Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2000
NOTE A -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Merchants and Manufacturers Bancorporation, Inc. (the Corporation)
and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Lincoln State Bank, Franklin State Bank,
Grafton State Bank, Lincoln Community Bank (collectively, the Banks), Merchants
Merger Corp. and M&M Services, Inc. Lincoln State Bank also includes the
accounts of its wholly owned subsidiary, M&M Lincoln Investment Corporation.
Lincoln Community Bank also includes the accounts of its wholly owned
subsidiary, Lincoln Investment Management Corporation. Grafton State Bank also
includes the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiary, GSB Investments, Inc. All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended June 30, 2000
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended December 31, 2000. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Corporation's Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.
This 10-Q contains various forward-looking statements concerning the Company's
prospects that are based on the current expectations and beliefs of management.
Forward-looking statements may also be made by the Corporation from time to time
in other reports and documents as well as oral presentations. When used in
written documents or oral statements, the words anticipate, believe, estimate,
expect, objective and similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. The statements contained herein and such future
statements involve or may involve certain assumptions, risks and uncertainties,
many of which are beyond the Corporation's control, that could cause the
Corporation's actual results and performance to differ materially from what is
expected. In addition to the assumptions and other factors referenced
specifically in connection with such statements, the following factors could
impact the business and financial prospects of the Corporation: general economic
conditions; legislative and regulatory initiatives; monetary and fiscal policies
of the federal government; deposit flows; disintermidiation; the cost of funds;
general market rates of interest; interest rates or investment returns on
competing investments; demand for loan products; demand for financial services;
changes in accounting policies or guidelines; and changes in the quality or
composition of the Corporation's loan and investment portfolio.

NOTE B -- ACQUISITION
On December 31, 1999 the Corporation completed a merger with Pyramid
Bancorporation, Inc. (Pyramid) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Grafton State
Bank. The transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests, and,
accordingly, all financial statements and information have been restated to
incorporate Pyramid's results on a historical basis. Each share of Pyramid
common stock was exchanged for 9 shares of the Corporation's $1 par value common
stock. This resulted in the issuance of 620,100 shares of the Corporation's
common stock.

NOTE F -- STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
Under federal law and regulations, the Corporation is required to meet certain
capital requirements. Under the Federal Reserve Board's risk-based guidelines
the Corporation is considered to be "well capitalized." The Banks are required
to meet leverage and risk-based capital requirements. The leverage ratio, in
general, is stockholders' equity as a percentage of total assets. The risk-based
capital ratio, in general, is stockholders' equity plus general loan loss
allowances (within certain limitations) as a percentage of risk adjusted assets.

<PAGE> 9
As of June 30, 2000, the most recent notification from Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation categorized Lincoln Community Bank, Franklin State Bank, Lincoln
State Bank and Grafton State Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory
framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized,
the Banks must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based and Tier I
leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events
since that notification that management believes have changed the banks'
category.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Financial Condition
At June 30, 2000, the Corporation's consolidated total assets were $515.4
million as compared to $474.4 million at December 31, 1999. This increase was
primarily due to a $46.5 million increase in loans receivable.
Investment securities available-for-sale decreased $2.3 million, or 6.9% from
$32.8 million at December 31, 1999, to $30.5 million at June 30, 2000. The
proceeds from maturities and repayments of investment securities are being used
to fund new loans and purchase other types of securities rather than purchase
additional investment securities.
Mortgage-related securities available-for-sale decreased $1.0 million, or 3.0%
from $33.3 million at December 31, 1999, to $32.3 million at June 30, 2000.
Purchases of mortgage-related securities were offset by sales, redemptions and
maturities of this type of security.
Loans receivable increased $46.5 million, or 12.8%, from $363.4 million at
December 31, 1999 compared to $409.9 million at June 30, 2000. This increase was
primarily due to new commercial loan relationships. This movement corresponds to
the Corporation's strategic plan of emphasizing commercial business. Currently,
loans receivable consists mainly of commercial loans secured by business assets,
real estate, and guarantees as well as mortgages secured by residential
properties located in the Corporation's primary market area. At June 30, 2000
the Corporation has not designated any as loans held for sale.
Total deposits increased $4.3 million, or 1.1%, from $377.3 million on December
31, 1999 to $381.6 million on June 30, 2000. The increase in deposits can be
attributed to the growth in certificate of deposit accounts currently offered by
the Banks. The Corporation supplemented the deposit growth by increasing the
amount of borrowed funds. Total borrowings increased by $34.0 million, or 63.7%
from $53.4 million on December 31, 1999 to $87.4 million on June 30, 2000.
Borrowings consist of Federal Home Loan Bank advances as well as fed funds
borrowed from correspondent banks.
Stockholders' equity at June 30, 2000 was $41.6 million compared to $40.4
million at December 31, 1999, an increase of $1.1 million. The change in
stockholders' equity consists of net income of $2.1 million, less the net
purchase of treasury stock of $281,000, payments of dividends to shareholders of
$736,000 and the $60,000 net increase in the market value of securities
categorized as available for sale. The Corporation and the Banks continue to
exceed their regulatory capital requirements.

