PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 1. Financial Statements:
Consolidated Balance Sheets See Attached Schedules
Consolidated Statement of Income See Attached Schedules
Consolidated Statement of Cash Flow See Attached Schedules
Item 2. Management's discussion and analysis of financial
condition and results of operations.
Interim Financial Statement: The Interim Financial Statements
furnished include all adjustments which, in the opinion of
management, are necessary to reflect fair statements of the
results for the interim period presented and are recurring in
nature.
Earnings: Seaway reported net income of $1,094,000 in the first
three months of 1996 compared to $980,000 in the same period in
1995. Net income for the three months was $.65 per share as
compared to the first three months of 1995 at $.58 after
adjustment for stock dividend. On an annualized basis, return on
average stockholders' equity was 11.14% in the first three months
of 1996 versus 11.07% in the first three months of 1995. On an
annualized basis, return on average assets moved to 1.25% from
1.13% in the same period for 1995.
Net Interest Income: For the first three months of 1996, net
interest income was $3,620,000, an 7.0% increase from the first
three months of 1995 net interest income of $3,383,000.
A March 1996 to March 1995 comparison indicates an increase in
Commercial Loans, Real Estate Mortgages and Consumer Loans.
Total loans excluding Loans Held for Sale, increased by
$13,904,000 or 7.7% from March 31, 1995. We are continuing to
work on increasing our loan portfolio.
Other Income: Total other income in the first three months of
1996 increased to $945,000 from $925,000 in the first three
months of 1995, for a increase of 2.2%. The key factors were an
increase in Mutual Funds and Brokerage Fees totaling $17,000; an
increase of $15,000 in Service Charges on Deposit accounts; and a
decrease of $8,000 in Service Fees.
<PAGE> 2
All fixed rate mortgage loans for 1-4 residential units are
specifically originated for sale. Mortgages held for sale in
1996 was at $576 and in 1995 was at $0. With the constant
pressure on interest margins, management is very conscious that
Other income must be grown to offset the continuing increase in
2
cost of doing business.

Other Expenses: Total Other Expenses increased by 1.0% or
$31,000 in the first three months of 1996 compared to the first
three months of 1995. The major portion of this increase was in
salary and benefits expenses which increased by $90,000, or 5.2%,
above 1995 levels. Occupancy and Equipment expenses increased by
$46,000 above the first three months 1995. Marketing Expense
increased by $35,000. Software costs increased by $20,000 for
the first three months of 1996 as compared to the first three
months of 1995. Very significantly, FDIC Assessment Fees
decreased $158,000 and Michigan taxes decreased $14,000 in this
same period.
We continue to look at ways to reduce our operating costs.
Reserve/Provision for Loan Losses: Management at each subsidiary
Bank monitors the adequacy of the reserve on a quarterly basis
with an in-depth review of all non-accrual loans, other real
estate, loans 90 days past due and all other loans where the
financial statements of the Borrower reveal a deterioration in
financial strength. After each such review, specific sums in the
loan loss reserve are allocated to weak situations and the
remaining balance is tested for adequacy when measured by
historical loss experience and contemplated changes in the
economic environment. At all times during the past three years,
the reserve accounts were deemed to be fully adequate to cover
the credit risks in each of the bank portfolios. A specific loan
loss reserve does not exist for potential losses on loan
commitments. No losses from loan commitments have occurred in
1996, 1995 or 1994.
<PAGE> 3
Management is not aware of any loans classified for regulatory
purposes as loss, doubtful, substandard, or special mention that
3
have not been disclosed under Item III of Industry Guide III that
(1) represent or result from trends or uncertainties which
management reasonably expects will materially impact future
operating results, liquidity or capital resources, or
(2) represent material credits about which management is aware of
any information which causes management to have serious doubts as
to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the loan
repayment terms. We know of no trends, events or uncertainties
that presently exist that are reasonably likely to have a
material effect on our liquidity, capital resources or
operations. The regulatory authorities have not made any
recommendations that would impact our liquidity, capital
resources or operations.
At March 31, 1996 the allowance account was $2,341,000 which
represented 1.20% of total loans outstanding. Our current goal
is to maintain the reserve for loan losses at 1.20% of total
loans outstanding. At March 31, 1995 this reserve account was
$2,185,000 or 1.21% of total loans outstanding. At December 31,
1995 the reserve for loan losses was $2,294,000 which was 1.19%
of total loans outstanding. Loan losses net of recoveries were
$4,000 for the first three months of 1996.

