FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1996

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

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this discussion is to focus on Horizon's financial condition,
changes in financial condition and the results of operations in order to provide
a  better  understanding  of  the  consolidated  financial  statements  included
elsewhere  herein.  This  discussion  should  be read in  conjunction  with  the
consolidated financial statements and the related notes.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

LIQUIDITY

The Bank  maintains a stable  base of core  deposits  provided by long  standing
relationships  with  consumers  and local  businesses.  These  deposits  are the
principal  source of liquidity  for  Horizon.  Other  sources of  liquidity  for
Horizon  include  earnings,  loan  repayment,   investment  security  sales  and
maturities,   sale  of  real  estate  loans  and  borrowing  relationships  with
correspondent  banks,  including  the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB).  During the
first quarter of 1996, cash flows were generated from earnings of $869 thousand,
a $8 thousand  decrease in investment  securities  and a $4 million  increase in
borrowings  with FHLB.  Cash flows were used for a $5 million  increase  in loan
demand, a $5 million  decrease in deposits and an $8 million  reduction in short
term borrowings.  The net cash position decreased $5 million,  primarily in cash
and due from banks and Federal  funds sold.  In addition to  liquidity  provided
from the normal operating, funding and investing activities of Horizon, at March
31, 1996, Bank has available  approximately $37.5 million in unused credit lines
with various money center banks.

There have been no other  material  changes in the liquidity of Horizon from
December 31, 1995 to March 31, 1996.





FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1996

CAPITAL RESOURCES

The capital  resources of Horizon and Bank remain  strong and exceed  regulatory
capital  ratios for "well  capitalized"  banks at March 31, 1996.  Stockholders'
equity totaled  $32.588  million ($3.981 million from ESOP) as of March 31, 1996
compared to $32.371  million ($3.818 million from ESOP) as of December 31, 1995.
The increase in  stockholders'  equity  during the first  quarter of 1996 is the
result of the increase in the market value of  investment  securities  available
for sale accounted for as an  addition/reduction of stockholders' equity and net
income,  net of dividends  paid. At March 31, 1996,  the ratio of  stockholders'
equity to assets was 9.07%  compared to 8.80% for 1995.  Horizon  increased  its
quarterly dividend from $.30 to $.35 per share in April 1996.

Horizon has  selectively  purchased  shares that became  available in the market
from time to time. During the first quarter of 1996,  management purchased 1,756
shares at a cost of $68 thousand.

There have been no other  material  changes in Horizon's  capital  resources
from December 31, 1995 to March 31, 1996.


MATERIAL  CHANGES IN FINANCIAL  CONDITION - MARCH 31, 1996  COMPARED TO DECEMBER
31, 1995

Because of the  nature of its  activities,  Horizon  is  subject to pending  and
threatened  legal  actions  that  arise in the  normal  course of  business.  In
management's opinion, after consultation with counsel, none of the litigation to
which Horizon or any of its  subsidiaries is a party will have a material effect
on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of Horizon.


FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1996

Horizon's  noninterest-bearing  deposits  declined to $33.3 million at March 31,
1996 compared to $45.5  million at December 31, 1995.  This decline is primarily
the result of seasonal  increases  in public fund  accounts at December 31, 1995
that subsequently declined.

There have been no other material changes in the financial  condition of Horizon
from December 31, 1995 to March 31, 1996.






RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

MATERIAL CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - MARCH 31, 1996 COMPARED TO
MARCH 31, 1995.

First quarter 1996 earnings totaled $869 thousand or $1.16 per share compared to
$1.498  million or $1.97 per share for the same quarter in 1995.  In March 1995,
Horizon  received a federal income tax refund totaling $1.190 million  including
interest  of $298  thousand  or $1.57 per share.  Without  the effect of the tax
refund and related interest income, earnings per share increased $.73 or 170%.

Net interest  income was $4.070  million for the first  quarter 1996 compared to
$3.714  million for the same period 1995.  This increase is primarily the result
of strong loan growth,  especially in the direct  installment  and mortgage loan
portfolios.

Total noninterest income for the first quarter of 1996, excluding the effects of
interest on Federal  income tax refunds of $298,  increased $179 thousand or 22%
from the same  quarter in 1995.  The largest  component of the change was in the
Trust Department income which increased $93 thousand or 22% from the same period
in 1995.

Noninterest expense increased slightly from $3.704 million to $3.784 million for
the first  quarter  1996  compared  to 1995.  The largest  increase  was in data
processing  expense of $85  thousand.  Salaries  and benefits  were  essentially
unchanged with a $17 thousand  increase to $1.967 million.  Horizon continues to
monitor its staffing  model to determine the optimum  number of  owner-employees
per operating division.

There have been no other  material  changes  in the  results  of  operations  of
Horizon from December 31, 1995 to March 31, 1996.
