NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect
all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Trust's financial
position and results of operations. All such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature. These financial statements and the accompanying notes should
be read in conjunction with the Trust's audited consolidated financial
statements included in its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September
30,1999. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of results to be expected for the year.

2. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
B.F.Saul Real Estate Investment Trust and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the
"Real Estate Trust"), which are involved in the ownership and development of
income-producing properties. The accounts of the Trust's 80%-owned banking
subsidiary, Chevy Chase Bank, F.S.B., and its subsidiaries ("Chevy Chase" or the
"Bank") have also been consolidated. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated
financial statements reflect the assets, liabilities, operating results, and
cash flows for two business segments: Real Estate and Banking. All significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

3. The Real Estate Trust voluntarily terminated its qualification as a real
estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code during fiscal 1978. As a
result of the Trust's acquisition of an additional 20% equity interest in the
Bank in June 1990, the Bank became a member of the Trust's affiliated group
filing consolidated federal income tax returns. The current effect of the
Trust's consolidation of the Bank's operations into its federal income tax
return results in the use of the Trust's net operating losses and net operating
loss carryforwards to reduce the federal income taxes the Bank would otherwise
owe.

BANKING:

Financial Condition

General. The Bank continued its pattern of growth during the current quarter
with total assets increasing to $10.1 billion, an increase of $338 million from
December 31, 1999. Total loans increased $721 million during the quarter, funded
primarily with available cash and increases in brokered deposits. The Bank
recorded operating income of $13.4 million during the quarter ended March 31,
2000, compared to operating income of $49.7 million in the prior corresponding
quarter. The decrease in income for the quarter was attributable to a $37.4
million decrease in other (non-interest) income due to the inclusion in last
year's results of a $31.6 million gain on the sale of an REO property and an
increase in operating (non-interest) expense of $12.5 million. Partially
offsetting the reduction of income were increases in net interest income of
$19.7 million and deposit servicing fees of $3.7 million. See "Results of
Operations."

At March 31, 2000, the Bank's tangible, core, tier 1 risk-based and total
risk-based regulatory capital ratios were 5.50%, 5.50%, 7.44% and 11.48%,
respectively. The Bank's regulatory capital ratios exceeded the requirements
under the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989
("FIRREA") as well as the standards established for "well-capitalized"
institutions under the prompt corrective action regulations issued pursuant to
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA").
See "Capital."

During the quarter ended March 31, 2000, the Bank declared and paid out of the
retained earnings of the Bank a cash dividend on its Common Stock in the amount
of $400 per share.

Asset Quality. Non-Performing Assets. The following table sets forth information
concerning the Bank's non-performing assets at the dates indicated. The figures
shown are after charge-offs and, in the case of REO, after all valuation
allowances.

Non-performing assets totaled $57.6 million, after valuation allowances on REO
of $83.3 million, at March 31, 2000, compared to $62.3 million, after valuation
allowances on REO of $83.9 million, at December 31, 1999. In addition to the
valuation allowances on REO, the Bank maintained $58.1 million of valuation
allowances on its loan and lease portfolio at March 31, 2000. The $4.7 million
decrease in non-performing assets for the current quarter was attributable to
decreases in REO of $2.9 million and non-accrual loans of $1.8 million. See
"Non-accrual Loans" and "REO."

Non-accrual Loans. The Bank's non-accrual loans totaled $15.6 million at March
31, 2000, as compared to $17.4 million at December 31, 1999. At March 31, 2000,
non-accrual loans consisted of $5.0 million of non-accrual real estate loans and
$10.6 million of non-accrual consumer and other loans compared to non-accrual
real estate loans of $5.1 million and non-accrual consumer and other loans of
$12.3 million at December 31, 1999 The decrease in non-accrual consumer and
other loans was primarily due to decreased delinquency rates following
December's traditional seasonal highs.

REO. At March 31, 2000, the Bank's REO totaled $42.0 million, after valuation
allowances on such assets of $83.3 million as set forth in the following table.
The principal component of REO consists of four planned unit developments (the
"Communities"), all of which are under active development. Only commercial
ground properties remain in two of the four Communities.

During the three months ended March 31, 2000, REO decreased $2.9 million, which
was primarily attributable to additional sales in the Communities and other
properties, partially offset by additional capitalized costs.

During the three months ended March 31, 2000, the Bank received revenues of $4.3
million from dispositions of 71 residential lots or units in the Communities
($3.3 million), approximately 4.5 acres of commercial land in one of the
Communities ($0.3 million) and various single-family residential properties
($0.7 million).

Delinquent Loans. At March 31, 2000, delinquent loans totaled $61.9 million, or
0.8% of loans, compared to $76.7 million, or 1.1% of loans, at December 31,
1999. The following table sets forth information regarding the Bank's delinquent

At March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the Bank's total valuation allowances
for losses on loans and leases and real estate held for investment or sale were
$141.7 million, which remained virtually unchanged from the $142.3 million at
December 31, 1999. Management reviews the adequacy of the valuation allowances
on loans and leases and real estate using a variety of measures and tools
including historical loss performance, delinquent status, internal risk ratings,
current economic conditions and current underwriting policies and procedures.
Using this analysis, management determines a range of acceptable valuation
allowances. Although the amount of delinquent and non-accrual consumer loans
increased during the six months ended March 31, 2000, the provision for loan and
lease losses approximated the amount of net charge-offs for the period,
reflecting management's determination that the overall level of the allowance
remained appropriate.

