7.       New Accounting Pronouncements

         In October 1998,  the FASB issued  Statement No. 134,  "Accounting  for
         Mortgage-Backed   Securities   Retained  after  the  Securitization  of
         Mortgage  Loans  Held for Sale by a  Mortgage  Banking  Enterprise,  an
         amendment of FASB Statement No. 65." FASB Statement No. 65, as amended,
         requires that, after  securitization  of a mortgage loan held for sale,
         an entity engaged in mortgage banking activities classify the resulting
         mortgage-backed  security as a trading security. This Statement further
         amends  Statement  No. 65 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 investment. This Statement conforms the subsequent accounting for
         securities  retained  after the  securitization  of mortgage loans by a
         mortgage  banking   enterprise  with  the  subsequent   accounting  for
         securities  retained after the  securitization of other types of assets
         by a  non-mortgage  banking  enterprise.  This  Statement  is effective
         beginning in 1999.  The effect of this  Statement on the  Corporation's
         consolidated financial statements is not expected to be material.

         In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
         No.  133,   "Accounting   for   Derivative   Instruments   and  Hedging
         Activities,"  which is required to be adopted in years  beginning after
         June 15, 1999. The Statement permits early adoption as of the beginning
         of any fiscal  quarter after its issuance.  The Bank has not determined
         whether to adopt the new statement  early.  The Statement  will require
         the Bank to  recognize  all  derivatives  on the balance  sheet at fair
         value.  Derivatives  that are not hedges must be adjusted to fair value
         through income.  If the derivative is a hedge,  depending on the nature
         of the hedge,  changes in the fair value of derivatives  will either be
         offset  against  the  change  in  fair  value  of  the  hedged  assets,
         liabilities,  or firm  commitments  through  earnings or  recognized in
         other  comprehensive  income  until the hedged  item is  recognized  in
         earnings.  The  ineffective  portion of a  derivative's  change in fair
         value will be immediately recognized in earnings.

         Because  the  Bank  does  not  employ  such   derivative   instruments,
         management  does not anticipate  that the adoption of the new Statement
         will have any effect on the Bank's earnings or financial position.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations



         General
         Marathon  Financial  Corporation ("the  Corporation") is a bank holding
         company that was  incorporated  under the laws of the  Commonwealth  of
         Virginia  in June 1989.  The  Corporation  owns all of the  outstanding
         stock of its sole subsidiary, The Marathon Bank ("the Bank"), which was
         incorporated  in August 1987 and acquired by the Corporation in October
         1990,  in  accordance  with  the  Plan  of  Exchange  approved  by  the
         shareholders of the Bank in June 1990. The Corporation is headquartered
         in Frederick County, Virginia. The Corporation is a holding company for
         the Bank and is not  directly  engaged  in the  operation  of any other
         business.

         The Bank is engaged in the business of offering banking services to the
         general public. It offers checking accounts, savings and time deposits,
         and commercial, real estate, personal, home improvement, automobile and
         other installment and term loans. It also offers travelers checks, safe
         deposit,  collection,  notary public and other  customary bank services
         (with the  exception  of trust  services) to its  customers.  The three
         principal  types of loans  made by the Bank  are:  (1)  commercial  and
         industrial  loans;  (2) real estate loans; and (3) loans to individuals
         for household, family and other consumer expenditures.

         Total Assets
         Total  assets for the first six months  ending June 30, 1999  increased
         $10,883,871  or 11.8% since  December 31, 1998.  This increase in total
         assets  resulted from a $6,846,242 or 10.5%  increase in net loans,  an
         increase in federal funds sold of $3,115,000 or 37.6% and a decrease of
         $603,501 or 6.1% in securities.  This equates to an increase in earning
         assets of $9,332,847 or 11.1% in the six months ending June 30, 1999.

         Allowance for Loan Losses
         The allowance for loan losses, as of June 30, 1999, was $804,758.  This
         is an increase of $50,161 or 6.6% since  December 31, 1998.  This gives
         the bank a 1.10%  allowance for loan losses to total loans.  Management
         has  completed  an  analysis  on the  reserve  and feels the reserve is
         adequate.


                                       10

         Liabilities
         Total  deposits  for the six months  ending  June 30,  1999,  increased
         $10,571,304  or 12.8% since  December  31, 1998.  Non-interest  bearing
         deposits  increased  by  $2,167,343  or 20.3% and savings and  interest
         bearing deposits increased by $3,889,232 or 16.1%.

         Stockholders' Equity
         Total equity has increased by $333,782 or 3.8% since December 31, 1998.
         The  increase  was due to a first half  profit of  $498,549,  which was
         reduced by an increase in unrealized losses on securities available for
         sale of $101,008 net of tax. An additional $2,500 of capital was raised
         through the exercise of stock options equating to 500 additional shares
         of common  stock.  During  the first half the  Corporation  repurchased
         8,500 shares of common stock for $60,258 under the guidelines  approved
         by the Board of Directors. The primary capital to assets ratio is 8.9%.

