              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1.  Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of business:

Iowa  First   Bancshares  Corp.  (the  "Company")  is  a  bank  holding  company
headquartered in Muscatine,  Iowa. The Company owns the outstanding stock of two
national banks, First National Bank of Muscatine  (Muscatine) and First National
Bank in Fairfield  (Fairfield).  First National Bank of Muscatine has a total of
five  locations in  Muscatine,  Iowa.  First  National Bank in Fairfield has two
locations in  Fairfield,  Iowa.  Each bank is engaged in the general  commercial
banking   business  and  provides  full  service   banking  to  individuals  and
businesses,  including checking, savings and other deposit accounts,  commercial
loans, consumer loans, real estate loans, safe deposit facilities,  transmitting
of funds,  trust  services,  and such other  banking  services  as are usual and
customary for commercial  banks. The Company also owns the outstanding  stock of
Iowa First Capital Trust I, which was  capitalized in March 2001 for the purpose
of issuing Company Obligated Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Securities.

Reclassifications:

Certain  amounts in the prior year financial  statments have been  reclassified,
with no effect on net income or  stockholders' equity,  to conform  with current
year presentations.

Note 2.  Capital Stock and Earnings Per Share

Common shares and preferred stock  authorized total 6,000,000 shares and 500,000
shares,  respectively.  Basic  earnings  per share is arrived at by dividing net
income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock  outstanding for
the respective period.  Diluted earnings per share is arrived at by dividing net
income  by the  weighted  average  number  of  common  stock  and  common  stock
equivalents  outstanding for the respective period. The average number of shares
of common  stock  outstanding  for the  first  six  months of 2001 and 2000 were
1,491,767 and 1,533,398, respectively. There were no common stock equivalents in
2001 or 2000.

                  IOWA FIRST BANCSHARES CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition

The  Company's  total assets at June 30, 2001,  were  $377,182,000.  Muscatine's
total assets were $273,584,000  which reflects a $7,370,000 (2.6%) decrease from
December 31, 2000, total assets.  Fairfield's  total assets were $100,285,000 at
June 30,  2001,  which is an increase  of  $1,352,000  (1.4%)  when  compared to
December 31, 2000,  total assets.  Total  consolidated  assets decreased by 0.8%
during the first six months of 2001. Compared to June 30, 2000,  however,  total
consolidated assets have increased $5,713,000 (1.5%).

Net  loans  totaled  $279,959,000  at June 30,  2001.  Net  loans  at  Muscatine
increased by $9,022,000 (4.5%) during the first six months.  Net loans increased
at Fairfield by $398,000  (0.6%) during the first six months.  Consolidated  net
loans increased by $9,420,000 (3.5%) year-to-date.

Total available for sale securities  decreased  $7,768,000  during the first six
months of 2001 while federal funds sold increased $175,000.  The Banks emphasize
purchase of securities  with maturities of five years and less as such purchases
offer reasonable yields with little credit risk as well as limited interest rate
risk.  Additionally,  selected  securities  with longer  maturities are owned in
order to enhance overall portfolio yield without significantly  increasing risk.
Securities  sold  during  the first six  months of the year of  $5,203,000  have
resulted in gains recognized totaling $99,000.

Total  deposits  at  June  30,  2001,  were  $269,946,000.   Deposits,   net  of
intercompany  deposits,  at Muscatine  decreased  $851,000 (0.4%) from the prior
year end.  Fairfield's total deposits  decreased  $683,000 (.8%) during the same
period.  This represents a combined deposit decrease of over $1.5 million (0.6%)
for the Company  during the first six months of 2001.  Additionally,  securities
sold under  agreements  to  repurchase  increased  $241,000 to $4.2  million and
advances borrowed from the Federal Home Loan Bank decreased  $7,656,000 to total
$63.9 million at quarter end.

On March 28,  2001,  the Company  issued  4,000 shares  totaling  $4,000,000  of
Company  Obligated  Mandatorily  Redeemable  Preferred  Securities of Iowa First
Capital  Trust I. The  securities  provide  for  cumulative  cash  distributions
calculated at a 10.18% annual rate. The Company may, at one or more times, defer
interest payments on the capital securities for up to 10 consecutive semi-annual
periods,  but not beyond June 8, 2036.  At the end of the deferral  period,  all
accumulated and unpaid  distributions  will be paid. The capital securities will
be redeemed on June 8, 2031; however,  the Company has the option to shorten the
maturity  date to a date not earlier  than June 8, 2011.  The  redemption  price
begins at 105.09% to par and is reduced 51 basis  points each year until June 8,
2021 when the capital  securities can be redeemed at par. Holders of the capital
securities have no voting rights, are unsecured,  and rank junior in priority of
payment to all of the Company's indebtedness and senior to the Company's capital
stock. For regulatory  purposes,  the entire amount of the capital securities is
allowed  in the  calculation  of Tier 1  capital.  The  capital  securities  are
included  in the  balance  sheet as a  liability  with  the  cash  distributions
included in interest expense.

