NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 (1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting and reporting policies of Citizens First Corporation (the
"Company") and its subsidiary, Citizens First Bank, Inc. (the "Bank"), conform
to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and
general practices within the banking industry. The condensed consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Bank. All
significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in
consolidation.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company's
annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or
omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's Form 10-KSB annual report for 2004 filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date
of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Estimates used in the preparation of the financial
statements are based on various factors including the current interest rate
environment and the general strength of the local economy. Changes in the
overall interest rate environment can significantly affect the Company's net
interest income and the value of its recorded assets and liabilities. Actual
results could differ from those estimates used in the preparation of the
financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been reflected in the accompanying unaudited financial
statements. Results of interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results
to be expected for the full year. Those adjustments consist only of normal
recurring adjustments. The condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company
as of December 31, 2004, has been derived from the audited consolidated balance
sheet of the Company as of that date.

STOCK OPTION PLANS
All references to stock options, earnings per share and the amount of common
stock issued and outstanding have been adjusted to reflect the 5% common stock
dividend that was paid on May 30, 2005, to record holders of common stock on
April 29, 2005.

On December 9, 2002, the board of directors adopted the 2002 Stock Option Plan,
which became effective subject to the approval of the Company's shareholders at
the annual meeting in April 2003. The purpose of the plan is to afford key
employees an incentive to remain in the employ of the Company and its
subsidiaries and to use their best efforts on its behalf. 126,000 shares of
Company common stock have been reserved for issuance under the plan.

On January 17, 2003, the board of directors adopted the 2003 Stock Option Plan
for Non-Employee Directors, which became effective subject to the approval of
the Company's shareholders at the annual meeting in April 2003. The purpose of
the plan is to assist the Company in promoting a greater identity of interest
between the Company's non-employee directors and shareholders, and in attracting
and retaining non-employee directors by affording them an opportunity to share
in the Company's future successes. 42,000 shares of common stock have been
reserved for issuance under the plan.

The 2002 Stock Option Plan and the 2003 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee
Directors were approved at the Company's Annual Meeting of Shareholders on April
17, 2003. On January 14, 2004, the Company granted options to purchase 42,000
shares under the employee stock option plan and 5,250 shares under the
non-employee stock option plan. On May 20, 2004, the Company granted options to
purchase 4,725 shares under the non-employee stock option plan. On January 12,
2005, the Company granted options to purchase 42,000 shares under the employee
stock option plan. The Company on April 21, 2005, granted options to purchase
6,300 shares under the non-employee stock option plan.

The Company accounts for these plans under the recognition and measurement
principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and
related Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected
in net income, as all options granted under this plan had an exercise price
equal to the market value of the
                                        8
<PAGE>9
underlying common stock on the grant date. The following tables illustrates
the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the
fair value provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation,
for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004.

The Company's 2002 Stock Option Plan is a fixed option plan under which the
Company may grant options that vest over 3 years to selected employees for up to
126,000 shares of common stock. The Company's 2003 Stock Option Plan is a fixed
option plan under which the Company may grant options that vest immediately to
selected non-employee directors for up to 42,000 shares of common stock. The
exercise price of each option is intended to equal the fair value of the
Company's stock on the date of grant. An option's maximum term is 10 years.

