Sky Financial Group, Inc. (Sky Financial) is a financial holding company headquartered in Bowling Green, Ohio, that owns and operates Sky Bank which is primarily engaged in the commercial and consumer banking business
in Ohio, southern Michigan, western Pennsylvania, northern West Virginia and eastern Indiana. Sky Financial also operates businesses relating to insurance, trust and other related financial services.



The accounting and reporting policies followed by Sky Financial conform in all material
respects to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) and to general practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The allowance

New Accounting Pronouncements



On March 9, 2004, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 105, Application of
Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments (SAB 105). This bulletin was issued to inform registrants of the SECs view that the fair value of the recorded loan commitments, that are required to follow derivative accounting under FAS 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, should not consider the expected future cash flows related to the associated servicing of the future loan. The provisions of SAB 105 must be applied to loan commitments accounted for as
derivatives that are entered into after March 31, 2004. The adoption of this Staff Accounting Bulletin in the second quarter of 2004 did not have a material impact on Sky Financial.



In March 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ratified the consensus reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force in Issue 03-1,
The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments (EITF 03-1). EITF 03-1 provides guidance for determining when an investment is considered impaired, whether impairment is other-than-temporary, and
measurement of an impairment loss. An investment is considered impaired if the fair value of the investment is less than its cost. Generally, an impairment is considered other-than-temporary unless: (a) the investor has the ability and intent to
hold an investment for a reasonable period of time sufficient for a forecasted recovery of fair value up to (or beyond) the cost of the investment; and (b) evidence indicating that the cost of the investment is recoverable within a reasonable period
of time outweighs evidence to the contrary. If impairment is determined to be other-than-temporary, then an impairment loss should be recognized equal to the difference between the investments cost

and its fair value. EITF 03-1 is effective for Sky Financial in the third quarter of 2004. Gross unrealized losses on available for sale securities was
$66,530 at June 30, 2004. Sky Financial is continuing to evaluate the impact of EITF 03-1. The amount of other than temporary impairment to be recognized, if any, will be dependent on market conditions and managements intent and ability at the
time of the evaluation to hold underwater investments until a forecasted recovery in the fair value up to and beyond the adjusted cost.



In December 2003, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued AICPA Statement of Position No. 03-3,
Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer (SOP 03-3), to address accounting for differences between the contractual cash flows of certain loans and debt securities and the cash flows expected to be collected
when loans or debt securities are acquired in a transfer and those cash flow differences are attributable, at least in part, to credit quality. As such, SOP 03-3 applies to such loans and debt securities acquired in purchase business combinations
and does not apply to originated loans. The application of SOP 03-3 limits the interest income, including accretion of purchase price discounts, that may be recognized for certain loans and debt securities. Additionally, SOP 03-3 requires that the
excess of contractual cash flows over cash flows expected to be collected (nonaccretable difference) not be recognized as an adjustment of yield or valuation allowance, such as the allowance for loan and lease losses. Subsequent to the initial
investment, increases in expected cash flows generally should be recognized prospectively through adjustment of the yield on the loan or debt security over its remaining life. Decreases in expected cash flows should be recognized as impairment. SOP
03-3 is effective for loans and debt securities acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004, with early application encouraged. The impact of this new pronouncement is not expected to be material to Sky Financials financial
condition, results of operations, or cash flows.



|2. | Stock Based Compensation
|-- | ------------------------



Sky Financial applies Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 in accounting for stock options and discloses the fair value of options granted as permitted by SFAS No.
123. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the common stock at date of grant.



The following table summarizes the pro forma effects assuming compensation cost for such
awards had been recorded based upon the estimated fair value (in thousands, except per share data):

|3. | Critical Accounting Policies
|-- | ----------------------------



The accounting and reporting policies of Sky Financial are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted within the United States of America and conform to
general practices within the financial services industry. Accounting and reporting policies for the allowance for credit losses and mortgage servicing rights are deemed critical since they involve the use of estimates and require significant
management judgments. Application of assumptions different than those used by management could result in material changes in Sky Financials financial position or results of operations. Note 1 (Summary of Significant Accounting Policies), note
4 (Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses) and note 20 (Mortgage Banking Activity), of the 2003 Annual Report and Form 10-K, provide detail with regard to the Corporations accounting for the allowance for loan losses and for mortgage servicing
rights. There have been no significant changes in the application of accounting policies since December 31, 2003.



|4. | Mergers, Acquisitions and Divestitures
|-- | --------------------------------------

On October 19, 2003, Sky Financial acquired GLB
Bancorp, Inc. (GLB), a $225 million bank holding company headquartered in Mentor, OH, and its wholly-owned subsidiary Great Lakes Bank, by acquiring all of the outstanding capital stock of GLB for an aggregate purchase price of $43,263 including

