Financial Statement Presentation In the opinion of the management of TrustCo Bank Corp NY (the Company), the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Interim Financial Statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 1996, the results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, and the cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. The accompanying Consolidated Interim Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the TrustCo Bank Corp NY year-end Consolidated Financial Statements, including notes thereto, which are included in TrustCo Bank Corp NY's 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders on Form 10-K. - 5 - INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT The Board of Directors and Shareholders TrustCo Bank Corp NY: We have reviewed the consolidated statement of financial condition of TrustCo Bank Corp NY and subsidiaries (the Company) as of September 30, 1996, and the related consolidated statements of income for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the consolidated statement of financial condition of TrustCo Bank Corp NY and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated January 26, 1996, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated statement of financial condition as of December 31, 1995, is fairly presented, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated statement of financial condition from which it has been derived. /s/KPMG Peat Marwick LLP ------------------------------ KPMG Peat Marwick LLP Albany, New York October 11, 1996 - 6 - TrustCo Bank Corp NY Management's Discussion and Analysis September 30, 1996 The review that follows focuses on the factors affecting the financial condition and results of operations of TrustCo Bank Corp NY ("TrustCo " or " Company") during the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996, with comparisons to 1995 as applicable. Net interest income and net interest margin are presented on a fully taxable equivalent basis in this discussion. The consolidated interim financial statements and related notes, as well as the 1995 Annual Report to Shareholders, should be read in conjunction with this review. Amounts in prior period consolidated interim financial statements are reclassified whenever necessary to conform to the current period's presentation. Per share results have all been adjusted for the 15% stock split effective October 1996. Except for historical information contained herein, the matters contained in this review are "forward-looking statements" that involve risk and uncertainties, including statements concerning future events or performance and assumptions and other statements which are other than statements of historical facts. The Company wishes to caution readers that the following important factors, among others, could in the future affect the Company's actual results and could cause the Company's actual results for subsequent periods to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company herein: o the effect of changes in laws and regulations, including federal and state banking laws and regulations, with which the Company and its banking subsidiary must comply, the cost of such compliance and the potentially material adverse effects if the Company or its banking subsidiary were not in substantial compliance either currently or in the future as applicable; o the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the regulatory agencies as well as by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or changes in the Company's organization, compensation and benefit plans; o the effect on the company's competitive position within its market area of increasing consolidation within the banking industry and increasing competition from larger "super regional" and other out-of-state banking- organizations as well as nonbank providers of various financial services; o the effect of unforeseen changes in interest rates; and o the effects of changes in the business cycle and downturns in the local economy. - 7 - TrustCo Bank Corp NY Management's Discussion and Analysis -- continued September 30, 1996 Overview TrustCo recorded net income of $7.5 million, or $0.36 per share for the three month period ended September 30, 1996, as compared to net income of $6.6 million and per share earnings of $0.32 for the same time period in 1995. For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, TrustCo recorded net income of $21.1 million or $1.00 per share compared to $18.6 million and $0.90 per share in the comparable period in 1995. The primary factors accounting for the year to date increase in net income are: _ |_| an 8.5% increase in average earning assets, |_| reduction in the provision for loan losses by $4.8 million, |_| increase in noninterest income (excluding the effects of securities _ transactions) by approximately $590,000, and |_| the reduction in noninterest expense of $2.9 million. These positive factors affecting net income were offset by the following: _ |_| reduction in the net interest margin from 4.24% to 4.08%, |_| loss on securities sales of $4.3 million, and |_| an increase in income tax expense of $3.2 million. Asset/Liability Management The Company strives to generate superior earnings capabilities through a mix of core deposits funding a prudent mix of earning assets. This is, in its most fundamental form, the essence of asset/liability management. Additionally, TrustCo attempts to maintain adequate liquidity and reduce, to an acceptable level, the sensitivity of net interest income to changes in interest rates while enhancing profitability both on a short-term and long-term basis. Earning Assets Average earning assets increased $113.1 million to $2.16 billion during the third quarter of 1996 compared to 1995. The average yield on these earning assets was 7.80% compared to 8.20% in 1995. For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the