                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FIANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 (Unaudited)
                                      
Note 1   Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Shelby County
Bancorp (the "Corporation") and its subsidiary Shelby County Savings Bank, FSB
(the "Bank").  A summary of significant accounting policies is set forth in
Note 1 of  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the September
30, 1997 Annual Report to Shareholders.

The consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with instructions to Form 10-Q, and therefore do not include all information
and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results
of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

The consolidated interim financial statements at December 31, 1997 and for the
three months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 have not been audited by
independent accountants, but reflect, in the opinion of management, all
adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for
such periods.

Note 2   Earnings per Share

Shelby County Bancorp has implemented Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards 128, "Earnings per Share" (EPS) which is effective for interim and
annual periods ending after December 15, 1997, which requires the presentation
of basic and dilutive earnings per share.  Accordingly, these amounts appear on
the financial statements in this Form 10-Q.  EPS have been computed on the
basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the
dilutive effect of stock options not exercised during the periods presented
using the treasury stock method.  The weighted average number of shares
outstanding for use in the basic EPS computations was 175,950 for the three
months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996.  The weighted average number of shares
for use in the dilutive EPS computations was 181,282 and 179,605 for the three
months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

Note 3   Stock Option Plan

The Corporation has adopted a stock option plan whereby 17,250 shares of        
authorized but unissued common stock were reserved for future issuance upon the
exercise of stock options granted to key employees and directors at an option
price of $10 per share.  Options for 12,075 shares at an option price of $10
per share have been granted under the plan.  Three thousand four hundred and
fifty shares of stock have been issued under the plan as of December 31, 1997.
Options for 1,725 shares at an option price of $18 per share have also been
granted under the plan.  Options for 3,450 shares at an option price of $20 per
share have also been granted under the plan.  Through December 31, 1997, 3,450
options have been exercised, leaving 13,800 unexercised options.

       Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
                            Results of Operations
                                      
(a)  Financial Condition:

     Total assets at December 31, 1997, were $97,221,000, an increase of
$6,612,000 from total assets of $90,609,000 at September 30, 1997.  The most
significant increases in assets were in net loans receivable and interest
bearing deposits.  Total net loans receivable increased from $76,524,000 at
September 30, 1997 to $79,591,000 at December 31, 1997. Interest bearing
deposits increased from $1,773,000 at September 30, 1997 to $4,821,000 at
December 31, 1997.  Mortgage loans increased from $61,634,000 at September 30,
1997 to $64,320,000 at December 31, 1997.  Consumer loans increased from
$14,732,000 at September 30, 1997 to $15,094,000 at December 31, 1997.  The
increase in mortgage loans is attributed to a very strong local economy and
loan demand.  The two branches that were opened in 1995 have contributed over
$6,585,000 in mortgage and consumer lending.

     Total deposits at September 30, 1997 of $64,633,000 increased to
$70,784,000 at December 31, 1997.  This increase in deposits is primarily due
to an increase in certificates of deposit and checking accounts.

     Non-performing assets increased from $404,000 at September 30, 1997 to
$534,000 at December 31, 1997.  It is management's opinion that the bank's
allowance for possible loan losses is adequate to absorb any anticipated future
losses from loan at December 31, 1997.

(b)  Results of Operations:

     During the three month period ended December 31, 1997, net earnings
increased to $174,000 (basic EPS of $.99 per share) compared to net earnings of
$129,000 (basic EPS of $.73 per share) during the three month period ended
December 31, 1996.  The increase in earnings is primarily the result of an
increase in interest income on loans receivable in excess of the increase in
interest expense.

     Net interest income was $720,000, after provision for loan losses, for the
three months ended December 31, 1997, compared to $676,000 for the three months
ended December 31, 1996.  The interest rate margin for the three months ended
December 31, 1997 was 3.09%, compared to 3.36% for the same period one year
ago.

     Interest income increased from $1,603,000 for the three months ended
December 31, 1996 to $1,867,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1997.
Interest expense for the three month period ended December 31, 1997 was
$1,117,000 compared to $904,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1996.
This increase is primarily attributed to the increase in deposit accounts.

     Total non-interest income was $101,000 for the three months ended December
31, 1997, compared to $85,000 for the same period in 1996.


                                      
                                     -8-

       Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
                             Results of Operation
                                      
     Non-interest expense totaled $533,000 for the quarter ended December 31,
1997 compared to $545,000 for the same period in the prior year.  The primary
decrease in non-interest expense relates to cost cutting measures in most
expense categories.

(c)  Capital Resources and Liquidity

     The Corporation is subject to regulation as a savings and loan holding
company, and is subject to certain restrictions in its dealings with the Bank.
The Bank is subject to the regulatory requirements applicable to a federal
savings bank.

     Current capital regulations required savings institutions to have minimum
tangible capital equal to 1.5% to total assets and a core capital ratio equal
to 3% of total assets.  Additionally, savings institutions are required to meet
a risk based capital ratio equal to 8.0% for risk-weighted assets.  At December
31, 1997, the Bank satisfied its capital requirements.

     The following is a summary of the Bank's regulatory capital and capital
requirements at December 31, 1997 based on capital regulations currently in
effect for savings institutions.




                                    Tangible        Core           Risk-based

Excess Capital                      $4,368,000     $2,946,000      $  957,000

Regulatory Capital Ratio                  6.02%          6.02%           9.46%

     Liquidity measures the Bank's ability to meet its savings withdrawals and
lending commitments.  Management believes that the Bank's liquidity is adequate
to meet current requirements, such as the funding of $1,365,000 in loan
commitments as of December 31, 1997.  The Bank maintains liquidity of at least
4% of net withdrawable assets.  At December 31, 1997, its regulatory liquidity
ratio was 11.46%.

     A Year 2000 Committee has been established by the Corporation
consisting of officers and employees of the Corporation to address problems
which could arise from the forthcoming Year 2000 rollover.  The Committee is
charged with providing regular reports to the Board of Directors detailing
progress in this area.  Based on progress by the Committee to date, it is not
anticipated that the Year 2000 rollover will present material financial or
operational burdens for the Corporation.

current recommendations by regulatory authorities, that should have, or that
are reasonably likely to have a material effect on the liquidity, capital
resources, or operations of Shelby County Bancorp.
