                         NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED
                              FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)


NOTE A - PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements
contain all adjustments consisting of normal re-occurring items necessary to
present fairly the financial condition of the company as of June 30, 1997 and
the results of operations and cash flows for the six month periods ended June
30, 1997 and June 30, 1996.

NOTE B - TAXES

The effective tax rate of 31% is considerably lower than the statutory 35%
because of investments made in tax exempt municipal securities. The subsidiaries
of Security Banc Corporation have approximately $20,607,000.00 invested in tax
exempt municipal securities.


NOTE C - FASB Statement No. 128

In February, 1997, The Financial Accounting Standards board issued Statement No.
128, "Earnings per Share," ("SFAS 128") which is required to be adopted on
December 31, 1997. The Company has not yet determined what the impact of SFAS
128 will be on the calculation of fully diluted earnings per share.

PART 1  ITEM 2

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

The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant
factors which have affected the Registrant's financial condition and results of
operations during the periods included in the consolidated financial statements
enclosed with this filing.

ACQUISITIONS

On September 30, 1996, CitNat Bancorp merged with and into Security Bancorp
(Company) and shares of the Company's common stock was issued in exchange for
all of the common stock of CitNat. The merger was accounted for as a pooling of
interest, and accordingly, the accompanying financial statements have been
restated to include the accounts and operations of CitNat for all periods prior
to the merger.

On October 21, 1996, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Third
Financial Corporation for $41 million. The acquisition was funded with existing
cash. The results of Third Financial Corporation's operations have been combined
with those of the Company since the date of acquisition.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net income was $7,000,000 for the first six months of 1997, compared to
$6,638,000 for the same period in 1996. Earnings per share were $1.16 for the
first six months, a 5% increase over last year's $1.10.

Total assets were $838,251,000 at June 30, 1997 compared to 1996's assets of
$662,936,000. For the first six months of 1997, return on average equity was
13.74% and return on average assets was 1.69%.

Net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis for the first six months
of 1997 was $19,012,000 compared to the $16,280,000 realized in the same period
of 1996.

The allowance for loan losses was $6,852,000 in the first six months of 1997 and
$5,609,000 in the first six months of 1996. The allowance for losses as a
percent of loans and leases outstanding was 1.23% at June 30, 1997 and l.38% at
June 30, 1996.

Beginning in 1995, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board
Statement No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan". Under the
new standard, the allowance for credit losses related to loans that are
identified for evaluation in accordance with Statement 114 is based on
discounted cash flows using the loan's initial effective interest rate or the
fair value of the collateral for certain collateral dependent loans. Prior to
1995, the allowance for credit losses related to these loans was based on
undiscounted cash flows or the fair value of the collateral for collateral
dependent loans. The following table presents data concerning loans at risk at
the end of each period. (000s).

Total other operating income was $3,200,000 and $3,027,000 during the first six
months of 1997 and 1996 respectively. Trust income increased 14%. There was a 2%
increase in service charges on deposits, and a 43% increase in other charges,
rents and fees. Total securities gains for the first six months of 1997 were
$106,000 or $69,000 after tax. Total securities gains for the same period of
1996 were $358,000 or $233,000 after tax.

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS  (CONTINUED)

Total operating expenses increased during the first three months, 28% over the
similar period of 1996. Salaries, wages and employee benefits increased 22% over
1996. Equipment and net occupancy expenses during the first six months were
$1,364,000 and $1,170.000 for 1997 and 1996 respectively, which reflects a 17%
increase. Other operating expenses increased 40% over 1996.
