PART I

Item 1.  Business

       Description of Business

       FNB Financial Corporation (the Company), a Pennsylvania
       business corporation, is a bank holding company registered
       with and supervised by the Board of Governors of the Federal
       Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve Board").  The Company
was
       incorporated on June 22, 1987 under the business corporation
       law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for the purpose of
       becoming a bank holding company.  Since commencing
operations,
       the Company's business has consisted primarily of managing
and
       supervising The First National Bank of McConnellsburg (the
       Bank) and its principal source of income has been dividends
       paid by the Bank.  The Company has one wholly-owned
       subsidiary, the Bank.  

       The Bank was established in 1906 as a national banking
       association under the supervision of the Comptroller of the
       Currency, the Comptroller.  The Bank is a member of the
       Federal Reserve System and customers' deposits held by the
       Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
       to the maximum extent permitted by law.  The Bank is engaged
       in a full service commercial and consumer banking business
       including the acceptance of time and demand deposits and the
       making of secured and unsecured loans.  The Bank provides its
       services to individuals, corporations, partnerships,
       associations, municipalities and other governmental bodies.
       As of January 1, 1997, the Bank had three (3) offices and (1)
       drive-up ATM located in Fulton County and one branch
       office facility located in Fort Loudon, Franklin County
       Pennsylvania.  During 1995 the Bank received regulatory
       approval from The Comptroller to purchase and assume the
       deposits, real estate and building of the Fort Loudon Branch
       Office of Dauphin Deposit Bank located in Franklin County,
       Pennsylvania.  Due to the location of this office, management
       and the Board felt the acquisition of this office was
       strategically important in order to officially expand the
       Bank's market area into the Franklin County, PA area and
       diversity its current primary market of Fulton County, PA. 
It
       is anticipated this office will generate new loan and deposit
       demand for the Bank in the coming years.  During 1996 the
Bank
       received regulatory approval from The Comptroller to open its
       first interstate Branch office in Hancock, Maryland after
       management became aware of the closing of a branch office of
       First Federal Savings Bank of Western Maryland.  This office
is
       known as "Hancock Community Bank, A Division of The First
       National Bank of McConnellsburg".  The location of this
office
       is felt to be strategically important in order to expand the
       Bank's operations into Washington County, Maryland and
northern
       Morgan County, West Virginia.  This office will also be the
       Bank's first supermarket branch office.  As soon as the owner
of
       the adjacent supermarket completes extensive renovations, the
       wall between the branch office and the supermarket will be
       removed, allowing customers to enter the branch directly from
       the supermarket.  This office is expected to enhance demand
for
       the Bank's loan and deposit products as well as retain
deposits
       of customers in southern Fulton County, Pennsylvania.
    
       The Bank received permission from the Comptroller to
       expand its main office facilities in downtown McConnellsburg
       to allow for larger customer service, loan department and
data
       processing areas.  This expansion was completed on September
1,
       1996 at a cost of approximately $1,700,000. The Bank
       has one wholly-owned subsidiary, First Fulton County
Community
       Development Corporation, which is a Community Development
       Corporation formed under 12USC24/2CFR24 whose primary
       regulator is the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency,
       The Comptroller. The First Fulton County Community
Development
       Corporation was incorporated with the Commonwealth of
       Pennsylvania on May 30, 1995.  The primary business of this
       community development corporation is to provide and promote
       community welfare through the establishment and offering of
       low interest rate loan programs to stimulate economic
       rehabilitation and development for the Borough of
       McConnellsburg and the entire community of Fulton County, PA.

       Competition

       The Bank's primary market area includes all of Fulton County
       and portions of Huntingdon, Bedford and Franklin Counties,
       portions of Washington County, Maryland and portions of
Morgan
       County, West Virginia.  The Bank's major competitor is a one
       bank holding company headquartered in McConnellsburg,
       Pennsylvania which has 4 branches located throughout Fulton
and
       Huntingdon Counties.  As of December 31, 1996, the Bank was
       ranked second in total deposits when compared to its major
       competitor.  Also, in this market area the Bank competes with
       regionally-based commercial banks (all of which have greater
       assets, capital and lending limits), savings banks, savings
and
       loan associations, money market funds, insurance companies,
       stock brokerage firms, regulated small loan companies, credit
       unions and with issuers of commercial paper and other
       securities.

       Although deregulation has allowed the Bank to become more
       competitive in the market place in regard to pricing of loan
       and deposit rates, there are disparities in taxing law which
       give some of its nonbank competitors advantages which
       commercial banks do not enjoy and many burdensome and costly
       regulations with which it must comply.  These challenges are
       met by the bank developing and promoting its locally-owned
       community bank image; by offering friendly and professional
       customer service; and by striving to maintain competitive
       interest rates for both loans and deposits.

       Regulation and Supervision

       The operations of the Company are subject to the provisions
of
       the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "Bank
       Holding Company Act"), and to supervision by the Federal
       Reserve Board.  The Bank Holding Company Act requires the
       Company to secure the prior approval of the Federal Reserve
       Board before it owns or controls, directly or indirectly,
more
       than five percent (5%) of the voting shares of substantially
       all of the assets of an institution, including another bank.
       The Bank Holding Company Act prohibits acquisition by the
       Company of more than five percent (5%) of the voting shares
       of, or interest in, all or substantially all of the assets of
       any bank located outside of Pennsylvania unless such
       acquisition is specifically authorized by the laws of the
       state in which such bank is located.

       The operations of the Bank are subject to federal and state
       statutes applicable to banks chartered under the banking laws
       of the United States, to members of the Federal Reserve
System
       and to banks whose deposits are insured by the FDIC.  The
       operations of the Bank are also subject to regulations of the
       Comptroller, the Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC.  The
       primary supervisory authority of the Bank is the Comptroller,
       which regulates and examines the Bank.  The Comptroller has
       authority to prevent national banks from engaging in unsafe
or
       unsound practices in conducting their businesses.

       Legislation and Regulatory Changes

       From time to time, legislation is enacted which has the
effect
       of increasing the cost of doing business, limiting or
       expanding permissible activities or affecting the competitive
       balance between banks and other financial institutions.
       Proposals to change the laws and regulations governing the
       operations and taxation of banks, bank holding companies and
       other financial institutions are frequently made in Congress,
       and before various bank regulatory agencies.  No prediction
       can be made as to the likelihood of any major changes or the
       impact such changes might have on the Company and its
       subsidiary, the Bank.  Certain changes of potential
       significance to the Company which have been enacted recently
       are discussed below.

       The Federal Reserve Board, the FDIC and the Comptroller have
       issued 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 8.0% (of which at least
       3.0% 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.  On
the
       basis of an analysis of the rules and the projected
       composition of the Company's consolidated assets, it is not
       expected these rules will have a material effect on the
       Company's business and capital plans.  The company presently
       has capital ratios exceeding all regulatory requirements.

       The Financial Institution Reform, Recovery and Enforcement
Act
       of 1989 ("FIRREA") was enacted in August 1989.  This law was
       enacted primarily to improve the supervision of savings
       associations by strengthening capital, accounting and other
       supervisory standards.  In addition, FIRREA reorganized the
       FDIC by creating two deposit insurance funds to be
       administered by the FDIC:  the Savings Association Insurance
       Fund and the Bank Insurance Fund.  Customers' deposits held
by
       the Bank are insured under the Bank Insurance Fund.  FIRREA
       also regulated real estate appraisal standards and the
       supervisory/enforcement powers and penalty provisions in
       connection with the regulation of the Bank.

       In December 1991 the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
       Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA") became law.  Under FDICIA,
       institutions must be classified, based on their risk-based
       capital ratios into one of five defined categories (well
       capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized,
       significantly undercapitalized and critically
       undercapitalized) as outlined below:

</TABLE>
       *3.0% for those banks having the highest available regulatory
rating.

