PREMIER BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)


Note 1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial information included herein is unaudited; however,
such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring
adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
statement of results for the interim periods.

The results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June
30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
full year.

Note 2.  BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

On June 23, 1997, Premier Bancshares, Inc. merged with Central and Southern
Holding Company ("Central and Southern") of Milledgeville, Georgia.  Each share
of Central and Southern's common stock issued and outstanding was converted into
and exchanged for the one share of Premier Bancshares, Inc.'s common stock.  The
merger was accounted for as a pooling of interests.  All financial information
has been restated to reflect the combined operations of Premier and Central and
Southern.

On August 31, 1996, First Alliance Bancorp, Inc. merged with Premier Bancshares,
Inc.  The merger was accounted for as a pooling of interests.  All financial
information has been restated to reflect the combined operations of First
Alliance Bancorp, Inc. and Premier Bancshares, Inc.

Note 3.  COMMON STOCK SPLIT

On February 24, 1997, Premier Bancshares, Inc. declared a 1.8055 stock split for
shares of record as of March 6, 1997.  The number of shares to effect he stock
split times the par value of $1 was transferred from capital surplus to common
stock on March 20, 1997.  All prior financial information has been restated to
reflect the stock split.

Note 4.  CURRENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per
Share."  SFAS No. 128 establishes standards for computing and presenting
earnings per share (EPS) and applies to entities with publicly held common stock
or potential common stock.  This statement simplifies the standards for
computing earnings per share previously found in APB Opinion No. 15, Earnings
per Share, and makes them comparable to international EPS standards.  It
replaces the presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS.  It
also requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the
statement of income for all entities with complex capital structures and
requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS
computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation.
The effective date of this Statement is for financial statements issued for the
periods ending after December 15, 1997.  The adoption of this Statement is not
expected to have a material effect on earnings per share.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity management involves the matching of the cash flow requirements of
customers who may be either depositors desiring to withdraw funds or borrowers
needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit
needs and the ability of the Company to meet those needs. The Company seeks to
meet liquidity requirements primarily through management of short-term
investments (principally Federal Funds sold and overnight funds), monthly
amortizing loans, repayment of single payment loans, periodic repayments of
mortgage backed securities, and draws on lines of credit.  In addition, at June
30, 1997, Premier Bank  and  Central and Southern Bank had $14 million in
approved Federal Funds lines with correspondent banks which could provide funds
on an immediate basis if the need arose.  Also, Premier Bank has access to
various Certificate of Deposit ("CD") networks which would allow it to raise
deposits from credit unions and other small banks for varying time periods at
rates comparable to the short-term U.S. Government Bond rate. These deposits are
not brokered and no fee outside of the market rate is paid.

Premier Bank and the Central and Southern Banks are members of the Federal Home
Loan Bank system.  At June 30, 1997,the Company had the ability to borrow
approximately $26 million by pledging qualifying loans and securities as
collateral.

The liquidity and capital resources of the Company are monitored on a periodic
basis by federal regulatory authorities. In addition, management performs
liquidity analyses in the same manner as the federal regulatory agencies. As of
June 30, 1997, the various liquidity ratios were considered adequate by
regulatory definitions. In management's opinion, the Company maintained
liquidity that was adequate to meet its respective needs.

Premier Bank and Central and Southern Banks continue to be well-capitalized by
both industry and regulatory definitions. At June 30, 1997, The Company's
consolidated capital ratios were as follows:

Management is not aware of any current recommendations of the regulatory
authorities which, if they were implemented, would have a material effect on the
Company's liquidity, capital resources or operations.

The Company regularly evaluates business combination opportunities and conducts
due diligence activities in connection with possible business combinations. As a
result, business combination discussions and, in some cases, negotiations take
place, and future business combinations involving cash, debt or equity
securities may be expected. Any future business combination or series of
business combinations that the Company might undertake may be material, in terms
of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, to the Company's financial condition.

