              cautions readers of this Financial Supplement and Form 10-Q not
              to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements which are

              future events.

              Wachovia Corporation ("the corporation") is a southeastern
              interstate bank holding company with dual headquarters in
              Atlanta, Georgia, and Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The
              corporation's principal banking subsidiaries are Wachovia Bank,
              N. A., which maintains operations in Florida, Georgia, North
              Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia, and The First National
              Bank of Atlanta, which provides credit card services. Effective
              July 1, 1998, 1st United Bank, a Florida subsidiary acquired
              through the corporation's merger with 1st United Bancorp in
              November 1997, was merged into Wachovia Bank. On October 27,
              1998, the corporation announced plans to acquire
              Interstate/Johnson Lane Inc., a full-service investment banking
              and securities brokerage firm with offices in Georgia, North
              Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia. The transaction will be
              accounted for on a purchase basis and is expected to close in the
              first half of 1999 subject to regulatory approval and vote by
              Interstate/Johnson Lane shareholders.

              Wachovia's growth strategy includes using acquisitions to gain
              access to additional customers in attractive markets and to
              enhance product and service capabilities. The corporation
              regularly evaluates acquisition opportunities and conducts due
              diligence activities in connection with possible acquisitions. As
              a result, acquisition discussions and, in some cases,
              negotiations may take place and future acquisitions involving
              cash, debt or equity securities may occur. Acquisitions typically
              involve the payment of a premium over book values, and,
              therefore, some dilution of the corporation's book value and net
              income per share may occur in connection with any future
              transactions.

              Economic growth in the U.S. for the third quarter of 1998
              continued the slowing pace set in the previous quarter as turmoil
              in overseas markets and higher domestic wages contributed to
              weakening sales and profits. Based on advance estimates for the
              period, gross domestic product in the third quarter rose 3.3
              percent annualized from the preceding three months after
              increasing 1.8 percent in the second quarter and 5.5 percent in
              the first quarter. Seasonally adjusted unemployment for the
              nation increased to 4.6 percent for the three months from 4.4
              percent in the second period. In response to the slowing growth,
              the Federal Reserve moved to lower short-term interest rates a
              quarter of a percentage point both in September and October.
              Business conditions within Wachovia's primary operating states,
              however, remained generally strong, with seasonally adjusted
              unemployment for the quarter averaging 4.3 percent in Florida, 4
              percent in Georgia, 3.4 percent in North Carolina, 3.5 percent in
              South Carolina and 3.1 percent in Virginia.

              Wachovia's net income for the third quarter of 1998 was $227.367
              million or $1.09 per diluted share compared with $198.922 million
              or $1.00 per diluted share in the same period of 1997. For the
              first nine months of the year, net income totaled $632.604
              million or $3.01 per diluted share versus $589.202 million or
              $2.94 per diluted share a year earlier. Gains in both periods
              were driven by good revenue growth, with total revenues
              increasing $118.461 million or 14.9 percent for the three months
              and $361.011 million or 15.5 percent for the first nine months.
              Results included gains from branch sales in both 1998 and 1997,

              as well as merger-related charges in 1998 associated with the
              corporation's new Virginia and Florida operations. Branch sale
              gains on a pretax basis totaled $17.155 million for the first
              nine months of 1998, with all gains occurring in the first
              quarter, compared with $21.096 million in the same period of 1997
              including $2.437 million in the third quarter. On a pretax basis,
              merger-related charges were $11.934 million for the third period
              of 1998 and $78.351 million year to date. The net after-tax
              impact of the merger-related charges was $7.876 million or $.04
              per diluted share for the three months and $51.094 million or
              $.25 per diluted share for the nine months. Operating net income
              excluding merger-related charges was $235.243 million or $1.13
              per diluted share for the 1998 third quarter and $683.698 million
              or $3.26 per diluted share year to date. Management expects to
              incur remaining integration expenses for its Florida and Virginia
              banking operations of approximately $5 million in the fourth
              quarter of 1998.

              Expanded discussion of the corporation's operating results and
              financial condition is presented in the following narrative with
              accompanying tables. Interest income is stated on a taxable
              equivalent basis, which is adjusted for the tax-favored status of
              earnings from certain loans and securities. References to changes
              in assets and liabilities represent daily averages unless
              otherwise noted. Prior year financial results have been restated
              to reflect the corporation's pooling-of-interests merger with
              Central Fidelity Banks, Inc., effective December 15, 1997 but
              have not been restated for the corporation's purchase
              acquisitions of Jefferson Bankshares, Inc., and 1st United
              Bancorp in the fourth quarter of 1997 and of Ameribank Bancshares
              in the second quarter of 1998.

Net Interest

              Taxable equivalent net interest income increased $63.967 million
Income        or 11.9 percent for the third quarter of 1998 from a year
              earlier and was higher by $194.214 million or 12.3 percent for the
              first nine months. Growth in both periods reflected greater loan
              volume and improvement in the net yield on interest-earning assets
              (defined as taxable equivalent net interest income as a percentage
              of average interest-earning assets). Compared with the second
              quarter of 1998, taxable equivalent net interest income rose
              $7.094 million or 4.8 percent annualized, with the corporation
              benefiting primarily from a higher average earning yield and a
              lower average funding rate. The net yield on interest-earning
              assets expanded 14 basis points for the three months and 11 basis
              points for the first nine months from a year earlier and was up 5
              basis points from the second quarter. Based on loan origination
              activity and interest rates as of the beginning of the fourth
              quarter of 1998, taxable equivalent net interest income is
              expected to expand in the final three months of 1998 from the
              third quarter while the net yield on interest-earning assets is
              expected to moderate.

              Taxable equivalent interest income rose $96.720 million or 8.9
              percent and $337.311 million or 10.6 percent for the three- and
              nine-month periods, respectively. Increased loan volume,
              including additions from purchase acquisitions, primarily drove
              the growth, which benefited also from a higher average earning
              yield. Loans expanded $4.163 billion or 10.5 percent for the
              quarter and $4.849 billion or 12.4 percent year to date, with the
              average rate earned expanding 4 basis points and 6 basis points,
              respectively. Taxable equivalent interest income grew $2.070
              million or less than 1 percent from the second quarter of 1998
              primarily due to a 4 basis point increase in the average loan
              yield.

              Commercial loans, including related real estate categories,
              accounted for most of the loan growth in both periods, rising
              $3.644 billion or 16.4 percent for the third quarter from a year
              earlier and $4.043 billion or 18.7 percent year to date. Solid
              gains occurred in all categories except tax-exempt loans, which
              continued to decline due to the reduced availability of
              tax-exempt financing under current tax laws and to paydowns in
              employee stock ownership plan loans. Taxable commercial loans
              increased $2.240 billion or 19.8 percent for the three months and
              $2.637 billion or 23.9 percent for the nine months. Commercial
              mortgages and construction loans expanded $730 million or 12
              percent and $329 million or 21.3 percent, respectively, for the
              quarter and $852 million or 14.3 percent and $432 million or 30.1
              percent, respectively, year to date. Lease financing, primarily
              consisting of leverage leases and other structured corporate
              transactions, grew $594 million or 58.2 percent for the three
              months and $404 million or 43.9 percent for the nine months,
              while foreign loans were up $398 million or 80.4 percent for the
              third period and $222 million or 45.7 percent year to date.

              The corporation's foreign credits outstanding consist of loans
              and lease financing. Growth in foreign loans was driven partly by
              originations in the corporation's London office to companies
              operating in Europe. At September 30, 1998, foreign loans were
              $985 million, representing 2.2 percent of total loans compared
              with $496 million or 1.2 percent of total loans one year earlier
              and $843 million or 1.9 percent of loans at June 30, 1998.
              Because foreign loans are reported based on the address of the
              borrower and not on the country where security for the credit
              resides, foreign loans as reported do not necessarily indicate
              the corporation's country risk exposure. At September 30, 1998,
              the corporation's country of risk profile for its foreign loan
              portfolio was as follows: Western Europe, $354 million or 36
              percent of total foreign loans; Latin America, $332 million or 34
              percent; the United States, $229 million or 23 percent; and all
              other, $70 million or 7 percent. There were no extensions of
              credit in Russia, and extensions of credit in Asia were
              insignificant. Included in the $1.688 billion of lease financing
              at September 30, 1998 was $742 million of foreign leverage
              leases, all with countries of risk in Western Europe.

              The corporation had no significant concentrations of loans in any
              one industry at September 30, 1998.

              Based on regulatory definitions, commercial real estate loans
              were $8.692 billion or 19 percent of total loans at September 30,
              1998 versus $7.652 billion or 18.8 percent of loans one year
              earlier and $8.632

              billion or 19.4 percent at June 30, 1998. Regulatory definitions
              for commercial real estate include loans which have real estate as
              the collateral but not the primary consideration in a credit risk
              evaluation.

              Consumer loans, including residential mortgages, increased $519
              million or 3 percent for the third period and $806 million or 4.6
              percent for the first nine months. Residential mortgages and
              indirect retail loans, primarily consisting of automobile sales
              financing, substantially accounted for all of the quarter's
              growth, rising $330 million or 4.4 percent and $204 million or
              7.1 percent, respectively. Year to date, consumer loan growth
              occurred primarily in residential mortgages, which were up $635
              million or 8.7 percent and included gains in equity bank lines.
              Credit cards declined slightly for the three months but were
              modestly higher for the first nine months and increased from the
              second quarter. On September 4, 1998, the corporation purchased
              $269 million of credit card receivables from Wells Fargo & Co.
              The acquisition is part of the corporation's consumer growth
              strategy to selectively build its customer base. At September 30,
              1998, managed credit card outstandings were $6.273 billion,
              representing 13.6 percent of total managed loans, versus $6.251
              billion or 15.1 percent of managed loans one year earlier and
              $6.033 billion or 13.4 percent at June 30, 1998. Managed credit
              card amounts included $500 million of securitized loans both at
              September 30, 1998 and June 30, 1998 and $557 million at the end
              of the third quarter of 1997. Additional information on the
              corporation's managed credit card portfolio is presented on
              page 17.

              Period-end loans as of September 30, 1998 and the preceding four
              quarters are shown in the following table.

              Securities, the second largest category of interest-earning
              assets, were substantially unchanged for the third
              quarter from a year earlier but were modestly lower year to date.
              Compared with the second quarter of 1998, securities declined
              $438 million or 3.9 percent, reflecting maturing investments in
              securities available-for-sale. At September 30, 1998, securities
              available-for-sale were $9.075 billion and securities
              held-to-maturity were $1.521 billion, as detailed in the
              following table.

              Marking the securities available-for-sale portfolio at September
              30, 1998 to fair value resulted in an unrealized gain over
              amortized cost of $213.225 million, pretax, and $131.325 million,
              net of tax. Marking the average available-for-sale portfolio to
              fair value resulted in unrealized gains of $133.172 million,
              pretax, and $81.664 million, net of tax, for the third quarter and
              $116.588 million, pretax, and $71.689 million, net of tax, year to
              date. Unrealized gains are included, net of tax, in shareholders'
              equity. Securities held-to-maturity had a fair value of $1.593
              billion at September 30, 1998, representing a $72.594 million
              appreciation over book value.

              Interest expense rose $32.753 million or 6 percent for the third
              quarter and $143.097 million or 8.9 percent year to date. Growth
              in both periods was driven by higher levels of interest-bearing
              liabilities, principally interest-bearing deposits and short-term
              borrowings, with the increase in interest expense offset
              partially by a lower average rate paid. Interest-bearing
              liabilities expanded $4.089 billion or 9.2 percent for the three
              months and $4.779 billion or 10.8 percent for the nine months,
              including additions from purchase acquisitions, while the average
              rate paid declined 15 basis points and 8 basis points,
              respectively. Interest expense in the third quarter decreased
              $5.024 million or 3.4 percent annualized from the preceding three
              months due to reduced levels of interest-bearing liabilities as
              well as a lower average rate paid.