       Under FDICIA financial institutions are subject to increased
       regulatory scrutiny and must comply with certain operational,
       managerial and compensation standards to be developed by   
       Federal Reserve Board Regulations.  FDICIA also required the
       regulators to issue new rules establishing certain minimum
       standards to which an institution must adhere including
       standards requiring a minimum ratio of classified assets to
       capital, minimum earnings necessary to absorb losses and
       minimum ratio of market value to book value for publicly held
       institutions.  Additional regulations are required to be
       developed relating to internal controls, loan documentation,
       credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth and
       excessive compensation, fees and benefits.

       Annual full-scope, on-site examinations are required for all
       FDIC-insured institutions except institutions with assets
       under $100 million which are well capitalized, well managed
       and not subject to a recent change in control, in which case,
       the examination period is every eighteen (18) months.  FDICIA
       also required banking agencies to reintroduce loan-to-value
       ("LTV") ratio regulations which were previously repealed by
       the 1982 Act.  LTV's will limit the amount of money a
       financial institution may lend to a borrower, when the loan
is
       secured by real estate, to no more than a percentage to be
set
       by regulation of the value of the real estate.

       A separate subtitle within FDICIA, called the "Bank
Enterprise
       Act of 1991", requires "truth-in-savings" on consumer deposit
       accounts so that consumers can make meaningful comparisons
       between the competing claims of banks with regard to deposit
       accounts and products.  Under this provision which became
       effective on June 21, 1993, the Bank is required to provide
       information to depositors concerning the terms and fees of
       their deposit accounts and to disclose the annual percentage
       yield on interest-bearing deposit accounts. 

       Neither the Company nor the Bank anticipate compliance with
       environmental laws and regulations will have any material
       effect on their respective capital, expenditures, earnings,
or
       competitive position.

       Employees

       As of December 31, 1996, the Company and the Bank employed 52
       persons on a full-time equivalent basis.

       December 31, 1996, is incorporated herein by reference.

       Loan Portfolio

       The Bank makes loans to both individual consumers and
       commercial entities.  The types offered include auto,
       personal, mortgage, home equity, school, home repair, small
       business, commercial, and home construction loans.  Within
       these loans types, the Bank makes installment loans, which
       have set payments allowing the loan to be amortized over a
       fixed number of payments, demand loans, which have no fixed
       payment and which are payable in full on demand and are
       normally issued for a term of less than one year, and
mortgage
       loans, which are secured with marketable real estate and have
       fixed payment amounts for a pre-established payment period.
       The Bank does not assume undue risk on any loan within the
       loan portfolio, and takes appropriate steps to secure all
       loans as necessary.

       The Bank has adopted the following loan-to-value ratios, in
       accordance with standards adopted by its bank supervisory
       agencies:

</TABLE>

       The Bank is neither dependent upon nor exposed to loan
       concentrations to a single customer or to a single industry,
       the loss of any one or more of which would have a material
       adverse effect on the financial condition of the Bank;
       however, a portion of the Bank's customers' ability to honor
       their contracts is dependent upon the construction and land
       development and agribusiness economic sector.  As a majority
       of the Bank's loan portfolio is comprised of loans to
       individuals and businesses in Fulton County, PA, a
significant
       portion of the Bank's customers' abilities to honor their
       contracts is dependent upon the general economic conditions
in
       South Central Pennsylvania.

       Loan Portfolio composition as of December 31, 1996, and
       December 31, 1995, on page 12 of the annual shareholders
       report for the year ended December 31, 1996, is incorporated
       herein by reference.
     
       Maturities of loans as of December 31, 1996, on page 12 of
the
       annual shareholders report for the year ended December 31,
       1996, is incorporated herein by reference.

       Nonperforming loans consist of nonaccruing loans and loans 90
       days or more past due.  Nonaccruing loans are comprised of
       loans that are no longer accruing interest income because of
       apparent financial difficulties of the borrower.  Interest on
       nonaccruing loans is recorded when received only after past
       due principal and interest are brought current.  The general
       policy of the Bank is to classify loans as nonaccrual when
       they become past due in principal and interest for over 90
       days and collateral is insufficient to allow continuation of
       interest accrual.  At that time, the accrued interest on the
       nonaccrual loan is reversed from the current year earnings
and
       interest is not accrued until the loan has been brought
       current in accordance with contractual terms.  Nonaccrual
loan
       volume in 1996 more than doubled than that of 1995 and 1994.
       This increase in volume is attributable to two entities, a
       farming operation in Franklin County, Pennsylvania, the
amount
       of which is approximately $400,000, and a personal residence
       in Fulton County, Pennsylvania the amount of which is
       approximately $187,000.  The farm loan is collateralized by a
       first mortgage position on the farm property, a 90% Farm
       Service Agency (an agency of the U. S. Government) guarantee,
as
       well as, all machinery, equipment and livestock, of which the
       value of all collateral exceeds the outstanding balance.
       The personal loan is collateralized by a residential
       property and 145 acres in Fulton County, Pennsylvania for
which
       the value of the property exceeds the outstanding balance of
the
       loan.  Management is working with both of these customers,
but
       anticipates the farm loan to remain delinquent for the
       foreseeable future.  Management does anticipate the personal
       residence loan to be brought current within the next six
months.
     
       Nonaccrual volume for 1997 is expected to remain rather
constant
       and anticipated charge-offs for 1996 is expected to be
       approximately the same as in 1996 and in 1995, approximately
       $85,000 to $108,000.

       Nonaccrual, Past Due and Restructured Loans as of December
31,
       1996, December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, on pages 12
and
       13 of the annual shareholders report for the year ended
December
       31, 1996, are incorporated herein by reference.

       Allowance for Loan Loss Analysis

       The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level to
       absorb potential future loan losses contained in the loan
       portfolio and is formally reviewed by Management on a
       quarterly basis.  The allowance is increased by provisions
       charged to operating expense and reduced by net charge-offs.
       Management's basis for the level of the allowance and the
       annual provisions is its evaluation of the loan portfolio,
       current and projected domestic economic conditions, the
       historical loan loss experience, present and prospective
       financial condition of the borrowers, the level of
       nonperforming assets, best and worst case scenarios
       of possible loan losses and other relevant factors.  While
       Management uses available information to make such
       evaluations, future adjustments of the allowance may be
       necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from
the
       assumptions used in making the evaluation.  Loans are charged
       against the allowance for loan losses when Management
believes
       that the collectability of the principal is unlikely.

       Activity in the allowance for loan losses and a breakdown of
       the allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 1996, and
       December 31, 1995, on page 12 of the annual shareholders
       report for the year ended December 31, 1996, are incorporated
       herein by reference.

       Although loans secured by 1-4 family residential mortgages
       comprise approximately 53% for the entire loan portfolio,
       these mortgages have historically resulted in little or no
       loss.  The allocation of the Allowance for Loan Losses for
       these mortgages is based upon this historical fact.

       Deposits
         
       Time Certificates of Deposit of $100,000 and over as of
       December 31, 1996, and December 31, 1995, totaled $8,581,000
       and $9,530,000 respectively.

