In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly ACNB Corporation's financial position as of March 31, 1998 and 1997 and December 31, 1997 and the results of its operations for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 and changes in financial position for the three months then ended. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The accounting policies followed by the company are set forth in Note A to the company's financial statements in the 1997 ACNB Corporation Annual Report and Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under file no. 0-11783. 2. The book and approximate market value of securities owned at March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997 were as follows: 3/31/98 12/31/97 Amortized Fair Amortized Fair Cost Value Cost Value (000 omitted) U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government Agencies (held to maturity) 32,144 32,488 32,156 32,286 State and Municipal (held to maturity) 789 789 832 832 U.S. Government Agencies (available for sale) 64,791 66,137 51,756 53,074 Other Investments (avail for sale) 2,861 2,861 2,861 2,861 -------- -------- ------- ------- TOTAL $100,585 $102,275 $87,605 $89,053 Income earned on investment securities was as follows: Three Months Ended March 31 --------------------------- 1998 1997 ----- ----- (000 omitted) U.S. Treasury 228 410 U.S. Government Agencies 1,344 1,414 State and Municipal 13 14 Other Investments 45 39 ----- ----- 1,630 1,877 Page 5 3.

Earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares of stock outstanding during each period. Weighted average shares outstanding for the three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 were 5,253,278 and 5,258,537 respectively. 5. Dividends per share were $.19 and $.18 for the three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 respectively. This represented a 57% payout of net income in 1998 and a 53% payout in 1997. 6. The results of operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Page 6 ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Results of Operations The following is management's discussion and analysis of the significant changes in the results of operations, capital resources and liquidity presented in its accompanying consolidated financial statements for ACNB Corporation, a bank holding company (the Corporation), and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Adams County National Bank (the Bank). The Corporation's consolidated financial condition and results of operations consist almost entirely of the Bank's financial condition and results of operations. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Corporation's 1997 Annual Report to Shareholders. Current performance does not guarantee, assure, and is not necessarily indicative of similar performance in the future. In addition to historical information, this Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. From time to time, the Corporation may publish forward-looking statements relating to such matters as anticipated financial performance, business prospects, technological developments, new products, research and development activities and similar matters. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements. In order to comply with the terms of the safe harbor, the Corporation notes that a variety of factors could cause the Corporation's actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the Corporation's forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties that may affect the operations, performance, development and results of the Corporation's business include the following: general economic conditions, including their impact on capital expenditures; business conditions in the banking industry; the regulatory environment; rapidly changing technology and evolving banking industry standards; competitive factors, including increased competition with community, regional and national financial institutions; new service and product offerings by competitors and price pressures; and similar items. Three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to three months ended March 31, 1997 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net Income for the three month period ending March 31, 1998 was $1,766,000, up $60,000 or 4% over the first quarter of 1997. The increase in net income was due primarily to a 4% increase in other income and a 10% decrease in other expenses as discussed below. Net income per share, for the first quarter, was $.34, up $.02 or 6% above the $.32 earned in the comparable period in 1997. An explanation of the factors and trends that caused changes between the two periods, by major earnings category, follows. Total interest income for the first three month period of 1998 was $8,710,000, up $98,000 or 1% above the $8,612,000 earned in the same period of 1997. The $98,000 increase in interest income was due to greater volume of loans. The average yield on earning assets has increased only 2 basis points over the same quarter in 1997. In an effort to manage interest rate risk, the Bank continues to invest in mortgage-backed securities classified as available-for-sale and now holds a total volume of over $56 million. Income from loans during the current period increased due to loan growth of approximately $9.8 million. Total interest expense for the first three month period of 1998 was $3,683,000, up $39,000 or 1% above the $3,644,000 incurred for the same period in 1997. The $39,000 increase in interest expense was due primarily to an increase in the average volume of interest bearing liabilities, which was $1.1 million greater in the current quarter compared to the same quarter in 1997. Page 7 Net interest income after provision for loan losses for the first three month period of 1998 was almost the same as the $4,938,000 earned in the same period of 1997. Income before provision for loan losses was actually greater in 1998, but a $60,000 greater provision reduced it to within $1,000 of 1997. Total non-interest income for the first three month period of 1998 at $470,000, was $18,000 or 4% greater than the same quarter in 1997. This was primarily due to ATM surcharges, which the Company did not levy in 1997, and Visa debit card fees, another service instituted in late 1997. Total non-interest expense for the first three month period of 1998 was $2,769,000, down $76,000 or 2.7% less than the $2,845,000 incurred for the first quarter of 1997. Most of the decrease was in salaries and benefits which were down $81,000 or 2.8%. The provision for income taxes in the first quarter increased $33,000 or 3.9% due to a higher level of pretax earnings. INTEREST RATE SPREAD AND NET YIELD ON EARNING ASSETS Three Months Ended -------------------------- 3/31/98 3/31/97 ------- ------- Rate Rate Earning Assets 7.83% 7.81% Interest Bearing Liabilities 4.07% 4.04% Interest Rate Spread 3.76% 3.77% Net Yield on Earning Assets 4.50% 4.47% Net Yield on Earning Assets is the difference, stated in percentages, between the interest earned on loans