                      CENTURA BANKS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  March 31, 1999

                                   (Unaudited)

Note 1:  Basis of Presentation

         The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial statements include
the  accounts  of  Centura  Banks,   Inc.   ("Centura")  and  its   wholly-owned
subsidiaries  Centura  Bank (the "Bank") and Centura  Capital  Trust I. The Bank
also has various  wholly-owned  subsidiaries.  The interim financial  statements
have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted  accounting  principles
for interim financial statements.  All significant intercompany transactions are
eliminated in consolidation and all adjustments  considered necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for the interim periods presented have been included
(such  adjustments  are  normal  and  recurring  in  nature).  All prior  period
financial  information has been restated to include  historical  information for
companies acquired in transactions accounted for as poolings-of-interests.

         The information contained in the consolidated  financial statements and
accompanying  footnotes  in  Centura's  annual  report  on Form  10-K  should be
referenced when reading these unaudited interim financial statements.  Operating
results for the  three-month  period  ended  March 31, 1999 are not  necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending  December 31,
1999.

         On  January  7,  1999,  Centura  acquired  Capital  Advisors  of  North
Carolina,  LLC,  Capital Advisors of South Carolina,  Inc.,  Capital Advisors of
Mississippi,  Inc.  Selken,  Inc.,  and  Capital  Advisors,  Inc.,  collectively
referred to as Capital Advisors. With this transaction,  Capital Advisors became
a wholly-owned  subsidiary of Centura Bank.  Capital  Advisors,  with offices in
North Carolina,  South Carolina,  Georgia,  and  Mississippi,  is engaged in the
business of commercial real estate  financing and consulting  primarily  through
brokering and servicing commercial mortgage loans. The acquisition was accounted
for using the purchase method of accounting and  approximately  $14.3 million of
goodwill was recorded as an other asset on the consolidated balance sheet.

         On February 5, 1999,  Centura  completed  the  acquisition  of Scotland
Bancorp, Inc. ("Scotland") based in Laurinburg,  North Carolina. The acquisition
was  accounted  for as a purchase.  Goodwill of  approximately  $6.6 million was
recorded as an other asset on the consolidated balance sheet.
<PAGE>

         On March 26, 1999, Centura merged with First Coastal  Bankshares,  Inc.
("First Coastal") headquartered in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Each share of First
Coastal common stock was exchanged for 0.34 shares of Centura common stock.  The
combination  was  accounted  for  as a  pooling-of-interests,  and  accordingly,
historical financial  information for all periods presented has been restated to
include First  Coastal's  historical  financial  information.  This  combination
increases  Centura's  presence  in the  Hampton  Roads  region of Virginia by 18
financial stores. In connection with the merger,  Centura recorded non-recurring
pre-tax merger-related charges of $8.4 million. Included in these merger-related
expenses  are  severance  and   termination-related   accruals,   costs  of  the
transaction,  and the  write-off  of  certain  assets  deemed to have no ongoing
benefit  to  Centura.  The  severance  costs  include  payments  to be  made  in
connection with the involuntary  termination of employees who were  specifically
identified and notified of their termination and severance benefits in December,
1998. The remaining balance of the accrued severance expenses are expected to be
paid in 1999. An additional  $1.5 million in provision  for loan losses was also
recorded to align the  allowance for loan loss factors between the two entities.
The following table  summarizes these  merger-related  charges as well as the  
remaining  liability at March 31, 1999:

     For the acquisitions accounted for under the purchase method of accounting,
the financial  position and results of operations  relative to each  transaction
are  included  in the  consolidated  financial  statements  since  the  date  of
consummation.


Note 3:  Net Income Per Share

     Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted
earnings  per  common  share is based on the  weighted-average  number of common
shares outstanding during each period plus the maximum dilutive effect of common
stock issuable upon exercise of stock options which totaled  501,344 and 597,453
at March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

Note 4:  Reclassifications

         Certain  items  reported in prior  periods  have been  reclassified  to
conform with current period presentation.  Such  reclassifications had no impact
on net income or shareholders' equity.


Note 5:  Adoption of Statements of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS")

         On January 1, 1999,  Centura  adopted  SFAS No.  134,  "Accounting  for
Mortgage-Backed  Securities  Retained after the Securitization of Mortgage Loans
Held for Sale by a Mortgage  Banking  Enterprise"  ("SFAS 134").  This Statement
amends SFAS 65 to require that after the  securitization  of mortgage loans held
for sale,  an  entity  engaged  in  mortgage  banking  activities  classify  the
resulting  mortgage-backed  securities or other retained  interests based on its
ability and intent to sell or hold those investments. Adoption of this Statement
did not materially impact Centura's financial position or results of operations.


