  REPUBLIC SECURITY FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
   NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                    September 30, 1995
(Unaudited)

1.   Basis of Presentation

          The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
     financial statements include the accounts of Republic Security
     Financial Corporation (the "Company" or "RSFC") and its
     wholly-owned subsidiary, Republic Security Bank (the "Bank").
     In the opinion of the Company's management, the financial
     statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal
     recurring accruals) considered necessary to present fairly the
     consolidated financial position of Republic Security Financial
     Corporation and its subsidiary as of September 30, 1995 and
     March 31, 1995, and the results of operations for the three
     and six months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, and changes
     in cash flows for the six months then ended.

          The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
     financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
     generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
     information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article
     10 of Regulations S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all
     of the information and footnotes required by generally
     accepted accounting principles for complete financial
     statements.  Operating results for the three and six months
     ended September 30, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the
     results that may be expected for the transitional period
     ending December 31, 1995 (see Note 7).  For further
     information, refer to the consolidated financial statements
     and footnotes thereto included in Republic Security Financial
     Corporation's annual report on Form 10K for the year ended
     March 31, 1995.

          The balance sheet at March 31, 1995 has been derived
     from the audited financial statements at that date but does
     not include all of the information and footnotes required by
     generally accepted accounting principles for complete
     financial statements.

2.   Non-Performing Assets and Allowances for Loan Losses

          At September 30, 1995, the Bank had non-performing
     assets (loans 60 days or more past due, real estate owned, and
     repossessed assets) of $5.0 million.  The total provision for
     loan losses for the Bank was $50,000 and $75,000 for the three
     months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.  In
     evaluating possible loan losses from non-performing assets,
     management has taken into consideration past loan loss
     experience, current economic conditions, workout arrangements,
     pending sales, the financial strength of the borrowers, the
     appraised value of the collateral, future cash flows expected
     to be received on impaired loans and other relevant factors. 
     Although management believes the allowance for possible losses
     is adequate, their evaluation of possible losses is a
     continuing process which may necessitate adjustments to the
     allowance in future periods.

<PAGE>
          Effective April 1, 1995, the Company adopted Financial
     Accounting Standards Board Statement No.114, "Accounting by
     Creditors for Impairment of a Loan."  Under the new standard,
     the 1995 allowance for credit losses related to loans that are
     identified for evaluation in accordance with Statement No. 114
     is based on discounted cash flows using the loan's initial
     effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral
     for certain collateral dependent loans.  Prior to 1995, the
     allowance for credit losses related to these loans was based
     on undiscounted cash flows or the fair value of the collateral
     for collateral dependent loans.  The adoption of this
     statement did not have a material impact on the operations of
     the Company.

          In accordance with Statement No. 114, a loan is
     classified as in-substance foreclosure when the Company has
     taken possession of the collateral regardless of whether
     formal foreclosure proceedings take place.  Loans previously
     classified as in-substance foreclosure but for which the
     Company had not taken possession of the collateral which
     totalled $1,329,000  at March 31, 1995 have been reclassified
     to loans. 

3.   Financial Accounting Standards Board No. 122 "Accounting for
     Mortgage Servicing Rights"

          On May 12, 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards
     Board issued Statement No. 122 "Accounting for Mortgage
     Servicing Rights", an amendment to Statement No. 65.  The
     Company elected to adopt this standard for financial statement
     reporting for the quarter ended June 30, 1995.  Statement No.
     122 prohibits retroactive application to prior years.  
     
          Statement No. 122 requires that a portion of the cost of
     originating a mortgage loan be allocated to the mortgage
     servicing right based on its fair value relative to the loan
     as a whole when the loan is purchased or originated for sale 
     with servicing retained.  To determine the fair value of 
     servicing rights created after the adoption of Statement 
     No. 122, the Company will use a valuation model that 
     calculates the present value of estimated future cash 
     flows.  This valuation method incorporates assumptions
     determined by the Company about the discount rate, 
     prepayment speeds, default and interest rates. 
     No servicing rights were recorded during the six months ended
     September 30, 1995 as the costs associated with the 
     mortgage servicing rights were immaterial.
     
4.   Redeemable Subordinated Debentures

          On March 29, 1995, the Company's outstanding redeemable
     subordinated debentures and cancelable mandatory stock
     purchase contracts were called for redemption.  Upon surrender
     of the Debentures, and at the option of the Bondholder, the
     Bondholder received a number of shares of the Company's common
     stock equal to the principal amount of the Debenture divided
     by the adjusted per share price of $2.90 or cash equal to 104%
     of the principal amount of the Debenture.  As a result of the
     redemption, 634,476 shares of common stock were issued, and
     shareholders' equity increased by $1,751,000.

