                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                   ------------------------------------------


Note 1 -      The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have
              been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-QSB
              and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes
              required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
              financial statements. The interim financial statements have been
              prepared utilizing the interim basis of reporting and, as such,
              reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management,
              necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods
              presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are
              not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

Note 2 -      The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
              generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
              make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
              assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
              liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
              reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
              period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 3 -      On December 31, 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
              Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings per share (SFAS 128), which
              supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15. Under SFAS
              128, earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income
              (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average
              number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted
              earnings per share reflects the potential dilution, if any, that
              could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock
              were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the
              issuance of common stock. There dilutive effect for the nine month
              period ended September 30, 1999 is shown within this report. Prior
              period amounts have been restated, where appropriate, to conform
              to the requirements of SFAS 128.

Note 4 -      On January 1, 1998, United Financial Banking Companies, Inc.
              adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130,
              Reporting Comprehensive Income (SFAS 130). Under SFAS 130, each
              company is required to present a 'Statement of Comprehensive
              Income'. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity
              during a period from transactions and other events and
              circumstances from non-owner sources such as foreign currency
              items, minimum pension liability adjustments and unrealized gains
              and losses on certain investments in debt and equity securities.

ITEM 2:       MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward looking statements. This discussion contains forward looking statements,
including statements of goals, intentions and expectations as to future trends,
plans, or results of Company operations and policies and regarding general
economic conditions. These statements are based upon current and anticipated
economic conditions, nationally and in the Company's market, interest rates and
interest rate policy, competitive factors, statements by suppliers of data
processing equipment and services, government agencies and of third parties, as
to Year 2000 compliance, and other conditions which, by their nature, are not
susceptible to accurate forecast, and are subject to significant uncertainty.
Because of these uncertainties and the assumptions on which this discussion and
the forward looking statements are based, actual future operations and results
may differ materially from those indicated herein.

A.      Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 1999 as
        ---------------------------------------------------------------------
        Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 1998
        ----------------------------------------------------

General
- -------
     The following discussion provides an overview of the financial condition
and results of operations of United Financial Banking Companies, Inc. (UFBC) and
its subsidiaries, The Business Bank and Business Venture Capital, Inc., which is
presented on a consolidated basis. UFBC reported net income of $311,425 for the
nine-month period ended September 30, 1999. This compares with net income of
$141,474 for the same period of 1998. Basic earnings (loss) per share were $.37
for the first nine months ended September 30, 1999 compared to $.14 for the
first nine months of 1998.

     Earnings for the first nine months of 1999 are primarily due to increased
earning assets and a decreased cost of funds. During the past year, UFBC's
primary subsidiary, The Business Bank (the Bank), continued to increase the
Company's earning asset base. At September 30, 1999, average total earning
assets increased $1,389,852 or 2.9% when compared to the first nine months of
September 30, 1998 (Consolidated Average Balances table). The increase has
favorably contributed to the Company's operating earnings. Total interest
expense declined $181,378 or 13.2% when comparing September 30, 1999 to
September 30, 1998. The decline has contributed favorably to the Company's net
income.

     During the third quarter of 1999, the Company filed a registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to offer 170,000 shares of
United Financial Banking Companies, Inc. common stock at $9.00 per share. The
offering includes a 10% over line in the event of over subscription.

Net Interest Income
- -------------------
     For the nine-month period ended September 30, 1999, net interest income
increased $91,695 or 5.5% from $1,665,973 at the nine-month period ended
September 30, 1998 to $1,757,668 at the nine-month period ended September 30,
1999. The increase is primarily attributable to decreased interest expense as a
result of the Bank's asset liability management. As shown in the Consolidated
Average Balances table, average total interest-bearing deposits decreased
$1,589,359 or 4.2% from $37,644,519 at September 30, 1998 to $36,055,160 at
September 30, 1999. Rate sensitive deposits (customers without an established
banking relationship) were allowed to runoff as they matured during the first
three quarters of 1999. Also, as shown in the Consolidated Average Balances
table, the cost of interest-bearing deposits declined 55 basis points from 4.88%
at September 30, 1998 to 4.33% at September 30, 1999. Interest expense on
deposits decreased $202,568 or 14.8% at September 30, 1999 when compared to the
nine month period ended September 30, 1998. The decreased interest expense
contributed favorably to net interest income. Interest expense on short-term
borrowings increased $21,190 as a result of the Bank's $1,100,000 in borrowings
from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta. The increase did not significantly
impact net interest income.

     For the same comparable nine-month period, interest and fee income earned
on loans decreased $132,628 or 5.2% (Consolidated Statements of Income). The
decrease is primarily due to a 47 basis point decline in the yield on the loan
portfolio when comparing 1999 and 1998. A significant portion of the portfolio
turned over during the declining rate environment of 1998.