       Maturities and rate sensitivity of total interest bearing
       liabilities as of December 31, 1996, on page 28 of the annual
       shareholders report for the year ended December 31, 1996, is
       incorporated herein by reference.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

Board of Directors
FNB Financial Corporation
McConnellsburg, Pennsylvania

    We have audited the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets of FNB Financial Corporation and its wholly-
owned subsidiary as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
related consolidated statements of income, changes in
stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three
years ended December 31, 1996.  These consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Corporation's
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

    We conducted our audits in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards.  Those standards
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated
financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated
financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

    In our opinion, the consolidated financial
statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of FNB Financial
Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995 and the results of their
operations and cash flows for each of the three years ended
December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1.  Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations

FNB Financial Corporation's primary activity
consists of owning and supervising its subsidiary,
The First National Bank of McConnellsburg, which is
engaged in providing banking and bank related
services in South Central Pennsylvania, and
Northwestern Maryland. Its four offices are located
in McConnellsburg (2), Fort Loudon and Needmore,
Pennsylvania, and Hancock, Maryland.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the corporation and its wholly-owned
subsidiary, The First National Bank of
McConnellsburg.  All significant intercompany
transactions and accounts have been eliminated.

During 1995 First Fulton County Community
Development Corporation (FFCCDC) was formed as a
wholly-owned subsidiary of The First National Bank
of McConnellsburg.  The purpose of FFCCDC is to
serve the needs of low-to-moderate income
individuals and small business in Fulton County
under the Community Development and Regulatory
Improvement Act of 1994.  FFCCDC has not had any
development activity and to date has been an
inactive corporation.

Basis of Accounting

The Corporation uses the accrual basis of
accounting.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period.  Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
- -23-


Note 1.  Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Material estimates that are particularly
susceptible to significant change relate to the
determination of the allowance for losses on loans
and the valuation of real estate acquired in
connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of
loans.  In connection with the determination of the
allowances for losses on loans and foreclosed real
estate, management obtains independent appraisals
for significant properties.

While management uses available information to
recognize losses on loans and foreclosed real
estate, future additions to the allowances may be
necessary based on changes in local economic
conditions.  In addition, regulatory agencies, as
an integral part of their examination process,
periodically review the Corporation's allowances
for losses on loans and foreclosed real estate.
Such agencies may require the corporation to
recognize additions to the allowances based on
their judgments about information available to them
at the time of their examination.  Because of these
factors, management's estimate of credit losses
inherent in the loan portfolio and the related
allowance may change in the near term.

Cash Flows

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the
Corporation has defined cash and cash equivalents
as those amounts included in the balance sheet
captions "Cash and Due From Banks" and "Federal
Funds Sold".  As permitted by Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 104, the
Corporation has elected to present the net increase
or decrease in deposits in banks, loans and time
deposits in the Statements of Cash Flows.

Investment Securities

In accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards Number 115 (SFAS 115) the
Corporation's investments in securities are
classified in three categories and accounted for as
follows:

- -24-


Note 1.  Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

d   Trading Securities.  Securities held principally
    for resale in the near term are classified as
    trading securities and recorded at their fair
    values.  Unrealized gains and losses on trading
    securities are included in other income.

d   Securities to be Held to Maturity.  Bonds and
    notes for which the Corporation has the positive
    intent and ability to hold to maturity are
    reported at cost, adjusted for amortization of
    premiums and accretion of discounts which are
    recognized in interest income using the interest
    method over the period to maturity.

d   Securities Available for Sale.  Securities
    available for sale consist of bonds and notes
    not classified as trading securities nor as
    securities to be held to maturity.  These are
    securities that management intends to use as a
    part of its asset and liability management
    strategy and may be sold in response to changes
    in interest rates, resultant prepayment risk and
    other related factors.

Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of tax, on
securities available for sale are reported as a net
amount in a separate component of shareholders'
equity until realized.

Gains and losses on the sale of securities
available for sale are determined using the
specific-identification method.

Fair values for investment securities are based on
quoted market prices.

The Corporation had no trading securities in 1996
or 1995.

Federal Reserve Bank, Atlantic Central Banker's   
 Bank, and Federal Home Loan Bank Stock

These investments are carried at cost.  The
Corporation is required to maintain minimum
investment balances in these stocks, which are not
actively traded and therefore have no readily
determinable market value.
- -25-


Note 1.  Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Other Real Estate Owned

Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu
of, loan foreclosure are to be sold and are
initially recorded at the lower of carrying value
or fair value of the underlying collateral.  After
foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed
by management and the real estate is carried at the
lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to
sell.  Legal fees and other costs related to
foreclosure proceedings are expensed as they are
incurred.

Loans and Allowance for Possible Loan Losses

Loans are stated at the amount of unpaid principal,
reduced by unearned discount, deferred loan
origination fees, and an allowance for loan losses.
Unearned discount on installment loans is
recognized as income over the terms of the loans by
the interest method.  Interest on other loans is
calculated by using the simple interest method on
daily balances of the principal amount outstanding.
The allowance for loan losses is established
through a provision for loan losses charged to
expense.  Loans are charged against the allowance
for loan losses when management believes that the
collectibility of the principal is unlikely.  The
allowance is an amount that management believes
will be adequate to absorb possible losses on
existing loans that may become uncollectible, based
on evaluations of the collectibility of loans and
prior loan loss experience.  The evaluations take
into consideration such factors as changes in the
nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall
portfolio quality, review of specific problem
loans, and current economic conditions that may
affect the borrowers' ability to pay.

In accordance with SFAS No. 91, loan origination
fees and certain direct loan origination costs are
being deferred and the net amount amortized as an
adjustment of the related loan's yield.  The
Corporation is amortizing these amounts over the
contractual life of the related loans.

- -26-


Note 1.  Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Nonaccrual Loans

The accrual of interest income on loans ceases when
principal or interest is past due 90 days or more
and collateral is inadequate to cover principal and
interest or immediately if, in the opinion of
management, full collection is unlikely.  Interest
accrued but not collected as of the date of
placement on nonaccrual status is reversed and
charged against current income unless fully
collateralized.  Subsequent payments received
either are applied to the outstanding principal
balance or recorded as interest income, depending
on management's assessment of the ultimate
collectibility of principal.

Bank Building, Equipment, Furniture and Fixtures  
 and Depreciation

Bank building, equipment, furniture and fixtures
are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation.
Expenditures for replacements are capitalized and
the replaced items are retired. Maintenance and
repairs are charged to operations as incurred. 
Depreciation is computed based on straight-line and
accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives

Federal Income Taxes

As a result of certain timing differences between
financial statement and federal income tax
reporting, deferred income taxes are provided in
the financial statements.  See Note 8 for further
details.

Advertising

The corporation follows the policy of charging
costs of advertising to expense as incurred. 
Advertising expense was $ 64,979, $ 41,439 and
$ 51,916 for 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
107, Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial
Instruments, requires disclosure of fair value
information about financial instruments, whether or
not recognized in the balance sheet.  In cases
where quoted market prices are not available, fair
values are based on estimates using present value
or other valuation techniques.  Those techniques
are significantly affected by the assumptions used,
including the discount rate and estimates of future
cash flows.  In that regard, the derived fair value
estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to
independent markets and, in many cases, could not
be realized in immediate settlement of the
instruments.  Statement No. 107 excludes certain
financial instruments and all nonfinancial
instruments from its disclosure requirements. 
Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts
presented do not represent the underlying value of
the Corporation.

The following methods and assumptions were used by
the Corporation in estimating fair values of
financial instruments as disclosed herein:

d   Cash and Cash Equivalents.  The carrying amounts
    of cash and short-term instruments approximate
    their fair value.


- -28-


Note 1.  Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

d   Securities to be Held to Maturity and Securities
    Available for Sale.  Fair values for investment
    securities are based on quoted market prices.

d   Loans Receivable.  For variable-rate loans that
    reprice frequently and have no significant
    change in credit risk, fair values are based on
    carrying values.  Fair values for fixed rate
    loans are estimated using discounted cash flow
    analyses, using interest rates currently being
    offered for loans with similar terms to
    borrowers of similar credit quality.  Fair
    values for impaired loans are estimated using
    discounted cash flow analyses or underlying
    collateral values, where applicable.

d   Deposit Liabilities.  The fair values disclosed
    for demand deposits are, by definition, equal to
    the amount payable on demand at the reporting
    date (that is, their carrying amounts).  The
    carrying amounts of variable-rate certificates
    of deposit, and fixed-term money market accounts
    approximate their fair values at the reporting
    date.  Fair values for fixed-rate certificates
    of deposits and IRA's are estimated using a
    discounted cash flow calculation that applies
    interest rates currently being offered to a
    schedule of aggregated expected monthly
    maturities on time deposits.

d   Accrued Interest.  The carrying amounts of
    accrued interest approximate their fair values.

d   Off-Balance-Sheet Instruments.  The Bank
    generally does not charge commitment fees.  Fees
    for standby letters of credit and other off-
    balance-sheet instruments are not
    significant.

During 1995 the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) issued Supplemental Guidance regarding
the implementation of SFAS No. 115 Accounting for
Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.
In connection with this supplemental guidance the
FASB provided a one-time opportunity for
institutions to redesignate their security
classifications without "tainting" any of their
investment pools.

After extensive review of the Corporation's
security portfolio on December 27, 1995 management
moved $ 5,072,833 of securities classified as held-
to-maturity to the available for sale
classification and accordingly carries these
securities at their market value.  No securities
were moved from the available for sale
classification to the held-to-maturity
classification and no securities were classified as
trading.  The justifications for this movement were
based upon the following considerations:

1)  Regulatory rulings which have stated the          
         available for sale mark-to-market adjustment      
         will not impact regulatory risk-based capital     
         positions;

    2)   The strong liquidity position of the Corporation
              based upon its security maturity ladder;
    mortgage-backed securities, SBA GLPCs and loan
    principal paydowns; availability of a line of
    credit from the Federal Home Loan Bank; and
    availability of the Federal Reserve Discount
    Window;

    3)   The holding of and investment in certain          
              adjustable rate securities for interest rate
    management purposes;

    4)   The need to have certain fixed rate securities,
              both taxable and tax-free, available for future
    sale and tax swap opportunities.

The amortized cost and fair values of debt
securities available for sale and held to maturity

Impairment of loans having a recorded investment of

conformity with SFAS No. 114 as amended by SFAS No.
118.  The average recorded investment in impaired
loans during 1995 was $ 161,000.  The total
allowance for loan losses related to this loan was
less than $ 1,000 at December 31, 1995 due to the
fact that management feels the loan is adequately
collateralized.  Interest income on impaired loans
of $ 10,924 was recognized for cash payments
received in 1995.  The underlying collateral for
this loan was sold and the loan paid off in 1996. 
There were no impaired loans in 1996 or 1994.

The Bank had two loans classified as restructured
troubled loans.  These loans were restructured in
accordance with agreements with bankruptcy courts
regarding the terms of repayments and interest
rates.  One loan was restructured during the second
quarter of 1991 and had a high balance when
restructured of approximately $ 225,000 and had a
balance at December 31, 1995 of $ 152,312.  This
loan is secured with a first mortgage position on
real estate and had performed in accordance with
its restructured terms until the third quarter of
1995 at which time it became three months past due.
This loan was paid off in 1996.  The other loan was
restructured in the second quarter of 1992.  This
loan had a high balance of approximately $ 41,000
when restructured and had a balance of $ 5,382 at
December 31, 1996.  This loan is secured with a
first mortgage position on real estate and has
performed in accordance with restructured terms
since the date of restructure.

       Applicable income tax $ 218,019 $ 253,781 $ 165,976
</TABLE>
    Federal income taxes were computed after adjusting
    pretax accounting income for nontaxable income in
    the amount of $ 633,813, $ 590,029 and $ 454,128
    for 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

    A reconciliation of the effective applicable income
    tax rate to the federal statutory rate is as
    follows:

</TABLE>

Note 8.  Income Taxes (Continued)

    The corporation has not recorded a valuation
    allowance for the deferred tax assets as they feel
    that it is more likely than not that they will be
    ultimately realized.

Note 9.  Employee Benefit Plan

The Bank has a 401-K plan which covers all
employees who have attained the age of 20 and who
have completed six months of full-time service. 
The plan provides for the Bank to match employee
contributions to a maximum of 5% of annual
compensation.  The Bank also has the option to make
additional discretionary contributions to the plan
based upon the Bank's performance and subject to
approval by the Board of Directors.  The Bank's
total expense for this plan was $ 65,644, $ 49,800,
and $ 41,475 for the years ended December 31, 1996,
1995 and 1994, respectively.

Note 10. Deposits

                   $ 50,957,962
</TABLE>
The Bank accepts deposits of the officers,
directors and employees of the corporation and its
subsidiary on the same terms, including interest
rates, as those prevailing at the time for
comparable transactions with unrelated persons. 
The aggregate dollar amount of deposits of
officers, directors and employees totaled
$ 4,284,064 and $ 4,000,558 at December 31, 1996
and 1995, respectively.

Note 11. Financial Instruments With Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with
off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of
business to meet the financial needs of its
customers and to reduce its own exposure to
fluctuations in interest rates.  These financial
instruments include commitments to extend credit
and standby letters of credit.  Those instruments
involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit
and interest rate risk in excess of the amount
recognized in the balance sheets.  The contract
amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of
involvement the Bank has in particular classes of
financial instruments.

The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of
nonperformance by the other party to the financial
instrument for commitments to extend credit and
standby letters of credit is represented by the
contractual amount of those instruments.  The Bank
uses the same credit policies in making
commitments and conditional obligations as it does
for on-balance-sheet instruments.

                   $ 6,889   $ 6,876
</TABLE>
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to
lend to a customer as long as there is no
violation of any condition established in the
contract.  Commitments generally have fixed
expiration dates or other termination clauses and
may require payment of a fee.  Since many of the
commitments are expected to expire without being
drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not
necessarily represent future cash requirements. 
The Bank evaluates each customer's
creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.  The
amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary
by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on
management's credit evaluation of the customer. 
Collateral held varies but may include accounts
receivable, inventory, real estate, equipment, and
income-producing commercial properties.

Standby letters of credit are conditional
commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the
performance of a customer to a third party.  Those
guarantees are primarily issued to support public
and private borrowing arrangements.  The credit
risk involved in issuing letters of credit is
essentially the same as that involved in extending
loans to customers.  The Bank holds collateral
supporting those commitments when deemed necessary
by management.

Note 12. Concentration of Credit Risk

The Board grants agribusiness, commercial and
residential loans to customers located in South
Central Pennsylvania and Northwestern Maryland. 
Although the Bank has a diversified loan

Note 12. Concentration of Credit Risk (Continued)

portfolio, a portion of its customers' ability to
honor their contracts is dependent upon the
construction and land development and agribusiness
economic sectors.

The Bank evaluates each customer's
creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.  The
amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary
by the Bank upon the extension of credit is based
on management's credit evaluation of the customer.
Collateral held varies but generally includes
equipment and real estate.

Note 13. FNB Financial Corporation (Parent Company Only)   
           Financial Information (Continued)


Dividends paid by FNB Financial Corporation are
generally provided from the dividends it receives
from the Bank.  The Bank, as a National Bank, is
subject to the dividend restrictions set forth by
the Comptroller of the Currency.  Under such
restrictions, the Bank may not, without prior
approval of the Comptroller of the Currency,
declare dividends in excess of the sum of the
current year's earnings (as defined) plus the
retained earnings (as defined) from the prior two
years.  The dividends that the Bank could declare
without the approval of the Comptroller of the
Currency amounted to approximately $ 2,904,720 and
$ 2,751,249 and at December 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.