              As part of its funding strategy, the corporation is marketing
              traditional funding products while issuing a variety of debt
              instruments. Traditional funding sources are being broadened
              through marketing of the corporation's Premiere and Business
              Premiere accounts, both of which are high-yield money market
              deposit products; the addition of PC Banking; and significant
              enhancements to the corporation's basic checking products.
              Wholesale funding sources include senior and subordinated debt,
              trust capital securities and a global bank note program.
              Management believes continued flexibility and innovation will be
              required of financial institutions to attract future funding
              through deposit products and alternative sources.

              Interest-bearing deposits grew $2.354 billion or 8 percent for
              the quarter and $2.890 billion or 9.9 percent year to date. Gains
              occurred primarily in savings and money market savings, up $1.270
              billion or 12 percent for the three months and $913 million or
              8.8 percent for the nine months; in demand deposits, higher by
              $646 million or 16.2 percent for the third period and $1.080
              billion or 26.9 percent year to date; and in foreign deposits,
              which expanded $633 million or 36.9 percent for the quarter and
              $968 million or 62 percent for the nine months. Growth in savings
              and money market savings continued to be driven by the
              corporation's Premiere and Business Premiere accounts. The
              increase in interest-bearing foreign deposits reflected recently
              granted deposit-taking capabilities of the corporation's London
              office as well as the attractiveness of foreign deposits relative
              to other wholesale funding sources. Interest-bearing deposits
              were down modestly from the second quarter, largely due to
              declines in higher-rate savings certificates and to some
              moderation in foreign deposits. Gross deposits averaged $39.528
              billion for the third period and $39.781 billion year to date, up
              $3.385 billion or 9.4 percent and $3.828 billion or 10.6 percent,
              respectively, from year-earlier periods. Collected deposits, net
              of float, averaged $37.361 billion for

* Interest income and yields are presented on a fully taxable equivalent basis
  using the federal income tax rate and state tax rates, as applicable,
  reduced by the nondeductible portion of interest expense. Any variance
  attributable jointly to volume and rate changes is allocated to volume and
  rate in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amount of the
  change in each.
** Volume amounts are reported at amortized cost; excludes pretax unrealized
   gains of $133 million in 1998 and $76 million in 1997.

* Interest income and yields are presented on a fully taxable equivalent basis
  using the federal income tax rate and state tax rates, as applicable,
  reduced by the nondeductible portion of interest expense. Any variance
  attributable jointly to volume and rate changes is allocated to volume and
  rate in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amount of the
  change in each.
** Volume amounts are reported at amortized cost; excludes pretax unrealized
   gains of $117 million in 1998 and $54 million in 1997.

              the three months and $37.532 billion for the first nine months,
              higher by $3.130 billion or 9.1 percent and $3.502 billion or 10.3
              percent, respectively, from the same periods in 1997.

              Short-term borrowings rose $1.686 billion or 18.4 percent for the
              quarter and $1.981 billion or 22.4 percent year to date, with all
              categories increasing in both periods. Federal funds purchased
              and securities sold under repurchase agreements were up $533
              million or 7.9 percent for the three months and $903 million or
              13.6 percent for the nine months. Commercial paper expanded $583
              million or 70.9 percent and $476 million or 63.8 percent for the
              quarter and year to date, respectively. Other short-term
              borrowings, primar-ily consisting of short-term bank notes, grew
              $570 million or 35.4 percent for the third period and $602
              million or 41.2 percent for the nine months. Short-term
              borrowings decreased modestly from the second quarter as
              expansion of commercial paper and other short-term borrowings was
              offset by a reduction in federal funds purchased and securities
              sold under repurchase agreements.

              Long-term debt for the three and nine months remained essentially
              unchanged both year over year and from the preceding quarter.
              Medium-term bank notes decreased $489 million or 16.9 percent for
              the quarter from a year earlier and were lower by $447 million or
              14.3 percent year to date. Largely offsetting the decline in
              medium-term bank note funding were higher levels of other
              long-term debt, which consists of senior and subordinated debt
              and trust capital securities. The corporation issued $350 million
              of 10-year subordinated fixed-rate notes on July 29, 1998 and
              $250 million of two-year senior floating-rate notes on September
              18, 1998. On September 30, 1998, the corporation issued $300
              million of three-year senior floating-rate notes. The senior
              notes are rated Aa3 by Moody's and AA- by Standard & Poor's and
              the subordinated notes are rated A1 by Moody's and A+ by Standard
              & Poor's. All three issuances were part of a $2.500 billion shelf
              offering registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission
              on July 15, 1998 for unsecured senior and subordinated debt.
              Trust capital securities at September 30, 1998 totaled $996
              million, reflecting issuances in December 1996 and in January,
              April and June 1997. The trust capital securities are rated aa3
              by Moody's and A by Standard & Poor's and qualify as part of Tier
              I capital under risk-based capital guidelines.

              In July 1998, Wachovia Bank increased the amount of its global
              bank note program from $16 billion to $21.557 billion, which
              includes $3.557 billion of notes previously issued under the
              program. The program consists of issuances with original
              maturities beginning at 7 days. Bank notes with original
              maturities of one year or less are included in other short-term
              borrowed funds, and bank notes with original maturities greater
              than one year are classified as medium-term bank notes under
              long-term debt. Short-term bank notes outstanding at September
              30, 1998 were $1.048 billion with an average cost of 5.52 percent
              and an average maturity of 2.5 months. Medium-term bank notes
              were $2.436 billion and had an average cost of 5.93 percent and
              an average maturity of 3.1 years on the same date. Short-term
              issues under the global bank note program are rated P-1 by
              Moody's and A-1+ by Standard & Poor's, while medium-term issues
              are rated Aa2 by Moody's and AA by Standard & Poor's.

