1.   Basis of Presentation
     ---------------------

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
     MetroBanCorp and its wholly-owned affiliate, MetroBank (together,

     statements contain all the normal and recurring adjustments necessary to
     present fairly the consolidated financial condition of Metro as of June
     30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, and the results of its operations and
     cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.

     These financial statements should be read in conjunction with Metro's
     latest Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ending December 31,
     1997.

3.   Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
     -----------------------------------

     As of June 30, 1998, Metro had investments in loans which are impaired in
     accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard Nos. 114 and
     118 of $326,000. Of this amount, $319,000 had no related specific
     allowance. The remaining $7,000 of impaired loans were fully reserved.

     Metro's policy for recognizing income on impaired loans is to accrue
     earnings until a loan is classified as impaired. For loans which receive
     the classification of impaired during the current period, interest
     accrued to date is charged against current earnings. All payments
     received on a loan which is classified as impaired are utilized to reduce
     the principal outstanding.


                                      7
<PAGE>

     For the six months ended June 30, 1998, the average balance of impaired
     loans was $121,000. Additionally, there was $10,000 in interest income
     earned on these loans during the first six months of 1998.

4.   Comprehensive Income
     --------------------

     During the first quarter of 1998, Metro adopted Statement of Financial
     Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income."
     Comprehensive Income is defined as the change in equity of a business
     enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and
     circumstances from nonowner sources. It includes all changes in equity
     during a period except those resulting from investment by owners and
     distributions to owners. In Metro's case, comprehensive income includes
     net income and unrealized gains and losses on available for sale
     securities. Total comprehensive income was $245,000 and $205,000 for the
     three month period ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Total
     comprehensive income was $422,000 and $337,000 for the six month period
     ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

5.   Per Share Data
     --------------

     Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by
     the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each
     year. Net income per common share, assuming full dilution, is computed as
     above except that the denominator is increased to include the number of
     additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive
     potential common shares (stock options) had been issued. Below is a table
     reconciling basic net income per common share and net income per common
     share assuming full dilution:

               ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
               -----------------------------------------------
                FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                ---------------------------------------------

The following management discussion is presented to provide information
concerning the consolidated financial condition of Metro as of June 30, 1998
as compared to December 31, 1997, and the results of operations for the three
and six month periods ending June 30, 1998 and 1997.


FINANCIAL CONDITION

At June 30, 1998, Metro had total assets of $132.4 million, an increase of
$7.7 million or 6.2 percent from December 31, 1997. This increase is due to an
increase in interest bearing deposits.

Consolidated earning assets totaled to $120.5 million, or 91.0 percent of
total assets, at June 30, 1998. The principal components of earning assets
were loans in the amount of $78.6 million or 65.2 percent of total earning
assets, and investment securities of $33.7 million or 28.0 percent of total
earning assets. Earning assets at December 31, 1997 were $112.8 million, or
90.5 percent of total assets.

LOANS
- -----

Total gross loans outstanding increased $1.3 million or 1.6 percent from
December 31, 1997 to June 30, 1998. This growth is a result of increased
indirect consumer lending and growth in the commercial loan portfolio. The
overall loan demand has been relatively steady in Metro's market area.

CAPITAL
- -------

Metro's total capital increased by a net amount of $249,000 or 2.1 percent
during the first six months of 1998. Metro's earnings in the first six months
of 1998 amounted to $427,000. The net unrealized gain on investment securities
available for sale amounted to $37,000 at June 30, 1998, decreasing by $5,000
or 11.9 percent since December 31, 1997. Capital decreased by $172,000 in 1998
following the payment of a $.05 quarterly cash dividend in the months of March
and June, 1998.

During the first quarter of 1998, the Board of Directors of Metro declared a
five percent stock dividend issuable April 6, 1998 to shareholders of record
as of March 18, 1998. Fractional shares resulting from the stock dividend were
paid in cash. As a result, there were 84,017 shares issued, bringing the new
number of common shares outstanding to 1,765,308. A transfer from accumulated
earnings equity account to the common stock equity account in the amount of
$924,000 followed the stock dividend issuance.

Metro is subject to various capital requirements imposed by the federal
banking agencies. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure
capital adequacy require Metro to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total
Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets, and
Tier 1 capital to average assets. Management believes, as of June 30, 1998,
that Metro meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject. The
following table sets forth the actual and minimum capital amount and ratios of
Metro and the Bank as of June 30, 1998 (dollars in thousands):

</TABLE>

As of December 31, 1997, the most recent notification from the FDIC
categorized the Bank as "well capitalized" under the regulatory framework for
prompt corrective action. To be categorized as "well capitalized", the Bank
must maintain minimum total risk-weighted, Tier 1 capital and leverage ratios
as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since the FDIC
notification that management believes have changed Metro's or the Bank's
capital categories.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


NET INTEREST INCOME
- -------------------

Net interest income after provision for loan losses was $2.6 million for the
six months ending June 30, 1998, compared to $2.3 million for the comparable
period of 1997, an increase of 11.1 percent. Net Interest income increased
principally due to growth in earning assets in 1998. The Bank's provision for
loan loss expense was $149,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998,
compared to $67,000 for the same period in 1997. The provision made in 1998
was a level considered necessary by management to absorb estimated losses in
the loan portfolio and is based upon an assessment of the adequacy of the
Bank's loan loss reserve account.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
- --------------------

Non-interest expense amounted to $2.3 million for the six month period ending
June 30, 1998, compared to $2.2 million for the same period in 1997.