FNB Financial Corporation's balance of retained
earnings at December 31, 1996 is $ 8,628,183 and
would be available for cash dividends, although
payment of dividends to such extent would not be
prudent or likely.  The Federal Reserve Board,
which regulates bank holding companies,
establishes guidelines which indicate that cash
dividends should be covered by current period
earnings.

Note 14. Compensating Balance Arrangements

Required deposit balances at the Federal Reserve
were $ 80,000 for 1996 and 1995.  Required deposit
balances at Atlantic Central Banker's Bank were
$ 282,000 and $ 279,000 at December 31, 1996 and
1995, respectively.  These balances are maintained
to cover processing costs and service charges.

    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
    OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    The following section presents a discussion and
analysis of the financial condition and results of operations
of FNB Financial Corporation (the Corporation) and its wholly-
owned subsidiary, The First National Bank of McConnellsburg
(the Bank).  This discussion should be read in conjunction
with the financial tables/statistics, financial statements and
notes to financial statements appearing elsewhere in this
annual report.
    
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
    
Overview
    Consolidated net income for 1996 was $ 957,185, a
decrease of $ 44,579 or 4.45% from the net income of
$ 1,001,764 for 1995.  On a per share basis, net income for
1996 was $ 2.39, based upon average shares outstanding of
400,000, compared to $ 2.51 for 1995.

    Results of operations for 1996 as compared to 1995
were impacted by the following items: (1) net income was
positively impacted by a 11.64% increase in average earning
assets which was driven by a 14.51% increase in average
deposits, the result of the purchase of the Fort Loudon Branch
of Dauphin Deposit Bank on November 13, 1995, which increased
total deposits $ 5,533,477; (2) net income was negatively
impacted by a decreasing net interest margin which occurred
due to an increase in the reliance on interest income from the
purchases of lower yielding investment securities which offset
deposits purchased at the Fort Loudon office instead of higher
yielding loans while deposit rates remained relatively the
same; (3) net income was positively impacted by the
capitalization of $ 43,805 interest expense incurred during
the renovation/construction of the main office facility; (4)
net income was positively impacted by a decrease in FDIC
Insurance assessment expenses of $ 82,969 due to the
implementation of minimum FDIC Insurance assessments of
$ 2,000 as a direct result of the FDIC Insurance
capitalization fund exceeding 1.25% of all insured deposits;
(5) net income was negatively impacted by a $ 20,796 increase
in the annual provision for loan losses due to charge-offs
during the year which mandated an increase in the annual
provision; (6) net income was negatively impacted by an
increase in wage and salary expenses of $ 148,947 and employee
benefits of $ 41,473 due to: a) three full time employees and
1 part time employee hired for the operation of the Fort
Loudon Office acquired in November 1995; b) two full time and
four part time employees hired for the operation of the Bank's
- -53-


first interstate office, Hancock Community Bank, opened on
November 25, 1996 in Hancock, Maryland; c) wage and salary
increases during 1995; and d) increased participation in the
Bank's health care and retirement plans; (7) net income was
negatively impacted by a $ 34,938 increase in net occupancy
expenses as a result of the addition of the Fort Loudon
office, the Hancock Community Bank office and the
renovation/expansion of the main office which was completed on
September 1, 1996; (8) net income was negatively impacted by
the amortization of the cost of the Fort Loudon deposit
acquisition in the amount of $ 52,863, a $ 23,540 increase in
advertising/promotional expenses as a result of increased
advertising campaigns to promote the Fort Loudon Office and
the opening of Hancock Community Bank, a $ 18,083 increase in
the cost of data, voice and Automated Teller machine
communication expenses as a main result of the Fort Loudon and
Hancock Community Bank offices, a $ 13,300 increase in
professional development expenses due to the training costs of
new employees and attendance of banking association
conventions, the ninetieth anniversary celebration
stockholder's banquet of approximately $ 10,000, a $ 12,692
increase in supplies expenses due to the additional new
accounts acquired at the Fort Loudon Office and start-up
supplies for the Hancock Office, and a $ 4,844 increase in
postage costs due to increased account holders as a result of
the Fort Loudon acquisition; and (9) net income was positively
impacted by a $ 35,762 decrease in the current year income tax
provision resulting from a general decrease in taxable income
in relation to tax-free income.

    Net income as a percent of total average assets for
1996, also known as return on assets (ROA), was 1.00% compared
to 1.19% for 1995.  Net income as a percent of average
stockholders' equity for 1996, also known as return on equity
(ROE), was 9.18% compared to 10.26% for 1995. The ROA and ROE
for these periods were impacted by the factors discussed in
the preceding paragraphs. 

    During 1996 management became aware of the closing
of a branch office of First Federal Savings Bank of Western
Maryland, in Hancock, Maryland.  As the Board of Directors had
targeted for several years the Hancock market as a future site
for expansion purposes, management felt it prudent to pursue
this opportunity.  Although there are other branch offices of
banks and savings and loans in Hancock, Maryland, there were
no locally-owned community bank offices, and had not been
since the late 1970s and early 1980s when both local banks
were taken over by large out-of-the-area, removed-from-the-
community bank holding companies.  Management felt it wise to
pursue the "nitch" of providing community banking to the
- -54-


Hancock community and supporting the needs of the community
while reinforcing the Bank's ability to maintain and service
its current accounts in the southern part of Fulton County,
Pennsylvania.

    The location of this branch office known as,
Hancock Community Bank, A Division of The First National Bank
of McConnellsburg, in the Hancock Shopping Center became
reality when The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency,
the Bank's primary regulator, gave permission for the Bank to
open this office on November 25, 1996.  This office, the
Bank's first interstate branch office, is also unique in that
it will also be the Bank's first supermarket branch office. 
As soon as the owner of the adjacent supermarket completes
extensive renovations, the wall between the branch office and
the supermarket will be removed, allowing customers to enter
the branch directly from the supermarket.  The operation of
this office is anticipated to increase operational overhead
due to the costs of personnel, equipment and furniture
expenses, utilities and rent expense; however, the long term
benefits from this office through the generation of new
deposits and loans are anticipated to increase income to the
Corporation over the next several years.

Net Interest Income

    Net interest income is the amount by which interest
income on loans and investments exceeds interest incurred on
deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities.  Net interest
income is the Corporation's primary source of revenue.  The
amount of net interest income is affected by changes in
interest rates and by changes in the volume and mix of
interest-sensitive assets and liabilities.

    Net interest income for 1996 increased $ 255,008 or
8.46% over 1995.  Average earning assets for 1996 increased
$ 9,343,000 over 1995.  The most significant contribution to
this increase in average earning assets was the increase in
investment securities of $ 7,292,000 or 28.22%.  This earning
asset increase was funded by an increase in average deposits
of $ 10,721,000 or 14.51%.  This volume increase is the result
of deposits purchased from the Fort Loudon office of
$ 5,533,477; a local school district Money Market account
transferred to the Bank in July 1996 which carried an average
balance of over $ 1,000,000; and a new business Money Market
account opened during 1996 which carried an average balance of
approximately $ 2,000,000.  The volume growth in earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities contributed to the
increase in net interest income by the amount of $ 79,000 in
1996 over 1995.
- -55-


    The decline in market interest rates which began in
the third and fourth quarters of 1995, continued into the
first quarter of 1996 when the Federal Reserve Board decreased
short term interest rates.  Throughout the remainder of 1996,
interest rates remained relatively the same with no major
changes in Federal Reserve interest rate policy.  Average
yields on variable rate loans and investments increased 14 and
18 basis points respectively from those of 1995; however, the
average yield on federal funds sold decreased 49 basis points.
As a result of the aforementioned significant increase in the
investment of excess deposits over that of loan demand into
investment securities, the average yield on earning assets
decreased slightly in 1996 to 7.77%, a .03% decrease from
1995.  The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities during
1996 was 4.83%, a .02% decrease from 1995.  This decrease was
attributable to the capitalization of $ 43,805 interest
expense during the renovation/construction of the main office
in accordance with FASB guidelines but mainly due to
management's decrease of Super Now and Money Market account
rates and a 25 basis point reduction of Savings account rates.
The result of these decreases were a 14 basis point decrease
in the cost of interest-bearing transaction accounts; a 35
basis point reduction in the cost of Money Market Deposit
accounts and an 18 basis point reduction in the cost of Saving
accounts.  The cost of time deposits remained at 5.89%, the
same cost as in 1995.  The net effect of all interest rate
fluctuations was to increase net interest income in the amount
of $ 177,000 in 1996 over 1995.  Due to the decrease in the
yield on earning assets by 3 basis points, which was slightly
more than the 2 basis point decrease in the cost of interest-
bearing liabilities, and to an increase of $ 7,789,000 or 83%
of the total increase in earning assets into lower yielding
investment securities and federal funds sold, the Bank has
experienced a decrease in its net interest margin during 1996
compared to 1995.  The average net interest margin for 1996
was 3.65% compared to 3.76% for 1995. 

