NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1999
(UNAUDITED)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The financial information presented at and for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 is unaudited.
Information presented at December 31, 1998 is condensed from
audited year-end financial statements. However, unaudited
information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of
normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair presentation of the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows for
the interim period.
Note 2. Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Fulton
County National Bank & Trust Company and the Fulton County
Community Development Corporation. All significant
intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.
Note 3. Cash Flows
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the corporation
has defined cash and cash equivalents as those amounts
included in the balance sheet captions "cash and due from
banks" and "federal funds sold". As permitted by Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 104, the corporation
has elected to present the net increase or decrease in
deposits in banks, loans and time deposits in the statements
of cash flows.
Note 4. Federal Income Taxes
For financial reporting purposes the provision for loan
losses charged to operating expense is based on management's
judgment, whereas for federal income tax purposes, the amount
allowable under present tax law is deducted. Additionally,
certain expenses are charged to operating expense in the
period the liability is incurred for financial reporting
purposes, whereas for federal income tax purposes, these
expenses are deducted when paid. As a result of these timing
differences, deferred income taxes are provided in the
financial statements. Federal income taxes were computed
after reducing pretax accounting income for nontaxable
municipal and loan income.
Page 7 of 14 pages
Note 5. Other Commitments
In the normal course of business, the bank makes various
commitments and incurs certain contingent liabilities which
are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements.
These commitments include various guarantees and commitments
to extend credit and the bank does not anticipate any losses
as a result of these transactions.
Note 6. Earnings Per Share of Common Stock
Earnings per share of common stock were computed based on an
average of 495,000 shares for the quarters ended March 31,
1999 and 1998.
Note 7. Investment Securities
The carrying amounts of investment securities and their
approximate fair values at March 31, 1999 were as follows:

There were no securities categorized "Held-to-maturity" or
"Trading" at March 31, 1999.
Note 8. Comprehensive Income
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130,
"Reporting of Comprehensive Income", became effective for
fiscal years and interim reporting periods beginning after
December 15, 1997.
Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity from
transactions and other events from nonowner sources. It
includes all changes in equity except those resulting from
investments by owners and distributions to owners.
Consequently, a "Statement of Comprehensive Income" has been
included in this filing.

FULTON BANCSHARES CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
Net after tax income for the first quarter of 1999 was
$ 372,000 compared to $ 349,000 for the same period in 1998,
representing an increase of $ 23,000, or 6.6%. Net income on an
adjusted per share basis for the first three months of 1999 was $ .75,
an increase of $ .04 from the $ .71 per share realized during the
quarter ended March 31, 1998.
INTEREST INCOME
Interest income for the first quarter of 1999 was $ 2,137,000
compared with $ 2,017,000 as of March 31, 1998, for an increase of
$ 120,000, or 5.9%. The increase was due primarily to a higher
average balance of loans, which typically produce higher yields than
investments, in 1999 compared with the same period in 1998.
Management expects average rates earned for the rest of 1999 to be
comparable to the previous year since interest rates have remained
relatively stable and inflation appears to be under control.
INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 was
$ 1,047,000, an increase of $ 25,000, or 2.4% over the $ 1,022,000
incurred for the same period in 1998. The increase was due primarily
to higher average balances of borrowed monies, which were used to fund
loan growth, in 1999 compared with the same period in 1998.
Management expects interest expense to be higher for the rest of 1999
because borrowed monies or more costly time deposits most likely will
be used to fund the loan growth.
NET INTEREST MARGIN
The net interest margin for the first quarter of 1999 was
4.01% compared to 4.09% for the first quarter of 1998. Management
plans to protect its net interest margin by competitively pricing its
loans and deposits and by structuring interest-earning assets and
liabilities so they can be repriced in response to changes in market
interest rates.
NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income for the first three months of 1999 and the
same period in 1998 was $ 205,000 and $ 149,000, respectively.
Service charges on deposit accounts decreased $ 3,000, or 7.7% over
the same period in 1998. Other fee income decreased $ 17,000, or
32.7%, primarily because of a $ 21,000 decrease in fiduciary fees,
since effective January 4, 1999, the Bank's trust department was
serviced by an agent. Other noninterest income increased $ 78,000, or
144.4%, primarily due to director life insurance benefit income of
$ 91,000.
Page 9 of 14 pages
NONINTEREST EXPENSES
Noninterest expenses for the first quarter of 1999 were
$ 757,000, an increase of $ 81,000, or 12.0%, from the $ 676,000
reported for the same period of 1998. Salaries and employee-related
expenses were up 13.1% over the first quarter of 1998 due to additions
to the full-time staff and merit pay increases. Fixed asset expenses
were up 12.8% primarily due to increased equipment and building
maintenance costs and depreciation. Other noninterest expenses
increased 10.3% compared with the first three months of 1998 primarily
due to increases in advertising and promotion expenses, printing and
supplies expense and other overhead expenses.
INCOME TAXES
The income tax provision for the first quarter of 1999 was
$ 81,000 compared to $ 84,000 for the same period in 1998.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
An $ 85,000 provision for loan losses was made for the first
three months of 1999 compared with a $ 35,000 provision for the same
period in 1998. The provisions were based on management's evaluation
of the reserve for possible loan losses at March 31, 1999 and 1998.
A summary of the allowance for loan losses is as follows:

ASSETS
Total assets on March 31, 1999 were $ 119,516,000, compared with
$ 119,649,000, on December 31, 1998. Management intends
to contain growth and concentrate on maintaining adequate profit
margins. Net loans on March 31, 1999 stood at $ 83,706,000, an
increase of 4.4% from $ 80,214,000 on December 31, 1998. The loan
loss reserve at the end of the first quarter of 1999 was $ 654,000
compared with $ 580,000 at year-end 1998 and is considered adequate,
in management's judgment, to absorb possible loan losses on existing
loans.
LIABILITIES
Total deposits decreased 3.1% to $ 96,265,000 as of March 31,
1999 compared with $ 99,341,000 at December 31, 1998. Certificates of
deposit increased 0.8% while noninterest-bearing demand deposits and
interest-bearing savings deposits decreased 13.7% and 6.2%,
respectively.
CAPITAL
Total equity as of March 31, 1999 was $ 12,692,000 representing
10.6% of total assets, an increase of $ 213,000 from the $ 12,479,000
reported on December 31, 1998. Accumulated earnings for the first
three months of 1999 were partially offset by a $ 74,000 decrease in
net unrealized holding gains (net of deferred tax) and dividends
declared of $ 84,150.
REGULATORY CAPITAL
The company maintains capital ratios that are well above the
minimum total capital levels required by federal regulatory
authorities, including risk-based capital guidelines. A comparison of
Fulton Bancshares Corporation's capital ratios to regulatory minimum
requirements at March 31, 1999 is as follows:
