NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL 
STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were 
prepared in accordance with instructions 
for Form 10-QSB and, therefore, do not include all disclosures 
required by generally accepted accounting 
principles for complete presentation of financial statements.  In 
the opinion of management, the consolidated 
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of 
normal recurring accruals) necessary to present 
fairly the consolidated balance sheets of KSB Bancorp, Inc., (the 
"Company") and Kingfield Savings Bank 
(the "Bank"), as of June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, the 
consolidated statements of income for the 
three and six months ended June 30, 1996 and June 30, 1995, 
and the consolidated statements of 
stockholders' equity and cash flows for the six months ended 
June 30, 1996, and June 30, 1995.  All 
significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated 
in consolidation.  The income reported 
for 1996 period is not necessarily indicative of the results that 
may be expected for the full year.  

The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to income 
and decreased by charge-offs, net of 
recoveries.  Management's periodic evaluation of the adequacy of 
the allowance is based on the Bank's 
past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the 
portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the 
borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any 
underlying collateral, and current economic conditions.

FASB Standard No. 114 was adopted at January 1, 1995.  Under this 
standard, loans considered to be 
impaired are reduced to the present value of expected future cash 
flows or to the fair value of collateral, by 
allocating a portion of the allowance for loan losses to such 
loans.  If these allocations cause the allowance 
for loan losses to require an increase, such increase is reported 
as bad debt expense.  The effect of adopting 
this standard is reported as bad debt expense, and was not 
significant for 1995.  The carrying values of 
impaired loans are periodically adjusted to reflect cash 
payments, revised estimates of future cash flows, 
and increases in the present value of expected cash flows due to 
the passage of time.  Cash payments 
representing interest income are reported as such.  Other cash 
payments are reported as reductions in 
carrying value, while increases due to changes in estimates of 
future payments and due to the passage of 
time are reported as bad debt expense and decreases are reported 
as reductions in bad debt expense.  

Loan Servicing Rights:  The company originates mortgage loans for 
sale to the secondary market, and sells the 
loans with servicing retained.  Effective January 1, 1996, the 
Company adopted FASB Statement 122 (FAS 
122) in accounting for mortgage servicing rights, which requires 
capitalizing the rights to service originated 
mortgage loans.  Prior to adoption of FAS 122, only purchased 
mortgage servicing rights were capitalized.  
Beginning in 1996, the total cost of mortgage loans purchased or 
originated with the intent to sell is allocated 
between the loan servicing right and the mortgage loan without 
servicing, based on their relative fair values.  
The capitalized cost of loan servicing rights is amortized in 
proportion to, and over the period of, estimated 
net future servicing revenue.

Mortgage servicing rights are periodically evaluated for 
impairment by stratifying them based on predominant 
risk characteristics of the underlying serviced loans, such as 
loan type, term, and note rate.  Impairment 
represents the excess of cost of an individual mortgage servicing 
rights stratum over its fair value, and is 
recognized through a valuation allowance.

Fair values for individual stratum are based on the present value 
of estimate future cash flows using a discount 
rate commensurate with the risk involved.  Estimates of fair 
value include assumptions about prepayment, 
default and interest rates, and other factors which are subject 
to change over time.  Changes in these 
underlying assumptions could cause the fair value of loan 
servicing rights, and the related valuation 
allowance, to change significantly in the future.

For other accounting policies, refer to the financial statements 
filed in the form 10-KSB for the year-end 
December 31, 1995.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Investment Securities Available for Sale:  Investment securities 
available for sale consist of securities that the 
Bank anticipates could be made available for sale in response to 
changes in market interest rates, liquidity 
needs, changes in funding sources and other similar factors.  
These assets are specifically identified and are 
carried at fair value.  Amortization of premiums and accretion of 
discounts are recognized in interest income 
using the interest method over the period to maturity.  
Unrealized holding gains and losses for these assets, 
net of related income taxes, are excluded from earnings and are 
reported as a net amount in a separate 
component of stockholders' equity.  When a decline in market 
value is considered other than temporary, the 
loss is recognized in the consolidated statement of income, 
resulting in the establishment of a new cost basis 
for the security.  Mortgage-backed securities are subject to risk 
of repayment which can affect the yields 
realized on the securities by increasing or decreasing the period 
over which premiums and discounts are 
recognized.

cost and estimated market values ($ in thousands):

Note 4 - LOANS HELD FOR SALE

Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary 
market are carried at the lower of cost or 
estimated market value in the aggregate.  Net unrealized losses 
are recognized in a valuation allowance by 
charges to income.