Seaway Financial Corporation adopted FAS 114 on January 1, 1995.
Based on the analysis of expected cash flows and collected
values, no additional allowance for possible loan losses was
deemed necessary for impaired loans at March 31, 1996.
Non-Performing Assets: Non-Performing Assets are defined as Non-
Accrual, Other Real Estate Owned and Restructured Loans.
Generally, the accrual of interest income on a loan is suspended
when the loan becomes 90 days past due unless the loan is fully
<PAGE> 4
collateralized and is in the process of collection. A
restructured loan is one that is accruing interest, but on which
4
concessions in the original terms of the loan have been made due
to a weakening in the financial strength of the borrower.
Management's policy for returning a non-performing loan to a
performing loan status is that the loan must be current (all
principal and interest payment made.) Any loan that is returned
to performing status is watched closely. It is not our practice
to loan split.

Loan quality remained excellent as non-performing loans at March
31, 1996 were $2,625,000, or 1.35% of total loans. At March 31,
1995, non-performing loans were $1,363,000, or .75% of total
loans, which was an extremely low position in relation to the
peer group. Net loan chargeoffs for the first quarter of 1996
were $4,000, or .003% of average total loans.

Investment Securities: Securities are recorded in accordance
with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 115,
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities," which requires an investment in a security to be
classified based on the Corporation's intent with respect to
5
holding securities. The following summarizes the classification
of securities held at March 31, 1996 and 1995 as well as December
31, 1995.
Securities purchased, where the Corporation has both the positive
intent and ability to hold to maturity, are classified as held-
to-maturity and are recorded at cost adjusted for accumulated
amortization of premium and accretion of discount. Realized
gains and losses on sales of held-to-maturity securities, while
rare, are included in net securities gains based on the adjusted
cost of the specific item sold.
When securities are purchased and the Corporation intends to hold
the securities for an indefinite period of time but not
necessarily to maturity, they are classified as available-for-
sale and recorded at market value. Any decision to sell a
security available-for-sale would be based on various factors,
including significant movements in interest rates, changes in
maturity mix of the Corporation's assets and liabilities,
liquidity demands, regulatory capital considerations, and other
similar factors. Cost is adjusted for amortization of premiums
and accretion of discounts to maturity or, for mortgage-backed
securities, over the estimated life of the security. Unrealized
gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are excluded
from earnings and recorded as an amount, net of tax, in a
separate component of stockholders' equity.

Investment securities decreased in the first three months of 1996
as compared to the first three months of 1995.
Liquidity: At March 31, 1996, Seaway's net liquidity ratio was
4l.0%. At December 31, 1995, this ratio was 43.4% and at March
31, 1995, it was 32.2%. Net liquid assets are comprised of
investment securities that are not pledged, federal funds sold,
bankers acceptances, cash and due from banks and time deposits in
other banks, less any reserve requirements.
This strong liquidity position allows us to meet any increasing
loan demands of our customers or to absorb any short term decline
in deposits which might be experienced.
Captial Management: Seaway is dedicated to maintaining a capital
position in excess of eight percent equity capital to total
assets. In light of the current regulatory and banking
environment, this is more important today than it ever has been.
Depositor and investor confidence is necessary to continue to
8
operate profitably. This also places the Corporation in a
position to expand through new offices or acquisitions should
these opportunities arise. Seaway's primary capital ratio which
includes stockholders' equity plus loan reserves less market
valuation, at March 31, 1996 was 11.91% and 11.37% at March 31,
1995 and 11.85% at December 31, 1995. Return on equity capital
at March 31, 1996 was 11.09%. This same ratio was 10.79% at
March 31, 1995 and 10.40% at December 31, 1995.
