                         COMMUNITY FINANCIAL CORPORATION
          NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               September 30, 1999

NOTE 1. - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying  unaudited interim consolidated  financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation  S-X.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete
financial statements.

The  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements  include the  accounts of
Community Financial Corporation ("Community" or the "Company"),its  wholly-owned
subsidiary,   Community   Bank  (the  "Bank")  and  Community   First   Mortgage
Corporation,  a  wholly-owned  subsidiary  of the Bank ("First  Mortgage").  All
significant  intercompany  balances and  transactions  have been  eliminated  in
consolidation.

In the opinion of management,  all adjustments  (consisting of normal  recurring
accruals)  considered  necessary  for  fair  presentation  have  been  included.
Operating results for the three and six months ended September 30, 1999, are not
necessarily  indicative  of the results that may be expected for the year ending
March 31, 2000.

NOTE 2. - EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is based on net income divided by the weighted  average
number of common  shares  outstanding  during the period.  Diluted  earnings per
share shows the dilutive effect of additional common shares issuable under stock
option plans.  Basic earnings per share for the three months ended September 30,
1999 and 1998  have been  determined  by  dividing  net  income by the  weighted
average  number of  shares of common  stock  outstanding  during  these  periods
2,572,146 and  2,569,837,  respectively.  The number of shares used to determine
diluted  earnings per share for the same three month  periods was  2,572,146 and
2,590,331,  respectively.  Basic  earnings  per share for the six  months  ended
September  30, 1999 and 1998 have been  determined by dividing net income by the
weighted  average  number of shares of common  stock  outstanding  during  these
periods  2,572,146  and  2,567,181,  respectively.  The number of shares used to
determine  diluted  earnings  per  share  for the same  six  month  periods  was
2,572,146 and 2,604,921, respectively.

the Bank has a regulatory  rating in one of the two top examination  categories,
(ii) the Bank is not of  supervisory  concern,  and will remain  adequately-  or
well-capitalized,  as defined in the OTS prompt corrective  action  regulations,
following the proposed distribution,  and (iii) the distribution does not exceed
the Bank's net income for the calendar year-to-date plus retained net income for

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
         AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

The  Company's  total  assets  increased  $29.5  million  to $230.3  million  at
September 30, 1999, due primarily to an increase in held to maturity  securities
of $25.8  million  which was funded by reverse  repurchase  borrowings  and FHLB
advances.  Approximately  $20 million of the increase in securities  was part of
the  Company's  asset/liability  strategy to increase  net interest  income.  An
additional $5 million of securities with  maturities  prior to December 31, 1999
were purchased as part of the Company's  Year 2000  contingency  plan.  Deposits
decreased  $5.0  million to $148.0  million at September  30, 1999,  from $153.0
million at March 31, l999 while borrowings increased during the same period from
$19.0  million to $54.0  million.  The decrease in deposits was due primarily to
increased  rate  competition  on  certificates  of deposits  by other  financial
institutions and withdrawals from transaction accounts. Stockholders' equity was
unchanged at $26.4  million at  September  30,  1999,  from March 31, 1999,  due
primarily to earnings for the six month  period ended  September  30, 1999 which
was offset by  aggregate  payments  of $0.16 per share in cash  dividends  and a
decrease in the unrealized gain on securities available for sale.

At September  30, 1999,  non-performing  assets  totaled $2.0 million or .80% of
assets  compared  to  $1.1  million  or  .60%  of  assets  at  March  31,  1999.
Non-performing  loans  totaled $1.1 million or .63 % of total loans at September
30, 1999  compared to  $750,000  or .44% of total  loans at March 31,  1999.  At
September 30, 1999 non-performing assets were comprised of one loan secured by a
certificate of deposit,  seven  personal  residence  loans,  seven single family
rental properties, a construction loan and three consumer loans more than ninety
days past due. Also included in non-performing assets is approximately  $400,000
of single family  residential  properties  and one multi family loan of $454,000
which was acquired by foreclosure.  In addition to the nonperforming  assets, at
September  30, 1999,  the company had other loans of concern  consisting of nine
single family loans,  four rental real estate loans,  two  commercial  loan with
total balances of $450,000 and unsecured  loans with balances of $46,000.  Based
on current market values of the collateral  securing our  non-performing  assets
and other loans of  concern,  management  does not  anticipate  any  significant
losses  in excess of the  reserves  for  losses  previously  recorded.  While we
currently believe that our loans are adequately secured or reserved for, many of
the loans made by us are  secured by  residential  properties  used as  vacation
homes or rental properties by the borrowers. In the event the real estate rental
market  substantially   weakens  or  economic  conditions  in  our  market  area
deteriorate,  it is possible  both that some of these  borrowers may default and
that the value of the real estate collateral may be insufficient to fully secure
the  loan.  In such  event,  the  Company  may  experience  increased  levels of
delinquencies  and related  losses  having an adverse  impact on net income.  At
September 30, 1999 the Company's  allowance for loan losses totaled $1.2 million
or .60% of net loans receivable and 61% of non-performing  assets.  See "Results
of Operations -Six Months Ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 - Provision for Loan
Losses."

