FFVA FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997 and 1996

(1)  Principles of Consolidation

The  accompanying   unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements  include  the
accounts of FFVA  Financial  Corporation  ("the  Company")  and its wholly owned
subsidiary,  First Federal Savings Bank of Lynchburg ("the Bank"). The Company's
business is conducted  principally  through the Bank. All material  intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

(2)  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial statements were prepared in
accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and do not include information or
footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial condition,  results
of operations and cash flows in conformity  with generally  accepted  accounting
principles.  These  statements  should be read in  conjunction  with the audited
consolidated  financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December
31,  1996 of FFVA  Financial  Corporation.  In the  opinion of  management,  all
adjustments  (consisting only of normal recurring  adjustments)  necessary for a
fair presentation of the consolidated  financial  statements have been included.
The results of  operations  and other data for the three and nine month  periods
ended September 30, 1997 are not necessarily  indicative of the results that may
be expected for the entire fiscal year ended December 31, 1997.

(3)  Stock Benefit and Option Plans

The Company has in place a Management and Director Stock Bonus Plan (MSBP) under
which common stock has been awarded,  subject to plan vesting  requirements,  to
directors and personnel in key  positions of  responsibility.  A total of 49,008
shares were distributed on April 29, 1997 and 146,992 shares remain allocated to
directors  and  personnel  at  September  30, 1997 with  distribution  scheduled
annually until April 27, 2000. As of September 30, 1997, the Company held 89,996
shares at an average purchase price of $14.23 for future distribution.  The cost
of  the  89,996  shares  held  has  been  accounted  for as a  reduction  of the
stockholders' equity in the consolidated balance sheet.

The Company also established a stock option plan which provided for the grant to
directors and personnel in key positions of  responsibility  630,366  options to
purchase  common stock at a price of $12.50 per share (the  adjusted fair market
price of the stock on the date of  approval).  The options vest over a five year
period,  with the first options having vested on April 27, 1996. As of September
30, 1997 there were 238,633 vested options outstanding.

The Bank  also has an  Employee  Stock  Ownership  Plan  ("ESOP")  for  eligible
employees.  The Company  funded a loan for the purchase of ESOP shares and there
are currently 200,000 shares of unallocated stock securing the loan. The Company
accounts  for  its  ESOP  in  accordance   with   Statement  of  Position  93-6.
Accordingly, the shares pledged as collateral are reported as a reduction of the
stockholder's equity in the consolidated balance sheet.

(4)  Stock Repurchase and Retirement

During the first quarter of 1997, the Company  repurchased  and retired  172,000
shares of common stock at an average  price of $23.19 per share.  As a result of
the repurchase, common stock was reduced $17,000, additional paid-in capital was
reduced $1.6 million and retained  earnings were reduced $2.3 million to reflect
the  retirement of the shares.  The company did not repurchase any shares during
the quarters ended June 30, 1997 and September 30, 1997.

(5)  Earnings per Share

Earnings  per share of common stock for the three and nine month  periods  ended
September  30, 1997 and 1996 has been  determined by dividing the net income for
the periods by the calculated  weighted average number of shares of common stock
and common  stock  equivalents  outstanding.  In  accordance  with  Statement of
Position 93-6,  shares controlled by the ESOP are not considered in the weighted
average  number of  shares  outstanding  until  the  shares  are  committed  for
allocation to an employee's individual account.

(6)  Commitments and Contingencies

At September  30, 1997,  the Company had  outstanding  commitments  to originate
mortgage loans of $5.6 million. Unused consumer,  equity and commercial lines of
credit  available to customers  were $21.5  million at September  30, 1997.  The
undisbursed portion of construction loans totalled $2.8 million at September 30,
1997 and the Company  had  outstanding  commitments  to  purchase  $1.5  million
investment securities. In addition, the Bank is also party to interest rate swap
agreements with a regional bank totalling $15.0 million.

