Note 4 - OTHER REAL ESTATE OWNED:

      Real estate acquired by the Bank as a result of foreclosure or insubstance
foreclosure amounted to $118,000 on two properties, at June 30, 1996. The
properties are being actively marketed and the Bank anticipates their sale
during 1996.

      Other real estate owned includes properties acquired through foreclosure
and properties classified as in-substance foreclosures in accordance with
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 15, "Accounting by Debtors
and Creditors for Troubled Debt Restructuring". These properties are carried at
the lower of cost or estimated fair value. Any write-down from book value to
estimated fair value required at the time of foreclosure or classification as
in-substance foreclosure is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Expenses
incurred in connection with maintaining these assets, subsequent write-downs and
gains or losses recognized upon sale are included in other expense.

Restructured loans           0          0
</TABLE>

      Management's policy is to, on a monthly basis, review loans that are 90
days past due to determine the future collectibility of both principal and
interest. When income is determined to be uncollectible, the loan is put on a
nonaccrual status.

      As of June 30, 1996 there were no potential problem loans which management
reasonably expects will materially impact future operating results, liquidity or
capital resources, or represent material credits which causes management to have
serious doubts as to the ability of the borrower to comply with the loan
repayment terms. There were no loan concentrations exceeding 10% of total loans.

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

      This financial review of Portsmouth Bank Shares, Inc. is intended to
broaden the understanding of the Company's financial condition and operating
results. This section should be read in conjunction with the Company's
consolidated financial statements, related notes and supplementary financial
data.

      As a financial services organization, Portsmouth Bank Shares, Inc. should
be reviewed in terms of the trends in its cash flows and changes in financial
condition, as well as the yields on earning assets compared with the cost of
interest-bearing liabilities.

      The results of operations are largely dependent upon net interest income,
which is the sum of interest and fees on loans and income on investments less
interest expense paid on deposits. Interest income is a function of the average
balance of loans and investments outstanding during the period and the rates
earned. Interest expense is a function of the average balance of deposits
outstanding during the period and the rates paid during the period on such
deposits. Net income is also affected by the level of non-interest income and
expenses.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
- -------------------

      At June 30, 1996, the Company's total assets were $266,877,000 compared to
$267,271,000 at December 31, 1995. Net loans increased $8,700,000 while
investment securities decreased $9,000,000 of which $11,700,000 were available
for sale, partially offset by an increase of $2,700,000 in held to maturity
securities.

      Deposits were $197,475,000 at June 30, 1996, compared to $195,569,000 at
December 31, 1995. The increase of $1,906,000 in deposits is comprised of
$1,624,00 in daily deposit accounts and $282,000 in certificate accounts.

      The Bank's liquidity position remains strong. The primary sources of
liquidity are in addition to the deposits at the Federal Home Loan Bank of
$55,344,000 and investments in U.S. Treasury securities of $40,724,000 on June
30, 1996.

      Shareholders equity amounted to $66,763,000 at June 30, 1996 or 25.0% of
total assets, compared to $67,775,000 or 25.4% of total assets, December 31,
1995. The adjustment for net unrealized holding gain on AFS securities at June
30, 1996 resulted in a decrease of $2,190,000 in shareholders equity. Management
is not aware of any trends, events or uncertainties that will have or that are
reasonably likely to have a material effect on the company's liquidity, capital
resources or results of operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
- ---------------------

COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995
- -----------------------------------------------------

      The Company earned $2,896,000 of $.50 per share for the six months ended
June 30, 1996 compared to $2,893,000 or $.50 per share for the 1995 comparable
period, after adjustment for a two percent stock dividend paid in March 15,
1996.

      Net interest income totaled $5,005,000 for the current period compared to
$5,798,000 for the 1995 six month period. The decrease in net interest income of
$793,000 is due primarily to an increase in the cost of interest-bearing
liabilities and, to a lesser extent,

OPERATIONS. (CONTINUED)

the decline in short-term rates earned on interest-bearing assets. Total
interest-bearing liabilities increased $2,000,000, however, time certificates of
deposit increased $9,500,000, of which $7,500,000 was transferred from day of
deposit accounts. In addition, the average rate paid on time certificates of
deposit increased 76 basis points to 5.38% as depositors sought higher yields by
extending maturities. Total interest-earning assets did increase $3,500,000 but
the maturities and/or calls of taxable investment securities channeled into
interest-bearing deposits with other banks adversely affected interest income.
These deposits earned an average rate of 5.09% in 1996 compared to 6.00% in the
comparable 1995 period. The interest rate spread for the six months of 1996
amounted to 3.00%, a decrease of 83 basis points compared to the 1995 period.

      There was no loan loss provision for the six months ended June 30, 1996 or
1995. The zero provision for 1996 and 1995 reflects management's judgment of the
adequacy of the loan loss reserve and current market conditions. Management is
not aware of any trends or uncertainties which would materially impact results
of future operations.

      Other income amounted to $874,000 for June 30, 1996, an increase of
$549,000 over the 1995 comparable period. This increase is primarily the result
of investment securities gains realized during the current period of $745,000.
Other expense decreased $239,000 compared to the 1995 total of $2,028,000. This
decrease comprises a reduction in general and administrative expense of $159,000
and all other operating expenses of $80,000.

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995
- -------------------------------------------------------

      Net income for the current quarter totaled $1,435,000 or $.25 per share
compared to $1,446,000 or $.25 per share for the 1995 comparable quarter.

