is anticipated that the parent 
company's recurring cash sources will continue to include management fees from 
subsidiaries, proceeds from the sale of other assets (principally other real 
estate and assets owned) and retained rights to any gains from the sales of 
mortgage servicing and other assets.  Dividends are paid by the subsidiary 
banks from time to time to support the parent company's activities.  Liberty 
Oklahoma City and Liberty Tulsa are limited in their ability to pay dividends 
based on applicable provisions of the National Bank Act pertaining to earnings 
and undivided profits.  As of June 30, 1996 the ability of Liberty Oklahoma 
City and Liberty Tulsa to pay dividends without regulatory approval was limited 
to $31.8 million and $5.7 million, respectively.

     Liberty paid cash dividends of $4.7 million or $.50 per share in the first 
six months of 1996.  This compares to cash dividends in the first six months of 
1995 of $3.8 million or $.40 per share.  It is expected that such cash 
dividends will continue if justified by Liberty's earnings, capital adequacy 
and financial condition.

     In management's opinion, the parent company's current liquidity and cash 
sources are anticipated to be adequate to meet its obligations in the near 
term.