(4) ACQUISITION OF COMMONWEALTH MORTGAGE AND SOUTHERN KENTUCKY LAND TITLE
On January 2, 2003, the Bank acquired all of the outstanding stock of
Commonwealth Mortgage of Bowling Green, Inc. and Southern Kentucky Land Title,
Inc. Commonwealth Mortgage originates 1-4 family residential mortgages for sale
in the secondary mortgage market, while Southern Kentucky Land Title provides
title insurance agency services for real estate purchase contracts. The purchase
price for Commonwealth Mortgage and Southern Kentucky Land Title consisted of
$400,000 in cash plus a deferred contingent purchase price of up to $1,350,000
payable upon the combined entities' achievement of specified annual earnings
targets over a five year period, plus 25% of the amount, if any, by which their
earnings exceed such targets. 25% of the deferred purchase price will be paid by
the issuance of the Company's common stock, valued at the average of the closing
sales price of the stock over the last ten trading days of the applicable
calendar year. At the former Commonwealth shareholders' option, an additional
25% of such deferred purchase price, if any, may be paid in shares of the
Company's common stock. The deferred contingent purchase price is accounted for
as additional purchase price at the time the contingency is resolved. The Bank
also purchased the .2 acre site on which the main office of Commonwealth
Mortgage is located for a purchase price of $272,500 in cash. Goodwill
recognized in the initial transaction amounted to $380,000. In January 2004, the
Bank paid $162,401 in cash, and in April 2004 the Company issued 3,790 shares of
the Company's common stock, to the former Commonwealth shareholders as the first
installment of the deferred contingent purchase price. In January 2005, the Bank
paid $251,717 in cash, and in March 2005 the Company issued 5,778 shares of the
Company's
                                        10
<PAGE>11
 common stock to the former Commonwealth shareholders as the second
installment of the deferred contingent purchase price. At June 30, 2005,
goodwill from this transaction totaled $936,416.

The acquisition of Commonwealth Mortgage and Southern Kentucky Land Title was
completed to give the Bank an expanded presence in the local mortgage
origination market, to further expand the Bank's customer service offerings and
to supplement the Bank's non-interest fee income.


(5) CUMULATIVE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK OFFERING
The Company completed during the third quarter of 2004 the private placement of
250 shares of Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, stated value $31,992 per
share (Preferred Stock), for an aggregate purchase price of $7,998,000. The
Preferred Stock was sold for $31,992 per share, is entitled to quarterly
cumulative dividends at an annual fixed rate of 6.5% and is convertible into
shares of common stock of the Company at an initial conversion price per share
of $15.50 on and after three years from the date of issuance. The sale of the
Preferred Stock netted proceeds to the Company of $7,659,340, of which
$3,011,970 (including $3,000,000 in principal and $11,970 in accrued interest)
was used to repay the outstanding balance under the Company's line of credit,
and $3,800,000 was contributed to the capital of the Bank. The remaining
proceeds from the issuance of the Preferred Stock are being used for general
corporate purposes, including the contribution of capital to the Bank.

(6)  EARNINGS PER SHARE
On April 20, 2005, the Board of Directors declared a 5% common stock dividend to
shareholders of record on April 29, 2005, payable May 30, 2005. All references
to common shares and earnings per share have been restated to reflect the stock
dividend. There are no anti-dilutive stock options. Basic earnings per share
have been computed by dividing net income available for common shareholders by
the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted
earnings per share have been computed the same as basic earnings per share, and
assumes the conversion of outstanding vested stock options and convertible
preferred stock. The following table reconciles the basic and diluted earnings
per share computations for the quarters and six months ending June 30, 2005 and
2004.

(7) EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN
Effective October 1, 2004, the Company elected to self-insure certain costs
related to employee health and accident benefit programs. The Company has
purchased insurance that limits its annual exposure for individual claims and
that limits its aggregate annual exposure to $118,641 during the initial year of
the plan. Future insurance costs that limit the Company's exposure for
individual claims and aggregate exposure will be determined annually, based
primarily upon the Company's actual claim history for the previous year.

(8) COMMON STOCK DIVIDEND
On April 20, 2005, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a 5% stock
dividend on each share of common stock of the Corporation outstanding, payable
to the record holders of the common stock on April 29, 2005. The dividend was
issued and payable May 30, 2005 in the form of 0.05 share of common stock for
each one share of common stock outstanding on the record date. Any fractional
share of common stock which a shareholder would be entitled to receive was
rounded up to a whole share of common stock. A total of 42,584 shares of common
stock were issued as a result of common stock dividend.

