NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

Substantially all of the assets, liabilities and operations of LCNB Corp. ("LCNB") are attributable to its wholly-owned subsidiaries, LCNB National Bank (the "Bank") and Dakin Insurance Agency, Inc. ("Dakin"). The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LCNB, the Bank, and Dakin.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, which have been reviewed by J.D. Cloud & Co. L.L.P., LCNB’s independent registered public accounting firm, in accordance with standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, as indicated by their report included herein and which does not express an opinion on those statements, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods, as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01.

Share and per share data have been restated to reflect a 100% stock dividend, accounted for as a stock split, declared by the Board of Directors on April 10, 2007 and issued on May 10, 2007 to shareholders of record on April 25, 2007.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2008. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, accounting policies, and financial notes thereto included in LCNB's 2007 Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

Note 2 – Acquisitions

At the close of business on December 20, 2007, LCNB acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Sycamore National Bank (“Sycamore”), a commercial bank with two offices located in Cincinnati, Ohio, in a stock and cash transaction totaling approximately $9.6 million. LCNB incurred an additional $256,000 in transaction costs related to this acquisition. At the time of the acquisition, Sycamore was merged with and into the Bank and Sycamore’s two offices became offices of the Bank. The acquisition of Sycamore was accounted for using the purchase accounting method and its results of operations are included in the consolidated financial results of LCNB from the acquisition date. This acquisition added approximately $42.8 million in loans, $5.7 million in goodwill, $343,000 in core deposit intangibles, and $44.4 million in deposits to LCNB’s consolidated balance sheet. The core deposit intangible is being amortized on a straight-line basis over six years.

The change in the carrying amount of goodwill, all of which is related to the Sycamore acquisition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 is as follows (thousands):


Balance, December 31, 2007	$	5,742
Net adjustments		(47)
Balance, September 30, 2008	$	5,695

The net adjustments relate primarily to finalization of various liabilities established at the time of the acquisition for certain merger related costs related to severance and personnel related charges, professional fees, contract termination costs, systems conversion, and related charges.

The total liability established at the time of acquisition was approximately $435,000. The amount utilized during 2007 was approximately $27,000 and an additional $362,000 was utilized during the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The remainder of the liability was adjusted to goodwill during the nine month period ended September 30, 2008.

The following information presents the unaudited pro forma results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 as though the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2007. The pro forma data was derived by combining the historical consolidated financial information of LCNB and Sycamore using the purchase method of accounting for business combinations. The pro forma results do not necessarily indicate results that would have been obtained had the acquisition actually occurred on January 1, 2007 or results that may be achieved in the future (in thousands, except per share data):

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is adjusted for the dilutive effects of stock options. The diluted average number of common shares outstanding has been increased for the assumed exercise of stock options with proceeds used to purchase treasury shares at the average market price for the period. The computations were as follows (in thousands, except share and per share data):

Note 4 - Investment Securities (continued)

Information concerning securities with gross unrealized losses at September 30, 2008, aggregated by length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous loss position, is as follows (in thousands):


		Less than Twelve Months		Twelve Months or Greater
		Fair Value	Unrealized Losses	Fair Value	Unrealized Losses

U.S. Agency notes	$	7,888	107	-	-

	$	35,764	690	6,453	71

The unrealized losses are primarily due to increases in market interest rates. Unrealized losses on securities at September 30, 2008 have not been recognized into income currently because management has the intent and ability to hold the securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair values. Therefore, no individual declines are deemed to be other than temporary.

Note 5 - Loans (continued)

Non-accrual, past-due, and restructured loans as of September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 were as follows (in thousands):


			September 30,	December 31,
			2008		2007
Non-accrual loans		$	2,426		120

	Total	$	2,864		2,589
Percent to total loans			0.64%		0.58%

Non-accrual loans at September 30, 2008 consisted primarily of a commercial real estate loan that had been classified as restructured at December 31, 2007. The balance of this loan at September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 was $2,196,000 and $2,198,000, respectively. It was classified as restructured at December 31, 2007 because of LCNB’s agreement during the second quarter 2007 to accept interest only payments monthly for a period of one year, pending the sale of the underlying real estate collateral. The loan was classified as non-accrual during the second quarter 2008 because the collateral property remained unsold after being on the market for approximately one year and because the borrower does not have the financial ability to make payments according to the original loan terms. The borrower is continuing efforts to sell the property. The remaining balance of non-accrual loans at September 30, 2008 and all non-accrual loans at December 31, 2007 consisted of real estate mortgage loans.

Loans past-due 90 days or more and still accruing interest at September 30, 2008 consisted of a commercial real estate loan totaling approximately $203,000 and consumer and residential mortgage loans. Loans past-due 90 days or more and still accruing interest at December 31, 2007 consisted of consumer and residential mortgage loans.

In addition to the commercial real estate loan described above, restructured loans at December 31, 2007 consisted of a matured home equity line of credit currently being paid under a forbearance agreement. This home equity line of credit was the only loan classified as restructured at September 30, 2008.

Real estate acquired through foreclosure, which is included in “other assets” in the consolidated balance sheets, was $853,000 at December 31, 2007 and consisted of two single-family residential homes, both of which were sold during the first half of 2008. LCNB did not have any real estate acquired at September 30, 2008.

Loans sold to and serviced for others are not included in the accompanying balance sheets. The unpaid principal balances of those loans at September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 were $38,571,000 and $43,005,000, respectively. Loans sold to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 totaled $81,000 and $814,000, respectively, and $511,000 and $2,517,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively.

Note 6 - Fair Value Measurements

LCNB adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” and SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” on January 1, 2008. SFAS No. 159 permits, but does not require, companies to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The decision to elect the fair value option is made individually for each instrument and is irrevocable once made. Changes in fair value for the selected instruments are recorded in earnings. LCNB has not selected any financial instruments for the fair value option as of September 30, 2008.

SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure requirements about fair value measurements. It establishes a fair value hierarchy to prioritize the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three broad input levels defined by SFAS No. 157 are:

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the reporting date;

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 - inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability.

Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices (such as interest rates or yield curves) that are observable for the asset or liability, and inputs that are derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

All of LCNB’s financial debt securities are classified as available-for-sale as described in SFAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.” The securities are reported at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses reported net of income taxes in accumulated other comprehensive income.

LCNB utilizes a pricing service for determining the fair values of most of its investment securities. Fair value for most of the investment securities is calculated using the discounted cash flow method for each security. The discount rates for these cash flows are estimated by the pricing service using rates observed in the market (level 2). Cash flow streams are dependent on estimated prepayment speeds and the overall structure of the securities given existing market conditions. In addition, approximately $501,000 is invested in a mutual fund. LCNB uses the fair value estimate provided by the mutual fund company, which uses market quotations when such quotes are available and good faith judgment when market quotations are not available. Because LCNB does not know the portion of the mutual fund valued using market quotations and the portion valued using good faith judgment, the entire investment in the mutual fund has been classified as a level 3 investment. Additionally, Dakin owns stock in an insurance company and market quotations (level 1) are used to determine fair value for this investment. The following table summarizes the valuation of LCNB’s available-for-sale securities by the input levels defined by SFAS No. 157 as of September 30, 2008 (thousands):

Available-for-sale securities	$	136,610	13	136,096	501

The following table is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of recurring fair value measurements that use significant unobservable inputs (level 3) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 (thousands):

Purchases		-		500
Dividends reinvested		5		16
Net change in unrealized gains (losses) included in other comprehensive income		1		(15)
Ending balance	$	501		501

Assets that may be recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include impaired loans and real estate acquired through foreclosure. A loan is considered impaired when management believes it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans are carried at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or the fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent, if this value is less than the loan balance. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or current appraised value, the valuation is considered a level 2 fair value. When an appraised value is not available and there is not an observable market price, the resulting valuation is considered a level 3 fair value. The table below presents LCNB’s impaired loans measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of September 30, 2008 by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall (in thousands):

Impaired loans	$	2,181	-	-	2,181

Real estate acquired through foreclosure is adjusted to fair value upon transfer of the loan to foreclosed assets, usually based on an appraisal of the property. Subsequently, foreclosed assets are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value. A valuation based on current appraised value is considered a level 2 fair value. LCNB did not have real estate acquired at September 30, 2008.

Note 7 – Borrowings

LCNB has a $5 million advance from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati. It was obtained in March, 2007 and has a term of ten years. Interest is payable monthly at a fixed rate of 5.25%. The loan is secured by a blanket pledge of LCNB’s 1-4 family first lien mortgage loans.

At September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, short-term borrowings consisted of U.S. Treasury demand note borrowings totaling $1,645,000 and $1,459,000, respectively. The interest rate on the U.S. Treasury demand note borrowings is variable and was 1.09% and 3.59% at September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.

Note 8 – Regulatory Capital

The Bank and LCNB are required by regulators to meet certain minimum levels of capital adequacy. These are expressed in the form of certain ratios. Capital is separated into Tier 1 capital (essentially shareholders' equity less goodwill and other intangibles) and Tier 2 capital (essentially the allowance for loan losses limited to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets). The first two ratios, which are based on the degree of credit risk in LCNB's assets, provide for weighting assets based on assigned risk factors and include off-balance sheet items such as stand-by letters of credit. The ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets must be at least 4.0% and the ratio of Total capital (Tier 1 capital plus Tier 2 capital) to risk-weighted assets must be at least 8.0%. The capital leverage ratio supplements the risk-based capital guidelines. Banks are required to maintain a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to adjusted quarterly average total assets of 3.0%.

Note 8 – Regulatory Capital (continued)

For various regulatory purposes, financial institutions are classified into categories based upon capital adequacy. The highest "well-capitalized" category requires capital ratios of at least 10% for total risk-based, 6% for Tier 1 risk-based, and 5% for leverage. As of the most recent notification from their regulators, the Bank and LCNB were categorized as "well-capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. Management believes that no conditions or events have occurred since the last notification that would change the Bank's or LCNB's category. A summary of the regulatory capital and capital ratios of LCNB follows (dollars in thousands):


				At		At
				September 30,	December 31,

	Leverage (required 3.00%)			8.26%		9.22%

Note 9 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

LCNB is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. They involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets. Exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other parties to financial instruments for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contract amount of those instruments.

LCNB uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent off-balance-sheet credit risk at September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 were as follows (in thousands):

Demand and NOW accounts		10,473		9,853
Standby letters of credit		8,133		8,404
	$	96,248		98,275

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. Unused lines of credit include amounts not drawn in line of credit loans. Commitments to extend credit and unused lines of credit generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. At September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, outstanding guarantees of $1.8 million and $2.1 million, respectively, were issued to developers and contractors. These guarantees generally are fully secured and have varying maturities. In addition, LCNB has a participation in a letter of credit securing payment of principal and interest on a bond issue. The participation amount at September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 was approximately $6.3 million. The agreement has a final maturity date of January 2012.

LCNB evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary, is based on management's credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable; inventory; property, plant and equipment; residential realty; and income-producing commercial properties.

Material commitments for capital expenditures outstanding as of September 30, 2008 totaled approximately $1,260,000 and related primarily to the construction of a new branch facility in Centerville, Ohio and the acquisition of a vacant lot for future expansion. It also includes information technology upgrades and purchases of furniture and equipment.

Management believes that LCNB has sufficient liquidity to fund its lending and capital expenditure commitments.

Note 10 - Stock Options

Under the Ownership Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), LCNB may grant stock-based awards to eligible employees. The awards may be in the form of stock options, share awards, and/or appreciation rights. The Plan provides for the issuance of up to 200,000 shares. As of September 30, 2008, only stock options have been granted under the Plan. Options granted to date vest ratably over a five year period and expire ten years after the date of grant. Stock options outstanding at September 30, 2008 were as follows:

Note 10 - Stock Options (continued)

There was no aggregate intrinsic value (the amount by which the current market value of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of the option) for options outstanding at September 30, 2008 because no options were “in the money” (market price greater than exercise price) at that date. The intrinsic value changes based on changes in the market value of LCNB’s stock.

