(6) RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS
- ----------------------------------
In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities". SFAS No. 125
provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of
financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities. Those standards are based
on an approach that focuses on control, whereby after a transfer of financial
assets, an entity recognizes the financial and servicing assets it controls and

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations - Quarters Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995
- -------------------------------------------------------------
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 1996 amounted to $2,026,750, up
15.8% over the $1,750,609 of net income recorded in the second quarter of 1995.
Earnings per share for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 amounted to $.68, up
13.3% over the $.60 per share earned in the comparable 1995 period.
Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 1996 increased by 3.4%
over the prior year quarter, to $6.3 million. This increase was primarily
attributable to higher dividend and interest income from securities, which was
partially offset by an increase in interest paid on time deposits and
borrowings. (See additional discussion under the caption "Net Interest
Income".)
The provision for loan losses amounted to $300,000 for both the second quarter
of 1996 and 1995.
Total noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 1996 amounted to
$2.0 million, up from $1.9 million for the same 1995 period. The 1996 amount
includes losses on sales of securities of $49,253, compared to gains on sales of
securities of $169,210 included in the 1995 amount. Noninterest income
excluding securities gains and losses and gains on loan sales rose 20.6% over
the prior year quarter primarily due to higher trust income.
Total noninterest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 amounted to $5.1
million, slightly higher than the 1995 quarter. Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation premiums for the second quarter of 1996 were reduced by
approximately $246,000 from the comparable 1995 amount due to a reduction in
rates paid by banks for deposit insurance premiums. This savings was offset by
increases in salaries and benefits and equipment expense. Salaries and benefits
were up due to increased staffing levels and normal salary adjustments, while
equipment costs were higher due to depreciation expense associated with
purchases that occurred in 1995 and in the first quarter of 1996. Foreclosed
property costs were down 67.4% in the 1996 quarter compared to the 1995 quarter
due to a higher amount of net realized gains on sales of foreclosed properties
in the 1996 quarter.
Results of Operations - Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995
- ---------------------------------------------------------------
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 amounted to $4,035,973 or
12.5% higher than the $3,589,239 of net income recorded in the comparable 1995
period. Fully diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 1996
amounted to $1.36, up 10.6% over the $1.23 per share earned in the comparable
1995 period.
The increase in net income in 1996 is due to increases in net interest income
and noninterest income totaling $794,496, which was partially offset by an
increase in the provision for loan losses of $150,000.
Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 increased by 2.9%
over the same prior year period. This increase was primarily attributable to
higher dividend and interest income from securities, which was partially offset
by an increase in interest paid on time deposits and borrowings. (See
additional discussion under the caption "Net Interest Income".)
Total noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 amounted to $3.9
million, up from $3.5 million for the same 1995 period. The 1996 amount
includes gains on sales of securities of $148,337, compared to gains on sales of
securities of $169,210 included in the 1995 amount. Noninterest income
excluding securities gains and gains on loan sales rose 13.4% over the prior
year primarily due to higher trust income.
Total noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 1996 amounted to
$9.9 million, slightly higher than the 1995 amount. Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation premiums for the six months ended June 30, 1996 were reduced by
approximately $493,000 from the comparable 1995 amount due to a reduction in
rates paid by banks for deposit insurance premiums. This savings was offset by
increases in salaries and benefits and equipment expense. Salaries and benefits
were up due to increased staffing levels and normal salary adjustments, while
equipment costs were higher due to depreciation expense associated with
purchases that occurred in 1995 and in the first quarter of 1996.

Average Balances/Net Interest Margin - Fully Taxable Equivalent Basis (FTE)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following table presents average balance and interest rate information. Tax exempt income is
converted to a FTE basis by assuming the applicable federal income tax rate adjusted for applicable
state income taxes net of the related federal tax benefit. For dividends on corporate stocks, the 70%
federal dividends received deduction is also used in the calculation of tax equivalency. Nonaccrual and
renegotiated loans, as well as interest earned on these loans (to the extent recognized in the
Consolidated Statements of Income), are included in amounts presented for loans.

