NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The information contained in this interim report is
unaudited and subject to year-end adjustment and audit. However,
in the opinion of management, the information reflects all
adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial condition
and results of operations for the latest period. All such
adjustments were of a normal, recurring nature. All material
intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
2. These statements should be read in conjunction with notes to
the financial statements contained in the 1998 Annual Report to
Stockholders.
3. Management considers the allowance for loan losses (reserve)
to be adequate at this time.
4. All per share computations include the retroactive effect of
stock dividends. This includes the 5% stock dividend declared by
the Board of Directors on April 8, 1999, payable on May 14, 1999
to stockholders of record on April 26, 1999. The basic weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding used was
approximately 2,514,179 and 2,531,861 for the three month period
ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and 2,519,960 and
2,549,823 for the six month period ended June 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively.
5. No shares of common stock are reserved for issuance in the
event of conversions or the exercise of warrants, options or
other rights, except as follows:
- - 131,071 shares which are reserved for issuance under

Financial Accounting Standards Statement No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income." Statement No. 130 establishes new rules
or the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its
components; however, the adoption of this Statement had no impact
on the Company's net income or stockholder's equity. Statement
No. 130 requires unrealized gains or losses on available for sale
securities, to be included in other comprehensive income. Total
comprehensive income was $314,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
1999 compared to $693,000 for the same period of 1998. For the
six months ended June 30, 1999 total comprehensive income was

issued Statement No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." This statement establishes
standards fr the way that public business enterprises report
information about operating segments in annual and interim
financial statements. The Corporation has only one operating
segment which comprises the Bank's banking and fiduciary
activities.
8. The results of operations for the six month period ended
June 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year.
9. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1998
consolidated financial statements to conform with the 1999
presentation.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is management's discussion and analysis of the
significant changes in the results of operations, capital
resources, and liquidity presented in its accompanying
consolidated financial statements for Union National Financial
Corporation, a bank holding company (Union National), and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Union National Community Bank (the
Bank). Union National's consolidated financial condition and
results of operations consist almost entirely of the Bank's
financial condition and results of operations. This discussion
should be read in conjunction with the 1998 Annual Report.
Current performance does not guarantee or indicate similar
performance in the future.
We have made forward-looking statements in this document, and in
documents that we incorporate by reference, that are subject to
risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include
information concerning possible or assumed future results of
operations of Union National Financial Corporation, Union
National Community Bank, or the combined company. When we use
words such as "believes," "expects," "anticipates," or similar
expressions, we are making forward-looking statements.
Shareholders should note that many factors, some of which are
discussed elsewhere in this document and in the documents that we
incorporate by reference, could affect the future financial
results of Union National Financial Corporation, Union National
Community Bank, or the combined company and could cause those
results to differ materially from those expressed in our forward-
looking statements contained or incorporated by reference in this
document. These factors include the following:
- - operating, legal, and regulatory risks;
- - economic, political, and competitive forces affecting our
banking, securities, asset management, and credit services
businesses; and
- - the risk that our analyses of these risks and forces could be
incorrect and/or that the strategies developed to address them
could be unsuccessful.
Results of Operations
_____________________
Overview
Consolidated net income for the six months ended June 30, 1999
was $1,549,000, an increase of 16.5%, as compared to the
consolidated net income of $1,330,000 for the same period of
1998.
Consolidated net income for the three months ended June 30, 1999
was $791,000, an increase of 16.8%, as compared to the
consolidated net income of $677,000 for the same period of 1998.
On a per share basis, net income for the six months ended June
30, 1999 was $.61, an increase of 17.3%, as compared to $.52 for
the same period in 1998. On a per share basis, net income for
the three months ended June 30, 1999 was $.31, an increase of
14.8%, as compared to $.27 for the same period in 1998. Per
share information reflects the 5% stock dividend declared by
Union National's Board of Directors on April 8, 1999, payable on
May 14, 1999 to stockholders of record on April 26, 1999.
Results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1999 as
compared to the same period in 1998 were impacted by the
following items:
- - Net income increased due to growth of 5.2% in average net
loans and growth of 24.3% in average investment
securities, which was funded primarily by growth in
average deposits.
- - Net income increased due to a 24.2% increase in other
operating income.
- - Net income increased due to a slight widening of the
spread between the earnings rates on loans and investments
as compared to the interest rates paid on deposits and
long-term debt.
- - Net income increased due to a decrease in the provision
for loan losses.
- - Net income decreased due to a 16.5% increase in other
operating expenses.