NOTE 5 - EXCESS OF COST OVER FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS ACQUIRED 
(Goodwill)

The excess of cost over fair value of net assets acquired in 
branch acquisitions is amortized to expense using 
the straight line method over ten years.  

NOTE 6 - EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

The earnings per share computation is based upon the weighted 
average number of shares of stock 
outstanding during the period.  Only ESOP shares that have been 
committed to be released are considered 
outstanding.  Effective August 12, 1996 the Company will pay a 
10% stock dividend.  Per share information is 
restated retroactively to reflect the dividend.

NOTE 7 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off balance 
sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet 
financing needs of its customers.  The financial instruments 
include commitments to make loans and unused 
lines of credit.  The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event 
of nonperformance by the other party to the 
financial instrument for commitments to make loans and unused 
lines of credit is represented by the 
contractual amount of those instruments.  The Bank follows the 
same credit policy to make such 
commitments as it follows for those loans recorded in the 
financial statements.  At June 30, 1996 and 
December 31, 1995, the Bank had commitments to make loans 
totaling $2,716,000 and $2,637,400 and unused 
lines of credit totaling $9,841,000 and $10,152,295, 
respectively. Commitments to make loans may expire 
without being used, therefore the amount does not necessarily 
represent future cash commitments.
   
Note 8 - INTEREST RATE SWAPS

The Bank is a party to two interest rate swap agreements.  The 
first, dated November 1994, has a "notional 
amount" of $2,000,000 on which it is obligated to pay interest 
based on the three month LIBOR rate, adjusting 
quarterly, and receives a fixed-rate payment.  The contract 
matures November 1997.  The Bank receives a fixed 
rate of 4.91% and, as of June 30, 1996, pays at the rate of 
5.50%.  The second agreement, dated June 1996, has 
a "notional amount" of $5,000,000 on which the Bank is obligated 
to pay interest based on the three month 
LIBOR rate adjusting quarterly, and receives a fixed-rate 
payment.  This contract matures June, 1999.  The Bank 
receives a fixed-rate of 6.63% and as of June 30, 1996, pays at 
the rate of 5.5625%.  Net interest expense for 
the period ending June 30, 1996 was $5,006.  The Bank has 
utilized interest rate swaps to partially protect its 
net interest income stream against the effects of falling rates 
on prime-based loans.  The "notional" amount is a 
figure used to calculate settlement payments and does not 
represent exposure to credit loss.  The estimated 
market value of the Bank's interest rate swaps at June 30, 1996 
was ($22,077). The Bank is party to an interest 
rate floor agreement in the notional amount of $5,000,000, dated 
June 1996, whereby the Bank receives the 
difference between 6% and the three-month LIBOR rate, but pays 
nothing if the LIBOR rate exceeds 6%.  The 
contract expires June, 1998.  The Bank paid a premium of $22,500 
for the contract which is recognized into 
interest income on a straight-line basis over the life of the 
contract.  The estimated market value of the 
agreement $27,492.
    
Note 9 - LOAN SERVICING

The unpaid principal balance of mortgage loans serviced for 
others, which are not included on the balance 
sheet, was $78,130,000 and $81,219,879 at June 30, 1996 and 
December 31, 1995, respectively.  The balance 
of loans serviced for others related to servicing rights that 
have been capitalized was $1,065,165 and $0 at 
June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively.  The remaining 
balance of loans serviced for others also 
have servicing rights associated with them; however, these 
servicing rights arose prior to adoption of FAS 
122, and accordingly, have not been capitalized on the balance 
sheet.

The carrying value and fair value of capitalized loan servicing 
rights at June 30, 1996 was $9,000.  No valuation 
allowance has yet been established.

