Item I - Financial Statements

Introduction to Financial Statements

The consolidated financial statements of County Bank Corp and subsidiary,
Lapeer County Bank & Trust Co., have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.  The Company believes that the
disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading when
read in conjunction with financial statements and the notes thereto included in
County Bank Corp's Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission for the year ended December 31, 1996.

The financial information presented reflects all adjustments (consisting only
of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of mangement,
necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods
presented.  The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for the year.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and the
Results of Operations.

Financial Condition

New loan production continued through the third quarter of 1997, but on a
slower pace than the second quarter and first quarter produced.  New loan
production has declined in each quarter.  Net increases in loans totaled
$2,081,000 year to date in 1997.  Net increases in deposits for both interest
bearing and non-interest bearing demand deposits totaled 19,000 for the quarter
and totaled $1,032,000 for the year.  Time and savings deposits increased
$718,000 during the quarter.  Year to date increased in Time and savings
deposits totaled $750,000.  Moderate deposit growth is characteristic of the
Corporation's market.

Loan demand was met with cash provided deposit growth.  Income from operations
and net decreases in the investment portfolio resulted in net increases to cash
and cash equivalents.  Management expects continued loan growth during the
fourth quarter and is remaining liquid to meet the demand from loan customers.

Results of Operations

Net income per share for the quarter was $1.29 resulting in year to date
earnings per share of $3.88.  The growth in loans was the primary contributor
to increased interest income.  Non interest income and expense categories
remained at levels consistent with the Corporation's recent performance.

Risk Factors

Loan quality remains high.  The reserve for loan losses to gross loans ratio is
1.61%.  The non performing loans to total loans ratios is .78%.  This ratio
compares loans past due 90 days or more and loans in non-accrual status to
total loans.  This is an historically low ratio and indicates a high quality
portfolio.

The Corporation remains liability sensitive in relation to the risk of changes
in interest rates.  The demand for residential mortgages remains strong in the
market area.  Options to maintain both repricing opportunities for assets and
market tendencies for deposits are under constant review.

Capital

Strong net income performance and conservative dividend payments result in
increased capital.  The moderate growth results in improving capital ratios.