The estimated weighted-average fair value of the options granted in the first quarter of 2008 and 2007 were $2.27 and $3.76 per option, respectively. The fair value was estimated at the dates of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and the following assumptions:


	2008	2007
Risk-free interest rate	3.56%	4.83%
Average dividend yield	3.77%	3.68%

Total expense related to options included in salaries and wages in the consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 were $8,000 and $23,000, respectively and $6,000 and $18,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively.

Note 12 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141R”), was issued in December 2007 and replaces SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations.” It applies to all transactions or other events in which an entity obtains control over one or more businesses. SFAS No. 141R retains the fundamental requirement in SFAS No. 141 that the acquisition method of accounting, previously called the purchase method of accounting, be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. SFAS No. 141R requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at their fair values as of the acquisition date. This fair value approach replaces SFAS No. 141’s cost-allocation process, which required that the cost of an acquisition be allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value. Any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree are also required to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 141R requires acquirers to expense direct acquisition-related costs as incurred. SFAS No. 141 permitted that such costs be added to the cost of the acquisition. This statement makes significant changes to other accounting practices for business combinations, including but not limited to accounting for step acquisitions, accounting for contingent liabilities arising from a business combination, accounting for research and development assets acquired in a business combination, and accounting for deferred taxes acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R applies prospectively to business combinations with an acquisition date on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is not permitted. LCNB will be required to apply SFAS No. 141R for any business combinations with an acquisition date on or after January 1, 2009.

SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51,” was issued in December 2007 and amends Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements.” SFAS No. 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest, also called minority interest, in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This statement is to be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. LCNB owns 100% of its subsidiaries and is not affected by SFAS No. 160.

SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133,” was issued in March, 2008 and changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements, including both fiscal years and interim periods, issued after November 15, 2008. Early application is encouraged. LCNB does not own securities of the type covered by this statement and is not affected by it.

SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,” was issued in May, 2008. It identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. SFAS No. 162 is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” Management does not expect that the adoption of SFAS No. 162 will have a material effect on LCNB’s consolidated financial statements.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position FAS 157-2 in February 2008. It delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). The new effective date for such assets and liabilities is deferred to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008.

FASB Staff Position EITF 03-6-1 (“FSP EITF 03-6-1) was issued in June 2008. It clarifies that unvested share-based awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, whether paid or unpaid, are participating securities and must be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. FSP EITF -3-6-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and early adoption is not permitted. All previously reported earnings per share data will be retrospectively adjusted to conform with the provisions of FSP EITF 03-6-1. Management does not believe that the adoption of FSP EITF 03-6-1 will have a material effect on LCNB’s consolidated financial statements.

On September 30, 2008, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Office of the Chief Accountant and the FASB staff issued a joint release providing guidance in determining fair value measurements under SFAS No. 157 when a market for a financial asset is not active. FASB Staff Position FAS 157-3 was issued on October 10, 2008 and was effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements had not been issued. It clarifies the application of SFAS No. 157 when the market for a financial asset is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset whose market is not active. Both documents clarify that, when an active market for a security does not exist, the use of management estimates that incorporate current market participant expectations of future cash flows and include appropriate risk premiums is acceptable. Management does not believe that the guidance in these documents will have a material effect on LCNB’s consolidated financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders

LCNB Corp. and subsidiaries

Lebanon, Ohio

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of LCNB Corp. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2008, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for each of the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, and the related consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of LCNB Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated February 27, 2008, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2007, is fairly stated in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Forward Looking Statements

Certain matters disclosed herein may be deemed to be forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Forward looking statements are statements that include projections, predictions, expectations or beliefs about future events or results or otherwise are not statements of historical fact. Such statements are often characterized by the use of qualifying words and their derivatives such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “plans,” “projects,” or other statements concerning opinions or judgments of LCNB and its management about future events. Factors that could influence the accuracy of such forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, regulatory policy changes, interest rate fluctuations, loan demand, loan delinquencies and losses, general economic conditions and other risks.