Results of Operation

Consolidated net income was $827,000,  or $.56 per share, for the second quarter
of 2001.  This was  $189,000 or 18.6% less than the same  period last year.  Net
interest  income  declined from the second quarter of 2000 to the second quarter
of 2001 by $282,000 (9.4%), provision for loan losses increased $22,000 (18.8%),
securities  gains  increased  by  $38,000,  other  income  increased  by $91,000
(16.1%),  and operating  expenses  increased  $130,000 (6.7%). For the first six
months of 2001, net income was $1,679,000  which  represented  $221,000 or 11.6%
less than the same  period  last  year.  Net  income per share for the first six
months  of 2001 was  $1.13  which  represented  $.11 or 8.9% less than the prior
year.
<PAGE>

Management  had  expressed  concern  for  several  quarters as to the ability to
continue  increasing net interest income each successive  quarter.  Net interest
income did indeed  decline  during the first two  quarters  of 2001  compared to
2000.  The prime lending rate dropped a precipitous  275 basis points during the
first six months of 2001. This rapid,  substantial  decline in the prime lending
rate caused  short-term  downward pressure on the Company's net interest margin.
Additionally,   the  usage  of  wholesale  funding  sources,   while  mitigating
intermediate and long-term interest rate risk,  increases interest expense.  The
interest expense  associated with the debt incurred to purchase  treasury shares
and  the  interest  expense  related  to the  aforementioned  Company  Obligated
Mandatorily  Redeemable  Preferred  Securities  also  add  pressure  to the  net
interest  income.  Finally,  the intense  competition for all types of loans and
deposits limits the Company's pricing power when dealing with customers.

Provisions  for loan losses were  $139,000 and $178,000,  respectively,  for the
three and six months ended June 30,  2001.  This was $22,000 more than the first
quarter of 2000 and  $19,000  more than the first six  months of 2000.  Net loan
charge-offs  through June 30, 2001 totaled $263,000  compared to net charge-offs
of $61,000 for the first two quarters of 2000.

Nonaccrual  loans totaled  $599,000 at June 30, 2001,  only $9,000 more than the
end of the second quarter in 2000. Other real estate owned totaled  $176,000,  a
reduction  of $190,000  from a year ago,  and loans past due 90 days or more and
still accruing  totaled  $511,000 which was $216,000 more than at the end of the
second  quarter of 2000.  The reserve for loan losses of  $3,183,000  represents
1.1% of net loans and 248% of total nonaccrual  loans,  other real estate owned,
and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing.

The  efficiency  ratio,  defined  as  noninterest  expense  as a percent  of net
interest income plus noninterest  income,  was 61.2% for the first six months of
2001  compared to 59.5% for all of 2000.  The primary  reason for this change is
the reduced net interest income.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

The Company  manages its balance  sheet to minimize the impact of interest  rate
movements on its earnings.  The term "rate sensitive" refers to those assets and
liabilities  which are  "sensitive" to  fluctuations  in rates and yields.  When
interest  rates move,  earnings may be affected in many ways.  Interest rates on
assets and liabilities  may change at different  times or by different  amounts.
Maintaining a proper  balance  between rate  sensitive  earning  assets and rate
sensitive   liabilities  is  the  principal  function  of  asset  and  liability
management of a banking organization.

A positive  repricing gap for a given period exists when total  interest-earning
assets exceed total interest-bearing  liabilities and a negative gap exists when
total  interest-bearing  liabilities are in excess of  interest-earning  assets.
Generally a positive  repricing gap will result in increased net interest income
in a rising rate environment and decreased net interest income in a falling rate
environment.  A negative  repricing gap tends to produce  increased net interest
income in a falling rate  environment  and  decreased  net interest  income in a
rising rate environment.  At June 30, 2001, rate sensitive  liabilities exceeded
rate sensitive assets within a one year maturity range and, thus, the Company is
theoretically  positioned to benefit from a decline in interest rates within the
next year.  However,  over shorter periods of three to six months,  rising rates
tend to be more beneficial for the Company.

