                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                           March 31, 1999 (UNAUDITED)

1. SVB Financial Services,  Inc., (the "Company"),  a bank holding company,  was
incorporated on February 7, 1996 with authorized capital of 10,000,000 shares of
$4.17 par value common  stock.  On September 3, 1996,  the Company  acquired 100
percent of the shares of  Somerset  Valley  Bank (the  "Bank") by  exchanging  6
shares of its Common Stock for each 5 shares of the Bank. This exchange has been
accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control, similar to a
pooling of interests,  which resulted in no changes to the  underlying  carrying
amounts  of assets  and  liabilities.  Effective  April 16,  1998,  the  Company
declared a 2 for 1 stock split, resulting in a $2.09 par value common stock, and
a change in the authorized shares to $20 million.

         The  consolidated   financial  statements  included  herein  have  been
prepared  without  an  audit  pursuant  to  the  rules  and  regulations  of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial  statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted  accounting  principles  have been  omitted  pursuant to such rules and
regulations.   The  accompanying  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements
reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management,  necessary to a
fair  statement  of  the  results  for  the  interim  periods  presented.   Such
adjustments  are of a normal  recurring  nature.  These  consolidated  condensed
financial  statements  should be read in conjunction with the audited  financial
statements and the notes  thereto.  The results for the three months ended March
31, 1999 are not necessarily  indicative of the results that may be expected for
the year ended December 31, 1999.

         The consolidated  financial statements include the accounts of Somerset
Valley Bank. All significant  inter-company  accounts and transactions have been
eliminated.

2.       Loans

         At March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 the  composition of outstanding

  3.     Allowance for Possible Loan Losses

         The  allowance  for  possible  loan  losses is based on  estimates  and
ultimate  losses  may vary  from the  current  estimates.  These  estimates  are
reviewed periodically and as adjustments become necessary, they are reflected in
operations  in the  period  in which  they  become  known.  An  analysis  of the
allowance for possible loan losses is as follows:

4.       New Accounting Pronouncement

         On  January  1, 1998,  the  Company  adopted  Statements  of  Financial
Accounting  Standards  (SFAS) No. 129,  "Disclosure  Information  about  Capital
Structure."  SFAS No.  129  summarizes  previously  issued  disclosure  guidance
contained  within  APB  Opinion  No. 10 and No.  15, as well as SFAS No. 47. The
Company's current disclosures were not affected by the adoption of SFAS No. 129.

         On  January 1, 1998,  the  Company  adopted  SFAS No.  130,  "Reporting
Comprehensive  Income." SFAS No. 130 establishes  standards to provide prominent
disclosure of comprehensive income items.  Comprehensive income is the change in
equity of a business  enterprise  during a period  from  transactions  and other
events and circumstances from non-owner sources.  Prior period amounts have been
restated to conform to the  provisions of SFAS No. 130. The adoption of SFAS 130
did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.

         On January 1, 1998,  the Company  adopted  SFAS No.  131,  "Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related  Information." SFAS No. 131 requires
that public  business  enterprises  report certain  information  about operating
segments in a complete  set of financial  statements  of the  enterprise  and in
condensed  financial  statements of interim periods issued to  shareholders.  It
also  requires the  reporting  of certain  information  about their  product and
services,  the geographic area in which they operate, and their major customers.
The adoption of SFAS No. 131 did not have an impact on the  Company's  financial
position or results of operations.

