Item 1.           Business

General

     Abigail   Adams   National    Bancorp,    Inc.   (the   "Company")   is   a
Delaware-chartered  bank holding  company which  conducts  business  through its
wholly-owned  bank  subsidiary,  The Adams National Bank (the "Bank").  The Bank
serves  the  nation's  capital  through  five  full-service  offices  located in
Washington,  D.C. The Company is subject to regulation by the Board of Governors
of the Federal  Reserve  System (the  "Federal  Reserve  Board").  The Company's
assets  consist  primarily  of shares  of the  Bank's  common  stock and cash it
receives from the Bank in the form of dividends or other capital  distributions.
At December  31,  1999,  the Company had  consolidated  assets of  $141,770,000,
deposits of  $122,570,000  and  stockholders'  equity of  $14,459,000.  The Bank
exceeds all applicable  regulatory  capital  requirements.  See "Supervision and
Regulation."

     The Bank was founded in 1977 as a national bank. Its deposits are federally
insured to the maximum amount permitted by law.

     The executive  office of both the Company and the Bank is located at 1627 K
Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20006. The telephone number is (202) 466-4090.

Market Area

     The Bank draws  most of its  customer  deposits  and  conducts  most of its
lending  activities from and within the Washington,  D.C.  metropolitan  region,
including  suburban  Virginia  and  Maryland.  The nation's  capital  attracts a
significant  number of businesses of all sizes,  professional  corporations  and
national   nonprofit   organizations.   The  Bank  actively   solicits   banking
relationships with these firms and organizations,  as well as their professional
staff,  and with the  significant  population of high net worth  individuals who
live and work in the region.

Services of the Bank

     The Bank is a  community  oriented  financial  institution  offering a full
range of banking services to its customers.  The Bank attracts deposits from the
general  public and  historically  has used such  deposits,  together with other
funds to provide a broad  level of  commercial  and retail  banking  services in
Washington, D.C. and the surrounding communities.

     The  services  offered  by the Bank can be broadly  characterized  as being
commercial or retail in nature.  Commercial services offered by the Bank include
offering a variety of commercial real estate and commercial business loans, cash
management services, letters of credit and collateralized repurchase agreements.
Commercial business loans are typically made on a secured basis to corporations,
partnerships  and individual  businesses.  To a lesser  extent,  the Bank offers
consumer loans to its retail customers.  The Bank's retail banking services also
include  offering a variety of deposit account  products  including  transaction
accounts,  money  market  accounts,   certificates  of  deposit  and  Individual
Retirement Accounts. The Bank uses funds it has on hand as well as borrowings in
order to fund its lending and investment activities.

     The  Bank has  automated  teller  machine  access  to the  MOST and  CIRRUS
systems.  The Bank  also  offers  its  customers  computer  banking  and 24 hour
telephone banking services, VISA credit card services and custodial services.

Lending Activities

     The Bank  provides a range of  commercial  and retail  lending  services to
individuals,  small to  medium-  sized  businesses,  professional  corporations,
nonprofit organizations and other organizations. These services include, but are
not  limited to,  commercial  business  loans,  commercial  real  estate  loans,
renovation and mortgage loans, loan  participations,  consumer loans,  revolving
lines of credit and  letters of credit,  with an  emphasis  on  commercial  real
estate lending.  Consumer lending primarily consists of automobile,  home equity
and  personal  loans made on a direct,  secured  basis.  Real  estate  loans are
originated for both commercial and consumer  purposes.  To a lesser extent,  the
Bank  originates   one-to-four   family   mortgage  or  residential   loans  and
construction  loans.  The Bank  offers  loans  which have fixed rates as well as
loans with rates which adjust periodically.  At December 31, 1999, approximately
61% of the Bank's total loan  portfolio was  comprised of loans with  adjustable
rates.

     The Bank provides financing to nonprofit organizations for construction and
renovation of local headquarters,  working capital lines of credit and equipment
financing.  Current nonprofit customers of the Bank include  organizations which
focus on issues relating to children's rights, community housing,  education and
health care.  At December 31,  1999,  commercial  and real estate loans to these
customers totaled $1,175,000.

     Commercial  and real  estate  lending is  performed  by the Bank's  Lending
Division,  which is comprised of five loan  officers and a credit  analyst.  The
Treasury  Division  includes  the  Loan  Operations'  staff  of  five,  who  are
responsible for preparing loan documents, recording and processing new loans and
loan payments,  ensuring  compliance with regulatory  requirements,  and working
with the Lending Division,  in order to ensure the timely receipt of all initial
and ongoing  loan  documentation  and the prompt  reporting  of any  exceptions.
Credit analysis on loans is performed by either  individual loan officers or the
credit analyst,  using a credit analysis  computer  program,  which provides not
only the flexibility necessary to analyze loans but also the structure to ensure
that all documentation requirements are appropriately met.

     Policies and procedures  have been  established by the Bank to promote safe
and sound lending.  Loan officers have individual  lending  authorities based on
the  individual's  seniority  and  experience.  Loans in  excess  of  individual
officers' lending limits are presented to the Officers' Loan Committee  ("OLC"),
which meets  weekly,  and is comprised of all loan officers and the President of
the Bank. While a maximum of three loan officers may pool their loan authorities
to approve a loan,  most loans over $100,000 are brought to the OLC. The OLC has
authority  to approve  unsecured  loans up to $250,000  and secured  loans up to
$500,000.  Loans over  $250,000  on an  unsecured  basis and over  $500,000 on a
secured basis are brought to the Executive Loan Committee  ("ELC"),  which meets
approximately twice per month. The ELC is comprised of two outside directors and
the President of the Bank. In addition to approving  new loans,  this  Committee
approves  the  restructuring  of  existing  loans,  reviews  past due  loans and
approves the charge-off of loans.

