[JUNIATA VALLEY LETTERHEAD GRAPHIC OMITTED]
Dear Shareholder:
An uncertain economy, a volatile equity market, and an additional short
term interest rate reduction beyond the eleven short-term rate reductions in
2001. Sounds like a repeat of 2001. Frankly, it was. The volatility in the
equity market deepened and an uncertain economy continued to deteriorate. These
factors along with the threat of war continued to cause concern and provide
significant challenges to our industry and your Bank during 2002.
While these factors did indeed cause concern and provide obstacles, they
also afforded us the opportunity to continue to develop our goal of becoming a
one-stop provider of Financial Services.
The year 2002 marked significant financial improvement over 2001 for the
Juniata Valley Financial Corp. A meaningful improvement in net interest income
was the primary driving force which resulted in a net income increase of 8.0% to
$5,015,000 for the year 2002, from $4,642,000 in 2001.
Total assets increased 5.3% to $375,735,000 in 2002 from $356,757,000 in
2001, an increase of $18,978,000. Fueled by the uncertain economy, and the
volatile equity market, deposits increased 5.6% to $322,619,000 from
$305,468,000 an increase of $17,151,000.
Although, as we have indicated, 2002 was a very uncertain year from many
aspects, the Bank was able to achieve a modest loan growth of 3.3%. This
increase brought total loans outstanding to $235,497,000 for 2002 from
$227,998,000 in 2001.
As a result of the growth in loans, deposits, and the improvement in net
interest income, earnings per share increased 9.7% from $1.96 in 2001 to $2.15
in 2002. Dividends paid to our shareholders increased 10% in 2002 to $.88 per
share from $.80 per share in 2001.
The two most commonly used financial measurements in the banking industry
also showed nice increases over 2001. Return on Average Assets (ROAA) improved
from 1.33% in 2001 to 1.37% in 2002, and Return on Average Equity (ROAE)
improved from 10.47% in 2001 to 10.85% in 2002.
As always, we would like to thank you, our shareholders, for your continued
loyalty and support. Further, we want to assure you that the officers, directors
and employees will continue to work diligently to ensure that the Juniata Valley
Financial Corp. continues to be a quality financial institution.
Sincerely,
/s/Francis J. Evanitsky

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
On April 19, 1983, the shareholders of The Juniata Valley Bank (The Bank)
approved a plan of merger and reorganization. The plan was approved by the
various regulatory agencies on June 7, 1983 and the Juniata Valley Financial
Corp., a one bank holding company, registered under the Bank Holding Company Act
of 1956, as amended, was organized. The Bank is the oldest independent
commercial bank in Juniata and Mifflin County having originated under a state
bank charter in 1867.
The Juniata Valley Bank operates twelve branch banking offices, two trust
service offices, and one loan production office. At December 31, 2002, the Bank
had 135 full-time equivalent employees. The Bank is engaged in commercial
banking and trust business as authorized by the Pennsylvania Banking Code of
1965. This includes accepting time and demand deposits, making secured and
unsecured commercial and consumer loans, financing commercial transactions,
making construction and mortgage loans, and administering corporate, pension and
personal trust services. The Bank provides its services to individuals,
corporations, partnerships, associations, municipalities and other governmental
bodies. As of December 31, 2002, the Bank had four offices in Juniata County,
one office in Perry County, six offices in Mifflin County, one office in
Huntingdon County, and a loan production office in Centre County.
In 2002 the Bank celebrated 135 years of continuing service to the Juniata
Valley. In planning for the future and hoping to continue another 135 years, the
Bank is making a significant investment in technology in 2003. Approximately
$600,000 will be spent in the following areas: connecting the branches with a
wide-area network, teller automation and relationship management software. The
wide-area network will allow for faster and secure communications among the
branches. Software updates can be completed from one location creating more
efficiencies. Teller automation and relationship management will allow complete
access to customer history and transactions and make the Bank more efficient by
serving the customer more quickly.
COMPETITION
The Bank's principal market area includes all of Mifflin and Juniata Counties,
and portions of Perry, Huntingdon, Centre, Franklin and Snyder Counties. There
are 14 commercial banks which are headquartered or have branch offices located
within the Bank's market area which the Bank considers its primary competitors.
Of the 14 commercial banks with operations in the Bank's market area, the Bank
ranked third in assets as of December 31, 2002.
Additionally, the Bank has been subjected to competition from non-bank firms,
such as credit unions, brokerage firms, insurance companies, mutual fund
companies, consumer finance and credit card firms, retail and manufacturing
conglomerates, and other firms providing financial services and credit to
customers. Although many non-bank industries now offer services traditionally
provided only by banks, banks are constrained by costly regulations and
time-worn laws to compete effectively against non-bank providers of financial
services. However, the Bank strives to remain competitive with respect to
interest rates, service fees and service quality in order to achieve continued
growth and success in its market. The Bank also continues to develop and
strengthen its strong ties to the communities it serves, relying on the unique
and strong relationship that a community bank has with its customers and
community by providing excellent, personal customer service.
The deposit base of The Juniata Valley Bank is such that the loss of one
depositor or a related group of depositors would not have a dramatically adverse
effect on the Bank's business. In addition, the loan portfolio is very well
diversified, so that one industry or group or related industries does not
comprise a material portion of total loans outstanding. The Bank's business is
not seasonal, nor does it have any risks attendant to foreign sources.
SUPERVISION AND REGULATION
Juniata Valley Financial Corp. operates in a highly regulated industry, and thus
may be affected by changes in state and federal regulations and legislation. As
a registered bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as
amended (the Act), the Corporation is subject to supervision and examination by
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and is required to file
with the Federal Reserve Board quarterly reports and information regarding its
business operations and those of its subsidiary.
The Act requires the Corporation to obtain Federal Reserve approval before:
acquiring more than five percent ownership interest in any class of the voting
securities of any bank; acquiring all or substantially all of the assets of a
bank; or, merging or consolidating with another bank holding company. In
addition, the Act prohibits a bank holding company from acquiring the assets, or
more than five percent of the voting securities, of a bank located in another
state, unless such acquisition is specifically authorized by the statutes of the
state in which the bank is located.
New banking legislation passed in November of 1999, modifies the 43-year old
Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 to permit a Bank Holding Company that owns a
commercial bank to engage in any type of financial activity. The commercial bank
has to be well-capitalized, well-managed and CRA-rated satisfactory or better.
Financial activities include securities, insurance, merchant banking/equity
investment, financial in nature, and complimentary activities.