Asset and Liability
              The income stream of the corporation is subject to risk resulting
Management,   from interest rate fluctuations to the extent there is
              a difference between the amount of interest-earning
Interest Rate assets and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities that are
              prepaid, withdrawn, mature or reprice in specified periods.
Sensitivity   The goal of asset and liability Sensitivity management is to
              maintain high quality and consistent growth of net interest
and Liquidity income with acceptable levels of risk to changes in interest
              rates. The corporation seeks to meet this goal by influencing
Management    the maturity and repricing characteristics of the various
              lending and deposit-taking lines of business, by managing
              discretionary balance sheet asset and liability portfolios, and by
              utilizing off-balance sheet financial instruments.

              Interest rate risk management is carried out by Funds Management
              which operates under the policies established by the Finance
              Committee of the corporation's board of directors and the
              guidance of the Management Finance Committee. Rate risk,
              liquidity, capital position and discretionary on- and off-balance
              sheet activity are reviewed quarterly by the Board Finance
              Committee. Interim oversight of the asset and

              liability management function is provided through regular
              meetings of Funds Management managers and the Chief Financial
              Officer. Funds Management personnel carry out day-to-day activity
              within approved risk management guidelines and strategies.

              The corporation uses a number of tools to measure interest rate
              risk, including simulating net interest income under various rate
              scenarios, monitoring the change in present value of the asset
              and liability portfolios under the same rate scenarios and
              monitoring the difference or gap between rate sensitive assets
              and liabilities over various time periods. Management believes
              that rate risk is best measured by simulation modeling which
              calculates expected net interest income based on projected
              interest-earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities,
              off-balance sheet financial instruments and interest rates. The
              model projections are based on historical trends and management's
              expectations of balance sheet growth patterns, spreads to market
              rates, and prepayment behavior for assets and liabilities. The
              Management Finance Committee regularly reviews the assumptions
              used in the model.

              The corporation monitors exposure to a gradual change in rates of
              200 basis points up or down over a rolling 12-month period and an
              interest rate shock of an instantaneous change in rates of 200
              basis points up or down over the same period. The corporation's
              policy limit for the maximum negative impact on net interest
              income from a gradual change in interest rates of 200 basis
              points over 12 months is 7.5 percent. Management generally has
              maintained a risk position well within the policy guideline
              level. As of September 30, 1998, the model indicated that a 200
              basis point gradual rise in rates over 12 months would result in
              approximately a .1 percent decrease in net interest income, while
              a 200 basis point decline in rates over the same period would
              result in approximately a .7 percent decrease in net interest
              income as compared with an unchanged rate environment. Actual
              results will differ from simulated results due to timing,
              magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes and changes in
              market conditions and management strategies, among other factors.
              The corporation maintains trading accounts primarily to
              facilitate customer investment and risk management needs. The
              market risk inherent in these portfolios was immaterial at
              September 30, 1998.

              In addition to on-balance sheet instruments such as securities
              and purchased funds, the corporation uses off-balance sheet
              derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk, liquidity
              and net interest income. Off-balance sheet instruments include
              interest rate swaps, futures and options with indices that
              directly correlate to on-balance sheet instruments. The
              corporation has used off-balance sheet financial instruments,
              principally interest rate swaps, over a number of years and
              believes their use on a sound basis enhances the effectiveness of
              asset and liability and interest rate sensitivity management.

              Off-balance sheet asset and liability derivative transactions are
              based on referenced or notional amounts. At September 30, 1998,
              the corporation had $3.455 billion notional amount of derivatives
              outstanding for asset and liability management purposes. Credit
              risk of off-balance sheet derivative financial instruments is
              equal to the fair value gain of the instrument if a counterparty
              fails to perform. The credit risk is normally a small percentage
              of the notional amount and fluctuates as interest rates move up
              or down. The corporation mitigates this risk by subjecting the
              transactions to the same rigorous approval and monitoring process
              as is used for on-balance sheet credit transactions, by dealing
              in the national market with highly rated counterparties, by
              executing transactions under International Swaps and Derivatives
              Association Master Agreements, and by using collateral
              instruments to reduce exposure where appropriate. Collateral is
              delivered by either party when the fair value of a particular
              transaction or group of transactions with the same counterparty
              on a net basis exceeds an acceptable threshold of exposure. The
              threshold level is determined based on the strength of the
              individual counterparty.

              The fair value of all asset and liability derivative positions
              for which the corporation was exposed to counterparties totaled
              $179 million at September 30, 1998. The fair value of all asset
              and liability derivative positions for which counterparties were
              exposed to the corporation amounted to $28 million on the same
              date. Fair value details and additional asset and liability
              derivative information are included in the following tables.

              Asset and liability management derivatives transactions are
              accounted for following existing hedge accounting rules. As
              discussed under New Accounting Standards, an accounting standard
              was issued in June 1998 that will change the existing hedge
              accounting rules. Under the existing hedge accounting rules, gains
              and losses related to the fair value of derivative contracts used
              for asset and liability management purposes are not recognized
              immediately in earnings. If the hedged or altered balance sheet
              amounts were marked to

              market, the resulting unrealized balance sheet gains or losses
              could be expected to approximately offset unrealized derivatives
              gains and losses.

              To ensure the corporation is positioned to meet immediate and
              future cash demands, management relies on liquidity analysis,
              knowledge of business trends over past economic cycles and
              forecasts of future conditions. Liquidity is maintained through a
              strong balance sheet and operating performance that assures
              market acceptance, as well as through policy guidelines which
              limit the level, maturity and concentration of noncore funding
              sources.

              Through its balance sheet, the corporation generates liquidity on
              the asset side by maintaining significant amounts of securities
              available-for-sale, which may be sold at any time, and by loans
              which may be securitized or sold. Additionally, the corporation
              generates cash through deposit growth, the issuance of bank
              notes, the availability of unused lines of credit and through
              other forms of debt and equity instruments.

