Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Norwood Financial Corp. (Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Wayne Bank (Bank) and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, WCB Realty Corp., Norwood Investment Corp. and WTRO Properties. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and with instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all normal, recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of the Company. The operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010 or any other future interim period.

These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes which are incorporated by reference in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year-ended December 31, 2009.

2. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share represents income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate solely to outstanding stock options and are determined using the treasury stock method.

The following table sets forth the weighted average shares outstanding used in the computations of basic and diluted earnings per share:

(in thousands)

	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2010		2009
Basic EPS weighted average shares outstanding		2,768		2,737
Dilutive effect of stock options		7		18
Diluted EPS weighted average shares outstanding		2,775		2,755

Stock options which had no intrinsic value, because their effect would be anti-dilutive and therefore would not be included in the diluted EPS calculation were 137,150 and 113,150 as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

3. Stock-Based Compensation

The Company’s shareholders approved the Norwood Financial Corp 2006 Stock Option Plan at the annual meeting on April 25, 2006 and the Company awarded 47,700 options in 2006, 22,000 options in 2007, 24,000 options in 2008 and 27,000 options in 2009 and 1,000 options in 2010, all of which have a twelve month vesting period. As of March 31, 2010, there was $117,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested options granted in 2009 under the plan, which will be fully amortized by December 31, 2010.

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, 1,000 stock options were granted. A summary of stock options from all plans, adjusted for stock dividends declared, is shown below.

	Options	Weighted Average Exercise Price Per Share		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Terms		Aggregate Intrinsic Value ($000)


Outstanding at January 1, 2010	170,915	$	28.07	6.8	Yrs.	$	286
Granted	1,000		26.88	9.9	Yrs.		-
Exercised	(1,000)		10.36	.7	Yrs
Outstanding at March 31, 2010	170,915	$	28.17	6.5	Yrs.	$	190

Exercisable at March 31, 2010	145,930	$	28.09	5.1	Yrs.	$	190

Intrinsic value represents the amount by which the market price of the stock on the measurement date exceeded the exercise price of the option. The stock price was $27.00 as of March 31, 2010 and $28.59 as of December 31, 2009. The intrinsic value of options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $15,000, cash received from such exercises was $10,000 and the tax benefit recognized was $5,000.

4. Cash Flow Information

For the purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, interest-bearing deposits with banks all of which mature within 90 days and federal funds sold.

Cash payments for interest for the periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were $2,121,000 and $2,312,000, respectively. Cash payments for income taxes for the periods ending March 31, 2010 and 2009 were $3,000 and $2,000, respectively. Non-cash investing activity for 2010 and 2009 included repossession of other assets and foreclosed mortgage loans transferred to real estate owned of $70,000 and $132,000, respectively. Non-cash financing activity for 2009 includes $3,607,000 relating to the payable on the sale of deposits.

5. Comprehensive Income

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income. The components of other comprehensive income and related tax effects are as follows.

(in thousands)	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2010			2009
Unrealized holding gains (losses) on available for sale securities	$	279		$	901
Reclassification adjustment for gains (losses) realized in net income		(155	)		(161	)
Net unrealized gains (losses)		124			740
Income tax (benefit), expense		43			254
Other comprehensive income (loss)	$	81		$	486

6. Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments and Guarantees

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets.

The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

A summary of the Bank’s financial instrument commitments is as follows:

(in thousands)	March 31,
	2010		2009
Commitments to grant loans	$	16,473	$	15,441
Unfunded commitments under lines of credit		37,020		37,527
Standby letters of credit		3,438		1,695

	$	56,931	$	54,663

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer and generally consists of real estate.

The Bank does not issue any guarantees that would require liability recognition or disclosure, other than its standby letters of credit. Standby letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Generally, all letters of credit, when issued, have expiration dates within one year. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as those that are involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Bank, generally, holds collateral and/or personal guarantees supporting these commitments. Management believes that the proceeds obtained through a liquidation of collateral and the enforcement of guarantees would be sufficient to cover the potential amount of future payments required under the corresponding guarantees. The current amount of the liability as of March 31, 2010 for guarantees under standby letters of credit issued is not material.