      Net interest income amounted to $2,514,000 for the June 1996 quarter
compared to $2,798,000 for the June 1995 quarter, a decrease of $284,000 or
10.2%. The increased cost of interest-bearing liabilities, both in terms of
dollars and rate, coupled with the decline in short-term interest rates earned
on interest-earning assets, continues to strain interest rate margins. The
balance of taxable investment securities is starting to stabilize, and the yield
has increased to 7.32% compared to 7.01% in the prior period. Loan balances are
increasing, which has boosted interest income from $1,691,000 to $1,838,000 at
June 30, 1996. The interest rate spread amounted to 3.04% compared to 3.62% in
1995, a decrease of 58 basis points.

      There was no provision for loan losses in the current quarter nor for the
quarter ended June 30, 1996. The zero provision for 1996 reflects management's
judgment of the adequacy of the loan loss reserve and current market conditions.
Management is not aware of any trends or uncertainties which would materially
impact results of future operations.

      Other income increased $82,000 in the current quarter to $340,000.
Investment securities gains account for $70,000 of this increase, and other
income $12,000. Other expense totaled $868,000 at June 30, 1996, a decrease of
$136,000 compared to June 30, 1995. General and administrative expenses declined
$94,000 as a result of tighter cost controls, and all other operating expenses
declined $42,000.

LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY MANAGEMENT

      The Company, on a monthly basis, manages its liquidity position as part of
its strategy to better meet the cash requirements for both its banking
activities and to be prepared to satisfy the needs of its customers. Management
seeks to assure adequate liquidity by maintaining an appropriate match of the
maturities of interest bearing assets and liabilities.

      Interest rate sensitivity management seeks to avoid fluctuating net
interest margins and to achieve consistent growth of net interest income through
periods of changing interest rates. To accomplish rate sensitivity management
requires maintaining an appropriate balance between interest sensitive assets
and liabilities. At June 30, 1996, the Company's one year interest rate
sensitivity cumulative gap position is asset sensitive 18.2%, as a percent of
total earning assets.

<TABLE>
The following table depicts the Company's interest rate sensitivity at June 30,
1996.

      Capital Requirements
      --------------------
 
      The FDIC and the Federal Reserve Board have adopted minimum capital ratios
and guidelines for banks and bank holding companies (on a consolidated basis) to
provide a framework for assessing the adequacy of capital.

      Under its leverage capital adequacy guidelines, the FDIC requires that
insured state banks, such as this Bank, maintain a ratio of Tier 1 or core
capital to assets of not less than 3% for banks rated composite 1 under the
FDIC's CAMEL rating system and who are not experiencing or anticipating any
significant growth. For all other banks, the minimum core capital leverage ratio
is 4%. The FDIC may impose higher ratios for banks on a case-by-case basis.
Banks that fail to meet these minimum leverage capital levels will not, absent
unusual circumstances, receive FDIC approval of applications to establish new
branches or other transactions requiring approval.

      The FDIC has adopted so-called "risk based capital" guidelines for insured
state non-member banks. These risk based guidelines generally require the
Company and the Bank to maintain a consolidated ratio of Tier 1 capital to
risk-weighted assets, as defined, of at least 4%, and a consolidated ratio of
total capital (as the sum of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital, as defined below) to
risk-weighted assets of at least 8%. Banks which are not rated composite 1 or 2
will generally be required to maintain higher risk-based capital ratios
determined by the FDIC on a case-by-case basis.

<TABLE>
      TIER 1 or core capital consists of common stock, surplus, undivided
profits, disclosed capital reserves that represent a segregation of undivided
profits, foreign currency translation adjustments and minority interests in
consolidated subsidiaries less all intangible assets other than certain mortgage
servicing rights.

      TIER 2 or supplementary capital consists of allowance for loan and lease
losses (up to certain maximums), perpetual preferred stock, long-term (minimum
20 year maturity) preferred stock, intermediate-term (minimum 5-year maturity)
preferred stock, hybrid capital instruments (including mandatory convertible
securities) and term subordinated debt.

      Restrictions on the Payment of Dividends or Distribution
      --------------------------------------------------------

      The New Hampshire Business Corporation Act (the "Business Corporation
Act") permits Portsmouth to pay dividends on its capital stock only from its
unreserved and unrestricted earned surplus or from its net profits for the
current fiscal year and the preceding fiscal year taken as a single period.

      The Bank is not subject to the Business Corporation Act, but the payment
of a cash dividend or distribution may be restricted if the effect thereof would
cause the net worth of the Bank to be reduced below either the amount required
for the distribution and liquidation account or in the event that net worth
requirements under New Hampshire or federal laws or regulations limit such
dividends or distributions. In addition, the Bank is required under New
Hampshire law to maintain a reserve of not less than 3% of the amount of its
deposits in cash or in specified kinds of short-term investments, for the
security of its depositors. The Bank has consistently complied with this
requirement. Furthermore, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act prohibits the Bank
from paying dividends on its capital stock if it is in default in the payment of
any assessment to the FDIC.

      The Company is not under any regulatory restrictions regarding retained
earnings available for distribution. At June 30, 1996 all of the retained
earnings, $35.7 million, could be distributed in accordance with Rule 4-08 (e)
(1) of Regulations S-X.

      Earnings appropriated to bad debt reserves for losses and deducted for
federal income tax purposes are not available for dividends or distributions
without the prior payment of taxes at the current income tax rates on an amount
greater than the amount appropriated to bad debt reserves.