and other investments and the interest paid on deposits and other sources of funds. The Net Yield on Earning Assets is one of the best analytical tools available to demonstrate the effect of interest rate changes on the Corporation's earning capacity. The Net Yield on Earning Assets, for the first three months of 1998, was up 3 basis points compared to the same period in 1997. This is a result of improved yields on government securities and a larger volume of earning assets. PROVISION AND RESERVE FOR POSSIBLE LOAN LOSSES Reserve for Possible Loan Losses (In Thousands) Three Months Ended ------------------------- 3/31/98 3/31/97 ------- ------- Balance at Beginning of Period 3,174 3,183 Provision Charged to Expense 90 30 Loans Charged Off 56 50 Recoveries 31 5 Balance at End of Period 3,239 3,168 Page 8 Ratios: Net Charge-offs to: Net Income 1.42% 2.64% Total Loans .01% .01% Reserve for Possible Loan Losses .77% 1.42% Reserve for Possible Loan Losses to: Total Loans .95% .96% The Reserve for Possible Loan Losses at March 31, 1998 was $3,239,000 (.95% of Total Loans), an increase of $71,000 from $3,168,000 (.96% of Total Loans) at the end of the first three months of 1997. Loans past due 90 days and still accruing amounted to $2,006,000 and non-accrual loans totaled $1,371,000 as of March 31, 1998. The ratio of non-performing assets plus other real estate owned to total assets was .80% at March 31, 1998. All properties are carried at the lower of market or book value and are not considered to represent significant threat of loss to the bank. Loans past due 90 days and still accruing were $1,197,000 at year end 1997 while non-accruals stood at $1,640,000. The bulk of the Corporation's real estate loans are in owner occupied dwellings. Management believes that internal loan review procedures will be effective in recognizing and correcting any real estate lending problems that may occur due to current economic conditions. Interest not accrued, due to an average of $1,505,000 in non-accrual loans, was approximately $34,000 for the first three months of 1998. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that a creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due. Impaired loans are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, or as a practical expedient, at the loan's observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. If the measure of the impaired loan is less than its recorded investment a creditor must recognize an impairment by creating, or adjusting, a valuation allowance with a corresponding charge to loan loss expense. The Corporation uses the cash basis method to recognize interest income on loans that are impaired. All of the Corporation's impaired loans were on a non-accrual status for all reported periods. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT Total Shareholders' Equity amounted to $53,405,000 at March 31, 1998 compared to $49,316,000 at March 31, 1997, an increase of $4,089,000 or 8.3% over that period. The ratio of Total Shareholders' Equity to Total Assets was 10.66% at March 31, 1997, 11.27% at December 31, 1997, and 11.18% at March 31, 1998. The total risk-based capital ratio was 19.3% at March 31, 1998. The leverage ratio was 11.44% at March 31, 1998, and 10.67% during the same period in 1997. Capital at ACNB Corporation remains strong even with a 57% dividend payout ratio. See Note #5 to the Corporation's financial statements for information regarding dividends paid during 1998. LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY Management believes that the Corporation's liquidity is adequate. Liquid assets (cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, money market instruments, available for sale securities and held to maturity investment securities maturing within one year) were 21.1% of total assets at March 31, 1998. This mix of assets would be readily available for funding any cash requirements. In addition, the Bank has an approved line of credit of $200,902,000 at the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh with $0 outstanding at March 31, 1998. Page 9 As of March 31, 1998, the cumulative asset sensitive gap was 13.1% of total assets at one month, 10.7% at six months, and 18.0% at one year. Adjustable rate mortgages, which have an annual interest rate cap of 2%, are considered rate sensitive. Passbook savings and NOW accounts are carried in the one to five year category while half of money market deposit accounts are spread over the four to twelve month category and the other half are shown to mature in the one to three year category. There are no known trends or demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in, or that are reasonably likely to result in, liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way. Aside from those matters described above, management does not currently believe that there are any known trends or uncertainties which would have a material impact on future operating results, liquidity or capital resources nor is it aware of any current recommendations by the regulatory authorities which if they were to be implemented would have such an effect, although the general cost of compliance with numerous and multiple federal and state laws and regulation does have and in the future may have a negative impact on the Corporation's results of operations. COMPANY IS IN THE PROCESS OF BECOMING YEAR 2000 COMPLIANT - EXPENSES NOT MATERIAL The Company is in the process of assessing the cost and extent of vulnerability of the Company's computer systems to the "Year 2000 problem". Modifications or replacements of computer systems to attain Year 2000 compliance have begun, and the Company expects to attain Year 2000 compliance and institute appropriate testing of its modifications and replacements before the Year 2000 date change. The Company believes that, with modifications to existing software and conversions to new software, the Year 2000 problem will not pose a significant operational problem for the Company. However, because most computer systems are, by their very nature, interdependent, it is possible that non-compliant third party computers could "reinfect" the Company's computer systems. The Company could be adversely affected by the Year 2000 problem if it or unrelated parties fail to successfully address this problem. The Company has taken steps to communicate with the unrelated parties with whom it deals to coordinate Year 2000 compliance. Most of the costs incurred in addressing the Year 2000 problem are expected to be expenses as incurred, in compliance with GAAP. The financial impact to the Company of Year 2000 compliance has not been and is not anticipated to be material to the Company's financial position or results of operations in any given year. ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK Management monitors and evaluates changes in market conditions on a regular basis. Based upon the most recent review management has determined that there have been no material changes in market risks since year end.