U.S. Government agencies	$	10,470	$	(29	)	$	-	$	-		$	10,470	$	(29	)

	$	22,579	$	(152	)	$	498	$	(10	)	$	23,077	$	(162	)

The Company has twenty-seven securities in an unrealized loss position in the less than twelve months category and two securities in the twelve months or more category. In Management’s opinion the unrealized losses less than twelve months principally reflect changes in interest rates subsequent to the acquisition of specific securities. The Company holds a small amount of equity securities in other financial institutions. The value of these equity securities has been impacted by the overall weakness in the financial sector, one of which has been in a loss position for greater than one year. During the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company recorded an other-than-temporary impairment charge on two equity holdings totaling $31,000. Management believes that all other unrealized losses represent temporary impairment of the securities as the Company does not have the intent to sell these securities and it is more likely than not that it will not have to sell the securities before recovery of their cost basis.

8. Fair Value Measurements

Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1:

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2:

Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3:

Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported with little or no market activity).

An asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

Cash and cash equivalents (carried at cost):

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheet for cash and short-term instruments approximate those assets’ fair values.

Securities:

The fair value of securities available for sale (carried at fair value) are determined by obtaining quoted market prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges (Level 1), or matrix pricing (Level 2), which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices. For certain securities which are not traded in active markets or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations are adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, and such adjustments are generally based on available market evidence (Level 2). Internal cash flow models using a present value formula that includes assumptions market participants would use along with indicative exit pricing obtained from broker/dealers (where available) are used to support fair values of certain (Level 3) investments, if applicable.

Loans receivable (Carried at cost):

The fair values of loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using market rates at the balance sheet date that reflect the credit and interest rate-risk inherent in the loans. Projected future cash flows are calculated based upon contractual maturity or call dates, projected repayments and prepayments of principal. Generally, for variable rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values.

The Company measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties, or discounted cash flows based upon the expected proceeds. These assets are included as either Level 2 or Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. The fair value investment in impaired loans requiring an allowance for loans losses was $1,406,000, which is net of a valuation allowance of $155,000 and after a charge-off against the allowance for loan losses of $85,000 and $5,681,000, net of a charge-off against the allowance for loan losses of $690,000 not requiring an allowance for loan losses as of March 31, 2010. The fair value investment in impaired loans requiring an allowance for loan losses was $1,029,000, which is net of a valuation allowance of $36,000 and after a charge-off against the allowance for loan losses of $480,000 and $6,962,000, net of a charge-off against the allowance for loan losses of $154,000 not requiring an allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2009.

Foreclosed real estate owned

Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of loan foreclosure are to be sold and are carried at fair value less cost to sell. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised value of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. These assets are included in Level 2 fair value based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Restricted investment in Federal Home Loan Bank stock (carried at cost):

Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh. In December 2008, the FHLB of Pittsburgh notified member banks that it was suspending dividend payments and the repurchase of excess capital stock.

Management evaluates the restricted stock for impairment. Management’s determination of whether these investments are impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of their cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB. Management believes no impairment charge is necessary related to FHLB stock as of March 31, 2010.

Accrued interest receivable and payable (carried at cost):

The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable approximates its fair value.

Deposit liabilities (carried at cost):

The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and noninterest checking, passbook savings and money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered in the market on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

Short-term borrowings (carried at cost):

The carrying amounts of short-term borrowings approximate their fair values.

Other borrowings (carried at cost):

Fair values of FHLB advances are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on quoted prices for new FHLB advances with similar credit risk characteristics, terms and remaining maturity. These prices obtained from this active market represent a market value that is deemed to represent the transfer price if the liability were assumed by a third party.

Off-balance sheet financial instruments (disclosed at cost):

Fair values for the Company’s off-balance sheet financial instruments (lending commitments and letters of credit) are based on fees currently charged in the market to enter into similar agreements, taking into account, the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing.

