NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 1995

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
         have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
         principles for interim financial information and with the instructions
         to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not
         include all of the disclosures required by generally accepted
         accounting principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
         (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
         fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three
         months and nine months ended September 30, 1995 are not necessarily
         indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended
         December 31, 1995. 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.

NOTE B - INCOME TAXES

         Income tax expense is less than the amount calculated using the
         statutory tax rate primarily as a result of tax exempt income earned
         from state and political subdivision obligations.

NOTE C - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

         In the normal course of business, the bank makes various commitments
         and incurs certain contingent liabilities which are not reflected in
         the accompanying financial statements. There were firm commitments to
         extend credit in the amount of $109,438,000 at September 30, 1995.
         Commitments under outstanding standby letters of credit amounted to
         $7,877,000 at September 30, 1995. Management does not anticipate any
         losses as a result of these customary banking transactions. The 
         notional value of interest rate swaps existing at September 30, 1995 
         was $5,000,000. This rate contract matures on December 20, 1995.

    the maximum additional 1,054,888 shares that could be issued through the
    acquisition as having been issued prior to January 1, 1994. WCNB had assets
    of $136,181,000 and equity of $11,949,000 at September 30, 1995. WCNB

A more detailed discussion of the elements having the greatest impact on net
income follows.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the amount by which interest income on earning assets
exceeds interest paid on interest bearing liabilities. The amount of net
interest income is affected by changes in interest rates, account balances or
volume, and the mix of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.

Net interest income for the third quarter of 1995 increased $509,000, or 4.3%,
over the third quarter of 1994. Net interest income for the first nine months of
1995 increased $2,162,000 or 6.3% over the first nine months of 1994.

Net interest income for 1995's third quarter grew by 4.3% (4.5% on a tax
equivalent basis) due to an 11 basis point increase in net interest margin over
1994's third quarter. The net interest margin increase was driven by a 12.4%
increase in average daily free funds that arose due to an 11.1% increase in
average daily non-interest bearing demand deposits and an 8.8% increase in
average daily shareholders' equity.

Net interest income for 1995's first nine months grew by 6.3% (6.2% on a tax
equivalent basis) due to an 11 basis point increase in net interest margin over
1994's first nine months. The net interest margin increase was fueled primarily
by a 10.2% increase in free funds. Non-interest bearing demand deposits were up
10.7%, on an average daily basis, over 1994's first nine months. Shareholders
equity increased 7.6% over the same period, on an average daily basis. Local
commercial lending has driven 1995's net interest margin increases with
commercial loans growing approximately $8 million and non-interest demand
deposits growing approximately $6 million per quarter, on an average daily basis
during 1995's second and third quarters.

Other Income and Other Expenses
Total non-interest income increased $237,000, or 4.3%, over the first nine
months of 1994. Increases were spread throughout all categories. Investment
security gains were realized via the sale of equity securities from the
available for sale portfolio.

Total non-interest expenses increased by 4.0% over the first nine months of 1994
but were unchanged in third quarter comparisons due to a $312,000 reduction in
FDIC insurance from year to year that arose due to a $477,000 refund received in
September, 1995. The decrease in FDIC insurance costs offset increases in other
areas.

The provision for loan losses decreased by $29,000, or 18.7%, versus 1994's
third quarter and by $217,000, or 40.2%, year to date because loan quality
remains very good. The ratio of reserves to gross loans decreased to 1.50% at
September 30, 1995 versus 1.59% at December 31, 1994 but approximately 43% of
the $10,924,000 reserve for loan losses remains unallocated. Nonperforming
assets have decreased significantly (23.8%) since December 31, 1994, as shown in
the following summary:

Income before income taxes is up $1,709,000 and income tax expense is up
$579,000 over 1994's first nine months. This appropriately reflects our marginal
income tax bracket. The effective federal income tax rates were 25.3% for 1995's
first nine months and 24.4% for 1994's first nine months.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Corporation continues to follow a strategy of pricing assets and liabilities
according to prevailing market rates and matching maturities as prudently as
possible within the guidelines of sound marketing and competitive practices. The
overall liquidity is strengthened by the reliance upon core deposits as the
major source of funds.

The primary objective of Financial Trust Corp's asset/liability management is to
maximize net interest income while maintaining adequate levels of liquidity and
interest rate risk. Meeting the needs of the local communities we serve is also
quite important. Management is committed to continued investment in these local
communities and is confident that it will be able to meet credit demands while
preserving liquidity and profitability.

Rate sensitivity is measured primarily by the use of monthly gap analyses for
each of the five financial institutions as well as on a consolidated banking
company basis. While individual institutions may become positively or negatively
gapped, within the framework of their ALCO policies, the consolidated gap
position is kept balanced and moves only minimally from a 1 to 1 relationship
for rate sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities. Consolidated banking
company gap analysis prepared as of September 30, 1995 on a cumulative basis
demonstrates the following rate sensitive asset/rate sensitive liability ratios
at the date:

                           Including Prepayments   Excluding Prepayments
0 -  3 months                     .83 to 1                .78 to 1
0 -  6 months                     .95 to 1                .86 to 1
0 -  9 months                    1.17 to 1               1.06 to 1
0 -12 months                     1.33 to 1               1.19 to 1

Our gaps historically stay in a rather tight range. We feel that we can react to
rate movements in either direction from our current position. We perform
quarterly interest rate shock analyses at the bank level to supplement the gap
analysis.

Historically, the Corporation has operated with a very strong capital base, well
above industry averages. Total shareholders' equity represented 12.15% of assets
at September 30, 1995, versus 11.30% one year earlier. The consolidated risk
based capital ratios at September 30, 1995 were 18.62% for Tier 1 and 19.87% for
total capital. At September 30, 1994 those ratios were 17.41% for Tier 1 and
18.65% for total capital. The Tier 1 leverage ratio at September 30, 1995 was
11.63%. All banking and thrift subsidiaries individually exceed minimum
regulatory capital requirements at September 30, 1995 by a comfortable margin.
Given the strong capital base, no equity raising activities are planned for the
near future. Capital position and asset quality have consistently been strengths
of the Corporation.

Any loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss, doubtful, substandard or
special mention that have not been disclosed under Item III of Industry Guide 3
do not represent or result from trends or uncertainties which management
reasonably expects will materially impact future operating results, liquidity or
capital resources.

Financial Trust Corp's management is not aware of any current recommendations by
regulatory authorities which, if implemented, would have a material effect on
the corporations's liquity capital resources or operations.