Note 6:  Commitments and Contingencies

         Centura  Bank  is  a  co-defendant  in  two  actions  consolidated  for
discovery  in  the  Superior  Court  of  Forsyth  County,  North  Carolina.  The
plaintiffs  in these  actions  allege that Centura Bank  breached its duties and
committed other violations of law while acting as depository of substantial sums
of money  allegedly  converted  by the personal  and  financial  advisors of the
owners of such money and in connection  with the creation of  charitable  trusts
established with a portion of the funds. The cases consolidated into the subject
case (Philip A.R. Staton, Ingeborg Staton, Mercedes Staton, et als. v. G. Thomas
Brame,  Jerri  Russell  (formerly  Jerri  Brame),  Centura  Bank,  et als.) were
originally  brought in 1996. No claim for a specific amount of monetary  damages
was made in the cases until 1999. Plaintiffs are seeking compensatory and treble
damages in amounts that are material to Centura and its subsidiaries  taken as a
whole. Centura believes that Centura Bank has meritorious defenses to all claims
asserted in these cases and Centura Bank is defending the cases vigorously. In a
separate  and  related  case  instituted  in 1996  (Piedmont  Institute  of Pain
Management;  T. Stuart Meloy,  M.D.; Nancy J. Faller,  D.O. v. Poyner & Spruill,
L.L.P.  and Centura Bank),  consolidated  for discovery with the Staton cases in
the Superior Court of Forsyth County, North Carolina, Centura Bank is alleged to
have provided the plaintiffs with false information  regarding the establishment
and  funding  of a medical  clinic by  failing to  exercise  reasonable  care or
competence in obtaining such information, and to have committed other violations
of law.  Plaintiffs  allege that they were damaged as a result of Centura Bank's
actions and seek specific  performance or recovery of money damages in an amount
that is material to Centura and its subsidiaries  taken as a whole.  Centura and
Centura  Bank  believe  Centura  Bank has  meritorious  defenses  to all  claims
asserted  in this  case and  Centura  Bank is  defending  the  case  vigorously.
Management  does not believe that Centura or Centura  Bank have  liability  with
respect to these cases and is unable to estimate a range of loss.

Note 7:  Segment Information

         Centura has two  reportable  segments:  retail  banking  and  treasury.
Centura's   reportable  segments  represent  business  units  that  are  managed
separately.  Each segment requires specific industry  knowledge and products and
services offered have varying customer bases.

         The retail banking segment  includes  commercial  loans,  retail loans,
retail lines of credit,  credit  cards,  transaction  deposits,  time  deposits,
master notes and repurchase agreements,  and mortgage servicing and origination.
The retail  bank offers its  products  to  individuals,  small  businesses,  and
commercial  customers.  Treasury is responsible  for the Bank's  asset/liability
management including managing the Bank's investment portfolio.

         The `other' segment  includes the asset  management  division,  leasing
activities,  Centura  Securities,  Inc., Centura Insurance  Services,  Inc., and
FGHE.  Centura's asset management division provides trust and fiduciary services
as well as retirement plan design and administration. Leasing activities include
Centura's  technology  leasing  subsidiary CLG, Inc. as well as the Centura Bank
Leasing Division which together offer a broad range of lease products  including
automobile, equipment, and recreational vehicle leases. Centura Securities, Inc.
offers a competitive line of brokerage  services.  Centura  Insurance  Services,
Inc.  offers various  insurance  products to commercial and consumer  customers.
FGHE is a mortgage  and  finance  company  specializing  in  alternative  equity
lending  for  homeowners   whose  borrowing  needs  are  generally  not  met  by
traditional financial institutions.  Centura has a 49 percent ownership interest
in FGHE.

          Financial information by segment as of March 31, 1999 and 1998 is as

CENTURA BANKS, INC.
PART I.   FINANCIAL INFORMATION


Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations For the Three Months Ended March 31, 1999

         This document contains forward-looking  statements about Centura Banks,
Inc. ("Centura"). These statements can be identified by the use of words such as
"expect,"  "may,"  "could,"   "intend,"   "estimate,"  or  "anticipate."   These
forward-looking  statements  reflect current views, but are based on assumptions
and are  subject  to risks,  uncertainties  and  other  factors.  Those  factors
include,  but are not limited to, the following:  (i) expected cost savings from
pending  mergers may not be fully realized or costs or  difficulties  related to
the  integration  of the  businesses of Centura and merged  institutions  may be
greater than expected,  (ii) deposit  attrition,  customer loss, or revenue loss
following  pending  mergers  may be greater  than  expected,  (iii)  competitive
pressure in the banking industry may increase significantly, (iv) changes in the
interest rate environment may reduce margins,  (v) general economic  conditions,
either nationally or regionally, may be less favorable than expected,  resulting
in, among other things, credit quality deterioration,  (vi) changes may occur in
the regulatory  environment,  (vii) changes may occur in business conditions and
inflation,  (viii)  changes  may  occur  in the  securities  markets,  and  (ix)
disruptions  of the  operations  of Centura or any of its  subsidiaries,  or any
other  governmental  or private  entity may occur as a result of the "Year 2000"
problem.

         The  following  discussion  and  analysis is presented to assist in the
understanding  and  evaluation  of  the  financial   condition  and  results  of
operations of Centura Banks, Inc. ("Centura"). Centura is a bank holding company
operating in North Carolina,  South Carolina and Virginia.  Through Centura Bank
and its  subsidiaries,  Centura seeks to not only become the primary provider of
financial  services for each of its  customers  but to also deliver the services
through  convenient  channels  as  evidenced  by the Centura  Highway  telephone
banking center,  supermarket locations,  and home banking through leading online
money management packages.


SUMMARY

     Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1999 totaled $20.6 million,
as compared to $23.5 million earned during the same period of 1998. Including an
$8.4  million  restructuring  charge  related to the merger  with First  Coastal
Bankshares,  Inc.,  diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 1999 was
$0.71 per share  compared to the $0.83 per share earned for the first quarter of
1998.  Merger-related  expenses adversely impacted earnings per diluted share by
$0.19. Key factors responsible for these results were as follows:

o    Taxable  equivalent  net interest  income totaled $84.5 million for the
     three months ended March 31, 1999, an increase of $7.2 million over the 
     $77.3 million earned for the same period in 1998.

o    Average  loans  increased  to $5.8 billion for the three months ended March
     31,  1999  compared to $5.1  billion for the same period of 1998.  Deposits
     averaged  $6.0 billion for the first three  months of 1999,  an increase of
     $264.1 million over the prior year period.

