                               SEPTEMBER 30, 1996


NOTE A - 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-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X.  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, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included.  Operating results for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 are subject to year-end audit and are not necessarily
indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1996.  For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Form 10-K, Annual Report
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, for the year ended December 31,
1995.


NOTE B - COMMITMENT AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company's subsidiary banks make loan commitments and incur contingent
liabilities in the normal course of business which are not reflected in the
consolidated statements of condition.


NOTE C - RECENTLY ISSUED PRONOUNCEMENTS

In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.  121 "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of,"
("Statement 121") which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived
assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the
undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than
the assets' carrying amount.  Statement 121 also addresses the accounting for
long-lived assets that are expected to be disposed of.  The Company adopted
Statement 121 effective January 1, 1996.  The adoption of Statement 121 did not
have a material effect on the Company's unaudited consolidated financial
statements.

In May 1995, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
122 "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights, an Amendment of FASB No. 65,"
("Statement 122").  Statement 122 requires companies that originate mortgage
loans to capitalize the cost of mortgage servicing rights separate from the
cost of originating the loan when a definitive plan to sell those loans and
retain the mortgage servicing rights exist.  Prior to the adoption of Statement
122 only mortgage servicing rights that are purchased from other parties are
capitalized and recorded as an asset.  Therefore, Statement 122 eliminates the
accounting inconsistencies that existed between mortgage servicing rights that
are derived from loan origination activities and those acquired through
purchase transactions.  Statement 122 also requires that capitalized mortgage
servicing rights be assessed for impairment based on the fair value of those
rights.  The Company adopted Statement 122 effective January 1, 1996, with no
material effect on the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements.

NOTE D-MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

On December 29, 1995, Alabama National BanCorporation ("ANB") merged ("the
Merger") with National Commerce Corporation ("NCC") and Commerce Bankshares,
Inc. ("CBS") (collectively the "Company"). The Merger was accomplished by
converting each share of NCC stock into 348.14 shares of ANB stock and each
share of CBS stock into 7.0435 shares of ANB stock for a total of 3,106,981
shares (or 50.1%) of the Company stock.  The Merger was accounted for as a
"reverse acquisition," whereby NCC is deemed to have acquired ANB for financial
reporting purposes.  However, ANB remains the continuing legal entity and
registrant for Securities and Exchange Commission filing purposes.  Consistent
with the reverse acquisition accounting treatment, the historical financial
statements of the Company presented for the three months and the nine months
ended September 30, 1995 are actually only the consolidated financial
statements of NCC and differ from the consolidated financial statements of ANB
as previously reported.  The operations of ANB are included in the financial
statements from the date of the Merger.  The historical stockholders' equity of
NCC prior to the Merger is retroactively restated for the equivalent number of
shares received in the Merger after giving effect to any difference in par
value of ANB's and NCC stock by an offset to paid-in capital.

The purchase price, determined by the ANB common stock average closing price
for the month of March 1995, prior to the announcement of the Merger plus
direct acquisition costs, was allocated to the ANB assets and liabilities
acquired based on their fair market value at the date of acquisition.  The
excess of the purchase price over the fair market value of net assets acquired
is being amortized on a straight line basis over twenty five years.  The ANB
assets purchased and liabilities assumed (at fair market values) as of December
29, 1995 were as follows (in thousands):

CBS was formed on April 4, 1995 to succeed as owner of all the interest of
National Bank of Commerce of Birmingham ("NBC"), a consolidated subsidiary of
NCC.  CBS, a bank and thrift holding company, was formed primarily to
accomplish the acquisition of Talladega Federal Savings and Loan Association
(TFSLA).  On July 20, 1995, CBS issued 600,125 shares of its common stock to
NCC and 95,126 shares of its common stock to the individual stockholders of NBC
in exchange for all the common stock of NBC and became a consolidated
subsidiary of NCC.  Also, on August 1, 1995, CBS acquired all of the stock of
TFSLA for $1,703,000 in cash.  This acquisition was accounted for under the
purchase method; accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets
and liabilities based on their values.  No goodwill was recorded.

At the date of acquisition, TFSLA had assets of $34,982,000 and equity of
$1,813,000.  The results of operations of TFSLA are included in NCC's results
of operations beginning August 1, 1995.  TFSLA was merged with Citizens Bank of
Talladega, another subsidiary of the Company on December 29, 1995.