BUSINESS
SUPERVISION AND REGULATION (CONTINUED)
The deposits of The Juniata Valley Bank are insured by the Bank Insurance Fund
of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Consequently, the Bank is
subject to regulations and reviews under the provisions of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Act, but the primary regulatory body is the Pennsylvania Department of
Banking. The Pennsylvania Department of Banking conducts regular reviews which
have resulted in satisfactory evaluations to date.
In 1991, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Act (FDICIA) was signed into
law. FDICIA established five different levels of capitalization of financial
institutions, with prompt corrective actions and significant operational
restrictions imposed on institutions that are capital deficient. The five
categories are: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized,
significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized.
To be considered well capitalized, an institution must have a total risk-based
capital ratio of at least 10%, a Tier I risk based capital ratio of at least 6%,
a leverage capital ratio of 5% and must not be subject to any order or directive
requiring the institution to improve its capital level. An institution falls
within the adequately capitalized category if it has a total risk-based capital
ratio of at least 8%, a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of at least 4%, and a
leverage capital ratio of at least 4%. Institutions with lower capital levels
are deemed to be undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, or critically
undercapitalized, depending on their actual capital levels.
The following table sets forth the computation of the Bank's regulatory capital
ratios. The Bank exceeded the minimum capital levels of the well capitalized
category. The Corporation's ratios were not materially different from those of
the Bank.

LOAN PORTFOLIO
The highest loan concentration by activity type continues to be the trucking
industry. The percentage of these loans to total loans was approximately four
percent at the latest review. This industry services many other industries and
no potential significant risk is evident.
As with any lending activity, potential risk exists. Loans in the commercial,
financial and industrial category have remained relatively constant as a
percentage of total loans. The Bank prudently evaluates loans in this category
and generally secures such lending with collateral consisting of real and/or
tangible personal property.
All lending is granted on a variable rate basis except consumer loans which are
fixed rate. Consumer loans, consisting of approximately twenty-one percent of
total loans, average a three to four year repayment period and are fixed at such
a rate that rate sensitivity is considered to be limited.
The following table shows the Bank's loan distribution at the end of each of the
last five years:

A loan is generally considered impaired when it is probable the Bank will be
unable to collect all contractual principal and interest payments due in
accordance with the terms of the loan agreement. The accrual of interest is
discontinued when the contractual payment of principal and interest has become
90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectibility
of principal or interest, even though the loan is currently performing. A loan
may remain on accrual status if it is in process of collection and is either
guaranteed or well secured. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid
interest credited to income in the current year is reversed and unpaid interest
accrued in prior years is charged against the allowance for loan losses.
Interest received on nonaccrual loans generally is either applied against
principal or reported as interest income, according to management's judgement as
to the collectibility of principal. Generally, loans are restored to accrual
status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with
the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time and the ultimate
collectibility of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in
doubt.

Ratio of net charge-offs to

The amount charged to operations and the related balance in the allowance for
loan losses is based upon periodic evaluations of the loan portfolio by
management. These evaluations consider several factors including, but not
limited to, general economic conditions, loan portfolio composition, prior loan
loss experience and management's estimate of future potential losses.
Management maintains an allowance for loan losses that it considers adequate
based on the evaluation process that it performs on a quarterly basis. As part
of this process, management considers it appropriate to maintain a portion of
the allowance that is based on credit quality trends, loan volume, current
economic trends and other uncertainties. This portion of the allowance for loan
losses is reflected as the unallocated portion in the table below that indicates
the distribution of the allowance as of the end of each of the last five years.

BUSINESS
SUMMARY OF LOAN LOSS EXPERIENCE (CONTINUED)
While loans secured by real estate mortgages comprise greater than 66% of the
total loan portfolio, historically these accounts have resulted in marginal
loss. Therefore management's evaluation of the loan portfolio indicates a
relatively low allocation of the allowance for this category of loans.
In addition to management's regular reviews, the results of normal examination
of the loan portfolio by representatives of regulatory agencies are also
considered in determining the level at which the allowance should be maintained.
There are no material loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss,
doubtful, substandard or special mention which management expects to impact
future operating results, liquidity or capital resources. Additionally,
management is not aware of any information that would give serious doubt as to
the ability of its borrowers to substantially comply with loan repayment terms.
Highly leveraged transactions (HLTS) generally include loans and commitments
made in connection with recapitalizations, acquisitions and leveraged buyouts,
and result in the borrowers debt-to-total assets ratio exceeding 75%. The Bank
has no loans at December 31, 2002, that qualified as HLTS.