The amount of junior subordinated
debentures owed to unconsolidated subsidiary trusts represent the par value adjusted for any unamortized discount or other basis adjustments related to hedging the debt with derivative instruments. These hedging relationships exchange the fixed
interest rate on the borrowings to a variable rate based on LIBOR plus a spread, resulting in a lower effective rate paid on the borrowings. See Note 13 for further discussion of derivative instruments.

|9. | Earnings Per Share
|-- | ------------------



Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares
determined for the basic computation plus the dilutive effect of potential common shares issuable under stock options. For the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, 1,402 and 2,260 weighted average shares, respectively, under option were
excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as they were anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, 50 and 1,430 weighted average shares, respectively, under option were excluded from the diluted earnings per share
calculation as they were anti-dilutive.

|10. | Capital Resources
|--- | -----------------



The Federal Reserve Board (FRB) has established risk-based capital guidelines that must be observed by financial holding companies and banks. Failure to meet specified minimum capital requirements can result in
certain mandatory actions by primary regulators of Sky Financial and its bank subsidiary that could have a material effect on Sky Financials financial condition or results of operations. Under capital adequacy guidelines, Sky Financial and its
bank subsidiary must meet specific quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as determined under regulatory accounting practices. Sky Financials and its banks capital amounts and
classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Management believes, as of June 30, 2004, that Sky Financial and its bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which
they are subject.

Sky Financial and its bank have been notified by their respective regulators that, as of the most recent regulatory
examinations, each is regarded as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. Such determinations have been made evaluating Sky Financial and its bank under Tier I, total capital, and leverage ratios. There are no
conditions or events since these notifications that management believes have changed any of the well capitalized categorizations of Sky Financial and its bank subsidiary. Sky Financials and Sky Banks capital ratios are presented in the
following table:

|12. | Line of Business Reporting
|--- | --------------------------



Sky Financial manages and operates two major lines of business: community banking and financial services. Community banking includes lending and related services to
businesses and consumers, mortgage banking and deposit-gathering. Other financial services consists of non-banking companies engaged in trust and wealth management, insurance and other financial-related services.



The reported line of business results reflect the underlying core operating performance
within the business units. Parent and Other is comprised of the parent company and several smaller business units. It includes the net funding cost of the parent company and intercompany eliminations. Expenses for centrally provided services and
support are fully allocated based principally upon estimated usage of services. All merger, integration and restructuring charges company-wide are included in Parent and Other. Substantially all of Sky Financials assets are part of the
community banking line of business.

|13. | Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
|--- | ---------------------------------------------



Sky Financials hedging policies permit the use of interest rate swaps, caps and floors to manage interest rate risk or to hedge specified assets and liabilities.



Fair Value Hedges



Sky Financial uses interest rate swap agreements to hedge a portion of its fixed rate
borrowings. The interest rate swaps effectively convert the fixed rate of interest on $108,600 of the junior subordinated debentures owed to unconsolidated subsidiary trusts and $215,000 of advances to the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati to
variable rate based on LIBOR plus a spread as defined in the agreements. The interest rate swaps involve no exchange of principal either at inception or maturity and have maturities and call options identical to the trust preferred security
agreements. The arrangements have been designated as fair value hedges and both the change in the fair value of the hedges and the hedged transactions are reflected in earnings. Because the hedging arrangement is considered highly effective, changes
in the interest rate swaps fair values exactly offset the corresponding changes in the fair value of the junior subordinated debentures and FHLB advances and, as a result, the changes in the fair value do not result in an impact on net income.



Cash Flow Hedges



Sky Financial has entered into amortizing interest rate swaps to fix the rate on its $40,000
of variable rate advances with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati. Under the terms of the arrangements, Sky Financial pays a fixed rate of interest and receives a variable rate based on LIBOR. The swaps are considered to be highly effective.
Accordingly, any change in the swaps fair value is recorded in other comprehensive income, net of tax.



Interest Rate Caps



During 2002, Sky Financial entered into two interest rate cap arrangements, and paid $1,456 to hedge its interest risk on $48.6 million of federal funds purchased. The
interest rate caps are designed to offset the impact of changes in the federal funds purchased rate above the weighted average stated rate of 5.90%, and, as such, are considered to be highly effective. Any changes in the intrinsic values are
recorded in other

comprehensive income. Changes in the time value of the interest rate caps, which are excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness, increased interest
expense by $110 in the first half of 2004 and 2003. No deferred gains or losses in accumulated other comprehensive income at June 30, 2004 are expected to be reclassified to earnings in 2004.

transactions at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003:

Sky Financial recorded merger,
integration and restructuring expense during the first quarter of 2004 associated with the sale of Sky Financial Solutions.



|15. | Commitments and Contingencies
|--- | -----------------------------



Sky Financial is involved in litigation with three insurance companies who issued surety bonds or insurance policies as security for four related loans aggregating
$26,600. The subject loans are secured by pools of commercial leases, the payments under which are guaranteed by the surety bonds. Sky Financial is engaged in litigation with these insurance companies to enforce the payment obligations, as are a
number of other banks nationwide. After consultation with legal counsel, management believes that the credits are well secured and the prospects for recovery of all principal and interest are good. The entire portfolio has been placed on non-accrual
status pending outcome of the litigation.



