ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
        AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED
        SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999.

FMS Financial Corporation (the "Corporation") may from time to time make written
or oral  "forward-looking  statements",  including  statements  contained in the
Corporation's  filings with the  Securities and Exchange  Commission  (including
this quarterly report on form 10-Q and the exhibits thereto),  in its reports to
stockholders and in other  communications by the Corporation,  which are made in
good faith by the  Corporation  pursuant to the "safe harbor"  provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

These  forward-looking  statements  involve  risks  and  uncertainties,  such as
statements of the Corporation's plans, objectives,  expectations,  estimates and
intentions,  that are subject to change based on various important factors (some
of which are beyond the Corporation's  control).  The following  factors,  among
others, could cause the Corporation's financial performance to differ materially
from the plans, objectives,  expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in
such  forward-looking  statements:  the strength of the United States economy in
general  and the  strength  of the  local  economies  in which  the  Corporation
conducts operations;  the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal
policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the board of governors of
the federal  reserve  system,  inflation,  interest  rate,  market and  monetary
fluctuations;  the timely  development  of and  acceptance  of new  products and
services of the  Corporation  and the perceived  overall value of these products
and services by users,  including the features,  pricing and quality compared to
competitors'  products and  services;  the  willingness  of users to  substitute
competitors' products and services for the Corporation's  products and services;
the success of the  Corporation in gaining  regulatory  approval of its products
and services,  when required;  the impact of changes in financial services' laws
and  regulations  (including  laws  concerning  taxes,  banking,  securities and
insurance);  technological changes;  acquisitions;  changes in consumer spending
and saving  habits;  and the success of the  Corporation  at managing  the risks
involved in the foregoing.

The  Corporation  cautions that the foregoing  list of important  factors is not
exclusive.  The  Corporation  does not  undertake to update any  forward-looking
statement,  whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on
behalf of the Corporation.


General
-------

In the opinion of management,  the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements of FMS Financial  Corporation contain all adjustments,  consisting of
normal recurring accruals,  necessary for a fair presentation of FMS's financial
condition,  results of  operations  and cash flows and changes in  stockholders'
equity for the periods and dates  indicated.  The results of operations  for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of
the  operating  results for the full fiscal  year or any other  interim  period.
Certain items in the consolidated  financial  statements have been  reclassified
for comparative purposes.


The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with the instructions for FORM 10-Q, and therefore, do not include
all  information  and  notes  necessary  for a fair  presentation  of  financial
condition, results of operations and statements of cash flows in conformity with
generally  accepted  accounting  principles.  These statements should be read in
conjunction  with the  consolidated  statements  and  related  notes  which  are
incorporated by reference to the Corporation's annual report on Form 10K for the
year ended December 31, 1999. The consolidated  financial statements include the
Corporation's sole subsidiary, Farmers & Mechanics Bank ("the Bank").

At September 30, 2000, the recorded investment in loans for which impairment has
been recognized in accordance with SFAS Nos. 114 and 118 totaled $2.5 million of
which  $1.1  million  related  to loans  that  were  individually  measured  for
impairment with a valuation allowance of $425 thousand and $1.4 million of loans
that were collectively measured for impairment with a valuation allowance of $70
thousand.  For the nine months ended  September 30, 2000,  the average  recorded
investment in impaired loans was approximately $2.8 million. The Bank recognized
$136 thousand of interest income on impaired loans,  all of which was recognized
on the cash basis. The Bank had $3.9 million in total reserves for possible loan
losses at September 30, 2000,  representing  approximately  160% of  non-accrual
loans and 1.31% of total loans.

