BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been 
     prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for 
     interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-QSB and
     Regulation S-B.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
     information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
     principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of
     management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements include all
     adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring accruals) considered
     necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of
     operations and cash flows for the interim periods.

     Results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 
     1996 and cash flows for the six month period ended June 30, 1996 are
     not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
     year to end December 31, 1996.  These unaudited consolidated financial
     statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
     statements, accounting policies and financial notes thereto included in
     the Company's Annual Report and Form 10-KSB for the year ended
     December 31, 1995 filed with the Commission.

WEIGHTED AVERAGE SHARES OUTSTANDING

     Earnings per common share (EPS) is calculated by dividing net income by
     the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during
     the period.  The assumed exercise of stock options would not have a 
     material dilutive effect.  In accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles, certain shares held in suspense by the Company's 
     employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) are not considered outstanding
     until they are committed to be released for allocation to participants'
     accounts.  The following table shows the computation of the weighted
     average shares outstanding.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARD

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" effective January 1, 1996.  This 
statement encourages, but does not require, adoption of a fair-value-based 
accounting method for employee stock options.  Management has elected to
continue to recognize compensation cost using the intrinsic-value-based
method of accounting in Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, 
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees."  In accordance with SFAS No. 123,
the Company will disclose in the 1996 annual Consolidated Financial 
Statements pro forma net income and earnings per share as if the fair-value-
based method had been applied in recognizing compensation cost.  The pro forma
disclosures are not expected to differ materially from the results reported 
under APB No. 25.

Results of Operations

   Net income for the second quarter of 1996 was $1,219,000, an increase of 
   38.4% from the $881,000 earned in the second quarter of 1995.  The primary
   reasons for the increase in earnings is a 10.9% increase in net interest 
   income, a 33.3% increase in non-interest income, and only a .9% increase 
   in non-interest expense.  Net income per share increased 36.2% to $.79 
   from $.58 for the second quarter of 1995.  Net income for the first six 
   months of 1996 was $2.3 million, an increase of 20.4% from the $1.9 million 
   earned in the first six months of 1995.

   Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 1996, was $3.7 
   million, 10.9% above the second quarter of 1995 due to average interest-
   earning assets increasing $55.2 million (19.3%) to $341.8 million.  
   Included in this increase, $39.0 million went to loans and $20.7 million 
   went to securities.  The average yield decreased from 8.57% to 8.28%.  
   This decrease in yield was the result of a general decline in market 
   rates.  The prime rate was down 75 basis points from the end of the 
   second quarter of 1995, and the five-year Treasury was down as much as 
   135 basis points and at June 30, 1996, was down approximately 50 basis
   points from that same period.  Average interest-bearing liabilities 
   increased 20.8% to $292.9 million and their cost decreased to 4.58% from
   4.61% in the second quarter of 1995.  The $50.5 million growth from last
   year was primarily in higher costing money market deposits, fixed rate 
   certificates, and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank.  As a 
   result, the net interest margin decreased from 4.67% in the second quarter 
   of 1995 to 4.35% in 1996.

   Net interest income for the first half of 1996 increased 8.4% from the same
   period last year.  Average interest-earning assets increased 21.1% from
   last year, and the yield on these decreased from 8.56% to 8.31%. 
   Interest-bearing liabilities increased 22.7%, while the cost increased
   from 4.38% to 4.64%.  Net interest margin averaged 4.33% for the first 
   half of this year versus 4.85% for the first half of 1995.

   The provision for loan losses was increased to $150,000 for the second
   quarter of 1996, compared to $90,000 for the same period in 1995,
   reflecting the growth of the Bank's loan portfolio.  Net charge-offs for
   the first half of 1996 were .12% of average loans, compared to .05% for
   the prior year.

   Generally, all other loans are placed on non-accrual status if they are
   90 days or more delinquent.  A loan may remain on an accrual status after
   it is 90 days delinquent if it is reasonably certain the account will be
   settled in its entirety or brought current within a 30-day period.  The
   current year's accrued interest on loans placed on non-accrual status is
   charged against earnings.  The previous year's accrued interest is 
   charged against the allowance for loan losses.  Cash payments received on
   non-accrual loans are applied against principal until the balance is
   repaid.  Any remaining payments are credited to earnings.  Non-performing
   loans include non-accrual loans, renegotiated loans and ninety days or more 
   past due loans.  All loans, except one-to four-family real estate, which are
   ten days delinquent are sent to the Collections Department for collection.
   One- to four-family real estate loans are sent when they are fifteen days
   delinquent.  As of June 30, 1996, management knew of no significant loans
   not now disclosed that would cause management to have serious doubts as
   to the ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment
   terms.

</TABLE>

   The increase in non-accrual loans at June 30, 1996, is principally 
   attributable to two commercial borrowers with loans totaling $487,000.
   Management believes the value of the related collateral, if necessary to
   collect the principal outstanding, limits the Bank's exposure to a
   potential loss of less than $40,000 including costs of collection.

