(a) The  determination  to discontinue the accrual of interest on  nonperforming
loans is made on the  individual  case basis.  Such factors as the character and
size of the loan, quality of 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 March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the Corporation  recorded no investment
in impaired loans or related  valuation  allowance.  For the three month periods
ended  March 31,  2000 and 1999,  the  average  balance  of  impaired  loans was
negligible.  In addition,  the  Corporation  recognized  no interest on impaired
loans on the cash basis for the three  month  periods  ended  March 31, 2000 and
1999.

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 $1,005,000  and $680,000 and $9,131,000
and  $7,224,000  for income taxes and  interest,  respectively,  for each of the
three month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999.

Excluded  from the  consolidated  statements of cash flows for the periods ended
March 31,  2000 and 1999 was the  effect of  certain  non-cash  activities.  The
company acquired real estate through foreclosure totaling $285,000 and $303,000,
respectively.  The company  also  recorded a decrease in deferred  tax assets of
$315,000 in 2000.  A decrease  in  deferred  tax  liabilities  of  $235,000  was
recognized in 1999.  These  variations  related to the effects of changes in net
unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities available for sale.

Management's Discussion, Continued

Results of Operations

The most significant  component of operating revenue is net interest income. Net
interest  income is the interest  income  generated by earning assets reduced by
the interest expense  applicable to  interest-bearing  liabilities.  Appropriate
management  of  this   relationship  in  varying   interest  rate  and  economic
environments is critical to the Corporation.

Net interest  income after  provision for loan losses for the first three months
of 2000 was $1,027,000 or 13.4% greater than 1999. Total interest income for the
first three months  increased  $2,788,000 or 18.0% while total interest  expense
increased  $1,721,000 or 22.9% over the comparable period of 1999. The amount of
net  interest  income and total  interest  income are  dependent on 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  $107,720,000 or 13.1% while average interest-bearing  liabilities
increased  $122,388,000  or 16.7%  for the first  three  months of 2000 over the
comparable  period of 1999.  Impacting the increase in average earning assets in
2000 was an increase in average taxable investment  securities of $27,934,000 or
13.2%.  Also affecting earning assets were increases in average loan balances of
$76,732,000  or  14.8%.  Affecting  the  increase  in  average  interest-bearing
liabilities  were decreases in average savings  deposits of $10,261,000 or 4.0%,
increases in average time deposits of  $102,459,000  or 32.7%,  and increases in
average  long-term debt of $33,066,000 or 20.5%.  The average yields realized on
earning assets for the first three months approximated 8.2% and 8.0% in 2000 and
1999,   respectively.   The  average  costs  on   interest-bearing   liabilities
approximated 4.3% and 4.2% in 2000 and 1999, respectively. Net interest margins,
on a tax equivalent basis for the first three months  approximated 4.2% and 4.3%
in 2000 and 1999, respectively.  The provision for loan losses charged to income
increased  $40,000  or 14.5% in 2000.  Total  loans  past due 90 days and  still
accruing  interest,  non-performing  loans,  and other real estate  approximated
$4,988,000  and  $4,943,000,  respectively,  as of March 31, 2000 and 1999.  The
balance of the allowance for loan losses  increased from $7,111,000 at March 31,
1999 to $7,586,000 at March 31, 2000.

Total other income for the first three months of 2000 was $261,000 or 17.9% more
than total  other  income for the first  three  months of 1999.  Affecting  this
change  were  increases  in trust  department  income  of  $66,000  or 88.0% and
increases  in service  charges on deposit  accounts and other  service  charges,
commissions,  and fees of $352,000 or 56.3%. These changes reflect  management's
continuing emphasis on sources of non-interest income. Investment security gains
increased  $15,000  or 9.8% in 2000  while  gains on  mortgage  sales  decreased
$211,000 or 76.4%. Insurance premium income decreased $56,000 or 25.2% while all
other income increased  $95,000 or 88.8%.  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 lower in 2000 than
1999.  Loans held for sale as of March 31, 2000 totaled  $3,804,000.  The market
value of these loans approximated book value at that time. The increase in other
income was affected by tax refunds.