The allowance for losses on loans secured by real estate and real estate held
for investment or sale totaled $100.7 million at March 31, 2000, which
constituted 77.2% of total non-performing real estate assets, before valuation
allowances. During the three months ended March 31, 2000, the Bank recorded net
charge-offs of $0.9 million on these assets. The allowance for losses on real
estate held for sale at March 31, 2000 is in addition to approximately $40.2
million of cumulative charge-offs previously taken against assets remaining in
the Bank's portfolio at March 31, 2000.

The combined allowance for losses on consumer loans and leases, including
automobile, subprime automobile, home improvement and related loans, overdraft
lines of credit and other consumer loans was $36.3 million, unchanged from the
amount at December 31, 1999. The ratios of the allowance for losses on consumer
loans to non-performing consumer loans and to outstanding consumer loans were
344.0% and 1.7%, respectively, at March 31, 2000 compared to 297.9% and 2.1%,
respectively, at December 31, 1999.

Asset and Liability Management. The following table presents the interest rate
sensitivity of the Bank's interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities at March 31, 2000, which reflects management's estimate of mortgage
loan prepayments, amortization and provisions for loans and leases with
adjustable interest rates. Adjustable and floating rate loans are included in
the period in which their interest rates are next scheduled to adjust, and
prepayment rates are assumed for the Bank's loans based on recent actual and
market experience. Statement savings and passbook accounts with balances under
$20,000 are classified based upon management's assumed attrition rate of 17.5%,
and those with balances of $20,000 or more, as well as all NOW accounts, are
assumed to be subject to repricing within six months or less.

The interest sensitivity "gap" shown in the table represents the sum of all
interest-earning assets minus all interest-bearing liabilities subject to
repricing within the same period. The one-year gap, as a percentage of total
assets, was a negative 21.7% at March 31, 2000 compared to a negative 26.8% at
December 31, 1999. The improvement in the Bank's one-year gap during this period
reflects an increase in production of adjustable rate mortgage loans with
repricing terms of less than one-year coupled with an increase of automobile
loans held for securitization and sale.

Capital. At March 31, 2000, the Bank was in compliance with all of its
regulatory capital requirements under FIRREA, and its capital ratios exceeded
the ratios established for "well-capitalized" institutions under OTS prompt
corrective action regulations.

The following table shows the Bank's regulatory capital levels at March 31, 2000
in relation to the regulatory requirements in effect at that date. The
information below is based upon the Bank's understanding of the regulations and
interpretations currently in effect and may be subject to change.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

REAL ESTATE

General. The Real Estate Trust's primary cash requirements include operating
expenses, debt service, debt principal repayment and capital expenditures.
During fiscal 1999 and 1998, the Real Estate Trust generated positive cash flow
from operating activities, including the receipt of dividends and tax sharing
payments from Chevy Chase Bank, and is expected to do so for the foreseeable
future. However, the Real Estate Trust's cash flow from operating activities has
historically been insufficient to pay principal and interest on its outstanding
debt securities and to fund capital expenditures. These shortfalls have
historically been funded through external sources including additional
borrowings and refinancings and proceeds from asset sales. Overall, the Real
Estate Trust's ability to generate positive cash flow from operating activities
and to meet its liquidity needs in the future, including debt service payments,
repayment of debt principal and capital expenditures, will continue to depend on
dividends and tax sharing payments from the Bank.

Historically, the Real Estate Trust's total cash requirements have exceeded the
cash generated by its operations. This condition is currently the case and is
expected to continue to be so for the foreseeable future. The Real Estate
Trust's internal sources of funds, primarily cash flow generated by its
income-producing properties, generally have been sufficient to meet its cash
needs other than the repayment of principal on outstanding debt, including
outstanding unsecured notes sold to the public, the payment of interest on its
senior secured notes, and the payment of capital improvement costs. In the past,
the Real Estate Trust funded such shortfalls through a combination of external
funding sources, primarily new financings (including the sale of unsecured
notes), refinancings of maturing mortgage debt, asset sales and tax sharing
payments and dividends from the Bank. See the Consolidated Statements of Cash
Flows included in the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.

Liquidity. The Real Estate Trust's ability to meet its liquidity needs,
including debt service payments in the balance of fiscal 2000 and subsequent
years, will depend in significant part on its receipt of dividends from the Bank
and tax sharing payments from the Bank pursuant to the tax sharing agreement
among the Trust, the Bank, and their subsidiaries. The availability and amount
of tax sharing payments and dividends in future periods is dependent upon, among
other things, the Bank's operating performance and income, regulatory
restrictions on such payments, and in the case of tax sharing payments, the
continued consolidation of the Bank and the Bank's subsidiaries with the Trust
for federal income tax purposes.

The Real Estate Trust believes that the financial condition and operating
results of the Bank in recent periods, should enhance prospects for the Real
Estate Trust to receive tax sharing payments and dividends from the Bank. In the
first six months of fiscal 2000, the Bank made no tax sharing payments, but did
make dividend payments of $6.4 million to the Real Estate Trust.
<PAGE>
In recent years, the operations of the Trust have generated net operating losses
while the Bank has reported net income. It is anticipated that the Trust's
consolidation of the Bank's operations into the Trust's federal income tax
return will result in the use of the Trust's net operating losses to reduce the
federal income taxes the Bank would otherwise owe. If, in any future year, the
Bank has taxable losses or unused credits, the Trust would be obligated to
reimburse the Bank for the greater of (i) the tax benefit to the group using
such tax losses or unused tax credits in the group's consolidated federal income
tax returns or (ii) the amount of the refund which the Bank would otherwise have
been able to claim if it were not being included in the consolidated federal
income tax return of the group.