<PAGE> 11
Nonperforming Assets and Allowance for Losses
Generally a loan is classified as nonaccrual and the accrual of interest on such
loan is discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has
become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further
collectibility of principal or interest. Generally, loans are restored to
accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in
accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time and the
ultimate collectibility of the total contractual principal and interest is no
longer in doubt.
Nonperforming assets are summarized, for the dates indicated, as follows:

Loan loss allowance to non-accrual loans 291.38 159.08
Loan loss allowance to total loans 0.93 0.98
</TABLE>
Nonperforming assets decreased by $545,000 from $2.4 million at December 31,
1999 to $1.8 million at June 30, 2000, a decrease of 23.1%. Payments received on
past due loans as well as the sale of other real estate owned lead to the
decline. Management believes that losses will be minimal on the remaining
balances, due to the collateral position in each situation.

Results of Operations
Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was $4.8 million,
an increase of 9.2% from the $4.4 million reported for the same period in 1999.
The increased volume of interest-earning assets accounted for the higher net
interest income. The weighted average yield on interest-earning assets increased
from 7.54% for the three months ended June 30, 1999 to 7.98% for the same period
in 2000. The increase in market interest rates caused the improvement. The
change in market interest rates and the increased level of borrowings also
caused the weighted average rate paid on deposits and borrowings to increase
from 3.41% for the three months ended June 30, 1999 to 4.09% for the three
months ended June 30, 2000. Net interest income for the six months ended June
30, 2000 was $9.4 million, an increase of 10.7% from the $8.5 million reported
for the same period in 1999. The increased volume of interest-earning assets was
the primary reason for the improvement in the year-to-date net interest income.
The following table sets forth the weighted average yield earned on the
Corporation's consolidated loan and investment portfolios, the weighted average
interest paid on deposits and borrowings, the net spread between yield earned
and rates paid and the net interest margin during the six and three months ended
June 30, 2000 and 1999.

The provision for loan losses for the three-month period ended June 30, 2000 was
$178,000 compared to $68,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999. For the
six months ended June 30, 2000, the provision for loan losses was $344,000
compared to $136,000 for than the same period in 1999. The increased provision
was made to support the rapid growth in the loan portfolio. The Corporation uses
a risk-based assessment of its loan portfolio to determine the level of the loan
loss allowance. This procedure is based on internal reviews intended to
determine the adequacy of the loan loss allowance in view of presently known
factors. However, changes in economic conditions in the future financial
conditions of borrowers cannot be predicted and may result in increased future
provisions to the loan loss allowance.