o    Noninterest income, before securities transactions,  increased $5.7 million
     or 17.9 percent to $37.8  million for the three months ended March 31, 1999
     compared to $32.0 million  earned for the first quarter of 1998.  Excluding
     $6.9 million of non-recurring  merger-related charges,  noninterest expense
     increased $7.3 million or 10.6 percent for the period ended March 31, 1999.
     Including the merger-related expenses,  noninterest expense totaled $82.8
     million for the first quarter. 

o    Nonperforming  assets of $42.0 million at March 31, 1999  increased  
     $436,000 from March 31, 1998,  representing  0.48 percent and 0.51 percent
     of total assets, respectively.
<PAGE>

o    The allowance for loan losses was $74.1 million,  representing 1.30 percent
     of total  loans(1) at March 31,  1999,  compared  to $71.1  million  and
     1.36 percent of total loans(1) at March 31, 1998. Gross charge-offs were 
     $5.9 million,  up $2.0 million from the $3.9 million recorded for the prior
     year period. Recoveries totaled $824,000 and $935,000 for the three months 
     ended March 31, 1999 and 1998,  respectively.  The  provision for loan 
     losses was $6.3  million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 versus 
     $3.4 million for the same period of 1998.

INTEREST-EARNING ASSETS

         Interest-earning  assets,  consisting primarily of loans and investment
securities,  averaged $8.0 billion for the three months ended March 31, 1999, an
increase of $861.9  million or 12.1  percent  over the average  interest-earning
assets of $7.1 billion for the three  months  ended March 31, 1998.  The primary
component of the increase was in the commercial loan portfolio which grew $632.3
million.

         Period end interest-earning assets at March 31, 1999 were $8.0 billion,
representing  a $531.9  million or 7.2 percent  increase over the level at March
31, 1998. For additional information on average  interest-earning  assets, refer
to Table 3, "Net Interest Income Analysis,  Taxable Equivalent Basis," and Table
8, "Net Interest Income and Volume/Rate Analysis, Taxable Equivalent Basis."

Loans

         Loans,  the largest  component of  interest-earning  assets,  were $5.8
billion at March 31, 1999,  an increase of $492.1  million,  or 9.2 percent over
the $5.3 billion at March 31, 1998. Table 1 summarizes  total loans  outstanding
and the mix of loans being held.  Commercial loans represent the largest portion
of the loan  portfolio  at 52.9  percent and 49.2  percent at March 31, 1999 and
1998, respectively,  while the second largest component,  residential mortgages,
comprised 31.3 percent and 33.3 percent, respectively.

         Loans  averaged $5.8 billion for the three months ended March 31, 1999,
increasing  14.0  percent  over the average loan balance of $5.1 billion for the
comparable prior year period. Average loan growth was driven primarily by volume
generated  in the  commercial  loan  portfolio.  On  average,  commercial  loans
increased  $632.3 million  between the two three-month  periods.  Consumer loans
(equity lines,  residential mortgages,  installment loans, and other credit line
loans) were higher, on average,  by $126.5 million or 6.8 percent over the prior
year period. Average loans represented 73.0 percent of average  interest-earning
assets for the three months ended March 31,  1999,  increasing  120 basis points
from the 71.8 percent for the same prior year period.

         Credit is extended by Centura Bank almost  exclusively  to customers in
its market areas of North  Carolina,  the Hampton Roads region of Virginia,  and
South Carolina. Although not a significant part of Centura's lending activities,
foreign  credit is  extended  on a case by case basis and is subject to the same
credit and approval process as other commercial loans including an assessment of
country  risk.   Management   discourages  loans  to  high  technology  start-up
companies,  to highly  speculative  real  estate  development  projects,  and to
participation in highly leveraged  transactions.  The loan portfolio is reviewed
on an  on-going  basis  to  maintain  diversification  by  industry,  geographic
location, type of loan, collateral and borrower.

         Loans generated  $125.3 million of taxable  equivalent  interest income
for the three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to $117.4  million  generated
in 1998.  Growth in average loan volume was responsible for $16.0 million of the
increase while the rate environment and changes in product mix impacted interest
income  negatively  by $8.1  million.  The average  yield on the loan  portfolio
declined 61 basis points to 8.60 percent.

March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

Investment Securities

         Investment   securities  represent  the  second  largest  component  of
interest-earning   assets.  The  investment   portfolio  consists  primarily  of
securities  for which an active  market  exists.  Centura's  policy is to invest
primarily in  securities  of the U.S.  Government  and its agencies and in other
high grade fixed income securities so as to balance liquidity risk, credit risk,
and price risk with an acceptable market return in the investment portfolio.  At
March 31, 1999,  investment securities totaled $2.1 billion, an increase of $5.4
million or 0.3 percent over the $2.1 billion at March 31, 1998. On average,  the
investment  portfolio  grew $128.2  million to $2.1 billion for the  three-month
period ending March 31, 1999 as compared  with the same prior year period.  As a
percentage  of  average   interest-earning   assets,  the  investment  portfolio
represented  26.3 percent and 27.7 percent,  respectively,  for the three months
ended March 31, 1999 and 1998.

         The held to  maturity  ("HTM")  investment  portfolio  declined  $145.6
million between comparable periods to total $65.7 million at March 31, 1999. The
decrease  was due to scheduled  maturities  within the  portfolio.  At March 31,
1999, the fair value of the HTM portfolio was $67.9 million,  representing  $2.2
million more than amortized cost.