The estimated fair values of the Bank’s financial instruments were as follows at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

10. Branch Closure

On December 26, 2008, the Company filed notifications with the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and the FDIC, requesting authorization to discontinue branch operations at its Hamlin Office, as the lease for the location expires in 2009, with no renewal options available. The Company entered into an agreement with NBT Bank to assume the deposits of the Hamlin location and the office was closed. The Company recorded a net payable to NBT Bank of $3,607,000, which was paid subsequent to March 31, 2009. The gain on the transaction was $150,000 with expense related to the closing, including final lease payments, of $46,000, included in other expense in the consolidated income statement.

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

Forward-Looking Statements

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 contains safe harbor provisions regarding forward-looking statements. When used in this discussion, the words believes, anticipates, contemplates, expects, and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Those risks and uncertainties include changes in interest rates, risks associated with the effect of opening a new branch, the ability to control costs and expenses, demand for real estate and general economic conditions. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to those forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Critical Accounting Policies

Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009 (incorporated by reference in Item 8 of the Form 10-K) lists significant accounting policies used in the development and presentation of its financial statements. This discussion and analysis, the significant accounting policies, and other financial statement disclosures identify and address key variables and other qualitative and quantitative factors that are necessary for an understanding and evaluation of the Company and its results of operations.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, potential impairment of restricted stock, accounting for stock

options, the valuation of deferred tax assets and the determination of other-than-temporary impairment losses on securities. Please refer to the discussion of the allowance for loan losses calculation under “Allowance for Loan Losses and Non-performing Assets” in the “Changes in Financial Condition” section.

The Company uses the modified prospective transition method to account for stock based compensation. Under this method companies are required to record compensation expense, based on the fair value of options over the vesting period.

The Deferred income taxes reflect temporary differences in the recognition of the revenue and expenses for tax reporting and financial statement purposes, principally because certain items are recognized in different periods for financial reporting and tax return purposes. Although realization is not assured, the Company believes that it is more likely than not that all deferred tax assets will be realized.

Restricted stock which represents required investment in the common stock of correspondent banks is carried at cost and as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, consists of the common stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh. In December 2008, the FHLB of Pittsburgh notified member banks that it was suspending dividend payments and the repurchase of excess capital stock.

Management evaluates the restricted stock for impairment. Management’s determination of whether these investments are impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of their cost rather than by recognizing temporary decline in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB. Management believes no impairment charge is necessary related to the restricted stock as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses on securities, the Company considers 1) the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than cost 2) the financial condition of the issuer and 3) the intent and ability of the Company to hold the security to allow for a recovery to fair value. During the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company recorded an other-than-temporary impairment charge on two equity holdings totaling $31,000. The Company believes that the unrealized losses on all other securities at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 represent temporary impairment of the securities, related to changes in interest rates.

Changes in Financial Condition

General

Total assets as of March 31, 2010 were $526.5 million compared to $529.7 million as of December 31, 2009 a decrease of $3.2 million. The decrease was due to a $4.0 million reduction in borrowed funds, primarily repurchase agreements.

Securities

The fair value of securities available for sale as of March 31, 2010 was $125.8 million compared to $131.3 million as of December 31, 2009. The Company purchased $18.7 million of securities principally using the proceeds from $23.9 million of securities sold, called, maturities and principal reductions.

The carrying value of the Company’s securities portfolio (Available-for Sale and Held-to Maturity) consisted of the following:

	March 31, 2010					December 31, 2009
(dollars in thousands)	Amount		% of portfolio			Amount		% of portfolio

US Government agencies	$	38,374		30.5	%	$	39,772		30.3	%
States and political subdivisions		35,120		27.9			32,343		24.6
Corporate securities		5,280		4.2			5,240		4.0
Mortgage-backed securities		46,183		36.7			53,154		40.5
Equity securities		864		0.7			776		0.6
Total	$	125,821		100.0	%	$	131,285		100.0	%

The Company has securities in an unrealized loss position. In management’s opinion, the unrealized losses in the mortgage-backed securities reflect changes in interest rates subsequent to the acquisition of specific securities. The unrealized losses in the State and Political Subdivisions also reflect a widening of spreads due to liquidity and credit concerns in the financial markets. The Company holds a small amount of equity securities in other financial institutions, the value of which has been impacted by the weakening conditions of the financial markets. During the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company recorded an other-than-temporary impairment charge on two equity holdings totaling $31,000. Management believes that the unrealized losses on all other equity holdings represent temporary impairment of the securities, as the Company has the intent and ability to hold these investments until maturity or market price recovery.