<PAGE>
The above items are quantified and discussed in further detail
under their respective sections below.
Net income as a percent of total average assets, also known as
return on average assets (ROA), was 1.19% on an annualized basis
for the six months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to 1.13% for
the same period in 1998. Net income as a percent of average
stockholders' equity, also known as return on average equity
(ROE), was 13.2% on an annualized basis for the six months ended
June 30, 1999, as compared to 11.7% for the same period in 1998.
ROE was positively impacted by the repurchase of 32,301 shares of
outstanding common stock since the beginning of 1999. See the
discussion under the section on Stockholder's Equity for further
details.
Management currently expects a moderation in the growth of
deposits for the remainder of 1999 as compared to historic growth
rates of deposits. This is due to the Bank's ability to lower
its cost of funds rate on deposits since growth in deposits has
recently outpaced the Bank's funding needs for loan growth. As a
result the rate paid on average interest-bearing deposits has
decreased from 4.23% at June 30, 1998 to 3.83% at June 30, 1999.
However, Management has taken specific actions to enhance the
Bank's competitive position for loans, deposits, and other
financial services in northwestern Lancaster County, Pennsylvania
(the Bank's Market Area). These actions include renewed emphasis
on business development and on sales training for staff, further
development of the Bank's cash management program for commercial
customers, and the strategic promotion of the Bank's retail
offices in light of continued consolidation of financial
institutions in the Bank's Market Area. The funding for loan
growth is further discussed under the section on Liquidity.
Management also currently expects a moderation in loan growth for
the remainder of 1999 as compared to historic growth rates.
However, the following items are currently expected to enhance
loan growth during the remainder of 1999:
- - lending rates are at generally affordable rates for
prospective borrowers;
- - renewed emphasis on business development and sales
training for staff;
- - further product development and promotion of the Bank's
consumer and home equity lines of credit;
- - economic stability of the Bank's Market Area as
discussed later in this section; and
- - continued population growth and business development in
the Bank's Market Area.
It is anticipated that economic activity in the Bank's Market
Area during the remainder of 1999 appears favorable due to the
availability of generally low lending rates and continued
construction activity. The overall effects of current and past
economic conditions, as well as other factors, can be seen by a
mild lessening of certain borrowers' financial strength.
Management is monitoring these general and specific trends
closely. Their various effects are discussed later under the
section on Loans.
Net Interest Income
For analytical and discussion purposes, net interest income and
corresponding yields are presented on a taxable equivalent basis.
Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 1999
increased by $608,000 or 12.5%, over the same period in 1998.
Commercial, residential, and consumer average loan growth of
$8,120,000 and average investment security growth of $15,152,000
was funded primarily by the growth in average deposits of
$21,760,000. Average earning assets increased in the amount of
$24,105,000 in the aggregate over the same period in 1998. The
volume growth in earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities
increased net interest income by the amount of $540,000.
The overall interest rate on the average total earning assets
decreased to 7.90% for the current period, as compared to 8.17%
for the same period of last year. This was due to overall
declines in market interest rates and due to the refinancing of
higher interest rate loans to lower interest rates. The overall
interest rate on the average interest-bearing liabilities
decreased to 4.05% for the current period, as
<PAGE>
compared to 4.45% for the same period of last year. This is due
to decreases in rates paid on core deposits and the repricing of
adjustable-rate advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of
Pittsburgh (FHLB) to lower current market rates. The net effect
of all interest rate fluctuations and funding changes was to
increase net interest income in the amount of $68,000 for the
current period over the same period in 1998. See Management's
discussion below concerning the anticipated impact of these
interest rate fluctuations on the results of operations for the
remainder of 1999.
As referenced above, in order to enhance the net interest income
in future periods, Management has entered into transactions that
increase earning assets funded by advances from the FHLB. The
terms and amounts of the transactions, when combined with the
Bank's overall balance sheet structure, maintain the Bank within
its interest rate risk policies. As of June 30, 1999, the Bank
has received long-term advances of $30,535,000 from its available
credit of $81,390,000 at the FHLB for purposes of funding loan
demand and mortgage-backed security purchases. The total
advances have a current average effective rate of 5.41% with
maturities ranging from June 2000 to September 2008.
Commencing October 1998, the Federal Reserve Bank began loosening
the monetary supply causing the prime interest rate to decrease
from 8.50% to 7.75%. The immediate impact of these short-term
interest rate decreases was to decrease interest rates on loans
and deposits that adjust according to short-term rate indexes and
to decrease reinvestment rates on investment securities and
renewing certificates of deposit. However, in June 1999, the
Federal Reserve Bank opted to begin to tighten the monetary
supply and the prime interest rate increased from 7.75% to 8.00%.
