During  the  nine  month  period  ended   September  30,  2001,  the  bank  sold
approximately $4,400,000 of securities,  classified as held-to-maturity,  due to
concerns  about  the  issuer's  creditworthiness  and  in  some  cases,  adverse
prepayment risks.

Contractual  maturities  of debt  securities  at  September  30,  2001,  were as
follows.  Expected  maturities may differ from  contractual  maturities  because
borrowers may have the right to call or prepay  obligations with or without call
or prepayment penalties.

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

General

     Clarkston Financial  Corporation (the "Company") is a Michigan  corporation
incorporated  on May 18,  1998.  The  Company is the bank  holding  company  for
Clarkston State Bank (the "Bank").  The Bank commenced  operations on January 4,
1999. The Bank is a Michigan chartered bank with depository  accounts insured by
the Federal  Deposit  Insurance  Corporation.  The Bank provides a full range of
commercial and consumer banking services,  primarily in Clarkston,  Michigan and
the surrounding market area primarily located in north Oakland County, Michigan.
The Bank  operates five customer  service  locations  including two full service
branches.

Financial Condition

     Total assets of the Company  increased  by $17.7  million or 29.4% to $77.9
million at September  30,  2001,  from $60.2  million at December 31, 2000.  The
increase in assets is primarily  attributable  to the Bank continuing to attract
customer deposits.  The Company anticipates that the Bank's assets will continue
to increase during 2001, which is the Bank's third full year of operations.

     Cash and cash equivalents,  which include federal funds sold and short-term
investments,  increased  $1.7 million or 50% to $5.1  million at  September  30,
2001,  from $3.4  million at December 31,  2000.  The increase is primarily  the
result of prepayments and maturities of securities occurring in September 2001.

     Securities  increased  $8.6 million or 28.4% to $38.9  million at September
30, 2001 from $30.3 million at December 31, 2000.  The increase is the result of
slower than expected loan growth.

     The Company's  portfolio of  held-to-maturity  securities  declined to $7.8
million at  September  30, 2001 from $21.3  million at December  31,  2000.  The
decrease is primarily a result of call options being exercised by the issuers of
the  securities,  and, in some  cases,  management's  decision  to sell  certain
securities  as a result of  concerns  over the  issuer's  creditworthiness.  New
securities  purchased by the Bank with proceeds from those  maturities  and from
new deposits have been classified as available-for-sale.

     Total  loans  increased  by $7.2  million  or  27.9% to  $33.0  million  at
September 30, 2001, from $25.8 million at December 31, 2000. Management believes
that the total loans will continue to increase over time,  although  potentially
at a lower rate of increase.

     The  allowance  for loan  losses as of  September  30,  2001 was  $450,000,
representing  approximately  1.36%  of  total  loans  outstanding,  compared  to
$379,000 as of December 31, 2000.

     As of December 31, 2000, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $335,000
and  as  of  September  30,  2001,  the  accumulated  profit  was  $15,000.  The
accumulated  deficit  was the result of opening  the Bank's  main office and its
branches,  wages paid to  employees,  fees and expenses  incurred in forming the
Company and applying for regulator approvals. The operating profits the bank has
earned in 2000 and 2001 has eliminated the accumulated deficit.

                                       12

Results of Operations

     The  Company's  net  profit  was  $138,000  for the third  quarter  of 2001
compared to net profit of $111,000 for the third quarter of 2000. Net profit was
$350,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001,  compared to $183,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The Bank began  operations in 1999 and
has earned a profit every month since  January,  2000.  Net profit for the three
and nine month periods ended  September  30, 2001  included  federal  income tax
provision of $70,000 and $167,000,  respectively. The comparable periods in 2000
did not include any federal income tax provision due to the Company's  operating
loss carryforward for federal tax purposes.

     Interest income for the third quarter of 2001 was $1.3 million, an increase
of 46.1% from interest  income of $890,000 for the third  quarter of 2000.  This
increase resulted primarily from the increase in loans and securities.  Interest
income was $3.5  million  for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  2001,  an
increase of 59.1% from interest income of $2.2 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000.

     Interest  expense was $1.9 million for the nine months ended  September 30,
2001,  an increase of 72.7% from  interest  expense of $1.1 million for the nine
months ended  September  30, 2000.  This  consisted of interest paid on interest
bearing deposits.

     The Company had an  allowance  for loan  losses of  approximately  1.36% of
total loans at September , 2001.  The  provision for loan loss for the three and
nine  month  periods  ended  September  30 ,  2001,  was  $32,000  and  $73,000,
respectively.  Management  believes the current  rate of providing  for the loan
loss reserve is adequate.

     In each accounting period,  management evaluates the problems and potential
losses in the loan portfolio.  Consideration is also given to off-balance  sheet
items that may  involve  credit  risk,  such as  commitments  to extend  credit.
Management's  evaluation of the allowance is further based on  consideration  of
actual loss  experience,  the present and  prospective  financial  condition  of
borrowers, adequacy of collateral,  industry concentrations within the portfolio
and general economic conditions.  The results of these evaluations are reflected
in the allowance and periodic provision for credit losses.

     The  primary  risk  element   considered  by  management   regarding   each
installment  and  residential  real estate loan is the lack of timely  payments.
Management  has a reporting  system that monitors past due loans and has adopted
policies  to pursue  its  creditor's  rights  in order to  preserve  the  Bank's
position.  The  primary  risk  elements  concerning  commercial  loans  are  the
financial condition of the borrower,  the sufficiency of the collateral and lack
of timely  payment.  Management has a policy of requesting and reviewing  annual
financial statements from its commercial loan customers and periodically reviews
the existence and value of collateral for selected loans.

     Noninterest expense was $467,000 for the third quarter of 2001, an $115,000
(or 32.7%) increase over the third quarter of 2000, with the increase  primarily
attributable  to  increases in salaries and benefits due to the increase of full
time equivalents and normal raises given to employees. There were also increases
in computer and data processing expenses due to growth in the number of accounts
processed.

                                       13

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Liquidity  is  measured by our  ability to raise  funds  through  deposits,
borrowed funds,  capital or cash flow from the repayment of loans and investment
securities.  These funds are used to meet deposit withdrawals,  maintain reserve
requirements,  fund loans and support our  operations.  Liquidity  is  primarily
achieved  through the growth of deposits  and liquid  assets such as  securities
available  for sale,  matured  securities,  and federal  funds  sold.  Asset and
liability  management  is the process of managing our balance sheet to achieve a
mix of earning  assets  and  liabilities  that  maximizes  profitability,  while
providing adequate liquidity.

     Our liquidity strategy is to fund loan growth with deposits and to maintain
an adequate  level of short- and  medium-term  investments to meet typical daily
loan and deposit  activity.  Although  deposits from  depositors  located in our
market area have  consistently  increased,  there is no  assurance  that deposit
growth alone will be sufficient  to fund our loan growth and provide  monies for
additional investing activities.

     Shareholders'  equity  is a  non-interest  bearing  source  of  funds  that
provides  support for asset  growth.  The Company  obtained  its initial  equity
capital in an initial public offering of its common stock in November, 1998. The
Company's plan of operation for the next twelve months does not  contemplate the
need to raise additional  capital during that period.  Management  believes that
its current capital and liquidity will provide the Company with adequate capital
to support its expected  level of deposit and loan growth and to otherwise  meet
its cash and capital requirements for at least the next year.