As of  September  30, 2000 the Bank had  outstanding  loan  commitments  of $7.8
million, of which $3.9 million represented  variable rate loans and $3.9 million
represented fixed rate loans. The Bank intends to fund these commitments through
scheduled  amortization  of loans  and  mortgage-backed  securities,  additional
borrowings and, if necessary,  the sale of investment  securities  available for
sale.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -

General

The earnings of the Corporation  depend primarily upon the level of net interest
income,  which is the difference between interest earned on its interest-earning
assets such as loans and investments,  and the interest paid on interest-bearing
liabilities,  such as deposits  including  non-interest  checking  accounts  and
borrowings. Net interest income is a function of the interest rate spread, which
is the difference between the weighted average yield earned on  interest-earning
assets and the weighted average rate paid on  interest-bearing  liabilities,  as
well  as  the  average  balance  of  interest-earning   assets  as  compared  to
interest-bearing  liabilities.  Net  income  is also  affected  by  non-interest
income,  such as gains (losses) on the sale of loans and investments,  provision
for loan  losses  and real  estate  owned,  service  charges  and other fees and
operating  expenses:  such as salaries and employee benefits,  deposit insurance
premiums,  depreciation,  occupancy and equipment expense and purchased services
expense.

The  Corporation  recorded net income for the three months ended  September  30,
2000 of $1.3  million,  or $.19  diluted  earnings per share as compared to $1.3
million,  or $.18 diluted earnings per share for the comparable  period in 1999.
Earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 were $3.9 million, or $.56
diluted earnings per share as compared to $3.7 million, or $.51 diluted earnings
per share for the comparable period in 1999.

Interest Rate Spread

The Bank's  interest  income is affected by the  difference  or  "interest  rate
spread" between yields received by the Bank on its  interest-earning  assets and
the  interest  rates  paid  by  the  Bank  on its  interest-bearing  liabilities
including non-interest checking accounts. Net interest income is affected by (i)
the spread between the yield earned on interest-earning  assets and the interest
rates paid on interest-bearing deposits including non-interest checking accounts
and borrowings  (liabilities) and (ii) the relative amounts of  interest-earning
assets  versus  interest-bearing  liabilities.  The Bank's  interest rate spread
varies over time because income from investment  securities and  mortgage-backed
securities  depends  upon the amount  invested  during the period and the yields
earned on such securities.  The yield on loans receivable changes principally as
a result of existing mortgage loan repayments, adjustable rate loan adjustments,
sales and the interest rates and volume of new mortgage loans.  Interest expense
on  certificates  of deposit  changes  due to their  periodic  maturity  and the
prevailing current market interest rates.

Rate/Volume Analysis
The following  table describes the extent to which changes in interest rates and
changes in volume of interest-earning  assets and  interest-bearing  liabilities
have affected the Bank's interest income and interest expense during the periods
indicated.  For each category of  interest-earning  assets and  interest-bearing
liabilities,  information is provided on changes  attributable to (i) changes in
rate,  (ii)  changes in volume and (iii)  total  changes in rate and volume (the
combined  effect of changes in both volume and rate, not separately  identified,
has been  allocated  to rate).  Due to the fact that  average  balances on loans
include  non-performing loans which reduce the computed yield, a higher level of
non-performing loans affects both the changes due to volume and rate.

Net  Interest  Income - for the three and nine months ended  September  30, 2000
totaled $6.3 million and $18.8 million,  respectively.  Net interest  income for
the three months ended September 30, 2000 increased $131 thousand as compared to
the same period in 1999 due  primarily  to an  increase  in  interest  income on
investment   securities  of  $582  thousand,  an  increase  in  mortgage  backed
securities of $279 thousand, and a decrease on interest expense on borrowings of
$85 thousand, partially offset by an increase in interest expense on deposits of
$697 thousand and a decrease in interest income on loans of $118 thousand.

Investment securities increased $582 thousand to $5.3 million due to an increase
in the average  balance of the portfolio of $19.6 million to $313.6  million for
the three  months  ended  September  30, 2000 from  $294.0  million for the same
period in 1999.  This  increase  was  primarily  due to the net  increase  since
September  1999 in repurchase  agreement  investments  of $28.0  million,  which
resulted in a volume increase in interest  income of $313 thousand.  The average
yield on the  investment  portfolio  increased  35 basis points to 6.72% for the
three  months  ended  September  30, 2000 from 6.37% for the three  months ended
September  30,  1999,  which  resulted in a increase in interest  income of $269
thousand.

