BANK OF GRANITE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.       In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial
         statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the
         financial position of Bank of Granite Corporation and subsidiary as of
         March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, and the results of their
         operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994,
         and their cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 1995
         and 1994.

         The accounting policies followed are set forth in Note 1 to the
         Corporation's 1994 Annual Report to Shareholders on file with the
         Securities and Exchange Commission.

2.       Earnings per share have been computed using the weighted average
         number of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents
         outstanding, adjusted for a 5-for-4 stock split, of 5,986,600 and
         5,978,403 for the three month periods ended March 31, 1995 and 1994,
         respectively.

3.       In the normal course of business there are various commitments and
         contingent liabilities such as commitments to extend credit, which are
         not reflected on the financial statements.  The unused portion of loan
         commitments at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994 was $46,600,000
         and $50,230,000, respectively.  Additionally, standby letters of
         credit of approximately $4,063,000 and $2,938,000 were outstanding at
         March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, respectively.  Management does
         not anticipate any significant losses to result from these
         transactions.

4.       Effective January 1, 1995 the Company adopted a new accounting
         standard issued by the financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"),
         "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan" (SFAS No. 114)
         (subsequently amended by SFAS No. 118).  The Statement requires that
         impaired loans be measured based on the present value of expected
         future cash flows discounted a the loans's effective interest rate or,
         as a practical matter, at the loan's observable market value or fair
         value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.  The
         implementation of the Statement did not have a material impact on the
         financial position or results of operations.

                   BANK OF GRANITE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
MARCH 31, 1995 COMPARED WITH DECEMBER 31, 1994

Total assets increased $9,592,739 from December 31, 1994 to March 31, 1995.
This 2.33% of growth in assets resulted primarily from an increase in deposits
of $5,814,640 or 1.69% and the reinvestment of $2,605,813 of net earnings.  As
a result, cash and cash equivalents increased $1,472,694, and gross loans
reflected a modest growth of $7,179,420 or 2.66%.  Securities decreased by
$226,818, excluding unrealized losses on available for sale securities of
$482,240 and $1,194,616, at March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, respectively.
Deposits revealed an increase of $5,814,640 or 1.69%.  Non-time deposits
increased $324,202 or .19%, while time deposits increased $5,490,438 or 3.23%.
The growth in time deposits reflects interest sensitive customers shifting
their funds from lower interest-bearing accounts to higher yielding time
deposits.  The loan-to-deposits ratios were 79.35% and 78.6% on March 31, 1995
and December 31, 1994, respectively.  Other liabilities increased $1,663,180.
Of this amount $1,000,313 represents an accrued liability for securities
purchased but not yet settled.  Common stock outstanding increased by 3,641
shares due to the exercise of stock options and provided cash of $62,383.
Retained earnings reflect the payment of $595,821 in cash dividends and
earnings of $2,605,813.  The Company had a $292,817 unrealized loss, net of
deferred income taxes, on held available for sale securities.  The Company's
liquidity position remained strong.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE
MONTH PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 1995
COMPARED WITH THE SAME PERIOD IN 1994

Increases in interest income are primarily attributable to increases in rates.
Although gross loans increased by 10.9%, the prime rate increased by
approximately 300 basis points over the comparable quarter in 1994.  The
increase in interest expense is attributable to lower yielding deposits
maturing and reinvesting at higher interest rates, as well as a shift in
deposits from lower yielding non-time deposits to higher yielding time
deposits.

The provision for loan losses charged to operations is an amount sufficient to
bring the allowance for loan losses to an estimated balance considered to be
adequate to absorb potential losses in the portfolio.  Management's
determination of the adequacy of the allowance is based on an evaluation of the
portfolio, current economic conditions, historical loan loss experience and
other risk factors.  This evaluation is heavily dependent upon estimates and
appraisals which are susceptible to rapid changes because of changing economic
conditions and the economic prospects of borrowers.  The bank's delinquency
ratio was 1.79% compared to 1.28% on March  31,  1995 and 1994, respectively.
In view of the increase in delinquent loans, management charged  $440,000 to
operations for the addition to the allowance for loan losses during the first
quarter.  At March 31, 1995 the loan loss reserve was 1.60% of net loans
outstanding.
<PAGE>   8
Non-interest income decreased $79,934 or 6.98% compared to $1,144,377 in 1994.
The decrease reflects lower volumes in the bank's non-traditional banking
services.  Fees from the origination of mortgage loans decreased by $33,368 and
commission from the sales of annuities decreased by $26,618 compared to March
31, 1994.  The decreases arose as a result of rising interest rates.  Included
in other income is a $5,675 gain that arose from a available for sale security
being called at a premium.  Other expenses increased by $215,354 or 10.23%,
excluding a non-recurring loss of $111,547 on the sale of other real estate
owned during 1994.  Employee salaries and benefits comprised $167,170 or 77.63%
of the increase in non-interest expense.  The increase in salaries and benefits
reflects general pay increases and increased costs in providing benefits.
