(1) GENERAL

     The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for Port
     St. Lucie National Bank Holding Corp. (the "Company") reflect all 
     adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which, in the

     results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of trends or 
     results to be expected for the full year.  These condensed consolidated
     interim financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with 
     the Company's annual report and Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 
     31, 1995.

     At September 30, 1996, real estate-construction loans were comprised of  
     $6,165  in  single family residential loans and $2,533 in commercial real 
     estate loans.  As of December 31, 1995, real estate-construction loans 
     were comprised of $3,686 in single family residential loans and $1,266 in 
     commercial real estate loans.

<PAGE>
     At September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, loans to directors, executive 
     officers, and principal shareholders aggregated $1,611 and $1,423, 
     respectively.  Total unfunded commitments to this group at September 30, 
     1996 and December 31, 1995 aggregated $1,109 and $820, respectively.

(5)  NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In June 1996, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 
     No. 125 ("Statement 125"), "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of 
     Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities."  Statement 125 
     provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of 
     financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities based on a financial-
     components approach that focuses on control.  Statement 125 is effective 
     for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of 
     liabilities occurring after December 31, 1996 and is to be prospectively 
     applied.  Management is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of 
     FAS 125 on its financial position and results of operations.

OVERVIEW

     Port St. Lucie National Bank Holding Corp.'s (the "Company") total assets 
     at September 30, 1996 were $129,779, an increase of $15,246 or 13.3% over 
     December 31, 1995.  Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1996
     was $1,104 as compared to $573 for the nine months ended September 30, 
     1995.  Earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 represent 
     $1.28 per common and common equivalent share as compared to $0.70 for the 
     nine months ended September 30, 1995.  Net income for the three months 
     ended September 30, 1996 was $385 as compared to $240 for the three months 
     ended September 30, 1995.  Earnings for the three months ended September 
     30, 1996 represent $0.45 per common and common equivalent share as compared
     to $0.29 for the three months ended September 30, 1995.  On February 15, 
     1996, the Company declared a 10% stock dividend.  The stock dividend and 
     stock issued increased the outstanding shares from 672 to 743.  The 
     earnings per share for both comparison periods shown above have been 
     restated to reflect the stock dividend and the stock issuance of exercised 
     options and warrants.

     On March 17, 1995, Port St. Lucie National Bank (the "Bank") opened its 
     second branch office, a 4,300 square foot facility located in the rapidly 
     growing St. Lucie West development in Port St. Lucie, Florida.  The Bank 
     also expanded its administrative offices, taking an additional 1,200 square
     feet in the same facility.  This expansion had a direct impact on the 
     Company's personnel, occupancy, premises and equipment  expenses reflecting
     nine full months of operations in 1996 as compared to six full months of 
     operations in 1995.

     In February 1995, the Company organized and approved a mortgage banking 
     company, Spirit Mortgage Corp., which began doing business primarily 
     outside of the market in which the Bank operates.  This operation also 
     impacted the Company's personnel, premises and equipment expenses 
     reflecting six full months of operations in 1995 as compared to nine full 
     months in 1996.


EARNINGS ANALYSIS

     NET INTEREST INCOME

     For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, interest income totaled 
     $6,887, an increase of $932 or 15.7% over the nine months ended September 
     30, 1995.  The primary reasons for the change in interest income is the 
     increase of $10,525 or 10.1% in average earning assets over the past twelve
     months ending September 30, 1996 and the Bank's ability over the same 
     period to change the mix of average earning assets.  As of September 30, 
     1995, investments totaled 31.5% of average earning assets compared to 18.5%
     as of September 30, 1996.  In addition, net loans increased from 68.6% of 
     average earning assets to 81.5% during the comparison periods.  Interest 
     expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was $3,157, an 
     increase of $69 or 2.2%.  Total average deposit growth of 9.8% during the 
     twelve months ended September 30, 1996 was the primary reason for the 
     increase during the comparison periods.  The combination of growth and 
     change in mix resulted in net interest income for the nine months ended 
     September 30, 1996 of $3,730, an increase of $863 or 30.1% over the nine
     months ended September 30, 1995.  Net interest income for the three months
     ended September 30, 1996 was $1,332, an increase of $307 or 30.0% over the
     three months ended September 30, 1995. 