</TABLE>

Commercial Business Lending

     The Bank  provides a wide range of  commercial  business  loans,  including
lines of credit for working capital  purposes and term loans for the acquisition
of equipment  and other  purposes.  In most cases,  the Bank has  collateralized
these  loans  and/or  taken  personal   guarantees  to  help  assure  repayment.
Collateral for these loans generally  includes accounts  receivable,  inventory,
equipment and real estate.  Terms of commercial  business loans  generally range
from one year to three years.  These loans often require that borrowers maintain
certain levels of deposits with the Bank as  compensating  balances.  Commercial
business  lending  generally  involves  greater risk than  residential  mortgage
lending  and  involves  risks  that are  different  from those  associated  with
residential,   commercial  and  multi-family   real  estate  lending.   Although
commercial  business loans are often  collateralized by real estate,  equipment,
inventory,  accounts  receivable or other business  assets,  the  liquidation of
collateral in the event of a borrower  default is often not a sufficient  source
of repayment  because accounts  receivable may be uncollectible  and inventories
and equipment may be obsolete or of limited use. The primary  repayment risk for
commercial  loans is the failure of the  business  due to economic or  financial
factors. As of December 31, 1999, commercial loans totaled $28,646,000.

     The Bank also offers  SBA-guaranteed  loans which provide  better terms and
more  flexible  repayment  schedules  than  conventional  financing.  As lending
requirements of small  businesses  grow to exceed the Bank's lending limit,  the
Bank has the  ability  to sell  participations  in these  larger  loans to other
financial institutions.  The Bank believes that such participations will help to
preserve lending relationships while providing a high level of customer service.
At December 31, 1999, SBA-guaranteed loans totaled $4,745,000.

Real Estate Lending

     At December 31, 1999,  the Bank's real estate loan  portfolio  consisted of
commercial real estate  mortgages  totaling  $50,752,000,  and residential  real
estate  mortgages  totaling  $20,991,000.  The  majority  of  these  loans  have
adjustable  rates.  Commercial real estate loans are generally for terms of five
years and amortize over a 15- and 25-year  period.  Commercial real estate loans
are generally  originated  in amounts up to 75% loan to value of the  underlying
collateral.

     The majority of the $6,540,000 in loans classified as construction and land
development  loans at  December  31, 1999 are  primarily  for  construction  and
renovation  of  commercial  real  estate  properties.   Construction   financing
generally  is  considered  to  involve  a  higher  degree  of risk of loss  than
long-term financing on improved, occupied real estate. Multi-family and


                                       4

<PAGE>


     commercial real estate lending  involves  significant  additional  risks as
com- pared to one- to four-family  residential lending. For example,  such loans
typically  involve  large loans to single  borrowers or related  borrowers.  The
payment  experience  on such  loans is  typically  dependent  on the  successful
operation of the project,  and these risks can be significantly  affected by the
supply  and  demand  conditions  in  the  market  for  commercial  property  and
multi-family  residential  units.  To minimize these risks,  the Bank limits the
aggregate  amount of outstanding  construction  loans,  and generally makes such
loans only in its market  area and to  borrowers  with which it has  substantial
experience or who are otherwise well known to the Bank. It is the Bank's current
practice to obtain personal guarantees and current financial statements from all
principals  obtaining  commercial  real  estate  loans.  The Bank  also  obtains
appraisals on each property in accordance with applicable regulations.

Consumer Lending

     The  Bank's  consumer  lending  includes  loans  for motor  vehicles,  home
improvement,   home  equity,   small  personal  credit  lines  and  credit  card
borrowings.  Consumer  loans  generally  involve  more risk than first  mortgage
residential  and  commercial  real estate loans.  Repossessed  collateral  for a
defaulted  loan  may  not  provide  an  adequate  source  of  repayment  of  the
outstanding loan balance as a result of damage,  loss or  depreciation,  and the
remaining  deficiency  often does not  warrant  further  substantial  collection
efforts against the borrower. In addition, loan collections are dependent on the
borrower's  continuing financial stability.  Further, the application of various
federal and state laws,  including  federal and state  bankruptcy and insolvency
laws,  may limit the amount which can be  recovered.  In  underwriting  consumer
loans,  the Bank considers the  borrower's  credit  history,  an analysis of the
borrower's  income,  expenses and ability to repay the loan and the value of the
collateral. At December 31, 1999, consumer loans totaled $2,135,000.

Delinquencies and Classified Assets

     Collection  Procedures.  Outstanding  loans are reviewed on a weekly basis.
When a loan  becomes 10 days past due,  loan  officers  attempt  to contact  the
borrower.  Generally,  loans that are 30 days  delinquent will receive a default
notice from the Bank.  With respect to consumer  loans,  the Bank will  commence
efforts to repossess the collateral  after the loan becomes 30 days  delinquent.
Generally, after 90 days the Bank will commence legal action.

     Loans Past Due and  Nonperforming  Assets.  Loans are reviewed on a regular
basis and are placed on nonaccrual  status when,  in the opinion of  management,
the  collection  of  additional  interest  is  doubtful.  Loans  are  placed  on
nonaccrual status when either principal or interest is 90 days or more past due.
Interest accrued and unpaid at the time a loan is placed on a nonaccrual  status
is  reversed  from  interest  income.   At  December  31,  1999,  the  Bank  had
nonperforming  loans  of  $78,000  and a ratio of  nonperforming  loans to total
assets of 0.06%.


