NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
September 30, 1996

NOTE 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
  
  The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
  PennRock Financial Services Corp. and its banking subsidiary, Blue Ball
  National Bank.  All material intercompany balances and transactions have been
  eliminated in consolidation.
  
  The information contained in the financial statements is unaudited.  In the
  opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
  accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
  interim periods have been made.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
  information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
  principles for complete financial statements.  Operating results for the nine
  months ended September 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results
  that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1996.
  
  The accounting policies of PennRock Financial Services Corp. and Subsidiary,
  as applied in the consolidated interim financial statements presented, are
  substantially the same as those followed on an annual basis as presented in
  the 1995 Annual Report to shareholders except that, as of January 1, 1996,
  PennRock adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Statement No.
  122, "Accounting for Mortgage Servicing Rights, an Amendment of FASB
  Statement No. 65" as discussed in PennRock's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
  June 30, 1996, and as discussed in Note 3 of this Form 10-Q.  For further
  information on PennRock's accounting policies, refer to the consolidated
  financial statements and footnotes thereto included in PennRock's annual
  report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

NOTE 2. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
  
  The financial statements do not reflect various commitments and contingent
  liabilities, such as commitments to extend credit, letters of credit,
  guarantees, and liability for assets held in Trust, which arise in the normal
  course of business.  Commitments under outstanding letters of credit amounted
  to $8.6 million at September 30, 1996.  Management does not anticipate any
  significant loss as a result of these transactions.

NOTE 3. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
  
  In October, 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
  Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-
  Based Compensation" (SFAS 123).  This statement required a fair value-based
  method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans.  Under SFAS 123,
  entities are permitted to expense the estimated fair value of employee stock
  options or to continue to measure compensation cost for these plans using the
  intrinsic value accounting method as discussed in APB Opinion No. 25.
  PennRock will continue to use the intrinsic value method of accounting for
  stock-based compensation and will provide pro forma disclosures of the fair
  valued-based method in its 1996 annual report.

<PAGE>                                  6
  
  In June 1996, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
  Financial Accounting Standard No. 125 (SFAS 125), "Accounting for Transfers
  and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities."  SFAS
  125 provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing
  of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities based on consistent
  application of a financial-components approach that focuses on control.  It
  distinguishes transfers of financial assets that are sales from transfers
  that are secured borrowings.
  
  Under the financial-components approach, after a transfer of financial
  assets, an entity recognizes all financial and servicing assets it controls
  and liabilities it has incurred and ceases recognition of financial assets it
  no longer controls and liabilities that have been extinguished.  The
  financial-components approach focuses on the assets and liabilities that
  exist after the transfer.  Many of these assets and liabilities are
  components of financial assets that existed prior to the transfer.  If a
  transfer does not meet the criteria for a sale, the transfer is accounted for
  as a secured borrowing with a pledge of collateral.
  
  SFAS 125 extends the "available for sale" or "trading" approach in SFAS 115,
  "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," to non-
  security financial assets that can contractually be prepaid or otherwise
  settled in such a way that the holder of the asset would not recover
  substantially all of its recorded investment.  Thus, non-security financial
  assets (no matter how acquired) that are subject to prepayment risk that
  could prevent recovery of substantially all of the recorded amount are to be
  reported at fair value with the change in fair value accounted for depending
  on the asset's classification as "available-for-sale" or "trading."  SFAS 125
  also amends SFAS 115 to prevent a security from being classified as "held-to-
  maturity" of the security can be prepaid or otherwise settled in such a way
  that the holder of the security would not recover all of its recorded
  investment.
  
  SFAS 125 requires that a liability cease to be recognized if and only if
  either (a) the debtor pays the creditor and is relieved of its obligation for
  the liability or (b) the debtor is legally released from being the primary
  obligor under the liability either judicially or by the creditor.
  
  SFAS 125 is effective for transfers of financial assets and extinguishments
  of liabilities occurring after December 31, 1996 except that the rules
  governing secured borrowing and collateral as well as transfer of financial
  assets for repurchase agreements, dollar rolls and securities lending are
  delayed until years beginning after December 31, 1997.  Earlier or
  retroactive application is not permitted.  Also, the extension of the SFAS
  115 approach to certain non-security financial assets and the amendment to
  SFAS 115 is effective for financial assets held on or acquired after January
  1, 1997.  Currently, management has not determined the impact on PennRock's
  financial statements or the results of operations upon adoption of the
  provision of SFAS 125.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results
          of Operations
  
  This section presents management's discussion and analysis of the financial
  condition and results of operations of PennRock Financial Services Corp. and
  subsidiary, Blue Ball National Bank.  This discussion should be read in
  conjunction with the financial statements which appear elsewhere in this
  report.
  
  Total assets of PennRock increased $8.7 million or 1.6% since the end of 1995
  and by $19.1 million or 3.7% over September 30, 1995.  The increases in
  assets were primarily reflected in increases in loans outstanding as loans
  increased $20.5 million or 6.9% for the year-to-date and by $28.0 million or
  9.8% since last year.  Total securities (measured on an amortized cost basis)
  decreased $10.0 million or 5.2% since year-end and by $10.3 million or 5.3%
  from September 30 last year.
  
  Net income for the current quarter was $1.8 million or $.29 per share
  compared with $1.7 million or $.27 per share for the third quarter of 1995,
  an increase of $120,000 or 7.3%.  Net interest income increased $746,000 from
  the third quarter of 1995 due to volume increases and wider spreads, while
  other income excluding security gains increased $192,000 and other expenses
  increased $884,000.
  
  Dividends declared for the quarter totaled $665,000 or $.11 per share.  This
  represented 37.5% of net income.  Dividends declared during the third quarter
  of last year were $606,000 or $.10 per share.
  
