Chesapeake Financial Shares, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.   Chesapeake Financial Shares, Inc. (CFS) owns 100%
of Chesapeake Bank (the "Bank").  Two additional
subsidiaries, Chesapeake Mortgage Company, Inc. and
Chesapeake Insurance Agency, Inc. (t/a Chesapeake
Investment Services) are wholly owned subsidiaries of
CFS and the Bank, respectively.   The Bank also is the
100% owner of CNB Properties, Inc. CFS chartered
Chesapeake Financial Group, Inc. (CFG) on August 31,
1998. The purpose of CFG is to provide investment
advice and management to the upscale customer.  The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of CFS and its wholly owned subsidiaries.  All
significant intercompany accounts have been eliminated.

2.   The accounting and reporting policies of the
registrant conform to generally accepted accounting
principles and to the general practices within the
banking industry.  The interim financial statements
have not been audited; however, in the opinion of
management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair
presentation of the consolidated financial statements
have been included.

     These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and the
footnotes included in the registrant's 1998 Annual
Report to Shareholders.

3.   The following data shows the amounts used in
computing earnings per share and the effect on the
weighted average number of shares of potential dilutive
common stock.  The potential common stock will not have
a significant impact on net income. The number of
shares used in the calculation for September 30, 1998
reflects a 20% stock dividend paid on October 15, 1998.

 Condition or Plan of Operation                      (Unaudited)

A.  Summary - liquidity and capital resources

     Sufficient short-term assets are maintained at
Chesapeake Financial Shares to meet cash needs
anticipated by management.  Management's primary
sources of liquidity continue to be federal funds sold,
short term borrowing from Federal Home Loan Bank
Atlanta, securities maturing within one year, and
principal payments from mortgage securities.  The
repayment and sale of loans also provides liquidity.
The total of federal funds sold, securities maturing
within one year, and estimated principal payments on
mortgage-backed securities within one year at September
30, 1999 was approximately $8,236,000, compared to
$10,571,000 one year ago and $18,072,000 at December
31,1998.

     The liquidity ratio at September 30, 1999 was
25.4%, compared with 30.4% one year ago.  This ratio is
arrived at by dividing net liquid assets (sum of total
Cash and Due from Banks, including Federal Reserve,
unpledged and over pledged portions of Investment
Securities at market value, and federal funds sold less
reserves required at the Federal Reserve Bank) by net
liabilities (total liabilities excluding valuation
reserves and capital).  Management has found in the
past that 18% represents a sufficient level of
liquidity to meet cash needs.

     Management believes capital is adequate to meet
current needs.  Unencumbered capital (total capital net
of accumulated other comprehensive income less
intangibles plus reserves) as a percent of total
adjusted assets (total assets less intangibles plus
reserves) was 9.3% at September 30, 1999 and 9.1% at
December 31, 1998, for CFS.

     Chesapeake Financial Shares and Chesapeake Bank
must have a ratio of Tier 1 capital (common equity,
retained earnings less certain goodwill) to risk-
adjusted assets of at least 4.0%.  At September 30,
1999 and December 31, 1998 the consolidated ratio of
Tier 1 risk-based capital to risk-adjusted assets was
10.9% and 11.3%, respectively.  Total risked based
capital to risk weighted assets was 12.2% and 12.6% at
September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively.
Tier one leverage capital was 8.4% at both September
30, 1999 and December 31, 1998.

B.  Results of operations:

     Earnings Summary:

     Net income was $1,516,405 for the nine months
ended at September 30, 1999, compared with income of
$1,182,595 for the same period in 1998.  On a fully
diluted per share basis, the net profit was $1.18 for
the first nine months of 1999, compared to $0.92 for
the same period last year. Net interest income before
provision increased $354,953 or 7.2% and noninterest
income increased $435,697 or 15.1%.  The Company
experienced a net increase in noninterest expense
(which includes other expense) of $221,420 or 3.6%.

     Net Interest Income:

     Chesapeake Financial Shares' results of operation
are significantly affected by its ability to manage
effectively the interest rate sensitivity and maturity
of its interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities.  At September 30, 1999, the Company's
interest-earning assets exceeded its interest-bearing
liabilities by approximately $17.5 million, compared
with a $15.2 million excess one year ago.

     Net interest margins are 4.60% at September 30,
1999 and 4.60% at September 30, 1998.  Margins narrowed
during 1998 as our loan to deposit ratio dropped from
over 76% at June 1997, to lower than 69% at the end of
1998. Prime also dropped three times in the last four
months of 1998, impacting a significant piece of the
bank's prime based loan portfolio. Management has
adjusted deposit rates on all products during the last
twelve months to match the market for changes in
earning asset returns.  Margins have improved to near
pre-1998 levels.  The loan to deposit ratio is
currently 74.5%.

Chesapeake Financial Shares, Inc.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
 Condition or Plan of Operation                  (Unaudited)


Provision for Loan Losses:

     The loan loss provision is a charge against
earnings necessary to maintain the reserve for loan
losses at a level consistent with management's
evaluation of the credit quality and risk adverseness
of the portfolio.  Management makes a quarterly
evaluation as to the adequacy of the current loan loss
reserve.  Management's detailed analysis as of
September 30, 1999 supports the adequacy of the current
loan loss level of $2.2 million.

     Chesapeake Bank's management maintains a reserve
for loan loss that they feel represents a conservative
estimate of potential losses in the Bank's loan
portfolio.  The methodology incorporates subjective
factors into the evaluation of the adequacy of the loan
loss reserve such as:
    The effect of volume and trends in delinquencies and nonaccrual loans.
    The effect of trends in portfolio volume, maturity, and composition.
    An estimate of future loss on all significant loans and assessment of
      underwriting and lending policies and procedures including those for
      charge off, collection and recovery.
    Experience, ability and depth of lending management and staff.
    The effect of national and local economicconditions and downturns in
      specific industries.
    Concentrations of credit that might affect loss experience across one
      or more components of the portfolio.
    The results of any independent reviews of the portfolio.

