               not include  information  or footnotes  necessary  for a complete
               presentation  of financial  position,  results of operations  and
               cash  flows in  conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting
               principles.  However, all normal recurring  adjustments which, in
               the opinion of management,  are necessary for a fair presentation
               of the financial statements,  have been included. These financial
               statements  should  be  read  in  conjunction  with  the  audited
               financial  statements and the accompanying notes thereto included
               in the Company's  Annual Report for the period ended December 31,
               1996.  The results for the six months ended June 30, 1997 are not
               necessarily  indicative  of the results  that may be expected for
               the fiscal year ending December 31, 1997.

(2)            Acquisition

               On June 5, 1997,  the Bank  purchased  four  branches  from First
               Union National Bank. The Bank acquired approximately  $66,552,000
               of  deposit   liabilities  plus  $222,000  of  accrued  interest,
               $1,755,000 of real estate and equipment, $2,313,000 of loans plus
               related accrued  interest and $1,203,000 in cash. The bank paid a
               premium of  approximately  $4,661,000,  which is being  amortized
               over seven years.

               The  provision  for loan losses  charged to expense is based upon
               past loan and loss  experience  and an  evaluation  of  potential
               losses in the current loan portfolio, including the evaluation of
               impaired  loans under SFAS Nos. 114 and 118. A loan is considered
               to be impaired when,  based upon current  information and events,
               it is  probable  that the Bank  will be  unable  to  collect  all
               amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan.

               An insignificant delay or insignificant  shortfall in  amount  of
               payments does not necessarily result in a loan  being  identified
               as impaired. For this purpose,  delays  less  than  90  days  are
               considered to be insignificant.

               Impairment  losses are included in the provision for loan losses.
               SFAS  Nos.  114 and 118 do not apply to large  groups of  smaller
               balance,  homogeneous  loans that are collectively  evaluated for
               impairment,  except for those loans restructured under a troubled
               debt restructuring.  Loans collectively  evaluated for impairment
               include consumer loans and residential real estate loans, and are
               not included in the data that follows:

(6)            Guaranteed Preferred Beneficial Interest in Subordinated Debt

               On March 17, 1997, Sun Capital Trust (the  "Trust"),  a statutory
               business trust created under Delaware law that is a subsidiary of
               the  Company,  issued $25  million,  9.85%  Preferred  Securities
               ("Preferred  Securities")  with a stated  value  and  liquidation
               preference of $25 per share.  This Trust's  obligations under the
               Preferred   Securities  issued  are  fully  and   unconditionally
               guaranteed  by the  Company.  The  proceeds  from the sale of the
               Preferred  Securities  of the Trust were utilized by the Trust to
               invest in $25  million of 9.85%  Junior  Subordinated  Debentures
               (the  "Debentures") of the Company.  The Debentures are unsecured
               and rank  subordinate  and  junior  in right  of  payment  to all
               indebtedness,  liabilities  and  obligations of the Company.  The
               Debentures  represent  the sole assets of the Trust.  Interest on
               the Preferred  Securities is cumulative and payable  quarterly in
               arrears.  The  Company  has the right to  optionally  redeem  the
               Debentures  prior to the maturity  date of March 31, 2027,  on or
               after March 31, 2002, at 100% of the stated  liquidation  amount,
               plus accrued and unpaid distributions,  if any, to the redemption
               date.  Under the  occurrence of certain  events,  the Company may
               redeem in whole,  but not in part, the Debentures  prior to March
               31, 2002.  Proceeds from any redemption of the  Debentures  would
               cause a mandatory  redemption of the Preferred Securities and the
               common securities having an aggregate liquidation amount equal to
               the principal amount of the Debentures redeemed.

               On April 9, 1997, the underwriters  for the Preferred  Securities
               exercised their right to purchase an additional $3,750,000 of the
               Preferred  Securities on the same terms as the original  issuance
               to  cover  over-allotments.  The  proceeds  from  the sale of the
               Preferred  Securities  were  utilized  by the  Trust to invest in
               $3,750,000 of Debentures of the Company.

