                                 FORM 10-Q/A

United National Bancorp files this Form 10-Q/A to reflect an  $872,000  increase
in  our  first  quarter 1999 provision for income taxes.  This change relates to
charges  in  connection  with the Raritan merger. This change increased United's
first  quarter  one-time  merger-related  charge,  net of taxes, from $7,256,000
to  $8,128,000,  and  increased  our  first  quarter net loss to $3,446,000. The
change had no effect on United's core operating earnings.

                           NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                           (Unaudited)

(1)      Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements included herein
have been prepared by United  National  Bancorp (the  "Company"),  in accordance
with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  and pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange  Commission.  Certain information and
footnote  disclosures  normally  included  in  financial  statements  have  been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.  These consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and the notes  thereto  included in the  Company's  latest annual report on Form
10-K.

In the  opinion  of the  Company,  all  adjustments  (consisting  only of normal
recurring accruals) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the operating
results for the interim  periods have been  included.  The results of operations
for periods of less than a year are not  necessarily  indicative  of results for
the full year.

Effective March 31, 1999, the Company acquired Raritan Bancorp Inc. ("Raritan").
The  acquisition  has  been  accounted  for  as  a   pooling-of-interests   and,
accordingly,  the financial  statements  include the accounts and  activities of
Raritan for all periods presented.  The transaction  resulted in the issuance of
4,023,624 shares of the Company's common stock.

In  connection  with the  Raritan  acquisition,  on March 31,  1999 the  Company
recorded a pre-tax  merger  charge of  $9,940,000  which  primarily  consists of
estimated severance and outplacement costs of $6,705,000,  investment banker and
other professional fees of $2,270,000,  expenses related to facilities  closures
and  fixed  asset  disposals  of  $670,000  and  consolidation   costs  directly
attributable  to the merger of $295,000.  At March 31, 1999,  $8,136,000  of the
total merger charge was realized.

Separate  results of the combined  entities for the three months ended March 31,
are as follows (in thousands):

In October 1998, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board issued  Statement of
Financial  Accounting  Standards (SFAS) No. 134, "Accounting for Mortgage-Backed
Securities  Retained after the Securitization of Mortgage Loans Held for Sale by
a Mortgage Banking  Enterprise." This Statement amends SFAS No. 65,  "Accounting
for  Certain   Mortgage   Banking   Activities",   to  require  that  after  the
securitization  of mortgage  loans held for sale, an entity  engaged in mortgage
banking activities  classify the resulting  mortgage-backed  securities or other
retained  interests  based  on its  ability  and  intent  to sell or hold  those
investments.  The Company  adopted SFAS No. 134 effective  January 1, 1999.  The
adoption  of this  Statement  did not have a  material  impact on the  financial
position or results of operations of the Company.

(3)      Net (Loss) Income Per Common Share

Basic (loss)  income per common share is computed by dividing net (loss)  income
by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period.


Diluted net (loss)  income per common  share is computed by dividing  net (loss)
income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding, as adjusted for the
assumed  exercise of options for common stock,  using the treasury stock method.
Potential shares of common stock resulting from stock option agreements  totaled
zero and 436,000 for the  quarter  ended March 31, 1999 and 1998,  respectively.
Options  to  purchase  541,633  shares of common  stock were  excluded  from the
calculation of net loss per common share in 1999 as they were anti-dilutive.


(4)      Pending Dissolution of Joint Venture

In the latter part of 1998,  the Company  decided to  terminate  its interest in
United  Financial  Services,  Inc.  ("UFS"),  its  joint  venture  data  service
provider.  At that time, the Company  anticipated that its joint venture partner
would continue to operate UFS. In connection with its decision to exit the joint
venture,  the  Company  evaluated  the  estimated  lives and  salvage  values of
equipment,  software and leases held by UFS, as well as related goodwill.  Based
upon this  evaluation,  the Company  accelerated  depreciation  and amortization
charges totaling approximately  $1,200,000 in the fourth quarter of 1998 and the
first quarter of 1999, and the Company anticipated taking additional accelerated
charges of approximately  $600,000 in the second quarter of 1999. In April 1999,
the Company completed the conversion of its own data processing operations to an
independent third-party provider.

