                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                    For the Quarter Ended September 30, 1999
                                   (unaudited)


These Notes to Financial  Statements  reflect events  subsequent to December 31,
1998,  the date of the most recent Report of Independent  Auditors,  through the
date of this  Quarterly  Report on Form  10-Q for the nine  month  period  ended
September  30,  1999.  These  Notes to  Financial  Statements  should be read in
conjunction  with Financial  Information  and Other  Information  required to be
furnished as part of this Report, in particular, (1) Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial  Condition and Results of Operations  for the three months
ended  September  30, 1999 and  September 30, 1998 and for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 and September  30,1998,  in respect to the Company's  capital
requirements and liquidity, (2) Part II, Item 6, Reports on Form 8-K and (3) the
Company's  Annual  Report - Form  10-K for the year  ended  December  31,  1998,
incorporated herein by reference.


NOTE 1 -- Principles of Consolidation

Penseco  Financial  Services  Corporation  (Company) is a bank holding  company,
incorporated  under the laws of  Pennsylvania.  It is the parent company of Penn
Security Bank and Trust Company (Bank), a state chartered bank.

Intercompany  transactions  have been  eliminated in preparing the  consolidated
financial statements.

The  accounting   policies  of  the  Company  conform  with  generally  accepted
accounting principles and with general practices within the banking industry.


NOTE 2 -- Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information.
In the opinion of management,  all  adjustments  that are of a normal  recurring
nature and are considered  necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
They are not,  however,  necessarily  indicative of the results of  consolidated
operations for a full year.

For further  information,  refer to the  consolidated  financial  statements and
accompanying  notes included in the Company's  Annual Report - Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 1998.


NOTE 3 -- 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  and  disclosure  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.

Material  estimates that are  particularly  susceptible  to  significant  change
relate  to the  determination  of the  allowance  for  losses  on loans  and the
valuation  of  real  estate  acquired  in  connection  with  foreclosures  or in
satisfaction of loans. In connection  with the  determination  of the allowances
for losses on loans and foreclosed real estate,  management obtains  independent
appraisals for significant properties.


NOTE 4 -- Investment Securities

Investments  in securities are classified in two categories and accounted for as
follows:

Securities  Held-to-Maturity.   Bonds,  notes,  debentures  and  mortgage-backed
securities for which the Company has the positive  intent and ability to hold to
maturity  are  reported at cost,  adjusted  for  amortization  of  premiums  and
accretion of discounts  computed on the  straight-line  basis over the period to
maturity, which approximates the interest method.

Securities  Available-for-Sale.  Bonds,  notes,  debentures,  and certain equity
securities  not classified as securities to be  held-to-maturity  are carried at
fair value with unrealized  holding gains and losses,  net of tax, reported as a
net amount in a separate component of stockholders' equity until realized.

Realized  gains and  losses  on the sale of  securities  available-for-sale  are
determined  using the  specific  identification  method  and are  reported  as a
separate component of other income in the Statements of Income. Unrealized gains
and losses are included as a separate item in computing comprehensive income.

The Company has no  derivative  financial  instruments  required to be disclosed
under SFAS No. 119.

NOTE 5 -- Regulatory Matters

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital  requirements
administered  by the Federal banking  agencies.  Failure to meet minimum capital
requirements   can  initiate  certain   mandatory  -  and  possibly   additional
discretionary - actions by regulators  that, if undertaken,  could have a direct
material effect on the Company and the Bank's consolidated financial statements.
Under  capital  adequacy  guidelines  and the  regulatory  framework  for prompt
corrective  action,  the  Company  and  the  Bank  must  meet  specific  capital
guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities,  and
certain  off-balance  sheet  items as  calculated  under  regulatory  accounting
practices.  The Company's and the Bank's capital amounts and  classification are
also subject to qualitative judgements by the regulators about components,  risk
weightings and other factors.

Quantitative  measures  established  by  regulation to ensure  capital  adequacy
require the Company  and the Bank to  maintain  minimum  amounts and ratios (set
forth in the  Capital  Adequacy  table  below)  of Tier 1 and Total  Capital  to
risk-weighted  assets and of Tier 1 Capital to average assets (Leverage  ratio).
The table also presents the Company's  actual  capital  amounts and ratios.  The
Bank's  actual  capital  amounts and ratios are  substantially  identical to the
Company's.  Management believes,  as of September 30, 1999, that the Company and
the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

As of September 30, 1999, the most recent  notification from the Federal Deposit
Insurance  Corporation  categorized the Company as "well  capitalized" under the
regulatory  framework for prompt  corrective  action. To be categorized as "well
capitalized",  the Company must maintain  minimum Tier 1 Capital,  Total Capital
and Leverage  ratios as set forth in the Capital  Adequacy  table.  There are no
conditions  or events since that  notification  that  management  believes  have
changed the Company's categorization by the FDIC.

The  Company and Bank are also  subject to minimum  capital  levels  which could
limit the payment of  dividends,  although the Company and Bank  currently  have
capital levels which are in excess of minimum capital level ratios required.

The Pennsylvania  Banking Code restricts  capital funds available for payment of
dividends to the Retained  Earnings of the Bank.  Accordingly,  at September 30,
1999, the balances in the Capital Stock and Surplus accounts  totalling  $10,840
are unavailable for dividends.

In  addition,  the Bank is subject  to  restrictions  imposed by Federal  law on
certain transactions with the Company's  affiliates.  These transactions include
extensions  of  credit,  purchases  of or  investments  in stock  issued  by the
affiliate,  purchases of assets  subject to certain  exceptions,  acceptance  of
securities  issued by an affiliate as collateral for loans,  and the issuance of
guarantees,  acceptances,  and letters of credit on behalf of affiliates.  These
restrictions  prevent the  Company's  affiliates  from  borrowing  from the Bank
unless the loans are secured by obligations of designated amounts.  Further, the
aggregate of such transactions by the Bank with a single affiliate is limited in
<PAGE>


amount to 10 percent of the Bank's capital stock and surplus,  and the aggregate
of such  transactions with all affiliates is limited to 20 percent of the Bank's
capital stock and surplus.  The Federal Reserve System has interpreted  "capital
stock and surplus" to include undivided profits.

PART 1.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION,  Item 2 --

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


The following  commentary  provides an overview of the  financial  condition and
significant  changes in the  results  of the  operations  of  Penseco  Financial
Services Corporation and its subsidiary ("Penn Security Bank and Trust Company")
for the three months ended September 30, 1999 and September 30, 1998 and for the
nine months ended  September 30, 1999 and  September  30,1998.  Throughout  this
review the subsidiary of Penseco Financial Services  Corporation,  Penn Security
Bank and Trust  Company,  is  referred  to as the  "Company".  All  intercompany
accounts and  transactions  have been  eliminated in preparing the  consolidated
financial  statements.  All  information  is  presented in thousands of dollars,
except as indicated.

Overview of Financial Condition

The Company  reported net income of $1,407 for the three months ending September
30,  1999,  an increase of $227 or 19.2% from the $1,180  reported  for the same
three month period of 1998.  Also reported was net income of $3,486 for the nine
months ending  September  30, 1999, an increase of $11 from the $3,475  reported
for the nine months  ending  September  30,  1998.  The  increase in earnings is
attributed to a higher net interest  income  coupled with a lower  provision for
loan loss  expense,  as well as increases in other  income,  mainly our merchant
discounts,  offset somewhat with increases in operating expenses, due in part to
the  addition  of two  branches  which were not  operational  in the first eight
months of 1998.

Loans decreased $1.4 million, or .5%, while investments decreased $11.0 million,
or 9.26% since December 31, 1998.  Deposits  decreased  $12.9 million,  or 3.4%,
while repurchase  agreements increased $1.7 million, or 15.5% since December 31,
1998.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest  income,  the largest  contributor  to the Company's  earnings,  is
defined  as the  difference  between  income  on  assets  and the  cost of funds
supporting  those  assets.  Earning  assets are composed  primarily of loans and
investments while deposits and short-term borrowings,  in the form of securities
sold under  agreements to repurchase,  represent  interest-bearing  liabilities.
Variations  in the volume and mix of these  assets and  liabilities,  as well as
changes in the yields earned and rates paid, are  determinants of changes in net
interest income.

Net interest  income after  provision for loan loss,  increased  $169 or 4.2% to
$4,377 for the three  months  ending  September  30,  1999 from  $4,208 in 1998.
Similarly, for the first nine months of 1999, net interest income increased $222
or 1.8% to $12,717 from $12,495 in 1998.  These  increases  are due in part to a
higher net interest  margin,  as further  explained below, and a lower provision
for loan losses as a result of a large loan recovery in 1999.

The net interest margin represents the Company's net yield on its earning assets
and is calculated as net interest income divided by average  earning assets.  In
the first nine months of 1999, the net interest  margin was 4.24%,  increasing 4
basis points from 4.20% in the same period of 1998,  the result of a decrease in
the yield on earning  assets of 43 basis points offset by a larger  reduction in
funding costs of 54 basis points.

Changes in the volume and rate of interest  bearing assets and interest  bearing
liabilities  were key  determinants  of the increase in net interest  income for
both the three months and nine months ending  September 30, 1999 and 1998. Total
average earning assets and total average  interest bearing funds declined in the
first  nine  months of 1999 as  compared  to the same  period  in 1998.  Average
earning assets fell $4.3 million, or 1.1%, from $406.2 million in 1998 to $401.9
million in 1999 and average  interest  bearing funds decreased $6.6 million,  or
2.0%,  from  $331.8  million  to  $325.2  million  for the  same  periods.  As a
percentage of average assets,  earning assets  decreased from 94.2% in the first
nine months of 1998 to 93.0% in 1999.  Average  interest bearing funding sources
decreased  from 77.0% of total funding  sources in the first nine months of 1998
to 75.2% in the same period in 1999. The average interest rate on earning assets
decreased  from 7.47% in 1998 to 7.04% in 1999.  The  average  rate on  interest
bearing liabilities decreased by a greater amount from 4.00% in 1998 to 3.46% in
1999.

Changes in the mix of earning  assets and  funding  sources  also  impacted  net
interest  income for both the three months and nine months ending  September 30,
1999 and 1998. Average loans as a percentage of average earning assets decreased
slightly from 70.9% in 1998 to 70.4% in 1999; average investments increased from
26.0% to 27.1%;  U.S.  Treasury  Securities  decreased  from  24.0% to 18.3% and
Municipal  Securities  increased  from  0.0% to  5.9%.  Short-term  investments,
federal  funds sold,  and  interest on  balances  with banks,  fell from 3.1% of
earning assets to 2.5%.  Changes in the mix of  interest-bearing  funds produced
lower  interest  costs as funds  shifted from time deposit  accounts,  while the
Company  concentrated on maintaining  core deposits by not pricing time deposits
aggressively.  Time  deposits  decreased  $9.3  million,  from  49.5% of funding
sources to 47.6% in 1999.  This  change in  deposit  composition  resulted  in a
significant decrease in the cost of funds.

Shifts in the interest rate  environment  and competitive  factors  affected the
rates paid for funds as well as the yields earned on assets. Average loan yields
fell 19 basis  points,  from 7.92% for the first nine months of 1998 to 7.73% in
1999.  Investments and federal funds yields remained fairly stable as the market
rates were approximately the same on average in both 1998 and 1999. Average time
deposit cost of funds decreased from 5.65% in 1998 to 5.03% in 1999. This is the
primary  cause of the  decrease in the total cost of funds from 4.00% in 1998 to
3.46% in 1999.

amount  necessary  to bring  the  allowance  for  loan  losses  to a level  that
management  considers  adequate to reflect the risk of future losses inherent in
the Company's loan  portfolio.  The process of  determining  the adequacy of the
allowance  is  necessarily   judgmental  and  subject  to  changes  in  external
conditions.  The allowance for loan losses reflects  management's judgment as to
the level  considered  appropriate  to absorb such losses based upon a review of
many factors, including historical loss experience,  adverse situations that may
affect  the  borrower's  ability  to  repay  (including  the  timing  of  future
payments),  economic  conditions and trends, loan portfolio volume and mix, loan
performance  trends,  the value and adequacy of  collateral,  and the  Company's
internal  credit review  process.  Accordingly,  there can be no assurance  that
existing levels of the allowance will ultimately  prove adequate to cover actual
loan  losses.  The  quarterly  provision  for loan losses  charged to  operating
expense is that amount which is sufficient to bring the balance of the allowance
for  possible  loan losses to an adequate  level to absorb  anticipated  losses.
Based on this ongoing evaluation,  management determines the provision necessary
to maintain an appropriate allowance.

In the first  nine  months of 1999,  the  provision  for loan  losses was $70, a
decrease  from  $285 in the  first  nine  months  of 1998,  due to a large  loan
recovery in 1999.  Loans  charged-off  totaled $164 and recoveries were $188. In
the same period of 1998, recoveries of $16 offset loans charged off of $71.

Loan Quality

The lending  activities  of the Company are guided by the basic  lending  policy
established  by the Board of Directors.  Loans must meet criteria  which include
consideration of the character, capacity and capital of the borrower, collateral
provided for the loan, and prevailing economic conditions.

Regardless  of credit  standards,  there is risk of loss  inherent in every loan
portfolio.  The allowance for loan losses is an amount that management  believes
will be adequate  to absorb  possible  losses on existing  loans that may become
uncollectible,  based on evaluations  of the  collectibility  of the loans.  The
evaluations  take into  consideration  such  factors as change in the nature and
volume of the loan  portfolio,  overall  portfolio  quality,  review of specific
problem  loans,  industry  experience,  collateral  value and  current  economic
conditions that may affect the borrower's  ability to pay.  Management  believes
that the allowance for loan losses is adequate.  While management uses available
information to recognize losses on loans,  future additions to the allowance may
be  necessary  based on changes in economic  conditions.  In  addition,  various
regulatory  agencies,   as  an  integral  part  of  their  examination  process,
periodically  review the Company's  allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may
require the  Company to  recognize  additions  to the  allowance  based on their
judgment of information available to them at the time of their examination.

The allowance for loan losses is increased by periodic  charges against earnings
as a provision for loan losses,  and decreased  periodically  by  charge-offs of
loans (or parts of loans) management has determined to be uncollectible,  net of
actual recoveries on loans previously charged-off.


Non-Performing Assets

Non-performing  assets consist of non-accrual  loans,  loans past due 90 days or
more and still  accruing  interest and other real estate  owned.  The  following
table sets forth  information  regarding  non-performing  assets as of the dates
indicated:

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

</TABLE>

Loans are generally placed on a non-accrual status when principal or interest is
past  due 90 days or when  payment  in full is not  anticipated.  When a loan is
placed on nonaccrual  status,  all previously accrued but not collected interest
is charged  against  current  income.  Loans are returned to accrual status when
past due interest is collected and the collection of principal is probable.

Loans on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued or reduced amounted
to $884 and $1,111 at September 30, 1999 and  September 30, 1998,  respectively.
If interest on those loans had been  accrued,  such income  would have been $123
and $122 for the nine months ended  September  30, 1999 and  September 30, 1998,
respectively.  Interest  income  on those  loans,  which is  recorded  only when
received, amounted to $17 and $27 for September 30, 1999 and September 30, 1998,
respectively.  There are no commitments to lend additional  funds to individuals
whose loans are in non-accrual status.

The  management  process for  evaluating  the adequacy of the allowance for loan
losses  includes  reviewing each month's loan  committee  reports which list all
loans that do not meet certain  internally  developed  criteria as to collateral
adequacy,  payment  performance,  economic  conditions  and overall credit risk.
These  reports  also  address the current  status and actions in process on each
listed loan.  From this  information,  adjustments are made to the allowance for
loan losses.  Such adjustments include both specific loss allocation amounts and
general  provisions  by loan  category  based on  present  and  past  collection
experience,  nature  and  volume of the loan  portfolio,  overall  quality,  and
current economic conditions that may affect the borrower's ability to pay. As of
September 30, 1999 there are no  significant  loans as to which  management  has
serious  doubt about their  ability to  continue to perform in  accordance  with
their contractual terms.

At September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998,  the Company did not have any loans
specifically classified as impaired.
<PAGE>


Most  of the  Company's  lending  activity  is  with  customers  located  in the
Company's  geographic  market area and repayment thereof is affected by economic
conditions in this market area.

Liquidity

The objective of liquidity  management is to maintain a balance  between sources
and uses of funds in such a way that  the cash  requirements  of  customers  for
loans and deposit withdrawals are met in the most economical manner.  Management
monitors its liquidity position  continuously in relation to trends of loans and
deposits for  short-term  as well as long-term  requirements.  Liquid assets are
monitored  on a daily  basis to  assure  maximum  utilization.  Management  also
manages its liquidity  requirements  by maintaining an adequate level of readily
marketable assets and access to short-term funding sources.
<PAGE>


The  Company  remains in a highly  liquid  condition  both in the short and long
term. Sources of liquidity include the Company's  substantial U.S. Treasury bond
portfolio,  additional  deposits,  earnings,  overnight  loans to and from other
companies  (Federal  Funds) and lines of credit at the Federal Reserve Bank. The
designation of securities as "Held-To-Maturity"  lessens the ability of banks to
sell  securities  so  classified,   except  in  regard  to  certain  changes  in
circumstances or other events that are isolated, nonrecurring and unusual.

Capital Resources

A strong  capital  position is important to the continued  profitability  of the
Company and promotes  depositor and investor  confidence.  The Company's capital
provides a basis for future growth and  expansion  and also provides  additional
protection against unexpected losses.

Additional  sources  of  capital  would  come from  retained  earnings  from the
operations  of the  Company  and  from  the  sale of  additional  common  stock.
Management has no plans to offer additional common stock at this time.

The Company's total  risk-based  capital ratio was 19.12% at September 30, 1999.
The  Company's  risk based  capital ratio is almost double the 10.00% ratio that
Federal regulators use as the "well capitalized" threshold.  This is the current
criteria  which the FDIC  uses in  determining  the  lowest  insurance  rate for
deposit  insurance.  The Company's  risk-based capital ratio is more than double
the 8.00% limit which determines whether a company is "adequately  capitalized".
Under these rules, the Company could significantly increase its assets and still
comply with these capital  requirements  without the necessity of increasing its
equity capital.

Year 2000 Compliance

The "Year 2000" (Y2K) issue is the result of computer  programs  and files being
written using a two digit as opposed to a four digit year field.  Programs which
use two digit year fields in comparing  dates,  sorting  dates or using dates in
calculations can result in system failures or significant miscalculations if not
corrected.

The Company's  formal  written Y2K  Readiness  Plan was developed in early 1998,
although much systems and programming  work on existing and new systems had been
accomplished  long  before  that  date.  The  plan  has  awareness,  assessment,
renovation,  validation  and  implementation  phases.  The Company has completed
every phase of the plan as of  September  30,  1999.  All mission  critical  and
non-mission critical software systems of the Company have undergone  renovation,
testing, implementation and validation and are Y2K ready.

Most of the  Company's  software  used  in  conducting  its  business  has  been
internally  developed,  although the Company  does license a minor  portion from
third party software vendors.  The Company has developed a comprehensive list of
all software and hardware in use within the organization, as well as all systems
that may be affected  by computer  chip  failures  such as heating and  lighting
systems, elevators, etc.

The Company has been  closely  tracking  the  progress  each vendor is making in
resolving the problems  associated  with Y2K.  Testing has been  completed  with
third parties such as MasterCard and Visa,  MAC ATM Network and Federal  Reserve
FedLine.

Additionally,  the Company has  contacted  its major  borrowers to determine the
level of progress each has made in addressing the Y2K problem.

The  Company  has  developed,  and the Board of  Directors  has  adopted,  a Y2K
Contingency  Plan. The overall  Contingency  Plan  identifies the Company's core
business processes and analyzes the effect of failures of systems on the ability
to perform the various business  processes.  It further identifies those systems
which are mission  critical - those which the Company cannot do without for more
than a day or two,  and those  that the  Company  can  alternately  process on a
manual basis or not process at all for a week or two - non-mission critical. For
all systems,  an Extensive  Business  Resumption  Contingency  Plan provides for
alternative  methods  of  doing  business  in the  unlikely  event  of a  system
malfunction.

The Contingency Plan also covers what the Company will do if electricity  and/or
communications  fail. It also  provides for coverage of  additional  funding and
cash needs which may arise before and after the century date change and provides
for the possible  temporary  closing of offices due to loss of security systems,
electricity, etc.

The  responsibility  of validating the Contingency  Plan lies with the Company's
Director  of Internal  Audit.  Although  completed,  the  Contingency  Plan is a
document that will be continually  updated as systems change in the remainder of
this year.  Furthermore,  the  Contingency  Plan will  continue to be tested and
validated during the fourth quarter of this year.

The total cost for resolving  the Y2K issues was  $120,000,  as of September 30,
1999. These costs have been, to a large degree,  absorbed as ordinary  operating
expenses  as most of the work was  performed  by  regular  Company  staff.  This
concentrated  effort  has  forced  the  postponement  of a number  of  projects,
including,  but not limited to, fully implementing the new continuous form laser
printer, image processing and Internet access.