               On behalf of the Trust,  the  Company  requested  relief from the
               Office of Chief Counsel of the Division of Corporation Finance of
               the Securities and Exchange Commission,  exempting the Trust from
               the  reporting  requirements  of the  Securities  Exchange Act of
               1934. The Trust is a wholly-owned  subsidiary of the Company, has
               no independent  operations and issued securities that contained a
               full and unconditional guarantee of its parent, the Company.

               In February,  1997,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board
               issued SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share. This statement, which is
               effective for fiscal years ending after  December 15, 1997,  will
               require  an   institution  to  change  the  method  by  which  it
               calculates  its earnings per share.  Earlier  application of this
               statement is not permitted, however, pro forma earnings per share
               amounts computed using SFAS No. 128 is permitted.

               The  following  pro  forma  information  reflects  the  Company's
               earnings  per  share  calculation  as  if  this  statement   was

(8)            Subsequent Event

               On July 24, 1997, the Bank purchased  three branches from Oritani
               Savings Bank.  The Bank  acquired  approximately  $33,922,000  of
               deposit  liabilities plus $144,000 of accrued interest,  $547,000
               of real estate and equipment and $180,000 in cash.  The bank paid
               a premium  of  $2,151,000,  which is being  amortized  over seven
               years.



(9)            Pending Acquisition

               On June 5, 1997,  the Bank entered into a purchase and assumption
               agreement  with The Bank of New York  ("BNY"),  whereby  the Bank
               will assume certain deposit  liabilities of eleven branch offices
               from  BNY.  At  May  31,  1997,  the  branches  had  deposits  of
               approximately  $180 million.  In addition,  the Bank will acquire
               approximately  $30  million  of  loans  as well as  property  and
               equipment pertaining to the branches. The transaction is expected
               to be completed  during the fourth quarter of 1997. The agreement
               is subject to raising additional capital and regulatory approval.

Item 2:
                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Financial Condition

               Total  Assets at June 30,  1997  increased  by $148.4  million to
$585.2 million as compared to $436.8 million at December 31, 1996,  representing
growth of about 34.0%. The increase was due, in part, to the acquisition of four
branch offices from First Union National Bank,  Avondale,  Pennsylvania  ("First
Union").  The Company experienced a growth of $68.2 million in loans,  primarily
commercial  loans,  augmented by a $6.4 million  increase in federal funds sold.
Approximately $2.3 million in loans were acquired from First Union. Cash and due
from banks  increased $9.7 million as a result of higher branch cash,  increased
cash  letter  balances  and  higher  reserve  balance  requirements.  Investment
securities  available for sale  increased  $55.0  million.  Bank  properties and
equipment  increased  by $2.0  million  primarily as a result of the First Union
acquisition.  The  excess of cost over fair value of assets  acquired  increased
$4.2 million,  also as a result of the First Union acquisition.  The increase in
total assets was funded by an increase of $81.4  million in  deposits.  Advances
from the Federal Home Loan Bank increased  $38.5 million,  securities sold under
agreements  to  repurchase  increased  $3.7  million,  Federal  funds  purchased
declined $6.0.  Additional funding was provided by the issuance of $28.8 million
of trust preferred securities.

Deposit  accounts  increased  approximately  $81.4 million or 21.18% from $386.0
million at December 31, 1996 to $467.4  million at June 30,  1997.  The increase
was a result of increases in demand deposits of $31.7 million,  savings deposits
of $7.4  million,  time  certificates  under  $100,000 of $25.2 million and time
certificates  of deposit of  $100,000  or more of $17.1  million.  Approximately
$66.6 million in deposits  were acquired from First Union  comprised of $25.0 in
demand  deposits,  $17.8  million of savings  deposits and $23.8 million of time
certificates of deposit under $100,000.

               At June 30,  1997,  the $6.0 million loan payable at December 31,
1996 was repaid  with a portion of the  proceeds  received  from the sale of the
Junior Subordinated Debentures to the Company's subsidiary, Sun Capital Trust.

               Total capital decreased $1.7 million  from  December 31, 1996  to
March 31, 1997. The increase  resulted from the Company's six month earnings  of
$1.5 million, exercises of stock options of $30,000 and a decrease in unrealized
losses on securities available for sale, net of income taxes, of $112,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

               Liquidity  management is a daily and long-term business function.
The Company's liquidity,  represented in part by cash and cash equivalents, is a
product of its  operating,  investing  and financing  activities.  Proceeds from
repayment  of  loans,  maturities  of  investment  securities,  net  income  and
increases in deposits are the primary sources of liquidity of the Company.

