                           HUBCO INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)


NOTE A -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying financial statements of HUBCO, Inc. and Subsidiaries ("HUBCO"
or "the Company") include the accounts of the parent company, HUBCO, Inc. and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Hudson United Bank ("Hudson United Bank"),
Lafayette American Bank & Trust Co. ("Lafayette"), HUB Capital Trust I and HUB
Financial Services Inc., formerly known as HUB Investment Services, Inc. All
material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. These unaudited 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 Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, the information presented
includes all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered
necessary for a fair presentation, in all material respects, of the interim
period results. The results of operations for periods of less than one year are
not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.

NOTE B -- INCOME PER SHARE

Net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average
number of common shares plus the number of shares issuable upon conversion of
the preferred stock and the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of
warrants. Shares issuable upon the exercise of options are not included in the
calculation of net income per share since their effect is not material. All
share data has been retroactively restated to reflect all stock splits and stock
dividends.

The Company plans to adopt Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128-
"Earnings Per Share" in the fourth quarter of 1997, the impact of which is not
expected to be material.

NOTE C -- SECURITIES

The following table presents the amortized cost and estimated market value of
securities available-for sale and held-to maturity at the dates indicated:

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


This financial review presents management's discussion and analysis of financial
condition and results of operations. It should be read in conjunction with the
Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes. All
dollar amounts, other than per share information, are presented in thousands
unless otherwise noted.

The financial statements for the comparative periods presented herein have been
restated to reflect the acquisitions that have been accounted for on the
pooling-of-interests accounting method during the periods presented herein.
Growth Financial Corporation was acquired on January 12, 1996, Lafayette
American Bank and Trust Company was acquired on July 1, 1996 and Westport
Bancorp, Inc. was acquired on December 13, 1996. These acquisitions were
accounted for on a pooling-of-interests method, and accordingly, the
consolidated financial statements have been restated to include the accounts of
these institutions for all periods presented. All share data has been
retroactively restated to reflect the shares issued in the aforementioned
transactions including restatement of all prior periods. In addition, the
Company acquired Hometown Bancorporation on August 30, 1996, UST
Bank/Connecticut on November 29, 1996, three branches from CrossLand Federal
Savings Bank on February 29, 1996, and a branch from Interchange State
Bank on December 20, 1996. These acquisitions were accounted for on the purchase
method and thus operations and earnings are reflected in the Company's results
subsequent to the dates of acquisition. The balance sheet and income statement
comparisons are influenced by these purchase transactions.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

   OVERVIEW

Net income for the three-month period ended June 30, 1997 was $12.0 million, an
increase of 56% when compared to net income of $7.7 million for the three-month
period ended June 30, 1996. Earnings per share was $.53 for the second quarter
of 1997, an increase of 61% when compared to $.33 for the same period in 1996.
Return on average equity and return on average assets were 23.65% and 1.62%,
respectively, for the three-month period ended June 30, 1997 compared to 15.05%
and 1.12%, respectively, for the same period in 1996.

Net income for the six-month period ended June 30, 1997 was $23.5 million or
$1.03 per share, an increase of 51% per share when compared to $16.0 million or
$0.68 per share for the same period in 1996. Return on average equity and return
on average assets were 22.85% and 1.56%, respectively, for the six-month period
ended June 30, 1997 compared to 15.64% and 1.16%, respectively, for the same
period in 1996.

   NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30,
1997 was $36.2 million and $70.4 million compared to $32.7 million and $65.0
million for the same periods in 1996. This represents an increase of $3.5
million or 11% for the three-month period and an increase of $5.4 million or 8%
for the six-month period. The net interest margin for the three-month and
six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 was 5.36% and 5.14%, respectively,
compared to 5.19% and 5.21%, respectively, for the same periods in 1996.

<PAGE>


Interest income for the six-month period ended June 30, 1997 compared to the
same period in 1996, increased $10.9 million, or 11% while interest expense
increased $5.5 million, or 16%. The increased interest expense was primarily
attributable to the $75.0 million of 8.20% subordinated debt which was issued in
September 1996 and the $50.0 million of 8.98% capital trust securities
issued in January 1997, as well as an increase of $93.1 million in average
short-term borrowings.


   PROVISION FOR POSSIBLE LOAN LOSSES

The provision for possible loan losses for the three-month and six-month periods
ended June 30, 1997 was $1.6 million and $3.1 million compared to $2.7 million
and $5.0 million in 1996. The reduction in the provision for possible loan
losses is a reflection of, among other factors, the improved levels of
non-performing assets. The improved levels of non-performing assets. The Company
performs an evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses each
quarter. The results of this analysis and the expectation of potential credit
losses and economic conditions are some of the factors which determine the
required quarterly provision. In connection with a purchase of approximately
$30.0 million of credit card receivables by Shoppers Charge in May 1997, an
allowance for potential credit losses of $2.4 million was also acquired.
Management believes that the allowance at June 30, 1997 of $37.3 million, or
2.03% of total loans and 125% of non-performing loans, is adequate. Comparative
ratios for June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1996 are 1.83% and 92% and 1.87% and
111%, respectively.