              Through policy guidelines, the corporation limits net purchased
              funds to 50 percent of long-term assets, which include net loans
              and leases, securities with remaining maturities over one year
              and net foreclosed real estate. Policy guidelines insure against
              concentrations by maturity of noncore funding sources by limiting
              the cumulative percentage of purchased funds that mature
              overnight, within 30 days and within 90 days. Guidelines also
              require the monitoring of significant concentrations of funds by
              single sources and by type of borrowing category.

Nonperforming
              Nonperforming assets were $171.679 million or .38 percent of
Assets        loans and foreclosed property at September 30, 1998. The total
              was up $47.618 million or 38.4 percent from one year earlier and
              higher by $19.451 million or 12.8 percent from the end of the
              second quarter, primarily due to the addition of one large credit
              to nonaccrual status.

              The largest category of total nonperforming assets is real estate
              related. Real estate nonperforming assets were $127.110 million
              or .78 percent of real estate loans and foreclosed real estate at
              September 30, 1998 compared with $102.987 million or .68 percent
              one year earlier and $109.680 million or .66 percent at the end
              of the second quarter. Included in real estate nonperforming
              assets were real estate nonperforming loans of $105.042 million
              at September 30, 1998, $80.040 million one year earlier and
              $89.533 million at June 30, 1998.

              Commercial real estate nonperforming assets totaled $69.865
              million or .80 percent of related loans and foreclosed real estate
              versus $65.769 million or .86 percent at the end of the third
              quarter of 1997 and $53.168 million or .62 percent at June 30,
              1998. Commercial real estate nonperforming loans were $57.139
              million at September 30, 1998, $51.268 million one year earlier
              and $42.544 million at the close of the second quarter.

Provision and
              The provision for loan losses was $72.809 million for the third
Allowance for quarter and $215.376 million year to date, up $10.053 million or
              16 percent and $27.342 million or 14.5 percent from the same
Loan Losses   respective periods in 1997. Compared with the second quarter of
              1998, the provision increased $4.368 million or 6.4 percent.

              The provision reflects management's assessment of the adequacy of
              the allowance for loan losses to absorb potential write-offs in
              the loan portfolio due to credit deterioration or changes in risk
              profile. Factors considered in this assessment include the
              strength and consistency of the corporation's underwriting
              standards and charge-off policy, current and anticipated economic
              conditions, historical credit loss experience, and the
              composition of the loan portfolio. Credit evaluations are made on
              a cash-flow analysis basis with follow-up credit reviews
              consistently maintained. In addition, the corporation enforces an
              aggressive loan loss policy of early recognition and charge-off
              of troubled credits. Effective with the first quarter of 1998,
              management began implementing as part of its overall credit
              review process assessments of Year 2000 compliance among
              borrowers.

              Net loan losses totaled $72.695 million or .66 percent of average
              loans for the three months, rising $9.960 million or 15.9 percent
              from a year earlier. For the first nine months, net loan losses
              were $215.026 million or .65 percent of average loans, an
              increase of $27.051 million or 14.4 percent. Higher losses in
              credit cards and commercial loans primarily accounted for the
              increases in both periods, with the rise in commercial net loan
              losses largely due to one large charge-off. Net loan losses were
              up $4.472 million or 6.6 percent from the second quarter,
              principally reflecting increased charge-offs in other retail
              loans, lower recoveries in real estate loan losses and the
              write-down of one large commercial credit. Excluding credit
              cards, net loan losses were $11.174 million or .12 percent of
              average loans for the third quarter and $25.638 million or .09
              percent year to date versus $8.352 million or .10 percent and
              $31.186 million or .12 percent, respectively, a year earlier and
              $5.478 million or .06 percent in the second quarter.

              Credit card net loan losses totaled $61.521 million or 4.40
              percent of average credit card loans for the quarter and $189.388
              million or 4.49 percent year to date, up $7.138 million or 13.1
              percent and $32.599 million or 20.8 percent, respectively, from a
              year earlier. Commercial net charge-offs were $3.084 million or
              .08 percent of average related loans for the three months and
              $5.827 million or .05 percent of loans for the nine months,
              higher by $3.386 million and $3.361 million from the same
              respective periods in 1997. Selected data on the corporation's

Noninterest
              Total other operating revenue, which excludes securities sales,
Income        increased $54.494 million or 21.3 percent for the third quarter
              from a year earlier and was up $166.797 million or 22.5 percent
              year to date. All major categories advanced in both periods, with
              growth strongest in capital markets income, service charges on
              deposit accounts, trust services, mortgage fees, electronic
              banking and investment fees. Included in total other operating
              revenue were branch sales gains of $17.155 million in the first
              nine months of 1998, all of which occurred in the first quarter,
              compared with gains of $21.096 million in the same period of 1997,
              including $2.437 million in the third quarter. Excluding branch
              sales gains, total other operating

 
                                       18

              revenue for the third period expanded $56.931 million or 22.4
              percent year over year and was higher by $170.738 million or 23.7
              percent year to date. Total other operating revenue decreased
              modestly from the second quarter but is expected to expand
              moderately in the final three months of 1998 from the third
              quarter based on anticipated growth in deposit account service
              charges, credit card fee income, investment services, mortgage
              fees and electronic banking.

              Capital markets income grew $22.631 million or approximately 151
              percent for the third period from a year earlier and expanded
              $60.557 million or approximately 181 percent for the first nine
              months. Growth in both periods occurred largely in corporate
              financing and in derivatives activities, with increased business
              in consulting services also contributing to the gain year to
              date. In June, Wachovia received Tier I powers for its Section 20
              capital markets subsidiary. These powers enable the subsidiary to
              engage in underwriting and dealing in municipal revenue bonds,
              commercial paper, mortgage related securities and consumer
              related receivables, all of investment quality rating. Tier II
              powers permitting further expansion into corporate debt and
              equity securities without investment grade limitation are
              expected to be effective in 1999.

              Service charge revenues on deposit accounts grew $8.090 million
              or 10.6 percent and $22.759 million or 10.1 percent for the three
              and nine months, respectively. Higher levels of overdraft
              charges, commercial analysis fees and demand account service
              charges accounted for most of the increases in both periods.

