Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations

         Heartland Bancshares, Inc. was incorporated in Florida in August 1998
to serve as a holding company for Heartland National Bank, a national banking
association then in organization. For approximately the first 13 months
following its incorporation, the main activities of Heartland Bancshares
centered on applying for a national bank charter, applying to become a bank
holding company, hiring and training bank employees, preparing the banking
facilities and premises for opening, and conducting an initial public offering
of common stock to raise a minimum of $6.2 million to fund the startup of
Heartland National Bank. By August 1999, Heartland Bancshares had received
subscriptions to purchase common stock in an amount in excess of the required
minimum, and on September 7, 1999, Heartland National Bank commenced
operations.

                              Financial Condition

         Management continuously monitors the financial condition of Heartland
National Bank in order to maintain sufficient capital to support the operations
of Heartland National Bank and Heartland Bancshares and to protect the
depositors of Heartland National Bank. Significant items affecting Heartland
National Bank's financial condition are discussed below.

Asset Quality

         A major key to long-term earnings growth is the maintenance of a
high-quality loan portfolio. Heartland National Bank's directive in this regard
is carried out through its policies and procedures for extending credit to
Heartland National Bank's customers. The goal of these policies and procedures
is to provide a sound basis for new credit extensions and an early recognition
of problem assets to allow the most flexibility in their timely disposition.

         Principal banking operations commenced on September 7, 1999, and
management has not identified any non-performing assets. Additions to the
allowance for loan losses will be made periodically to maintain the allowance
at an appropriate level based upon management's analysis of potential risk in
the loan portfolio. The amount of the loan loss provision will generally be
determined by an evaluation of the level of loans outstanding, the level of
non-performing loans, historical loan loss experience, delinquency trends, the
amount of actual losses charged to the reserve in a given period, and
assessment of present and anticipated economic conditions.

Liquidity

         Liquidity represents the ability to provide steady sources of funds
for loan commitments and investment activities, as well as to maintain
sufficient funds to cover deposit withdrawals and payment of operating
obligations. Heartland National Bank's liquidity position was initially
established through Heartland Bancshares' purchase of $6.0 million of the
common stock of Heartland National Bank. As Heartland National Bank grows,
liquidity needs can be met either by converting assets to cash or by attracting
new deposits. Heartland National Bank had deposits of $39.5 million at June 30,
2000. Below are the pertinent liquidity balances and ratios at June 30, 2000.

                                                                               -------------

              <S>                                                              <C>

              CDs over $100,000 to total deposits ratio................                13.6%
              Loan to deposit ratio....................................                26.9%
</TABLE>


         Cash and cash equivalents are the primary source of liquidity. At June
30, 2000, cash and cash equivalents amounted to $15.5 million, representing
34.2% of total assets. Securities available for sale provide a secondary source
of liquidity. None of the $16 million in Heartland National Bank's securities
portfolio is scheduled to mature in 2000.

         At June 30, 2000, large denomination certificates accounted for 13.6%
of total deposits. Large denomination CDs are generally more volatile than
other deposits. As a result, management continually monitors the
competitiveness of the rates it pays on its large denomination CDs and
periodically adjusts its rates in accordance with market demands. Significant
withdrawals of large denomination CDs could have a material adverse effect on
Heartland National Bank's liquidity. Management believes that since a majority
of the above certificates were obtained from Heartland National Bank customers
residing in Highlands County, Florida, the volatility of such deposits is lower
than if such deposits were obtained from depositors residing outside of
Highlands County, as outside depositors are generally considered to be more
likely to be interest rate sensitive.

         Management knows of no trends, demands, commitments, events or
uncertainties that should result in or are reasonably likely to result in
Heartland Bancshares' liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way in
the foreseeable future.

Capital Adequacy

         There are two primary measures of capital adequacy for banks and bank
holding companies: (i) risk-based capital guidelines and (ii) the leverage
ratio.