Through March 31,2000, the Trust has purchased either in the open market or
through dividend reinvestment approximately 2,450,000 shares of common stock of
Saul Centers (representing 18.2% of such company's outstanding common stock). As
of March 31,2000, the market value of these shares was approximately $39.5
million. All shares have been pledged as collateral with the Real Estate Trust's
credit line banks.

In fiscal 1994, the Real Estate Trust refinanced a significant portion of its
outstanding secured indebtedness with the proceeds of the issuance of $175.0
million aggregate principal amount of 11 5/8% Senior Secured Notes due 2002 (the
"1994 Notes"). In March 1998, the Real Estate Trust issued $200.0 million
aggregate principal amount of 9 3/4% Senior Secured Notes due 2008 (the "1998
Notes"). After providing for the retirement of the 1994 Notes, including a
prepayment premium of $10.0 million and debt issuance costs of approximately
$5.9 million, the Real Estate Trust realized approximately $9.1 million in new
funds. In addition, the Real Estate Trust received about $13.2 million in cash
which had been held as additional collateral by the indenture agent under the
1994 Notes. The 1998 Notes are secured by a first priority perfected security
interest in 8,000 shares or 80% of the issued and outstanding common stock of
the Bank, which constitute all of the Bank common stock held by the Real Estate
Trust. The 1998 Notes are nonrecourse obligations of the Real Estate Trust.

The Real Estate Trust is currently selling unsecured notes, with a maturity
ranging from one to ten years, primarily to provide funds to repay maturing
unsecured notes. To the degree that the Real Estate Trust does not sell new
unsecured notes in an amount sufficient to finance completely the scheduled
repayment of outstanding unsecured notes as they mature, it will finance such
repayments from other sources of funds.

In fiscal 1995, the Real Estate Trust established a $15.0 million secured
revolving credit line with an unrelated bank. This facility was for an initial
two-year period subject to extension for one or more additional one-year terms.
In fiscal 1997, the facility was increased to $20.0 million and was renewed for
an additional two-year period. In September 1999, this facility was increased to
$50.0 million and its term was set at three years with provisions for extending
the term annually. The current maturity date is September 29, 2002. This
facility is secured by a portion of the Real Estate Trust's ownership in Saul
Holdings Partnership and Saul Centers. Interest is computed by reference to a
floating rate index. At March 31,2000, the Real Estate Trust had outstanding
borrowings of $27.2 million and unrestricted availability of $4.9 million.
<PAGE>
In fiscal 1996, the Real Estate Trust established an $8.0 million revolving
credit line with an unrelated bank, secured by a portion of the Real Estate
Trust's ownership interest in Saul Holdings Limited Partnership ("Saul Holdings
Partnership"). This facility was initially for a one-year term, after which any
outstanding loan amount would amortize over a two-year period. During fiscal
1997, the line of credit was increased to $10.0 million and was extended for a
year. During fiscal 1998, the credit was increased to $20.0 million and was
extended for an additional year. The current maturity date for this line is July
31, 2001. Interest is computed by reference to a floating rate index. At March
31,2000, the Real Estate Trust had outstanding borrowings of $9.0 million and
unrestricted availability of $7.9 million.

The maturity schedule for the Real Estate Trust's outstanding debt at March 31,
2000 for the balance of fiscal 2000 and subsequent years is set forth in the

(1)  April 1,2000 - September 30,2000

Of the $257.5 million of mortgage debt outstanding at March 31,2000, $193.7
million was nonrecourse to the Real Estate Trust.

As the owner, directly and through two wholly-owned subsidiaries, of a limited
partnership interest in Saul Holdings Partnership, the Real Estate Trust shares
in cash distributions from operations and from capital transactions involving
the sale of properties. The partnership agreement of Saul Holdings Partnership
provides for quarterly cash distributions to the partners out of net cash flow.
During the six-month period ended March 31,2000, the Real Estate Trust received
total cash distributions of $3.3 million from Saul Holdings Partnership. During
the period April 1998 through July 1999, the Real Estate Trust reinvested its
quarterly distributions and obtained additional partnership units in Saul
Holdings Partnership. The majority of the Real Estate Trust's ownership interest
in Saul Holdings Partnership has been pledged as collateral with the Real Estate
Trust's lines of credit banks.

In April 2000, the Real Estate Trust completed the refinancing of one hotel and
four office/industrial properties. The new loans total $28.4 million, have a
15-year term, and require amortization based on a 20-year schedule. The new
loans replace floating rate loans and have fixed interest rates of 9.09% for the
hotel and 8.64% for the other properties. The Real Estate Trust received
approximately $8.9 million in new funds from the refinancing.

Development and Capital Expenditures. During the quarter ended June 30, 1998,
the Real Estate Trust commenced development of four new extended stay hotels:

      TownePlace Suites by Marriott containing 91 units located on 2 acre site
      owned by the Trust in Avenel Business Park in Gaithersburg, Maryland. This
      hotel opened for business on June 24,1999. TownePlace Suites by Marriott
      containing 91 units located on part of a 9 acre site owned by the Real
      Estate Trust in the Arvida Park of Commerce in Boca Raton, Florida. This
      hotel opened for business on June 28,1999.

      SpringHill Suites by Marriott containing 146 units located on part of a 9
      acre site owned by the Real Estate Trust in the Arvida Park of Commerce in
      Boca Raton, Florida. This hotel opened for business on July 9,1999.

      TownePlace Suites by Marriott containing 95 units located on
      a 3 acre site owned by the Real Estate Trust in Ft. Lauderdale
      Commerce Center, Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. This hotel opened
      for business on October 25,1999.

The costs for the four hotels aggregated $33 million and were largely funded
with the proceeds of a three year bank loan in the amount of $25.9 million. The
loan has two one-year renewal options.

During the quarter ended June 30, 1998, the Real Estate Trust also began
development of a 79,210 square foot single-story office/research and development
building located on a 7 acre site owned by the Real Estate Trust in Dulles North
Corporate Park, Sterling, Virginia. This project, known as Dulles North Building
Two, is adjacent to the Real Estate Trust's Dulles North office building and
near three of the Real Estate Trust's hotel properties. The development cost was
$7.3 million with bank financing of $6.5 million for a five-year term and a
two-year extension option. The project is 100% leased and became operational on
October 1, 1999.

During the quarter ended September 30, 1998, the Real Estate Trust began the
conversion of its two hotels located in Crystal City, Arlington, Virginia near
Reagan National Airport. The 308-room Crystal City Holiday Inn has been
converted into a Holiday Inn Crowne Plaza, while the 279-room Howard Johnsons
has been converted into a Holiday Inn. Both hotels began operations under their
new designations during October 1999. The new brands are expected to position
the hotels to generate higher room rates and revenues along with improved
occupancy levels consistent with the overall market. The renovations are largely
an acceleration of normal capital improvement work as well as some exterior and
interior signage, new marketing materials and a facade upgrade at the Howard
Johnson hotel. A restaurant, which had been operated by an unaffiliated company,
has also been renovated. The incremental costs for the two conversions has been
funded by the Real Estate Trust in part from its internal resources and in part
from its lines of credit.

During the quarter ended June 30, 1999, the Real Estate Trust commenced the
development of an 11-story 229-room hotel on a site adjacent to its Tyson Corner
Holiday Inn in McLean, Virginia. The new hotel will be franchised as a Courtyard
by Marriott and will cost approximately $30.0 million. Financing of $25.0
million has been obtained for an initial period of three years with options for
two one-year extensions. Opening is projected for December 2000.

Also during the quarter ended June 30, 1999, the Real Estate Trust began
development of an 80,391 square foot single-story office/research and
development building located on a 6.5 acre site owned by the Real Estate Trust
in Dulles North Corporate Park, Sterling, Virginia. The development cost of this
project, known as Dulles North Building Five, was $5.0 million, with financing
of $3.6 million for a three-year term. The project is 100% leased to a single
tenant and became operational on March 1, 2000.

On December 13, 1999, the Real Estate Trust purchased Tysons Park Place, an
office building owned by Chevy Chase Bank. The building is located in Tysons
Corner, McLean, Virginia and contains approximately 248,000 square feet of
leasable area, which was 99% leased as of December 31, 1999. The Bank occupies
approximately 45% of the building. The Real Estate Trust purchased the property
and an adjacent land parcel suitable for further development for $37.0 million.
The transaction was financed with the proceeds of a $32.0 million mortgage loan,
which has a 20-year term and a fixed interest rate of 8.21%.

On December 16, 1999, the Real Estate Trust purchased a 4.6 acre site located in
the Cascades Town Center in Sterling, Virginia for the purpose of constructing a
152 room Hampton Inn. The purchase price was $1,060,000 and the seller was Chevy
Chase Bank. Development costs for the hotel are projected to be $11.3 million.
The hotel will be financed with the proceeds of a $9.15 million mortgage loan,
which has a 3-year term, a floating interest rate and two one-year renewal
options. Opening is projected for November 2000.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2000, the Real Estate Trust began the
development of a 30,000 square foot office flex building located on a 2.2 acre
site in the Avenel Business Park in Gaithersburg, Maryland. The development cost
is projected to be $3.2 million, which the Real Estate Trust is financing with
its lines of credit. Completion is expected in the summer of 2000. The project
is 100% leased to a single tenant.

Also, during the quarter ended March 31, 2000, the Real Estate Trust began the
development of a 53,000 square foot office flex building located on a 3.8 acre
site in Dulles North Corporate Park near other Real Estate Trust projects. The
new building will be known as Dulles North Building Six. Development costs are
projected to be $6.1 million with bank financing of $5.2 million.
Completion is expected in the summer of 2000. The project is 100% leased.

The Real Estate Trust believes that the capital improvement costs for its
income-producing properties will be in the range of $8.0 to $10.0 million per
year for the next several years.

Year 2000 Statement - Pursuant to The Year 2000 Information and Readiness
Disclosure Act.

The Trust's relatively smooth transition into the Year 2000 indicates that
remediation efforts were largely successful. The Trust has nonetheless planned
for the possibility that Year 2000 failures may yet be discovered.

The Real Estate Trust believes that there is risk that its operations may be
affected by vendors and tenants who are unable to perform as contracted due to
their own Year 2000 exposure, but there is no known major direct exposure. The
Real Estate Trust's commercial leases contain provisions empowering it to take
certain actions to enforce its right to the timely payment of rent regardless of
the tenant's Year 2000 exposure. While it is not possible at this time to
determine the likely impact of these potential problems, the Real Estate Trust
has evaluated these areas and developed contingency plans as appropriate. The
Real Estate estimates that its incremental cost to meet Year 2000 compliance was
less than $250,000.

