3.  INVESTMENTS IN NON-WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARIES

     In August 1999, WSFS Financial Corporation invested $5.5 million in
CustomerOne Financial Network, Inc. (C1FN), a St. Louis, Missouri based
corporation formed in 1998 for the express purpose of providing
direct-to-customer marketing, servicing, Internet development and technology
management for "branchless" financial services. At September 30, 2000, WSFS is
the single largest shareholder in C1FN, has majority control through a voting
trust and shares in 42% of the operating results. In addition, WSFS received
warrants for the purchase of an additional 20% ownership of C1FN, as well as the
option and under certain circumstances the obligation to invest an additional
$5.4 million in the year 2000, at current offered ownership prices. This option
expired on July 5, 2000 with no additional investment being made. As a result of
this investment, C1FN's internet-only banking structure became part of
everbank.com(TM), a division of WSFS. C1FN and WSFS manage the operations of
everbank.com(TM). Everbank.com(TM) began marketing internet-only banking to a
national clientele in November of 1999.

     Additionally, in November 1999, the Corporation expanded the home equity
lending business of Community Credit Corporation (CCC) which initially started
operations in 1994. CCC was renamed Wilmington National Finance, Inc. (WNFI) and
WSFS retained a 51% ownership with the remainder held by WNFI's new executives
retained to lead the expansion of WNFI. WSFS also has warrants to obtain an
additional 15% ownership in WNFI. Both C1FN and WNFI are consolidated into the
financial statements of WSFS Financial Corporation. The portion of equity and
operating results attributable to investors in C1FN and WNFI, other than WSFS,
are reported as minority interest. During the quarter, WNFI's accumulated
deficit exceeded the common equity. Therefore, as a result of WSFS' preferred
stock investment, WSFS began recognizing 100% of the net loss. Once this startup
company begins recognizing income, WSFS will recognize 100% of the earnings to
the point of recovering recognized losses in excess of 51%.

4.  ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING

     On January 1, 2000, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 133 (SFAS 133), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities", as amended by SFAS Nos. 137 and 138. This statement
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts,
(collectively referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities. It
requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those instruments
at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives
depends on the derivative and the resulting designation. If certain conditions
are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as (a) a hedge of the
exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or an
unrecognized firm commitment, (b) a hedge of the exposure to variable cash flows
of a forecasted transaction, or (c) a hedge of certain foreign currency
exposures. This Statement is effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000. The Corporation has elected earlier adoption as
permitted under this standard.

     The Corporation's only derivative that requires separate accounting under
SFAS 133 is an interest-rate cap with a notional amount of $50 million which
limits 3-month LIBOR to 6% for ten years ending December 1, 2008. The cap is
being used to hedge the cash flows of $50 million in trust preferred floating
debt. The cap was recorded at the date of purchase in other assets, at a cost of
$2.4 million. The fair market value (FMV), which at inception is equal to the
cost, is broken into two components: the intrinsic value and the time value of
the option. The cap is marked-to-market quarterly, with changes in the intrinsic
value of the cap, net of tax, included in a separate component of other
comprehensive income and changes in the time value of the option included in
interest expense as required under SFAS 133. In addition, the ineffective
portion, if any, will be expensed in the period in which ineffectiveness is
determined. It has been determined that the hedge is highly effective and can
reasonably be expected to remain so. Management is not aware of any events that
would result in the reclassification into earnings of gains and losses that are
currently reported in accumulated other comprehensive income except for the
change in the FMV of the interest rate cap which pertains to the time value of
the hedging instrument. The FMV is estimated using the calculated FMV of similar
instruments.

1.  Included in other comprehensive income, net of  taxes.
2.  Included in interest expense on the hedged item (trust preferred
    borrowings).

      An additional provision of SFAS 133 affords the opportunity to reclassify
investment securities between held-to-maturity, available-for-sale and trading
at the date of adoption. Accordingly, the Corporation reclassified $72.5 million
in investments and mortgage-backed securities from held-to-maturity to
available-for-sale. Of the $72.5 million transferred, $55.4 million was sold at
a loss of $1.3 million, net of tax, during the quarter of adoption. In
accordance with SFAS No. 133, this loss was included in the statement of
operations as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.

