Item 1. Description of Business
- -------------------------------

Forward Looking Statements

         Sistersville  Bancorp,  Inc. (the "Company") may from time to time make
written or oral "forward-looking statements",  including statements contained in
the Company's  filings with the  Securities and Exchange  Commission  (including
this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB and the exhibits  thereto),  in its reports to
stockholders and in other communications by the Company,  which are made in good
faith by the Company  pursuant to the "safe  harbor"  provisions  of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

         These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties,  such
as statements of the Company's plans,  objectives,  expectations,  estimates and
intentions,  that are subject to change based on various important factors (some
of which are beyond the Company's control). The following factors, among others,
could cause the Company's  financial  performance to differ  materially from the
plans,  objectives,  expectations,  estimates and  intentions  expressed in such
forward-looking statements: the strength of the United States economy in general
and  the  strength  of  the  local  economies  in  which  the  Company  conducts
operations;  the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies
and laws,  including  interest  rate  policies of the Board of  Governors of the
Federal  Reserve  System,   inflation,   interest  rate,   market  and  monetary
fluctuations;  the timely  development  of and  acceptance  of new  products and
services of the Company and the perceived  overall  value of these  products and
services by users,  including  the  features,  pricing  and quality  compared to
competitors'  products and  services;  the  willingness  of users to  substitute
competitors' products and services for the Company's products and services;  the
success of the  Company in  gaining  regulatory  approval  of its  products  and
services,  when required;  the impact of changes in financial services' laws and
regulations   (including  laws  concerning   taxes,   banking,   securities  and
insurance);  technological changes,  acquisitions;  changes in consumer spending
and  savings  habits;  and the  success  of the  Company at  managing  the risks
involved in the foregoing.

         The Company  cautions that the foregoing  list of important  factors is
not  exclusive.  The Company does not  undertake  to update any  forward-looking
statement,  whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on
behalf of the Company.

Business of the Company

         The Company is a Delaware  corporation  organized  in March 1997 at the
direction of First Federal  Savings and Loan  Association of  Sistersville  (the
"Association")  to acquire all of the capital stock that the Association  issued
in its conversion from the mutual to stock form of ownership (the "Conversion").
On June 25, 1997,  the  Conversion  was completed and the  Association  became a
wholly  owned  subsidiary  of the Company and changed its name to First  Federal
Savings  Bank (the  "Bank").  The Company is a unitary  savings and loan holding
company which, under existing laws,  generally is not restricted in the types of
business  activities  in which it may engage  provided  that the Bank  retains a
specified  amount of its  assets in  housing-related  investments.  The  Company
conducts no significant business or operations of its own other than holding all
of the outstanding  stock of the Bank and investing the Company's portion of the
net proceeds obtained in the Conversion.

         The Bank is a federally  chartered stock savings bank  headquartered in
Sistersville,   West  Virginia.   The  Bank  is  subject  to   examination   and
comprehensive  regulation  by the Office of Thrift

                                       2

Supervision  ("OTS")  and its  deposits  are  federally  insured by the  Savings
Association  Insurance Fund  ("SAIF").  The Bank is a member of and owns capital
stock in the FHLB of  Pittsburgh,  which is one of the 12 regional  banks in the
FHLB System.  Unless otherwise stated, the term "Bank" refers to both the Bank's
and Company's activities on a consolidated basis.

         The Bank  operates a  traditional  savings  bank  business,  attracting
deposit accounts from the general public and using those deposits, together with
other funds, primarily to originate and invest in loans secured by single-family
residential real estate.

Competition

         The Bank is one of many financial  institutions serving its market area
which consists of Tyler,  Pleasants,  Wetzel and Wood Counties in West Virginia.
The  competition  for  deposit  products  comes  from  other  insured  financial
institutions such as commercial banks, thrift  institutions,  credit unions, and
multi-state  regional banks in the Bank's market area. Deposit  competition also
includes a number of  insurance  products  sold by local  agents and  investment
products  such as mutual funds and other  securities  sold by local and regional
brokers. Loan competition varies depending upon market conditions and comes from
other  insured  financial   institutions   such  as  commercial  banks,   thrift
institutions, credit unions, multi-state regional banks, and mortgage bankers.

activity  consists  of  the  origination  of  one-  to  four-family   fixed-rate
residential  mortgage  loans secured by property  located in the Bank's  primary
market areas. The Bank also originates  construction  permanent loans on one- to
four-family  residences.  The Bank generally  originates  owner-occupied one- to
four-family residential mortgage loans in amounts up to 80% of the lesser of the
appraised  value or selling price of the mortgaged  property  without  requiring
mortgage  insurance.  The Bank may  originate a mortgage loan in an amount up to
90% of the  lesser  of the  appraised  value or  selling  price  of a  mortgaged
property,  however,  mortgage  insurance is required for the amount in excess of
80% of such value. The Bank generally  retains all of the mortgage loans that it
originates.  Fixed-rate loans can have maturities of up to 30 years depending on
the terms of the loan.

         Consumer  Loans.  The Bank offers  consumer loans in order to provide a
wider range of financial services to its customers. Federal savings associations
are  permitted to make secured and unsecured  consumer  loans up to 35% of their
assets. In addition,  savings  associations have lending authority above the 35%
limitation for certain consumer loans,  such as home  improvement,  credit card,
education,  automobile,  and savings account or passbook loans. Secured consumer
loans  are  made at an  interest  rate  that is 2% above  the  rate  paid on the
underlying deposit account.  Consumer and other loans totalled $817,000, or 3.3%
of the Bank's  total  loans,  of which  loans  secured by  automobiles  totalled
$699,000,  or 2.8% of the  Bank's  total  loans  at  March  31,  1999.  The Bank
originates  automobile loans with terms of up to six years for both new and used
automobiles. Most of these automobile loans are originated directly by the Bank.

         Commercial Loans. The Bank had three commercial loan  participations as
of March 31,  1999,  totalling  $269,000.  These loans were made to a local fire
department  and a  local  hospital  for  working  capital  purposes  and a local
municipality for a commercial line of credit.

         Construction  Lending.  The Bank makes construction loans primarily for
the construction of single-family  dwellings.  The Bank will permit  owner-built
construction loans. The aggregate outstanding balance of such loans on March 31,
1999, was $119,000,  representing .5% of the Bank's total loan portfolio. All of
these loans were made to persons who are constructing properties for the purpose
of   occupying   them.   Loans   made  to   individual   property   owners   are
"construction-permanent"  loans  which  generally  provide  for the  payment  of
interest only during a construction  period,  after which the loans convert to a
permanent loan at original contractual rates.

         Loan Underwriting Risks. While consumer or other loans provide benefits
to the Bank's asset/liability management program by reducing the Bank's exposure
to interest rate changes,  due to their generally  shorter terms,  and producing
higher  yields,  such  loans may  entail  significant  additional  credit  risks
compared to  owner-occupied  residential  mortgage  lending.  However,  the Bank
believes that the higher yields and shorter  terms  compensate  the Bank for the
increased credit risk associated with such loans.

         In addition, due to the type and nature of the collateral, and, in some
cases the absence of collateral, consumer lending generally involves more credit
risk  when  compared  with one- to  four-family  residential  lending.  Consumer
lending  collections  are  typically  dependent  on  the  borrower's  continuing
financial  stability,  and thus, are more likely to be adversely effected by job
loss, divorce,  illness, and personal bankruptcy. In most cases, any repossessed
collateral for a defaulted  consumer loan will not provide an adequate source of
repayment of the outstanding loan balance.

         Construction  lending is generally considered to involve a higher level
of credit risk than one- to  four-family  residential  lending since the risk of
loss on construction loans is dependent largely upon the accuracy of the initial
estimate of the individual  property's  value upon completion of the project and
the estimated  cost  (including  interest) of the project.  If the cost estimate
proves to be  inaccurate,  the Bank may be required to advance  funds beyond the
amount originally committed to permit completion of the project.

         Loan Approval  Authority  and  Underwriting.  The Bank has  established
various  lending  limits for its officers and  maintains a Loan  Committee.  All
mortgage loan  applications are reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors,
which meets twice per month.  The Loan Committee may approve  mortgage loans but
such action must be ratified at a subsequent  Board  meeting.  The President and
Vice  President of the Bank each have the authority to approve all  applications
for consumer  loans up to $25,000 for non-real  estate  secured  loans and up to
$2,000 for unsecured loans.

         Loan Commitments.  At March 31, 1999, the Bank had $467,000 outstanding
commitments  to originate  loans and $343,000 in  undisbursed  funds  related to
construction  loans.  Management  believes that less than 1% of loan commitments
expire.

         Loans to One  Borrower.  Regulations  limit  loans to one  borrower  or
affiliated  group of borrowers in an amount equal to 15% of  unimpaired  capital
and  unimpaired  surplus of the Bank.  The Bank is  authorized  to lend up to an
additional 10% of unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus if the loan is fully
secured by readily marketable collateral.  At March 31, 1999, the Bank's lending
limit for loans to one borrower was approximately $1.2 million.

         At March 31,  1999,  the largest  loan of the Bank was a $267,000  loan
that was secured by the borrower's residence.

Non-Performing and Problem Assets

         Loan  Delinquencies.  Loans are  reviewed  on a  monthly  basis and are
placed  on  non-accrual  status  when  considered   doubtful  of  collection  by
management.  Generally,  loans  past  due 90 days or  more  as to  principal  or
interest are placed on non-accrual  status.  Interest  accrued and unpaid at the
time a loan is placed on non-accrual  status is charged against interest income.
Subsequent cash payments are generally applied to interest income unless, in the
opinion of management,  the collection of principal and interest is doubtful. In
those cases,  subsequent  cash payments would be applied to principal.  At March
31,  1999,  nonaccrual  loans and loans past due greater  than 90 days  totalled
$2,000 or 0.01% of total assets.

Non-performing Assets

         The following table sets forth information regarding non-accrual loans,
real estate owned,  and certain other  repossessed  assets and loans.  As of the
dates   indicated,   the  Bank  had  no  loans   categorized  as  troubled  debt
restructuring within the meaning of SFAS 15.

         Interest income that would have been recorded on loans accounted for on
a non-accrual basis under the original terms of such loans was $-0- for the year
ended March 31, 1999, and $-0- was collected and included in the Bank's interest
income from non-accrual loans for the year ended March 31, 1999.

Classified Assets

         OTS Regulations provided for a classification system for problem assets
of insured institutions.  Under this classification  system,  probable assets of
insured institutions are classified as "substandard,"  "doubtful," or "loss." An
asset is considered substandard if it is inadvertently  protected by the current
equity and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral  pledged, if any.
Substandard  assets include those  characterized  by the "distinct  possibility"
that the insured  institution  will sustain "some loss" if the  deficiencies are
not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in
those  classified  as  substandard,  with  the  added  characteristics  that the
weaknesses  present make  "collection  or  liquidation in full," on the basis of
currently  existing facts,  conditions,  and values,  "highly  questionable  and
improbable." Assets classified as loss are those considered  "uncollectible" and
of such little value that their  continuance as assets without the establishment
of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.  Assets may be designated  "special
mention" because a weakness that does not currently  warrant  classification  in
one of the aforementioned categories.

         When  an  insured  institution  classifies  problem  assets  as  either
substandard or doubtful,  it may establish general allowances for loan losses in
an amount  deemed  prudent by  management.  General  allowances  represent  loss
allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated
with lending activities,  but which, unlike specific  allowances,  have not been
allocated to particular problem assets. When an insured  institution  classifies
problem assets as loss, it is required either to establish a specific  allowance
for  losses  equal to 100% of that  portion  of the asset and the  amount of its
valuation  allowances  is  subject  to  review  by the OTS,  which may order the
establishment of additional  general or specific loss  allowances.  A portion of
general loss  allowances  established to cover possible losses related to assets
classified  as  substandard  or  doubtful  may be  included  in  determining  an
institutions'  regulatory capital,  while specific valuation allowances for loan
losses generally do not qualify as regulatory capital.

         On the basis of management's  review of its assets,  at March 31, 1999,
the Bank had classified  $2,000 of assets as substandard,  no assets as doubtful
nor as loss, and $15,000 assets as special mention.

Allocation of the Allowance for Loan Losses

         The following table sets forth the allocation of the allowance for loan
losses by  category  as  prepared  by the Bank.  In  management's  opinion,  the
allocation  has,  at best,  a  limited  utility.  It is  based  on  management's
assessment  as of a given point in time of the risk  characteristics  of each of
the component parts of the total loan portfolio and is subject to changes as and
when the risk factors of each such component part change.  The allocation is not
indicative of either the specific amounts or the loan categories in which future
charge-offs may be taken,  nor should it be taken as an indicator of future loss
trends. In addition,  by presenting the allocation,  management does not mean to
imply that the  allocation  is exact or that the  allowance  has been  precisely
determined from the allocation. The allocation of the allowance to each category
is not necessarily indicative of future loss in any particular category and does
not restrict the use of the allowance to absorb losses in any category.

Investment Activities

         Investment  Securities.  The Bank is required under federal regulations
to maintain a minimum amount of liquid assets which may be invested in specified
short term  securities and certain other  investments.  The Bank  classifies its
investments as securities  available for sale or investments  securities held to
maturity in accordance with SFAS No. 115.

         The Bank's securities available for sale and investment securities held
to  maturity  portfolios  at March 31, 1999 did not  contain  securities  of any
issuer  with an  aggregate  book  value in excess of 10% of the  Bank's  equity,
excluding  those issued by the United States  Government or its agencies.  As of
March 31, 1999,  the Bank's  investment  portfolio  was comprised of FHLB stock,
FHLMC  stock,   municipal   securities,   U.S.  federal  agency  securities  and
mortgage-backed securities with market value of $5.3 million.

         Mortgage-Backed  Securities. To supplement lending activities, the Bank
has  invested  in  residential   mortgage-backed   securities.   Mortgage-backed
securities can serve as collateral for borrowings and, through repayments,  as a
source  of  liquidity.  Mortgage-backed  securities  represent  a  participation
interest in a pool of  single-family  or other type of mortgages,  the principal
and interest payments on which are passed from the mortgage originators, through
intermediaries (generally  quasi-governmental  agencies) that pool and repackage
the participation interests in the form of securities,  to investors such as the
Bank. These  quasi-governmental  agencies guarantee the payment of principal and
interest to investors.

         The  Bank's  mortgage-backed  securities  were  classified  as  held to
maturity  and  available  for sale at March  31,  1999,  and were  issued by the
Government  National  Mortgage  Bank  ("GNMA")  and Federal  Home Loan  Mortgage
Corporation   ("FHLMC"),   representing   participating   interests   in  direct
pass-through  pools of long-term  mortgage loans  originated and serviced by the
issuers of the  securities.  Expected  maturities  will differ from  contractual
maturities due to scheduled  repayments and because borrowers may have the right
to call or prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties.

         At March 31,  1999,  the Bank held  mortgage-backed  securities  in its
investment  securities  held to maturity  portfolio  with an  amortized  cost of
$351,000 and in its  available  for sale  portfolio  with an  amortized  cost of
$459,000. The average yield on mortgage-backed securities at March 31, 1999, was
6.28%.

Sources of Funds

         General.  Deposits are the major source of the Bank's funds for lending
and other investment purposes. The Bank also derives funds from the amortization
and  prepayment  of  loans,  sales,  maturities,  and calls of  securities,  and
operations.  Scheduled loan principal  repayments are a relatively stable source
of  funds,   while  deposit  inflows  and  outflows  and  loan  prepayments  are
significantly influenced by general interest rates and market conditions.

         Deposits.  Consumer and commercial  deposits are attracted  principally
from within the Bank's  primary market areas through the offering of a selection
of deposit instruments  including savings accounts,  NOW accounts,  money market
accounts, and time deposits or certificate of deposit accounts.

Borrowings

         The Bank  obtained an advance from the FHLB of Pittsburgh to supplement
its supply of lendable funds. The advance from the FHLB of Pittsburgh is secured
by a pledge of the Bank's  various  assets in the amount of $20.6  million.  The
borrowing  is a 5.15% fixed  interest  obligation  with an optional  change to a
variable  interest  rate at August 21, 1999.  The advance  matures on August 31,
2008, while interest  payments are payable monthly on the outstanding  principal
balance. At March 31, 1999, the Bank had $1.0 million in borrowings  outstanding
from the FHLB of Pittsburgh.  The Bank had no FHLB advances  outstanding  during
the year ended March 31, 1998.

Personnel

         At  March  31,  1999,  the  Bank had 9  full-time  and  four  part-time
employees.  None  of  the  Bank's  employees  are  represented  by a  collective
bargaining  group. The Bank believes that its relationship with its employees is
good.

Regulation

         Set  forth  below is a brief  description  of laws  that  relate to the
regulation of the Bank and the Company.  The  description is not complete and is
qualified in its entirety by reference to applicable laws and regulations.

Company Regulation

         General.  The Company is required to register and file reports with the
OTS and is subject to regulation and  examination  by the OTS. In addition,  the
OTS has enforcement  authority over the Company and its non-savings  association
subsidiaries,  should  such  subsidiaries  be formed,  which  permits the OTS to
restrict or prohibit  activities that are determined to be a serious risk to the
Bank. This regulation and oversight is intended  primarily for the protection of
the  depositors  of the  Bank and not for the  benefit  of  stockholders  of the
Company.

         Qualified  Thrift Lender  ("QTL")  Test. As a unitary  savings and loan
holding company, the Company generally is not subject to activity  restrictions,
provided the Bank  satisfies  the QTL test. If the Company  acquired  control of
another savings institution as a separate subsidiary,  it would lose the ability
to diversity its operations into nonbanking  related activities unless the other
savings institutions each also qualify as a QTL or were acquired in a supervised
acquisition. See "Bank Regulation - Qualified Thrift Lender Test."


                                       13
<PAGE>



         Restrictions or Acquisitions. The Company must obtain approval from the
OTS before acquiring control of any other SAIF-insured savings  institution.  No
person may acquire control of a federally  insured savings  institution  without
providing  at least 60 days  written  notice  to the OTS and  giving  the OTS an
opportunity to disapprove the proposed acquisition.

Bank Regulation

         General. As a federally  chartered,  SAIF-insured  savings association,
the Bank is subject to extensive  regulation by the OTS and the Federal  Deposit
Insurance  Corporation (the "FDIC").  Lending  activities and other  investments
must  comply  with  various   federal  and  state   statutory   and   regulatory
requirements.   The  Bank  is  also  subject  to  certain  reserve  requirements
promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal  Reserve  System  ("Federal
Reserve System").

         Insurance of Deposit Accounts.  The Bank's deposit accounts are insured
by the SAIF to a maximum of $100,000 for each insured  member (as defined by law
and  regulation).  Insurance  of deposits may be  terminated  by the FDIC upon a
finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound  practices,  is in
an unsafe or unsound  condition  to continue  operations,  or has  violated  any
applicable law, regulation,  rule, order or condition imposed by the FDIC or the
institution's primary regulator.

         As a member of the SAIF,  the Bank pays an insurance  premium to on the
FDIC. The FDIC also maintains  another  insurance  fund, the Bank Insurance Fund
("BIF"), which primarily insures commercial bank deposits.

         The  deposit  insurance  assessment  for most SAIF  members is .064% of
deposits on an annual  basis  through the end of 1999.  During this same period,
BIF  members  will be  assessed  approximately  .013% of  deposits.  After 1999,
assessments  for BIF and SAIF members  should be the same.  It is expected  that
these continuing assessments for both SAIF and BIF members will be used to repay
outstanding Financing Corporation bond obligations.

         Regulatory  Capital  Requirements.   OTS  capital  regulations  require
savings institutions to meet three capital standards: (1) tangible capital equal
to 1.5% of total adjusted  assets,  (2) a leverage ratio (core capital) equal to
at least 3% of total adjusted assets,  and (3) risk-based capital equal to 8% of
total  risk-weighted  assets.  In  addition,  the OTS prompt  corrective  action
regulation provides that a savings institution that has a leverage capital ratio
of less than 4% (3% for institutions  receiving the highest  examination rating)
will  be  deemed  to  be  "undercapitalized"  and  may  be  subject  to  certain
restrictions.

         Dividend  and  Other  Capital  Distribution   Limitations.   A  savings
association that is a subsidiary of a savings and loan holding company,  such as
the Bank,  must file an  application  or a notice  with the OTS at least 30 days
before  making  a  capital  distribution,   including  cash  dividends.  Savings
associations  are not required to file an  application  for permission to make a
capital  distribution if the following conditions are met: (1) they are eligible
for expedited treatment under OTS regulations,  (2) they would remain adequately
capitalized   after  the   distribution,   (3)  the  annual  amount  of  capital
distribution  does not exceed net income for that year to date added to retained
net income for the two preceding years, and (4) the capital  distribution  would
not violate any  agreements  between OTS and the savings  association or any OTS
regulations. Any other distribution would require a notice to the OTS.


                                       14
<PAGE>



         In addition,  the OTS could prohibit a proposed capital distribution by
any  institution,  which would otherwise be permitted by the regulation,  if the
OTS  determines  that the  distribution  would  constitute  an unsafe or unsound
practice.

         A federal  savings  institution  is  prohibited  from  making a capital
distribution if, after making the distribution, the savings institution would be
unable to meet any one of its minimum regulatory capital requirements.  Further,
a federal  savings  institution  cannot  distribute  regulatory  capital that is
needed for its liquidation account.

         Qualified  Thrift  Lender  Test.  Savings   institutions  must  meet  a
qualified thrift lender ("QTL") test. If the Bank maintains an appropriate level
of qualified thrift investments  ("QTIs") (primarily  residential  mortgages and
related  investments,   including  certain   mortgage-related   securities)  and
otherwise  qualifies  as a  QTL,  it  will  continue  to  enjoy  full  borrowing
privileges from the FHLB of Pittsburgh.  The required  percentage of QTIs is 65%
of portfolio  assets (defined as all assets minus goodwill and other  intangible
assets,  property used by the  institution in conducting its business and liquid
assets in an amount not exceeding  20% of total  assets).  In addition,  savings
associations may include shares of stock of the FHLBs,  FNMA, and FHLMC as QTIs.
Compliance  with the QTL test is  determined  on a monthly  basis in nine out of
every 12 months.  As of March 31, 1999, the Bank was in compliance  with its QTL
requirement.

         Federal  Reserve  System.  The  Federal  Reserve  System  requires  all
depository  institutions to maintain  non-interest bearing reserves at specified
levels against their transaction accounts (primarily checking, NOW and Super NOW
checking  accounts) and non-personal time deposits.  The balances  maintained to
meet the reserve  requirements imposed by the Federal Reserve System may be used
to satisfy the liquidity  requirements that are imposed by the OTS. At March 31,
1999, the Bank was in compliance with these Federal Reserve Board requirements.

Item 2.  Description of Property
- --------------------------------

(a)      Properties.

         Currently,  the Company  does not own real  property  but  utilizes the

Report to Shareholders:

I am pleased to provide to you the  Sistersville  Bancorp,  Inc. (the "Company")
1999 Annual Report.  The fiscal year which ended March 31, 1999 marks the end of
the Company's  second  reporting  year as a public  company,  and the first year
covering a full twelve month period.

During the year, to enhance  shareholder  value, the Company  repurchased 61,264
shares of its common  stock in the open  market.  Combined  with the  repurchase
completed in March 1998, a total of 94,335  shares have been  repurchased  since
the mutual to stock  conversion in June 1997. The repurchases have increased the
book value of the stock to $17.26 per share.

A  total  of  $202,016.92  was  paid  to our  shareholders  in the  form of cash
dividends.  More than half of the total was  considered  a return of capital and
therefore was nontaxable to shareholders.

I am happy to report that First Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank"), the Company's
subsidiary,  opened a new drive through in July. The drive through has proven to
be quite  popular  with  customers  due to the  convenience  it provides and its
extended hours of operation.

Efforts have been ongoing  throughout the year to assure a smooth transition for
the date  changeover  to the Year  2000.  Most of our  system  testing  has been
completed  and the  Company  and  the  Bank  will  both be  ready  for the  date
changeover well in advance of December 31, 1999.

I look  forward to the  challenges  of  enhancing  shareholder  value during the
upcoming  year.  I commend  the  dedication  and  efforts of our  employees  and
directors,  and  express  my  appreciation  for  the  continued  support  of our
customers and shareholders.

Sincerely,


/s/Stanley M. Kiser

Corporate Profile

Sistersville  Bancorp,  Inc. (the "Company") is a Delaware corporation organized
in March,  1997, at the direction of First Federal Savings and Loan  Association
of Sistersville (the "Association") to acquire all of the capital stock that the
Association  issued in its conversion from the mutual to stock form of ownership
(the  "Conversion").  On June 25, 1997,  the  Conversion  was  completed and the
Association became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and changed its name
to First Federal Savings Bank (the "Bank"). The Company is a unitary savings and
loan holding company which, under existing laws,  generally is not restricted in
the types of business  activities in which it may engage  provided that the Bank
retains a specified  amount of its assets in  housing-related  investments.  The
Company  conducts no  significant  business or  operations of its own other than
holding all of the  outstanding  stock of the Bank and  investing  the Company's
portion of the net proceeds obtained in the Conversion.

The  Bank  is  a  federally   chartered  stock  savings  bank  headquartered  in
Sistersville,   West  Virginia.   The  Bank  is  subject  to   examination   and
comprehensive  regulation  by the Office of Thrift  Supervision  ("OTS") and its
deposits  are  federally  insured  by the  Savings  Association  Insurance  Fund
("SAIF").  The  Bank is a  member  of and  owns  capital  stock  in the  FHLB of
Pittsburgh,  which is one of the 12 regional  banks in the FHLB  system.  Unless
otherwise  stated,  the term  "Bank"  refers to both the  Bank's  and  Company's
activities on a consolidated basis.

The Bank  operates a  traditional  savings  bank  business,  attracting  deposit
accounts from the general public and using those  deposits,  together with other
funds,  primarily  to  originate  and invest in loans  secured by  single-family
residential real estate.

SVBC declared a semi-annual dividend of $.16 per share in December,  1997 and in
June,  1998.  A  semi-annual  dividend  per share of $.17 was also  declared  in
December,  1998. The number of  shareholders of record of common stock as of the
record date of May 28, 1999,  was  approximately  200. This does not reflect the
number of persons or entities who held stock in nominee or "street" name through
various  brokerage  firms. At May 28, 1999,  there were 567,093 shares of common
stock  outstanding.  The Company's  ability to pay dividends to  stockholders is
primarily  dependent  upon the dividends it receives from the Bank. The Bank may
not  declare or pay a cash  dividend  on any of its stock if the effect  thereof
would  cause the Bank's  regulatory  capital to be reduced  below (1) the amount
required  for  the  liquidation  account  established  in  connection  with  the
Conversion, or (2) the regulatory capital requirements imposed by the OTS.

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


GENERAL

The Company was recently formed,  therefore, its results from operations consist
primarily of interest income from the investing of funds from proceeds generated
by the sale of common  stock and  expense  incurred  in the  maintaining  of the
investment  portfolio.  The Bank's results of operations are primarily dependent
on its net interest income,  which is the difference between the interest income
earned on its assets, primarily loans and investments,  and the interest expense
on its  liabilities,  primarily  deposits.  Net interest  income may be affected
significantly  by general  economic and  competitive  conditions and policies of
regulatory  agencies,  particularly those with respect to market interest rates.
The  results of  operations  are also  influenced  by the level of  non-interest
expense, such as employee benefits and other income, loan-related fees, and fees
on deposit-related services.

The Bank primarily originates  fixed-rate loans with terms of up to 30 years and
attempts  to  maintain  sufficient  capital  and other  liquid  assets to manage
interest rate risk.


ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

The Bank's net interest income is sensitive to changes in interest rates, as the
rates paid on  interest-bearing  liabilities  generally  change  faster than the
rates earned on  interest-earning  assets. As a result, net interest income will
frequently  decline in periods of rising  interest rates and increase in periods
of decreasing interest rates.

To mitigate the impact of changing  interest  rates on its net interest  income,
the Bank manages its interest  rate  sensitivity  and  asset/liability  products
through  two  committees  of the  Board,  the Loan  Committee  and the  Interest
Committee. The committees meet, as necessary, to determine the rates of interest
for loans and deposits. Rates on deposits are primarily based on the Bank's need
for funds and on a review of rates offered by other  financial  institutions  in
the Bank's market  areas.  Interest  rates on loans are  primarily  based on the
interest  rates offered by other  financial  institutions  in the Bank's primary
market areas as well as the Bank's cost of funds.

The  committees  manage the interest  rate  sensitivity  of the Bank through the
determination  and  adjustment  of   asset/liability   composition  and  pricing
strategies.  The  committees  then monitor the impact of interest  rate risk and
earnings  consequences  of such  strategies  for  consistency  with  the  Bank's
liquidity needs, growth, and capital adequacy.  The Bank's principal strategy is
to manage interest rate  sensitivity of its interest earning assets and interest
bearing liabilities by maintaining sufficient capital and other liquid assets in
the event of an increase in interest rate risk, typically because of an increase
in market interest rates.

NET PORTFOLIO VALUE

The Bank  computes  amounts  by which  the net  present  value of cash flow from
assets,  liabilities  and off balance sheet items ("the net portfolio  value" or
"NPV")  would  change  in the  event of a range of  assumed  changes  in  market
interest rates.  These  computations  estimate the effect on the Bank's NPV from
instantaneous  and  permanent 1% to 3% (100 to 300 basis  points)  increases and
decreases in market interest rates.  Based upon OTS  assumptions,  the following
table presents the Bank's NPV at March 31, 1999.

(1)  The NPV ratio is  calculated  as the estimated NPV divided by the estimated
     NPV of assets.

(2)  Minimum  acceptable  NPV  ratio  limits  are  established  by the  Board of
     Directors of the Bank.


Certain  assumptions  utilized by the OTS in assessing the interest rate risk of
savings  institutions  were  employed in  preparing  the previous  table.  These
assumptions  relate to interest  rates,  loan  prepayment  rates,  deposit decay
rates,  and the market values of certain assets under the various  interest rate
scenarios.  It was also  assumed  that  delinquency  rates  will not change as a
result of changes in interest rates although there can be no assurance that this
will be the case. Even if interest rates change in the designated amounts, there
can be no assurance that the Bank's assets and liabilities  would perform as set
forth above.

AVERAGE BALANCE SHEET

The  following  table sets forth certain  information  relating to the Company's
average  balance sheet and reflects the average yield on assets and average cost
of liabilities for the periods indicated and the average yields earned and rates
paid.  Such yields and costs are  derived by dividing  income and expense by the
average  balance  of  assets  and  liabilities,  respectively,  for the  periods
presented. Average balances are derived from month-end balances. Management does
not believe that the use of month-end balances instead of daily average balances
has caused any material differences in the information presented

Comparison of Financial Condition

In connection  with the Conversion on June 25, 1997,  the Company  completed the
sale of  661,428  shares  (the  "Offering")  at $10 per share and  received  net
proceeds of  approximately  $5,665,000.  The Company  transferred  approximately
$3,097,000  of the net  proceeds  to the  Bank  for the  purchase  of all of the
capital  stock of the Bank.  In  addition,  $529,140  was  loaned to the  Bank's
Employee  Stock  Ownership  Plan  ("ESOP")  for the  purchase  of  shares in the
Offering.

The Company's total assets increased by approximately $453,000 to $32,188,000 at
March 31, 1999, from  $31,735,000 at March 31, 1998.  Cash and cash  equivalents
increased $308,000 to $1,874,000 at March 31, 1999, from $1,566,000 at March 31,
1998. This increase  represented the inflow of cash associated with Federal Home
Loan   Bank   advances,   depositors'   investment   of   funds,   maturity   of
available-for-sale   securities,  and  principal  collected  on  mortgage-backed
securities offset by the purchase of available-for-sale securities,  increase in
loan  production,  and purchase of shares for the Bank's  Restricted  Stock Plan
("RSP") and Treasury  shares.  Investment  securities  decreased  $655,000  from
$5,914,000 at March 31, 1998, to $5,259,000 at March 31, 1999. This decrease was
the result of $4.1 million in matured U.S.  Government and Agency securities and
$173,000 in principal  collected  on  mortgage-backed  securities  offset by the
purchase of $3.0 million in U.S. Agency and Municipal securities and purchase of
$515,000 in mortgage-backed  securities. Net loans receivable increased $673,000
from  $23,647,000  at March 31, 1998,  to  $24,320,000  at March 31,  1999.  The
increase  in  loans  was  attributable  to an  increase  in  one-to-four  family
residential mortgage loans. Such increases primarily reflect the economic health
of the  Bank's  market  area and the  competitive  pricing  of the  Bank's  loan
products.  Office  property and  equipment  increased  $109,000 from $378,000 at
March 31, 1998,  to $488,000 at March 31, 1999,  which was the direct  result of
the construction of a drive-thru facility at the Bank.

Total  liabilities  increased  $1,242,000 from  $21,154,000 at March 31, 1998 to
$22,396,000  at March 31,  1999.  The  increase  was the  result  of  $1,000,000
advanced  from the Federal  Home Loan Bank in order to fund future loan  growth.
Deposits   increased  by  $252,000  to  $20,848,000  at  March  31,  1999,  from
$20,596,000  at March 31,  1998 as a result  of the  relative  stability  of the
Bank's  deposit  account  interest  rates,  compared to a  reduction  in deposit
interest rates for alternative investment products available.

Stockholders'  equity  decreased  $790,000  to  $9,792,000  at March  31,  1999,
compared to $10,582,000 at March 31, 1998. The decrease was  attributable to the
purchase  of RSP shares and  Treasury  shares in the  amounts  of  $410,000  and
$798,000,  respectively,  offset by net income of $389,000, allocation of shares
in the ESOP  amounting to $88,000 and vesting of shares in the RSP in the amount
of $126,000. Stockholders' equity was also reduced by dividends of $185,000.

Comparison of the Results of  Operations  for the Years Ended March 31, 1999 and
1998

Net  Income.  Net  income  increased  by  $16,000,  or 4.2%,  from net income of
$373,000  for the year ended March 31,  1998,  to net income of $389,000 for the
same period in 1999.

Interest and Dividend Income. Interest and dividend income increased $14,000, or
 .6%, to $2,365,000 for the year ended March 31, 1999, compared to $2,351,000 for
the year ended March 31, 1998. The increase in interest and dividend  income was
due to an increase in taxable interest on loans of $73,000, or 3.8%, offset by a
decrease in interest  on  investments  of  $59,000,  or 14.8%.  The  increase in
interest on loans was due to an increase in the average balance of loans of $1.2
million  for the year ended  March 31,  1999 as  compared  to the same period in
1998,  offset by a decline  of 11 basis  points in  average  yield from 8.44% at
March 31,  1998 to 8.33% for the same period in 1998.  Interest  on  investments
decreased for the year ended March 31, 1999, as compared to March 31, 1998, as a
result of downward  fluctuations  in yields on  investment  securities  and by a
decrease in the average balance of investments of $664,000 from $7.2 million for
the year ended March 31, 1998 to $6.6 million for the year ended March 31, 1999.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $90,000, or 9.1%, from $986,000 for
the year ended March 31,  1998,  to $896,000  for same period  ended in 1999.  A
decrease  in the  average  balance of  interest-bearing  deposits of $838,000 to
$20.4  million from $21.2 million and a reduction in the cost of funds from 4.6%
for the year ended March 31, 1998,  as compared to 4.2% for the year ended March
31, 1999,  resulted in the decrease in interest expense on deposits of $122,000.
The  decrease in  interest on deposits  was offset by an increase in interest on
advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of $32,000.

Net Interest  Income.  Net interest  income  increased  $104,000,  or 7.6%, from
$1,364,000  for the year ended March 31, 1998, to $1,468,000 for the same period
ended in 1999.  The  increase  is  primarily  attributable  to a decrease in the
balance of  interest-bearing  deposits and an increase in the average balance of
loans  from the year  ended  March 31,  1998,  to the same  period  in 1999,  as
previously discussed.

Provision For Loan Losses.  The provision for loan losses  decreased $2,800 from
$6,200 for the year ended March 31,  1998,  to $3,400 for the same period  ended
March 31, 1999, based on management's  analysis of the reserve's  adequacy.  The
reserve for loan  losses was  $172,250 at March 31, 1999 as compared to $168,850
at March 31, 1998.

Noninterest  income.  Noninterest  income increased by $176,000 from $26,000 for
the year ended March 31,  1998,  to $202,000  for the year ended March 31, 1999.
The   increase   is   primarily   attributable   to  a  gain  on  the   sale  of
available-for-sale  securities  in the 1999  period  of  $168,000  which was not
present in the 1998  period.  The  remaining  portion of  noninterest  income is
comprised primarily of service charges on deposit accounts.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased by $254,000 from $801,000 for
the year ended March 31, 1998, to $1,055,000  for the same period ended in 1999.
Compensation and employee  benefits  increased by $223,000 from $440,000 for the
year ended March 31, 1998,  to $663,000  for the year ended March 31, 1999.  The
change is due to an increase in compensation  costs  associated with the RSP and
merit  base pay  increases  of  $142,000,  and by  special  one-time  retirement
agreements  executed  by  four  directors  resulting  in  a  pre-tax  charge  of
approximately  $94,000 in the year ended March 31, 1999, offset by a decrease in
directors fees of $20,000 due to the reduction in the number of directors  being
compensated . Under terms of the  agreements,  the four directors  accepting the
offer  relinquished  their  positions as directors on July 2, 1998.  The RSP was
initiated in July, 1998, and resulted in stock awarded to employees being earned
at a rate of  one-fifth  per year at July 16,  1998,  through  2002.  Franchise,
payroll,  and other taxes  increased  by $9,000 from  $58,000 for the year ended
March 31, 1998, to $67,000 for the year ended March 31, 1999.  The change is the
result of increased payroll taxes on merit base pay increases and on RSP shares
awarded to employees for the year ended March 31, 1999. Other expenses increased
by $15,000 to $70,000
                                      -11-

<PAGE>



for the year ended March 31, 1999, from $55,000 for the same period in 1998. The
increase is  attributable  to an increase in  stationery  and printing  expenses
related  to  costs   associated  with  public  stock  ownership  and  regulatory
requirements and an increase in expenses related to the Year 2000 risk.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense increased by $14,000 from $209,000 for the year
ended  March 31,  1998,  to  $223,000  for the year ended  March 31,  1999.  The
increase is due to an increase in pre-tax income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Bank's sources of funds are deposits,  amortization  and prepayment of loans
and mortgage-backed  securities,  maturities of investment securities, and funds
provided from  operations.  While  scheduled  loan  repayments  are a relatively
predictable  source of funds,  deposit  flows and loan  prepayments  are greatly
influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions, and competition.  The
Bank uses its sources of funds to fund  existing and future  existing and future
loan  commitments,  to fund maturing  certificates of deposit and demand deposit
withdrawals,  to invest in other interest-earning assets, to maintain liquidity,
and to meet operating expenses.

Net cash  provided by  operating  activities  for the year ended March 31, 1999,
totaled $463,000,  a decrease of $169,000 from $632,000 for the year ended March
31, 1998.  The change was primarily  attributable  to net income of $389,000 for
the year ended March 31, 1999, adjusted by a $168,000 gain on available-for-sale
securities and the amortization of the ESOP and RSP in the amount of $88,000 and
$126,000, respectively.

Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended March 31, 1999, totaled
$14,000,  a decrease of $4,782,000  from $4,796,000 for the year ended March 31,
1998. The decrease in cash used for investing  activities was attributable to an
increase of $4,411,000  provided by maturities of investments  and repayments on
mortgage-backed  securities.  This  change  was  offset  by  $3,595,000  used to
purchase investment securities,  $676,000 in net loan originations, and $153,000
used in purchases of office properties and equipment.

Net cash used in financing activities for 1999 totaled $141,000,  as compared to
net cash provided by financing activities of $3,935,000 for the 1998 period. The
decrease of $4,076,000  was the result of the Federal Home Loan Bank advances in
the amount of $1 million offset by the purchase of Treasury shares in the amount
of $798,000, and the purchase of RSP shares in the amount of $410,000.

Liquidity may be adversely  affected by unexpected  deposit outflows,  excessive
interest rates paid by competitors,  adverse  publicity  relating to the savings
and loan industry, and similar matters.  Management monitors projected liquidity
needs and determines the level desired based, in part, on the Bank's commitments
to make loans and  management's  assessment  of the Bank's  ability to  generate
funds.

Certificates  of deposit  scheduled  to mature  during the year ended  March 31,
1999,  total  $5,500,000.  The Bank may renew  these  certificates,  attract new
replacement  deposits  or replace  such funds with  borrowed  funds.  Management
believes,  based  on past  experience,  that the Bank  will  retain  much of the
deposits or replace them with new deposits.

Under  federal  regulations,  the  Bank  is  required  to meet  certain  minimum
regulatory   capital   guidelines.   The  Bank  was  in  compliance  with  these
requirements  at  March  31,  1999.  See  Note 7 of the  Notes  to  Consolidated
Financial Statements.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The  consolidated  financial  statements and the  accompanying  notes  presented
elsewhere in this  document,  have been  prepared in accordance  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles,  which  require the  measurement  of financial
position  and  operating   results  in  terms  of  historical   dollars  without
considering the change in the relative  purchasing  power of money over time and
due to inflation.  Unlike industrial companies,  virtually all of the assets and
liabilities  of a financial  institution  are  monetary in nature.  As a result,
interest  rates  have a more  significant  impact on a  financial  institution's
performance  than the effects of general levels of inflation.  Interest rates do
not  necessarily  move in the direction or with the same magnitude as the prices
of goods and services.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 1997,  the FASB  issued  Statement  No.  130,  "Reporting  Comprehensive
Income."  Statement  No. 130 is  effective  for  fiscal  years  beginning  after
December 15, 1997.  This  statement  establishes  standards  for  reporting  and
presentation  of  comprehensive  income and its components  (revenue,  expenses,
gains,  losses)  in a full  set of  general  purpose  financial  statements.  It
requires  that all items that are  required to be  recognized  under  accounting
standards  as  components  of  comprehensive  income be  reported in a financial
statement  that is  presented  with  the  same  prominence  as  other  financial
statements.  Statement  No. 130 requires that  companies  (i) classify  items of
other  comprehensive  income by their nature in a financial  statement  and (ii)
display the accumulated  balance of other  comprehensive  income separately from
retained  earnings and additional  paid-in  capital in the equity section of the
statement of financial  condition.  Reclassification of financial statements for
earlier  periods  provided for  comprehensive  purpose is required.  The Company
current holds securities classified as available-for-sale.  Under the provisions
of Statement No. 130,  unrealized  gains and losses on securities  classified as
available-for-sale are a component of comprehensive income.

In June  1998,  the  FASB  issued  SFAS  No.  133,  "Accounting  for  Derivative
Instruments  and  Hedging  Activities."  SFAS No. 133  provides  accounting  and
reporting  standards for derivatives  instruments,  including certain derivative
instruments  embedded in other contracts,  by requiring the recognition of those
items as assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position,  recorded
at fair value.  SFAS No. 133  precludes a  held-to-maturity  security from being
designated as a hedge item.  However, at the date of initial application of SFAS
No. 133, an entity is permitted to transfer any  held-to-maturity  security into
the  available-for-sale  or trading  categories.  The unrealized holding gain or
loss on such  transferred  securities  shall  be  reported  consistent  with the
requirements  of SFAS No. 115,  "Accounting  for Certain  Investment in Debt and
Equity  Securities."  Such transfers do not raise an issue regarding an entity's
intent to hold other debt  securities  to maturity  in the future.  SFAS No. 133
applies  prospectively for all fiscal quarters of all years beginning after June
15, 1999. Earlier adoption is permitted for any fiscal quarter that begins after
the issue date of SFAS No. 133. Management does not believe the adoption of SFAS
No. 133 will have a material impact on the Company.

Year 2000

Rapid and accurate data processing is essential to the Bank's  operations.  Many
computer  programs  that can only  distinguish  the final two digits of the year
entered (a common  programming  practice in earlier  years) are expected to read
entries for the Year 2000 as the year 1900 or as zero and incorrectly attempt to
compute  payment,  interest,  delinquency,  and  other  data.  The Bank has been
evaluating both information  technology  (computer systems) and  non-information
technology  systems (e.g.,  vault timers and electronic  door lock).  Based upon
such evaluations,  management has determined that the Bank has Year 2000 risk in
three areas: (1) Bank's own computers (2) Computers of others used by the Bank's
borrowers,  and  (3)  Computers  of  others  who  provide  the  Bank  with  data
processing.

Bank's Own Computers.  The Bank has upgraded its computer  system to address the
Year 2000 risk.  The Bank does not expect to have material  additional  costs to
address this risk. The Bank expects,  although there is no assurance, to be Year
2000  compliant  in this risk area by June 30, 1999.  The upgrade  costs did not
have a material  impact on the  Company's  consolidated  financial  position  or
results of operations.

                                      -13-

<PAGE>




Computers of Others Used by the Bank's Borrowers. The Bank has evaluated most of
its borrowers and does not believe the Year 2000 problem should, on an aggregate
basis, impact their ability to make payments to the Bank. The Bank believes that
most of its residential  borrowers are not dependent on their home computers for
income and that none of their commercial borrowers are so large that a Year 2000
problem  would  render them unable to collect  revenue or rent and, in turn,  be
unable to continue to make loan  payments to the Bank.  The Bank does not expect
any material  costs to address  this risk area and  believes  they are Year 2000
compliant in this risk area.

Computers  of Others  Who  Provide  the Bank with Data  Processing.  Should  the
computers of third party data  processing  providers  prove to be  non-compliant
with the Year  2000,  the  Bank  would  likely  experience  significant  delays,
mistakes,  or  failures.  These  delays,  mistakes,  or  failures  could  have a
significant  impact on the Bank's financial  condition and results of operation.
The  third  party  service  bureau  which  provides  most  of  the  Bank's  data
processing,  has advised the Bank that it expects to be fully  compliant  before
the Year 2000.  Testing of the data  processing  provided by this service bureau
was completed in February,  1999,  whereby various Year 2000 date scenarios were
input, and  transactional  processing was completed  satisfactorily.  Other data
processing providers, used by the Bank to a much lesser extent, have advised the
Bank that Year 2000 testing and compliance will be completed by June 30, 1999.

Contingency  Plan. The Bank is monitoring its service bureau to evaluate whether
the  bureau's  data  processing  system  will  fail and is being  provided  with
periodic updates on the status of testing and upgrades being made by the service
bureau.  If the Bank service  bureau  fails,  the Bank will attempt to locate an
alternative  service  bureau  that  is  Year  2000  compliant.  If the  Bank  is
unsuccessful,  the Bank will  calculate  loan and deposit  balances and interest
using manual ledgers. If this labor intensive approach is necessary,  management
and employees will become much less efficient.  However,  the Bank believes that
it would be able to  operate in this  manner  indefinitely,  until its  existing
service bureau, or their  replacement,  is able to again provide data processing
services.  If very few financial  institution  service bureaus were operating in
the Year 2000, the Bank's replacement  costs,  assuming the Bank could negotiate
an agreement, could be material.

Board of Directors
Sistersville Bancorp, Inc.

We have audited the  accompanying  consolidated  balance sheets of  Sistersville
Bancorp,  Inc.  as of March 31,  1999 and  1998,  and the  related  consolidated
statements of income,  changes in shareholders'  equity, and cash flows for each
of the years then ended.  These financial  statements are the  responsibility of
the Company's  management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the  accounting  principles  used and  significant  estimates  made by
management,  as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated  financial statements referred to above present
fairly,  in all  material  respects,  the  financial  position  of  Sistersville
Bancorp,  Inc. at March 31, 1999 and 1998, and the  consolidated  results of its
operations,  changes  in  shareholders'  equity,  and cash flows for each of the
years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                             MARCH 31, 1999 AND 1998


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      Sistersville  Bancorp,  Inc. (the "Company") was organized in March, 1997,
      as a State of Delaware chartered corporation. The Company acquired 100% of
      the common  stock of First  Federal  Savings  Bank (the  "Bank")  upon the
      conversion of First Federal  Savings and Loan  Association of Sistersville
      (the "Association") from a federally-chartered  mutual savings and loan to
      a federally-  chartered  stock savings bank in June,  1997.  The operating
      results of the Company depend primarily upon the operating  results of the
      Bank.

      Nature of Operations - The Company provides savings and financing services
      primarily  to  individuals  through  its  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  First
      Federal  Savings  Bank located in  Sistersville,  West  Virginia.  Primary
      deposit  products  consist  of  savings,  NOW,  and Money  Market  deposit
      accounts, and certificates of deposit. Primary lending products consist of
      conventional  mortgage,  construction,  and  consumer  loans.  The  Bank's
      primary market area for lending and deposits consists of Wood,  Pleasants,
      Tyler, and Wetzel Counties in West Virginia.

      Principles  of  Consolidation  -  The  consolidated  financial  statements
      include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, First
      Federal Savings Bank. Material intercompany accounts and transactions have
      been eliminated.

      Use of Estimates - The  preparation of financial  statements in conformity
      with generally accepted accounting  principles requires management to make
      estimates and assumptions  that affect the reported  amounts of assets and
      liabilities,  disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
      of the  financial  statements,  and the  reported  amounts of revenues and
      expenses  during the reporting  period.  Actual  results could differ from
      those estimates.

      Held to Maturity  Securities - These  securities  are  purchased  with the
      original  intent to hold to maturity  and events  which may be  reasonably
      anticipated  are  considered  when  determining  the Company's  intent and
      ability to hold to maturity.  Securities meeting such criteria at the date
      of purchase and as of the balance sheet date are carried at cost, adjusted
      for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts.

      Available  for Sale  Securities  -  Securities  to be held for  indefinite
      periods of time and not intended to be held to maturity are  classified as
      available for sale and carried at market value with  unrealized  gains and
      losses, net of tax, reflected as a component of shareholders' equity until
      realized.   Securities  held  for  indefinite   periods  of  time  include
      securities  that may be sold to meet  liquidity  needs or in  response  to
      significant  changes in interest rates or prepayment  risks as part of the
      Company's overall asset/liability management strategy. Realized securities
      gains and losses are computed using the specific identification method.

      Interest  and Fees on Loans - Interest  on loans is  credited to income as
      earned and is accrued only if it is considered  collectible.  An allowance
      for  uncollected  interest on mortgage  loans is provided  for all accrued
      interest  on loans  which  are  delinquent  90 days or more  resulting  in
      interest previously accrued on those loans being reversed from income and,
      thereafter,  interest  is  recognized  only  to  the  extent  of  payments
      received.  Loans are  returned  to accrual  status  when less than 90 days
      delinquent and when, in management's judgment, collection is probable.

           NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                             MARCH 31, 1999 AND 1998


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

      The Company  adopted the  provisions of Statement of Financial  Accounting
      Standards Nos. 114 and 118,  "Accounting for Creditors for Impairment of a
      Loan." It is the  Company's  policy not to  recognize  interest  income on
      specific  impaired  loans unless the  likelihood of future loss is remote.
      Interest payments received on such loans are applied as a reduction of the
      loan principal balance.

      Since the adoption of SFAS Nos.114 and 118, the Company had no loans which
      management has determined to be impaired.

      Loan  origination and commitment fees and certain direct loan  origination
      costs are  deferred,  and the net amount  amortized  over the  contractual
      lives of the related loans or  commitments as an adjustment of the related
      loan's yield using the interest method.

      Allowance for Loan Losses - The allowance for loan losses is maintained at
      a level which,  in  management's  judgment,  is adequate to absorb  credit
      losses  inherent in the loan  portfolio.  The amount of the  allowance  is
      based  on  management's  evaluation  of the  collectibility  of  the  loan
      portfolio,  including the nature of the portfolio,  credit concentrations,
      trends  in  historical  loss  experience,  specific  impaired  loans,  and
      economic   conditions.   Allowances   for  impaired  loans  are  generally
      determined  based on  collateral  values or the present value of estimated
      cash flows.  The  allowance is  increased by a provision  for loan losses,
      which is charged to expense and reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries.
      Changes  in the  allowance  relating  to  impaired  loans are  charged  or
      credited  to the  provision  for loan  losses.  Because  of  uncertainties
      inherent to the estimation process, management's estimate of credit losses
      inherent in the loan portfolio and the related allowance may change in the
      near term.

           Real Estate Acquired in Settlement of Loans - Real estate acquired in
      settlement of loans is classified  separately on the balance sheets at the
      lower of the recorded  investment  in the property or its fair value minus
      estimated costs of sale.

           Office  Properties  and Equipment - Premises and equipment are stated
      at cost, less  accumulated  depreciation.  Provisions for depreciation are
      computed on the  straight-line  method over the estimated  useful lives of
      the assets.

      When units of  property  are  disposed  of,  the  premises  and  equipment
      accounts are relieved of the cost and the accumulated depreciation related
      to such units.  Any  resulting  gains or losses are credited to or charged
      against  income.  Costs and repairs and maintenance are charged to expense
      as incurred. Major renewals and betterments are capitalized at cost.

      Income Taxes - Deferred tax assets and  liabilities are recognized for the
      future tax consequences  attributable to differences between the financial
      statement  carrying  amounts of existing  assets and liabilities and their
      respective  tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and  liabilities  are measured
      using enacted tax rates  expected to apply to taxable  income in the years
      in which those  temporary  differences  are  expected to be  recovered  or
      settled.

                             MARCH 31, 1999 AND 1998


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

      Earnings Per Common Share - On June 25, 1997,  the Company  issued 661,428
      shares of common  stock.  Earnings  per share data for the 1998 period has
      been  determined by dividing net income since July 1, 1997, of $288,809 by
      the weighted  average  number of shares issued and  outstanding  since the
      original issued date.  Earnings from June 25, 1997, through June 30, 1997,
      were determined not to be meaningful. As discussed in Note 10, the Company
      accounts for the 52,914 shares  acquired by the Employee  Stock  Ownership
      Plan (the "ESOP") in accordance  with Statement of Position  93-6;  shares
      controlled by the ESOP are not  considered in the weighted  average shares
      outstanding  until the shares are  committed  for  allocation  to employee
      accounts.  The  proforma net income per share for the 1999 period is $.59,
      assuming the shares had been outstanding for the entire period.

      In  February,  1997,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  issued
      Statement on Financial  Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share"
      ("SFAS No. 128").  SFAS No. 128 differs from prior accounting  guidance in
      that  earnings  per share is  classified  as basic  earnings per share and
      diluted  earnings  per share,  compared to primary  earnings per share and
      fully diluted earnings per share under prior standards. Basic earnings per
      share differs from primary earnings per share in that it includes only the
      weighted  average  common  shares  outstanding  and does not  include  any
      dilutive common stock equivalents in the calculation. Diluted earnings per
      share under the new standard differs in certain  calculations  compared to
      fully diluted earnings per share under prior standards.

      The  following  table  sets  forth the  computation  of basic and  diluted
      earnings  per share.  There were no  convertible  securities  which  would
      affect the numerator in calculating  basic and diluted earnings per share;
      therefore,  net income as  presented  on the  Consolidated  Statements  of
      Income for March 31, 1999, and net income, since inception,  July 1, 1997,
      of  $288,809  for  March  31,  1998,  will be used as the  numerator.  The
      following  tables set forth a  reconciliation  of the  denominator  of the
      basic and diluted earnings per share computation:

                                                               December 31,

NOTE 2 STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

      On June 25, 1997, the Company  completed the sale of 661,428 common shares
      at $10 per share and received net proceeds of $5,664,987.  Included in the
      661,428 shares were 52,914 shares acquired by the ESOP.

      On March 9, 1998, the Company completed the repurchase of 33,071 shares or
      5% of its outstanding  common stock in the open market pursuant to a stock
      repurchase  program.  During the fiscal  year ended  March 31,  1999,  the

NOTE 7 - REGULATORY MATTERS

      The Subsidiary Bank is subject to various regulatory capital  requirements
      administered  by its  primary  federal  regulator,  the  Office  of Thrift
      Supervision.  Failure to meet the minimum regulatory capital  requirements
      can initiate  certain  mandatory,  and possible  additional  discretionary
      actions by regulators,  that if undertaken,  could have a direct  material
      affect on the Bank's financial  statements.  Under the regulatory  capital
      adequacy  guidelines  and the regulatory  framework for prompt  corrective
      action,  the  Bank  must  meet  specific  capital   guidelines   involving
      quantitative  measures  of the Bank's  assets,  liabilities,  and  certain
      off-balance-sheet   items  as  calculated  under   regulatory   accounting
      practices.  The Bank's capital amounts and classification under the prompt
      corrective action guidelines are also subject to qualitative  judgement by
      the regulators about components, risk weighting, and other factors.

      Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
      require the Bank to maintain  minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the
      table  below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the  regulations)
      to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of tangible and core capital (as
      defined) to adjusted assets (as defined). Management believes, as of March
      31, 1999, that the Bank meets all capital  adequacy  requirements to which
      they are subject.

      As of March 31,  1999,  the most  recent  notification  from the Office of
      Thrift  Supervision  categorized the Bank as "well  capitalized" under the
      regulatory  framework for prompt  corrective  action. To be categorized as
      "well capitalized", the Bank must maintain minimum total risk- based, Tier
      I (core) risk-based,  core, and tangible ratios as set forth in the table.
      There are no conditions or events since the  notification  that management
      believes have changed the institution's category.

      The following table reconciles capital under generally accepted accounting
      principles to regulatory capital:

NOTE 8 - INCOME TAX

      Until  1996,  thrift  institutions  were  permitted  a  special  bad debts
      deduction  limited generally to 8% of otherwise taxable income and subject
      to  certain  limitations  based on  aggregate  loans and  savings  account
      balances at the end of the year.  On August 20, 1996,  the Small  Business
      Job Protection Act (the "Act") was signed into law. The Act eliminated the
      percentage of taxable  income bad debt  deduction for thrift  institutions
      and requires that bad debts for federal  income tax purposes be determined
      based primarily on the experience  method.  The Act provides that bad debt
      reserves accumulated after 1987 are subject to recapture over a maximum of
      six years.  The Act provides that bad debt reserves  accumulated  prior to
      1988 be exempt from  recapture.  If the amounts that qualify as deductions
      for federal income tax purposes are later used for purposes other than for
      bad debt  losses,  they will be subject to federal  income tax at the then
      corporate  rate.  Retained  income,  at March 31, 1999 and 1998,  included
      approximately  $618,000 (pre 1988  reserves) for which federal  income tax
      has not been provided.

NOTE 9 - RETIREMENT PLAN

      The  Bank  participates  in  the  multi-employer   Financial  Institutions
      Retirement Fund covering all full-time  officers and employees  completing
      one  year of  service  and  attainment  of age 21.  Because  the plan is a
      multi-employer  plan,  plan  information  for the Bank  separately  is not
      determinable.  Pension expense,  including administrative charges, for the
      years ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, was $1,800 and $600, respectively.


NOTE 10 - EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN ("ESOP")

      During the year ended  March 31,  1998,  the Bank  adopted an ESOP for the
      benefit  of  officers  and  employees  who  have met  certain  eligibility
      requirements  related  to age and  length of  service.  An ESOP  trust was
      created  and  acquired  52,914  shares  of common  stock in the  Company's
      initial  public  offering,  using  proceeds  of a loan  obtained  from the
      Company,  which bears interest at an annual rate of 8.25%. The loan, which
      is secured by shares of stock purchased, calls for quarterly interest over
      a ten-year period and annual principal payments of $52,914.

      The Bank is  scheduled  to make  quarterly  contributions  to the trust to
      allow  the  trust to make the  required  interest  payments  and an annual
      contribution  to allow the trust to make the required  principal  payment.
      Shares are released from  collateral  based upon the  proportion of annual
      principal  payments  made on the loan each year and allocated to qualified
      employees. As shares are committed to be released from collateral based on
      the terms of the loan,  the Bank reports  compensation  expense based upon
      the fair  value of the  shares,  and the  shares  become  outstanding  for
      earnings per share  computations.  Dividends paid on allocated ESOP shares
      are  recorded  as a  reduction  of retained  earnings.  Dividends  paid on
      unallocated  shares are  recorded as  compensation  expense.  Compensation
      expense  for the ESOP for the years  ended  March 31,  1999 and 1998,  was
      $81,171 and $74,771, respectively.

      The following table  represents the components of the ESOP shares at March
31:

NOTE 11 - RESTRICTED STOCK PLAN (RSP)

      The Board of Directors  adopted a RSP for directors  and certain  officers
      and employees  which was approved by  stockholders  at the annual  meeting
      held on July 16, 1998.  The objective of this RSP is to enable the Bank to
      retain its corporate officers,  key employees,  and directors who have the
      experience and the ability necessary to manage these entities.  Directors,
      officers,   and  key   employees  who  are  selected  by  members  of  the
      Board-appointed  committee are eligible to receive benefits under the RSP.
      Non-employee directors of the Bank serve as trustees for the RSP, and have
      the  responsibility  to invest  all funds  contributed  by the Bank to the
      Trust created for the RSP.

      In August, 1998, the Trust purchased,  with funds contributed by the Bank,
      shares  of the  common  stock of  which  23,185  shares  were  awarded  to
      directors and employees,  and 3,272 shares remained unawarded.  Directors,
      officers, and employees who terminate their employment with the Bank shall
      forfeit the right to any shares which were awarded but not earned,  except
      in the event of death, disability,  retirement,  or a change in control of
      the Bank or Company.  The Bank granted a total of 23,185  shares of common
      stock on July 16, 1998, of which 4,637 became immediately vested under the
      plan.  Remaining shares become earned and non-forfeitable over a four-year
      period on each  anniversary date of the award beginning July 16, 1999. The
      RSP shares  purchased in the  conversion  initially  will be excluded from
      stockholders'  equity. The Company recognizes  compensation expense in the
      amount of fair value of the common stock at the grant date, pro rata, over
      the years  during  which the shares are earned and recorded as an addition
      to stockholders'  equity. Net compensation expense attributable to the RSP
      amounted to $125,866 for the year ended March 31, 1999.


NOTE 12 - STOCK OPTION PLAN

      The Board of  Directors  adopted a Stock  Option  Plan for the  directors,
      officers,  and employees  which was approved by stockholders at the annual
      meeting held on July 16, 1998. An aggregate of 66,142 shares of authorized
      but unissued  common stock of the Company was reserved for issuance  under
      the Stock  Option Plan.  The Company  granted  options to purchase  58,000
      shares of common stock. The options are first exercisable over a five-year
      period  beginning  July  16,  1998.  The  stock  options   typically  have
      expiration  terms of ten years.  The per share  exercise  price of a stock
      option  shall  be,  at a  minimum,  equal to the fair  value of a share of
      common stock on the date the option is granted. Proceeds from the exercise
      of the stock  options are credited to common stock for the  aggregate  par
      value and the excess is credited to additional paid-in capital.

      The Company adopted Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 123,
      "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation".  This statement encourages, but
      does not  require the Company to  recognize  compensation  expense for all
      awards of equity  instruments  issued.  The  statement  established a fair
      value based method of accounting for stock-based  compensation  plans. The
      standard  applies to all transactions in which an entity acquires goods or
      services by issuing  equity  instruments  or by incurring  liabilities  in
      amounts  based on the price of the  entity's  common stock or other equity
      instruments.  Statement  No. 123 permits  companies to continue to account
      for  such   transactions   under  Accounting   Principles  Board  No.  25,
      "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," but requires disclosure of pro
      forma net income and  earnings per share as if the Company had applied the
      new method.

NOTE 12 - STOCK OPTION PLAN (CONTINUED)

      Under Accounting  Principles Board Opinion 25, no compensation expense has
      been recognized with respect to the options granted under the stock option
      plans. Had compensation expense been determined on the basis of fair value
      pursuant to  Statement  No. 123,  net income and  earnings per share would
      have been reduced as follows:

NOTE 13 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

      The   Subsidiary   Bank  is  a  party  to   financial   instruments   with
      off-balance-sheet  risk in the  normal  course  of  business  to meet  the
      financing  needs of its customers.  These  financial  instruments  include
      commitments  to extend  credit.  These  instruments  involve,  to  varying
      degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the
      consolidated  balance sheets.  The contract  amounts of these  instruments
      reflect  the  extent of  involvement  the  institution  has in  particular
      classes of financial instruments.

NOTE 13 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)

      The Company's  exposure to credit loss in the event of  nonperformance  by
      the other party to the  financial  instrument  for  commitments  to extend
      credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments.  The
      Company  uses  the  same  credit   policies  in  making   commitments  and
      conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

      The following  represents  financial  instruments  whose contract  amounts
      represent credit risk at March 31:

                                                =============    =============

      The  range of  interest  rates on fixed  rate  residential  mortgage  loan
      commitments was 6.99% to 7.25% at March 31, 1999.

      Commitments  to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long
      as there is no violation of any  condition  established  in the  contract.
      Commitments  generally have fixed  expiration  dates or other  termination
      clauses and may require  payment of a fee.  Since many of the  commitments
      are  expected to expire  without  being drawn upon,  the total  commitment
      amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company
      evaluates each customer's  creditworthiness  on a case-by-case  basis. The
      amount of  collateral  obtained,  if deemed  necessary by the Company upon
      extension of credit,  is based on  management's  credit  evaluation of the
      counter  party.   Collateral  held  consists  primarily  of  single-family
      residences.

      Concentration of Credit Risk
      ----------------------------

      The Subsidiary Bank's real estate loans and loan commitments are primarily
      for properties  located  throughout  Northern West Virginia.  Repayment of
      these loans is in part  dependent  upon the  economic  conditions  in this
      region. These loans are primarily at fixed interest rates.


NOTE 14 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

      The following  methods and assumptions were used in estimating fair values
      of financial instruments as disclosed herein:

          Cash and Cash  Equivalents:  For  those  short-term  instruments,  the
          carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

NOTE 14 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)

          Investment   Securities  and  Securities   Held  for  Sale:  For  debt
          securities  and  marketable  equity  securities  held  for  investment
          purposes and for sale,  fair values are based on quoted  market prices
          or dealer  quotes.  If a quoted  market price is not  available,  fair
          value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.

          Loans:  For  certain  homogeneous  categories  of loans,  such as some
          residential mortgages, fair value is estimated using the quoted market
          prices for securities backed by similar loans. The fair value of other
          types of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using
          the current  rates at which  similar  loans would be made to borrowers
          with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.

          Deposit  Liabilities:  The fair  value  of  demand  deposits,  savings
          accounts,  and certain money market  deposits is the amount payable on
          demand  at the  reporting  date.  The  fair  value  of  fixed-maturity
          certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered
          for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

      The estimated fair values of the Company's  financial  instruments  are as
follows:

NOTE 15 - CONVERSION AND REORGANIZATION

      On December 5, 1996, the Board of Directors of the Association adopted the
      Plan of Conversion  pursuant to which the Association  proposed to convert
      from   a    federally-chartered    mutual    savings   and   loan   to   a
      federally-chartered  stock  savings bank and  concurrently  form a unitary
      savings and loan holding company.

      As part of the  conversion  process,  the Company was  organized in March,
      1997,  at the direction of the Board of Directors of the  Association  for
      the purpose of acquiring all of the capital stock to be issued by the Bank
      in the  Conversion.  After  approval  by  regulatory  authorities  and the
      Association's  members, the conversion was completed on June 25, 1997. The
      Company  became a unitary  savings  and loan  company  with its  principal
      assets  being  the  capital  stock  of the Bank  and a  percentage  of the
      Conversion  proceeds permitted to be retained.  From the proceeds from the
      sale of 661,428 shares of stock at $10.00 per share, $66,143 was allocated
      to common  stock  based on a par  value of $.10 per share and  $6,127,984,
      which is net of conversion costs of $420,153,  was allocated to additional
      paid-in capital.

                             MARCH 31, 1999 AND 1998


NOTE 15 - CONVERSION AND REORGANIZATION (CONTINUED)

      In accordance with regulations, at the time that the Association converted
      from a mutual  savings  and loan to a stock  savings  bank,  a portion  of
      retained  earnings  will  be  restricted  by  establishing  a  liquidation
      account.  The  liquidation  account will be maintained  for the benefit of
      eligible  account  holders who continue to maintain  their accounts at the
      Bank  after  the  conversion.  The  liquidation  account  will be  reduced
      annually to the extent that  eligible  account  holders have reduced their
      qualifying  deposits.  Subsequent  increases  will not restore an eligible
      account holder's  interest in the liquidation  account.  In the event of a
      complete  liquidation of the Bank, each account holder will be entitled to
      receive  a  distribution  from  the  liquidation   account  in  an  amount
      proportionate  to the current  adjusted  qualifying  balances for accounts
      then held.


NOTE 16 - ADVANCES FROM FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK

      As of March 31, 1999, the Bank had outstanding an advance from the Federal
      Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Pittsburgh of  $1,000,000.  Various assets with a
      total  collateral  value  of  $20,600,000  were  pledged  to the  FHLB  as
      collateral  at March  31,  1999.  The  advance  is a 5.15%  fixed-interest
      obligation with an optional  change to a variable  interest rate at August
      21, 1999. The advance matures on August 31, 2008, while interest  payments
      are payable monthly on the outstanding principal balance.


NOTE 17 - DIRECTOR RETIREMENT AGREEMENT

      Effective May 7, 1998, the Company and Subsidiary Bank offered  individual
      retirement  agreements with current  directors of the Company and the Bank
      having completed a minimum of fifteen years of service. Under the terms of
      the  agreement,  retiring  directors  receive $1,200 for each year of past
      service  as a board  member of the Bank or  Association  and the  Company.
      Retirement  benefits were payable either in quarterly  installments over a
      five-year period commencing  September 17, 1998, or in a lump sum with the
      total benefit discounted at an annual rate of five percent (5%). Directors
      executing  the  retirement   agreement   discontinued  serving  as  active
      directors to the Company and Bank on July 2, 1998.

      At May 16, 1998, four directors executed retirement  agreements.  Based on
      the past service of those directors  involved,  the Company took a pre-tax
      charge of $94,000 in the first fiscal quarter of the year ending March 31,
      1999, representing the present value of benefit payments.

NOTE 18 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

      In June, 1997, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board issued Statement
      of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No.  130,  "Reporting  Comprehensive
      Income." This statement establishes standards for reporting and display of
      comprehensive  income  in a full  set of  financial  statements.  The Bank
      adopted this statement on April 1, 1998, and has reclassified  information
      in the 1998 financial  statements to reflect application of the provisions
      of this statement. Unrealized gains and losses on securities available for
      sale are the only  components  of other  comprehensive  income (loss) that
      apply to the Bank.
