(dollars in thousands)
1. Accounting Policies
The information contained in this report is unaudited and is
subject to future adjustments. However, in the opinion of management, the
information reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of
results for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 and
1997.
The accounting policies of Community Banks, Inc. and subsidiaries,
as applied in the consolidated interim financial statements presented herein,
are substantially the same as those followed on an annual basis as presented
on page 9 of the 1997 Annual Report to shareholders.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" establishes standards for
recording derivative financial instruments on the balance sheet at their fair
value. This Statement requires changes in the fair value of derivatives be
recorded each period in current earnings or other comprehensive income,
depending on whether a derivative is designated as part of a hedge
transaction and, if it is, the type of hedge transaction. Management
anticipates that the adoption of SFAS 133 will not have a significant effect
on the Corporation's financial condition or results of operations.

the collateral and the historical creditworthiness of the borrower and/or guarantors are
considered by management in assessing the collectibility of such amounts.
Impaired Loans
At June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997 the Corporation recorded no investment in
impaired loans or related valuation allowance. For the six month periods ended June 30, 1998
and 1997 the average balance of impaired loans was negligible. In addition, the Corporation
recognized no interest on impaired loans on the cash basis for the six month periods ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997.

4. Statement of Cash Flows
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks and
federal funds sold. The company made cash payments of $2,660,000 and
$1,532,000 and $12,627,000 and $11,053,000 for income taxes and interest,
respectively, for each of the six month periods ended June 30, 1998 and
1997.
Excluded from the consolidated statements of cash flows for the
periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 was the effect of certain non-cash
activities. The company acquired real estate through foreclosure totalling
$626,000 and $598,000, respectively. The company also recorded a decrease in
deferred tax liabilities of $150,000 in 1998. A decrease in deferred tax
assets of $49,000 and an increase in deferred tax liabilities of $16,000
were recognized in 1997. These variations related to the effects of changes
in the net unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities available for
sale.

Community Banks, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Results of Operations
Net interest income after provision for loan losses for the first
Six months of 1998 was $1,397,000 or 10.9% greater than 1997. Total
interest income for the first six months increased $1,964,000 or 7.8%
while total interest expense increased $823,000 or 7.0% over the
comparable period of 1997. The amount of net interest income and total
interest income are dependent upon many factors including the volume of
earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, the level of and
changes in interest rates and levels of non-performing assets. The cost
of interest bearing liabilities changes with the amount of funds
necessary to support earning assets, the rates paid to attract and
maintain deposits, rates paid on borrowed funds and the level of
non-interest bearing demand deposits and equity capital. The increases
in net interest income and total interest income were impacted by an
increase in average earning assets of approximately $57,827,000 or 9.3%
while average interest bearing liabilities increased $59,280,000 or
10.7% for the first six months of 1998 over the comparable period of
1997. Impacting the increase in average earning assets were increases in
average loan balances of 8.4%. The average yields realized on earning
assets for the first six months approximated 8.2% and 8.3% in 1998 and
1997, respectively. The average costs of interest-bearing liabilities
approximated 4.1% and 4.2%, respectively. Net interest margins, on a tax
equivalent basis for the first six months approximated 4.6% and 4.8% in
1998 and 1997, respectively. The provision for loan losses charged to
income decreased 37.6% in 1998. Total loans past due 90 days and still
accruing interest, non-performing loans, and other real estate
approximated $5,848,000 and $6,950,000, respectively, as of June 30,
1998 and June 30, 1997. The balance of the allowance for loan losses
increased from $5,894,000 at June 30, 1997 to $6,495,000 at June 30,
1998.
Total other income for the first six months of 1998 was $279,000 or
13.2% more than total other income for the first six months of 1997.
Affecting this change were increases in service charges on deposit
accounts and other service charges, commissions, and fees of $175,000.
In addition, security gains of $343,000 and $477,000 were recognized in
1998 and 1997, respectively. Gains recognized on mortgage sales totalled
$284,000 and $102,000 in 1998 and 1997, respectively. Loans held for
sale are comprised for the most part of fixed-rate real estate and
education loans extended specifically for resale. Demand for these
products has been greater in 1998 than 1997. Loans held for sale as of
June 30, 1998 totalled $2,667,000. The market value of these loans
approximated book value at that time.
Total other expenses for the first six months of 1998 increased
$834,000 or 9.3%. Contributing factors were increases of $479,000 or
10.5% in salaries and employee benefits, $115,000 or 7.9% in net
occupancy expense, and $205,000 or 7.4% in other operating expense.
These increases were affected by the opening of new banking offices and
the recognition of certain retirement plan obligations.
The provision for income taxes increased $156,000 or 9.0% for the
first six months of 1998 in comparison to the first six months of 1997.
Affecting this change was an increase in the relative amount of tax-free
income in 1998. The effective tax rates approximated 28.1% and 29.5% for
the respective periods.
The previously described factors contributed to a net increase of
$686,000 or 16.5% in net income for the six month period ended June 30,
1998.
The significant changes and related causes which occurred during
the three month period ending June 30, 1998 were generally consistent
with those described for the six month period ending June 30, 1998.
Investment security gains declined in the second quarter of 1998. Gains
on mortgage sales were $142,000 and $62,000, respectively, for the three
month periods ending June 30, 1998 and 1997.