         The risk-based capital guidelines measure the amount of a bank's
required capital in relation to the degree of risk perceived in its assets and
its off-balance sheet items. Under the risk-based capital guidelines, capital
is divided into two "tiers." Tier 1 capital consists of common shareholders'
equity, non-cumulative perpetual preferred stock and any related surplus and
minority interest in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries. Goodwill
is subtracted from the total. Tier 2 capital consists of the allowance for loan
losses, hybrid capital instruments, term subordinated debt and intermediate
term

preferred stock. Banks are required to maintain a minimum risk-based capital
ratio of 8.0%, with at least 4.0% consisting of Tier 1 capital.

         The second measure of capital adequacy is the leverage ratio, which is
computed by dividing Tier 1 capital by average total assets during the most
recent quarter. The OCC has established a 4.0% minimum leverage ratio
requirement for all banks that are not rated CAMELS 1.

         The table below illustrates Heartland National Bank's and Heartland
Bancshares' regulatory capital ratios at June 30, 2000:

         The above ratios indicate that the capital positions of Heartland
Bancshares and Heartland National Bank are sound and that Heartland Bancshares
is well positioned for future growth.

                             Results of Operations

         Since Heartland National Bank did not begin operations until the third
quarter of 1999, a comparison of the company's results of operations for the
six months and three months ended June 30, 1999 to the comparable period in
2000 would not be meaningful. This discussion will therefore concentrate on
results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2000.

         Net (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2000 amounted to
$(178,949), or $(.27) per share, and for the quarter ended June 30, 2000
amounted to $(67,837), or $(.10) per share. The following is a brief discussion
of the more significant components of net income:

         (a)      Net interest income represents the difference between
                  interest received on interest earning assets and interest
                  paid on interest bearing liabilities. The following table
                  sets forth the main components of interest earning assets and
                  interest bearing liabilities for the six months and quarter
                  ended June 30, 2000.

         (b)      At March 31, 2000, the allowance for loan losses amounted to
                  $143,933. During the quarter ended June 30, 2000, an
                  additional $7,346 was provided to the allowance for loan
                  losses. There have been charge-offs of $2,654 since the
                  opening of Heartland National Bank. As of June 30, 2000,
                  management considers the allowance for loan losses to be
                  adequate to absorb expected future losses. However, there can
                  be no assurance that charge-offs in future periods will not
                  exceed the allowance for loan losses or that additional
                  provisions to the allowance will not be required.

         (c)      Non-interest income, which consists primarily of service fees
                  on deposit accounts and other miscellaneous fees, amounted to
                  $51,166, or .13% of average assets, for the six months ended
                  June 30, 2000, and amounted to $27,871, or .07% of average
                  assets, for the quarter ended June 30, 2000.

         (d)      Non-interest expense for the six months and quarter ended
                  June 30, 2000 amounted to $887,892 and $479,065,
                  respectively. As a percent of total average assets,
                  non-interest expense amounted to 2.18% and 1.2%,
                  respectively. The components of non-interest expense for the
                  six months and quarter ended June 30, 2000 are set forth

              Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

         Heartland Bancshares may, from time to time, make written or oral
forward-looking statements, including statements contained in Heartland
Bancshares' filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and its reports
to stockholders. Such forward-looking statements are made based on management's
belief as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to,
management pursuant to "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Heartland Bancshares' actual results may differ
materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements due
to a variety of factors, including governmental monetary and fiscal policies,
deposit levels, loan demand, loan collateral values, securities portfolio
values and interest rate risk management; the effects of competition in the
banking business from other commercial banks, savings and loan associations,
mortgage banking firms, consumer finance companies, credit unions, securities
brokerage firms, insurance companies, money market mutual funds and other
financial institutions operating in Heartland Bancshares' market area and
elsewhere, including institutions operating through the Internet; changes in
government regulations relating to the banking industry, including regulations
relating to branching and acquisitions; failure of assumptions underlying the
establishment of reserves for loan losses, including the value of collateral
underlying delinquent loans,

and other factors. Heartland Bancshares cautions that such factors are not
exclusive. Heartland Bancshares does not undertake to update any
forward-looking statements that may be made from time to time by, or on behalf
of, Heartland Bancshares.
