PART I

Item 1. Business

Canandaigua National Corporation

The Canandaigua National Corporation, referred to as The Corporation, was
organized on October 31, 1984, and registered under the Bank Holding Company
Act
of 1956, for the purpose of becoming a one-bank holding company. The formation
of the bank holding company was consummated on May 31, 1985, through the
exchange of 80,000 shares of Canandaigua National Corporation $50 par value
common stock for all of the outstanding shares of The Canandaigua National Bank
and Trust Company. The one-bank holding company serves as a means of
increasing
the scope of banking and financial services in the market area served by The
Canandaigua National Bank and Trust Company. The Corporation acquired Greater
Funding of New York, Inc. (GFNYI) d/b/a Greater Funding, the Mortgage Company
during 1996 by purchasing its remaining 66.3% shares not owned by the Company.
GFNYI offers mortgage products that the bank is not licensed to offer,
therefore offering their customer base a larger range of products. GFNYI is
engaged in underwriting and funding mortgages in western New York State. GFNYI
typically resells residential mortgages to entities, which service the loans.
The Corporation acquired 100% of Home Town Funding, Inc. (HTF) during 1997.
HTF functions are the same as GFNYI above. The Bank will remain the principal
source of the Corporation's operating revenue and net income.

The Canandaigua National Bank and Trust Company

The Canandaigua National Bank and Trust Company ("Bank") was incorporated
under the laws of The United States of America as a national bank in 1887.
Since that time, Bank has operated as a national banking association doing
business at several locations in Ontario County and at its branch locations in
the town of Mendon and Village of Pittsford in Monroe County, New York.

As of December 31, 1997, Bank had total assets of approximately
$418,942,000; total stockholders' equity of approximately $40,932,000; and
total
deposits of approximately $324,761,000. Its deposits are insured through the
Bank Insurance Fund by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Bank engages in a full service commercial and consumer banking and trust
business. Bank, with its main office at 72 South Main Street, Canandaigua, New
York, provides services to its customers through its network of ten branches
which include drive-in facilities and customer Bank communication terminals as
well as limited banking transaction through the internet. Bank's full service
offices are located in Ontario County and in the town of Mendon and Village of
Pittsford in Monroe County, New York.

Bank's services include accepting time, demand and savings deposits, NOW
accounts, regular savings accounts, money market certificates, investment
certificates, fixed rate certificates of deposit and club accounts. Its
services also include making secured and unsecured commercial and consumer
loans, financing commercial transactions either directly or through regional
industrial development corporations, making construction and mortgage loans
and the renting of safe deposit facilities. Additional services include
making residential mortgage loans, revolving credit loans with overdraft
checking protection, small business loans, and student loans. Bank's
business loans include seasonal, credit, collateral, and term loans. Trust
services provided by Bank include services as executor and trustee under

Page 4


Item 1. Business

The Canandaigua National Bank and Trust Company - continued

wills and deeds, as guardian and custodian and as trustee and agent for
pension,
profit sharing, individual retirement account and other employee benefit trusts
as well as various investment, pension and estate planning services. Trust
services also include service as transfer agent and registrar of Canandaigua
National Corporation stock and as paying agent for various bond issues and as
escrow agent. In 1995 the Bank formed a subsidiary (CNB Operating Subsidiary
No.1, Inc.). The primary business of this company is to sell life insurance to
individuals. This company is an agency only. During 1996 the Bank purchased
the Burlingham Agency, Inc. The primary business of this company is to sell
life insurance to individuals. This company is an agency only. The Bank
purchased Burlingham Agency to gain access to an already established business
with a customer base. By this purchase the Bank can offer a full line of
products.

Bank has a relatively stable deposit base and no material amount of
deposits
are obtained from a single depositor or group of depositors (including federal,
state and local governments). Bank has not experienced any significant
seasonal
fluctuations in the amount of its deposits nor does Bank rely on foreign
sources
of funds or income.