This still reflects an overall decline in interest rates from the
first six months of 1998. As a result of this and Management's
efforts to manage the net interest margin, it is currently
expected that for the remainder of 1999, the Bank's net interest
margin will remain stable in comparison to the current net
interest margin and will widen slightly in comparison to the same
period of 1998. In addition, the growth in the earning assets
during 1998 and the first six months of 1999 is currently
expected to increase the net interest margin for the remaining
months of 1999 over the same period of 1998. Although the
effective interest rate impact of expected cash flows on
investments and of renewing certificates of deposit can be
reasonably estimated at current interest rate levels, the yield
curve during the remainder of 1999, the options selected by
customers, and the future mix of the loan, investment and deposit
products in the Bank's portfolios may significantly change the
estimates used in the simulation models. Based on the Bank's
current model and estimates as of June 30, 1999, the factors
discussed above will have a net positive impact to the net
interest margin for the remaining months of 1999, as compared to
the same period in 1998. See discussions on Liquidity and Market
Risk - Interest Rate Risk.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses was $99,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1999 and $229,000 for the six months ended June
30, 1998. Net charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 1999
were $56,000 as compared to $113,000 for the same period of last
year. The decrease in the provision over the same period of last
year is primarily a result of the decrease in net charge-offs and
$6,846,000 less loan growth in the first six months of 1999 as
compared to the same period of the prior year. Future
adjustments to the allowance, and consequently, the provision for
loan losses, may be necessary if economic conditions or loan
credit quality differ substantially from the assumptions used in
making Management's evaluation of the level of the allowance for
loan losses as compared to the balance of outstanding loans.
Other Operating Income
Other operating income for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was
$687,000, representing an increase of $134,000, or 24.2%, over
the same period in 1998. Contributing to this increase were the
following items:
<PAGE>
- - increased mutual fund sales and resulting commissions of
$25,000 from the Bank's continued relationship with T.H.E.
Financial Group, Ltd.;
- - additional earnings in insufficient funds charges in the
amount of $36,000, which were primarily a result of an
increase in the Bank's per item insufficient funds charge
effective in June 1998;
- - additional earnings in monthly service charges in the amount
of $13,000, which were primarily a result of increases in
monthly service charges on noninterest bearing accounts
effective May 1, 1999;
- - additional earnings from check sales in the amount of $14,000;
- - additional earnings on commissions from the sale of loan
insurance in the amount of $20,000, which was primarily a
result of an increase in the Bank's commission rates; and
- - increased usage of the Bank's debit cards resulting in
additional earnings in interchange fee income in the amount of
$21,000.
The Bank also currently assesses a surcharge at its ATMs;
however, ATM surcharges, or the elimination thereof, may be
subject to future legislation.
Other Operating Expenses
The aggregate of noninterest expenses for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 increased by $533,000, or 16.5%, over the same
period in 1998. This noninterest expense increase is discussed
below as it pertains to the various expense categories.
Employee salaries and wages increased by $304,000, or 20.7%, over
the same period in 1998. This increase was essentially due to
annual merit and cost of living increases, planned staff
additions, and an accrual for an incentive compensation plan
which is based on the Bank's 1999 financial performance. New
staff positions include a senior vice president to lead retail
and commercial banking, a senior vice president to lead sales and
marketing efforts, a community banking group manager, an
accounting officer, a full-time business development officer, a
quality service manager, and additional staff for our new
telephone banking center, for the credit services division, and
for retail banking, training, and support. The majority of these
staff positions were added during the third and fourth quarters
of 1998. Staff changes from 1998 to 1999, including the above
staff additions and retirements and early retirement payments in
1998, are currently expected to reduce results of operations by
an immaterial amount for the remainder of 1999 as compared to the
same period of last year.
Related fringe benefits increased by $97,000, or 31.2%, from the
same period in 1998. The increased expense is primarily a result
of increased employee benefit costs as a result of staff
additions. Benefit costs were also increased by $27,000 as a
result of the implementation of the Union National Community Bank
401(k) Profit Sharing Plan which replaced the previous profit
sharing plan. This plan was effective January 1, 1999 and allows
employees to contribute a portion of their salaries and wages to
the plan. The Bank may elect to make a discretionary
contribution to the plan and may also match a portion of employee
elected salary deferrals, subject to a 6% maximum of their
salaries and wages. For 1999, the Bank has elected to match 50%
of employee elected salary deferrals which do not exceed 6% of
their salaries and wages. The Bank currently expects its total
1999 contribution to the new 401(k) profit-sharing plan to reduce
results of operations by approximately $24,000, net of income
taxes, for the remainder of 1999 compared to the same period of
last year.
