6.       Loans on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued or reduced
         amounted to approximately $4,309,216 and $4,368,704 at March 31, 1998
         and 1997, respectively. Although the Company has non-performing loans
         of approximately $4,309,216 at March 31, 1998, management believes it
         has adequate collateral to limit its credit risks.

         The balance of impaired loans was $1,058,551 at March 31, 1998. The
         Company identified a loan impaired when it is probable that interest
         and principal will not be collected according to the contractual terms
         of the loan agreements. The allowance for credit loss associated with
         impaired loans was $ -0- at March 31, 1998. The income recognized on
         impaired loans during the three month period ended March 31, 1998 was
         $1,395. The cash collected on impaired loans during this three month
         period was $175,043, of which $146,649 was credited to the principal
         balance outstanding on such loans. Interest that would have been
         accrued on impaired loans during this three month period in 1998 was
         $36,537. The Company's policy for interest income recognition on
         impaired loans is to recognize income on currently performing
         restructured loans under the accrual method. The Company recognizes
         income on non-accrual loans under the cash basis when the principal
         payments on the loans become current and the collateral on the loan is
         sufficient to cover the outstanding obligation to the Company. If these
         factors do not exist, the Company does not recognize income.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULT
         OF OPERATIONS

         The following discussion and analysis is intended to assist in
understanding and evaluating the major changes in the financial condition and
earnings performance of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries for the
three month period ended March 31, 1998.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

         Total consolidated assets as of March 31, 1998 were $407.4 million, a
decrease of $9.2 million from the $416.6 million reported at year end, December
31, 1997. This decrease is primarily due to a $14.1 million decrease in
investment securities, partially offset by a $6.1 million increase in cash and
cash equivalents. Liabilities decreased $9.8 million primarily due to a decrease
in Federal funds purchased of $15 million from December 31, 1997, partially
offset by a $6.9 million increase in deposits.

         This $14.1 million decrease in investment securities is comprised
mostly of a decrease in held to maturity ("HTM") investment securities of $13.8
million. The decrease in HTM investment securities is primarily due to scheduled
maturities in the first three months of 1998. HTM investment securities are
primarily comprised of taxable corporate debt securities which are "A" rated or
better by Moodys and/or Standard & Poor at the time of purchase, with maturities
in the three to five year range.

         Net loans changed little from the $282.7 million level at December 31,
1997 declining $.3 million to $282.4 million at March 31, 1998. Average net
loans was $285.1 million for the first quarter of 1998. The allowance for loan
loss increased $2.3 million to $10.4 million at March 31, 1998. The level of
allowance for loan loss reserve represents 3.6% of total loans at March 31, 1998
versus 2.8% at December 31, 1997. This increase in allowance was primarily due
to the increase in loans due to the purchase of a $75 million loan portfolio
from the FDIC in December of 1997. This loan portfolio is comprised of
approximately 175 commercial loans secured primarily by land, retail, and office
properties in the mid-Atlantic and northeast regions.

         Total deposits, the primary source of funds, increased $6.9 million to
$272.2 million at March 31,1998, from $265.4 million at December 31, 1997.
Average deposits was $279.9 million for the first quarter of 1998. This increase
in deposits is primarily due to increases experienced in certificates of
deposits of $3.8 million, in addition to a $2.9 million increase in NOW and
money market deposits. Federal funds purchased balance of $15 million at
December 31, 1997 was paid down completely on January 2, 1998. Federal Home Loan
Bank ("FHLB") advances did not change from its December 31, 1997 level of $31.1
million. This $31.1 million balance is comprised of three FHLB advances with an
weighted average interest rate of approximately 6.3%.

         Consolidated stockholder's equity increased $.7 million to $90.2
million at March 31, 1998 from $89.5 million at December 31, 1997. This increase
is primarily due to net income of $2.6 million for the first quarter period of
1998, partially offset by a quarterly cash dividend $1.7 million. On January
14th, 1998, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of twenty cents
<PAGE>   10
($.20) per share for holders of Class A common stock and twenty three cents
($.23) per share for holders of Class B common stock. The record date for the
cash dividend was January 30, 1998 and the payment date was February 13th, 1998.
Additionally, the change in market value of available for sale investment
securities in the first quarter caused a downward adjustment to the accumulated
unrealized gain of $244 thousand.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Consolidated net income for the three months ended, March 31, 1998 was
$2,619,020 or $.30 basic earnings per share, as compared to net income of
$2,114,124 or $.26 basic earnings per share, for the same three month period in
1997. This increase is primarily due to a 25% increase in net interest income in
1998.