Territory Served and Competition

All phases of Bank's business are highly competitive. Bank's market area
is
generally Ontario County, with concentration in the Canandaigua, New York area.
Bank competes with local commercial banks as well as other commercial banks
with
branches in Bank's market area as well as federal savings and loan associations
and non-bank banks and credit unions. Bank considers its competition to be
Chase Bank, N.A., Key Bank, National Bank of Geneva, Community Bank,
N.A., and WCTA Federal Credit Union located in Canandaigua, New York and Sears
Financial Network Center and Fleet Bank, M & T Bank located in Rochester, New
York.

Bank, along with other commercial banks, competes with respect to its
lending
activities as well as in attracting demand deposits, with savings banks,
savings
and loan associations, insurance companies, regulated small loan companies,
non-bank banks and credit unions. Bank also competes with insurance
companies,
investment counseling firms, mutual funds and other business firms and
individuals in corporate trust and investment management services.

Bank is generally competitive with all financial institutions in its
service
area with respect to interest rates paid on time and savings deposits and
interest rates charged on loans and service charges on deposit accounts.
Bank employed 248 people as of December 31, 1997.

Supervision and Regulation

Canandaigua National Corporation is incorporated under the laws of the
State
of New York and is directly supervised by the Federal Reserve Bank under the
laws governing one-bank holding companies. In addition, the Corporation
reports
to the Securities and Exchange Commission under the laws governing corporations
with registered securities.

As a national bank and member of the Federal Reserve System, the Bank is
subject to regulations of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System. As an insured bank under the Federal
Deposit Insurance Act, Bank is also regulated by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation. Representatives of the Comptroller of the Currency regularly
conduct examinations of Bank's affairs and records, and Bank must furnish
quarterly reports to the Comptroller.

Government Monetary Policies and Economic Controls

The earnings of Bank are affected by the policies of regulatory
authorities
including the Comptroller of the Currency, the Board of Governors of the
Federal
Reserve System and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. An important
function of the Federal Reserve System is to regulate the money supply and
interest rates. Among the instruments used to implement these objectives are
open market operations in U.S. Government Securities, changes in reserve
requirements against member bank deposits, and changes in the federal discount
rate. These instruments are used in varying combinations to influence overall
growth and distribution of bank loans, investments and deposits, and their use
may also affect interest rates charged on loans or paid for deposits.

The policies and regulations of the Federal Reserve Board have had, and
will
probably continue to have, a significant effect on Bank's deposits, loans and
investment growth, as well as the rate of interest earned and paid, and are
expected to affect Bank's operations in the future. The effect of such
policies
and regulations, if any, upon the future business and earnings of Bank cannot
accurately be predicted.

B. Maturities and Sensitivities of Loans to Changes in Interest Rates

The following table sets forth the maturities and sensitivity to changes in
interest rates of the loan portfolio exclusive of real estate mortgage and
installment loans as of December 31, 1997.

Remaining Maturity
Within One Through Over
One Year Five Years Five Years Total
(Dollars In Thousands)

Commercial, financial

Loans maturing after one year:
With a predetermined interest
rate $14,957
With a floating or adjustable rate $11,561

The maturities set forth above are based upon contracted maturities. Demand
loans, overdrafts and certain time loans, the principal of which will be
renewed in whole or in part, are included in the "Within One Year"
classification. The Company's loan policy encourages a repayment schedule to
be established whenever possible.

Page 12


B. Maturities and Sensitivities of Loans to Changes
In Interest Rates - continued

Bank policy provides that a demand loan should not be renewed more than
once, with renewals at the then prevailing interest rates and with the
assurance the borrower demonstrates the ability to repay on maturity of the
loan.

The Bank provides standby letters of credit commitments which also provide
for availability of funds over a period of generally one year. All such
commitments have fixed expiration dates and may require the payment of a
fee.