The Company's  repricing gap position is useful for measuring  general  relative
risk  levels.  However,  even with  perfectly  matched  repricing  of assets and
liabilities,  interest rate risk cannot be avoided entirely.  Interest rate risk
remains in the form of prepayment risk of assets and liabilities, timing lags in
adjusting  certain assets and  liabilities  that have varying  sensitivities  to
market interest rates, and basis risk. Basis risk refers to the possibility that
the repricing  behavior of variable-rate  assets could differ from the repricing
characteristics  of  liabilities  which  reprice in the same time  period.  Even
though  these  assets are  match-funded,  the spread  between  asset  yields and
funding costs could change.

Because the  repricing  gap position  does not capture  these risks,  Management
utilizes simulation modeling to measure and manage the rate sensitivity exposure
of earnings.  The Company's simulation model provides a projection of the effect
on net interest  income of various  interest  rate  scenarios  and balance sheet
strategies.

Liquidity

For  banks,  liquidity  represents  ability  to meet both loan  commitments  and
deposit withdrawals.  Factors which influence the need for liquidity are varied,
but include general economic  conditions,  asset/liability mix, bank reputation,
future  FDIC  funding  needs,  changes  in  regulatory  environment,  and credit
standing.  Assets which provide liquidity consist principally of loans, cash and
due from  banks,  investment  securities,  and  short-term  investments  such as
federal funds.  Maturities of securities  held for investment  purposes and loan
payments   provide  a  constant   flow  of  funds   available  for  cash  needs.
Additionally,  liquidity can be gained by the sale of loans or securities  prior
to maturity if such assets had previously been designated as available for sale.
Interest  rates,  relative to the rate paid by the security or loan sold,  along
with the maturity of the  security or loan,  are the major  determinates  of the
price which can be realized upon sale.

The  stability  of the  Company's  funding,  and  thus  its  ability  to  manage
liquidity,  is greatly enhanced by its consumer deposit base.  Consumer deposits
tend to be small in size,  diversified  across a large base of individuals,  and
are  government  insured to the extent  permitted by law. Total deposits at June
30, 2001, were $269,946,000 or 72% of total liabilities and equity.

Securities  available for sale with a cost totaling  $53,781,000  at quarter-end
included net  unrealized  gains of $1,509,000.  These  securities may be sold in
whole or in part to increase liquid assets, reposition the investment portfolio,
or for other purposes as defined by Management.

Capital

Stockholders'  equity  increased  $1,204,000  (5.6%) during the six months ended
June 30, 2001.

Federal regulatory agencies have adopted various capital standards for financial
institutions,  including risk-based capital standards. The primary objectives of
the  risk-based  capital  framework  are to  provide  a  consistent  system  for
comparing capital  positions of financial  institutions and to take into account
the  different   inherent  risks  among  financial   institutions'   assets  and
off-balance-sheet items.

Risk-based  capital  standards have been  supplemented  with  requirements for a
minimum Tier 1 capital to assets ratio (leverage ratio). In addition, regulatory
agencies consider the published capital levels as minimum levels and may require
a Financial Institution to maintain capital at higher levels.

A comparison of the Company's  capital as of June 30, 2001 with the requirements
to be considered adequately capitalized is presented below.

                                                                  For Capital
                                                      Actual   Adequacy Purposes
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tier 1 risk-based capital .....................       10.22%        4.00%
Total risk-based capital ......................       11.41%        8.00%
Tier 1 leverage ratio .........................        7.25%        4.00%

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The financial statements and related data presented herein have been prepared in
accordance  with generally  accepted  accounting  principles,  which require the
measurement of financial  position and operating  results in terms of historical
dollars without  considering  changes in the relative  purchasing power of money
over time due to inflation.  Unlike most industrial companies,  virtually all of
the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature.

As a result,  interest  rates  have a more  significant  impact  on a  financial
institution's  performance  than the  effects  of general  levels of  inflation.
Interest  rates do not  necessarily  move in the same  direction  or in the same
magnitude  as the price of goods and  services.  In the  current  interest  rate
environment,  liquidity and the maturity  structure of the Company's  assets and
liabilities are critical to the maintenance of acceptable performance levels.

Trends, Events or Uncertainties

Officers  and  Directors of the Company and its  subsidiaries  have had, and may
have in the future,  banking  transactions in the ordinary course of business of
the Company's subsidiaries.  All such transactions are on substantially the same
terms, including interest rates on loans and collateral,  as those prevailing at
the time for comparable  transactions  with others,  involve no more than normal
risk of collectibility, and present no other unfavorable features.

In the normal  course of  business,  the Banks are  involved  in  various  legal
proceedings.  In the current opinion of management, any liability resulting from
such  proceedings  would not have a material  effect on the Company's  financial
statements.

The Company has in the past and anticipates continuing to purchase shares of its
outstanding common stock for the treasury as they become available.