5.  COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

SFAS No. 130:

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


GENERAL

         WSFS Financial Corporation (Company or Corporation) is a savings and
loan holding company headquartered in Wilmington, Delaware. Substantially all of
the Corporation's assets are held by its subsidiary, Wilmington Savings Fund
Society, FSB (the Bank or WSFS). The long-term goal of the Corporation is to
maintain its high-performing financial services company status by focusing on
its core banking business while developing unique profitable niches in
complementary businesses which may operate outside the Bank's geographical
footprint. Founded in 1832, WSFS is one of the oldest financial institutions in
the country. It has operated under the same name and charter serving the
residents of Delaware for over 167 years. WSFS is the largest thrift institution
headquartered in Delaware and among the four largest financial institutions in
the state on the basis of total deposits traditionally garnered in-market. The
Corporation's primary market area is the Mid-Atlantic region of the United
States which is characterized by a diversified manufacturing and service
economy.

         The Bank provides residential and commercial real estate, commercial
and consumer lending services, as well as cash management services funding these
activities primarily with retail deposits and borrowings. The banking operations
of WSFS are presently conducted from 26 retail banking offices located in
Northern Delaware and Southeastern Pennsylvania. Deposits are insured by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).

         Fully owned subsidiaries of the Bank include WSFS Credit Corporation
(WCC), which is engaged primarily in indirect motor vehicle leasing; and 838
Investment Group, Inc., which markets various insurance products and securities
through the Bank's branch system.

         In addition, the Bank has majority control of two non-wholly owned
subsidiaries, CustomerOne Financial Network (C1FN) and Wilmington National
Finance, Inc. (WNFI). See Footnote 3 of the Consolidated Financial Statements
for further discussion.


FINANCIAL CONDITION, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

    Financial Condition

    Total assets increased $30.1 million during the first nine months of 2000 to
$1.8 billion at September 30, 2000. The growth in assets reflects an increase of
$76.8 million in net loans (including held for sale), and $27.6 million in
investment securities, cash and cash equivalents. This was offset in part by a
decrease of $62.1 million in mortgage-backed securities, between September 30,
2000 and December 31, 1999. The increase in net loans reflected originations of
$313.2 million offset in part by $85.6 million in sales ($25.0 million related
to deleveraging strategy, which is discussed later) with the remainder
representing principal repayments. The increase in investments reflect purchases
of $37.0 million in investment securities offset in part by the sales and
maturities of $16.9 million in investment securities. The decline in
mortgage-backed securities resulted primarily from a deleveraging strategy in
which the Corporation divested of certain investments securities and residential
mortgages with below market interest rates, thereby repositioning the balance
sheet to allow room for higher yielding loans and share buybacks. As a result,
the Corporation sold approximately $126.5 million in mortgage-backed securities.
The Corporation also sold an additional $24.6 million in mortgage-backed
securities and experienced principal repayments totaling $64.4 million. These
decreases were partially offset by purchases of $150.8 million.

    Total liabilities increased $30.8 million during the nine-months ended
September 30, 2000 to $1.7 billion. Total deposits increased $206.5 million,
including an increase of $142.1 million in deposits at everbank.com which
included the purchase of $37.0 million in nondollar denominated deposits. In
addition, brokered deposits at WSFS increased $37.6 million during

                                       9
<PAGE>

the nine-month period. These increases were offset in part by total borrowings
which declined $183.5 million during the period as proceeds from the investment
and loan sales were used to repay $165.5 million in FHLB advances.

    Capital Resources

    Stockholders' equity increased $1.5 million between December 31, 1999 and
September 30, 2000. This increase reflects net income of $10.6 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2000. This increase in equity was partially
offset by the purchase of 891,500 treasury shares, at $10.3 million ($11.60 per
share average). At September 30, 2000, the Corporation held in its treasury
4,414,769 shares of its common stock at a cost of $52.2 million.

</TABLE>

    Under Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) capital regulations, savings
institutions such as the Bank must maintain "tangible" capital equal to 1.5% of
adjusted total assets, "core" capital equal to 4.0% of adjusted total assets,
"Tier 1" capital equal to 4.0% of risk weighted assets and "total" or
"risk-based" capital (a combination of core and "supplementary" capital) equal
to 8.0% of risk-weighted assets. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements
can initiate certain mandatory - and possibly additional discretionary-actions
by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the
Bank's financial statements. At September 30, 2000 the Bank was in compliance
with regulatory capital requirements and was deemed a "well-capitalized"
institution.