This discussion concerns Juniata Valley Financial Corp. (Corporation) and its
wholly owned subsidiary, The Juniata Valley Bank (Bank). The purpose is to focus
on information concerning the Corporation's financial condition and results of
operations which is not readily apparent from the consolidated financial
statements. In order to obtain a clear understanding of this discussion, the
reader should reference the consolidated financial statements, the notes to the
statements, and other financial information presented in this Annual Report.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONTINUED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following discussion and analysis is intended to assist the reader in
reviewing the financial information presented and should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements and other financial data presented
elsewhere herein.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Disclosure of the Corporation's significant accounting policies is included in
footnotes to the consolidated financial statements under the heading "Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies". Certain of these policies are particularly
sensitive requiring significant judgements, estimates and assumptions to be made
by management. Additional information is contained in Management's Discussion
and Analysis for the most sensitive issues, including the provision and
allowance for loan losses and accounting for stock options.
Management, in determining the allowance for loan losses, makes significant
estimates. Consideration is given to current economic conditions,
diversification of the loan portfolio, delinquency statistics, results of
internal loan reviews, borrowers' perceived financial and managerial strengths,
the adequacy of the underlying collateral, if collateral dependent, or present
value of future cash flows and other relevant factors.
As permitted by SFAS No. 123, the Corporation accounts for stock-based
compensation in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No.
25. Under APB No. 25, no compensation expense is recognized in the income
statement related to any options granted under the Corporation stock option
plans. The pro forma impact to net income and earnings per share that would
occur if compensation expense was recognized, based on the estimated fair value
of the options on the date of the grant, is disclosed in the notes to the
consolidated financial statements. The Corporation intends to continue to
account for stock-based compensation in this manner unless there is more
specific guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or unless a
clear consensus develops in the financial services industry on the application
of accounting methods.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The information contained in this Annual Report contains forward-looking
statements (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), including
without limitation, statements as to the future loan and deposit volumes, the
allowance and provision for possible loan losses, future interest rates and
their effect on the Corporation's financial condition or results of operations,
the classification of the investment portfolio and other statements which are
not historical facts or as to trends or management's intentions, plans, beliefs,
expectations, or opinions. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks
and uncertainties and may be affected by various factors which may cause actual
results to differ materially from those in these forward-looking statements
including without limitation, the effect of economic conditions and related
uncertainties, the effect of interest rates on the Corporation, federal and
state government regulation and competition. Certain of these risks,
uncertainties and other factors are discussed in this Annual Report or on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002, a copy of which may be obtained from
the Corporation upon request without charge.
OVERVIEW
The Corporation functions as a financial intermediary and therefore its
financial condition is analyzed in terms of changes in its sources and uses of
funds. Table 1 presents daily average balances, the dollar change, and
percentage change for the past two years. This table is referenced for the
discussion in this section.
The Corporation's average assets experienced an increase during 2002, reaching
the level of $366,853,000, an increase of $18,522,000 or 5.32% compared to 2001.
From 2000 to 2001 the Corporation experienced an increase in assets of
$13,646,000. The Corporation experienced an increase in average balances of
loans of $9,775,000 or 4.37% from 2001 to 2002. This increase was less than the
increase of $11,218,000 or 5.28% in 2001 over 2000. If there is not enough
borrowers available to loan money to, then a bank needs to use the funds to
invest in interest bearing deposits with other banks, securities, or federal
funds sold. Interest bearing deposits with other banks increased $3,125,000 or
280.52% comparing 2001 to 2002. The increase in 2001 over 2000 was $442,000 or
65.77%. Securities increased $9,465,000 or 10.94% from 2001 to 2002. Securities
decreased in 2001 over 2000 by $12,276,000 or 12.43%. Funds sold declined in
2002 over 2001 by $4,132,000 or 40.35%. This was a decision by management
because of the low rates received on federal funds. Funds sold increased from
2000 to 2001 by $6,670,000 or 186.83%. Overall earning assets increased by
$18,151,000 or 5.69% from 2001 to 2002. The increase was smaller in 2001 over
2000 which was $6,054,000 or 1.94%. Other assets increased in 2001 because of a
$5,000,000 bank-owned life insurance purchase in the first quarter. The cash
surrender value of this instrument is included in non-earning assets and
revenues generated are included in non-interest income.
The Corporation's funding sources increase was due in part to customers exiting
the capital markets and being unsure of where to place their money. This
uncertainty caused core deposits to increase $13,953,000 or 5.21% in 2002 over
2001. The increase in core deposits from 2000 to 2001 was $5,190,000 or 1.98%.
The largest increase was in savings in 2002. This increase was $4,178,000 or
13.39%. Savings deposits increased by $171,000 from 2000 to 2001. Interest
bearing demand increased $3,840,000 or 7.67% in 2002. This increase was on pace
with the increase in 2001 of $3,835,000. Certificates of deposit under $100,000
increased $3,688,000 or 2.46% in 2002. These time deposits actually declined
$612,000 in 2001. In 2002 time deposits over $100,000 grew by $1,652,000 or
5.28%. This growth was much less than the growth experienced in 2001 which
amounted to $6,162,000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[NET INCOME GRAPHIC OMITTED]
Juniata Valley Financial Corp. reported net income for 2002 of $5,015,000 which
was $373,000 or 8.04% more than the $4,642,000 reported in 2001 and $628,000 or
14.32% more than the $4,387,000 reported in 2000. Basic and diluted earnings per
share were $2.15 in 2002. This is an increase of $.19 from 2001 and an increase
of $.34 over 2000. This increase in earnings per share is a result of both
increased income but also a decline in weighted shares outstanding due to the
stock repurchase program.
[RETURN ON AVERAGE EQUITY GRAPHIC OMITTED]
The two most widely recognized performance ratios within the financial services
industry are the return on average equity and return on average assets. The
return on average equity ratio presents the net income to average equity
maintained throughout the year. The return on average equity was 10.85% in 2002
compared to 10.47% in 2001 and 10.42% in 2000.
[RETURN ON AVERAGE ASSETS GRAPHIC OMITTED]
Return on average assets presents the income for the year compared to the
average assets maintained throughout the year. The return on average assets was
1.37% in 2002 compared to 1.33% in 2001 and 1.31% in 2000.
[CASH DIVIDENDS PER SHARE GRAPHIC OMITTED]
The Board of Directors continued to increase the cash dividends paid to
shareholders. On a per share basis $.88 was paid in 2002 up 10.00% from the $.80
paid in 2001 and down 27.27% from the $1.21 paid in 2000. The increase of cash
dividends in 2000 was to help increase the return on equity ratio by returning
cash value to stockholders. The Board of Directors declared a $.45 special
dividend to be paid in the spring of 1999 and 2000. In the spring of 2001 the
Board of Directors declared a 10% stock dividend. Per share data has been
adjusted in prior years to reflect this event.
[ASSETS GRAPHIC OMITTED]
The Corporation had an increase in total assets of $18,978,000 or 5.32% at
December 31, 2002. Assets for the year ended December 31, 2002, were
$375,735,000 compared to assets of $356,757,000 at December 31, 2001.
The Juniata Valley Bank's allowance for loan losses was $2,731,000 in 2002,
$2,526,000 in 2001 and $2,497,000 in 2000. The provision provided in each of
those years was $300,000 in 2002, $240,000 in 2001 and $230,000 in 2000. The
provision was increased in 2002 because of uncertain economic conditions locally
and the increase in the diversification of the loan portfolio. The provision for
loan losses exceeded net charge-offs by 215.79%, 13.74%, and 5.02%, in 2002,
2001 and 2000, respectively. In 2002 net charge-offs were .04% of average loans
outstanding. In 2001 and 2000 net charge-offs were .09% and .10%, respectively,
of average loans outstanding each year.
Other income decreased $180,000 or 8.20% from 2001 to 2002. From 2000 to 2001
the increase was $817,000 or 59.33%. The trust department income decreased
$96,000 in 2002 over 2001. This was a result of a decline in estate settlements.
From 2000 to 2001 the trust department had an increase of $48,000. Customer
service fees increased $61,000 for 2002 compared to 2001, and $76,000 for 2001
compared to 2000. The increases in customer service fees can be attributed to an
increase in volume and not as a result of increased fees. The net realized gains
on sales of securities was a result of a security called at a premium. This
resulted in an $8,000 increase in 2002 over 2001. There were no security sales
or calls of securities at a premium in 2001. Because there were no realized
gains on the sale of securities in 2001, this created a decrease of $5,000 in
2001 over 2000. Income on life insurance increased by $20,000 in 2002 over 2001.
The increase in 2001 over 2000 was $287,000. Income on life insurance is from a
new bank-owned life insurance plan put into place in 2001 that covers Directors'
retirement and key employees that are not covered by another plan. The plan also
offers life insurance for Directors' and key employees. The other income
decreased in 2002 over 2001 by $173,000. The increase in 2001 over 2000 was
$411,000. This increase in 2001 can be attributed to $266,000 in a settlement of
a long-standing litigation process in which the Bank was the plaintiff. If it
were not for this settlement the increase in 2002 over 2001 would have been
$93,000. The Bank experienced an increase of $17,000 in alternative investment
commissions. The increase in 2001 over 2000 was $107,000. ATM surcharge
accounted for a $10,000