Loans Receivable

Loans receivable totaled $357.6 million compared to $363.5 million as of December 31, 2009. Residential real estate loans decreased $1.5 million principally due to the sale of $4.3 million of residential mortgages. The loans were sold for interest rate risk management to shorten the average life of the mortgage loan portfolio. Commercial loans including commercial real estate loans decreased $1.2 million during the period while all other commercial and retail loans decreased $3.2 million.

Set forth below is selected data relating to the composition of the loan portfolio at the dates indicated:

Allowance for Loan Losses and Non-performing Assets

Following is a summary of changes in the allowance for loan losses for the periods indicated:

	Three Months
(dollars in thousands)	Ended March 31
	2010			2009
Balance, beginning	$	5,453		$	4,233
Provision for loan losses		330			225

Allowance to total loans		1.50	%		1.26	%
Net (charge-offs) recoveries to average loans (annualized)		.47	%		.05	%

The allowance for loan losses totaled $5,362,000 as of March 31, 2010 and represented 1.50% of total loans, compared to $5,453,000 at year end, and $4,413,000 as of March 31, 2009. The Company had net charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2010 of $421,000 compared to $45,000 in the comparable period in 2009. The charge-offs during the three months ended March 31, 2010 included $412,000 of losses on loans that were previously carried in nonaccrual status. The Company’s loan review process assesses the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis. The process includes an analysis of the risks inherent in the loan portfolio. It includes an analysis of impaired loans and a historical review of credit losses by loan type. Other factors considered include: concentration of credit in specific industries; economic and industry conditions; trends in delinquencies and loan classifications, large dollar exposures and loan growth. Management considers the allowance adequate at March 31, 2010 based on the Company’s criteria. However, there can be no assurance that the allowance for loan losses will be adequate to cover significant losses, if any, that might be incurred in the future.

As of March 31, 2010, non-performing loans totaled $3,996,000, which is 1.12% of total loans compared to $5,015,000, or 1.38% of total loans at December 31, 2009. The decrease was principally due to the resolution and payoff of two commercial credits. The following table sets forth information regarding non-performing loans and foreclosed real estate at the dates indicated:

Deposits

Total deposits as of March 31, 2010 were $391.7 million compared to $391.5 million as of December 31, 2009, an increase of $200,000. During the period, interest bearing demand deposits increased $7.2 million and savings deposits increased $3.4 million to offset a $10.8 million reduction in certificates of deposit. The decrease in certificates is due to the maturity of retail certificates which were generated through promotions and jumbo certificate withdrawals due to seasonal fluctuations in public funds balances.

The following table sets forth deposit balances as of the dates indicated:

(dollars in thousands)	March 31, 2010		December 31, 2009

Borrowings

Short-term borrowings as of March 31, 2010 totaled $21.8 million compared to $25.8 million as of December 31, 2009. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase declined $4.0 million principally due to the seasonality of municipal cash management accounts. Short-term borrowings consist of the following:

The convertible notes contain an option which allows the FHLB, at quarterly intervals to change the note to an adjustable-rate advance at three month LIBOR plus 11 to 19 basis points. If the notes are converted, the option allows the Bank to put the funds back to the FHLB at no charge.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Bank is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.

A summary of the contractual amount of the Company’s financial instrument commitments is as follows:

	March 31, 2010		December 31, 2009
	(in thousands)
Commitments to grant loans	$	16,473	$	17,713
Unfunded commitments under lines of credit		37,020		36,809
Standby letters of credit		3,438		3,679

	$	56,931	$	58,201

Stockholders’ Equity and Capital Ratios

As of March 31, 2010, stockholders’ equity totaled $65.1 million, compared to $64.5 million as of December 31, 2009. The net change in stockholders’ equity included $1,797,000 in net income, that was partially offset by $771,000 of dividends declared and a $529,000 reduction due to an increase in Treasury Stock. In addition, accumulated other comprehensive income increased $81,000 due to an increase in fair value of securities in the available for sale portfolio, net of tax. This increase in fair value is the result of a change in interest rates, which may impact the value of the securities. Because of interest rate volatility, the Company’s accumulated other comprehensive income could materially fluctuate for each interim and year-end period.