A schedule of significant
commitments at June 30, 2004 follows:



|                             |  |   |          
|---------------------------- |  | - | ---------
|Commitments to extend credit |  | $ | 2,577,706
|Standby letters of credit    |  |   | 324,743  
|Letters of credit            |  |   | 2,184    



The Sky Financial Solutions sales
agreement contains a contingency based upon future charge-offs between Sky Financial and the acquirer that may result in an adjustment to increase or decrease the sales price in future periods. Based on historical experience and expected future
performance, management does not believe that this provision will have a significant impact on future earnings, cash flows, or financial position.

Results of Operations



Diluted earnings per common share for the second quarter of 2004 was $.43 ($.43 basic), compared to $.42 ($.42 basic) for the same period in 2003. Net income for the
second quarter of 2004 was $40,201, an increase of $2,692 over the second quarter of 2003 net income of $37,509. Return on average equity (ROE) and return on average assets (ROA) were 15.25% and 1.33%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2004,

common share from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2004 was $.43 ($.43 basic), as compared to $.41 ($.41 basic) for the same period in 2003. Income from continuing operations for the second quarter of 2004 was $40,201, an increase of
$3,379 over the second quarter of 2003 net income from continuing operations of $36,822. Sky Financials net income from continuing operations during the second quarter of 2004 includes the results of Metropolitan, which was acquired in May
2003 and GLB, which was acquired in October 2003. The results of second quarter of 2003 were impacted by merger, integration and restructuring expenses of $3,486 ($2,265 after-tax), which impacted diluted earnings per share by $.03. ROE and ROA on a
continuing operations basis were 15.25% and 1.33%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2004, compared to 16.47% and 1.29%, respectively, in 2003.



Business Line Results



Sky Financials two major lines of business include community banking and financial services. Community banking includes lending and related services to businesses and consumers, mortgage banking and
deposit-gathering. Financial services consists of non-banking companies engaged in trust and wealth management, insurance and other financial-related services. Sky Financials business line results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2004 and
2003 are summarized in the table below.



|                              |  |                   |        |      |   |        |

The lower community banking net income
in the second quarter of 2004 as compared to the same period of the previous year is mainly due to lower mortgage banking income, offset by the net positive impact from acquisitions. The second quarter 2004 reflects higher net interest income,
service charges and fees on deposits and gains on sale of securities. These increases were more than offset by a decrease in mortgage banking income and an increase in employee expenses and other operating expenses. The efficiency ratio for the
community banking segment was 49.92% for the second quarter of 2004 compared to 50.10% in the second quarter of 2003. The 2004 community banking results reflect a ROE of 15.48% and a ROA of 1.26% compared to 17.63% and 1.34%, respectively, in the
second quarter of 2003.



The financial service affiliates net income
increased as compared to 2003 from growth in brokerage and insurance commissions as a result of increased sales and acquisitions.



Parent and other includes the net funding costs of the parent company and intercompany billings to other affiliates for shared services. The increase in net income for
parent and other is due to decreased merger,

integration and restructuring charges and a lower effective rate on income taxes during the second quarter of 2004 as compared to the same period in the
previous year.



Net Interest Income



Net interest income for the second quarter of 2004 was $102,687, an increase of $5,666 or
5.8% from $97,021 in the second quarter of 2003. Net interest income, the difference between interest income earned on interest-earning assets and interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities, is the most significant component of Sky
Financials earnings. Net interest income is affected by changes in the volumes, rates and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Average earning assets increased 5.2% from the second quarter last year, with
strong growth in average loans, increasing 6.6% from last year, which included organic growth of 3.3% and the impact of Metropolitan and Great Lakes. Average deposits were up 4.3% from the same quarter last year, however, decreased 1.7% when
excluding the impact of Great Lakes and Metropolitan. Sky Financials net interest margin for the three months ended June 30, 2004 was 3.69%, consistent with last quarter and an increase of 3 basis points from second quarter a year ago. The
higher net interest margin primarily reflects the improvements in funding mix and pricing, despite the lower rate environment versus last year.

losses increased $2,695 or 32.4% to $11,020 in the second quarter of 2004 compared to $8,325 in the second quarter of 2003. The higher provision for credit
losses in the second quarter of 2004 was due to higher net charge-offs and strong growth in the loan portfolio. Net charge-offs were $10,402 or 0.48% (annualized) of average loans during the three months ended June 30, 2004, compared to $7,075 or
0.35% (annualized) for the same period in 2003.