Net Interest Income
- -------------------
(The accompanying schedule on page 12 should be read in conjunction with this
discussion.)
FTE net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 amounted to $13.3
million, up by approximately $535,000, or 4.2%, over the same 1995 period. The
growth in interest-earning assets, as well as an increase in the overall rate
earned on those assets, were responsible for the improvement in net interest
income. The interest rate spread and the net interest margin for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 amounted to 4.55% and 5.18%, respectively. Comparable
amounts for 1995 were 4.66% and 5.21%, respectively. The decreases in the
interest rate spread and net interest margin were due primarily to growth in
average time deposits and the higher rate paid on those deposits.
Average interest-earning assets amounted to $512.9 million for the first half of
1996, an increase of $23.4 million, or 4.8%, over the comparable 1995 amount.
The FTE rate of return on interest-earning assets was 8.67% for the six months
ended June 30, 1996, up from 8.56% for the same 1995 period. While average
total loans decreased by $3.3 million from June 30, 1995 to June 30, 1996,
average securities increased by $31.5 million or 37.5%. This change in asset
mix resulted from relatively soft loan demand and from liquidity due to deposit
growth.
The overall yield on average total loans amounted to 9.11% for the six months
ended June 30, 1996, up from 8.96% in the comparable 1995 period due to the
increase in the yield on commercial loans, which rose 44 basis points to 9.79%.
Most commercial loans reprice periodically based upon the prime rate. Although
the prime rate in effect at June 30, 1996 was 8.25% versus 9.0% a year earlier,
many periodically repricing loans have not yet repriced downward by the full 75
basis point change in prime.
The FTE yield on taxable securities rose by 40 basis points over the prior year,
to 7.47% for the first six months of 1996, as a result of a change in the mix of
securities. For the six months ended June 30, 1996, average U.S. Treasury
obligations comprised 38% of total average taxable securities, down from 60% for
the comparable 1995 period, as proceeds from maturing U.S. Treasury obligations
were reallocated to higher-yielding mortgage-backed securities and corporate
stocks. The additional growth in mortgage-backed securities and corporate
stocks resulted from maturing short-term investments and liquidity generated
from deposit growth. (See notes 2 and 3 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements for more information on the composition of securities.)
The Corporation's total cost of funds on interest-bearing liabilities amounted
to 4.12% for the six months ended June 30, 1996, up from 3.90% for the
comparable 1995 period. This increase was primarily due to increases in both
the volume of average time deposits and the rate paid on these deposits.
Average time deposits rose 6.4% from the prior year amount, to $231.4 million.
The rate paid on time deposits was 5.34% for the first six months of 1996, up
from 5.05% for the same 1995 period. While average savings deposits for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 declined by 2.4% from the comparable 1995 amount, the
rate paid on these deposits remained substantially unchanged from the prior year
period at 2.20%.
Average Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances for the six months ended June 30,
1996 amounted to $26.8 million, up from $24.1 million for the same 1995 period.
The average rate paid on FHLB advances for the six months ended June 30, 1996
was 5.98%, a decrease of 12 basis points from the prior year rate.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
- ---------------------------------
Total assets amounted to $566.7 million at June 30, 1996, an increase of $19.0
million from the December 31, 1995 amount of $547.7 million. Average assets
totalled $549.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 1996, up 4.7% over the
comparable 1995 period.
Securities Available for Sale - The amortized cost of securities available for
sale at June 30, 1996 amounted to $93.7 million, up $15.4 million from December
31, 1995. During the second quarter of 1996, the Corporation implemented an
investment leverage program designed to purchase certain adjustable rate
mortgage-backed securities which are match funded with Federal Home Loan Bank
advances. The objective of the program is to increase net interest income and
improve returns on equity, while incurring limited interest rate risk. As of
June 30, 1996, approximately $9.2 million of adjustable rate pass-through
securities and collateralized mortgage obligations issued by U.S. government-
sponsored agencies had been purchased under this investment leverage program.
The net unrealized gain on securities available for sale decreased in the first
six months of 1996 by approximately $734,000. This decline is attributable to
the decline in the market value of U.S. Treasury obligations, obligations of
U.S. government-sponsored agencies and mortgage-backed securities resulting from
the rise in medium-term and long-term Treasury rates that has occurred since
December 31, 1995.
Securities Held to Maturity - The carrying value of securities held to maturity
amounted to $29.5 million at June 30, 1996, up from $28.9 million at December
31, 1995. The net unrealized loss on investment securities amounted to
approximately $45,000 at June 30, 1996, compared to a net unrealized gain of
$560,000 at December 31, 1995, representing a reduction of $605,000 during this
six-month period. This decline was attributable to the rise in medium-term and
long-term Treasury rates occurring in the first half of 1996.
Loans - Total loans amounted to $399.5 million at June 30, 1996, an increase of
3.4% from the December 31, 1995 balance of $386.5 million. All categories of
loans exhibited increases over the year-end 1995 amounts.
Deposits and Other Borrowings - Total deposits amounted to $470.3 million at
June 30, 1996, up slightly from the December 31, 1995 amount. While savings
deposits decreased by 3.2% from the December 31, 1995 balance, time deposits
grew by 1.5%. Demand deposits increased by 7.5% from the year-end 1995 amount
due to the normal seasonal deposit inflow.
The Corporation utilizes Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances as a funding
source. FHLB advances amounted to $35.4 million at June 30, 1996, up by $14.4
million from the December 31, 1995 amount. The additional advances were used to
fund loan growth and to purchase securities under the investment leverage
program implemented in the second quarter of 1996. There were no other short-
term borrowings outstanding at June 30, 1996.
For the six months ended June 30, 1996, net cash provided by operations amounted
to $1.7 million, the majority of which was generated by net income. Proceeds
from sales of loans in the first half of 1996 amounted to $7.2 million, while
loans originated for sale amounted to $9.8 million. Net cash used in investing
activities amounted to $27.5 million and was primarily used to purchase
securities available for sale and for loan originations. Net cash used in
investing activities also included $1.1 million used to purchase premises and
equipment. The funding for cash used in investing activities was generated by
utilizing cash and cash equivalents and by a net increase in FHLB advances of
$14.4 million. (See Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for additional
information.)
During 1996, the Corporation purchased land in North Kingstown, Rhode Island, on
which it plans to build a new 5,900 square foot branch office that will open
later this year. The branch will be a full service banking office, offering
deposit and loan services as well as trust and investment services.