<TABLE>
   At June 30, 1996, the Bank's allowance for loan losses totaled $2.6
   million and was allocated primarily to the consumer segment of the loan
   portfolio.  A similar allocation existed for all other dates presented. 
   The following table sets forth an analysis of the Bank's allowance for
   losses on loans for the periods indicated:

   Non-interest income was $728,000 for the second quarter 1996, an increase 
   of 33.3% from the $546,000 earned in the second quarter of 1995.  Although
   all categories in this section have shown increases, increased trust
   income and income from loan related processing fees accounted for the
   majority of the improvement.

   Also, gains of $86,000 were achieved during the second quarter through the
   sale of $6 million of securities to fund loan demand.

   Non-interest expense increased a modest .9% for the quarter over the same
   period in 1995.  Salaries and benefits decreased 4.7% for the quarter due
   mostly to a reduction in ESOP contributions required for distributions.
   The Company did experience an increase of 7.1 in average FTE employees.
   Equipment expense was about the same as last year.  Occupancy expense 
   increased 14.4% for the quarter due primarily to increases in general
   repairs and maintenance and utilities.  Deposit insurance was $129,000
   less than for the same quarter of last year due to the fully funded 
   status of the Bank Insurance Fund of the Federal Deposit Insurance
   Corporation.  State franchise tax has increased 5.4% due to the increase
   in Company capital on which it is based.  Other expense has increased
   36.2% from the second quarter of last year.  Included in that category
   were increased data processing fees, deposit account losses, and
   telephone expense.  For the first six months of the year, total
   non-interest expense was up just 1.3% from last year.  Performance ratios
   for the second quarter of 1996 included a return on assets of 1.35%, and a
   return on equity of 14.10%, compared to 1.16% and 11.50%, respectively, for
   the second quarter of 1995.  For the first half of 1996, return on assets
   and return on equity were 1.28% and 13.36%, respectively, compared to
   1.29% and 12.81% for the first half of 1995.

   Financial Condition

   Total assets grew 15.8% from the second quarter 1995, to a total of 
   $367.2 million.  Total loans increased to $259.4 million, an increase of 
   20.0%.  Commercial and personal loans continue to provide the majority of
   the internal growth.  In November 1995, the Bank purchased $20 million of
   1-4 family real estate loans in the secondary market; $12.6 million of
   that portfolio remained at June 30, 1996.  The securities portfolio has 
   grown 15.7% through the use of excess liquidity.  Total deposits increased
   9.2% to $297.7 million at June 30, 1996.  Non-interest bearing deposits
   increased $3.2 million or 9.6%.  Interest-bearing accounts grew $21.9
   million, or 9.1%.  Other borrowings increased $21.9 million as a result
   of borrowing $21.3 million from Federal Home Loan Bank to fund the real
   estate loan purchase.  Total equity increased 9.3% to $34.6 million at
   June 30, 1996.  Book value per share at June 30, 1996, was $22.33, an
   increase of 9.3% from $20.42 at the end of the second quarter last year. 
   Equity to assets was 9.42% at June 30, 1996, compared to 9.98% as of the
   end of the same quarter last year.

   The material changes that have occurred in InterCounty's financial
   condition during 1996 are as follows (in thousands):

   Other time deposits        134,649      130,251         4,398         3
</TABLE>

   Small deposit mix changes have resulted in increases in interest-bearing
   transaction accounts and retail certificates of deposit.  The securities 
   portfolio has decreased because of normal maturities and called bonds,
   and along with federal funds sold have been used to fund loans.  Loan 
   growth has primarily been in commercial and personal areas.  Increased
   premises and equipment are due to main office renovations and computer
   hardware and software purchases.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

   The maintenance of an adequate level of liquidity is necessary to ensure 
   that sufficient funds are available to meet customers' loan demand and
   deposit withdrawal.  InterCounty manages liquidity on both the asset and 
   liability side of the balance sheet.  The loan to total funds ratio at
   June 30, 1996 was 79%, compared to 77% for the same date in 1995.
   Management strives to keep this ratio below 80%.  The securities
   portfolio is primarily "available for sale" securities that are readily
   marketable.  Approximately 44% of the portfolio is pledged to secure
   public deposits and for other purposes as required by law.  The balance
   of the "available for sale" portfolio could be sold if necessary for
   liquidity purposes.  Also a stable deposit base, consisting of 93% core 
   deposits, makes the Bank less susceptible to large fluctuations in
   funding needs.

   The Federal Reserve Board has adopted risk-based capital guidelines which
   assign risk weightings to assets and off-balance sheet items and also
   define and set minimum capital requirements (risk-based capital ratios).
   Bank holding companies must maintain total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based
   and Tier 1 leverage ratios of 8%, 4% and 3%, respectively.  At June 30,
   1996, InterCounty had a total risk-based capital ratio of 13.6%, a Tier 1
   risk-based capital ratio of 12.3%, and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 9.2%.