Other operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1999,
increased by $126,000, or 13.2%, over the same period in 1998.
Contributing factors to the increase in other operating expenses
as compared to the same period in 1998 included the following:
- - an increase in advertising expenses in the amount of $54,000
as a result of expenditures for the development and promotion
of the Bank's new logo and expenditures for various sales
campaigns;
- - an increase in supplies expense of $24,000;
- - an increase in MAC fees of $19,000 due to higher transaction
volumes; and
- - an increase in costs related to Y2K preparations in the amount
of $9,000.
<PAGE>
The above items were partially offset by a decrease in legal and
professional fees which resulted from a decrease in expenditures
in 1999 for legal fees related to loan matters and a decrease in
expenditures for consulting fees.
Income Taxes
Union National's income tax expense increased by $53,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1999 to $400,000 from $347,000 for the
same period in 1998. The effective tax rate was 20.5% for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 and 20.7% for the six months ended
June 30, 1998. The increase in income tax expense was due to the
increase in corporate earnings before income taxes. Currently,
the effective tax rate of Union National for the remaining months
of 1999 is expected to approximate the effective tax rate in
1998.
Year 2000 Issues
________________
The following section contains forward-looking statements which
involve risks and uncertainties. The actual impact on Union
National of the Year 2000 issue could materially differ from that
which is anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a
result of certain factors identified below.
The "Year 2000 Problem" (Y2K) arose because many existing
computer programs use only the last two digits to refer to a
year. Therefore, these computer programs do not properly
recognize a year that begins with "20" instead of the familiar
"19". If not corrected, many computer applications could fail or
create erroneous results by or at the year 2000. This could
cause entire system failures, miscalculations, and disruptions of
normal business operations including, among other things, a
temporary inability to process transactions, generate statements,
or engage in similar day to day business activities. The extent
of the potential impact of the Year 2000 Problem is not yet
known, and if not timely corrected, it could affect the global
economy.
The Bank is subject to the regulation and oversight of various
banking regulators, whose oversight includes the provision of
specific timetables, programs, and guidance regarding Year 2000
issues. Regulatory examinations of the Bank's Year 2000 programs
are conducted on a quarterly basis and reports are regularly
provided to Union National's Board of Directors.
Corporation's State of Readiness
Union National Financial Corporation is committed to ensuring
that daily operations suffer little or no impact from the century
date change. Union National has applied due diligence throughout
the Y2K process, following the guidelines contained in the series
of Federal Financial Institutions Examinations Council's
Interagency Guidelines and the Securities and Exchange
Commission's Release No. 33-7558. The guidelines identify the
following phases: awareness, assessment, renovation or
remediation, testing or validation, and implementation.
Based on an ongoing assessment, Union National has determined
that it will be required to modify or replace portions of its
software so that its computer systems will properly use dates
beyond December 31, 1999. Union National presently believes that
implementing modifications to existing software and hardware, the
Year 2000 Problem can be mitigated. However, if such
modifications are not made, or are not completed on a timely
basis, the Year 2000 Problem could have a material adverse impact
on the operations of Union National.
Management has initiated an enterprise-wide program to prepare
Union National's computer systems and applications for the Year
2000. Union National has developed a comprehensive inventory of
all mainframe and PC based applications, third-party
relationships, environmental systems, proprietary programs, and
non-computer related systems (such as postage meters and fax
machines). This assessment identified eleven mission-critical or
related systems which could have a significant impact on Union
National due to the effect of the century date change. As of
March 31, 1999, Union
<PAGE>
National has remedied all eleven of its identified mission-critical and related
systems.
The Bank has communicated with and completed its Year 2000 credit
risk assessment of its material customers. Material customers
include significant commercial borrowers that could pose a credit
risk to the Bank and significant commercial depositors that could
pose a liquidity risk to the Bank, if they are not Year 2000
compliant and their businesses are disrupted. In addition,
follow-up communication will be scheduled during the third
quarter of 1999 for certain material customers according to the
Bank's initial risk assessment.