Non-Interest Income



The change in non-interest income reflects an increase in securities gains, the impact of acquisitions and the emphasis of Sky Financial on expanding its profitable fee-based businesses offset by a decrease in
mortgage banking revenues. Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2004 was $49,609, an increase of $2,526 or 5.4% from $47,083 for the same quarter of 2003. Brokerage and insurance commissions revenues of $13,451 during the second quarter of
2004, represented an increase of $2,636 or 24.4% from the same period in 2003, reflecting growth from both acquisitions and increased sales. Service charges for the second quarter of 2004 were $11,107, up $1,618 or 17.1% from the second quarter of
2003 primarily due to deposit growth from acquisitions. Other income increased to $11,194 in the second quarter of 2004, up from $9,160 in the same quarter last year due to gains on the sales of SBA and other commercial loans. For the second quarter
of 2004, securities gains were $2,877, an increase of $2,794 from the same period last year. Mortgage banking income was $6,879 during the second quarter of 2004, a decrease of $7,005 or 50.5%, due primarily to a decrease in loan originations as
compared to the same period of 2003.



Non-Interest Expense



The change in non-interest expense is primarily attributed to additional costs as a
result of the Metropolitan and Great Lakes acquisitions partially offset by a decrease in merger, integration and restructuring charges. Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2004 was $82,298, an increase of $2,177 or 2.7%, from $80,121
reported for the same quarter of 2003. Salary and other employee costs were $43,740, up $2,657 or 6.5% as compared to the second quarter of 2003 due to an increase in full time equivalent employees, mostly from acquisitions. Occupancy and equipment
costs were $13,436, up $1,546 or 13.0% compared to the same period of 2003 and other operating expenses were $25,122, up $1,460 or 6.2% as compared to the second quarter of 2003, both due primarily to acquisitions. Merger, integration and
restructuring charges were recognized in the second quarter of 2003 due to the acquisition of Metropolitan. The efficiency ratio was 53.75% for the second quarter of 2004, down from 55.8% for the same quarter last year.



Income Taxes



The provision for income taxes for the second quarter of 2004 decreased $59 to $18,777 from $18,836 for the same period in 2003. The
effective tax rate decreased to 31.8% in the second quarter of 2004 as compared to 33.8% for the same period in 2003. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the resolution of certain tax contingencies in conjunction with the
completion of various audits of previous open tax years by the Internal Revenue Service.

The higher community banking net
income in the first half of 2004 as compared to the same period of the previous year is mainly due to acquisitions completed during the last year. As a result, the first half of 2004 reflects higher net interest income, service charges and fees on
deposits and gains on sale of securities. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in mortgage banking income and an increase in employee expenses and other operating expenses. The efficiency ratio for the community banking segment was
51.05% for the first half of 2004 compared to 49.45% in the first half of 2003. The 2004 community banking results reflect a ROE of 15.18% and a ROA of 1.24% compared to 18.09% and 1.36%, respectively, in the first half of 2003.



The financial service affiliates net income increased as compared to 2003 from growth
in brokerage and insurance commissions as a result of increased sales and acquisitions.

##### Table of Contents

Parent and other includes the net funding costs of the parent company and intercompany billings to other affiliates for
shared services. The increase in net income for parent and other is due to decreased merger, integration and restructuring charges and a lower effective rate on income taxes during the second quarter of 2004 as compared to the same period in the
previous year.



Net Interest Income



Net interest income for the first half of 2004 was $204,490, an increase of $17,099 or 9.1%
from $187,391 in the first half of 2003. Net interest income, the difference between interest income earned on interest-earning assets and interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities, is the most significant component of Sky
Financials earnings. Net interest income is affected by changes in the volumes, rates and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Average earning assets increased 9.8% from the first half of last year, with
strong growth in average loans, increasing 11.9% from last year, which included organic growth of 2.5% and the addition of Metropolitan and Great Lakes. Average deposits were up 7.8% from the same period last year. Sky Financials net interest
margin for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was 3.69%, a decrease of 4 basis point from last year. The lower net interest margin primarily reflects the impact of the extended low rate environment and the incremental effect of the acquisitions.

Provision for Credit Losses



The provision for credit losses represents the charge to income necessary
to adjust the allowance for loan losses to an amount that represents managements assessment of the estimated probable credit losses inherent in Sky Financials loan portfolio which have been incurred at each balance sheet date. The
provision for credit

losses increased $1,860 or 11.8% to $17,685 in the first half of 2004 compared to $15,825 in the first half of 2003. The higher provision for credit losses
in the second quarter of 2004 was due to higher net charge-offs and strong growth in the loan portfolio. Net charge-offs were $16,968 or 0.39% (annualized) of average loans during the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared to $14,327 or 0.37%
(annualized) for the same period in 2003.



See section titled
Non-Performing Assets of managements discussion and analysis regarding $26,600 of non-performing loans backed by sureties.