increase in 2002 as compared to 2001. There was also an increase of $26,000 in
interchange fees on debit cards. Both increases in 2002 can be attributed to
increased usage as opposed to increased fees. The management of The Juniata
Valley Bank seeks product and service improvements that both strengthen existing
customer relationships and help attract new ones. During 1997, sales of mutual
funds were introduced through a third party joint marketing arrangement with
T.H.E. Financial for those customers desiring this type of alternative
investment. Fee income derived from the sale of this product in 2002 was
$204,000.
In 2002, other expenses increased $528,000 or 6.14% over 2001, compared to an
increase of $412,000 from 2000 to 2001. Salaries and wages increased $255,000
from 2001 to 2002. This compares to a decrease of $72,000 from 2000 to 2001. The
increase in 2002 can be attributed to regular salary increases as opposed to
additional employees. An early retirement option was given and six employees
took advantage of it in September 2000. Employee benefits increased $136,000
from 2001 to 2002. From 2000 to 2001 the Bank experienced a decrease of $67,000.
This was due to price changes of benefits provided as opposed to changed
benefits. Occupancy expense increased by $87,000 in 2002 over 2001. The increase
in 2001 over 2000 was $77,000. These increases can be attributed to the Bank's
new operations' center. Equipment expense decreased $24,000 in 2002. This was
preceded by an increase in 2001 of $229,000. The decline in 2002 is due to
negotiations with the third-party bank service provider of computer processing.
Directors' compensation remained virtually unchanged between 2001 and 2002. The
increase in 2001 over 2000 of $90,000 was a result of the new retirement plan
put in place in 2001. Taxes, other than income is an increase in the
Pennsylvania shares tax of $19,000 in 2002 over 2001 and $20,000 in 2001 over
2000. The $58,000 increase in 2002 over 2001 in other expenses can be attributed
to an increase in outside professional fees. The increase of $135,000 in 2001
over 2000 in other expenses can be attributed to $68,000 paid for outsourcing
the internal audit, compliance, and loan review function, $42,000 increase in
postage, and $25,000 for redesigning the wage and salary administration.
The provision for income taxes for 2002 was $1,746,000 compared to $1,428,000 in
2001 and $1,375,000 in 2000. The effective tax rate, which is the ratio of
income tax expense to income before income taxes, was 25.82% in 2002, an
increase from the 23.53% in 2001 and 23.86% in 2000. The tax rate for all
periods was less than the statutory rate of 34% due to tax exempt securities and
loan income and tax free earnings on the bank-owned life insurance. Please refer
to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements "Income Taxes" for further
analysis of federal income tax expense.
On November 12, 1999, The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act was signed into law. The Act
permits commercial banks to affiliate with investment banks. It permits bank
holding companies to engage in any type of financial activity which includes,
securities, insurance, merchant banking/equity investment, financial in nature,
and complimentary activities. The merchant banking provisions will allow a bank
holding company to make a controlling investment in any kind of company,
financial or commercial. These new powers allow a bank to engage in virtually
every type of activity currently recognized as financial or incidental or
complementary to a financial activity. The commercial bank has to be
well-capitalized, well-managed and CRA rated satisfactory or better. The Act
also allows subsidiaries of banks to engage in a broad range of financial
activities that are not permitted for banks themselves. In light of this new
legislation, The Corporation and The Juniata Valley Bank will evaluate new
financial activities that would complement the products already offered to
enhance non-interest income.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NET INTEREST INCOME
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net interest income is the most significant contributor to the Corporation's net
income. During 2002, net interest income increased 11.48% to $14,171,000
compared to a decrease of .68% from 2000 to 2001. Table 3 shows the interest
income, interest expense and net interest income with the percentage change
between the years. While interest income earned declined due to lower rates,
interest expense declined more.
Table 2 presents average balances, interest income and expense and yields earned
or paid. This table summarizes the components of the net interest income growth.
Interest earning assets increased $18,233,000 or 5.67% in 2002. In 2001 over
2000 there was an increase of $6,053,000. The largest contributor to interest
income is loans. The yield on loans has declined for all three years presented.
From 2001 to 2002 by .81%. From 2000 to 2001 the rate declined .16%. The yield
on taxable securities decreased 1.08% and the yield on tax free securities
increased .12%. In 2001 the yield on taxable securities decreased .26% and tax
free securities decreased .12%. Federal funds sold had a decrease of 2.46% in
2002 over 2001 which was preceded by 4.24% decrease in 2001 over 2000. The
overall yield on these interest earning assets for 2002 was a decrease of .76%.
This followed a decrease of .16% from 2000 to 2001.
Interest bearing liabilities increased $13,474,000 or 5.14% for 2002. There was
an increase of $9,577,000 from 2000 to 2001. Time deposits increased by
$5,340,000 from 2001 to 2002, savings deposits increased by $4,178,000 and
demand deposits bearing interest increased $3,840,000. Rates paid decreased by
1.18% in 2002. There was also a decrease in rates paid from 2000 to 2001 of
..15%.
The Corporation's net spread was 3.54% in 2002 up from the 3.12% in 2001 and the
3.13% in 2000. Interest spread measures the absolute difference between average
rates earned and average rates paid while net interest margin reflects the
relationship of interest income to earning assets versus interest expense to
earning assets. The Corporation's net interest margin was 4.17% for 2002
compared to 3.96% in 2001 and 4.06% in 2000.
From Table 4 it can be seen that the increases in net interest income of
$1,459,000 during 2002 were affected by increases in volume of $925,000 and an
increase in rates of $534,000. Even though rates declined, the rates in interest
bearing assets declined less than the rates in interest bearing liabilities.
Volume increased while rates decreased on interest income which is the same
scenario with interest expense in 2002. Loans added $846,000 in volume but had a
$1,865,000 decrease in rates. Taxable securities had an increase in volume and a
decrease in rate. Interest expense experienced a small increase in volume in all
categories and a decline in rates. The most significant being time deposits.
Rate declines contributed $2,472,000 to the overall change. In 2001 an increase
in net interest income was also due to an increase in volume and a decrease in
rates. Interest income and interest expense had both an increase in volume and
rate.

