                             BANCFIRST CORPORATION
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                 (Dollars in thousands, except per share data)


(1)  GENERAL

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of BancFirst Corporation, BancFirst Investment Corporation,
BancFirst, Lenders Collection Corporation and National Express Corporation.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Assets held in a fiduciary or agency capacity are not assets of the Company
and, accordingly, are not included in the consolidated financial statements.

     The interim financial statements contained herein reflect all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a
fair statement of the financial position and results of operations of the
Company for the interim periods presented.  All such adjustments are of a
normal and recurring nature.  There have been no significant changes in the
accounting policies of the Company since December 31, 1995, the date of the
most recent annual report.  Certain amounts in the 1995 financial statements
have been reclassified to conform with the 1996 presentation.

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles inherently involves the use of
estimates and assumptions which affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and the related disclosures. Such estimates and assumptions may
change over time and actual amounts may differ from those reported.

(2)  ACQUISITIONS

     In October 1996, the Company acquired all the assets and assumed
all the liabilities of Commerce Bancorporation, Inc. of McLoud, Oklahoma
("Commerce Bancorp"), which had approximately $18,000 in total assets.
Commerce Bancorp was controlled by certain executive officers of the
Company.  The acquisition was accomplished through the exchange of 156,508
shares of common stock of the Company for all of the outstanding common
stock of Commerce Bancorp.  The minority shares of Commerce Bancorp's
subsidiary bank were purchased for $102.  The acquisition was accounted for
as a book value purchase, which is similar to the pooling of interests
method, although the effect of the acquisition is included in the Company's
consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition  forward.
The acquisition will not have a material effect on the results of operations
of the Company for 1996.

     In March 1996, the Company acquired City Bankshares, Inc. of
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma ("City Bankshares"), which had $130,000 in total
assets.  The acquisition was for cash of $19,125, with City Bankshares and
its subsidiary, City Bank, being merged into BancFirst.  C-Teq, Inc., an 85%
owned data processing subsidiary of City Bankshares, was spun off to the
shareholders of City Bankshares prior to the acquisition.  BancFirst also
entered into an agreement with the CEO of City Bankshares whereby BancFirst
paid the CEO $1,250 in exchange for an agreement not to compete with
BancFirst for a period of four years.  The acquisition was accounted for as
a purchase.  Accordingly, the effect of the acquisition is included in the
Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition
forward.  A core deposit intangible of $830 and goodwill of $6,876 were
recorded in the acquisition.  Pro forma condensed results of operations, as
though City Bankshares had been acquired January 1, 1995, are as follows:

     In March 1995, the Company acquired State National Bank of Marlow,
Oklahoma, which had total assets of $101,976. The acquisition was for cash
of $17,485, with an additional $500 placed in escrow pending the resolution
of certain matters. State National Bank was immediately merged into
BancFirst.  The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase.  Accordingly,
the effect of the transaction is included in the Company's consolidated
financial statements from the date of the acquisition

forward.  A core deposit intangible of $406 and goodwill of $810 were
recorded in the acquisition.  Subsequent payments from the escrow, if any,
to the former shareholders of State National Bank will increase the goodwill
recorded.  Pro forma condensed results of operations, as though State
National Bank had been acquired January 1, 1994, are as follows:

                             BANCFIRST CORPORATION
                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



SUMMARY

     The Company reported net income of $3.92 million for the quarter
ended September 30, 1996, compared to net income of $3.64 million for the
third quarter of 1995.  The growth in earnings was the combined result of
acquisitions in 1995 and 1996 and internal growth.  Earnings per share was
$0.61 for the third quarter of 1996, compared to $0.57 per share for the
third quarter of 1995.

     Net income for the first nine months of 1996 was $11.2 million,
compared to $9.41 million for the same period of 1995.  Year-to-date
earnings per share was $1.74, compared to $1.47 for the first nine months of
1995.

     Total assets increased $138 million from December 31, 1995 and
$206 million from September 30, 1995 due to acquisitions having total assets
aggregating approximately $140 million, and internal growth.  Stockholders'
equity rose to $106 million, an increase of $8.15 million compared to
December 31, 1995 and $11.7 million compared to September 30, 1995.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THIRD QUARTER

     Net interest income increased for the third quarter of 1996 by
$2.67 million, or 23.6%, as compared to the same quarter of 1995, primarily
as a result of earning asset growth.  Net interest spread was 4.55% for the
third quarter of 1996, compared to 4.36% for 1995, while average net earning
assets increased $42.3 million.  Net interest margin on a taxable equivalent
basis was 5.41% for the third quarter, compared to 5.24% for the same
quarter of 1995.

