1.   General. In the opinion of the management of Pointe Financial Corporation,

     adjustments (consisting principally of normal recurring accruals) necessary
     to present fairly the financial position at September 30, 1999, the results
     of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30,
     1999 and 1998 and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30,
     1999 and 1998. The results of operations for the three and nine months
     ended September 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
     be expected for the year ending December 31, 1999.

     the laws of the State of Florida in September 1993. The Holding Company's
     principal business is conducted through Pointe Bank (the "Bank"), a
     state-chartered commercial bank. The Holding Company and the Bank are
     collectively referred to as the "Company." The Bank provides a wide range
     of community banking services to small and middle-market business and

3.   Earnings Per Share. Earnings per share of common stock has been computed on
     the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock
     outstanding. For purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share,
     because there was no active trading market until June 12, 1998, for the
     Company's common stock, the average book value per share was used through
     that date. Average quoted market prices were used after June 12, 1998. For
     the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 outstanding
     stock options are considered dilutive securities for purposes of
     calculating diluted earnings per share. The following table presents the
     calculations of earnings per share ($ in thousands, except per share
     amounts).

5.   Other Events. In March of 1999 the Company entered into an agreement
     whereby the mortgage and note supporting a significant nonaccrual
     residential real estate loan were assigned without recourse. Net proceeds
     from the transaction reduced the Company's nonperforming assets by $1.2
     million thus reducing the ratio of nonperforming loans and foreclosed real
     estate to total assets from 1.60% at December 31, 1998 to .62% at September
     30, 1999.

6.   New Branches. During March 1999, the Company signed a contract to purchase
     land for a branch site in Coral Springs, Florida. Construction is expected
     to begin during the fourth quarter of 1999 and the branch is expected to be
     open late in the first quarter of 2000.

7.   Stock Repurchase Program. In May 1999, the Company's Board of Directors
     approved a Stock Repurchase Program ("SRP"). The SRP has been allocated
     $2.0 million and the Company has repurchased 188,400 shares in treasury
     stock. The Company's net cost was approximately $2.0 million through
     September 30, 1999. On June 25, 1999, the Company filed the appropriate
     notification with NASDAQ reducing the number of outstanding shares of
     common stock by more than five percent.

8.   Dividend Policy. In May 1999, the Company's Board of Directors approved a
     dividend policy. On May 4, 1999, the Company declared a $.05 per share
     dividend to common stockholders as of May 15, 1999 which was paid on June
     1, 1999 based on earnings of the Company during the three months ended
     March 31, 1999. On July 23, 1999, the Company declared an additional $.05
     per share dividend to common stockholders as of August 17, 1999, which was
     paid on September 1, 1999 based on earnings of the Company during the three

9.   Incentive Stock Plan. During April 1999, the Company awarded 6,935 shares
     of restricted common stock to employees under the 1998 Incentive
     Compensation and Stock Award Plan. Four years following the date of grant,
     these restricted stock awards become entirely vested. The Company is
     amortizing these restricted stock awards into salaries and employee

     period. From the date awarded, the employees are entitled to dividends paid
     on common stock and may vote these shares.

       Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
                            and Results of Operations

             Comparison of September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998


Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's primary source of cash during the nine months ended September 30,
1999 was from a net increase in advances from Federal Home Loan Bank of $15.0
million and proceeds from the sale of securities of $17.1 million. Cash was used
primarily for net loan originations of $18.3 million and the purchase of
securities totaling $25.4 million. At September 30, 1999, the Company had
outstanding commitments to originate loans of $14.5 million. Scheduled
maturities of certificates of deposit due to mature in one year or less totaled
$41.7 million. Management believes the Company has adequate resources to fund
all of its commitments using available resources and that, if desired,
certificates of deposit rates can be adjusted to attract deposits in a changing
rate environment. At September 30, 1999, the Bank exceeded its regulatory
liquidity requirements.

        Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 1999 and 1998

Results of Operations:
    General. Net earnings for the three months ended September 30, 1999 were
    $262,000 or $.12 basic and diluted earnings per share compared to net
    earnings of $107,000 or $.05 basic and diluted earnings per share for the
    three months ended September 30, 1998. This increase in the Company's net
    earnings was primarily due to an increase in net interest income and a
    decrease in the provision for loan losses, partially offset by an increase
    in noninterest expense and a decrease in noninterest income.