average balance of earning assets increased by $167.7 million to $2.13 billion. Included in the tables "Distribution of Assets, Liabilities and Shareholders' Equity:Interest Rates and Interest Differential" is a detailed breakdown of TrustCo's average earning assets and interest bearing liabilities for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. Unless otherwise noted, the remainder of this discussion will utilize average balances for 1996 and 1995 as detailed on these tables. - 8 - TrustCo Bank Corp NY Management's Discussion and Analysis -- continued September 30, 1996 Loans During the third quarter, the average balance of loans increased from $1.20 billion in 1995 to $1.22 billion in 1996, representing a 2.2% increase. The average yield on the loan portfolio decreased from 9.06% in 1995 to 8.74% in 1996. The combination of the increase in average balance and the reduction in the yield produced a slight decline in income from the loan portfolio to $26.7 million. Virtually all of the growth in the loan portfolio was centered in the real estate loan balances, which increased from $725.8 million for the third quarter of 1995 to $786.5 million for the comparable 1996 period. TrustCo's aggressive marketing of these loans, combined with quick decision making on applications and low closing costs, allowed the Company to grow this portion of the loan portfolio. Also during the quarter, the home equity credit line balances decreased 7.9% from $201.1 million in 1995 to $185.3 million for 1996. The yield on this portfolio also decreased from 10.14% in 1995 to 9.17% in 1996. The decrease in yield reflects changes made by TrustCo earlier in the year to respond to competition which was offering lower overall rates on this product. Competition for this type of loan product is very strong since all of the local and national financial institutions try to attract customers to their home equity loan products. The same trends noted during the quarter are evident in the year to date results. Overall, the loan portfolio balances increased by 4.1% to $1.23 billion in 1996. This increase in outstanding balances was offset by a reduction in the overall yield on the loan portfolio from 9.06% in 1995 to 8.77% in 1996. Income from the loan portfolio for the nine months of 1996 amounted to $80.6 million, an increase of $651 thousand over the comparable period in 1995. The Company is a retail oriented institution, and as such, stresses the importance of consumer oriented products such as the residential mortgage loan, home equity loan, and credit cards. Each of these areas is an important contributor to profitability at TrustCo and is a focus of continued marketing and product development, so as to result in increases in the balances outstanding. The third quarter and the year to date results reflect this focus. TrustCo aggressively pursues the fixed rate residential mortgage loan market. The Company has a long history in underwriting loans in this market territory and is confident that the average life of these loans is significantly shorter than the contractual maturity. This asset portfolio is an excellent investment in relation to the core deposit base that TrustCo attracts. Securities Available for Sale During the third quarter of 1996 the average balance of securities available for sale was $500.9 million, versus an average balance for 1995 of $350.5 million. The yield earned on these assets in 1996 was 7.68%, compared to 7.44% in 1995. The change in average balance and the change in rates earned resulted in an increase in interest income on securities available for sale of $3.1 million. Most of the increase in the balance outstanding - 9 - TrustCo Bank Corp NY Management's Discussion and Analysis -- continued September 30, 1996 was the result of action taken in December 1995 when the Company transferred the entire held to maturity securities portfolio to the securities available for sale portfolio as permitted by changes in the accounting for securities. This action allows the Company to take full advantage of continuing changes in interest rates to maximize the overall yield on the portfolio while providing additional liquidity. The maximizing effect is further seen when the 1995 available for sale portfolio yield is combined with the 1995 yield for investment securities. The resulting combined yield for 1995's third quarter was 7.32% compared to the 7.68% earned on the comparable portfolio in 1996. The nine month average balance of securities available for sale was $586.7 million in 1996 with a yield of 7.58%, compared to an average balance for the nine months of 1995 of $246.6 million and a yield of 7.57%. As with the third quarter, the year to date results for 1995 compared to 1996 are significantly affected by the changes made in late 1995 to the portfolio of securities held to maturity. Therefore, for 1995, if the portfolio of securities available for sale is combined with the portfolio of securities held to maturity, the resulting overall yield was 7.34%, compared to the comparable portfolio for 1996 with a yield of 7.58%. Investment Securities There are no securities classified as investment securities for 1996. For 1995 the third quarter and the year to date results are detailed on the average balance tables. Federal Funds Sold During the third quarter the average balance of federal funds sold was $439.4 million, compared to $196.9 million in 1995. The yield earned on these asset balances during the quarter was 5.34% in 1996, and 5.86% in 1995. The yield earned by these investments is directly tied to the target federal funds rate as established by the Federal Reserve Board. The increase in the average balances more than offset the reduction in the average yield, thereby producing an approximately $3.0 million increase in the interest income on this investment. For the nine month results the average balance and yield was $321.8 million