         The  American  Institute  of  Certified  Public   Accountants   (AICPA)
executive committee has issued Statement of Position (SOP) 98-1,  Accounting for
the Costs of Computer  Software  Developed or Obtained for Internal Use. The SOP
was issued to provide  authoritative  guidance on the subject of accounting  for
the cost associated with the purchase or development of computer  software.  The
statement is effective for fiscal years  beginning  after  December 15, 1998 for
costs  incurred in those fiscal years for all  projects,  including  projects in
progress  when the SOP is adopted.  The  adoption of SOP 98-1 is not expected to
have a  material  impact on the  Company's  financial  position  or  results  of
operations.
<PAGE>
         In June 1998, the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board (FASB) issued
Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  SFAS No. 133,  "Accounting  for
Derivative   Instruments  and  Hedging   Activity."  SFAS  No.  133  establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments imbedded in other contracts,  and for hedging activities.
It  requires  that an entity  recognize  all  derivatives  as  either  assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments
at fair value.  If certain  conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically
designated  as a  hedge.  The  accounting  for  changes  in the  fair  value  of
derivative  (gains and losses) depends on the intended use of the derivative and

Results of Operation
- --------------------

         Net income for the first three months of 1999 was $268,000, an increase
of  $34,000  or 15% as  compared  to the  same  period  in  1998.  Earnings  per
share-Basic were $.10 in 1999 as compared to $.09 in 1998.  Earnings per share -
Diluted were $.09 in 1999 and $.09 in 1998.

         A detailed discussion of the major components of net income follows:

Net Interest Income
- -------------------

         Net interest income for the first three months of 1999 was $1.8 million
compared to $1.6 million in 1998, an increase of $227,000 or 14%.

         Almost all of the increase can be  attributed to an increase in average
earnings assets.  Average earning assets for the first three months of 1999 were
$172.5  million an increase of $30.7  million or 22% from the first three months
of 1998.  Loans  accounted  for 64% of this  increase as loans  averaged  $124.4
million during the three months.  The increase in loan balances  caused interest
income to  increase  $399,000.  Partially  offsetting  this,  the yield on loans
decreased from 9.16%,  to a 8.54%,  mainly due to two quarter point drops in the
prime rate in the latter half of 1998 and  increased  competition  in the market
place.  The  decrease in yield  caused  interest  income to  decrease  $142,000.
Overall,  interest income increased $377,000. Most all of this amount was due to
the increase in average balances. The yield on earning assets was 7.74% for 1999
and 8.34% for 1998.

         The overall cost of interest-bearing  liabilities decreased forty basis
points from 4.70% to 4.30%,  which resulted in a decrease in interest expense of
$67,000.  Offsetting  this,  total interest  bearing  deposits  increased  $24.8
million  during  the  three  months  of 1999 to $139.0  million,  of which  time
deposits  accounted for 44% of this  increase.  The increase in deposits  caused
interest  expense to increase  $216,000.  Overall,  interest  expense  increased
$149,000,  however,  the cost of funding earning assets  decreased from 3.80% in
1998 to 3.47% in 1999, also resulting from lower interest rates.

         The net result of the change in net interest income for the first three
months  of 1999  versus  the  first  three  months  of 1998 was an  increase  of
$227,000.  The net interest margin decreased twenty seven points from a 4.54% to
a 4.27%.

Provision for Loan Possible Losses
- ----------------------------------

         The  provision  for possible loan losses was $80,000 in the first three
months of 1999 as  compared to $65,000 in the first  three  months of 1998.  The
increase  in  provision  can  be  attributed  to  an  increase  in  loans  which
experienced a net increase of $20.3 million since March 31, 1998.
 
Other Income
- ------------

         During the first three months of 1999, other income  increased  $20,000
or 14%  over the same  period  in 1998.  Service  charges  on  deposit  accounts
increased  $16,000  or 25% from the same  period  last  year.  The growth in the
number of  commercial  and  consumer  checking  accounts  resulted in  increased
overdraft,  account maintenance and wire transfer fees. Foreign transaction fees
at the  Company's  ATM  machines  accounted  for 24% of the  increase in service
charges on deposits.
<PAGE>
          Gains  on the  sale of  loans  decreased  $18,000.  The  Company  is a
preferred  SBA  lender  and,  as such,  it  originates  SBA  loans and sells the
government  guaranteed  portions in the  secondary  market while  retaining  the
servicing.  The  amount of gains  recognized  on SBA loans is  dependent  on the
volume of new SBA loans  generated  each  quarter.  The amounts can vary greatly
from quarter to quarter and from year to year.

         Other income increased $21,000 or 69% compared to 1998. The Company was
approved by FNMA to sell mortgage loans late in the third quarter of 1998, which
resulted in an increase of $12,000 or 60% in mortgage  fees.  Additionally  fees
related to the servicing of SBA loans as described  above increased 36% over the
same period for last year.

Other Expense
- -------------

         Other  expenses  for the three  months  ended March 31, 1999  increased
$209,000 or 16% from the same period in 1998. In the first quarter of 1998,  the
Company opened two branches,  one located on Gaston Avenue in Somerville and one
in the assisted living  facility in Arbor Glen in  Bridgewater.  A new branch in
Manville  was  opened  in the  first  quarter  of 1999.  Additionally,  expenses
involved  with the  plans for two more  branches;  one in  Aberdeen,  and one in
Bernards Township, have been incurred. Expenses have been impacted by additional
personnel,  occupancy costs and other expenses related to the opening of the new
branches. Consequently, total assets have grown $39.8 million or 25% since March
31, 1998.  Because of the growth in assets and in offices,  the Company has also
had to hire additional  lending and back-office  personnel to better service its
customer base.  These  additions  combined with normal salary  increases  caused
salary and benefits  expense to increase  $70,000 or 10% from last year. Rent on
the newly opened locations and the potential branch site locations  coupled with
depreciation  on other  facilities  resulted  in a $54,000  or 27%  increase  in
occupancy expenses.  Purchases of equipment for new employees and the additional
branches  increased  equipment  expense  $16,000  or 16% from last  year.  Other
expenses  increased  from last year  $69,000 or 19%.  Much of this  increase was
related to the growth of the Company which  affected many areas,  but especially
data processing costs, and other outsourced services.

Financial Condition
March 31, 1999 compared to December 31, 1998
- --------------------------------------------

         Total  assets  increased  $11.5  million or 6% from  December 31, 1998.
Total loans increased $5.0 million.  Loans secured by real estate increased $7.4
million. Commercial mortgages increased $4.2 million. Residential mortgage loans
increased $3.2 million.  Loans to individuals for  automobiles,  declined by $.6
million.

         Deposits  increased  $11.2 million or 7% during the first three months.
Demand  deposits  increased  $12.1  million  while  some  of the  other  deposit
categories  had  decreased.  The demand  deposit  increase  was due to increased
deposit in  commercial  accounts at the end of the quarter,  and new  commercial
accounts at the Manville Office.

         Investment  securities  decreased  $3.9 million.  The current  treasury
yield  curve,  anticipated  loan  growth,  and  fluctuations  in demand  deposit
balances  has  caused a shift  from  longer  term  securities  to  shorter  term
investments.
<PAGE>
Asset Quality
- -------------

         There were no loans past due 90 days or more and still  accruing  as of
March 31, 1999. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing as of December
31, 1998 were $5,000.

         Loans in a non-accrual  status  totaled  $375,000 at March 31, 1999 and
$96,000 at December 31, 1998 and represented .29% of total loans as of March 31,
1999 and .08% as of December 31, 1998.

         Loans  considered to be impaired  totaled $788,000 at March 31, 1998, a
valuation reserve of $31,000 is attributed to these loans.

         The Company had no other real estate owned at March 31, 1999.

Allowance for Possible Loan Losses
- ----------------------------------

         The  allowance  for  possible  loan  losses  is  maintained  at a level
considered  adequate  to provide for  potential  loan  losses.  The level of the
allowance  is  based on  management's  evaluation  of  potential  losses  in the
portfolio,  after  consideration  of  risk  characteristics  of  the  loans  and
prevailing and anticipated  economic  conditions.  The allowance is increased by
provisions charged to expense and reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries.

