necessary for a fair presentation of results for the unaudited interim
periods.
The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June
30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1998. The consolidated financial

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Financial Condition
Total assets decreased $9.3 million or 8.2% to $104.0 million at June
30, 1998 compared to $113.3 million at December 31, 1997. Such decrease was
primarily due to decreases in investment securities available for sale, cash
and cash equivalents, and loans receivable, offset somewhat by increases in
mortgage-backed securities. Total liabilities decreased $9.2 million or 9.5%
to $88.0 million at June 30, 1998. Such decrease was primarily due to a
decrease in both deposits and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank
("FHLB") of Pittsburgh. Stockholders' equity amounted to $16.1 million at June
30, 1998 and December 31, 1997.
Results of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 and
1997.
General. Net losses amounted to $82,000 for the three months ended June
30, 1998 compared to net income of $56,000 for the second quarter of 1997. Net
losses amounted to $43,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to
net income of $122,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997. A significant
portion of these decreases was attributed to one-time charges incurred during
the second quarter related to the resignation of the Company's president.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income is determined by the Company's
interest rate spread (i.e., the difference between the yields earned on its
interest-earning assets and the rates paid on its interest-bearing
liabilities) and the relative amounts of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income increased $149,000 or 26.3%
to $716,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $567,000 for
the same period in 1997. Net interest income increased $290,000 or 26.5% to
$1,386,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $1,095,000 for
the same period in 1997. These significant increases in net interest income
were due to actions taken by the Bank to reduce its interest rate risk
exposure. Such actions included repaying FHLB advances and reducing higher
rate certificates of deposit. The interest rate spread increased from 1.74% at
June 30, 1997 to 1.79% at June 30, 1998.
Interest Income. Total interest income was $1.9 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $2.1 million for the same period in
1997 representing a decrease of $124,000 or 6.0%. Interest income was $3.9
million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $4.1 million for
the same period in 1997 representing a decrease of $140,000 or 3.4%. The
decrease in interest income on loans for both periods in 1998, due to a
decrease in the average balance of such assets, was substantially offset by an
increase in interest and dividends on investments as a result of an increase
in the average balance of such assets. The balance of loans receivable
decreased due to an increase in loan prepayments. The increase in interest
income on investments for both periods in 1998 was due to the investment in
such assets of a portion of the proceeds received in the Conversion. These
proceeds are currently earning interest and have not yet been fully utilized
in the Bank's expansion efforts.
8
<PAGE>
Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $273,000 or 18.2% to $1.2
million for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $1.5 million for
the comparable period in 1997. For the six months ended June 30, 1998,
interest expense decreased $430,000 or 14.4% to $2.5 million from $3.0 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1997. Such decreases were primarily due to a
decrease in interest expense on advances from the FHLB of Pittsburgh and on
deposits as a result of a decrease in the average balance of such liabilities.
Proceeds from mortgage loan prepayments and excess funds have been used to
repay FHLB advances as they became due.
Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses increased to
$15,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to the $10,000
provision for the second quarter ended June 30, 1997. For the six months ended
June 30, 1998 the provision for loan losses amounted to $30,000 compared to
$10,000 for the same period in 1997. The allowance for loan losses is
increased by charges to income and decreased by charge-offs (net of
recoveries). Management's periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance
is based on the Bank's past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in
the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to
repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and current economic
conditions.
Other Income. Other income increased $22,000 or 42.1% to $74,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997 due to an
increase in gains on loans sold. Other income increased $11,000 or 11.2% to
$113,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to the same period in
1997 due to an increase in loans sold and due to an adjustment made to reflect
a loss on the sale of investment securities.
Other Expenses. Other expenses increased $403,000 or 78.6% to $916,000
for the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997.
Other expenses increased $566,000 or 58.0% to $1.5 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 compared to the same period in 1997. Such increases were
primarily due to increases in salaries and employee benefits, advertising and
other general and administrative expenses. The increase in salaries and
benefits was primarily due to costs related to the resignation of the
Company's president. The increase in advertising expense was due primarily to
increased advertising in introducing new products. The increase in
professional fees was due to additional legal expenses and outside
consultants. Legal fees have increased due to the additional reporting
requirements of a public company and expenses related to the severance
agreement with the Company's former president. Consulting fees have been
incurred for branch feasibility and personnel matters. The increase in other
general and administrative expenses was primarily due to expenses incurred
associated with the Company's annual meeting.

Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes amounted to a benefit of
$59,000 and a provision of $40,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1998
and 1997, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of (42.0%) and 41.7%,
respectively. The provision for income taxes amounted to a benefit of $32,000
and a provision of $88,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of (42.0%) and 41.9%,
respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Bank's liquidity, represented by cash and cash equivalents, is a
product of its operating, investing and financing activities. The Bank's
primary sources of funds are deposits, borrowings, amortization, prepayments
and maturities of outstanding loans, sales of loans, maturities of investment
securities and other short-term investments and funds provided from
operations. Although scheduled loan amortization and maturing investment
securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of
funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general
interest rates, economic conditions and competition. The Bank manages the
pricing of its deposits to maintain a steady deposit balance. In addition, the
Bank invests excess funds in overnight deposits and other short-term
interest-earning assets which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements.
The Bank generally has been able to generate enough cash through the retail
deposit market, its traditional funding source, to offset the cash utilized in
investing activities. As an additional source of funds, the Bank may borrow
from the FHLB of Pittsburgh and has access to the Federal Reserve discount
window. At June 30, 1998, the Bank had $14.1 million of outstanding advances
from the FHLB of Pittsburgh.
As of June 30, 1998, the Bank's regulatory capital was in excess of all
applicable regulatory requirements. At June 30, 1998, the Bank's tangible,
core and risk-based capital ratios amounted to 12.8%, 12.8% and 23.3%,
respectively, compared to regulatory requirements of 1.5%, 3.0% and 8.0%,
respectively.
Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The financial statements and related financial data presented herein
have been prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-QSB, which
require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms
of historical dollars, without considering changes in relative purchasing
power over time due to inflation.
Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the Bank's assets and
liabilities are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates generally have
a more significant impact on a financial institution's performance than does
the effect of inflation.

The Year 2000 Issue
The Company is aware of the issues associated with the programming code
in existing computer systems as the Year 2000 approaches. The Year 2000 Issue
is the result of computer programs being written using two digits rather than
four digits to define the applicable year. Computer programs that have
time-sensitive coding may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather
than the year 2000. Systems that do not properly recognize such information
could generate erroneous data or cause a system to fail.
The Bank has conducted a review of its computer systems to identify the
systems that could be affected by the Year 2000 issue and has developed an
implementation plan to resolve the issue. The majority of the Bank's data
processing is provided by a third party service bureau. The service bureau is
actively involved in resolving Year 2000 issues and has provided the Bank with
frequent updates regarding their progress. The service bureau has advised the
Bank that it expects to have the majority of the Year 2000 issues resolved
before the end of 1998 to allow the Bank to test their system for Year 2000
compliance during the third quarter of 1998. The Bank presently believes that,
based on the progress of the Bank's service bureau, the Year 2000 problem will
not pose significant operational problems for the Bank's computer system.
Costs are anticipated to be immaterial at this time.