Total other  expenses for the first three months of 2000  increased  $726,000 or
13.0%.  Contributing factors were increases of $499,000 or 17.1% in salaries and
employee benefits,  $182,000 or 22.0% in net occupancy expense,  and $126,000 or
7.5% in other operating expense. These increases were affected by the opening of
new  banking  offices  and  the  employment  of  additional  lending  and  trust
personnel.

The provision for income taxes increased  $143,000 or 16.6% for the three months
of 2000 in comparison to the first three months of 1999.  Affecting  this change
was a  decrease  in the  amount  of  tax-free  income  recognized  in 2000.  The
effective tax rates approximated 24.5% and 24.4% for the respective periods.

The previously  described  factors  contributed to a net increase of $419,000 or
15.6% in net income for the three month period ended March 31, 2000.

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 March 31, 2000 cash and due from banks was $44,000 or .2% less than it was
at  December  31,  1999.  Interest-bearing  time  deposits  in other  banks  and
investment  securities  increased  $20,228,000  or 6.4%  while  fed  funds  sold
increased  $6,895,000.  The  approximate  market  value of debt  securities  was
$15,959,000  less than amortized cost at March 31, 2000. The approximate  market
value of debt  securities was  $17,357,000  less than amortized cost at December
31, 1999.  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 March 31, 2000 and  December 31, 1999,
management  classified  investment  securities  with amortized  costs and market
values of $348,984,000  and  $333,195,000  and  $328,763,000  and  $312,075,000,
respectively,  as available for sale.  Net loans  increased  $14,718,000 or 2.5%
from December 31, 1999 to March 31, 2000.  Affecting  this change were increases
in real estate loans of  $8,754,000  or 2.3%,  consumer  loans of  $2,920,000 or
2.8%, and commercial  loans of $2,456,000 or 2.4%. The allowance for loan losses
approximated  1.26% and 1.27% of net loans at March 31,  2000 and  December  31,
1999, respectively.  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  March  31,  2000 and  December  31,  1999  these  loans  totaled
$3,804,000 and $4,004,000, respectively. Affecting the increase of $1,056,000 in
accrued  interest  receivable and other assets were increases in bank owned life
insurance  of  $2,459,000  and deferred tax assets  associated  with  unrealized
securities  losses of  $315,000.  These  factors  contributed  to an increase of
$43,248,000 or 4.5% in total assets from December 31, 1999 to March 31, 2000.

Total deposits increased $45,034,000 or 6.5% from December 31, 1999 to March 31,
2000.  Contributing  to this increase  were  increases of $7,061,000 or 12.8% in
demand deposits, $16,103,000 or 6.0% in savings deposits and $21,870,000 or 5.9%
in total time  deposits.  New  certificate  of  deposit  products  affected  the
significant increase in time deposits.

At March 31, 2000 long-term debt totaling  $192,000,000 included borrowings from
the  Federal  Home  Loan  Bank of  Pittsburgh  of  $182,000,000  and  repurchase
agreements totaling $10,000,000 at a weighted average interest rate of 5.39%.

Based on a one year interval,  the relationship of rate sensitive assets to rate
sensitive liabilities approximated 92% as of March 31, 2000.

As of March 31, 2000 the  Corporation  had  risk-based  capital in excess of the
fully  implemented  regulatory  requirements,  and  tier 1 plus  tier 2  capital
approximated 12% 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.

Management's Discussion, Continued

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 March 31, 2000.

Forward Outlook

Management is unaware of any regulatory  recommendations  which, if implemented,
would have a material effect of the liquidity,  capital resources, or operations
of Community Banks,  Inc.  Adequate loan demand is anticipated for the remainder
of 2000 and management will continue to carefully  evaluate this demand based on
the creditworthiness of the borrower and 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 2000.

Other Events

On March 31, 1998, Community Banks Inc. (Community)  completed its merger of The
Peoples State Bank  (Peoples).  Peoples had six banking  offices located in York
and Adams Counties,  Pennsylvania.  Community  issued 1,325,330 shares of common
stock for all the  outstanding  common  stock of Peoples.  The  transaction  was
accounted  for as a  pooling  of  interests  and  combined  unaudited  financial
information is included in this report.