The loan loss reserve is 1.8% of gross loans as of   September 30, 1999
    and December 31, 1998.

     Noninterest Income:

     Noninterest income is up 15.1% or $435,697 from
the same period last year. Chesapeake Bank's Business
Manager product generated $845,721 in gross revenue for
the first nine months ended September 30, 1999,
compared to the same period last year of $672,604.
Managed assets in the business manager program were
$7,863,052 at September 30, 1999 and $7,131,665 at
September 30, 1998.

     The merchant card program has generated $623,248
or 28.2% more in gross revenue through September of
this year than in the same period last year due
primarily to increased fees and additions to the
customer base.  Service charges on deposit accounts
have increased 16.5% or $65,405 over the same period
last year due to new account growth.  The ATM fee
income to date is $175,617, up 27.1%, or $37,421 from
one year ago.

and 1998, respectively. Benefits expense is up 19.2% or
$85,791 from September 30, 1998.  Management opened the
regional financial services center in the City of
Williamsburg  (the Lafayette Street Office) in June of
1998.  This is the third Chesapeake banking office in
the Williamsburg/James City County area.  In addition
to the Chesapeake Investment Services Investment
Manager resident in that office, management employed an
Investment Advisor for the Chesapeake Financial Group.

     Occupancy expenses are up 8.7% or $93,137 from
September 30, 1998 primarily due to maintenance
expenses at branches and the acquisition/development
and maintenance of the School Street property (the
Operations Center) in Kilmarnock. This Operations
Center was occupied on the first of October, 1998. The
School Street Operations Center houses the Loan
Processing Center, Administrative Support, and Data
Processing/Operations.  Equipment maintenance as well
as insurance costs have also increased.

     The Bank sold the old Operations Center building at
1 N. Main Street.  The transaction settled during the third
quarter.  All undepreciated assets and improvements were
written off during the same period.

PART I. Item 2. - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (cont'd.) 9/99-10QSB
Chesapeake Financial Shares, Inc.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
  Condition or Plan of Operation                     (Unaudited)

 Assets and Loans:

     At September 30, 1999, Chesapeake Financial Shares
had total assets of $188.3 million, up 3.5% from $181.9
million at December 31, 1998 and up 9.9% from $171.3
million of one year ago.  Management has budgeted for a
2.0% growth in total assets for 1999.

     Total loans (gross) at September 30, 1999 were
$125.4 million, representing an increase of 12.5% from
December 31, 1998, when loans were $111.4 million.
Chesapeake Bank's loan quality is good as the following
table shows.  Management is confident that no serious
delinquency trends are developing.

                                    9/30/99      12/31/98
                                    -------      --------
          Nonaccrual loans         $190,235      $202,434
          90 days past due              926         3,815
          Restructured loans              0             0
                                   ________      ________
          Totals                   $191,161      $206,249

     Management is also confident there will be no loss
incurred as the Bank is well secured on these assets.
There are no impaired loans outstanding at the end of
either period.

     Year to date charge offs through September 30,
1999 were $8,962 as compared to $23,467 as of September
30, 1998.  Recoveries through September 30, 1999 were
$18,956 as compared to $18,348 as of September 30,
1998.

     Concentrations of credit in loans are compiled
quarterly by management and reviewed with the Board of
Director's Loan Review Committee.  There have been no
material changes in the concentrations of credit within
the past three months that would warrant above average
additions to the reserve.  The Bank's only
concentrations of credit greater than 70% of capital
are individual consumer (156% of capital) and
residential real estate (87% of total capital).  Bank
management feels that the current levels are consistent
with the objectives of the Bank and do not represent
unwarranted risk.

     The Bank's Other Real Estate Owned (OREO)
portfolio currently has two properties with a total
carrying value of $185,000.  Bank management is
currently marketing these properties. The Bank also has
no repossessed assets.

     Deposits:

     Deposits are essentially unchanged at $ 165.3
million at September 30, 1999 and $164.6 million at
December 31, 1998.  Deposits were $165.3 million and
$150.7 million at September 30, 1999 and September 30,
1998, respectively.  The Bank's mix of deposit dollars
has changed from one year ago with net increases in
noninterest bearing and lower interest bearing savings
balances. During the same period total certificate
dollars have decreased. It is management's opinion that
this is due to new product offerings and promotions,
the lower interest rate environment and the over-valued
equity market.  Since the latest prime increases this
trend is slowing.

Chesapeake Financial Shares, Inc.
Other Information
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
     As of May 30, 1998, the Bank and Holding Company completed a
safety and soundness examination an Information Systems examination,
a Phase II Y2K examination, and a Trust examination, performed by the
Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond.

     As a result of these examinations management is not aware of any
current recommendations of the regulatory authorities which, if they
were implemented, would have a material effect on liquidity, capital
resources or operations of the Bank or Holding Company.

     For computer systems that it has determined to be
most critical, CFS completed development and testing,
and adopted a business contingency plan prior to June
30, 1999.  These plans conform to recently issued
guidance from the FFIEC on business contingency
planning for Year 2000 readiness.  Contingency plans
include, among other actions, tested manual workarounds
and identification of resource requirements and
alternative solutions for resuming critical business
processes in the event of a Year 2000 related failure.
While management believes that it has taken the
necessary steps to resolve its Year 2000 issues in a
timely manner, there can be no guarantees that there
will be no Year 2000 problems.  At present, management
does not expect that any such problems will have a
material adverse effect on its business.