     Allowance for Loan Losses.  The  allowance  for loan losses is  established
through a provision for loan losses based on management's evaluation of the risk
inherent in the loan portfolio and current economic conditions.  Such evaluation
also  includes  a review of all loans on which  full  collectibility  may not be
reasonably assured,  considers among other matters, the estimated net realizable
value  or the fair  value of the  underlying  collateral,  economic  conditions,
historical loan loss  experience,  geographic  concentrations  and other factors
that warrant  recognition in providing for an adequate loan loss  allowance.  In
addition,  various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination
process,  periodically review the Bank's allowance for loan losses and valuation
of other real estate owned. Such agencies may require us to recognize  additions
to the allowance based on their judgment about information  available to them at
the time of their  examination.  At December 31, 1999,  the total  allowance was
$1,137,000,  which amounted to 1.04% of total loans and 14.55% of  nonperforming
loans.  Management considers whether the allowance should be adjusted to protect
against  risks in the loan  portfolio.  Management  will continue to monitor and
modify the level of the  allowance  for loan losses in order to maintain it at a
level which management considers adequate to provide for potential loan losses.

     For the year ended  December 31, 1999,  gross  interest  income which would
have been  recorded  had the  non-accruing  loans of  $70,000  been  current  in
accordance with their original terms amounted to $18,000.  The amounts that were
included  in  interest  income on such  loans  was  $23,000  for the year  ended
December 31, 1999. For further  information  regarding the Bank's  allowance for
loan  losses and asset  quality see  "Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of
Financial  Condition  and  Results of  Operations--Asset  Quality" in the Annual
Report to  Shareholders  and Note 4 to the Notes to the  Consolidated  Financial
Statements.

Investment Activities

     The Bank's investment  portfolio consists of obligations of U.S. Government
agencies and corporations,  mortgage-backed  securities,  equity securities, and
obligations  of  states  and  political  subdivisions.  At  December  31,  1999,
investments in obligations of U.S. Government agencies and corporations  totaled
$15,833,000 of which  $12,834,000  were classified as available for sale.  Total
investment  securities  were  $16,761,000  at  December  31,  1999.  For further
information  regarding the Bank's  investments see "Management's  Discussion and
Analysis  of  Financial  Condition  and  Results  of   Operations--Analysis   of
Investments" in the Annual Report to Shareholders.

Deposits

     The Bank  offers a variety of  deposit  accounts  with a range of  interest
rates and terms.  The flow of  deposits  is  influenced  by a variety of factors
including  general  economic  conditions,  changes in market  rates,  prevailing
interest rates and  competition.  The Bank relies on competitive  pricing of its
deposit products and customer  service to attract and retain  deposits,  however
market  interest  rates and rates  offered by competing  financial  institutions
significantly affect the Bank's ability to attract and retain deposits.

     The following table sets forth the dollar amount of deposits in the various
types of deposit programs offered by the Bank as of the dates indicated.

Competition

     The  Bank  faces  strong   competition  among  financial   institutions  in
Washington,  D.C., Northern Virginia and suburban Maryland for both deposits and
loans. Principal competitors include other community commercial

                                        7

<PAGE>



banks and larger  financial  institutions  with  branches in the Bank's  service
area.  Intense   competition  is  expected  to  continue  as  bank  mergers  and
acquisitions of smaller banks by larger  institutions  in the  Washington,  D.C.
metropolitan region may be expected to continue for the foreseeable future.

     The  primary   factors  in  competing  for  deposits  are  interest  rates,
personalized services, the quality and range of financial services,  convenience
of office  locations and office hours.  Competition for deposits comes primarily
from other commercial banks, savings  associations,  credit unions, money market
funds and other  investment  alternatives.  The primary factors in competing for
loans are  interest  rates,  loan  origination  fees,  the  quality and range of
lending  services  and  personalized  services.   Competition  for  loans  comes
primarily from other commercial banks,  savings  associations,  mortgage banking
firms,  credit  unions  and  other  financial  intermediaries.  The  Bank  faces
competition  for  deposits and loans  throughout  its market areas not only from
local  institutions but also from out-of-state  financial  intermediaries  which
have  opened loan  production  offices or which  solicit  deposits in its market
areas. Many of the financial intermediaries operating in the Bank's market areas
offer certain  services,  such as trust,  investment and  international  banking
services,  which  the Bank  does not  offer.  Additionally,  banks  with  larger
capitalization  and  financial  intermediaries  not  subject to bank  regulatory
restrictions  have larger lending limits and are thereby able to serve the needs
of larger customers.

     In order to  compete  with other  financial  services  providers,  the Bank
principally  relies upon local promotional  activities,  personal  relationships
established  by  officers,  directors  and  employees  with its  customers,  and
specialized  services  tailored to meet its customers' needs. In those instances
where  the Bank is unable  to  accommodate  a  customer's  needs,  the Bank will
arrange for those services to be provided by its correspondents.

Employees

     At December 31, 1999, the Company  employed 52 people on a full time basis.
The employees are not  represented by a union and  management  believes that its
relations with its employees are good.

Supervision and Regulation

     The commercial  banking  business is not only affected by general  economic
conditions  but is also  influenced  by the monetary and fiscal  policies of the
federal  government and the policies of regulatory  agencies,  particularly  the
Federal Reserve Board.  The Federal Reserve Board implements  national  monetary
policies  by its  open-market  operations  in  U.S.  Government  securities,  by
adjusting the required level of reserves for financial  institutions  subject to
its  reserve  requirements  and by varying  the  discount  rates  applicable  to
borrowings by depository institutions.  The actions of the Federal Reserve Board
in these areas influence the growth of bank loans,  investments and deposits and
also affect interest rates charged on loans and paid on deposits. The nature and
impact of any future changes in monetary policies cannot be predicted.

