adjustments necessary for the fair presentation
of results for such periods. The results of
operations for any interim period are not

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
EARNINGS SUMMARY
Interest Income
For the nine months ended September 30, 1997,
total interest income increased by $555,518
or 3.77% compared to the same period in 1996.
This increase is due to an increase of $696,292
in interest and fees on loans, a decrease in total
interest and dividends on investments of
$175,013 and a $34,239 increase in income
on federal funds sold.
The increase in interest and fees on
loans of $696,292 was primarily due to
an increase in the loan volume during the first
nine months, ended September 30, 1997 of $16,094,874,
and also due to fees and late charges collected.
The increase in interest on federal funds sold of
$34,239 was due to an increase in the amount of
funds sold during the second and part of the third
quarter of 1997. Interest and dividends on investments
decreased due to the net effect of a $236,621
decrease in taxable interest, and a $73,512 increase
in nontaxable interest. In addition, there was a slight
decrease in dividend income of $11,904.
Interest Expense
For the nine months ended September 30, 1997
total interest expense increased $175,941 or
2.93% over the same period in 1996. The
increase in interest expense can be attributed
to the interest paid on time deposits, due to the
increase in volume of such deposits. In
addition, there was an increase in the amount of
interest paid on securities sold under repurchase
agreements due to the increase in volume
of these accounts.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for losses for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 increased
$76,000 from the corresponding period in
1996. This increase reflects an anticipated
rise in consumer loan losses throughout the
remainder of the year.
As of the third quarter of 1997, charge offs
exceeded recoveries by $48,000 compared to
the third quarter of 1996 when recoveries
exceeded charge offs by $36,000. Provisions
to date total $160,000 as compared to
provisions through September 30, 1996 of
$84,000.
Senior Management utilizes several
different methods to determine the adequacy
of the loan loss allowance and to establish
quarterly provisions. Among these methods
is the analysis of the most recent five
year average loss history, the coverage of
non-performing loans provided by the
allowance, an estimate of potential loss in
homogeneous pools of loans and the internal
credit rating assigned to watch and problem
loans.
In addition to the preceding, senior
management also reviews macro portfolio
risks such as the absence of
concentrations, absence of foreign credit
exposure and growth objectives in fine
tuning the allowance and provisions.
The ratio of non-accruing loans and those
accruing but delinquent more than 90 days
(collectively called "non-performing"
loans) to the allowance for loan losses
stood at .45 times at September 30, 1997 a
decrease in coverage from the .42 times at
December 31, 1996. The increase in
non-performing loans occurred mainly in the
commercial loan portfolio. Based upon this analysis
as well as the others noted above, senior
management has concluded that the allowance
for loan losses is adequate.
Other Operating Income
Other operating income for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 increased $2,624,157
This increase is due to the net effect of a
slight increase in service charges collected of
$4,838, an increase in securities gains
realized of $2,606,856 and a slight increase in
other income of $12,463.
The increase in service charges was
a result of an increase in service charges
collected on deposit accounts. The income
generated by the new debit card product
offered to our customers is the primary source of
the $12,463 increase in other income. The primary
increase in other operating income was due to
the increase in securities gains recognized of
$2,606,856. Realized gains were on sales
of bonds that were sold in effort to better
match the Bank's rate-sensitive assets and
rate-sensitive liabilities given the current
economic conditions. In addition, gains
were realized on partial sales of equity securities
that have been in the portfolio long-term
that had reached what management had
determined to be their maximum potential.
Other Operating Expense
For the nine months ended September 30, 1997
total other operating expenses increased $113,640
over the same period in 1996.
Employee salaries and benefits
increased $153,599 as a result of increases in
salary levels and the hiring of additional employees.
Occupancy expense increased $6,175 and
furniture and equipment expense increased
$120,323. The minimal increase in occupancy
expense is the result of a increase in the amount
of maintenance and repairs expense incurred.
The $120,323 increase in furniture and
equipment expense can be attributed to
an increase in the amount of repairs and
maintenance incurred and also to an increase
in depreciation.
Expenses included under the other expenses
heading are such items as: advertising, postage,
maintenance, FDIC, SAIF and other
insurance, Pennsylvania State shares tax,
legal and professional fees, telephone,
printing and supplies and other general and
administrative expenses. Decreases in
other expenses totalled $166,457. As compared
to the first quarter of 1996, FDIC Insurance
declined considerably due to the decrease in
the Bank's "Bank Insurance Fund" assessment
rate. There was also a decrease in the amount
of repairs and maintenance expense on the
foreclosed assets incurred over the first
nine months of 1997 compared to the same period in
1996. These savings, netted against increases
in other expenses, mainly legal, supplies and
Pennsylvania Capital shares tax, account for
the $166,457 decrease in other expenses.
Provision for Income Taxes
Provision for income taxes for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 resulted in an
effective income tax rate of 27.09%
compared to 26.43% for the corresponding
period in 1996. The increase noted is
primarily a result of an increase in the amount
of security gains included in taxable income.
ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT
Assets
At September 30, 1997, cash, federal funds sold,
and investment securities totalled
$83,146,525, or a net decrease of $9,245,748
over the corresponding balance at December
31, 1996. Investment securities and cash
decreased by $8,983,778 and $261,970,
respectively. During this period, net loans
increased by $15,983,007 to $175,836,707.
The decrease in investment securities from
December 31, 1996 to September 30, 1997 can be
attributed to the net effect of various purchases and
sales of investments during the first nine months
with the main transactions being; purchases of
United States Treasury Notes and net sales of
agency and municipal securities.