         The available for sale ("AFS")  investment  portfolio is used as a part
of Centura's asset/liability  management strategy and may be sold in response to
changes in  interest  rates,  changes  in  prepayment  risk,  the need to manage
regulatory  capital and other factors.  At March 31, 1999, AFS investments  were
$2.0 billion,  up $150.9  million  compared with $1.9 billion at March 31, 1998.
The recorded  fair value of the AFS  portfolio  exceeded the  amortized  cost by
$10.5 million at March 31, 1999, which amount has been recorded,  net of tax, as
a separate component of other comprehensive income.

         Taxable  equivalent  interest  income on investment  securities for the
three  months  ended March 31, 1999 was $33.4  million,  an increase of $458,000
over the $32.9  million  earned in the  comparable  period of 1998.  Changes  in
interest  rates,  product mix, and credit  spreads  reduced  taxable  equivalent
interest  income by $1.5  million  whereas  volume  increases  contributed  $2.0
million.  The average  yield on  investments  declined  33 basis  points to 6.39
percent between the two periods.


FUNDING SOURCES

         Funding  sources  include total  deposits,  short-term  borrowings  and
long-term debt. Funding sources averaged $7.9 billion for the three month period
ended  March 31,  1999,  an $854.1  million or 12.1  percent  increase  from the
average balance of $7.1 billion at March 31, 1998. For additional information on
funding  sources  refer to Table  3,  "Net  Interest  Income  Analysis,  Taxable
Equivalent Basis",  and Table 8, "Net Interest Income and Volume/Rate  Analysis,
Taxable Equivalent Basis".

Deposits

         Total deposits,  whose major categories  include money market accounts,
savings accounts,  individual retirement accounts, time deposits and transaction
accounts increased  moderately to $6.0 billion, up $117.4 million or 2.0 percent
over 1998.
<PAGE>

         Average deposits  increased $264.1 million or 4.6 percent to total $6.0
billion at March 31, 1999.  Average  deposits for the  three-month  period ended
March 31, 1998 were $5.7 billion.  Average certificates of deposit ("CD's") with
balances less than  $100,000,  decreased  $144.1  million or 7.3 percent.  Money
market  accounts  experienced  the largest growth in the portfolio  growing,  on
average, $276.4 million or 26.9 percent as compared to the same period for 1998.
Centura's  money market  accounts offer  competitive  rates and provide  greater
customer  flexibility.  Average checking and  noninterest-bearing  deposits grew
$38.6 million or 5.2 percent and $105.9  million or 13.3 percent,  respectively.
From a portfolio mix perspective, the largest changes occurred between the money
market accounts, increasing from 17.9 percent to 21.7 percent and CD's less than
$100,000,   decreasing  from  34.3  percent  to  30.4  percent.  For  additional
information on deposits,  see Table 2, "Average Deposit Mix for the Three Months
Ended."

         Interest  expense on deposits  decreased  $3.9 million to $50.1 million
for the  three  months  ended  March  31,  1999  versus  $54.0  million  for the
comparable   period  of  1998.  As  shown  in  Table  3,  "Net  Interest  Income
Analysis-Taxable  Equivalent  Basis",  the  cost  of  interest-bearing  deposits
declined 45 basis points to 3.98  percent.  The decline in the cost of funds was
evident throughout all deposit products.

Other Funding Sources

         Slower  deposit  growth  in recent  periods  influenced  management  to
increase the utilization of alternative  nondeposit funding sources.  During the
first  quarter,  Centura  issued $125 million of 6.5 percent  subordinated  bank
notes.  Consistent  with  Centura's  asset/liability   strategy,   Centura  also
continues  to  utilize  short-term  and  long-term  debt  as a  funding  source.
Consequently,  short-term borrowed funds, predominantly Federal funds purchased,
securities sold under repurchase  agreements and master notes,  increased $400.6
million on average to total $1.3  billion at March 31,  1999.  At March 31, 1999
and 1998,  borrowings totaled $1.1 billion and $1.0 billion,  respectively.  The
increase was driven by increases of $92.6  million and $79.8  million in federal
funds purchased and master notes,  respectively.  Interest expense on borrowings
increased by $2.9 million, primarily due to higher volume. The average rate paid
for these funds dropped 85 basis points over the comparable  1998 period to 4.86
percent.

         At March 31, 1999,  long-term debt,  consisting  predominantly  of FHLB
advances, Capital Securities, subordinated bank notes and notes secured by lease
rentals, totaled $734.9 million as compared to $447.2 million at March 31, 1998.
The majority of the increase  resulted  from the issuance of the $125 million in
subordinated  bank notes  described  above and an increase of $178.3  million in
borrowings  from the Federal  Home Loan Bank of Atlanta.  The average  amount of
long-term  debt  increased  $189.4 million to $622.6 million for the first three
months of 1999 compared to $433.2 million for the comparable  prior year period.
Rates paid for long-term  funding  decreased to 5.62  percent,  a 40 basis point
decline over the prior year period.


NET INTEREST INCOME AND NET INTEREST MARGIN

         Net interest  income for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998
was $82.8  million  and $75.5  million,  respectively.  On a taxable  equivalent
basis,  net interest  income  increased $7.2 million to $84.5 million from $77.3
million the prior year.  The  increase  was  primarily  due to a $861.9  million
increase in average  interest-earning  asset  volume  which  outpaced the $748.2
million increase in average interest-bearing  liabilities. As indicated on Table
8, "Net Interest Income and Volume/Rate  Analysis-Taxable Equivalent Basis", the
distribution  of  balance  sheet  growth  contributed  $9.2  million  to taxable
equivalent  net  interest  income with the rate  environment  impacting  taxable
equivalent net interest income unfavorably by $2.0 million.
<PAGE>

         The net interest margin, taxable equivalent net interest income divided
by average  interest-earning  assets, declined 10 basis  points  between the two
three-month  periods to 4.22  percent.  The margin was  impacted by the interest
rate environment,  tighter credit spreads, increased competition, and changes in
the product mix. The yield earned on  interest-earning  assets declined 49 basis
points   between   the  two   comparable   periods   while   the  rate  paid  on
interest-bearing liabilities declined only 43 basis points.