<PAGE>
     The net interest yield for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was 
     4.34%, an increase of 67 basis points over the nine months ended September 
     30, 1995.  The components of the net interest yield reflect an increase of
     38 basis points in the yield on average earning assets with a 28 basis 
     point decrease in the interest expense to average earning assets.  The net
     interest yield for the three months ended September 30, 1996 was 4.35%, an
     increase of 67 basis points over the three months ended September 30, 1995.
     The components of the net interest yield reflect an increase of 31 basis 
     points in the yield on average earning assets with a 36 basis point 
     decrease in the interest expense to average earning assets.  As discussed 
     above, the Bank was successful in changing the mix of earning assets by 
     reducing lower yielding investment securities and replacing them with 
     higher yielding loans.  In addition to changing the mix in earning assets,
     the Bank was also able to change the mix in deposits by attracting lower 
     cost deposits while higher cost time deposits repriced at lower rates.

     NONINTEREST INCOME

     Noninterest income was $1,131 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996.
     This represents a $417 or 58.4% increase over the nine months ended 
     September 30, 1995.  For the three months ended September 30, 1996, 
     noninterest income was $338, an increase of $44 or 15.0% as compared to 
     September 30, 1995.  The primary source of noninterest income during 1996
     was service charges on deposit accounts.  Service charges on deposit 
     accounts totaled $431 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, an 
     increase of $3 or 0.7% over the nine months ended September 30, 1995.  For
     the three months ended September 30, 1996, service charges on deposit 
     accounts totaled $151, a decrease $25 or 14.2% over three months ended 
     September 30, 1995.  The decrease in service charges for the three month 
     comparison periods can be attributed to the reduction in specific service 
     charges on deposit accounts, although maintenance charges on deposit 
     accounts remained flat.  The decrease is considered temporary and does not
     represent a trend.

     Gains on sale of loans held for sale totaled $382, an increase of $298 or 
     354.7% over the nine months ended September 30, 1995.  For the three months
     ended September 30, 1996, gains on sale of loans held for sale totaled $98,
     an increase of $43 or 78.2% over the three months ended September 30, 1995.
     These increases are attributable to the success of the newly established
     mortgage company, Spirit Mortgage Corp.  During the nine months ended 
     September 30, 1996, $65,328 of loans held for sale were sold.  Spirit 
     Mortgage Corp. originated $28,402 of the loans sold resulting in gains of 
     $367.  These fixed rate residential loans were sold to various 
     correspondents servicing released and without recourse.  The Bank 
     originated and sold $3,054 of loans without recourse to the Federal 
     National Mortgage Association resulting in $15 in gains.  The Company 
     intends to continue emphasizing this type of business; however, future 
     volume will depend on the direction and stability of interest rates during
     the remainder of the year.

<PAGE>
     Sales of investment securities available for sale totaled $2,000 for the 
     nine months ended September 30, 1996.  $1 in gains on sale of investment 
     securities available for sale were realized.  There were no investment 
     securities available for sale sold in first three quarters of 1995.

     Other fees for customer services was $317 for the nine months ended 
     September 30, 1996 as compared to $239 for the nine months ended September
     30, 1995.  This represents a $78 or 32.6% increase.  For the three months 
     ended September 30, 1996, other fees for customer services totaled $89, a 
     decrease of $12 or 11.9% over the three months ending September 30, 1995. 
     The $78 increase in the nine month comparison period is primarily 
     attributable to the improvement in service fees associated with all loan 
     products.  This increase in fees is the result of increased FHA loans 
     purchased and sold, the recognition of fee income from the services 
     provided by Spirit Mortgage Corp. and the impact of increased residential 
     real estate loan volume generated by the Bank and Spirit Mortgage Corp.

     NONINTEREST EXPENSE

     Noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was 
     $3,016, an increase of $435 or 16.9% over the nine months ended September
     30, 1995.  For the three months ended September 30, 1996, noninterest 
     expense was $1,019, an increase of $125 or 14.0% over the three months 
     ended September 30, 1995.  This increase is attributable to increased 
     personnel expenses, occupancy, furniture and equipment expenses and other 
     noninterest expenses.  These increases can be attributed to nine full 
     months of operations of the Bank's new branch office and Spirit Mortgage 
     Corp., as compared to only partial expense increases associated with the
     expansions during the first three quarters of 1995.

