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 Okla-
homa 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 addi-
tion, 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.  Com-
mercial 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 ex-
pansion and consolidation trend which most likely will continue to present ac-
quisition opportunities.  Liberty will systematically evaluate these possibili-
ties for the acquisition of smaller institutions as well as potential combina-
tions with larger institutions to determine whether they may offer the poten-
tial 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 Three Months of 1996 
Compared to First Three Months of 1995

     For the first three months of 1996, Liberty reported net income of $6.1 
million or $.61 per common share.  This compares to net income of $5.9 million 
or $.60 per common share for the first three months of 1995.  The increase in 
net income for the first three months of 1996 is primarily due to an increase 
in interest income and reduced deposit insurance assessments.  These increases 
to income have been partially offset by lower net securities gains and a $1.2 
million provision for loan losses.

Net Interest Income

     On a tax-equivalent basis, net interest income increased $3.1 million or 
15.9% in the first three months of 1996 to $22.7 million compared to $19.6 mil-
lion for the first three 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 three 
months of 1996 increased to 3.78% from 3.42% in the first three months of 1995.

     Tax-equivalent interest income increased $3.9 million to $46.1 million for 
the first three months of 1996 compared to $42.3 million in the same period of 
1995 due primarily to the $229 million increase in average loan volumes and a 
$148.4 million increase in average federal funds sold.  Funding for the in-
creased loan and federal funds sold levels was provided by taxable investment 
securities sales and maturities not reinvested and by increased deposit levels.
Securities averaged $279 million below the first three months of 1995 but the 
yield improved 46 basis points from 6.2% to 6.6% as maturities not used to fund 
the increased loan demand were invested in higher yielding securities.  These 
yield and volume mix changes as well as an increase in interest rates resulted 
in the yield on average earning assets increasing from 7.4% in 1995 to 7.7% in 
1996.

     Total interest expense increased $745 thousand to $23.4 million for the 
first three months of 1996 compared to $22.6 million for the same period in 
1995.  This slight increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $75.7 
million in average interest-bearing deposits.  The average deposit increases 
occurred primarily in the money market account deposits and also in large time 
deposits.  Liberty's cost of funds remained at 4.9% for the first three months 
of 1996 and 1995.

Noninterest Income

     Noninterest income for the first three months of 1996 decreased $3.0 mil-
lion or 17.1% from the first three months of 1995.  The largest factor of this 
decrease was in net securities gains which decreased $3.8 million due to sales 
of equity and available for sale securities in the first quarter of 1995.  Net 
securities gains for the first three months of 1996 totaled $448 thousand com-
pared to $4.2 million for the same period of 1995.  Other changes from the 
first three months of 1995 included service charges on deposits which increased 
$256 thousand, mortgage banking income which increased $197 thousand and trust 
fees which increased $190 thousand.

Noninterest Expense

     Noninterest expense decreased $1.2 million or 4.3% to $26.9 million for 
the first three months of 1996 compared to $28.1 million for the same period 
one year ago.  The largest decrease was in the deposit insurance assessment 
which decreased $1.1 million or 96.8% in 1996, due to insurance rate reductions 
in the last half of 1995. The rates of highly capitalized commercial banks were 
reduced from $.23 per hundred dollars of deposits to $.04 per hundred dollars 
of deposits.

     Salaries and employee benefits increased $513 thousand, partially as a re-
sult of increased expenses relating to management incentive and bonus plans.  
Data processing expense increased $288 thousand due to additional contractual 
expenses with Liberty's facilities manager.  Other noninterest expense de-
creased $703 thousand or 21.5%.  Liberty made a provision in the first quarter 
of 1995 for $850 thousand to cover expenses related to anticipated payments, 
settlements and costs of various matters, including legal proceedings which oc-
curred in the ordinary course of business.  A similar provision was made in the 
first quarter of 1996 for $102 thousand.

     Net income from the operation of OREO amounted to $462 thousand and $253 
thousand for the first three 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 three months ended March 
31, 1996 are $507 thousand in gains from the sale of OREO and $17 thousand of 
other gross income on OREO properties.  This compares with gains of $271 thou-
sand and other gross income of $43 thousand for the first three months of 1995.

     Liberty's operating efficiency ratio for the first three months of 1996 
improved to 72.8% compared to 84.9% 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 $2.6 million in income tax expense (32% effective tax 
rate) for the first three months of 1996.  This compares to an income tax ex-
pense of $2.7 million for the first three 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.

Credit Risk Management

     Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans and other real estate and 
assets owned net of reserves. Total nonperforming assets have decreased $1.2 
million or 7.1% since year-end 1995.  The level of nonperforming assets at 
March 31, 1996 of $16.1 million is $410 thousand or 2.6% higher than the $15.6 
million level one year ago.  At March 31, 1996, total nonperforming assets were 
1.1% of total loans and other real estate and assets owned and .6% of total as-
sets.

