                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND MANAGEMENT REPRESENTATION

The accompanying financial information has been prepared in accordance with the
Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations for quarterly reporting
and therefore does not necessarily include all information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles. This information should be read
in conjunction with the Company's Form 10-KSB filed on May 10, 1999 and Form
SB-2 filed on February 12, 1999.

The consolidated financial statements include First Coastal Bancshares and its
wholly owned subsidiaries, First Coastal Bank, N.A. (the "Bank") and First
Coastal Capital Trust.

Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
operating results for an entire fiscal year. In the opinion of management, the
unaudited financial information for the three month period ended March 31, 1999
and 1998, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals
and provisions, necessary for a fair presentation thereof.

Some matters discussed in this Form 10-QSB may be "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of the Private Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and therefore
may involve risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual
results to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by our
forward-looking statements. These statements generally appear with words such as
"anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "may," "intend," and "expect."


NOTE 2 - ACQUISITION OF AMERICAN INDEPENDENT BANK, N.A. ("AIB")

On March 8, 1999, the Bank acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of
American Independent Bank, N.A. (AIB) for approximately $6.5 million in cash.
AIB had total assets of approximately $38 million on March 8, 1999. The
acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in
accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No, 16. "Business
Combinations". Under this method of accounting, the purchase price was allocated
to the assets, deposits and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of
the acquisition date, which were not materially different from their book
values. The financial statements include the operations of AIB from the date of
the acquisition. Goodwill arising from the transaction totaled approximately
$3.7 million and is being amortized over fifteen years on a straight-line basis.

NOTE 2 - ACQUISITION OF AMERICAN INDEPENDENT BANK, N.A. - CONTINUED


The following table sets forth selected pro forma unaudited combined financial
results of the Company and AIB. The pro forma operating data reflects the effect
of the acquisition of AIB as if it was consummated at the beginning of each
period presented. The pro forma results are not indicative of the results that
would have occurred had the acquisition been in effect for the full periods
presented, nor are they indicative of the results of future operations.

These pro forma disclosures include adjustment to interest expense from the
funds borrowed to fund a portion of the purchase as well as adjustments to per
share data to reflect the issuance of common stock to fund the balance of the
purchase. No adjustments have been reflected in these amounts for the
anticipated cost savings to be derived from this merger.

NOTE 3 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

Effective December 31, 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share." Accordingly, basic earnings
per share are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. The
computation of diluted earnings per share also considers the number of shares
issuable upon the assumed exercise of outstanding common stock options and the
number of shares issuable upon the assumed conversion of the convertible
preferred stock. These items were anti-dilutive for the periods reported and
therefore dilutive earnings per shares is reported as the same as basic earnings
per share.

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


INCOME SUMMARY

For the three months ended March 31, 1999, the Company reported a net loss of
$93,000, or $(0.26) basic loss per share compared to a net income of $68,000, or
$ (.01) basic loss per share for the same three month period in 1998. The
annualized return on average assets was (0.42)% for 1999 compared to 0.41% for
1998. Annualized return on average shareholders' equity for 1999 and 1998 was
(5.17)% and 4.52%, respectively.


NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income is the amount by which the interest and amortization of fees
generated from loans and other earning assets exceeds the cost of funding those
assets, usually deposit account interest expense. Net interest income depends on
the difference (the "interest rate spread") between gross interest and fees
earned on the loans and investment portfolios and the interest rates paid on
deposits and borrowings. Net interest income was $897,000 for the quarter ended
March 31, 1999, compared to $737,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1998.

The following table sets forth the components of net interest income, average
earning assets and net interest margin:

</TABLE>



The net interest margin declined in the first quarter of 1999 compared to the
same quarter in 1998 due to the 75 basis point decline in the prime rate during
the fourth quarter of 1998. The majority of the Bank's loans and its investments
in federal funds sold reprice daily with changes in the prime rate.



(1)  Amounts for interim periods are presented on an annualized basis.

NET INTEREST INCOME (CONTINUED)

Deposits generally reprice at a slower pace, therefore reducing the net interest
margin. Further contributing to the decrease in net interest margin was the
interest expense relating to the recently issued $6.6 million in Preferred
Securities.

The prime rate was 8.50% for the first nine months of 1998, and then experienced
25 basis point declines in September, October and November to end the year at
7.75%. No change has occurred since November 16, 1998.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The Company made no contribution to the allowance for loan losses in the first
quarter of 1999. Management believes that the allowance, which stands at 1.3% of
total loans at March 31, 1999, is adequate to cover future losses.

Changes in the allowance for loan losses for the quarter ended March 31, 1999
and 1998 are as follows (dollar amounts in thousands):

NON INTEREST INCOME

Non Interest Income represents deposit account service charges and other types
of non-loan related fee income. Non-interest income for the quarter ended March
31, 1999 totaled $140,000 compared to $133,000 for the same period ended 1998.
This represents an increase of $7,000. The increase is primarily the result of
an additional $50,000 in noninterest income related to operations of the AIB
branches after the acquisition on March 8, 1999 and a reduction in the gain on
sale of loans of $28,000 in 1998.

NON INTEREST EXPENSE

Non Interest Expense represents salaries, occupancy expenses, professional
expenses, outside services and other miscellaneous expenses necessary to conduct
business. Non interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 totaled
$1,157,000 compared to $722,000 for the same period during 1998. Salary and
Employee Benefits increased $150,000 through internal growth of the Company and
the addition of personnel from the acquisition of AIB. Additionally, the Company
experienced a $25,000 increase in advertising, a $48,000 increase in
professional fees related to operational audits and Y2K costs, an increase of
$50,000 in other costs related to non-capitalizable merger related costs, an
increase of $20,000 in goodwill amortization as a result of the acquisition of
AIB and a $78,000 write-down in the carrying value of its OREO and related
expenses.

INCOME TAXES

The Company's income tax benefit for the first quarter of 1999 was $(27,000),
resulting in an effective rate of 41.0% on loss before taxes and goodwill
amortization. The tax provision for the first quarter of 1998 was $70,000,
resulting in an effective rate of 41.0% on income before taxes and goodwill
amortization.

BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS

Total assets at March 31, 1999 totaled $113.8 million, up 48% from the $76.7
million reported at December 31, 1998. This increase was primarily the result of
the acquisition of AIB, which had total assets of $38 million at the acquisition
date on March 8, 1999. To fund this increase, the Company increased
shareholders' equity by $1.9 million through a supplemental stock offering and
issued $6.6 million in Trust Preferred Securities.

</TABLE>


The primary ratios of loan quality have improved in the first quarter of 1999.
Nonperforming loans as a percent of total loans declined to 0.92% at March 31,
1999, compared to 1.33% at December 31, 1998. This decline was the result of the
pay-off of two large nonaccrual loans (approximately $550,000), increased by the
nonaccrual loans acquired in the AIB acquisition. Likewise, the allowance for
loan losses as a percent of nonperforming loans increased to 138.83% at March
31, 1999, up from 74.80% at December 31, 1998. A portion of this increase is
attributable to the acquisition of the loan portfolio and related allowance for
loan losses from AIB.

TRUST PREFERRED SECURITIES

During the first quarter of 1999 the Company completed an offering of $6.6
million in 11 7/8% Cumulative Preferred Securities through a wholly-owned
subsidiary, First Coastal Capital Trust. Under generally accepted accounting
policies, the securities are reported as liabilities of the Company. The
interest payments are reported as interest expense and the amortization of the
related costs of the offering ($1.0 million) are reported as other non-interest
expense. The Trust Preferred Securities mature on December 31, 2028.




CAPITAL

Total shareholders' equity at March 31, 1999 totaled $8.1 million, which
represented a 12.3% increase from $6.3 million at December 31, 1998. This
increase was primarily attributable to the supplemental stock offering completed
in March 1999.

The Bank maintains capital ratios above the Federal regulatory guidelines for a
"well-capitalized" bank. The ratios are as follows:

</TABLE>


The Company's ratios at March 31, 1999 were 5.87% for Tier 1 capital to average
assets, 6.64% for Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and 14.11% for Total
capital to risk-weighted assets.


LIQUIDITY

Management is not aware of any future capital expenditures or other significant
demands on commitments which would severely impair liquidity.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

The Company has completed the Assessment phase of the Year 2000 Compliance, as
defined under FFIEC guidelines, and is currently in the Renovation and
Validation phases. A few of its computer software applications were modified or
replaced in order to maintain their functionality as the year 2000 approaches. A
comprehensive plan was developed and all system conversions and testing were
substantially completed as of December 31, 1998. The Company estimates its total
costs over the three-year period 1998 - 2000 will be approximately $136,000, of
which $107,000 has been incurred through March 31, 1999. None of these costs,
however, are expected to materially impact the results of operations in any one
reporting period. The Company believes that its plans for dealing with the year
2000 issue will result in timely and adequate modifications of its systems and
technology.

Ultimately, the potential impact of the year 2000 issue will depend not only on
the corrective measures the Company undertakes, but also on the way in which the
year 2000 issue is addressed by governmental agencies, businesses, and other
entities who provide data to, or receive data from the Bank or whose financial
condition or operational capability is important to the Company such as
suppliers or customers. Communications with significant customers and vendors
have been initiated to determine the extent of risk created by those third
parties' failure to remediate their own year 2000 issues. However, it is not
possible, at present, to determine the financial effect if significant customer
and/or vendor remediation efforts are not resolved in a timely manner.