In April 1999, the Company was advised that its joint venture  partner  intended
to take  its data  processing  operations  out of UFS as well.  In light of that
development,  the Company expects that UFS will cease operations, that the value
of the  Company's  interest in UFS (carried on the  Company's  balance  sheet at
$2,704,000 at March 31, 1999) may be substantially  less than it would have been
had UFS  continued  in  operation,  and that the Company  may incur  substantial
liabilities in connection  with the  obligations of UFS under  operating  leases
which remain in effect.

At March 31, 1999,  UFS was the lessee under certain  leases which had aggregate
current remaining lease payment  obligations of just under $8,000,000.  Of these
obligations,  for  which the  Company  may have  liability  for up to 50% of the
total,  approximately  $7,400,000  was for  equipment  leased  from  third-party
vendors and approximately  $600,000 was for facilities leased from the Company's
joint venture partner. Aggregate monthly payment obligations under the equipment
leases  are   approximately   $290,000  and  under  the   facility   leases  are
approximately $25,000. Thus, the Company's exposure on these leases decreases as
monthly lease payments are made by UFS.

Ultimately,  the Company's potential loss on investment in UFS and liability for
50% of UFS'  obligations  to lessors  could be reduced  based upon,  among other
things,  the amount of time the Company's joint venture partner continues to run
the operations of UFS during the  dissolution  process,  the ability (if any) of
UFS to negotiate  discounts  with lessors,  and the Company's  ability to obtain
compensation  for the use of the  equipment  and leases of UFS by a third  party
subsequent to dissolution.  The Company's joint venture partner has informed the
Company that it  anticipates  operating UFS through  October 1999,  and that the
third-party  that will undertake its data processing  functions  thereafter will
require use of some of the equipment and facilities through April 2000.

                                          6

Management is in the process of evaluating the impact of the  dissolution of UFS
on the Company in light of these developments.  Management anticipates that this
evaluation will be completed and an estimated loss will be recognized during the
second quarter of 1999.

                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 and March 31, 1998:

OVERVIEW

The Company  realized a net loss of $3,446,000 for the first quarter of 1999, as
compared to net income of $4,830,000  reported for the same period in 1998.  The
first  quarter  of  1999  included  one-time  charges,  net of  taxes,  totaling
$8,864,000 or $0.59 per diluted share.  One-time charges consisted of $8,128,000
related to the  acquisition  of Raritan and $736,000  pertaining  to the sale of
$4,465,000  of  non-performing  assets.  (Loss)  earnings per diluted share were
$(0.23) for the first quarter of 1999 as compared to $0.32 for the prior year.

First quarter 1999 operating earnings, net of taxes, totaled $5,418,000 or $0.36
per diluted  share  before  one-time  charges.  This  represents  an increase of
$588,000 or 12.2% from  operating  earnings of  $4,830,000  for the three months
ended March 31, 1998.

The  increase in earnings  before  one-time  charges for the three  months ended
March 31,  1999  compared  to 1998 was  primarily  the result of an  increase in
non-interest income combined with a reduction in non-interest expense.

EARNINGS ANALYSIS


Interest Income

Interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 was $32,540,000, a decrease
of $191,000 or 0.6% from the  $32,731,000  reported for the same period in 1998.
The yield on average interest earning assets on a fully taxable equivalent basis
decreased 58 basis points to 7.44% for the first  quarter of 1999 from 8.02% for
the first quarter of 1998.  Average interest earning assets were up $128,000,000
or 7.7%,  with most of the growth  experienced in the real estate and commercial
loan categories.


Interest Expense

The Company's interest expense for the first quarter of 1999 decreased $250,000,
or 1.7%,  to  $14,721,000  from  $14,971,000  for the  same  period  last  year.
Specifically,  interest on savings and time deposits fell  $1,445,000 as average
rates  decreased  47 basis  points,  while  interest  on  short-term  and  other
borrowings  increased $1,195,000 despite declining interest rates as a result of
an increase  in  borrowings  in order to fund loan and  investment  growth.  The
Company's  average cost of interest bearing  liabilities  decreased to 4.01% for
the first  quarter  of 1999 from 4.35% for the first  quarter  of 1998.  Average
interest bearing  liabilities  increased by $94,156,000 for the first quarter of
1999 compared to the same period in 1998,  while  non-interest  bearing deposits
increased by $29,108,000.