BANKING:

Liquidity. The required liquidity level under OTS regulations at March 31, 2000
was 4.0%. The Bank's average liquidity ratio for the quarter ended March 31,
2000 was 10.0%, compared to 14.7% for the quarter ended December 31, 1999.

The Bank did not securitize and sell any loan receivables during the current
quarter. At March 31, 2000, the Bank is considering the securitization and sale
of $275 million of outstanding automobile receivables. As part of its operating
strategy, the Bank continues to explore opportunities to sell assets and to
securitize and sell home equity, automobile and home loan receivables to meet
liquidity and other balance sheet objectives.

The Bank is obligated under various recourse provisions (primarily related to
credit losses) related to the securitization and sale of receivables. As a
result of these recourse provisions, the Bank maintained restricted cash
accounts and overcollateralization of receivables amounting to $51.7 million and
$11.9 million, respectively, at March 31, 2000, and $60.7 million and $11.1
million, respectively, at December 31, 1999, both of which are included in other
assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, the Bank owned
subordinated automobile receivables-backed securities with carrying values of
$5.0 million and $5.9 million at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999,
respectively, which were classified as trading securities in the Consolidated
Balance Sheets.

The Bank is also obligated under various recourse provisions related to the swap
of single family residential loans for mortgage-backed securities issued by the
Bank. At March 31, 2000, recourse to the Bank under these arrangements was $15.0
million, consisting of restricted cash accounts of $8.3 million and
overcollateralization of receivables of $6.7 million.

The Bank is also obligated under a recourse provision related to the servicing
of certain of its residential mortgage loans. At March 31, 2000 and December 31,
1999 recourse to the Bank under this arrangement totaled $2.0 million and $1.4
million, respectively.

There were no material commitments for capital expenditures at March 31, 2000.
During fiscal 1999, the Bank leased 3.5 acres of land at 7501 Wisconsin Avenue
in Bethesda, Maryland, on which the Bank is developing an office building to use
as its new corporate headquarters. The project is expected to be completed July
2001.

The Bank's liquidity requirements in fiscal 2000 and for years subsequent to
fiscal 2000 will continue to be affected both by the asset size of the Bank, the
growth of which will be constrained by capital requirements, and the composition
of the asset portfolio. Management believes that the Bank's primary sources of
funds will be sufficient to meet the Bank's foreseeable long-term liquidity
needs. The mix of funding sources utilized from time to time will be determined
by a number of factors, including capital planning objectives, lending and
investment strategies and market conditions.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31,2000 (the "2000 quarter") COMPARED TO
      THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 (the "1999 quarter")

REAL ESTATE

The Real Estate Trust recorded income before depreciation and amortization of
$2.3 million and an operating loss of $1.9 million in the 2000 quarter compared
to income before depreciation and amortization of $346,000 and an operating
loss of $2.6 million in the 1999 quarter. The decrease in the operating loss was
largely attributable to improved results from income-producing properties.

Income after direct operating expenses from hotel properties increased
$2,602,000 (44.2%) in the 2000 quarter over the level achieved in the 1999
quarter. $897,000 (15.2%) of this increase reflected improved results from the
twelve hotels owned throughout both quarters, and $1,705,000(29.0%)reflected
results from the non-comparable properties. The increase in total revenue of
$4,881,000(27.6%)exceeded the increase of $2,280,000(19.3%) in direct operating
expenses. For the twelve hotels owned throughout both periods, the increase in
total revenue was $1,995,000 (11.3%) and the increase in direct operating
expenses was $1,097,000(9.3%). The revenue increase was attributable to improved
market conditions, which permitted the Real Estate Trust to raise average room
rates at ten properties and average occupancy levels at six properties.

Income after direct operating expenses from office and industrial properties
increased $2,223,000(54.7%) in the 2000 quarter compared to such income in the
1999 quarter. $239,000(5.9%)of this increase reflected improved results from the
seven properties owned throughout both quarters and $1,984,000(48.8%)reflected
results from the non-comparable properties. The increase in total revenue of
$2,728,000(45.5%) exceeded the increase of $504,000(26.2%)in direct
operating expenses. For the seven properties owned throughout both periods, the
increase in total revenue was $291,000(4.9%) and the increase in direct
operating expenses was $52,000(2.7%).

Other income increased $116,000(14.2%) during the 2000 quarter due to higher
interest income.

Land parcels and other expense increased $472,000(334.1%) during the 2000
quarter. Last year's number reflected a multi-year tax refund at one property.

Interest expense increased $1,688,000(17.0%)in the 2000 quarter, primarily
because of higher mortgage interest and higher interest on bank lines of credit.
The average balance of the Real Estate Trust's outstanding borrowings increased
to $520.4 million for the 2000 quarter from $440.5 million for the 1999 quarter.
The increase in average borrowings was the result of mortgage loan refinancings
and lines of credit borrowings. The weighted average cost of borrowings was
9.20% in the 2000 quarter compared to 9.30% in the 1999 quarter.

Capitalized interest increased $88,000(57.1%) during the 2000 quarter due to the
higher level of development activity in the current period.

Amortization of debt expense increased $96,000(145.5%) in the 2000 quarter,
primarily due to costs experienced in adding new debt.
<PAGE>
Depreciation increased $1,139,000(39.2%) in the 2000 quarter as a result of the
addition of seven new properties and new assets placed in service at existing
properties.

Advisory, management and leasing fees paid to related parties increased $472,000
(21.0%) in the 2000 quarter from the 1999 quarter. The monthly advisory fee in
the 2000 quarter was $349,000 compared to $337,000 in the 1999 quarter, which
resulted in an aggregate increase of $35,000. Management fees increased
$437,000(35.4%) in the current quarter, reflecting both higher hotel sales and
office rents on which the fees are based.