    Interest Income and Expense. Interest income increased by $456,000, or 13.4%
    from $3.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 1998 to $3.9
    million for the three months ended September 30, 1999. Interest income on
    loans increased $572,000, or 21.9% primarily due to an increase in the
    average loan portfolio balance from $118.4 million for the three months
    ended September 30, 1998 to $148.5 million for the comparable period in
    1999, partially offset by a decrease in the average yield from 8.83% in 1998
    to 8.58% in 1999.

    Interest expense on deposits decreased $121,000 or 8.2%, to $1.4 million for
    the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $1.5 million for the three
    months ended September 30, 1998. Interest expense on deposits decreased due
    to a decrease in the average rate paid on deposits from 4.96% in 1998 to
    4.39% in 1999, partially offset by a increase in the average balance of
    deposits from $119.1 million during 1998 to $123.7 million during 1999.

    Interest expense on borrowings increased $233,000 to $444,000 for the three
    months ended September 30, 1999 from $211,000 for the three months ended
    September 30, 1998. Interest expense on borrowings increased due to a
    increase in the average balance from $16.1 million to $34.7 million for
    three months ended September 30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1999,
    partially offset by a decrease in the average rate paid of borrowings from
    5.25% to 5.12% over the same period.

    Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses is charged to
    earnings to bring the total allowance to a level deemed appropriate by
    management and is based upon historical experience, the volume and type of
    lending conducted by the Company, industry standards, the amount of
    nonperforming loans, general economic conditions, particularly as they
    relate to the Company's market areas, and other factors related to the
    collectibility of the Company's loan portfolio. The provision was $165,000
    for the three months ended September 30, 1999 compared to $630,000 for the
    comparable period in 1998. This decrease was due to a decrease in net
    charge-offs from $452,000 in 1998 compared to $149,000 over the same period
    in 1999. The increase in net charge-offs in 1998 relate to one loan of which
    $440,000 was charged-off. Management believes the balance in the allowance
    for loan losses of $1.3 million at September 30, 1999 is adequate.

    Noninterest Income. Noninterest income decreased $222,000 primarily due to
    decreases of $162,000 in net realized gains on sale of securities and
    $58,000 in net gains from sale of loans for the three months ended September
    30, 1999 when compared to the same period in 1998.

    Noninterest Expenses. Noninterest expenses increased $343,000 over the three
    month period from the previous year, primarily due to increases in salaries
    and employee benefits of $136,000, occupancy expense of $51,000 and
    professional fees of $64,000 relating to the overall growth of the Company.

    Provision for Income Taxes. The income tax provision for the three months
    ended September 30, 1999 was $154,000 (an effective rate of 37.0%) compared
    to $65,000 (an effective rate of 37.8%) for the comparable 1998 period.

         Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 1999 and 1998


Results of Operations:
    General. Net earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 were
    $895,000 or $.40 basic and diluted earnings per share compared to net
    earnings of $720,000 or $.41 basic earnings per share ($.40 diluted earnings
    per share) for the nine months ended September 30, 1998. This increase in
    the Company's net earnings was primarily due to an increase in net interest
    income, partially offset by an increase in noninterest expenses.

    Interest Income and Expense. Interest income increased by $1.4 million or
    14.0% from $9.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 to
    $11.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1999. Interest income
    on loans increased $1.4 million, or 17.6% primarily due to an increase in
    the average loan portfolio balance of $27.6 million from $114.2 million for
    the nine months ended September 30, 1998 to $141.8 million for the
    comparable period in 1999, partially offset by a decrease in the average
    yield from 9.06% in 1998 to 8.58% in 1999.

    Interest expense on deposits decreased $422,000, or 9.7% from $4.4 million
    for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 to $3.9 million for the nine
    months ended September 30, 1999. Interest expense on deposits decreased due
    to a decrease in the weighted average rate paid from 4.96% in 1998 to 4.34%
    in 1999, partially offset by an increase in the average balance, from $117.3
    million in 1998 to $121.0 million in 1999.

    Interest expense on borrowings increased $621,000 to $1.1 million for the
    nine months ended September 30, 1999 from $481,000 for the nine months ended
    September 30, 1998. Interest expense on borrowings increased due to a
    increase in the average balance from $12.0 million during 1998 to $29.3
    million during 1999, partially offset by a decrease in the weighted-average
    rate paid from 5.34% for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 to 5.02%
    for the same period in 1999.

    Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses is charged to
    earnings to bring the total allowance to a level deemed appropriate by
    management and is based upon historical experience, the volume and type of
    lending conducted by the Company, industry standards, the amount of
    nonperforming loans, general economic conditions, particularly as they
    relate to the Company's market areas, and other factors related to the
    collectibility of the Company's loan portfolio. The provision decreased from
    $795,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 to $475,000 for the
    nine months ended September 30, 1999. The decrease was due to net
    charge-offs of $256,000 in 1999 compared to $482,000 over the same period in
    1998. The increase in net charge-offs in 1998 related to one loan of which
    $440,000 was charged-off. Management believes the balance in the allowance
    for loan losses of $1.3 million at September 30, 1999 is adequate.

    Noninterest Income. Noninterest income decreased $332,000 primarily due to
    decreases of $126,000 on net realized gains on sales of securities and
    $126,000 in net gains from sale of loans during the nine months ended
    September 30, 1999 when compared to the comparable period in 1998.

    Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased $862,000 for the nine
    months ended September 30, 1999 compared to the same period in 1998
    primarily due to increases of $330,000 in salaries and employee benefits,
    occupancy expense of $98,000, professional fees of $139,000 and other
    noninterest expense of $214,000 relating to the overall growth of the
    Company.

    Provision for Income Taxes. The income tax provision for the nine months
    ended September 30, 1999 was $526,000 (an effective rate of 37.0%) compared
    to $416,000 (an effective rate of 36.6%) for the comparable 1998 period.

                                Year 2000 Issues



    Management of the Holding Company is acutely aware of the Year 2000 issue
    and has an ongoing program designed to ensure that its operational and
    financial systems, and those of its commercial bank subsidiary, will not be
    adversely affected by Year 2000 software failures, due to processing errors
    arising from calculations using the Year 2000 date. The Bank's Data
    Processing Steering Committee has been assigned the Year 2000 compliance
    issue. The Committee meets quarterly or as needed to assess the extent to
    which the Bank and its outside vendors may be adversely affected by the Year
    2000 problem system failures. The Committee has prepared and is responsible
    for monitoring the Vendor Status Report which identifies the vendors and
    equipment that have been determined to be Year 2000 sensitive. As of
    September 30, 1999, the Bank had received written assurances from all of the
    materially significant companies listed on the Vendor Status Report
    indicating that their systems are Year 2000 compliant.

    Based on current estimates, the Bank does not expect to incur a material
    amount of expenses through December 31, 1999 on its program to redevelop,
    replace or repair its computer applications to make them "Year 2000
    compliant." It is recognized that any Year 2000 compliance failures could
    result in additional expense to the Bank.

    While management is diligently working to assure Year 2000 compliance,
    compliance by the Bank is largely dependent upon compliance by vendors,
    primarily in the area of on-line data processing. Management is requiring
    its computer system and software vendors to represent that the products are,
    or will be, Year 2000 compliant, and has planned a program for testing for
    compliance.

    The most significant vendor to the Bank, which provides the software support
    for the in-house system, Information Technology, Inc., has completed their
    testing process. The Bank has and will continue to participate in the
    testing and verification of Year 2000 related changes made by that vendor.

    Although management believes that the Bank's system will be Year 2000
    compliant, a written contingency plan has been developed to address problems
    that might be caused from Year 2000 system failures.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates.
The Company's market risk arises primarily from interest-rate risk inherent in
its lending and deposit taking activities. The Company has little or no risk
related to trading accounts, commodities or foreign exchange.

Management actively monitors and manages its interest-rate risk exposure. The
primary objective in managing interest-rate risk is to limit, within established
guidelines, the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on the Company's net
interest income and capital, while adjusting the Company's asset-liability
structure to obtain the maximum yield-cost spread on that structure. Management
relies primarily on its asset-liability structure to control interest rate risk.
However, a sudden and substantial increase in interest rates could adversely
impact the Company's earnings, to the extent that the interest rates borne by
assets and liabilities do not change at the same speed, to the same extent, or
on the same basis. There have been no significant changes in the Company's
market risk exposure since December 31, 1998.
