Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(1)  GENERAL

     Resource Bankshares Corporation, a Virginia Corporation (the "Company"),
was incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia on February 4,
1998, primarily to serve as a holding company for Resource Bank (the "Bank").

     The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts
of its wholly owned subsidiary, Resource Bank and the Bank's wholly owned
subsidiaries, CW and Company of Virginia and Resource Service Corporation. All
significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

     The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q, and therefore, do not include all
of the disclosures and notes required by generally accepted accounting
principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments in the normal
recurring nature which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
statements included herein have been reflected in the financial statements. The
results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for the full year.

(2)  CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

     For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include
cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits with banks, and federal funds
sold.

(3)  ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

               Changes in the allowance for loan losses are as follows:
               Balance as of January 1, 2001               $3,521
               Provision for loan losses                       45

                                                           ------
               Balance at March 31, 2001                   $3,742
                                                           ======

(4)  NET INCOME PER SHARE


     Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to
common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the
period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if
securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised, converted
into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shares
in the earnings of the entity. The weighted average number of basic shares
outstanding for the

                                       8


three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 were 2,616,543 and 2,555,213,
respectively. The diluted weighted average number of shares for the three months
ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 were 2,800,120 and 2,690,696, respectively.

(5)  COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

     No reclassification adjustment was necessary as no realized gains or losses
were included in net income for the period.

(6)  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     In April 2001, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a $0.12 per
common share dividend to shareholders of record as of April 12, 2001. The
dividend was paid on April 26, 2001.

                                      -9-


(7)  SEGMENT REPORTING

     The Company has one reportable segment, its mortgage banking operations.
This segment originates residential loans and subsequently sells them to
investors. The commercial banking and other banking operations provide a broad
range of lending and deposit services to individual and commercial customers,
including such products as commercial and construction loans, as well as other
business financing arrangements.

     The Company's reportable segment is a strategic business unit that offers
different products and services. It is managed separately because the segment
appeals to different markets and, accordingly, requires different technology and
marketing strategies.

     The mortgage banking segment's most significant revenue and expense are
non-interest income and non-interest expense, respectively. The Company's
segments are reported below for the periods ended March 31, 2001 and March 31,
2000.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
          Results of Operations
          (Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

     In addition to historical information, the following discussion contains
forward looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that
could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those
anticipated. These forward looking statements include, but are not limited to,
the effect of increasing interest rates on the Company's profitability and the
adequacy of the Company's allowance for future loan losses. Several factors,
including the local and national economy and the demand for residential mortgage
loans may adversely affect the Company's ability to achieve the expected
results. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward
looking statements, which reflect management's analysis only as of the date of
this report.

     Resource Bankshares Corporation, a Virginia Corporation (the "Company"),
was incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia on February 4,
1998, primarily to serve as a holding company for Resource Bank (the "Bank").

     Total assets at March 31, 2001 were $443,841, up 9.7% from $404,494 at
December 31, 2000, reflecting growth in securities and loans. The Company
purchased $3,500 of securities during the first three months of 2001, net loans
increased by $6,739, and funds advanced in settlement of mortgage loans
increased by $26,961 during the same period. The principal components of the
Company's assets at the end of the period were $85,019 in securities, $8,866 in
cash and cash equivalents, $42,406 in funds advanced in settlement of mortgage
loans and $291,731 in net loans. The Company's lending activities are a
principal source of income.

     Total liabilities at March 31, 2001 were $423,429, up from $384,822 at
December 31, 2000, with the increase represented by $44,828 (13.6%) growth in
deposits offset by a decrease of $4,546 (12.0%) in borrowed funds. Non-interest
bearing demand deposits decreased $558 or 4.1%, while interest bearing deposits
increased by $45,386 or 14.3%. The Company's deposits are provided by
individuals and businesses located within the communities served as well as the
national market.

     The Bank purchased a commercial mortgage company during the first quarter
of 2001. Atlantic Mortgage & Investment Company ("Atlantic Mortgage") was
purchased from Progress Realty Advisors, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation and
operates as a division of Resource Bank. Atlantic Mortgage specializes in
commercial mortgage originations, placements and servicing primarily along the
Atlantic coast, with offices in Richmond and Chesapeake, Virginia and Raleigh,
North Carolina.

     During the first quarter of 2001 the Bank purchased First Jefferson
Mortgage Corporation ("First Jefferson"), a Virginia based mortgage loan
origination company. First Jefferson's business and operations have been
integrated into Resource Mortgage, a division of Resource Bank. The purchase of
First Jefferson added offices in Fort Lauderdale and Jacksonville, Florida and
Roanoke, Virginia, as well as in the Hampton Roads and Richmond areas. First
Jefferson closed over $250 million mortgage loans in 2000.

