          The Company had no impaired  loans at March 31, 1998 and  December 31,
          1997.

          Nonaccrual loans excluded from impaired loan disclosure under FASB 114
          amounted to $238,000  at March 31, 1998 and  $243,000 at December  31,
          1997. If interest on these loans had been  accrued,  such income would
          have  approximated  $ 19,000  for the first  three  months of 1998 and
          $2,000 in 1997.

Note 5.   New Accounting Pronouncements


          FASB  Statement  No. 125,  "Accounting  for Transfers and Servicing of
          Financial Assets and  Extinguishments  of Liabilities",  was issued in
          June 1996 and  establishes,  among  other  things,  new  criteria  for
          determining  whether a transfer of  financial  assets in exchange  for
          cash or other consideration  should be accounted for as a sale or as a
          pledge  of  collateral  in a  secured  borrowing.  Statement  125 also
          establishes new accounting  requirements  for pledged  collateral.  As
          issued,  Statement 125 is effective for all transfers and servicing of
          financial assets and  extinguishments  of liabilities  occurring after
          December 1996.

          FASB  Statement No. 127,  "Deferral of the  Effective  Date of Certain
          Provisions  of FASB  Statement  No.  125",  defers  for one  year  the
          effective  date  (a) of  paragraph  15 of  Statement  125  and (b) for
          repurchase  agreement,  dollar-roll,  securities  lending,  or similar
          transactions, of paragraph 9-12 and 237(b) of Statement 125.

          FASB Statement No. 128,  "Earnings per Share",  was issued in February
          1997 and establishes  standards for computing and presenting  earnings
          per share  (EPS) and  applies to entities  with  publicly  held common
          stock  or  potential  common  stock.  This  Statement  simplifies  the
          standards for  computing  earnings per share  previously  found in APB
          Opinion No. 15,  "Earnings  Per Share",  and makes them  comparable to
          international  EPS standards.  It replaces the presentation of primary
          EPS  with  a  presentation   of  basic  EPS.  It  also  requires  dual
          presentation  of  basic  and  diluted  EPS on the  face of the  income
          statement  for  all  entities  with  complex  capital  structures  and
          requires a  reconciliation  of the  numerator and  denominator  of the
          basic EPS  computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted
          EPS computation.  This Statement is effective for financial statements
          issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997,  including  interim
          periods.

          FASB  Statement  No. 129,  "Disclosure  of  Information  About Capital
          Structure",  was issued in February 1997 and establishes standards for
          disclosing information about an entity's capital structure. It applies
          to all entities. This Statement continues the previous requirements to
          disclose certain information about an entity's capital structure found
          in APB Opinion No. 10,  "Omnibus  Opinion - 1966, and No. 15, Earnings
          per  Share",  and FASB  Statement  No. 47,  "Disclosure  of  Long-Term
          Obligations",  for entities that were subject to the  requirements  of
          those standards.  This Statement is effective for financial statements
          for periods ending after December 15, 1997.



                                                                              10

          FASB Statement No. 130, "Reporting  Comprehensive  Income", was issued
          in June 1997 and  establishes  standards  for reporting and display of
          comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains and
          losses) in a full set of general-purpose  financial  statements.  This
          Statement  requires  that all items that are required to be recognized
          under accounting  standards as components of  comprehensive  income be
          reported  in a financial  statement  that is  displayed  with the same
          prominence as other financial statements.

          This Statement requires that an enterprise (a) classify items of other
          comprehensive  income by their nature in a financial statement and (b)

Item 2.   MANAGEMENT'S  DISCUSSION  AND  ANALYSIS  OF  FINANCIAL  CONDITION  AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


          Financial Summary

          Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1998,  increased 17.3%
          to $712,000 or .39 per share compared to $607,000 or .35 per share for
          the first three months of 1997.  Annualized  returns on average assets
          and equity for the period ended March 3, 1998,  were 1.54% and 13.66%,
          respectively,  compared  to 1.49% and  13.71%  for the same  period in
          1997.