ASSET QUALITY AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

         Total nonperforming assets ("NPA's"), including nonperforming loans and
foreclosed properties,  were $42.0 million at March 31, 1999 compared with $41.5
million at March 31, 1998.  As a  percentage  of total  assets,  NPA's were 0.48
percent  and  0.51  percent  at March  31,  1999 and  1998,  respectively.  As a
percentage of total loans and foreclosed  property(2),  NPA's  declined 6 basis
points to 0.73 percent.  The increase in nonperforming loans between the periods
was principally  from the leasing  portfolio.  Foreclosed  property totaled $5.6
million and $6.8 million at March 31, 1999 and March 31, 1998, respectively.

         Net  charge-offs  were 0.36  percent of average  loans(3) for the first
quarter  of 1999  versus  0.23  percent  for the  same  period  of  1998.  Gross
charge-offs  were $5.9 million and $3.9 million while  recoveries  were $824,000
and $935,000  for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998,  respectively.
Commercial loan charge-offs increased $1.1 million, representing 33.6 percent of
net charge-offs for the first quarter. Leasing charge-offs  increased $785,000, 
a result of increases in problem assets in the leasing portfolio and represented
23.0 percent of first quarter net charge-offs. The remainder of the increase in 
charge-offs is spread amongst various loan categories.

         For the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998,  the  provision for
loan losses was $6.3 million and $3.4 million, respectively, an increase of $2.9
million.  Of the $6.3  million  charged in 1999,  $1.5 million was incurred as a
result of the merger with First Coastal in order to align the allowance for loan
loss factors  between the two merged  entities.  The  remaining  increase in the
provision  for loan losses was in response to growth in the loan  portfolio  and
the higher level of charge-offs.

         The  allowance  for loan  losses was $74.1  million at March 31,  1999,
representing 1.30 percent of loans outstanding(2), compared to $71.1 million, or
1.36 percent of loans outstanding(2) at March 31, 1998.  At March 31, 1999, the
allowance for loan losses was 2.04 times  nonperforming  loans,  a 1 basis point
decline from the coverage at March 31, 1998.  For  additional  information  with
respect to the activity in the allowance for loan losses,  see Table 4 "Analysis
of Allowance for Loan Losses."

Accruing  loans past due ninety or more days were $12.1  million,  $11.5 million
and $9.1  million at March 31,  1999,  March 31,  1998 and  December  31,  1998,
respectively,  which represented 0.21 percent,  0.22 percent and 0.16 percent of
outstanding loans, respectively

         Management  believes  the AFLL to be  adequate  based upon its  current
judgment,  evaluation, and analysis of the loan portfolio.  Centura continuously
monitors  overall  credit  quality and manages its credit  processes,  including
loans in past  due and  nonaccrual  status.  The  AFLL  represents  management's
estimate of an amount adequate to provide for potential  current losses inherent
in the loan  portfolio.  However,  there are  additional  risks of future losses
which  cannot be  quantified  precisely or  attributed  to  particular  loans or
classes of loans. Because those risks include general economic trends as well as
conditions affecting individual borrowers,  management's judgment of the AFLL is
necessarily  approximate  and imprecise.  The AFLL is also subject to regulatory
examinations and determinations as to adequacy, which may take into account such
factors as the  methodology  used to calculate the AFLL and the size of the AFLL
in comparison to peer banks identified by the regulatory agencies. No assurances
can be given  that the  ongoing  evaluation  of the loan  portfolio  in light of
economic   conditions  and  other  factors  then  prevailing  will  not  require
significant future additions to the AFLL, thus adversely affecting the operating
results of Centura.

         In addition to  nonperforming  assets and past due loans shown in Table
5,  management  has  identified  approximately  $50  million  in loans  that are
currently  performing  in  accordance  with  contractual  terms that  management
believes may become  nonperforming  during the remaining  term of the loan.  One
loan  accounts  for  approximately  $25 million of this  amount.  This loan is a
participation in a secured loan to a manufacturing corporation.


NONINTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSE

         Noninterest income ("NII") grew $5.9 million, or 18.3 percent, to $38.2
million for the three  months  ended  March 31,  1999 as compared  with the same
period in 1998.  Total  revenues,  defined as the sum of taxable  equivalent net
interest income and noninterest  income, as a percentage of noninterest  income,
grew 166 basis points to 31.2 percent during the first quarter  compared to 29.5
percent in the first quarter of 1998. NII, excluding securities gains, was $37.8
million and $32.0 million at March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

     The growth in NII was driven by  increases  in service  charges on deposits
and mortgage income.  Service charges on deposits, the largest component of NII,
increased $2.1 million  between the two three-month  periods.  This increase was
principally  the result of a mid-1998  restructuring  of fees  related to retail
checking  account  products.  Mortgage income  (composed of servicing  revenues,
origination fees,  servicing  release  premiums,  and net gains or losses on the
sales  of  mortgage  loans)   increased  $2.9  million  between  the  comparable
three-month  periods,  principally  as a result of  increased  loan volume and a
decrease of $53.2 million in the mortgage warehouse portfolio. Further impacting
the growth in NII was the acquisition of Capital  Advisors,  which, in the first
quarter,  generated  $803,000  of broker  loan  fees.  Fees for trust  services,
insurance  and  brokerage  commissions,  and other  service  charges  were up by
$339,000, $403,000 and $429,000, respectively.