     INCOME TAXES

     The net income of $1,689 before income taxes for the nine months ended 
     September 30, 1996, reflects an increase of $853 or 102.0% over the nine 
     months ended September 30, 1995. The resulting income tax expense of $585 
     for the nine month period is an increase of $322 over the nine months ended
     September 30, 1995.  For the three months ended September 30, 1996, net
     income before income taxes was $592, an increase of $235.  Income tax 
     expense increased primarily as a result of the increase in income before 
     income taxes.


LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

     Liquidity and interest rate sensitivity positions are regularly examined 
     and evaluated by management in conjunction with market interest rates, 
     balance sheet composition and funding source requirements.  While a 
     balanced interest rate sensitivity position has been and continues to be 
     maintained, a shift in balance sheet composition has had the impact of 
     improving net interest income growth in 1996.  Management will continue its
     efforts to maintain a balanced interest rate sensitivity position and will
     monitor loan demand and deposit growth in order to influence the changes in
     balance sheet composition necessary to maximize net interest income growth
     under prevailing conditions.

<PAGE>
     For financial institutions, liquidity represents the ability of the 
     institution to meet both loans and other commitments as well as depositor 
     withdrawals.  During the first half of 1996, loan demand has exceeded 
     deposit growth allowing the Bank to utilize maturing and sold investment  
     securities available for sale to fund those loans.  While that trend has  
     recently slowed, the Company will continue to look to the sale of loans, 
     the sale of investment securities available for sale or the use of specific
     borrowings as deemed prudent to support high quality, higher yielding loan
     growth.

     At September 30, 1996, the Company had potential funding needs of $14,582 
     in outstanding loan commitments and $148 in standby letters of credit.  In
     addition, volatile deposits consisted of $10,359 in time deposits of $100 
     or more and $4,894 in municipal deposits.  Since a portion of these 
     municipal deposits are not subject to maturity, the duration of these 
     balance levels is not precisely known.  The municipal deposits also require
     the pledge of qualified investment securities to the State of Florida in 
     accordance with the Florida Security for Public Deposit Act.  Based on the
     prior month's daily average balance of municipal deposits, a 50% pledge 
     level is required up to the Bank's capital position and a 125% pledge level
     is required on balances in excess of the Bank's capital position.

     To provide funds for these potential liquidity needs, the Company 
     maintained cash equivalents of $19,982 at September 30, 1996, consisting 
     of loans held for sale of $1,991, federal funds sold of $5,200, and 
     securities available for sale of $12,791.  In addition, unfunded federal 
     funds purchase commitments aggregating $4,000, and a $19,000 commitment 
     from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, are also available to meet 
     potential liquidity needs.  In the opinion of management, the Company 
     maintains liquidity levels adequate to meet its potential funding demands.


EARNING ASSETS AND FUNDING SOURCES

     At September 30, 1996, earning asset categories totaled $124,341 and 
     comprised 95.8% of total assets.  Loans held for sale of $1,991 or 1.6%,  
     investment securities held to maturity of $3,979 or 3.2%, federal funds 
     sold of $5,200 or 4.2%, investment securities available for sale of $12,791
     or 10.3% and net loans of $100,380 or 80.7% make up all earning assets.  
     Deposits, the primary source of funds, totaled $117,706 at September 30, 
     1996, of which $17,614 or 15.0% was in noninterest bearing demand deposits
     and $100,092 or 85.0% of total deposits was in interest bearing deposits.  

     LOANS

     Total loans at September 30, 1996, were $101,412, an increase of $23,914 or
     30.9% over December 31, 1995.   From December 31, 1995 to September 30, 
     1996, outstanding balances on other personal and business loans increased 
     $18 or 2.7%, commercial loans increased $98 or 1.0%, installment loans 
     increased $2,431 or 21.9%, other real estate lending aggregated a $2,729 or
     21.5% increase, real estate construction loans increased by $3,746 or 75.6%
     and loans on primary residences increased $14,891 or 39.2%.  The largest 
     growth in the loan portfolio during the nine month period was in real 
     estate loan category, primarily made up of adjustable rate residential real
     estate loans.  Increases in installment, other real estate and construction
     loans reflects the Company's emphasis on building loan volume in other 
     higher yielding types of loans.

<PAGE>
     The Company does not engage in any speculative real estate lending or real
     estate development lending.  The real estate loans are predominately made 
     on owner occupied properties with established cash flows.  

