Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations
     
    Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, was $683,902, or $24.88 
per share, an increase of $141,214 or 26%, compared to $542,688, or $19.73 per
share, for the corresponding period in 1996.  This increase was primarily the
result of an increase in net interest income and higher noninterest income,
which more than offset increases in the provision for loan losses and
noninterest expense. 

    Net interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, was $2,185,236, 
an increase of $311,294 over the corresponding period in the prior year.  The
following table sets forth a summary of the changes in interest earned and
interest paid resulting from changes in volume and changes in rates: 

                                           Increase (Decrease) 
                                             Due to Change In 
                                           Average      Average      Total
(In thousands)                             Balance        Rate       Change
Interest income                              $420         $12         $432
Interest expense                              237        (116)         121
                                             ----        -----        ----
Net interest income                          $183        $128         $311   

    This increase was primarily attributable to higher volume but was also
improved by an increase in interest rate spread.  Average earning assets during
the first quarter of 1997 increased by $18.5 million and average
interest-bearing liabilities increased by $15.5 million compared to the first
quarter of 1996.  The Company's average interest rate spread was 3.46% during
the first quarter of 1997 compared to 3.19% during the quarter ended March 31,
1996.  The yield on earning assets increased by nine basis points while the 
cost of funds declined by eighteen basis points.
      
    In the first quarter of 1997 the Company's provision for credit losses was
$87,000 compared to $51,000 for the first quarter of 1996.  Net charge-offs 
were $8,364 in the first quarter of 1997 compared to net recoveries of $8,015 
during the first quarter of 1996.  

    Noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 1997, was $180,832,
an increase of $33,555 over the corresponding period in 1996.  This increase is
primarily the result of an increase of $26,294 in commissions from the sales of
annuities, mutual funds, and property insurance and an increase of $5,512 in
deposit service charges. 

    Noninterest expense increased by $90,581 or 7% during the three months ended
March 31, 1997, over the corresponding period in 1996.  Salaries and benefits
expense increased $71,374 or 9% over the first quarter of 1996.  This
increase is primarily attributed to the hiring of additional staff members and
regular salary increases.    

    Return on average assets in the first quarter of 1997 was 1.29%, compared to
1.12% for the corresponding period in 1996.  Return on average equity in the
first quarter of 1997 was 10.4%, compared to 8.9% in the first quarter of 1996.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations

Financial Condition
    
    Total assets increased by $174,608 between December 31, 1996, and March 31,
1997.  Federal funds sold and cash and due from banks decreased by $1,810,669
during the quarter ended March 31, 1997.  Investments securities increased by
$924,953 and net loans increased by $858,795 during the first quarter.

    The allowance for credit losses increased by $78,636 during the quarter 
ended March 31, 1997.  The allowance equals 1.47% of total loans at March 31, 
1997, compared to 1.43% at December 31, 1996.  Nonaccrual loans totaled
$3,315,009 at March 31, 1997, an increase of $1,646 over December 31, 1996.  
The Company's ratio of loans more than 30 days past due (including nonaccrual 
loans) to total loans was 3.9% at March 31, 1997, compared  to 2.9% at December 
31, 1996.  The increase in past due loans is primarily attributed to a loan of 
$1.2 million that was 32 days past due and required a renewal note for the 
principal.  The note was renewed in April and all amounts due are paid.  
Excluding this loan, the ratio of past due loans at March 31, 1997, is 3.2%.

    Demand deposits decreased $3,764,215 or 23.4% during the first quarter of 
1997.  Interest bearing deposits decreased by $279,097 or .2% between December 
31, 1996, and March 31, 1997.  Total deposits decreased $4,043,312 or 2.7% 
during the three month period ended March 31, 1997.  Management attributes the 
decrease in demand deposits to a normal seasonal fluctuation. Demand deposits 
have increased by $1.2 million or 11% since March 31, 1996. 

    Other borrowed funds including short-term federal funds borrowed, increased
by $3,597,034 or 10% during the first three months of 1997.  Additional
borrowings were needed to offset the seasonal decline of demand deposits.

    Stockholders' equity increased by $333,570 during the first quarter of 1997
to $26,246,707 as of March 31, 1997.  As of March 31, 1997, the Company's 
leverage ratio was 12.1%, the risk-based core capital ratio was 17.4% and the 
total risk based capital ratio was 18.7%.  The Company and the Bank continue to 
maintain capital levels well above the regulatory minimum levels.    

    On March 25, 1997, the Company's board of directors declared a 
semiannual $11.50 per share dividend payable on July 1, 1997, to all 
shareholders of record on June 10, 1997.   
 
PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION

Item 5.  Other Information

    In April 1997, the Bank entered into a branch purchase agreement to acquire 
the Reedsville Branch of M&I Bank Northeast.  The transaction is subject to 
approval by regulatory agencies.  The transaction would provide the Bank 
approximately $13.5 million in cash, additional loans of approximately 
$2.5 million, and the fixed assets associated with the Branch,  in 
consideration of the assumption of almost $20 million of deposits.  The

rural Manitowoc County and provides liquidity to the Bank.