Management establishes an allowance for loan losses based on an analysis of risk
factors  in the  loan  portfolio.  This  analysis  includes  the  evaluation  of
concentrations  of credit,  past loss experience,  current economic  conditions,
amount and composition of the loan portfolio, estimated fair value of underlying
collateral,  loan  commitments  outstanding,  delinquencies,  and other factors.
Since the Company has had extremely low loan losses during its

                                       6
<PAGE>


history,  management  also  considers loss  experience of similar  portfolios in
comparable lending markets.  Accordingly, the calculation of the adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses was not based directly on the level of  non-performing
assets.

Management  will continue to monitor the  allowance for loan losses  through the
provision  for loan losses as economic  conditions  and other  factors  dictate.
Although the Company maintains its allowance for loan losses at a level which it
considers to be adequate to provide for losses,  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.   In  addition,
management's  determination as to the amount of the allowance for loan losses is
subject to review by OTS and the Federal Deposit  Insurance  Corporation as part
of their  examination  process,  which  may  result in the  establishment  of an
additional allowance based upon their judgement of the information  available to
them at the time of their examination.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Historically,  the Bank has  maintained  its  liquid  assets  above the  minimum
requirements  imposed by federal regulations and at a level believed adequate to
meet  requirements  of normal daily  activities,  repayment of maturing debt and
potential  deposit  outflows.  Cash flow projections are regularly  reviewed and
updated to assure that adequate liquidity is provided. As of September 30, 1999,
the Bank's  liquidity  ratio (liquid assets as a percentage of net  withdrawable
savings  and  current  borrowings)  was 13.01%,  which  exceeds  the  regulatory
requirement.

The Bank is subject to certain capital to asset  requirements in accordance with
Bank regulations.  See Note 3 of the Notes to Consolidated  Financial Statements
contained in this report.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended September 30, 1999 and 1998.
- ----------------------------------------------

      General.  Net income for the three  months  ended  September  30, 1999 was
$369,605 compared to $373,143 for the three months ended September 30, 1998. The
slight decrease was due primarily to an increase in noninterest  expenses and an
increase in the provision for loan losses,  offset by an increase in noninterest
income and net interest income. Income before income taxes increased to $681,343
for the three months ended September 30, 1999 from $664,285 for the three months
ended September 30, 1998.

      Interest  Income.  Total interest income increased to $3.9 million for the
three months ended  September  30, 1999,  from $3.6 million for the three months
ended  September 30, 1998. The increase in interest  income was due primarily to
an increase in the average  balance of  outstanding  loans for the three  months
ended  September  30, 1999 as compared to the period ended  September  30, 1998,
offset by a decrease in the average yield on earnings  assets from 8.26% for the
three  months  ended  September  30,  1998 to 8.03% for the three  months  ended
September 30, 1999.

      Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased to $2.0 million for the
three months ended  September  30, 1999,  from $1.8 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1998. Interest on deposits decreased to $1.5 million for the
three  months  ended  September  30, 1999 from $1.6 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1998 due primarily to a decrease in the average rate paid on
deposits. The average rate paid on deposits for the three months ended September
30,  1999 was 4.17%  compared  to 4.57% for the same  period in the prior  year.
Interest  expense on borrowed money  increased to $419,297 for the quarter ended
September 30, 1999,  from $224,685 for the quarter ended September 30, 1998, due
to an  increase  in average  borrowings  from the  Federal  Home Loan Bank.  The
average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities was

                                       7
<PAGE>

4.68% for the three months ended  September  30, 1999  compared to 4.72% for the
three months ended September 30, 1998.

      Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses increased to
$110,154 for the three months ended September 30, 1999, from $25,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 1998. The increase in provision for loan losses
is attributable primarily to charge-offs on one-to-four family loans and
foreclosed property for the three months ended September 30, 1999. "See
Financial Condition."

      Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased to $866,655 for the three
months  ended  September  30,  1999,  from  $397,021  for the three months ended
September 30, 1998 due primarily to both an increase in service  charges and the
resolution  of  expenses  related to the Bank's  computer  conversion.  The Bank
converted to an in-house computer system in November 1998 and incurred excessive
expenses of $149,000  related to the  conversion  which were  reimbursed  by the
software provider.  The increase in service charges, fees and commissions is due
to the increase in secondary  mortgage  loan sales at Community  First  Mortgage
("First Mortgage").

      Noninterest  Expenses.  Noninterest  expense increased to $2.0 million for
the three months ended  September 30, 1999, from $1.4 for the three months ended
September 30, 1998. The increase in noninterest  expense is attributable to both
increased  staffing as a result of increased  loan  origination  activity and an
increase  in  compensation  and other  expenses  related  to the  opening  of an
additional office in Staunton, Virginia during the quarter.

      Taxes.  Taxes  increased to $311,738 for the three months ended  September
30, 1999,  from $291,142 for the three months ended  September 30, 1998,  due to
both an  increase  in income  before  taxes  and an  increase  in the  Company's
effective income tax rate to 45.8% for the three months ended September 30, 1999
compared to 43.9% for the three months ended  September 30, 1998.  The Company's
effective  tax  rate  increased  due to increased  loan  charge-offs  which  are
nondeductible.