General and administrative expense increased $672,000 in the 2000 quarter,
principally as a result of higher legal expense and the writeoff of abandoned
development expenses.

Equity on earnings of unconsolidated entities reflected earnings of $1,875,000
in the 2000 quarter, an increase of $249,000 (15.3%) over the amount recorded in
the 1999 quarter. The improvement was due to increased period-to-period earnings
of Saul Centers, Inc.

BANKING:

Overview. The Bank recorded operating income of $13.4 million for the 2000
quarter, compared to operating income of $49.7 million for the 1999 quarter. The
decrease in income for the quarter was primarily attributable to a $37.4 million
decrease in other (non-interest) income resulting from the inclusion in last
year's results of a $31.6 million gain from the sale of one of the Bank's REO
properties. Operating (non-interest) expense also increased by $12.5 million. In
addition, increases in interest expense of $34.6 million and provision for loan
and lease losses of $6.2 million contributed to the reduced income in the 2000
quarter. Partially offsetting the reduction of income was an increase in
interest income of $54.3 million.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income, before the provision for loan and
lease losses, increased $19.7 million (or 29.7%) in the 2000 quarter compared to
the 1999 quarter. Included in interest income during the 2000 quarter was $0.1
million recorded on non-accrual assets and restructured loans. The Bank would
have recorded additional interest income of $0.8 million for the 2000 quarter if
non-accrual assets and restructured loans had been current in accordance with
their original terms. The Bank's net interest income in future periods will
continue to be adversely affected by the Bank's non-performing assets. See
"Financial Condition - Asset Quality - Non-Performing Assets."

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, information regarding
the total amount of income from interest-earning assets and the resulting
yields, the interest expense associated with interest-bearing liabilities,
expressed in dollars and rates, and the net interest spread and net yield on
interest-earning assets.

<PAGE>
Interest income in the 2000 quarter increased $54.3 million (or 43.8%) from the
level in the 1999 quarter as a result of higher average balances and slightly
higher average yields on loans and leases receivable.

The Bank's net interest spread decreased to 3.67% in the 2000 quarter from 3.91%
in the 1999 quarter. The decrease in the net interest spread primarily reflected
an increase in the cost of deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank advances.
Partially offsetting the increase in deposit and borrowings cost was a slight
increase in the yield on loans and mortgage-backed securities. Average
interest-earning assets as a percentage of average interest bearing liabilities
increased slightly to 104.23% for the 2000 quarter compared to 103.70% for the
1999 quarter.

Interest income on loans, the largest category of interest-earning assets,
increased by $57.8 million from the 1999 quarter primarily because of higher
average balances. Higher average balances of the Bank's single-family
residential loans, which increased $1.2 billion (or 37.3%), resulted in a $20.8
million (or 37.2%) increase in interest income from such loans. Average balances
of automobile loans, commercial loans and real estate construction loans
increased $1.2 billion, $226.6 million and $94.5 million, respectively, and
contributed to a $28.5 million, $4.8 million and $2.5 million increase in
interest income from such loans, respectively. Lower average yields on
automobile loans partially offset the effects of the higher average balances.

The average yield on the loan portfolio in the 2000 quarter increased 2 basis
points (from 8.34% to 8.36%) from the average yield in the 1999 quarter.
Contributing to the slightly higher net yield was an increase in the average
yield on home equity loans (from 7.28% to 8.60%), residential construction loans
(from 8.21% to 9.11%) and commercial loans (from 7.13% to 7.77%). Partially
offsetting the increase was a decrease in the yield on automobile loans which
resulted from management's decision to shift from higher yielding subprime loans
which have higher risks of default to lower yielding prime automobile loans and
leases with relatively lower risk of default. Average subprime automobile loans
as a percentage of total automobile loans and leases declined to 29.8% during
the 2000 quarter from 49.7% during the 1999 quarter. Also offsetting the
increased average yield on the loan portfolio was a decrease in the average
yield on home improvement loans (from 9.62% to 8.55%).

Interest income on mortgage-backed securities decreased $5.9 million (or 23.9%)
primarily because of lower average balances. The effect of the $478.0 million
decrease in average balances was partially offset by an increase in the average
interest rates on those securities from 5.84% to 6.19%.

Interest expense on deposits increased $16.4 million (or 47.0%) during the 2000
quarter due to increased average rates and average balances. The 54 basis point
increase in the average rate on deposits (from 2.97% to 3.51%) resulted from a
shift in the deposit mix towards higher cost certificates of deposits. During
fiscal year 1999, the Bank began using brokered deposits as an alternative
funding source.

Interest expense on borrowings increased $18.2 million (or 80.1%) in the 2000
quarter over the 1999 quarter. A $1.1 billion (or 138.3%) increase in average
balances on Federal Home Loan Bank advances and, to a lesser extent, an increase
in the average rate on such borrowings (from 5.08% to 5.63%) resulted in an
increase of $17.0 million in interest expense from such borrowings.
<PAGE>
Provision for Loan and Lease Losses. The Bank's provision for loan and lease
losses increased to $12.8 million in the 2000 quarter from $6.6 million in the
1999 quarter. The $6.2 million increase was primarily due to increased
charge-offs as a result of the aging of the Bank's loan portfolio following last
year's growth. See "Financial Condition - Asset Quality - Allowances for
Losses."