Not included in the analysis of nonperforming assets at June 30, 1996 and
December 31, 1995 above are approximately $1.1 million and $257,000,
respectively, of loans greater than 90 days past due and still accruing. These
loans consist primarily of residential mortgages which are considered well-
collateralized and in the process of collection and therefore are deemed to have
no loss exposure.

Impaired loans consist of all nonaccrual commercial loans. At June 30, 1996,
the recorded investment in impaired loans was $4,443,000, including $2,573,000
which had a related allowance amounting to $462,000. At December 31, 1995, the
recorded investment in impaired loans was $5,855,000, including $4,854,000 which
had a related allowance amounting to $953,000. The balance of impaired loans
which did not require an allowance at June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995 was
$1,870,000 and $1,001,000, respectively. During the six months ended June 30,
1996, the average recorded investment in impaired loans was $5,162,000. Also
during this period, interest income recognized on impaired loans amounted to
approximately $110,000. Interest income on impaired loans is recognized on a
cash basis only.

Capital Resources
- -----------------
Total equity capital amounted to $55.8 million, or 9.9% of total assets at
June 30, 1996. This compares to $52.9 million, or 9.7% at December 31, 1995.
Total equity increased by $2.9 million from December 31, 1995, $2.5 million of
which is attributable to earnings retention.
The Corporation's total risk-adjusted capital ratio amounted to 15.78% at June
30, 1996. Banks are required to maintain a minimum capital to risk-adjusted
asset ratio of 8%. The Corporation's leverage ratio amounted to 9.39% at
June 30, 1996, well above the regulatory requirement of 3% for banking
organizations with strong earnings, liquidity and asset quality who do not
anticipate significant growth and who have well-diversified risk.
Dividends payable at June 30, 1996 amounted to $753,750, representing $.26 per
share payable on July 15, 1996, an increase of 18.2% over the $.22 per share
declared in the second quarter of 1995.
The source of funds for dividends paid by the Corporation is dividends received
from its subsidiary bank. The subsidiary bank is a regulated enterprise, and as
such its ability to pay dividends to the parent is subject to regulatory review
and restriction.
In June 1996, the Corporation's Board of Directors approved a program to
repurchase up to 58,000 or 2% of its outstanding common shares. Shares may be
repurchased from time to time in the open market or in private transactions,
based upon market conditions. There is no guarantee as to the exact number of
shares to be repurchased. The Corporation plans to hold the repurchased shares
as treasury stock to be used for general corporate purposes. No repurchases had
occurred by June 30, 1996.