Six Months Ended September 30, 1999 and 1998
- --------------------------------------------

      General.  Net income  for the six  months  ended  September  30,  1999 was
$880,781  compared to $879,503 for the six months ended  September  30, l998 for
the same reasons discussed above.  Income before income taxes remained unchanged
at $1.5 million for the six months ended  September  30, 1999 and  September 30,
1998.

      Interest  Income.  Total interest income increased to $7.4 million for the
six months ended  September 30, 1999, from $7.1 million for the six months ended
September 30, 1998, due primarily to an increase in the average balance of loans
and investment securities outstanding during the period, offset by a decrease in
the yield on loans and securities from 8.26% to 8.05% for the same period.

      Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased to $3.8 million for the
six months ended  September 30, 1999, from $3.7 million for the six months ended
September 30, 1998.  Interest on deposits remained unchanged at $3.1 million for
the six months  ended  September  30,  1999,  from the same period last year due
primarily to an increase in the average outstanding deposit balances offset by a
decrease in the rate paid.  The rate paid on deposits  decreased  from 4.57% for
the six months  ended  September  30,  1998 to 4.21% for the same  period in the
current fiscal year.  Interest  expense on borrowed money  increased to $705,740
for the six months  ended  September  30, 1999 from  $506,718 for the six months
ended September 30, 1998, due primarily to increased borrowings.

      Provision  for Loan Losses.  The  provision  for loan losses  increased to
$179,154 for the six months ended September 30, 1999, from $ 99,999 for the same
period  last  year.  The  increase  is   attributable   primarily  to  increased
charge-offs  on  one-to-four  family loans and  foreclosed  property for the six
months ended  September 30, 1999 compared to the six months ended  September 30,
1998.

                                       8
<PAGE>


      Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased to $1,954,832 for the six
months  ended  September  30,  1999,  from  $792,269  for the six  months  ended
September 30, 1998, due to an increase in service charges, fees, commissions and
gains on securities  transactions and the  reimbursement of $149,000 in computer
expenses as described above.

      Noninterest  Expenses.  Noninterest expenses increased to $3.8 million for
the six months ended  September 30, 1999,  from $2.6 million for the same period
last year.  The  increase  in  noninterest  expense is  attributable  to both an
increase in compensation due to increased staffing and other expenses related to
growth in Community Bank and Community First Mortgage as described above.

      Taxes.  Taxes were  relatively  unchanged  at $667,234  for the six months
ended  September 30, 1999,  from $667,556 for the six months ended September 30,
1998.


YEAR 2000 ISSUES

      The approaching millennium is causing organizations of all types to review
their computer  systems for the ability to properly  accommodate  the year 2000.
When computer  systems were first  developed,  two digits were used to designate
the year in date calculations and "19" was assumed for the century. As a result,
there is significant concern about the integrity of date sensitive  calculations
when the calendar rolls over to January 1, 2000. An older system could interpret
01/01/00 as January 1, 1900,  potentially  causing  major  problems  calculating
information related to interest,  principal payments,  delinquencies or maturity
dates.  An internal  committee  comprised of senior  officers and management has
been  formed  to  address  the  potential  risk  that the year  2000  poses  for
Community.  This committee  reports to the full board of directors  quarterly or
more often as warranted.

      Financial  institution  regulators  have issued  guidance  concerning  the
responsibilities  of senior  management  and  directors.  The Federal  Financial
Institutions  Examination Council has issued several  interagency  statements on
Year 2000 Project  Management  Awareness.  These  statements  require  financial
institutions to, among other things, examine the year 2000 issue with respect to
their  customers,  suppliers and borrowers.  These  statements also require each
federally insured financial institution to survey its exposure, measure its risk
and  prepare a plan to address  the year 2000 issue.  In  addition,  the federal
banking regulators have issued safety and soundness guidelines to be followed by
insured depository institutions to assure resolution of any year 2000 problems.

      Accurate  data  processing  is essential to our  operations  and a lack of
accurate processing by our vendors or us could have a significant adverse impact
on our financial  condition and results of operations.  Based on our testing, we
believe that our in-house data processing  operations will function  properly on
and after January 1, 2000. A contingency plan, however, has been developed by us
in the  unlikely  event  that our data  processing  operations  do not  function
properly on or after January 1, 2000. This plan focuses on conducting operations
in a manual mode, including the recording of transactions on spreadsheets.

      We have  also  received  year  2000  updates  from  most of our  material,
non-information system providers, including but not limited to security cameras,
credit card and ATM card processors, the vault alarm, check printers,  telephone
systems,  participation  loan servicers,  and  institutions we invest through or
with.  Based on these updates,  we do not anticipate any  significant  year 2000
issues. Our future expense to be year 2000 compliant is immaterial.

      In addition to expenses related to our own systems,  we could incur losses
if loan  payments  are delayed due to year 2000  problems  affecting  any of our