     Bank  holding  companies  and banks are  extensively  regulated  under both
federal  and state  law.  Set forth  below is a summary  description  of certain
provisions of certain laws which relate to the regulation of the Company and the
Bank.  The  description  does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its
entirety by reference to the applicable laws and regulations.

The Company

     The Company, as a registered bank holding company, is subject to regulation
under the Bank  Holding  Company  Act of 1956,  as amended  (the  "BHCA").  Such
regulations  include prior approval of Company affiliates and subsidiaries.  The
Company is  required  to file  quarterly  reports  and annual  reports  with the
Federal  Reserve Board and such  additional  information as the Federal  Reserve
Board may require  pursuant to the BHCA.  The Federal  Reserve Board may conduct
examinations of the Company and its subsidiaries.


                                        8

<PAGE>



     The  Federal  Reserve  Board may  require  that the  Company  terminate  an
activity or terminate control of or liquidate or divest certain  subsidiaries or
affiliates  when the Federal  Reserve Board believes the activity or the control
of the subsidiary or affiliate  constitutes a significant  risk to the financial
safety,  soundness or stability of any of its banking subsidiaries.  The Federal
Reserve  Board also has the  authority  to regulate  provisions  of certain bank
holding  company  debt,  including  authority  to impose  interest  ceilings and
reserve requirements on such debt. Under certain circumstances, the Company must
file written notice and obtain  approval from the Federal Reserve Board prior to
purchasing or redeeming its equity securities.

     Under the BHCA and regulations adopted by the Federal Reserve Board, a bank
holding  company and its nonbanking  subsidiaries  are prohibited from requiring
certain tie-in arrangements in connection with any extension of credit, lease or
sale of property or furnishing of services.  Further, the Company is required by
the Federal Reserve Board to maintain certain levels of capital.

     The Company is required to obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve
Board for the acquisition of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of any class
of voting  securities  or  substantially  all of the  assets of any bank or bank
holding  company.  Prior approval of the Federal  Reserve Board is also required
for the merger or consolidation of the Company and another bank holding company.

     The  Company  is  prohibited  by the BHCA,  except in  certain  statutorily
prescribed instances,  from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of
more than 5% of the outstanding  voting shares of any company that is not a bank
or bank holding  company and from engaging  directly or indirectly in activities
other  than  those of  banking,  managing  or  controlling  banks or  furnishing
services  to its  subsidiaries.  However,  the  Company,  subject  to the  prior
approval of the Federal Reserve Board, may engage in any activities,  or acquire
shares of companies engaged in activities that are deemed by the Federal Reserve
Board to be so closer, related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to
be a proper incident thereto.

     Under Federal Reserve Board regulations, a bank holding company is required
to serve as a source of  financial  and  managerial  strength to its  subsidiary
banks and may not  conduct its  operations  in an unsafe or unsound  manner.  In
addition,  it is the Federal  Reserve Board's policy that in serving as a source
of strength to its subsidiary  banks, a bank holding  company should stand ready
to use available  resources to provide  adequate capital funds to its subsidiary
banks during  periods of financial  stress or adversity and should  maintain the
financial   flexibility  and  capital-raising   capacity  to  obtain  additional
resources for assisting its subsidiary  banks. A bank holding  company's failure
to meet its obligations to serve as a source of strength to its subsidiary banks
will  generally be considered  by the Federal  Reserve Board to be an unsafe and
unsound  banking  practice  or  a  violation  of  the  Federal  Reserve  Board's
regulations or both.  This doctrine has become known as the "source of strength"
doctrine. The validity of the source of strength doctrine has been and is likely
to continue to be the subject of litigation-until  definitively  resolved by the
courts or by Congress.

The Bank

     The  Bank,  as a  national  banking  association,  is  subject  to  primary
supervision,  examination and regulation by the Office of the Comptroller of the
Currency  (the"OCC").  If, as a result of an  examination  of the Bank,  the OCC
should determine that the financial condition, capital resources, asset quality,
earnings  prospects,  management,  liquidity  or  other  aspects  of the  Bank's
operations are unsatisfactory or that the Bank or its management is violating or
has violated any law or regulation,  various  remedies are available to the OCC.
Such  remedies  include the power to enjoin  "unsafe or unsound  practices,"  to
require  affirmative  action  to  correct  any  conditions  resulting  from  any
violation of law or unsafe or unsound practice, to issue an administrative order
that can be judicially  enforced,  to direct an increase in capital, to restrict
the  growth  of the Bank,  to assess  civil  monetary  penalties,  and to remove
officers and directors.  The FDIC has similar enforcement authority, in addition
to its  authority to  terminate a bank's  deposit  insurance,  in the absence of
action  by the OCC and upon a finding  that a bank is in an  unsafe  or  unsound
condition, is engaging in unsafe or unsound activities, or that its conduct

                                        9

<PAGE>



poses a risk to the deposit  insurance fund or may prejudice the interest of its
depositors. The Bank is not subject to any such actions by the OCC or the FDIC.

     The  deposits  of the Bank are insured by the FDIC in the manner and to the
extent  provided  by law.  For  this  protection,  the  Bank  pays a  semiannual
statutory assessment. Various other requirements and restrictions under the laws
of the United States affect the  operations  of the Bank.  Federal  statutes and
regulations relate to many aspects of the Bank's operations,  including reserves
against  deposits,  interest  rates  payable on  deposits,  loans,  investments,
mergers and acquisitions,  borrowings,  dividends,  locations of branch offices,
capital  requirements  and  disclosure  obligations to depositors and borrowers.
Further, the Bank is required to maintain certain levels of capital.