KSB BANCORP, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION & RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

I.	General

The Company's results of operations are dependent primarily on 
the Bank.  The Bank's primary source of 
earnings is its net interest income, which is the difference 
between the interest income earned on its loans, 
mortgage-backed securities and investment portfolio versus its 
cost of funds, which consists of the interest 
paid on deposits and borrowings.  

To a lesser extent but still significant is the effect of the 
Bank's secondary mortgage market activities in which 
the Bank originates residential mortgage loans for the secondary 
mortgage market and subsequently sells the 
loans while retaining servicing rights and fees.

The Company's operating expenses consist principally of employee 
compensation and benefits, occupancy and 
equipment expenses, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation 
premiums and other general and administrative 
expenses.  The Company's results of operations are significantly 
affected by general economic and 
competitive conditions, particularly changes in market interest 
rates, as well as government policies and 
actions of regulatory authorities.
   
II.	Interest Rate Sensitivity

At June 30, 1996, the Bank's total interest-bearing liabilities 
maturing or repricing within one year exceeded 
total interest-earning assets maturing or repricing in the same 
period by $17.0 million representing a negative 
one-year cumulative interest rate sensitivity gap ratio of 14.8% 
of total assets.  This "negative" gap position 
compares to a cumulative "positive" one-year gap position of $6.6 
million or 5.2% of total assets at December 
31, 1995.  The change in the dollar gap is largely the result of 
the management's decision to protect against 
falling rates by entering into a $5.0 million interest rate swap 
and a $5.0 million interest rate floor to add to 
the Bank's current $2.0 million interest rate swap.  The $5.0 
million swap pays the Bank 6.63% fixed through 
June 1999 and the Bank pays three month LIBOR.  The interest rate 
floor pays the Bank the difference 
between 6% and the three month LIBOR until June 1998, but the 
Bank pays nothing if the three month LIBOR 
exceeds 6%.  Management feels that if rates decrease the Bank's 
prime-based loans will immediately reprice 
downward, but the Bank will not be able to drop rates 
correspondingly on its fixed-rate passbook and NOW 
accounts and MMDA accounts, a large portion of which are 
currently carried in the "one year or less" column 
in the gap calculation.  Balances in the Bank's adjustable-rate 
loans which reprice in one to three years or less 
are stable while fixed rate 15-year loan balances are up $5.0 
million since December 31, 1995.  This contributes 
to the "negative" gap position.  Management determined that the 
Bank could hold some saleable 15-year 
mortgages (which typically pay off in five to seven years) 
without undue interest rate risk.  The "gap" 
measurement is based on an internal analysis by Bank management, 
which includes subjective evaluation of the 
rate sensitivity of the Bank's money market and other short-term 
deposit accounts, and certain assumptions 
regarding prepayments on the Bank's loan and mortgage-backed 
security portfolio.  (Refer to Interest rate 
sensitivity table which follows).
    
The following table sets forth the amounts of interest earning 
assets and interest-bearing liabilities 
outstanding at June 30, 1996 which are anticipated by the Bank, 
based upon certain assumptions, to reprice 
or mature in each of the future time periods shown.  Except as 
stated below, the amount of assets and 
liabilities shown which reprice or mature during a particular 
period were determined in accordance with 
the earlier of term to repricing or the contractual terms of the 
asset or liability.  Fixed-rate Passbook Savings 
and NOW accounts, which totaled $20.1 million at June 30, 1996 
are assumed to be withdrawn at the annual 
percentage rates of 17% and 37% respectively.  Money market 
accounts are assumed to reprice in three-months 
or less. Certificate accounts are assumed to reprice at the date 
of contractual maturity.  Fixed-rate mortgages 
totaling $24.1 million (included in the "Mortgage Loans" 
category) are amortized using a constant prepayment 
rate ("CPR") of 8.0 which approximates the Bank's prior 
experience.  Fixed-rate loans in "other loans" are 
amortized with the assumption of no prepayment.  Mortgage backed 
securities are amortized primarily using a 
CPR of 15.0.

