NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
On January 1, 1996, ChoiceOne Bank acquired Bradford Insurance Centre, Ltd.
("Bradford Insurance") in a tax-free exchange of stock. Under the terms of
the merger agreement, 20,610 shares of 1st Community Bancorp, Inc. common
stock were exchanged for all of the outstanding shares of Bradford
Insurance. The transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests.
To account for the effect of the transaction, prior periods' consolidated
balance sheets have been retroactively restated for the assets, liabilities
and shareholders' equity of Bradford Insurance.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Registrant and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, ChoiceOne
Bank and ChoiceOne Insurance Agencies, Inc., after elimination of
significant intercompany transactions and accounts. The name of Sparta
State Bank was changed to ChoiceOne Bank effective in the second quarter of
1996. The name of Bradford Insurance Centre, Ltd. was also changed to
ChoiceOne Insurance Agencies, Inc. in the second quarter.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information, prevailing practices within the banking industry
and the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310 of Regulation S-B.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. The accompanying consolidated financial statements
reflect all adjustments ordinary in nature which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Consolidated Balance
Sheets as of September 30, 1996, and December 31, 1995, the Consolidated
Statements of Income for the three- and nine-month periods ended
September 30, 1996, and September 30, 1995, and the Consolidated
Statements of Cash Flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30,
1996, and September 30, 1995. Operating results for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1996.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the

nine months of 1996, 464,923 for the third quarter of 1995 and 474,347 for
the first nine months of 1995.

the time the dividend was paid. The number of shares outstanding has been
adjusted for the issuance of 20,610 shares in January 1996, the 20% stock
split paid in December 1995 and the repurchase of stock in April 1995. The
number of shares outstanding was 482,710 for the cash dividends paid in the
first three quarters of 1996, 464,923 for the cash dividend paid in the

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
The following discussion is designed to provide a review of the financial
condition and results of operations of 1st Community Bancorp, Inc. (the
"Registrant") and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries,
ChoiceOne Bank (the "Bank") and ChoiceOne Insurance Agencies, Inc. This
discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and related footnotes.
NET INCOME AND RETURN ON AVERAGE ASSETS AND SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
The Registrant's net income increased $41,000 or 11% in the third quarter
of 1996 compared to 1995 and has risen $149,000 or 14% in the first nine
months of 1996 compared to the first nine months of the prior year. The
improvement in both the third quarter and first nine months of 1996
resulted from higher net interest income and other income, the effect of
which was partially offset by growth in the provision for loan losses and
other expenses.
Approximately 85% of the increase in net interest income in 1996 was caused
by growth in average interest-earning assets. The remainder was
attributable to a slightly wider spread between interest rates earned on
interest-earning assets and interest rates paid on interest-bearing
liabilities than in the comparable period of the prior year. The higher
provision for loan losses was due to both loan growth and higher loan
chargeoffs in 1996 than 1995. The majority of the change in other income
and other expenses resulted from the inclusion of income and expense
from ChoiceOne Insurance Agencies, Inc. effective January 1, 1996.
The return on average assets was 1.38% for the first nine months of 1996,
compared to 1.37% for the same period in 1995. The return on average
shareholders' equity was 11.78% for the first three quarters of 1996,
compared to 11.14% for the comparable period of the prior year.
CASH DIVIDENDS
Cash dividends declared in the third quarter of 1996 were $169,000 or $.35
per common share, which represents a $.08 per share or 30% increase
compared to the dividend paid in the same period of the prior year. The
cash dividends paid in the first nine months of 1996 were $495,000 or $1.02
per share, which was $.25 per share or 32% more than the dividends paid in
the same period of 1995. Cash dividends per share in 1995 have been
adjusted for the 6-for-5 stock split paid in December 1995. The cash
dividend payout percentage for the first three quarters of 1996 was 39.85%,
compared to 33.15% for the same period of 1995.

