NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information. The financial information included herein is unaudited;
however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal
recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a
fair statement of the results for the interim periods. For further information,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994.
2. The results of operations for the six-month period ended June 30, 1995 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
3. Per share data are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding
of 7,165,367 and 7,165,367 for 1995 and 1994, respectively, and are computed
after giving retroactive effect to a 5% stock dividend paid on October 31, 1994.
4. On July 26, 1995, the Company's Board of Directors declared a 5% stock
dividend payable on October 31, 1995 to shareholders of record on September 29,
1995.
5. On January 1, 1995 the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) NO. 114, "Accounting for Creditors for Impairment of a Loan,"
as amended by SFAS No. 118, "Accounting for Creditors for Impairment of a Loan -
Income Recognition and Disclosures." SFAS No. 114 requires that a creditor
measure impairment based on the present value of expected future cash flows
discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, except that as a practical
expedient, a creditor may measure impairment based on a loan's observable market
price, or the fair value of collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
Regardless of the measurement method, a creditor must measure impairment based
on the fair value of the collateral when the creditor determines that
foreclosure is probable. SFAS No. 118 allows creditors to use existing methods
for recognizing interest income on impaired loans.
The Company has identified a loan as impaired when it is probable that
interest and principal will not be collected according to the contractual terms
of the loan agreement. The accrual of interest is discontinued in such loans and
no income is recognized until all recorded amounts of interest and principal are
recovered in full.
6
<PAGE>
Loan impairment is measured by estimating the expected future cash
flows and discounting them at the respective effective interest rate or by
valuing the underlying collateral. The recorded investment in these loans and
the valuation for credit losses related to loan impairment are as follows:
June 30,
1995
Principal amount of impaired loans $7,249,000
Accrued interest --
Deferred loan costs --
----------
7,249,000
Less valuation allowance 1,193,000
----------
$6,056,000
==========
On January 1, 1995 a valuation for credit losses related to impaired
loans was established. The activity in this allowance for the six months ending
June 30, 1995 is as follows:
Valuation allowance at beginning of period $ 1,913,000
Provision for loan impairment 586,000
Direct charge-offs (855,000)
Recoveries 269,000
-----------
Valuation allowance at end of period $ 1,193,000
Total cash collected on impaired loans during the six months ended June
30, 1995 was $742,000, of which $269,000 was credited to the principal balance
outstanding on such loans and $473,000 was recognized as interest income.
Interest that would have been accrued on impaired loans during the first six
months of 1995 was $326,000. Interest income recognized during the first six
months of 1995 was $473,000.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
The following discussion and analysis is intended to assist in
understanding and evaluating the major changes in the financial condition and
earnings performance of the Company with a primary focus on an analysis of
operating results.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets increased to $1.221 billion, an increase of $83.7 million
or 7.4% over the $1.137 billion at December 31, 1994. This increase is reflected
primarily in the loan category, the result of the investment of deposits, the
Company's primary source of funds.
Total cash and cash equivalents increased $17.0 million or 49.9% at
June 30, 1995 when compared to December 31, 1994. This increase was due to an
increase in due from banks and federal funds sold.
Loans increased to $889.9 million at June 30, 1995. The increase of
$59.3 million or 7.1% compared to December 31, 1994 was primarily the result of
the investment of deposits. Loans originated for immediate resale during the
first six months of the year amounted to $4.9 million. The Company's credit
quality is reflected by the annualized ratio of net charge-offs to average total
loans of .35% for the second quarter and the level of non-performing loans to
total loans of 1.63% at June 30, 1995. The Company has no significant exposure
to energy and agricultural- related loans. Non-performing loans at December 31,
1994 were 1.12% of total loans.
Investments, the Company's secondary use of funds, increased $11.0
million or 4.6% to $249.1 million at June 30, 1995 when compared to December 31,
1994. The increase was primarily in Mortgage-Backed Securities.
As the primary source of funds, aggregate deposits of $908.7 million at
June 30, 1995 increased $44.1 million or 5.1% compared to December 31, 1994.
There was a shift in deposit mix during the first six months of 1995 as interest
bearing deposits increased $40.1 million while non-interest bearing deposits
increased $4.0 million. Certificates of deposit in excess of $100,000 increased
$25.1 million. In addition to deposits, earning assets are funded to some extent
through purchased funds and borrowings. These include securities sold under
repurchase agreements, federal funds purchased, short-term borrowings and
long-term debt obligations. In the aggregate, these funds totaled $203.2 million
at June 30, 1995, a $27.2 million or 15.4% increase compared to $176.0 million
December 31, 1994. The increase is reflected in short-term
8
<PAGE>
obligations, primarily securities sold under repurchase agreement and federal
funds purchased.
