Notes to Condensed Consolidated Unaided Financial Statements
Note 1. 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 for Form 10Q and Rule 10-01 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 nine months ended September 30, 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that are expected for the
year ended December 31, 1997. For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in
the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1996.
On June 28, 1996, the Board of Directors authorized a five-for-one
stock split, thereby increasing the total number of shares authorized
to 1,500,000 and the total number of shares issued and outstanding to
1,300,000. All references in the accompanying financial statements
have been restated to reflect the stock split.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Farmers & Merchants Bancorp, Inc. was incorporated on February 25,
1985, under the laws of the State of Ohio. Farmers & Merchants
Bancorp, Inc., and its subsidiaries The Farmers & Merchants State Bank
and Farmers & Merchants Life Insurance Company are engaged in
commercial banking and life and disability insurance, respectively.
The executive offices of Farmers & Merchants Bancorp, Inc. are located
at 307-11 North Defiance Street, Archbold, Ohio 43502.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity has continued to be enhanced by the generation of cash
through operations, primarily by reduction in expenses, and the
collection of interest income from productive assets.
The rate of increase for capital expenditures has slowed with the
completion of the renovation of the main office and the implementation
of the new proof system. There will be reasonable increases in this
area due to the major renovation of one of the branch offices.
During the first nine months of 1997 the bank's loan portfolio has
increased $18,235,000. This represents a 5% increase. This was the
primary use of cash over the period. An increase of $2,524,000 in
deposits was noted for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. This
represents a 1% increase. A concerted effort is being implemented to
attract more "core" deposits.
The following is a list of five capital ratios as they are calculated
from the September 30, 1997 financial statements:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Primary Ratio 10.33%
Total Capital Ratio 11.99%
Risk Based Capital Tier 1 13.33%
Risk Based Capital Tier 2 17.37%
Stockholders' Equity/Total Assets 9.31%
