                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                    For the six months ended June 30, 2000

1.   The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and reflect all
     adjustments and reclassifications which, in the opinion of management, are
     necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and
     financial condition of the interim period.  All adjustments and
     reclassifications are of a normal and recurring nature.  Results for the
     periods ending June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results
     which may be expected for any other interim periods or for the year as a
     whole.

2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.  See note 1 of the Notes to
     Consolidated Financial Statements of the Citizens Holding Company that were
     included in the Form 10-K Annual Report filed March 29, 2000.

     Investment Securities -- The Corporation classifies all of its securities
     as available-for-sale and carries them at fair value with unrealized gains
     or losses reported as a separate component of capital, net of any
     applicable income taxes. Realized gains or losses on the sale of securities
     available-for-sale, if any, are determined on an identification basis. The
     Corporation does not have any securities classified as Held for Trading.

3.   In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation enters into commitments
     to extend credit to its customers.  The unused portion of these commitments
     is not reflected in the accompanying financial statements.  As of June 30,
     2000, the Corporation had entered into commitments with certain customers
     that had an unused balance of $13,850,000 compared to $16,241,000 unused at
     December 31, 1999.  There were $367,850 of letters of credit outstanding at
     June 30, 2000, compared to $313,105 at December 31, 1999.

4.   Net income per share -- Basic, has been computed based on the weighted
     average number of shares outstanding during each period. Net income per
     share - Diluted, has been computed based on the weighted average number of
     shares outstanding during each period plus the dilutive effect of
     outstanding granted options. Basic weighted average shares have been
     adjusted to reflect the five-for-one stock split on the common stock
     effective January 1, 1999. Earnings per share were computed as follows:

                    CITIZENS HOLDING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARY
          ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Management's discussion and analysis is written to provide greater insight into
the results of operations and the financial condition of Citizens Holding
Company, (the "Corporation").

Statements concerning future performance, developments or events, concerning
expectations for growth and market forecasts, and any other guidance on future
periods, constitute forward-looking statements which are subject to a number of
risks and uncertainties which might cause actual results to differ materially
from stated expectations.  These factors include, but are not limited to, the
approval of regulatory agencies and shareholders, the effect of interest rates
changes, the expansion of the Corporation, competition in the financial services
market for both deposits and loans, and general economic conditions.


LIQUIDITY

The Corporation has an asset and liability management program that assists
management in maintaining net interest margins during times of both rising and
falling interest rates and in maintaining sufficient liquidity.  Liquidity of
the Corporation at June 30, 2000 was 35.74% and at June 30, 1999 was 35.90%.
Liquidity is the ratio of short-term investments to potentially volatile
liabilities.  Management believes it maintains adequate liquidity for the
Corporation's current needs.

When the Corporation has more funds than it needs for its reserve requirements
or short-term liquidity needs, the Corporation increases its security
investments or sells federal funds.  It is management's policy to maintain an
adequate portion of its portfolio of assets and liabilities on a short-term
basis to insure rate flexibility and to meet loan funding and liquidity needs.
The Corporation has secured and unsecured federal funds lines with correspondent
banks in the amount of $38,500,000.  In addition, the Corporation has the
ability to draw on its line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank in excess
of $47,448,000 at June 30, 2000.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Corporation's equity capital was $39,581,513 at June 30, 2000.  The main
source of capital for the Corporation has been the retention of net income.

On January 1, 1999, the Corporation issued a five-for-one (5:1) split to the
shareholders of the Corporation.  This split increased the number of shares
outstanding to 3,308,750


from 661,750. The number of shares authorized increased from 750,000 to
3,750,000 after the split. Additionally, the shareholders approved an increase
in authorized shares to 15,000,000 at the annual meeting held April 13, 1999.
Cash dividends in the amount of $661,750 or $.20 per share were paid year to
date June 30, 2000. This is the first year that the Company paid a quarterly
dividend rather than paying a semi-annual dividend as had been paid in the prior
years.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require the Corporation to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier
1 capital (primarily common stock and retained earnings, less goodwill) to risk
weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets.  Management believes
that as of June 30, 2000, the Corporation meets all capital adequacy
requirements to which it is subject.



                                                                                                     To Be Well

Annualized return on average equity was 13.78% and 13.97% for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2000, and 17.24% and 15.99% for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1999.

The book value per share increased to $11.96 at June 30, 2000 compared to $11.35
at December 31, 1999.  This increase is due to earnings exceeding dividends paid
during this period.  Average assets for the six months ended June 30, 2000, were
$371,117,289 compared to $347,613,000 at December 31, 1999; average equity
increased to $39,333,947 for the six months ended June 30, 2000, from
$37,603,000 at December 31, 1999.

NET INTEREST INCOME/NET INTEREST MARGIN

One component of the Corporation's earnings is net interest income, which is the
difference between the interest and fees earned on loans and investments and the
interest paid for deposits and borrowed funds.  The net interest margin is net
interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets.

The annualized net interest margin was 4.25% for the six months ended June 30,
2000, compared to an annualized net interest margin of 4.51% for the six months
ended June 30, 1999.  Earnings assets averaged $343,618,147 for the six months
ended June 30, 2000.  This represented an increase of $32,503,101 or 10.45%,
over average earning assets of $311,115,046 for the six months ended June 30,
1999.  This increase was from normal growth of the Corporation and not from any
special program or promotion.