The Bank extends lines of credit under which a customer may borrow for
various purposes such as letters of credit. The extension of these
commitments and lines of credit have been in the normal course of business.
In the opinion of Management, at December 31, 1997, there are no material
commitments to extend credit which represent unusual risks.


C. Risk Elements

(1) Non-accrual, Past Due and Restructured Loans

The risk elements in the loan portfolio are disclosed in the following

1997 1996 1995 1994 1993

Restructured Loans $0 $0 $0 $0 $393


The accrual of interest on commercial and real estate loans is generally
discontinued when the loans become 90 days delinquent or when, in management's
judgment, the collection of principal and interest is uncertain. Recognition
of interest income on non-accrual loans does not resume until management
considers principal and interest collectible. Installment loans are generally
charged off upon becoming 120 days past due.

Additional gross income of $636,000, $841,000, and $739,000 would have
been reported during 1997, 1996, and 1995, respectively, if the loans reported
above as non-accrual and restructured loans had been current in accordance with
the original terms.

(2) Potential Problem Loans

Loans which are not disclosed pursuant to Item III C. (1), but where known
information about credit problems of borrowers causes Management to have
serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with present
loan repayment terms which may result in disclosure in Item III C. (1) above.
There were no potential problem loans as of December 31, 1997 and 1996.

The determination of the allowance for loan losses is based on an analysis of
the loan portfolio and reflects an amount which, in management's judgment, is
adequate to provide for loan losses. This analysis is based on management's
periodic evaluation, which considers factors such as past loss experience,
identification of adverse conditions that may affect a borrower's ability to
repay, an assessment of current and expected economic conditions and the
estimated value of any underlying collateral. The allowance for loan losses is
applicable for any loan losses despite the allocation provided above. In
addition, future allocations may change due to circumstances inherent in the
loan portfolio

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations

The purpose of this discussion is to focus on information about Canandaigua
National Corporation's financial condition and results of operations which is
not otherwise apparent from the consolidated financial statements in the annual
report. Reference should be made to those statements and the selected
financial data presented elsewhere in this report for an understanding of the
following discussion and analysis.

Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity Management

Liquidity is defined as the ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to
meet the demand for cash from depositors who wish to withdraw funds, borrowers
who require funds to meet their credit needs, and the need for operating funds
and capital expansion.

Asset liquidity is found in cash, federal funds sold, deposits with other
financial institutions, short term security holdings, and loan repayments. On
average for 1997, federal funds sold, cash and due from banks, and interest
bearing deposits with other banks totaled $15.6 million. The securities
portfolio is also an important source of liquidity. As of December 31, 1997,
approximately $25.9 million amortized cost of the portfolio will be mature in
one year or less. Combining these two major sources of liquidity, the
Corporation had $41.5 million of readily available assets, which is 10.8% of
average assets for 1997. Management believes that liquidity needs are
adequately addressed, but also has short term and long term borrowings
available from the Federal Reserve Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank.

An objective of the Company's asset/liability management policy is to maximize
current and future net interest income within acceptable levels of interest
rate risk while satisfying liquidity and capital requirements. The
Asset/Liability management Committee is responsible for managing interest rate
risk.

The Company uses a variety of methods to manage its interest rate risk and does
not rely solely on one method. One such method used to manage interest rate
risk involves the measurement of interest rate gap. Interest rate gap is the
amount by which a bank's rate sensitive assets differ from its rate sensitive
liabilities. A positive gap exists when rate sensitive assets exceed rate
sensitive liabilities, indicating that a greater volume of assets than
liabilities will reprice during a given period. Theoretically, this mismatch
will enhance earnings in a rising rate environment and inhibit earnings when
rates decline. Conversely, when rate sensitive liabilities exceed rate
sensitive assets, the gap is negative, indicating that greater volume of
liabilities than assets will reprice during the period. Theoretically, in this
case, a rising rate environment will inhibit earnings and declining rates will
enhance earnings. The Rate Sensitivity Schedule that follows illustrates the
measurement of interest rate gap at December 31, 1997.