LOAN PORTFOLIO
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[NET LOANS GRAPHIC OMITTED]
At December 31, 2002, net loans increased $7,499,000 or 3.29% over 2001. This
follows an increase in 2001 over 2000 in net loans of $8,179,000 or 3.72%. The
loan to deposit ratio fluctuated throughout 2002; monthly averages were at a low
in October of 71.0% and a high in February of 73.3%.
Residential mortgages increased by $5,431,000 or 4.55% from 2001 to 2002.
Residential mortgages increased by $5,242,000 from 2000 to 2001. Real estate
loans still remain a very attractive option due to the tax deductibility of
mortgage interest. Commercial real estate loans grew by $809,000 or 2.54% in
2002 over 2001. Commercial real estate loans increased by $3,230,000 from 2000
to 2001. Consumer loans decreased $304,000 or .49% in 2002 over 2001. This
follows a year with a decrease of $1,517,000 in 2001 over 2000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOAN PORTFOLIO (CONTINUED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In spite of the slow economy and increasing credit problems nationwide, the
Corporation continued its excellent chargeoff record (charge-offs, net of
recoveries) during 2002. For the year, the net charge-offs were $95,000 or .04%
of average loans outstanding. This compares with $211,000 or .09% in 2001 and
$219,000 or .10% in 2000. The low net charge-offs in 2002 was due to a recovery
of over $100,000 on a loan previously charged-off. The increase in 2001 and 2000
was due to a growing loan portfolio and not as a result of relaxation of
underwriting standards.
The allowance for loan losses is based upon quarterly loan portfolio reviews by
management and a committee of the Board. The purpose of the review is to assess
loan quality, identify impaired loans, analyze delinquencies, ascertain loan
growth, evaluate potential charge-offs and recoveries and assess general
economic conditions in the market served.
Commercial and real estate loans are rated periodically by loan review
personnel. Consumer and residential real estate loans are generally reviewed in
the aggregate as they are of relative small dollar size and homogeneous in
nature.
In addition to economic conditions, loan portfolio diversification, delinquency,
and historic loss experience, consideration is also given to examinations
performed by the regulatory authorities.
To determine the allowance and corresponding provision, the amount required for
specific allocation is first determined. For all types of commercial and
construction loans, this amount is based upon specific borrower data determined
by reviewing non-performing, delinquent, or potentially troubled credits. In
addition, a general allocation is also determined using the same criteria
applied to the total commercial portfolio excluding those identified for
possible specific allocation. Consumer and residential real estate allowances,
generally are based upon recent chargeoff and delinquency history, other known
trends, and expected losses over the remaining lives of these loans, as well as
the condition of local, regional, and national economies.
As part of the evaluation process, management considers it appropriate to
maintain a portion of the allowance that is based on credit quality trends, loan
volume, current economic trends and other uncertainties. This portion of the
allowance for loan losses is reflected as the unallocated portion.
Determining the level of the allowance for possible loan losses at any given
period is difficult, particularly during deteriorating or uncertain economic
periods. Management must make estimates using assumptions and information which
is often subjective and changing rapidly. The review of the loan portfolio is a
continuing event in light of a changing economy and the dynamics of the banking
and regulatory environment. It is management's opinion that the allowance for
loan losses for 2002 of $2,731,000 or 1.15% of outstanding loans is adequate to
meet any foreseeable loan loss contingency. This is higher than the 1.11% for
2001 and the 1.14% for 2000.
At December 31, 2002 and 2001, total non-performing loans were $763,000 and
$1,745,000, respectively; nonperforming loans as a percentage of the allowance
for loan losses were 27.94% and 69.08%, respectively.
In addition, regulatory authorities, as an integral part of their examinations,
periodically review the allowance for possible loan losses. They may require
additions to allowances based upon their judgements about information available
to them at the time of their examination.
It is the policy of the Corporation not to renegotiate the terms of a loan
simply because of a delinquent status. Rather a loan is transferred to
non-accrual status if it is not well secured and in process of collection and is
delinquent in payment of either principal or interest beyond 90 days. Interest
income received on non-accruing loans was $0 in 2002 and 2001.
Real estate acquired through foreclosure is carried at the lower of the recorded
amount of the loan for which the foreclosed property served as collateral or the
fair market value of the property as determined by a current appraisal less
estimated costs to sell (fair value). Prior to foreclosure, the recorded amount
of the loan is reduced, if necessary, to fair value by charging the allowance
for loan losses. Subsequent to foreclosure, gains or losses on the sale of real
estate acquired through foreclosure are recorded in operating income and any
losses determined as a result of periodic valuations are charged to other
operating expense.
Loans with principal and/or interest delinquent 90 days or more which are still
accruing interest were $544,000 at December 31, 2002, down from the $811,000 at
December 31, 2001. Although the economy has stabilized since September 11, 2001,
there is still uncertainty locally for large employers. This may adversely
affect certain borrowers and may cause additional loans to become past due
beyond 89 days or to be placed on non-accrual status because of uncertainty of
receiving full payments of either principal or interest on these loans.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE RISK MANAGEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The goals of the Corporation's asset/liability management function, are to
ensure adequate liquidity and to maintain an appropriate balance between the
relative rate sensitivity of interest earning assets and interest bearing
liabilities. Liquidity management encompasses the ability to meet ongoing cash
flow requirements of customers, who, as depositors, may want to withdraw funds
or who, as borrowers, need credit availability. Interest rate sensitivity
management attempts to prove stable net interest margins through changing
interest rate environments and thereby achieve consistent growth in net interest
income.
Liquidity management is influenced by several key elements, including asset
quality and the maturity structure of assets and liabilities. The single most
important source of liquidity for the Corporation is a strong, stable core
deposit base. This funding source has exhibited steady growth over the years and
consists of deposits from customers with longstanding relationships. In 2002 the
Corporation funded approximately 76% of its assets with core deposits acquired
in local communities. This core deposit base, combined with stockholders'
equity, funded over 90% of average assets in 2002 and provides a substantial and
highly stable source of liquidity.
Principal sources of asset liquidity are provided by held to maturity securities
maturing in one year or less, available for sale securities, interest bearing
time deposits with banks maturing within one year, and other short term
investments such as federal funds sold and cash and due from banks. At December
31, 2002, these liquid assets amounted to $104,338,000 compared to liquid assets
at December 31, 2001, of $76,472,000. Liquidity is also provided by scheduled
and unscheduled principal repayments of loans.
The financial statements do not reflect various commitments that are made in the
normal course of business, which may involve some liquidity risk. These
commitments consist mainly of unfunded loans and letters of credit made under
the same standards as on-balance sheet instruments. Unused commitments, at
December 31, 2002 totaled $33,719,000. Because these instruments have fixed
maturity dates, and because many of them will expire without being drawn upon,
they do not generally present any significant liquidity risk.
The Corporation joined the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Pittsburgh in August
of 1993 for the purpose of providing short term liquidity when other sources are
unable to fill these needs. The Corporation has a short term line of credit of
$10,000,000. Outstanding balances under this agreement were $0 at December 31,
2002. At December 31, 2001, the amount borrowed was $1,275,000. The Bank has a
maximum borrowing capacity of $127,807,000 with the FHLB which is collateralized
by qualifying assets of the Bank. No amounts were outstanding at December 31,
2002 and 2001.
Liability liquidity, which is more difficult to measure, can be met by
attracting deposits and maintaining the core deposit base. The Corporation's
ability to attract deposits depends primarily on several factors including sales
effort, competitive interest rates, and other conditions which help maintain
consumer confidence in the stability of the financial institution. This
confidence is evaluated by such factors as profitability, capitalization and
overall financial condition.
The Corporation's primary funding requirement is loan demand. From the statement
of cash flows in 2002 loan demand increased by $7,799,000. This was easily
funded by the deposit growth of $17,151,000.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
REGULATORY MATTERS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Juniata Valley Bank is subject to periodic examinations by one or more of
the various regulatory agencies. During 2002 an examination was conducted by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. This examination included, but was not
limited to, procedures designed to review lending practices, credit quality,
liquidity, operations and capital adequacy. No comments were received from this
regulatory body which would have a material effect on the Corporation's
liquidity, capital resources, or operations.
In June of 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement 143,
"Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations," which addresses the financial
accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of
tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. This
statement requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement
obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable
estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are
capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. This
statement will become effective for the Bank on January 1, 2003.
Adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on the
Corporation's financial condition or results of operations.
In July of 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.
146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities", which
nullifies EITF Issue 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee
Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain
Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)". This statement delays recognition of these
costs until liabilities are incurred, rather than at the date of commitment to
the plan, and requires fair value measurement. It does not impact the
recognition of liabilities incurred in connection with a business combination or
the disposal of long-lived assets. The provisions of this statement are
effective for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002, and
are not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation's financial
condition or results of operations.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET RATE RISK
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The operations of the Corporation are subject to risk resulting from interest
rate fluctuations to the extent that there is a difference between the amount of
the Corporation's interest earning assets and the amount of interest bearing
liabilities that are prepaid/withdrawn, mature or re-price in specified periods.
The principal objective of the Bank's asset/liability management activities is
to provide consistently higher levels of net interest income while maintaining
acceptable levels of interest rate and liquidity risk and facilitating the
funding needs of the Corporation. The Corporation utilizes an interest rate
sensitivity model as the primary quantitative tool in measuring the amount of
interest rate risk that is present.
The operations of the Corporation do not subject it to foreign currency exchange
or commodity price risk. Also the Corporation does not utilize interest rate
swaps, caps or other hedging transactions.
The Corporation uses several tools to measure and evaluate interest rate risk.
Table 6 provides information about the Corporation's financial instruments that
are sensitive to changes in interest rates. For securities, loans and deposits,
the table presents principal cash flows and related weighted average interest
rates by maturity dates. The Corporation has no market risk sensitive
instruments entered into for trading purposes.
Another tool for analyzing interest rate risk is financial simulation modeling
which captures the impact of not only changing interest rates but also other
sources of cash flow variability including loan and securities prepayments, loan
repricing, and deposit pricing. Financial simulation modeling forecasts both net
interest income and the economic value of equity. The Corporation regularly
measures the effects of an up or down 200-basis point "rate shock" which is
deemed to represent the outside limits of any reasonably probable movement in
market interest rates during a one-year time frame. As indicated in Table 7, the
financial simulation analysis revealed that projected net interest income over a
one-year time period is positively affected by higher market interest rates,
while the economic value of equity is adversely affected by higher interest
rates. In a lower interest rate environment the opposite is presented. Projected
net interest income is adversely affected by the lower rates and economic value
of equity is favorably affected.
Computations of the projected effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are
based on many assumptions, including relative levels of market interest rates
and loan prepayments. Certain shortcomings are inherent in the computation of
discounted present value and, if key relationships do not unfold as assumed,
actual values may differ from those presented. Further, the computations do not
contemplate certain actions management could undertake in response to changes in
market interest rates.

[STOCKHOLDERS'S EQUITY GRAPHIC OMITTED]
On March 20, 2001, the Board of Directors of the Juniata Valley Financial Corp.
declared a 10% stock dividend to shareholders payable on April 27, 2001. 182,210
shares were issued from treasury stock and 32,320 shares were issued from
authorized and unissued. At this same meeting the Board of Directors authorized
the repurchase of 100,000 shares outstanding of common stock. As of December 31,
2002, 63,312 shares were repurchased with 36,688 shares remaining. Shares are
also reissued for the dividend reinvestment plan as well as the employee stock
purchase plan. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, treasury stock was 59,445 and
21,934 shares, respectively, at a cost of $1,705,000 and $623,000.
The Corporation maintains a strong capital base to take advantage of business
opportunities while ensuring that it has resources to absorb the risks inherent
in the business. The federal banking regulators have established capital
adequacy requirements for banks and bank holding companies by using risk-based
capital framework and by monitoring compliance with minimum leverage guidelines.
These guidelines are based on "risk adjusted" factors, which means assets with
potentially higher credit risk will require more capital backing than assets
with lower credit risk.
The FDIC classified capital into two tiers, referred to as Tier I and Tier II.
Tier I capital consists of common stockholders' equity (excluding the net
unrealized appreciation on securities available for sale), noncumulative and
cumulative (bank holding companies only) perpetual stock, and minority interests
less goodwill. Tier II capital consists of allowance for loan and lease losses,
perpetual preferred stock (not included in Tier I), hybrid capital instruments,
term subordinated debt, and intermediate-term preferred stock. Since December
31, 1992, all banks have been required to meet a minimum ratio of 8.00% and
qualifying total capital to risk adjusted total assets with at least 4% Tier I
capital and 8% of risk-adjusted assets in total capital. As indicated on the
schedule following this discussion, the Tier I risk-based capital ratio was
18.76% and Tier II risk-based capital ratio was 19.93% at December 31, 2002. The
Bank's capital ratios are well above the current minimum ratio requirement set
forth by federal banking regulators.
In addition to risk-based requirements, the Federal Reserve Board has
established minimum leverage guidelines for bank holding companies. For most
banks, the minimum leverage rate is 3% plus an additional cushion of 100 to 200
basis points depending on risk profiles and other factors. As of December 31,
2002, the leverage ratio was 12.04%.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EFFECTS OF INFLATION
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The performance of a bank is affected more by changes in interest rates than by
inflation; therefore, the effect of inflation is normally not as significant as
it is on other businesses and industries. During periods of high inflation, the
money supply usually increases and banks normally experience above average
growth in assets, loans, and deposits. A bank's operating expenses will usually
increase during inflationary times as the price of goods and services increase.
A bank's performance is also affected during recessionary periods. In times of
recession, a bank usually experiences a tightening on its earning assets and on
its profits. A recession is usually an indicator of higher unemployment rates,
which could mean an increase in the number of nonperforming loans because of
continued layoffs and other deterioration of consumers' financial conditions.
It is difficult to predict what will happen in 2003 because of many
uncertainties surrounding the economy. However, The Juniata Valley Bank's
management and Board of Directors are looking forward to meeting the challenges
a changing economy can present. The Juniata Valley Bank's commitment to
providing quality banking services for the communities it serves will continue
through 2003. This community-based strategy gives management the opportunity to
recognize steady growth in our consumer, mortgage, and commercial loans as well
as in our core deposit base. The Bank's strong capital and earnings potential
provide the solid foundation needed to excel in the ever-changing banking
industry. Management feels it is positioned to handle changes in the economic
environment in 2003 through effective asset/liability management. Juniata Valley
Financial Corp. is committed to providing stockholders with an attractive return
on their investment.

JUNIATA VALLEY FINANCIAL CORP. AND ITS WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARY,
THE JUNIATA VALLEY BANK
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of consolidation:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Juniata Valley Financial Corp. (the Corporation), a bank holding company,
and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Juniata Valley Bank (the Bank). All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Nature of operations:
The Bank operates under a state bank charter and provides full banking
services, including trust services. As a state bank, the Bank is subject to
regulation of the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation. The bank holding company (parent company) is
subject to regulation of the Federal Reserve Bank. The area served by the
Bank is principally the counties of Juniata, Mifflin, Perry, Huntingdon,
Centre, Franklin and Snyder, Pennsylvania.
Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Presentation of cash flows:
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include
cash on hand, amounts due from banks, interest bearing demand deposits with
banks and federal funds sold.
Interest bearing time deposits with banks:
Interest bearing deposits with banks consists of certificates of deposits
in other banks with maturities within one year to three years.
Securities:
Securities classified as available for sale are those debt securities that
the Corporation intends to hold for an indefinite period of time, but not
necessarily to maturity. Any decision to sell a security classified as
available for sale would be based on various factors, including significant
movements in interest rates, changes in the maturity mix of the Bank's
assets and liabilities, liquidity needs, regulatory capital considerations
and other similar factors. Securities available for sale are carried at
fair value. Unrealized gains and losses are reported in other comprehensive
income, net of the related deferred tax effect. Realized gains or losses,
determined on the basis of the cost of specific securities sold, are
included in earnings. Premiums and discounts are recognized in interest
income using the interest method over the terms of the securities.
Securities classified as held to maturity are those debt securities the
Corporation has both the intent and ability to hold to maturity regardless
of changes in market conditions, liquidity needs or changes in general
economic conditions. These securities are carried at cost adjusted for
amortization of premium and accretion of discount, computed by the interest
method over their contractual lives.
Management determines the appropriate classification of debt securities at
the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance
sheet date.
Federal law requires a member institution of the Federal Home Loan Bank
system to hold stock of its district Federal Home Loan Bank according to a
predetermined formula. The stock is carried at cost.
Loans receivable:
Loans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold for the
foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are stated at their
outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of unearned discount and an
allowance for loan losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid
principal balance. Unearned discount on discounted loans is amortized to
income over the life of the loans, using the interest method.
- -38-
JUNIATA VALLEY FINANCIAL CORP. AND ITS WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARY,
THE JUNIATA VALLEY BANK
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Loans receivable (continued):
The accrual of interest is generally discontinued when the contractual
payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management
has serious doubts about further collectibility of principal or interest,
even though the loan is currently performing. A loan may remain on accrual
status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or
well secured. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest
credited to income in the current year is reversed and unpaid interest
accrued in prior years is charged against the allowance for loan losses.
Interest received on nonaccrual loans generally is either applied against
principal or reported as interest income, according to management's
judgment as to the collectibility of principal. Generally, loans are
restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has
performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period
of time and the ultimate collectibility of the total contractual principal
and interest is no longer in doubt.
Allowance for loan losses:
The allowance for loan losses is established through provisions for loan
losses charged against income. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged
against the allowance for loan losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any,
are credited to the allowance.
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered adequate
to provide for losses that can be reasonably anticipated. Management's
periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the Bank's
past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio,
adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, the
estimated value of any underlying collateral, composition of the loan
portfolio, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors. This
evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that
may be susceptible to significant change, including the amounts and timing
of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans.
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and
events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the
scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the
contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management
in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value and the
probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when
due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment
shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines
the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case
basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the
loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for
the delay, the borrower's prior payment record and the amount of the
shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is
measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial and construction loans by
either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the
loan's effective interest rate, the loan's obtainable market price or the
fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively
evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Bank does not separately
identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment
disclosures.
Bank premises and equipment:
Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation is computed principally on the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.
Trust assets:
Assets held in a fiduciary capacity are not assets of the Bank or Trust and
are, therefore, not included in the financial statements.
Foreclosed assets:
Foreclosed assets, which are recorded in other assets, include properties
acquired through foreclosure or in full or partial satisfaction of the
related loan. Foreclosed assets are initially recorded at fair value, net
of estimated selling costs, at the date of foreclosure. After foreclosure,
valuations are periodically performed by management and the real estate is
carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less estimated costs
to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation
allowance are included in other expenses.

JUNIATA VALLEY FINANCIAL CORP. AND ITS WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARY,
THE JUNIATA VALLEY BANK
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Income taxes:
Deferred taxes are provided on the liability method whereby deferred tax
assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax
liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary
differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities in the financial statements and their tax basis. Deferred tax
assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of
management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the
deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes for the
effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
The Corporation and its subsidiary file a consolidated federal income tax
return.
Advertising:
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
Off-balance sheet financial instruments:
In the ordinary course of business, the Bank has entered into off-balance
sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit and
letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the balance
sheet when they are funded.
Earnings per common share:
Basic earnings per share represents income available to common shareholders
divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
the period, as adjusted for the stock dividend in 2001. Diluted earnings
per share reflects additional common shares that would have been
outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as
any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance.
Potential common shares that may be issued by the Corporation relate solely
to outstanding stock options and are determined using the treasury method.
For the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, outstanding options
did not have a dilutive impact on earnings per share.
The weighted average number of common shares outstanding was 2,330,390,
2,368,923 and 2,420,966 in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Comprehensive income:
Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses,
and gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in
assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available
for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity
section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are
components of comprehensive income.
The components of other comprehensive income and related tax effects are as
follows:

JUNIATA VALLEY FINANCIAL CORP. AND ITS WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARY,
THE JUNIATA VALLEY BANK
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Reclassifications:
Certain amounts in the 2001 financial statements have been reclassified to
conform with the 2002 presentation format. Such reclassifications had no
impact on the Corporation's net income.
Segment reporting:
The Bank acts as an independent community financial services provider, and
offers traditional banking and related financial services to individual,
business and government customers. Through its branch and automated teller
machine network, the Bank offers a full array of commercial and retail
financial services, including the taking of time, savings and demand
deposits; the making of commercial, consumer and mortgage loans; trust
services and the providing of other financial services.
Management does not separately allocate expenses, including the cost of
funding loan demand, between the commercial, retail and trust operations of
the Bank. As such, discrete financial information is not available and
segment reporting would not be meaningful.
New accounting standards:
In June of 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations." which addresses the
financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the
retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset
retirement costs. This statement requires that the fair value of a
liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in
which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of the fair value can be
made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the
carrying amount of the long-lived asset. This statement will become
effective for the Corporation on January 1, 2003. Adoption of this
statement is not expected to have a material impact on the Corporation's
financial condition or results of operations.
In July of 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal
Activities," which nullifies EITF Issue 94-3, "Liability Recognition for
Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity
(including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." This statement
delays recognition of these costs until liabilities are incurred, rather
than at the date of commitment to the plan, and requires fair value
measurement. It does not impact the recognition of liabilities incurred in
connection with a business combination or the disposal of long-lived
assets. The provisions of this statement are effective for exit or disposal
activities initiated after December 31, 2002 and are not expected to have a
significant impact on the Corporation's financial condition or results of
operations.
RESTRICTIONS ON CASH AND DUE FROM BANK BALANCES
The Bank is required to maintain reserve balances with the Federal Reserve Bank.
The average reserve balances for 2002 and 2001 approximated $4,091,000 and
$3,468,000, respectively.