Other Income. Other non-interest income decreased to $30.5 million in the 2000
quarter from $67.9 million in the 1999 quarter. The $37.4 million (or 55.1%)
decrease was primarily attributable to a gain of $31.6 million included in the
1999 quarter resulting from the sale of one of the Bank's REO properties in the
pre-development stage. Partially offsetting this decrease was an increase in
deposit service fees.

Deposit servicing fees increased $3.7 million (or 23.3%) during the 2000 quarter
primarily due to fees generated from the continued expansion of the Bank's
branch and ATM network.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the 2000 quarter increased $12.5
million (or 16.0%) from the level in the 1999 quarter. Salaries and employee
benefits increased $6.7 million (or 15.7%) as a result of additions of staff to
the Bank's consumer lending department and branch operations. Also contributing
to increased operating expenses for the 2000 quarter was an increase in other
operating expenses of $4.0 million (or 44.5%). The 1999 quarter included a
reduction to other operating expenses related to services the Bank provided to
First USA following the sale of the credit card portfolio on September 30, 1998.
Partially offsetting the increase in operating expenses was a decrease in loan
expenses as a result of a $2.8 million recovery of prior valuation adjustments
recorded against the Bank's mortgage servicing assets.

REAL ESTATE

The Real Estate Trust recorded income before depreciation and amortization of
$1.9 million and an operating loss of $5.9 million in the 2000 period compared
to a loss before depreciation and amortization of $212,000 and an operating loss
of $6.2 million in the 1999 period. The decrease in the operating loss was
largely attributable to improved results from income-producing properties.

Income after direct operating expenses from hotels increased $3,268,000 (26.5%)
in the 2000 period over the level achieved in the 1999 period. $836,000(6.8%) of
this increase reflected improved results from twelve hotels owned throughout
both periods and $2,432,000(19.7%) reflected results from the non-comparable
properties. The increase in total revenue of $7,540,000(21.1%) exceeded the
increase of $4,272,000(18.2%) in direct operating expenses. For the twelve
hotels owned throughout both periods, the increase in total revenue was
$3,012,000(8.4%)and the increase in direct operating expenses was
$2,176,000(9.3%). The revenue increase was attributable to improved market
conditions which permitted the Real Estate Trust to raise average room rates at
ten properties and average occupancy levels at six properties.

Income after direct operating expenses from office and industrial properties
increased $3,183,000(39.1%) in the 2000 period compared to such income in the
1999 period. $551,000(6.8%) of this increase reflected improved results from the
seven properties owned throughout both periods and $2,632,000(32.3%) reflected
results from the non-comparable properties. The increase in total revenue of
$3,810,000(31.9%) exceeded the increase of $627,000(16.5%) in direct operating
expenses. For the seven properties owned throughout both periods, the increase
in total revenue was $635,000(5.3%) and the increase in direct operating
expenses was $84,000(2.2%).

Other income increased $119,000(7.9%) during the 2000 period due to higher
interest income.

Land parcels and other expense increased $387,000 (157.0%) during the 2000
period. Last year's number reflected a multi-year tax refund at one property.

Interest expense increased $2,430,000(12.1%) in the 2000 period, primarily
because of higher mortgage interest and higher interest on bank lines of credit
borrowings. Average balances of the Real Estate Trust's outstanding borrowings
increased to $499.9 million for the 2000 period from $444.0 million for the 1999
period. The increase in average borrowings occurred as a result of mortgage loan
refinancings and lines of credit borrowings. The weighted average cost of
borrowings was 9.27% in the 2000 period compared to 9.29% in the 1999 period.

Capitalized interest increased $92,000(24.5%) during the 2000 period due to the
higher level of development activity in the current period.

Amortization of debt expense increased $154,000(93.9%) in the 2000 period,
primarily due to costs experienced in adding new debt.

Depreciation increased $1,717,000(29.7%) in the 2000 period as a result of the
additions of new properties and new assets placed in service at existing
properties.
<PAGE>
Advisory, management and leasing fees paid to related parties increased $689,000
(15.3%) in the 2000 period from the 1999 period. The monthly advisory fee in the
2000 period was $349,000 compared to $337,000 in the prior period, which
resulted in an aggregate increase of $71,000. Management and leasing fees
increased $618,000(24.9%) in the current period, reflecting both higher hotel
sales and office rents on which fees are based.

General and administrative expense increased $2,280,000(468.2%)in the 2000
period, principally as a result of a $1.2 million payment to terminate the
Howard Johnson franchise at one hotel, start-up expenses for new hotels, higher
legal costs and the writeoff of abandoned development expenses.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities reflected earnings of $3,978,000
for the 2000 period and earnings of $2,773,000 for the 1999 period, an increase
of $1,205,000(43.5%). The improvement was due to increased period-to-period
earnings of Saul Centers, Inc.

BANKING:

Overview. The Bank recorded operating income of $30.1 million for the 2000
period, compared to operating income of $57.0 million for the 1999 period. The
decrease in income for the period was primarily attributable to a $34.5 million
decrease in other (non-interest) income resulting from the inclusion in last
year's results of a $31.6 million gain from the sale of one of the Bank's REO
properties. Operating (non-interest) expense also increased by $21.6 million. In
addition, an increase in provision for loan and lease losses of $13.4 million
contributed to the reduced income in the 2000 quarter. Partially offsetting the
reduction of income was an increase in net interest income of $42.5 million.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income, before the provision for loan and
lease losses, increased $42.5 million (or 34.0%) in the 2000 period compared to
the 1999 period. Included in interest income during the 2000 period was $0.2
million recorded on non-accrual assets and restructured loans. The Bank would
have recorded additional interest income of $1.5 million for the 2000 period if
non-accrual assets and restructured loans had been current in accordance with
their original terms. The Bank's net interest income in future periods will
continue to be adversely affected by the Bank's non-performing assets. See
"Financial Condition - Asset Quality - Non-Performing Assets."