The TFSLA assets purchased and liabilities assumed as of August 1, 1995 were as

NOTE D - MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS (CONTINUED)

On September 30, 1996, FirstBank Holding Company, Inc. ("FIRSTBANC"), a one
bank holding company headquartered in Robertsdale, Alabama, was merged into the
Company.  The Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of FIRSTBANC
in exchange for 305,000 shares of the Company's common stock.  At the merger
date, FIRSTBANC had approximately $36 million in total assets, year-to-date net
interest income of approximately $1.2 million and year-to-date net income of
approximately $325,000.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company give effect to the
FIRSTBANC merger, which was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests and,
accordingly, financial statements for all periods have been restated to reflect
the results of operations of the companies on a combined basis from the
earliest period presented, except for dividends per share.

The Company's consolidated financial data for the three months and nine months
ended September 30, 1995 have been restated as follows:

                 ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The following is a discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial
condition of the Company at September 30, 1996, and the results of its
operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 and
1995.  On December 29, 1995, Alabama National BanCorporation ("ANB") merged
("the Merger") with National Commerce Corporation ("NCC") and Commerce
Bankshares, Inc. ("CBS") (collectively the "Company").  The Merger was
accomplished, among other things, by converting each share of NCC stock into
348.14 shares of ANB stock and each share of CBS stock into 7.0435 shares of
ANB stock for a total of 3,106,981 shares (or 50.1%) of the Company stock.  The
Merger was accounted for as a "reverse acquisition," whereby NCC is deemed to
have acquired ANB for financial reporting purposes.  However, ANB remains the
continuing legal entity and registrant for Securities and Exchange Commission
filing purposes.  Consistent with the reverse acquisition accounting treatment,
the historical financial statements of the Company presented for the three and
nine month periods ended September 30, 1995, are the consolidated financial
statements of NCC and differ from the consolidated financial statements of ANB
previously reported.  The results of operations of ANB are included in the
financial statements from the date of the Merger.  (See Note D to the Company's
unaudited consolidated financial statements.)

On September 30, 1996, FirstBanc Holding Company, Inc. ("FIRSTBANC") was merged
into the Company with each share of FIRSTBANC stock being converted into
7.12917 shares of ANB stock.  The FIRSTBANC merger was accounted for as a
pooling- of-interests.  Accordingly, financial statements for all periods have
been restated to reflect the results of operations of the combined companies
from the earliest period presented, except for dividends per share.  (See Note
D to the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements.)

This information should be read in conjunction with the Company's unaudited
consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this
report and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations appearing in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1995.

PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW

The Company's net income was $2.585 million for the third quarter of 1996 (the
"1996 Quarter") compared to $1.019 million for the third quarter of 1995 (the
"1995 quarter").  Net income for the nine month period ended September 30, 1996
(the "1996 nine months") was $6.942 million compared to $3.704 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1995 (the "1995 nine months").  Net income per
common share for the 1996 and 1995 quarters was $.39 and $.15, respectively.
For the 1996 nine months, net income per common share was $1.04 compared to
$1.05 for the 1995 nine months.  The Company has approximately 3.8 million more
common shares outstanding for the 1996 quarter and nine months as a result of
the Merger.

During the 1996 quarter, the Company absorbed an after tax charge of
approximately $420,000 ($.06 per common share) as the result of final Savings
Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") legislation enacted on September 30, 1996.
The Company realized $126,000 ($.02 per common share) in income in the 1996
quarter from resolution of a matter involving a letter of credit.

The principal reason for the increase in net income for the 1996 quarter and
the 1996 nine months is the Merger.  The improvement in 1996 net earnings
through September 30 is attributable to an increased interest margin and
increased noninterest income, a reduced minority interest in the earnings of
consolidated subsidiaries, less increased noninterest expenses and income
taxes.

The return on average assets for the Company was 1.12% for the 1996 nine months
compared to 1.09% for the 1995 nine months.  The return on average
stockholders' equity  decreased for the 1996 nine months to 15.01%, as compared
to 17.97% for the 1995 nine months.  Book value per share at September 30, 1996
was $9.73, an increase of $.79 from year end 1995.  Tangible book value per
share at September 30, 1996 was $8.60, an increase of $.83 from year end 1995.
The Company declared  $.19 in cash dividends on common shares in the 1996 nine
months.