     The Company provided $432,000 for possible loan losses for the
quarter, compared to $150,000 for the same quarter of 1995.  Net loan
charge-offs were $269,000 for the third quarter of 1996, compared to
$134,000 for the third quarter of 1995.  The net charge-offs in 1996
represent an annualized rate of only 0.15% of total loans.

     Noninterest income increased $586,000, or 18.4%, compared to the
third quarter of 1995 due to income added by acquisitions and from increased
mortgage loan activity.  Noninterest expense increased $2.51 million, or
29.1%, due to added operating expenses of the banks acquired in 1995 and
1996, and the $542,000 refund of FDIC insurance premiums received in the
third quarter of 1995.

YEAR-TO-DATE

     For the first nine months of 1996, net interest income increased
by $7.36 million, or 22.9%, as compared to the first nine months of 1995,
primarily as a result of earning asset growth.  Net interest spread was
4.51% for 1996, compared to 4.36% for 1995, while average net earning assets
increased $33.8 million.  Net interest margin on a taxable equivalent basis
was 5.33% for the first nine months, compared to 5.22% for the same period
of 1995.

     The Company provided $849,000 for possible loan losses for the
year-to-date, compared to $408,000 in 1995.  Net loan charge-offs were
$336,000 for 1996, compared to $162,000 for 1995, representing annualized
rates of only 0.06% and 0.04% of total loans, respectively.

     Noninterest income increased $1.97 million, or 21.5%, compared to
the first nine months of 1995 due to income added by acquisitions and from
increased mortgage loan activity.  Noninterest expense increased $5.88
million, or 22.7%, due to added operating expenses of the banks acquired in
1995 and 1996.

                                       6

 
FINANCIAL POSITION

     Total securities increased $18.9 million compared to December 31,
1995 and $26.6 million compared to September 30, 1995, as a net result of
securities added by acquisitions and maturities of securities used to fund
loan growth.  The net unrealized loss on securities available for sale was
$204,000 at the end of the third quarter of 1996, compared to a gain of $2.4
million at December 31 and a gain of $1.36 million at September 30, 1995.
The average taxable equivalent yield on the securities portfolio for the
third quarter increased to 6.35% from 6.07% for the same quarter of 1995.

     Total loans increased $112 million from December 31, 1995 and $133
million from September 30, 1995 due to both internal loan growth and
acquisitions.  The allowance for possible loan losses increased $1.36
million in the first nine months of 1996 due primarily to purchased reserves
from acquisitions.  The allowance as a percentage of total loans was 1.63%,
1.70% and 1.71% at September 30, 1996, December 31, 1995 and September 30,
1995, respectively.

     Nonperforming and restructured assets increased slightly in the
first nine months of 1996 to $7.72 million from $5.77 million at year-end
1995 due to the nonperforming assets of the bank acquired in 1996.  Although
the ratio of nonperforming and restructured assets to total assets is only
0.65%, it is reasonable to expect that over the next several years
nonperforming loans and loan losses will rise to historical norms as a
result of economic and credit cycles.

     Total deposits increased $136 million as compared to December 31,
1995 and $193 million compared to September 30, 1995 due to acquisitions and
internal growth.  The Company's deposit base continues to be comprised
substantially of core deposits, with large denomination certificates of
deposit being only 10% of total deposits at September 30, 1996.

     Short-term borrowings decreased $8.04 million from December 31,
1995 as the net result of the maturity of $15 million in Federal Home Loan
Bank borrowings and an increase in federal funds purchased.

     Stockholders' equity rose to $106 million, an increase of $8.15
million compared to year-end 1995 and $11.7 million compared to September
30, 1995.  These increases were primarily the result of accumulated
earnings.  Average stockholders' equity to average assets dropped slightly
to 8.84% from 9.43% at December 31, 1995 due to an acquisition in March
1996. The Company's regulatory capital ratios all remain well in excess of
the minimum requirements.