                                       7
<PAGE>

     During the past year, the investment mix, such as loans, securities or
federal funds, selected by management changed in response to the competitive
economic and rate sensitive environment. Interest earned on investment
securities increased $121,667 or 59.8%, while interest earned on federal funds
decreased $74,386 or 28.2% during the comparable nine month periods ended
September 1999 and September 1998. The increased volume of securities and the
decreased volume of federal funds sold primarily account for the earning
variances. As shown in the Consolidated Average Balances table, average
investment securities increased $2,663,664 or 56.1% from $4,751,580 at September
30, 1998 to $7,415,244 at September 30, 1999. Federal funds sold decreased
$1,127,215 or 17.9% from $6,314,045 at September 30, 1998 to $5,186,830 at
September 30, 1999. In relation to the volume changes, a yield increase of 16
basis points on investment securities and a decrease of 71 basis points on
federal funds sold for the comparable periods also contributed to the increased
net interest income.

Provision for Loan/Lease Losses
- -------------------------------
      Provision expense declined $62,421 or 52.5% from $118,900 at September 30,
1998 to $56,479 at September 30, 1999. During the nine months ended September
30, 1999, the Bank funded its allowance for loan/lease losses by charging
$66,600 against earnings compared to $118,900 charged against earnings during
the first nine months of 1998. The Bank charged-off a $53,000 commercial loan
during the first nine months of 1998. During the first quarter of 1999, the
parent company, UFBC, sold its only booked loan which resulted in a $19,529
charge to its allowance of $30,940. The remaining UFBC allowance of $11,411 was
reversed and credited to the Company's provision expense.

Noninterest Income
- ------------------
     Total noninterest income decreased $11,882 or 4.7% for the nine month
period ended September 30, 1999 compared to the same period of 1998. The
decrease is primarily attributable to a $40,000 gain on the sale of a loan
during 1998. Recognition of $21,800 of deferred income as the result of loan
payoffs during 1998 also contributed to the decline.

Noninterest Expense
- -------------------
     Total noninterest expense decreased $34,629 or 2.1% during the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 when compared to the same period of 1998. In connection
with the disposition of real estate owned (REO), 1998 write-downs totaling
$227,666 primarily explain the decrease. REO holding expense declined $20,180 or
61.9% for the comparable period and also contributed to the decrease in total
noninterest expense. The liquidation of REO property during 1998, which
eliminated the related holding costs, explains the decline.

     Total noninterest expense increased $63,765 or 12.3% during the three month
period ended September 30, 1999 when compared to the same period of 1998. During
the comparable period, salaries increased $56,968 or 27.1%, employee benefits
increased 9,646 or 23.5% and occupancy increased $15,854 or 20.4%. The increases
were due to staffing and other costs associated with the McLean branch.

      Legal expense declined $7,926 or 26.2% during the nine-month period ended
September 30, 1999 when compared to the first nine months of 1998. The Bank
incurred approximately $3,000 of litigation expense in the first nine months of
1998. Also in the first nine months of 1998, UFBC incurred costs associated with
non-recurring regulatory filings. During the nine months ended September 30,
1999, the Bank incurred general legal fees associated with collections in the
normal course of business. In the opinion of management, there were no legal
matters pending as of September 30, 1999 which would have a material adverse
effect on the Company's financial statements.

     Salaries and employee benefits increased $117,545 or 15.3% from $770,885 at
September 30, 1998 to $888,430 at September 30, 1999. The rise is due to
additional staffing as the Company expands its banking operations.

     Other expense rose $50,069 or 23.6% during the nine-month period ended
September 30, 1999 when compared to the first nine months of 1998. During the
first nine months of 1999, the Bank incurred approximately $40,000 of one-time
fees associated with Year 2000 compliance, the McLean branch start-up and state
tax assessments.


Income Taxes
- ------------
     In 1993, the rate that UFBC accrued its tax benefit differed from the
statutory tax rate based on the inability of

                                       8
<PAGE>

UFBC to use its losses to reduce deferred taxes or to record a tax benefit. At
the end of 1993, all of UFBC's accrued tax benefits were eliminated due to
UFBC's inability to demonstrate capacity for their future use. As a result,
until such time that UFBC demonstrates a capacity for their future use, UFBC
will not be able to accrue tax benefits. UFBC accrued no tax benefits for the
nine months ended September 30, 1999.