     Excluding $6.9 million of non-recurring merger-related charges, noninterest
expense  totaled $76.0 million,  an increase of $7.3 million or 10.6 percent for
the  period  ended  March  31,  1999.  Including  the  merger-related  expenses,
noninterest  expense  totaled  $82.8  million  for the  first  quarter  of 1999.
Personnel  expenses,  the largest component of NIE,  contributed $5.9 million to
this increase,  influenced strongly by additional personnel related to the first
quarter 1999  acquisitions as well as the merger with Pee Dee  Bankshares,  Inc.
which was completed on March 27, 1998.  Full-time  equivalent additions were 168
between the two periods.
<PAGE>

         Fees for outsourced services, i.e. the outsourcing of various functions
such as items processing,  property  management,  and call processing  generated
from  Centura's  telephone  banking  center,  are  strongly  volume  based,  and
increased  $627,000 over the three months ended March 31, 1998. The increase was
due to greater  volumes  associated  with  growth in the  customer  base and the
integration of new customers  gained through  acquisitions.  Other components to
the  increase  in NIE  included  increases  of $700,000  in  occupancy  expense,
$656,000 in telephone costs,  $347,000 in intangibles  amortization and $822,000
for other  expenses.  Favorably  impacting  NIE were  decreases  of  $625,000 in
marketing expense, $353,000 in equipment expense and $241,000 in data processing
and software costs.

         In the first  quarter,  Centura also incurred  expense  related to Year
2000 remediation  efforts.  Direct and indirect  expenses  incurred in the first
quarter,  which are included  throughout the various  components of NIE, totaled
$2.0  million.  Refer to the "Year  2000"  section  for  additional  information
concerning the Year 2000 issue.

         The efficiency ratio for the three-month  period ended March 31, 1999
was 61.88 percent,  an improvement of 77 basis points as compared to the 62.65
percent recorded for the same period in 1998.


INCOME TAX EXPENSE

         Income tax expense  recorded  for the three months ended March 31, 1999
was $11.4 million  compared to $12.2  million in the prior  period.  The current
effective  tax rate is 35.57  percent,  up from the 34.28  percent  at March 31,
1998.


EQUITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Shareholders'  equity as of March 31, 1999 was $692.6 million  compared
to $618.9 at March 31,  1998.  The ratio of  shareholders'  equity to period end
assets was 7.92  percent at March 31,  1999,  up from 7.60 percent at period end
March 31, 1998.  The change in equity  between the two periods was influenced by
the retention of earnings,  the issuance of common stock in connection  with the
acquisition of Capital Advisors,  and the exercise of stock options.  Offsetting
increases  to  shareholders'  equity  between the two periods was the payment of
dividends.  Shareholders'  equity also included unrealized gains, net of tax, on
securities available for sale of $6.5 million at March 31, 1999 compared to $8.5
million for the comparable period last year.

         Centura's  common stock is traded on the New York Stock  Exchange under
the symbol CBC. At March 31, 1999,  Centura had 28,494,755  shares  outstanding.
Cash dividends of $7.8 million were paid for the first three months of 1999.

         Centura's   capital  ratios  are  greater  than  minimums  required  by
regulatory guidelines. It is Centura's intent to maintain an optimal capital and
leverage mix within the regulatory  framework while providing a basis for future
growth. At March 31, 1999, Centura had the required capital levels to qualify as
well capitalized. At March 31, 1999, Tier I capital was $662.0 million and total
capital was $829.3  million.  For  risk-based  capital  calculations,  Centura's
Capital  Securities  are  included as a component  of Tier I capital.  Centura's
capital ratios are outlined in Table 6 titled "Capital Ratios."
<PAGE>

LIQUIDITY

         Centura's  liquidity  management  objective  is to meet  maturing  debt
obligations,   fund  loan  commitments  and  deposit  withdrawals,   and  manage
operations  on a cost  effective  basis.  Management  believes  that  sufficient
resources are available to meet Centura's  liquidity  objective through its debt
maturity structure, holdings of liquid assets, and access to the capital markets
through a variety of funding vehicles.

         Investment  securities  are an important  tool to  Centura's  liquidity
management  objective.   Management,  at  its  discretion,  may  elect  to  sell
investments from its available for sale portfolio to meet liquidity needs.

         Centura's traditional funding sources include established federal funds
lines with major banks,  advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank, proceeds from
matured  investments,  principal  repayments on loans,  and core deposit growth.
Centura also has an unsecured bank note facility for institutional investors. As
of March 31, 1999 and 1998, $125 million and $0 in bank notes were  outstanding.
In addition,  Centura accepts  Eurodeposits,  has a master note commercial paper
facility, and offers brokered certificates of deposits.

         Management  is not  aware  of any  events  or  uncertainties  that  are
reasonably  likely to have a material  effect on  Centura's  liquidity,  capital
resources,  or operations.  In addition,  management is not aware of any pending
regulatory  developments  or  proposals,  which,  if  implemented,  would have a
material effect on Centura.


ASSET/LIABILITY AND INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT

         Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse  changes in market  prices
and rates.  Centura's  market risk primarily  stems from interest rate risk, the
potential  economic  loss due to future  changes  in  interest  rates,  which is
inherent in lending and deposit gathering activities.  Centura's objective is to
manage the mix of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities to minimize interest
rate risk and stabilize  the net interest  margin and the market value of equity
while optimizing profit potential.