A comparison of the Company’s regulatory capital ratios is as follows:


	March 31, 2010			December 31, 2009
Tier 1 Capital
(To average assets)		12.02	%		11.53	%
Tier 1 Capital
(To risk-weighted assets)		17.39	%		16.55	%
Total Capital
(To risk-weighted assets)		18.71	%		17.85	%

The minimum capital requirements imposed by the FDIC on the Bank for leverage, Tier 1 and Total Capital are 4%, 4% and 8%, respectively. The Company has similar capital requirements imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (FRB). The Bank is also subject to more stringent Pennsylvania Department of Banking (PDB) guidelines. The Bank’s capital ratios do not differ significantly from the Company’s ratios. Although not adopted in regulation form, the PDB utilizes capital standards requiring a minimum of 6.5% leverage capital and 10% total capital. The Company and the Bank were in compliance with FRB, FDIC and PDB capital requirements as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

Liquidity

As of March 31, 2010, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $25.6 million in the form of cash, due from banks, Federal Funds sold and short-term deposits with other institutions. In addition, the Company had total securities available for sale of $125.6 million which could be used for liquidity needs. This totals $151.2 million and represents 28.7% of total assets compared to $147.9 million and 27.9% of total assets as of December 31, 2009. The Company also monitors other liquidity measures, all of which were within the Company’s policy guidelines as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009. Based upon these measures, the Company believes its liquidity is adequate.

Capital Resources

The Company has a line of credit commitment available from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Pittsburgh for borrowings of up to $20,000,000 which expires in December 2011. There were no borrowings under this line at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

The Company has a line of credit commitment from Atlantic Central Bankers Bank for $7,000,000 which expires in May 2010. There were no borrowings under these lines as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The Company has a line of credit commitment available which has no stated expiration date from PNC for $12,000,000. Borrowings under this line were $-0- as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

The Bank’s maximum borrowing capacity with the Federal Home Loan Bank was approximately $186,000,000 as of March 31, 2010, of which $43,000,000 was outstanding at March 31, 2010 and at December 31, 2009. Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank are secured by qualifying assets of the Bank.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This report contains or references fully taxable-equivalent (fte) interest income and net interest income, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Interest income (fte) and net interest income (fte) are derived from GAAP interest income and net interest income using an assumed tax rate of 34%. We believe the presentation of interest income (fte) and net interest income (fte) ensures comparability of interest income and net interest income arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources and is consistent with industry practice. Net interest income (fte) is reconciled to GAAP net interest income on page 26. Although the Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures enhance investors’ understanding of our business and performance, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP measures.

Comparison of Operating Results for The Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 to March 31, 2009

General

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, net income totaled $1,797,000 compared to $1,737,000 earned in the similar period in 2009. Earnings per share for the current period were $.65 for basic and fully diluted compared to $.63 per share for both basic and a fully diluted basis for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The resulting annualized return on average assets and annualized return on average equity for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was 1.38% and 11.10%, respectively, compared to 1.39% and 11.80%, respectively, for the similar period in 2009.

The following table sets forth changes in net income:

Net income three months ended March 31, 2010	$	1,797

Net Interest Income

Net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis (fte) for the three months ended March 31, 2010, totaled $5,203,000, an increase of $361,000 or 7.5% over the similar period in 2009. The fte net interest spread and net interest margin were 3.79% and 4.14%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to 3.54% and 3.96%, respectively, for the similar period in 2009.

Interest income (fte) totaled $6,848,000 with a yield on average earning assets of 5.45% compared to $6,851,000 and 5.61% for the 2009 period. The decrease in yield was due to the reinvestment of securities cash flow and new purchases of securities at lower than historical rates, resulting in a 76 basis point decrease in the yield earned on taxable securities. The yields earned on money market investments, tax-free securities and loans were comparable to the first three months of 2009. The total yield earned was also impacted by a $5.4 million increase in interest bearing deposits with banks at an average return of .32%. Average earning assets totaled $502.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, an increase of $14.3 million over the average for the similar period in 2009. This increase in average earning assets helped offset the decline in asset yields.