    Liquidity

    The OTS requires institutions, such as the Bank, to maintain a 4.0% minimum
liquidity ratio of cash and qualified assets to net withdrawable deposits and
borrowings due within one year. At September 30, 2000, the Bank's liquidity
ratio was 6.5% compared to 6.4% at December 31, 1999. Management monitors
liquidity daily and maintains funding sources to meet unforeseen changes in cash
requirements. It is the policy of the Bank to maintain cash and investments at
least slightly above required levels. The Corporation's primary financing
sources are deposits, repayments of loans and investment securities, sales of
loans and borrowings. In addition, the Corporation's liquidity requirements can
be accomplished through the use of its borrowing capacity from the FHLB of
Pittsburgh, the sale of certain securities and the pledging of certain loans for
other lines of credit. Management believes these sources are sufficient to
maintain the required and prudent levels of liquidity.

NONPERFORMING ASSETS

    The following table sets forth the Corporation's nonperforming assets,
restructured loans and past due loans at the dates indicated. Past due loans are
loans contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest
payments but which remain on accrual status because they are considered well
secured and in the process of collection.

</TABLE>

     The timely identification of problem loans is a key element in the
Corporation's strategy to manage its loan portfolios. Timely identification
enables the Corporation to take appropriate action and, accordingly, minimize
losses. An asset review system established to monitor the asset quality of the
Corporation's loans and investments in real estate portfolios facilitates the
identification of problem assets. In general, this system utilizes guidelines
established by federal regulation; however, there can be no assurance that the
levels or the categories of problem loans and assets established by the Bank are
the same as those which would result from a regulatory examination.

INTEREST SENSITIVITY

         The matching of maturities or repricing periods of interest
rate-sensitive assets and liabilities to ensure a favorable interest rate spread
and mitigate exposure to fluctuations in interest rates is the Corporation's
primary focus for achieving its asset/liability management strategies.
Management regularly reviews interest-rate sensitivity of the Corporation and
adjusts sensitivity within acceptable tolerance ranges established by
management. Interest rate-sensitive assets of the Corporation include cash flows
that relate to the principal of the operating lease portfolio, which are
interest-rate sensitive. At September 30, 2000, interest-earning assets exceeded
interest-bearing liabilities that mature within one year (interest-sensitive
gap) by $18.6 million. The Corporation's interest-sensitive assets as a
percentage of interest-sensitive liabilities within the one-year window
increased to 102.4% at September 30, 2000 compared to 97.7% at December 31,
1999. Likewise, the one-year interest-sensitive gap as a percentage of total
assets increased to a 1.04% from a negative 1.03% at December 31, 1999. The
change is the result of the Corporation's continuing effort to effectively
manage interest rate risk.

COMPARISON FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999

     Results of Operations

      The Corporation recorded net income of $4.1 million or $.39 per share for
the third quarter of 2000. This compares to $4.5 million or $.40 per share for
the same quarter last year. Results for the third quarter include a $2.0 million
favorable adjustment to the value of the Corporation's reverse mortgage
portfolio resulting from improved cash flow from the portfolio, driven primarily
by continued favorable real estate markets, especially in California. In
addition, startup losses on the Corporation's two new subsidiaries, WNFI and
C1FN amounted to $695,000 after tax.

      Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $10.6 million
or $.98 per diluted share. This compares to $13.5 million or $1.18 per diluted
share for the same period last year. Results for the first nine months of 2000
reflect several large items including a $4.6 million pretax loss on the sale of
approximately $127 million in securities and loans as part of the Company's
de-leverage/share buyback program. Results also include a $3.8 million pretax
charge for residual losses on the Corporation's automobile leasing portfolio, a
consequence of the continued weakness in the used car market. Also included is a
$4.3 million pretax loss on the Corporations start-up initiatives, WNFI and
C1FN. These unfavorable items were partially offset by an $10.1 million increase
to interest income resulting from adjustments to the value of the Company's
reverse mortgage portfolio.