Interest  income on mortgage backed  securities  increased $279 thousand to $1.9
million for the three months ended  September 30, 2000 from $1.6 million for the
same period in 1999,  which was primarily due to a $14.6 million increase in the
average  balance of the  portfolio to $111.3  million for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 from $96.7 million for the same period in 1999.  The increase
since  September 1999 in the mortgage backed  securities  portfolio was from the
purchases of $33.8 million of adjustable rate mortgage  backed securities offset
by principal  paydowns of $23.1 million.  This resulted in a volume  increase in
interest income of $246 thousand.  The average yield of the portfolio  increased
12 basis  points to 6.85% for the three  months  ended  September  30, 2000 from
6.73% for the same  period in 1999,  which  resulted  in an increase in interest
income of $33 thousand.

Interest  income on loans  decreased $118 thousand to $6.0 million for the three
months  ended  September  30, 2000 from $6.1 million for the same period in 1999
principally due to a decrease in the loan portfolio's  average rate to 7.90% for
the three months ended  September 30, 2000 from 8.06% for the three months ended
September  30,  1999.  The decrease in the average  yield for the current  three
month  period is primarily  due to interest  income on impaired  loans.  Average
interest rate on loans during the 1999 period includes $527 thousand of interest
income reorganized on impaired loans as compared to $136 thousand  recognized in
2000.  The average  balance of the loan  portfolio  increased  $229  thousand to
$301.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 from $301.3 million
for the same period in 1999, which resulted in an increase in interest income of
$5 thousand.

Interest expense on deposits  increased $697 thousand for the three months ended
September 30, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999.  The average  balance of
deposits  increased  $41.0 million to $622.2  million for the three months ended
September  30,  2000 from  $581.2  million  for the same  period in 1999,  which
resulted in a volume increase in interest expense of $295 thousand. The weighted
average rates paid on deposits  increased 24 basis points to 3.39% for the three
months ended  September  30, 2000 from 3.15% for the same period in 1999,  which
resulted  in an  increase  in  interest  expense  of $402  thousand  due to rate
changes.  Average  balances  and  interest  rates on checking  accounts  tied to
treasury rates  increased  sharply during the third quarter due to a significant
rise in  short-term  interest  rates  and  short-term  certificates  of  deposit
repriced at higher costs.

Net interest  income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 increased $1.8
million to $18.8  million  from $17.0  million for the same period in 1999,  due
primarily to an increase in interest  income on  investment  securities  of $2.5
million and an increase in mortgage backed securities of $1.2 million, partially
offset by an increase in interest expense on deposits of $2.0 million.

<PAGE>

The increase in interest  income on  investment  securities  for the nine months
ended  September  30,  2000 as compared to the same period in 1999 was due to an
increase in the average balance of the investment  portfolio of $20.7 million to
$309.8 million for the nine months ended  September 30, 2000 from $289.1 million
for the same period in 1999,  which  resulted  in a volume  increase in interest
income of $924 thousand. The average yield on the investment portfolio increased
67 basis points to 6.62% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from 5.95%
for the same period in 1999, which resulted in an increase in interest income of
$1.5 million.

Interest  income on mortgage  backed  securities  increased $1.2 million to $5.9
million for the nine months ended  September  30, 2000 from $4.7 million for the
same time period in 1999, which was primarily due to a $25.7 million increase in
the average balance of the portfolio to $117.2 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 from $91.5 million for the same period in 1999.  The increase
in the  mortgage  backed  securities  portfolio  was due to  purchases  of $33.8
million,  partially offset by $23.1 million of principal paydowns from September
1999 through  September  2000.  This  resulted in a volume  increase in interest
income of $1.3 million.  The average  yield of the  portfolio  decreased 9 basis
points to 6.74% for the nine months ended  September 30, 2000 from 6.83% for the
same time period in 1999, which resulted in a decrease in interest income of $78
thousand.

Interest  expense on deposits  increased  $2.0 million to $15.3  million for the
nine months  ended  September  30, 2000  compared to $13.3  million for the same
period in 1999.  The average  balance on  deposits  increased  $58.7  million to
$615.6 million for the nine months ended  September 30, 2000 from $556.9 million
for the nine months ended  September  30, 1999 which  resulted in an increase in
interest expense of $1.4 million.  Average interest rates on deposits  increased
12 basis points to 3.31% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from 3.19%
for the same period in 1999 which resulted in an increase in interest expense of
$548 thousand.