Non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets at June 30, 1997 was 1.09%
compared to 1.20% at December 31, 1996. The following table presents the
composition of non-performing assets and loans past due 90 days or more and
accruing and selected asset quality ratios at the dates indicated:

Non-interest income increased 23% or $1.8 million from $7.9 million for the
second quarter of 1996 to $9.7 million the same period in 1997, and increased
26% or $3.8 million from $14.7 milliom for the six-months ended June 30, 1996 to
$18.5 million for the same period in 1997. This increase in non-interest income
from 1996 to 1997 relates primarily to increased trust services revenue,
security gains, international fees, fees on shoppers charge and other
miscellaneous income.

Non-interest expense decreased $1.0 million or 4% from $25.1 million for the
second quarter of 1996 to $24.1 million for the second quarter of 1997, and
decreased $1.4 million or 3% from $48.5 million for the six-months ended June
30, 1996 to $47.1 million for the same period in 1997. Reductions were realized
for the three-months and six-months ended June 30, 1997 in salaries, occupancy
expense, other real estate owned expense and other expenses. These reductions
are primarily a result of the full effect of cost savings initiatives following
the Lafayette and Hometown acquisitions in July and August 1996,


                                       9

along with the cost reductions which have been fully realized during this second
quarter of 1997, related to the UST acquisition in November 1996 and its
computer conversion in March 1997 and the Westport acquisition in December 1996.

Increases for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 compared
to the same period in 1996 occurred in outside services which increased $1.2
million and $2.0 million, respectively, related to payments for computer
processing and other data processing services and amortization of intangibles
which increased $522 and $1.2 million, respectively, due to the acquisitions of
Hometown and UST/Bank Connecticut in the second half of 1996, which were
accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and are being amortized
over a 10 year period.

The Company's effective tax rate for the three-month and six-month periods ended
June 30, 1997 was 40.3% and 39.2%, respectively. This compares with an effective
tax rate for the comparable periods in 1996 of 38.9% and 38.7%. The slight
increase in the effective tax rate is primarily due to the increase in
non-deductible intangibles as a result of the recent acquisitions.

   FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets at June 30, 1997, were $3.00 billion, a decrease of $113.9 million
or 3.6% from $3.12 billion of assets at December 31, 1996, as restated for all
poolings. The securities portfolio has decreased 7% or $62.0 million from $936.4
million at December 31, 1996 to $874.4 million at June 30, 1997 due primarily to
maturities and principal repayments. Total Loans decreased $48.4 million, or 3%
to $1.84 billion at June 30, 1997 from $1.88 billion at December 31, 1996
reflecting declines in residential mortgage loans where most new originations
are being sold and consumer credit loans where indirect lending has been phased
out. The Shoppers Charge receivables increased $23.6 million from December 31,
1996 to June 30, 1997 due to the purchase of credit card receivables in early
May 1997. Shoppers Charge purchased approximately $30 million of receivables
along with a $2.4 million allowance for possible loan losses. Other real estate
owned decreased $2.8 million or 50% from $5.6 million at December 31, 1996 to
$2.8 million at June 30, 1997 as management continues to focus on asset quality.
Intangibles, net of amortization, decreased from $29.2 million at December 31,
1996 to $26.8 million at June 30, 1997 as the intangibles related to
acquisitions are amortized over periods ranging from 5 to 10 years.

Deposits decreased 9% from $2.59 billion at December 31, 1996, to $2.37 billion
at June 30, 1997. The Company generally anticipates deposit shrinkage following
acquisitions as the rates on deposits of the acquired companies are conformed to
rates generally offered by the Company. Total borrowings increased $45.3 million
from $188.0 million at December 31, 1996 to $233.3 million at June 30, 1997.
This increase is due primarily to an increase in short-term advances from the
Federal Home Loan Bank. Total stockholders' equity at June 30, 1997 was $211.7
million compared to $206.3 million at December 31, 1996. The increase in
stockholders' equity is primarily attributable to $23.5 million in earnings for
the six-month period offset by $8.6 million of cash dividends, the change in the
unrealized gain on securities available for sale of $1.3 million, and the
purchase of $10.2 million in treasury shares to fund the exercise of stock
options and Warrants along with the conversion of some convertible preferred
stock.

On January 31, 1997, the Company placed $50.0 million in aggregate liquidation
amount of 8.98% Capital Securities due February 2027, using HUBCO Capital Trust
I, a statutory business trust formed under the laws of the State of Delaware.
The net proceeds are being used for general corporate purposes and
to increase capital levels of the Company and its subsidiaries. The securities
qualify as Tier I capital under the capital guidelines of the Federal Reserve.
