INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Board of Directors
Republic Bancorp Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Republic
Bancorp Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 1996, and the related
statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of
the two years in the period ended December 31, 1996. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 1996 and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the
period ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, effective April 1, 1995,
the Company changed its method of accounting for mortgage servicing rights.
