Assets at March 31, 2001 totalled $356,090,000 compared to $347,432,000 at 2000
year end. Total deposits increased to $287,858,000 from $284,204,000 at year end
and total loans increased to $262,337,000 from $258,855,000 at year end.

Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 was $843,000 or $.44 per common
share compared to $844,000 or $.44 per common share for the same period in 2000.
Operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 were positively impacted
by an increase in loans of $21,381,000 from the quarter ended March 31, 2000.
The earnings were negatively impacted as a result of a decrease in non-interest
income of $12,000, along with additional loan loss provision of $45,000 compared
to the same period in 2000.

DEPOSITS, LOANS, INVESTMENT SECURITIES, AND STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Total deposits at March 31, 2001 increased $3,654,000 or 1.3 percent from 2000
year end. The liquid deposit category (demand, savings, NOW and money market
deposit accounts) increased $445,000 while the time deposit category increased

available-for-sale. At March 31, 2001, Croghan held $48,756,000 in
available-for-sale securities with a net unrealized gain of $256,000 net of
income taxes. This compares to 2000 year-end holdings of $53,502,000 with a net
unrealized loss of $21,000 net of income taxes. Consistent with the
Corporation's quarterly dividend policy, a dividend of $.21 per share was
declared on March 13, 2001 to be distributed on April 30, 2001.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income, which represents the excess revenue generated from earning
assets over the interest cost of funding those assets, increased $30,000 for the
quarter ended March 31, 2001 compared to the same period in 2000. The net
interest yield (net interest income divided by average earning assets) was 4.56
percent for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 compared to 4.58 percent for the
quarter ended March 31, 2000.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES AND THE ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The following table details factors relating to the provision and allowance for
loan losses for the periods noted:



- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                             Three Months Ended   Twelve Months Ended

                                                 March 31,             December 31,

                                                      (Dollars in thousands)

                                                                   
Provision for loan losses charged to expense      $  120                 $  435
Net loan charge-offs                                  24                    389
Net loan charge-offs as a percent of
         average outstanding net loans               .01%                   .16%
Nonaccrual loans                                  $1,449                 $  628
Loans past due 90 days or more                     1,554                  1,144
Potential problem loans, other than those
   past due 90 days or more, nonaccrual,
   or restructured                                 1,839                  1,602
Allowance for loan losses                          3,338                  3,242
Allowance for loan losses as a
   percent of period-end loans                      1.27%                  1.25%
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The first quarter 2001 provision for loan losses appearing in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income totalled $120,000. This
provision compares to $75,000 expensed in the first quarter of 2000. Actual net
loan charge offs were $24,000 for the first three months of 2001 compared to
$113,000 during the same period in 2000.

Nonaccrual loans totalled $1,449,000 at March 31, 2001, including one credit of
$831,000, compared to $628,000 at December 31, 2000. Loans past due 90 days or
more increased $410,000 and other potential problem loans increased $237,000
from the December 31, 2000 figures. These negative asset quality trends will
continue to be monitored throughout 2001 to ensure adequate provisions are
calculated and expensed. The Corporation's allowance for loan losses as a
percentage of outstanding loans increased to 1.27 percent at March 31, 2001
compared to 1.25 percent at December 31, 2000. It is the Corporation's policy to
maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level to provide for reasonably
foreseeable losses. To accomplish this objective, a loan review process is
conducted by an outside consulting firm, which facilitates the early
identification of problem loans and



                                       8

ensures sound credit decisions. Management considers the allowance at March 31,
2001 to be adequate to provide for losses inherent to the loan portfolio.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

Total non-interest income decreased $12,000 or 2.2 percent for the quarter ended
March 31, 2001. Trust department fee income increased $8,000 between quarterly
periods and service charges on deposit accounts remained unchanged between
comparable quarterly periods.

Other operating income decreased $20,000 or 9.3 percent for the quarter ended
March 31, 2001. The significant component of the decline included a $16,000
(47.1%) reduction in fees generated by the Invest Department, which markets
non-FDIC insured investment products (e.g., mutual funds and annuities).

NON-INTEREST EXPENSES

Total non-interest expenses decreased $32,000 or 1.1 percent for the quarter
ended March 31, 2001 compared to the same period in 2000. Salaries, wages and
employee benefits decreased $10,000 between quarterly periods and net occupancy
expense of bank premises decreased $6,000 between quarterly periods.

Goodwill amortization associated with the August 1, 1996 purchase of Union
Bancshares Corp. was unchanged for the two comparable quarterly periods while
other operating expenses decreased $16,000 or 1.8 percent between quarterly
periods.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX EXPENSE

Federal income tax expense increased $6,000 or 1.4 percent between quarterly
periods due primarily to less tax-exempt income. The Corporation's effective tax
rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 increased to 33.9 percent compared to
33.6 percent for the quarter ended March 31, 2000.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

An average federal funds sold position of $6,761,000 was maintained for the
quarterly period ended March 31, 2001. Short-term borrowings of federal funds
purchased and repurchase agreements averaged $10,950,000 for the quarterly
period.

Borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank totalled $16,000,000 at March 31,
2001 compared to $9,000,000 at December 31, 2000. The additional borrowings were
used to take advantage of lower cost funding alternatives for the increase in
loan demand and the upcoming maturity of Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings.

Capital expenditures for bank premises and equipment totalled $139,000 for the
quarter ended March 31, 2001. This compares to $124,000 for same period in 2000.
The increase was in part due to the replacement or addition of personal
computers. Projected capital expenditures for the remainder of 2001 approximate
$70,000.