and 5.36% in 1996, and $214.3 million and 5.94% in 1995, respectively. The increases in the average balances for 1996 compared to 1995 for both the quarter and year to date results reflect management's decision to remain relatively liquid during 1996 as market interest rates in the loan and securities portfolios were fluctuating. This positions TrustCo to take advantage of these higher rates when the decision is made to reinvest this excess liquidity. Income from Earning Assets Income from earning assets was relatively flat during the third quarter of 1996 compared to 1995. The increase in the average balance of earning assets during the quarter was offset - 10 - TrustCo Bank Corp NY Management's Discussion and Analysis -- continued September 30, 1996 by the decrease in the yields earned. The year to date results reflect an increase of 4.7% in the income from earning assets between 1996 and 1995. Funding Opportunities TrustCo utilizes various funding sources to support its earning assets portfolio. The vast majority of the Company's funding comes from traditional deposit vehicles such as savings, NOW and time deposit accounts. Also, TrustCo developed a Short Term Investment Account which was introduced during the second quarter of 1995. This account accepts funds through the Trustco Trust Department. Total interest bearing liabilities increased during the quarter from $1.85 billion in 1995 to $1.94 billion in 1996. This increase in balance was offset by a reduction in cost on these liabilities from 4.59% in 1995 to 4.25% in 1996. The growth in the average balances was principally in the savings account and NOW account categories of deposits and in the short term borrowings (principally the Trustco Short Term Investment Account). Likewise, the average balance of money market certificates, deposits greater than $100 thousand, and the time deposit accounts, decreased during the quarter. For the year to date results, total interest bearing liabilities increased by 8.2% to $1.92 billion in 1996 compared to 1995. The yield on these liabilities decreased to 4.27% in 1996, compared to 4.40% in 1995. The increase in average balances was partially offset by the reduction in yields, thereby producing an increase of $3.0 million in total interest expense. Growth in deposit balances resulted from successful marketing and advertising campaigns undertaken during the first quarter of 1995 in both CD and savings products, which continued to attract deposits throughout the year. In TrustCo's past experience, deposits gathered as the result of these types of campaigns tend to become a very stable source of core customers who maintain their deposit relationship with the Company through various interest rate cycles and provide opportunities for cross selling additional banking services. Trustco has been successful in attracting deposits into the new branches opened in 1995 and to date in 1996. Net Interest Income Taxable equivalent net interest income totalled $21.5 million for the third quarter of 1996, compared to $20.7 million in 1995. For the nine months of 1996, taxable equivalent net interest income totalled $65.4 million compared to $62.6 million in 1995. The net interest margin for the third quarter was 3.98% in 1996 and 4.05% in 1995. For the nine month periods, the net interest margin was 4.08% in 1996 and 4.24 % in 1995. Nonperforming Assets Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans which are those loans in a nonaccrual status, loans that have been restructured and loans past due 90 days or more and still - 11 - TrustCo Bank Corp NY Management's Discussion and Analysis -- continued September 30, 1996 accruing interest. Also included in the total of nonperforming assets are foreclosed real estate properties, which are categorized as real estate owned. Impaired loans are defined as those commercial and commercial real estate loans in a nonaccrual status and loans restructured since January 1, 1995, when newly effective accounting standards required changing the identification, measurement and reporting of impaired loans and loans whose terms have been modified in a troubled debt restructuring. The following will describe the nonperforming assets of TrustCo as of September 30, 1996. Nonperforming loans: Total nonperforming loans were $ 11.4 million at September 30, 1996, down from $15.7 million at year end 1995, and down from the $16.7 million at September 30, 1995. Nonaccrual loans were $8.4 million at September 30, 1996, compared to $12.8 million at year end 1995 and $12.8 million at September 30, 1995. At September 30, 1996, there were $4.9 million of residential mortgage loans classified as nonaccrual as compared to $3.5 million at year end 1995, and $3.5 million at September 30, 1995. Loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest were approximately $700 thousand at September 30, 1996, $1.7 million at year end 1995, and $2.7 million at September 30, 1995. Restructured loans amounted to $2.2 million at September 30, 1996, $1.1 million at year end 1995, and $1.2 million at September 30, 1995. Changes in the nonperforming loans since year end 1995 have principally been the transfer of three commercial real estate properties to the category of foreclosed real estate. Management does not anticipate any loss on the disposal of these properties. Total commercial and commercial real estate impaired loans were $3.5 million at September 30, 1996, and together with the newly restructured retail loans of $2.2 million, represent the Company's impaired loans at September 30, 1996. Of the $11.4 million nonperforming loans at September 30, 1996, $5.7 million were identified as being impaired, leaving $5.6 million of loans that were nonperforming retail loan products and commercial loans that were past due more than 90 days and still accruing interest. TrustCo does not consider these to be impaired loans. The average balance of loans