Non-Interest Income



The change in non-interest income reflects the impact of acquisitions and the emphasis of Sky Financial on expanding its profitable fee-based businesses offset by a decrease in mortgage banking revenues. Non-interest
income for the first half of 2004 was $93,018, an increase of $6,149 or 7.1% from $86,869 for the first half of 2003. Non-interest income growth was most significant in brokerage and insurance commissions, with revenues of $27,759 during the first
half of 2004, an increase of $6,353 or 29.7% from the same period in 2003, reflecting growth from both acquisitions and increased sales. Service charges for the first half of 2004 were $20,749, up $2,655 or 14.7% from the first half of 2003
primarily due to deposit growth from acquisitions. Other income increased to $19,575 in the first half of 2004 , up from $16,576 for the same period of 2003 due to gains on the sales of SBA and other commercial loans. For the first half of 2004,
securities gains were $4,405, an increase of $3,845 from the same period last year. Mortgage banking income was $12,324 during the first half of 2004, a decrease of $10,918 or 46.7%, due primarily to a decrease in loan originations as compared to
the same period of 2003.



Non-Interest Expense



The change in non-interest expense is primarily attributed to additional costs as a result
of the Metropolitan and Great Lakes acquisitions, partially offset by lower merger, integration and restructuring expenses. Non-interest expense for the first half of 2004 was $160,801, an increase of $12,109 or 8.1%, from $148,692 reported for the
same period of 2003. Salary and other employee costs were $87,938, up $8,465 or 10.7% as compared to the first half of 2003 due to an increase in full time equivalent employees, mostly from acquisitions. Occupancy and equipment costs were $26,310,
up $2,584 or 10.9% compared to the same period of 2003 and other operating expenses were $42,357, up $3,474 or 8.9% as compared to the first half of 2003, both due primarily to acquisitions. Merger, integration and restructuring charges of $346 were
recognized in the first half of 2004 due to the sale of Sky Financial Solutions as compared to $3,486 recognized in the same period of 2003 due to the acquisition of Metropolitan. The efficiency ratio was 53.75% for the first half of 2004, down from
53.91% for the same period last year.



Income Taxes



The provision for income taxes for the first half of 2004 increased $1,781 to $38,869 from
$37,088 for the same period in 2003. The effective tax rate decreased to 32.6% for the first half of 2004 as compared to 33.8% for the same period in 2003. The decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the resolution of certain tax
contingencies in conjunction with the completion of various audits of previous open tax years by the Internal Revenue Service.



Balance Sheet



At June 30, 2004, total assets were $12,241,883, a decrease of $704,312 from December 31, 2003. This decrease was primarily attributable to the sale of Sky Financial Solutions, which had assets of $874,765 at December
31, 2003. Assets from continuing operations increased $170,453 from December 31, 2003, due primarily to an increase in loans of $150,374, an increase in securities available for sale of $30,318 due to investment purchases, an increase in goodwill of
$12,463 due to the purchase of Spenser-Patterson and EOB, Inc. and an increase in other assets of $24,553, due to net changes in interest receivable and various other asset accounts. The increases were partially offset by a decrease in cash and
interest bearing deposits of $23,817

and loans held for sale of $12,228. The change in loans includes a decrease in portfolio loans of $115,975 at Sky Bank that were sold with Sky Financial
Solutions. After excluding these portfolio loans, the loan balance grew organically by $266,349. The decrease in loans held for sale is due to lower mortgage origination volumes.



The net growth in assets was funded primarily by growth in total deposits, up $266,668, due primarily to organic growth. Debt decreased
$189,233, due to the payoff of the line of credit and a junior subordinated debenture owed to an unconsolidated subsidiary trust as well as payments on repurchase agreements and federal funds purchased, offset by an increase in borrowings on FHLB
advances.



Shareholders equity totaled $1,040,208 at June 30, 2004,
increasing $41,632 from December 31, 2003. Common stock increased $24,955, mainly due to $7,637 of stock issued to Spencer-Patterson shareholders, $4,558 of stock issued to EOB, Inc. shareholders and $12,760 of shares issued for stock from option
exercises. Net retained earnings (net income less cash dividends) for the six months ended June 30, 2004 totaled $59,728. Accumulated other comprehensive income decreased by $43,050, primarily due to a decrease in the market value of securities
available for sale.

Performing loans where some concerns
exist as to the ability of the borrower to comply with present loan repayment terms, excluding non-performing loans, approximated $92,247 and $98,312 at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, and are being closely monitored by management
and the Boards of Directors of the subsidiaries. The amount included in these loans results from an evaluation, on a loan-by-loan basis, of loans classified as doubtful and substandard but are not included in the
non-performing loan category. The classification of these loans, however, does not imply that management expects losses on each of these loans, but believes that a higher level of scrutiny is prudent under the circumstances. These loans require
close monitoring despite the fact that they are currently performing. Such classifications relate to specific concerns relating to each individual borrower and do not relate to any concentrated risk elements common to all loans in this group.