     SECURITIES

     At September 30, 1996, total securities held to maturity were $3,979, an 
     increase of $82 or 2.1% over December 31, 1995.  The change is attributable
     to an increase in Federal Home Loan Bank Stock of $92, offset by a $10 
     decrease associated with the premium amortization of the existing 
     portfolio.
     
     The securities held to maturity had gross unrealized gains of $18 as of 
     September 30, 1996 and $57 as of December 31, 1995. The gross unrealized 
     losses in the portfolio of securities held to maturity as of September 30,
     1996 were $15 and as of December 31, 1995 were $7. 

     At September 30, 1996, securities available for sale were $12,791, a 
     decrease of $4,469 or 25.9% over December 31, 1995.  The components of the
     change were a decrease in U.S. Treasury securities of $2,048 or 53.8%, a 
     decrease in U.S. Government Agency securities of $1,152 or 37.7% and a 
     decrease in mortgage backed  securities of $1,239 or 11.6%.  These changes
     in the securities portfolio and the increase of $30 in net unrealized 
     losses ($18 net of tax effect) resulted in the $4,469 decrease in total 
     securities available for sale.  The decrease in the available for sale 
     securities portfolio is due to the sale of securities to assist the funding
     of loan production and the maturity of various securities.

     At December 31, 1995, the available for sale portfolio included $261 of net
     unrealized losses which resulted in an after tax adjustment decreasing 
     shareholders' equity by $163 as compared to the $291 of net unrealized 
     losses at September 30, 1996 which resulted in an after tax adjustment 
     decreasing shareholders' equity by $181.

     FUNDING SOURCES

     Deposits at September 30, 1996 were $117,706, an increase of $13,473 or 
     12.9% from December 31, 1995.  The components of this change were a $7,545
     or 15.3% increase in time deposits, a $4,898 or 61.3% increase in interest 
     bearing demand deposits, a $3,102 or 14.7% increase in savings deposits, a 
     $325 or 5.7% increase in money market deposits and a $2,387 or 11.9% 
     decrease in noninterest bearing demand deposits.  The increase in interest
     bearing demand deposits is due to a temporary $5,000 deposit of municipal 
     funds.  The decrease in non-interest bearing demand deposits reflects 
     seasonal activity.  The remaining deposit growth during the nine months 
     ended September 30, 1996 can be attributed to the Company's market 
     acceptance and its ability to respond to market needs with new products.

<PAGE>
     The Company also continues to utilize federal fund purchase lines and 
     advances through the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") to accommodate 
     temporary timing differences between earning asset growth and deposit 
     growth.  At September 30, 1996, there were no outstanding balances under 
     federal funds purchase lines or FHLB advance agreements.

  ASSET QUALITY

     The allowance for loan losses as of September 30, 1996 was $936 or 0.92% of
     loans outstanding as compared to $845 or 1.03% at September 30, 1995.  This
     is a net increase of $91 or 10.8% over September 30, 1995.  The increase in
     the allowance for loan losses was primarily due to growth in the loan 
     portfolio of 23.5% over the twelve months ended September 30, 1996.  The
     decline in the allowance compared to loans outstanding from 1.03% to 0.92%
     is due to the continued concentration in lower risk loans on residential 
     real estate and due to the maintenance of the overall portfolio quality at
     a level that does not require additional allowance.

     A reconciliation of the allowance for loan losses follows:

  NONPERFORMING LOANS

  Loans are placed on a nonaccrual status when they become 90 days past due 
  unless determined to be both adequately collateralized and actively in the 
  process of collection or when they are classified as doubtful.  When full 
  collection of principal becomes doubtful, the uncollectible portion of the 
  loan is charged-off.

  As of September 30, 1996, the Company had four loans totaling $10 past due 90
  days or more and on accrual, 17 loans in the amount of $490 on nonaccrual and
  no other real estate owned. 

  As of December 31, 1995, the Company had four loans totaling $5 past due 90 
  days or more and on accrual, 13 loans on nonaccrual in the amount of $405 and
  no other real estate owned.

  Interest would have been recorded for all nonperforming loans in the amount of
  $33 and $17 during the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, 
  respectively, if these loans had been current in accordance with their 
  original terms.

  OTHER POTENTIAL PROBLEM LOANS

  Other potential problem loans exclude nonperforming loans and represent those
  loans where information about possible credit problems of borrowers has caused
  management to have serious doubts about the borrowers' ability to comply with
  present repayment terms.  The Company follows a loan review program to 
  evaluate the credit risk in its loan portfolio.  Through the loan review 
  process, the Company maintains a classified account list which, along with the
  delinquency list of loans, helps management assess the overall quality of the
  loan portfolio and the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.  Loans 
  classified as "substandard" are those loans with clear and defined weaknesses,
  such as highly leveraged positions, unfavorable financial ratios, uncertain 
  repayment sources or poor financial condition, that may jeopardize 
  recoverability of the debt.  Loans classified as "doubtful" are those loans 
  which have characteristics similar to substandard accounts but with an 
  increased risk that a loss may occur, or at least a portion of the loan may 
  require a charge-off if liquidated at present.  At September 30, 1996, 
  potential problem loans classified as substandard were $573 compared to $894 
  at year end 1995.  There were two loans totaling $67 classified as doubtful at
  September 30, 1996 as compared to six loans that totaled $40 at year end 1995.
  Classified loans in aggregate decreased by $294 at September 30, 1996 from 
  year end 1995.  The change in those loans classified as doubtful and 
  substandard is primarily due to repayment and migration from the substandard
  category as some loans deteriorated and others improved in financial strength.

  Management is unaware of any loans other than those noted above which are 
  classified for regulatory purposes that represent or result from trends or 
  uncertainties that will materially impact future operating results, liquidity,
  or capital resources.

CAPITAL RESOURCES (Share information not in thousands)

  Total shareholders' equity at September 30, 1996 was $10,072, an increase of 
  $1,117 or 12.5% from December 31, 1995.  Net income for the nine months ended 
  September 30,  1996  of $1,104  and  the increase of $18 in after tax 
  unrealized losses on the available for sale investment securities portfolio in
  accordance with FAS No. 115 primarily make up the increase in shareholders' 
  equity.  During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, there were 468 
  warrants and 2,904 options exercised resulting in a $33 increase in capital. 
  Also, the Company declared and issued a stock dividend of 10% on February 15,
  1996.  The stock dividend increased total outstanding shares by 67,116 for a 
  total of 739,468 and cash equivalent dividends totaled $2.

  Since December 31, 1993, regulatory capital guidelines require bank holding 
  companies to have a minimum total risk-based capital ratio of 8.00% and a 
  minimum leverage ratio of 3.00% for the highest rated bank holding companies 
  with an additional 1% or 2% required depending on their regulatory ratings and
  expansion plans.  

  On December 19, 1991, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement 
  Act of 1991 ("FDICIA") became law as it relates to the Bank.  While the FDICIA
  primarily addresses additional sources of funding for the Savings Association 
  Insurance Fund ("SAIF") and Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF"), it also imposed a 
  number of mandatory and discretionary supervisory measures on financial 
  institutions.

  The FDICIA requires financial institutions to take certain actions relating to
  their internal operations and also imposes certain operational and managerial 
  standards on financial institutions relating to internal controls, loan 
  documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth and 
  compensation, fees and benefits.

  Furthermore, the FDICIA established five capital categories and specified 
  supervisory actions in regard to undercapitalized institutions.  The 
  regulation, which became effective December 19, 1992, ties the capital 
  categories to three capital measures: Total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based
  and leverage capital.  The definitions of Tier 1 and total capital under the 
  FDICIA are similar to the definitions under the previously existing capital 
  guidelines, except for the ratio of tangible equity to total assets used to 
  define critically undercapitalized banks.  The ratios for each category are as
  follows:

</TABLE>

     The Bank does not anticipate any difficulty in continuing to meet these 
     minimum capital requirements in the foreseeable future.  Based on these 
     regulations, management believes the Bank is classified as "well 
     capitalized."


FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

     This Form 10-QSB report contains forward looking statements that involve 
     risks and uncertainties, and there are certain important factors that could
     cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated.  These 
     important factors include, but are not limited to, economic conditions 
     (both generally and more specifically in the markets in which the Company
     and the Bank operate), competition for the Company's and the Bank's 
     customers from other providers of financial services, government 
     legislation and regulation (which changes from time to time and over which
     the Company and the Bank have no control), changes in interest rates, the 
     impact of the Company's rapid growth, and other risks detailed in the 
     Annual Report on Form 10-KSB and in this filing with the Securities and 
     Exchange Commission, all of which are difficult to predict and many of 
     which are beyond the control of the Company.