         Interest Income
         Interest  income totaled  $3,978,386 for the six months ending June 30,
         1999,  $766,857  or 23.9%  higher  than the six months  ending June 30,
         1998. This is a direct result of the increase in earning assets,  which
         increased the interest and fee income.

         Interest Expense
         Total  interest  expense  for the six months  ending  June 30, 1999 was
         $1,662,357,  $329,101 or 24.7%  higher than the six months  ending June
         30, 1998.  Interest on deposits increased by $330,819 or 25.0% over the
         same  period in 1998.  This was the  result of an overall  increase  in
         deposits. Interest on capital leases for the quarter was $9,013, $1,718
         or 16.0% less than the same period in 1998.

         Net Interest Income
         Net  interest  income  for the six  months  ending  June  30,  1999 was
         $2,316,029,  $437,756 or 23.3%  higher than the six months  ending June
         30, 1998. This was the result of an increase in our earning assets.

<PAGE>


         Other Income
         Total  other  income  for the six  months  ending  June  30,  1999  was
         $414,617,  $34,738 or 9.1% higher than the same period in 1998. This is
         a result of an  increase  in the  demand  deposit  accounts,  which has
         increased our service charge income.

         Other Expenses
         Total  other  expenses  for the six months  ending  June 30,  1999 were
         $1,850,842,  $293,579 or 18.9%  higher than the six months  ending June
         30, 1998. Salary expense increased  $178,848 or 24.0%,  postage expense
         increased  $10,252 or 22.5%,  furniture and equipment  expense remained
         virtually level, ATM expense increased $39,852 or 109.2% and stationery
         and supplies  increased  $33,312 or 72.7% over the same period in 1998.
         Director's fees were $1,440, an increase of 3.3%. Overdraft charge-offs
         reflect an increase  of $37,287 or 175.4% as a result of the  write-off
         of some demand  deposits  accounts due to the return of checks taken on
         deposit.  Legal and professional  fees decreased  $13,536 or 26.9%. The
         net  increase  in  other  expenses  is in part a result  of  additional
         staffing  to handle  the growth of the bank and the costs  involved  in
         processing an increased number of accounts and transactions.

         Net Income
         Net  income  for the six  months  ending  June 30,  1999  was  $498,549
         compared to $622,326 in the same period in 1998.  This is a decrease of
         $123,777 or 19.9% over the same period of 1998.  The  reduction  in net
         income was the result of the Corporation having to recognize income tax
         expense for the first time due to the elimination of net operating loss
         carryforwards  during 1999.  The  provision  for income  taxes  expense
         increased  $297,692  from a $31,437  benefit  in 1998 to an  expense of
         $266,255 in 1999.

         Liquidity and Capital Resources
         The liquidity  position of the bank is less than its peers because of a
         loan to deposit ratio of 78.3%.  In order to maximize  earning  assets,
         management has exceeded the bank's policy by maintaining a higher ratio
         than that of its peers.  This policy exception has been approved by the
         Board of  Directors.  As the core  deposits  of the  bank  continue  to
         increase, this ratio has become more in line with that of the industry.

         Year 2000 Issue
         The Year 2000  issue  involves  the risk  that  computer  programs  and
         computer systems may not be able to perform without  interruption  into
         the Year 2000. If computer systems do not correctly  recognize the date
         change from December 31, 1999 to January 1, 2000, computer applications
         that rely on the date  field  could fail or create  erroneous  results.
         Such erroneous  results could affect interest payments or due dates and
         could cause the  temporary  inability  to process  transactions  and to
         engage in ordinary business activities. The failure of the Corporation,
         its  suppliers,  and its borrowers to address the Year 2000 issue could
         have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  the   Corporation's   financial
         condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

         In 1997,  the  Corporation  initiated  a review and  assessment  of all
         hardware and  software.  Based on this  assessment,  the  Corporation's
         mainframe hardware and banking software was replaced in 1998 to be Year
         2000 compliant.  However,  testing is required to confirm this. Testing
         began in the  third  quarter  of 1998 and was  completed  in the  first
         quarter of 1999. To date, the  Corporation  has expended  approximately
         $220,000  related to the  assessment of and efforts in connection  with
         the Year 2000 issue.  Remaining expenditures are not expected to have a
         material effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements.

         The Corporation has continuing formal  communications  with significant
         loan and  deposit  customers  to  determine  the  extent  to which  the
         Corporation  is  vulnerable to those third  parties'  failure to remedy
         their own Year 2000 issue.

         Although the  Corporation has no reason to conclude that a failure will
         occur,  there  can be no  assurances  that  there  will be no  problems
         related to the Year 2000. This is an unprecedented  event.  While it is
         impossible  to  quantify  the  impact,   the  most  reasonably   likely
         worst-case  scenario  would  entail  diminishment  of  service  levels,
         customer inconveniences,  financial losses, legal liability and similar
         risks.
