NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
June 30, 1997

NOTE 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
  PennRock Financial Services Corp. and its subsidiaries.  All material 
  intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
  
  PennRock Financial Services Corp. (PennRock or the Company) is a bank holding
  company incorporated under the laws of Pennsylvania in 1986.  Blue Ball
  National Bank (the Bank), a wholly owned subsidiary of PennRock, provides a
  broad rang of banking, trust and other financial services to consumers, small
  businesses and corporations in south-central and southeastern Pennsylvania.
  The Bank's mortgage banking subsidiary, Atlantic Regional Mortgage Corporation
  (ARMCO) originates and sells residential first-mortgage loans of various types
  in the Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Washington D.C., Virginia, North
  Carolina and South Carolina markets.

  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 six
  months ended June 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results
  that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1997.

  The accounting policies of PennRock Financial Services Corp. and its 
  subsidiaries, as applied in the consolidated interim financial statements 
  presented, are substantially the same as those followed on an annual basis 
  as presented in the 1996 Annual Report to shareholders except that, as of 
  January 1, 1997, PennRock adopted Statement of Financial Accounting 
  Standard No. 125 (SFAS 125), "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of
  Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities" issued by the Financial 
  Accounting Standards Board in June 1996, as discussed in Note 3 of Form 10-Q
  filed for the first quarter of 1997.  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, 1996.

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 $10.3 million at June 30, 1997.  Management does not anticipate any
  significant loss as a result of these transactions.

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
  subsidiaries.  This discussion should be read in conjunction with the
  financial statements which appear elsewhere in this report.

  Total assets of PennRock increased $65.7 million or 12.0% since the end of 
  1996 and by $63.7 million or 11.4% over June 30, 1996.  The increases in 
  assets were primarily reflected in increases in loans outstanding as loans 
  increased $35.8 million or 11.2% for the year-to-date and by $37.7 million 
  or 11.9% since last year.  Mortgages held for sale and short-term investments
  (primarily federal funds sold) also recorded large increases.  Total 
  securities (measured on an amortized cost basis) decreased $24.6 million or 
  13.1% since year-end and by $32.4 million or 16.6% from June 30 last year.

  Deposits grew $23.0 million or 5.1% since year end and by $50.2 million or
  11.8% from last year.  Total borrowed funds, consisting of short-term
  borrowings and long-term debt, increased $36.1 million since the end of 1996
  and by $4.9 million or 7.6% from June 30, 1996.  Stockholders' equity 
  increased $3.3 million or 6.2% and $7.1 or 14.3% over year end and last year
  respectively.

  Net income for the current quarter was $1.9 million or $.32 per share
  compared with $1.7 million or $.28 per share for the second quarter of 1996,
  an increase of $223,000 or 13.1%.  Net interest income increased $436,000 
  from the second quarter of 1996 due to volume increases and wider spreads, 
  while other income excluding security gains increased $898,000 and other 
  expenses increased $1,471,000.

  Dividends declared for the quarter totaled $729,000 or $.12 per share.  This
  represented 37.8% of net income.  Dividends declared during the second
  quarter of last year were $664,000 or $.11 per share.

  Net income for the first six months of 1997 was $3.8 million or $.63 per
  share compared with $3.4 million or $.55 per share for the first six months
  of 1996, an increase of $469,000 or 13.9%.  Net interest income increased
  $1.8 million from the first six months of 1996 while other income excluding
  security gains increased $1.5 million and other expenses increased $2.3 
  million.

  Dividends declared for the first six months of 1997 totaled $1.5 million or
  $.24 per share compared with $1.3 million or $.22 per share paid for the same
  period in 1997.  This represented 37.9% of net income in 1997.

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 second quarter and first six months of 1997 and 1996.  For the second
  quarter of 1997, net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis
  totaled $6.3 million, an increase of $516,000 or 9.0% from $5.80 million
  earned for the same period of 1996.  For the first six months of 1997, net
  interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis totaled $12.7 million, an
  increase of $1.4 million or 12.7% from $11.2 million earned for the first six
  months of 1996.

  Table 2 presents the average balances, taxable equivalent interest income and
  expense and rates for PennRock's assets and liabilities for the three and six
  months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.  The interest rate spread and net
  interest for the second quarter of 1997 are substantially the same as the
  second quarter of 1996.  Increases in earning asset balances and higher
  yields on earning assets were offset by higher balances and rates on interest
  bearing liabilities.  The tax-equivalent yield on earning assets increased
  24 basis points while the rate on interest-bearing liabilities increased 25
  basis points.  The net interest margin remained the same at 4.42%.

  For the first six months of 1997 compared with the first six months of 1996,
  the yield on earning assets increased 27 basis points while the rate on
  interest-bearing liabilities increased only 2 basis points so that the
  interest rate spread increased 25 basis points.  The net interest margin
  increased 26 basis points.

PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

  The provision for loan losses charged to earnings was $44,000 for the second
  quarter of 1997 compared with $149,000 for the second quarter of last year.
  The provision for the first six months of 1997 was $74,000 compared with
  $298,000 for 1996.  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 second
  quarter and first six months of 1997 and 1996.

NON-PERFORMING ASSETS

  Table 4 reflects PennRock's non-performing assets at June 30, 1997, December
  31, 1996 and June 30, 1996.  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).

CAPITAL RESOURCES:

  Total stockholders' equity increased $7.1 million or 14.3% from June 30, 1996
  and $3.3 million or 6.2% since year-end 1996.  Stockholders' equity is
  impacted by changes in the unrealized market gains and losses of the
  securities available for sale portfolio, net of deferred taxes.  This
  portfolio had net unrealized losses for all periods presented.

  On June 24, 1997, 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.  This is an extension of a open market repurchase program
  which was originally announced in 1995.  Since the program began, PennRock
  has repurchased 128,583 shares of which 12,617 are held as treasury shares as
  of June 30, 1997.
