                        COLUMBIA BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)


1.     Principles of Consolidation

         The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
       Columbia Bancorp, a bank holding company ("Columbia"), and its
       wholly-owned subsidiaries, Columbia River Bank ("CRB"), and Valley
       Community Mortgage Services, Inc., after elimination of intercompany
       transactions and balances. CRB is an Oregon state-chartered bank,
       headquartered in The Dalles, Oregon. Substantially all activity of
       Columbia is conducted through its subsidiary bank, CRB.

         The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
       generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
       information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
       footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for
       complete financial statements. The financial information included in this
       interim report has been prepared by management and reviewed by
       independent public accountants. Columbia's annual report contains audited
       financial statements. All adjustments including normal recurring accruals
       necessary for fair presentation of results of operations for the interim
       periods included herein have been made. The results of operations for the
       nine months ended September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of
       results to be anticipated for the year ending December 31, 2000.

2.     Recent Corporate Activity

         Effective September 30, 2000, CRB acquired Datatech of Oregon, Inc.
       ("Datatech"), headquartered in Portland, Oregon. Prior to the
       acquisition, CRB owned 28.6% of Datatech, a data processing company that
       provided services to CRB and five other Oregon community banks. As
       consideration for the acquisition, CRB paid approximately $150,000. The
       acquisition allows CRB greater control over, and flexibility with respect
       to, data processing functions. The acquisition was accounted for as a
       purchase transaction. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the
       purchase transaction were not material to the consolidated financial
       statements of Columbia.

3.     Loans and Reserve for Loan Losses

       The composition of the loan portfolio was as follows:

         Columbia has adopted a policy for placement of loans on nonaccrual
       status after they become 90 days past due unless otherwise formally
       waived. Further, Columbia may place loans that are not contractually past
       due or that are deemed fully collateralized on nonaccrual status to
       promote better oversight and review of loan arrangements. Loans on
       nonaccrual status at September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 were
       approximately $1,435,000 and $394,000, respectively.

         As of September 30, 2000, Columbia identified loans totaling $117,000
       on which the interest rate or payment schedule was modified from original
       terms to accommodate a borrower's weakened financial position. There were
       $202,000 of loans in this category at December 31, 1999.

         At September 30, 2000, and December 31, 1999, Columbia had no other
       real estate owned ("OREO"), which represents assets held through loan
       foreclosure or recovery activities.

4.     Earnings Per Share

         Basic earning per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing
       net income by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the
       period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that
       could occur if common shares were issued pursuant to the exercise of
       options under stock option plans. Weighted average shares outstanding
       consist of common shares outstanding and common stock equivalents
       attributable to outstanding stock options.

         The weighted average number of shares and common share equivalents have
       been adjusted for all prior stock dividends or splits.

5.     Recently Issued Accounting Standards

         SFAS No. 137 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
       Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133" is
       effective for all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after
       June 15, 2000. Columbia does not expect SFAS 137 to materially impact the
       financial condition or results of operations of Columbia.

         SFAS No. 138 "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain
       Hedging Transactions, an amendment to FASB Statement No. 133" addresses a
       limited number of issues causing implementation difficulties in adoption
       of SFAS 133. Implementation of the accounting standard is expected to
       have no effect on the financial condition and results of operations of
       Columbia.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION

       Forward-looking statements with respect to the financial condition,
results of operations and the business of Columbia are subject to certain risks
and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from
those set forth in such statements. These include, without limitation:
Columbia's dependence on the timely development, introduction and customer
acceptance of new products; the impact of competition on revenues and margins;
and other risks and uncertainties, including statements relating to the year
2000, as may be detailed from time to time in Columbia's public announcements
and filings with the SEC. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the
use of forward-looking terminology, such as "may", "will", "should", "expect",
"anticipate", "estimate", "continue", "plans", "intends", or other similar
terminology. Columbia does not intend to publicly release any revisions to these
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of
the Report, other than in its periodic filings with the SEC, or to reflect the
occurrence of unanticipated events.

OVERVIEW

       Highlights for the third quarter of the new millennium for Columbia
Bancorp ("Columbia"):

       -      Reported record growth in loans, deposits and earnings.

       -      Columbia's subsidiary Columbia River Bank ("CRB") acquired
              Datatech of Oregon, Inc. a data processing company.

       -      Within six months of roll-out, realized 3% customer penetration of
              Columbia River BankNet, CRB's internet banking solution.

       Columbia reported net income of $4,045,266, or $.50 per diluted share for
the nine months ended September 30, 2000. This represented a 10% increase in net
income, as compared to $3,664,235, or $.45 per diluted share, for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999. Net income of $1,419,464, or $.18 per diluted
share for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 represented an increase of 1% in
net income as compared to $1,406,976, or $.17 per diluted share for the quarter
ended September 30, 1999.

       The net income added to shareholders' equity during the first nine months
of 2000 was offset, in part, by dividends declared and paid of $1,683,567. A
second quarter dividend of $.07 per share was paid August 1 to shareholders of
record July 15. On September 28 the Bancorp board of directors declared a
third-quarter dividend of $.07 per share payable November 1, 2000 to
shareholders of record October 15. With the payment of the declared dividend,
approximately 42% of earnings will have been returned to shareholders, the
remainder being retained to fund the continued growth of Columbia.

MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

       Changes in the balance sheet for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
include an increase in total assets, primarily in loans, and an increase in
total liabilities, primarily in total deposits and notes payable.

     At September 30, 2000, total assets increased 16%, or approximately $59.1
million, over total assets at December 31, 1999. Major components of the change
in total assets were:

       -      $50.0 million increase in loans

       -      $5.3 million increase in federal funds sold

       -      $3.3 million increase in loans held-for-sale


       The increase in loans is reflected in increases in all loan categories.
Management attributes the change to seasonal increase in real estate
construction and agricultural operating loans as well as continued penetration
within Columbia's market. The market areas Columbia serve continue to experience
robust local economies.



                                       9

       Columbia experienced an increase in deposits of approximately $44.9
million during the first nine months of 2000, specifically as follows:

       -      Noninterest-bearing deposits increased $17.1 million

       -      Interest-bearing demand deposits increased $6.6 million

       -      Savings deposits decreased $0.1 million

       -      Time certificate deposits increased $21.3 million

       Driven by marketing promotions $15.8 million of the $21.3 million
year-to-date growth in time deposits was generated in the first quarter of the
year. Management believes deposit increases are due to continuing expansion in
current market areas served.

       Notes payable increased $12.2 million in the nine months ended September
30, 2000. Along with deposit growth, notes payable have been used to fund the
loan growth experienced this year.

       All other changes experienced in asset and liability categories during
the first nine months of 2000 were comparatively modest.

MATERIAL CHANGES IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

       Total interest income increased $4,643,047 for nine months ended
September 30, 2000, and $1,708,700 the quarter ended September 30, 2000, as
compared to the same periods in 1999. This increase is primarily due to the
increase in loans held in 2000 as compared to 1999.

       Total interest expense also increased $2,710,119 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000, and $1,144,266 for the quarter ended September 30,
2000, as compared to the same periods in 1999. This increase is primarily due to
the increase in time deposits held during 2000 as compared to 1999.

       Columbia's net interest income increased by $1,932,298 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000, and $564,434 for the quarter ended September
30, 2000 as compared to the same periods in 1999. Diluted net income per common
share increased to $.50 for the first nine months of 2000 from $.45 for the
first nine months of 1999. Cash earnings, excluding the effect of goodwill
amortization, in the first nine months of 2000 were $.56 per diluted share
compared to $.51 per diluted share in the like period a year ago.

       Noninterest income increased $786,881 for the nine months ended September
30, 2000, and $470,575 for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 as compared to
the same periods in 1999. The increase, for both the quarter and year-to-date,
is primarily attributable to increased income generated by service charges and
fees on deposit accounts, growth in the company's bankcard department and fees
generated from mortgage operations.

       Noninterest expense increased $1,716,779 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000, and $818,606 for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 as
compared to the comparable 1999 period. The increase for the both periods was
primarily attributable to increases in salaries and employee benefits and other
expenses. The staffing of the Shevlin and Newberg branches (opened in the third
and fourth quarters of 1999, respectively), and the normal expense increases
associated with maintaining an expanded employee base were the primary forces
contributing to the increased expense in these categories.

LOAN LOSS PROVISION

       During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, Columbia charged a
$1,317,000 loan loss provision to operations, as compared to $855,000 charged
during the same period in 1999. Loans charged off, net of loan recoveries, was
$218,488 during the nine months ended September 30, 2000, as compared to net
charged off loans of $28,727 for the like period in 1999.

       Management believes that the reserve for loan losses is adequate for
potential loan losses, based on management's assessment of various factors,
including present delinquent and nonperforming loans, past history of industry
loan loss experience, and present economic trends impacting the areas and
customers served by Columbia.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

       Columbia has adopted policies to maintain a relatively liquid position to
enable it to respond to changes in the financial environment and ensure
sufficient funds are available to meet customers' needs for borrowing and
deposit withdrawals. Generally, Columbia's major sources of liquidity are
customer deposits, sales and maturities of investment securities, the use of
federal funds markets and net cash provided by operating activities. Scheduled
loan repayments are a relatively stable source of funds, while deposit inflows
and unscheduled loan prepayments, which are influenced by general interest rate
levels, interest rates available on other investments, competition, economic
conditions and other factors, are not.

       The analysis of liquidity also includes a review of the changes that
appear in the consolidated statement of cash flows for the first nine months of
2000. The statement of cash flows includes operating, investing and financing
categories. Operating activities include net income of $4,045,266, which is
adjusted for non-cash items and increases or decreases in cash due to changes in
certain assets and liabilities. Investing activities consist primarily of both
proceeds from and purchases of securities, and the impact of the net growth in
loans. Financing activities present the cash flows associated with deposit and
loan accounts, and reflect the dividend paid to shareholders.

       The Federal Reserve Board ("FRB") and Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation ("FDIC") have established minimum requirements for capital adequacy
for bank holding companies and member banks. The requirements address both