     Total stockholders' equity at March 31, 2001 was $20,412, compared to
$19,672 at December 31, 2000. The Company had net income of $950 for the three
months ended March 31, 2001 compared with net income of $794 for the comparable
period in 2000, an increase of 19.7%. This increase is attributable to the
growth in interest bearing assets and increases in mortgage banking income.

                                      -11-


     Profitability as measured by the Company's return on average assets (ROA)
was 0.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2001, down 0.1% from the same
period of 2000. A key indicator of performance, the return on average equity
(ROE) was 19.5% and 19.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively.

     Net interest income represents a principal source of earnings for the
Company. The first component is the loan portfolio. Making sound loans that will
increase the Company's net interest margin is the first priority of management.
The second component is gathering core deposits to match and fund the loan
production. The Company also utilizes national markets to generate deposits and
Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances to fund loan growth either for asset
and liability management purposes or for a less expensive source of funds.

     Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis, before provision for loan
losses, increased to $2,623 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 versus
$2,223 for the same period in 2000, an increase of 18.0%. Average interest
earning assets increased $90,623 from March 31, 2000 to the current period with
the largest increase being the result of significant purchases of higher
yielding investment securities during 2000. The first quarter of 2001 reflects
the impact of this increase in both volume and yield compared to the three month
period ended March 31, 2000. Average interest bearing liabilities increased
$87,395 during the same comparative period. The yield on average interest
earning assets increased 10 basis points to 8.3% at March 31, 2001, compared to
8.2% at March 31, 2000. The rate on interest bearing liabilities increased 30
basis points to 6.0% at March 31, 2001, compared to 5.7% at March 31, 2000.

(1)  Tax equivalent basis. The tax equivalent adjustment to net interest income
     was $127 thousand and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and
     2000, respectively.

(2)  Yield and rate percentages are all computed through the annualization of
     interest income and expenses based on 365 days, divided by average daily
     balances based on amortized cost.

(3)  Non-accrual loans are included in the average loan balances, and income on
     such loans is recognized on a cash basis.

(4)  Consists of funds advanced in settlement of loans.

(5)  Interest spread is the average yield earned on earning assets, less the
     average rate incurred on interest bearing liabilities. (6) Net interest
     margin is net interest income annualized, expressed as a percentage of
     average earning assets.

(6)  Net interest margin is net interest income annuslized, expressed as a
     percentage of average earning assets.

            Non-interest income increased from $2,177 for the three months ended
     March 31, 2000 to $3,018 for the same period in 2001. This increase was
     primarily attributable to increased activity in the Company's mortgage
     banking operations. Mortgage banking made a significant contribution to the
     Company's results in the first three months of 2001. For the three months
     ended March 31, 2001, mortgage banking income increased by 67.2% or $1,013
     to $2,520 versus the same period of 2000. Because of the uncertainty of
     future loan origination volume and the future level of interest rates,
     there can be no assurance that the Company will realize the same level of
     mortgage banking income in future periods. Other non-interest income
     decreased by $172 to $498 for the three months ending March 31, 2001
     compared to the same period in 2000. Service charges increased (70.1%)
     while other non-interest income decreased (60.0%). The gain on sale of
     assets of $291 was due to the full recognition of a deferred gain on the
     sale of a building during the three months ended March 31, 2000.

            For the three months ended March 31, 2001, the Company's non-
     interest expense totaled $4,131 or 30.8% higher than the same period in
     2000. This increase was the result of adding Atlantic Mortgage & Investment
     to the Company's commercial mortgage division and First Jefferson Mortgage
     Corporation to the residential mortgage group. The largest component of
     non-interest expense, salaries and employee benefits, which represents
     65.2% of total non-interest expense, increased 47.0% to $2,695 for the
     three months ended March 31, 2001 over the same period in 2000, and was
     primarily attributed to the aforementioned additions. Occupancy expense
     decreased by 3.1% to $311, depreciation and equipment maintenance increased
     by 10.2% to $248, marketing and business development increased 15.1% to
     $107, and outside computer services decreased by 7.3% to $128 for the three
     months ended March 31, 2001 over the same period in 2000.

            In establishing the allowance for loan losses, management considers
     a number of factors, including loan asset quality, related collateral and
     economic conditions prevailing during the loan's repayment. In its loan
     policies, management emphasizes the borrower's ability to service the debt,
     the borrower's general creditworthiness and the quality of collateral. The
     allowance for loan losses as a percentage of period-end loans was 1.3% and
     1.1% at March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The provisions for loan
     losses were $45 and $100 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and
     2000, respectively.

            While the Company believes it has sufficient allowance for its
     existing portfolio, there can be no assurances that an additional allowance
     for losses on existing loans may not be necessary in the future,
     particularly if the economy worsens.

         Management believes that losses on these assets, if any, will be
minimal, although no assurance can be given in this regard. Loans are generally
placed in nonaccrual status when the collection of principal and interest is 90
days or more past due, unless the obligation is both well-secured and in the
process of collection.

Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity

         Management evaluates interest sensitivity through the use of an
asset/liability management reporting gap model on a quarterly basis and then
formulates strategies regarding asset generation and pricing, funding sources
and pricing, and off-balance sheet commitments in order to decrease sensitivity
risk. These strategies are based on management's outlook regarding interest rate
movements, the state of the regional and national economies and other financial
and business risk factors. In addition, the Company establishes prices for
deposits and loans based on local market conditions and manages its securities
portfolio under policies that take interest risk into account.

         Liquidity represents the institution's ability to meet present and
future financial obligations. Liquid assets include cash, interest bearing
deposits with banks, federal funds sold, investments and loans maturing within
one year. The Company's funding requirements are supplied from a range of
traditional sources, including various types of demand deposits, money market
accounts, certificates of deposit and short-term borrowings. Federal Home Loan
Bank ("FHLB") advances are utilized as funding sources by the Company. At March
31, 2001, there were $30,300 in FHLB advances outstanding. The Company has an
available warehouse line of credit collateralized by first mortgage loans
amounting to $75,000, which expires December 4, 2001. The Company has no reason
to believe this arrangement will not be renewed. The Bank had no outstanding
warehouse advances at March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

         The Company purchased Federal Funds from correspondent institutions in
the amount of $3,000 and $0 at March 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The
Company has unused lines of credit with other correspondent banks of $10,000 and
$3,000.

         Management seeks to ensure adequate liquidity to fund loans and meet
the Company's financial requirements and opportunities. To provide liquidity for
current, ongoing and unanticipated needs, the Company maintains short-term
interest bearing certificates of deposits, federal funds sold, and a

                                      -16-


portfolio of debt securities. The Company also structures and monitors the flow
of funds from debt securities and from maturing loans. Securities are generally
purchased to provide a source of liquidity. Unrealized holding gains and losses
for available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported as a
net amount in a separate component of stockholders' equity until realized.
Securities are composed of governmental or quasi-governmental agencies,
municipal bonds, preferred stocks and bonds of corporations with investment
grade ratings.

         The Company's financial position at March 31, 2001 reflects liquidity
and capital levels that management believes are currently adequate to fund
anticipated future business expansion. Capital ratios are in excess of required
regulatory minimums. The assessment of capital adequacy depends on a number of
factors such as asset quality, liquidity, earnings performance, and changing
competitive conditions and economic forces. The adequacy of the Company's
capital is reviewed by management on an ongoing basis. Management seeks to
maintain a capital structure that will assure an adequate level of capital to
support anticipated asset growth and to absorb potential losses.

         The following table presents the amounts of the Company's interest
sensitive assets and liabilities that mature or reprice in the periods
indicated.

   (1)  Management has determined that interest checking, money market (except
those generated by e-banking) and savings accounts are not sensitive to changes
in related market rates and, therefore, have been placed in the 1-5 years
category.

         The capital adequacy standards are based on an established minimum for
Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital, Risk-Based Capital and the Tier 1 Leverage Ratio. The
following table summarizes regulatory capital ratios for the Company and its
subsidiary at March 31, 2001.

         The Company and the Bank are in full compliance with all relevant
regulatory capital requirements and is categorized by regulatory authorities as
well capitalized.

         The effect of changing prices on financial institutions is typically
different from other industries as the Company's assets and liabilities are
monetary in nature. Interest rates are significantly impacted by inflation, but
neither the timing nor the magnitude of the changes are directly related to
price level indices. Impacts of inflation on interest rates, loan demand and
deposits are reflected in the Company's financial statements. Management
believes that the mortgage banking operations provide somewhat of a natural
interest rate hedge, in that the Company is interest rate sensitive in the six-
month period. When interest rates decline, the Company's earnings will be
negatively impacted in the six-month period but the mortgage operation's volume
should increase. The reverse should occur in rising interest rate markets.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

         Market Risk Management

         The Company's primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk.
Fluctuations in interest rates will impact both the level of interest income and
interest expense and the market value of the Company's interest earning assets
and interest bearing liabilities. There were no material changes in the
Company's market risk management strategy, as stated in the Company's 2000
annual report, during the first three months of 2001.

PART II        OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

       There are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Company is a
party or of which the property of the Company is subject. The Company is party
to certain nonmaterial legal proceedings occurring in the normal course of
business.