Acquisition

At the close of business on December 20, 2007, LCNB acquired Sycamore National Bank (“Sycamore”) in a stock and cash transaction valued at approximately $9.6 million. Sycamore operated two full–service branches in Cincinnati, Ohio, which became branches of the Bank. As of December 20, 2007, Sycamore had total deposits of $44.4 million and total assets of $48.9 million including total loans, net of the related allowance for loan losses, of $42.8 million.

Under the terms of the affiliation agreement, each share of Sycamore common stock was exchanged for, at the election of each shareholder, $33.75 in cash, 2.444 shares of LCNB common stock, or a combination of cash and shares. A Sycamore shareholder’s election to receive cash or stock was subject to allocation procedures that ensured that, in the aggregate, 50% of the shares of Sycamore common stock were exchanged for cash and 50% were exchanged for stock.

The transaction, which was accounted for under the purchase accounting method, included the recognition of approximately $343,000 of core deposit intangibles and goodwill, as adjusted during the first half of 2008, of $5,695,000. The goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets, including the core deposit intangible. The core deposit intangible is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 6 years. Goodwill is not amortized, but is instead subject to an annual review for impairment. Sycamore’s results of operations are included in the consolidated financial results of LCNB from the acquisition date.

Results of Operations

LCNB earned $1,794,000 or $0.27 basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2008, compared to $1,370,000 or $0.22 basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2007. The return on average assets (ROAA) for the third quarter 2008 was 1.09% and the return on average equity (ROAE) was 12.27%, compared with an ROAA of 0.99% and an ROAE of 10.47% for the third quarter of 2007.

LCNB earned $4,936,000 or $0.74 basic and diluted earnings per share during the first nine months of 2008 compared to $4,365,000 or $0.69 basic and diluted earnings per share for the first nine months of 2007. The ROAA and ROAE for the first nine months of 2008 were 1.05% and 11.38%, respectively. The comparable ratios for the first nine months of 2007 were 1.07% and 11.28%, respectively.

The increase in net income for each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008 compared to 2007 was primarily attributed to an increase in net interest income and non-interest income, partially offset by an increase in non-interest expense. Net interest income during 2008 was significantly influenced by the loans and deposits acquired from Sycamore as well as the positive effect of declining market interest rates. Non-interest expenses during 2008 were influenced by the addition of the two offices acquired through the Sycamore acquisition and the opening of a new office in Oakwood, Ohio in May 2007.

While not immune from the effects of weakening economic conditions, LCNB’s earnings reflect continued relatively strong asset quality resulting from responsible underwriting and lending practices. Consequently, net charge-offs for the first nine months of 2008 and 2007 totaled $322,000 and $157,000, respectively. Classified loans (non-accrual, past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest, and restructured loans) totaled $2,864,000 or 0.64% of total loans at September 30, 2008, compared to $2,589,000 or 0.58% of total loans at December 31, 2007. In addition, LCNB does not own any common or preferred stock in the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation or the Federal National Mortgage Association.

Net Interest Income

Three Months Ended September 30, 2008 vs. 2007.

LCNB's primary source of earnings is net interest income, which is the difference between earnings from loans and other investments and interest paid on deposits and other liabilities.

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

Operations (continued)

Net interest income on a fully tax-equivalent basis for the three months ended September 30, 2008 totaled $5,591,000, an increase of $970,000 from the comparable period in 2007. Total interest income increased $728,000 and total interest expense decreased $242,000.

The increase in total interest income was due to a $98.2 million increase in average earning assets, partially offset by a 57 basis point (one basis point equals 0.01%) decrease in the average rate earned on earning assets. The increase in interest earning assets was primarily due to a $48.4 million increase in average loans, a $10.1 million increase in average federal funds sold and interest-bearing demand deposits, and a $35.1 million increase in average investment securities. Most of the loan growth was in commercial and residential real estate loans, primarily resulting from the Sycamore acquisition. The decrease in the average rate earned on earning assets was primarily due to general decreases in market interest rates.

The decrease in total interest expense was primarily due to an 83 basis point decrease in the average rate paid, partially offset by a $94.5 million increase in average interest-bearing liabilities. The decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities was primarily due to general decreases in market interest rates. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities was due to average interest-bearing deposits, which increased $94.8 million due to deposits obtained through the Sycamore acquisition and through organic growth in deposits.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2008 vs. 2007.

-29-

LCNB CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

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

Operations (continued)

The increase in total interest income was primarily due to a $76.6 million increase in average total earning assets, partially offset by a 40 basis point decrease in the average rate earned on earning assets. The increase in average earning assets was primarily due to a $53.8 million increase in average loans and a $14.9 million increase in average federal funds sold and interest-bearing demand deposits. Most of the loan growth was in commercial and residential real estate loans, primarily resulting from the Sycamore acquisition. The decrease in the average rate earned on earning assets was primarily due to general decreases in market interest rates.

The decrease in total interest expense was due primarily to a 51 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, largely offset by a $73.4 million increase in average interest-bearing liabilities. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities was due to a $75.7 million increase in average interest-bearing deposits due to deposits obtained through the Sycamore acquisition and through organic growth.

Provision and Allowance For Loan Losses

The total provision for loan losses is determined based upon management's evaluation as to the amount needed to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level considered appropriate in relation to the risk of losses inherent in the portfolio. In addition to historic charge-off percentages, factors taken into consideration to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses include the nature, volume, and consistency of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, a review of specific problem loans, and current economic conditions that may affect borrowers’ ability to pay. The provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was $188,000 and $75,000, respectively, and $322,000 and $158,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The provision increased in the 2008 periods because of an increase in impaired loans.

Non -Interest Income

Three Months Ended September 30, 2008 vs. 2007.

Non-interest income for the third quarter of 2008 was $86,000 greater than for the same period in 2007. Service charges and fees increased approximately $88,000, insurance agency income increased $29,000, and bank owned life insurance income increased $17,000. These increases were partially offset by a $29,000 decrease in trust income and a $19,000 decrease in other operating income. Service charges and fees increased primarily due to increases in checkcard income and overdraft fees. Checkcard income grew because a greater number of cards were outstanding, partially due to the Sycamore acquisition, and because of the increasing popularity of checkcards as a retail payment method. Overdraft fees increased primarily due to an increase in the number of checking and NOW accounts outstanding, partially due to the Sycamore acquisition. Trust income decreased partially due to a decrease in executor fees received during the third quarter of 2008 as compared to the third quarter 2007 as well as a general decrease in the fair market value of trust assets serviced, upon which fees are based.

LCNB CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

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

Operations (continued)

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2008 vs. 2007.

Non-interest income for the first nine months of 2008 was $210,000 greater than for the same period in 2007. Service charges and fees increased $162,000 primarily due to increases in checkcard income for substantially the same reasons discussed above. In addition, insurance agency income for the first nine months of 2008 was $53,000 greater than the comparable period in 2007 and bank owned life insurance income was $46,000 greater. Partially offsetting these increases was a $56,000 decrease in other operating income, largely due to a $34,000 decrease in gains from loans sold. The decrease in gains from loans sold was largely due to the decreased volume of loans sold, from $2,517,000 in 2007 to $814,000 in 2008. Also contributing to the decrease in other operating income was a $10,000 loss on the sale of real estate acquired through foreclosure recognized during the second quarter 2008.

Non-Interest Expense

Three Months Ended September 30, 2008 vs. 2007.

Total non-interest expense increased $300,000 during the third quarter 2008 as compared to the third quarter 2007 primarily due to a $232,000 increase in salaries and wages, a $65,000 increase in pension and other employee benefits, and a $137,000 increase in other non-interest expense. Salaries and wages and pension and other employee benefits increased primarily due to additional employees and routine salary and wage increases. Other non-interest expense increased primarily due to increases in computer costs, ATM expenses, office supplies expense, outside services, professional fees, and numerous smaller increases in other miscellaneous expense accounts.

These expense increases were partially offset by a $31,000 decrease in equipment expenses and a $107,000 decrease in intangible amortization. Equipment expenses decreased due to a reduction in phone equipment rental as a result of a new contract and due to a reduction in depreciation expense. Intangible amortization decreased primarily due to the amortization in full during the third quarter of 2007 and the third quarter of 2008 of intangible assets related to the purchase of three offices from another bank in 1997. This decrease was partially offset by amortization of the core deposit intangible resulting from the Sycamore acquisition in December 2007.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2008 vs. 2007.