    Management anticipates the yield on earning assets
to increase during the next few quarters as indexes on
adjustable rate securities and loans have increased.  The cost
of interest-bearing liabilities is projected to increase
slightly during the next few quarters as lower yielding
maturing time deposits are repriced to higher yielding rates.
As a result, the net interest spread and net interest margin
are projected to increase slightly during this period.  Bank
management continually monitors the Bank's rate sensitive
position within the next year.  To protect and improve rate
sensitive positions, the strategies available to the Bank are
purchasing short to medium term, fixed rate securities,

- -56-


promoting long-term lower yielding certificates of deposits,
decreasing the yield on all deposit-bearing liabilities, and
promoting all loan products.

Provision for Loan Losses

    The loan loss provision is an estimated expense
charged to earnings in anticipation of losses attributable to
uncollectible loans.  The provision is based on Management's
analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. 
The provision for 1996 was $ 95,500 compared to $ 74,704 in
1995.  This increase was based on a decrease in the level of
recoveries of prior year charged-off loans in 1996 compared to
that of 1995.  Prior year charged-off loans of approximately
$ 13,000 were recovered in 1996 compared to $ 31,000 in 1995.
At the same time, the amount of charged-off loans in 1996 was
relatively the same as those of 1995. Total charged-off loans
in 1996 were $ 108,000 compared to $ 106,000 in 1995.  This
decrease in recoveries resulted in the need to increase the
provision from $ 74,704 in 1995 to $ 95,500 in 1996 and was
also based on management's assessment of the Bank's loan
volumes, past historical performance, and analysis of non-
performing and delinquent loans which indicated the present
balance of the allowance was sufficient for anticipated future
charge-offs. See discussion on Allowance for Loan Losses.

Other Operating Income and Other Operating Expenses

    Other operating income for 1996 was $ 270,753, a
$ 1,229 increase over the same period in 1995.  This increase
is mainly attributable to a decrease in net security losses
incurred during 1996 of $ 3,843 in comparison to 1995 net
security losses of $ 5,210.  Other income increases
attributing to the total increase were a $ 4,048 recovery of
expenses incurred in the collection of a prior year charged-
off loan.  Offsetting this increase was a $ 4,451 decrease in
service charges on deposit accounts, a result of a general
decrease in the collection of fees associated with overdrawn
accounts.

    Total other operating expenses for 1996 increased
by $ 315,782 or 16.16%, over 1995.  As 1996 was the first full
year of operational expenses associated with the Fort Loudon
office, operating expenses increased due to this operation and
are outlined in the following discussion.  Employee wages and
benefits increased $ 190,420 due to increased employment as a
result of the Fort Loudon and Hancock Community Bank offices,
increased participation in health benefit and pension costs
and wage and salary increases which became effective in 1996.
Net occupancy expenses of bank premises increased $ 34,938 and
- -57-


furniture and equipment expenses increased $ 4,015 due to
increased depreciation on real estate, furniture and equipment
as a result of a full year's depreciation on the Fort Loudon
Branch Office, and on depreciation on the main office
renovation and construction completed on September 1, 1996 and
on the Hancock Community Bank office which opened on November
25, 1996.  Other operating expenses increased $ 169,378 due to
the amortization of the cost of the Fort Loudon deposit
acquisition in the amount of $ 52,863, a $ 23,540 increase in
advertising/promotional expenses as a result of increased
advertising campaigns to promote the Fort Loudon Office and
the opening of Hancock Community Bank, a $ 18,083 increase in
the cost of data, voice and Automated Teller Machine
communication expenses as a main result of the Fort Loudon
and Hancock Community Bank offices, a $ 13,300 increase in
professional development expenses due to the training costs of
new employees and attendance of banking association
conventions, the ninetieth anniversary celebration
stockholder's banquet of approximately $ 10,000, a $ 12,692
increase in supplies expenses due to the additional new
accounts acquired at the Fort Loudon Office and start-up
supplies for the Hancock Office, and a $ 4,844 increase in
postage costs due to increased account holders as a result of
the Fort Loudon acquisition.  Offsetting these increases in
other expenses was a $ 82,969 decrease in the FDIC insurance
premium due to the implementation of minimum FDIC Insurance
assessments of $ 2,000 as a direct result of the FDIC
Insurance capitalization fund exceeding 1.25%.

    Management has been operating, during the past few
years, in an expansion mode, by increasing the Bank's target
market through the acquisition of the Fort Loudon Branch
Office in Franklin County, Pennsylvania and the opening of
Hancock Community Bank in Washington County, Maryland as well
as expanding the main office facilities to allow for future
growth and expansion of operations. As a result of this growth
and expansion, management anticipates other operating expenses
to increase during the 1997 operational year and years
thereafter, due mainly to the following: 1) depreciation of
the main office renovation/construction completed on September
1, 1996; 2) operational expenses and overhead associated with
the operation of Hancock Community Bank which opened on
November 25, 1996; and 3) operational expenses and overhead
associated with the renovation/expansion of the Fort Loudon
office scheduled for completion in mid 1997 which is
anticipated to cost approximately $ 200,000.  These items are
anticipated to decrease the Corporation's net income during
the next few years as expenses of these items impact net
income.  The immediate result will be a decrease in

- -58-


operational income, Earnings per Share, Return on Assets and
Return on Equity.  Although this growth mode is anticipated to
reduce income in the short term, management is confident that
in the long term these growth plans will benefit the
corporation's income producing ability through the addition of
new customers to the Bank's deposit and loan bases and
retention of current customers which will result in increased
income to the corporation.

Income Taxes

    The Corporation's income tax provision for 1996 was
$ 218,019, as compared to $ 253,781 for 1995.  This decrease
in the tax provision in the amount of $ 35,762 was due to a
decrease in income before income taxes of $ 80,341 and an
increase in 1996 tax free interest income of $ 43,784 to
$ 633,813 from $ 590,029 for 1995. The Corporation operated
with a marginal tax rate of 34% in 1996 and 1995.  The
effective tax rate of the Corporation for 1996 was 18.55%
compared to an effective tax rate for 1995 of 20.21%.

FUTURE IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

    In June of 1996 the Financial Accounting Standards
Board issued SFAS No. 125 Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of
Liabilities.  Management has not concluded on the impact on
future operations.  This statement may significantly affect
accounting for and disclosures about certain bank
transactions including the following:

    d    Assets subject to prepayment risk
    d    Servicing assets and liabilities
    d    Securities lending transactions
    d    Loan participations
    d    Extinguishment of liabilities
    d    Collateral controlled by an institution as a      
         secured party

    This statement is effective for transfers and
servicing of financial assets and extinguishment of
liabilities occurring after December 31, 1996.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Investment Debt Securities

    The book value of the investment debt security
portfolio as of December 31, 1996, increased by $ 1,808,061
from December 31, 1995, representing a 5.74% increase.  This
increase occurred primarily due to the increases in total
deposits which were unable to be offset by loan demand.  Total
deposits increased $ 6,217,681 of which $ 3,466,064 was offset
by loan demand.