Non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was $816,000
compared to $741,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999, an increase of
$75,000, or 10.1%. Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2000
was $1.6 million compared to $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30,
1999, an increase of $172,000, or 12.3%. The increase is primarily due to the
recognition of previously deferred gain on the sale and leaseback of one of the
Corporation's banking facilities. The sale of the facility occurred on September
30, 1999.
Non-interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was $3.6 million
compared to $3.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, an increase
of $343,000, or 10.5%. Non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30,
2000 was $7.6 million compared to $7.4 million for the six months ended June 30,
1999, an increase of $184,000, or 5.5%. Salaries and employee benefits increased
$203,000 or 10.9% from $1.9 million for the three-month period ended June 30,
1999 to $2.1 million for the 2000 three-month period. Salaries and employee
benefits increased $114,000 or 2.6% from $4.4 million for the six-month period
ended June 30, 1999 to $4.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30,
2000. Premises and equipment expense increased $83,000 from $505,000 for the
three-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to $588,000 for the three-month
period ended June 30, 2000. Premises and equipment expense increased $103,000 or
9.3% from $1.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 compared to
$1.1 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000. The increase in
occupancy expense can be attributed to maintenance and repairs made on the
Corporation's properties and lease payments made on sold banking facility.
Federal deposit insurance premiums decreased $13,000 from $34,000 for the
three-month period ended June 30, 1999 to $21,000 for the three-month period
ending June 30, 2000 and also decreased $26,000 for the six-month period ended
June 30, 1999 compared to 2000. The insurance premiums decreased in 2000 due to
the reduced assessment rate charged to savings institutions. Other expenses
increased $88,000 or 14.1% in the second quarter and $8,000 or 0.1% for the
six-month period ended June 30, 2000. These increases can be attributed to
changes in operating expenses such as office supplies, examination costs and
human resource expenses.
Income before taxes for the three-month period ended June 30, 2000 was $1.78
million compared to $1.76 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999, an
increase of $23,000 or 1.3%. Income before taxes for the six-month period ended
June 30, 2000 was $2.12 million compared to $1.62 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1999, an increase of $691,000 or 28.72%. The income tax expense
for the three months ended June 30, 2000 decreased $23,000 over the 1999 second
quarter tax expense. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30,
2000 was 32.3% compared to 34.1% for the three months ended June 30, 1999. The
income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased $196,000
over the same period in 1999. The effective tax rate for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 was 31.6% compared to 32.5% for the six months ended June 30,
1999. The decrease in the tax rate can be attributed to the purchase of
tax-exempt investment securities held by the Corporation and a reallocation of
expenses throughout the Corporation's subsidiaries. On an after tax basis, the
Corporation reported net income of $1.21 million for the three month period
ended June 30, 2000 compared to $1.16 million for the same period in 1999; and
for the six month period ended June 30, 2000, the Corporation reported net
income of $2.12 million compared to $1.62 million for the same period in 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity management involves the ability to meet the cash flow requirements of
customers who may be either depositors wanting to withdraw funds or borrowers
needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit
needs. The Corporation had liquid assets of $17.1 million and $22.8 million at
June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively.
Management believes liquidity and capital levels are adequate at June 30, 2000.
For a discussion of regulatory requirements, see Note F to the Unaudited
Consolidated Financial Statements.
Asset/Liability Management
Financial institutions are subject to interest rate risk to the extent their
interest-bearing liabilities (primarily deposits) mature or reprice at different
times and on a different basis than their interest-earning assets (consisting
primarily of loans and securities). Interest rate sensitivity management seeks
to match maturities on assets and liabilities and avoid fluctuating net interest
margins while enhancing net interest income during periods of changing interest
rates. The difference between the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or
repricing within a specific time period and the amount of interest-bearing
liabilities maturing or repricing within the same time period is referred to as
an interest rate gap. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest
rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities.
A gap is considered negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive
liabilities exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets. During periods
of rising interest rates, a negative gap tends to adversely affect net interest
income while a positive gap tends to result in an increase in net interest
income. During a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap tends to
result in an increase in net interest income while a positive gap tends to
adversely affect net interest income.

The following table shows the interest rate sensitivity gap for four different
time intervals as of June 30, 1999. Certain assumptions regarding prepayment and
withdrawal rates are based upon the Corporation's historical experience, and
management believes such assumptions are reasonable.

</TABLE>
At June 30, 2000, the Corporation's cumulative interest-rate sensitive gap as a
percentage of total assets was a negative 11.2% for six months and a negative
11.3% for one-year maturities. Therefore, the Corporation is negatively gapped
and may benefit from falling interest rates.
Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the
above schedule. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have
similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react in different degrees
to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types
of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest
rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market
rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable rate mortgage loans,
have features that restrict changes in interest rates, on a short term basis
over the life of the asset. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates,
prepayment and early withdrawal levels would likely deviate significantly from
those assumed in calculating the schedule.
