VRB BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information, and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule
10-01 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. All adjustments made to the
unaudited interim financial statements were of a normal recurring nature.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months
ended March 31, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
be expected for year-end December 31, 1997. For further information, refer
to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in
the Corporation Annual Report on 10-K for the year ended December 31,1996.
NOTE 2 - ACCOUNTING CHANGES
In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial
Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities." The statement provides accounting
and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets
and extinguishments of liabilities. Those standards are based on consistent
application of a financial components approach focusing on control. Under
that approach, after a transfer of financial assets, an entity recognizes
the financial and servicing assets it controls and the liabilities it has
incurred, derecognizes financial assets when control has been surrendered,
and drecognizes liabilities when extinguished. This statement, which
became effective after December 31, 1996, wil have no material affect on
the consolidated financial statements.
<PAGE>
Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Assets:
Total assets of VRB Bancorp and its wholly owned subsidiary, Valley of the
Rogue Bank, increased when comparing March 31, 1997 balances to December 31,
1996 and March 31, 1996 balances, respectively. At the end of the first
quarter of 1997, total assets amounted to $179,354,405, a $19,135,702 or
11.94% increase when compared to the first quarter of 1996, and a $2,247,738
or 1.3% increase when compared to December 31, 1996 balances of $177,106,667.
The table below provides abbreviated balance sheets at the end of the
respective quarters indicating the changes that have occurred in the major
portfolios of VRB Bancorp and subsidiary over the past year:

</TABLE>
Loans:
Outstanding loans totaled $101,819,367 at March 31, 1997, representing
a $12,210,735 or 13.63% increase when compared to March 31, 1996, and a
$2,043,565 or 2.05% increase when compared to 1996 year end balances of
$99,775,802. The Bank introduced a "Home Equity Line of Credit" and
is in the process of introducing an accounts receivable financing product. It
is expected that these new products, along with the Bank's increased marketing
efforts will have a positive influence on the Bank's ability to increase
market share during the next several quarters.
<PAGE>
The composition of the Bank's loan portfolio remained stable when compared to
1996 year end balances. The Bank's real estate construction and mortgage loan
portfolio represents 75.49%, unchanged from the year ended December 31, 1996.
Commercial loans increased from 13.21% of the portfolio at December 31, 1996,
to 13.82% at March 31, 1997.
The quality of VRB's loan portfolio remains strong. For the three months
ending March 31, 1997, management's analysis of the portfolio has indicated
that no provision for loan losses was warranted. At March 31, 1997, the
allowance of $1,630,418 for loan losses was considered sufficient to absorb
possible losses on loans which may become uncollectible based on an evaluation
of the portfolio by management. During the three months ended March 31, 1997
and 1996, the Bank realized insignificant net charge-offs of loans.
The following table presents the composition of the Bank's loan portfolio at
the date indicated:

Investment Portfolio:
At March 31, 1997 the Bank's portfolio of investment securities totaled
$39,799,043, representing an increase of $2,199,003 or 5.85% when compared to
the balance of the portfolio at March 31, 1996 and a $485,651 or 1.21%
decrease when compared to a December 31, 1996 securities portfolio of
$40,284,694. Investments in federal funds sold (an overnight investment),
were $20,000,000, at March 31, 1997, compared to $17,200,000 at March 31,
1996. The balance of federal funds sold is influenced by cash demands,
customer deposit levels, loan activity, and other investment transactions.
The following table provides the book value of the Bank's portfolio of
investment securities as of March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996:

</TABLE>
Deposits:
From March 31, 1996 to March 31, 1997 deposits have increased by $16,087,307
or 11.38%. When compared to December 31, 1996 deposits have increased
$1,863,227 or 1.20%. The increase experienced in deposits when compared to
both December 31, 1996 and March 31 1996 is a result of management's decision
to become more competitive in pricing deposits, increased marketing, and
increased emphasis on implementing a sales culture. The growth in deposit
accounts has primarily been in Money Market Checking accounts and Non-interest
bearing checking accounts. These two categories have increased 16.52% and
17.99%, respectively, when compared to March 31, 1996. Non-interest bearing
deposits continue to be a reliable and substantial portion of our deposit
base accounting for 28.66% of total deposits at March 31, 1997.
<PAGE>
Shareholders' Equity:
Shareholder equity increased $600,987 during the first three months of 1997.
Shareholder equity at March 31, 1997 amounted to $20,789,121 compared to
$20,188,134 at December 31, 1996. The increase in equity is directly
attributable to earnings generated of $834,283 and the exercise of stock
options (4,665 shares for a total of $20,304). These additions to
equity were partially offset by a change in the value of the "available for
sale" portion of our investment portfolio. The "unrealized gain/loss" on
this portion of the portfolio is reflected in shareholder equity. The value
of this section of the investment portfolio declined $253,600 when comparing
December 31, 1996 to March 31, 1997.
Valley of the Rogue Bank is required to maintain minimum amounts of capital to
"risk weighted" assets, as defined by banking regulators. At March 31, 1997,
the Bank was required to have minimum Tier 1 and Total Capital ratios of 4.0%
and 8.0%, respectively. VRB's actual ratios at that date were 16.39% and
17.64%, respectively.
Results of Operations
Earnings:
For the three months ended March 31, 1997, VRB achieved net earnings of
$834,283, representing a 16.29% annualized return on average shareholder
equity and a 1.87% annualized return on average outstanding assets. These
returns compare to a 16.4% return on average equity and 1.88% return on
average assets for the same period in 1996. For the year ended December 31,
1996, VRB Bancorp achieved a 1.99% return on average assets and a 17.26%
return on average equity.

Interest Income and Expenses:
The following table shows the amount of the increase (decrease) in VRB
Bancorp's consolidated interest income and expense and attributes such amounts

Interest income for the first three months of 1997 amounted to $3,470,905, an
increase of $386,999 or 12.5% when compared to the $3,083,906 in interest
generated during the first three months of 1996. Interest expense increased
$82,839 or 9.38% when comparing the $883,286 incurred for the first three
months of 1996 to 1997's comparable period of $966,125.
Interest Margin:
The Bank's net interest margin after adjusting tax exempt income to reflect a
tax equivalent basis, increased $316,152. or 13.69% when comparing the first
three months of 1997 and 1996. The margin expressed as a percentage of net
average earning assets declined from 6.45% to 6.39% when comparing the periods
ending March 31, 1996, and 1997, respectively.
<PAGE>
Total earning assets averaged $161,682,296 and $141,088,284 for the three
month periods ending March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The average yield
on earning assets, when adjusted to reflect the tax benefits on certain types
of investments, decreased slightly to 8.89% in 1997, compared to 9.05% in
1996.
Interest bearing liabilities averaged $112,588,797 and $99,033,687 during the
first three months of 1997 and 1996, respectively. The average cost of these
liabilities decreased from 3.57% in 1996 to 3.43% in 1997. The average cost
of total interest bearing liabilities and non interest bearing deposits
declined from 2.61% during the first quarter of 1996 to 2.50% during the same
period in 1997.

Noninterest Income
Noninterest income increased $15,110 or 4.53% when comparing the first three
months of 1997 and 1996. The increase was a result of increased income from
service charges on deposit accounts, which was partially offset by a
decline in income generated from our real estate loan department. Service
charge income from deposit accounts increased from $229,479 for the first
three months of 1996 to $255,225 for the same period in 1997.
Noninterest Expense:
Noninterest expenses increased $154,566 or 10.74% when comparing the first
three months of 1997 to the same period in 1996. Noninterest expense totaled
$1,593,851 for the first three months of 1997 compared to $1,439,285 for the
same period in 1996. The increase in expenses was a direct result of
increased staffing levels in response to the Bank's commitment to provide
personal service for existing and prospective customers.
Income Taxes:
The provision for income taxes amounted to $425,000 and $363,000 for the
periods ending March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The provision resulted
in effective combined federal and state tax rates of 33.74% and 33.16% for
1997 and 1996.
Liquidity Management
Management has always placed a high priority on maintaining a high liquidity
ratio through a moderate loan-to-deposit ratio and a conservative investment
portfolio. At March 31, 1997 the Bank's loan-to-deposit ratio was 64.68%.
Additionally, there was at March 31, 1997 $20,000,000 invested in federal
funds sold, an overnight investment, to meet potential liquidity needs.
Asset-Liability Management
The principal purpose of asset-liability management is to manage the Bank's
sources and uses of funds to maximize net interest income under different
interest rate conditions with minimal risk. On a monthly basis, the Bank
calculates the "GAP", the difference between repricing assets and repricing
liabilities in specific time periods. This analysis provides an indication of
the Bank's earnings risks due to future interest rate changes. As of March
31, 1997, management's analysis indicated that the Bank's earnings risk was
within acceptable guidelines.