    Due to the implementation of SFAS No. 115,
management has segregated securities as Held-to-Maturity
(HTM), Available-for-Sale (AFS) or Trading securities.  This
accounting standard requires HTM securities be reported on the
balance sheet at cost and AFS securities be reported at market
value.  As of December 31, 1996 the Corporation had in its
portfolio HTM securities of $ 4,559,739 with a market value of
$ 4,567,903 and AFS securities of $ 28,755,272 with a book
value of $ 28,737,886.  No securities were classified as
Trading securities as of December 31, 1996.  For the December
31, 1995, Balance Sheet presentations, the Bank carried
investment debt securities classified as Held-to-Maturity of
$ 5,401,263 with a market value of $ 5,402,945 and as
Available-for-Sale $ 26,234,019, with at book value of
$ 26,088,301.  No securities were classified as Trading as of
December 31, 1995.  

    Once a security has been classified as HTM, AFS or
Trading, it cannot be moved to another classification without
"tainting" the entire classification of securities.  During
the 1996 operational year, no securities were moved between
classifications.  During the period of November 15, 1995
through December 31, 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board and Securities and Exchange Commission relaxed these
standards and allowed institutions a one-time grace period to
move securities from one classification to another without
"tainting" any pool of securities. 

    After extensive review of the Corporation's
security portfolio and the reasons the organization utilizes
the security portfolio, management took advantage of this
opportunity and on December 27, 1995 moved $ 5,072,833 of
securities classified as HTM to the AFS classification and
accordingly carries these securities at their market value. 
No securities were moved from the AFS classification to the
HTM classification and no securities were classified as
Trading.  The justifications for this movement were based upon
the following: 
- -60-



    1)   Regulatory rulings which have stated the AFS      
         mark-to-market adjustment will not impact
         regulatory risk-based capital positions;
    2)   The strong liquidity position of the corporation  
         based upon its security maturity ladder;
         mortgage-backed security, SBA GLPC and loan  
         principal paydowns; availability of a Line of
         Credit from the Federal Home Loan Bank; and  
         availability of the Federal Reserve Discount
         Window;
    3)   The holding of and investment in certain          
         adjustable rate securities for interest rate      
         management purposes;
    4)   The need to have certain fixed rate securities,   
         both taxable and tax-free, available for future
         sales, and tax swaps opportunities.

    The general policy adopted by the Bank segregates
purchases of tax-free municipals with maturities of 5 years or
less as Held-to-Maturity securities while all other security
purchases are classified as Available-for-Sale. Policy also
allows management on a case-by-case basis to make a specific
determination as to the classification of a security purchase
as Held-to-Maturity or Available-for-Sale depending upon the
reason for purchase.  Management adheres to the philosophy
that Held-to-Maturity classifications are typically used for
securities purchased specifically for interest rate management
or tax-planning purposes while Available-for-Sale
classifications are typically used for liquidity planning
purposes.

    As of December 31, 1996, the net unrealized gain of
the HTM portfolio was $ 8,164, a .18% increase from book value
and on the AFS portfolio a net unrealized gain of $ 17,386 or
 .06% increase from book value.  As of December 31, 1995, the
net unrealized gain on the HTM portfolio was $ 1,682, a .03%
increase from book value, and on the AFS portfolio, a net
unrealized gain of $ 145,718 or a .56% increase from book
value.  Management has reviewed the fluctuation of market
value in each of these portfolios and has determined that due
to the last several months of relatively stable interest
rates, the values of securities contained with the Bank's
investment debt portfolio are a direct result of this
stability in interest rates and "leveling" of longer term
interest rates.  Management determined that 1995's increasing
values were the result of the Federal Reserve Board's decrease
in short term interest rates during that time.  Management has
therefore, concluded that the net unrealized gains and/or

- -61-


losses in the company's investment debt portfolio are a direct
result of the current monetary policy and therefore are
temporary in that security values will continue to fluctuate,
either decrease or increase in value, in response to future
changes in interest rates and monetary policy.

    Management has purchased for the portfolio
mortgage-backed securities but presently has no Collateralized
Mortgage Obligations (CMOs) in its portfolio.  The large
portion of these mortgage-backed securities have a variable
rate coupon and all have scheduled principal payments.  During
periods of rising interest rates, payments from variable rate
mortgage-backed securities may accelerate as prepayments of
underlying mortgages occur as home-owners refinance to a fixed
rate while during periods of declining interest rates,
prepayments on high fixed rate mortgage-backed securities may
accelerate as home-owners refinance to lower rate mortgages. 
These prepayments cause yields on mortgage-backed securities
to fluctuate as larger payments of principal necessitate the
acceleration of premium amortization or discount accretion. 
Due to the low dollar amount of mortgage-backed securities in
relation to the total portfolio, management feels that
interest rate risk and prepayment risks associated with
mortgage-backed securities will not have a material impact on
the financial condition of the Bank. 

Loans

    The total investment in net loans was $ 56,259,929
at December 31, 1996, representing a $ 3,466,064 or 6.57%,
increase from the December 31, 1995 investment of
$ 52,793,865.  The primary reasons for this increase in the
loan portfolio over the past year were due to 1) a $ 1,315,000
increase in real estate loans secured by farmland, the main
result of a $ 750,000 farmland loan refinanced from another
financial institution and two new farm loans of over
$ 650,000; 2) a $ 1,037,000 increase in loans secured by 1 to
4 family residential properties; 3) a $ 1,250,000 commercial
loan refinanced from another institution which was offset with
the payoff of a Tax Revenue Anticipation Note to a local
school district which matured on June 30, 1996 of $ 1,100,000;
and 4) an increase in loans to individuals for personal
expenditures of $ 1,102,000 which occurred due to special
promotions offering lower interest rates to consumers
throughout the year.  Total new real estate mortgage loan
lending for 1996 increased $ 2,273,000 or 6.18% from December
31, 1995 in comparison to a $ 1,701,000 or 4.84% increase in
1995 from December 31, 1994.  This increase in mortgage
lending reflects the general real estate environment in Fulton

- -62-


County during 1996 which has experienced an increase in new
home sales and refinancings.  At the same time competitive
loan mortgage loan rates of other institutions in the
Corporation's market area has also resulted in the payoff of
mortgage loans within the Bank's loan portfolio.  Overall loan
demand during the past year was stronger than that of 1995
which was the result of an increase in agriculture real estate
lending, commercial loans and consumer loans.  These increases
were enhanced by the Bank's operation in a larger market area
through the Fort Loudon office in Franklin County,
Pennsylvania and Hancock Community Bank in Washington County,
Maryland.

    To encourage new loan demand, management
anticipates offering additional loan promotions, reviewing
loan terms for customer "friendliness" and seeking longer term
fixed rate mortgage loans to be sold in the secondary market
to stimulate lending in the Corporation's market area.  In
addition, the operation of Hancock Community Bank is
anticipated to result in an increase in additional lending in
the Washington County, Maryland area as well as in northern
Morgan County, West Virginia and southern Fulton County,
Pennsylvania.

Nonperforming Assets

    Nonperforming loans consist of nonaccruing loans
and loans 90 days or more past due.  Nonaccruing loans are
comprised of loans that are no longer accruing interest income
because of apparent financial difficulties of the borrower. 
Interest on nonaccruing loans is recorded when received only
after past due principal and interest are brought current.