Included in non-accrual loans at June 30, 2004 are $26,600 of loans that are secured by pools of commercial leases for
which payment is over 90 days past due. These loans are guaranteed by surety bonds or insurance policies. Sky Financial is engaged in litigation with the insurance companies to enforce their payment obligations, as are a number of other banks
nationwide. After consultation with its counsel as to the strength of its position, Sky believes that the credits are well secured and the prospects for recovery of all principal and interest are good.

Sky Financial maintains an allowance
for credit losses at a level adequate to absorb managements estimate of probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance is comprised of a general allowance, a specific allowance for identified problem loans and an unallocated
allowance.



The general allowance is determined by applying estimated loss
factors to the credit exposures from outstanding loans. For construction, commercial and commercial real estate loans, loss factors are applied based on internal risk grades of these loans. For residential real estate, installment, credit card and
other loans, loss factors are applied on a portfolio basis. Loss factors are based on Sky Financials historical loss experience and are reviewed for revision on a quarterly basis, along with other factors affecting the collectibility of the
loan portfolio.



Specific allowances are established for all criticized and
classified loans, where management has determined that, due to identified significant conditions, the probability that a loss has been incurred exceeds the general allowance loss factor determination for those loans.



The unallocated allowance recognizes the estimation risk associated with the allocated
general and specific allowances and incorporates managements evaluation of existing conditions that are not included in the

allocated allowance determinations. These conditions are reviewed quarterly by management and include general economic conditions, macro credit quality
trends, and internal loan review and regulatory examination findings. The following table sets forth Sky Financials allocation of the allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003.

Discontinued Operations



Net income from discontinued operations was $18,725 during the first half
of 2004 versus $923 during the same period in 2003 due primarily to the after-tax gain of $19,876 recognized from the sale of Sky Financial Solutions. The Sky Financial Solutions sales agreement contains a contingency based upon future charge-offs
between Sky Financial and the acquirer that may result in an adjustment to increase or decrease the sales price in future periods. Based on historical experience and expected future performance, management does not believe that this provision will
have a significant impact on future earnings, cash flows, or financial position.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



Management of liquidity is of
growing importance to the banking industry. The liquidity of a financial institution reflects its ability to meet loan requests, to accommodate possible outflows in deposits and to take advantage of interest rate market opportunities. The ability of
a financial institution to meet its current financial obligations is a function of balance sheet structure, the ability to liquidate assets, and the availability of alternative sources of funds. To meet the needs of the clients and to manage the
risk of the bank, financial institutions have developed innovative ways to meet clients needs while at the same time manage both liquidity and interest rate risk. This is being done through liquidity management and the balance of deposit growth and
alternative sources of borrowing.



In addition to maintaining a stable core
deposit base, Sky Financials banking subsidiary maintains adequate liquidity primarily through the use of investment securities and unused borrowing capacity. At June 30, 2004 securities and other short term investments with maturities of one
year or less totaled $13,331. In addition, the mortgage-backed securities provide an estimated cash flow of approximately $472,000 over a twelve-month timeframe. The banking subsidiary is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB). The FHLB
provides a reliable source of funds over and above retail deposits. As of June 30, 2004, the banking subsidiary had total credit availability with the FHLB of $1,221,487, of which it had outstanding borrowings of $1,124,604.



During 2004, Sky Financial renegotiated an agreement with non-affiliated financial
institutions which enabled Sky Financial to borrow up to $100,000 through May 30, 2005. There were no borrowings under this agreement at June 30, 2004.



Sky Financial enters into derivative contracts under which it is required to either receive cash or pay cash to counterparties depending on changes in interest rates.
Derivative contracts are carried at their fair value on the consolidated balance sheet with the fair value representing the net present value of expected future cash receipts or payments based on market interest rates as of the balance sheet date.
The contracts are primarily interest rate swaps and cash is settled quarterly.

|Letters of credit            |  |   | 2,184    



Sky Financial currently does not have
an authorization from the Board of Directors to repurchase shares.



Since Sky
Financial is a holding company and does not conduct operations, its primary sources of liquidity are dividends paid to it by its banking subsidiary and borrowings from outside sources. For the banking subsidiary, regulatory approval is required in
order to pay dividends in excess of the subsidiarys earnings retained for the current year plus retained net profits for the prior two years. As a result of these restrictions, dividends that could be paid to Sky Financial by its bank
subsidiary, without prior regulatory approval, were limited to $53,605 at June 30, 2004.



