                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                 (dollars in thousands, except per share data)


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying  consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ohio
Valley Banc Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries The Ohio Valley Bank Company
and Loan Central,  Inc. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated in consolidation.

These interim  financial  statements are prepared  without audit and reflect all
adjustments of a normal  recurring  nature which,  in the opinion of Management,
are  necessary to present  fairly the  consolidated  financial  position of Ohio
Valley Banc Corp. at September 30, 1998,  and its results of operations and cash
flows  for  the  periods  presented.  The  accompanying  consolidated  financial
statements  do not purport to contain all the  necessary  financial  disclosures
required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  that might otherwise be
necessary in the circumstances. The Annual Report for Ohio Valley Banc Corp. for
the year ended December 31, 1997, contains consolidated financial statements and
related  notes  which  should  be  read in  conjunction  with  the  accompanying
consolidated financial statements.

The  provision  for  income  taxes is based upon the  effective  income tax rate
expected to be applicable for the entire year.

For  consolidated  financial  statement  classification  and cash flow reporting
purposes,  cash and cash equivalents  include cash on hand,  noninterest-bearing
deposits with banks and federal funds sold. For the nine months ended  September
30, 1998 and 1997, Ohio Valley Banc Corp. paid interest in the amount of $11,404
and  $10,003,  respectively.  For the nine months ended  September  30, 1998 and
1997,   Ohio  Valley  Banc  Corp.  paid  income  taxes  of  $1,292  and  $1,160,
respectively.

Earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average shares  outstanding
during the  period.  For the nine  months  ended  September  30,  1998 and 1997,
weighted average shares outstanding were 2,723,620 and 2,659,856,  respectively.
On April 8, 1998,  the Board of Directors  declared a three for two stock split,
effected in the form of a stock dividend, to shareholders of record on April 20,
1998.  The stock split was recorded by  transferring  from retained  earnings an
amount  equal  to the  stated  value of the  shares  issued.  Earnings  and cash
dividends  per share  amounts  have been  retroactively  adjusted to reflect the
effect of the stock split.

The  Company  adopted  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standard  No.  130,
"Reporting   Comprehensive   Income".   Under  this  new  accounting   standard,
comprehensive  income is now  reported  for all  periods.  Comprehensive  income
includes both net income and other  comprehensive  income.  Other  comprehensive
income  includes  the  change  in  unrealized  gains and  losses  on  securities
available-for-sale.

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

INTRODUCTION

The following discussion focuses on the consolidated financial condition of Ohio
Valley Banc Corp. at September 30, 1998,  compared to December 31, 1997, and the
consolidated  results of operations for the year-to-date  and quarterly  periods
ending September 30, 1998,  compared to the same periods in 1997. The purpose of
this  discussion is to provide the reader a more thorough  understanding  of the
consolidated financial statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction
with the interim consolidated financial statements and the footnotes included in
this Form 10-Q.

The  Registrant is not aware of any trends,  events or  uncertainties  that will
have or are  reasonably  likely  to have a  material  effect  on the  liquidity,
capital resources or operations except as discussed herein. Also, the Registrant
is not aware of any current  recommendations  by  regulatory  authorities  which
would have such effect if implemented.

On April 8, 1998, the Company entered into a Definitive  Purchase Agreement with
Jackson  Savings Bank pursuant to which the Company will acquire Jackson Savings
as a  wholly-owned  subsidiary.  Under the terms of the  Agreement,  each of the
19,400 shares of Jackson Savings will be exchanged for a number of the Company's
common  shares  with a  total  market  value  equal  to  $163.09.  The  proposed
acquisition is subject to certain conditions,  including the approval of Jackson
Savings Bank shareholders and approval of certain  regulatory  authorities.  The
transaction is expected to be completed in the fourth  quarter of 1998.  Jackson
Savings is a savings  bank  located in Jackson,  Ohio with  approximately  $15.5
million in assets and $2.7  million in  shareholders'  equity at March 31, 1998.
Management  entered  into the  agreement  to expand and  enhance  the  Company's
banking activities in Jackson County.

The Company opened its third  Superbank in August.  The office is located in the
new 189,000 square foot Wal-Mart  SuperCenter in Cross Lanes,  West Virginia.  A
fourth  Superbank will be located in the Big Bend Foodland in Pomeroy,  Ohio and
is expected to open in the fourth  quarter of this year.  These offices  provide
seven day a week  banking and will allow the Company to market its services to a
new customer base.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

For the first nine months of 1998 total assets expanded  $43,697 or 12% to reach
$407,792. The growth in assets was driven by strong loan demand; total loans are
up $41,192 or 15.3%.  Funding  the growth in assets were  increases  in borrowed
funds of $15,500, deposits of $14,609 and repurchase agreements of $8,780.