         Centura's  Asset/Liability  Management  Committee  seeks to  maintain a
general  balance between  interest-sensitive  assets and liabilities to insulate
net interest income and shareholders' equity from significant adverse changes in
market  interest  rates.  Mismatches in interest  rate  repricings of assets and
liabilities  arise from the interaction of customer business needs and Centura's
discretionary asset and liability management activities.  Exposure to changes in
the  level  and  direction  of  interest  rates  is  managed  by  adjusting  the
asset/liability  mix through the use of various  interest  rate risk  management
products, including derivative financial instruments.

         Off-balance sheet derivative  financial  instruments,  such as interest
rate swaps,  interest rate floor and cap  arrangements and interest rate futures
and option  contracts  ("swaps",  "floors",  "caps",  "futures"  and  "options,"
respectively),  are an integral part of Centura's  interest rate risk management
activities. Centura has principally utilized interest rate swaps. Swaps are used
to manage interest rate risk, reduce funding costs, and allow Centura to utilize
diversified  funding  sources.  Floors  are used to protect  certain  designated
variable rate financial instruments from the downward effects of their repricing
in the event of a decreasing rate environment.  Caps are used to protect certain
designated  financial  instruments  from the  negative  repricing  effects of an
increasing rate environment.  Options provide the right, but not the obligation,
to put or call  securities  back to a third  party at an agreed upon price under
the specific terms of each agreement.  Table 7,  "Off-Balance  Sheet  Derivative
Financial  Instruments",   summarizes  Centura's  off-balance  sheet  derivative
financial  positions at March 31, 1999.  On-balance sheet and off-balance  sheet
financial  instruments  are managed on an integrated  basis as part of Centura's
overall  asset/liability  management function. The value of any single component
of the  on-balance  sheet or  off-balance  sheet  position  should not be viewed
independently.
<PAGE>

CURRENT ACCOUNTING ISSUES

         In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133  "Accounting  for Derivative
Instruments  and Hedging  Activities"  ("SFAS  133").  The  statement  addresses
accounting and reporting requirements for derivative instruments and for hedging
activities.  SFAS 133 requires  that all  derivatives  be  recognized  as either
assets  or  liabilities  in  the  consolidated  balance  sheet  and  that  those
instruments  be  measured  at fair  value.  If  certain  conditions  are met,  a
derivative  may be designated as a hedge of exposure to changes in fair value of
an  asset  or  liability,   exposure  to  variable  cashflows  of  a  forecasted
transaction or exposure of foreign currency denominated forecasted transactions.
The  accounting  for  changes in the fair value of a  derivative  depends on the
intended  use of the  derivatives  and its  resulting  designation.  SFAS 133 is
effective for all quarters of fiscal years  beginning  after June 15, 1999. This
statement should not be applied  retroactively to financial  statements of prior
periods.  Management  has not quantified the impact of adopting SFAS 133 nor has
the timing of the adoption been determined.

         The FASB  also  issues  exposure  drafts  for  proposed  statements  of
financial accounting standards. Such exposure drafts are subject to comment from
the  public,  to  revisions  by the FASB and to  final  issuance  by the FASB as
statements of financial accounting standards. Management considers the effect of
the proposed statements on the consolidated  financial statements of Centura and
monitors  the  status of  changes  to issued  exposure  drafts  and to  proposed
effective dates.


YEAR 2000

         The Year 2000 issue confronting  Centura and its suppliers,  customers,
customers'  suppliers,  and  competitors  centers on the  inability  of computer
systems to recognize the Year 2000. Many existing  computer programs and systems
were originally programmed with six digit dates that provided only two digits to
identify the  calendar  year,  without  considering  the upcoming  change in the
century.

         Centura  formulated the initial Year 2000 awareness  program in 1996. A
steering committee with  representation from all the major areas of the bank and
executive   management  was  established  to  determine   internal   operational
requirements to make its systems Year 2000 compliant. A formal Year 2000 Project
Plan was drafted and approved by the board of directors in 1998. In this effort,
Centura has  followed  the five  management  phases  recommended  by the Federal
Financial Institutions Examination Council: (1) awareness,  (2) assessment,  (3)
renovation,  (4)  validation,  and (5)  implementation.  The  project  has  been
organized  along  functional   lines  to  ensure  that  information   technology
(mainframe and distributed  applications),  vendors and other third parties, and
the customer base will receive adequate resource attention.

         For its internal  systems,  Centura has completed the assessment  phase
with a complete inventory of all hardware and software that could potentially be
impacted.  A risk scoping  analysis  determined the schedule for remediation and
testing  to ensure  that  mission  critical  systems  would  have ample time for
extensive validation. Through code enhancements, hardware and software upgrades,
and systems  replacement,  where  needed,  Centura has  completed  renovation or
replacement of all of its mission-critical  systems.  Initial system testing and
validation of internal and external  mission-critical systems is complete. Final
integrated  testing and validation of all systems is on schedule to be completed
by June 30, 1999.

         Centura's  assessment  phase  included the  identification  of external
vendors,   significant  customers  and  borrowers,  market  partners,  and  fund
providers whose operations and state of Year 2000 readiness may have a potential
impact on Centura.  Relationships with third parties in which electronic data is
exchanged  exposes  Centura  to some risk of loss in the  event the other  party
makes a mistake  or is  unable to  perform.  In the Year 2000  context,  Centura
continues to work to identify  where such  exposure may exist and has  developed
contingency  plans in order to minimize risk of loss due to third  parties' Year
2000 vulnerabilities.
<PAGE>

         Centura is exposed to credit risk due to the  failure of its  borrowers
to properly  remediate their own systems as well as address their own customers'
or suppliers' Year 2000 state of readiness.  Centura continues its due diligence
process of identifying  all borrowers  representing a material Year 2000 related
risk, evaluating their Year 2000 preparedness, assessing the aggregate Year 2000
borrower risk to Centura, and developing appropriate risk controls to manage and
mitigate the Year 2000 customer  risk.  As part of this  process,  borrowers are
assigned a risk rating based on their Year 2000  compliance  readiness  which is
being used to assess the need for additional specific loan loss reserves.