B.   Financial Condition as of September 30, 1999
     --------------------------------------------

Assets
- ------
     Total assets decreased $1,107,408 or 2.0% during the first nine months of
1999 when compared to the period ended December 31, 1998. The drop in assets is
primarily attributable to the Bank's decreased volume of deposits which
decreased the volume of assets available for investment. Deposits decreased
$2,843,543 or 5.7% from $50,185,459 at December 31, 1998 to $47,341,916 at
September 30, 1999 due to rate driven payoffs.

Allowance for Loan/Lease Losses
- -------------------------------
     The allowance for loan/lease losses (allowance) represents an amount which
management believes will be adequate to absorb potential losses inherent in the
loan/lease portfolio. The provision for loan losses represents the charge to
earnings during the year to fund the allowance to cover potential future losses.
The amount charged to expense during the year is dependent upon management's and
the Board of Directors' assessment of the adequacy of the allowance. Principal
factors used in evaluation include prior loss experience, changes in the
composition and volume of the portfolio, overall portfolio quality, the value of
underlying collateral, reviews of portfolio quality by state and federal
supervisory authorities, specific problem loans, and current and anticipated
economic conditions that may affect a borrower's ability to repay.

     At September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, the allowance was $769,425 and
$747,374, respectively, or 2.0% of total loans and leases. Nonperforming loans
for the nine-month period ended September 30, 1999 totaled $282,7214, of which
$266,433 resided in the Bank and of which $15,781 resided in the subsidiary,
Business Venture Capital, Inc. (BVCI). This compares to a balance of $60,378 at
December 31, 1998, of which $15,781 resided in the BVCI and $44,597 in the
parent. The consolidated allowance for loan/lease losses covers nonperforming
loans 2.7 times at September 30, 1999, compared to a coverage of 12.4 times at
year end 1998.

     Premises and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, increased $139,113
or 116.6% during the nine months ended September 30, 1999. The increase was
primarily due to purchases and build out associated with the McLean branch.
Purchases of Year 2000 compliant equipment for the main branch also contributed
to the increase.

Liabilities and Equity
- ----------------------
     Total deposits decreased $2,843,543 or 5.7% during the first nine months of
1999 when compared to the year ended 1998. During the nine months ended
September 30, 1999, the deposit mix changed favorably in response to the rate
environment and the Bank's liquidity and investment requirements. Rate sensitive
certificates of deposits were repriced as they matured during the first three
quarters of 1999 which resulted in runoff. Certificates of deposits declined
$3,187,547 or 12.6% from $25,345,426 at December 31, 1998 to $22,157,879 at
September 30, 1999.

     The Bank borrowed $1,100,000 from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta in
May 1999. The short-term borrowings mature in November 1999. The transaction
tested the Bank's borrowing process should the need arise for Year 2000
concerns. The funds also supplement liquidity while the McLean branch builds a
deposit base.

     Stockholders' equity increased $595,492 or 11.73% during the nine months
ended September 30, 1999 when compared to the year ended 1998. As of September
30, 1999, the Company sold 41,667 shares of common stock or $375,003 in its
public offering. The offering is expected to close on November 24, 1999.

Liquidity and Investment
- ------------------------
     UFBC's operational needs were significantly reduced by the cancellation of
its debt to the FDIC in 1994, staff reduction and reduced professional fees. For
the near future, management projects that proceeds received from the May 1998
Private Offering, earning assets, the liquidation of non-Bank REO and the sale
of non-Bank assets will provide sufficient cash flow for UFBC's continuing
operational needs.

                                       9

     Consolidated average liquid assets were 27.5% of average total assets at
September 30, 1999 compared to 25.0% for the same period ended September 30,
1998 and 31.5% at December 31, 1998 (Consolidated Average Balances table). The
Company's liquidity needs exist primarily in the Bank subsidiary. To maintain
adequate liquidity, the Bank purchases certain traditional assets such as
government and other investment securities. The Bank's securities portfolio
comprises U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. Government agency securities, state and
municipal securities and equity securities. The Bank is strategically growing
its securities portfolio to ensure safe levels of liquidity, to enhance the
overall credit quality of its asset base, to generate increased interest income,
to balance assets and liabilities and to hedge interest rate risk. The
securities portfolio includes both instruments available-for-sale and held-to-
maturity. Securities classified as available-for-sale may be sold in response to
changes in market interest rates, changes in prepayment or extension risk,
management of the federal tax position, liquidity needs and other
asset/liability management issues. Securities classified as held-to-maturity are
intended for investment purposes.