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

Changes in Financial Condition
- ------------------------------

Total assets of the Company  increased by $33.5 million,  or 6.28%,  from $533.8
million at December  31,  1996 to $567.3  million at  September  30,  1997.  The
increase in total assets  during the first nine months of 1997 was due primarily
to the purchase of mortgage-backed and investment  securities and an increase in
the balance of net loans receivable.

Cash and cash equivalents  increased by $2.7 million, or 40.91%, to $9.3 million
at September 30, 1997.  Investment  securities  increased by $23.4  million,  or
38.24%,  to $84.6 million at September  30, 1997.  At September 30, 1997,  $48.9
million  of  the  Company's  investment  securities  (which  include  restricted
securities totalling $3.6 million) were classified as held to maturity and $35.7
million  of  investment  securities  were  classified  as  available  for  sale.
Mortgage-backed  securities  increased  by $1.8  million,  or  1.37%,  to $133.3
million at September  30,  1997.  At September  30, 1997,  $63.3  million of the
Company's  mortgage-backed  securities were classified as held to maturity,  and
$70.0 million of  mortgage-backed  securities  were  classified as available for
sale.

Loans receivable, net, increased by $5.1 million, or 1.59%, to $326.6 million at
September  30, 1997 compared to $321.5  million at December 31, 1996.  While the
outstanding  balance of  mortgage  loans  decreased  slightly,  the  outstanding
balance of non-mortgage loans increased by approximately $7.8 million during the
nine month period.

Deposits  increased by $16.5 million,  or 4.15%, from $397.4 million at December
31, 1996 to $413.9 million at September 30, 1997.

FHLB Advances and Other Borrowed Money increased by $14.0 million, or 23.33%, to
$74.0 million at September  30, 1997,  compared to $60.0 million at December 31,
1996. During the period, the Company increased its net outstanding FHLB Advances
by $28.0 million.  Short term outstanding  reverse repurchase  agreements with a
regional  bank have been  reduced  to $5.0  million  at  September  30,  1997 as
compared  to $19.0  million at  December  31,  1996.  Funds from the  additional
borrowings  were used to fund the  purchase  of mortgage  backed and  investment
securities and to fund the growth of the company's loan portfolio.

Equity increased by $1.0 million,  or 1.34%,  from $74.5 million at December 31,
1996 to $75.5 million at September 30, 1997.  The Company  recognized net income
for the nine month period of $5.9 million and an increase in the market value of
assets available for sale, net of taxes, of $344,000.  Equity was also increased
due to the allocation of MSBP plan shares.  Equity was decreased $4.0 million as
a result of the  repurchase  and  retirement of 172,000  shares of common stock.
Equity was also  decreased  $1.5  million as the result of the Company  paying a
$.10 per  share  dividend  for the  first  quarter  of 1997 and a $.12 per share
dividend for the second and third quarters of 1997.


Comparison  of Results of  Operation  for the Three Months and Nine Months ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Net Income

The  Company  reported  net income of $2.1  million and  $358,000  for the three
months ended  September  30, 1997 and 1996,  respectively,  and $5.9 million and
$3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 respectively.
The $1.7 million increase in net income for the three months ended September 30,
1997 compared to the three months ended  September 30, 1996 was due primarily to
a $2.3 million  decrease in noninterest  expense.  The company also recognized a
$278,000 increase in noninterest  income and a $139,000 increase in net interest
income.  These were  partially  offset by a $1.0 million  increase in income tax
expense. The $2.3 million decrease in noninterest expense can be almost entirely
attributed  to a $2.2  million  charge by the FDIC to  recapitalize  the Savings
Association  Insurance Fund ("SAIF") incurred during the quarter ended September
30, 1996.