              Fees for trust services were up $7.532 million or 17.3 percent
              for the quarter and $17.869 million or 13.9 percent year to date.
              Gains were driven, in part, by good growth in Personal Financial
              Services and in fees associated with the Wachovia Funds, the
              corporation's proprietary family of mutual funds. Assets for the
              Wachovia Funds totaled $6.262 billion at September 30, 1998
              compared with $5.050 billion one year earlier.

              Mortgage fee income rose $6.540 million or 114.5 percent for the
              three months and $15.422 million or 96.2 percent for the nine
              months. Growth primarily reflected higher mortgage origination
              activity, increased gains on loans sold to the secondary market
              and gains on the sale of mortgage servicing rights.

              Electronic banking revenue grew $2.608 million or 15.5 percent
              for the quarter and $7.226 million or 15.3 percent year to date,
              primarily fueled by increased debit card usage and by increased
              ATM foreign access fees.

              Investment fee income expanded $991 thousand or 10.2 percent for
              the third period and $6.858 million or 25.7 percent for the first
              nine months. Higher fees from customer mutual fund trading and
              brokerage commissions accounted for the gains.

              Credit card fee income was up slightly for both the three and
              nine months following a modest decline in the second quarter from
              a year earlier. The corporation anticipates credit card fee
              income to expand in the final three months of 1998 from third
              quarter's level.

              Remaining combined categories of total other operating revenue,
              excluding gains from branch sales, increased $8.409 million or
              19.6 percent for the third period and $38.966 million or 32.3
              percent year to date. Insurance premiums and commissions were
              modestly higher for both the three and nine months. Bankers'
              acceptance and letter of credit fees rose slightly for the
              quarter and were up $2.706 million or 10.2 percent year to date.
              Other service charges and fees essentially were flat for the
              third quarter and advanced modestly for the nine months, while
              other income rose $7.997 million or 50.9 percent for the three
              months and $34.718 million or 83.3 percent for the nine months.

              Including securities sales, total noninterest income increased
              $60.289 million or 23.4 percent for the quarter and $176.685
              million or 23.7 percent year to date. Securities sales had net
              gains of $6.886 million for the three months and $13.035 million
              for the nine months compared with $1.091 million and $3.147
              million, respectively, in 1997.

Noninterest
              Total noninterest expense grew $67.102 million or 15.8 percent
Expense       for the third quarter and $269.343 million or 21.8 percent year to
              date. Included in total noninterest expense for 1998 were merger-
              related charges of $11.934 million, pretax, for the three months
              and $78.351 million, pretax, for the first nine months for systems
              conversions, signage changes and employee benefits expenses
              associated with the corporation's new Virginia and Florida
              operations. On a core operating basis excluding
              integration-related charges, noninterest expense increased $55.168
              million or 13 percent for the third quarter and $190.992 million
              or 15.5 percent year to date but declined $5.676 million or 4.7
              percent annualized from the second quarter. Remaining integration
              charges for the Florida and Virginia banking operations are
              expected to total approximately $5 million, pretax, with the full
              amount to be recognized in the final three months of 1998.
              Excluding merger-related charges, noninterest expense is expected
              to decrease in the fourth quarter from the third quarter based on
              anticipated reductions in personnel costs, advertising and other
              expense.

              Total personnel expense was up $32.930 million or 14.3 percent
              for the third period and $124.505 million or 18.8 percent year to
              date. Salaries expense increased $30.808 million or 16.2 percent
              for the three months and $112.484 million or 20.8 percent for the
              nine months, reflecting increased incentive pay for
              revenue-generating businesses and a higher overall salary base.
              Employee benefits expense rose $2.122 million or 5.3 percent for
              the quarter and $12.021 million or 10 percent year to date,
              primarily due to growth in medical benefits costs and to
              increased payroll taxes for a larger base of employees.

              Combined net occupancy and equipment expense rose $7.342 million
              or 11.1 percent for the three months and $25.743 million or 13.4
              percent for the nine months. Net occupancy expense increased
              $5.080 million or 17 percent for the quarter and $16.831 million
              or 19.6 percent year to date reflecting, in part, growth in
              building depreciation expense and operating expenses of acquired
              companies. Equipment expense was up $2.262 million or 6.2 percent
              and $8.912 million or 8.4 percent for the three and nine months,
              respectively, with the rise in both periods largely due to higher
              depreciation and equipment leasing costs.

              Remaining combined categories of noninterest expense, excluding
              merger-related charges, grew $14.896 million or 11.6 percent for
              the quarter and $40.744 million or 10.7 percent year to date.
              Amortization expense of intangible assets accounted for more than
              half of the growth in both periods, rising $7.493 million for the
              three months and $21.308 million for the nine months on increases
              primarily of goodwill and deposit base intangibles from purchase
              acquisitions. Partially offsetting the growth was a reduction in
              outside data processing, programming and software expense
              primarily attributable to lower Year 2000 costs.

Year
              The change in date to the year 2000 from 1999 will cause data
2000          recognition problems in computers, software and facility
              operations dependent on computer chip devices due to programming
              standards that historically limited data date fields to two
              digits. In late 1995, the corporation initiated a formal
              evaluation of Year 2000 issues, establishing in the early months
              of 1996 a full-time project team to assess and address both
              internal and external risks associated with the change in date
              event. The project team is in the latter stages of executing a
              Year 2000 readiness plan consisting of five phases: problem
              awareness; identification of affected systems, functions and
              facilities; conversion or replacement of identified areas to Year
              2000 compliant standards; testing; and implementation.

              The corporation's readiness plan encompasses both information
              technology systems and computer chip embedded functions, such as
              those operating facilities including elevators, security systems,
              and building heating and cooling. In 1996, the corporation
              completed its awareness and identification phases, extending and
              completing the processes in 1997 for recent merger partners. As
              of September 30, 1998, 99 percent of all information technology
              systems had been converted. While regulatory guidelines require
              conversion only of mission critical systems, the corporation is
              converting all information technology systems and is scheduled to
              complete the process by November 30, 1998. For computer chip
              embedded functions, the corporation is replacing noncompliant
              functions essential to business operations and plans to have all
              essential functions replaced and tested by year-end 1998.