Provision  for Loan  Losses - for the three  months  ended  September  30,  2000
decreased  $414  thousand to $60 thousand from $474 thousand for the same period
in 1999.  For the nine months ended  September  30, 2000 there was a decrease in
the provision for loan losses of $414 thousand to $180 thousand compared to $594
thousand for the same period in 1999. At September 30, 2000 non-performing loans
decreased $672 thousand from December 31, 1999. Such decreases  precipitated the
decrease in the provision for loan losses.  The  determination  of the allowance
level  for  loan  losses  is  based  on   management's   analysis  of  the  risk
characteristics  of  various   classifications  of  loans,  previous  loan  loss
experience,  estimated  fair  value of the  underlying  collateral  and  current
economic conditions.  The Corporation will continue to monitor its allowance for
loan losses and make future  adjustments to the allowance  through the provision
for loan losses as economic conditions dictate.  Management continues to offer a
wider variety of loan products  coupled with the continued  change in the mix of
the products  offered in the loan portfolio from lower yielding loans (i.e., one
to four family loans) to higher  yielding  loans (i.e.,  commercial  real estate
mortgage, commercial construction, consumer, and commercial business) which have
a higher degree of risk than one to four family loans.  Although the Corporation
maintains  its  allowance  for loan  losses at a level that it  considers  to be
adequate to provide for the inherent risk of loss in its loan  portfolio,  there
can be no assurance that future losses will not exceed estimated amounts or that
additional provisions for loan losses will not be required in future periods due
to the higher  degree of credit risk which  might  result from the change in the
mix of the loan portfolio. Most of the Bank's lending activity is with customers
located  within  southern New Jersey.  Generally,  the loans are secured by real
estate.  While this represents a concentration of credit risk, the credit losses
arising from this type of lending compare  favorably with the Bank's credit loss
experience on its portfolio as a whole. The ultimate repayment of these loans is
dependent to a certain degree on the local economy and real estate market.

Other  Income - for the three and nine months ended  September  30, 2000 totaled
$754 thousand and $2.2 million,  respectively,  remaining constant for the three
month period and  decreasing  $182 thousand  during the nine month period ending
September  30, 2000  compared  to the same  period in 1999.  Gain on disposal of
fixed assets  decreased  $245  thousand for the nine months ended  September 30,
2000 due to the sale in May 1999 of a two acre  parcel of land.  Loan  servicing
fees  during the third  quarter of 1999  include $25  thousand  in late  charges
received from one commercial  loan. Real estate owned expenses  increased during
the third quarter of 2000 primarily due to expenditures of $9 thousand  incurred
to prepare one property for sale.

Operating  Expenses - for the three month and nine months  ended  September  30,
2000  amounted to $5.0 million and $14.7  million,  respectively  as compared to

Salaries  and  Employee  Benefits - for the three and nine month  periods  ended
September 30, 2000 were $2.9 million and $8.7 million, respectively, as compared
to $2.6 million and $7.5 million for the same periods in 1999.  The increase was
due to  annual  cost of  living  raises  and  additional  staff  in the four new
branches opened since September 30, 1999. Average full time equivalent employees
at September 30, 2000 were 423 as compared to 374 at September 30, 1999.

30, 2000 amounted to $1.1 million and $3.0 million, respectively, as compared to
$872 thousand and $2.6 million for the same periods in 1999. The increase is the
result of additional  depreciation  and  occupancy  expenses on the new branches
opened,  as well as other facility  improvements  and equipment  additions since
September 30, 1999.

Purchased  Services - for the three and nine month periods  ended  September 30,

increased $129 thousand and check  processing  costs have increased $73 thousand
for the nine months ended  September 30, 2000 due to higher  transaction  volume
from an increase in the number of checking accounts.

Professional Fees - for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2000
were $118 thousand and $352 thousand,  respectively, as compared to $81 thousand
and $360  thousand  for the same  periods  in 1999.  Accounting  and  regulatory