NET INCOME

The largest component of the Company's net income is its net interest income,
which is the difference between the income earned on assets and the interest
paid on deposits and borrowings used to support such assets.  As a result of
the Merger, average earning assets for the 1996 nine months increased by
approximately $286.0 million and average interest- bearing liabilities
increased by approximately $255.2 million.  The Company's net interest income
benefited from the faster growth of average earning assets than average
interest-bearing liabilities.  The average taxable equivalent rates earned on
assets were 8.59% for the 1996 nine months, compared to 8.65% for the 1995 nine
months.  The average rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities were 4.67% for
the 1996 nine months compared to 5.09% for the 1995 nine months.  The net
interest margin for the 1996 nine months was 4.52% compared to 4.29% for the
1995 nine months.

Net revenue from earning assets during the 1996 nine months increased $12.1
million or 87.9%, over the corresponding period in 1995.  Approximately 93% of
this increase came from volume.

The provision for loan losses represents a charge to current earnings necessary
to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an appropriate level based on
management's analysis of the potential risk in the loan portfolio.  The amount
of the provision is a function of the level of loans outstanding, the level of
non-performing loans, historical loan loss experience, the amount of loan
losses actually charged against the allowance during a given period and current
and anticipated economic conditions.  No provision was made for the 1996
quarter, compared to a $202,000 provision during the 1995 quarter.  Recoveries
exceeded charge-offs by $159,000 for the 1996 quarter compared to net
charge-offs of $189,000 for the same period of 1995.  The provision for loan
losses was $209,000 for the 1996 nine months, compared to $210,000 for the 1995
nine months.  Recoveries exceeded charge-offs by $127,000 for the 1996 nine
months, compared to net charge-offs of $221,000 for the 1995 nine months.  The
allowance for loan losses as a percentage of outstanding loans, net of unearned
income was 1.57% at September 30, 1996, compared to 1.61% at December 31, 1995.
Because of the inherent uncertainty of assumptions made during the assessment
process, there can be no assurance that loan losses in future periods will not
exceed the allowance for loan losses or that additional allocations to the
allowance will not be required.  See Asset Quality.

Noninterest income for the 1996 quarter was $3.9 million, compared to $2.3
million for the 1995 quarter.  For the 1996 nine months noninterest income
increased to $12.0 million, compared to $4.7 million for the 1995 nine months.
Gain on the sale of assets and deposits of $343,000 during the 1996 nine months
resulted from the sale of a branch and the deposits at that branch of $274,000,
the sale of other real estate of $28,000 and the sale of loans and
miscellaneous assets of $41,000.  Service charges on deposits for the 1996
quarter were $935,000, compared with $428,000 for the 1995 quarter.  For the
1996 nine months, service charges were $2.8 million, compared with $1.3 million
for the 1995 nine months.  For both 1996 periods, substantially all of the
increase came from the banks acquired in the Merger.  Continued increased
activity in the investment services division resulted in a $489,000 increase in
the 1996 quarter over the same period in 1995 and a $4.0 million increase in
the 1996 nine months, when compared to the 1995 nine months.  Management
anticipates this increased activity to continue, but is unable to predict the
impact on the future results of operations.  A slowdown was experienced in the
1996 quarter.  Trust fees increased $80,000 in the 1996 quarter compared to the
1995 quarter and increased $214,000 for the 1996 nine months, when compared
with the 1995 nine months.  Other noninterest income increased $492,000 in the
1996 quarter when compared to the 1995 quarter and increased $1.2 million for
the 1996 nine months when compared with the 1995 nine months.  $258,000 of this
increase in the 1996 quarter and $523,000 of this increase in the 1996 nine
months came from banks acquired in the Merger.  Miscellaneous charges by NBC
Securities, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, accounted for $283,000 of the
increase for the 1996 quarter and $469,000 of the increase for the 1996 nine
months.  The 1996 nine months includes an $80,000 recovery from a settlement
with a third-party financial institution.

