                                     SUMMARY

     On March 10, 1999, Philadelphia Suburban Corporation ("PSC"
or the "Company") and Consumers Water Company ("CWC") completed a
merger (the "Merger") whereby CWC was merged with and into a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Merger was effected
pursuant to the June 27, 1998 merger agreement, which was amended and
restated by the parties effective August 5, 1998. The Merger was
completed after the transaction received the approvals from the state
utility commissions in each state in which the companies operate. The
shareholders of each company approved the Merger at special meetings
held on November 16, 1998. Pursuant to the merger agreement, the
Company issued 13,014,015 shares of common stock in exchange for all
of the outstanding stock of CWC. CWC common shareholders received
1.432 shares of the Company's Common Stock for each CWC common share
and CWC preferred shareholders received 5.649 shares of the Company's
Common Stock for each preferred share. The Merger has been accounted
for as a pooling-of-interests under Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 16. CWC serves approximately 226,000 customers in service
territories covering parts of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, New Jersey
and Maine.

              UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL DATA

     The following historical financial information of PSC and CWC for fiscal
years 1998, 1997 and 1996 presented herein has been derived from the audited
consolidated financial statements of PSC and CWC and includes pro forma
adjustments to give effect as if the Merger had been completed as of the
beginning of the earliest period presented. For purposes of financial reporting,
the Merger has been accounted for under the pooling-of-interests method of
accounting. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of PSC and CWC have been
recorded at their historical amounts. This information is not necessarily
indicative of the financial results that would have occurred had the Merger been
consummated on the dates for which the Merger is being given effect, or the
merged companies' future financial results.

Description of Transaction and Basis of Presentation

     On March 10, 1999, PSC and CWC completed a Merger whereby CWC was merged
with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Merger was effected
pursuant to the June 27, 1998 merger agreement, which was amended and restated
by the parties effective August 5, 1998. The Merger was completed after the
transaction received the approvals from the state utility commissions in each
state in which the companies operate. The shareholders of each company approved
the Merger at special meetings held on November 16, 1998.

     Pursuant to the merger agreement, the Company issued 13,014,015 shares of
common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding stock of CWC on March 10,
1999. CWC common shareholders received 1.432 shares of the Company's Common
Stock for each CWC common share and CWC preferred shareholders received 5.649
shares of the Company's Common Stock for each preferred share. The Merger has
been accounted for as a pooling-of-interests under Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 16 and accordingly, PSC's historical consolidated financial
statements subsequent to the Merger will be restated to include the accounts and
results of CWC.

Financial Statement Classifications