               The Company has experienced a significant  increase in commercial
loan demand and expects such demand to continue for the remainder of the current
fiscal year. Management has demonstrated the ability to meet this increased need
for funds by attracting  higher levels of time deposits,  engaging in repurchase
agreements,  raising  capital  and  utilizing  its  lines of credit  with  other
financial  institutions.  It also has the ability to  liquidate  portions of its
investment portfolio.

               The increase of  commercial  loans has the effect of lowering the
Company's   risk-based   capital  ratios.  In  general,   commercial  loans  are
categorized as having a 100% risk-weighting  using the calculations  required by
the  Company's  regulators.   Until  its  recent  issuance  of  Trust  Preferred
Securities,  the rate at which  commercial  loans  have grown has  outpaced  the
growth rate of the Company's capital.

                                       9
<PAGE>

               Because management intends to maintain  risk-based capital levels
that are acceptable to its regulators,  it issued an additional $3.75 million of
Trust Preferred Securities during the quarter, making a total of $28.75 million.
The Federal Reserve Board recognizes  Trust Preferred  Securities to comprise up
to 25% of the Company's Tier 1 capital.  The Company raised more than the amount
allowed  as  Tier 1  capital.  As a  result,  as the  Company's  Tier 1  capital
increases  from  earnings,  additional  Tier 1  capital  will  accrete  into the
calculation  from the Trust  Preferred  Securities  that do not now so  qualify.
Management  monitors the Company's capital levels,  and when  appropriate,  will
recommend   additional  capital  raising  efforts  to  the  Company's  board  of
directors.


Comparison  of  Operating  Results for the Three  Months Ended June 30, 1997 and
1996.

               General.  Net income  increased  by $79,000 for the three  months
ended June 30, 1997 to $803,000  from  $724,000  for the three months ended June
30, 1996. Net interest income  increased $1.0 million and the provision for loan
losses  increased  $180,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to
the same period in 1996.  Other income  increased by $13,000 to $369,000 for the
three  months  ended June 30, 1997 as compared to $356,000  for the three months
ended June 30, 1996.  Other  expenses  increased by $768,000 to $3.8 million for
the three  months  ended June 30, 1997 as compared to $3.0 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1996.

               Net Interest Income.  The increase in net interest income was due
to a $3.0 million increase in interest income partially offset by a $2.0 million
increase in interest expense.

               Interest Income.  Interest income for the three months ended June
30, 1997 increased  approximately $3.0 million , or 43.0%, from $6.9 million for
the same period in 1996 to $9.9 million in 1997.  The increase was primarily the
result of an increase  of $2.8 in  interest  and fees on loans due to the $130.2
million in loan growth from June 30, 1996, primarily from commercial loans.

               Interest  Expense.  Interest  expense for the three  months ended
June 30, 1997 increased  approximately $2.0 million, or 65.6%, from $3.0 million
for the same period in 1996 to $5.0 million in 1997. This increase was primarily
due to a $408,000  increase  in interest on deposit  accounts  resulting  from a
$96.4 million  increase in deposits from June 30, 1996; and a $831,000  increase
in interest on short-term funds borrowed  resulting from an increase in borrowed
funds from June 30, 1996.

               On March 17, 1997 the  Company's  subsidiary,  Sun Capital  Trust
(the "Trust")  issued $25 million of 9.85%  Preferred  Securities  with a stated
value and liquidation preference of $25 per share. The proceeds from the sale of
the Preferred  Securities were utilized by the Trust to invest in $25 million of
9.85% Junior Subordinated  Debentures (the "Debentures") of the Company,  due in
March 2027. On April 9, 1997,  the  underwriters  for the  Preferred  Securities
exercised  their right to purchase an  additional  $3,750,000  of the  Preferred
Securities on the same terms as the original issuance to cover  over-allotments.
The proceeds  from the sale of the  Preferred  Securities  were  utilized by the
Trust to invest in $3,750,000 of the Debentures of the Company. In view of these
transactions,  the  Company  may  incur  increased  interest  expense  in future
periods. For the three months ended June 30, 1997, the Company incurred $728,000
of such interest expense.