Asset/Liability Management



Closely
related to liquidity management is the management of interest rate risk. Sky Financial manages its rate sensitivity position to avoid wide swings in its net interest margin due to changes in market rates. At June 30, 2004, Sky Financials gap
position, the difference between the dollar value of interest rate sensitive assets and interest rate sensitive liabilities, was positive for six months and one year and remained within Sky Financials Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO)
guidelines. Therefore Sky Financial does not expect to experience any significant fluctuations in its net interest margin as a consequence of changes in market rates. See also Item 3, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market
Risk.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002



On July 30, 2002, President Bush
signed into law the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which contains important new requirements for public companies in the area of financial disclosure, internal controls and corporate governance. We do not anticipate any significant changes in the
operations of and reporting by Sky Financial as a result of the Act. In accordance with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, written certifications for this quarterly report on Form 10-Q by the chief executive officer and the chief financial
officer accompany this report as filed with the SEC. See Controls and Procedures for Sky Financials evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------



Market risk is the risk that a financial institutions earnings and capital, or its ability to meet its business objectives, will be adversely affected by movements
in market rates or prices such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity prices, credit spreads and/or commodity prices. Within Sky Financial, the dominant market risk exposure is changes in interest rates. The negative effect of this
exposure is felt through the net interest margin, mortgage banking revenues and the market value of various assets and liabilities.



Sky Financial manages market risk through its Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO) at the consolidated level. This committee monitors interest rate risk through sensitivity
analysis, whereby it measures potential changes in future earnings and the fair market values of financial instruments that may result from one or more hypothetical changes in interest rates. This analysis is performed by estimating the expected
cash flows of Sky Financials financial instruments using interest rates in effect at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003. For the fair value estimates, the cash flows are then discounted to year end to arrive at an estimated present value of
Sky Financials financial instruments. Hypothetical changes in interest rates are then applied to the financial instruments, and the cash flows and fair values are again estimated using these hypothetical rates. For the net interest income
estimates, the hypothetical rates are applied to the financial instruments based on the assumed cash flows. Sky Financial applied these interest rate shocks to its financial instruments up 300, 200 and 100 basis points and down 100 basis points.
Down 300 and 200 basis points were not measured due to the low probability of such a decline.



The following table presents the potential ratio of Sky Financials interest rate sensitive assets (i.e. assets that will mature or reprice within a specific time period) divided by its interest rate sensitive
liabilities (i.e. liabilities that will mature or reprice within a specific time period), commonly referred to as the interest rate sensitivity gap or gap, over a six-month time period and a twelve-month time period.

The projected volatility of net
interest income and the economic value of equity at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003 fall within the ALCO guidelines.



The preceding analysis is based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of market interest rates, loan prepayments and reactions of depositors to changes in
interest rates, and should not be relied upon as being

indicative of actual results. Further, the analysis does not necessarily contemplate all actions Sky Financial may undertake in response to changes in
interest rates.



Sky Financial also utilizes interest rate swaps and caps to
effectively manage it interest rate risk. At June 30, 2004, the fair values of Sky Financials derivative arrangements aggregated $2,833 on contracts with notional amounts of $412,200.



|Item 4. | Controls and Procedures
|------- | -----------------------



The management of Sky Financial is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14 of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As of June 30, 2004, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the
design and operation of Sky Financials disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, management concluded that Sky Financials disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2004 were effective in ensuring that
information required to be disclosed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period required by the United States Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms.



Managements responsibilities related to establishing and maintaining effective
disclosure controls and procedures include maintaining effective internal controls over financial reporting that are designed to produce reliable financial statements in accordance with accounting policies generally accepted in the United States of
America. Management has assessed Sky Financials system of internal control over financial reporting as described in Internal Control  Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission. Based on this assessment, management believes that, as of June 30, 2004, its system of internal control over financial reporting met those criteria.



There have been no significant changes in Sky Financials internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to
June 30, 2004.



PART II. OTHER INFORMATION



|Item 1. | Legal Proceedings
|------- | -----------------



Between August 2000 and December 2001, Sky Bank provided financing to a commercial borrower and its affiliated entities for the purchase of three separate portfolios of commercial lease pools, and a warehouse line of
credit to finance lease pools. During 2001, Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company, which was merged with Sky Bank on May 16, 2003, provided similar financing to the same commercial borrower and its affiliated entities. These loans, with a current
outstanding balance of $26,600, are secured by assignments of the payment streams from the underlying leases, surety bonds or insurance policies, and a limited guarantee from the sole member of the commercial borrower.



Upon default of these commercial loans, Sky Bank (and its predecessor Metropolitan) made
demand for payment from Illinois Union Insurance Company (IU), RLI Insurance Company (RLI), and Royal Indemnity Company (Royal) under the relevant surety bonds and insurance policies. IU, RLI, and Royal
(collectively, the Sureties) have failed to make the payments required under the surety bonds and insurance policies. As a result, in the spring of 2002, Sky filed suit against each of the Sureties seeking to enforce Sky Banks
rights under the surety bonds and insurance policies issued by the Sureties in connection with the commercial lease pools. Skys complaints claim breach of contract, bad faith and allege that the Sureties are liable for the payments due to Sky
under the terms of the bonds and are estopped from asserting fraud as a defense to paying any claims under the bonds. A similar suit was filed by Metropolitan in June, 2002. In October, 2002, the suits were consolidated for pretrial purposes with
more than 35 other lawsuits involving similar claims in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, Eastern Division, under the Federal Multi-district Litigation (MDL) Rules.

