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 intercompany 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 of a 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, 2002               $3,697
                  Provision for loan losses                       70

(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

                                        7



shares in the earnings of the entity. The weighted average number of basic
shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2002, and 2001 were
3,103,011 and 2,616,543, respectively. The diluted weighted average number of
shares for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 were 3,291,151 and
2,800,120, respectively.

                                        8



(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, 2002 and March 31,
2001.

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

     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").

     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.

     Total assets at March 31, 2002 were $589,957, up 4.4% from $564,850 at
December 31, 2001, reflecting growth in securities and loans. The Company
purchased $36,203 of securities during the first three months of 2002, net loans
increased by $39,822, and funds advanced in settlement of mortgage loans
decreased by $25,743 during the same period. The principal components of the
Company's assets at the end of the period were $129,816 in securities, $5,878 in
cash and cash equivalents, $46,228 in funds advanced in settlement of mortgage
loans and $381,061 in net loans. The Company's lending activities are a
principal source of income.

     Total liabilities at March 31, 2002 were $561,579, up from $536,071 at
December 31, 2001, with the increase represented by $39,808 (38.7%) growth in
borrowed funds offset by a decrease of $13,661 (3.3%) in deposits. Non-interest
bearing demand deposits increased $251 or 1.6%, while interest bearing deposits
decreased by $13,911 or 3.5%. The Company's deposits are provided by individuals
and businesses located within the communities served as well as the national
market.

     Total stockholders' equity at March 31, 2002 was $28,378, compared to
$28,779 at December 31, 2001. The Company had net income of $1,278 for the three
months ended March 31, 2002 compared with net income of $950 for the comparable
period in 2001, an increase of 34.5%. This increase is attributable to the
growth in interest bearing assets and increases in mortgage banking income. The
decrease in total stockholders' equity of $401 from December 31, 2001 to March
31, 2002 was due mainly to an increase in the unrealized depreciation on
securities available for sale of $1,053, which mostly offset the $1,278 in net
income for the first quarter of 2002.

     Profitability as measured by the Company's return on average assets (ROA)
was .91% for the three months ended March 31, 2002, down .02% from the same
period of 2001. A key indicator of performance, the return on average equity
(ROE) was 18.0% and 19.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001,
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.

                                      -10-



     Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis, before provision for loan
losses, increased to $3,283 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 versus
$2,623 for the same period in 2001, an increase of 25.2%. Average interest
earning assets increased $135,216 from March 31, 2001 to the current period
while average interest bearing liabilities increased $133,392 during the same
comparative period. The yield on average interest earning assets decreased 200
basis points to 6.3% at March 31, 2002 as compared to 8.3% at March 31, 2001.

         Non-interest income increased from $3,018 for the three months ended
March 31, 2001 to $5,095 for the same period in 2002. This increase was
primarily attributable to increased activity in the Company's mortgage banking
operations and the result of adding Atlantic Mortgage & Investment to the
Company's commercial mortgage division and First Jefferson Mortgage Corporation
to the residential mortgage group late in the first quarter of 2001. In the
first quarter of 2002, a full three months of income is reflected. For the three
months ended March 31, 2002, mortgage banking income increased by 60.3% or
$1,502 to $3,991 versus the same period of 2001. Mortgage banking made a
significant contribution to the Company's results in the first three months of
2002. 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 increased by $575 to $1,104 for the three months ending
March 31, 2002 compared to the same period in 2001. The increase in the gain on
sale of assets of $169 was due to greater activity in loan sales during the
three months ended March 31, 2002. The gain on sale of securities increased by
$236 while other non-interest income increased by $170.