Management evaluates credit risk,
anticipated economic conditions and other
relevant factors impacting the quality of
the loan portfolio in order to establish an
adequate loan-loss allowance. An internal
credit review committee monitors loans in
accordance with Federal supervisory standards
In addition, management frequently reviews and
utilizes the results of examinations and reports
provided by the committee, regulators, and
independent loan review consultants, on the
adequacy of the loan loss allowance.
Accordingly, on a quarterly basis,
management determines an appropriate
provision for possible loan losses from
earnings in order to maintain allowance
coverage relative to potential losses.
The allowance for loan losses totalled
$2,524,888 at September 30, 1997, an increase of
$111,867 over the balance at December 31,
1996. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997,
the provision for loan losses totalled
$160,000. As a percent of loans, the
allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1997
totalled 1.42% versus 1.49% at December 31,
1996.
Loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis
totalled $866,000 and $748,000 at September
30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 respectively.
Accruing loans, contractually delinquent 90
days or more were $271,000 at September 30,
1997 and $256,000 at December 31, 1996.
These loans are predominately secured by
first lien mortgages on residential real
estate where appraisal values mitigate any
potential loss of interest and principal.
The ratio of non-accruing loans and those
accruing but delinquent more than 90 days to
the allowance for loan losses stood at .45
times at September 30, 1997 and .42 times at
December 31, 1996. Presently the portfolio
has no loans that meet the definition of
"trouble debt restructurings" under FAS 15.
A watch list of potential problem loans is
maintained and updated quarterly by an
internal credit review committee. At this
time there are no credits of substance that
have the potential to become more than 90
days delinquent.
The Bank has not had nor presently has any
foreign outstandings. In addition, no known
concentrations of credit presently exist.
At September 30, 1997 the balance of other real
estate was $130,166 compared to $252,710 at
December 31, 1996. Two properties were
transferred into the account during the first
quarter of 1997 and sold during the third quarter.
In addition, three properties that were on the books
at December 31, 1996 were sold during the first six
months of 1997.
Deposits
At September 30, 1997 total deposits amounted to
$207,062,868 representing an increase of
$4,001,865 or a 1.97% increase from total
deposits at December 31, 1996.
Other Liabilities
At September 30, 1997, other liabilities
totalled $5,097,349 or a $2,993,536 increase
over the balance at December 31, 1996. This
increase is primarily due to an increase in
accrued taxes and accrued expenses.
Capital
The adequacy of the Company's capital is
reviewed on an ongoing basis with reference
to the size, composition and quality of the
Company's resources and regulatory
guidelines. Management seeks to maintain a
level of capital sufficient to support
existing assets and anticipated asset
growth, maintain favorable access to capital
markets and preserve high quality credit
ratings. The capital requirements of the
Pennsylvania Department of Banking are 6%.
The capital requirements of the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation are:
1. Regulatory capital to total assets 6%.
2. Primary capital to total assets 5 1/2%.
At September 30, 1997, regulatory capital to
total assets was 14.76% compared to 12.92%
at December 31, 1996. Primary capital to
total assets at September 30, 1997 was 15.70%
compared to 13.85% at December 31, 1996.
The Federal Reserve Board, the FDIC and the
OCC have issued certain risk-based capital
guidelines, which supplement existing
capital requirements. The guidelines
require all United States banks and bank
holding companies to maintain a minimum
risk-based capital ratio of 8.00% (of which
at least 4.00% must be in the form of common
stockholders' equity). Assets are assigned
to five risk categories, with higher levels
of capital being required for the categories
perceived as representing greater risk. The
required capital will represent equity and
(to the extent permitted) nonequity capital
as a percentage of total risk-weighted
assets. The risk-based capital rules are
designed to make regulatory capital
requirements more sensitive to differences
in risk profiles among banks and bank
holding companies and to minimize
disincentives for holding liquid assets.
Capital is being maintained in compliance
with risk-based capital guidelines.
The Company's Tier 1 Capital to total risk
weighted assets ratio is 20.54% and the
total capital ratio to total risk weighted
assets ratio is 21.79%.
Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity
The asset/liability committee addresses the
liquidity needs of the Bank to see that
sufficient funds are available to meet
credit demands and deposit withdrawals as
well as to the placement of available funds
in the investment portfolio. In assessing
liquidity requirements, equal consideration
is given to the current position as well as
the future outlook.
The following liquidity measures are
monitored and kept within the limits cited.
1. Net Loans to Total Assets, 70% maximum
2. Net Loans to Total Deposits, 85% maximum
3. Net Loans to Core Deposits, 90% maximum
4. Investments to Total Assets, 40% maximum
5. Investments to Total Deposits, 50% maximum
6. Total Liquid Assets to Total Assets, 25% minimum
7. Total Liquid Assets to Total Liabilities, 25% minimum
8. Volatility Liability Dependence Ratio, 10% maximum
The Bank has maintained a liquidity level at or above the
guidelines of the FDIC and the Pennsylvania Department
of Banking. The Bank has available to it Federal Funds
lines of credit totalling $8,000,000 from correspondent banks.
In addition, the Bank has an agreement with the Federal
Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh that enables the Bank
to receive advances up to $80,802,000 for terms of 1
to 120 days under the Federal Home Loan Bank's
"Repo Plus" credit program.
All of the funding mentioned is available to the Bank,
should the need for short-term funds arise.