identified as impaired during 1996 was $8.4 million and the interest income earned on the loans classified as impaired at September 30, 1996, was approximately $243,000. For the nine months of 1996, charge offs were as follows: Commercial loans $2.6 million Installment credit .7 million Mortgage loans 1.0 million Recoveries for the same period were $2.0 million. - 12 - TrustCo Bank Corp NY Management's Discussion and Analysis -- continued September 30, 1996 Real estate owned: Total real estate owned increased from the year end balance of $3.7 million to $6.6 million at September 30, 1996. Real estate owned at September 30, 1995 was $3.1 million. As noted previously, the increase in the balance outstanding between year end 1995 and September 30, 1996, is the result of three commercial properties being placed in foreclosure during this period. Allowance for loan losses: The balance of the allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that is, in management's judgment, representative of the amount of the risk inherent in the loan portfolio, given past, present and expected future conditions. At September 30, 1996, the allowance for loan losses was $50.9 million, an increase of $2.6 million from the year end 1995 balance of $48.3 million. This allowance represents a reserve coverage of 4.5 times the nonperforming loans at September 30, 1996, compared to 3.1 times coverage at year end 1995 and 2.8 times coverage at September 30, 1995. The provision charged to expense during the year was $4.9 million in 1996, compared to $9.7 million in 1995. Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity TrustCo seeks to obtain favorable sources of funding and to maintain prudent levels of liquid assets in order to satisfy varied liquidity demands. TrustCo's earnings performance and strong capital position enable the Company to raise funds easily in the marketplace and to secure new sources of funding. The Company actively manages its liquidity through target ratios established under its liquidity policies. Continual monitoring of both historical and prospective ratios allows TrustCo to employ strategies necessary to maintain adequate liquidity. Management has also defined various degrees of adverse liquidity situations which could potentially occur, and has prepared appropriate contingent plans should such a situation arise. Noninterest Income Total noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 1996 was $2.4 million compared to $3.6 million in 1995. For 1996 the Company recorded $1.3 million of net securities losses during the third quarter, compared to approximately $141,000 of net securities gains in 1995. Therefore once these securities transactions are eliminated, the 1996 noninterest income was $3.7 million compared to $3.5 million in 1995. Likewise for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, total noninterest income (excluding the effects of net securities transactions) was $10.9 million, compared to $10.3 million in 1995. Noninterest Expenses Total noninterest expense for the third quarter of 1996 was $10.2 million compared to $10.7 million in 1995. The decrease in occupancy expense and the reduced cost of operating and disposing of other real estate were the principal reasons for the overall decrease in noninterest expense during the two time periods. - 13 - TrustCo Bank Corp NY Management's Discussion and Analysis -- continued September 30, 1996 For the first nine months of 1996, noninterest expense amounted to $31.4 million compared to $34.3 million in 1995. Similar to the quarter results, the decrease in total noninterest expense was due principally to a reduction in FDIC insurance expense and expenses associated with other real estate. Income Taxes In the third quarter of 1996 and 1995, TrustCo recognized $ 4.6 million and $3.3 million, respectively, of income tax expense. This resulted in an effective tax rate of 37.9% in 1996 and 33.6% in 1995. For the nine months of 1996, total tax expense was $12.7 million compared to $9.5 million for 1995. Capital Resources Consistent with its long-term goal of operating a sound and profitable financial organization, TrustCo strives to maintain strong capital ratios. New issues of equity securities have not been required since traditionally, most of its capital requirements are met through the capital retention program. Total shareholders' equity at September 30, 1996 was $157.7 million down 1.5% from year end 1995. The change in shareholders' equity between year end 1995 and September 30, 1996 reflects the net income retained in TrustCo (after shareholders' dividend payments) offset by the reduction in the net unrealized appreciation on securities available for sale of $9.7 million. Excluding the effect of the FASB 115 adjustment (mark to market on the available for sale securities), shareholders' equity was $147.7 million at year end 1995 and $155.0 million at September 30, 1996. TrustCo declared dividends of $0.72 per share so far in 1996, compared to $0.64 in 1995. These resulted in a dividend payout ratio of 69.3% in 1996 and 69.4% in 1995. The Company achieved the following ratios as of September 30, 1996 and 1995: September 30, Minimum Regulatory 1996 1995 Guidelines Tier 1 risk adjusted capital 12.96 12.27 4.00 Total risk adjusted capital 14.25 13.55 8.00 In addition, at September 30, 1996 and 1995, the consolidated equity to asset ratio (excluding the mark to market on the securities available for sale) was 6.91% and 6.82%, respectively. - 14 - TrustCo Bank Corp NY Management's Discussion and Analysis STATISTICAL DISCLOSURE I.

Nonaccrual loans are included in loans for this analysis. The average balances of securities available for sale is calculated using amortized costs for these securities. Included in the balance of shareholders' equity is unrealized appreciation, net of tax, in the available for sale portfolio of $1.8 million in 1996 and $3.9 million in 1995.