              In-house testing of information technology systems currently is
              underway, with testing completed on approximately 67 percent of
              all applications at September 30, 1998. Testing is done in both a
              21st century and 20th century date environment before systems are
              returned to production to ensure data accuracy and consistency.
              All exceptions to testing results are resolved before further
              testing is permitted. Management has chosen to implement
              converted systems back into production as systems are tested to
              permit greater

 
                                       21

              flexibility in the event of future system flaws or failures. The
              percentage of systems implemented, therefore, closely
              approximates the percentage tested.

              The corporation also is working to assess and address Year 2000
              readiness on the part of external entities, particularly critical
              vendors and significant credit customers. Identification and
              monitoring of external entities began in 1996 and includes
              surveys with follow-up reviews and contacts. Substantially all of
              the corporation's vendors have responded to management's surveys
              regarding Year 2000 readiness, with approximately 70 percent
              compliant as of September 30, 1998. The project team is
              continuing to monitor the progress of remaining noncompliant
              vendors as well as the status of large corporate borrowers
              identified as potentially at risk. The corporation will conduct
              testing with external entities in 1999 as they become Year 2000
              ready, with some limited testing already occurring in 1998.

              Management estimates that total Year 2000 project costs will be
              approximately $80 million, with $60 million having been spent
              through September 30, 1998, including $8 million in the third
              quarter and $22 million in the first nine months of 1998. The
              total projected cost is up from $55 million estimated earlier due
              to additional expenditures for internal testing. The
              corporation's remaining Year 2000 project costs are not expected
              to have a material impact on Wachovia's results of operations,
              liquidity or capital resources.

              The corporation faces a number of risks related to the Year 2000
              date change event including project management risks, legal risks
              and financial risks. Project management risks refer primarily to
              the failure to adequately assess Year 2000 planning and resource
              needs, resulting in under- or over-allotment of resources
              assigned to complete the project work, missed deadlines and
              estimation errors. Legal risks include the failure to meet
              contractual service agreements, leading to possible punitive
              actions including those of a regulatory nature. Financial risks
              concern the possibility of lost revenues, asset quality
              deterioration or even business failure. The corporation conducted
              a project management risk assessment in early 1997 and is in the
              process of addressing its legal and financial risks.

              Management of the date change event entails additional risks
              separate from those of project management. Major risks associated
              with the date change event include a shut down of voice and data
              communication systems due to failure by switching systems,
              satellites, or telephone companies; excessive cash withdrawal
              activity; ATM failures; cash couriers delayed or not available;
              problems with international accounts or offices, including
              inaccurate or delayed information or inaccessibility to account
              data; and government offices or facilities not opening or
              operating. The corporation has identified 60 risks associated
              with the date change event and is in the process of developing
              contingency plans for each major risk.

              The corporation is addressing contingency planning for the date
              change event from both an internal and external perspective and
              from a preevent and post-event standpoint. This enables
              management to determine both the level of control over mitigating
              a risk and the time period the corporation would be impacted.
              Internal, preevent contingency plans were developed in 1997 and
              have been implemented on three occasions. External, preevent
              contingency plans focused on vendor readiness to determine the
              need for alternative vendors. Internal, post-event contingency
              plans will focus on implementing alternative plans if problems
              occur with application systems, infrastructure components or
              branch equipment. External, post-event contingency plans will
              focus on actions that can be taken if mission critical service
              providers such as voice and data communication systems experience
              difficulties. The corporation expects to have formal contingency
              plans for the date change event and post-event risks developed by
              year-end 1998.

              The corporation believes the actions it is taking should reduce
              the risks posed by Year 2000 challenges to its own systems.
              Management recognizes that date change event problems will occur
              with external entities, impacting the corporation due to the
              interrelatedness of its business.

Income
              Applicable income taxes rose $20.481 million or 21.8 percent for
Taxes         the quarter from a year earlier and were up $39.786 million or
              14.6 percent year to date. Income taxes computed at the statutory
              rate are reduced primarily by the assumed tax effect of interest
              income earned on state and municipal loans and debt securities.
              Also, within certain limitations, one-half of the interest income
              earned on qualifying employee stock ownership plan loans is exempt
              from federal taxes. The interest earned on certain state and
              municipal debt instruments is exempt from federal taxes and in
              some cases state taxes. The tax-exempt nature of these assets
              provides both an attractive return for the corporation and
              substantial interest savings for local governments and their
              constituents.

New Accounting
              In December 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Standards     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 127, "Deferral of
              the Effective Date of Certain Provisions of FASB Statement No.
              125, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 125" (FASB 127). FASB 127
              delayed until 1998 certain provisions of FASB 125 that deal with
              repurchase agreements, securities lending and other similar
              transactions and pledged collateral. Adoption of FASB 127 was not
              material.

              In June 1997, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
              130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" (FASB 130), was issued and
              establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive
              income and its components. FASB 130 requires comprehensive income
              and its components, as recognized under the accounting standards,
              to be displayed in a financial statement with the same prominence
              as other financial statements. The disclosure requirements of
              FASB 130 have been included in the corporation's consolidated
              statements of shareholders' equity.

              Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures
              about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" (FASB
              131), also issued in June 1997, establishes new standards for
              reporting information about operating segments in annual and
              interim financial statements. The standard also requires
              descriptive information about the way the operating segments are
              determined, the products and services provided by the segments
              and the nature of differences between reportable segment
              measurements and those used for the consolidated enterprise. This
              standard is effective for years beginning after December 15,
              1997. Adoption in interim financial statements is not required
              until the year after initial adoption, however comparative prior
              period information is required. FASB 131 will be adopted, as
              required, beginning with year-end 1998. The disclosure
              requirements will have no impact on the corporation's financial
              position or results of operations.