     Nonperforming loans decreased by $688 thousand to $12.9 million or 5.1% 
since December 31, 1995 and increased by $1.8 million or 16.3% from one year 
earlier.  Of the nonperforming loans at March 31, 1996, 25.0% were real estate-
related.  Nonperforming loans at March 31, 1996 represented .9% of total loans.

Reserve for Loan Losses

     The reserve for loan losses at March 31, 1996 was 128.9% of total nonper-
forming loans and 1.17% of total loans.  A $1.2 million provision was made in 
the first quarter of 1996.  As loans continue to increase, Liberty expects to 
continue to provide additional reserves for the foreseeable future.  No provi-
sions for loan losses were made during the first three months of 1995.  The 
following table summarizes the reserve for loan loss activity for the first 
three 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 March 31, 1996, Liberty had a recorded investment of $7.7 million in 
loans classified as impaired, of which $1.7 million required a valuation allow-
ance of $439 thousand as calculated under SFAS No. 114.  Interest income on im-
paired loans has been recorded by Liberty in a manner consistent with its in-
come recognition policies for other loans.

Other Real Estate and Assets Owned

     Net other real estate and assets owned ("OREO") decreased $531 thousand or 
14.2% since year-end 1995 and $1.4 million or 30.3% from March 31, 1995. These 
reductions have primarily been the result of sales.  Net OREO at March 31, 1996 
was $3.2 million.

     The following table illustrates the changes in the reserve for OREO for 
the first three 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 interest 
expense.  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 repur-
chase agreements averaging $89.3 million for the first three months of 1996 
compared to being a net purchaser of $85.5 million for the same period in 1995. 
Net loans as a percentage of deposits average 59.8% during the first three 
months of 1996 compared to 52.0% for the same period in 1995.  These amounts 
and percentages are within the company's liquidity and interest rate risk poli-
cies.  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 three 
months of 1995.

     Shareholders' investment of $267.0 million as a percentage of total assets 
was 9.2% at March 31, 1996 compared to $268.9 million or 9.2% at December 31, 
1995 and $243.3 million or 9.1% at March 31, 1995.  The valuation of available 
for sale securities included in shareholders' investment, net of tax, at March 
31, 1996 declined $5.6 million from year-end 1995.  Net earnings retained for 
the first three months of 1996 amounted to $3.7 million.

     Liberty's capital base remains more than adequate with a leverage ratio of 
8.88% on Tier 1 capital of $249.9 million at March 31, 1996 compared to 9.02% 
on $245.0 million at December 31, 1995 and 8.34% on $226.5 million at March 31, 
1995.  Liberty had a risk-based capital ratio at March 31, 1996 of 14.35%. This 
compares to 13.97% at December 31, 1995 and 15.18% at March 31, 1995. Liberty 
Oklahoma City and Liberty Tulsa had risk-based capital ratios at March 31, 1996 
of 14.31% and 12.22%, 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 insur-
ance assessment purposes.

Parent Company Funding Sources and Dividends

     At March 31, 1996, the parent company had cash and interest-bearing depos-
its of $1.7 million compared to $1.1 million at year-end 1995 and $11.2 million 
at March 31, 1995. The primary changes in the funding position of the parent 
company since March 31, 1995 were the payments of estimated income taxes, the 
purchase of treasury stock resulting from employee benefit plans and various 
other items.

     The parent company's ability to fund various operating expenses and divi-
dends is generally dependent on parent-only earning power, cash reserves and 
funds derived from its subsidiaries, principally Liberty Oklahoma City and Lib-
erty Tulsa.  These funds historically have been provided primarily by in-
tercompany dividends and management fees.  Management fees are generally lim-
ited 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 March 31, 1996 the ability of Liberty Oklahoma 
City and Liberty Tulsa to pay dividends without regulatory approval was limited 
to $27.8 million and $5.5 million, respectively.

     Liberty paid cash dividends of $2.3 million or $.25 per share in the first 
three months of 1996.  This compares to cash dividends in the first three 
months of 1995 of $1.9 million or $.20 per share.  It is expected that such 
cash dividends will continue if justified by Liberty's earnings, capital ade-
quacy 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.

Note 1  Accounting Policies

     The condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by 
Liberty Bancorp, Inc. ("Liberty") without audit, and include all adjustments 
which, in the opinion of management, are of a normal recurring nature and are 
necessary to present fairly the results of the interim periods, pursuant to the

formation and footnote disclosures, normally included in financial statements 
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have been

fect on net income or total  assets.

junction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in Lib-
erty's 1995 annual report on Form 10-K.