         Management  is in the process of  validating  contingency  plans in the
event that final validation  efforts for remediated systems are not completed in
accordance with current expectations.  The Year 2000 contingency plans have been
designed to address any  validation  failure and to address  failures of systems
outside Centura. The plans incorporate the use of third party service providers,
alternate  vendors,  and other  contingency  service  providers.  Validation  of
Centura's Year 2000 contingency plans is on schedule to be completed by June 30,
1999.

         Monitoring  and managing  the Year 2000 project  continues to result in
additional nonrecurring expenditures.  Direct costs include potential charges by
third party software vendors for product enhancements, costs involved in testing
software  products  for  Year  2000  compliance,  and any  resulting  costs  for
developing and implementing  contingency  plans for critical  software  products
which were not enhanced.  In addition to the direct costs,  indirect  costs have
also been incurred. These indirect costs consist principally of the time devoted
by existing employees in monitoring  software vendor progress,  testing enhanced
software  products,  and implementing any necessary  contingency plans. The Year
2000 project cost estimates include the estimated costs and time associated with
the  assessment  and monitoring of a third party's Year 2000 risk, and are based
on presently available information.  However, there can be no guarantee that the
systems  of other  companies  on which  Centura's  systems  rely  will be timely
converted,  or that failure to convert by another company,  or a conversion that
is incompatible with Centura's systems, would not have a material adverse effect
on Centura in future periods.  The Emerging Issues Task Force provided  guidance
concerning the accounting for the costs related to Year 2000  modification.  The
costs of the  modifications  continue to be treated as regular  maintenance  and
repair and are charged to expense as incurred.

         The  direct  and  indirect  costs are not  expected  to have a material
effect on Centura's  results of operations.  However,  the  distribution of Year
2000 expenses  between  direct and indirect may change due to the  allocation of
internal  resources.  Including  direct and  indirect  expenditures,  management
currently  estimates  that the total  costs to become Year 2000  compliant  will
range between $8.0 and $10.0 million.  The revised  estimate,  made in the third
quarter  of 1998,  was a result of  allocating  a greater  proportion  of salary
expense to Year 2000  expense  for those  Centura  employees  who are working to
resolve the Year 2000 issue.  There was no  incremental  increase to noninterest
expense  as a  result  of  this  allocation.  In  total,  Centura  has  expensed
approximately  $8.1 million in indirect  and direct  costs  related to Year 2000
compliance  efforts of which $2.0 million was incurred  during the first quarter
of 1999.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

         There  has been no  material  change in  Centura's  market  risk  since
December 31, 1998 as described  in Item 7A of  Centura's  Annual  Report on Form
10-K for the  year  ended  December  31,  1998.  Centura's  market  risk was not
materially impacted by mergers accounted for as pooling-of-interests.

CENTURA BANKS, INC.
PART II.   OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

         Centura  Bank  is  a  co-defendant  in  two  actions  consolidated  for
discovery  in  the  Superior  Court  of  Forsyth  County,  North  Carolina.  The
plaintiffs  in these  actions  allege that Centura Bank  breached its duties and
committed other violations of law while acting as depository of substantial sums
of money  allegedly  converted  by the personal  and  financial  advisors of the
owners of such money and in connection  with the creation of  charitable  trusts
established with a portion of the funds. The cases consolidated into the subject
case (Philip A.R. Staton, Ingeborg Staton, Mercedes Staton, et als. v. G. Thomas
Brame,  Jerri  Russell  (formerly  Jerri  Brame),  Centura  Bank,  et als.) were
originally  brought in 1996. No claim for a specific amount of monetary  damages
was made in the cases until 1999. Plaintiffs are seeking compensatory and treble
damages in amounts that are material to Centura and its subsidiaries  taken as a
whole. Centura believes that Centura Bank has meritorious defenses to all claims
asserted in these cases and Centura Bank is defending the cases vigorously. In a
separate  and  related  case  instituted  in 1996  (Piedmont  Institute  of Pain
Management;  T. Stuart Meloy,  M.D.; Nancy J. Faller,  D.O. v. Poyner & Spruill,
L.L.P.  and Centura Bank),  consolidated  for discovery with the Staton cases in
the Superior Court of Forsyth County, North Carolina, Centura Bank is alleged to
have provided the plaintiffs with false information  regarding the establishment
and  funding  of a medical  clinic by  failing to  exercise  reasonable  care or
competence in obtaining such information, and to have committed other violations
of law.  Plaintiffs  allege that they were damaged as a result of Centura Bank's
actions and seek specific  performance or recovery of money damages in an amount
that is material to Centura and its subsidiaries  taken as a whole.  Centura and
Centura  Bank  believe  Centura  Bank has  meritorious  defenses  to all  claims
asserted  in this  case and  Centura  Bank is  defending  the  case  vigorously.
Management  does not believe that Centura or Centura  Bank have  liability  with
respect to these cases and is unable to estimate a range of loss.

       Various other legal proceedings against Centura and its subsidiaries have
arisen from time to time in the normal course of business.  Management  believes
liabilities  arising  from  these  proceedings,  if any,  will have no  material
adverse effect on the financial  position or results of operations of Centura or
its subsidiaries.