Restrictions on Transfers of Funds to the Company by the Bank

     The Company is a legal  entity  separate and  distinct  from the Bank.  The
Company's ability to pay cash dividends is limited by Delaware corporate law. In
addition,  the  prior  approval  of the  OCC is  required  if the  total  of all
dividends  declared  by the Bank in any  calendar  year  exceeds  the Bank's net
profits (as  defined) for that year  combined  with its retained net profits (as
defined) for the preceding two years, less any transfers to surplus.

     The OCC also has authority to prohibit the Bank from engaging in activities
that, in the OCC's opinion, constitute unsafe or unsound practices in conducting
its business. It is possible, depending upon the financial condition of the bank
in question  and other  factors,  that the OCC could  assert that the payment of
dividends or other payments might, under some  circumstances,  be such an unsafe
or  unsound  practice.  Further,  the OCC and the  Federal  Reserve  Board  have
established  guidelines with respect to the maintenance of appropriate levels of
capital by banks or bank holding companies under their jurisdiction.  Compliance
with the standards set forth in such guidelines and the restrictions that are or
may be imposed  under the prompt  corrective  action  provisions  of federal law
could limit the amount of dividends which the Bank or the Company may pay.

     The Bank is subject to certain  restrictions  imposed by federal law on any
extensions  of credit to, or the  issuance of a guarantee or letter of credit on
behalf of, the Company or other  affiliates,  the purchase of or  investments in
stock or other securities  thereof,  the taking of such securities as collateral
for loans and the  purchase of assets of the Company or other  affiliates.  Such
restrictions  prevent the Company and such other  affiliates from borrowing from
the Bank unless the loans are secured by  marketable  obligations  of designated
amounts.  Further,  such secured loans and  investments by the Bank to or in the
Company or to or in any other  affiliate is limited to 10% of the Bank's capital
and surplus  (as  defined by federal  regulations)  and such  secured  loans and
investments  are limited,  in the  aggregate,  to 20% of the Bank's  capital and
surplus  (as  defined  by  federal  regulations).   Additional  restrictions  on
transactions  with  affiliates  may be  imposed  on the Bank  under  the  prompt
corrective action provisions of federal law.

Capital Standards

     The  Federal  Reserve  Board and the OCC have  adopted  risk-based  minimum
capital  guidelines  intended to provide a measure of capital that  reflects the
degree of risk  associated  with a banking  organization's  operations  for both
transactions reported on the balance sheet as assets and transactions, which are
recorded as off balance  sheet items.  Under these  guidelines,  nominal  dollar
amounts of assets and credit  equivalent  amounts of off balance sheet items are
multiplied by one of several risk  adjustment  percentages,  which range from 0%
for assets with low credit risk, such as certain U.S. Treasury secures,  to 100%
for assets with relatively high credit risk, such as business loans.

     A banking organization's risk-based capital ratios are obtained by dividing
its qualifying capital by its total risk adjusted assets. The regulators measure
risk-adjusted  assets, which include off balance sheet items, against both total
qualifying  capital  (the sum of Tier 1 capital  and  limited  amounts of Tier 2
capital) and Tier 1 capital.  Tier 1 capital consists primarily of common stock,
retained earnings, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock

                                       10

<PAGE>



(cumulative  perpetual  preferred stock for bank holding companies) and minority
interests in certain  subsidiaries,  less most intangible assets. Tier 2 capital
may consist of a limited  amount of the  allowance  for possible  loan and lease
losses,  cumulative  preferred stock,  long-term preferred stock,  eligible term
subordinated  debt and certain other  instruments with some  characteristics  of
equity.  The inclusion of elements of Tier 2 capital is subject to certain other
requirements  and  limitations  of the  federal  banking  agencies.  The federal
banking  agencies  require  a  minimum  ratio of  qualifying  total  capital  to
risk-adjusted   assets  of  8%  and  a  minimum  ratio  of  Tier  1  capital  to
risk-adjusted  assets of 4%. In addition to the risk-based  guidelines,  federal
banking regulators require banking organizations to maintain a minimum amount of
Tier 1 capital to total assets, referred to as the leverage ratio.

     Only a well-capitalized depository institution may accept brokered deposits
without prior regulatory  approval.  Under FDIC  regulations,  an institution is
generally  considered  "well  capitalized" if it has a total risk- based capital
ratio of at least 10%, a Tier I risk-based  capital  ratio of at least 6%, and a
Tier I capital  (leverage) ratio of at least 5%. Federal law generally  requires
full-scope on-site annual examinations of all insured depository institutions by
the appropriate  federal bank regulatory  agency  although,  the examination may
occur at longer intervals for small well-capitalized or state chartered banks.

     Federally  supervised banks and savings associations are currently required
to report deferred tax assets in accordance with SFAS No. 109. See Note 8 of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.  The federal banking agencies issued
final  rules,  effective  April 1, 1995,  which limit the amount of deferred tax
assets that are allowable in computing an institution's regulatory capital.