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, information regarding
the total amount of income from interest-earning assets and the resulting
yields, the interest expense associated with interest-bearing liabilities,
expressed in dollars and rates, and the net interest spread and net yield on
interest-earning assets.

Interest income in the 2000 period increased $112.4 million (or 47.9%) from the
level in the 1999 period as a result of higher average balances of loans and
leases receivable, which was partially offset by lower average yields on loans
and leases receivable.

The Bank's net interest spread decreased to 3.67% in the 2000 period from 3.89%
in the 1999 period. The 22 basis point reduction in the net interest spread
primarily reflected the decline in the yield on loans resulting from lower
yields in consumer loans. Partially offsetting this decline was an increase in
the average balances of earning assets, which was funded primarily with higher
cost Federal Home Loan Bank advances and brokered deposits. Average
interest-earning assets as a percentage of average interest bearing liabilities
decreased to 103.72% for the 2000 period compared to 104.11% for the 1999
period.

Interest income on loans, the largest category of interest-earning assets,
increased by $121.4 million from the 1999 period primarily because of higher
average balances. Higher average balances of the Bank's single-family
residential loans, which increased $1.5 billion (or 53.0%), resulted in a $51.5
million (or 52.0%) increase in interest income from such loans. Slightly lower
average yields on single-family residential loans partially offset the effects
of the higher average balances. Average balances of automobile loans, commercial
loans and real estate construction loans increased $1.1 billion, $220.6 million
and $109.1 million, respectively, and contributed to a $53.3 million, $8.7
million and $5.1 million increase in interest income from such loans,
respectively. Lower average yields on automobile loans partially offset the
effects of the higher average balances.

The average yield on the loan portfolio in the 2000 period decreased 14 basis
points (from 8.51% to 8.37%) from the average yield in the 1999 period.
Contributing to the lower net yield was a decrease in the yield on automobile
loans which resulted from management's decision to shift from higher yielding
subprime loans which have higher risks of default to lower yielding prime
automobile loans and leases with relatively lower risk of default. Average
subprime automobile loans as a percentage of total automobile loans and leases
declined to 31.9% during the 2000 period from 54.1% during the 1999 period. Also
contributing to the decreased average yield on the loan portfolio was a decrease
in the average yield on home improvement loans (from 9.97% to 8.89%). An
increase in the average yield on home equity loans (from 7.14% to 8.40%)
resulting from increases in the index on which the interest rates on such loans
are based slightly offset the decreases in the average yield on the loan
portfolio.

Interest income on mortgage-backed securities decreased $14.8 million (or 27.6%)
primarily because of lower average balances. The effect of the $558.1 million
decrease in average balances was partially offset by an increase in the average
interest rates on those securities from 5.92% to 6.19%.

Interest expense on deposits increased $24.9 million (or 34.6%) during the 2000
period due to increased average rates and average balances. The 33 basis point
increase in the average rate on deposits (from 3.09% to 3.42%) resulted from a
shift in the deposit mix towards higher cost certificates of deposits. During
fiscal year 1999, the Bank began using brokered deposits as an alternative
funding source.
<PAGE>
Interest expense on borrowings increased $44.9 million (or 119.5%) in the 2000
period over the 1999 period. A $1.3 billion (or 222.3%) increase in average
balances on Federal Home Loan Bank advances and, to a lesser extent, the
increase in the average rate on such borrowings (from 5.19% to 5.62%) resulted
in an increase of $38.8 million in interest expense. Also contributing to the
increase in interest expense on borrowings was an increase in the average
balance of $142.0 million and average yield (from 4.87% to 5.64%) in securities
sold under repurchase agreements.

Provision for Loan and Lease Losses. The Bank's provision for loan and lease
losses increased to $23.8 million in the 2000 period from $10.4 million in the
1999 period. The $13.4 million increase was primarily due to increased
charge-offs as a result of the aging of the Bank's loan portfolio following last
year's growth. See "Financial Condition - Asset Quality - Allowances for
Losses."

Other Income. Other non-interest income decreased to $62.7 million in the 2000
period from $97.2 million in the 1999 period. The $34.5 million (or 35.5%)
decrease was primarily attributable to a gain of $31.6 million included in the
1999 period resulting from the sale of one of the Bank's REO properties in the
pre-development stage. Partially offsetting this decrease was an increase in
deposit service fees.

Deposit servicing fees increased $8.7 million (or 27.4%) during the 2000 period
primarily due to fees generated from the continued expansion of the Bank's
branch and ATM network.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the 2000 period increased $21.6
million (or 13.9%) from the level in the 1999 period. Salaries and employee
benefits increased $12.8 million (or 15.4%) as a result of additions of staff to
the Bank's consumer lending department and branch operations. Also contributing
to increased operating expenses for the 2000 period was an increase in other
operating expenses of $7.6 million (or 41.7%). The 1999 period included a
reduction to other operating expenses related to services the Bank provided to
First USA following the sale of the credit card portfolio on September 30, 1998.
Partially offsetting the increase in operating expenses was a decrease in loan
expenses as a result of a $6.3 million recovery of prior valuation adjustments
recorded against the Bank's mortgage servicing assets.