                                       10



<PAGE>



Net income for the nine month  period  ended  September  30, 1997  reflected  an
increase of $2.2  million,  or 59.45% from the net income  reported for the same
period in 1996.  The increase can be  attributed  to a $2.5 million  decrease in
noninterest  expense,  primarily  attributable to the $2.2 million charge by the
FDIC to recapitalize the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") recorded in
the quarter ending  September 30, 1996.  The company also  recognized a $700,000
increase in net interest income and a $388,000  increase in noninterest  income.
These were partially offset by a $1.4 million increase in income tax expense.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income  increased by $139,000,  or 2.75%, in the three months ended
September  30, 1997 to $5.2 million  compared to $5.0 million in the same period
in 1996.  Net  interest  income  increased by $700,000 for the nine month period
ended  September 30, 1997 when compared to the nine month period ended September
30, 1996 from $14.8 million to $15.5 million. The Company's interest rate spread
and net interest margin were 3.30% and 3.83%, and 3.34% and 3.86%, respectively,
during the three and nine month periods ended  September 30, 1997. This compares
to an interest rate spread and net interest margin of 3.37% and 3.98%, and 3.28%
and 3.94%,  respectively,  for the three and nine month periods ended  September
30, 1996.

Provision for Credit Losses

Based on managements'  evaluation of the loan portfolio,  the Company recorded a
provision  for  credit  losses  of  $60,000  for the nine  month  period  ending
September  30, 1996.  No provision for credit loss was recorded for the three or
nine month period ended  September  30, 1997 or for the three month period ended
September  30, 1996.  The  allowance  for credit  losses at  September  30, 1997
totaled $3.2 million or .97% of gross loans receivable.

NonInterest Income

Noninterest income increased $278,000 for the three month period ended September
30,  1997 to $549,000  from  $271,000  for the  comparable  period in 1996.  The
increase in  noninterest  income was  primarily  attributable  to an increase of
$169,000 in the gain on sale of investments  category and an increase of $75,000
in other income. Noninterest income increased $388,000 for the nine month period
ended  September 30, 1997 to $1.3 million from $894,000 for the comparable  1996
period. For the nine month period ended September 30, 1997, the bank recorded an
increase of $201,000 in the gain on sale of investments category and an increase
of $151,000 in other income over the amounts recorded for the nine month periods
ended  September  30,  1996.  For both the three and nine  month  periods  ended
September 30, 1997, the company recorded  moderate  increases in service charges
and fees on loans.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest  expense  decreased  $2.3  million,  or 47.92%,  for the three month
period  ending  September  30, 1997  compared to the three  month  period  ended
September  30,  1996 from $4.8  million  to $2.5  million.  Noninterest  expense
decreased $2.5 million, or 25.00%, for the nine month period ended September 30,
1997 as compared to the nine month  period ended  September  30, 1996 from $10.0
million to $7.5 million.  Both the three and nine month periods ended  September
30, 1996 reflect the special assessment of $2.2 million for Federal Insurance of
Accounts to recapitalize the Savings  Association  Insurance Fund ("SAIF").  The
recapitalization  also resulted in lower ongoing premiums for 1997 when compared
to prior  periods.  The expense  recognized  for federal  insurance  of accounts
totalled  $61,000  and  $182,000  for the three  and nine  month  periods  ended
September  30,  1997 as  compared to ongoing  premium   expense  of $206,000 and
$613,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996.

For the three month period  ending  September 30, 1997,  compensation  and other
personnel  costs  increased  $97,000,  or 6.52%,  and for the nine month  period
ending  September 30, 1997  compensation  and other  personnel  costs  increased
$246,000,  or 5.54%,  over the comparable prior periods.  For the three and nine
month period ending September 30, 1997,  office occupancy and equipment  expense
increased  $24,000  or  9.88%  and  $67,000  or  9.20%,  respectively,  over the
comparable prior periods.