     The  current   risk-based  capital  ratio  analysis   establishes   minimum
supervisory guidelines and standards. It does not evaluate all factors affecting
an organization's  financial condition.  Factors which are not evaluated include
(i) overall  interest rate exposure;  (ii) quality and level of earnings;  (iii)
investment  or  loan  portfolio  concentrations;   (iv)  quality  of  loans  and
investments; (v) the effectiveness of loan and investment policies; (vi) certain
risks arising from  nontraditional  activities  and (vii)  management's  overall
ability to monitor and control other  financial and operating  risks,  including
the risks presented by concentrations of credit and  nontraditional  activities.
The capital  adequacy  assessment  of federal  bank  regulators  will,  however,
continue to include analyses of the foregoing  considerations and in particular,
the level and  severity  of problem  and  classified  assets.  Market  risk of a
banking  organization--risk of loss stemming from movements in market prices--is
not  evaluated  under the current  risk-based  capital  ratio  analysis  (and is
therefore  analyzed by the bank  regulators  through a general  assessment of an
organization's  capital adequacy) unless trading activities constitute 10% of $1
billion or more of the assets of such organization. Such an organization (unless
exempted  by the banking  regulators)  and certain  other  banking  organization
designated by the banking  regulators  must,  beginning on or before  January 1,
1998,  include in its risk-based  capital ratio  analysis  charges for, and hold
capital  against,  general  market  risk of all  positions  held in its  trading
account and of foreign exchange and commodity  positions  wherever  located,  as
well as  against  specific  risk of debt and  equity  positions  located  in its
trading account.  Currently, the Company does not calculate a risk-based capital
charge for its market risk.

     Future changes in regulations or practices  could further reduce the amount
of capital  recognized  for  purposes of capital  adequacy.  Such a change could
affect the ability of the Bank to grow and could restrict the amount of profits,
if any, available for the payment of dividends.

Prompt Corrective Action and Other Enforcement Mechanisms

     Federal law requires each federal banking agency to take prompt  corrective
action to resolve the problems of insured depository institutions, including but
not  limited  to those that fall below one or more  prescribed  minimum  capital
ratios.  The law requires each federal banking agency to promulgate  regulations
defining  the  following  five   categories  in  which  an  insured   depository
institution  will be  placed,  based on the level of its  capital  ratios:  well
capitalized,    adequately    capitalized,    undercapitalized,    significantly
undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized. In September 1992, the federal
banking  agencies  issued  uniform  final  regulations  implementing  the prompt
corrective action provisions of federal law.

                                       11

<PAGE>



     An institution  that, based upon its capital levels, is classified as "well
capitalized,"  "adequately  capitalized" or "undercapitalized" may be treated as
though it were in the next lower  capital  category if the  appropriate  federal
banking agency,  after notice and  opportunity  for hearing,  determines that an
unsafe or unsound  condition  or an unsafe or  unsound  practice  warrants  such
treatment.  At each successive  lower capital  category,  an insured  depository
institution  is subject to more  restrictions.  The  federal  banking  agencies,
however,  may not treat an institution as "critically  undercapitalized"  unless
its capital ratio actually warrants such treatment.

     In  addition  to  restrictions  and  sanctions  imposed  under  the  prompt
corrective action provisions, commercial banking organizations may be subject to
potential  enforcement  actions by the federal  regulators for unsafe or unsound
practices in conducting  their  businesses or for  violations of any law,  rule,
regulation  or any  condition  imposed in  writing by the agency or any  written
agreement with the agency.  Enforcement  actions may include the imposition of a
conservator  or  receiver,  the issuance of a cease and desist order that can be
judicially enforced,  the termination of insurance of deposits (in the case of a
depository  institution),  the imposition of civil money penalties, the issuance
of  directives  to  increase  capital,  the  issuance  of  formal  and  informal
agreements,   the   issuance  of  removal   and   prohibition   orders   against
institution-affiliated  parties  and the  enforcement  of such  actions  through
injunctions or restraining  orders based upon a judicial  determination that the
agency would be harmed if such equitable relief was not granted.

Safety and Soundness Standards

     In July  1995,  the  federal  banking  agencies  adopted  final  guidelines
establishing  standards  for  safety and  soundness.  The  guidelines  set forth
operational and managerial standards relating to internal controls,  information
systems and internal audit systems,  loan  documentation,  credit  underwriting,
interest  rate  exposure,  asset  growth and  compensation,  fees and  benefits.
Guidelines  for asset  quality  and  earnings  standards  will be adopted in the
future.  The  guidelines  establish the safety and soundness  standards that the
agencies  will use to  identify  and  address  problems  at  insured  depository
institutions before capital becomes impaired.  If an institution fails to comply
with a safety and soundness standard, the appropriate federal banking agency may
require  the  institution  to  submit a  compliance  plan.  Failure  to submit a
compliance  plan or to  implement  an  accepted  plan may result in  enforcement
action.

Premiums for Deposit Insurance

     Federal law has established several mechanisms to increase funds to protect
deposits  insured by the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF")  administered  by the FDIC.
The FDIC is  authorized  to  borrow up to $30  billion  from the  United  States
Treasury;  up to 90% of the fair market value of assets of institutions acquired
by the FDIC as receiver from the Federal  Financing  Bank;  and from  depository
institutions  that are members of the BIF.  Any  borrowings  not repaid by asset
sales  are  to  be  repaid  through   insurance   premiums  assessed  to  member
institutions.  The result of these  provisions  is that the  assessment  rate on
deposits  of BIF  members  could  increase  in the  future.  The  FDIC  also has
authority to impose special assessments against insured deposits.

     The  FDIC  implemented  a final  risk-based  assessment  system,  effective
January 1, 1994, under which an institution's premium assessment is based on the
probability  that the deposit  insurance  fund will incur a loss with respect to
the  institution,  the likely amount of any such loss,  and the revenue needs of
the deposit insurance fund. On August 8, 1995, the FDIC issued final regulations
adopting an  assessment  rate  schedule  for BIF members of 4 to 31 basis points
effective  on June 1, 1995.  On November  14,  1995,  the FDIC  further  reduced
deposit  insurance  premiums to a range of 0 to 2 basis points effective for the
semi-annual period beginning January 1, 1996.

