1.  PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND PRESENTATION

    The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts 
of USABancShares, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary 
Peoples Thrift Savings Bank (the "Bank").  All significant intercompany 
accounts and transactions have been eliminated.  Certain reclassifications 
were made to 1995 data to conform to current year presentation.
 
    The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information.  
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes 
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial 
statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments including normal 
recurring accruals necessary for fair presentation of results of operations 
for the interim periods included herein have been made.  The results of 
operations for the nine months ended September 30 1996, are not necessarily 
indicative of results to be anticipated for the full year.

                         MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                   OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                  SEPTEMBER 30, 1996

    The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with 
the consolidated financial statements and related notes and with the 
statistical information and financial data appearing in this report as well 
as the Company's 1995 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. Results of operations for 
the nine month period ended September 30, 1996 are compared to the unaudited 
results of operations, of the Bank only, for the period ended September 30, 
1995. Such information is based upon the historical financial information 
available as of that date. Results of operations for the nine month period 
ended September 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of results to be 
attained for any other period.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
NET INCOME 

    The Company reported net income of $183,562, or $.31 per share, for the 
nine months ended September 30, 1996, compared to a $64,950 loss, for the 
nine months ended September 30, 1995, representing a 382.6% increase. 
Increased net income was primarily the result of discount accretion on 
purchased loans as well as increased net interest margins associated with 
interest earning asset growth. Noninterest income rose due to a gain on the 
sale of an investment security and additional loan review fees associated 
with higher commercial loan volumes. Expenses increased mainly due to costs 
associated with the hiring of additional employees as well as the production 
of additional earning assets.

NET INTEREST INCOME

    The Company's profitability, like that of many financial institutions, is 
dependent to a large extent upon net interest income. Net interest income is 
the difference between interest income (principally from loans and investment 
securities) and interest expense (principally on customer deposits and 
borrowings).  Changes in net interest income result from changes in volume, 
net interest spread and net interest margin.  Volume refers to the average 
dollar level of interest-earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.  
Net interest spread refers to the differences between the average yield on 
interest-earning assets and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. 
 Net interest margin refers to net interest income divided by average 
interest-earning assets and is influenced by the level and relative mix of 
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The Company 
is asset sensitive and as interest-earning assets mature or reprice more quickly
than interest-bearing liabilities in a given period, a significant decrease 
in the market rates of interest could adversely affect net interest income.  
In contrast, a rising interest rate environment could favorably impact the 
Company's margin. Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 
1996, increased $997,049 or 329.4%, to $1,299,703 from $302,654 for the same 
period in 1995.  Average interest-earning assets increased by $7.3 million, 
or 36.0%, to $27.6 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 
compared to the same period in 1995.  Average interest-bearing liabilities 
increased $3.3 million or 17.4% over the same period.  The average net 
interest spread increased from 1.69% to 5.34%, which was caused by the 
increase in average earning assets as discussed above. The Company's net 
interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, was 6.28%, 
compared to 1.99% for the same period in 1995. The improvement was primarily 
related to discount accretion on purchased loans and  higher volumes of 
earning assets during the nine months ended September 30, 1996, compared to 
the same period in 1995.

<PAGE>

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
 
    Management records the provision for loan losses in amounts that result 
in an allowance for loan losses sufficient to cover all potential net 
charge-offs and risks believed to be inherent in the loan portfolio.  
Management's evaluation includes such factors as past loan loss experience as 
related to current loan portfolio mix, evaluation of actual and potential 
losses in the loan portfolio, prevailing regional and national economic 
conditions that might have an impact on the portfolio, regular reviews and 
examinations of the loan portfolio conducted by bank regulatory authorities, 
and other factors that management believes deserve current recognition. 

    As a result of these factors, the provision for loan losses increased 
$50,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 1996. The allowance for loan 
losses as a percentage of loans and leases outstanding was 1.24% at September 
30, 1996, compared to .85% at year-end 1995 and .23% at September 30, 1995. 
Management believes that the allowance for loan losses, which is a general 
reserve, is adequate to cover actual and potential losses in the loan 
portfolio under current conditions.

    Management is not aware of any significant risks in the current loan 
portfolio due to concentrations of loans within any particular industry, nor 
of any separate types of loans within a particular category of non-performing 
loans that are unusually significant as to possible loan losses when compared 
to the entire loan portfolio. No charge-offs on loans were recorded during 
the third quarter of 1996 or for the comparable quarter in 1995.

INTEREST EXPENSE

    Total interest expense increased $111,848 or 15.24%, compared to the nine 
months ended September 30, 1996, due to higher new volumes of certificates of 
deposit. The average cost of funds, including other borrowings, was 5.03% for 
the first nine months of 1996 compared to 5.16% over the same period in 1995.

NONINTEREST INCOME
 
    Noninterest income increased $93,670 in the first nine months of 1996 
compared to the same nine months of 1995.   Gains on sales of securities 
classified as available for sale increased $22,063 during the period.  
Service charges on deposit accounts, other service charges, loan review fees, 
letter of credit fees and other miscellaneous income accounted for the 
additional $71,607 during the period.     

OTHER EXPENSE
 
    Other expense increased $714,166 or 191.4%, compared to the first nine 
months of 1995. Compensation expense increased $450,475 mainly as a result 
of additions to staff early in the first quarter of 1996.  In addition, 
occupancy expense increased $47,462 as a result of rental of additional space 
for corporate offices.  Office, travel and entertainment, advertising, 
depreciation and amortization expenses and other miscellaneous expenses 
increased $173,916 due to the increased efforts to attract additional 
customers.  Professional fees increased $5,035 due to an accrual 
increase in anticipation of higher year-end audit fees compared to the same 
period in 1995. 

LIQUIDITY 

    The Company's primary sources of funds are customer deposits, maturities 
of investment securities, sales of "Available for Sale" securities, loan 
sales, loan repayments, net income, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank 
of Pittsburgh, and the use of Federal Funds markets. Scheduled loan 
repayments are relatively stable sources of funds while deposit inflows and 
unscheduled loan prepayments are not.  Deposit inflows and unscheduled loan 
prepayments are influenced by general interest rate levels, interest rates 
available on other investments, competition, economic conditions, and other 
factors.

<PAGE>

    Deposits are the Company's primary source of new funds.  Total deposits 
increased to $23.8 million or 14.4% at September 30, 1996, compared to $20.8 
million as of December 31, 1995.  A concerted effort has been made to attract 
deposits in the market area served by the Bank through competitive pricing of 
the Bank s retail deposit products.  Increases over the period are due to  
marketing efforts, and new business development programs initiated by 
Company. Management anticipates that the Company will continue to rely on 
customer deposits, maturity of investment securities, sales of "Available for 
Sale" securities, loan sales, loan repayments, net income, Federal Funds 
markets, and FHLB borrowings to provide liquidity.  Although deposit balances 
have shown historical growth, such balances may be influenced by changes in 
the banking industry, interest rates available on other investments, general 
economic conditions, competition and other factors.  The following table 
summarizes the composition of the Bank s deposit portfolio.

    Other borrowings increased to $2.5 million at September 30, 1996, 
compared to $0.0 as of December 31, 1995. Borrowings may be used on a 
short-term basis to compensate for reductions in other sources of funds. 
Borrowings may also be used on a long-term basis to support expanded lending 
activities and to match maturities or repricing intervals of assets.  The 
sources of such funds will be Federal Funds purchased and borrowings from the 
FHLB.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

    Both the Company and the Bank are required to comply with certain 
"risk-based" capital adequacy guidelines issued by the Federal Reserve Bank 
("FRB") (for the Company) and the FDIC (for the Bank). The risk-based capital 
guidelines assign varying risk weights to the individual assets held by a 
bank. The guidelines also assign weights to the "credit-equivalent" amounts 
of certain off-balance sheet items, such as letters of credit and interest 
rate and currency swap contracts. Under these guidelines, institutions are 
expected to meet minimum ratios for "qualifying total capital" and Tier 1 
capital to risk-weighted assets of 8% and 4% respectively and a minimum 
leverage ratio (the ratio of Tier 1 capital to total average assets) of 3% 
plus an additional amount equal to between 1% and 2%. As used in the 
guidelines, "Tier 1 capital" includes common stockholders' equity, certain 
qualifying perpetual preferred stock and minority interests in the equity 
accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less goodwill. "Tier 2 capital" 
components (limited in the aggregate to one-half of total qualifying capital) 
include allowances for credit losses (within certain limits), certain excess 
levels of preferred stock and certain types of "hybrid" capital instruments. 
subordinated debt and other preferred stock. The subordinated debt component 
of Tier 2 capital is reduced by 20% per year over the last five years of the 
term of any subordinated debt.