Management's Discussion, Continued
Financial Condition
The Corporation's financial condition can be examined in terms of
developing trends in its sources and uses of funds. These trends are the
result of both external environmental factors, such as changing economic
conditions, regulatory changes and competition, and internal
environmental factors such as Management's evaluation as to the best use
of funds under these changing conditions.

Management's Discussion, Continued
As of June 30, 1998 cash and due from banks was $8,168,000 or 29.2%
less than it was at December 31, 1997. Interest-bearing time deposits in
other banks and investment securities increased $14,943,000 or 6.7%
while fed funds sold increased $2,375,000. The approximate market value
of debt securities was $2,400,000 greater than amortized cost at June
30, 1998. The approximate market value of debt securities was $2,437,000
greater than amortized cost at December 31, 1997. Securities to be held
for indefinite periods of time and not intended to be held to maturity
or on a long-term basis are classified as available for sale and carried
at market value. Securities held for indefinite periods of time include
securities that management intends to use as part of its asset/liability
management strategy and that may be sold in response to changes in
interest rates, resultant prepayment risk and other factors related to
interest rate and resultant prepayment risk changes. At June 30, 1998
and December 31, 1997, management classified investment securities with
amortized costs and market values of $230,690,000 and $235,154,000, and
$214,379,000 and $219,284,000, respectively, as available for sale. Net
loans increased $14,655,000 or 3.3% from December 31, 1997 to June 30,
1998. Affecting this change were increases in real estate loans of
$8,649,000 and consumer loans of $2,019,000. Commercial loans increased
$3,604,000 during the period. The allowance for loan losses approximated
1.42% and 1.41% of net loans at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997.
Much of the increase in net premises and equipment of $433,000 related
to new banking offices. Goodwill continues to be amortized at an
annualized rate of $240,000. As previously noted, Community Banks, Inc.
sells only fixed-rate real estate and education loans specifically
designated for resale on the secondary market and at June 30, 1998 and
December 31, 1997 these loans totalled $2,667,000 and $2,641,000,
respectively. Affecting the increase of $1,986,000 in accrued interest
receivable and other assets was an increase in prepaid expenses and
deferred taxes. These factors contributed to an increase of $26,009,000
or 3.6% in total assets from December 31, 1997 to June 30, 1998.
Total deposits increased $3,830,000 or 0.7% from December 31, 1997
to June 30, 1998. Most of this increase can be attributed to increases
in savings deposits. It is management's philosophy to generally maintain
competitive but not overly-aggressive interest rates relative to
interest-bearing liabilities.
Management decreased short-term borrowings and increased long-term
debt in 1998 in an attempt to better balance rate sensitive assets and
liabilities and enhance earnings through more effective use of equity.
At June 30, 1998 long-term debt totalling $105,407,000 included
borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh of $81,000,000
and repurchase agreements totalling $20,000,000 at a weighted average
interest rate of 5.56%.
Based on a one year interval, rate sensitive assets to rate
sensitive liabilities approximated 95% as of June 30, 1998.

Management's Discussion, Continued
As of June 30, 1998 the Corporation had risk-based capital in
excess of the fully implemented regulatory requirements, and tier 1 plus
tier 2 capital approximated 16% of risk-weighted assets.
Liquidity
Liquidity is the ratio of net liquid assets to net liabilities. The
primary functions of asset/liability management are the assurance of
adequate liquidity and maintenance of an appropriate balance between
interest-sensitive earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
Liquidity management refers to the ability to meet the cash flow
requirements of depositors and borrowers.
A continuous review of net liquid assets is conducted to assure
appropriate cash flow to meet needs and obligations in a timely manner.
There was an adequate relationship of liquid assets to short-term
liabilities at June 30, 1998
Forward Outlook
Management is unaware of any regulatory recommendations which, if
implemented, would have a material effect on the liquidity, capital
resources, or operations of CBI. Adequate loan demand is anticipated for
the remainder of 1998 and management will continue to carefully evaluate
this demand based on the creditworthiness of the borrower and the
relative strength of the economy in the Corporation's market.
The Corporation is anticipating the maintenance of a favorable net
interest margin throughout the remainder of 1998.