NET INTEREST INCOME
As shown in Tables 1 and 2, tax equivalent net interest income increased
$567,000 in the first nine months of 1996 compared to the same period of
1995. The increase primarily resulted from growth in the Registrant's
loan portfolio from 1995 to 1996. Average loans for the first three
quarters of 1996 increased $17,626,000 over the average for the first
three quarters of 1995. This growth caused interest income from loans
to be $1,283,000 higher for the first nine months of 1996. Loan interest
income was also affected by a $102,000 increase in loan fees during the
first nine months of 1996 compared to the same period of 1995.
Approximately 70% of the fee increase resulted from the Bank's new
accounts receivable financing program. The increase in loan income was
offset by declines in interest income from both taxable and nontaxable
securities. The average balance decreased in both of these categories
as amounts received from maturing securities were used to fund loan
growth both in 1995 and 1996.
The mix of interest-bearing liabilities has changed significantly from 1995
to 1996. Average time deposits increased $4,675,000 and Federal Home Loan
Bank advances increased $5,796,000. Federal Home Loan Bank advances were
shown as a separate item for the first time this quarter in Tables 1 and 2
because they have become a significant source of loan growth funding.
Little change occurred in the other interest-bearing liability categories.
The growth in time deposits reflected depositors' preference for the
higher interest rates offered by this type of account. The increase in
Federal Home Loan Bank advances reflects the extent to which the Bank was
unable to fund loan growth through deposit growth or securities maturities.
Table 1 documents that the net interest income spread was 4.40% for the
first nine months of 1996, compared to 4.25% for the same period in the
prior year. The gain was caused by a 29-basis-point increase in the
average rate earned on interest-earning assets, while the average rate
paid on interest-bearing liabilities went up only 14 basis points. The
13 basis point increase in the average interest rate on loans was the
only interest-earning asset category that has contributed significantly
to interest income in 1996. The increase in the average loan rate resulted
from higher rates earned on consumer and residential real estate mortgage
loans, which was offset by lower rates on commercial and agricultural loans.
The average interest rate on time deposits was the only interest-bearing
liability interest rate that increased from 1995 to 1996. This increase was
due primarily to competitive pressures within the Bank's market area. The
rates on all other interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 1995 to 1996.
PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The allowance for loan losses increased $123,000 from December 31, 1995,
to September 30, 1996. The allowance was 1.20% of total loans at
-23-
<PAGE> 24
September 30, 1996, compared to 1.42% at December 31, 1995. The provision
for loan losses was higher in both the third quarter and first nine months
of 1996 than 1995. Approximately $84,000 of the increase in the provision
for loan losses in the first three quarters of 1996 was attributable to
higher net chargeoffs than the prior year. The remainder of the increase
was due to a greater amount of loan growth in 1996 than 1995.
Chargeoffs and recoveries for those loan categories with activity in the
periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 were as set forth below. There
were no chargeoffs or recoveries in the construction real estate mortgage
loan category in the first nine months of 1996 or 1995.

======== ======= ======= =======
</TABLE>
The amount of chargeoffs which the Bank will experience in the remainder of
1996 will be dependent on the extent to which business and consumer
borrowers are affected by the local economy and on many other economic
factors. As chargeoffs, changes in the level of nonperforming loans, and
loan growth occur in the remainder of 1996, the provision and allowance for
loan losses will be reviewed by the Registrant s management and adjusted as
believed necessary.
OTHER INCOME
Total other income increased $202,000 in the third quarter of 1996 and
$580,000 in the first nine months of 1996 compared to 1995. This was
primarily attributable to insurance commissions income from the Registrant's
new insurance subsidiary.
OTHER EXPENSES
Total other expenses increased $357,000 in the third quarter of 1996 and
$794,000 in the first nine months of 1996 compared to 1995. Of the growth
-24-
<PAGE> 25
in the first three quarters of 1996, $613,000 was related to expenses of
the Registrant's new insurance subsidiary. These additional subsidiary
expenses will continue for the rest of 1996. The remaining $181,000
increase was due to expenses related to the name changes of the
Registrant's subsidiaries, expenses related to the Bank's two new branches
and general expense growth.
SECURITIES
There were only $1,506,000 of securities purchased in the first nine months
of 1996. The level of securities purchases has been limited because
amounts received from maturing securities have been used to fund the
Registrant's loan growth. In the third quarter of 1996, the Registrant
began to purchase securities to replace maturing securities. Purchases
will continue to occur in future quarters to the extent believed prudent to
provide eligible collateral for securities sold under agreements to
repurchase. The Registrant s securities portfolio will also serve as a
secondary source of liquidity for loan and deposit needs.
LOANS
Total loans grew $9,854,000 in the third quarter of 1996 which continued
the strong growth experienced in the first two quarters. Commercial,
construction real estate mortgage, residential real estate mortgage and
consumer loans experienced increases of $3,755,000, $1,650,000, $994,000
and $3,281,000, respectively, in the third quarter of 1996. The growth
in commercial loans resulted from a continued strong local economy which
has increased loan demand and the Bank's customer calling program which
has concentrated on business customers. The increase in construction and
residential real estate mortgages was due to increased marketing and a
calling program focused on area realtors and builders. The higher consumer
loan balance was caused by strong demand in indirect automobile lending.
Loan growth in the remainder of 1996 and into 1997 will be affected
primarily by interest rates and by competition within the Bank's local
market area. The calling programs will continue to be used in all loan
areas to attempt to continue and stimulate demand. The Bank intends to
continue using new marketing strategies to enhance the Bank's effectiveness
in remaining competitive in residential real estate mortgage lending. It is
planned that Federal Housing Administration mortgage lending will be added
to the Bank's product line in the fourth quarter. In the consumer loan
category, direct mail advertising and telemarketing are planned to stimulate
demand for direct loans while management intends to emphasize development
of its indirect loan portfolio.
The Registrant implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan," on January 1,
1995. The statement requires that management review the loan portfolio for
-25-
<PAGE> 26
possible impaired loans. In addition to this requirement, management also
monitors the portfolio for nonperforming loans. Nonperforming loans are
comprised of (1) loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis, (2) loans, not
included in nonaccrual loans, which are contractually past due 90 days or
more as to interest or principal payments, and (3) loans, not included in
nonaccrual or loans past due 90 days or more, which are considered troubled
debt restructurings. The balances of the three nonperforming categories as
of September 30, 1996, and December 31, 1995, were as follows:

DEPOSITS
Total deposits declined in the third quarter of 1996 from the levels
attained in the first two quarters of the year, although total deposits for
the nine months ended September 30, 1996 increased from December 31, 1995.
The third quarter decrease was caused by a $2,248,000 reduction in interest-
bearing transaction accounts; demand deposits and time deposits were up
slightly during the quarter. Demand deposits and time deposits are the
only deposit categories which have experienced growth in the first three
quarters of 1996. Part of the increase in demand deposits has resulted
from commercial deposits obtained from new commercial loan clients. The
increase in the time deposits balance has been primarily due to the
attractiveness to depositors of the higher interest rates offered by these
products.
The Bank's management plans to attempt to stimulate deposit growth in the
remainder of 1996. Part of the officer call program will focus on the
generation of new commercial deposits. The Bank's two new branches will
also be used to attempt to obtain deposits.
-26-
<PAGE> 27
SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
Total shareholders' equity increased $220,000 in the third quarter of 1996
and has increased $399,000 since December 31, 1995. The equity growth in
1996 has been caused by retained earnings. The effect of retained earnings
has been offset by funds used to purchase the Registrant's stock and a
decrease in net unrealized gain or loss on securities available for sale.
The decrease in the market value adjustment for securities was attributable
to higher medium- and long-term interest rates, the effect of which caused
a decline in the market value of portfolio securities.
Shareholders' equity as a percentage of assets was 10.56% as of September
30, 1996, compared to 12.49% as of December 31, 1995. The decrease in the
equity to assets ratio is consistent with management's desire to more
effectively use shareholders' equity by leveraging it through asset growth.
The minimum regulatory capital percentages are 3% for the leverage ratio,
4% for the Tier 1 capital ratio and 8% for the total risk-based capital
ratio. The Registrant's regulatory capital levels as of September 30,
1996, were as follows:
<TABLE>

combined) $14,971,000 15.68%
</TABLE>
CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Registrant issued 20,610 shares of its common stock effective January
1, 1996, for the Bank's acquisition of Bradford Insurance (now ChoiceOne
Insurance Agencies, Inc.). The Bank plans to construct a new branch office
in Cedar Springs beginning in the fourth quarter of 1996. The expected
cost of land, building and equipment approximates $750,000.
Management believes that the current level of capital is adequate to take
advantage of potential opportunities that may arise for the Registrant and
the Bank.
-27-
<PAGE> 28
LIQUIDITY AND RATE SENSITIVITY
Cash and cash equivalents increased $1,421,000 in the third quarter of 1996
and has decreased $422,000 in the first nine months of 1996. The
Registrant's management believes that the current level of liquidity is
sufficient to meet the Bank's normal operating needs. This belief is based
upon the availability of deposit growth, maturities of securities, normal
loan repayments, income retention, federal funds which can be purchased
from correspondent banks and advances available from the Federal Home Loan
Bank of Indianapolis.
Table 3 presents the maturity and repricing schedule for the Registrant's
rate-sensitive assets and liabilities for selected time periods. The
Registrant's cumulative rate-sensitive liabilities exceeded its cumulative
rate-sensitive assets by $11,648,000 at the one-year repricing point as of
September 30, 1996. The negative amount at the end of the third quarter
was due primarily to the classification of all interest-bearing transaction
accounts and savings deposits in the 0-to-3-month repricing category. The
rates paid on these deposit types can be immediately repriced. Management
believes that these types of accounts are not as sensitive to changes in
interest rates in the short term as this presentation would indicate and
that the positive funding gap in the 1 to 5 year period is more reflective
of the Registrant's experience. Management will determine appropriate
interest rates based on competitive rates and the need for deposited funds.
The Registrant's management is aware of the inherent interest rate risk
associated with gap management. As interest rate fluctuations occur, the
relationship between rate-sensitive assets and liabilities will be
monitored by management and changes in assets and liabilities will be made
when deemed necessary. It is the goal of the Registrant's Asset/Liability
Management Committee to maintain a desired interest rate spread through its
pricing of both loans and deposits.