    Other real estate owned includes assets acquired in
settlement of mortgage loan indebtedness and loans identified
as in-substance foreclosures.  These assets are carried at the
lower of cost or fair value.  The other real estate balance as
of December 31, 1996, was $ 318,992 compared to $ 395,752 as
of December 31, 1995.  This decrease reflects sales of
foreclosed construction lots in Franklin County, Pennsylvania
and the sale of a 1-4 family residential property located
within the Borough of McConnellsburg.  The Bank is actively
pursuing the sale of the other properties contained in Other
Real Estate and currently has a lease/purchase agreement
signed on the retail property located in downtown
McConnellsburg on which the Bank foreclosed and has included
in Other Real Estate.

Allowance for Loan Losses

    The allowance is maintained at a level to absorb
potential future loan losses contained in the loan portfolio
and is formally reviewed by Management on a quarterly basis. 
The allowance is increased by provisions charged to operating
expense and reduced by net charge-offs.  Management's basis
for the level of the allowance and the annual provisions is
its evaluation of the loan portfolio, current and projected
domestic economic conditions, the historical loan loss
experience, present and prospective financial condition of the
borrowers, the level of nonperforming assets, best and worst
case scenarios of possible loan losses and other relevant
factors.  While Management uses available information to make
such evaluations, future adjustments of the allowance may be
necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the
assumptions used in making the evaluation.    

    The allowance for loan losses remained basically
the same as the prior year at $ 405,600; however, the ratio of
the allowance to net loans was .72% at December 31, 1996, as
compared to .76% at December 31, 1995.  This ratio decrease
was justified by management as the $ 750,000 of the new
agriculture real estate lending is 90% guaranteed by the Farm
Service Agency, a U. S. Government Agency.  Management
believes that the current allowance for loan losses of
$ 405,600 is adequate to meet any potential loan losses.

LIQUIDITY AND RATE SENSITIVITY

    The Corporation's objective is to maintain adequate
liquidity while minimizing interest rate risk.  Adequate
liquidity provides resources for credit needs of borrowers,
for depositor withdrawals, and for funding Corporate
operations.  Sources of liquidity are maturing investment
securities; maturing overnight investments in federal funds
sold; maturing investments in time deposits at other banks;
readily accessible interest-bearing deposits at other banks;
payments on loans, mortgage-backed securities and SBA
Guaranteed Loan Pool Certificates; and a growing core deposit
base.  In order to assure a constant and stable source of
funds, the Bank has joined the Federal Home Loan Bank of
Pittsburgh because of the availability of both short term and
long term fixed rate funds.  As of December 31, 1996, the Bank
had no borrowings from this institution but had readily
available to it a $ 3,022,000 line of credit.

    The objective of managing interest rate sensitivity
is to maintain or increase net interest income by structuring
interest-sensitive assets and liabilities in such a way that
they can be repriced in response to changes in market interest
rates.  The Corporation has maintained a negative rate
sensitivity position, in that, rate sensitive liabilities
exceed rate sensitive assets.  Therefore, in a period of
declining interest rates the Corporation's net interest income
is generally enhanced versus a period of rising interest rates
where the Corporation's net interest margin may be decreased.
 

    Presently, the interest rate environment is
anticipated to remain relatively stable; however, some
indications are that the Federal Reserve Board may increase
short term interest rates in the near future.   At the present
time, a portion of the Corporation's adjustable rate loans and
securities are repricing to slightly higher interest rates
while management is retaining the cost of interest rate
sensitive liabilities at relatively the same level.
The anticipated result of this current position will be a
gradual increase in the yield on earning assets while the cost
of interest-bearing liabilities remain relatively the same. 
Management therefore expects the net interest spread and
interest margin of the Bank to increase slightly during the
next few quarters.  Management continually reviews interest
rates on those deposits which can be changed immediately,
specifically NOW accounts, Money Market Accounts, and Savings
Accounts to determine if an interest rate decrease is
necessary to increase the net interest spread and net interest
margin of the Bank.

    Another impact on the net interest spread and
interest margin of the Corporation has been the low loan to
deposit ratio which indicates how much of the Bank's deposits
are invested in the loan portfolio.  This ratio is a primary
indicator of a Bank's liquidity position as the higher the
ratio, the less liquid assets are available to fund deposit
withdrawals.  At the same time, this ratio also indicates to
management how many deposits are offset by the Bank's highest
yielding earning asset, loans; therefore, the higher the
ratio, the more deposits are invested in loans and the less
invested in lower yielding investment debt securities.  The
result of a higher loan to deposit ratio is usually a higher
net interest spread and margin.  Management has targeted as
the Corporation's optimal loan to deposit ratio 75% to 80%. 
The loan to deposit ratio at December 31, 1996 was 64.57% and
at December 31, 1995 65.24%.  This decrease of .67% from
December 31, 1995 occurred due to the acquisition of the Fort

- -65-


Loudon Office deposits which were invested immediately upon
settlement in investment securities and due to deposit growth
during 1996 exceeding that of loan growth.  The current ratio
indicates that a significant amount of deposits are invested
in lower yielding investment debt securities which decrease
the net interest margin and spread of the Bank.  Management
was aware that the loan to deposit ratio and subsequently the
net interest margin of the Corporation would decrease
immediately following the purchase of the Fort Loudon Branch;
however, it was determined that future growth of the
organization was limited within Fulton County and that this
operation would complement and indeed enhance the operations
of the Corporation.  With the addition of Hancock Community
Bank, management is anticipating loan growth will accelerate
as new loan customers are generated in this area to offset
deposit growth in other market areas of the organization. 

    To minimize the risk of its negative rate
sensitivity position, the Bank employs many different methods
to diversify its risk both on the asset and the liability side
of the Balance Sheet.  The Bank offers both fixed rate and
floating/adjustable rate loans to its customers.  At December
31, 1996, the Bank's floating and adjustable rate loans
totaled $ 32,292,000, or 55.63% of the total loan portfolio. 
As of December 31, 1995, the Bank's floating and adjustable
rate loans totaled $ 29,179,000, 54.05% of the total loan
portfolio.  The bank's debt security investment portfolio as
of December 31, 1996, was comprised of a book value of
$ 7,928,548, or 23.81% of floating rate debt securities which
reprice annually or more frequently while at December 31,
1995, the Bank's debt security investment portfolio was
comprised of a book value of $ 9,981,538, or 31.70% of
floating rate securities. Specific methods which have been
employed by the Bank to address this negative rate sensitive
position are the offering of the following deposit products to
encourage the movement of short term deposits to longer term
deposits:  four or five year certificates of deposit with
competitive interest rates.

    The interest rate sensitivity analysis for the Bank
as of December 31, 1996 is as follows:

CAPITAL

    The primary method by which the Corporation
increases total stockholders' equity is through the
accumulation of earnings.  The Corporation maintains ratios
that are well above the minimum total capital levels required
by federal regulatory authorities including the new risk-based
capital guidelines.  Regulatory authorities have established
capital guidelines in the form of the "leverage ratio" and
"risk-based capital ratios." The leverage ratio of the
Corporation, defined as total stockholders' equity less
intangible assets to total assets, was 10.60% as of December
31, 1996, compared to 10.63% as of December 31, 1995.  The
risk-based ratios compare capital to risk-weighted assets and
off-balance-sheet activity in order to make capital levels
more sensitive to risk profiles of individual banks.  A
comparison of the Corporation's capital ratios to regulatory
minimums at December 31 is as follows:

    FNB Financial Corporation has traditionally been
well-capitalized with ratios well above required levels and
expects equity capital to continue to exceed regulatory
guidelines and industry averages.  Certain ratios are useful
in measuring the ability of a company to generate capital
internally.  The following chart indicates the growth in
equity capital for the past three years.