(9) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Subsequent to quarter end, Citizens First Bank purchased, for $3,750,000, a
30,000 square foot building, located in Bowling Green, KY, to be used as a
headquarters building. The Bank anticipates using approximately 15,000 square
feet of the building, and leasing the remaining space. The Bank offices will
primarily be occupied by senior management, commercial lenders, deposit
operations, loan accounting, finance, and information systems personnel. The
purchase price was funded through the acquisition of deposits generated by the
Bank.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL
Citizens First Corporation ("the Company") was incorporated in Kentucky on
December 24, 1975 for the purpose of conducting business as an investment club,
and is headquartered in Bowling Green, Kentucky. In late 1998 and early 1999,
the Company received regulatory approval to become a bank holding company under
the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the"BHCA"), through its
organization and ownership of its subsidiary, Citizens First Bank, Inc. (the
"Bank"). On February 17, 1999 the Company completed the initial public offering
of the sale of 536,667 shares of its no par value common stock. The Company,
through the Bank, is now involved in the banking business, primarily serving
customers in the Bowling Green/Warren County market and in the Franklin/Simpson
County market. As of June 30, 2005, the Company and Bank employed sixty-four
employees (fifty-seven full-time equivalent employees).

The Bank commenced operations as a newly chartered commercial bank in February
1999 at 1805 Campbell Lane, Bowling Green, Kentucky. The Bank opened a branch
office at 901 Lehman Avenue, Bowling Green, Kentucky in March 1999. In January
2003 the Bank acquired Commonwealth Mortgage and Southern Kentucky Land Title,
Inc. located at 1301U.S. Highway 31-W Bypass in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The
Bank opened branch offices at 2451 Fitzgerald-Industrial Drive, Bowling Green,
Kentucky and at 1200 South Main Street, Franklin, Kentucky in February 2003.
Subsequent to quarter end, the Bank purchased a 30,000 square foot office
building, located at 1065 Ashley Street in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The Bank has
received permission from the appropriate regulatory authorities to move its
headquarters to this facility, and also to open a retail branch in the building.
The Bank was organized as a community oriented, full service alternative to the
super-regional financial institutions which dominate its primary service area.
The Bank's mission is to firmly establish itself in its primary service area as
a community owned and operated full-service bank providing traditional products
and services typically offered by commercial banks. The Bank believes that its
ability to compete is enhanced by its local management and its base of local
shareholders and directors. The Bank has emphasized and intends to continue
emphasizing its Bowling Green and southern Kentucky roots, and the Bank has a
philosophy of giving its customers prompt and responsive personal service.

The Company's corporate strategy focuses on providing the Bank's customers with
high quality, personal banking services. The Bank offers products designed to
meet the needs of its customers that include individuals, small businesses,
partnerships and corporations. The Bank provides a full range of corporate and
retail banking services that include checking, savings, and time deposit
accounts; secured and unsecured loans to corporations, individuals, and others;
letters of credit; rental of safe deposit boxes; and cash management services.
The Bank also offers, through affiliations with third parties, trust services,
investment management services, and business and personal insurance products.

The Bank offers a full range of deposit services. Checking account services
include regular non-interest bearing checking accounts as well as interest
bearing negotiable order of withdrawal ("NOW") accounts. Savings and certificate
of deposit accounts include accounts ranging from a daily maturity (regular
savings and also money market accounts) to longer-term certificates as
authorized by law. In addition, retirement accounts such as IRA's (Individual
Retirement Accounts) are available. All deposit accounts are insured by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to the full amount permitted by law.
Deposit accounts are solicited from individuals, businesses, professional
organizations and governmental authorities.

Lending services include a full range of commercial, personal, and mortgage
loans. The Bank's primary focus is on business lending. The types of commercial
loans that are available include both secured and unsecured loans for working
capital (including inventory and receivables), business expansion (including
acquisition of real estate and improvements) and purchase of machinery and
equipment. The Bank does not emphasize real estate lending for land acquisition,
land development or open-end construction loans. The types of personal loans
that are available include secured and unsecured loans for such purposes as
financing automobiles, home improvements, education and personal investments.
The Bank originates, processes and closes residential real estate loans that are
then primarily sold on the secondary market (each individually) to a
correspondent.

The Bank offers credit cards (through correspondent banking services) including
MasterCard (TM) and Visa(TM) as well as a personal checking account related line
of credit. The line of credit is available for both protection against
unexpected overdrafts and also for the convenience of having a pre-arranged loan
that can be activated simply by a
                                        13
<PAGE>14
check drawn on a personal checking account.Other services offered include, but
are not limited to, safe deposit boxes, letters of credit, travelers checks,
direct deposit of payroll, social security and dividend payments and automatic
payment of insurance premiums and mortgage loans. The Bank does not have a
proprietary automated teller machine network but participates in a national ATM
network through the FiServ EFT network, and through the Visa Debit Card Program.

The Bowling Green economy is diversified, with financial and other service
industries representing the largest industry segment. The local unemployment
rate of approximately 4.2% is lower than the national unemployment rate of
approximately 5.0%. The Company's competition in the local market consists
mainly of regional and national financial institutions. In the Bank's primary
service area, there are 14 commercial banks, of which 4 are considered to have
their headquarters in the Bank's service area. In addition, there are various
credit unions, mortgage companies, and other commercial banks that have loan
production offices in the area. The Bank encounters strong competition from
these financial institutions, for deposits, loans, and other financial services,
as well as from insurance companies, brokerage firms and other financial
institutions, some of which are not subject to the same degree of regulation and
restrictions as the Bank. Many of these competitors have substantially greater
resources and lending limits than the Bank has to offer and certain services,
such as international banking services, which the Bank is not providing.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and follow general
practices within the financial services industry. The most significant
accounting policies followed by the Company are presented in Note 1 of the Notes
to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report.
These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the other financial
statement notes and in this financial review, provide information on how
significant assets and liabilities are valued in the financial statements and
how those values are determined. Based on the valuation techniques used and the
sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the methods, assumptions, and
estimates underlying those amounts, management has identified the determination
of the allowance for loan losses to be the accounting area that requires the
most subjective or complex judgments, and as such could be most subject to
revision as new information becomes available.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses represents management's estimate of probable
credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Determining the amount of the
allowance for loan losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because
it requires significant judgment and the use of estimates related to the amount
and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, estimated losses on
loans based on historical loss experience, and consideration of current economic
trends and conditions, all of which may be susceptible to significant change.

The loan portfolio also represents the largest asset type on the consolidated
balance sheet. Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
included in the Company's 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB describes the
methodology used to determine the allowance for loan losses, and a discussion of
the factors driving changes in the amount of the allowance for loan losses is
included under "Asset Quality" below.

Loans that exhibit probable or observed credit weaknesses are subject to
individual review. Where appropriate, reserves are allocated to individual loans
based on management's estimate of the borrower's ability to repay the loan given
the availability of collateral, other sources of cash flow and legal options
available to the Company. Included in the review of individual loans are those
that are impaired as provided in SFAS No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for
Impairment of a Loan." The Company evaluates the collectibility of both
principal and interest when assessing the need for a loss accrual. Historical
loss rates are applied to other loans not subject to reserve allocations. These
historical loss rates may be adjusted for significant factors that, in
management's judgment, reflect the impact of any current conditions on loss
recognition. Factors which management considers in the analysis include the
effects of the national and local economies, trends in the nature and volume of
loans (delinquencies, charge-offs and nonaccrual loans), changes in mix, asset
quality trends, risk management and loan administration, changes in internal
lending policies and credit standards, and examination results from bank
regulatory agencies and the Company's internal credit examiners.