Union National has initiated communications with all of its
significant vendors, suppliers, and business partners to assure
continuation of service by determining the extent to which Union
National is vulnerable to those third-parties' failure to remedy
their own Year 2000 Problems. These include external suppliers,
such as wire transfer systems, telephone systems, electric
companies, and other utility companies. These vendors' Year 2000
readiness responses are being assessed as to their Year 2000
compliance status. In the event that any of Union National's
significant vendors, suppliers and business partners do not
successfully achieve Year 2000 compliance in a timely manner,
Union National's business or operations could be adversely
affected. Currently, these significant entities are indicating
that they are on schedule to be Year 2000 ready. If significant
entities fail to meet Year 2000 operating requirements, Union
National intends to engage alternative suppliers or systems.
Nevertheless, Union National does not believe that the cost of
addressing the Year 2000 issues will be a material event or
uncertainty that would cause reported financial information not
to be necessarily indicative of future operating results or
financial condition. Union National does not believe that the
costs or the consequences of incomplete or untimely resolution of
its Year 2000 issues represent a known material event or
uncertainty that is reasonably likely to affect its future
financial results, or cause its reported financial information
not to be necessarily indicative of future operating results or
future financial condition.
Costs of Year 2000
Union National is utilizing both internal and external resources
to correct or modify and test its systems for Year 2000
compliance. For the remaining months of 1999, Union National is
currently expecting direct incremental costs related to the Year
2000 problem to reduce results of operations by $20,000, net of
income taxes. This cost estimate reflects only an immaterial
increase over Year 2000 related costs incurred in the second half
of 1998. The estimated Year 2000 project costs include the costs
associated with the impact of third-parties' Year 2000 issues,
and are based on presently available information. In addition to
these direct incremental costs, Union National has and will
continue to utilize significant internal labor resources in its
Year 2000 related activities including systems, audit, and
administrative staff. The total cost of the project is being
funded through operating cash flows. Union National does not
expect the amounts required to be expensed in 1999 to have a
material effect on the financial position or results of
operations. However, if compliance is not achieved in a timely
manner by Union National's significant third-parties, be it
suppliers of services or customers, the Y2K issue could possibly
have a material adverse effect on Union National's operations and
financial position.
Risks of Year 2000
At present, Management believes its progress in remedying Union
National's systems, programs, and applications and installing
Year 2000 compliant upgrades is on target. As of March 31, 1999,
Union National has remedied all eleven of its identified mission-
critical and related systems. The Year 2000 computer problem
creates risk for Union National from unforseen problems in its
own computer systems and from third-party vendors who provide the
majority of mainframe and PC based computer applications. Union
National has completed testing of its own remediated mission-
critical systems for Year 2000 compliance as of June 30, 1999.
Failure of third-
<PAGE>
party systems relative to the Year 2000 issue could have a
material impact on Union National's ability to conduct business.
Contingency Plans
Union National has developed business resumption and cash
liquidity contingency plans. These plans are for the possibility
of the failure of its systems at critical dates in the future and
for disruptions caused by power outages and telecommunication
system failures.
A remediation contingency plan is to provide an alternative
system in the event a mission-critical system cannot be fully
implemented and tested for Y2K readiness by a reasonable date
that ensures a continuity of the Bank's core business processes.
Since Union National's mission-critical systems have been
remediated and tested for Year 2000 compliance as of June 30,
1999, it is not necessary for Union National to develop a
remediation contingency plan.
Regulatory Activity
___________________
From time to time, various types of federal and state legislation
have been proposed that could result in additional regulation of,
and restrictions on, the business of Union National and the Bank.
Congress has proposed "modernization" of the financial services
industry. This proposed modernization will have the effect of
deregulating and expanding the business activities of financial
institutions. These additional activities may include broader
insurance powers, securities underwriting activities, and the
offering of equity investments by commercial banks. It cannot be
predicted whether such legislation will be adopted or, if
adopted, how such legislation would affect the business of Union
National and the Bank. As a consequence of the extensive
regulation of commercial banking activities in the United States,
Union National's and the Bank's business is particularly
susceptible to being affected by federal legislation and
regulations that may increase the cost of doing business. Except
as specifically described above, Management believes that the
effect of the provisions of the aforementioned legislation on the
liquidity, capital resources, and results of operations of Union
National will be immaterial. Management is not aware of any
other current specific recommendations by regulatory authorities
or proposed legislation, which if they were adopted, would have a
material adverse effect upon the liquidity, capital resources, or
results of operations, although the general cost of compliance
with numerous and multiple federal and state laws and regulations
does have, and in the future may have a negative impact on Union
National's results of operations.
