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


Results of Operations

The following is management's discussion and analysis of the significant changes
in the results of operations, capital resources and liquidity presented in its
accompanying consolidated financial statements for ACNB Corporation, a bank
holding company (the Corporation), and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Adams County
National Bank (the Bank). The Corporation's consolidated financial condition and
results of operations consist almost entirely of the Bank's financial condition
and results of operations. This discussion should be read in conjunction with
the 1995 Annual Report. Current performance does not guarantee, assure, or may
be indicative of similar performance in the future.

Three months ended September 30, 1996 compared to three months ended September
30, 1995

Net Income for the current three month period was $1,883,000, up $201,000 or 12%
above the third quarter of 1995. The increase in net income was due primarily to
a larger volume of earning assets. Net income per share, for the current quarter
was $.36, up $.04 or 13% above the $.32 earned in the comparable period in 1995.

An explanation of the factors and trends that caused changes between the two
periods, by major earnings category, follows.

Total interest income for the current three month period was $8,655,000, up
$509,000 or 6% above the $8,146,000 earned in the same period of 1995. The
$509,000 increase in interest income was due primarily to a larger volume of
earning assets, principally investments in the securities portfolio. The average
volume of securities available-for-sale was $18.4 million more in the current
quarter than in the comparable quarter of 1995, when there were none. In an
effort to manage interest rate risk, the Bank purchased $35 million of mortgage
backed securities classified as available-for-sale. Income from loans during the
current period was constrained by moderate loan demand and competitive
pressures.

Total interest expense for the current three month period was $3,838,000, up
$125,000 or 3% above the $3,713,000 incurred for the same period in 1995. The
$125,000 increase in interest expense was due primarily to a larger volume of
interest bearing deposits, principally time deposits. The average volume of
interest bearing deposits was $9.5 million higher in the current quarter
compared to the same quarter in 1995.

Net interest income for the current three month period was $4,817,000, up
$384,000 or 8.7% above the $4,433,000 earned in the same period of 1995. The
increase in current period net interest income was achieved primarily from a
larger average volume of earning assets.

Total non-interest income for the current three month period at $568,000, was
$176,000 greater than the same quarter in 1995. This was due to a strong quarter
in the Trust Department caused by an unusual number of estate settlements and
income adjustments consisting of a reversal of $37,000 in expenses related to a
community reinvestment project at the holding company level.





                                     Page 8


<PAGE>



Total non-interest expense for the current three month period was $2,576,000, up
$252,000 or 10.8% greater than the $2,324,000 incurred for the third quarter of
1995.

The provision for income taxes in the current quarter increased $107,000 or
13.1% due to a higher level of pretax earnings.

Nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to nine months ended September 30,
1995

Net income for the first nine months of 1996 was $5,119,000, up $426,000 or 9.1%
above the $4,693,000 earned for the same period of 1995. The increase in net
income was due primarily to a larger volume of earning assets and a reduction in
FDIC deposit insurance expense. See below for a discussion of changes to the
FDIC fund. Earnings per share, was $.97 on September 30, 1996, compared to $.88
on September 30, 1995. For the nine month period (annualized) of 1996, the
return on average assets (ROA) and return on average equity (ROE) were 1.48% and
14.31%, respectively, compared to 1.36% and 12.52%, respectively, for 1995.

At September 30, 1996, total assets were approximately $488 million, reflecting
a $32 million or 7% increase above September 30, 1995. As explained more fully
under Capital Management section, book value per share was $9.13 on September
30, 1996, compared to $9.54 on June 30, 1995. (The Corporation's capital
remained sound as evidenced by a Tier I Risked-Based Capital Ratio of 17.7% and
a Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio of 19.0% on September 30, 1996.)

Total interest income for the current nine month period was $25,079,000, up
$1,132,000 or 4.7% above the $23,947,000 earned in the same period of 1995. The
$1,132,000 increase in total interest income was due primarily to a larger
volume of earning assets, principally loans in the first half, due to improved
loan demand, and securities growth in the third quarter.

Total interest expense for the current nine month period was $11,258,000, up
$577,000 or 5.4 % above the $10,681,000 incurred for the same period in 1995.
The $577,000 increase in total interest expense was due primarily to a larger
volume of interest bearing deposits, principally time deposits. The year to date
average volume of interest bearing deposits increased approximately $7.1 million
or 2.1% above the same period of 1995.

Net interest income was $13,821,000 for the current period, up $555,000 or 4.2%
above the first nine months in 1995. Income from a larger volume of investment
securities out paced funding costs. The net yield on average earning assets was
4.18% for the current nine month period compared to 4.04% for the same period in
1995.

Total non-interest income for the current nine month period was $1,399,000, up
$231,000 or 20% above the same period in 1995. Improvement was in all major
categories but centered mainly in the Trust Department, which was up $116,000,
caused by greater activity in estate settlements.