An unallocated reserve is maintained to recognize the imprecision in estimating
and measuring losses when evaluating reserves for individual loans or pools of
loans. Reserves on individual loans and historical loss rates are reviewed
                                        14
<PAGE>15
quarterly and adjusted as necessary based on changing borrower and/or collateral
conditions and actual collection and charge-off experience.

The Company has not substantively changed any aspect to its overall approach in
the determination of the allowance for loan losses. There have been no material
changes in assumptions or estimation techniques as compared to prior periods
that impacted the determination of the current period allowance.

Based on the procedures discussed above, management is of the opinion that the
reserve of $1,890,776 was adequate, but not excessive, to absorb estimated
credit losses associated with the loan portfolio at June 30, 2005.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the three months ended June 30, 2005, the Company reported net income of
$504,018, or $0.42 and $0.35 per basic and diluted common share, respectively,
compared to net income of $182,749, or $.21 per basic and diluted common share,
for the same period ended June 30, 2004.

For the six months ended June 30, 2005, the Company reported net income of
$955,234, or $0.78 and $0.67 per basic and diluted common share, respectively,
compared to net income of $328,357, or $0.37 per basic and diluted common share,
for the same period ended June 30, 2004.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income was $1,897,472 in the second quarter of 2005, compared with
$1,425,543 in the comparable period in 2004. Second quarter 2005 interest income
of $2,657,246, an increase of $581,838 or 28.0% over the same period total of
$2,075,408 in 2004, includes $2,524,236 income on loans, $118,996 income on
securities, and $14,014 income on federal funds sold and other interest-bearing
accounts. Interest income of $2,075,408 during the second quarter of 2004
included $1,940,982 of income on loans, $126,158 income on investment
securities, and $8,268 income on federal funds sold and other interest-bearing
accounts. Interest expense of $759,774 for the second quarter of 2005, up
$109,909 or 16.9% from the same period in 2004, consists of interest on deposits
of $657,152, and on other borrowings of $102,622. Second quarter 2004 interest
expense of $649,865 consisted of interest on deposits of $540,994, and interest
on other borrowings of $108,871. An increase in yields on interest earning
assets, coupled with an increase in the amount of interest earning assets,
contributed to the increase in net interest income in the second quarter of
2005, compared to the same quarter of 2004. Income from available-for-sale
securities is down from the second quarter of 2004 primarily because of a
decrease in average securities for the period. The increase in interest expense
in the second quarter of 2005, compared to the same period of 2004, was due to
both the increased average cost of deposits during 2005, after short term rates
have increased by 225 basis points since the current rate trend started in mid
2004, and the increased average amount of interest bearing deposits compared to
the second quarter of 2004. The decrease in long-term debt is due to the payoff
in the third quarter of 2004 of $3,000,000 of debt at the Company, using
proceeds from the issuance of cumulative convertible preferred stock completed
during the third quarter of 2004. The increase in yields on interest earning
assets during the second quarter of 2005, compared to the same period of 2004,
is primarily attributable to the increase by 225 basis points of short-term
interest rates since late June 2004. The Bank is asset sensitive, meaning assets
reprice faster to changes in short-term rates than do liabilities. In a rising
short-term rate environment, such as occurred during the second quarter of 2005,
more of the Bank's interest earning assets, primarily loans, reprice up faster
than do the liabilities, specifically certificates of deposit, which provide the
funding for the assets.

Net interest income was $3,644,183 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, an
increase of $840,083 or 30.0% over the total of $2,804,100 for the same period
of 2004. Interest income of $5,070,017 for the first six months of 2005 included
$4,803,919 income on loans, $238,859 income on investment securities, and
$27,239 income on federal funds sold and other interest-bearing accounts. Total
interest income of $4,137,739 for the first six months of 2004 consisted of
$3,855,602 income on loans, $267,653 income on investment securities, and
$14,484 income on federal funds sold and other interest-bearing accounts.
Interest expense for the first six months of 2005 totaled $1,425,834, and
included $1,238,835 interest on deposits, and $186,999 expense on other
borrowings. The comparable period of 2004 had interest expense of $1,333,639, of
which $1,092,721 was interest on deposits, and $240,918 was expense on other
borrowings.