Loan growth was led by real estate  mortgages  expanding  $30,081  driven by low
interest rates. Approximately 60% of the growth has occurred in Jackson and Pike
counties in Ohio and Mason county in West  Virginia.  These  counties  represent
newer markets for the Company.  Management anticipates that it will continue its
provision  to the  allowance  for  loan  losses  at its  current  level  for the
foreseeable
                                       11

future and believes the allowance is adequate to absorb  inherent  losses in the
portfolio  based  on  collateral  values  and a  comprehensive  analysis  of the
allowance for loan and lease loss which is performed on a quarterly  basis. As a
percentage  of total loans,  the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1998
was 1.19% down from 1.22% at December 31, 1997.

Total  deposits at September  30, 1998,  of $308,321  represents  an increase of
$14,609 or 5.0% from  December 31,  1997.  Savings and  interest-bearing  demand
deposits  accounted  for a majority  of the growth  with an  increase of $13,092
followed by  noninterest-bearing  deposits increasing $3,623. Due to the falling
rate  environment,  management  preferred  to grow  deposits  in  variable  rate
products instead of fixed rate time deposits.  These balances were influenced by
more aggressive  pricing on NOW and money market accounts combined with a larger
market  area.  With the  growth in  nonmaturity  deposits  and  borrowed  funds,
management  relied less on time deposits,  the Company's most expensive  deposit
account. Time deposits decreased $2,106.

Securities sold under  agreements to repurchase  increased  $8,780 from December
31, 1997 and is due mostly to one customer.  Other  borrowed funds are primarily
advances  from the Federal  Home Loan Bank  (FHLB),  which are used to fund loan
growth  or  short-term  liquidity  needs.  FHLB  borrowings  have  two  distinct
advantages:  they are less expensive than deposits for comparable terms and they
are not subject to early  redemption.  Other  borrowed funds are up $15,500 from
December 31, 1997. A portion of the growth is related to the Bank  participating
in a program with the Federal  Reserve who deposits tax receipts in banks in the
form of  collateralized  interest-bearing  notes.  The balance of these notes at
September 30, 1998, was $1,258.

Total  shareholders'  equity at  September  30, 1998 of $37,200 was 8.9% greater
than the balance of $34,166 on December 31, 1997.  Contributing to this increase
was year-to-date income of $2,882 and proceeds from the issuance of common stock
through the dividend  reinvestment  plan of $1,139 less cash  dividends  paid of
$1,123, or $.41 per share adjusted for stock split. The cash dividend represents
39% of the year-to-date income.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Ohio  Valley Banc  Corp.'s net income was $958 for the third  quarter and $2,882
for the first nine months of 1998, up 2.4% and 9.6%, compared to $936 and $2,630
for the same periods in 1997.  Third quarter net income per share,  adjusted for
the stock split,  was $.35  equaling  the  previous  year and for the first nine
months of 1998,  net  income  per share was  $1.06,  up 7.1% over  1997's  $.99.
Comparing  year-to-date  results for 1998 to 1997,  return on average assets was
1.00% for both  periods  and return on average  equity  was 10.86%  compared  to
11.20%.

The increase in net income was primarily  attributable  to gains in net interest
income which exceeded the  year-to-date and third quarter of last year by $1,836
and $624. The increase in net interest income was primarily due to the growth in
earning  assets of $41,099  from  December  31,  1997.  The gain in net interest
income was partially offset by net noninterest  expense  increasing $874 for the
first nine months and increasing  $382 for the third quarter in 1998 compared to
the same periods in 1997. The provision

                                     12
<PAGE>

for loan  losses was $1,383  for the nine  months  ending  September  30,  1998,
compared to $768 for the same time  period in 1997.  The  increase in  provision
expense was related to the loan portfolio  expanding  15.3% in 1998 and net loan
charge-offs increasing $363, primarily in consumer loans.

