The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any other interim period. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q, and therefore, do not include all information and notes necessary for a fair presentation of financial condition, results of operations and statements of cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated statements and related notes, which are incorporated by reference to the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005. The 2005 comparative Statement of Financial Condition was derived from the audited financial statements. The consolidated financial statements include the Corporation's principle subsidiary, Farmers & Mechanics Bank (the "Bank"). 2-LONG-TERM DEBT Long-Term Debt at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 consisted of $25.8 million of FMS Statutory Trust 1 debentures.

The following discussion and analysis should be read with our financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report on Form 10-Q. The Corporation may from time to time make written or oral "forward-looking statements," including statements contained in the Corporation's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (including this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and the exhibits thereto), in its reports to stockholders and in other communications by the Corporation, which are made in good faith by the Corporation pursuant to the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The discussion and analysis in this report may contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 21A of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainties, such as statements of the Corporation's plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions, that are subject to change based on various important factors (some of which are beyond the Corporation's control). The cautionary statements made in this report should be read as applying to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this report. The following factors, among others, could cause the Corporation's financial performance to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements: the strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which the Corporation conducts operations; the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the board of governors of the federal reserve system, inflation, interest rate, market and monetary fluctuations; the timely development of and acceptance of new products and services of the Corporation and the perceived overall value of these products and services by users, including the features, pricing and quality compared to competitors' products and services; the willingness of users to substitute competitors' products and services for the Corporation's products and services; the success of the Corporation in gaining regulatory approval of its products and services, when required; the impact of changes in financial services laws and regulations (including laws concerning taxes, banking, securities and insurance); technological changes; acquisitions; changes in consumer spending and saving habits; and the success of the Corporation at managing the risks involved in the foregoing. Such risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from any future performance suggested in this report. The Corporation cautions that the foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive. The Corporation undertakes no obligation to release publicly the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date of this report. This caution is made under the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. 7 FINANCIAL CONDITION Total Assets - at March 31, 2006 were $1.2 billion as compared with total assets at December 31, 2005 of $1.2 billion.

At December 31, 2005, borrowings consisted of $175.0 million in securities sold under agreements to repurchase with a weighted average rate of 4.93%. Long-term debt - at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 consisted of $25.8 million of FMS Statutory Trust 1 debentures. The interest rate resets every three months to LIBOR plus 360 basis points and will not exceed 11.00% through March 2007. At March 31, 2006 and 2005, the interest rate was 8.56% and 6.69%, respectively. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS General The earnings of the Corporation depend primarily upon the level of net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on its interest-earning assets such as loans and investments, and the interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits including non-interest checking accounts, long-term debts and borrowings. Net interest income is a function of the interest rate spread, which is the difference between the weighted average yield earned on interest-earning assets and the weighted average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, as well as the average balance of interest-earning assets as compared to interest-bearing liabilities. Net income is also affected by non-interest income, such as gains (losses) on the sale of loans and investments, provision for loan losses and real estate owned, service charges and other fees, and operating expenses, such as: salaries, employee benefits, deposit insurance premiums, depreciation, occupancy and equipment expense and purchased services expense. The Corporation recorded net income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 of $1.3 million, or $.20 diluted earnings per share as compared to $1.7 million, or $.26 diluted earnings per share for the comparable period in 2005. 12 Interest Rate Spread The Bank's interest income is affected by the difference or "interest rate spread" between yields received by the Bank on its interest-earning assets and the interest rates paid by the Bank on its interest-bearing liabilities including non-interest checking accounts. Net interest income is affected by (i) the spread between the yield earned on interest-earning assets and the interest rates paid on interest-bearing savings deposits including non-interest checking accounts and borrowings (liabilities) and (ii) the relative amounts of interest-earning assets versus interest-bearing liabilities. The Bank's interest rate spread varies over time because money fund accounts and other flexible rate accounts have become significant sources of savings deposits. Income from investment securities and mortgage-backed securities depends upon the amount invested during the period and the yields earned on such securities. The yield on loans changes principally as a result of existing mortgage loan repayments, adjustable rate loan adjustments, sales and the interest rates and volume of new mortgage loans. The average yields and rates are derived by dividing income or expense by the average balance of interest-earning assets or interest-bearing liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented. The following table sets forth certain information relating to the Corporation's average balance sheet and reflects the average yield on assets and average rates paid on liabilities for the periods indicated.