REGULATORY MATTERS AND STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
The Corporation and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital
requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet the
minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly
additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a
direct material effect on the Corporation's financial statements. Under capital
adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action,
the Corporation and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve
quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet
items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts
and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators
about components, risk weightings and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy
require the maintenance of minimum amounts and ratios (set forth below) of total
and Tier l capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets and
of Tier l capital to average assets. Management believes, as of December 31,
2002, that the Corporation and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements
to which they are subject.
As of December 31, 2002, the most recent notification from the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, Department of Banking categorized the Bank as well capitalized
under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no
conditions or events since that notification that management believes have
changed the Bank's category.
The Bank's actual capital ratios and the minimum ratios required for capital
adequacy purposes and to be well capitalized under the prompt corrective action
provisions are presented below. The Corporation's ratios were not materially
different from those of the Bank.

Certain restrictions exist regarding the ability of the Bank to transfer funds
to the Corporation in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances. At December
31, 2002, $31,980,000 of undistributed earnings of the Bank, included in the
consolidated stockholders' equity, was available for distribution to the
Corporation as dividends without prior regulatory approval.
In August 2000, the Board of Directors adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan and
declared a dividend distribution of one right to purchase a share of the
Corporation's common stock at $23.86 for each share issued and outstanding, upon
the occurrence of certain events, as defined in the Plan. These rights are fully
transferable and expire on August 31, 2010. The rights are not considered
potential common shares for earnings per share purposes because there is no
indication that any event will occur which would cause them to become
exercisable.
The Corporation has a dividend reinvestment and stock purchase plan. Under the
Plan, additional shares of Juniata Valley Financial Corp. may be purchased at
the prevailing market prices with reinvested dividends and voluntary cash
payments. To the extent that shares are not available in the open market, the
Corporation has reserved 100,000 shares of common stock to be issued under the
plan. At December 31, 2002, 59,445 shares were available for issuance under the
Dividend Reinvestment Plan.

Stock option plan:
Under the 2000 Incentive Stock Option Plan, 220,000 shares of common stock,
as adjusted for the 2001 stock dividend, were reserved for issuance upon
the exercise of options granted or available for grant to officers and key
employees of the Corporation. The plan provides that the option price per
share shall not be less than the fair market value of the stock on the day
the option is granted, but in no event less than the par value of such
stock. Options granted are exercisable no earlier than one year after the
grant and expire ten years after the date of the grant.
Stock option transactions under the Plan were as follows:

Options outstanding at December 31, 2002 are exercisable at prices of
$28.20 to $28.50. The weighted-average remaining contractual life of these
options is approximately nine years.
The Corporation accounts for the above stock option plan under the
recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations. No stock-based
employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options
granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value
of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table
illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the
Corporation had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB

2002 and 2001, respectively: risk-free interest rate of 3.8% and 4.7%,
volatility of 0.18 and 0.22, dividend yield of 3.0% and 4.0% and an
expected life of seven years. The fair value of options granted in 2002 and

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK
The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the
normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These
financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and letters of
credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk
in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.
The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other
party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and letters
of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The
Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional
obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.
A summary of the Bank's financial instrument commitments is as follows:
December 31,
2002 2001
---- ----
(In Thousands)
Commitments to grant loans $ 2,897 $ 2,915
Unfunded commitments under lines of credit 30,822 31,230
Outstanding letters of credit 735 765
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Since many
of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total
commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses
and may require payment of a fee. The Bank evaluates each customer's credit
worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed
necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit
evaluation. Collateral held varies but may include personal or commercial real
estate, accounts receivable, inventory and equipment.
Outstanding letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the
Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit
risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that
involved in extending loan facilities to customers.
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
The Bank grants commercial, residential and consumer loans to customers
primarily located in the counties of Juniata, Mifflin, Perry, Huntingdon,
Centre, Franklin and Snyder, Pennsylvania. The concentrations of credit by type
of loan are set forth in the note, "Loans Receivable and Allowance for Loan
Losses". Although the Bank has a diversified loan portfolio, its debtors'
ability to honor their contracts is influenced by the region's economy.

DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the
Corporation's financial instruments; however, there are inherent weaknesses in
any estimation technique. Therefore, the fair value estimates herein are not
necessarily indicative of the amounts the Corporation could have realized in a
sales transaction on the dates indicated. The estimated fair value amounts have
been measured as of their respective year ends and have not been re-evaluated or
updated for purposes of these consolidated financial statements subsequent to
those respective dates. As such, the estimated fair values of these financial
instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than
the amounts reported at each year end.
The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair
value of the entire Corporation since a fair value calculation is only provided
for a limited portion of the Corporation's assets and liabilities. Due to a wide
range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the
estimates, comparisons between the Corporation's disclosures and those of other
companies may not be meaningful. The following methods and assumptions were used
to estimate the fair values of the Corporation's financial instruments at
December 31, 2002 and 2001:
o For cash and due from banks, interest bearing demand deposits in other
banks and federal funds sold, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate
of fair value.
o For interest bearing time deposits with banks, the carrying amount is a
reasonable estimate of fair value.
o For securities, fair values are based on quoted market prices, where
available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based
on quoted market prices of comparable securities.
o For Federal Home Loan Bank stock, the carrying amount is a reasonable
estimate of fair value.
o For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and which entail no
significant changes in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying
values. All commercial loans and substantially all real estate mortgages
are variable rate loans. The fair value of other loans (i.e., consumer
loans and fixed-rate real estate mortgages) are estimated using discounted
cash flow analyses, at interest rates currently offered for loans with
similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality.
o Fair values for demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money market
deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the
reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). Fair values of
fixed-maturity certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted
cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered
on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturity of
deposits.
o For short-term borrowings, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of
fair value.
o For accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable, the carrying
amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
o Fair value of commitments to extend credit is estimated using the fees
currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account
market interest rates, the remaining terms and present credit worthiness of
the counterparties. The fair value of guarantees and letters of credit is
based on fees currently charged for similar agreements.