In 1998,  total  other  income  increased  $275 for the first  nine  months  and
increased  $110 for the third  quarter  compared  to the same  periods  in 1997.
Contributing  to  the  gain  was  the  collection  of an  outstanding  insurance
commission of $41 and the increase in deposit  service charges due to the growth
in account volume.  In 1998, total other expense  increased $1,149 or 12.8% over
the first nine months of 1997 and increased $492 or 15.9% over the third quarter
of 1997. With the establishment of additional offices and growth in assets which
require  more people to service,  the number of full-time  equivalent  employees
increased  by 19 from  September  30, 1997 to  September  30,  1998.  Salary and
employee benefits are up $525 over the first nine months of 1997 and are up $201
over the third quarter of 1997.  Additionally,  the Company awarded annual merit
increases.  The growth in operations  coupled with the  investment in processing
technology  provided  for the increase in occupancy  expense and  furniture  and
equipment  expense.  The  upgrade in  technology  produced  a  decrease  in data
processing expense.  Contributing to the increase in other operating expense was
computer software depreciation and general increases in overhead expenses.

In  May  1997,  a  six  member   committee  was  formed  and  charged  with  the
responsibility  of  ensuring  that the  Company  will be ready for the Year 2000
transition.  This committee has conducted extensive inventories of the Company's
computer  software and hardware as well as other equipment that may be microchip
dependent.  The vendors associated with the aforementioned hardware and software
were contacted to determine the product's Year 2000 readiness.  A Year 2000 plan
has been  developed  which  commits the Company to being Year 2000  compliant by
December  31,  1998,  thereby  affording  the  Company one full year to test all
mission critical systems to verify their viability for the Year 2000 and beyond.
The Company's core software applications, which process loans and deposits, were
developed with the Year 2000 in mind.  Nevertheless,  the Company is testing its
core hardware and software applications in the fourth quarter of 1998.

The  awareness  and  assessment  phases of the  Company's  Year 2000  effort are
complete.  Management estimates that 90% of renovations have been completed.  By
the end of 1998, 90% of the Company's  testing efforts will have been completed.
Management  plans to have all  renovations  and testing  completed  by March 31,
1999.  Management  anticipates a total compliance cost of less than $100,000 and
therefore  such  costs  will not  materially  effect  the  Company's  results of
operations,  liquidity and capital  resources.  Much of the compliance costs are
related to the Company's testing efforts.  Therefore,  to date only minimal Year
2000 expenses have been incurred.

The risks associated with the Company's Year 2000 compliance relate primarily to
its  relationships  with  critical  business  partners,  which  include  service
suppliers  and  customers,  and their ability to  effectively  address Year 2000
issues.  In an effort to mitigate such risk, the Company has attempted to assess
the Year 2000 efforts and preparedness of our significant  customers and service
suppliers. The Company has formulated a Year 2000 contingency plan which will be
submitted for approval in the fourth quarter of 1998.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

All of the  capital  ratio's  exceeded  the  regulatory  minimum  guidelines  as
identified in the following table:

Cash  dividends  paid of $1,123 for the first nine months of 1997  represents  a
8.1% increase over the cash  dividends  paid during the same period in 1997. The
increase in cash  dividends  paid is due to the  additional  shares  outstanding
during 1998 which were not  outstanding  during 1997 and to the  increase in the
dividend  paid per share.  For the nine months ending  September  30, 1998,  the
Company issued 31,195 shares under the dividend  reinvestment and stock purchase
plan. At September 30, 1998, approximately 67% of the shareholders were enrolled
in the dividend  reinvestment  plan. Members of the plan invested $1,139 for the
first nine months of 1998 which exceeded year-to-date dividends paid.

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity  relates to the Bank's  ability  to meet the cash  demands  and credit
needs of its customers and is provided by the ability to readily  convert assets
to cash and raise funds in the market  place.  Total cash and cash  equivalents,
interest-bearing deposits with banks, securities available-for-sale and the fair
value  of  held-to-maturity  securities  maturing  within  one  year of  $38,433
represented  9.4% of total  assets at  September  30,  1998.  In  addition,  the
Corporation  has established a $16,900 line of credit with the Federal Home Loan
Bank  (FHLB) in  Cincinnati  to  further  enhance  the  bank's  ability  to meet
liquidity demands.  Furthermore,  the Bank would be able to borrow an additional
$45,000  from the FHLB based on the Bank's  available  collateral.  The  Company
experienced an increase of $852 in cash and cash equivalents for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998. See the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows
on page 5 for further cash flow information.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Company  maintains a diversified  credit  portfolio,  with real estate loans
comprising the most  significant  portion.  Credit risk is primarily  subject to
loans made to  businesses  and  individuals  in  southeastern  Ohio.  Management
believes  this  risk  to  be  general  in  nature,  as  there  are  no  material
concentrations  of  loans to any  industry  or  consumer  group.  To the  extent
possible,  the Company  diversifies  its loan  portfolio to limit credit risk by
avoiding industry concentrations.