<PAGE>

5.   Shareholders' Equity

          The Company granted stock options to purchase 700,000
     shares of the Company's common stock to two executives on May
     31, 1995 at various tiered vesting dates and option prices. 
     All unexercised options expire on May 31, 2005.

          On November 6, 1995, the Company canceled the stock
     option grants to purchase 700,000 shares of the Company's
     common stock.

6.   Segment Information

          During fiscal 1995, the Company reduced mortgage banking
     operations to a level that no longer warrants reporting these
     operations as a segment as defined by Statement of Accounting
     Standards No. 14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of a
     Business Enterprise".

          Currently the majority of mortgage banking related
     activities are incidental to the Bank's strategic plan and are
     performed in order to accommodate banking customer and market
     needs and as such, are included in non-interest income for the
     periods ending September 30, 1995 and 1994.

7.   Fiscal Year-End

          On July 26, 1995, the Company changed its fiscal year-
     end from March 31 to December 31.  A transition report will be
     filed on Form 10-K for the nine months ending December 31,
     1995. 

8.   Commitments and Contingencies

          Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a
     customer as long as there is no violation of any condition
     established in the contract.  Commitments generally have fixed
     expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require
     payment of a fee.  The total commitment amounts do not
     necessarily represent future cash requirements as some
     commitments expire without being drawn upon.  The Bank
     evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case by case
     basis.  The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary
     by the Bank upon extension of credit is based on management's
     credit evaluation of the counterparty.

          At September 30, 1995, the Bank had adjustable rate
     commitments to extend credit of $5.6 million excluding the
     undisbursed portion of loans  in process.  These commitments
     are primarily for one-to-four family residential properties.

          In July 1995, the Chairman of the Federal Deposit
     Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") announced in testimony before
     the Congress a proposal to recapitalize the Savings
     Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") by a one-time charge to
     SAIF members of approximately $6.6 billion, or approximately
     85 basis points ($.85 for every $100) of assessable deposits
     on March 31, 1995 and an eventual merger of the SAIF with the
     Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF").  The Company is unable to predict
     the likelihood of legislation effecting these changes,
     although a consensus among regulators, legislators and bankers
     appears to be developing in this regard.

          If the proposed assessment of $.85 per $100 of
     assessable deposits was effected based on deposits as of March
     31, 1995, as proposed, the Bank's pro rata share would amount
     to approximately $960,000 net of taxes, respectively.  Such an
     assessment, as currently proposed, would not be affected by
     the conversion of the Bank to a commercial bank and would have
     a material adverse effect on the Company's earnings and
     results of operations.

9.  Potential Acquisitions

          On September 7, 1995, the Company signed an agreement to
     acquire all of the outstanding capital stock of Banyan Bank, a
     Florida chartered bank ("Banyan") which is headquartered in
     Boca Raton, Florida.  At September 30, 1995 Banyan had
     approximately $49.6 million, $44.5 million and $4.6 million of
     total assets, deposits and capital, respectively.  Under the
     terms of the agreement, the Company will pay 207% of the first
     $4.6 million of Banyan's Tangible Equity (as defined in the
     agreement), plus 100% of any Tangible Equity in excess of $4.6
     million, as of the calendar month ended immediately prior to
     the closing of the transaction.  The acquisition, which will
     be accounted for as a purchase under generally accepted
     accounting principles, is subject to fulfillment of a number
     of conditions including regulatory approval.

          On October 3, 1995, the Company entered into an
     agreement with Century Bank, an unaffiliated thrift, to
     purchase one branch office located in West Palm Beach,
     Florida.  The amount to be paid by the Company to the seller
     for the transfer of the assets and liabilities of the branch
     shall be equal to approximately $1.1 million.  The acquisition
     will be accounted for as a purchase and this amount
     will be recorded as an intangible asset and will be amortized
     over seven years on a straight line basis.  In connection with
     the acquisition, the Bank will assume approximately $32.6
     million of deposit liabilities and $31.5 million of assets,
     including $12.5 million of adjustable rate single-family
     residential loans with an 8.25% yield and $19 million in cash. 
     The acquisition is expected to be consummated in December
     1995.  The acquired branch will be integrated into the Bank's
     existing branch network by combining this new office with an
     existing office in the vicinity.

10.  Subsequent Events

          On November 8, 1995, the Bank converted its charter from
     a federal savings bank to a State of Florida commercial bank
     and at the same time the Company became a Federal Reserve bank
     holding company.

          On November 10, 1995, the Company received $17.2 million
     in net proceeds related to the sale of 1,800,000 shares of
     common stock and 900,000 shares of 7% Cumulative Convertible
     Preferred Stock, Series C.  On November 14, 1995 the Company
     expects to receive approximately $2.6 million in net proceeds
     related to the exercise of overallotment options for 270,000
     shares of common stock and 135,000 shares of 7% Cumulative
     Convertible Preferred Stock, Series C.