Total non-interest expense for the current nine month period was $7,595,000, up
$126,000 or 1.7% above the $7,469,000 incurred for the same period in 1995. The
small increase in total non-interest expense was primarily the result of a
$460,000 reduction in FDIC deposit insurance expense. On September 30, 1996, the
President signed into law the Deposit Insurance Funds Act of 1996, contained in
Subtitle G, Section 2702 of the Defense Appropriations Bill, to remedy the large
disparity of insurance premiums paid by savings institutions for deposit
insurance under the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF") administered by
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") in comparison to the premiums
paid by banks for deposit insurance under the Bank Insurance Fund (("BIF") also
administered by the FDIC. In order to recapitalize the SAIF and remedy the
disparity in premiums for deposit insurance, the following has been enacted: the
payment of a one-time special assessment of 69 cents per $100 of deposits by
SAIF institutions; the merger of SAIF

                                     Page 9



<PAGE>

and BIF into the Deposit Insurance Fund ("DIF"), if there are no insured savings
associations on January 1, 1999; and the payment by BIF institutions of a
currently estimated 1.29 cents per $100 of deposits for 1997, 1998 and 1999 in
order to share the FICO costs (the costs representing the bonds which were
floated in connection with the bailout). Based on current deposit levels,
Management expects that the increase in the FDIC Assessment rate will impact
results of operations in a currently estimated amount of $51,000 for 1997.

In addition to the reduction in current period FDIC deposit insurance expenses,
salaries and benefits expense increased $264,000 due to normal merit raises and
planned staff additions and furniture and equipment expense increased $135,000
due to shorter depreciation schedules as the rapid pace of change in technology
continues.

The provision for income taxes was $2,506,000 for the current period, up
$234,000 above the same period in 1995 due to a higher level of pretax earnings.

Net Yield on Earning Assets                             4.18%           4.04%

Net Yield on Earning Assets is the difference, stated in percentages, between
the interest earned on loans and other investments and the interest paid on
deposits and other sources of funds. The Net Yield on Earning Assets is one of
the best analytical tools available to demonstrate the effect of interest rate
changes on the Corporation's earning capacity.

The Net Yield on Earning Assets, for the first nine months of 1996, was up 14
basis points compared to the same period in 1995. This is a result of improved
yields on government securities and a larger volume of earning assets.

to total assets was .94% at 9/30/96. All properties are carried at the lower of
market or book value and are not considered to represent significant threat of
loss to the bank.

Loans past due 90 days and still accruing were $2,620,000 at year end 1995 while
non-accruals stood at $1,303,000. The bulk of the Corporation's real estate
loans are in owner occupied dwellings but it is hoped that internal loan review
procedures will be effective in recognizing and helping correct any real estate
lending problems that may occur due to current economic conditions. Interest not
accrued, due to an average of $1,269,000 in non-accrual loans, was approximately
$86,000 for the first nine months of 1996.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it
is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due. Impaired
loans are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows,
discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, or as a practical expedient,
at the loan's observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the
loan is collateral dependent. If the measure of the impaired loan is less than
its recorded investment a creditor must recognize an impairment by creating, or
adjusting, a valuation allowance with a corresponding charge to loan loss
expense. The Corporation uses the cash basis method to recognize interest income
on loans that are impaired. All of the Corporation's impaired loans were on a
non-accrual status for all reported periods.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

Total Shareholders' Equity amounted to $48,582,000 at 9/30/96 compared to
$50,735,000 at 9/30/95, a decrease of $2,153,000 or 4% over that period. The
ratio of Total Shareholders' Equity to Total Assets was 11.13% at 9/30/95,
11.20% at 12/31/95, and 9.96% at 9/30/96. The total risk-based capital ratio was
18.95% at 9/30/96. The reduction in the capital ratios from year end 1995 to
9/30/96 was caused by the special dividend of $1.00 per share paid in January
1996.

LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

The Corporation's liquidity is adequate. Liquid assets (cash and due from banks,
federal funds sold, money market instruments, and investment securities maturing
within one year) equal 11.7% of total assets at 9/30/96. This mix of assets
would be readily available for funding any cash requirements. In addition, the
Bank has an approved line of credit of $221,000,000 at the Federal Home Loan
Bank of Pittsburgh.

As of 9/30/96, the cumulative asset sensitive gap was 11% of total assets at one
month, 11.8% at six months, and 24.4% at one year. Adjustable rate mortgages,
which have an annual interest rate cap of 2%, are considered rate sensitive.
Passbook savings and NOW accounts are carried in the one to five year category
while half of money market deposit accounts are spread over the four to twelve
month category and the other half are shown to mature in the one to three year
category.

directors retired, effective June 30, 1996, and were appointed Director
Emeritus, effective July 1, 1996. The four directors were: C. F. Ditzler,
J. Glenn Guise, Charles E. Ritter and Ralph W. Tyson.