The net interest income figures above include income from the Corporation's
securities.  The following table shows the interest and fees and corresponding
yields for loans only.

CREDIT LOSS EXPERIENCE

As a natural corollary to the Corporation's lending activities, some loan losses
are to be expected.  The risk of loss varies with the type of loan being made
and the creditworthiness of the borrower over the term of the loan.  The degree
of perceived risk is taken into account in establishing the structure of, and
interest rates and security for, specific loans and for various types of loans.
The Corporation attempts to minimize its credit risk exposure by use of thorough
loan application and approval procedures.

The Corporation maintains a program of systematic review of its existing loans.
Loans are graded for their overall quality.  Those loans which the Corporation's
management determines require further monitoring and supervision are segregated
and reviewed on a periodic basis.  Significant problem loans are reviewed on a
monthly basis by the Corporation's Board of Directors.

The Corporation charges off that portion of any loan which management considers
to represent a loss.  A loan is generally considered by management to represent
a loss in whole or in part when an exposure beyond the collateral value is
apparent, servicing of the unsecured portion has been discontinued or collection
is not anticipated based on the borrower's financial condition and general
economic conditions in the borrower's industry. The principal amount of any loan
which is declared a loss is charged against the Corporation's allowance for loan
losses.

The Corporation's allowance for loan losses is designed to provide for loan
losses which can be reasonably anticipated.  The allowance for loan losses is
established through charges to operating expenses in the form of provisions for
loan losses.  Actual loan losses or recoveries are charges or credited to the
allowance for loan losses.  The amount of the allowance is determined by
management of the Corporation.  Among the factors considered in determining the
allowance for loan losses are the current financial condition of the
Corporation's borrowers and the value of security, if any, for their loans.
Estimates of future economic conditions and their impact on various industries
and individual borrowers are also taken into consideration, as are the
Corporation's historical loan loss experience and reports of banking regulatory
authorities.  Because these estimates, factors and evaluations are primarily
judgmental, no assurance can be given as to whether or not


the Corporation will sustain loan losses or that subsequent evaluation of the
loan portfolio may not require substantial changes in such allowance.

The following table summarizes the Corporation's allowance for loan loss for the
dates indicated:

The provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was
$197,131, a decrease of $39,852 over the $236,983 for the same period in 1999.
The provision for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $281,993; a decrease of
$100,624 or 26.3%, over the $382,617 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.
Gross loans outstanding increased 4.63% for the six months in 2000.  For the
three months ended June 30, 2000, net loan losses charged to the allowance for
loan losses totaled $122,131, a decrease of $64,852 over the same period in
1999.  For the six months ended June 30, 2000, net loan losses totaled $131,993
compared to $282,617 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.

Management of the Corporation reviews with the Board of Directors the adequacy
of the allowance for possible loan losses on a quarterly basis.  The loan loss
provision is adjusted when specific items reflect a need for such an adjustment.
Management believes that there were no material loan losses during the last
fiscal year that have not been charged off.  Management also believes that the
Corporation has adequately reserved for all credits in its portfolio that may
result in a loss to the Corporation.

OTHER OPERATING INCOME

Other operating income includes service charges on deposit accounts, wire
transfer fees, safe deposit box rentals and other revenue not derived from
interest on earning assets.  Other operating income for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2000, increased $59,010 or 7.41% and $80,375 or 5.23% over the
respective periods ended June 30, 1999.  Especially in periods of declining net
interest margins, the Corporation has sought


to increase the income derived from these sources and will continue to seek
opportunities to do so.


OTHER OPERATING EXPENSE

Other expenses include salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment,
and other operating expenses.  The continued growth of the Corporation has put
pressure on Management to control overhead expenses.  The growth of the
Corporation, annual raises, and the addition of the mortgage department has
resulted in an increase in salaries and benefits of $208,976 and $284,705 for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 over the respective periods in
1999.  Other operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000
were $2,130,784 and $4,357,129 compared to the $1,852,129 and $3,858,043 for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1999 for an increase of $278,655 and
$499,086 respectively.  The Corporation's efficiency ratios for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2000 were 46.22% and 47.29%, respectively.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents are made up of cash, balances at correspondent banks
and federal funds sold.  The increase at June 30, 2000 was due to a temporary
increase in correspondent bank accounts. The Corporation did not have any
federal funds sold at this date due to continued strong loan demand.


INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The investment securities are made up of U. S. Treasury Notes, U. S. Agency
debentures, mortgage-backed securities, obligations of states, counties and
municipal governments and Federal Home Loan Bank Stock.

Investments decreased $1,297,009 or 1.27% as a result of the need for liquidity
to fund the strong loan demand.

LOANS

Loan demand continued to be strong in the service area of the Corporation as
evidenced by the 4.63% increase in gross loans.  Residential housing loans
continue to be in demand along with commercial and industrial loans.  No special
loan programs were initiated during this period to add to this growth.

                                   --------------------------------------------------------


The increase in deposits reflected in the above table is solely the result of
normal deposit growth for our service area.  The Corporation does not have any
brokered deposits.  There were no special deposit programs or incentives in
place during this period.

YEAR 2000

The Corporation has not encountered any problems with the Y2K date change.
Although we are pleased with our transition through this period, we are on guard
for any problems that might yet surface.  We will continue to look for potential
Y2K problems until we are satisfied that no such problems exist.
