(1)  Accounting Polices

     The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Harris
Financial, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Harris Savings Bank. In turn,
Harris Savings Bank is the sole owner of the following subsidiaries: Avstar
Mortgage Corporation, Harris Delaware Corporation, H. S. Service Corporation,
First Harrisburg Service Corporation, and C.B.L. Service Corporation. All
material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

     The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In
the opinion of management all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of interim periods
have been made. Operating results for the nine months and three months period
ended September 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
be expected for the year ended December 31, 1997 or any other interim period.

     The accounting policies followed in the presentation of interim financial
results are consistent with those followed on an annual basis. These policies
are presented on pages 34 through 36 of the 1996 Annual Report to Stockholders.

On January 1, 1996, the Registrant adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 122 "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights" (SFAS 122). SFAS
122 requires an institution to recognize as separate assets the rights to
service mortgage loans for others when a mortgage is sold or securitized and the
servicing rights are retained. SFAS 122 also requires the reporting entity to
measure the impairment of the servicing rights based on the difference between
the carrying amount of the servicing rights and their current fair value. On
January 1, 1997, the Registrant adopted SFAS No. 125 "Accounting for Transfers
and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities", which
supersedes SFAS No. 122. SFAS 125 expands the method of accounting for loan
servicing rights to apply to purchased mortgage servicing rights. The preceding
table reflects the informational requirements of SFAS 125.

(5)  Non-operational Loss

The Registrant's wholly owned subsidiary, Harris Savings Bank (Bank) experienced
a non-operational loss in the second quarter of 1996. This loss was due to
certain violations of internal control policies and certain unauthorized
external activities concerning the Bank's relationship with a mortgage brokering
company. First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Harrisburg ("First
Federal"), which was merged into the Bank, entered into an agreement to purchase
participation interests from a mortgage brokering company, which originated
mortgages, pursuant to a Mortgage Loan Sale and Servicing Agreement
("Agreement"). The internal control violations and unauthorized activities
described above were consummated in conjunction with this agreement. The
Agreement was assumed by the Bank upon its purchase of First Federal on April
19, 1996. Subsequent to its purchase of First Federal, the Bank became aware of
these activities. The Bank then completed an internal review and an independent
external review was completed to identify the scope, impact and effect of the
unauthorized activities. In addition, certain corrective procedures were
implemented to address this situation. The Bank has ceased purchasing loans
originated by the mortgage brokering company and no longer provides table funds
for loans originated by the mortgage brokering company. Also, the Bank took
possession of certain assets of the mortgage brokering company. As a result of
these activities, the Bank incurred a loss of $4,205,000, which was recorded as
non-interest expense in the second quarter of 1996. It is management's opinion
that this event will not have any adverse impact on ongoing operations.

Subsequent to the occurrence of the activities detailed above, the Registrant
entered legal proceedings against the company that purchased the mortgages.
These proceedings were brought about as a result of alleged negligence by the
mortgage company. During the third quarter of 1997, the Registrant and the
mortgage company entered into a settlement related to this issue. As a result of
this settlement, the Registrant recognized a pre-tax gain of $1,556,000, which
is recorded as other income on the Consolidated Statements of Income for the
nine months and three months ending September 30, 1997.

                                   (Unaudited)


(6)  New Accounting Standards

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS 128), "Earnings Per Share". SFAS
128, which supersedes APB Opinion No. 15 (APB 15), "Earnings Per Share",
specifies the computation, presentation, and disclosure requirements for
earnings per share (EPS) for entities with publicly held common stock. It
replaces the presentation of primary EPS required by APB 15 with a presentation
of basic EPS. Basic EPS, unlike primary EPS, excludes dilution and is computed
by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding for the period. SFAS 128 also requires the
presentation of diluted EPS, which is computed similarly to fully diluted EPS
under APB 15. Harris Financial, Inc. will adopt SFAS 128 as of December 31,
1997. Management does not expect the adoption of SFAS 128 to have a material
effect on the company's earnings per share calculation.

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 (SFAS 130), "Reporting Comprehensive
Income" and Statement of Accounting Standards No. 131 (SFAS 131), "Disclosures
About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information". Both SFAS 130 and SFAS
131 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.

SFAS 130 establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income
and its components. The statement requires that comprehensive income be reported
in a financial statement and be displayed with the same prominence as other
financial information. Comprehensive income, as defined by SFAS 130, is the
total of net income and all other nonowner changes in equity. Management
believes that the adoption of this statement will not have a material effect on
the Registrant's financial condition or results of operations.

(7)  Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

In the ordinary course of business, the Registrant makes commitments to extend
letters of credit to its customers. At September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996,
standby letters of credit issued and outstanding amounted to $2,322,000 and
$3,206,000 respectively. These letters of credit are not reflected in the
accompanying financial statements. Management does not anticipate any
significant losses as a result of these transactions.

At September 30, 1997, the Registrant has $118,019,000 in unused line of credit
commitments extended to its customers.

(8)  Common Stock Split

On October 21, 1997, the Board of Directors of Harris Financial, Inc. declared a
3 for 1 stock split to be effected in the form of a dividend to stockholders of
record as of November 4, 1997, and payable on November 18, 1997. All share and
per share information in this report has been restated to reflect the stock
split as if it had been in effect during all periods presented.

(9)  Reorganization

On September 17, 1997, Harris Savings Bank and its existing mutual holding
company, Harris Financial, MHC, reorganized into a two-tier mutual holding
company structure with the establishment of a state chartered holding company,
Harris Financial, Inc., as the parent of the Bank. Under the terms of this
reorganization, each share of Harris Savings Bank stock was exchanged for one
share of Harris Financial Inc., stock.

The reorganization was accounted for in a manner similar to a pooling of
interest. Accordingly, the prior period consolidated financial statements of
Harris Financial, Inc. are identical to the prior period consolidated financial
statements of Harris Savings Bank.

Prior to the consummation of this reorganization, the Registrant received the
approval of the Federal Reserve, the Pennsylvania Department of Banking, and the
FDIC.

Item 2 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results 
       of Operations

     The following is management's discussion and analysis of the significant
     changes in the results of operations, capital resources and liquidity
     presented in its accompanying interim consolidated financial statements for
     Harris Financial, Inc. Please note that Harris Financial, Inc., (the
     Registrant) is the successor to issuer to Harris Savings Bank (the Bank).
     This discussion should be read in conjunction with the 1996 Annual Report.
     Current performance does not guarantee, and may not be indicative of
     similar performance in the future.

     In addition to historical information, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
     contains forward-looking statements, as such term is defined in the
     Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 and the regulations thereunder. The
     forward-looking statements contained herein are subject to certain risks
     and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from
     those projected in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that
     might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, those
     discussed in the section entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
     Financial Condition and Results of Operations". Readers are cautioned not
     to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect
     management's analysis only as of the date hereof. The Registrant undertakes
     no obligation to publicly revise or update these forward-looking statements
     to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date hereof.

(a)  Results of Operations

     NET INCOME OR LOSS The net income for the current nine month period was
     $15,032,000, representing an increase of $16,530,000 or 1,103.5% from the
     $1,498,000 loss reported during the first nine months of 1996. The net
     income for the current quarter was $5,258,000, which was an $8,653,000 or
     254.9% increase from the $3,395,000 loss for the comparable period of 1996.

     NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income, on a tax equivalent basis, totaled
     $38,682,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, which represents
     an increase of $8,760,000, or 29.3%, from the $29,922,000 of net interest
     income recorded in the nine months ended September 30, 1996. This increase
     reflected a favorable volume variance of $5,511,000 due to a $477.3 million
     increase in total average earning assets to $1.874 billion during the year
     to date period ended September 30, 1997 as compared to $1.397 billion
     recorded during the same period ending September 30, 1996.

     The net volume variance of $5,511,000 was caused by the following factors:
        
     (1)  Other loans generated a positive $3,768,000 volume variance which
          resulted from increased average balances acquired as part of the
          acquisition of First Harrisburg Bancorp.
         
     (2)  Marketable Securities - Taxable produced a $18,598,000 favorable
          volume variance which is due to growth in average balances that
          reflects the ongoing execution of the current investment strategy
          intended to deploy surplus capital generated by ongoing operations.
         
     (3)  Marketable Securities - Tax Free generated a positive volume variance
          of $4,196,000 which is based on the growth in average balances that
          reflects the Registrant's emphasis on using investment operations to
          enhance overall profitability on a tax-equivalent basis.
         
     (4)  Borrowed funds generated an unfavorable volume variance of $20,448,000
          which reflects the Registrant's increased reliance on wholesale
          funding versus customer deposits.

     The net favorable rate variance of $3,249,000 was caused by the following:
        
     (1)  Even though the average dollar balances of the Mortgage portfolio
          decreased, the yield on this portfolio increased by 23 basis points to
          8.23% and created a favorable rate variance of $1,000,000.
        
     (2)  The yield on Marketable Securities - Taxable increased by 47 basis
          points to 6.86% and produced favorable rate variances of $1,894,000.

     The current reliance on wholesale funding sources instead of customer
     deposits has had the effect of increasing the Registrant's interest cost of
     funds. The reliance on wholesale funding is caused by a redeployment of
     excess capital generated from ongoing operations into an interest earning
     capacity. The ultimate objective of this leveraging strategy is to redeploy
     the current investment purchases into higher yielding assets that are
     consistent with prudent Asset Liability Management (ALM) objectives.
     However, the initial phases of the asset redeployment strategy generated a
     decline in the net interest margin of 11 basis points to 2.75% in the year
     to date period ended September 30, 1997 as compared to 2.86% recorded in
     the nine month period ended September 30, 1996.

     Net interest income, on a tax equivalent basis, totaled $13,307,000 for the
     three month period ended September 30, 1997, which represents an increase
     of $2,924,000 or 28.2%, from the $10,383,000 of net interest income
     recorded in the quarter ended September 30, 1996. This increase reflected a
     favorable net volume variance of $1,348,000, due to a $459.5 million
     increase in total average earning assets to $2.023 billion during the three
     month period ended September 30, 1997 as compared to $1.563 billion
     recorded during the same quarter in the prior year. During this time
     period, the increased emphasis on Marketable Securities - Taxable
     investments produced a favorable volume variance of $8,159,000, while the
     increased reliance on borrowed funds generated an unfavorable volume
     variance of $7,371,000. Yield improvements in Mortgage loans, Marketable
     securities - Taxable and Marketable securities - Taxfree generated positive
     rate variances of $747,000, $310,000, and $281,000, respectively. Stable
     interest costs produced an unfavorable rate variance of $93,000. Finally,
     the leveraging strategy outlined in the preceding paragraph above, produced
     a reduction in net interest margin of 3 basis points to 2.63% in the three
     month period ended September 30, 1997, from the 2.66% recorded in the three
     month period ended September 30, 1996.

     Table 1 on the following pages presents the Registrant's average asset and
     liability balances, interest rates, interest income, and interest expense
     for each of the nine month periods and the quarters ended September 30,
     1997 and September 30, 1996, respectively. Table 2 presents a rate-volume
     analysis of changes in net interest income.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES There was a $457,000 provision for loan losses
recorded in the nine months ended September 30, 1997, due to actual and
anticipated loan growth, versus a $1,362,000 provision for loan losses recorded
in the nine months ended September 30, 1996.

In addition, there was a $153,000 provision for loan losses recorded in the
three months ended September 30, 1997, due to actual and anticipated loan
growth, versus $942,000 recorded in the quarter ended September 30, 1996.

NONINTEREST INCOME Noninterest income totaled $11,028,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997. This represents an increase of $7,275,000, or 193.8%,
from the $3,753,000 recorded in the year to date period ending September 30,
1996. This increase can be attributed to several factors. The primary reason was
a $3,424,000 gain associated with the sale of mortgage backed securities in the
nine months ending September 30, 1997. This represents a $3,776,000 increase
over the $352,000 loss reported in the comparable period in 1996. In addition,
the sale of mortgage loans produced a $1,544,000 gain for the nine months ending
September 30, 1997. The year to date 1997 performance represents a $527,000
increase over the comparable nine month period in 1996. Finally, other income
generated $1,760,000, or a $1,186,000 increase over the prior nine month period
that ended in September 1996 primarily due a recovery associated with the
non-operational loss described in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements,
Item (5) Non-operational Loss. The nine month period ending September 30, 1996,
included a non-recurring gain of $389,000 from the sale of the Registrant's
credit card portfolio.

Noninterest Income totaled $4,310,000 for the three month period ended September
30, 1997, which represents an increase of $2,629,000 or 156.4%, from the
$1,681,000 recorded in the three month period ended September 30, 1996. This
increase can be attributed primarily to the following factors. Gains on the sale
of mortgage backed securities totalled $690,000 for the quarter ending September
30, 1997. This represents an increase of $1,707,000 over the $1,017,000 loss
generated during the comparable third quarter in 1996. Other income totalled
$1,507,000 for the quarter ending September 30, 1997, a $956,000 or 173.5%
increase from the same quarter in 1996. This increase was primarily caused by a
recovery associated with the non-operational loss which is described in Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements, Item (5) Non-operational Loss. The three
month period ending September 30, 1996, included a non-recurring gain of
$389,000 from the sale of the Registrant's credit card portfolio.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE Noninterest Expense was $24,730,000 for the nine month
period ending September 30, 1997. This is a decrease of $9,170,000, or 27.1%,
from the $33,900,000 reported for the nine month period ending September 30,
1996. The decrease in Noninterest Expense was caused, primarily, by a one-time
Savings Association Insurance Fund assessment paid in 1996, as required by the
Deposit Insurance Funds Act of 1996. In addition, the Registrant recognized a
non-operating loss of $4,205,000, in the second quarter of 1996, which loss was
associated with a mortgage warehouse fraud. No such losses or assessments were
recorded in 1997.

Offsetting these decreases were the following increases which are primarily
attributable to the acquisition of First Harrisburg Bancor, Inc. in 1996:

(1)  A $1,773,000 or 16.3% increase in Salaries and Benefits to $12,685,000 for
     the nine months ended September 30, 1997 vs. the $10,912,000 for the nine
     months ended September 30, 1996.
         
(2)  A $421,000 or 40.1% increase in Equipment Expense to $1,472,000 for the
     nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared to $1,051,000 for the nine
     months ended September 30, 1996.
         
(3)  A $367,000 or 20.4% increase in Occupancy Expense to $2,163,000 for the
     nine months ended September 30, 1997 compared to $1,796,000 for the
     comparable period in 1996.
         
(4)  A $286,000 or 19.1% increase in Amortization of Intangibles to $1,787,000
     for the nine months 


                                     Page 19

     ended September 30, 1997 compared to $1,501,000 for the nine months ended
     September 30, 1996.

     The remaining significant increase is a $447,000 or 43.9% increase in
     Advertising and Public relations from the September 30, 1997 nine month
     period balance of $1,466,000 versus the $1,019,000 expenditure for the
     comparable period in 1996. This change reflects additional costs of a
     marketing campaign designed to increase the market share penetration in
     certain deposit accounts, especially transaction accounts, of the Bank, the
     Registrant's wholly-ownded subsidiary.

     Noninterest expense equaled $8,838,000 for the quarter ended September 30,
     1997, which represents a decrease of $7,261,000, or 45.1%, from the
     $16,099,000 figure recorded in the quarter ended September 30, 1996. The
     major reason for this performance was the one time recapitalization of the
     SAIF fund that transpired in the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 1996.

     PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES Corporate income tax expense totaled $7,301,000
     for the nine month period ended September 30, 1997, which resulted in an
     effective tax rate of 32.7% on pretax income of $22,333,000. This
     represents an increase of $6,578,000 from the $723,000 reversal of
     corporate tax expense recorded during the nine month period ended September
     30, 1996. During the nine month period in 1996 Harris Savings Bank produced
     a pretax operating loss of $2,221,000.

     Income tax expense totaled $2,582,000 for the quarter ended September 30,
     1997, which resulted in an effective tax rate of 32.9% on a pretax income
     of $7,840,000. During the comparable period in 1996, the Registrant, as
     successor to the Bank, recorded a pretax operating loss of $5,335,000 that
     produced a reduction in the tax provision of $1,940,000.

     Item 2 Management's Discussion of Financial Condition and Results of
     Operations

     (b)  Material Changes in Financial Condition

     SOURCES AND USES OF FUNDS Total cash and cash equivalents increased $41.4
     million during the nine month period ended September 30, 1997. For the
     comparable period ending September 30, 1996, cash and cash equivalents
     decreased by $5.5 million. Operating activities generated cash totaling
     $18.7 million and $11.2 million during the nine month periods ended
     September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996, respectively. During the nine
     month period ending September 30, 1997, investing activities of the
     Registrant resulted in a net use of cash of $293.2 million, due mainly to
     $755.8 million in purchases of marketable securities which was partially
     offset by marketable security sales totaling $495.4 million. During the
     nine month period ending September 30, 1996, purchases for the Bank's
     portfolio of marketable securities used cash of $408.3 million, and loan
     purchases absorbed another $188.9 million. These purchases were partially
     offset by security sales totaling $176.2 million. The increase in
     marketable securities activity in 1997 relative to 1996 results primarily
     from the Registrant's reliance on using this portfolio to profitably deploy
     excess capital generated by net income. The Bank's financing activities for
     the nine month period ending September 30, 1997, resulted in a net sources
     of cash totaling $315.9 million, which is primarily attributable to
     borrowing increases of $365.7 million. The borrowing increases result from
     the Registrant's reliance on primarily wholesale funding sources to support
     investment operations. During the nine months ending September 30, 1996,
     deposits inflows and other borrowings provided cash of $103.0 million and
     $348.5 million, respectively.

     STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY Stockholders' equity totaled $173.0 million, $152.8
     million, and $147.5 million at September 30, 1997, December 31, 1996, and
     September 30, 1996, respectively. Stockholders' Equity amounted to 8.2% on
     total assets of $2.110 billion as of September 30, 1997, compared to 8.6%
     on total assets of $1.768 billion at December 31, 1996, and 8.6% on total
     assets of $1.724 billion at September 30, 1996.

     The increase in Stockholders' equity of $20.3 million or 13.3% in the nine
     months ended 


                                     Page 20


<PAGE>



     September 30, 1997 resulted mainly from the increase of $15.0 million in
     income from ongoing operations, and $4.6 million from an increase in the
     market value, net of tax effect, of the available-for-sale securities
     portfolio. The increase in Stockholders' equity of $25.5 million or 17.3%
     in the twelve month period ended September 30, 1997, consisted primarily of
     net additions of $17.6 million in income from ongoing operations and a net
     increase of $7.4 million in the market value, net of tax effect, of the
     available-for-sale securities portfolio.

     REGULATORY CAPITAL COMPLIANCE Risk-based capital standards are issued by
     bank regulatory agencies in the United States. These capital standards link
     a banking company's capital to the risk profile of its assets and provide
     the basis by which all banking companies and banks are evaluated in terms
     of capital adequacy. These risk-based capital standards require all banks
     to have Tier 1 capital of at least 4.0% and total capital, including Tier
     1 capital, equal to at least 8.0% of risk-adjusted assets. Tier 1 capital
     consists of common stockholders' equity and qualifying perpetual preferred
     stock along with related surpluses and retained earnings. Total capital is
     comprised of Tier 1 capital, limited life preferred stock, qualifying debt
     instruments, and the reserves for possible loan losses. Furthermore, the
     banking regulators also issue leverage ratio requirements. The leverage
     ratio requirement is measured at the ratio Tier 1 capital to adjusted
     average assets. The following table provides a comparison of Harris
     Financial, Inc.'s risk-based capital ratios and leverage ratio to the
     minimum regulatory requirements for the period indicated.

LOANS Net loans, including loans held for sale, totaled $893.7 million, $833.0
million, and $960.6 million at September 30, 1997, December 31, 1996, and
September 30, 1996, respectively. The increase of $60.7 million, or 7.3%, for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997, reflects primarily growth in
Commercial Loans. The decrease of $66.8 million, or 7.0%, for twelve month
period ended September 30, 1997, resulted from the Registrant's emphasis on
selling conforming mortgage loans. These developments are part of a strategy
designed to enhance the Registrant's ROE (Return on Equity) and maximize
shareholder value, while managing interest rate risk.

Table 4 on the following page presents an analysis of the Registrant's loan
portfolio as of September 30, 1997, December 31, 1996, and September 30, 1996,
respectively.

MORTGAGE SERVICING RIGHTS As of September 30, 1997, December 31, 1996, and
September 30, 1996 the Bank held mortgage loan servicing rights with carrying
values totaling $12.0 million, $12.3 million, and $11.2 million, respectively.
The unpaid principal balances of loans serviced for others totaled $1.055
billion, $1.064 billion, and $812 million at September 30, 1997, December 31,
1996, and September 30, 1996, respectively. The Bank recorded amortization
expense on mortgage loan servicing rights totaling $1,095,000 during the nine
months ended September 30, 1997. The Bank recorded amortization expense on
mortgage loan servicing rights of $1,154,000, which included an impairment
valuation allowance of $122,000, in the first nine months of 1996.

At September 30, 1997, the total amount of capitalized mortgage servicing rights
(including mortgage servicing rights purchased) was $12,014,000 before the
valuation allowance. The valuation allowance for impairment related to such
rights was $126,000 at September 30, 1997. The fair value of such rights was
approximately $15,828,000 at September 30, 1997.

ASSET QUALITY The Registrant's experience in credit losses continues to rank
among the best in the community banking industry. Due to prudent underwriting
activities and the relatively stable economic environment in the Registrant's
primary market area, the Registrant's overall loan quality remains strong. To
enhance this condition, management follows a policy of continuous credit loss
monitoring, including an assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan
loss. This assessment is performed by considering current asset quality,
anticipated external economic conditions, overall trends of internal delinquency
by loan category, and the balance of loans within the portfolio. These
assessments are performed on a quarterly basis and the provision for loan losses
is adjusted accordingly.

Loan charge-offs, net of recoveries, totaled $85,000 for the nine month period
ended September 30, 1997, compared to $409,000 for the nine month period ended
September 30, 1996. Loan charge-offs, net of recoveries, totaled $499,000 for
the twelve month period ended September 30, 1997. Based on management's
continuing review of the loan portfolio, the Registrant recorded provision for
loan losses of $457,000 for the nine month, and $1,052,000 for the 12 month
periods ending September 30, 1996.

The allowance for loan losses totaled $8,695,000, $8,322,000, and $8,141,000 at
September 30, 1997, December 31, 1996, and September 30, 1996, respectively.
Stated as a percentage of total loans receivable, the allowance for loan losses
amounted to .96%, .99%, and .84% at September 30, 1997, December 31, 1996, and
September 30, 1996, respectively.

DEPOSITS Deposits, not including escrow funds, totaled $1.128 billion, $1.173
billion, and $1.177 billion at September 30, 1997, December 31, 1996, and
September 30, 1996, respectively. Total deposits declined by $45.2 million, or
3.9%, during the nine months ended September 30, 1997. In addition, total
deposits declined by $48.5 million or 4.1% during the twelve months ending
September 30, 1997. Both the nine month and twelve month declines reflect the
Registrant's strategy of leveraging an existing surplus capital base and paying
competitive, but not top market rates on the remaining deposit base. The deposit
decline has been offset by increased reliance on other borrowings.

Table 5 on the following page presents the composition of the Registrant's
deposit portfolio as of September 30, 1997, December 31, 1996, and September 30,
1996, respectively.

OTHER BORROWINGS During the nine and twelve month periods ended September 30,
1997, the Registrant actively engaged in leveraging activities to redeploy its
excess capital. This strategy relies on using external sources of funds to
invest in interest earning assets at a positive spread between the yield on
interest earning asset and the cost of the support borrowing.

Other borrowings totaled $786.3 million, $420.6 million, and $367.7 million at
September 30, 1997, December 31, 1996, and September 30, 1996, respectively.
Borrowings from non-deposit funding sources increased $365.7 million, or 86.9%,
during the nine months ended September 30, 1997, and increased $418.6 million,
or 113.8%, during the twelve month period ended September 30, 1997. The
increases were due to the increase in FHLB advances to $500.9 million, which
represents an increase of $81.7 million, or 19.5%, and $174.2 million, or 53.3%,
during the nine months and twelve months ended September 30, 1997, respectively.
In addition, Other Borrowings were boosted by repurchase agreements, which
amounted to $284.4 million at September 30, 1997, versus $0 at December 31,
1996, and $39.5 million on September 30, 1996.

The implementation of the Registrant's leveraging strategy has not impaired its
access to external funds. At the end of the nine month period ending September
30, 1997, the Registrant had maximum FHLB lines of credit totalling $911.9
million vs $935.2 million in available FHLB credit for the nine month period
ending September 30, 1996. This marginal decline of 2.5% or $23.3 million is
based on increased repurchase activity during 1997. Whenever a financial
institution utilizes repurchases as a funding option, the maximum amount of
credit available from the FHLB is correspondingly reduced. This shift in
external funding sources is predicated on the current cost of funds advantage
associated with the repurchase transactions.

Table 6 on the following page presents the composition of the Registrant's other
borrowings as of September 30, 1997, December 31, 1996, and September 30, 1996,
respectively.

LIQUIDITY The Registrant's primary sources of funds are deposits and proceeds
from principal and interest payments on loans and mortgage-backed securities.
While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and mortgage-backed
securities are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and mortgage
prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic
conditions, and competition. The Registrant anticipates that it will have
sufficient funds available to meet its current commitments.

The Registrant exceeded all regulatory standards for liquidity at September 30,
1997, December 31, 1996, and September 30, 1996.

OTHER MATTERS On January 29, 1997, the Bank filed an F-3 regarding the formation
of a two tier mutual holding company structure which was incorporated by
reference in the March 31, 1997 F-4 report. On September 17, 1997 the Federal
Reserve approved the formation of Harris Financial, Inc. (the Registrant), a
second tier holding company, which owns 100% of the outstanding shares of
Harris Savings Bank (HSB). All September 30, 1997 financial information reflects
the combined operations of the Registrant and it's wholly owned subsidiary,
Harris Savings Bank.

REGULATORY ACTIVITY Recently, Pennsylvania enacted a law to permit State
chartered banking institutions to sell insurance. This follows a U.S. Supreme
Court decision in favor of nationwide insurance sales by banks and which also
bars states from blocking insurance sales by national banks in towns with
populations of no more than 5,000. The Bank is currently evaluating its options
regarding the sale of insurance.

Congress is currently considering legislative reforms to modernize the financial
services industry, including repealing the Glass Steagall Act which prohibits
commercial banks from engaging in the securities industry. Consequently, equity
underwriting activities of banks may increase in the near future.

The Deposit Insurance Funds Act of 1996 also provides regulatory relief to the
financial services industry relative to environmental risks, frequency of
examinations, and the simplification of forms and disclosures.

From time to time, various types of federal and state legislation have been
proposed that could result in additional regulation of, and restrictions on, the
business of the Registrant and the Bank. It cannot be predicted whether such
legislation will be enacted or, if enacted, how such legislation would affect
the business of the Registrant and the Bank. As a consequence of the extensive
regulation of commercial banking activities in the United States, the
Registrant's and the Bank's business is particularly susceptible to being
affected by federal legislation and regulations that may increase the costs of
doing business. Except as specifically described above, Management believes that
the affect of the provisions of the aforementioned legislation on the liquidity,
capital resources, and results of operations of the Registrant will be
immaterial. Management is not aware of any other current specific
recommendations by regulatory authorities or proposed legislation, which if they
were implemented, would have a material adverse effect upon the liquidity,
capital resources, or results of operations, although the general cost of
compliance with numerous and multiple federal and state laws and regulations
does have, and in the future may have, a negative impact on the Registrant's
results of operations.

Further, the business of the Registrant is also affected by the state of the
financial services industry in general. As a result of legal and industry
changes, Management predicts that the industry will continue to experience an
increase in consolidations and mergers as the financial services industry
strives for greater cost efficiencies and market share. Management also expects
increased diversification of financial products and services offered by the Bank
and its competitors. Management believes that such consolidations and mergers,
and diversification of products and services may enhance its competitive
position as a community bank.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE The Registrant is in the process of assessing the cost and
extent of vulnerability of the Registrant's computer systems to the "Year 2000
problem." Modifications or replacements of computer systems to attain Year 2000
compliance have begun, and the Registrant expects to attain Year 2000 compliance
and institute appropriate testing of its modifications and replacements before
the Year 2000 date change. The Registrant believes that, with modifications to
existing software and conversions to new software, the Year 2000 problem will
not pose a significant operational problem for the Registrant. However, because
most computer systems are, by their very nature, interdependent, it is possible
that non-compliant third party computers could "reinfect" the Registrant's
computer systems. The Registrant could be adversely affected by the Year 2000
problem if it or unrelated parties fail to successfully address this problem.
The Registrant has taken steps to communicate with the unrelated parties with
whom it deals to coordinate Year 2000 compliance. The costs incurred in
addressing the Year 2000 Problem will be expensed as incurred, in compliance
with GAAP.

The financial impact to the Registrant of Year 2000 compliance has not been and
is not anticipated to be material to the Registrant's financial position or
results of operations in any given year.

(1) The 1997 and 1996 earnings per share calculations reflect the retroactive
effect of a 3 for 1 stock split effected in the form of a dividend that was
approved by the Board of Directors on October 22, 1997. The dividend was
declared to stockholders of record as of November 4, 1997 and will be paid on
November 18, 1997.

(2) Common stock equivalents are not factored into the 1996 per share
calculations as the inclusion of these equivalents would have an anti-dilutive
impact on the calculation.
