                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                For the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999


1.       Basis of Presentation

         The  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements  were
         prepared  in  accordance  with   instructions   for  Form  10-QSB  and,
         therefore,  do not include  information  or footnotes  necessary  for a
         complete presentation of financial position,  results of operations and
         cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
         Accordingly,  these financial  statements should be read in conjunction
         with the  financial  statements  and  notes  thereto  of Wayne  Savings
         Bancshares,  Inc.  included in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the
         year  ended  March  31,  2000.  In  the  opinion  of  management,   all
         adjustments  (consisting only of normal  recurring  accruals) which are
         necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements have been
         included.  The results of operations for the  three-month  period ended
         June 30, 2000 are not  necessarily  indicative of the results which may
         be expected for an entire fiscal year.

         Wayne  Savings  Community  Bank has eight  banking  locations in Wayne,
         Holmes,  Ashland and Medina counties,  Ohio, in addition to its Village
         Savings Bank, F.S.B. subsidiary now serving Stark county.

2.       Principles of Consolidation

         The  accompanying   consolidated  financial  statements  include  Wayne
         Savings   Bancshares,   Inc.  (the  "Company")  and  its   wholly-owned
         subsidiary,  Wayne  Savings  Community  Bank  ("Wayne  Savings"  or the
         "Bank").  In fiscal  1999 the Bank formed a new  federal  savings  bank
         subsidiary in North Canton,  Ohio named  Village  Savings Bank,  F.S.B.
         ("Village"), together referred to as "the Banks".

         All  significant  intercompany  transactions  and  balances  have  been
eliminated in the consolidation.

3.       Earnings Per Share

         Basic  earnings  per common  share is computed  based upon the weighted
         average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted
         earnings per common share  include the  dilutive  effect of  additional
         potential common shares issuable under the Company's stock option plan.
         The computations were as follows:

4.       Effects of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

         In June 1998,  the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board (the "FASB")
         issued Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards  ("SFAS") No. 133,
         "Accounting for Derivative  Instruments and Hedging  Activities," which
         requires  entities to  recognize  all  derivatives  in their  financial
         statements as either assets or liabilities measured at fair value. SFAS
         No.  133  also   specified  new  methods  of  accounting   for  hedging
         transactions, prescribes the items and transactions that may be hedged,
         and  specifies  detailed  criteria  to be  met  to  qualify  for  hedge
         accounting.

         The definition of a derivative  financial instrument is complex, but in
         general,  it is an instrument with one or more underlyings,  such as an
         interest  rate or foreign  exchange  rate that is applied to a notional
         amount,  such as an amount of  currency,  to determine  the  settlement
         amount(s).  It generally requires no significant initial investment and
         can  be  settled  net  or by  delivery  of an  asset  that  is  readily
         convertible to cash.  SFAS No. 133 applies to  derivatives  embedded in
         other contracts,  unless the underlyings of the embedded  derivative is
         clearly and closely related to the host contract.

         SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 137, is effective for fiscal years
         beginning  after June 15, 2000. On adoption,  entities are permitted to
         transfer  held-to-maturity debt securities to the available-for-sale or
         trading  category  without  calling into question  their intent to hold
         other debt  securities  to maturity in the future.  SFAS No. 133 is not
         expected  to  have  a  material  impact  on  the  Company's   financial
         statements.

Discussion of Financial Condition Changes from March 31, 2000 to June 30, 2000

At June 30, 2000, the Company had total assets of $302.2 million,  a decrease of
$1.9 million,  or 0.6%, from March 31, 2000. The decrease was due primarily to a
$2.0  million  reduction  in the balance of advances  from the Federal Home Loan
Bank.

Cash  and  due  from  banks,  federal  funds  sold,  interest-bearing  deposits,
certificates of deposit and investment  securities totaled  approximately  $35.9
million, a decrease of approximately $5.6 million, or 13.5%, from March 31, 2000
levels.  Regulatory  liquidity  approximated 15.8% at June 30, 2000, compared to
17.9% at March  31,  2000.  During  the  quarter  ended  June 30,  2000,  excess
liquidity was used to fund loan originations and to repay Federal Home Loan Bank
advances.

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


Discussion of Financial  Condition  Changes from March 31, 2000 to June 30, 2000
(continued)

Loans  receivable  increased by  approximately  $3.4 million,  or 1.4%, over the
March 31, 2000 total.  This increase  resulted from loan  disbursements of $15.1
million, which were partially offset by principal repayments of $9.3 million and
sales of $2.1 million.  The allowance for loan losses  totaled  $846,000 at June
30, 2000, as compared to $793,000 at March 31, 2000. Nonperforming loans totaled
$192,000 at June 30, 2000 and $200,000 at March 31, 2000. The allowance for loan
losses  totaled  440.6% and 396.5% of  nonperforming  loans at June 30, 2000 and
March 31, 2000,  respectively.  Although  management believes that its allowance
for loan losses at June 30, 2000, is adequate based upon the available facts and
circumstances,  there can be no assurance  that additions to such allowance will
not be necessary in future periods,  which would adversely  affect the Company's
results of operations.

Deposits decreased by approximately  $117,000 during the quarter,  to a total of
$264.8 million at June 30, 2000.  Interest  crediting of $3.0 million during the
quarter nearly offset withdrawals of $3.1 million.

The  Banks are  subject  to  capital  standards,  which  generally  require  the
maintenance of regulatory  capital  sufficient to meet each of three tests,  the
tangible capital  requirement,  the core capital  requirement and the risk-based
capital  requirement.  At June  30,  2000,  both  Wayne  Savings  and  Village's
regulatory capital exceeded all minimum capital requirements.

Comparison of Operating  Results for the Three Month Periods Ended June 30, 2000
and 1999

Net earnings  totaled  $290,000  for the three  months  ended June 30, 2000,  as
compared to net  earnings of $342,000 for the same period in 1999, a decrease of
$52,000,  or 15.2%.  The decrease in net  earnings  resulted  primarily  from an
increase of $155,000,  or 8.9%, in general,  administrative  and other  expense,
which was partially  offset by an increase of $79,000,  or 3.8%, in net interest
income, and an increase of $28,000, or 14.7%, in other income.

Net Interest Income

Interest on loans and  mortgage-backed  securities  totaled $4.8 million for the
three  months ended June 30, 2000,  an increase of $347,000,  or 7.9%,  over the
same  period  in 1999.  The  increase  can be  primarily  attributed  to a $20.7
million,  or 9.1%,  increase in the average balance of loans and mortgage-backed
securities outstanding.

Interest on investments and  interest-bearing  deposits increased by $84,000, or
17.0%,  during the three  months  ended June 30,  2000,  as compared to the same
period in 1999,  as a result of a slight  increase in the average  balance  from
year to year, coupled with an increase in the average yield.

Interest  expense on deposits and  borrowings  increased by $352,000,  or 12.5%,
during the three months ended June 30, 2000,  over the same period in 1999.  The
increase can be primarily  attributed to an $24.5 million,  or 9.7%, increase in
the average balance of  interest-bearing  liabilities year to year, coupled with
an increase in the average cost.

As a result of the foregoing  changes in interest  income and interest  expense,
net interest income increased by $79,000, or 3.8%, during the three months ended
June 30, 2000, as compared to the same period in 1999.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                      AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)


Comparison of Operating  Results for the Three Month Periods Ended June 30, 2000
and 1999(continued)

Provision for Losses on Loans

A  provision  for  losses on loans is  charged  to  earnings  to bring the total
allowance for loan losses to a level considered  appropriate by management based
on  historical  experience,  the  volume and type of  lending  conducted  by the
Company,  the  status  of past due  principal  and  interest  payments,  general
economic  conditions,  particularly as such  conditions  relate to the Company's
market area, and other factors  related to the  collectibility  of the Company's
loan  portfolio.  As a result of such  analysis,  management  recorded a $51,000
provision  for losses on loans  during  the three  months  ended June 30,  2000,
primarily  due to  growth  in  the  loan  portfolio  coupled  with  management's
assessment of the collateral  securing  nonperforming  loans.  The provision for
losses on loans is  recorded  based  upon  management's  assessment  of the risk
inherent in the loan  portfolio.  There can be no  assurance  that the loan loss
allowance  of the  Company  will be adequate  to cover  losses on  nonperforming
assets in the future.

Other Income

Other income  totaled  $218,000  for the three  months  ended June 30, 2000,  an
increase of $28,000,  or 14.7%,  from the comparable 1999 period.  This increase
was due primarily to the $29,000,  or 17.2%,  increase in service fees,  charges
and other operating income.

General, Administrative and Other Expense

General, administrative and other expense increased by $155,000, or 8.9%, during
the current three month period, due primarily to a $189,000,  or 21.6%, increase
in employee  compensation and benefits and a $34,000, or 8.4%, increase in other
operating expense,  which were partially offset by a $17,000, or 48.6%, decrease
in federal  deposit  insurance  premiums  and a $38,000,  or 43.2%,  decrease in
franchise  taxes.  The  increase in employee  compensation  and benefits was due
primarily  to  the  costs  associated  with  the  addition  of new  branches  as
previously  discussed,  as well as a reduction  in loan costs  deferred  for the
period  compared to the same  period in 1999.  The  increase in other  operating
expense was primarily  attributable to increased  advertising and related costs.
The  decrease  in federal  deposit  insurance  premiums  was due to a decline in
insurance  rates.  The  decrease  in  franchise  taxes  was due  primarily  to a
reduction in the rate of tax.

Federal Income Taxes

The provision for federal income taxes amounted to $149,000 for the three months
ended June 30,  2000, a decrease of $26,000,  or 14.9%,  as compared to the same
period in 1999.  The  decrease  resulted  primarily  from a  $78,000,  or 15.1%,
decrease in pretax  earnings year to year. The effective tax rates for the three
months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 were 33.9% and 33.8%, respectively.