     Net interest income increased $2.4 million between the three months ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999. The increase was due primarily to a $2.0 million
interest income adjustment in the reverse mortgage portfolio. The adjustment to
the value of the portfolio was a result of improved cash flows driven by strong
residential real-estate markets and accelerated maturity events. The net
interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 2000 was 3.35%. If the
$2.0 million adjustment were excluded from net interest income, the margin would
be 2.81%, which is a decrease of 6 basis points from 2.87% for the three months
ended September 30, 1999. Total interest income, excluding the adjustment,
increased $3.6 million between comparable quarters. This change is attributed to
the increase in average loans of $153.6 million and a series of Federal Reserve
interest rate increases. This was partially offset by the decline in average
mortgage-backed securities of $95.0 million predominantly from the sale of
securities related to the de-leverage program. Total interest expense increased
$3.2 million between the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. The
increase was a result of the higher cost of borrowings and an increase in
average interest-bearing deposits of $173.7 million from September 30, 1999. The
higher borrowing costs were offset partially by a decrease in FHLB advances of
$102.2 million between comparable quarters.

     Net interest income increased $10.8 million between the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999. The increase was due primarily to a $10.1 million
interest income adjustment in the reverse mortgage portfolio. The adjustment to
the value of the portfolio was a result of improved cash flows driven by strong
residential real-estate markets and accelerated maturity events. The net
interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was 3.78%. If the
$10.1 million adjustment were excluded from net interest income, the margin
would be 2.83%, which is equal to the nine months ended September 30, 1999.
Total interest income, excluding the adjustment, increased $6.7 million between
comparable periods. This change is attributed to the increase in average loans
of $139.9 million and a series of Federal Reserve interest rate increases. This
was partially offset by the decline in average mortgage-backed securities of
$122.4 million, predominantly from the sale of securities related to the
de-leverage program. Total interest expense increased $6.0 million between the
nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. The increase was a result of the
higher cost of borrowings and an increase in average interest-bearing deposits
of $82.7 million from September 30, 1999. The higher borrowing costs was offset
partially by a decrease in FHLB advances of $56.9 million between comparable
periods.

     Allowance for Loan/Lease Losses:

     The Corporation maintains allowances for credit losses and charges losses
to these allowances when such losses are realized. The allowances for losses are
maintained at a level which management considers adequate to provide for losses
based upon an evaluation of known and inherent risks in the portfolios.
Management's evaluation is based upon a continuing review of the portfolios.

     Other Income

      Other income for the three months ended September 30, 2000 was $9.5
million or $2.1 million higher than the third quarter of 1999. The Corporation's
two new startup initiatives, WNFI and C1FN added approximately $1.7 million of
noninterest income during the quarter. In addition, deposit service charges
increased $466,000 while credit/debit and ATM income grew $397,000. These
increases reflect increases in deposit accounts and the deposit service charge
fee schedule along with increased card usage and the growth in the ATM network.

     Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $20.6 million
or $632,000 lower than the same period last year. The major factors contributing
to this decrease was a $3.8 million additional charge for residual losses and
the loss of $2.5 million on the sale of investments and mortgage-backed
securities in the first quarter. This sale was part of the deleverage plan
discussed previously. These decreases were partially offset by increases of $1.2
million in credit/debit card and ATM income and $1.2 million in deposit service
charges. In addition WNFI and C1FN added $2.9 million of noninterest income
during the first nine months of 2000.

     Other Expenses

     Other expenses for the quarter were $16.7 million or $5.7 million above the
third quarter of last year. Other expenses for the first nine months of 2000
grew $15.0 million to $46.3 million. This increase, associated with salary
related expenses, marketing, premises and equipment expenses and professional
fees, relate to the opening of four new retail offices, ATM expansion and
startup expenses, including legal and consulting fees, for the two new
subsidiaries WNFI and C1FN. These two subsidiaries added approximately $4.2
million and $11.1 million in additional expenses to the consolidated results for
the three and nine month periods, respectively.

     Income Taxes

    The Corporation and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax
return and separate state income tax returns. Income taxes are accounted for in
accordance with SFAS No. 109, which requires the recording of deferred income
taxes for tax consequences of "temporary differences". The Corporation recorded
a provision for income taxes during the three and nine months ended September
30, 2000 of $1.3 million and $ 4.3 million, respectively, compared to an income
tax provision of $1.5 million and $4.7 million, for the comparable periods of
1999. The effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2000 were 25% and 25%, respectively, compared to 25% and 26%, for the comparable
periods in 1999. These effective rates reflect the recognition in the financial
statements of certain tax benefits, including the benefits related to the
reverse mortgage portfolio, and the fifty-percent interest income exclusion on
an ESOP loan.