Shareholders' equity increased $10.6 million or 12.6% at June 30, 1995
to $95.5 million compared to the $84.9 million at December 31, 1994. This
increase was due to the retention of earnings and the change in valuation
adjustment for securities available for sale. Cash dividends paid during the
first six months of 1995 increased $467,000 or 18.4% compared to the cash
dividends paid during the first six months of 1994. Earnings retained during the
first six months of 1995 were 59.8% compared to 65.1% during the first six
months of 1994.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 1995 was $3.6 million, 3.0%
more than the $3.5 million reported for the same period in 1994. For the first
six months, net income reached $7.5 million, or 3.0% more than the $7.3 million
reported for the first six months of 1994. The Company's performance has been
and will continue to be in part influenced by the strength of the economy and
conditions in the real estate market.
Net interest income is the difference between interest income on assets
and interest expense on liabilities. Net interest income decreased $.5 million
or 3.3% to $13.5 million during the second quarter of 1995 from $14.0 million in
the second quarter 1994. For the comparative six month period, net interest
income remained constant. The increase in interest income is a result of growth
in loan outstandings and higher rates on loans that was partially offset by
growth in deposits and higher rates on deposits and borrowings. Interest rate
risk is a major concern in forecasting earnings potential. The Company's prime
rate from January 1, 1995 to January 31, 1995 was 8.50%. On February 1, 1995,
the prime rate changed to 9.0%. The Company's prime rate was 6.0% from January 1
through March 23, 1994. From March 24 to April 18, 1994, the prime rate was
6.25%. From April 19 to May 17, 1994, the prime rate was 6.75%. On May 18, 1994,
the prime rate changed to 7.25%. Interest expense during the first six months of
1995 increased $8.0 million or 62.9% compared to the prior year's six months.
Despite the current rate environment, the cost of attracting and holding
deposited funds is an ever-increasing expense in the banking industry. These
increases are the real costs of deposit accumulation and retention, including
FDIC insurance costs and branch overhead expenses. Such costs are necessary for
continued growth and to maintain and increase market share of available
deposits.
The provision for loan and lease losses is determined by periodic
reviews of loan quality, current economic conditions, loss experience and loan
growth. Based on these factors, the provision for loan and lease losses
decreased $200,000 for both the second
9
<PAGE>
quarter and the first six months of 1995 compared to the same periods in 1994.
The allowance for loan and lease losses of $19.3 million at June 30, 1995 and
December 31, 1994 as a percentage of total loans was 2.2% and 2.3%,
respectively. The Company's net charge-offs of $1,475,000 and $1,350,000 during
the first six months of 1995 and 1994, respectively, continues to be comparable
to that of the Company's peers, as reported in the Bank Holding Company
Performance Report.
"Total other income" increased $135,000 or 9.1% during the second
quarter of 1995, as a result of gains on the sale of securities and mortgages of
$138,000, trust income of $73,000 and service charges on deposit accounts of
$17,000. Year to date, other income increased $1,057,000 or 40.1% when compared
to the first six months of 1994 as a result of gains on the sale of securities
and mortgages of $615,000, other income of $259,000, trust income of $172.000
and service charges on deposit accounts 0f $11,000. "Total other expenses"
decreased $360,000 or 3.7% during the quarter ended June 30, 1995 and increased
$867,000 or 4.9% for the six months period. Of this year-to-date increase,
salaries and benefits increased $900,000 or 10.1% due to higher staffing levels
and the opening of two supermarket branches in 1995.
Income before income taxes increased by $227,000 or 4.6% compared to
the second quarter of 1994. In comparing the first six months of 1995 to 1994,
income before income taxes increased $193,000 or 1.8%. Income taxes increased
$123,000 for the quarter and decreased $25,000 the six month period.
LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY
The primary functions of asset/liability management are to assure
adequate liquidity and maintain an appropriate balance between interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Liquidity management involves the
ability to meet the cash flow requirements of customers who may be either
depositors wanting to withdraw funds or borrowers needing assurance that
sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit needs. Funding affecting
short-term liquidity, including deposits, repurchase agreements, fed funds
purchased, and short-term borrowings, increased $76.3 million from year end
1994. Long-term borrowings decreased $5.0 million during the first six months of
1995.
The goal of interest rate sensitivity management is to avoid
fluctuating net interest margins, and to enhance consistent growth of net
interest income through periods of changing interest rates. Such sensitivity is
measured as the difference in the volume of assets and liabilities in the
existing portfolio that are subject to repricing in a future time period.

The following table shows separately the interest rate sensitivity of
each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities at

(1) Savings and NOW deposits are scheduled for repricing based on
historical deposit decay rate analyses, as well as historical moving
averages of run-off for the Company's deposits in these categories.
Interest rate sensitivity is a function of the repricing
characteristics of the Company's assets and liabilities. These characteristics
include the volume of assets and liabilities repricing, the timing of the
repricing, and the relative levels of repricing. Attempting to minimize the
interest rate sensitivity gaps is a continual challenge in a changing rate
environment. Based on the Company's gap position as reflected in the above
table, current accepted theory would indicate that net interest income would
increase in a falling rate environment and would decrease in a rising rate
environment. An interest rate gap table does not, however, present a complete
picture of the impact of interest rate changes on net interest income. First,
changes in the general level of interest rates do not affect all categories of
11
<PAGE>
assets and liabilities equally or simultaneously. Second, assets and liabilities
which can contractually reprice within the same period may not, in fact, reprice
at the same time or to the same extent. Third, the table represents a one-day
position; variations occur daily as the Company adjusts its interest sensitivity
throughout the year. Fourth, assumptions must be made to construct such a table.
For example, non-interest bearing deposits are assigned a repricing interval
within one year, although history indicates a significant amount of these
deposits will not move into interest bearing categories regardless of the
general level of interest rates. Finally, the repricing distribution of interest
sensitive assets may not be indicative of the liquidity of those assets.
The Company anticipates volatile interest rate levels for the remainder
of 1995, with no clear indication of sustainable rising or falling rates. Given
this assumption, the Company's asset/liability strategy for 1995 is to move
toward a smaller negative gap (interest-bearing liabilities subject to repricing
equal interest-earning assets subject to repricing) for periods up to a year.
The impact of a volatile interest rate environment on net interest income is not
expected to be significant to the Company's results of operations. Effective
monitoring of these interest sensitivity gaps is the priority of the Company's
asset/liability management committee.
CAPITAL ADEQUACY
The following table sets forth certain capital performance ratios.
June 30, Dec. 31,
1995 1994
CAPITAL LEVELS
Tier 1 leverage ratio 7.39% 7.35%
Tier 1 risk-based ratio 10.74 10.85
Total risk-based ratio 12.01 12.11
CAPITAL PERFORMANCE
Return on average assets(annualized) 1.30 1.41
Return on average equity(annualized) 16.70 17.30
Earnings retained 59.80 63.50
Internal capital growth(annualized) 10.54 11.32
The Company's capital ratios above compare favorably to the minimum
required amounts of Tier 1 and total capital to "risk- weighted" assets and the
minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio, as defined by banking regulators. At June 30,
1995, the Company was required to have minimum Tier 1 and total capital ratios

order for the Company to be considered "well capitalized", as defined by banking
regulators, the Company must have Tier 1 and total capital ratios of 6.0% and
10.0%, respectively, and a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5.0%. The Company
currently meets the criteria for a well capitalized institution, and management
believes that, under current regulations, the Company will continue to meet its
minimum capital requirements in the foreseeable future. At present, the Company
has no commitments for significant capital expenditures.
The Company is not under any agreement with regulatory authorities nor
is the Company aware of any current recommendations by the regulatory
authorities which, if such recommendations were implemented, would have a
material effect on liquidity, capital resources or operations of the Company.
FUTURE OUTLOOK
In February 1994, the Company's Board of Directors approved the
repurchase of up to 200,000 shares of its common stock in open market or
negotiated transactions. To date, a total of 160,000 shares have been
repurchased at an aggregate cost of $4,942,000.
On March 1, 1995, the Company opened its first supermarket branch
banking facility in Muhlenberg, PA. The second supermarket branch was opened on
May 3, 1995 in Schnecksville, PA. The Company considers supermarket branches to
be a strategic delivery system for banks in the future and anticipates opening
three more during the remainder of 1995.
The Company will continue its work on the installation of platform
automation during 1995. Through platform automation, the Company expects to
increase efficiencies and re-focus its efforts to improve productivity, in order
to provide faster and improved service to our customers, at the same time
reducing costs to contrubute to improved profitability. The platform automation
project may lead to in excess of $1 million in capital expenditures.