Asset/Liability Management

At June 30, 1997, the Company, utilizing a ''static gap'' view of interest
sensitivity, was positioned in an asset-sensitive position  at three months, six
months,  and a slightly liability-sensitive position  at one year. This ''static
gap'' view of interest rate sensitivity at a point in time looks at the volume
of assets and liabilities that will mature or reprice within varying time
periods. Such a view does not necessarily indicate the impact of general
interest rate movements on the net interest margin since the repricing of
various categories of assets and liabilities is subject to competitive pressures
and the needs of the Company's customers. It is also probable that actual
repricing may happen at different times than estimated and at different rates
than anticipated.

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION


CASH AND SHORT-TERM ASSETS

Total assets increased by $67,500,000 at June 30, 1997 since December 31, 1996.
Non-earning cash and due from banks increased $2,300,000 at June 30, 1997 from
December 31, 1996.  This change is representative of normal daily fluctuations
in cash and check clearings.  Interest-earning deposits in other banks increased
$6,200,000 from December 31, 1996 to a balance of $8,870,000 at June 30, 1997.
This balance is primarily excess funds that are held at the Federal Home Loan
Bank and accrue interest at a rate approximately equal to the Federal Funds
rate.  Federal Funds sold decreased $22,800,000 from December 31, 1996 to June
30, 1997.  The decrease in Federal Funds is primarily the result of an increase
in loans outstanding  during the first six months of 1997 and the above noted
increase in the Federal Home Loan Bank account balance.

Total assets as of December 31, 1996 increased $74,600,000 since December 31,
1995. The majority of the growth was in loans outstanding.  Loan demand in the
markets served by the Company was strong during 1996.

</TABLE>

(1)  Includes mortgage-backed securities based on their contractual maturity
     date.
(2)  Yields on municipal securities have been computed on a tax equivalent
     basis.
(3)  Yields were computed using coupon interest, adding discount accretion, or
     subtracting premium amortization, as appropriate, on a ratable basis over
     the life of each security.  The weighted average yield for each maturity
     range was computed using the carrying value of each security in that range.

The Company's investment portfolio consists of U.S. Government and agency
securities, municipal securities, various equity securities and Government
agency sponsored mortgage-backed securities.  A mortgage-backed security relies
on the underlying mortgage pools of loans to provide a cash flow of principal
and interest.  The actual maturities of these securities will differ from the
contractual maturities because these borrowers may have the right to prepay
obligations with or without prepayment penalties.  Decreases in interest rates
will generally cause prepayments to accelerate.  In a declining interest rate
environment, the Company may not be able to reinvest the proceeds from these
prepayments in assets which  have comparable yields.  However, because the
<PAGE>
 
majority of the mortgage-backed securities have adjustable rates, the negative
effects of changes in interest rates on earnings and the carrying values of
these securities are mitigated.  At June 30, 1997, the Company had $10,730,000
in collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMOs") and $34,046,000 in mortgage-
backed pass-through securities of which 49% have variable interest rates and the
majority are issued by or backed by Federal agencies.

At December 31, 1996, the Company had $14,568,000 in collateralized mortgage
obligations ("CMOs") and $36,225,000 in mortgage-backed pass-through securities.


CHANGES IN SECURITIES PORTFOLIO

Securities available-for-sale decreased $26,000 on June 30, 1997 from December
31, 1996.

Securities available-for-sale on December 31, 1996 decreased $10,579,000 from
December 31, 1995.  In the first quarter of 1996, Premier Bank sold
approximately $10,000,000 in securities from the available-for-sale portfolio.
These sales represented the termination of an arbitrage transaction made up of
these assets and various floating rate deposits and borrowings.  These
securities were primarily floating rate collateralized mortgage obligations and
mortgage-backed passthroughs.  The proceeds from the sale of securities provided
funding for the increase in loans.

LOAN PORTFOLIO

TYPES OF LOANS

Management realizes that the Company's loan portfolio is concentrated in loans
secured by real estate.  Real estate loans include real estate mortgages, real
estate construction projects, and consumer home equity lines.  The amount of
loans outstanding at the indicated dates are shown in the following table
according to the type of loan.  The other concentration is in commercial,
financial and agricultural loans which are made primarily to businesses in the
Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan area.  The following table presents this major
category of net loans for each period, excluding the allowance for loan losses
and mortgage loans held for sale.

CHANGES IN LOAN PORTFOLIO 

Loans held for sale increased $15,925,000 from December 31, 1996 to June 30,
1997. These loans represent first mortgage loans which have been originated by
Premier Lending and have been sold to third party investors and are waiting for
funding from the investor. This balance fluctuates based on time of month, new
loan volume and length of investor closing periods. Other loans grew by
$65,000,000 at June 30, 1997 from December 31, 1996. The primary reason for this
continued growth in loans is due to the continued strong loan demand and
consolidation of regional and community banks in the Atlanta metropolitan area.
Loans grew by $66,300,000 at December 31, 1996 from December 31, 1995. In
addition, at December 31, 1996, construction loans increased $36,394,000, real
estate mortgage loans increased $27,850,000, commercial loans increased
$3,499,000, and consumer loans decreased $1,399,000 from December 31, 1995. The
primary reason for these increases was the addition of five experienced real
estate and commercial loan officers. Loan officers at Premier Lending generate
loans that are specifically underwritten by Premier Bank. In prior periods, the
majority of these loans were sold to third party financial institutions.

CHANGES IN DEPOSITS

Total deposits grew by $40,400,000 at June 30, 1997 from December 31, 1996 as
the Company continues to gain market share through its expansion program as well
as its quality service program.
<PAGE>
 
Total deposits grew $73,00,000 at December 31, 1996 from December 31, 1995.
Premier Bank aggressively marketed for deposits in several key submarkets in the
Company's market area and entered several new markets during the period.

OTHER BORROWINGS

Other borrowings grew $23,847,000 from December 31, 1996 to June 30, 1997.  The
increase was primarily due to the purchase of seasoned $15,000,000 floating rate
mortgage loans and a temporary increase of $10,000,000 in mortgage loans held
for sale at the end of the second quarter.  This mortgage held for sale increase
was due to increased production and timing of investor funding on several large
sales.  Management expects that these temporary increases in the held for sale
balances will occur and funding sources are in place to manage.

</TABLE>

Accrual of interest income is normally discontinued on loans when they become 90
days past due or, in the opinion of management, collection of interest becomes
doubtful.  When a loan is determined to be impaired, all interest previously
accrued but not collected is reversed against current interest income.  Accrual
of interest on such loans is resumed when, in management's judgment, the
collection of interest and principal becomes probable.

In the opinion of management, any loans classified by regulatory authorities as
doubtful, substandard, or special mention that have not been included in the
table above do not represent or result from trends or uncertainties which
management reasonably expects will materially impact future operating results,
liquidity, or capital resources.  These classified loans do not represent (i)
material credits about which management is aware or (ii) any information which
causes management to have serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to
comply with the loan repayment terms.  Any loans classified by regulatory
authorities as loss are charged off at the time such loans are identified.

Commitments and Lines of Credit

The Company enters into residential construction and commercial loan commitments
in advance of closing to fund loans to its customers at locked-in interest rates
in the normal course of business.  These instruments, to the extent they are not
covered by investor purchase commitments, involve credit and interest rate risk
in excess of the amount recognized in the financial statements.

In the normal course of business, the Company has entered into off-balance-sheet
financial instruments which are not reflected in the financial statements.
These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby
letters of credit.  Such financial instruments are included in the financial
statements when funds are disbursed or the instruments become payable.  These
instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of
the amount recognized in the balance sheet.

The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the
other party to the financial instrument for unfunded mortgage loan commitments,
residential construction, and commercial loans commitments to extend credit and
standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those
instruments.  A summary of the Company's commitments is as follows:

Summary of Loan Loss Experience

The provision for possible loan losses is created by direct charges and credits
to operations.  Losses on loans are charged against the allowance in the period
in which such loans, in management's opinion, become uncollectible.  Recoveries
during the period are credited to the allowance.  The factors that influence
management's judgment in determining the amount charged to operating expense are
past loan loss experience, composition of the loan portfolio, evaluation of
possible future losses, current economic conditions, and other relevant facts.
The allowance for loan losses is reviewed regularly based on management's
evaluation of current risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, as well as the
impact of prevailing and expected economic business conditions.  Management
considers the allowance for loan loss adequate to cover possible loan losses on
the loans outstanding.

Premier is a bank holding company that is the result of the acquisition of six
financial institutions acquired over the last five years.  Each institution
utilized various methodologies to determine loan loss allowance adequacy.  The
methodologies utilized by current management are, in the opinion of management,
appropriate for the allowance adequacy determination at June 30, 1997.
Considering the primary factor that the economy in general and the Atlanta
metropolitan market in specific is performing in an outstanding manner,
management realizes and provides for any deterioration of the economy in the
future.  At this time, management expects charge-offs in 1997 to be consistent
with 1996.

The allowance for loan losses could be allocated in the following manner for
June 30, 1997 and at December 31, for the following years:

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

Under normal circumstances, this expense is used to establish the allowance for
loan losses.  Actual loan losses, net of recoveries, are charged directly to the
allowance. Expense recorded is a reflection of actual losses experienced during
the year and management's judgment as to the adequacy of the allowance to absorb
future losses.
<PAGE>
 
The Company did not make a provision for loan losses during 1996.  Instead, the
Company made negative provisions which amounted to $418,000 for the year.  The
negative provisions were based on the net recovery stream of previously charged
off loans which amounted to $994,000 for the year.

The Company did not make a provision for loan losses during 1995.  Instead, the
Company made negative provisions which amounted to $700,000 for the year.  The
negative provisions were based on the net recovery stream of previously charged
off loans which amounted to $784,000 for the year.

Management's analysis of the allowance for loan losses, nonperforming assets,
and net recoveries on a monthly basis concluded that the allowance was more than
adequate given the risk resident within the loan portfolio.   The allowance as a
percent of total loans is 1.84%, nonperforming loans to total loans are .27%,
and net recoveries as a percent of average loans (net of unearned interest) were
 .16% for the six months ended June 30, 1997.

of 38% in  per share earnings.

The Company reported record annual earnings of $5,494,000 for the year ended
December 31, 1996.  This amount was an increase of $946,000 or 21% from the
previous year's net income. This figure included merger expenses, data
processing conversion expenses, severance expenses, as well as the special SAIF
fund recapitalization assessment.

Average loans include nonaccrual loans and are stated net of unearned income.
Income on nonaccrual loans is recognized on the cash basis.
Nontaxable securites income is presented on a fully taxable equivalent basis.

Net interest income increased $1,121,000 in the second quarter of 1997 compared
with the second quarter of 1996.  The primary reason for the increased income
was an increase of $79,396,000 in average earning assets as compared with June
30, 1996.  The net interest margin increased to 4.83% from 4.70% in comparable
periods.


Net interest income increased $1,528,000 in the first six months of 1997
compared with the first six months of 1996.  The primary reason for the
increased income was an increase of $77,449,000 in average earning assets as
compared with June 30, 1996.  The net interest margin increased to 4.67% from
4.50% for the comparable periods.

Net interest income increased by $3,018,000 during fiscal 1996.  The following
table reflects the changes in net interest income resulting from changes in
interest rates and from asset and liability volume.  The change in interest
attributable to rate has been determined by applying the change in rate between
years to average balances outstanding in the earlier year.  The change in
interest due to volume has been determined by applying the rate from the earlier
year to change in average balances outstanding between years.  Thus, changes
that are not solely due to rate or volume have been consistently allocated
between rate and volume.

resulted in a gain of $757,000.