Noninterest expense was $9.2 million for the 1996 quarter, compared to $5.5
million for the 1995 quarter.  For the 1996 nine months, noninterest expense
was $27.3 million, a $13.8 million increase over the 1995 nine months.
Salaries and employee benefits increased to $4.8 million for the 1996 quarter,
compared to $3.1 million for the 1995 quarter.  For the 1996 nine months,
salaries and employee benefits increased to $15.9 million from $7.6 million in
the 1995 nine months.  The increase in the 1996 quarter were principally the
result of $1.3 million in salaries and employee benefits of the banks acquired
in the Merger and increased salaries and employee benefits of the investment
services division of approximately $418,000. The increase in salaries and
employee benefits for the 1996 nine months were principally the result of $5.2
million in salaries and employee benefits of the banks acquired in the Merger,
including $947,000 in charges connected with the settlement of employment
contracts of the former chairman and CEO of the Company and one of the
subsidiary bank presidents, and increased salaries and employee benefits of the
investment services division of $2.8 million.  Occupancy and equipment expense
increased to $1.2 million in the 1996 quarter, compared to $799,000 in the 1995
quarter.  Approximately $444,000 of this increase came from the banks acquired
in the Merger.  For the 1996 nine months, occupancy and equipment expenses
increased to $3.3 million compared to $2.0 million for the same period on 1995.
Substantially all of this increase came from banks acquired in the Merger.
Other noninterest expense increased to $3.2 million in the 1996 quarter,
compared to $1.6 million in the 1995 quarter.  Approximately $1.8 million of
this increase, including the SAIF assessment of $677,000, came from banks
acquired in the Merger.  Other noninterest expense increased to $8.1million in
the 1996 nine months, compared to $4.0 million in the 1995 nine months.
Substantially all of this increase came from the banks acquired in the Merger
(including the SAIF assessment and a $375,000  charge for the settlement of the
employee contracts with the former chairman and CEO of the Company.

Income tax expense was $897,000 for the 1996 quarter compared to $132,000 for
the 1995 quarter.  For the 1996 nine months, income tax expense was $3.3
million, compared to $333,000 for the 1995 nine months.  The principal reason
for these increases was NCC's utilization of its loss carryforwards and credit
carry forwards in the year ended December 31, 1995.  The effective tax rates
the 1996 quarter and the 1996 nine months were 25.7% and 32.1%, respectively.

EARNING ASSETS

Loans comprised the largest single category of the Company's earning assets on
September 30, 1996.  Loans, net of unearned income were $588.7 million or 70.0%
of total assets at September 30, 1996, compared to $553.1 million or 65.9% at
December 31, 1995.  Loans grew $35.6 million or 6.4% during the 1996 nine
months.

Purchases of available for sale securities totaled $34.8 million and sales,
maturities and calls of available for sale securities totaled $51.3 million.

Overall investment securities and securities available for sale decreased $2.5
million during the 1996 nine months.  Trading accounts securities decreased
$2.5 million during the 1996 nine months.  The trading account securities are
securities owned by the Company prior to delivery to the Company's customers.

its exposure to market and interest rate changes .  Federal funds sold and
securities purchased under agreements to resell totaled $21.9 million at
September 30, 1996 compared to $37.9 million at December 31, 1995, a decrease
of $16.0 million.  Interest-bearing deposits in other banks at September 30,
1996 were $239,000 compared to $11.2 million at December 31, 1995.
Approximately $8.5 million of this reduction in interest- bearing deposits at
other banks was used to fund the sale of deposits by a subsidiary bank.

DEPOSITS AND OTHER FUNDING SOURCES

Deposits decreased $8.3 million from year-end 1995, to $668.2 million at
September 30, 1996.  One of the subsidiary banks sold a branch and its
deposits, which totaled $8.5 million.  Additionally, one customer used escrow
funds at another subsidiary bank totaling $9.4 million.  Excluding these two
transactions, deposits grew approximately $9.6 million.

Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase
totaled $51.3 million at September 30, 1996 an decrease of $7.6 million from
December 31, 1995.  The Treasury tax and loan account increased to $6.2 million
at September 30, 1996, compared with $2.4 million at December 31, 1995.
Short-term borrowings at September 30, 1996 totaled $41.4 million and consisted
of $18.4 million in borrowings by the Company from an independent bank and
$23.0 million in borrowings by  subsidiary banks from the Federal Home Loan
Bank.

The Company's only long-term debt at September 30, 1996 was capital lease
obligations which decreased $17,000 during the 1996 nine months.

ASSET QUALITY

Nonperforming loans are comprised of loans past due 90 days or more and still
accruing interest, loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis and loans in which
the terms have been restructured to provide a reduction or deferral of interest
or principal because of a deterioration in the financial position of the
borrower.  Accrual of interest is discontinued on a loan when management
believes, after considering economic and business conditions and collection
efforts, that the borrower's financial condition is such that the collection of
interest is doubtful.  A delinquent loan is generally placed on nonaccrual
status when it becomes 90 days or more past due.  When a loan is placed on
nonaccrual status, all interest which has been accrued on the loan but remains
unpaid is reversed and deducted from earnings as a reduction of reported
interest income.  No additional interest is accrued on the loan balance until
the collection of both principal and interest becomes reasonably certain.  When
a problem loan is finally resolved, there may ultimately be an actual writedown
or charge-off of the principal balance of the loan which would necessitate
additional charges to earnings.

