NOTE A - Basis of Presentation

The financial information includes the accounts of the Juniata Valley Financial
Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiary, The Juniata Valley Bank.  All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated 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 considered
necessary for fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the
three-month period ended March 31, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1997.  For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
thereto included in Juniata Valley Financial Corp. annual report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1996.




NOTE B - Recently Issued FASB Statements

In 1997, the FASB issued Statement No. 128. "Earnings Per Share" and Statement
No. 129. "Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure".  Both statements
are effective for periods ending after December 15, 1997.  Statement No. 128 is
designed to simplify the computation of earnings per share and will require
disclosure of "basic earnings per share" and, if applicable, "diluted earnings
per share".  Earlier application is not permitted for Statement No. 128 and it
will require restatement of all prior period earnings per share data when
adopted.  The statement is not expected to materially impact the reported
earnings per share of the Corporation.  The adoption of Statement No. 129 will
have no impact on the Corporation.

Management's Discussion and Analysis

Financial Condition:

Total assets of Juniata Valley Financial Corp. reached $216,006,000 as of March
31, an increase of $3,742,000 or 1.76% from December 31, 1996.  An increase of
$2,936,000 in held to matuity securities from December 31, 1996 to March 31,
1997, contributed to this growth in assets as well as an increase in net loans
receivable of $1,679,000.  The cash provided by financing activities of
$2,785,000 and by operating activities of $837,000 for the period ended March
31, 1997, were used to purchase securities which exceeded repayments and
maturities by $2,459,000.  The remaining cash was used for loan growth of
$1,724,000 since the beginning of the year.

There are no material loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss,
doubtful, substandard or special mention which management expects to
significantly impact future operating results, liquidity or capital resources. 
Additionally, management is not aware of any information which would give
serious doubt as to the ability of its borrowers to substantially comply with
their loan repayment terms.  The Corporation's problem loans (i.e., 90 days
past due and restructured loans) were not material for all periods presented.

Management is not aware of any current recommendations of the regulatory
authorities which, if implemented, would have a material effect on the
Corporation's liquidity, capital resources or operations.

A dividend reinvestment plan for stockholders was instituted on January 1,
1996.  The Corporation pays dividends semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of
every year.  Under the plan additional shares of Juniata Valley Financial Corp
may be purchased at market value with reinvested dividends and voluntary cash
payments.  The Corporation has reserved 100,000 shares of common stock for this
plan.  In 1996, 4,087 shares were issued and 95,913 remain unissued.

Results of operations:

Interest income increased $73,000 or 1.86% for the first three months of 1997
compared to 1996.  Interest expense increased $29,000 or 1.55% for the first
three months. These increases in interest income and expense for the first
three months ended March 31, 1997, versus 1996, are reflective of an increase
of both interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and overall
higher rates offered and paid in 1997 versus 1996.  This resulted in an
increase in net interest income of $44,000 or 2.15% for the quarter ended March
31, 1997 versus 1996.

Other income has increased $37,000 or 27.82% for the first three months of
1997.  This was due to $29,000 increase in other income.  A fixed asset owned
by the Bank was sold which resulted in a $14,000 gain.  There was also a
$13,000 increase in insurance fees earned on consumer loans compared to the
same period last year.  There was an increase of $6,000 in customer service
fees.  This was a result of an increase in the volume in accounts as opposed to
an increase in fees.

Other expenses for the first three months increased $31,000 or 2.42%.  The
$20,000 increase in salary and wages for the quater ended March 31, 1997,
compared to 1996, can be attributed to annual merit increases and promotions of
employees.  The $6,000 decrease in employee benefits is a result of lower
benefit costs as opposed to less benefits being provided.  The $18,000 decrease
in occupancy can be attributed to snow removal in 1996 that did not occur in



                                                                             8.

Results of operations continued:


1997.  The $29,000 increase in the other category is due to $15,000 increase in
the marketing budget and $16,000 increase in repossession and loan collection
expenses.

All of these factors combined have contributed to an increase in net income of
$36,000 or 5.45% for the three months ended March 31, 1997.

Liquidity:

The objective of liquidity management is to ensure that sufficient funding is
available, at a reasonable cost, to meet the ongoing operational cash needs of
the Corporation and to take advantage of income producing opportunities as they
arise.  While the desired level of liquidity will vary depending upon a variety
of factors, it is the primary goal of the Corporation to maintain a high level
of liquidity in all economic environments.

Principal sources of asset liquidity are provided by securities maturing in one
year or less, other short-term investments such as Federal Funds sold and cash
and due from banks.  Liability liquidity, which is more difficult to measure,
can be met by attracting deposits and maintaining the core deposit base.  The
Corporation joined the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh in August of 1993
for the purpose of providing short term liquidity when other sources are unable
to fill these needs.

In view of the primary and secondary sources previously mentioned, Management
believes that the Corporation's liquidity is capable of providing the funds
needed to meet loan demand.

Interest rate sensitivity:

Interest rate sensitivity management is the responsibility of the
Asset/Liability Management Committee.  This process involves the development
and implementation of strategies to maximize net interest margin, while
minimizing the earnings risk associated with changing interest rates.  The
traditional gap analysis identifies the maturity and repricing terms of all
assets and liabilities.

As of March 31, 1997, the Corporation had a six-month negative gap of
$11,121,000.  Generally a liability sensitive position indicates that more
liabilities than assets are expected to re-price within the time period and
that falling interest rates could positively affect net interest income while
rising interest rates could negatively affect net interest income.  However,
the traditional analysis does not accurately reflect the Bank's interest rate
sensitivity since the rates on core deposits generally do not change as quickly
as market rates.  Historically net interest income has, in fact, not been
subject to the degree of sensitivity indicated by the traditional analysis at
The Juniata Valley Bank.

     At March 31, 1997, the Corporation exceeds the regulatory requirements
     to be considered a "well capitalized" financial institution.