Net Interest Income

The net effect of the changes in interest  income and  interest  expense for the
first quarter of 1999 was an increase of $59,000 or 0.3% in net interest  income
as  compared  to the first  quarter  of 1998.  The net  interest  margin and net
interest spread, on a fully taxable equivalent basis,  decreased 26 basis points
and 24 basis points, respectively, from the same period last year.


Provision for Possible Loan Losses

For the three months  ended March 31,  1999,  the  provision  for possible  loan
losses was $975,000,  compared to $1,098,000  for the same period last year. The
amount of the loan loss  provision  and the level of the  allowance for possible
loan losses are based upon a number of factors including Management's evaluation
of  potential  losses  in  the  portfolio,   after  consideration  of  appraised
collateral values,  financial condition and past credit history of the borrowers
as well as prevailing and anticipated economic conditions.

Non-Interest Income

For the first  quarter of 1999,  compared  to the first  quarter of 1998,  total
non-interest  income  increased  $299,000 or 5.6%, due primarily to increases of
$129,000 in trust income and $519,000 in net securities gains,  partially offset
by reductions in service charges and fees and other income.

Non-Interest Expense

For the quarter ended March 31, 1999, non-interest expense increased $10,758,000
from the same  period  last  year.  Included  in the first  quarter of 1999 were
one-time charges related to the Raritan  acquisition and the sale non-performing
assets totaling  $11,073,000,  pre-tax.  Excluding  these charges,  non-interest
expense  decreased  by  $315,000  or 2.1% from  1998.  Data  processing  expense
declined by $413,000,  or 21.6% due to reductions in fees charged by UFS. UFS, a
data processing joint venture, is 50% owned by the Company. As described in Note
4, the Company has decided to terminate its joint venture in UFS. See note 4 for
a  discussion  of  the  potential   impact  on  future  results  of  operations.
Amortization  of  intangible  assets  increased  by $173,000 or 40.2% during the
first quarter 1999 compared  with 1998 as a result of  accelerated  amortization
charges  related to the pending  termination  of the Company's  joint venture in
UFS.


Income Taxes

Income tax benefit of $114,000 was  recognized  for the first quarter of 1999 as
compared to expense of $1,887,000 for the same period in 1998. The effective tax
rate for the quarters ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 was 3% and 28%,
respectively.


Segment Reporting

The Company, for management  purposes,  is segmented into the following lines of
business: Retail Banking, Commercial Banking, Investments,  Trust and Investment
Services,  and Raritan.  Activities not included in these lines are reflected in
Corporate. Summary financial information on a fully taxable equivalent basis for
the lines of business is presented in Note 5.

                                        12





<PAGE>



The  Corporate  segment  accounted  for  $8,266,000  of the pre-tax loss for the
quarter ended March 31, 1999,  down from pre-tax income of $873,000 for the same
period a year  ago.  The  decrease  in net  income  before  taxes  is  primarily
attributable  to  merger  related  charges  totaling  $9,940,000  in 1999 and an
increase in  amortization of intangibles  related to the pending  termination of
the Company's joint venture in UFS.

The  Retail  segment's  contribution  to net income  before  taxes  declined  to
$552,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999, down from $1,694,000 for the
first quarter 1998.  This decrease was due to a reduction in net interest income
resulting  from a decline in average  earning  assets coupled with a decrease in
earning asset yields.

The  Commercial  segment  produced net income  before taxes of $1,148,000 in the
first quarter of 1999,  down from  $1,537,000 for the same period in 1998.  This
decline is attributable to lower earning asset yields and losses incurred on the
sale of non-performing assets in 1999.

Investment  segment net income  before taxes  totaled  $1,634,000  for the first
three months of 1999,  up from  $1,140,000 in 1998 as a result of an increase in
net securities gains.

The Raritan  segment's  contribution to net income before taxes grew by $376,000
as a result of an  increase in earning  asset  volume and a lower cost of funds,
while  pre-tax  net  income  from the Trust  division  fell  $241,000  due to an
increase in non-interest expense.

Within  the  securities  portfolio,  the  majority  of the  increase  was due to
purchases of tax exempt municipal  securities and U.S. Government Agency issues,
partially offset by paydowns on mortgage-backed securities.

 (1) Non-performing loans consist of:
      (a) impaired loans, which includes non-accrual and renegotiated loans, and
      (b) loans which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal
      or interest,
         but are still accruing  interest at previously  negotiated rates to the
         extent  that such  loans are both well  secured  and in the  process of
         collection.

At March 31, 1999,  there were  $4,177,000  of loans that are  considered  to be
impaired  under SFAS No.  114.  There was one  troubled  debt  restructuring  of
$38,000, which is performing in accordance with the restructured agreement.

For the quarter ended March 31, 1999, the Company  recognized no interest income
on impaired loans.



Allowance for Possible Loan Losses

The  allowance  is  increased  by  provisions  charged to expense and reduced by
charge-offs,  net of  recoveries.  At March 31, 1999, the allowance for possible
loan  losses was  $10,820,000,  down from  $11,174,000  at  year-end  1998.  Net
charge-offs  for the three  months  ended  March  31,  1999  were  $536,000.  In
addition,  the allowance was reduced by $793,000 in connection  with the sale of
non-performing loans.


                                       16



<PAGE>


The level of the  allowance  for possible  loan losses is based upon a number of
factors including Management's  evaluation of potential losses in the portfolio,
after consideration of appraised collateral values, financial condition and past
credit history of the borrowers as well as prevailing and  anticipated  economic
conditions.

The allowance  for possible loan losses  declined from December 31, 1998 despite
overall  growth in the loan  portfolio,  primarily  as a result of  management's
assessment  of  improvements  in  credit  quality  attributable  to the  sale of
$3,859,000  in  non  performing   loans  and  a  continued  shift  in  portfolio
composition  out of  indirect  automobile  loans and into loans  secured by real
estate.  At March 31, 1999,  the ratio of the allowance for possible loan losses
to non-performing loans was 171.86% as compared to 129.75% at December 31, 1998.
In the opinion of  Management,  the  allowance for possible loan losses at March
31, 1999 was adequate to absorb  possible  future  losses on existing  loans and
commitments based upon currently available information.*


Liquidity Management

At March 31, 1999,  the amount of liquid assets  remained at a level  Management
deemed adequate to ensure that contractual  liabilities,  depositors' withdrawal
requirements,   and  other  operational  and  customer  credit  needs  could  be
satisfied.*  This  liquidity  was  maintained  at the same time the  Company was
managing the interest rate  sensitivity of interest  earning assets and interest
bearing liabilities so as to improve profitability.

At March 31, 1999, liquid investments, comprised of Federal funds sold and money
market mutual fund instruments,  totaled  $54,639,000.  Additional  liquidity is
generated from  maturities and principal  payments in the investment  portfolio.
Scheduled  maturities  and  anticipated  principal  payments  of the  investment
portfolio will approximate  $128,169,000  throughout the next twelve months.* In
addition,  all or part of the investment  securities available for sale could be
sold to provide  liquidity.  These sources can be used to meet the funding needs
during periods of loan growth.  Liquidity is also available  through  additional
lines of credit and the ability to incur additional debt. At March 31, 1999, the
Company had lines of credit totaling  $529,580,000  under which $180,020,000 was
available.

Capital

Total  stockholders'  equity  decreased  $9,992,000 to $148,250,000 at March 31,
1999 from the $158,242,000  recorded at the end of 1998. The decrease was due to
cash dividends declared totaling $3,311,000,  the net loss of $3,446,000,  and a
decrease in net unrealized gains on securities available for sale of $5,032,000,
partially  offset by exercises of stock  options of  $1,598,000  and  restricted
stock activity of $199,000.

Year 2000 Issue

The Year 2000 issue involves preparing computer systems and programs to identify
the arrival of January 1, 2000. In the past,  many computer  programs  allocated
only two  digits to a year,  (i.e.,  1998 was  represented  as 98).  Given  this
programming,  the year 2000 could be confused  with that of 1900.  The Year 2000
issue not only impacts  computer  hardware and software,  but all equipment that
utilizes processors or computer microchips.

Management has formed a Year 2000  Committee  with members from all  significant
areas of the Company, which has conducted a complete review of its operations to
identify  systems,  computer  hardware,   software  applications,   vendors  and
customers  that could be  affected  by the Year 2000 issue.  The  committee  has
developed an  implementation  plan (the "Plan") to rectify any issues related to
processing of transactions in the Year 2000 and beyond. Progress versus the Plan
is subject to  periodic  examination  by the  Office of the  Comptroller  of the
Currency   ("OCC")   regulators.   As  recommended  by  the  Federal   Financial
Institutions  Examination  Council,  the Plan encompasses the following  phases:
awareness, assessment,  renovation, validation and implementation.  These phases
are  designed to enable the Company to identify  risks,  develop an action plan,
and perform adequate testing and complete certification that all systems will be
Year 2000 ready. Execution of the Plan is currently on target.

                                     18





<PAGE>


As of March 31,  1999,  the  Company  is in the  validation  and  implementation
phases.  This  effort  includes  hardware  and  software  upgrades  and  systems
replacements,  as  necessary.  The primary  operating  software  systems for the
Company are obtained from and  maintained by multiple  external  providers.  The
Company  maintains  ongoing contact with these vendors who have provided written
assurances that where  necessary,  their software has been remediated and is now
Year 2000 compliant.  As part of the validation phase, the Company is working to
test these systems for Year 2000 compliance.

The  Company is also in the  process of  obtaining  certifications  of Year 2000
compliance from all other vendors,  while also defining  contingencies for these
vendors. In the event the Company is unable to obtain such  certifications,  the
Company will either obtain Year 2000  compliant  software,  hardware and support
services,  or utilize the respective  contingency,  as appropriate.  Each of the
vendors, whose products or services are believed by management to be material to
the  Company,  has  either  provided  written  assurance  that it is  Year  2000
compliant  or has  provided  written  assurance  that it expects to be Year 2000
compliant prior to the Year 2000. The Company  believes that the risk associated
with the possibility of a processing  failure being  experienced by any of these
vendors is minimal.  This assessment is based on a number of factors.  Extensive
documentation  has been provided  throughout  the progress of each vendor's Year
2000  project.  Each vendor  asserts that it completed its  remediation  efforts
prior to December 31, 1998.  Each vendor  asserts that it completed its internal
testing as of December 31, 1998,  and the Company has been involved in extensive
user testing of each of these applications.

In addition,  the Company is in the process of  contacting  all  non-information
technology  suppliers  (i.e.,  utility systems,  telephone  systems and security
systems)  regarding  the Year 2000  state of  readiness.  The  renovation  phase
involves testing of changes to hardware and software,  accompanied by monitoring
and testing with vendors.  The  validation  phase is targeted for  completion by
June 30, 1999*.  The  implementation  phase's purpose is to certify that systems
are compliant on a going-forward basis. This phase is targeted for completion by
June 30, 1999*.

The Company is also working with its  significant  borrowers  and  depositors to
ensure  they are taking  appropriate  steps to become Year 2000  compliant.  The
Company has received  information from 100% of significant  borrowers and 89% of
significant  depositors on the status of their Year 2000  readiness.  There have
been no downgrades  of risk ratings in the loan  portfolio.  Early in 1997,  the
Loan Division of UNB commenced an initiative to familiarize the Bank's borrowing
customer base with the Year 2000 issue.  The original  action was to discuss the
issue with our borrowers and to identify where they were in relationship to Year
2000  remediation.  The next step was to include a synopsis  of each  borrower's
status in their Credit Assessment.  An unsatisfactory response would then affect
overall risk rating assessment of the credit.

The Company, however, continues to bear some risk related to the Year 2000 issue
and  could be  adversely  affected  if other  entities  (e.g.,  vendors)  do not
appropriately  address their own  compliance  issues.  If during the  validation
phase an external  provider's  software is determined to have potential problems
which it is not able to resolve in time,  the Company  would  likely  experience
significant processing delays,  mistakes or failures.  These delays, mistakes or
failures could have a significant adverse impact on the financial  statements of
the  Company.  In  addition,  if  any  of  the  Bank's  borrowers'   experiences
significant  problems due to Year 2000 issues, the credit risk inherent in loans
to such borrowers would increase.

The Company  continues to evaluate the estimated costs associated with attaining
Year 2000 readiness.  Additional costs, such as testing,  software purchases and
marketing,  are not  anticipated to be material to the Company in any one year*.
In total the  Company  estimates  that its costs for  compliance  will amount to
approximately  $750,000  over  the  two-year  period  from  1998-1999,  of which
approximately  $500,000 has been incurred to date.  The Company  expects to fund
these  costs  out of normal  operating  cash.  While  additional  costs  will be
incurred, the Company believes,  based upon available information,  that it will
be able to manage  its Year 2000  transition  without  any  significant  adverse
effect on business operations or financial condition.*

The  Company  has  completed  a  remediation  contingency  plan  for  Year  2000
compliance for its mission critical  applications.  The remediation  contingency
plan  outlines  the actions to be taken if the current  approach to  remediating
mission critical  applications does not appear to be able to deliver a Year 2000
compliant system when required. Predetermined target dates have been established
for all  mission  critical  applications.  If  testing of the  mission  critical
application is not completed by the target date, then alternative  actions would
be taken

                                          19



<PAGE>


as outlined in the  remediation  contingency  plan.  In  addition,  the
Company also has a comprehensive  business  resumption plan to facilitate timely
restoration  of  services  in the event of business  disruption.  The  Company's
remediation  contingency plan and business  resumption plan will be reviewed and
updated as needed  throughout 1999. The Company is in the process of preparing a
contingency plan for all other hardware,  software and vendors which is targeted
for completion by June 30, 1999.*

Item 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

The  primary  market  risk faced by the  Company  is  interest  rate  risk.  The
Company's  Asset/Liability  Committee  ("ALCO")  monitors  the  changes  in  the
movement of funds and rate and volume  trends to enable  appropriate  management
response to changing market and rate conditions.

The Company's  income  simulation  model analyzes  interest rate  sensitivity by
projecting  net interest  income over the next 24 months in a flat rate scenario
versus net interest income in alternative  interest rate  scenarios.  Management
reviews and refines its interest rate risk management process in response to the
changing economic climate.  Currently,  the Company's model projects a 200 basis
point change in rates during the first year,  in even monthly  increments,  with
rates held constant in the second year. The Company's ALCO has established  that
interest income sensitivity will be considered acceptable if net interest income
in the above interest rate scenario is within 10% of net interest  income in the
flat rate  scenario  in the first  year and within  20% over the  two-year  time
frame.  At March 31, 1999, the Company's  income  simulation  model indicates an
acceptable level of interest rate risk, with no significant change from December
31, 1998.*

Management  also  monitors  interest  rate risk by  utilizing a market  value of
equity  model.  The model  computes  estimated  changes in net  portfolio  value
("NPV") of its cash flows from the Company's assets and liabilities in the event
of a change in  market  interest  rates.  NPV  represents  the  market  value of
portfolio  equity  and is equal to the market  value of assets  minus the market
value of liabilities.  This analysis assesses the risk of gain or loss in market
risk sensitive  instruments in the event of an immediate and sustained 200 basis
point increase or decrease in market interest  rates.  The Company's ALCO policy
indicates  that the level of interest  rate risk is  acceptable if the immediate
200 basis point  change in  interest  rates would not result in the loss of more
than 25% from the base market  value of equity.  At March 31,  1999,  the market
value of equity  indicates an acceptable  level of interest  rate risk,  with no
significant change since December 31, 1998.*

Computation of prospective  effects of  hypothetical  interest rates changes are
based on numerous  assumptions,  including  relative  levels of market  interest
rates, loan prepayments and duration of deposits,  and should not be relied upon
as indicative of actual results.  Further,  the  computations do not contemplate
any actions the ALCO could undertake in response to changes in interest rates.