         At March 31, 1999,  the allowance for loans losses was  $1,250,000  and
represented .98% of total loans and 333% of non-performing  loans compared to an
allowance  for loan losses at December 31, 1998 of  $1,211,000 or 1.00% of total
loans and 1,261% of non-performing loans at December 31, 1998.

         Charge-offs for the first three months of 1999 totaled $46,000 compared
to $80,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998.

Capital Resources
- -----------------

         Total  Shareholders'  Equity was $14,567,000 at March 31, 1999 compared
to $14,365,000 at December 31, 1998.

         Under the FDIC  Improvement Act of 1991, banks are required to maintain
a minimum ratio of total capital to risk based assets of 8% of which at least 4%
must be in the form of Tier I  Capital  (primarily  Shareholders'  Equity).  The
following are the Company's capital ratios at the end of the periods indicated.

Liquidity
- ---------

         Cash and cash  equivalents  totaled  $27.7 million at March 31, 1999 an
increase of $8.1 million, since December 31, 1998.

         The increase in Cash and Cash Equivalents was primarily attributable to
an increase in deposits  which  contributed  to an increase in cash  provided by
financing  activities of $11.2 million.  Demand deposits experienced the largest
increase for the three month period of $10.0 million.

         Investing activities for the three months included proceeds the sale of
securities  which were $2.5  million,  and net cash  provided  from security and
interest  bearing time deposit  transactions of $390,000.  These funds generated
were more than offset by an  increase  in loans which  resulted in net cash used
for investing activities of $3.1 million.

Year 2000 Disclosure
- --------------------

         The Year 2000 ("Y2K") issue is the result of computer  programs using a
two-digit  format as opposed to four digits to indicate the year.  Such computer
systems  will be unable to interpret  dates beyond the year 1999,  which cause a
system  failure  or  other  computer  errors,  leading  to  the  disruptions  in
operations.

         In 1997,  the Company formed a Year 2000 Committee to develop a plan to
address the issue.  The first phase of the plan called for  identifying all date
reliant hardware,  including  computers,  check encoders,  vaults, A/C & heating
systems, lighting systems, etc. and computer software by performing an inventory
and contacting all vendors for information regarding the Y2K compliance of their
products.  The second phase of the plan called for the replacement or upgrade of
non-compliant  hardware  or software to Y2K  compliant  status.  The third phase
called for the testing of mission  critical  hardware  and software to ascertain
Y2K compliance.  In addition,  contingency  plans are being written to allow the
continuation of operations in case of system failures.

         Phase  I   (Inventory/Assessment)   has   been   completed.   Phase  II
(Renovation/Implementation)  has been  completed  except for the  replacement of
check  encoder   hardware  which  will  take  place  in  mid  1999.   Phase  III
(Validation/Testing) is in progress and will be completed by June 30, 1999.

         Most of the Company's  major computer  applications  (loans,  deposits,
general  ledger,  etc.) are  outsourced to Fiserv,  one of the largest bank data
processing servicers in the country.  Fiserv has a Year 2000 Plan, is performing
testing on all mission  critical  systems and interfaces,  and has developed its
own contingency plans. Fiserv has completed testing of its systems. We have been
provided access to all its documentation and test results. In addition,  a third
party auditor has been hired by Fiserv's clients to review Fiserv's Y2K plan and
provide status reports. At this writing,  Fiserv has substantially completed the
validation  and  testing of the major  computer  applications  and is  currently
testing application interfaces.

         The  Company  expects to spend  $200,000  for  equipment  upgrades  and
$30,000 for direct expense items to cover additional Y2K charges.

         The Company has also made several mailings to its retail and commercial
customers to apprise them of the Y2K problem.  Y2K risk assessment has been made
a part of the Bank's  commercial loan  underwriting  procedures.  The commercial
portfolio has been reviewed and a Y2K risk assessment  made of customers.  These
customers  have been contacted and asked to complete a  questionnaire  regarding
their Y2K effort.
