NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

RURBAN FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTE A--BASIS OF PRESENTATION

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 10Q. 
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements.

For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes included in the Coproation's annual report for the year ended
December 31, 1994.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES--An allowance for loan losses is established and
maintained because some loans may not be repaid in full.  Increases to the
allowance are recorded by a provision for loan losses charged to expense. 
Estimating the risk of loss and the amount of loss on any loan is necessarily
subjective.  Accordingly, the allowance is maintained by management at a
level considered adequate to cover losses that are currently anticipated
based on past loss experience, general economic conditions, information about
specific borrower situations including their financial position and
collateral values, and other factors and estimates which are subject to
change over time.  While management may periodically allocate portions of the
allowance for specific problem loan situations, the entire allowance is
available for any loan charge-offs that may occur.  A loan is charged off by
management as a loss when deemed uncollectible, although collection efforts
continue and future recoveries may occur.

FASB  Standards No. 114 and No. 118 were adopted January 1, 1995.  Under
these standards, loans considered to be impaired are reduced to the present
value of expected future cash flows or to the fair value of collateral, by
allocating a portion of the allowance for loan losses to such loans.  If
these allocations cause the allowance for loan losses to require increase,
such increase is reported as bad debt expense.  The effect of adopting the
new guidance was not material to the Corporations consolidated financial
statements.

Interest Income--The carrying value of impaired loans are periodically
adjusted to reflect cash payments, revised estimates of future cash flows,
and increases in the present value for expected cash flows due to the passage
of time.  Cash payments representing interest income are reported as such. 
Other cash payments are reported as reductions in carrying value, while
increases or decreases due to changes in estimates of future payments and due
to passage of time are reported as bad debt expense, if reductions, or
otherwise as interest income.

NOTE B--EARNINGS AND DIVIDENDS PER COMMON SHARE

Earnings per common share have been computed based on the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the periods presented.  On January 7,
1994, the Board of Directors declared a two-for-one stock split payable on
January 28, 1994 increasing outstanding shares by 1,104,689 shares.  Earnings
per share and dividends declared per common share have been restated for all
periods presented to give effect to the stock split.  The number of shares
used in the computation of earnings per common share was 2,029,378 for 1994
and 2,184,378 for 1995.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

Rurban Financial Corp. ("Rurban") was incorporated on February 23, 1983,
under the laws of the State of Ohio.  Rurban is a bank holding company
registered with the Federal Reserve Board under the Bank Holding Company Act
of 1956, as amended.  Rurban's subsidiaries, The State Bank and Trust Company
("State Bank"), The Peoples Banking Company ("Peoples Bank"), The First
National Bank of Ottawa ("First National Bank") and the Citizens Savings Bank
("Citizens Bank") are engaged only in the industry segment of commercial
banking.  Rurban's subsidiary, Rurbanc Data Services ("Rurbanc"), provides
computerized data processing services for the Corporation's subsidiary banks
as well as other banks and businesses.  Rurban's subsidiary, Rurban Life
Insurance Company ("Rurban Life") has a certificate of authority from the
State of Arizona to transact insurance as a domestic life and disability
reinsurer.

Liquidity

Liquid assets consist of cash, amount due from banks, securities, federal
funds sold and loans held for sale.  These assets decreased 2,837,047 from
December 31, 1994 to March 31, 1995.  Liquid assets were 26% of total assets
at December 31, 1994 and 25% of total assets at March 31, 1995.  This
difference represents normal fluctuation and was not due to any change in
policy of management regarding liquidity.

Capital Resources

Capital Resources increased $1,309,557 between December 31, 1994 and March
31, 1995.  This increase was attributed to earnings of $932,144 less
dividends declared, during the three months ended March 31, 1995, of $327,656
plus change in net unrealized depreciation on available-for-sale securities
of $705,069.

The following table provides the minimum regulatory capital requirements and
the Corporation's capital ratios at March 31, 1995.

                                      Minimum Regulatory      Corporation's

  equity to total assets                    None                    9.47






                               Page 11 of 14




The Corporation's subsidiaries meet the applicable minimum regulatory capital
requirements at March 31, 1995.  The Corporation remains comfortably above
the minimum regulatory capital requirements.  The Banking Regulators may
alter minimum capital requirements as a result of revising their internal
policies and their ratings of the Corporation's Subsidiary Banks.

As of March 31, 1995, management is not aware of any current recommendation
by banking regulatory authorities which if they were to be implemented would
have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material adverse effect on the
Corporation's liquidity, capital resources or operations.

Supplemental Information

Nonperforming loans increased $1,578,000 from December 31, 1994 to March 31,
1995 primarily due to three large commercial loan customers for whom
recognition of future interest income had become questionable.

Material Changes in Financial Condition

There were no material changes in financial condition as of March 31, 1995
compared to December 31, 1994.

Material Changes in Results of Operations

Net interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 1995 was $4,034,472, an
increase of $870,053 (27%) over the same period in 1994.  The increase is
primarily due to the acquisition of Citizens Bank located in Pemberville,
Ohio, in October of 1994, and a favorable increase in yields on earning
assets.

Total noninterest income increased $146,533 (12%) to $1,352,538 due mainly
to an increase of $91,393 (25%) in Trust Department fees and an increase in
service charges on deposits of $25,924 (11%) and other income of $47,483
(49%) due partly to the acquisition of Citizens Bank.

Total noninterest expense increased $874,482 (30%) to $3,759,811 for the
quarter ended March 31, 1995 when compared to the same period in 1994, due
to the following factors.  Salaries and employee benefits increased $285,178
(20%) due in part to the acquisition of Citizens Bank as well as to normal
salary increases.  Equipment expense increased $194,318 (66%) due mainly to
a major conversion process undertaken by Rurbanc.  The most significant
factor in the increase in other expenses of $372,761 was the acquisition of
Citizens Bank along with normal inflation.

Income tax expense for the quarter was $455,055, an increase of $47,364 over
the same period in 1994 due to an increase in taxable income.

The result of all these factors is an increase in net income of $87,240 (10%)
to $932,144 for the three months ended March 31, 1995.