               Provision  for Loan  Losses.  For the three months ended June 30,
1997,  the  provision  for loan  losses  amounted  to  $405,000,  an increase of
$180,000,  or 80.0%,  compared  to  $225,000  for the same  period in 1996.  The
increase  was  primarily  the  result  of the  increase  in the  Company's  loan
portfolio of  approximately  $130.2  million at June 30, 1997 compared with June
30, 1996,  primarily from commercial loans.  Management  continually reviews the
adequacy of the loan loss reserve  using  guidelines  promulgated  by the Bank's
primary regulator.

                                       10
<PAGE>

               Other Income.  Other income increased $12,000 for the three month
period  ended June 30, 1997  compared to the three month  period  ended June 30,
1996.  The increase was a result of higher levels of service  charges on deposit
accounts of $20,000,  caused by a higher fee structure and from a larger deposit
base resulting from previous branch acquisitions as well as internal growth; and
an  increase of $41,000 in other  income  resulting  from higher  levels of fees
resulting  from an  increased  customer  base.  This was  partially  offset by a
reduction in gains on sales of  investment  securities  by $21,000 and a $24,000
reduction in other service charges.


               Other Expenses.  Other expenses increased approximately $768,000,
to $3.8  million  for the three  months  ended June 30, 1997 as compared to $3.0
million for the same period in 1996.  The  increase  was a result of operating a
larger  organization.  Of the  increase,  $479,000  was in salaries and employee
benefits,  $115,000 in equipment  expense,  $62,000 in  miscellaneous  expenses,
$55,000 in  amortization  of excess of cost over fair value of assets  acquired,
$42,000 in data processing  expense and $34,000 in insurance  expense.  This was
offset by  decreases  of $6,000 in postage and supplies and $16,000 in occupancy
expense.  The  increase in other  expenses  reflects the  Company's  strategy to
support  planned  expansion.  Salaries and benefits  increased due to additional
staff positions in lending, loan review,  compliance and audit departments.  The
increase  in data  processing  expense and  equipment  expense was the result of
operating  a larger  institution  than in the  previous  year.  The  increase in
insurance  expense  resulted from higher premium payments to the Federal Deposit
Insurance  Corporation  ("FDIC") in 1997.  The higher amount was a result of the
Bank  being  assessed  a  premium  based  on  a  capital  level  of  "adequately
capitalized."  As a  result  of the  Company's  increased  capital,  the FDIC is
expected to be reduced in future  periods.  The decreased  occupancy  expense is
related to lower utility usage and grounds  maintenance  from a milder winter in
1997 and savings resulting from real estate tax appeals.

               Income Taxes.  Applicable  income taxes decreased  $7,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 1997 as compared  to  the  same  period in 1996. The
decrease  resulted from a lower effective tax rate.


Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.

               General. Net income increased by $90,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 1997 to $1.5  million  from $1.4  million for the six months ended June
30, 1996. Net interest income  increased $1.7 million and the provision for loan
losses increased $375,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997 compared to the
same period in 1996.  Other income  decreased by $82,000 to $776,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to $858,000 for the six months ended June
30, 1996.  Other expenses  increased by $1.2 million to $7.3 million for the six
months  ended June 30, 1997 as compared to $6.1 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1996.

               Net Interest Income.  The increase in net interest income was due
to a $4.8 million increase in interest income partially offset by a $3.1 million
increase in interest expense.

               Interest  Income.  Interest  income for the six months ended June
30, 1997 increased approximately $4.8 million , or 35.7%, from $13.4 million for
the same period in 1996 to $18.1 million in 1997. The increase was primarily the
result of an increase  of $5.2 in  interest  and fees on loans due to the $130.2
million in loan growth from June 30, 1996, primarily from commercial loans. This
was  partially  offset by a decrease  in interest on  investment  securities  of
$417,000  , from $3.7  million  for the six months  ended June 30,  1996 to $3.3
million for the same period in 1997. The decrease was a result of a lower volume
investment portfolio.