  Net income for the first nine months of 1996 was $5.1 million or $.85 per
  share compared with $4.6 million or $.75 per share for the first nine months
  of 1995, an increase of $578,000 or 12.7%.  Net interest income increased
  $2.3 million from the first nine months of 1995 while other income excluding
  security gains increased $177,000 and other expenses increased $1.8 million.
  
  Dividends declared for the first nine months of 1996 totaled $2.0 million or
  $.33 per share compared with $1.8 million or $.30 per share paid for the same
  period in 1995.  This represented 39.0% of net income in 1996.

NET INTEREST INCOME
  
  Net interest income is the product of the volume of average earning assets
  and the average rates earned on them, less the volume of average interest
  bearing liabilities and the average rates paid on them.  The amount of net
  interest income is affected by changes in interest rates, volumes and the mix
  of earning assets and paying liabilities.  For analytical purposes, net
  interest income is adjusted to a taxable equivalent basis.  This adjustment
  allows for a more accurate comparison among taxable and tax-exempt assets by
  increasing tax-exempt income by an amount equivalent to the federal income
  tax which would have been paid if this income were taxable at the statutory
  rate of 34%.
  
  
<PAGE>                                  8
  
  Table 1 presents net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis for
  the third quarter and first nine months of 1996 and 1995.  For the third
  quarter of 1996, net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis
  totaled $5.7 million, an increase of $691,000 or 13.8% from $5.0 million
  earned for the same period of 1995.  For the first nine months of 1996, net
  interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis totaled $16.9 million, an
  increase of $2.4 million or 16.9% from $14.5 million earned for the first
  nine months of 1995.

</TABLE>
  
  Table 2 presents the average balances, taxable equivalent interest income and
  expense and rates for PennRock's assets and liabilities for the three and
  nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995.  Both the interest rate spread
  and net interest margin are higher in 1996 than in 1995 because rates on
  interest earning assets increased while the average cost of funds declined.
  For the third quarter of 1996 compared with the third quarter of 1995,
  earning asset yields were only 1 basis point higher while rates on paying
  liabilities decreased 46 basis points for the same period.  For the first
  nine months of 1996, earning asset yields were also 1 basis point higher
  while rates on paying liabilities declined 32 basis points from the first
  nine months of 1995.  As a result, PennRock's interest rate spread and net
  interest margins increased 33 basis points and 37 basis points respectively
  during the first nine months of 1996 over the first nine months of 1995.

PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
  
  The provision for loan losses charged to earnings was $151,000 for the third
  quarter of 1996 compared with $110,000 for the third quarter of last year.
  The provision for the first nine months of 1996 was $449,000 compared with
  $289,000 for 1995.  The provision is based on management's estimate of the
  amount needed to maintain an adequate allowance for loan losses.  The
  adequacy of the allowance will continue to be examined in light of past loan
  loss experience, current economic conditions, volume of non-performing and
  delinquent loans and other relevant factors.  The allowance is established at
  a level considered by management to be adequate to absorb potential future
  losses contained in the portfolio and is monitored on a continuous basis with
  independent formal reviews conducted semiannually.  The allowance is
  increased by provisions charged to expense and decreased by net charge-offs.
  Table 3 reflects an analysis of the allowance for loan losses for the third
  quarter and first nine months of 1996 and 1995.

NON-PERFORMING ASSETS
  
  Table 4 reflects PennRock's non-performing assets at September 30, 1996,
  December 31, 1995 and September 30, 1995.  PennRock's policy is to
  discontinue the accrual of interest on loans for which the principal or
  interest is past due 90 days or more unless the loan is well secured and
  corrective action has begun or the loan is in the process of collection.
  When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, any unpaid interest is charged
  against income.  Other real estate owned represents property acquired through
  foreclosure.

LIQUIDITY
  
  The purpose of liquidity management is to ensure that there are sufficient
  cash flows available to meet a variety of needs.  These include financial
  commitments such as satisfying the credit needs of our borrowers and
  withdrawals by our depositors, the ability to capitalize in investment and
  business opportunities as they occur, and the funding of PennRock's own
  operations.  Liquidity is provided by maturities and sales of investment
  securities, loan payments and maturities and liquidating money market
  investments such as federal funds sold.  Liquidity is also provided by short-
  term lines of credit  with various correspondents and fixed and variable rate
  advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh and other
  correspondent banks.  However, PennRock's primary source of liquidity lies in
  PennRock's ability to renew, replace and expand its base of core deposits
  (consisting of demand, NOW, money market, savings, and time deposits of less
  than $100,000).

<PAGE>                                  13
  
  Total deposits increased $20.9 million or 5.0% since year end and $25.6
  million or 6.2% from last year.  Total borrowings decreased $14.4 million or
  25.5% since year end and by $10.0 million or 19.1% from last year.  Table 5

  by comparing the balances at the end of the third quarter of 1996 with year-

CAPITAL RESOURCES:
  
  Total stockholders' equity increased $3.1 million or 6.4% from September 30,
  1995 and $270,000 or .5% since year-end 1995.  Stockholders' equity is
  impacted by changes in the unrealized market gains and losses of the
  securities available for sale portfolio, net of deferred taxes.  At September
  30, 1996 and 1995, this portfolio had net unrealized losses and on December
  31, 1995, the portfolio had a net unrealized profit.
  
  On June 27, 1995, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had
  authorized the purchase of up to 200,000 shares of its outstanding common
  stock.  The shares are to be used for general corporate purposes including
  employee benefit and executive compensation plans or for the dividend
  reinvestment plan.  On June 11, 1996, the Board of Directors extended this
  program for an additional 12 months. Since the program was adopted PennRock
  has repurchased 97,474 shares of which 35,598 shares were held as treasury
  shares as of September 30, 1996.
