           for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management,  all
           adjustments  necessary  for a fair  presentation  of the  results  of
           operations for the interim  periods  presented  have been made.  Such
           adjustments  were  of a  normal  recurring  nature.  The  results  of
           operations  for the nine and three months ended June 30, 2000 are not
           necessarily  indicative  of the results  that may be expected for the
           fiscal year  September  30,  2000 or any other  interim  period.  The
           consolidated  financial statements should be read in conjunction with
           the  consolidated  financial  statements  and related notes which are

                   Basic EPS is computed by dividing  net income by the weighted
           average  number  of common  shares  outstanding  for the  appropriate
           period.  Unearned ESOP shares are not included in outstanding shares.
           Diluted  EPS is  computed  by  dividing  net  income by the  weighted
           average  shares  outstanding  as adjusted for the dilutive  effect of
           stock options and unvested stock awards based on the "treasury stock"
           method.  Information  relating to the  calculations of net income per
           share of common  stock is  summarized  for the nine and  three  month
           periods ended June 30, as follows:

                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Statements

         The Private  Securities  Litigation  Reform Act of 1995  contains  safe
harbor  provisions  regarding  forward-looking  statements.  When  used  in this
discussion, the words "believes", "anticipates",  "contemplates", "expects", and
similar expressions are intended to identify  forward-looking  statements.  Such
statements  are  subject to certain  risks and  uncertainties  which could cause
actual  results to differ  materially  from  those  projected.  Those  risks and
uncertainties  include changes in interest  rates,  the ability to control costs
and expenses,  year 2000 issues and general economic conditions.  WHG Bancshares
Corporation  undertakes  no  obligation  to publicly  release the results of any
revisions  to those  forward-looking  statements  which  may be made to  reflect
events or  circumstances  after the date hereof or to reflect the  occurrence of
unanticipated events.

         Since we conduct no  significant  business other than owning all of the
common stock of Heritage Savings Bank, F.S.B.  ("Heritage Savings"),  references
in  this  discussion  to  "we,"  "us,"  and  "our,"  refer  collectively  to WHG
Bancshares Corporation and Heritage Savings.

Overview

         For the nine months ended June 30, 2000, net earnings increased $99,000
to $638,000 or $.55 per diluted share, from $539,000, or $.44 per diluted share,
for the comparative fiscal 1999 period. In general,  higher net earnings for the
current nine month period was primarily  the result of our continued  efforts to
increase net interest  income by investing in higher yielding  interest  earning
assets.

         For the three  months  ended  June 30,  2000,  net  earnings  decreased
$15,000 to $212,000,  or $.18 diluted earnings per share, from $227,000, or $.18
diluted  earnings  per share,  for the  comparative  1999  period.  Our earnings
decreased primarily due to an increase in non-interest expenses.

         As  previously  disclosed,  in order to  accommodate  the growth of our
Ellicott  City  branch,  we plan to relocate  this  branch  location to a larger
building with a drive-thru  facility on August 28, 2000.  The new location is in
close  proximity to our current  location.  We currently  estimate  that we will
spend  approximately  $600,000 to renovate this new branch location,  which such
expenditures will primarily be capitalized.

Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

         Net interest income for the nine and three month periods ended June 30,
2000 was  $3,126,000  and  $1,038,000,  compared to $2,847,000  and  $1,005,000,
respectively,  for the same periods in 1999. The interest rate spread,  which is
the  difference  between the yield on average  interest  earning  assets and the
percentage cost of average interest bearing liabilities,  for the nine and three
month periods ended June 30, 2000 were 2.40% and 2.34%,  respectively,  compared
to 2.24% and 2.30%, respectively,  for the same periods in 1999. The increase in
interest  rate spread for the current nine and three month period was  primarily
the  result  of an  increase  in the  average  yield  on  loans  receivable  and
investment securities.

Interest Income

         Total  interest  income for the nine and three month periods ended June
30, 2000 was $8,336,000 and  $2,825,00,  compared to $7,505,000 and  $2,666,000,
respectively,  for the same periods in fiscal 1999.  Total average interest rate
yields for the nine  months and three  month  periods  ended June 30,  2000 were
7.34% and 7.37%, respectively,  compared to 7.08% and 7.14%,  respectively,  for
the same  periods in fiscal  1999.  The  increase in total  interest  income was
primarily  related  to the  increase  in the  total  average  balance  of  loans
receivable,  increased  average balances and higher average interest rate yields
paid on investments and mortgage backed  securities,  offset by a decline in the
total average balance of interest bearing deposits in other banks.

         Interest  and fees on loans  increased  $752,000  and  $174,000 for the
current  nine  months and three  month  periods to  $5,373,000  and  $1,839,000,
respectively.  Such  increases  for the current year periods were due to average
net loan  originations  of $12,861,000  and  $8,421,000,  respectively.  For the
current nine and three month periods , the average interest rate yield was 7.63%
and 7.66%, respectively, compared to 7.60% and 7.61%, respectively, for the same
periods in 1999.

         Interest  and  dividend  income  on  investment   securities  increased
$191,000 and $20,000 for the current nine and three month  periods to $1,922,000
and $643,000, respectively. Such increases for the current year periods were due
to  respective  increases in average  investment  balances at amortized  cost of
$3,187,000  and $590,000,  respectively.  In addition,  the nine and three month
periods interest rate yields rose 11 and 4 basis points, respectively,  to 6.71%
and  6.70%,  respectively,  from  6.60% and  6.66%,  respectively,  for the same
periods in 1999.