                                       11
<PAGE>



               Interest Expense.  Interest expense for the six months ended June
30, 1997 increased  approximately $3.1 million,  or 55.3%, from $5.6 million for
the same period in 1996 to $8.7 million in 1997. This increase was primarily due
to a $1 million increase in interest on deposit accounts  resulting from a $96.4
million  increase in deposits from June 30, 1996; and a $1.2 million increase in
interest on short-term funds borrowed resulting from a sharp increase in average
borrowed funds from June 30, 1996.

               On March 17, 1997 the  Company's  subsidiary,  Sun Capital  Trust
(the "Trust")  issued $25 million of 9.85%  Preferred  Securities  with a stated
value and liquidation preference of $25 per share. The proceeds from the sale of
the Preferred  Securities were utilized by the Trust to invest in $25 million of
9.85% Junior Subordinated  Debentures (the "Debentures") of the Company,  due in
March 2027. On April 9, 1997,  the  underwriters  for the  Preferred  Securities
exercised  their right to purchase an  additional  $3,750,000  of the  Preferred
Securities on the same terms as the original issuance to cover  over-allotments.
The proceeds  from the sale of the  Preferred  Securities  were  utilized by the
Trust to invest in $3,750,000 of the Debentures of the Company. In view of these
transactions,  the  Company  may  incur  increased  interest  expense  in future
periods.  For the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company incurred  $825,000
of such interest expense.

               Provision  for Loan  Losses.  For the six  months  ended June 30,
1997,  the  provision  for loan  losses  amounted  to  $825,000,  an increase of
$375,000,  or 83.3%,  compared  to  $450,000  for the same  period in 1996.  The
increase  was  primarily  the  result  of the  increase  in the  Company's  loan
portfolio of  approximately  $130.2  million at June 30, 1997 compared with June
30, 1996,  primarily from commercial loans.  Management  continually reviews the
adequacy of the loan loss reserve  using  guidelines  promulgated  by the Bank's
primary regulator.

               Other Income.  Other income  decreased  $82,000 for the six month
period ended June 30, 1997 compared to the six month period ended June 30, 1996.
The  decrease  was a primarily  a result of lower  gains on sales of  investment
securities  in 1997.  These gains were $191,000 for the first six months of 1996
compared to $16,000 for the same period in 1997.  This  decrease  was  partially
offset by an increase of $97,000 on service charges on deposits  accounts,  from
$488,000  for the six months ended June 30, 1996 to $585,000 for the same period
in 1997.  The  increase was caused by a higher fee  structure  and from a larger
deposit base resulting  from previous  branch  acquisitions  as well as internal
growth;


               Other  Expenses.  Other  expenses  increased  approximately  $1.2
million,  to $7.3  million for the six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to
$6.1 million for the same period in 1996. The increase was a result of operating
a larger  organization.  Of the increase,  $730,000 was in salaries and employee
benefits,  $183,000 in equipment expense,  $177,000 in data processing  expense,
$119,000 in miscellaneous expenses,  $77,000 in insurance expense and $55,000 in
amortization  of excess of cost over  fair  value of assets  acquired.  This was
offset by  decreases of $53,000 in postage and supplies and $61,000 in occupancy
expense.  The  increase in other  expenses  reflects the  Company's  strategy to
support  planned  expansion.  Salaries and benefits  increased due to additional
staff positions in lending, loan review,  compliance and audit departments.  The
increase  in data  processing  expense and  equipment  expense was the result of
operating  a larger  institution  than in the  previous  year.  The  increase in
insurance  expense  resulted from higher premium payments to the Federal Deposit
Insurance  Corporation  ("FDIC") in 1997.  The higher amount was a result of the
Bank  being  assessed  a  premium  based  on  a  capital  level  of  "adequately
capitalized."  As a  result  of the  Company's  increased  capital,  the FDIC is
expected to be reduced in future  periods.  The decreased  occupancy  expense is
related to lower utility usage and grounds  maintenance  from a milder winter in
1997 and savings resulting from real estate tax appeals.

               Income Taxes.  Applicable  income  taxes  decreased  $78,000  for
the six months ended June 30, 1997 as compared to the same period  in  1996. The
decrease  resulted from a lower effective tax rate.