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010 totaled $1,645,000 at an average cost of 1.65% compared to $2,009,000 and 2.07% for the similar period in 2009. As a result of the decrease in short-term interest rates, the Company reduced rates paid on its money market accounts and cash management products, which are included in short-term borrowings. The cost of time deposits, which is the most significant

component of funding, declined to 2.20% from 3.01% for the similar period in the prior year. As time deposits matured, they repriced at the current lower rates resulting in the decrease.

Other Income

Other income totaled $1,002,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to $1,281,000 for the similar period in 2009. The current period includes a $75,000 gain on the sale of $4.3 million of fixed residential mortgages compared to $133,000 in gains on the sale of $9.7 million of mortgages in the similar period of 2009. The current period also includes a $155,000 gain on the sale of investment securities compared to a $161,000 gain in the first quarter of 2009. Service charges and fees decreased $75,000 compared to the first quarter of last year due primarily to a reduction in overdraft fees. In the first quarter of 2009 the Company closed its branch office in Hamlin, PA and recorded a gain of $150,000 on the sale of deposits to another financial institution.

Other Expense

Other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010 totaled $3,160,000, a decrease of $115,000 from $3,275,000 for the similar period in 2009. In 2010, the decrease in costs includes a $91,000 reduction in occupancy and equipment costs due primarily to the closing of a branch office in the first quarter of 2009. The decrease in other expenses also reflects a $73,000 reduction in miscellaneous other expenses due mainly to the prior-year recognition of $46,000 in expenses related to the closing of the Hamlin branch. Also contributing to the decrease in other expenses was a $8,000 reduction in FDIC premium expense due to a lower deposit base. These expense reductions offset a $41,000 increase in professional fees.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense totaled $712,000 for an effective tax rate of 28.4% for the period ending March 31, 2010 compared to $725,000 for an effective tax rate of 29.5% for the similar period in 2009.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Market Risk

Interest rate sensitivity and the repricing characteristics of assets and liabilities are managed by the Asset and Liability Management Committee (ALCO). The principal objective of ALCO is to maximize net interest income within acceptable levels of risk, which are established by policy. Interest rate risk is monitored and managed by using financial modeling techniques to measure the impact of changes in interest rates.

Net interest income, which is the primary source of the Company’s earnings, is impacted by changes in interest rates and the relationship of different interest rates. To manage the impact of the rate changes, the balance sheet must be structured so that repricing opportunities exist for both assets and liabilities at approximately the same time intervals. The Company uses net interest simulation to assist in interest rate risk management. The process includes simulating various interest rate environments and their impact on net interest income. As of March 31, 2010, the level of net interest income at risk in a 200 basis points change in interest rates was within the Company’s policy limits. The Company’s policy allows for a decline of no more than 8% of net interest income.

Imbalance in repricing opportunities at a given point in time reflects interest-sensitivity gaps measured as the difference between rate-sensitive assets (RSA) and rate-sensitive liabilities (RSL). These are static gap measurements that do not take into account any future activity, and as such are principally used as early indications of potential interest rate exposures over specific intervals.

As of March 31, 2010, the Bank had a positive 90 day interest sensitivity gap of $58.3 million or 11.1% of total assets, increasing from $26.3 million or 5.0% of total assets as of December 31, 2009. The change was principally due to a lower level of time deposits maturing in the 90 day time frame in the amount of $23 million and a higher level of overnight investments of $7 million as of March 31, 2010. A positive gap means that rate-sensitive assets are greater than rate-sensitive liabilities at the time interval. This would indicate that in a rising rate environment, the yield on interest-earning assets could increase faster than the cost of interest-bearing liabilities in the 90 day time frame. The repricing intervals are managed by ALCO strategies, including adjusting the average life of the investment portfolio, pricing of deposit liabilities to attract longer term time deposits, loan pricing to encourage variable rate products and evaluation of loan sales of long-term fixed rate mortgages.