         Net interest income before provision for loan loss reserve increased
$1.3 million, or 25%, to $6.2 million for the first quarter of 1998, as compared
to $4.9 million for the same quarter ended in 1997. This increase in net
interest income is primarily due to a $83.9 million increase in the average
balance of net loans to $281.9 million for the first quarter of 1998, primarily
due to the acquisition of a $75 million loan portfolio from the FDIC in
December, 1997, in addition to internally generated loan growth experienced in
1997 of approximately 9%. Total interest expense on deposits and borrowings
increased $.8 million to $3.3 million for the first quarter of 1998. These
increases were primarily the result of higher average balances of deposits and
borrowings of $27.3 million and $29.3 million, respectively, for the first
quarter of 1998. These increases in average balances were due to the funding of
the purchase of the FDIC loan portfolio in December 1997 discussed previously.

         Provision for loan loss was $2.4 million for the first three months of
1998 as compared to $-0- for the same period in 1997. Due to the increase in
loans, a $2.4 million provision for loan loss was recorded in January, 1998.
Chargeoffs and recoveries were $227 and $90 thousand, respectively, for the
three month period ended March 31, 1998 versus $36 and $76 thousand,
respectively, for the same period in 1997. Overall, Management considers the
current level of allowance for loan loss to be adequate at March 31, 1998.

         Total non interest income for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was
$2.7 million as compared to $.5 million for the same three month period in 1997.
This increase is primarily due to a $2.4 million increase in other income, the
result of a reversal of a legal accrual due to the settlement of litigation in
January 1998. This increase was partially offset by $.2 million decrease in
gains on sale of other real estate.

         Total non interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 1998
was $2.8 million, an increase of $.2 million, as compared to $2.6 million for
the same period in 1997. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase
in salaries and employee benefits expense in 1998.

CAPITAL ADEQUACY

         The company is required to maintain minimum amounts of capital to total
"risk weighted" assets and a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio, as defined by the
banking regulators. At March 31, 1998, the Company was required to have a
minimum Tier 1 and total capital ratios of 4% and 8%, respectively, and a
minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 3% plus an additional cushion of 100 to 200
basis points.

         The table below provides a comparison of Royal Bancshares of
Pennsylvania's risk-based capital ratios and leverage ratios:

</TABLE>

         The Company's ratios compare favorably to the minimum required amounts
of Tier 1 and total capital to "risk weighted" assets and the minimum Tier 1
leverage ratio, as defined by banking regulators. The Company currently meets
the criteria for a well capitalized institution, and management believes that
the Company will continue to meets its minimum capital requirements. At present,
the Company has no commitments for significant capital expenditures.

         The Company is not under any agreement with regulatory authorities nor
is the Company aware of any current recommendations by the regulatory
authorities which, if such recommendations were implemented, would have a
material effect on liquidity, capital resources or operations of the Company.


LIQUIDITY & INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

         Liquidity is the ability to ensure that adequate funds will be
available to meet its financial commitments as they become due. In managing its
liquidity position, all sources of funds are evaluated, the largest of which is
deposits. Also taken into consideration is the repayment of loans. These sources
provide alternatives to meet its short term liquidity needs. Longer liquidity
needs may be met by issuing longer term deposits and by raising additional
capital. The liquidity ratio is generally maintained equal to or greater than
25% of deposits and short term liabilities.

         The liquidity ratio of the Company remains strong at approximately 39%
and exceeds the Company's peer group levels and target ratio set forth in the
Asset/Liability Policy. The Company's level of liquidity is provided by funds
invested primarily in corporate bonds, US
<PAGE>   12
Treasuries and agencies, and to a lesser extent, obligations of state and
political subdivisions and federal funds sold. The overall liquidity position is
monitored on a monthly basis.

         Interest rate sensitivity is a function of the repricing
characteristics of the Company's assets and liabilities. These include the
volume of assets and liabilities repricing, the timing of the repricing, and the
interest rate sensitivity gaps is a continual challenge in a changing rate
environment. The following table shows separately the interest sensitivity of
each category of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities as of
March 31, 1998:

(1)  Interest earning assets are included in the period in which the balances
     are expected to be repaid and/or repriced as a result of anticipated
     prepayments, scheduled rate adjustments, and contractual maturities.

(2)  Reflects principal maturing within the specified periods for fixed and
     variable rate loans and includes nonperforming loans.

(3)  Fixed rate loans include a portion of variable rate loans whose floors are
     in effect at March 31, 1998.

(4)  For purposes of gap analysis, other assets include the allowance for
     possible loan loss, unamortized discount on purchased loans and deferred
     fees on loans.

(5)  Based on historical analysis, Money market and Savings deposits are assumed
     to have rate sensitivity of 1 month; NOW account deposits are assumed to
     have a rate sensitivity of 4 months.

        The Company's exposure to interest rate risk is mitigated somewhat by a
portion of the Company's loan portfolio consisting of floating rate loans, which
are tied to the prime lending rate but which have interest rate floors and no
interest rate ceilings. Although the Company is originating fixed rate loans, a
portion of the loan portfolio continues to be comprised of floating rate loans
with interest rate floors.