The provision for loan losses expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2005, was
$85,000, an increase of $40,000 over the total of $45,000 for the same quarter
of 2004. As shown in the table in Footnote 3, the Company had net recoveries of
loans charged off totaling $50,211 for the second quarter of 2005, compared to
net charge-offs totaling $26,170 for the same quarter of 2004, a positive
variance of $76,381. The increase in the provision expense for the second
quarter of 2005, compared to the same quarter of 2004, was due to the overall
increase in loans, requiring an allocation for loan losses for the unallocated
reserve. See a discussion of asset quality included in the Asset Quality section
of the Balance Sheet Review.

The provision for loan losses expense was $120,000 for the first half of 2005,
equal to the $120,000 for the same period of 2004.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

Non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004,
respectively, was $361,333 and $396,141, a decrease of $34,808 or 8.8%. Income
from service charges on deposit accounts decreased $3,441, or 1.6%, to $213,024
during the second quarter of 2005 from $216,465 for the second quarter of 2004.
Despite an overall increase in deposit accounts for the periods, fee income from
insufficient fund charges decreased, offsetting other account fees. Income from
mortgage banking decreased $38,744, to $97,443 during the second quarter of 2005
from $136,187 in the same period of 2004. The decrease in mortgage banking
income in 2005 is primarily due to increased competition in the local market, as
the company reduced fees charged to customers, to maintain market share.

Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004,
respectively, was $693,229 and $664,865, an increase of $28,364 or 4.3%. Service
charges on deposit accounts comprised the largest part of non-interest income
for both six-month time periods, totaling $405,170 and $409,400 for 2005 and
2004, respectively. Income from mortgage banking decreased to $195,070 for the
first six months of 2005 from $214,996 for the same period of 2004. Losses from
the sale of investment securities during the first six months of 2004 totaled
$34,368, compared to no activity for the same period of 2005.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

Non-interest expense was $1,409,487 in the second quarter of 2005, down from
$1,508,135 in the same quarter of 2004, a decrease of $98,648 or 6.5%. A
decrease in salary and employee benefit expense of $78,725, due primarily to a
reduction in FTE's, coupled with a decrease of $24,373 in professional fees,
primarily legal fees, accounted for significant variances compared to the same
period in 2004.

For the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, non-interest
expense was $2,769,378 and $2,869,008, a decrease of $99,630, or 3.5%. A
decrease in salary and employee benefit expense of $170,682, due primarily to a
reduction in FTE's, was the largest positive variance comparing the first half
of 2005 to 2004. Franchise shares and deposit tax was up $46,953 compared to
2004, primarily due to an adjustment made to the 2004 total. The increase in
other non-interest expense is associated with a number of accounts, with the
largest variances compared to the first half of 2004 comprising an increase of
$25,581 in correspondent bank charges, and $20,976 in fees associated with
maintaining and disposing of property in the other real estate owned category.

INCOME TAXES

Income tax expense has been calculated based on the Company's expected annual
rate for 2005. During the second quarter of 2005, income tax expense totaled
$260,300 compared to $85,800 for the same period of 2004. For the first half of
2005, income tax expense totaled $492,800, compared to $151,600 during the same
period of 2004. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are recognized for the tax
effects of differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets
and liabilities.

BALANCE SHEET REVIEW

OVERVIEW

Total assets at June 30, 2005 were $179,595,850, up from $169,512,086 at
December 31, 2004 and up from $164,735,856 a year ago. Average total assets for
the second quarter of 2005 were $176,669,278, up $13,785,141 from the second
quarter of 2004 average of $162,884,137.

LOANS

At June 30, 2005 loans (excluding mortgage loans held for sale) totaled
$156,553,695, compared with $146,950,427 at December 31, 2004 and $138,553,598 a
year ago, an increase of $9,603,268 and $18,000,097 respectively. Loans averaged
$152,885,927 during the second quarter of 2005, an increase of $14,345,200 or
10.4%, over the average total of $138,540,727 for the second quarter of 2004.

ASSET QUALITY

Non-performing loans are defined as non-accrual loans, loans accruing but past
due 90 days or more, and restructured loans. Management classifies commercial
and commercial real estate loans as non-accrual when principal or interest is
past due 90 days or more and the loan is not adequately collateralized and is in
the process of collection, or when, in the opinion of management, principal or
interest is not likely to be paid in accordance with the terms of the
obligation. Consumer loans are charged off after 120 days of delinquency unless
adequately secured and in the process of collection. Non-accrual loans are not
reclassified as accruing until principal and interest payments are brought
current and future payments appear reasonably certain. Loans are categorized as
restructured if the original interest rate, repayment terms, or both were
restructured due to deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower.
However, restructured loans that demonstrate performance under the restructured
terms and that yield a market rate of interest may be removed from restructured
status in the year following the restructure.

The Bank had non-performing loans totaling $533,141 at June 30, 2005, compared
to $720,041 at December 31, 2004 and $1,644,610 at June 30, 2004. Included in
the non-performing loan total at June 30, 2005 is the remaining portion,
totaling $518,052, of three loans to one borrower, that were placed on
non-accrual status during the second quarter of 2003. The three loans,
originally totaling $1,675,000, are secured by substantially all the assets of
the borrower and the guaranties of three individuals, a limited partnership and
a limited liability company. During the third quarter of 2003, $1,043,050 of
these loans was charged off, and approximately $112,000 was paid against the
balance of the loans. The borrower's assets consist primarily of interests in
energy related properties located in Texas and Louisiana. During the second
quarter of 2003 the borrower advised the Company that one of the properties,
which it had expected to produce significant revenues, had failed to produce any
revenue, was unlikely to ever produce revenues and that the property's value is
now negligible, and further that the revenue from the other properties was
expected to be minimal. The borrower terminated its operations during the second
quarter of 2003. The Bank is pursuing recovery in full of the aforementioned
loans through various legal proceedings, which are expected to culminate by the
end of 2005. Also included in the June 30, 2005 non-performing loan total are
two loans totaling $15,089 that were greater than 90 days past due.

Non-performing assets are defined as non-performing loans, foreclosed real
estate, and other foreclosed property. The Bank had non-performing assets of
$533,141 at the end of the second quarter of 2005, comprised of the above
mentioned non-performing loans. The Bank had non-performing assets of $720,041
at December 31, 2004, comprised entirely of non-performing loans.

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses
charged to expense. The allowance for loan losses was $1,890,776 at June 30,
2005, an increase of $170,211, or 9.9% over the December 31, 2004 level of
$1,720,565. The allowance represents 1.21% of period-end loans, compared to
1.17% of period-end loans at December 31, 2004. The allowance as a percentage of
period-end loans increased at June 30, 2005, compared to December 31, 2004,
because of the increase in the unallocated portion of the loan portfolio, which
is maintained to recognize the imprecision in estimating and measuring losses.
The level of the allowance is based on management's and the Bank Board of
Directors Loan Committee's ongoing review and evaluation of the loan portfolio
and general economic conditions on a monthly basis and by the full Board of
Directors on a quarterly basis. Management's review and evaluation of the
allowance for loan losses is based on an analysis of historical trends,
significant problem
                                        17
<PAGE>18
loans,  current market value of real estate or collateral  and certain  economic
and other factors  affecting loans and real estate or collateral  securing these
loans.  Where  appropriate,  reserves are allocated to individual loans based on
management's  estimate  of the  borrower's  ability  to repay the loan given the
availability  of  collateral,  other  sources  of cash  flow and  legal  options
available to the Company.  Historical  loss rates are applied to other loans not
subject  to  reserve  allocations.  An  unallocated  reserve  is  maintained  to
recognize the  imprecision  in estimating and measuring  losses when  evaluating
reserves for individual loans or pools of loans. These historical loss rates may
be adjusted for significant factors that, in managements  judgment,  reflect the
impact of any current  conditions on loss recognition,  including the effects of
the  national  and local  economies,  trends in the  nature  and volume of loans
(delinquencies, charge-offs and nonaccrual loans), changes in mix, asset quality
trends,  risk management and loan  administration,  changes in internal  lending
policies and credit  standards,  and  examination  results from bank  regulatory
agencies and the  Company's  internal  credit  examiners.  Loans are charged off
when,  in the  opinion  of  management,  they are  deemed  to be  uncollectible.
Recognized  losses are charged  against the allowance and subsequent  recoveries
are added to the allowance. While management uses the best information available
to make  evaluations,  future  adjustments  to the allowance may be necessary if
economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the
evaluation.  The allowance  for loan losses is reviewed  internally by personnel
independent  of the loan  department.  In addition,  the allowance is subject to
periodic  evaluation  by various  regulatory  authorities  and may be subject to
adjustment based upon information that is available to them at the time of their
examination.


