ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Liquidity
Deposits at March 31, 1995 totaled $76,526,000 compared to
$73,686,000 at December 31, 1994. At March 31, 1995 Federal Funds
Sold were $10,300,000 compared to $11,050,000 at March 31, 1994.
In the first quarter of 1995 average deposits recorded a modest
increase over the comparable 1994 quarter. This trend is expected
to continue throughout 1995, however, should a decline occur,
scheduled investment maturities are available to fund deposit
withdrawls. At March 31, 1995, the Bank had $2,000,000 in
investments maturing within three months.
Capital Resources
At March 31, 1995, the capital to assets ratio of the Bank was
7.20% and in compliance with the Comptroller of Currency
requirement of 5.50%, at December 31, 1994 the ratio was 6.21%.
The board and management of the Corporation continue to strengthen
the position of the bank as relates to all aspects of the
Comptroller's agreement.
The Corporation was successful in raising additional capital by
the issuance of preferred stock in the amount of $1,500,000.
The Corporation transferred $1,350,000 to the Bank and issued stock to
pay the interest that was in arrears on the Senior Notes. This action
by the board of directors complied with other aspects of the Comptroller's
agreement.

Results of Operations
Earnings summary
Three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994
The Company experienced a consolidated net gain for the three month
period ended March 31, 1995 of $146,806 a increase of $226,374 from
the comparable period in 1994. Net interest income increased
$286,414 from the comparable period of 1994 this was due to the
realignment of the loan portfolio in the latter part of 1994 and
early 1995. Average earning assets did not increase but were better
utilized towards profitability. Management has continued a program
of planned growth through increased commercial and real estate lending
with the addition of high quality commercial loans and secured real
estate mortgage loans.
Management and the Board of Directors of the Bank have emphasized
working out problem loans and tightening lending standards to improve
the quality of the loan portfolio. They also have applied stringent
standards to the loan portfolio in order to position the Bank for growth
and increased income in subsequent periods. The provision for loan
losses for the three month period is $59,000 lower than the $90,000
provision in 1994 as a result of management directive to correct
various deficiencies in the lending area.
Other operating income in the 1995 period decreased $18,826 compared
to the 1994 period. Service charges on demand deposits decreased
$16,723 compared to the same period in 1994 primarily due to a decrease
in NSF and overdraft fees.
Other operating expenses increased by $120,494. The major areas of
increases were in salaries and benefits which were increased $29,922
over the same period in 1994. These increases were attributable to
normal salary increases and need to improve the quality of management
within the bank. Professional fees were reduced by $17,000 and occupancy
expense was reduced by $22,104. Other expenses in 1995 were $128,922 higher
than the prior period in 1994 due to the writedown of other assets. The
Corporation reviews all expense categories on an ongoing basis and makes
reductions where possible without placing undue restraints on achieving
desired levels of quality performance.