Further, the business of Union National is also affected by the
state of the financial services industry in general. As a result
of legal and industry changes, Management predicts that the
industry will continue to experience an increase in
consolidations and mergers as the financial services industry
strives for greater cost efficiencies and market share.
Management believes that such consolidations and mergers may
enhance its competitive position as a community bank.
As the Year 2000 approaches, regulation of Union National and the
Bank with respect to completing Year 2000 modifications is likely
to increase. A brief discussion of the most recent federal
banking agency pronouncements that affect Union National and/or
the Bank follows.
In December 1997, the Federal Financial Institutions Examination
Council (FFIEC) issued an interagency statement. The statement
indicates that senior management and the board of directors
should be actively involved in managing Union National's and the
Bank's Year 2000 compliance efforts. The statement also
recommended that institutions obtain Year 2000 compliance
certification from vendors followed by comprehensive internal
testing. In addition, contingency plans should be developed for
all vendors that service mission-critical applications, which are
applications vital to the successful continuance of a core
business activity.
<PAGE>
The OCC issued an advisory indicating that Year 2000 preparedness
will be factored into reviews of de novo charters, conversions,
business combinations, and establishment of federal branches and
agencies as well as hardware and software systems integration
issues related to business combinations.
In addition, the OCC recently issued an advisory providing
guidance in key milestones and testing methods for institutions
to use to prepare their systems and applications for the Year
2000. Institutions should develop and implement written testing
strategies and plan to test both internal and external systems.
In May 1998, the FFIEC issued two interagency statements with
regard to Year 2000 readiness. The first statement provided
guidance for institutions to design its Year 2000 contingency
plan to mitigate the risks associated with the institution's
failure to become Year 2000 compliant or the failure of mission-
critical systems at specific dates. The second statement
provided suggestions for developing a customer awareness program
and identifies issues that financial institutions should be
prepared to discuss with customers.
Changes in Accounting Standards
_______________________________
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 133, (SFAS No. 133), "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." This Statement establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and
for hedging activities. In addition, the transition provisions
of this Statement allow Union National to reclassify held to
maturity securities to an available for sale classification.
Union National does not expect the provisions of this Statement
to have a material effect on the liquidity, results of
operations, or capital resources of Union National when it
becomes effective. The effective date of this pronouncement was
delayed until the first quarter of 2001 through the issuance of
SFAS No. 137.
In October 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 134, (SFAS No. 134), "Accounting for Mortgage-
Backed Securities Retained after the Securitization of Mortgage
Loans Held for Sale by a Mortgage Banking Enterprise." There is
no incidence of coverage for Union National under this Statement.
Current Accounting Developments
_______________________________
In December 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
issued an invitation to comment document entitled "Methods of
Accounting for Business Combinations: Recommendations of the G4+1
for Achieving Convergence." Subsequently in April 1999, the FASB
tentatively agreed to eliminate the pooling-of-interests method
of accounting for business combinations effective January 1,
2001. In reaching its conclusion, the Board commented that the
use of two methods, purchase and pooling-of-interests, makes it
difficult for users to compare the financial statements of
companies engaged in business combinations, and that the pooling
method is inconsistent with the general concept of fair value
associated with acquisitions. Accordingly, the Board concluded
that there should be a single method of accounting for all
business combinations, and that method is the purchase method.
As a general rule, the purchase method establishes a new
accounting basis for the assets and liabilities acquired based on
fair value and recognizes goodwill (positive or negative).
Goodwill, the difference between the purchase price and total
value of assets and liabilities obtained, is an intangible asset
that must be amortized over future periods. Regarding
transition, the Board tentatively concluded that all business
combinations reported before final issuance of a new standard, as
well as all combinations in process at the time the new standard
is issued should be accounted for under APB 16 as a pooling, if
the pooling criteria within the standard are met. The FASB
expects to issue an Exposure Draft during 1999, but has not yet
indicated when it expects to issue the final standard.

events or uncertainties which are reasonably expected to have a
material impact on future results of operation, liquidity or
capital resources. Further, based on known information,
Management believes that the effects of current and past economic
conditions and other unfavorable specific business conditions may
result in the inability of loans amounting to $2,436,000 to
comply with their respective repayment terms. This amount
represents a slight decrease from the amount of $2,526,000 at
December 31, 1998. In aggregate, these loans are well secured,
essentially with real estate, equipment and vehicles. Management
currently believes that potential losses on these loans have
already been provided for in the Allowance for Loan Losses. The
borrowers are of special mention since they have shown a decline
in financial strength and payment quality. Management has
increased its monitoring of the borrowers' financial strength.
