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.


                                       9
<PAGE>

         In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
         No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
         Activities," which was originally required to be adopted in years
         beginning after June 15, 1999. Statement No. 137, issued in June 1999,
         subsequently amended the effective date of Statement No. 133 to years
         beginning after June 15, 2000. 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 nine months ending September 30, 1999
         increased $17,599,107 or 19.2% since December 31, 1998. This increase
         in total assets resulted from a $11,784,023 or 18.1% increase in net
         loans, an increase in federal funds sold of $3,726,000 or 45.0% and an
         increase of $689,216 or 6.9% in securities. This equates to an addition
         in earning assets of $15,785,285 or 18.7% in the nine months ending
         September 30, 1999.

         Allowance for Loan Losses
         -------------------------
         The allowance for loan losses, as of September 30, 1999, was $743,025.
         This is a decrease of $11,572 or 1.5% since December 31, 1998. This
         gives the bank a .96% allowance for loan losses to total loans.
         Management has completed an analysis on the reserve and feels the
         reserve is adequate.

                                       11
<PAGE>


         Liabilities
         -----------

         Total deposits for the nine months ending September 30, 1999, increased
         $16,999,978 or 20.7% since December 31, 1998. Non-interest bearing
         deposits increased by $4,628,600 or 43.3% and interest bearing deposits
         increased by $12,371,378 or 17.3%. Non-interest bearing deposits
         represented 15.4% of total deposits as of September 30, 1999 as
         compared to 13.0% at 1998 year end. Savings and money market deposits
         were 30.8% of total deposits at the 1999 third quarter mark, which was
         an increase from 29.3% on December 31, 1998.

         Stockholders' Equity
         --------------------

         Total equity has increased by $579,240 or 6.6% since December 31, 1998.
         The increase was due in part to a profit for the nine months of
         $787,050 and an increase in unrealized losses on securities available
         for sale of $118,676 net of tax. In addition, during the first nine
         months $2,500 of capital was raised through the exercise of stock
         options equating to 500 additional shares of common stock and the
         Corporation repurchased 13,144 shares of common stock for $91,634 under
         the guidelines approved by the Board of Directors. The primary capital
         to assets ratio is 8.6%.

         Interest Income
         ---------------

         Interest income totaled $6,140,583 for the nine months ending September
         30, 1999, $1,093,785 or 21.7% higher than the nine months ending
         September 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 nine months ending September 30, 1999
         was $2,581,092, an increase of $457,941 or 21.6% over the nine months
         ending September 30, 1998. Interest on deposits increased by $460,193
         or 21.8% over the same period in 1998. This was the result of an
         overall increase in deposits. Interest on capital leases for the
         quarter was $13,426, $2,252 or 14.3% less than the same period in 1998.

         Net Interest Income
         -------------------

         Net interest income for the nine months ending September 30, 1999 was
         $3,559,491, $635,844 or 21.7% higher than the nine months ending
         September 30, 1998. This was the result of an increase in our earning
         assets. The average rate of the net interest margin has shown a steady
                                       12
<PAGE>

         decline due to a reduction in loan yields. The bank's net interest
         income remains in the mid to upper 80 percentile range when compared
         with its peer group.

         Other Income
         ------------

         Total other income for the nine months ending September 30, 1999 was
         $639,511, $49,319 or 8.4% higher than the same period in 1998. This is
         a result of a continued increase in the demand deposit accounts, which
         has increased our service charge income.

         Other Expenses
         --------------

         Total other expenses for the nine months ending September 30, 1999 were
         $2,828,009, $453,112 or 19.1% higher than the nine months ending
         September 30, 1998. Salary expense increased $276,635 or 24.6%, postage
         expense increased $20,624 or 28.6%, furniture and equipment expense
         decreased by $1,530 or .6%, ATM expense increased $76,045 or 109.1% and
         stationery and supplies increased $51,714 or 69.2% over the same period
         in 1998. Director's fees were $61,150, a decrease of 1.9%. Overdraft
         charge-offs reflect an increase of $18,435 or 38.1% as a result of some
         bad check returns and the purging of demand deposits accounts. Legal
         and professional fees decreased $16,126 or 25.3%. The increase in
         salary expense was in part a result of additional employees hired to
         assist with the bank's increased growth. Postage and supplies were both
         impacted by this growth. The large increase in ATM expense reflects a
         conversion of the bank's ATM system to another provider.

         Net Income
         ----------

         Net income for the nine months ending September 30, 1999 was $787,050
         compared to $975,596 in the same period in 1998. This is a decrease of
         $188,546 or 19.3% 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 $415,597 from a $6,654 benefit in 1998 to an expense of
         $408,943 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 78.1%. In order to maximize earning assets,
         management has carried a higher ratio than that of its peers. This
         policy 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 borrower to address the Year 2000 issue could
         have 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. A business resumption contingency plan has been tested
         and is in place. 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 also initiated 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 likely worst-case scenario
         would entail a diminishment of service levels, customer inconveniences,
         financial losses, legal liability and similar risks.
