ITEM 2:  MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL  CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000.

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;  year 2000  issues 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 its financial
condition, results of operations, cash flows and changes in stockholders' equity
for the periods and dates  indicated.  The results of  operations  for the three
months  ended March 31, 2000 are not  necessarily  indicative  of the  operating
results for the full fiscal year or any other interim period.

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 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1999. The consolidated  financial statements include
the Corporation's sole subsidiary, Farmers & Mechanics Bank ("the Bank").

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 March 31, 2000 of

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  savings 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 money fund accounts and other flexible rate
accounts  have  become  significant  sources of savings  deposits.  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.

The following table sets forth certain information relating to the Corporation's
average balance sheet and reflects the average yield on assets and average rates
paid on liabilities for the periods indicated. Such yields and rates are derived
by dividing income or expense by the average balance of interest-earning  assets
or interest-bearing liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented:

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 - the increase in net interest  income for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 totaled $967  thousand was  primarily due to an increase in
interest  income of $1.6  million,  partially  offset by an increase in interest
expense of $657 thousand.

The  increase  in  interest  income was  primarily  the result of an increase in
investment  securities interest income of $979 thousand.  The average balance of
investment  securities  increased  $48.0 million to $305.1 million for the three
months  ended March 31,  2000 from  $257.1  million for the same period in 1999,
which resulted in a volume  increase of $747 thousand.  The average yield of the
investment  portfolio  increased 30 basis points to 6.52% for the quarter  ended
March 31,  2000 from 6.22% for the same  period in 1999,  which  resulted  in an
interest income  increase of $232 thousand due to rate changes.  The increase in
average  balance  during these  periods was  primarily  due to $74.7  million of
purchases  of U.S.  Agency  Notes,  partially  offset  by $32.8  million  of CMO
principal paydowns.

The average  balance of the MBSs  increased  $36.5 million to $122.6 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $86.1  million for the same period in
1999,  which resulted in a volume  increase in interest income of $632 thousand,
partially  offset by a decrease in the average  yield of 28 basis point to 6.67%
for the three  months  ended March 31, 2000 from 6.95% during the same period in
1999,  which resulted in a $84 thousand  decrease in interest  income from lower
rates. The increase in the average volume during these periods was primarily due
to $49.5 million of purchase of mortgage backed securities,  partially offset by
principal paydowns of $23.9 million.

The  increase in interest  expense  was  primarily  the result of an increase in
interest  expense on deposits of $607 thousand.  The average balance of deposits
increased $71.9 million, which resulted in a volume increase in interest expense
of $583  thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2000 compared to the same
period in 1999.  The weighted  average rates paid on deposits  increased 1 basis
point to 3.26% for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from 3.25% for the same
period in 1999,  which  resulted  in an  increase  in  interest  expense  of $24
thousand.

Provision for Loan Losses - for the first  quarter of 2000 remained  constant at
$60 thousand.  At March 31, 2000 the allowance for possible loan losses amounted
to $3.8 million compared to $3.4 million at March 31, 1999. 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 consisting of single family residential properties. 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.

Operating Expenses - for the first quarter of 2000 totaled $4.7 million, as
compared to $4.2 million for the same period in 1999.

Salaries  and  Employee  Benefits  - for the  first  quarter  of 2000  were $2.8
million,  as compared to $2.4 million for the same period in 1999.  The increase
was due to additional staff in three new branches opened since the first quarter
of 1999.  Average full time  equivalent  employees at March 31, 2000 were 413 as
compared to 378 at March 31, 1999.

Occupancy  and  Equipment  - for the  first  quarter  of 2000  amounted  to $973
thousand,  compared  to $884  thousand  for the same  period  in  1999.  The $89
thousand  increase  is the  result of  additional  depreciation  and  occupation
expenses on the new branches opened as well as other facility  improvements  and
new computer  equipment  additions between the quarters ended March 31, 2000 and
March 31, 1999.

Purchased  Services - for the first quarter of 2000  amounted to $429  thousand,
compared to $367 thousand for the same period of 1999. ATM charges increased $27
thousand,  compared to the same period in 1999 and check  processing  costs have
increased  $26  thousand  for three  months  ended  March 31, 2000 due to higher
transaction volumes.

Federal  Deposit  Insurance  Premiums - for the first  quarter  amounted  to $30
thousand  compared to $75  thousand  for the same period in 1999.  Beginning  in
January 2000, the FDIC reduced deposit  insurance  premiums  assessments from an
annual rate of .061% to an annual rate of .021 % on total deposits.

ITEM 3:  DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

There were no significant changes for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from
the  information  presented in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1999.