    The Corporation analyzes its projections of taxable income on an ongoing
basis and makes adjustments to its provision for income taxes accordingly.

     Cumulative Effect of a Change in Accounting Principle

     On January 1, 2000, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 133 (SFAS 133), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities". A provision of SFAS 133 affords the opportunity to
reclassify investment securities between held-to-maturity, available-for-sale
and trading. At adoption, the Corporation reclassified $72.5 million in
investments and mortgage-backed securities from held-to-maturity to
available-for-sale. Of the $72.5 million transferred, $55.4 million was sold at
a loss of $1.3 million, net of tax. In accordance with SFAS No. 133, this loss
was included in the statement of operations as a cumulative effect of a change
in accounting principle.

     In addition, the difference at January 1, 2000 between the fair value and
carrying value of $2.2 million, net of tax, relating to an interest rate cap is
included in comprehensive income as a cumulative change in accounting principle.

     SEGMENT INFORMATION

     Under the definition of SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information" the Corporation has four operating segments
at September 30, 2000: Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB (Bank), WSFS Credit
Corporation (WCC), CustomerOne Financial network, Inc. (C1FN) and Wilmington
National Finance, Inc. (WNFI). C1FN and WNFI are not wholly-owned, but are
majority-controlled subsidiaries started in 1999. Only the Bank and WCC were
operating segments at September 30, 1999.

         The Bank segment provides financial products through its branch network
to consumer and commercial customers. The WSFS Credit Corporation segment
provides auto loans and leases indirectly through unrelated auto dealerships
within the Mid-Atlantic region. C1FN is a start-up company in which the Bank has
voting control and shares in 42% of the operating results at September 30, 2000.
C1FN provides direct-to-customer marketing, servicing, Internet development and
technology management for "branchless" financial services. WSFS and C1FN are
engaged in a joint effort through a division of the Bank, everbank.com, to
provide internet banking on a national level. WNFI, a 51% owned subsidiary,
which began operations in December 1999, is engaged in home equity lending. The
reportable segments are managed as separate business units because they operate
under different regulations and provide services to distinct customers. The
Corporation evaluates performance based on pre-tax ordinary income and allocates
resources based on these results. Segment information for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 is as follows:

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

           Within this discussion and analysis we have included certain "forward
looking statements" concerning the future operations of the Corporation. It is
management's desire to take advantage of the "safe harbor" provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This statement is for the
express purpose of availing the Corporation of the protections of such safe
harbor with respect to all "forward looking statements" contained in our
financial statements. We have used "forward looking statements" to describe the
future plans and strategies including our expectations of the Corporation's
future financial results. Management's ability to predict results or the effect
of future plans and strategy is inherently uncertain. Factors that could affect
results include interest rate trends, competition, the general economic climate
in Delaware, mid-Atlantic region and the country as a whole, loan delinquency
rates, and changes in federal and state regulation, among others. These factors
should be considered in evaluating the "forward looking statements", and undue
reliance should not be placed on such statements.


Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

         Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices
and rates. The Company's market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk
inherent in its lending, investing and funding activities. To that end,
management actively monitors and manages its interest rate risk exposure. One
measure, required to be performed by OTS-regulated institutions, is the test
specified by OTS Thrift Bulletin No. 13A "Management of Interest Rate Risk,
Investment Securities and Derivative Activities." This test measures the impact
on the net portfolio value ratio of an immediate change in interest rates in 100
basis point increments. The net portfolio value ratio is defined as the net
present value of assets minus liabilities, and plus or minus off-balance sheet
contracts divided by the net present value of assets. The chart below is the
estimated impact of immediate changes in interest rates on net interest margin
and the net portfolio value ratio at the specified levels at September 30, 2000
and 1999, calculated in compliance with Thrift Bulletin No. 13A:

(1)  September 30, 1999 has been restated to reflect the change in valuation of
     core deposit intangibles.
(2)  This column represents the percentage difference between net interest
     margin in a stable interest rate environment and net interest margin as
     projected in the various rate increments.
(3)  This column represents the net portfolio value ratio of the Company in a
     stable interest rate environment and the net portfolio value ratio as
     projected in the various rate increments.

     The Company's primary objective in managing interest risk is to minimize
the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on the Company's net interest
income and capital, while maximizing the yield /cost spread on the Company's
asset/liability structure. The Company relies primarily on its asset/liability
structure to control interest rate risk.