III.	Financial Condition

Total assets increased $7.3 million or 5.8% to $132.5 million at 
June 30, 1996. This was primarily attributable to 
the internal generation of $8.6 million of net new loans.  The 
Bank also purchased $5.3 million in short-term 
mortgage-backed securities to make better use of short-term 
liquidity.  Total portfolio loans increased by 
$8.1 million, or 9.5%.  Real Estate Loans to Be Sold increased by 
$0.6 million to $1.7 million.  The Bank will put 
approximately $3.0 million of saleable loans, which have terms of 
15 years or less, into its portfolio in July 
1996.  The Bank's Commercial Loan demand remains strong as the 
Bank continues to establish itself in the 
Lewiston market.

Total deposits increased $4.3 million or 4.2% with a continued 
shift from lower-cost demand and money market 
deposits into short-term (6-12 months) certificate of deposit. 

Borrowed funds at June 30, 1996 totaling $13.3 million includes 
$10.5 million of fixed-rate borrowings and 
$2.9 million of variable-rate daily borrowings from the Federal 
Home Loan Bank of Boston.  The fixed-rate 
borrowings mature $7.0 million within three-months, $2.0 million 
in 1997 and $1.5 million in October 2000.

Investment securities To Be Held to Maturity and Available for 
Sale consist primarily of U.S. 
Government-Agency and Agency-backed notes and Mortgage-backed 
securities which are predominantly of 
the type issued by U.S. Government agencies.  Of these, $3.6 
million are variable-rate securities adjusting 
annually.  The remainder are fixed-rate in nature.

Non-performing loans at June 30, 1996 were stable at $1,672,000, 
or 1.9% of total loans, compared to 
$1,645,000, or 1.9% of total loans at December 31, 1995.  The 
current balance is represented by loans 
well-secured by real estate and/or loans carrying SBA or Finance 
Authority of Maine (FAME) guarantees.  
Currently, the SBA, VA or FAME guarantee $397,000 of the 
$1,672,000 total.  Also included in 
non-performing loans are loans which are less than ninety days 
past due, but whose interest is recognized 
on a cash basis only.  These loans are restructured loans or were 
non-accrual loans in the recent past and have 
not yet demonstrated the ability to stay current.  Amounts of 
such loans are $710,000 and $835,000 at 
December 31, 1995 and June 30, 1996, respectively.  The Bank has 
charged off $230,000 net loans for the year.  
These losses had already been provided for in the Bank's past 
loan loss provision.  Management anticipates 
adding $180,000 to the loan loss allowance through December 1996 
based on current loan volumes and loan 
quality.

IV.	Comparison of Operating Results

The Company reported net income of $295,000 for the three-month 
period ended June 30, 1996, which 
represents a $135,000 increase from the $160,000 net income 
reported for the comparable three-month 
period in 1995.  Net interest income after provision for loan 
losses increased by $118,000 or 10.2%, 
non-interest income decreased by $34,000 or 12.5% for the 
three-months ended June 30, 1996 compared 
to the same period for 1995, and operating expenses for the same 
comparable periods decreased by $131,000 
or 10.8%.

The increase in net interest income is attributable to a 5% 
increase in earning assets for the 1996 period 
compared to 1995.  In addition, interest spreads increased from 
those of the second quarter of 1995 by 
approximately 22 basis points.  

Non-interest income relating to the Bank's secondary mortgage 
market activities decreased from $108,000 for 
the three-months ended June 30, 1995 to $92,000 for the 
comparable period of 1996.  The decrease resulted 
from the 1996 period being a period of rising interest rates 
which resulted in the Bank incurring losses on 
mortgage loans it sold during the period.  In addition the volume 
of loans sold in the 1996 period was lower.  
Other service charges, fees and other income increased by $28,000 
from $164,000 in the 1995 period to 
$192,000 for the 1996 period reflecting greater use of the Bank's 
fee-based deposit services and seasonal 
increase in net income from Canadian currency exchange 
transactions.  The 1996 period included a $46,000 
non-recurring loss from the default and payoff of a 100% 
guaranteed GNMA mortgage-backed security.  The 
Bank held the security at a premium which had not fully amortized 
into interest income and had to be written 
off.  This security was backed by a single guaranteed loan which 
defaulted.  The Bank's other 
mortgage-backed securities are each backed by multiple loans 
therefore the risk of any material default is 
minimal.