The loan portfolio is periodically reviewed to evaluate the outstanding loans
and to measure both the performance of the portfolio and the adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses.  This analysis includes a review of delinquency
trends, actual losses and internal credit ratings.  Based on this analysis,
management considers the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1996 to be
adequate to cover possible loan losses in the portfolio as of that date.
However, because of the inherent uncertainty of assumptions made during the
evaluation process, there can be no assurance that loan losses in future
periods will not exceed the allowance for loan losses or that additional
allocations to the allowance will not be required.

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

The Company monitors and manages the pricing and maturity of its assets and
liabilities in order to diminish the potential adverse impact that changes in
interest rates could have on its net interest income.  The principal monitoring
technique employed by the Company is the measurement of the interest
sensitivity "gap," which is the positive or negative dollar difference between
assets and liabilities that are subject to interest rate repricing within a
given period of time.  Interest rate sensitivity can be managed by repricing
assets and liabilities, selling securities available for sale, replacing an
asset or liability at maturity or by adjusting the interest rate during the
life of an asset or liability.  Managing the amount of assets and liabilities
repricing in this same time interval helps to hedge the risk and minimize the
impact of rising or falling interest rates on net interest income.

The Company evaluates interest sensitivity risk and then formulates guidelines
regarding asset generation and repricing, funding sources and pricing and
off-balance sheet commitments in order to decrease interest sensitivity risk.
The Company uses computer simulations to measure the net income effect of
various interest rate scenarios.  The modeling reflects interest rate changes
and the related impact on net income over specified periods of time.

The following table illustrates the Company's interest rate sensitivity at
September 30, 1996, assuming relevant assets and liabilities are collected and
paid, respectively, in accordance with their stated maturities.

The Company generally would benefit from increasing market rates of interest
when it has an asset-sensitive gap and generally would benefit from decreasing
market rates of interest when it is liability sensitive.  The Company is
liability sensitive in the one month, three through twelve months and within
one year time frames.  However, the Company's gap analysis is not a precise
indicator of its interest sensitivity position.  The analysis presents only a
static view of the timing of maturities and repricing opportunities, without
taking into consideration that changes in interest rates do not affect all
assets and liabilities equally.  For example, rates paid on a substantial
portion of core deposits may change contractually within a relatively short
time frame, but those rates are viewed by management as significantly less
interest-sensitive than market-based rates such as those paid on non-core
deposits.  Accordingly, management believes that a liability-sensitive gap
position is not as indicative of the Company's true interest sensitivity as it
would be for an organization which depends to a greater extent on purchased
funds to support earning assets.  Net interest income may be affected by other
significant factors in a given interest rate environment, including changes in
the volume and mix of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY

The Company's net loan to deposit ratio increased to 88.1% at September 30,
1996, compared to 81.8% at year end 1995.  The Company's liquid assets as a
percentage of total deposits were 9.10% at September 30, 1996, compared to
13.04% at year-end 1995.  At September 30, 1996, the Company had unused federal
funds lines of approximately $52.2 million, unused lines at the Federal Home
Loan Bank of $37.2 million and an unused credit line at an independent bank of
$4.56 million.  Management analyzes the level of off-balance sheet assets such
as unfunded loan commitments and outstanding letters of credit as they relate
to the levels of cash, cash equivalents, liquid investments and available funds
lines in an attempt to minimize the possibility that a potential shortfall will
exist.  Based on this analysis, management believes that the Company has

A strong capital position is vital to the continued profitability of the
Company because it promotes depositor and investor confidence and provides a
solid foundation for future growth of the organization.  The capital of the
Company and its subsidiary banks (the "Banks") exceeded all prescribed
regulatory capital guidelines at September 30, 1996.  Under the capital
guidelines of their regulators, the Company and the Banks are currently
required to maintain a minimum risk-based total capital ratio of 8%, with at
least 4% being Tier 1 capital.  Tier 1 capital consists of common stockholders'
equity, qualifying perpetual preferred stock and minority interests in equity
accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less goodwill.  In addition, the Company
and the Banks must maintain a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to
total assets) of at least 3%, but this minimum ratio is increased by 100 to 200
basis points for other than the highest rated institutions.  The following
table sets forth the risk-based and leverage ratios of the Company and each
subsidiary bank at September 30, 1996:
