                       MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS


GENERAL

         The Private  Securities  Litigation  Act of 1995  contains  safe harbor
provisions regarding forward-looking  statements.  When used in this discussion,
the words  "believes,"  "anticipates,"  "contemplates,"  "expects,"  and similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements
are subject to certain risks and uncertainties  which could cause actual results
to differ materially from those projected. Those risks and uncertainties include
changes in  interest  rates,  the  ability to control  costs and  expenses,  the
opening of additional branch locations, general economic conditions,  government
policies  and  actions of  regulatory  authorities.  The Company  undertakes  no
obligation  to publicly  release the results of any  revisions to those  forward
looking  statements which may be made to reflect events or  circumstances  after
the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

OVERVIEW

         Nittany  Financial Corp.  ("Nittany") is a holding company organized in
1997 for the purpose of  establishing a de novo community bank in State College,
Pennsylvania.   The  business   operations  of  Nittany  include  two  operating
subsidiaries, Nittany Bank and Nittany Asset Management, Inc. (collectively, the
"Company").

         On April 24, 2000, the Company entered into a lease agreement for a new
branch office to be located in State  College at 129 Rolling Ridge Drive,  which
began operations on August 7, 2000. The Company  currently  estimates that costs
in connection with  renovations to this new branch location to be  approximately
$140,000.

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

         During the first six months of 2000, the Company has experienced strong
growth with total assets  increasing  $5,782,000 or 11.6% to $55,826,000 at June
30, 2000. This growth was fueled by a steady increase in net loans of $7,813,000
that  was  funded  primarily  through  increases  in time and  savings  deposits
totaling  $5,703,000,  as well as the  receipt  of  aggregate  net  proceeds  of
$1,402,000 from the common stock offering.

         The decrease in cash and cash  equivalents  was  primarily used to meet
daily  operating  needs,  as well as  provided  funding  for loan  originations.
Management maintains a

                                       9
<PAGE>

level of cash  equivalents  which is desirable  for meeting the normal cash flow
requirements  of its  customers  for the  funding  of  loans  and  repayment  of
deposits.

         The  increase in net loans  resulted  from the  economic  health of the
Company's  market area and the strategic,  service-oriented  marketing  approach
taken by management  to meet the lending  needs of the area.  Of this  increase,
approximately  94.6%,  or  $7,453,000  was comprised of loans secured by various
forms of real estate.  The real estate  lending growth  included  $3,864,000 and
$1,366,000  in  owner  occupied  and  non-owner   occupied   one-to-four  family
mortgages, respectively, and $1,868,000 in commercial real estate.

         At June 30, 2000, the Company's  allowance for loan losses approximated
$258,000 as compared to $187,000 at December  31, 1999.  Management  continually
evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses,  which  encompasses the
overall risk characteristics of the various portfolio segments,  past experience
with losses, the impact of economic conditions on borrowers,  industry standards
since the Bank is a denovo bank and other relevant  factors that may come to the
attention of management.  Although the Company  maintains its allowance for loan
losses at a level that it  considers  to be adequate to provide for the inherent
risk of loss in its loan portfolio, there can be no assurance that future losses
will not be required in future  periods.  Management  may increase the allowance
for loan losses based upon its  quarterly  internal risk  analysis.  At June 30,
2000, loans past due thirty days or more totaled $4,000.

         Due to the  continued  marketing  efforts of promoting the opening of a
new community bank in the State College area,  deposits increased  $5,290,000 or
14.8% to $41,073,000 at June 30, 2000. This increase was primarily the result of
increases in time and savings deposits of $4,860,000 and $843,000, respectively.
The Company  completed a  successful  effort to lengthen the  maturities  of its
deposit base by growing one to three year  certificates of deposit by $5,333,000
for  the  period  while  partially  being  offset  by a  decline  in  short-term
certificates of $1,695,000.

         Stockholder's  equity increased $635,000 to $5,866,000 at June 30, 2000
from  $5,231,000  at December  31, 1999  primarily  as a result of net income of
$82,000 and the sale of 52,913 shares of common stock  resulting in net proceeds
of $581,000.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The  Company  recorded  net income of $46,000 and $82,000 for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2000,  respectively,  as compared to a net loss of
$70,000 and $153,000, respectively, for the same periods in 1999.
 .
         The $115,000 increase in net income for the three months ended June 30,
2000, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 1999, was  attributable  to
an increase in net interest  income of $207,000  and an increase in  noninterest
income of  $24,000.  Partially  offsetting  these  favorable  variances  between
quarters  were  increases  in  noninterest  expense and the  provision  for loan
losses, of $78,000 and $38,000, respectively.


                                       10

         The  $235,000  increase in net income for the six months ended June 30,
2000, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1999, was  attributable to an
increase  in net  interest  income of $411,000  and an  increase in  noninterest
income of  $57,000.  Partially  offsetting  these  favorable  variances  between
quarters  were  increases  in  noninterest  expense and the  provision  for loan
losses, of $162,000 and $71,000, respectively.

         Net interest  income for the three and  six-months  ended June 30, 2000
was  $416,000  and  $788,000 as compared to $210,000  and  $377,000 for the same
periods  ended 1999.  Interest  income  increased  $489,000 and $991,000 for the
three and  six-months  ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the prior year.  These
increases can be attributed  primarily to increases in interest  earned on loans
receivable  and  investment  securities  of $434,000 and $42,000,  for the three
months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,  respectively,  and $865,000 and  $121,000,
for the six-months  ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,  respectively.  Although there
was an increase in general  interest rate levels during these periods,  interest
income was primarily driven by increases in average balances of interest-earning
assets.  The average  balance of loans  outstanding  increased  $20.3 million to
$33.6 million and $20.9  million to $31.1  million for the three and  six-months
ended June 30, 2000, respectively,  compared to $13.3 million and $10.5 million,
respectively,  for the same  periods in the prior year.  The average  balance of
investment  securities  increased  $419,000 to $17.2 million and $2.0 million to
$17.3 million for the three and  six-months  ended June 30, 2000,  respectively,
compared to $16.7 million and $15.3  million,  for the same periods in the prior
year. The yield on interest  earning  assets  increased from 6.18% and 6.32% for
the three and six-months ended June 30, 1999,  respectively,  to 7.57% and 7.40%
for the same periods ended in 2000, primarily due to an increasing interest rate
environment.

         Interest  expense  increased  $282,000  and  $580,000 for the three and
six-months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the prior year.  Interest incurred
on deposits  increased  $219,000  and  $436,000 to $453,000 and $851,000 for the
three and six-months ended June 30, 2000,  compared to $234,000 and $414,000 for
the same periods in the prior year. This increase was primarily  attributable to
an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits of $16.7 million
and  $17.5  million  to $37.6  million  and  $36.1  million  for the  three  and
six-months  ended June 30,  2000,  respectively,  compared to $20.9  million and
$18.6 million,  respectively,  for the same periods in the prior year.  Interest
incurred on  borrowed  funds  increased  $64,000  and  $144,000 to $139,000  and
$269,000  for the  three  and  six-months  ended  June 30,  2000,  respectively,
compared to $75,000 and $125,000  for the same  periods in the prior year.  This
increase was  primarily  attributable  to an increase in the average  balance of
borrowed funds of $3.3 million and $3.4 million to $8.4 million and $8.5 million
for the three and six-months  ended June 30, 2000,  compared to $5.1 million for
the both  periods  in the prior  year.  This  increase  in  borrowed  funds is a
reflection of the increase in loans receivables,  as such funds were utilized to
provide for loan growth.  The cost of funds  increased  from 4.75% and 4.56% for
the three and six-months ended June 30, 1999,  respectively,  to 5.15% and 5.02%
for the same periods ended in 2000, primarily due to an increasing interest rate
environment.

         Total  noninterest  income for the three and six-months ending June 30,
2000  increased  $24,000 and $57,000 to $62,000 and $126,000,  respectively,  as
compared to $38,000 and $69,000 for the same  periods  ended 1999.  Non-interest
income  items are  primarily  comprised  of normal  service  charges and fees on
deposits,  along with fee income derived from ATM surcharges.  Such amounts have
progressively  increased  during each quarter as the number of deposit  accounts
and volume of related transactions have increased.

         Total noninterest  expenses  increased $78,000 and $162,000 to $395,000
and $761,000  for the three and  six-months  ended June 30, 2000,  respectively,
from  $318,000 and $599,000,  respectively,  for the same periods ended 1999. In
the prior year periods, Nittany Bank had been in operation for less than a year.
The  increase  in total  noninterest  expenses  for the  current  year three and
six-month  periods is  primarily  related to  operating  a larger  organization.
Higher professional fees for the prior year three and six-month periods were the
result of the Company's new operations.
