FFLC BANCORP, INC. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) 1. Basis of Presentation. In the opinion of the management of FFLC Bancorp, Inc., the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position at September 30, 1997 and the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996. The results of operations and other data for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1997. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FFLC Bancorp, Inc. (the "Holding Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, First Federal Savings Bank of Lake County (the "Savings Bank") (together, the "Company"). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 2. Loan Impairment and Loan Losses. The Company prepares a quarterly review of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses to also identify and value impaired loans in accordance with guidance in the Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 114 and 118. No impaired loans were identified by the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 or 1996. An analysis of the change in the allowance for loan losses was as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, --------------------- ------------------- 1997 1996 1997 1996 ------- ------ ------ ------ Beginning balance $ 1,193 1,003 1,063 977 Provision for loan losses 364 34 502 63 Loans charged-off (8) (14) (16) (17) ------- ------ ------ ------ Ending balance $ 1,549 1,023 1,549 1,023 ===== ===== ===== ===== 3. Impact of New Accounting Issues. In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities" ("SFAS No. 125"). That Statement provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities. That Statement also provides consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial assets that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings. SFAS No. 125 is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets as well as extinguishments of liabilities occurring in 1997. The adoption of SFAS No. 125 had no significant effect on the Company's financial position at September 30, 1997 or result of operations for the nine months then ended. FFLC BANCORP, INC. Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited), Continued 4. Future Accounting Requirements. The FASB has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS 128"). This Statement specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for net income per share for entities with publicly-held common stock. SFAS 128 is effective for both interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 1997 and upon adoption, all prior period net income per share data presented will be restated to conform with SFAS 128. 5. Per Share Amounts. Income (loss) per share of common stock has been determined by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Shares of common stock purchased by the ESOP and RRP incentive plans are only considered outstanding when the shares are released for allocation to participants. Stock options are regarded as common stock equivalents and are therefore considered in both primary and fully diluted income per share calculations. Common stock equivalents are computed using the treasury stock method. The following table presents the calculation of income (loss) per share: Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, --------------------------- --------------------------- 1997 1996 1997 1996 ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- Weighted average shares of common stock issued and outstanding before adjustments for ESOP, RRP and common stock options ................... 2,312,016 2,597,562 2,355,990 2,622,743 Adjustment to reflect the effect of unallocated ESOP and RRP shares ............................

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations General FFLC Bancorp, Inc. (the "Holding Company") was formed as the holding company for First Federal Savings Bank of Lake County (the "Savings Bank") (together the "Company") in connection with the Savings Bank's conversion from a federally chartered mutual savings and loan association to a federally chartered stock savings bank on January 4, 1994. The Company's consolidated results of operations are primarily those of the Savings Bank. The Savings Bank's principal business continues to be attracting retail deposits from the general public and investing those deposits, together with principal repayments on loans and investments and funds generated from operations, primarily in mortgage loans secured by one-to-four-family owner-occupied homes and, to a lesser extent, mortgage-backed securities, construction loans, commercial loans, consumer and other loans, and multi-family residential mortgage loans. In addition, the Savings Bank holds investments permitted by federal laws and regulations including securities issued by the U.S. Government and agencies thereof. The Savings Bank's revenues are derived principally from interest on its mortgage loan and mortgage-backed securities portfolios and interest and dividends on its investment securities. The Savings Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") system and its deposits are insured to the applicable limits by the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"). The Savings Bank is subject to regulation by the Office of Thrift Supervision (the "OTS") as its chartering agency, and the FDIC as its deposit insurer. The Savings Bank has 9 full-service locations in Lake and Sumter Counties, Florida. The Savings Bank's results of operations are dependent primarily on net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned primarily on its loans and investment and mortgage-backed securities portfolios, and its cost of funds, consisting of the interest paid on its deposits and borrowings. The Savings Bank's operating results are also affected, to a lesser extent, by fee income and by gains or losses on the sale of loans, investment and mortgage-backed securities available for sale and foreclosed real estate. The Savings Bank's operating expenses consist primarily of salaries and employee benefits, occupancy expenses, deposit insurance premiums and other general and administrative expenses. The Savings Bank's results of operations are also significantly affected by general economic and competitive conditions, particularly changes in market interest rates, government policies, and actions of regulatory authorities. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's most liquid assets are cash, amounts due from banks and interest-bearing deposits. The levels of these assets are dependent on the Company's lending, investing, operating, and deposit and borrowing activities during any given period. At September 30, 1997, cash, amounts due from banks and interest-bearing deposits, totaled $8.7 million. FFLC BANCORP, INC. The Savings Bank is required to maintain an average daily balance of specified liquid assets equal to a monthly average of not less than a specified percentage of its net withdrawable deposit accounts plus short-term borrowings. This liquidity requirement is currently 5% but may be changed from time to time by the OTS to any amount within the range of 4% to 10% depending upon economic conditions and the savings flows of member institutions. OTS regulations also require each member savings institution to maintain an average daily balance of short-term liquid assets at a specified percentage (currently 1%) of the total of its net withdrawable deposits and borrowed funds payable in one year or less. Monetary penalties may be imposed for failure to meet these liquidity requirements. The Savings Bank's liquidity and short-term liquidity ratios for September 30, 1997 were 9.6% and 4.5%, respectively, which exceeded the requirements. The Savings Bank has never been subject to monetary penalties for failure to meet its liquidity requirements. The Savings Bank's primary sources of funds include proceeds from payments and prepayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities, proceeds from maturities of investment securities, and increases in deposits and borrowings. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans, mortgage-backed securities and investment securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit inflows and mortgage and mortgage-backed securities prepayments are greatly influenced by local conditions, general interest rates, and regulatory changes. At September 30, 1997, the Savings Bank had outstanding commitments to originate $9.9 million of loans and to fund the undisbursed portion of loans in process of approximately $12.5 million and undisbursed commercial lines of credit of approximately $5.1 million. The Savings Bank believes that it will have sufficient funds available to meet its commitments. At September 30, 1997, certificates of deposit which were scheduled to mature in one year or less totaled $152.0 million. Management believes, based on past experience, that a significant portion of those funds will remain with the Savings Bank. The Savings Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory-and possibly additional discretionary-actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Savings Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Savings Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Savings Bank's capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgements by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Savings Bank to maintain minimum amounts (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined). Management believes, as of September 30, 1997, that the Savings Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. FFLC BANCORP, INC. As of September 30, 1997, the most recent notification from the OTS categorized the Savings Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Savings Bank must maintain minimum tangible, Tier I (core), Tier I (risk-based) and total risk-based capital ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution's category. The Savings Bank's actual capital amounts and ratios at September 30, 1997 are also presented in the table.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 Results of Operations General Operating Results. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 1997 was $926,000 compared to a net loss of ($223,000) for the three months ended September 30, 1996. The increase in net income for the 1997 period was primarily due to the effect of the one-time SAIF assessment of $1.7 million included in noninterest expense in the 1996 period and the $302,000 pretax gain on the sale of the Savings Bank's investment in its computer service bureau during the 1997 period, partially offset by a $330,000 increase in provision for loan losses during the 1997 period. Interest Income. Interest income increased $1.2 million, or 19.4% from $6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996 to $7.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 1997. The increase was due to a $47.9 million increase in average interest-earning assets outstanding and an increase in the average yield on interest-earning assets from 7.53% for the three months ended September 30, 1996 to 7.83% for the comparable period in 1997. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $811,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997 when compared to the 1996 period. The increase was the result of a $52.6 million increase in the average interest-bearing liabilities outstanding during the 1997 period compared to the 1996 period as well as an increase in the weighted average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities from 4.71% for the three months ended September 30, 1996 to 4.95% for the comparable period in 1997. Provision for Loan Losses. The Savings Bank's provision for loan losses increased $330,000 from $34,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996 to $364,000 for the comparable period in 1997. The increase reflects the overall growth within the loan portfolio and the Savings Bank's continuing policy of evaluating the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses and prevailing standards within the thrift industry. Generally, such evaluation includes consideration of the level of nonperforming loans and the level and composition of the Savings Bank's loan portfolio. Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased $333,000 from $208,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996 to $541,000 for the 1997 period. The increase was primarily due to a $302,000 pretax gain recognized on the sale of the Savings Bank's investment in its computer service bureau in September 1997. Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense consists primarily of salaries and employee benefits, occupancy expense and FDIC insurance premiums. Noninterest expenses decreased by $1.4 million, from $3.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996 to $1.9 million for the 1997 period. The decrease was primarily due to the one-time SAIF recapitalization assessment of $1.7 million recorded in the 1996 period and a $123,000 decrease in deposit insurance premiums for the 1997 period, all of which was partially offset by an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $273,000. Income Taxes. Income taxes increased from a ($91,000) tax credit for the three months ended September 30, 1996 (an effective rate of 29.0%) to $547,000 (an effective tax rate of 37.1%) for the corresponding period in 1997. FFLC BANCORP, INC. Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 General Operating Results. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, was $2.8 million, compared to $1.4 million earned for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. The increase in net income for the 1997 period was primarily due to the effect of the one-time SAIF assessment of $1.7 million, included in noninterest expense in the 1996 period, the $302,000 pretax gain from the sale of the Savings Bank's investment in its computer service bureau during September 1997 and an increase in net interest income of $1.0 million. Interest Income. Interest income increased $2.7 million or 14.8% from $18.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 to $20.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The increase in interest income was due to a $35.2 million increase in average interest-earning assets outstanding and an increase in the average yield on interest-earning assets from 7.50% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 to 7.75% for nine months ended September 30, 1997. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $1.6 million, or 16.7% from $9.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 to $11.2 million for the same period in 1997. The increase was due to an increase of $39.5 million in average interest-bearing liabilities outstanding and an increase in the weighted average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities from 4.72% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 to 4.81% for the same period in 1997. Provision for Loan Losses. The Savings Bank's provision for loan losses increased $439,000 from $63,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 to $502,000 for the same period in 1997. The increase reflects the overall growth within the loan portfolio and the Savings Bank's continuing policy of evaluating the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses and prevailing standards within the thrift industry. Generally, such evaluation includes consideration of the level of nonperforming loans and the level and composition of the Savings Bank's loan portfolio. Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased $370,000 from $585,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 to $955,000 for the 1997 period.

Noninterest expense decreased by $1.1 million, or 16.9%, from $6.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 to $5.4 million for the 1997 period. That decrease was primarily due to the one-time SAIF recapitalization assessment of $1.7 million in the 1996 period and a $357,000 decrease in deposit insurance premiums for the 1997 period, all of which was partially offset by an increase in salaries and employee benefits of $614,000. Income Taxes. Income taxes increased from $953,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 (an effective rate of 40.8%) to $1.6 million (an effective tax rate of 36.6%) for the corresponding period in 1997.