         Interest income on mortgage backed  securities  increased  $100,000 for
the current nine months  period to $843,000.  Such  increase was the result of a
$1,185,000  increase in the average balance and a 35 basis point increase in the
interest  rate  yield to 6.46%  from  6.11% in the  comparable  period  in 1999.
Interest income on mortgage backed securities  decreased $25,000 to $275,000 for
the  current  three  month  period as a result of a  $1,565,000  decrease in the
average balance of mortgaged backed securities.

         Other interest  income  decreased  $210,000 and $10,000 for the current
nine and three  month  periods to $199,000  and  $68,000,  respectively,  as the
result of a  $5,426,000  and  $2,620,000  decrease  in the  average  balance  of
interest bearing  deposits in other banks.  Such declines were due to the use of
these  funds to  invest  in  higher  yielding  mortgaged-backed  and  investment
securities.

Interest Expense

         Total interest  expense for the nine and three month periods ended June
30, 2000 was $5,210,000 and  $1,786,000,  compared to $4,657,000 and $1,661,000,
respectively,  for the same  periods in fiscal  1999.  The  increase in interest
expense for the current  respective  periods were primarily related to increases
in the average  balances of  certificates  of deposits  for the current nine and
three month periods totaling $11,757,000 and $5,386,000,  respectively.  Average
costs of funds for certificates of deposit for the current year periods remained
relatively  constant  compared to the same periods in 1999.  Interest expense on
certificates of deposit for the nine and three month periods ended June 30, 2000
increased $485,000 and $83,000, respectively, as compared to the 1999 respective
periods. In addition, cost of funds for the current three month period increased
59 basis points to 5.84% from 5.04% for the  comparable  1999  quarter.  Average
costs of funds for total  interest  bearing  liabilities  for the  current  year
periods  were 4.94% and 5.04%,  respectively,  compared to 4.84% for each of the
same periods in 1999.

Provision for Loan Losses

         The  provision  for loan  losses for the nine and three  month  periods
ended June 30, 2000 was $90,000 and  $30,000,  compared to $45,000 and  $15,000,
respectively,  for the same periods in fiscal 1999.  The increase was  primarily
due to the  overall  increase  in the  loan  portfolio  and the mix of the  loan
portfolio.  We  continually  evaluate  the  adequacy of the  allowance  for loan
losses,  which  encompasses  the  overall  risk  characteristics  of the various
portfolio  segments,  past  experience  with  losses,  the  impact  of  economic
conditions on borrowers and other relevant  conditions.  Management continues to
offer a wider  variety of loan products  coupled with the  continued  success of
changing  the mix of the  products  offered in the loan  portfolio  - from lower
yielding loans (i.e.,  one-to four family loans) to higher yielding loans (i.e.,
multi-family,  non-residential  commercial,  construction,  and consumer loans).
Based upon the additions to the allowance for loan losses,  management  believes
the  allowance for loan losses is adequate.  However,  there can be no assurance
that the allowance for loan losses will be adequate to cover significant losses,
if any, that we might incur in the future due to the higher degree of risk which
might result from the change in the mix of the loan portfolio.

Non-Interest Income

         Non-interest income for the nine and three month periods ended June 30,
2000 was $108,000 and $39,000,  compared to $183,000 and $36,000,  respectively,
for the same periods in fiscal 1999. Included in the nine month period in fiscal
1999  were  other  commissions  and  fees of  $82,000  from  Mapleleaf  Mortgage
Corporation ("MMC") which closed in March 1999.

         For the current nine and three month periods, fees and charges on loans
decreased $3,900 and $2,500,  respectively.  Additionally other income increased
$16,000  and $8,300,  respectively.  The  increase  for the nine and three month
periods were  primarily  due to an $8,000 and $3,000  increase in ATM fee income
and proceeds of $5,000 from the mutual to stock conversion of the Company's life
insurance policy provider.

Non-Interest Expense

         Total  non-interest  expense for the nine and three month periods ended
June 30, 2000 was $2,104,000  and $702,000  compared to $2,094,000 and $671,000,
respectively,  for the same periods in fiscal 1999.  For the current three month
period,  professional services increased $9,300 due to the Company's continuance
of business planning development. Occupancy expense increased $19,000 and $9,244
for the current  nine and three month  periods,  respectively,  due to the lease
commencement in January 2000 of the new Ellicott City

branch location. Other expenses increased $14,000 and $12,000, respectively, for
the current nine and three month  periods,  primarily  due to an increase in ATM
expense and computer repairs and software cost.

Provision for Income Taxes

         The  provision  for income  taxes for the nine  months and three  month
periods ended June 30, 2000 was $402,000 and $133,000,  compared to $352,000 and
$128,000,  respectively,  for the same periods in fiscal 1999. The increases for
the current period were the result of increases in net income. The effective tax
rate for the  current  respective  periods  were 38.6% as  compared to 36.5% and
36.0%,  respectively,  for the comparative periods in fiscal 1999. The effective
tax rate for the nine and three month periods in 1999 reflected the write-off of
the deferred tax asset of MMC and the non-recognition of income tax benefit from
the net operating loss of MMC.