The following chart indicates rate sensitivity at December 31, 1997:

Page 21


The chart indicates that the Corporation was repricing $137.7 million more of
interest earning liabilities than interest bearing assets in the 0-3 month
range. This gap is not considered to be a problem, as a good portion of the
savings balances are not considered sensitive to rate change. However, the
Corporation will be challenged in a rising interest rate environment to
maintain its interest margins. For the 4-12 month period, the Corporation is
modestly liability sensitive, as $6.9 million more of interest bearing
liabilities are being repriced than interest earning assets. For the entire
one year range, the Corporation is repricing $144.6 million more interest
bearing liabilities than assets, or 43.6% of earning assets. This liability
sensitivity has increased $35 million and 10.9% of earning assets over last
year. The imbalance was due to the increase in advances from FHLB to fund
loans with a longer maturity. The Corporation is asset sensitive at $154.2
million for the one to five year range, as interest earning assets increased
$39.5 million from last year's amounts, along with an interest bearing
liabilities increase of $2.7 million.

For the entire portfolio range, the Corporation is asset sensitive at $84.2
million versus asset sensitivity of $66.9 million last year. With interest
rate forecasts continuing to suggest declines, our earnings should be favorably
impacted if we can continue to cut liability rates at the same pace as earning
assets. We will have some difficulty, however, as short term liability rates
are at or near historic lows. Continued declines could lead to deposit
outflows, as investors seek higher returns in other available products. We may
have to limit our liability rate decreases in order to continue to fund the
bank, and that may have a slightly negative impact on historic spreads.
Hopefully increasing lending will offset some of the decline.

During 1997, increased consumer lending which was not supported by deposit
growth but by short-term borrowings. This led to a decline in the Rate
Sensitive Assets/Rate Sensitive Liabilities equation. The Corporation believes
this mismatch will continue for sometime and is aware of its challenge to
interest rate risk.

On a quarterly basis, sensitivity to change in interest rates is also measured
using simulation model. The model estimates changes in net interest income and
net income under a variety of possible interest rate scenarios. By performing
these simulations and comparing them to established policy limits, management
has an opportunity to plan for changes in the asset/liability mix or to take
other steps that may be necessary to lessen interest rate risk. Based on
management's assumptions built into the simulation model and the current mix of
the Company's assets and liabilities, management's assessment is that its
negative gap position will not have a material adverse effect on its operating
results or liquidity in the event of reasonably foreseeable changes in interest
rates during 1998. These simulations are based on numerous assumptions
regarding the timing and the extent of repricing characteristics. Actual
results may differ significantly.

Page 22

The following table shows the Company's estimated earnings sensitivity profile
as of December 31, 1997.

Changes in Interest Rates Percent Change in Net Income
(basis points) 12 Months 24 Months
+200 over one year -73.65% 6.63 %
+100 over one year -36.83 3.32
-100 over one year 36.83 -3.32
+200 over one year 73.65 -6.63

Capital Resources
Total Stockholders' equity at December 31, 1997, was $40,932,000,
representing an increase of $1,813,000 (or 4.6%) over 1996. Primary capital,
defined as shareholders equity plus loan loss reserve, was $44,085,000 at
December 31, 1997, or 11.43% of average assets versus $41,794,000 or 12.49% of
average assets at December 31, 1996.

The Federal Reserve Board standards require banks and bank holding
companies to maintain capital based on "risk adjusted" assets so that
categories of assets with potentially higher credit risk will require more
capital backing than assets with lower risk. In addition, banks and bank
holding companies are required to maintain capital to support, on a risk-
adjusted basis, certain off balance sheet activities such as loan commitments
and interest rate swaps. Capital is classified into two tiers. Tier 1 capital
consists of common shareholders' equity, non-cumulative and cumulative
perpetual preferred stock, and minority interests less goodwill and less net
unrealized gain on securities available for sale. Tier 2 capital consists of
allowances for loan and lease losses, hybrid capital instruments, term
subordinated debt, and intermediate-term preferred stock. All banks are
required to meet a minimum ratio of 8% of qualifying total capital to risk
adjusted total assets with at least 4% Tier 1 capital.

Page 23



The table below illustrates the Corporation's regulatory capital ratio
at December 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996:

1997 1996
(dollars in thousands)

Tier 1 Capital $ 40,567 $ 39,119
Tier 2 Capital $ 3,153 $ 2,675
Total Qualifying Capital $43,720 $ 41,794

Risk Adjusted Total Assets $303,110 $247,846

Tier 1 Risk Based Capital Ratio 13.38% 15.78%
Total Risk Based Capital Ratio 14.42% 16.86%
Leverage Ratio 9.69% 11.11%

As shown in the table, the Corporation's Tier 1 Risk Based Capital has
grown 3.7%, and Total Risk Based Capital has increased 4.6% from year end 1996
levels.

The leverage ratio (Tier 1 Capital divided by total assets less goodwill)
must be at least 3%. The Corporation's leverage ratio was 9.69% as of December
31, 1997.

The capital ratios of the Corporation are strongly in excess of minimum
regulatory requirements, indicating an ability to meet customer demand and
market competition, while providing sufficient earnings to strengthen the
capital base annually. The Corporation believes that its strong capital base
will allow it to continue a reasonable dividend payment.

Dividends
Payments of dividends by the Bank to the Company is limited or restricted
in certain circumstances. According to federal banking law, the approval of
the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency is required for the declaration
of dividends in any year which dividends exceed the total of net income for
that year plus retained income for the preceding two years. At December 31,
1997, approximately $5,444,000 was available for payment of dividends to the
Company.

Cash dividends for 1997 amounted to $1,609,000, an increase of $195,000 or
13.79% over the $1,414,000 paid in 1996. Dividends paid were 43.1% and 48.0%
of 1997 and 1996 earnings respectively.

Results of Operations
Net interest income is the difference between interest received from
earning assets and interest paid on interest bearing liabilities. It is
affected by both the volume and rates applied to both earnings assets and
liabilities, and therefore, is an effective measurement of how well management
has balanced and reacted to the Corporation's interest rate sensitive assets
and liabilities.

Page 24


For the year ended December 31, 1997, the Corporation had $355.6 million
average earning assets, up $47.8 million or 15.5% from the year earlier.
Average interest bearing liabilities were $285.0 million for 1997, up $40.2
million or 16.4% from 1996. The increase in earning assets reflects the
expansion of our indirect loan product into the Rochester, NY area. Liability
growth has begun, due to the Company borrowing from the Federal Home Loan Bank
to fund the asset growth. While being mindful of the Corporation's customers'
needs, management was able to increase net interest income for 1997 to $18.6
million, up from $16.7 million for 1996, reflecting an increase of 11.35% for
1997.

The yield on interest earning assets was 8.39% in 1997, up from 8.29% in
1996. Cost of funds increased to 3.94% from 3.59% in 1996. Management
continued to stress the cost and size control of liabilities during 1997, and
therefore the net spread decreased to 4.45% from 4.70% in 1996. Net interest
income as a percentage of earning assets (net interest rate margin) decreased
to 5.23%, as the $1,896,000 increase in net interest income was derived from
successfully managing the changing interest rate environment during the year,
in conjunction with the previously mentioned increase in total earning assets.
Management believes these results are an indication that its interest rate
sensitivity planning is functioning well.

The provision for loan losses in 1997 was $851,000, down $639,000 from
1996. The allowance for loan loss as of December 31, 1997 was $3.2 million, or
1.03% of loans outstanding at year end 1997. This ratio is slightly lower than
that of 1996 (1.04%).

The Corporation's investment portfolio book value increased to $71.4
million at December 31, 1997 from $70.0 million at December 31, 1996,
reflecting an increase of 2%.

Other income for 1997 increased to $4.3 million from $3.9 million,
reflecting an increase of $403,000 or 10.3%. Service charges on deposit
accounts were down $127,000 to $1,534,000. Other operating income for 1997
rose to $1,031,000 from $940,000 reflecting an increase of $91,000. Strong
demand for our trust services in our traditional markets as well as in our new
Pittsford location led to an increase of Trust Income to $1,723,000 up from
$1,337,000 in 1996.

Page 25

Operating expenses totaled $16.7 million, up 10.0% from $15.1 million in
1996. Salaries and employee benefits rose $1.3 million as the Corporation
expanded several product areas and purchased two non-traditional financial
service providers.

The rate of return on average assets (ROA) and the rate of return on
average equity are a good measure of the Corporation's results. For the year
1997, return on average assets increased to .98% from .84%. Return on average
equity was 9.6% in 1997 compared to 7.9% in 1996. Management believes the
Corporation remains quite healthy.

Accounting Standards

In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 125, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of
Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. SFAS No. 125 is effective
for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of
liabilities occurring after December 31, 1996 and is to be applied
prospectively. This Statement provides accounting and reporting standards for
transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities
based on consistent application of a financial-components approach that focuses
on control. It distinguishes transfers of financial assets that are sales from
transfers that are secured borrowings. Management of the Company does not
expect the adoption of SFAS No. 125 will have a material impact on the
Company's financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

In June 1997, FASB issued Statement No. 130 entitled "Reporting Comprehensive
Income". Comprehensive Income is defined as "the change in equity(net assets)
of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and
circumstances from nonowner sources. It includes all changes in equity during
a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to
owners." The Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1997 and requires that items that meet the definition of components of
comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed as
prominently as other financial statements. While this Statement will increase
the Company's financial disclosures, it will have no impact on operating
results.

FASB Statement No. 131 entitled "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise
and Related Information" was also issiued in June 1997. This Statement is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. This Statement
establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report
information about operating segments in annual financial statements and
requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating
segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. It also
establishes standards for related disclosures about disclosures but will have
no impact on operating results.

Item 11. Executive Compensation

(a) Cash Compensation

The information required to be included herein regarding executive compensation
pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K is included under the caption "Executive
Compensation" in registrants definitive proxy statement on page 6 and is
incorporated herein by reference.

During the year ended December 31, 1997, officers of the Corporation did not
receive any compensation from the Corporation for services rendered in such
capacity. All of the above compensation was paid by the Bank for services
rendered in the course of their employment with the bank.

(b) Compensation Pursuant to Plans

The Bank has a non-contributory, profit sharing plan covering substantially all
full-time employees who have completed one year of service, subject to a
minimum number of hours of service with the Bank. Contributions to the profit
sharing plan by the Bank are allocated among eligible participants in the
proportion that each participant's "points" for the calendar year bear to the
total "points" awarded for the calendar year. Participants are awarded one
point for each full calendar year of employment and one point for each $100 of
compensation paid such participant during that year. Voluntary contributions
may be made and invested in a separate "Voluntary Account" in which the
participant is always fully vested. Participants become fully-vested with non-
contributory allocations upon: reaching the age of 65, disability, death, or
7 years of service as defined by the plan. If employment is otherwise
terminated, partial vesting will be accorded depending upon the participant's
years of service. Retirement and death benefits may be distributed in a cash
lump sum or a series of equal installments, payable at least annually, over a
period selected by the Profit Sharing Plan Committee. The amounts contributed
to the profit sharing plan by the Bank in 1997, 1996, and 1995 were $763,000,
$658,000, and $639,000, respectively.

The Corporation has an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) for employees of
its wholly-owned subsidiary, and executive officers are members of the plan.
Contributions to the ESOP are allocated among eligible participants in the
proportion that each participant's gross compensation bears to total
compensation of all participants. Contributions to the plan for 1997, 1996,
and 1995 were $52,000, $52,000, and $46,000 respectively.
