NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
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 10-Q. 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 Corporation's annual report for the year ended
December 31, 1998.

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. The number of shares
used in the computation of basic earnings per common share was 4,078,091 and
4,078,085 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 4,059,322
and 4,063,505 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998. The number
of shares used in the computation of diluted earnings per common share was
4,080,100 and 4,086,834 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999
and 4,078,063 and 4,085,665 for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1998.

NOTE C-- ACCOUNTING STANDARD IMPLEMENTED IN 1999

No new accounting standards have been implemented during the first nine months
of 1999.

NOTE D-- RISK ELEMENTS AND LOAN LOSS RESERVE

There have been no changes in the Risk Elements and Loan Loss Reserve activity
that would materially effect the Corporation's financial position or results of
operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999.

NOTE E - BENEFIT PLANS

The Corporation's Board of Directors adopted a stock option plan in 1997. Under
the terms of this plan, options for up to 400,000 shares of the Corporation's
common stock may be granted to key employees and directors of the Corporation
and its subsidiaries. Stock option plans are used to reward employees and
provide them with an additional equity interest. Options are issued for 10 year
periods with varying vesting periods. The exercise price of the options is
determined at the time of grant by a committee of the Board of Directors and
cannot be less than the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant.

SFAS No. 123 requires proforma disclosures for companies that do not adopt its
fair value accounting method for stock-based employee compensation. Accordingly,
the following proforma information presents net income and earnings per common
share had the fair value method been used to measure compensation cost for stock
option plans. Compensation cost actually recognized for stock options was $-0-
for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998.

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 Company ("Citizens Bank")
are engaged only in the industry segment of commercial banking. Rurban's
subsidiary, Rurbanc Data Services, Inc. ("RDSI"), 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.

Reliance Financial Services, N.A. ("Reliance"), a wholly owned subsidiary of
State Bank, provides trust and financial services to customers nationwide.
Rurban Mortgage Company ("Rurban Mortgage"), a wholly owned subsidiary of State
Bank, operates a residential mortgage loan production office in Clearwater,
Florida. This office underwrites, processes, closes and sells residential
mortgages acquired through a network of real estate mortgage lenders in the
Tampa Bay, Florida market and community banks in Ohio, including the four Rurban
subsidiary banks.

LIQUIDITY
- ---------

Liquidity relates primarily to the Corporation's ability to fund loan demand,
meet deposit customers' withdrawl requirements and provide for operating
expenses. Assets used to satisfy these needs consist of cash, federal funds
sold, interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions, securities and
loans held for sale. These assets are commonly referred to as liquid assets.
Liquid assets were $115 million at September 30, 1999, compared to $126 million
at December 31, 1998. The $11 million decrease in liquid assets represents
normal fluctuation and was not due to any change in policy of management
regarding liquidity. Management recognizes securities may need to be sold in the
future to help fund loan demand and, accordingly, as of September 30, 1999, the
entire securities portfolio of $85.2 million was classified as available for
sale.

CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -----------------

Total shareholder's equity net of unearned ESOP shares was $43,324,170 as of
September 30, 1999, an increase of $1,421,220 over $41,902,950 as of December
31, 1998. The increase was a result of 1999 net income of $3,745,019, offset by
dividends declared of $1,237,160, net change in unrealized depreciation on
securities available for sale, net of tax of $1,207,431, and a reduction in
unearned ESOP shares of $117,954.

The Corporation's subsidiaries exceed the applicable "well capitalized"
regulatory capital requirements at September 30, 1999.

As of September 30, 1999, management is not aware of any current recommendations
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.

IMPACT OF YEAR 2000
- -------------------

There have been no material changes in the Corporation's plans to or status of
addressing the Year 2000 issue. During the first nine months of the year, the
Corporation spent approximately $465,000 of the budgeted $750,000 of Y2K out of
pocket expenses.

All phases of the Y2K plan have been completed. The Corporation has tested its
mission critical business applications for Y2K compliance and has found these
systems to be Y2K ready. The Corporation has developed extensive and detailed
business resumption contingency plans and a liquidity contingency plan. Planned
activities during the final quarter of the calendar year include:

      o         Continued testing of systems
      o         Continued contact with customers and vendors to assess their
                Y2K readiness and its potential impact on the Corporation
      o         Refinement and validation of contingency plans
      o         Employee training in execution of contingency plans
      o         Continued Y2K communication efforts to educate and  update
                employees, directors, shareholders, customers and community
                members and to calm fears which may develop due to
                sensationalized media coverage of the millennium change.

<PAGE>   16

the same period in 1998.

an increase of $1,240,128 (8%) over the same period in 1998. The increase was a

Service charges on deposits increased $168,661 (19%), net gains on sale of loans

September 30, 1999, when compared to the same period of 1998. Salaries and
employee benefits increased $1,031,362 (11%), equipment and occupancy increased
$479,574 (19%) primarily due to increased hardware and software depreciation
related to the September 1998 purchase of RDSI's second mainframe computer and
subsequent growth in the volume of accounts processed and other expenses
decreased $245,458 (5%).

Income tax expense for the nine months was $1,647,569, an increase of $163,431
over the same period in 1998.

The net result of these factors was an increase in net income of $600,210 to

and money market accounts. During the nine months, the increase in rates has
caused many customers to shorten their certificate of deposit maturities,
resulting in an increase of $58 million in rate sensitive liabilities with