In addition, Management currently estimates that a portion of
these loans will be classified as nonperforming
in the remaining months of 1999.
At June 30, 1999, total nonperforming assets amounted to
$1,351,000, or .8% of total net loans, as compared to a level of
$1,353,000, or .8%, at December 31, 1998. Historically, the
percentage of nonperforming assets to total net loans as of
December 31, for the previous five year period was an average of
.7%.
Allowance for Loan Losses
_________________________
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level believed
adequate by Management to absorb estimated probable loan losses
and is formally reviewed by Management on a quarterly basis. The
allowance is increased by provisions charged to operating expense
and reduced by net charge-offs. Management's periodic evaluation
of the adequacy of the allowance is based on Union National's
past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the
portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's
ability to repay (including the timing of future payments), the
estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the
loan portfolio, current economic conditions, and other relevant
factors. While Management uses available information to make
such evaluations, future adjustments to the allowance may be
necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the
assumptions used in making the evaluation. In addition, various
regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination
process, review the Bank's Allowance for Loan Losses. Such
agencies may require the Bank to recognize additions to the
allowance based on their judgement of information available to
them at the time of their examination.
The allowance for loan losses increased by $43,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1999, and the ratio of the allowance for
loan losses to net loans was 1.05% at June 30, 1999, as compared
to 1.06% at December 31, 1998. The increase in the allowance for
loan losses for the six month period was due primarily to an
increase in loans outstanding of $6,036,000 for the six month
period. Management believes, based on information currently
available, that the current allowance for loan losses of
$1,786,000 is adequate to meet potential loan losses. As of
April 1999, a review of selected portions of the Bank's
commercial loan portfolio was completed by an outside independent
consultant. At the conclusion of the review, the consultant did
not recommend any increase in the allowance for loan losses. It
is anticipated that there will be another review performed by an
outside independent consultant in 1999.
Liquidity
_________
Union National's objective is to maintain adequate liquidity to
fund needs at a reasonable cost and to provide contingency plans
to meet unanticipated funding needs or a loss of funding sources,
while minimizing interest rate risk. Adequate liquidity provides
resources for credit needs of borrowers, for depositor
withdrawals, and for funding Corporate operations. Sources of
liquidity are as follows:
- - maturing investment securities, which include overnight
investments in federal funds sold;
- - overnight correspondent bank borrowing on various credit
lines;
<PAGE>
- - payments on loans and mortgage-backed securities; and
- - a growing core deposit base.
Management believes that its core deposits are fairly stable even
in periods of changing interest rates. Liquidity management is
governed by policies and measured on a quarterly basis. These
measurements indicate that liquidity generally remains stable and
that liquidity consistently exceeds the Bank's minimum defined
level. There are no known trends, or any known demands,
commitments, events, or uncertainties that will result in, or
that are reasonably likely to result in, liquidity increasing or
decreasing in any material way, except the expectation for
customers to withdraw or request additional amounts in cash from
their deposit accounts or lines of credit as the year 2000
approaches. Union National has developed a cash liquidity
contingency plan incorporating third-party cash sources and the
Federal Reserve Bank. Union National believes it will meet any
temporary increases in cash demands resulting from the year 2000
issue.
Membership in the FHLB provides the Bank with additional
liquidity alternatives such as short- or long-term funding on
fixed- or variable-rate terms. The Bank has a maximum funding
capacity of up to $81,390,000 available at the FHLB. In order to
provide funding for the Bank's loans and investments, the Bank
had outstanding borrowing from the FHLB of $30,535,000 at June
30, 1999 and $27,948,000 at June 30, 1998.
Market Risk - Interest Rate Risk
________________________________
As a financial institution, Union National's primary component of
market risk is interest rate volatility. Fluctuations in
interest rates will ultimately impact the level of income and
expense recorded on a large portion of the Bank's assets and
liabilities. Virtually all of Union National's interest-
sensitive assets and liabilities are held by the Bank, and
therefore, interest rate risk management procedures are performed
by the Bank. The nature of the Bank's current operations is such
that the Bank is not subject to foreign currency exchange or
commodity price risk. Union National does not own any trading
assets. Union National has not entered into any hedging
transactions such as interest rate floors, caps, and swaps.