     At September 30, 1999, the Bank's investment portfolio consisted of the
following:

                          Available-for-Sale  Held-to-Maturity
                          ------------------  ----------------
U.S. Treasury                             --           500,130
U.S. Government Agency             7,500,083                --
State and Municipal                       --           140,000
Equity                               166,400                --

Capital Requirements
- --------------------
     The Federal Reserve Board issued risk-based capital guidelines for bank
holding companies. The guidelines initially defined a two-tier capital
framework. Tier I Capital consists of common and qualifying preferred
shareholders' equity less intangible assets. Tier II Capital consists of
mandatory convertible, subordinated and other qualifying debt, preferred stock
not qualifying as Tier I Capital and the reserve for loan losses up to 1.25
percent of risk-weighted assets. Under these guidelines, one of four risk
weights is applied to the different on-balance sheet assets. Off-balance sheet
items such as loan commitments are also applied a risk weight after conversion
to balance sheet equivalent amounts. Tier I and Tier II Capital require a
minimum ratio of 4.0% and 8.0%, respectively. The Federal Reserve issued another
guideline, a minimum Leverage ratio, which measures the ratio of Tier I Capital
to quarterly average assets less intangible assets. A Leverage ratio of 3.0%
must be maintained for highly rated banks. Otherwise, the minimum leverage
ratio, based upon the institution's overall financial condition, must be at
least 100 to 200 basis points above the minimum. These guidelines were also
adopted by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and therefore applies to
the Company's banking subsidiary. Additionally, the Federal Reserve Board
requires bank holding companies to meet a minimum ratio of qualifying Total
(combined Tier I and Tier II) capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0%, at least
half of which must be composed of core (Tier I) capital elements. The following
table presents the Company and the Bank's capital position and related ratios as
of September 30, 1999 and 1998.

Year 2000
- ---------
       Assuring that computer systems and applications are Year 2000 (Y2K)
compliant presents a complex managerial and technological challenge. Many
computer programs now in use have not been designed to properly recognize years
after 1999. If not corrected, these programs could fail or create erroneous
results. The Y2K issue affects the entire banking industry because of its
reliance on computers and other equipment that use computer chips, and may have
significant effects on the Company's customers and regulators. In recognition of
the potential adverse effects of the Y2K issue, management of the Company
created a Y2K project team and established a plan to prevent or mitigate
potential adverse effects of Y2K issue on the Company, its vendors and its
customers. The Y2K project team is headed by a senior management executive.

       The Company's Y2K Plan consists of three phases. Phase I required the
Company to assess its Y2K compliance needs and to develop a plan to address
those needs. The assessment included testing the Company's current hardware,
software and material external vendors' compliance. Phase I also included
assessing the impact Y2K compliance could have on our existing and future
customers. The Company completed Phase I in December 1997. The Y2K project team
concluded that the Company would need to replace and/or update most of its
computer hardware and software. The Y2K project team also concluded that
extensive testing would be required of the Bank's data processing company to
determine Y2K compliance. The assessment of the impact of Y2K on existing
customers was determined to be immaterial to the Company. A questionnaire and
information guide was established to assess Year 2000 compliance of future
customers. The costs of Phase I, including salary allocations, were
approximately $50,000.

       Phase II requires all non-compliant hardware and software to be replaced
by May 1999. All of the equipment and software identified in Phase I had been
replaced as of June 30, 1999. The new equipment and software has been re-tested
for compliance as of September 30, 1999. The Company has incurred approximately
$154,000 for Y2K compliance costs, including salary allocations during 1999.

        Phase III requires monitoring and review of Year 2000 issues that may
have been overlooked. Management does not anticipate material costs in Phase
III.

       The Bank's primary supplier of data processing services also has adopted
a Y2K plan and timetable which also consists of three phases. The vendor has
completed Phase I and Phase II. Phase I problems have been corrected. Phase II
included testing key dates such as 12/31/99, 1/1/2000 and 2/29/2000 on a live
data base. The vendor has resolved the discrepancies which were detected during
the testing. Based on representations from its vendor, management anticipates
that the vendor has completed its testing of Phase II Y2K compliance. Also,
based on information developed to date and representations from its data
processing supplier, Phase II testing should have resolved most Y2K issues and
therefore should prevent any material problems which could impact the Company's
business, operations, liquidity, capital resources, or financial condition.

       In a worse case scenario, the vendors providing power to the Company
would fail and the vendors providing data processing services for the Bank would
fail. The Company has adopted and continues to enhance a contingency plan which
includes limited back-up power and manual systems and processing to service
customers. The Bank maintains a paper copy of most Bank documents. Hard copies
of customer records will be printed prior to 1/1/2000 in order to maintain
accurate account information in the event of a power and data processing
failure. In order to plan for an unusually high cash demand, the Bank has
strategically purchased financial instruments and has developed a cash on hand
plan for customer withdrawals to ensure adequate liquidity. Management views Y2K
as an issue which requires on-going assessment. Management will make
assessments, modifications, and corrections to help ensure Y2K compliance.