##### Table of Contents

On January 31, 2003, Sky Bank and the other Claimants in the MDL Proceeding (MDL 02CV16000, Docket No. 1490) filed a
consolidated Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings (the Motion) seeking a determination that the Sureties are liable, as a matter of law, under the relevant surety bonds and insurance policies. The Motion is pending with the MDL Court and
discovery in the MDL Proceeding is underway.



The key defense of the Sureties
in denying Sky Banks claims under the surety bonds is that they were fraudulently induced by the originator of the commercial leases to issue the surety bonds in the first instance. The Sureties have also asserted related defenses that the
underlying equipment leases are invalid, usurious, or otherwise unenforceable. Sky Bank believes that none of these defenses can defeat Sky Banks claims under the surety bonds, which, in the view of Sky Bank, provide for absolute and
unconditional guarantees of payment.



Sky Bank believes that the language of
the surety bonds (and in the case of IU, the insurance policies) clearly provides that the Sureties are responsible to Sky Bank, as the Obligee or Named Insured under the bonds, for the underwriting of the lessees and leases, including all issues of
fraud, and that the Sureties waived any defense of fraud to claims under the bonds. Sky Bank also believes that the surety bonds make it clear that the Sureties were responsible for the performance of the originator of the leases as sub-servicer of
the leases. Finally, Sky Bank believes that the surety bonds provide that if the Obligee or Named Insured fails to receive a payment due under a lease from the sub-servicer, a default under the lease occurs, and the Sureties payment
obligations are triggered. Relevant excerpts from the RLI and Royal surety bonds are set forth below:



The Surety is responsible to the Obligee for the individual underwriting of each lessee and Lease, including but not limited to, all related credit
matters, issues of fraud, bankruptcy and the accurate and timely performance by any sub-servicer designated by Surety, and Surety shall assert no defenses to any claim under this Bond as a result of any of the foregoing. This Lease Bond and the
Suretys obligation constitute an unconditional and absolute guarantee of payment, not collection. If the Obligee fails to receive a payment under the Lease from the Surety, as servicer, or from any sub-servicer, on the scheduled due date, a
default under the Lease occurs. Upon such default, the Surety shall have thirty (30) days to cause the default to be remedied. The Surety shall make payment on this bond to Obligee upon receipt of demand from Obligee, within this 30 day period.



Relevant excerpts from the IU insurance policies are set forth below:



The issuance of this endorsement shall represent the
Companys approval of the individual underwriting and execution and delivery of each Lease, including, but not limited to, all related credit matters, issues of fraud, bankruptcy, validity, legality and enforceability and the Company shall pay
all claims hereunder unconditionally and assert no defenses to any claim under this endorsement as a result of any of the foregoing or based on any act or omission of the master-servicer or sub-servicer. If the named insured fails to receive a
payment under the lease from the lesseethen default under the lease occurs. Upon such default, the Company shall have thirty (30) days to cause the default to be remedied. Upon the passage of such 30-day period, then the Company shall make
payment hereunder to the named insured in immediately available funds.



Furthermore, Sky Bank believes that as a further inducement to Sky Bank to extend credit, the Sureties issued representation letters and legal opinions which confirmed the validity and enforceability of its surety bonds, and in effect
acknowledged the assignment of the bonds to Sky Bank.



Sky Financial has
reviewed the relevant matters of fact and law with its special counsel and believes that it has substantial and meritorious claims against the Sureties, due in part to the fact that, under the



34



---

##### Table of Contents

terms of the bonds, the Sureties undertake the responsibility for all credit matters and any fraud that may have occurred in the underwriting of the credit,
and waive all defenses associated with the bonds, including defenses of fraud. Sky Financial has and will continue to vigorously assert all the rights and remedies available to it to obtain payment under the bonds. While the ultimate outcome of this
matter cannot be determined at this time, Sky Financial management does not believe that the outcome of any of these pending legal proceedings will materially affect the consolidated financial position or results of operations of Sky Financial.



Second Bancorp, which was acquired by Sky Financial on July 1, 2004, provided
similar financing with a current outstanding balance of $7,800 which has been assumed by Sky Financial in the acquisition. Second Bancorp is a party to the MDL Proceedings.



Sky Financial is, from time to time, involved in various lawsuits and claims that arise in the normal course of business. In the opinion of
management, any liabilities that may result from these lawsuits and claims will not materially affect the consolidated financial position or results of operations of Sky Financial.