Income Tax Expense

The company  recognized  income tax expense of $1.2 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1997 compared to $206,000 for the comparable period in 1996.
For the nine months ended  September 30, 1997 and 1996,  the Company  recognized
income  tax  expense  of $3.4  million  and  $2.0  million,  respectively.  Such
increases in income tax expenses  during the three and nine month  periods ended
September  30, 1997  reflect the  increase in income  during the 1997 periods as
compared to the 1996 periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

The Bank's  liquidity is a product of its  operating,  investing  and  financing
activities.  The  Bank's  primary  sources  of funds are  deposits,  borrowings,
amortization,    prepayments   and   maturities   of   outstanding   loans   and
mortgage-backed  securities,  maturities  of  investment  securities  and  funds
provided from  operations.  While  scheduled  payments from the  amortization of
loans and  mortgage-backed  securities  and maturing  investment  securities are
relatively  predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are
greatly   influenced  by  general  interest  rates,   economic   conditions  and
competition. In addition, the Bank invests excess funds in overnight deposits to
fund cash  requirements  experienced in the normal course of business.  The Bank
has been able to  generate  sufficient  cash  through  its  deposits  as well as
borrowings  (consisting  primarily  of  advances  from the FHLB of  Atlanta  and
reverse repurchase agreements with other banks). At September 30, 1997, the Bank
had $69.0  million of  outstanding  advances  from the FHLB of Atlanta  and $5.0
million of reverse repurchase agreements with other banks.

Liquidity  management  is  both a  daily  and  long-term  function  of  business
management.  Excess cash is  generally  invested  in  overnight  deposits.  On a
longer-term  basis,  the Bank  maintains  a strategy  of  purchasing  investment
securities  and  mortgage-backed  securities.  The Bank  attempts  to ladder the
maturities  of  its  investment  portfolio  to  provide  an  ongoing  source  of
liquidity.  The Bank uses its  sources of funds  primarily  to meet its  ongoing
commitments, to pay maturing savings certificates and savings withdrawals,  fund
loan  commitments  and maintain a portfolio of  mortgage-backed  and  investment
securities.   At  September  30,  1997,  the  total  approved  loan  commitments
outstanding amounted to $5.6 million. At the same date, commitments under unused
lines of credit and undisbursed loans in process amounted to $24.3 million.  The
Company had also  committed  to purchase  $1.5  million  investment  securities.
Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at September 30,
1997 totaled $173.4 million.  Management  believes that a significant portion of
maturing  deposits will remain with the Bank. The Bank had an average  liquidity
ratio of 12.83% during the quarter ended September 30, 1997,  which exceeded the
required minimum liquid asset ratio of 5.0%.

At September 30, 1997, the Bank had regulatory  capital which was well in excess
of applicable  limits.  At September 30, 1997, the Bank was required to maintain
tangible  capital of 1.5% of  adjusted  total  assets,  core  capital of 3.0% of
adjusted total assets, and risk-based capital of 8.0% of adjusted  risk-weighted
assets. At September 30, 1997, the Bank's tangible capital was $58.5 million, or
10.35% of adjusted total assets,  core capital was $58.5  million,  or 10.35% of
adjusted  total assets and risk-based  capital was $61.7  million,  or 20.94% of
adjusted  risk-weighted  assets,  exceeding the  requirements  by $50.0 million,
$41.5 million, and $38.1 million, respectively.

Average Balance Sheet

The  following  table sets forth  certain  information  relating  to the Savings
Bank's  statements of financial  condition and the  statements of income for the
three and nine month periods ended  September 30, 1997 and 1996 and reflects the
average  yield  on  assets  and  average  cost of  liabilities  for the  periods
indicated.  Such yields and costs are  derived by dividing  income or expense by
the average  balance of assets and  liabilities,  respectively,  for the periods
shown. Average balances are derived from month end balances. Management does not
believe that the use of month end balances instead of average daily balances has
caused  any  material  difference  in the  information  presented.  The  average
balances  of  loans  receivable  include  loans on which  the  Savings  Bank has
discontinued  accruing  interest.  The yields and costs  include  fees which are
considered   adjustments  to  yields.   Market  value  adjustments  recorded  in
compliance  with SFAS 115 are not  considered  when  computing  the  yields  and
average balances of securities.