Total non-interest expense increased $1,198,000 during the first nine months of 2008 as compared to the first nine months of 2007 primarily due to a $629,000 increase in salaries and wages, a $227,000 increase in pension and other employee benefits, an $88,000 increase in occupancy expense, and a $447,000 increase in other non-interest expense. These increases were partially offset by a $179,000 decrease in intangible amortization. The increases and decreases for all items except occupancy expense were for substantially the same reasons discussed above. Occupancy expense increased due to an increase in the number of branch locations, specifically the two offices acquired from Sycamore and a new office located in Oakwood, Ohio that opened in May 2007.

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

Operations (continued)

Income Taxes

LCNB’s effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 were 25.4% and 24.2%, respectively. The difference between the statutory rate of 34.0% and the effective tax rate is primarily due to tax-exempt interest income from municipal securities and tax-exempt earnings from bank owned life insurance.

Financial Condition

Total assets increased $62.5 million during the first nine months of 2008, primarily funded by a $60.3 million increase in total deposits. During this period, loans remained relatively stable, increasing $3.3 million. Unable to invest the additional deposits in loan growth, management increased LCNB’s investments in securities available for sale and federal funds sold and interest-bearing demand deposits. Investment securities increased $49.2 million and federal funds sold and interest-bearing demand deposits increased $7.0 million.

Of the $60.3 million increase in total deposits, approximately $44.3 million of the increase was due to increases in public fund deposits by local governmental entities, caused in part by a temporary increase relating to the receipt of tax payments. LCNB has also been receiving a higher than normal volume of deposits withdrawn from other banks due, in part, to the volatility of current economic conditions.

Liquidity

LCNB depends on dividends from its subsidiaries for the majority of its liquid assets, including the cash needed to pay dividends to its shareholders. National banking law limits the amount of dividends the Bank may pay to the sum of retained net income, as defined, for the current year plus retained net income for the previous two years. Prior approval from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Bank’s primary regulator, would be necessary for the Bank to pay dividends in excess of this amount. In addition, dividend payments may not reduce capital levels below minimum regulatory guidelines. Management believes the Bank will be able to pay anticipated dividends to LCNB without needing to request approval.

Liquidity is the ability to have funds available at all times to meet the commitments of LCNB. Asset liquidity is provided by cash and assets which are readily marketable or pledgeable or which will mature in the near future. Liquid assets include cash and cash equivalents, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, and securities available for sale. At September 30, 2008, LCNB’s liquid assets amounted to $177.2 million or 26.6% of total assets, an increase from $118.6 million or 19.6% at December 31, 2007. Liquid assets increased due to increases in securities available for sale and federal funds sold and interest-bearing demand deposits.

-32-

LCNB CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

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

Operations (continued)

Liquidity is also provided by access to core funding sources, primarily core depositors in the bank’s market area. Approximately 74.9% of total deposits at September 30, 2008 were “core” deposits, a decrease from 79.4% at December 31, 2007. Core deposits, for this purpose, are defined as total deposits less public funds and certificates of deposit greater than $100,000. The percentage of core deposits to total deposits decreased because of the growth in public fund deposits discussed above in relation to total growth in deposits.

Secondary sources of liquidity include LCNB’s ability to sell loan participations, borrow funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank, purchase federal funds, or use a line of credit established with another bank.

Management closely monitors the level of liquid assets available to meet ongoing funding needs. It is management’s intent to maintain adequate liquidity so that sufficient funds are readily available at a reasonable cost. LCNB experienced no liquidity or operational problems as a result of the current liquidity levels.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141R”), was issued in December, 2007 and replaces SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations.” It applies to all transactions or other events in which an entity obtains control over one or more businesses. SFAS No. 141R retains the fundamental requirement in SFAS No. 141 that the acquisition method of accounting, previously called the purchase method of accounting, be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. SFAS No. 141R requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at their fair values as of the acquisition date. This fair value approach replaces SFAS No. 141’s cost-allocation process, which required that the cost of an acquisition be allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value. Any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree are also required to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 141R requires acquirers to expense direct acquisition-related costs as incurred. SFAS No. 141 required that such costs be added to the cost of the acquisition. This statement makes significant changes to other accounting practices for business combinations, including but not limited to accounting for step acquisitions, accounting for contingent liabilities arising from a business combination, accounting for research and development assets acquired in a business combination, and accounting for deferred taxes acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R applies prospectively to business combinations with an acquisition date on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is not permitted. LCNB will be required to apply SFAS No. 141R for any business combinations with an acquisition date on or after January 1, 2009.

SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51,” was issued in December, 2007 and amends Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements.” SFAS No. 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest, also called minority interest, in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This statement is to be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. LCNB owns 100% of its subsidiaries and is not affected by SFAS No. 160.

LCNB CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks

LCNB and the Bank are exposed to interest rate risk. The banking business consists of investments in interest-earning assets, which are funded by interest-bearing liabilities, both of which have varying levels of sensitivity to changes in rates of interest. The Bank’s Asset and Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”) meets on a regular basis and attempts to manage this interest rate risk, primarily using a combination of Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis (IRSA) and Economic Value of Equity (EVE) analysis.

The IRSA model is used to estimate the effect on net interest income during a one-year period of instantaneous and sustained movements in interest rates, also called interest rate shocks, of 100, 200, and 300 basis points. The base projection uses a current interest rate scenario. As shown below, the September 30, 2008 IRSA indicates that an increase in interest rates would have a positive effect on net interest income, and a decrease in rates would have a negative effect on net interest income. The changes in net interest income for the up and down 100, 200, and 300 basis point rate assumptions are within LCNB’s acceptable ranges.


Rate Shock Scenario in Basis Points		Amount	$ Change in Net Interest Income	% Change in Net Interest Income
		(Dollars in thousands)
Up 300	$	24,338	2,016	9.03%
Up 200		23,695	1,373	6.15%
Up 100		23,045	723	3.24%
Base		22,322	-	-%
Down 100		21,633	(689)	-3.09%
Down 200		21,764	(558)	-2.50%
Down 300		22,242	(80)	-0.36%

IRSA shows the effect on net interest income during a one-year period only. A more long-range model is the EVE analysis, which shows the estimated present value of future cash inflows from interest-earning assets less the present value of future cash outflows for interest-bearing liabilities for the same rate shocks. As shown below, the September 30, 2008 EVE analysis indicates that an increase in interest rates would have a negative effect on the EVE and a decrease in rates would have a positive effect on the EVE. The changes in EVE, except for the up 300 basis points scenario, are within LCNB’s acceptable ranges. The up 300 basis points scenario is slightly outside LCNB’s policy range of a 25% change, but management has determined the change is acceptable in the current economic environment.


Rate Shock Scenario in Basis Points		Amount	$ Change in EVE	% Change in EVE
		(Dollars in thousands)
Up 300	$	47,979	(18,594)	-27.93%
Up 200		54,235	(12,338)	-18.53%
Up 100		60,720	(5,853)	-8.79%
Base		66,573	-	-%
Down 100		71,007	4,434	6.66%
Down 200		74,622	8,049	12.09%
Down300		79,500	12,927	19.42%

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks (continued)

The IRSA and EVE simulations discussed above are not projections of future income or equity and should not be relied on as being indicative of future operating results. Assumptions used, including the nature and timing of interest rate levels, yield curve shape, prepayments on loans and securities, deposit decay rates, pricing decisions on loans and deposits, and reinvestment or replacement of asset and liability cash flows, are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the models cannot precisely measure future net interest income or equity. Furthermore, the models do not reflect actions that borrowers, depositors, and management may take in response to changing economic conditions and interest rate levels.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

a) Disclosure controls and procedures. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of LCNB's disclosure controls and procedures that ensure that information relating to LCNB required to be disclosed by LCNB in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to LCNB’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, in order to allow timely decisions to be made regarding required disclosures. Based upon this evaluation, these officers have concluded, that as of September 30, 2008, LCNB's disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. During the period covered by this report, there were no changes in LCNB's internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, LCNB's internal control over financial reporting.