Non-interest expense decreased by $131,000 or 10.8% from the 
three-months ended June 30, 1995 to the 
three-months ended June 30, 1996. The Bank instituted numerous 
cost-cutting measures during 1995 
including staff reductions, closure of its Waterville, Maine, 
office.  and modifications of seasonal 
operations in its Sugarloaf/USA office. Salary reductions of 
$50,000 and lowering of normal operating 
expenses of $28,000 contributed significantly to the decrease. In 
addition, assessments paid to the Bank's 
deposit insurer, the FDIC, decreased by $26,000.

For the six months ended June 30, 1996 the Company reported net 
income of $577,000 compared to 
$264,000 for the 1995 period.

Net interest income after provision for loan losses increased by 
$310,000 or 14.2% due to an increase in 
interest spread of approximately 30 basis points and an increase 
in average earning assets of 
approximately 7%.  In March 1995 the Bank acquired four branches 
from Fleet Bank of Maine which 
increased 1995's earning assets by $19 million.  A full six 
months benefit of the increase is included in the 
1996 period whereas only three-months benefit is in the 1995 
period.

Non-interest income increased by only $3,000 or 0.6% for the 
first six months of 1996 compared to the same 
period of 1995.  This includes the $46,000 loss on securities, 
without which the increase would have been 
$49,000 or 9.3%.  Deposit-related service charges and fees 
increased by $70,000 or 26.8%.  The 1995 period 
included only three-months of income from the branches acquired.  
In addition, the second quarter of 1996 
saw an increase in the use of fee-based services and a seasonal 
increase in income from Canadian currency 
exchange transactions.  Income on mortgage origination and sale 
activity was down by $19,000 due to the 
lower volume of sales during the 1996 period sales at losses 
during 1996's rising rate period.  

Operating expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 1996 
were down 7% from $2.35 million to $2.19 
million.  The decrease is largely attributable to cost cutting 
measures taken in 1995.  

Expenses in 1996 reflect a full six months of operating the 
acquired Fleet branches and included in 1995 first 
quarter expenses are the one-time start-up costs associated with 
the branch acquisitions.  Approximately 
one-third of the decrease is attributable to a decrease of 
$54,000 in fees assessed by the FDIC. A portion 
($35.1 million) of the Bank's deposits are insured by the Savings 
Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) (an arm 
of the FDIC) in connection with the Bank's acquisition of First 
Federal Savings Association of Lewiston from 
the Resolution Trust Corporation in 1994.  Under an FDIC 
recapitalization plan being considered in the U.S. 
Congress, the SAIF deposits would be assessed a one-time fee 
(currently estimated at $230,000) by SAIF 
which would be charged to current income.  Future assessments 
would be reduced substantially under the plan.

V.	Liquidity and Capital Resources 

The primary objective of the Bank's mortgage-backed securities 
and investment securities portfolios is to 
provide for liquidity needs of the Company and to contribute to 
profitability by providing a stable cash 
flow of dependable earnings.  It is not the intent of management 
to sell these securities to generate liquidity.  
The Bank has in place available lines of credit secured by these 
securities.  In addition, the Bank currently has 
access to substantial additional funds through its borrowing 
capacity at the Federal Home Loan Bank of 
Boston.

Stockholder's equity at June 30, 1996 was $9.04 million, an 
increase of $546,000 or 6.4% over total equity at 
December 31, 1995.  The increase resulted from net income of 
$577,000 for the period, $67,000 in adjustments 
related to the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) and the Bank 
Recognition Retention Plan (RRP), less a 
$37,000 dividend paid to stockholders plus a $5,000 return of 
accumulated dividends on unallocated shares 
of the ESOP.  The net unrealized loss on securities available for 
sale increased by $66,000 for the six-months 
(net of deferred tax asset of $34,000), bringing the net increase 
in reported equity to $546,000.

At June 30, 1996, the Company's ratio of core capital to total