SECURITIES

Securities (all classified as available for sale) decreased from $12,888,985 at
December 31, 2004 to $12,656,827 at June 30, 2005. At June 30, 2004, securities
totaled $12,860,270.


DEPOSITS AND BORROWED FUNDS

Total deposits averaged $138,283,062 in the second quarter of 2005, an increase
of $7,595,387 from the comparable 2004 quarter average of $130,687,675. As of
June 30, 2005, total deposits were $140,626,710, and included $122,978,762 of
interest bearing deposits. This compares to total deposits of $130,528,737 at
December 31, 2004, which included $115,513,433 of interest bearing deposits.
Total deposits at June 30, 2004, were $133,478,613, and included interest
bearing deposits of $119,106,637.

The Bank had $3,556,919 of deposits secured by securities sold under agreements
to repurchase on June 30, 2005. These obligations, which mature in one business
day, are swept daily from customers' demand deposit accounts. These balances
averaged $4,124,133 during the second quarter of 2005.

At June 30, 2005, the Company had established Federal Funds lines of credit
totaling $10,050,000 with four correspondent banks. The Company successfully
applied for membership in the Cincinnati Federal Home Loan Bank during 2000, in
order to be able to obtain advances and lines of credit from the FHLB. At June
30, 2005, the Bank had four outstanding FHLB advances totaling $14,000,000. The
first FHLB advance which was issued May 26, 2005, matures May 26, 2006 and has a
fixed interest rate of 3.90%. The second FHLB advance, which was issued June 9,
2003, matures June 9, 2006, and has a fixed interest rate of 2.03%. The third
FHLB advance, which was issued January 21, 2004, matures January 20, 2006, and
has a fixed interest rate of 2.21%. The final FHLB advance, which was issued May
2, 2005, matures May 2, 2007, and has a fixed rate of interest of 4.19%. The
Bank has a pre-arranged borrowing limit with the FHLB that is collateralized by
135% of unpaid principal balances of eligible 1-4 family residential mortgage
loans. At June 30, 2005, the Bank had available collateral to borrow an
additional $6.9 million from the FHLB.

All capital ratios at the Bank and Company increased from June 30, 2004 to June
30, 2005, primarily as a result of the sale of Preferred Stock by the Company
during the third quarter of 2004, and the subsequent injection of capital into
the Bank. The sale of the Preferred Stock netted $7,659,340 to the Company. See
note 7 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. All
ratios for the Bank and the Company are greater than the minimum capital ratios
for well-capitalized companies as of June 30, 2005.

Liquidity is the measure of the Bank's ability to fund customer's needs for
borrowings and deposit withdrawals. In the second quarter of 2005, the Company's
principal sources of funds have been the acquisition of customers' deposits,
repayments of loans, and other funds from bank operations.
