CITIZENS FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The accompanying
unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in
the opinion of management, necessary to a fair presentation of the results for
the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. For
further information, refer to the December 31, 1996 consolidated financial
statements and footnotes included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K.
2. In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 128, Earnings per Share, which is required to be adopted on
December 31, 1997. At that time, the Company will be required to change the
method currently used to compute earnings per share and to restate all prior
periods. Under the new requirements for calculating primary earnings per share,
the dilutive effect of stock options is excluded. The Company believes that
Statement 128 will have no impact on its primary and fully diluted earnings per
share calculations.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
FINANCIAL POSITION
Fixed maturities decreased $519,739, based on amortized cost, during the
first six months of 1997. Equity securities increased $4,534,923 and $5,824,555
on a cost and market value basis, respectively, during the same period. Gross
unrealized appreciation for available-for-sale fixed maturities and equity
securities increased $1,346,282 during the six months ended June 30, 1997.
OPERATIONS
An analysis of segment results (before federal income taxes) for the six
months and three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, is shown below.

Life and Annuity $ 74,062 $ 109,980 $245,858 $ 445,837
Accident and Health 106,522 15,969 113,293 26,356
$180,584 $ 125,949 $359,151 $ 472,193
The improvement in Life and Annuity segment results (before realized
investment gains) for the six months ended June 30, 1997 is principally
attributable to additional margins generated by improving sales and persistency
of the Integrity National Life Insurance Company (Integrity) business which
was acquired in late 1995. The improvement in the Accident and Health segment is
attributable to several Dental profitability initiatives, including product
redesign, renewal underwriting enhancements, and improved claims administration
procedures. These additional Accident and Health margins have been partially
offset by moderate increases in administrative costs associated with a 9.9%
increase in premium volume.
Total premiums and other considerations increased .2% during the first six
months of 1997 compared to the same period in 1996. The increase is primarily
attributable to a 9.9% increase in the Companys Accident and Health premiums
offset by a 7.5% decrease in Life and Annuity premiums. The Accident and Health
increase is due primarily to growth in sales of the Companys Dental products.
The Life and Annuity premium decline resulted primarily from two key state
insurance licenses not being retained after the Integrity merger and some
disruption of sales momentum during the first year of the Integrity merger.
8
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (Continued)
CASH FLOW AND LIQUIDITY
Cash flow from operations increased $1,269,107 for the six months ended
June 30, 1997 compared to a decrease of $141,072 for the same period in the
prior year. This increase was principally attributable to nonrecurring payments
during the first half of 1996 for integration costs, bonuses, agent awards and
other expenses associated with the Integrity acquisition, which were accrued as
of December 31, 1995.
The $3,585,679 of cash used in investing activities resulted primarily from
the Company's investment of brokerage account advances into fixed maturities and
stocks.
The cash provided by financing activities during the first six months of
1997 is primarily attributable to advances received from a brokerage account,
while cash provided by financing activities during the first six months of 1996
is primarily attributable to the issuance of Redeemable Convertible Preferred
Stock.