Net interest income was $8.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to $9.0 million for the same period in 2005. Provisions for loan losses were $90 thousand for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 and for the same period in 2005. Noninterest income was $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 2005. Total noninterest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 was $7.9 million compared to $7.4 million for the same quarter in 2005. Interest Income Total interest income increased $1.2 million to $15.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 from $14.0 million for the same period in 2005. The increase is attributable to increases in interest income on investment securities of $866 thousand and loans of $604 thousand, partially offset by decreases in interest income on mortgage-backed securities of $254 thousand and interest-bearing deposits of $55 thousand. Interest income on investment securities increased $866 thousand to $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $3.8 million for the same period in 2005. The average balance of investment securities increased $42.8 million to $375.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $332.7 million for the same period in 2005, which resulted in a volume increase in interest income of $486 thousand. The increase in the average volume during this period is due to investment purchases of $221.8 million, partially offset by investment calls and maturities of $107.7 million and principal paydowns of $55.8 million since the first quarter 2005. The average yield of the investment portfolio increased 40 basis points to 4.94% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 from 4.54% for the same period in 2005, which resulted in an interest income increase of $380 thousand due to rate changes. Interest income on loans increased $604 thousand to $6.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $6.2 million for the same period in 2005. The average balance of the loan portfolio increased $27.1 million to $454.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $427.0 million for the same period in 2005, which resulted in a volume increase in interest income of $394 thousand. The increase in the average balance is principally due to loan originations of $128.3 million since the first quarter of 2005, partially offset by principal collected on loans of $99.2 million during this period. The average rate on loans increased 18 basis points to 5.98% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from 5.80% for the same period in 2005, which resulted in an increase in interest income of $210 thousand due to rate changes. Interest income on mortgage-backed securities decreased by $254 thousand to $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $3.7 million for the same period in 2005. The average balance of MBS's decreased $54.1 million to $274.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $329.0 million for the same period in 2005, which resulted in an interest income volume decrease of $612 thousand. The decrease in the average balance during this period was due to principal paydowns of $47.7 million, partially offset by purchases of MBS's of $3.0 million from the first quarter of 2005. The average yield of the MBS portfolio increased 52 basis points to 5.05% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 from 4.53% for the same period in 2005, which resulted in an interest income increase of $358 thousand due to changes in rates. Interest income on interest-bearing deposit investments decreased $55 thousand to $260 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $315 thousand for the same period in 2005. The average balance of interest-bearing deposit investments decreased $30.8 million to $24.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 from $54.9 million for the same period in 2005, which resulted in a volume decrease in interest income of $177 thousand. The average yield of interest-bearing deposit investments increased 201 basis points to 4.31% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from 2.30% for the same period in 2005, which resulted in an increase in interest income of $122 thousand due to rate changes. 15 Interest Expense Total interest expense increased $1.3 million to $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $5.0 million for the same period in 2005. The increases in interest expense on checking deposits, time deposits, long-term debt and money market deposits, were partially offset by decreases in interest expense on borrowings and savings deposits. Interest expense on checking deposits increased $672 thousand to $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $797 thousand for the same period in 2005. The average rate on checking deposits increased 63 basis points to 1.46% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 from 0.83% for the same period in 2005, which resulted in an increase in interest expense of $641 thousand. This increase was due to an increase in the average rate paid on municipal government checking accounts to 4.67% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from 3.03% for the same period in 2005. The average balance of checking deposits increased $15.1 million to $401.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $386.2 million for the same period in 2005, which resulted in a volume increase in interest expense of $31 thousand. Interest expense on time deposits increased $526 thousand to $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $1.0 million for the same period in 2005. The average rate on time deposits increased 97 basis points to 2.94% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 from 1.97% for the same period in 2005, which resulted in a rate increase in interest expense of $516 thousand. The average balance of time deposits increased $2.1 million to $212.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 from $210.5 million for the same period in 2005, which resulted in an increase in interest expense of $10 thousand. Interest expense on long-term debt increased $158 thousand to $567 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $409 thousand for the same period in 2005. The average rate increased 245 basis points to 8.80% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from 6.35% for the same period in 2005, which increased interest expense on long-term debt $158 thousand. Interest expense on money market deposits increased $60 thousand to $344 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $284 thousand for the same period in 2005. The average rate on money market deposits increased 27 basis points to 1.06% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 from 0.79% for the same period in 2005, which resulted in an increase in interest expense of $87 thousand. The average balance of money market deposits decreased $13.9 million to $130.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $144.2 million for the same period in 2005, which resulted in a volume decrease in interest expense of $27 thousand. Interest expense on borrowings decreased $31 thousand to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $2.2 million for the same period in 2005. The average balance of borrowings decreased $15.7 million to $171.6 million at March 31, 2006 from $187.3 million for the same period in 2005, which resulted in a volume decrease in interest expense of $180 thousand. The average rate paid on borrowings increased 35 basis points to 4.95% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 from 4.60% for the same period in 2005, which resulted in an increase in interest expense of $149 thousand due to rate changes. Interest expense on savings deposits decreased $7 thousand to $279 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $286 thousand for the same period in 2005. The average balance of savings deposits decreased $6.5 million to $189.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $196.2 million for the same period in 2005, which resulted in a volume decrease in interest expense of $10 thousand. The average rate on savings deposits increased 1 basis point to 0.59% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 from 0.58% for the same period in 2005, which resulted in an increase in interest expense of $3 thousand. 16 Critical Accounting Estimate-Provision for Loan Losses - A critical accounting estimate is the provision for loan losses. The provision remained constant at $90 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005. At March 31, 2006 the allowance for loan losses amounted to $5.2 million compared to $5.1 million at December 31, 2005. The determination of the allowance level for loan losses is based on management's analysis of the risk characteristics of various types of loans, levels of classified loans, previous loan loss experience, the estimated fair market value of the underlying collateral and current economic conditions. Additionally, the mix within the Bank's portfolio continues to change as the Bank offers a wider variety of products. Within the loan portfolio, a change is also occurring as a shift is made from lower yielding loans (i.e., one-to-four family loans) to higher yielding loans (i.e., commercial real estate mortgages, commercial construction, consumer and commercial business loans). These types of loans contain a higher degree of risk. The Bank will continue to monitor its allowance for loan losses and make future adjustments to the allowance through the provision for loan losses as changing conditions dictate. Although the Bank maintains its allowance for loan losses at a level that it considers to be adequate to provide for the inherent risk of loss in its loan portfolio, there can be no assurance that future losses will not exceed estimated amounts or that additional provisions for loan losses will not be required in future periods due to the higher degree of credit risk which might result from the change in the mix of the loan portfolio or changes in economic conditions. Most of the Bank's lending activity is with customers located within southern New Jersey. Generally, the loans are secured by real estate consisting of single-family residential properties. While this represents a concentration of credit risk, the credit losses arising from this type of lending compare favorably with the Bank's credit loss experience on its portfolio as a whole. The ultimate repayment of these loans is dependent to a certain degree on the local economy and real estate market. Noninterest Income - for the three month period ended March 31, 2006 was $1.4 million compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 2005. The increase from 2005 is primarily due to a new fee structure for retail banking fees, which took effect March 1, 2006. Noninterest Expenses - for the three month period ended March 31, 2006 totaled $7.9 million compared to $7.4 million for the same period in 2005. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits, telecommunications and occupancy and equipment expense. Salaries and Employee Benefits - increased $446 thousand to $4.8 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2006 compared to $4.4 million for the same period in 2005. The increase was primarily due to annual compensation increases and additional staff in back office departments and one new branch opened since the first quarter of 2005. Average full time equivalent employees were 547 at March 31, 2006 as compared to 518 at March 31, 2005.