              In March 1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of
              the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
              Statement of Position 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer
              Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use" (SOP 98-1),
              which provides guidance as to when it is or is not appropriate to
              capitalize the cost of software developed or obtained for
              internal use. The corporation adopted SOP 98-1 effective January
              1, 1998; the effect was not material.

              In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
              Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting
              for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" (FASB 133).
              FASB 133 establishes new accounting and reporting requirements
              for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
              instruments embedded in other contracts and hedging activities.
              The standard requires all derivatives to be measured at fair
              value and recognized as either assets or liabilities in the
              statement of condition. Under certain conditions, a derivative
              may be specifically designated as a hedge. Accounting for the
              changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended
              use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Adoption of
              the standard is required for the corporation's December 31, 2000
              financial statements with early adoption allowed as of the
              beginning of any quarter after June 30, 1998. Management is in
              the process of assessing the impact and period of adoption of the
              standard. Adoption is not expected to result in a material
              financial impact.

              At September 30, 1998, assets totaled $65.574 billion, including
              $58.164 billion of interest-earning assets and $45.629 billion of
              loans. Comparable amounts one year earlier were $58.041 billion of
              assets, $51.986 billion of interest-earning assets and $40.748
              billion of loans. At June 30, 1998, assets were $64.727 billion,
              interest-earning assets were $57.303 billion and loans were

              Deposits were $38.807 billion at September 30, 1998, including
              $31.072 billion of interest-bearing deposits, representing 80.1
              percent of the total. Deposits one year earlier were $36.911
              billion, with interest-bearing deposits of $29.471 billion or
              79.8 percent of the total, and at June 30, 1998, deposits were

              Shareholders' equity was $5.229 billion at September 30, 1998, up
              $712 million or 15.8 percent from $4.517 billion one year
              earlier. Included in shareholders' equity at the end of the third
              quarter of 1998 was $747.744 million from common stock issued in
              connection with the corporation's fourth quarter 1997 purchase
              acquisitions of Jefferson Bankshares and 1st United Bancorp.
              Purchase transactions consummated during the second quarter of
              1998 resulted in the issuance of 1.099 million shares of common
              stock with a corresponding increase in shareholders' equity of
              $83.313 million. Shareholders' equity at September 30, 1998 also
              included unrealized gains of $131.325 million, net of tax, on
              securities available-for-sale marked to fair value compared with
              $68.657 million, net of tax, one year earlier. On June 23, the
              corporation's board of directors authorized the repurchase of up
              to 12 million shares of the corporation's common stock effective
              through January 28, 2000. During the third quarter of 1998, the
              corporation repurchased a total of 4,221,400 shares of its common
              stock at an average price of $82.563 per share for a total cost
              of $348.530 million. At its meeting on October 23, 1998, the
              corporation's board of directors declared a fourth quarter
              dividend of $.49 per share, payable December 1 to shareholders of
              record as of November 6. The dividend is higher by 11.4 percent
              from $.44 per share paid in the same quarter of 1997. For the
              full year, the dividend will total $1.86 per share, a 10.7
              percent increase from $1.68 per share in 1997.

              Intangible assets at September 30, 1998 totaled $688.018 million,
              consisting of $537.398 million of goodwill, $97.308 million of
              deposit base intangibles, $42.079 million of purchased credit
              card premiums, $10.906 million of mortgage servicing rights and
              $327 thousand of other intangibles. Intangible assets one year
              earlier were $112.068 million, with $45.828 million of goodwill,
              $51.676 million of deposit base intangibles, $13.989 million of
              mortgage servicing rights and $575 thousand of other intangibles
              including

              purchased credit card premiums. Goodwill and deposit base
              intangibles increased from the end of the third quarter of 1997
              due to purchase acquisitions of Jefferson Bankshares and 1st
              United Bancorp in the fourth quarter of 1997 and of Ameribank
              Bancshares in the second quarter of 1998. Purchased credit card
              premiums rose due to the acquisition of receivables from Wells
              Fargo & Co. in September 1998.

              On January 1, 1999, eleven member countries of the European Union
              will establish the Euro as their common legal currency and
              establish a fixed conversion rate between their current sovereign
              currencies and the Euro. Management has a risk assessment
              committee that has been examining the risks associated with the
              upcoming Euro conversion such as the adequacy of information
              technology systems, currency risk and the competitive impact of
              cross-border price transparency. Based on the findings of the
              risk assessment committee, management does not expect the impact
              of the Euro conversion to have a material adverse impact on the
              corporation's financial condition or results of operations.

              Regulatory agencies divide capital into Tier I (consisting of
              shareholders' equity and certain cumulative preferred stock
              instruments less ineligible intangible assets) and Tier II
              (consisting of the allowable portion of the reserve for loan
              losses and certain long-term debt) and measure capital adequacy
              by applying both capital levels to a banking company's
              risk-adjusted assets and off-balance sheet items. Regulatory
              requirements presently specify that Tier I capital should exclude
              the market appreciation or depreciation of securities
              available-for-sale arising from marking the securities portfolio
              to fair value. In addition to these capital ratios, regulatory
              agencies have established a Tier I leverage ratio which measures
              Tier I capital to average assets less ineligible intangible
              assets.

              Regulatory guidelines require a minimum of total capital to
              risk-adjusted assets ratio of 8 percent with at least one-half
              consisting of tangible common shareholders' equity and a minimum
              Tier I leverage ratio of 3 percent. Banks which meet or exceed a
              Tier I ratio of 6 percent, a total capital ratio of 10 percent
              and a Tier I leverage ratio of 5 percent are considered well
              capitalized by regulatory standards. It is the policy of the
              corporation that it and its banking subsidiaries be well
              capitalized at all times.

              At September 30, 1998, the corporation's Tier I to risk-adjusted
              assets ratio was 8.22 percent and total capital to risk-adjusted
              assets was 11.30 percent. The Tier I leverage ratio was 8.67
              percent. Included in the capital ratios at September 30, 1998 was
              $996.274 million of trust capital securities versus $995.899
              million one year earlier.