          The total assets of the Company increased to $185,908,000 at March 31,
          1998,  compared to $184,860,000 at December 31, 1997,  representing an
          increase of  $1,048,000  or .6%. Loan demand has increased the balance
          to  $107,010,000  at March 31, 1998, up from  $103,253,000 at December
          31, 1997. The  investment  portfolio has decreased 2.5% to $62,795,000
          at March 31, 1998 compared to $64,422,000 at December 31, 1997.

          Shareholders' equity at March 31, 1998, totaled $22,274,000,  compared
          to  $21,685,000  at December 31, 1997.  Book value per share of common
          stock on March 31,  1998 was  $12.29 per share  compared  to $12.02 at
          December 31, 1997.

          Net Interest Income

          Net interest  income is the Company's  primary  source of earnings and
          represents the difference  between interest and fees earned on earning
          assets and the interest  expense  paid on deposits and other  interest
          bearing  liabilities.  Net interest income totaled  $2,028,000 for the
          first three months of 1998 compared to $1,731,000  for the same period
          in 1997. The improvement in net interest income was  attributable to a
          higher volume of earning assets as well as management's  conscientious
          effort to improve the margin through asset/liability management.



                                                                              11

          Noninterest Income

          Service charges on deposit accounts for the first three months of 1998
          totaled  $214,000  compared  $205,000 for the same period in 1997,  an
          increase of 4.4%.  Commission and fees from  fiduciary  activities was
          $220,000 at March 31, 1998 compared to $23,000 at March 31, 1997.  The
          acquisition of The Tredegar Trust Company on August 1, 1997 has solely
          contributed to this increase.  Otherwise the Company currently derives
          most of its other  noninterest  income  from fees on  deposit  related
          products and sales of non deposit investment products.

          Noninterest Expense

          In  support  of the  Company's  continued  growth,  total  noninterest
          expenses  consisting of employee  related  costs,  occupancy and other
          overhead  totaled  $1,495,000  for the  first  three  months  of 1998,
          compared to $1,077,000  for the same period in 1997,  representing  an
          increase of $418,000 or 38.8%.  A portion of the  increase in expenses
          is attributable to the same types of overhead cost of the operation of
          The Tredegar Trust Company.

          Allowance for Loan Losses

          The allowance for loan losses at March 31, 1998 was  $1,019,000.  This
          is a $45,000 increase from December 31, 1997. The current ratio of the
          allowance for loan losses to gross loans is .94%.  Management believes
          the  allowance  for loan  losses is adequate  to cover  credit  losses
          inherent in the loan portfolio at March 31, 1998.  Loans classified as
          loss, doubtful, substandard or special mention are adequately reserved
          for and are not  expected  to have a material  impact  beyond what has
          been reserved.

          Capital Resources

          Shareholders'  equity at March 31,  1998 was  $22,274,000  compared to
          $21,685,000  on December 31, 1997. The retention of net income as well
          as the  decrease  in  allowance  for  unrealized  loss  on  securities
          available  for sale  have  been  contributing  factors  to  growth  in
          shareholders'  equity.  During the first quarter of 1997,  the Company
          did purchase and retire 22,689 shares at a cost of $635,292.

          At March 31, 1998, the Company's tier 1 and total  risk-based  capital
          ratios were 18.9% and 19.9%, respectively, compared to 18.8% and 19.7%
          at December 31, 1997. The Company's  leverage ratio was 11.4% at March
          31,  1998,  compared to a ratio of 11.8% at  December  31,  1997.  The
          Company's capital structure places it above the regulatory guidelines,
          as the Company  maintains a strong  capital base to take  advantage of
          business  opportunities  while  ensuring  that it has the resources to
          protect against the risks inherent in its business.

          Year 2000

          There have not been any material  changes in the disclosures  provided
          in the  Company's  Annual  Report on Form  10-KSB  for the year  ended
          December 31, 1997 with respect to Year 2000.  The Company's  Year 2000
          Committee continues to meet on a regular basis to address and evaluate
          the  potential  problems  that may be  encountered  within  all of the
          Company's subsidiaries with respect to Year 2000 issues.