     Under the risk-based  assessment  system, a BIF member  institution such as
the Bank is categorized into one of three capital  categories (well capitalized,
adequately capitalized,  and undercapitalized) and one of three categories based
on supervisory evaluations by its primary federal regulator (in the Bank's case,
the FDIC). The three supervisory  categories are:  financially sound with only a
few minor  weaknesses  (Group A),  demonstrates  weaknesses that could result in
significant deterioration (Group B), and poses a substantial probability of loss

                                       12

<PAGE>



(Group  C).  The  capital  ratios  used by the FDIC to define  well-capitalized,
adequately  capitalized and  undercapitalized  are the same in the FDIC's prompt
corrective  action  regulations.  The Bank  was not  required  to pay a  deposit
insurance premium for 1998.

     In  addition to the payment of deposit  insurance  assessments,  depository
institutions are required to make quarterly  assessment  payments to the FDIC on
their  BIF  assessable  deposits,  which  will be paid  FICO to enable it to pay
interest  and certain  other  expenses on bonds which it issued  pursuant to the
Financing Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, as amended,
to facilitate  the resolution of failed  savings  associations.  Pursuant to the
Federal Home Loan Bank Act,  FICO,  with the  approval of the FDIC,  establishes
assessment rates based upon estimates of (i) expected operating  expenses,  case
resolution  expenditures and income of FICO; (ii) the effect of assessments upon
members' earnings and capital; and (iii) any other factors deemed appropriate by
it.  Assessment  rates  for  1998  were set at 1.2  basis  points  annually  for
BIF-assessable deposits, subject to quarterly review and adjustment.

Community Reinvestment Act

     The Bank is subject to the  provisions  of the Community  Reinvestment  Act
("CRA")  which  requires  banks to assess and help meet the credit  needs of the
community in which the bank operates. The OCC examines the Bank to determine its
level of compliance with CRA. The OCC and the Federal Reserve Board are required
to  consider  the  level of CRA  compliance  when  regulatory  applications  are
reviewed.

Interstate Banking and Branching

     Under the Riegel-Neal  Interstate  Banking and Branching  Efficiency Act of
1994, as amended (the  "Interstate  Act"),  beginning one year after the date of
enactment, a bank holding company that is adequately capitalized and managed may
obtain  approval  under the BHCA to acquire an existing  bank located in another
state generally without regard to state law prohibitions on such acquisitions. A
bank holding company,  however, can not be permitted to make such an acquisition
if, upon consummation, it would control (a) more than 10% of the total amount of
deposits of insured  depository  institutions in the United States or (b) 30% or
more of the  deposits  in the  state in which the bank is  located.  A state may
limit the percentage of total deposits that may be held in that state by any one
bank or  bank  holding  company  if  application  of such  limitation  does  not
discriminate  against out of state banks.  An out of state bank holding  company
may not acquire a state bank in existence for less than a minimum length of time
that may be prescribed by state law except that a state may not impose more than
a five year existence requirement. Since June 1, 1997 (and prior to that date in
some  instances),  banks  have been  able to expand  across  state  lines  where
qualifying  legislation  adopted by certain  states prior to that date prohibits
such interstate expansion.  Banks may also expand across state lines through the
acquisition  of an  individual  branch of a bank  located  in  another  state or
through the  establishment of a de novo branch in another state where the law of
the state in which the  branch is to be  acquired  or  established  specifically
authorizes such acquisition or de novo branch establishment.

Factors Affecting Future Results

     In addition to historical  information,  this Form 10-KSB includes  certain
forward  looking  statements  that  involve  risks  and  uncertainties  such  as
statements  of the  Company's  plans,  expectations  and unknown  outcomes.  The
Company's actual results could differ  materially from management  expectations.
Factors that could contribute to those differences  include, but are not limited
to, general economic  conditions,  legislative and regulatory changes,  monetary
and fiscal policies of the federal  government,  changes in tax policies,  rates
and regulations of federal and local tax authorities, changes in interest rates,
deposit flows, the cost of funds, demand for loan products, demand for financial
services, competition,  changes in the quality or composition of the Bank's loan
and investment portfolios, changes in ownership status resulting in, among other
things,  the loss of eligibility for  participation  in government and corporate
programs for minority and women-owned banks, change in accounting

estate of approximately  $622,000.  The Company  considers all of the properties
leased by the Bank to be suitable and adequate for their intended purposes.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

     Although  the  Bank,  from  time to time,  is  involved  in  various  legal
proceedings  in the  normal  course of  business,  there are no  material  legal
proceedings to which the Company or the Bank is a party or to which any of their
property is subject, except for the matter discussed below.

     On May  29,1998 a suit was filed in the Court of  Chancery  of the State of
Delaware by Rose Z. Thorman and Martha Burke as  custodian  for Holly  McMackin,
Jake  McMackin,  Ashtyn Talley and Casey Talley  against  Marshall T.  Reynolds,
Jeanne  D.  Hubbard,  Robert  H.  Shell,  Jr.  and  Ferris  Baker  Watts,  Inc.,
defendants,   and  Abigail  Adams  National  Bancorp,  Inc.,  nominal  defendant
asserting claims for individual,  derivative and class action for: (1) breach of
fiduciary  duties of loyalty and  disclosure;  (2) aiding and abetting breach of
fiduciary  duties;  and (3) tortious  interference with economic and contractual
relations.  The Company has hired Delaware  counsel and is vigorously  defending
this suit. A motion to dismiss this suit was filed on or before July 31, 1998 by
the Company and the  stockholders/directors.  The Court of Chancery  has granted
the plaintiffs leave to file an amended compliant. The plaintiffs have agreed to
dismiss Ferris Baker Watts, Inc. from the state action.  The Company is awaiting
the judge's ruling on the Motion to Dismiss.

     On June 8, 1998 a second suit was filed in United  States  District  Court,
District Court of Delaware by Rose Z. Thorman and Martha Burke, individually and
as custodian for Holly McMackin,  Jake McMackin,  Ashtyn Talley and Casey Talley
Plaintiffs  against the Company,  Nominal  Defendant  and Marshall T.  Reynolds,
Jeanne D. Hubbard, Robert H. Shell, Jr. and Ferris Baker Watts, Inc. The federal
action is based on the same facts underlying the State action,  and asserts both
derivative  claims on behalf of the bank and individual  claims on behalf of the
stockholders  of the Bank.  The  complaint  in the federal  action  alleges that
certain  stockholders/directors of the Bank, and Marshall T. Reynolds, Jeanne D.
Hubbard,  Robert H. Shell,  Jr., as well as the investment  banking firm, Ferris
Baker Watts,  Inc.  violated the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange
Act") in soliciting  proxies  against the proposed  merger between the Bank and
Ballston Bancorp, which was not approved by the shareholders at a special
                                       14

<PAGE>



meeting held December 31, 1997, and also alleges that the individualstockholders
/directors violated the Exchange Act in soliciting proxies to remove four
directors of the Bank. The Company has hired Delaware counsel and is vigorously
defending this suit. The District Court has stayed the Federal action pending a
decision in the state action.

     Management  and the Board of  Directors  of the Company  have  reviewed the
above-described  litigation  and  believe  that it will  prevail on the  merits.
Consequently, the Company has not accrued for a potential adverse.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan with 401(k) Provisions

     On April 6, 1996,  the Company's and the Bank's Board of Directors  adopted
an employee stock ownership plan with 401(k) provisions  ("ESOP").  The ESOP was
amended  effective as of January 1, 1999 to modify certain  vesting  provisions.
The ESOP replaced the Bank's  former 401(k) Plan.  Employees of the Bank who are
at least 21 years of age and who have completed one year of service are eligible
to  participate.  The Company  submitted an application to the Internal  Revenue
Service  for a letter of  determination  as to the  tax-qualified  status of the
ESOP, and received a favorable letter of determination.  The ESOP may be amended
or terminated at any time by the Bank. The ESOP is to be funded by contributions
made by the Bank in cash or shares of the Company's  Common  Stock.  On July 17,
1996,  the ESOP borrowed  $218,750 in funds from the Company which was an amount
sufficient to purchase  31,250  shares of Common Stock.  This loan is secured by
the shares of Common Stock purchased and earnings thereon. Shares purchased with
such loan proceeds  will be held in a suspense  account for  allocation,  as the
loan is  repaid,  among  participants  who are  eligible  to share in the Bank's
contribution  for the year.  Dividends  paid on allocated  shares may be paid to
participants or used to repay the ESOP loan. Dividends on unallocated shares are
expected to be used to repay the ESOP loan.

     Participants  may elect to contribute a percentage  of their salary,  which
amount  may not be less  than 1% nor more than 15% of the  participant's  annual
salary up to $10,000 for 1997.  In addition,  the Bank may make a  discretionary
matching  contribution  equal to one-half of the percentage of the amount of the
salary  reduction  elected by each  participant  (up to a maximum of 3%),  which
percentage  will  be  determined  each  year  by the  Bank,  and  an  additional
discretionary  contribution  determined each year by the Bank.  Contributions by
the Bank and shares  released from the suspense  account will be allocated among
participants  on the basis of their annual wages  subject to federal  income tax
withholding,   plus  amounts  withheld  under  certain   qualified  plans.  Each
participant  is  immediately  vested  in his or her  contributions,  the  Bank's
matching  contributions and the Bank's initial  discretionary  contribution made
during 1996. Each  participant  will begin to vest in his or her interest in the
Bank's future discretionary  contributions to the ESOP after one year of service
and will be fully vested upon three years or service.  Benefits are payable upon
a participant's  retirement,  death, disability or separation from service, in a
single lump-sum payment or in installments.  Distributions at retirement will be
in the  form of cash or  shares  of  Common  Stock  or both.  In  addition,  the
participant or  beneficiary  has certain put rights in the event that the Common
Stock distributed cannot be readily sold.

     The Trustee of the ESOP will vote all shares of Common  Stock held by it as
part of the ESOP assets,  provided that a  participant  or  beneficiary  will be
entitled to direct the Trustee as to the manner in which voting rights are to be
exercised,  with respect to shares of Common Stock allocated to the participant,
in connection with certain corporate transactions as described in the ESOP.

     During 1999,  the Company made matching cash  contributions  to the ESOP of
$36,600. No discretionary contributions were made during 1999.

Item 11.         Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management.

     Holders of record of the Company's  common stock,  par value $.01 per share
(the "Common Stock"),  as of the close of business on April 25,2000 (the "Record
Date") are entitled to one vote for each share then held. As of the Record Date,
the Company had 2,086,753 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.

   Persons  and groups  who  beneficially  own in excess of five  percent of the
Common  Stock are  required to file  certain  reports  with the  Securities  and
Exchange  Commission ("SEC") regarding such ownership pursuant to the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). The following table sets forth, as of
April 25, 2000, the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by named executive
officers  individually,  by executive  officers and  directors as a group and by
each  person  who was the  beneficial  owner of more  than five  percent  of the
Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock.