         For the three months ended March 31, 2002, the Company's non-interest
expense totaled $6,416 or 55.3% higher than the same period in 2001. 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 late in the first quarter of 2001. In the
first quarter of 2002, a full three months of expenses are reflected. The
largest component of non-interest expense, salaries and employee benefits, which
represents 66.4% of total non-interest expense, increased 58.1% to $4,262 for
the three months ended March 31, 2002 over the same period in 2001, and was
primarily attributed to the aforementioned additions. Occupancy expense
increased by 37.9% to $429, depreciation and equipment maintenance increased by
65.4% to $501, marketing and business development increased 42.1% to $152, and
outside computer services increased by 76.6% to $226 for the three months ended
March 31, 2002 over the same period in 2001.

         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 1.0% and 1.3% at March 31, 2002
and 2001, respectively. The provisions for loan losses were $70 and $45 for the
three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, 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,
2002, there was $114,000 in FHLB advances outstanding. The Company has a
warehouse line of credit collateralized by first mortgage loans amounting to
$75,000, which expires February 19, 2003. The Company has no reason to believe
this arrangement will not be renewed. The Bank had no outstanding warehouse
advances at March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

     The Company purchased Federal Funds from correspondent institutions in the
amount of $9,608 and $3,000 at March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The
Company has lines of credit with various correspondent banks totalling $31,000.

     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 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, 2002 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 for a well capitalized institution. 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.

(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
Resource Bank at March 31, 2002.

     The Company and the Bank are in full compliance with all relevant
regulatory capital requirements and are 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. The Company is in an asset sensitive position in the short
term. When interest rates decline, the Company's earnings will be negatively
impacted but the mortgage operation's volume should increase. The reverse should
occur in rising interest rate markets.

Availability of Budgets and Related Financial Information

        On an ongoing basis, the Company's management prepares and updates one
year and five year forward looking budgets and financial plans. This information
is prepared by management for the purpose of assessing current business,
economic and monetary conditions and the likely impact of those conditions on
the Company's future business, results of operations and financial condition.
These budgets and financial plans are used by management to assist with
decisions related to, among other matters, asset and liability management,
capital resource allocation and loan loss projections. Upon prior request, this
budgetary and financial information is available for review by any current or
potential shareholder.

        Any current or potential shareholder that obtains this information from
the Company should be aware that the budgetary and financial data necessarily
includes certain projections with respect to the potential future financial
performance of the Company. The assumptions and estimates underlying the
projections are inherently uncertain and, though considered reasonable by the
Company, are subject to significant business, economic and competitive
uncertainties and contingencies, all of which are difficult to predict and many
of which are beyond the control of the Company. Accordingly, there can be no
assurance that the projected results will be realized. The Company's actual
results in the future will vary from the projected results, and those variations
may be material. In addition, management is not under any obligation to update
its budgets and financial plans, even in the event the assumptions or estimates
underlying the information are shown to be in error.

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 known material changes in the
Company's reported information and market risk management strategy, as stated in
the Company's 2001 annual report, during the first three months of 2002.

PART II    OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

        On March 8, 2002, Cohen & Malad, LLP, an Indianapolis, Indiana law firm
acting as plaintiff, filed a class action complaint in the Circuit/Superior
Court of Marion County, Indiana against the Company and the Bank. The suit
alleges that the mortgage division of the Bank violated the Telephone Consumer
Protection Act by sending unsolicited advertisements by facsimile without
obtaining prior express invitation or permission to send the facsimiles. The
suit seeks certification of a class action to pursue common claims amongst
recipients of unsolicited facsimiles and seeks monetary damages. The Company and
Bank believe that the facsimile allegedly received by the plaintiff was
transmitted by a third party fax service retained by the Bank.

                                      -18-



     As the lawsuit was just received, the Company and the Bank are still in the
process of factually investigating the claims. The Company and the Bank intend
to defend the suit vigorously. In particular, the Company and the Bank intend to
vigorously contest class certification on the grounds that individual issues
surrounding each facsimile precludes class certification. If appropriate, the
Company and the Bank will also vigorously explore possible causes of action
against the fax service provider that transmitted the facsimile allegedly
received by the plaintiff in the lawsuit.