The objectives of interest rate risk management are to maintain
or increase net interest income over a broad range of market
interest rate movements. The Asset and Liability Management
Committee is responsible for managing interest rate risk using
policies approved by the Bank's Board of Directors. The Bank
manages interest rate risk by changing the mix or repricing
characteristics of its investment securities portfolio and
borrowings from the FHLB and by the promotion or development of
specific loan and deposit products. The Bank retains an outside
consulting group to assist in monitoring its interest rate risk
using income simulation models on a quarterly basis. The
simulation model measures the sensitivity of future net interest
income to hypothetical changes in market interest rates.
In an effort to assess market risk, the Bank utilizes a
simulation model to determine the effect of gradual increases or
decreases in market interest rates on net interest income and net
income. The aforementioned assumptions are revised based on
defined scenarios of assumed speed and direction changes of
market interest rates. These assumptions are inherently
uncertain due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of rate
changes and changes in market conditions as well as management
strategies, among other factors. Because it is difficult to
accurately quantify into assumptions the reaction of depositors
and borrowers to market interest rate changes, the actual net
interest income and net income results may differ from simulated
results.
The simulation model assumes a hypothetical gradual shift in
market interest rates over a twelve month period. This is based
on a review of historical changes in market interest rates and
the level and curve of current interest rates. The simulated
results represent the hypothetical effects to the Bank's net
interest income and net income. Projections for loan and deposit
growth were ignored in the simulation model. The simulation
model includes all of the Bank's earning assets and interest-
bearing liabilities and assumes a parallel and prorated shift in
interest
<PAGE>
rates over a twelve month period. As a result of the simulation
model, it is currently anticipated that a hypothetical two
percent general rise or decline in prevailing market interest
rates over a one-year period will have an immaterial impact on
the Bank's net interest income over the next twelve months. The
computations do not contemplate any actions Management or the
Asset Liability Management Committee could undertake in response
to changes in market conditions or market interest rates.
The Bank managed its interest rate risk position for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 by the following:
- - marketing its variable rate home equity line of credit;
- - additions to or by repositioning of its investment security
portfolio into floating, short- or long-term securities;
- - increasing its extensions of adjustable- and floating-rate
loans for new or refinanced commercial and agricultural loans
(these outstanding loans increased by $2,193,000 for the
period);
- - managing and expanding the Bank's core deposit base including
deposits obtained in the Bank's commercial cash management
programs; and
- - additions to or restructuring of adjustable- and fixed-rate
advances from the FHLB, including convertible advances.
The above strategies and actions impact interest rate risk and
are all included in the Bank's quarterly simulation models in
order to determine future asset and liability management
strategies. See related discussions in the section on Net
Interest Income.
Stockholders' Equity
____________________
Union National maintains capital ratios that are well above the
minimum total capital levels required by federal regulatory
authorities including the risk-based capital guidelines. Other
than discussed herein, there are no material commitments for
capital expenditures. There are no known trends, events or
uncertainties, including regulatory matters that are expected to
have a material impact on the capital resources of Union National
for the remaining months of 1999, except as discussed below
concerning Union National's common stock repurchase plan. In
addition, see discussion on Regulatory Activity.
On February 11, 1999, Union National announced that the Board of
Directors had authorized and approved a plan to purchase up to
56,000 shares of Union National's outstanding common stock in
open market or privately negotiated transactions. The Board of
Directors believes that a redemption or repurchase of this type
is in the best interests of Union National and its stockholders
as a method to enhance long-term shareholder value. Currently,
the shares are to be held as treasury shares (issued, but not
outstanding shares). As of June 30, 1999, a total of 25,838
shares of common stock were repurchased under this plan at a cost
of $577,571. This amount was funded from consolidated earnings.
Union National and the Bank remain well capitalized and meet all
regulatory capital guidelines after the repurchase of the shares.
The Bank has risk-based capital ratios exceeding the regulatory
requirement. The risk-based capital guidelines require banks to
maintain a minimum risk-based capital ratio of 8.0% at June 30,
1999, as compared to the Bank's current risk-based capital ratio
of 14.20%. The total risk-based capital ratio is computed by
dividing stockholders' equity plus the allowance for loan losses
by risk-adjusted assets. Risk-adjusted assets are determined by
assigning credit risk-weighing factors from 0% to 100% to various
categories of assets and off-balance-sheet financial instruments.
Banking regulations also require the Bank to maintain certain
minimum capital levels in relation to Bank assets. Failure to
meet minimum capital requirements could result in prompt
regulatory action. As of December 31, 1998, the Bank was
categorized as well capitalized. Management is not aware of any
conditions or events that would adversely affect the Bank's
capital. The Bank maintains the following leverage and risk-
based capital ratios:
